Good to see you, my friend, 23 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: yesterday a light day of baseball. Do you like the 24 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 1: light days of baseball where you could focus in a 25 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: little bit more on what's going on? Or you a 26 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:20,040 Speaker 1: full slate kind of guy? 27 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 2: As a content person, I tend to like the Mondays 28 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 2: and Thursdays where I'm able to fully appreciate the slate. 29 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 2: When there's fifteen games going on, especially if it's on 30 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 2: a weekend and the start times were all within an 31 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 2: hour or two, things get lost. It's impossible to watch 32 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 2: all the games going on at once, So when we 33 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 2: have a shorter slate, we can really hone in on 34 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,759 Speaker 2: the important things. So let's get into it, my friend. 35 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 1: Yes, let's start with a question here, because I like 36 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:45,960 Speaker 1: this one yo yo yo from the Big Dance were 37 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 1: starting Eavaldi and Uri Perez today. I'm a no to 38 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: both of these personally. I'll want to see it first, 39 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: especially from Perez. I need to see a little bit more. 40 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: If you're desperate, If I had to pick, only one 41 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: of them would the guy that I would pick, But again, 42 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: I know he threw like a fifty pitch bullpen and 43 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: he said I'm good to go. I'm still skeptical that 44 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 1: it's going to be a great return, But I don't know, Joe, 45 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:11,959 Speaker 1: what do you think about Evaldi and Perez just throwing 46 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:12,959 Speaker 1: him to the wolves today? 47 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 2: I think it's a little bit risky on both fronts Now, 48 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 2: Arizona is missing Corbyn Carrol, which is a huge piece 49 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 2: of the offense, so true feel a little bit better 50 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 2: about that than I would have a few days ago. 51 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 2: With Valdi. I think it's more so just to worry 52 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 2: about how long he's going to go, whether it's going 53 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,079 Speaker 2: to be sixty seventy pitches or if they just let 54 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 2: him go. I think that generally speaking, if it's a 55 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 2: daily format, I'm probably going to Valdi and leaning towards 56 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,239 Speaker 2: sitting Perez, but I wouldn't have a problem sitting either 57 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 2: of them, just to see how they look in their 58 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 2: first time back. 59 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: All right, We did have a return yesterday of Shota Imonaga. 60 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: One hit five score listenings on Thursday against the Cadinals 61 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: Seth's Cardinals. They are a producer. He came back from 62 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,959 Speaker 1: the io forty six fastballs, five outs on the fastballs, 63 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: and twenty seven strikes on those, with nineteen coming on 64 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: foul ball. He struck out three guys. His era is 65 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:04,639 Speaker 1: now two five four, His record is four to two. 66 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: But I keep saying the same thing, which is the 67 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 1: deeper lying metrics on show to Imanaga are not great. 68 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: They haven't been all year. Strikeout rate down by a 69 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: long shot. Uh walk right up. Expect the ray higher, 70 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: way higher than the regular era which is sub three 71 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 1: right now. I still say that if you have showed 72 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: at Imanaga and you somehow landed on Mizerowski or you 73 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: picked up Mobitch or you you know, whoever you have 74 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,679 Speaker 1: that's been getting it done, and Emanaga can bring you 75 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: back a big bat you need, I'd be willing to 76 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: make that deal. What did you think of Imanaga's return 77 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: and what do you think of his value rest of season? 78 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: Because I feel like he's still a guy who could 79 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: bring back a ton for you in a trade. 80 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, fairly promising return, you know, just one hit over 81 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 2: the five innings. But I agree with you that he 82 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 2: is somebody that I would be looking to sell and 83 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 2: I think if you know, the majority of people are 84 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 2: going to look at ERA and WHIP and those are 85 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 2: at two five four and one zero three. So I 86 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 2: agree that you'd be able to get a really nice return. 87 00:03:55,800 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 2: But eighteen percent strikeout rate is awful. That's well below average, 88 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: Like that's that's not even really playable in most leagues. 89 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 2: Down from twenty five percent last year. The walk rate's 90 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 2: almost doubled. You know, I'm a big expected stat guy. 91 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 2: If you look at the expected ERA, the FIP, the SIERRA, 92 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 2: they're about two full runs higher than his actual er 93 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 2: little no this like. 94 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 1: It's a that's the thing. I keep saying. It's like 95 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: two five fours ERA, but it's expected or is four 96 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: three zero. Yeah, that's ridiculous. The expected FIP is four 97 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: a two. The FIP is four three two. I mean 98 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 1: this is a huge cavern Joe. 99 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 2: Yeah. And I think a lot of it does come 100 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,359 Speaker 2: down to the strikeouts because a lot of those metrics 101 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,839 Speaker 2: do rely heavily on strikeouts and walks, and those have 102 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,599 Speaker 2: been awful for him this year. But he's not a 103 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 2: big stuff guy. You know. The swing strike rate has 104 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 2: gone down this year from where it was last year. 105 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 2: There's not a lot that's terribly encouraging. With showed at Yumanaga. 106 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 2: He still gets a good amount of whiffs. But I'm 107 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 2: overall really on the side of selling him if you're 108 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 2: able to, and I think you are able to. 109 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 1: All right, let's get to who dad who cheered? A 110 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: question here? I have a fantasy court question. Oh boy, 111 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: If two teams agree on an initial trade, but the 112 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 1: trade that got sent was different, sent late at night 113 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,280 Speaker 1: and worse for the person who sent it, and it 114 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 1: was accepted, is that trade subject to a veto? Or 115 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: is this just a moral issue? I don't understand. If 116 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: you're sending a trade, don't you have to like agree 117 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 1: on the players in whatever system you're playing on, Like, 118 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 1: how does that work? 119 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 2: I don't understand the trade that sent was different, so 120 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 2: you agreed on player A, player B, and then it 121 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: was somebody made a last second switch. I don't really, 122 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 2: But how do you make us? 123 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: How do you do this? 124 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 2: I don't like. 125 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: Look, you have to have you have to have receipts 126 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: on this and speak to the commissioner. So if you 127 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 1: have screenshots or you have a text thread or so. 128 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,159 Speaker 1: But again, this is just weird, Like what this is 129 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 1: not like nineteen ninety seven where it's like, oh, I 130 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: called so and so and he said it's okay to 131 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: make this trade, and then tomorrow you have to check 132 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: the USA today to get the stats. So you make 133 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 1: sure that you can tabulate everything correctly. Like, what the 134 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: hell are we doing here? What year is it we 135 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 1: played on on rod O Joe? Is that where he's. 136 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 2: That's very good? 137 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 1: Little inside baseball, I think baseball. 