00:00:12.839 --> 00:00:16.800
Welcome back to Join the Ranks,
a podcast of the Dynasty Guru network where

2
00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:20.800
we're helping Dynasty managers win your leagues, one player at a time. For

3
00:00:20.879 --> 00:00:25.519
more great content, be sure to
listen to the Dynasty's Child podcast in our

4
00:00:25.519 --> 00:00:29.960
newest TDG podcast, The Prospect Showdown, hosted by Brian and Daniel Laboude.

5
00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:33.840
You can also find all our rankings
and articles on the Donasty Guru website.

6
00:00:34.240 --> 00:00:38.159
We also have a lively discord channel
with news updates, early releases of articles,

7
00:00:38.200 --> 00:00:41.880
and it's a great place to post
questions about trade offers. Each episode

8
00:00:41.880 --> 00:00:44.719
of this podcast, Chris and I'll
discuss one or more of the trades posted

9
00:00:44.799 --> 00:00:48.320
on the site and share our analysis. If you want to join us there,

10
00:00:48.320 --> 00:00:52.359
it's a small donation and information that
is on the TDG website. I'm

11
00:00:52.439 --> 00:00:55.600
Drew Klein, senior writer at The
Dynasty Guru, and with me is my

12
00:00:55.640 --> 00:00:59.159
co host TDG Senior writer Chris Knock. Chris, how are you doing tonight?

13
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:03.159
Know? I am doing great,
and I'm still not prepared for a

14
00:01:03.200 --> 00:01:07.159
snappy answer for that question, even
though I knew it was coming. Well,

15
00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:08.319
we're almost halfway the season. We'll
get on one of these days,

16
00:01:08.439 --> 00:01:14.959
one of these days. I'm still
a little bit of surprised we did not

17
00:01:15.079 --> 00:01:19.480
have a correct answer and our randomly
inserted obscure song title. You guys may

18
00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:21.599
be tired of it, but I'm
not. I'm going to keep it up.

19
00:01:22.439 --> 00:01:26.599
Last week's song was learning to Fly
by Tom Petty. Plenty of time

20
00:01:26.640 --> 00:01:32.719
to join the ride contest and win
a twenty twenty five TDG discord subscription of

21
00:01:32.760 --> 00:01:36.120
the twenty dollars value. How many
of those have we Oh, so I'm

22
00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:38.000
going to cut you now, go
ahead, go ahead? How many?

23
00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:41.719
How many of those? How many
people have we had win that so far?

24
00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:45.000
Well, we had one person win
for having the first one right,

25
00:01:45.400 --> 00:01:49.280
and we've got three people who have
who have entered in the season long contest

26
00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:52.040
between you and me. Maybe all
three of them will get a prize at

27
00:01:52.079 --> 00:01:55.920
the end. We'll see how it
goes. But oh winner, everyone's a

28
00:01:55.920 --> 00:02:01.400
winner who listens to JT or joined
the ranks. Tell Taylor, So,

29
00:02:01.879 --> 00:02:05.280
Chris, you and I have been
using the n season episodes to look at

30
00:02:05.280 --> 00:02:08.599
the rankings by positions. We've been
doing two positions for each episode, but

31
00:02:08.639 --> 00:02:13.360
tonight we're just gonna look at the
starting pitchers. Each week we'll talk about

32
00:02:13.360 --> 00:02:16.319
players moving up and down the ranks, and keeping with our focus on prospects,

33
00:02:16.759 --> 00:02:21.479
take a hard look at who's about
to join the ranks. Sprinkled in

34
00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:23.719
the schedule, we'll be dropping in
a special episode about once a month,

35
00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:29.639
updating the jt R thirty, which
is our overlook prospects from each organization,

36
00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:32.479
and the June update will drop about
a week from now, and we'd love

37
00:02:32.520 --> 00:02:37.520
to hear what you think about the
new GTR thirty theme song accompanying those updates.

38
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:42.039
Chris, couple things. First of
all, happy twentieth episode that you

39
00:02:42.039 --> 00:02:45.960
and I have done together. Oh
man, oh, it's almost old enough

40
00:02:45.960 --> 00:02:53.639
to drink, all right? And
then once again, last time we were

41
00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:57.120
together we mentioned an unperforming player and
he went on a hot streak. This

42
00:02:57.159 --> 00:03:02.159
time it was Jiner Dias and in
fact you and Tyler sodas from his and

43
00:03:02.199 --> 00:03:06.599
then also and then our older ones, though those they kind of cooled off.

44
00:03:06.840 --> 00:03:08.840
Misteries they did. Yeh'd be long
live. But my question for you,

45
00:03:08.879 --> 00:03:12.319
then, are you going to try
to use our mojo on players that

46
00:03:12.360 --> 00:03:15.680
you have rostered and bring them up
tonight hoping they'll get hot? I am

47
00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:22.479
crossing all my fingers and toes.
Let's talk about pictures, and it's fun,

48
00:03:22.520 --> 00:03:25.840
it's frustrating. It's everybody wants good
pitching. It's hard to get it

49
00:03:25.840 --> 00:03:30.240
in the trade, but you don't
want to spend too much capital on a

50
00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:31.599
prospect if you're not sure they're going
to make it. Like you and I

51
00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:38.759
were talking before we started recording,
uh Dinashno, rankings mid season are tricky

