So, without further ado, 29 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,279 Speaker 1: here are the names to ad in Week seven for MLB. 30 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: Let's kick things off with Cincinnati Red's third baseman to 31 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: b Christian Andcarnassio and Strand. He has rostered already in 32 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,040 Speaker 1: forty five percent of leagues, and I say to be 33 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 1: because he's still at Triple A. So far at Triple 34 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:38,680 Speaker 1: A this year, he's hitting three seventy one with a 35 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: four hundred obp, a whopping seven forty two slugging, and 36 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: an eleven forty two ops. Those are gaudy numbers and 37 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: they're not coming out of nowhere. If you look back 38 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: at last year between High A and Double A for Cincinnati, 39 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: he had thirty two homers, one hundred and fourteen rubies 40 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 1: hit three oh four with a nine to fifty five ops. 41 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: So really it's just a matter of time. And Carnassio 42 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: Strand did struggle early on in spring with a back 43 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: injury that is behind him and possibly a call up 44 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:08,519 Speaker 1: is in front of him very soon with the way 45 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: prospects have been called up already in Major League Baseball 46 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: so far at an incredible clip in twenty twenty three, 47 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,799 Speaker 1: and Cornassi and Strand is somebody to add now before 48 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: the cost gets too high a few weeks from now. 49 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: Next on the board Angels starting pitcher Chase Silseth, who 50 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: was rostered in just under ten percent of leagues right now, 51 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 1: which is kind of shocking with Jose Suarez going to 52 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 1: the IL and probably a good thing for this rotation 53 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: the way he's pitched this year, Chase Silsleth gets an 54 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 1: opportunity now. He is probably their top pitching prospect right now. 55 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: He turns twenty three actually this coming week, and he's 56 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: locked a point nine zero ERA, a point nine zero 57 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: whip and twenty strikeouts with a sixty point nine percent 58 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 1: ground ball rate in twenty innings through his first four 59 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 1: starts at Triple A this year, so we have to 60 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: understand there's going to be bumps in the road, like 61 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: every young pitcher. But sil Sith has an opportunity here 62 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: with Sar out for the foreseeable future, to kind of 63 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: ingratiate himself into this rotation. The Angels are trying to 64 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,640 Speaker 1: do everything they can to stay in this American League West, 65 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 1: and if syl Seth can contribute early on, he will 66 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: lock in this rotation spot. What's it gonna look like 67 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 1: when we get to August. Let's worry about that in August. 68 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 1: Let's try to win now. So Chase Silts left is 69 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: somebody you should add right now, probably in your keeper 70 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: leagues two, on the off chance he hits the ground 71 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 1: running this coming week. I see London, I see JP 72 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: Franz starting picture of the Houston Astros rostered in under 73 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: thirty percent of leagues currently that I want to add 74 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: to your roster this coming week in Major League Baseball. 75 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: So Jose, your queedie is out until the All Star Break. 76 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: Luis Garcia out for the year with Tommy John surgery, 77 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: which means JP Franz has a real shot in this 78 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 1: rotation until the astros can make a trade for a 79 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 1: guy like Edward Rodriguez or Lance mccullors eventually returns, but 80 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: we can't hold our breath for that to ever happen. 81 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: Maybe it'll be in June. Who knows. When it comes 82 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 1: to mccullors. JP Franz is gonna have at least an 83 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: opportunity to make half a dozen starts here for the 84 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: big league club, if not more. In his debut, he 85 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: threw fifty one of his eighty four pitches for strikes, 86 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: and he was in line for the win before the 87 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: bullpen coughed it up. If you look at the Triple 88 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 1: A numbers for the twenty eight year old, he had 89 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: a two to three three ERA, a one point zero 90 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,599 Speaker 1: five whip, and twenty six k's to eleven walks in 91 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 1: nineteen innings. Is he going to blow people out of 92 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: the water. No, we can to get you some quality 93 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: starts here, especially early on. I think with this offense 94 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 1: around him, the answer is yes. So let's add JP 95 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,479 Speaker 1: France if we need some rotation depth, and I'm pretty 96 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 1: sure we all could use that. All. Hail to the King, 97 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 1: Michael King, New York Yankees reliever rostered in fifty nine 98 