Speaker 1: the Cracker Jacks, all of our good friends here talking.

7
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,760
Speaker 1: It's a baseball We've got lots of stuff to talk

8
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:26,600
Speaker 1: about from yesterday with I was gonna be a boring

9
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 1: old slate. Well it turned out to be a slugfest

10
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 1: in Saint Louis, so a lot to talk about there. Well,

11
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 1: of course, have some rookie lookies to talk about. We

12
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 1: of course we'll have a little DFS, a little wagering,

13
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 1: a little of everything Welsh as we head into the

14
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,280
Speaker 1: weekend and Welsh. I think the big thing to start

15
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 1: with is obviously something amazing happened, something magical yesterday. Not

16
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,159
Speaker 1: only did you get a home run call correct, I

17
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,479
Speaker 1: got a home run call correct? Yours of course was

18
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 1: Max Munsey, which was perfect and Max Munsey homerd wait

19
00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 1: for it off Genesis Cabrera yesterday. I mean, I don't

20
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: think we could write a better script coming into Friday,

21
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 1: could we?

22
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,399
Speaker 2: No, that was I didn't even know that it was

23
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 2: Genesis Cabrera until we have a little chat between you

24
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 2: and myself, Mayor and Kelly Kirby. And when I saw

25
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 2: it blowing up in there, I was like, oh, wow,

26
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 2: this is magic and this is the first time, and

27
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 2: I mean, we'd have to go get the statisticians to

28
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 2: go and look, when's the last time you and I

29
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 2: both had a home run call together? Hasn't happened this year?

30
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 1: If it did, it happened in April. I mean, I

31
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,639
Speaker 1: don't think it has. I think the first I may.

32
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 2: I hit none in April pretty much. So I don't know, man,

33
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,320
Speaker 2: I don't think we've done it this year, and god

34
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 2: knows when it was last year. So that was a miracle.

35
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 2: Genesis Cabrera showing up was magical. So thank you, Genesis,

36
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 2: Thank you.

37
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I didn't I saw the monthly home run,

38
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: but I know who was off of them. This morning,

39
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: I was watching a little quick pitch kind of getting

40
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 1: caught up on the things that went on, and uh,

41
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: and there it was. There was Justice Cabrera and Max Monty,

42
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: and I was like this is just perfect. This is

43
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: a beautiful way to end the week after a fun week,

44
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: and we can you know, we'll talk about that. Let's

45
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 1: talk about also Noan Aeronado going yard in that game too.

46
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:13,919
Speaker 1: He has been red hot Wilson Contreras twice with the

47
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 1: home runs. The Burger phone was getting used a lot.

48
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 1: Yesterday Adam Wainwright had to dial up the Burger phone.

49
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: But what in the hell is going on? It's funny

50
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 1: was because we kept talking about No. One Aeronaudo. What

51
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 1: a good bilo he was in my home league. I

52
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 1: saw him trying to get traded like every deal it

53
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: was like No One Aeronado, No Onen Ernaudo try to

54
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 1: like get shopped around. I couldn't believe it. And I'm like,

55
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 1: why are people trying to get rid of this guy?

56
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: He's just in a slump, Like just be patient with

57
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,959
Speaker 1: this dude. But man, has this guy exploded? So is

58
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:44,679
Speaker 1: Saint Louis now? Saint Louis still needs to get better

59
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: pitching That still has to happen. But do you think

60
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: Saint Louis has turned a corner here in these last

61
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 1: few days?

62
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 2: Yeah? I think offensively they're finding their footing. Goldie's been

63
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 2: locked in. They're still kind of moving around some of

64
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 2: the pieces. You know, I had talked about maybe trading

65
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 2: Tommy Edmund. Edmond has been pretty solid. Their outfield is

66
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 2: still pieced together. Lars Nootbar again, I kind of been

67
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,359
Speaker 2: targeting a lot of Cardinals. Lars Zoopar was another one

68
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 2: to buy. He's been kind of heating up. And with

69
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 2: the whole pitching situation, We're gonna see how it all

70
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 2: lays out. But they they kind of gave off and

71
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 2: on like where Matthew Libertor is going to go.

72
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 1: They're like, well, we.

73
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 2: Think he's gonna get another start, he's gonna stay with

74
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 2: the team. He might be bullpen, which would be garbage.

75
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 2: But I can't imagine they're gonna be able to keep

76
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 2: him bullpen after that performance. So we'll have to kind

77
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 2: of see what happens with Libertory. But I think this

78
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 2: whole team has turned the corner around. Goodbyes overall. And also,

79
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 2: I don't know if you've looked Jordan Walker struggling in

80
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 2: the miners too.

81
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 1: I do not been good you brought that up because

82
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: I haven't seen that, and and sometimes that happens you know,

83
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 1: the guys get frustrated. They you know, I don't want

84
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: to say they pout, but they it does knock their confidence.

85
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,119
Speaker 1: Sometimes some guys respond, you know, they they get sat down,

86
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 1: they come right back. Well, we're talking about one of

87
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: those guys who was kind of teetering on that edge.

88
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: One more big note from that game, Freddie free Minute

89
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: of Grand Slam was a three hundredth career home run

90
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: for Freddy Freeman. Couldn't hapen to a better guy like

91
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 1: it's Freddy Freeman, the most likable guy in baseball. I

92
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: feel like he is because I love.

93
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,119
Speaker 2: He's in that general vicinity. Yeah, he's up there.

94
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: He's terrific. Good for him, three hundred, Good for you. Now,

95
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 1: more to the point going into the season, Welsh, you know,

96
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,719
Speaker 1: we did a lot of betting pro shows together. We

97
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: had a lot of conversations about the Dodgers and my

98
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: concern for the back end of his rotation, and also,

99
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not a big Julio Urius guy. And

100
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: obviously his last start not good. Obviously May's injury is

101
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 1: a problem. Obviously cinderguard is cinderguard. I know we talked

102
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 1: about it yesterday. I'm gonna keep driving this home. The

103
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 1: Dodgers got to figure something out. And I know that

104
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: part of that figuring out is gonna be Dave Roberts

105
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 1: talking about Gavin Stone that he quote makes sense end

106
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: quote to be the guy who replaced us in May.

