WEBVTT - MLB: Leading Off September 6th, 2022 (Ep. 589) 0:00:15.560 --> 0:00:18.480 Leading off starts right now, right here on Fantasy Pros 0:00:18.680 --> 0:00:22.000 and I am the Welsh Chris Welsh joined today by 0:00:22.120 --> 0:00:24.560 Casey Bubba. We're in the house. You could find him 0:00:24.560 --> 0:00:26.600 on Twitter at beating in Trick and Bubba. I don't 0:00:26.600 --> 0:00:28.760 know if you knew this. Hope everybody had a great 0:00:28.840 --> 0:00:30.360 labor day. Do you have a great labor day? By 0:00:30.360 --> 0:00:31.720 the way, and you probably knew if he had a 0:00:31.720 --> 0:00:33.160 great labor day, but did you have a good one? 0:00:33.479 --> 0:00:35.559 Yeah? I did a lot of driving, so no, but 0:00:35.920 --> 0:00:38.400 it's it's and it's hotter than Hades out here in 0:00:38.400 --> 0:00:40.800 California right now, so it's it's been a rough rough. 0:00:40.640 --> 0:00:44.040 Goalie Arizona waves high to California. But it's not that 0:00:44.120 --> 0:00:46.760 much different. But hopefully you guys all had a great 0:00:46.840 --> 0:00:49.879 labor day. I was sitting here ready to go and 0:00:49.880 --> 0:00:53.200 do a show yesterday. I didn't even realize there was miscommunication. 0:00:53.600 --> 0:00:55.240 And it was funny. I had a back and forth 0:00:55.320 --> 0:00:57.720 with Wonky. We were laughing or I was laughing. 0:00:57.800 --> 0:01:00.240 There was just she was just like terrified of whatever 0:01:00.360 --> 0:01:02.800 I was talking about. That I was setting up and 0:01:02.840 --> 0:01:05.160 prepping and ready, and that because there were no stats 0:01:05.160 --> 0:01:05.840 done or anything. 0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:07.240 There was no show made. 0:01:07.360 --> 0:01:07.600 It was. 0:01:07.760 --> 0:01:09.559 It was a funny moment. But I just want everyone 0:01:09.560 --> 0:01:10.039 to know I. 0:01:09.959 --> 0:01:12.200 Was here for you yesterday. But I was here for 0:01:12.240 --> 0:01:15.320 you in spirit. Maybe we all just needed to enjoy 0:01:15.360 --> 0:01:17.440 a little bit of time. I'm just a wonky. I 0:01:17.560 --> 0:01:19.800 just I'm out here. I'm out here ready to talk 0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:23.120 baseball every single day. Holidays be damned. I'm ready to 0:01:23.120 --> 0:01:24.560 do it, and I'm ready to do it today with 0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:25.520 all of you guys. 0:01:25.280 --> 0:01:26.000 As is Bubba. 0:01:26.240 --> 0:01:29.759 We've got some bets, we've got stats, we've got some questions, 0:01:29.840 --> 0:01:33.520 and we have Aaron Judge. We have Aaron Judge hitting 0:01:33.560 --> 0:01:37.240 number fifty four. And something interesting happened as well in 0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:41.240 the betting market, Bubba is. If you only paid attention 0:01:41.280 --> 0:01:44.880 to Twitter, you would think that this race is similar 0:01:44.920 --> 0:01:47.040 to like Michael Harris Spencer Strider for Rookie of the 0:01:47.080 --> 0:01:48.600 Year between Otani and Judge. 0:01:48.880 --> 0:01:52.240 You would think by kind of like the US. 0:01:52.280 --> 0:01:55.200 Our contemporaries that are sitting out there are like, how 0:01:55.200 --> 0:01:57.880 do we not vote Judge? How is Judge not blah 0:01:57.880 --> 0:02:01.000 blah blah blah blah all that, But the betting market 0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:05.800 does not follow what the internet sentiment is. Yesterday, as 0:02:05.840 --> 0:02:07.920 I was prepping for the show that didn't happen. I 0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:10.480 went and just took a look, and the betting market 0:02:10.480 --> 0:02:13.960 had already moved Judge to plus one thousand and Otani 0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:16.280 was minus five fifty. It's the biggest gap I think 0:02:16.280 --> 0:02:19.320 we've seen, and I think it's worse odds than Atani 0:02:19.360 --> 0:02:22.440 had in the preseason for it. Now, yet he's closing 0:02:22.480 --> 0:02:25.840 in a two hund strikeouts. He's at thirty homers. Judge 0:02:25.919 --> 0:02:29.000 hits a homer yesterday. In one day, the market moved 0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:32.400 even more plus twelve hundred. Now, this is according to 0:02:32.480 --> 0:02:36.880 DraftKings on Judge and Otani moved further away at six hundred. 