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: percent of leagues. Michael King is starting to look like 99 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: an option here at the back end of the bullpen 100 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 1: for the Yankees. Clay Holmes has struggled this season and 101 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,679 Speaker 1: Michael King already is starting to be groooned for shorter 102 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: outings and maybe going back to back, that could mean 103 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 1: at any point you could see an opportunity for King 104 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: to take over for saves when they become available for 105 00:04:56,440 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 1: the New York Yankees, and that would push Holmes value out. Now, well, 106 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: if you have Clay Holmes, I would absolutely be adding 107 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 1: Michael King. But if he just needs saves right now, 108 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: let's start speculating already and see where things go before 109 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,039 Speaker 1: it gets too late and there is a definitive swap, 110 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: because once that happens, we're gonna have to pay three 111 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 1: times as much for Michael King because of the save opportunities. 112 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: So let's get ahead of the game and add Michael 113 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,480 Speaker 1: King now, because so far in the year, he's got 114 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 1: a one point zero whip, a one three five ERA, 115 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 1: twenty four strikeouts in just twenty innings, and just four 116 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: walks with sixteen hits allout. That's what I'm talking about. 117 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: This looks much better than right now what Clay Holmes 118 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:35,039 Speaker 1: is given the Yankees, and Michael King could be king 119 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: in the castle in the ninth ning very soon. Speaking 120 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: of saves, let's try to add Jason Adam before it's 121 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 1: too late. Relief pitcher of the Tampa Bay Rays. He's 122 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: rostered in almost half of league's already. Ever since Peter 123 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 1: Fairbanks went on the ie out with that four arm 124 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 1: injury last week, he was the go to closer guy. 125 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: He recorded four saves in his last five outings, and 126 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 1: he holds a ten to one strike out to walk 127 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: rate during that stretch. Although Fairbanks he is playing catch 128 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: already and could be eligible to return as early as 129 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 1: May sixteenth, We've all seen sometimes these guys rush back 130 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 1: and sometimes they end up right back on the il. 131 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 1: So I would speculatively add Jason Adam anyway, just for 132 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 1: the insurance policy, because you never know if there's another 133 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 1: injury to Fairbanks or something slows his return, in which case, 134 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,479 Speaker 1: even you can get another three or four saves. In 135 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 1: season long rodo leagues, those few saves could be the 136 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 1: difference of you winning a category. So ad Jason Adam 137 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: today and last but not least for week seven in 138 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball waiver wire. Let's add JJ Blede, outfielder 139 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 1: for the Oakland A's. He is rostered in roughly twenty 140 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 1: percent of leagues, and he's come up pretty strong already. 141 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:41,840 Speaker 1: Over his first seven games, he got two home runs 142 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:43,719 Speaker 1: and he's hitting the ball hard all over the place 143 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: with a three seventy five batting average and he's scored 144 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: five runs. Look, the A's have nothing to lose. They 145 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: might as well be playing this guy here in this 146 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: once former top prospect for the Marlins is very divisive 147 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: and a lot of people didn't like JJ blade. I 148 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: actually was a fan of his in college at Vanderbilt, 149 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: and it's clear from the onset that the change of 150 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: scenery has been good for JJ Blaeday at Triple A 151 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: this year, he is hitting three sixteen with a four 152 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 1: to twenty nine OBP and a six forty three slugging 153 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: percentage and one thousand and seventy two ops with seven 154 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: homers and nineteen RBI. Now, we'll take it with a 155 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: small grain of salt, because yes, it is the PCL, 156 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: and yes those numbers do get inflated. Also, we can't 157 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: forget in sixty five games last year for the Marlins, 158 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: he was terrible. He hit under two hundred and a 159 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: one to sixty seven batting average in a five eighty 160 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 1: six ops. That's gross. Perhaps the A's have figured something 161 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: out here and this year they're getting him on the 162 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: right track again. Playing time should not be an issue 163 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: when it comes to JJ Bladay, and as long as 164 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: he continues to make strong contact and flash some of 165 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: his power, he is going to find every day at bats, 166 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: especially with Ramon Loriano on the shelf.