107
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: So that's gonna happen. So Stone is out there in

108
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 1: your leagues, and I imagine he probably is in most

109
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 1: I imagine he's not rostered. I have to look up

110
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 1: the number. I'll take a look at it. But in

111
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 1: your opinion this weekend, he didn't make my waiver wire

112
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 1: video at the time. Again, Gavin Stone's a guy that

113
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 1: you know we're not as high on necessarily. But how

114
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: much equity would you put into Gavin Stone, considering right

115
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 1: now if you're looking to get him off the waiver wire?

116
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: Looking at his roster verstagel for let up a second.

117
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,840
Speaker 1: He is thirty five percent roster, so still available in

118
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 1: almost sixty five percent of leagues.

119
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 2: Well, a great question might be Gavin Stone or Matthew

120
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 2: Libertre And I tell you, well, you know what, I

121
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 2: almost might lean in the other direction, because I still

122
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 2: think the Cardinals are making horrifically bad decisions, and by

123
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,039
Speaker 2: not making a commitment. I don't know what they're gonna

124
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 2: do with Libertory. They're gonna put him in the bullpen

125
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 2: long relief for like three or four weeks and put

126
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 2: him up. If Gavin Stone does struggle that I have mentioned,

127
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,039
Speaker 2: they can easily go in another direction. Here's what I'll say.

128
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 2: I think they both are in the exact same, similar

129
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 2: fab range. I think they should go about the same price,

130
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 2: whatever that ends up being, whatever investment you guys put in.

131
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 2: I think they should go about the same because they

132
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,159
Speaker 2: both have they both have an parent risk, and Gavin

133
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 2: Stone found himself a little bit. He lives off of

134
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 2: this big change up, the splittery changeup that he's got,

135
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 2: which could induce some big whiffs if he can command

136
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:14,559
Speaker 2: the fastball. So I kind of almost tiny bit side

137
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 2: on maybe Gavin Stone with all the issues they have,

138
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:18,479
Speaker 2: because they might experiment with some other guys and he

139
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 2: might be locked up. But like I said, I think

140
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,719
Speaker 2: both of these guys probably should be valued about the same,

141
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 2: which we totally wouldn't have said before the season.

142
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:33,160
Speaker 1: That is also fair. Angelo is saying Angelo mona samanta Jenaton,

143
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,159
Speaker 1: Angelo says Otani to the Cardinals. That's what he says,

144
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 1: that's my best Tony Danza voice. Here's the thing, though,

145
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 1: the Cardinals, this would have to be a rental if

146
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 1: they went after Otani because it would probably cost them.

147
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:49,719
Speaker 1: I would imagine libertore And and Jordan Walker. I go, oh,

148
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:51,600
Speaker 1: I mean, if I'm then that's what I'm asking for.

149
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: That's a lot to give up for a rental. And

150
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,160
Speaker 1: I don't think the Cardinals have the funds after paying

151
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 1: Aeronauto and gold Schmidt.

152
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,679
Speaker 2: To imagine the cardinal's trying to make the decision between

153
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,799
Speaker 2: a guy that can hit and pitch. They their brains

154
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 2: would explode at the thought of a guy that wants

155
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,040
Speaker 2: to hit on the same day that he's pitching. There's

156
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 2: no way they can make those decisions. I will put

157
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 2: a zero point zero percent chance that Otani is ever

158
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:14,400
Speaker 2: a Cardinal.

159
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's probably a unlikely thing. I'm gonna

160
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 1: say this too. You know, it feels like, you know,

161
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 1: I don't think this is intentional, but you know, obviously

162
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 1: what's going on with Otani. Had he not you know,

163
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: had the National League not adopted the DH to be

164
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 1: a very different set of circumstances. I feel like too,

165
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 1: for him, you know, they's really doubled his market potential,

166
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: and that's good for baseball. It's it's good for Otani

167
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 1: anybody else who comes along in the next ten years

168
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 1: who can do anything close to what he's doing. And

169
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: I wonder if teams are gonna start to value that

170
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 1: more because it's something you do see in college baseball

171
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: still to a certain degree, not as much, but you'll

172
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 1: see some of these guys you know who can do both.

173
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 1: You've seen them get drafted in the last couple of years.

174
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 2: There's actually a guy right now named Bryce Eldridge who

175
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 2: Joe Noyle was just talking about, who has a can

176
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 2: hit ninety seven and putting up one ten Max Eves.

177
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 1: To me, if I'm an organization, I look at that

178
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: and saying, hey, this is a good investment long term

179
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 1: because I can get two players in one so fisically

180
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 1: it's more responsible. And I think you're gonna see other

181
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 1: teams start to look for those kind of guys. But

182
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 1: teams have to.

183
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 2: Learn to develop and they can't and they I mean

184
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 2: Jake Cronilworth was like a two way player. Brendan McKay

185
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 2: with the Rays was one of those guys teams don't

186
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 2: know how to manage these guys. There was a guy,

187
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 2: Bubba Chandler in the pirate system right now, who I

188
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 2: think he's just finally made the full commitment. Last year

189
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 2: he was hitting. The Giants have one right now in

190
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 2: Reggie Crawford. Teams don't know how to manage these guys.

191
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 2: So I agree this would be a more cost efficient

192
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 2: way for teams to approach if players could do it.

193
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 2: But no one knows how to properly develop these players.