0:02:36.919 --> 0:02:39.160 So it's been kind of a long standing conversation we've 0:02:39.200 --> 0:02:44.120 had throughout the year. But you know, we all are impressed, 0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:47.000 and we all love two hundred strikeouts plus thirty homers, 0:02:47.440 --> 0:02:50.560 but Bubba, the betting market will not Budge, will not 0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:53.200 move and does not like does not look like it 0:02:53.280 --> 0:02:57.960 will falter. One instance, with the Aaron Judge stuff, Aaron 0:02:58.040 --> 0:03:00.560 Judge is gonna win this according to the betting market, 0:03:00.680 --> 0:03:06.040 and one day can change the odds by like twenty percent, 0:03:06.240 --> 0:03:07.239 as it did yesterday. 0:03:07.760 --> 0:03:11.120 So Judge's minus six hundred right now and Otani's. 0:03:10.600 --> 0:03:13.240 Plus minus twelve hundred. I'm sorry if if I might 0:03:13.240 --> 0:03:16.760 Eve incorrectly said that Judge's minus twelve hundred. 0:03:16.600 --> 0:03:18.360 Okay, and Alton's plus six hundred. 0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:21.959 He was minus one thousand, Yes, judging, gotcha. One Homer 0:03:22.000 --> 0:03:25.639 moved him to minus twelve hundred. Otani is now who 0:03:25.639 --> 0:03:27.760 went from my plus five point fifty to. 0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:30.200 Plus six plus six Okay? Yeah, no, that sounds about right, 0:03:30.240 --> 0:03:32.600 because it's it's been weird. I've always been timo TWI. 0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:34.800 I've also said I get it if Judge gets what 0:03:34.840 --> 0:03:37.440 he's doing right now is unconscious, it's crazy to what 0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:40.400 he's doing offensively. But it's just a unicorn and we're 0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:43.480 seeing the offensive skills, the pitching skills. I don't see 0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:45.920 the gap being that large, so I just keep putting 0:03:45.920 --> 0:03:48.120 money on a Tani. But it does look like it's 0:03:48.200 --> 0:03:49.680 leaning Judge's way. And there was a lot of great 0:03:49.760 --> 0:03:51.640 arguments for Judge on Twitter last night. I got and 0:03:51.640 --> 0:03:53.640 you can't argue it. It's been amazing what he's doing. 0:03:54.120 --> 0:03:55.880 I really got a hard time with this too. 0:03:55.920 --> 0:03:58.160 This might be I don't know what you make of 0:03:58.200 --> 0:04:00.280 it and what we can have a conversation and we 0:04:00.280 --> 0:04:03.160 we'd love to have a conversation with like something from 0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:05.880 bet MGM or something like what are we doing here 0:04:06.360 --> 0:04:09.120 that we have such as the biggest fans I mean 0:04:09.160 --> 0:04:12.440 literally in the chat, like Gokard's like still gotta be Otani. 0:04:12.480 --> 0:04:15.960 I think Wonky thinks this is dumb. Like what Otani 0:04:16.120 --> 0:04:18.400 is doing, what be it fantasy or not? 0:04:19.120 --> 0:04:19.920 Is special. 0:04:20.240 --> 0:04:22.960 He's probably gonna put up a thirty five to fifteen season, 0:04:23.120 --> 0:04:24.320 closing one hundred hundred. 0:04:24.320 --> 0:04:27.200 He's at two hundred and seventy two seventy batting average 0:04:27.320 --> 0:04:29.600 while also striking out two hundred. 0:04:29.680 --> 0:04:33.320 I mean, he's a cy young contender and an MVP contender. 