138 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 2: I'm there. I'm really confused. No, that was that was 139 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 2: very good, But I'm confused. I just I think we 140 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 2: need a little bit more context on what the parts 141 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 2: are in this trade. If somebody made the last second 142 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 2: swap and somebody except. 143 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: I said how I don't want to send the logistics 144 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: because I want to This is where we help to 145 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: bring a person on the show and have them talking out. 146 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 1: Shout out to who just subbed with prime s MK teach, 147 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 1: Welcome to the show, baby, let's go. Let's get to 148 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 1: some more headlines here. Daniel Palencia for the Cubs fan 149 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,280 Speaker 1: three of the five batters he faced, he got a 150 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 1: save there, so we were wondering about where Polnci is 151 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 1: with his bullpen. Uh, I got all three of my 152 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 1: bets right yesterday, Joe, so after going zero and three 153 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: back three and zero, it's a beautiful thing. Christopher Sanchez 154 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:53,160 Speaker 1: struck out eleven guys in that game against the Astros, 155 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,799 Speaker 1: and the Astros Hunter Browns struck out nine. I figured 156 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 1: it was going to be one of those kind of 157 00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: games and it was. Shane Boz was terrific to yesterday. 158 00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 1: She struck out nine in eight score listenings. Boz and 159 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: Pepio really leading the charge here for these Tampa Bay 160 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: Rays right now. And Joe, it feels like, you know, 161 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: the Rays should be buyers at the deadline, like they 162 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: they've got trade chips they always do. They can bring 163 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: in a little bit more offense, maybe something else too, 164 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: maybe another bullpen piece. I don't know, but I feel 165 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: like the Rays should stop fusing around, you know, like 166 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:28,679 Speaker 1: but one of these years, especially in the American League 167 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 1: is so weak. I feel like this year the Central 168 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: is very weak. The West has had a lot of injuries. 169 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: The East is the Yankees, and the Yankees I don't 170 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: think are unbeatable in a short series. I don't know 171 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: if it just feels like it just if you're a 172 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 1: Rais fan and there's like three of them, and one 173 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: of them is Jason Collette. I kind of feel like 174 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: you should just go for it, Just go for it 175 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: one year. 176 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 2: What do you think, Joe, Yeah, it's just their organization. 177 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 2: They're not gonna be the type of team to go 178 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 2: and acquire like if a Sodo is available or somebody 179 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 2: like that. But there are definitely moves they can make. 180 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 2: The Pirates are gonna be huge sellers. I would imagine 181 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 2: there's you know, if they want to reinforce the pen, 182 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 2: they could go for a Bednar. You can maybe go 183 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 2: for a Mitch Keller, although they don't really need a 184 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 2: starting pitcher. 185 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 1: What about Reynolds. 186 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 2: Reynolds would be interesting. The only problem is that their 187 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 2: outfield has been a bit of a log jam. But 188 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 2: I think Brian Reynolds would slot in. 189 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: That solves it. You know, maybe just maybe if the 190 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: deal of Candler Simpson or something like that. Michael wants 191 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: to know Uri Perez or Jacob Lopez. So who would 192 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: you rather start this weekend? 193 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 2: Just for this, like, if we're talking about this week. 194 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: Lopez this weekend or well Pez is Monday. 195 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,839 Speaker 2: Let me look is his next start? So he's got 196 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 2: a two start week next week Tampa. I thought he 197 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 2: was Monday, Tampa and San franc. 198 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:44,959 Speaker 1: So let's just say in a vacuum, who do you 199 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 1: want rest of season here? I'd still want Uri Perez. 200 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 2: I'd still want Uri, but Lopez is a great pick up. 201 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 2: Next week is a pretty decent two step, although the 202 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,719 Speaker 2: first part of it coming at Tampa doesn't give you 203 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 2: the warm and fuzzies, but that second start at San 204 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 2: Francisco is a pretty solid one to target. Just at Tampa. 205 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 2: Right now, it's a a little scary. 206 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: Chambe's wants to know. Hey, guys, trade question here ten 207 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 1: team head to head category League five outfielders. My outfielders 208 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:10,839 Speaker 1: are Carol Jackson, Meryl Churio, Wood, Schwarburn. Quant's pretty good. 209 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 1: I need middle infield help. I've been offered Trey Turner 210 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: and Boobit for Carrol. 211 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 2: Take it, Take it now, Yeah, right. 212 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: Now, Chambi's take it right now, because you don't know 213 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: when he's coming back, what it looks like when he 214 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 1: comes back, and you've got to really, I mean, Meryl 215 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 1: hopefully is better in the second half. Meryl Churio, Wood, 216 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,959 Speaker 1: Schwarbur Quant, that's no brainer. You got really good value. 217 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 1: Turner and a pitcher one hundred percent Harper Jazz rest 218 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: of season.

Come on, bro, Ryan, 219 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:37,839 Speaker 1: come on. 220 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,199 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's probably Bryce, but just the injury stuff. I 221 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 2: guess I haven't seen the most recent updates on it. 222 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: O because Jazz is the picture of health ful Rico. 223 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:46,719 Speaker 2: This is true, This is true. Actually, you know what 224 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,679 Speaker 2: they're saying. Harper could be activated as soon as Monday. 225 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 2: So yeah, that that's pretty easily. 226 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: Harper Harper all day, and Ryan says, can someone please 227 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: teach him how to sub with Amazon Prime?