194
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 2: And I just wanted to say when the Atani stuff,

195
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 2: you say he doubled his options, but I think his

196
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 2: options went from you know, two to three or two

197
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 2: to four maximum. Like it's fun to be like, oh,

198
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 2: my team could get him and all the oriole Oh

199
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 2: he's not. He's gonna be like a met he's gonna

200
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,560
Speaker 2: be a Yankee, he's gonna be a Dodger, he's going

201
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 2: to be an Angel. Like those are the teams. Like

202
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 2: maybe you can throw in the Mariners, but like we're

203
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 2: just being silly. It's going to go to one of

204
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 2: the huge, huge dollar teams and we all know it.

205
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like a fun game of survivor. And I

206
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,199
Speaker 1: see Razor talking about survivor in the chat here about

207
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 1: yeah who went home and some fun stuff there. So yes,

208
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: I was not surprised who went home, but I was

209
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: rooting for somebody else to go home because there's a

210
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 1: crazy woman on that island and they're crazy if they don't.

211
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 2: Are you're talking about, Oh you turn that into surviving.

212
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm about survivor there. I'm trying to, you know,

213
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: the best I can. It's Friday. It's Friday. Mister Cortez

214
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 1: gave up two runs and six things and then Carlos

215
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 1: Esteveznach's tenth save. He was on the waiver wire pickup

216
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: video a couple weeks ago, so hopefully you nabbed him

217
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 1: because he was flowing out there a lot longer than

218
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 1: he should have been. That was shocked. It was only

219
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 1: fifty percent of leagues even a couple of year weeks ago.

220
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 1: Adie Ruschman had to run home run and he walked twice.

221
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 1: A good day for Rutchman. He continues to be great.

222
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 1: We're also seeing I feel like a resurgence is the

223
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 1: offensive catcher this year. You know, between Murphee, between Rutchman,

224
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 1: we've got a little bit more of that, you know, Alvarez.

225
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:06,719
Speaker 1: The Mets starting to hit a little bit. Now. I

226
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,079
Speaker 1: don't know what's gonna happen with Alvarez necessarily because we

227
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,719
Speaker 1: see Gary Sanchez is gonna be brought up from the

228
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 1: minor league. So do you think that Alvarez is the

229
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: guy that gets sent down? Would that be kind of

230
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: counterproductive at this point?

231
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 2: I mean, I think Navarrees is coming back. He's not

232
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 2: back yet, I don't.

233
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 1: Believe so he's out for weeks still.

234
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, but when he comes back, that'll be probably Gary

235
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 2: Sanchez going I don't I don't know's it's a great question.

236
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 2: I mean, the Mets, what are they gonna do if Nevaaz.

237
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 1: I mean, is a great defensive catcher, but he can't

238
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 1: hit water if he fill out of voat. So to

239
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 1: get rid of Alvarez right now when you need offense,

240
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 1: I think would be very short sighted. But if you

241
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 1: have Alvarez as your standalone catcher right now today, you

242
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:50,439
Speaker 1: gotta start looking around for possibly another option the Mets.

243
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 2: The Mets might be a team that really need to

244
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 2: look at themselves and figure out where the trademarket is

245
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,959
Speaker 2: and maybe open up that Pandora's box because they got

246
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 2: all these pieces that are just like, Okay, you're right

247
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 2: when Navarus comes back, you got Nedo. What do you

248
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 2: do with Alvarez? You can't dh him really on opposite

249
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 2: days because you've got Vento's and Baby up, and they're

250
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 2: trying to figure out vogel Buck. They got too many

251
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 2: Ronnie Mauricio sitting out there, They've got two. They have

252
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 2: riches that are too close to the majors that if

253
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 2: they've got deficiencies in other spots, they really should look

254
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 2: to maybe move something, move one of these guys. Maybe

255
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,520
Speaker 2: it's Alvarez, by the way, and not love blatantly Vento's

256
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,319
Speaker 2: or Baby, but I do think that's something that that

257
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 2: team should, especially with the money that they spend, they should.

258
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 1: That's why I keep coming back to the Mets. The

259
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 1: Mets have the need for Ottani. The Mets have the

260
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 1: prospects though Otani, the Mets have the will to lock

261
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,679
Speaker 1: him up long term. Money is no object to Steve Cohen.

262
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:41,439
Speaker 1: That's why everyone keep saying all the gains stay on

263
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 1: the West Coast. I just don't think it's gonna happen.

264
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 1: I really don't. We'll see at the end. I love this.

265
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 1: It's my favorite thing the first time, long times, Josh Dodd.

266
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 1: I've listened to every single episode of Leading Off, but

267
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 1: never been here live among the Peanuts and the Cracker Jacks.

268
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 1: Keep up the good work, Joe and Chris. Your show

269
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: makes my daily commute tolerable. Josh, We've been called tolerable

270
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: many times in our life, both Welsh and myself. But

271
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: thank you, yes, hey, tolerable. Take out the trash, will

272
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,959
Speaker 1: you please? But Josh, all joking aside, thanks for listening,

273
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 1: and this is great. I love when people join us

274
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 1: here live in the chat. It's fun to hang out here.

275
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,599
Speaker 1: The the Penis and Cracker tracks are amazing. Let's do

276
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 1: a little rookie lookie. So according to Cardinals manager Very Cardinals,

277
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 1: every show today for all you Saint Louis fans Thursday.

278
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 1: Matthew Liberator will start next week, he said yesterday. So

279
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 1: that is good. We were speculating will he make a

280
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 1: second start. We was gonna work out of the bullpend. No,

281
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 1: he will make a start in the road. Trip Uri

282
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 1: Perez got's first major league win. Congratulations son, good job.

283
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 1: And then Tosh Bradley did get back. Now he struggled

284
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,439
Speaker 1: in the beginning I gave up two runs over five

285
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,840
Speaker 1: innings that he did settle down a little bit. So overall,

286
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 1: I think, you know, if you stayed away, you were

287
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: probably happy. If you had to start him, you probably

288
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,679
Speaker 1: looked and said, Okay, it wasn't so bad. I think

289
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,680
Speaker 1: that's kind of the takeaway from Tosh. He wasn't what

290
00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 1: he looked like in the minor leagues, that's for sure.