0:04:33.640 --> 0:04:36.120 Yet it's not enough for a guy that's hit might 0:04:36.200 --> 0:04:39.880 hit sixty homers. Like it's just I'm so unimpressed by 0:04:39.960 --> 0:04:44.560 sixty homers comparatively, and I don't know how else to 0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:47.040 talk about it. But like, if you come in here 0:04:47.760 --> 0:04:51.200 into this chat, you would think these odds are break even. 0:04:51.520 --> 0:04:54.320 But you start to get into the room of probably 0:04:54.440 --> 0:04:57.320 sports writers, you know, probably not crazy to think that 0:04:57.440 --> 0:05:00.440 these books have a handful of sports writers under their 0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:03.240 tail and doing you know, a little surveys and stuff 0:05:03.320 --> 0:05:07.720 like that that the bookies and sports riders are so 0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:11.040 firmly Judge it's incomprehensible. 0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:13.560 Yeah, and it makes a lot of sense in that regard. 0:05:13.640 --> 0:05:15.320 And you know, some people made some good points. So 0:05:15.360 --> 0:05:17.720 some of them were writers that Judge is doing this 0:05:17.880 --> 0:05:19.800 right now with the dead baseballs that we've been seeing 0:05:19.960 --> 0:05:22.200 that you look at the Yankees offense as a whole 0:05:22.200 --> 0:05:24.080 over the last month, like outside of Judge are hitting 0:05:24.080 --> 0:05:26.720 blow two hundred like they've been dreadful. They moved Judge 0:05:26.800 --> 0:05:29.320 the leadoff spot just because he continues to rake. It's 0:05:29.800 --> 0:05:31.919 it's crazy what he's doing. It's got a Barry Bonds 0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:33.720 esque feel. It's like, what do you get? You can't 0:05:33.720 --> 0:05:36.880 pitch to him because he's just crushing everything. And I 0:05:36.960 --> 0:05:38.960 also do respect, like we talked about last time, how 0:05:39.240 --> 0:05:41.480 he said the record is seventy three, Like that's what 0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:44.120 he flat out said. So I respect that coming from Judge. 0:05:44.200 --> 0:05:47.960 So it's it's excuse me, I'm allergic to this conversation. 0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:51.160 It's it is. It is an interesting one, to say 0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:52.360 the least, and it's one it's going to go on 0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:53.880 and on and on and on, and you can't go 0:05:53.960 --> 0:05:55.919 wrong with either one. What we need is the NFL. 0:05:56.040 --> 0:05:58.880 We have an offensive MVP and an overall MVP. That's 0:05:58.960 --> 0:05:59.440 what we need. 0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:01.000 Yeah, something like that. 0:06:01.160 --> 0:06:03.520 Well, I mean they have like an offensive like I 0:06:03.600 --> 0:06:06.160 think they like I say, they sparse out they try 0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:08.680 to sparse out some of those. My problem is Walkee 0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:11.760 said something really interesting where she said, you know, if 0:06:12.160 --> 0:06:14.520 Judge was not a Yankee, but I've seen the inverse 0:06:15.279 --> 0:06:16.720 or it just switched up a little bit. That I 0:06:16.800 --> 0:06:19.520 think is even more is if Otani were a Yankee 0:06:19.640 --> 0:06:21.880 and Judge were an Angel, I don't even think we 0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:24.440 would be having remotely this conversation. I think you would 0:06:24.480 --> 0:06:28.200 have Yankee writers left and right debating how can we 0:06:28.320 --> 0:06:31.039 have this conversation when Otani is doing what he's doing. 0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:33.160 It's just I would love the I want to hear 0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:37.520 the rationale of how Judge can be minus twelve hundred 0:06:37.600 --> 0:06:40.560 when Atani's doing was doing. What is the rationale that 0:06:40.960 --> 0:06:44.880 what Otani has done overall? Even though you've also had 0:06:44.920 --> 0:06:46.880 Baseball like come out and kind of talk about how 0:06:47.360 --> 0:06:50.000 you know that this award it doesn't have to be 0:06:50.040 --> 0:06:51.000 someone who makes the playoffs. 