Who 232 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 1: dad wants to know? Chase Burns, Jacob Perez or Edwardo 233 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 1: to Wardo, Edward Cabrera rest of season. 234 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 2: Jacob Perez, who's Jacob Perez? That Jacob Lopez and Uri Prez. 235 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: I think he means Lopez. I think he made Uri 236 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 1: pres and Jacob Perez one person. I think they had 237 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,679 Speaker 1: a baby. It's got to be Edward Cabrera. He's been 238 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 1: so steady. I know Chase Burst Burns is fun, but 239 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 1: again I'm not there yet. 240 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's probably Cabrera, followed closely by Burns. 241 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 1: For me, Michael impost is that's a clown question, bro 242 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: Kylo Brice Harper, I do. And he's a Philly in 243 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 1: the National his whole career, and I still love him 244 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:41,679 Speaker 1: as a mess fan. 245 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 2: I was in Toronto. That quote, that lovely quoteous And then. 246 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: Of course the media agent from the Canadian Press apologized. 247 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 2: Why wouldn't Americans drink when they're twenty and they come 248 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 2: to Canada. I'm assuming they all? Do? You know he's 249 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 2: a Mormon, so it's a different story there, But I 250 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 2: mean I did. Uh. 251 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: Is Kevin Gosman the World eight innings yesterday? You just 252 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 1: never know. He's like a box of chocolates, isn't he? 253 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: You don't know which one you're gonna get all the time, 254 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: So you've had to. Uh, you've been into a few 255 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 1: of your Kevin Gosman starts yourself this year as a 256 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: blue Jay fan. 257 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 2: Uh. 258 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,839 Speaker 1: Some will make you want to spit it out right away, 259 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: and others He's delicious. This was delicious. I don't know 260 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,079 Speaker 1: when you start gospel except you just leave him in 261 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: and hope for the best every week. I don't know 262 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:28,439 Speaker 1: what else to say at this point. 263 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he loves and dies by the splitter, 264 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 2: and it's been better as a whole this year. He's 265 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 2: definitely better than last season. The stuff is back up, 266 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 2: the swinging strike grade is back up. His whip, which 267 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 2: is I tend to look at whip a lot more 268 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 2: than ERA, and that's at one oh six. You know, 269 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 2: the Era being a four to twenty one isn't great, 270 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 2: but all the expected eras and x fips of the 271 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,079 Speaker 2: world are better. So I'm still pretty confident in him. 272 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 2: I agree that it's still a bit of a wild 273 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,079 Speaker 2: card and then certain tough matchups you might want to 274 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 2: lean towards sitting him. But I'm still pretty confident with 275 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 2: Gosmin going for. 276 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: This is an all star All Star question right here, 277 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 1: or quote Wild and Wonderful says, is Dad aka Brandon 278 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 1: woodruff ever getting back from getting the milk? No, No 279 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: he's not. He's never coming back. That's really funny. Well done, 280 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 1: Wild and Wonderful, Well done. That's a plus comment right there. 281 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 1: All right, let's get to some bats. Hero star with 282 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 1: the Marlins who got the upset junk was crap but 283 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,199 Speaker 1: didn't matter because Augustin Ramirez three for five with a homer. 284 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 1: Kyle Stowers is a three run homer, and the Marlins 285 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: beat the crap out of Hayden Birdsong in the Giants. 286 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 1: Ooh we Raphael Devers in that game did go three 287 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: for four but got the upset special on the money 288 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 1: line plus one sixty yesterday, How you do win? Love it? 289 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,439 Speaker 1: Showey Altani went one for three, So I didn't pick 290 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: Shoey Altani. He had home run. I picked him, he didn't, 291 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: and then I picked his teammate and he did, so 292 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: Shoey Otani, you can suck it. That's right, Shoey Altani enough. 293 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: I can't believe you. Just very frustrated with shoe Atani. 294 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 1: I'm so frustrated that I'm not gonna pick him this weekend. 295 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 1: So he's gonna h a ton of home run. Also 296 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:02,959 Speaker 1: in that game, Clayton Kershaw went to four to oh 297 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: against the Rockies. Here in the season. His uh oh 298 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 1: oh am, I okay, did I freeze? I heard the 299 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: weird noise. 300 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 2: Just for a split second but you're back. 301 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: I heard the noise, all right, Clayton Kershaw back to 302 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 1: him six great innings, a three zero three era now 303 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 1: in the season, a one point one to nine whip, 304 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: twenty nine strikeouts to thirteen walks, and thirty eight innings, 305 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 1: so the strikeout rate is still not great. But he's 306 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: kind of getting by on guts and guile. And it 307 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: looks like Joe Rico is now frozen here, So can 308 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 1: you can you? I can hear you, Joe Rico, but 309 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: seeing you, seeing you as the issue, so now I 310 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 1: can do Papa Joe, Hey, look at me. I'm from Canada. 311 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 1: A oh goodness, oh geez oh yeah, it's just so 312 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 1: excited to be here. It's a boot time. I talked 313 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: about Clayton Kershaw. Eh. 314 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 2: Oh yeah good. They get in the two for one. 315 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 2: They get in the two for today. On frozen Joe's. 316 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,199 Speaker 1: Too many frozen Joe's Eh, I got a brain freeze 317 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 1: with all him frozen jo Yeah, sorry. 318 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 2: Too much time in the igloo, my friend. 319 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: Anyway, Clinton Kershaw getting but getting frozen Jone's spagel uh 320 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: getting by on guts and guile, which I think is impressive, 321 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 1: Like this is what you want. This is a pitcher, 322 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 1: you know, this is a guy going to all fame, 323 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 1: just like Pedro Martinez at the end. You know, he 324 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 1: didn't have this stuff anymore when he was pitching for 325 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: the Phillies especially, and he was just like, you know what, 326 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna try to figure it out. And he's 327 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 1: doing it, and you know what, it turned out to 328 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: be a huge blessing that he came back because they 329 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 1: needed him this year. They've needed these thirty plus things 330 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 1: that they've gotten from Kershaw in the worst way. 331 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 2: I would say, I agree with everything you said, but 332 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 2: I do think that you could probably look towards selling 333 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 2: him right now after a few good starts. The name 334 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 2: value probably isn't what it used to be. But Clayton 335 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 2: Kershaw with a three to zero three era, somebody who's 336 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 2: just lost some pitching might be interested in him. And 337 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 2: considering the strikeout rate going down, the walk rate being 338 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 2: as high as it's pretty much ever been going back 339 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 2: fifteen years, you know, if you look at the zone 340 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 2: contact numbers, batters are making more contact in the zone 341 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 2: than they ever have and they're chasing less than they 342 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 2: ever have before. You know, the stuff is taking a 343 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 2: nose dive as well. Like he is succeeding right now, 344 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 2: but I think that the bottom will follow it from 345 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 2: under him. And I wonder, you know, because he's only 346 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 2: a couple strikeouts away from three thousand these three away. Yeah, 347 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 2: once he hits that number, I wonder what the rest 348 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 2: of the season is gonna look like from him. Not 349 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 2: that he's gonna just stop performing after that necessarily, but 350 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 2: I think that's a big milestone that he wants to 351 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 2: hit and once we get there, I just I don't 352 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 2: really know what to expect from him going forward. But 353 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 2: if you can sell based off of this is Clayton 354 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 2: Kershaw he's got a three era, then I'd be in 355 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 2: favor of doing that. 356 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 1: It's really smart. Now it would be the time to 357 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 1: sell on him. You never know what kind of other 358 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: injuries or the age catching up with him. Glass now. 359 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: By the way, it looks like after the All Star break, 360 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 1: I think they said the eleventh of July is when 361 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: they might target for him to be quote unquote ready. 