291
00:12:59,320 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 1: That's good.

292
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, well you kind of saw the stuff. You saw

293
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:03,839
Speaker 2: the things that we were a little bit worried about

294
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 2: with him. The command was a little sit spotty, the

295
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 2: cutter wasn't hitting where he needed it to go. But

296
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:10,719
Speaker 2: you know, he was able to get away with a

297
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,199
Speaker 2: lot of stuff. The changeup was going. You just you

298
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 2: wish to see it a little bit more of the curveball.

299
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 2: But I think overall pretty good. And by the way,

300
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,960
Speaker 2: we can also say goodbye officially to Uri pres strikeout

301
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 2: props being four and a half. I think the last

302
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 2: two have been four and a half. They have smacked both,

303
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 2: I think in the third inning, so we can say

304
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 2: bye bye to those. Those were nice while we had them.

305
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: And Cody, you're right, I did say this about Wan

306
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: Soda that he would be a Met eventually, because I

307
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 1: could tell Steve Cohen really liked Wan Soto, but at

308
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 1: the time they didn't want to move the prospects. And

309
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 1: I told you the problem was they were never going

310
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 1: to trade him in the division, so I knew he

311
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,679
Speaker 1: wasn't going to be via trade. And if the Mets

312
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: don't get Otani, they will go after Wan Soda in

313
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 1: free agency. It's going to be one of those two

314
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,560
Speaker 1: guys for sure. So Cody, you're right, I did say

315
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:57,080
Speaker 1: Soda will be a Met. There's still time for that

316
00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 1: to happen. But there's no way the National is going

317
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 1: to trade him to the Mets. Like that was going

318
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,200
Speaker 1: to happen. They would have had such a massive overpaid.

319
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 1: It's never ever going to be the case. All right,

320
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: Let's go to one more here. Anthony Volpi, who we

321
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 1: were talking about, was on the precipice got bench two

322
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 1: days ago. Yesterday hit a home run. Maybe this burns him.

323
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 1: I still say it's he's a great bilo across the board.

324
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 1: I still believe in Anthony Volpe despite the struggles, and

325
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 1: I think it's great that they're sticking with him injury front.

326
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 1: Tommy Edmund removed yesterday lower abdomen soreness. That sounds painful.

327
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: Jared Walsh, who's been dealing with chronic migraines and headache issues.

328
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 1: He went three for three with a pair of walks

329
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 1: yesterday in a rehab assignment. So if you're desperate for

330
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 1: some corner help in a deeper league, maybe Jared Walsh

331
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 1: can give you a little bit of a help if

332
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: he is healthy. Seth Lugo is not healthy. He goes

333
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 1: onto the aio with a calf strain. Aaron Savali three

334
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: scoreless innings on Thursday, so he is starting to get

335
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 1: closer to returning. So Indians Rock Indians.

336
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 2: Oh my god, let's get on. Joe remember my mistake

337
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 2: last week? Oh oh, Chat, uh oh oh? Joe is

338
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 2: the team Joe?

339
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 1: What was it? Well, they were the Cleveland Indians, so

340
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 1: at one point they were I don't think it's the

341
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 1: same thing, Chat, I don't think it's the same thing.

342
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 2: I think you're just worse. I think your's just worse

343
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 2: than what they were called.

344
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 1: It wasn't like I said something like I called them.

345
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 2: I just said the wrong name. I didn't say a

346
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 2: name that was canceled. Joe. This chat is garbage, by

347
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 2: the way, not one person getting on your case about

348
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,119
Speaker 2: it in this chat I'm looking at because.

349
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 1: Mine, Mine was an honest point that I made one

350
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 1: time and called myself. You made it eight times one small.

351
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 2: But again, it wasn't.

352
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 1: Hard to lead you out of it. I think so hard.

353
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: I was like, are you sure anyway?

354
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 2: The Guardians you wanted to ask who's going on?

355
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 1: We ask who gets bounced when Savali.

356
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 2: Comes back, Peyton, Battonfield. That's it's an easy one that

357
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 2: that's the one that we've known that was is gonna

358
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 2: go away. The bigger tests are going to be coming

359
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 2: up here quickly. When trist McKenzie is available and comes back,

360
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 2: who's going to get who's gonna kick rocks? And I

361
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 2: think that's gonna be my gut, says caw Kwan Trill.

362
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 2: He should go far away, far far away, and that's

363
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 2: going to be your rotation. That would be the two

364
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 2: rookies Savallee, McKenzie and Bieber. But you know, listen, they

365
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 2: Savally I don't think should be guaranteed anything either. And

366
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 2: you have Gavin Williams in the in the wings, so

367
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,359
Speaker 2: a lot of options for them. But yeah, Peyton Battonfield

368
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 2: is going to be saying bye bye.

369
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 1: Yes now the chat. Yeah, I didn't call them the

370
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 1: Cleveland Guidos or something like that.

371
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:43,479
Speaker 2: No, you just call them that they actually changed, because.

372
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 1: They actually changed. And I made a mistake. I'm tired.

373
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 1: It's Friday again.

374
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 2: This is what you're to make mistakes here, Joe. There's

375
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 2: no mistakes.

376
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 1: But I called myself as I made it, and I

377
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 1: could tell it was like one of those bubbles, those

378
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 1: cartoon bubbles. I could see it in my mouth. I said.

379
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 1: Sometimes I still say San Diego Chargers every now and again.

380
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 1: These are just things that are ingrained in you after

381
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 1: forty years. You know, franmil Reyes got signed to a

382
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:09,199
Speaker 1: minor the contract.

383
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 2: Do you care who did he used to be with

384
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 2: he used to be with it? What was that team? Joe? No,

385
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 2: what was that other team that he.

386
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 1: Was winning out? The Padres? Which, by the way, how

387
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:20,200
Speaker 1: much long are we going to call him the Padres?

388
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:22,160
Speaker 2: Oh? Is that offensive?