0:06:51.000 --> 0:06:51.960 It's the most valuable team. 0:06:51.960 --> 0:06:54.039 Imagine what this Angels team would be without two hundred 0:06:54.040 --> 0:06:57.560 strikeouts and thirty homers. It's just it's a I know 0:06:57.680 --> 0:06:59.840 it's a lot that we've talked about, but it kind 0:06:59.880 --> 0:07:02.760 of hit ahead where it's moving so far, literally one 0:07:02.960 --> 0:07:07.200 day from one thousand to twelve hundred, because he hit one. 0:07:07.200 --> 0:07:07.919 Home run. 0:07:09.320 --> 0:07:12.400 To hit two homers, hit two great point. He hit 0:07:12.480 --> 0:07:16.520 two homers. That's a great point. Oh Tani hit two 0:07:16.760 --> 0:07:19.680 homers and still lost lost ground. 0:07:20.200 --> 0:07:21.640 He lost the two hundred, and. 0:07:21.880 --> 0:07:23.600 I don't understand. I don't understand it. Like you know, 0:07:23.680 --> 0:07:25.800 the books are smart, so they're getting intel from somewhere, 0:07:25.920 --> 0:07:27.920 like they're getting like somehow the guys are saying, this 0:07:28.040 --> 0:07:29.480 is my vote, like if you want to start like 0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:32.800 something's happening or or it's just everyone's putting money on 0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:35.600 Judge and they don't want they have leveraging themselves. Who knows, 0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:39.640 but it's it's crazy to imagine that the gap is 0:07:39.720 --> 0:07:41.360 so large, like you've been saying, because I don't care 0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:43.640 who wins it because both are so deserving. To me, 0:07:43.720 --> 0:07:45.840 it's a tawny just because it's like a unicorn. But 0:07:47.080 --> 0:07:48.960 at least have the odds pretty close because they're not 0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:51.080 that far apart. That's what's like you're saying and it's 0:07:51.120 --> 0:07:51.600 so crazy. 0:07:52.080 --> 0:07:54.960 Yeah, yeah, I think I think I'm becoming more infatuated 0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:57.400 with the gap that's happening than anything else. At the 0:07:57.480 --> 0:07:59.320 end of the day, whatever, you know, you want to 0:07:59.480 --> 0:08:01.680 writers to give it to judge because a Tani won 0:08:01.760 --> 0:08:02.360 it last year. 0:08:02.760 --> 0:08:03.760 That sounds like a rider. 0:08:03.880 --> 0:08:05.840 To me, that sounds exactly like a rider, Like, well, 0:08:05.880 --> 0:08:08.720 you did it last year, and you know he yes, he's. 0:08:08.680 --> 0:08:10.240 Repeating a lot of what he did last year, but 0:08:10.280 --> 0:08:12.160 we gotta go do something. This is really impressive. 0:08:12.200 --> 0:08:14.040 It's like, no, what Atani's doing is impressive, and you're 0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:18.160 taking for granted, like you're literally sitting there taking for 0:08:18.240 --> 0:08:21.000 granted this amazing, incredible thing that's happening because it happened 0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:21.600 once before. 0:08:21.840 --> 0:08:24.280 And if anything, his hitting has come down a little 0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:26.560 bit offul last year, but his pitching is getting better, 0:08:26.720 --> 0:08:28.720 and it's just like, all right, what are we doing here. 0:08:29.040 --> 0:08:30.040 Let's see Alva. 0:08:30.400 --> 0:08:32.240 Let's he Judge throw a ninety eight mile an hour, 0:08:32.360 --> 0:08:34.040 Let's see him throw a hundred mile an hour sinker. 