362 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 1: That would put him right after the All Star break basically, 363 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: so that that would be if you could do it 364 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 1: between now and then, that's the time to do it, 365 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: all right, b D Joe. He need to tell us 366 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: you almost pick for the home run call today. No, 367 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna tell you. Actually, I think with Soda, 368 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 1: who I almost picked, I didn't pick him. So there 369 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 1: you go. So I'll keep it real. I'll keep it real. 370 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: On the show Angel Theories, someone dropped Alby's. Do I 371 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 1: grab him? I have Simeon and Ronda. Would you drop 372 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: one of those guys for Alby's. It's tough. 373 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 2: Maybe Simeon, but Simmy has been pretty pretty damn good for. 374 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: Say, Simeon's picked things up. Roanda is the one who splits. 375 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 1: Scare the crap out of me. His road splits are terrible. Yeah, 376 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: knock it on the road and they got a ton 377 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: of road games coming up, like that might be the 378 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 1: if I'm dying to get him, that might be the 379 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: road to go to. 380 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 2: It might be, but it would be tough. Around has been. 381 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 2: I mean, he's hting three thirty. He's been really good. 382 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 2: He deserves to be. 383 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: A fifty on the road. 384 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I don't I don't know if I'd 385 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 2: have the guts to do that one. I think I 386 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 2: understand it, but Albis has been pretty disappointing. I mean, 387 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 2: I I still like Albi's a lot. I think he's 388 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 2: gonna turn it around, but I would probably prefer Randa 389 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 2: if I had to pick. 390 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 1: All right, here's a fun one. Pick a Tyler. I'm 391 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: my new favorite game. It's like squid Games. Pick a 392 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 1: Tyler soder Strummer, Freeman. What Tyler do you want? Rest 393 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: of season? I want Tyler Freeman. I got zero hesitation 394 00:16:58,520 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 1: on this one. 395 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 2: I think it's probably Freeman. I think that he's going 396 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 2: to come back to Earth a little bit. He's one 397 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 2: of those, you know, slap hitter guys who's going to 398 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 2: be a pretty good asset in your batting average, but 399 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 2: the Colorado lineup around him is really bad. Soderstrom would 400 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 2: be the pick for me if you're really desperate for power, 401 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 2: If you really need power, Tyler Freeman's probably not going 402 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 2: to do a hell of a lot for you, but 403 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 2: he'd probably be the pick. Eight times out of ten, 404 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 2: I'd say, all right. 405 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 1: I made a joke the other day that I said 406 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,959 Speaker 1: that Genesis Cabrera, you know, you start out hot when 407 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 1: you're working in the New York clubs or Miami Beach, 408 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 1: and then eventually you moved to Jersey, and then I said, eventually, 409 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:34,880 Speaker 1: you know, you end up working at the Strip Club 410 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: by the airport in Pittsburgh. And that's exactly what happened 411 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 1: to Genesis Cabrera because he just got signed by the 412 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Pirates yesterday. So I call it fortuitousness, call it 413 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,440 Speaker 1: women's intuition, I don't know, whatever you want to call it. 414 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:55,159 Speaker 1: Somehow I'd nailed this. I nailed this, this Genesis Cabrera. 415 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 1: It's almost kind of creepy. The connectivity I have to 416 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 1: this player and the fact that he is not Fantasy 417 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 1: relevant but become like an unofficial mascot of the show. 418 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 1: It's kind of a kind of amazing. And the question 419 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 1: is will he Will we see him in Pittsburgh on 420 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 1: the main stage this year Joe Rico, Now. 421 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 2: His name might as well be Exous Cabrera. I don't 422 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:14,199 Speaker 2: think there's go. 423 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 1: Oh Bible humor. That's two Bible jokes this week on 424 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: leading off, because somebody asked if we wanted to keep 425 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 1: this person, this person or Christ and they said Christian 426 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 1: more but they just said Christ And I said, well, 427 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:30,439 Speaker 1: you got to wait for him to come off the 428 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 1: IL in three days. But god, so it's two Bible 429 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 1: jokes we've gotten in a week. That's that's pretty awesome. 430 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 2: That's what you're giving a couple of Italians, right, a 431 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:43,920 Speaker 2: couple of Roman upbringings. 432 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 1: Hell yeah, hey man, we did all the sacraments, My 433 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 1: parents wrote all the checks, so that I'm not going 434 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 1: to help. All right, Let's get to the rookie. Lookie 435 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:57,639 Speaker 1: cam Smith uh singled and drove in a run there. 436 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 1: He is now up to two seventy one three forty 437 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 1: three to four h two. So Cam Smith really I 438 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: think starting to pick things up. He's looked much better 439 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: in the last month, though I'm optimistic. I know his 440 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 1: struggle a bouts in April and May a little bit, 441 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,439 Speaker 1: but June's looking better. And I give the Astros credit 442 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,679 Speaker 1: and saying, hey, you know, we're gonna stick with this 443 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:18,159 Speaker 1: kid for better or worse, and we're not going to, 444 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 1: you know, overreact. And so far as paying off Jordan Lawler, 445 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:22,680 Speaker 1: who's a guy that I do think you should still 446 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: pick up this week. It's gonna be cheaper to pick 447 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 1: him up because he's going to miss at least a week. 448 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: He's got a hamstring injury, so I mean, he's had 449 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,439 Speaker 1: so many injuries but stash him now anyway, if you 450 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,639 Speaker 1: have a roster room, because come August, he's gonna be 451 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 1: playing every day, There's no doubt about that. Maybe even 452 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 1: by the All Star break, he's gonna be playing every day. 453 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 1: Dinnie or Fuentes is gonna make another start if the 454 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 1: Bray's rotation. Do you think that's a good idea, Joe Rico, 455 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 1: I do not, No, I don't. 456 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 2: I think they're kind of pushing the issue here. He's 457 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:52,160 Speaker 2: twenty just turned twenty years old. He hasn't looked great. 458 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 1: It looks like the next drinking Canada. 459 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,159 Speaker 2: Though. He can come down to my neck of the 460 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 2: woods and have a beer, and he might need one 461 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 2: if they keep him up and keep getting thrashed. I mean, 462 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 2: next week it's Baltimore it looks like, which isn't too bad. 463 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,160 Speaker 2: And then if he stays in the rotation at Saint 464 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 2: Louis after that, so not terrible. But I'm going to 465 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 2: be taking the over in those games probably. 466 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, certainly not been good. And again it's 467 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,119 Speaker 1: just a lot of pressure on him. So Atlanta's got 468 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,679 Speaker 1: to figure things out. You know, Atlanta, they have a 469 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:21,719 Speaker 1: stretch here. This is it. These next couple of games, right, 470 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: because they play the Orioles, they play the Angels, they 471 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,399 Speaker 1: play the Athletics, and I think the Cardinals in this 472 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: mix before they all star breaks. So they could still 473 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 1: chop away at that Wildcard. But if they don't, if 474 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 1: they go five hundred over that stretch, I think they 475 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 1: should call it a day, rapid flash. Thank you for resubbing. 