389
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm just saying, like, how much long

390
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 1: did we call him the Padres?

391
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 2: Joey Joey digging? Joey's digging. No, I have no interest

392
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 2: in him. Frama Rays with the Nationals or anybody. Unfortunately.

393
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:36,640
Speaker 2: I love friand of Race. He's like such a nice

394
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 2: guy and stuff too, But uh, the game is not there,

395
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 2: so no, we don't. We don't have any fantasy interests here.

396
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 1: I love the Washington Commanders. Somebody give me a Washington

397
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 1: Commander's hat and I'll put it on it right now,

398
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,200
Speaker 1: all right, h three up and three down from yesterday.

399
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: Wilson Contreras obviously the two three run home run. It's amazing.

400
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 1: So Wilson Catrera has had a you know, a little

401
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 1: bit of a stern talking to you. Maybe Marmall's a genius.

402
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: Maybe he's exactly the old school, tough guy manager that

403
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 1: this team needed. I don't know, but we could go.

404
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 1: Everybody wanted to fire this guy, And now all of

405
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 1: a sudden, this team has really come to life in

406
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 1: the last couple days. Aaron Judge two for four with

407
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 1: another home run. Holy crap. Four home runs this week

408
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 1: against the Blue Jays. Unbelievable. Should just be Aaron Judge

409
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,639
Speaker 1: every day for home run calls. Boba Shitt three to

410
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,359
Speaker 1: four with a solo homer. In that same game, Oleo

411
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 1: Urius lit up for six runs, over three innings. I

412
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 1: can't get past this going into the season. Welsh. I

413
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 1: know we had this conversation a lot with Urius where

414
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,639
Speaker 1: he was being valued as a fantasy Asian. I just

415
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 1: did not believe he was. I don't think fantasy Asians

416
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: go out there and have as many of these kind

417
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 1: of starts as Yurius does on occasion. He is more

418
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:43,399
Speaker 1: Jose Burrios than he is Clayton Kershaw. And I know

419
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 1: that that upsets a lot of people if I say that,

420
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 1: But you know what, I think it's true. I think

421
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 1: it's true. And until he proves otherwise, you can't put

422
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 1: him in that same Zach Gallan, Spencer Streyder, those guys

423
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 1: are aces in fantasy. Urius is not that guy, and

424
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,200
Speaker 1: going in if you look back at the ADP, that's

425
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,120
Speaker 1: exactly where he was ranked. And I think it was wrong,

426
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 1: and I still believe it's wrong, and I think it's

427
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:03,680
Speaker 1: playing out that way.

428
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, drafted. The idea of drafting him before, like Zach

429
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 2: Gallen is so silly right now, and I think Zach

430
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,199
Speaker 2: Allen has jumped into a completely different range. You know,

431
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:14,000
Speaker 2: there were some early positive signs with areas the strikeout,

432
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,439
Speaker 2: numbers were going up, but they seem to have. His

433
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 2: chase rate is in the essentially top twenty five percent

434
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,159
Speaker 2: of the league, but everything has kind of stabilized down.

435
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,159
Speaker 2: Biggest hard hit percentage of his career he's given up.

436
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 2: His K percentage has now dropped to a three year low.

437
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,639
Speaker 2: Is less effective. He's getting hit on the fastball a

438
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 2: whole lot more. As a two to eighty three batting

439
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 2: average last year he gave up a one.

440
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 1: Confidence on the mound Welsh to the demeanor's not good,

441
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 1: and I always, you know, this is something that all

442
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:44,159
Speaker 1: the you know, fun Twitter pitching gurus and stuff like that,

443
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 1: they're never going to talk about. Right, They're gonna give

444
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: you the X plug, they're gonna give you all these

445
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 1: other things, but they're never gonna talk about demeanor. Confidence,

446
00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:53,679
Speaker 1: commanding the space and the mound. This is something that

447
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,159
Speaker 1: the great pitchers do. It's something that even the great pitchers,

448
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,400
Speaker 1: when they're not great anymore, still do, Like Max Schuers

449
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:00,960
Speaker 1: is not what Max chers there was, but I'm sure

450
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 1: most guys are pretty you know, afraid to face matchers

451
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,359
Speaker 1: or most days still like there's still an intimidation factor's

452
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,639
Speaker 1: a control factor with that guy, and I think the

453
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 1: best pictures have that, and Urius does not have that

454
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 1: demeanor at all. You could tell he's shaken there. And

455
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 1: we got to talk about this too before he gets

456
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: to the rest of the downs, because if we don't,

457
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 1: Mike Maher's gonna explode. He's tweeting about it. He's talking

458
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 1: about it. Gunnar Henderson's heating up Gunner Henderson.

459
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 2: I think it was like literally the eleventh hour, you

460
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,679
Speaker 2: know that, like it was the last second. He didn't

461
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 2: have much more time, in my eyes, to get going

462
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 2: than he did and he and I think over last

463
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:36,919
Speaker 2: week he said over three hundred he's been good. This

464
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 2: is why they were tenuous about, like, don't want to

465
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,399
Speaker 2: drop him if you could go in other directions. I

466
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,159
Speaker 2: think there were some scenarios where we kind of had to,

467
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,680
Speaker 2: but I'm telling you this dude probably did it within

468
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 2: one week. More of his struggles, I think the team

469
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,679
Speaker 2: would have made the really, really tough decision. Jordan Westburg

470
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 2: just said his twelfth homer of the day. The other day,

471
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 2: he's knocking at the door. Joey Ortiz has been getting opportunities,

472
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 2: so I think he's saving himself a gig right now.