0:08:34.320 --> 0:08:37.120 And it just not that that matters. But the market 0:08:37.200 --> 0:08:40.720 is getting weird and wild. Another piece of headline news. 0:08:41.160 --> 0:08:44.720 If you have Wanderfranco and you're banking on him helping 0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:47.719 you on a playoff run, Maybe go somewhere else and 0:08:47.760 --> 0:08:52.480 start thinking differently. Because Wanderfranco for the second time, had 0:08:52.520 --> 0:08:56.480 to rehab start cut short on Monday. He was feeling 0:08:56.520 --> 0:08:59.160 some discomfort in his right hand. He's been on the 0:08:59.280 --> 0:09:02.680 il since July tenth, and he's had a hamletbone injury, 0:09:02.720 --> 0:09:03.599 which we already. 0:09:03.400 --> 0:09:05.679 Know that is a huge fear for power. 0:09:06.440 --> 0:09:08.199 He did start the game in triple A on Monday, 0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:11.320 and he was expected to play seven innings at shortstop, 0:09:11.400 --> 0:09:13.120 but he came out of the fifth because he was 0:09:13.120 --> 0:09:14.319 starting to experience some of that. 0:09:14.880 --> 0:09:16.559 And I think you're getting back to the point of 0:09:16.760 --> 0:09:17.319 starting over. 0:09:17.400 --> 0:09:19.400 I mean, obviously the Rais want to play for something, 0:09:19.960 --> 0:09:22.079 but I don't know if it's going to be with 0:09:22.240 --> 0:09:25.400 wander Franco. Bubba, what is the likelihood you think I've 0:09:25.400 --> 0:09:27.559 got wander Fronk. I got a playoff team that has 0:09:27.640 --> 0:09:28.280 wander Franco. 0:09:28.520 --> 0:09:29.360 I could use him. 0:09:29.679 --> 0:09:31.840 This was the first round of the playoffs this week, 0:09:31.960 --> 0:09:33.440 and I was thinking I was going to get him 0:09:33.440 --> 0:09:35.640 a little bit later, and my bench could have even 0:09:35.760 --> 0:09:37.680 used just a little bit more of a boost because 0:09:37.720 --> 0:09:39.440 my starting ladup is really good to keep it league. 0:09:39.840 --> 0:09:41.920 But do you have any hopes that. 0:09:42.080 --> 0:09:44.679 We're going to get anything from Franco between the hamlet 0:09:44.920 --> 0:09:48.600 and two pushbacks on his rehab stands. 0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:51.599 No, I'm not optimistic at all. I was. I was 0:09:51.679 --> 0:09:54.160 concerned a few weeks back when things kind of got 0:09:54.240 --> 0:09:56.240 derailed a bit and they're like, oh, it's just a temporary, 0:09:56.400 --> 0:09:59.240 cautious move, and they brought him back, Like there's nothing 0:09:59.320 --> 0:10:01.400 cautious when he rais are still trying to contend to 0:10:01.440 --> 0:10:04.400 for a spot and you need Wander Fronco. So the 0:10:04.480 --> 0:10:06.600 fact that he's getting back again, you got the Handmaid 0:10:06.640 --> 0:10:08.839 injury where power is already kind of a concern I 0:10:08.880 --> 0:10:11.040 had with him. We haven't seen it enough the handmaidl'z 0:10:11.040 --> 0:10:14.640 app that it's to me, it's I would have dropped 0:10:14.720 --> 0:10:16.920 him by now. But it's tough. Like a keeper league, 0:10:16.960 --> 0:10:18.880 you can't, but draft league, he's gone. 0:10:19.600 --> 0:10:21.319 Yeah, in a redraft, I think you can move on. 0:10:21.520 --> 0:10:24.400 You know, the rookies an easy play. You know, we 0:10:24.520 --> 0:10:26.920 had all those discussions of like Gunner Anderson for this, 0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:30.040 Like sure, I'd rather have Gunner. He's out there. Tristan 0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:32.520 Costas at this point. You know, the one thing Tristan 0:10:32.559 --> 0:10:34.599 Cossa has got a hit in his first game, and 0:10:36.160 --> 0:10:37.760 one of the things they said right out to shoot 0:10:37.840 --> 0:10:39.199 was that they're going to let him play. This is 0:10:39.200 --> 0:10:41.079 in the same position, of course, but they said they're 0:10:41.080 --> 0:10:43.520 going to let Costas play for the most part all 0:10:43.559 --> 0:10:44.280 the way through to the. 0:10:44.400 --> 0:10:45.720 End, obviously not going pastime. 