476 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 1: We appreciate you. Let's get to some other questions we've 477 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:44,439 Speaker 1: got here. We have who dat who cheered? More stuff? 478 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 1: Chase Burns, Jacob Perez or Edward Cape. I think we 479 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 1: did that. 480 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:47,959 Speaker 2: We did that one. 481 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think we did that one. Mctunda ten team 482 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 1: head to head got offered Bishett and Jacob Azarowski for Lindor. No, 483 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:55,639 Speaker 1: not trading Lindor. 484 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a no, it's not too far off. It's 485 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 2: in the ballpark. But I want a little bit more. 486 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I get it. I understand Misrawski's fun, but let's 487 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 1: not get crazy here. 488 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 2: Miserowski's probably gonna have to miss time at some point 489 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 2: with how fast he throws. I hate to be Debbie Downer, 490 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 2: but like he's gonna need a surgery. He's throwing one 491 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 2: hundred and two every time, like it's gonna happen. 492 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 1: Oh, that's the whole thing. Like everyone's doing themselves over 493 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: Chase Burns and Miserowski and it's fun. Misterowski, especially right now, 494 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 1: is super fun. But if you really think he's not 495 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 1: headed towards Tommy John, you're crazy. Right now. This might 496 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 1: be the time too, if you have him as an 497 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:28,639 Speaker 1: asset in a Diynosa are keeper league where somebody's just 498 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:31,239 Speaker 1: gonna be willing to just throw the kitchen sink at 499 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 1: you in a trade. If you want to take that 500 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 1: and go win a league, do it. I would do 501 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:37,880 Speaker 1: it right now because he at some point he's gonna 502 00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 1: miss the season and change. It's just gonna It's just 503 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: a fact at some point that geek wants to know. 504 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 1: Stash Jilander or Lawler, Chase de Launder or Chase the 505 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 1: latter for sure. 506 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, Lawler the way they used him before, when they 507 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:52,440 Speaker 2: called him up, he didn't even play like. I think 508 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,120 Speaker 2: that'll be different next time. But I think the latter 509 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 2: is the better. Stash for sure. 510 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, we got a lot of the latter questions here. 511 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:58,719 Speaker 1: The answer is yes, stash him now if you can. 512 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,400 Speaker 2: You're going with the guy said he would be taking 513 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 2: hup a bench spot. You'ld be willant to burn a 514 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 2: bench spot for him. 515 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, because I think he's going to be up before 516 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:09,199 Speaker 1: the break. Okay, I think the I think the I 517 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 1: think there's desperation there, you know, Manzarto with all the 518 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: errors yesterday, Like you can't have that guy play in 519 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 1: the field. Carl Santana's four hundred years old, like you 520 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 1: got you got to give this team some kind of 521 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 1: life Angel theory? Should I trade or hold Carol? I 522 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:24,160 Speaker 1: have a solid outfield without him, then trade him, bring 523 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: in a pitcher, give yourself something like, don't wait a 524 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 1: month for him to come back. Could be a month, 525 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,159 Speaker 1: could be more. It might not look good when he 526 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,439 Speaker 1: comes back. Like there's so many variables here that I 527 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: just don't want to do it. One other rookie I 528 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: want to talk about too, right hand to prospect of 529 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,160 Speaker 1: the Yankees, And no, I'm not making this up. Get ready, 530 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:47,119 Speaker 1: everybody cam Schlitter through six shutout innings for triple A. 531 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 1: So Schlitter really, you know, is delivering. He really let 532 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: it all hang out. Six six righty four starts a 533 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: triple A. He's got a one sixty nine rat nine 534 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 1: to eight whip thirty three strikeouts to eight walks in 535 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 1: twenty one innings. So jokes aside, right now, the slitter 536 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: is a looks pretty good. It sounds like a pitch 537 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:10,880 Speaker 1: you make up the schlitter. 538 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, a slider and a splitter and a change up. 539 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 2: I think they're gonna just put Marcus Stroman in this 540 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 2: rotation when he's back and bring up I hate that, 541 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,160 Speaker 2: but that's probably what they're gonna do because he's getting paid. 542 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,160 Speaker 2: I mean, I hope the stream doesn't get fagged again today. 543 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,239 Speaker 2: It looks like we may well, you never know. 544 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: It was more like a split slitter, you know, sometimes 545 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 1: that happens. 546 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know that the Yankees are 547 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 2: gonna call him up this year and actually use him. 548 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 2: That's kind of the that's kind of the concern. Okay. 549 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: I'm just thinking of all the jokes that are log 550 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 1: Jimmy in my brain. You know, don't let the door 551 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:56,119 Speaker 1: hit you where the Lord shlit you. I don't know. 552 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,439 Speaker 1: You know what, we didn't get flagged for a Rusty Koon's. 553 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:02,679 Speaker 1: We got flagged because some sort of betting thing like that. 554 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 1: At the end of the day, that's how he got flagged. 555 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 1: I'm like, betting is fine. We do it. I mean, 556 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 1: we literally have a thing called betting pros Like I 557 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 1: don't understand, like, oh YouTube, silly goosey. Yeah, but choke aside, 558 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,400 Speaker 1: Cam schlitter right now has been really good, So got 559 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:19,400 Speaker 1: to make room for this litter. 560 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 2: They should, they should, but well they well the Yankees. 561 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 2: You think he could be called up this year? 562 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 1: I think the Yankee I think Aaron Boone would rather 563 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 1: have to try to what would be torture for Aaron 564 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 1: Boone trying to think like Aaron Boone would would probably 565 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 1: want to tear his acl playing basketball again like he 566 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 1: did that time when they went to then go get 567 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,160 Speaker 1: a rod then have to watch Marcus Stroman through another 568 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: pitch for the Yankees, That's what I think. Do you agree? 569 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,479 Speaker 2: I hope you're right. We will see what they end 570 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 2: up doing because Stroman's making how much money? Eighteen million dollars, 571 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 2: So I think they're probably gonna put him back in 572 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 2: the rotation when he's ready. But I'm with you, he 573 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,400 Speaker 2: doesn't deserve it. He shouldn't be there. But I think 574 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 2: that's the way the wind's blowing. 575 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 1: Well, you know, I hope it blows closer to the shlid, 576 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: because that's the guy I wanted to see in the Bronx. 577 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: Let's go three up and three down. Pete Alonzo three 578 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: for four with a double, Mets back on top, back 579 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 1: in first place. Let's go. Everyone's always god the doom 580 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: and gloom around the Mets when they lose a couple 581 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: of games. 582 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 2: It's hilarious. 583 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,160 Speaker 1: It's happened twice now, and I'm like, can we take 584 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 1: a breath? Like I know it, Mets fans, I get it. 585 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: It's been along and winding, tough road and you're used 586 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: to disappointment. Just just ride the wave. Just chill out, man, 587 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,400 Speaker 1: It's a long season. Junior camon Aro solo home run. 588 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 1: How good is kamon Aro been in the last six weeks? Man? 589 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 1: I mean, let's talk about him right now, right now? 590 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,560 Speaker 1: Is he a first round pick in twenty twenty six. 591 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 2: I don't think he's a first round pick. I think 592 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 2: he's like a second third. 