473
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, continuing on with the downs, Adam Waynwright five runs,

474
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 1: but at least he had the Burger Phone. Only two

475
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 1: of them were earned, so not everything was his fault,

476
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 1: but still a W against the Dodgers in a big

477
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 1: one too. That game was fun. Last night, Hora Mateo

478
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 1: returned to action, but it didn't matter. He went over

479
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 1: four all the Hori Mateo stuff right of replacements, he

480
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:21,639
Speaker 1: is hitting, get this right over the last fifty one

481
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:27,359
Speaker 1: played appearances one oh six one one twenty eight slash

482
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 1: so bad. I mean, I don't know if I ever

483
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:35,640
Speaker 1: remember a player being that hot in April and this

484
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: cold in May, Like this is this is like frozen

485
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: tundra cold. This is unbelievable. I mean, do you just

486
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 1: drop him or do you? Benjamin at this point, like

487
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 1: I don't have many drop you know what.

488
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 2: Personally, I know he had a lot of stolen bases

489
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 2: and whatnot, but like that was a big draw. Yeah,

490
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,200
Speaker 2: I'm not drawn to that anymore. I don't see how

491
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 2: it's amazing that the Orioles.

492
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:56,400
Speaker 1: I'm not drawn to that anymore.

493
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 2: I don't care for that sort of man means nothing.

494
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 1: I'm over that stage of my life. I'm moving on.

495
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 2: It's pretty incredible that they dealt with these struggles from

496
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 2: multiple guys when they have got a minor league system

497
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 2: that is chock full of guys that are not just

498
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 2: like kind of know they're ready. Westberg and Kowser could

499
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,760
Speaker 2: come up and play today today. They could if they wanted. So,

500
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 2: I just don't see why they're gonna hold on for

501
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 2: too much longer. I think it's I think he's gonna

502
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,360
Speaker 2: get designated at some point. You don't even need him

503
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 2: as a super util guy because Joey Ortiz can play

504
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 2: that if they want so. I think it gets designated

505
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 2: soon and they bring up Jordan Westburg and that's the

506
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 2: right thing to do.

507
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 1: I just I can't I'd love to go back and

508
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,399
Speaker 1: see some of the trades for Horey Matteo, like what

509
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 1: people got in return for him on I don't know,

510
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,880
Speaker 1: April twentieth, like that would have just been amazing.

511
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:43,920
Speaker 2: But what is his season number right now? Is he

512
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 2: down to?

513
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:48,479

Speaker 1: today with Well, let's.

525
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 2: Celebrate you that played it, that you have the money

526
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 2: because I even gave you a secondary option because I

527
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 2: put Trout in there and that hit so we were

528
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,840
Speaker 2: able to get through it. It's actually two fifty two,

529
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 2: not to sixty two. It's actually a pretty good line.

530
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 2: I'm being a little dismissive of it. I think I

531
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 2: forgot how good of a line because he's been so bad.

532
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 2: His XBA is pretty decent, all right. Maybe I maybe

533
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:35,359
Speaker 2: I spoke out a turn. Maybe I was being a

534
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 2: silly goose because those type of numbers they might give

535
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,879
Speaker 2: him a much bigger window, but it doesn't change that.

536
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 2: I don't think he's going to hold on to a

537
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 2: starting gig.

538
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,720
Speaker 1: I even knew at al wort A Mundy.

539
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:47,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's a good way to put it.

540
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 2: I think there's a similar swing set in there too,

541
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,399
Speaker 2: so way way better stats than I even I remembered going.

542
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 2: But I, like I said, I don't think it's going

543
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:56,640
Speaker 2: to be able to uh. I think he'll be able

544
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 2: to hold off Westburn. But like I said yesterday, the

545
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 2: hater Sandwich cas so both hates hates Cashed And then

546
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 2: I said trout, and I said, ah, you know what,

547
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,880
Speaker 2: we can place it with Uri Bing Bang. So let's

548
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 2: see if we can make it two in a row.

549
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 2: I will attempt to no promises.

550
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 1: Here.

551
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,640
Speaker 2: Here are my three plays for today. Twenty would cast

552
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,199
Speaker 2: you one hundred. If you want to play, you can

553
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 2: add other fun pieces. I have got no run first

554
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,400
Speaker 2: inning for Joe Ryan and Reed Debtmers, Zach Gallen strikeout

555
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,959
Speaker 2: six and a half over and Fernando Tatist Junior, who

556
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,760
Speaker 2: by the way, on the shirt two and a half

557
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:31,879
Speaker 2: two total bases, one and a half over total bases

558
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:35,119
Speaker 2: for Fernando Tatis Junior. Those are my prize picks.

559
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 1: There's a poll up right now that the mayor bear

560
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 1: who decided to come to work today for us actually

561
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: put up and who deserves to be canceled more. Welsh

562
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 1: still leading the pack here by a wide margin fifty

563
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 1: seven percent.

564
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 2: So you know what, let's add Mayer to that again.

565
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,879
Speaker 1: I caught myself literally as I said it. It was

566
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 1: an honest mistake, and it was true. I didn't keep

567
00:24:56,280 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 1: calling them a different team name that they weren't a

568
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: completely different identity of another team that they might look

569
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 1: similar also play in the American League Central. If I

570
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 1: kept calling them the Twins over and over again and

571
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 1: they weren't the Twins maybe.

572
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 2: A little different, I think you guys don't deserve me.

573
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 2: I just held that kind a couple of things here too.

574
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,440
Speaker 1: Oh I don't deserve you, all right, all right, let's

575
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 1: get to my prize pix here. James Packson five and

576
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 1: a half interest strikeouts. I am going to go the

577
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:30,200
Speaker 1: over on this, and I am this is I've struggled

578
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 1: with this all day, but I'm gonna go with the

579
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 1: over on it. Bryce Harper seven and a half hitter

580
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,200
Speaker 1: Fantasy score over Marcus Simeon, looking for him to have

581
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:39,880
Speaker 1: a big day in Colorado too. I think there's gonna

582
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 1: be a lot of runs there. Eight and a half.

583
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:43,919
Speaker 1: Speaking of runs, also, I want to look at that

584
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,960
Speaker 1: Oakland Houston game today, you got some subpar pitching on

585
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,439
Speaker 1: that mound. Nine and a half is the run total.