0:10:46.280 --> 0:10:48.199 And they said it either late yesterday or early this 0:10:48.360 --> 0:10:50.360 morning that they're pretty much shutting Hawsmber down for the 0:10:50.400 --> 0:10:52.240 rest of the year, so it's costs his job. 0:10:52.520 --> 0:10:54.800 And they had sent down Bobby doll Back, so I mean, they. 0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:57.319 Had made it talk about a fall from grace. My goodness, 0:10:57.720 --> 0:10:58.280 I feel bad. 0:10:58.320 --> 0:11:02.040 I actually, for some reason, I thought I because I 0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:05.920 interviewed Tristan Casus in the AFL last year, and when 0:11:05.960 --> 0:11:08.439 I was talking with him, for some reason, sometimes you 0:11:08.559 --> 0:11:11.040 just assume like, hey, everybody's like buddies and everyone's cool 0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:12.719 and everyone's helping each other. And I had kind of 0:11:12.800 --> 0:11:15.199 done a like, hey, you know, you and Bobby do 0:11:15.240 --> 0:11:17.520 you guys catch up and you've talked to him and stuff, 0:11:17.520 --> 0:11:19.920 and he's just like no, it's like pretty much like nope, 0:11:19.920 --> 0:11:22.480 don't really. He's like a good guy, but you know, 0:11:22.559 --> 0:11:25.480 there's no advice he gave me for the AFL or 0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:28.400 anything and didn't talk. And now Cossus essentially has his 0:11:28.520 --> 0:11:30.120 gig over Bobby doll Back and he's down a. 0:11:30.160 --> 0:11:31.880 Warchester, which is not grief. 0:11:32.160 --> 0:11:34.360 Not quite Boston, not quite Boston. 0:11:34.440 --> 0:11:37.200 Yeah, one hundred percent, But don't expect any good help 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:39.440 from Franco and yeah, and any redrafts if you've got 0:11:39.559 --> 0:11:42.120 i L issues, so you just probably move on because 0:11:42.559 --> 0:11:44.400 between all of the issues that are going on there, 0:11:44.480 --> 0:11:47.000 I just don't see any great help and I think 0:11:47.400 --> 0:11:49.280 time is against him, so it's not gonna work out. 0:11:49.960 --> 0:11:53.199 On the injury fronts, Max Sures was pulled after five 0:11:53.240 --> 0:11:56.439 innings on Saturday with left oblique fatigue. 0:11:57.040 --> 0:11:57.640 The one thing I. 0:11:58.160 --> 0:12:00.319 Feel positive about is he could just look get that 0:12:00.440 --> 0:12:02.760 left obleak and I think he could probably scare it 0:12:02.840 --> 0:12:04.839 back into working and he could be good to go 0:12:05.000 --> 0:12:09.200 the rest of the way. So you know which, Yeah, 0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:11.080 and he's one of the nicest guys in person too. 0:12:11.080 --> 0:12:13.400 Remember when he was a diamondback, he was very, very nice, 0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:16.720 and he's still like that. He's just intense, like down 0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:19.120 an alley. You wouldn't want to see him, you know, 0:12:19.240 --> 0:12:22.439 he'd be terrifying. Yankees manager Aaron Boone confirmed Monday that 0:12:22.480 --> 0:12:26.040 Andrew ben and Tenny undergoing a Tuesday repair on his 0:12:26.120 --> 0:12:29.880 broken hamdmate bone on Tuesday with the bone and the wrist. 0:12:29.960 --> 0:12:32.240 And that's just black. I mean, there's nothing for this year. 0:12:32.240 --> 0:12:33.680 You don't have to worry about this year, but next 0:12:33.760 --> 0:12:36.440 year even keep an eye on that. Power never really 0:12:36.520 --> 0:12:39.240 developed like I was hoping it was going to. But 0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:42.320 he hit really well and New York was a great spot, but. 0:12:42.720 --> 0:12:43.280 It isn't now. 0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:47.120 Jacob Rizzi miss saturdays start with right arm fatigue. This 0:12:47.280 --> 0:12:49.600 one I really hate. Justin Steele placed on the fifteen 0:12:49.679 --> 0:12:52.240 day IL with lower backtrain. He had been such a 0:12:52.320 --> 0:12:54.679 boon to the back half of this year. But you know, 0:12:54.840 --> 0:12:58.319 with a fifteen day IL stent, you can probably just 0:12:58.559 --> 0:13:00.599 dump you know, there's no roster, there would be no 0:13:00.679 --> 0:13:02.719 reason to hold on a roster spot or even into 0:13:02.760 --> 0:13:03.520 shortkeeper league. 