593 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:50,159 Speaker 1: I don't think he's a third. I think he's a 594 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 1: second rounder at least. I think it's a phrase. Is 595 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 1: he a top twenty player next year? 596 00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:01,200 Speaker 2: It feels a little aggressive. I think that he's I 597 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 2: mean it's maybe close. Right now, he's thirty fifth to 598 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 2: date on the season, so yeah, he's probably close to it. 599 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:08,880 Speaker 2: If it's a fifteen teamer, I could see him going 600 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 2: in the I think he's like top. 601 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 1: How about this? How about this this year? Here's his 602 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 1: pace for this year? You're ready for Kemanaro's pace? You ready? 603 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,200 Speaker 1: You got? You got your socks on? Okay, because I 604 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 1: can blow blow your socks up. His pace is forty 605 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 1: one oh two ninety six runs scored, ten stolen bases. 606 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 1: What do you think? Sure he's not a first round pick? 607 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 1: Sounds like a first round pick to me. Let's say 608 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,680 Speaker 1: he ends up. Let's say he ends up with thirty four, uh, 609 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 1: thirty four, one hundred and ninety and seven steals. That 610 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 1: sounds like a first round pick to me, or close 611 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:41,119 Speaker 1: to it. 612 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 2: I still think he's probably closer to the second. I 613 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 2: wouldn't fight anybody if he was ending up in like 614 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 2: the back end there. But just thinking about that first round, 615 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 2: I don't know that he is going to get into 616 00:26:53,840 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 2: the top like Otani, Judge, Akunya, Ellie Wit, Jose Ramirez, Tucker, 617 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 2: would Carol Tatti, Sodo, Lindor like it's just really tough 618 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:07,919 Speaker 2: to get into that top group. But maybe I think 619 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 2: the second round. I think I think the second round 620 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,640 Speaker 2: makes sense for him, all. 621 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: Right, rehtt In. Shout out to Rehttin who just resubbed here. Also, 622 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 1: there's a question we were having trouble getting it up there. 623 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 1: But I'm sorry, written by Zach. That's what I'm sorry. 624 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 1: I read it wrong. When everything's written out for me, 625 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 1: I struggle. This is weird dyslexia, Like I am ron 626 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: Burgandy Written by Zack. Thank you for resubbing. But right 627 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: when I read it quick, it looked like, you know, 628 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 1: Rhett in biasaic to me, I don't know. These are problems. 629 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 1: Blame public schools. Is there any value I can get 630 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 1: a Jung Ho Lee? At the moment, I want to 631 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 1: drop him, but I feel like I can get something 632 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: for him, So Simpson, Brian Reynolds, any of those guys 633 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,120 Speaker 1: that those are the people they have in their outfield. 634 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, Jungle Lee is just fine. 635 00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: If there's something better on the waiver wire, I will 636 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,159 Speaker 1: I would drop him for a pitcher or a closer, 637 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 1: potentially something like that. It seems like a shallow league 638 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 1: kind of question here to me, But what do you 639 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: think about jung Huley rest of season? Just kind of 640 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: get that out there. 641 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't mind moving on from him. Like as 642 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 2: much as I like him as a player, he doesn't 643 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 2: provide a ton of fantasy juice, especially while the batting 644 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 2: average is what it is, two sixty seven babbit, But 645 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,120 Speaker 2: I think that turns around. So he probably hits two 646 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 2: seventy or two eighty rest of the way, but won't 647 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 2: be a lot of homers, won't be a lot of steals. 648 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 2: I think in a lot of cases you can move 649 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,160 Speaker 2: on and you have a solid outfield, So I don't 650 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 2: really mind it. 651 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: Uh. The other up here, Michael Bush went two for 652 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 1: four his thirteenth homer against the Cardinals. And where do 653 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: he do it? Bush Stadium? Gotta love that. That's a 654 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 1: first Bush going yard in Bush cam Schlider, dogs and 655 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: cats living together, mass hysteria. Carlos Santana oh for four 656 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 1: with three strikeouts. He leads the Downs. Jansen Junk was 657 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 1: junk no decision against the Giants. Boo five runs, eight hits, 658 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 1: three and two thirds. Oh wow, so much for Jansen Junk. 659 00:28:58,320 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: You look good in a couple of starts before that, 660 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 1: Hayden Birdsong. Oh, you think the Giants have some regrets there, 661 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 1: some regirts. Potentially seven runs on four hits. He gave up. 662 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 1: They give up the wrong guys, so they should have 663 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 1: given up bird Song and not Kyle Harrison. You think 664 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 1: in that trade, Joey, what do you think? 665 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 2: I don't know about that. I think they're probably about 666 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 2: even going forward. Maybe Harrison was a little more viable 667 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 2: just being the lefty, but I don't think either of 668 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 2: them are exceptional arms bird Song, like, considering the run 669 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 2: of opponents he's had recently, this has been really bad. Like, 670 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 2: I wouldn't mind moving on for him as well, for 671 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 2: talking at ten or a twelve teamer. 672 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna keep taking questions today too. It's 673 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 1: a fun Friday, we're having a good time. Welsh is away, 674 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 1: so we could do whatever the hell we want. Let's 675 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: get to some more discussions about the Giants actually, which 676 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 1: brings us to our Microsoft Chasing Challengers segment, everybody's favorite 677 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 1: part of the show.

I want to talk about the 685 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: Giants for a moment. Giants have had a really good season. 686 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 1: Logan web has been terrific. The ownership says, hey, we're 687 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 1: gonna go and take on a bunch of money from 688 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 1: Raffield Devers. We signed will you a Domas, We were 689 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 1: trying to sign Aaron Judge. Arson Judge tried to sign everybody, 690 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,520 Speaker 1: Carlos Correa. I remember that. Remember they tried to say 691 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: Carl's Correa. Nothing worked for the Giants. But finally they're 692 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 1: kind of figuring things out. But there's still six and 693 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 1: a half games behind the Dodgers despite all of that. 694 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: And I look at the pitching staff and after Webb 695 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 1: and I know Robbie Ray's pitched really well. I definitely 696 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 1: have my concerns about what's going on. I think the Giants, 697 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 1: if they're really serious, they can't rely on Verlander and 698 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 1: bird Song at the end of this rotation, they just 699 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:57,720 Speaker 1: can't do it, So we got to look somewhere else. 700 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,120 Speaker 1: I think maybe the Giants, if they're truly serious, and 701 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: they must because they're only a half game out of 702 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: the Wildcard, maybe they should be out there pounding the 703 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 1: payment for another starting pitcher, because I don't think what 704 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,479 Speaker 1: they've got currently constituted the back end at four and 705 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 1: five are really enough for them. You hope that the 706 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 1: Bats can come around a little bit, but maybe, just maybe, 707 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 1: if you're the San Francisco Giants, you sense a little 708 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 1: bit of a weakness here on the Dodgers, especially with 709 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: all the pitching injuries they've had, that if you could 710 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 1: just get to the playoffs and get into a short series, 711 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 1: maybe you could take out the Dodgers. I don't think 712 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 1: it's impossible. Heck, the Padres almost did it last year. 713 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 1: So those are the challenges facing the San Francisco Giants, 714 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 1: who are doing a good job. Giants fans should be 715 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 1: very happy with what the ownership has done there.