586
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,720
Speaker 1: I know it's a big number. I'm going over in

587
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:56,200
Speaker 1: the minus one oh four Seattle for the upset, the

588
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 1: Battle of the Bryces, Bryce Miller against Bryce Elder. How

589
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:01,880
Speaker 1: often Major League Baseball have two guys named Bryce gone

590
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 1: against each other?

591
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's yeah, that's a very by the way,

592
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,160
Speaker 2: like two thousand plus name where everyone's.

593
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,400
Speaker 1: Like Aiden Bryce. I think Jackson and Bryce are gonna

594
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 1: come over. We're gonna hang out, We're gonna play Fortnite.

595
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,879
Speaker 1: It's gonna be super cool. And then of course the

596
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 1: Boston Red Sox plus one thirty on the money line.

597
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 1: That's on DK. But speaking of Bryce Miller, four and

598
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 1: a half is the number, minus one twenty five. I'm

599
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,320
Speaker 1: gonna go over on that. Zach Gallon six and a

600
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,959
Speaker 1: half k's it's gonna be slightly over, I'm but I'm

601
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 1: gonna go over again. That's at minus one fourteen. But

602
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,200
Speaker 1: I feel really strongly, the most strongly I should say,

603
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 1: what a strong guest about Houston Oakland and the over

604
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 1: in that nine and a half. I think you know

605
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 1: Oakland's out the greatest offensive team. We know this. But

606
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 1: even if they can patch together three or four runs

607
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,680
Speaker 1: here in this game, I think Houston's gonna well take

608
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 1: care of the rest todaygainst Walda Chuck. So that's that's

609
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 1: where I'm sitting. Where are you sitting when it comes

610
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:48,680
Speaker 1: to the bets today?

611
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:50,880
Speaker 2: Well, all right, I've actually got two bets. I'm going

612
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,719
Speaker 2: with the Diamondbacks on we have a third bet that's

613
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 2: actually a part of our big parlay every single day,

614
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,919
Speaker 2: Joe myself, Mike Mayer, and Kelly Kirby put together a

615
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 2: four leg parley. You can play that one of us

616
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,400
Speaker 2: will inherently lose. I think I might have the most

617
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,360
Speaker 2: losses on it. Yet I'm not one hundred percent sure

618
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 2: because I can't do some of the stuff I like

619
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 2: to do sometimes. But today, on that one, I had

620
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 2: the Diamondbacks money line, but my two favorite bets inside

621
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,919
Speaker 2: of it. I've got the Diamondbacks first five to be

622
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,120
Speaker 2: up by a run. It's a little juice at one

623
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 2: thirty five, but it's just enough where you could still

624
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 2: play it. So they just have to be up by

625
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 2: one run after five innings. Reminder, Zach Gallon is pitching

626
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,639
Speaker 2: on that they're going up against Johanna Alviedo. I like

627
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 2: the Diamondbacks team total runs two and a half over

628
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 2: that's plus one twenty five, and they're averaging over four

629
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 2: runs per game over their last I think three games,

630
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 2: and Oviedo has gone over this two of his last three,

631
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 2: so I love that. That's actually my favorite, the team

632
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:51,919
Speaker 2: total runs. I'm also going back to Tampa Bay. They

633
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:54,120
Speaker 2: screwed me yesterday, but I'm going with the team total

634
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 2: runs two and a half. I'm doing that bad boy again.

635
00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:00,760
Speaker 2: It's minus one ten. Those are my bets, so but

636
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 2: you can always go check out the Betting Pros site

637
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 2: and the Leading Off group if you want to check

638
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 2: out any bets. I can't put my team total runs

639
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 2: in there, but I can put some of my others,

640
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,359
Speaker 2: so I might add some more. So go and follow that,

641
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:14,120
Speaker 2: follow me, follow us, and have a glorious time.

Speaker 1: so good times there for the All Star a winner,

655
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 1: So that's gonna be a fun thing. They're going on

656
00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:58,760
Speaker 1: now Welsh when we're looking at the DFS slate for

657
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: the day again, the Battle the Bryces. I'm gonna take

658
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,280
Speaker 1: Bryce Miller. He's cheaper, He's nine point nine, not much

659
00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 1: different than Elder. If you want to make a lineup

660
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 1: and then just make two lineups, one with Elder, one

661
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 1: with Miller, there's nothing wrong with that. Chances are one

662
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 1: of those lineups is going to be better than the other.

663
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,239
Speaker 1: I think that's a good philosophy today. If you want

664
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 1: to avoid that game altogether, that's also cool. If you are,

665
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 1: then you go to the top of the board with

666
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 1: Joe Ryan, where Zach Gallen or you go bound to

667
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 1: the bottom end with James Paxon eight point three, the Mets,

668
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 1: the Rangers, especially the Houston Astros, and the Dodgers. Those

669
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 1: are the offenses I want to get into today. Mark

670
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 1: Fiento's if he's in the lineup. The two point eight

671
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 1: Miguel Vargus, who's been really good. I wrote him up

672
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 1: on Fantasybros dot Com in our whole you know by

673
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 1: low Sell high stuff. Miguel Vargus has been really good

674
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 1: these last couple of weeks. He's really starting to hit

675
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 1: two point seven k Louis our Ees two point eight Welsh.

676
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 1: When it comes to home run calls today, I know

677
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 1: you and I both hit home runs. You're probably back

678
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 1: on the board, but Ethan was unavailable today a home

679
00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 1: run board. He's traveling. I wanted to see that. I

680
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 1: know you wanted to see. Instead, how about I show

681
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 1: you this picture of Wanso. Oh yuck, oh, how about that?

682
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 2: It's so disgusting.

683
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 1: Again, that is the reaction of Juan Soto to Juan

684
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 1: Soto seeing Wan Soto statue.

685
00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 2: It's like the guy in the Goonies, remember the what

686
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 2: was the guy's name who was trapped.