0:13:03.520 --> 0:13:04.679 You could dump him out right. 0:13:05.960 --> 0:13:07.839 Yeah. No, it stinks because I've been riding him for 0:13:07.920 --> 0:13:10.000 quite a while. It's been great, and it was just 0:13:10.040 --> 0:13:11.679 so he was supposed to actually come back later this 0:13:11.760 --> 0:13:13.280 week and then on you know, this morning, you put 0:13:13.360 --> 0:13:15.720 him on the IL. So yeah, probably kissed that one 0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:16.440 goodbye for a bit. 0:13:17.080 --> 0:13:17.320 Yep. 0:13:17.360 --> 0:13:20.520 I've got a I got a league where it's it's tough. 0:13:20.559 --> 0:13:23.240 It's like a dinasty it's a dynasty league, but there 0:13:23.360 --> 0:13:25.480 is a finite amount of players that you keep. And 0:13:25.640 --> 0:13:28.000 Steel has been really good. But just based on my roster, 0:13:28.679 --> 0:13:30.200 I just don't think I can do anything with him. 0:13:30.200 --> 0:13:33.520 I don't have the il spots anymore. I need arms, 0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:35.599 and I've got so many guys that I think he 0:13:35.720 --> 0:13:37.599 still would be fringe keeping and I'm gonna have to 0:13:37.679 --> 0:13:40.440 move off of So this kind of sucks. Brand Jury 0:13:40.559 --> 0:13:43.760 was placed on the seven day concussion list retroactive to 0:13:43.840 --> 0:13:45.880 September third, so obviously that would mean he can't come 0:13:45.920 --> 0:13:48.839 back till the tenth This one, rinse and repeat. John 0:13:48.880 --> 0:13:51.120 Carlos Stanton's moved from Monday's game after fouling a ball 0:13:51.160 --> 0:13:53.719 off his foot. X rays were negative, So maybe just 0:13:53.840 --> 0:13:55.400 a couple of days or two and you can get 0:13:55.440 --> 0:13:58.040 yourself some Stanton back. Miggie was placed on the IO 0:13:58.400 --> 0:14:01.400 with a bicep strain and Price fifteen day aisle with 0:14:01.600 --> 0:14:04.439 left wrist inflammation. Boy, how the mighty of falling with 0:14:04.520 --> 0:14:08.480 David Price. He is rough in the streets. Amazing that 0:14:08.559 --> 0:14:12.199 he's still playing Stanton? Is there any long term concerns? 0:14:12.679 --> 0:14:14.240 When I say long term, I mean you know rest 0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:17.719 of this year as far as Rostering goes with, you know, 0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:20.520 the little the little like scratchy scratch injuries that he 0:14:20.640 --> 0:14:21.080 likes to get. 0:14:21.720 --> 0:14:23.440 No, I'm not worried about him. I'm more concerned about 0:14:23.440 --> 0:14:25.480 the ball that hit him. I wonder how that thing's 0:14:25.520 --> 0:14:28.200 doing because that that couldn't have felt very good. But no, 0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:30.320 I am fine with Stanton. They need him. There are 0:14:30.320 --> 0:14:31.800 only a few games up compared to whether he used 0:14:31.840 --> 0:14:33.800 to be in that division, so they need Stanton in company. 0:14:34.240 --> 0:14:37.680 Is Chuck Norris of baseball players? Like the all the ball? 0:14:38.160 --> 0:14:41.240 The ball x rays were positive and it's we're not 0:14:41.320 --> 0:14:42.680 going to see any life into that thing. 0:14:42.760 --> 0:14:45.720 The seams are broken. Let's talk about this for a minute. 