Joe Carlos Mendoza said that 722 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 1: Griffin Canning may have suffered achilles injury, and it certainly 723 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 1: did look like it. It was terrible looking, very sad. 724 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: Griffin Canning has been terrific this year for the Mets, 725 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: I mean complete turnaround for him. So again, it's like 726 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 1: when it rains of poors and right now it is 727 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 1: raining cats and dogs and the Mets healthy rotation because 728 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 1: it has gone from the top the healthiest to now 729 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 1: we're like, uh, when is seaum and I coming back? 730 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 1: Is he coming back next week? 731 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 2: Oh? 732 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 1: My god, I hope. So, so what do you make 733 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 1: out of this latest injury and what the Mets should 734 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 1: do after it? 735 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 2: Now, Well, didn't and I have some kind of setback. 736 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 2: Didn't they just push him back or something? 737 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,600 Speaker 1: He had loose bodies in his elbow? So basically what 738 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 1: they do for that is they give you a courtzone 739 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 1: shot and they say suck it up, buttercup. That's basically 740 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 1: what they say. And then in the off season you 741 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 1: have that surgery to remove the loose bodies and get 742 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: recover and you're fine. Ron Darling on the broadcast, you 743 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 1: pitched for many years, very good pitcher in the major leagues. 744 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 1: He had it twice and he said, yeah, it's a 745 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: pain tolerance thing and he should be able to tolerate it basically. 746 00:32:57,920 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 1: But what do you expect. He's an eighty six met 747 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 1: So all those guys were built a little differently. 748 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 2: I don't know, man, what's like if I'm counting on 749 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:09,560 Speaker 2: Manaia to throw quality innings for the match or for 750 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 2: my fantasy teams, you should probably make alternative, alternative arrangements. 751 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 2: At this point, I don't know really what they're gonna get. 752 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 2: I mean, we talked yesterday about the potential for Jacob 753 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 2: de gram reunion. Maybe they go after a Keller or 754 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 2: another name on the market, Sandy maybe, but they need 755 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 2: some reinforcements At this point. McGill gone, code, I sanga, 756 00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 2: who knows when he's coming back? Man, who knows when 757 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 2: exactly he'll be around and what he'll look like. I 758 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:35,840 Speaker 2: think they need to make when. 759 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 1: I is playing catch Thursday, so the fact that he's 760 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:40,880 Speaker 1: playing catch again. You hope that he goes back out 761 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: on the rehub. I'm expecting him again like the glassdown play, 762 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 1: like he's back after the All Star break. 763 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 2: I don't think they can have Paul Blackburn starting meaningful 764 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 2: games down the stretch. I think that needs to stop. 765 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 2: That needs to change. 766 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 1: Well and Montas, I mean, like, I'm still in awe 767 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 1: of what I saw with Frankie Montes. If Montas can 768 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 1: well in thestead, that's huge. If they can get Manaya back, 769 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 1: I can get about before the All Star break awesome, 770 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 1: like he was getting real close and until the setback, 771 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:11,040 Speaker 1: So I can only imagine the setback is gonna pus 772 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 1: him til after the All Star break. Now, So that's fine, 773 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,239 Speaker 1: Like I'm okay with that, especially because he had so 774 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 1: many innings last year. That's the other thing too, seem 775 00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:21,719 Speaker 1: and I had a giant amount of innings plus all 776 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 1: the postseason innings, and those were laborious postseason things. He 777 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,280 Speaker 1: was in some big pressure situations and he performed very well. 778 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 1: So I could see them putting that off Senga. You 779 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:33,880 Speaker 1: can hope that you get Sanga back too. I just 780 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:35,799 Speaker 1: don't know if that's enough. Like I think you need 781 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 1: another insurance policy. I don't know who that is, but 782 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 1: I think the Mets would be wise to go all 783 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 1: in and make a splash and do something there. I 784 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,799 Speaker 1: think that's what we should do. All right, let's do 785 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:49,800 Speaker 1: the next bit here for injuries. Also, Mark Viento's was 786 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 1: supposed to be activated yesterday, but it's gonna be activated 787 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:55,279 Speaker 1: to today instead. Jose Ramirez left the game yesterday. I 788 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,720 Speaker 1: got hit on the arm. It was a bruise. Everything 789 00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: was checked out. I don't know if he's get into 790 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 1: the line up today or all of those lines that 791 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,439 Speaker 1: come out yet since we started, but he's day to day, 792 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 1: so maybe he sits today and back by Saturday. We'll see. 793 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,360 Speaker 1: Vlad Guerrero Junior also got hit. A lot lots of 794 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 1: guys getting hit yesterday, Joe, what'd you think of all 795 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:17,319 Speaker 1: the uh, all the guys getting dinged yesterday? Big time 796 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:19,440 Speaker 1: players too, Vladdie and Jose Ramira. 797 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 2: Well, they hit Vlattie two days in a row. So 798 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 2: Gosman went out there and threw a fastball at Jay 799 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:27,880 Speaker 2: rams side and he ended up like moving his arm 800 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 2: and it hit him in the arm a little bit. 801 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:32,840 Speaker 2: But I kind of like it. Maybe he's just come on, 802 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:34,360 Speaker 2: Blue Jays fan. I'll be a little bit biased in 803 00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 2: the situation, but like, if you're gonna throw at our 804 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 2: star player two days in a row, then we're gonna 805 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 2: throw out your star player. That's just the way it works. 806 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 2: That's baseball, old school baseball. 807 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: Old school baseball. Okay, let's get to cave Povich. Will 808 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 1: had five runs in a rehab start. Not good, three 809 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 1: of them earned. Bryce Harper took seventy five swings off 810 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 1: a pitching machine. That's good. Royce Lewis has been out 811 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 1: since June thirteenth with a strain hamstring. He is starting 812 00:35:56,080 --> 00:36:00,399 Speaker 1: his rehab today, so what could go wrong? Zach Off 813 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 1: one two for four into rehab with two doubles, so 814 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,359 Speaker 1: who's hoping to get back soon? To the Athletics, Lance 815 00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 1: mccullors could return to the rotation tomorrow. Would you start 816 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 1: Lance mccullor is coming off that foot issue tomorrow. If 817 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 1: you had him on your roster. 818 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:18,759 Speaker 2: Joe tomorrow would be mmm, Cubbies. I don't know, man, 819 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 2: I don't know if I could do that first time 820 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:22,759 Speaker 2: out against the high powered offense. I think I'd pass 821 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:23,800 Speaker 2: passer tomorrow. 