687
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 1: Well, you're doing it again. That would be Sloth slot again.

688
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 2: Exactly what am I doing? I didn't do anything. I'm

689
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,600
Speaker 2: not saying names. I'm making very careful about that. Your

690
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 2: knock up. But can we get Bobblehead, Sodo and Sloth

691
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 2: at some point back to back, because I mean that

692
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 2: is that is.

693
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: I love the Goodies. That's one of my favorite all

694
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 1: time movies. They're actually showing it in the movie theater,

695
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 1: the movie theater by my house. Every week they show

696
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 1: old movies, and they're doing the Harry Potter series on

697
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 1: Saturdays or doing all these amazing fun stuff. And in

698
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 1: September they're showing Goonies and I've never seen Goonies on

699
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:52,640
Speaker 1: the big screen, so very excited about that.

700
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:54,760
Speaker 2: You know what, this might be hated. I rewatched it

701
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 2: with my kid. I don't no, no, I'm sorry, like no,

702
00:30:58,720 --> 00:30:59,480
Speaker 2: I watched it when I.

703
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 1: Was a girl show. Now we're canceled. Now I'm canceling you.

704
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:05,760
Speaker 1: I can't. It's not fine.

705
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:06,600
Speaker 2: It's fine.

706
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 1: No, I don't know, it's not just chat. Can you

707
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:12,480
Speaker 1: back me up here? The Goonies is great, please, for

708
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 1: the love of God, I mean.

709
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:17,680
Speaker 2: It's fine, Like it's the storytelling is pretty rare.

710
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: Whatever it's it's it's canceled.

711
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 2: You guys can watch that. I'll watch like, you know,

712
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 2: shows with like really deep and rich like storylines and

713
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 2: stuff like that.

714
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 1: Now lines, these are children fighting for their home, fighting

715
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,479
Speaker 1: for their home. Welsh about to all move. They're all

716
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 1: going to move to different places. They're losing their home,

717
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 1: they're losing their community, all for big business industrialization of

718
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:43,400
Speaker 1: this wonderful small town America. You want to talk about

719
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 1: the struggle for the soul of small town America? That's

720
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 1: what about that? And pirates?

721
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 2: What's the kid with the Shuffle's.

722
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:57,040
Speaker 1: That guy all? Now? It's it's it's what was his name?

723
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:01,040
Speaker 1: How mean? It's chunk everybody? But it's really.

724
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 2: Massively annoying character on the rewatch I remember you liked

725
00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 2: him when you were a kid. Rewatch it. You hate

726
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 2: You want everything bad to happen. You don't like anything

727
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 2: about the kid. You don't want him to have the body.

728
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:14,080
Speaker 2: It's just not it's not great. It's I don't know,

729
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 2: maybe I need to like rewatch it. But I remember

730
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 2: watching with a kid, and actually it's it's.

731
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 1: A Spielberg production. By the way, I know people say

732
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 1: it's a Spielberg movie, but Richard Donner directed it. Richard

733
00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 1: Donner again one of the great directors period. I want

734
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 1: to say, Richard Donner did Leath a Weapon, Richard Donnod

735
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:30,760
Speaker 1: did some of the best movies you'll ever see in

736
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:35,000
Speaker 1: the eighties and early nineties. So I mean, guys, really.

737
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 2: I don't know, it's fine. It's it's that like late

738
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 2: eighties early nineties absurdity of stories where it's like these

739
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,920
Speaker 2: kids a whole and then hey, look there's pirates, and

740
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:47,120
Speaker 2: it's just you're just like all right, like it's it's fine.

741
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 2: It's I think we had more imagination back when we

742
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 2: were kids. Now there's so much in television and stuff

743
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:52,960
Speaker 2: like that.

744
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:54,920
Speaker 1: That's why I kind of love it because it's simple

745
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:58,240
Speaker 1: and it all feels like, hey, you know, crazy things happened.

746
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 1: It's a little bit more realistic. There's no cgi, there's

747
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 1: no other things. And what's fun too thanos. You know

748
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 1: in that movie, you get obviously Josh Brolin playing oh yeah,

749
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:14,000
Speaker 1: he was the brother brother, and you get Sean Aston

750
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 1: who was in Lord of the Rings. So you get

751
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:19,720
Speaker 1: two guys as kids who were in two of the

752
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:21,800
Speaker 1: biggest movie franchises in the history.

753
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 2: It's just like bad parents, you know, like all they

754
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 2: are parents, but how funny the worst parents on the planet.

755
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, but then the Corey Felpen speaking Spanish to that

756
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 1: poor Spanish woman is trying to help them back up

757
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:33,880
Speaker 1: and telling.

758
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 2: Me about what actually enjoyed. Corey Felps Again, I don't

759
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 2: hate it, It's just I'm not like, I'm not gonna

760
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,440
Speaker 2: idolize it and sit here and be like, oh my god,

761
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,479
Speaker 2: Goonies is so great. Everybody, let's go back and rewatch.

762
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 1: You hate Star Wars too, Cody Wilson.

763
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 2: Star Wars a great. Star Wars is a great storyline. Yeah,

764
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:52,160
Speaker 2: it's awesome. I mean I love Puppet, the Puppet, the

765
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:58,640

00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:32,240
Speaker 2: the leaderboard.

781
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:35,360
Speaker 1: Hot Takewash. I think you love Goonies. You're just afraid

782
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 1: to say that you love Loonies because your favorite character

783
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:40,879
Speaker 1: is Data, and you think that that's going to lead

784
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 1: people down a bad road for you because that character

785
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:48,400
Speaker 1: obviously is a little, you know, stereotypical. I just do

786
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,760
Speaker 1: the show. That's the truth. I'm gonna go with Bryce

791
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:05,360
Speaker 1: There's some corny, crazy stuff in those when you're just

792
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,440
Speaker 1: watching bits and pieces where you're like, yeah, this is

793
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,879