0:14:46.200 --> 0:14:49.240 This was a very gross DM that I got and 0:14:49.360 --> 0:14:52.440 I do not appreciate these being shared with me. And 0:14:52.560 --> 0:14:55.760 it was shared by our own Mike Mayer, the ultra 0:14:55.880 --> 0:14:59.600 producer for this show, and he sends me this dis 0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:03.240 gusting keep it to yourself, Mayor, No one wants to 0:15:03.360 --> 0:15:03.720 see this. 0:15:04.240 --> 0:15:05.040 Here's what it was. 0:15:06.160 --> 0:15:10.720 Patrick Corbyn over his last three starts a one nine 0:15:10.760 --> 0:15:15.480 to six ERA, only four earned runs and eighteen and 0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:20.880 one thirds of an inning. Gross yuck, bubba. I'm not 0:15:21.080 --> 0:15:24.640 going to fall for it. I will not. Will you 0:15:24.920 --> 0:15:26.120 fall for it? I will not. 0:15:27.040 --> 0:15:29.760 Well, this sucks because I was the guy that was like, Okay, 0:15:29.960 --> 0:15:31.600 you know we're looking for the next year's Robbie Ray. 0:15:31.680 --> 0:15:34.400 This guy's not getting drafted. He had showed great promise 0:15:34.400 --> 0:15:36.200 at the end of last season, and here we go again. 0:15:36.320 --> 0:15:38.240 He's gonna suck us back in. But no, don't fall 0:15:38.320 --> 0:15:40.360 for it. Like if you have him been drafted, hold 0:15:40.400 --> 0:15:42.760 leagues roster, and but don't go spending five dollars on 0:15:42.960 --> 0:15:43.800 Patrick corbyt No. 0:15:44.240 --> 0:15:47.200 See Wonky Wonkey do? Should we go talk to HR? 0:15:47.520 --> 0:15:50.640 That look at He shared the same thing with Wonkey 0:15:51.560 --> 0:15:53.080 that said I can't even with that. 0:15:53.200 --> 0:15:55.000 I think we need to go to HR to be fair. 0:15:55.160 --> 0:15:57.760 To be fair, you know, Mayor's probably in football mode. 0:15:57.760 --> 0:15:59.760 It's seen a lot of football tweets. He's an Eagles fan, 0:15:59.840 --> 0:16:02.160 so they're delusional because the season hasn't started yet. Give 0:16:02.240 --> 0:16:04.440 him a couple of weeks, temperature will calm down and 0:16:04.480 --> 0:16:05.200 things will be fine. 0:16:05.720 --> 0:16:08.960 Sending us Patrick Corbyn stuff. What's he gonna do next? 0:16:09.040 --> 0:16:12.200 Wonky start sending some Jacob de Rizzy must starts. I 0:16:12.280 --> 0:16:14.400 don't think so. We're not going to fall for that. 0:16:14.840 --> 0:16:16.760 You know what, if Patrick Corvin wants to be good, 0:16:17.480 --> 0:16:20.800 good for him, I will not be falling for it. 0:16:20.920 --> 0:16:22.080 I will not be doing any of that. 0:16:22.200 --> 0:16:24.080 But if you guys were wondering, he does have a 0:16:24.160 --> 0:16:27.720 sub era sub two era as of recent maybe that 0:16:27.880 --> 0:16:30.880 gets you excited. It does not mean This day in 0:16:30.920 --> 0:16:35.400 baseball nineteen ninety five, Cal Ripkin Junior played his two thousand, 0:16:35.600 --> 0:16:38.640 one hundred and thirty first consecutive Major League game to 0:16:38.720 --> 0:16:42.960 surpass Luke Garrigg's fifty six year record. Ripkin received a 0:16:43.200 --> 0:16:46.120 twenty two minute standing ovation where he went two for four, 0:16:46.200 --> 0:16:48.840 including a homer, in Baltimore's four to two win over California. 0:16:49.120 --> 0:16:52.520 I have a very important question. I am a. 0:16:54.000 --> 0:16:58.080 Not standing ovation guy. I don't understand that. I see 0:16:58.080 --> 0:17:01.040 a twenty two minute standing ovation and I'm like what. 0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:05.160 They just had a six minute ovation for Brendan Fraser 0:17:05.280 --> 0:17:07.639 at like a film festival for his movie The Whale. 0:17:08.840 --> 0:17:10.600 Why are we doing that? Why do we need the 0:17:11.000 --> 0:17:16.840 twenty two minutes is massively excessive for anybody. That's crazy 0:17:17.000 --> 0:17:18.320 talk twenty two minutes, baba. 0:17:18.600 --> 0:17:20.560 But it was twenty two minutes because I remember it 0:17:20.640 --> 0:17:23.119 very clearly. It's because he walked around the entire stadium 0:17:23.359 --> 0:17:26.359 like high fiving people. I think they're counting that whole thing. 0:17:26.400 --> 0:17:28.000 I don't think it was like a hey, we're gonna 0:17:28.000 --> 0:17:29.600 applause until you come out and tip your cap out 0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:31.200 of the dugout. No, this was like literally they I 0:17:31.240 --> 0:17:33.840 remember the banners came down on the building. He was 0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:36.639