822 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:27,800 Speaker 1: Okay, and lastly, Christian Javier through batting practice on Wednesday. 823 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:31,240 Speaker 1: The hope is he comes back on in sometime in August. 824 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 1: I think this is what they're looking for. That brings 825 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 1: us to the best bets of the day with Joey 826 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:40,680 Speaker 1: p and Joey Oh, that's right, all the joes. Joel 827 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:42,359 Speaker 1: Rico is going to show you his O face during 828 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 1: the bets today. Oh oh, let's get to Seattle on 829 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:48,919 Speaker 1: the moneyline minus one twelve. Logan Gilbert on the mount 830 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 1: against Nadye Evaldi in his return. I was just gonna 831 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:53,799 Speaker 1: take my shot here. I mean, Logan Gilbert spectacular. I'm 832 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 1: getting just barely juice on this one. I'll flip the 833 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:59,320 Speaker 1: coin in honor of Logan Gilbert and take a shot 834 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 1: here with Seattle, especially that offense with cal Rawly's been 835 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:06,239 Speaker 1: on fire. So let's do that. Let's think that Nadiavaldi's 836 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 1: probably a four inning starter today, maybe maybe five, probably 837 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 1: more like four. Let's get into that Texas bullpen Wan 838 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 1: Soto against the Pittsburgh Pirates in Pittsburgh to driving a 839 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,120 Speaker 1: run plus one thirty yes please, and Aaron Judge against 840 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,239 Speaker 1: the Athletics this weekend. Get ready, boys and girls, and 841 00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:23,560 Speaker 1: other hot streaks coming against the Athletics here minus one 842 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 1: ten to drive in a run two. So, Joe Rico, 843 00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:27,360 Speaker 1: what do you have lined up for the boys and 844 00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,319 Speaker 1: girls on a fun Friday with bets? 845 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 2: So I'm starting off with Brian Bao, who has been 846 00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:34,680 Speaker 2: quite a bit better as of late, under one and 847 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,000 Speaker 2: a half walks. You're getting it at plus one twenty. Now, 848 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 2: his command can be something that's a little shaky at times, 849 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 2: but if you're looking over the course of the month 850 00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 2: of June, Toronto is walking less than any other team 851 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:45,719 Speaker 2: in baseball to six and a half percent, So I 852 00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 2: feel pretty good about that one at plus money. A 853 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:49,960 Speaker 2: little bit on the safer side with landon Route over 854 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 2: four and a half strikeouts going up against the White 855 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:54,319 Speaker 2: Sox today, a team that strikes out quite a bit. 856 00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 2: They're not the top strikeout team in the league, but 857 00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 2: if you're just looking at June, the fourth worst strikeout 858 00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 2: rate at twenty five point eight percent, So I feel 859 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 2: pretty good about that one as well. And then Sunny Gray. 860 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:06,239 Speaker 2: I'm doing a little bit of a parlay here just 861 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 2: to get the better line. Sonny Gray over five and 862 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,880 Speaker 2: a half strikeouts against Cleveland and their future to offense 863 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 2: and also going with the Cardinals money line in that 864 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,399 Speaker 2: one for plus one ninety so like in all three 865 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 2: of those, Brian Bayo under one and a half, Walks 866 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:19,319 Speaker 2: landon Route over four and a half strikeouts, and then 867 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:21,719 Speaker 2: Sonny Gray over five and a half k's combined with 868 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:23,000 Speaker 2: the Cardinals money line. 869 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:26,400 Speaker 1: Remember when you're betting, bet responsibly and also go do 870 00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,200 Speaker 1: it over at fantasypros dot Com slash leading Off bet 871 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 1: five bucks, win two fifty in bonus bets when your 872 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 1: first bet hits only at FanDuel at Fantasypros dot Com 873 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 1: slash Leading Off go use it today and use the 874 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:40,719 Speaker 1: Betting Pros tools too.

Ever, jo Rico, are you 882 00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:00,919 Speaker 1: calling home runs? Calling you out? 883 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 2: I called him not every single day. I missed a 884 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:06,719 Speaker 2: lot of time earlier in the year, and I am 885 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 2: so far behind at this point that I need, like 886 00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:11,680 Speaker 2: some Carlos Delgatto for home run games to get back 887 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:12,359 Speaker 2: into the mix here. 888 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:15,520 Speaker 1: So I need some miracles to Carlos Delgatto was a 889 00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:16,359 Speaker 1: catcher when he came up. 890 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 2: Remember that, I adored him. He was technically on the 891 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:21,399 Speaker 2: ninety three World Series team and he didn't. I don't 892 00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 2: think he played in the playoffs, but I believe he 893 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 2: got a ring for that as a catcher, as the 894 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:26,880 Speaker 2: backup catcher to Pat Borders. 895 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,279 Speaker 1: Was I did not really have Pat Borders would have 896 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 1: been the catcher. Yeah, Kelly Gruber, Pat Borders, John Olarude 897 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:33,120 Speaker 1: Devon White. 898 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 2: N three team man, Ricky Henderson, Dave Winfield like that, 899 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,239 Speaker 2: ninety three team, Jack Morris, Steve, like that, what a 900 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 2: team Dave Steve. 901 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,319 Speaker 1: Had Dave Steve pitched in New York or Chicago or 902 00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:49,279 Speaker 1: even La, Dave Steve probably would be in the Hall 903 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 1: of Fame. Dave Steve was a terrific pitcher, but he 904 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 1: just he pitched in Toronto, and I never thought he 905 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 1: got the credit he deserved. Like I used to love 906 00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:00,440 Speaker 1: to watch that guy pitch. That guy was trum amendous 907 00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:03,880 Speaker 1: and I'm surprised. I'm delighted and surprised that you have 908 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:07,120 Speaker 1: such a lord there because you were were even born then, 909 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:08,319 Speaker 1: like barely, Like. 910 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:10,320 Speaker 2: No, I wasn't a live for the World Series teams, 911 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 2: but I am as a baseball I wouldn't say I'm 912 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:16,120 Speaker 2: a historian, butever students of the game, and especially for 913 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 2: my Welsh as an idiot. 914 00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:20,279 Speaker 1: You know, I love Welsh, but he's an idiot. You 915 00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,440 Speaker 1: mentioned something. He's like, I wasn't even born. I'm like, 916 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 1: I don't care.

You know, 919 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:30,920 Speaker 2: that's right. You know things are making up. 920 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:35,279 Speaker 1: It is the internet. Now we're really gonna get flagged here. 921 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 1: I'm going this weekend for a home run call with 922 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 1: Aaron Judge that's right in his ballpark against the Athletics. 923 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 1: They can't pitch it all. Give me a couple of 924 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:46,520 Speaker 1: home runs. Get me on that board, Aaron Judge, get 925 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 1: me on that board.

You know, lefty versus righty. Suzuki's hit 932 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,879 Speaker 2: three home runs this week.

So I'll take that one 934 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:10,080 Speaker 2: and I believe it's plus three seventy five depending on 935 00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 2: your book. 936 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,279 Speaker 1: Fun show today.