52
00:03:38.919 --> 00:03:43.879
because at the very top, you're
expecting players who are ranked high in dynasty

53
00:03:43.919 --> 00:03:46.199
to also be performing well this year. But the more you get down you're

54
00:03:46.240 --> 00:03:50.680
kind of look in some future thinking
as well. So we kind of got

55
00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:53.120
to balance that. But I think
anytime you're in season, you spend a

56
00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:55.759
lot of time talking about the here
and now, and you know flags fly

57
00:03:55.879 --> 00:03:59.520
forever. So even though you want
to build a dynasty, you want to

58
00:03:59.639 --> 00:04:01.439
win you flags this year as well. What are your thoughts in that when

59
00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:09.000
you're thinking about pitching it in the
dynasty of rankings and all that mess,

60
00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:14.639
Well, yeah, rankings, I
mean we can rank them, you know

61
00:04:14.800 --> 00:04:18.680
a lot of things. I think
they're more volatile than our position players,

62
00:04:18.680 --> 00:04:23.879
and I don't think that's a secret
by any means. But I will say,

63
00:04:24.519 --> 00:04:28.120
and I meant to when we were
kind of talking a little bit about

64
00:04:28.120 --> 00:04:34.000
our outline for the day one thing
with pitchers and dynasty and team building,

65
00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:40.519
and I think we'll probably get into
some of the reasons why here in the

66
00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:47.480
short order. But when I am
not truly chasing that championship, and I'm

67
00:04:47.480 --> 00:04:53.560
saying, by this time in the
season, if I'm questioning my ability to

68
00:04:53.639 --> 00:04:59.480
win, I'm pretty quick to move
off some arms more so than bats.

69
00:05:00.040 --> 00:05:08.839
And I'm definitely not targeting arms unless
they're the injured variety that can come at

70
00:05:09.040 --> 00:05:13.800
a discount of sorts or underperforming I
should say, still coming at a discount

71
00:05:13.800 --> 00:05:15.879
if I if I believe in them, I kind of throw I don't want

72
00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:21.199
to say I throw rankings to the
window in season, but I just don't

73
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:28.279
hold arms on dynasty as much as
I hold bats. I find you talked

74
00:05:28.319 --> 00:05:33.360
about trade value that can help you
both ways. So I'm very quick too

75
00:05:33.560 --> 00:05:41.360
if I'm not competing to look to
move while performing arms in season, even

76
00:05:41.399 --> 00:05:46.560
if long term they might be having
some value. I know that was kind

77
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:51.879
of how do you set the value
for them? It is the market or

78
00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:55.319
do you draw a line and say
I need to get this much or I'm

79
00:05:55.360 --> 00:06:00.720
not going to make the move.
It's it's always i've I've I feel it

80
00:06:00.720 --> 00:06:03.879
out. It's I mean, ranks
will come into play, whether it's dynasty,

81
00:06:03.920 --> 00:06:10.839
but I actually look at him more
in terms of redraft performance. But

82
00:06:10.920 --> 00:06:15.279
I don't rely heavily on just that, right, I mean, there's I

83
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:20.399
think Rangers. Suarez is a good
example right now. He is in season

84
00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:26.120
on a heck of a bender.
He's pitching again tonight. Tonight's Friday for

85
00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:31.800
those who are going to be listening
down the road, But I think he

86
00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:35.720
has more. I don't know if
people are fully buying in as this being

87
00:06:35.800 --> 00:06:39.680
him the real hymn. So while
he is performing very well, he might

88
00:06:39.720 --> 00:06:45.360
not fetch a high redraft type price, whereas I think his dynasty value might

89
00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:50.480
be higher than his redraft I don't
know if that's spicy or not. But

90
00:06:51.120 --> 00:06:56.680
he's a twenty eight relatively low mileage
arm. Twenty eight year old, relatively

91
00:06:56.720 --> 00:07:00.160
low mileage arm. So whether it's
a plateau, I don't think he'll be

92
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:04.399
declining other than the injury bug.
So just using him as a quick example,

93
00:07:04.439 --> 00:07:06.759
sorry, I'm not going to just
dive into his value right off the

94
00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:12.759
bat. But so I look at
redraft and you know, I'm it all

95
00:07:12.959 --> 00:07:16.519
just it depends. I don't look
for specific returns. If it's an ACE,

96
00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:23.000
then I'm moving. Those might not
be ones that I'm actually moving necessarily,

97
00:07:23.399 --> 00:07:28.639
but some of those hot, well
performing arms I might be more liable

98
00:07:28.839 --> 00:07:34.759
or more likely part of me to
move when I'm not competing for a crown.

99
00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:39.439
Yeah, And the reason I ask
a little selfishly, but I don't

100
00:07:39.439 --> 00:07:43.519
think I'm alone in this is that
I've got a couple of rosters of teams

101
00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:46.480
that are competitive, and my strength
is in the pitching, and so if

102
00:07:46.519 --> 00:07:49.079
I'm going to get over the top, I've got to move some pieces and

103
00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:56.120
beef up a couple of the hitting
positions. But sometimes it's like, you

104
00:07:56.199 --> 00:08:01.199
know, I'm so weak at middle
infield, and what kind of shortstop or

105
00:08:01.199 --> 00:08:05.519
second basement am I going to get
for a top twenty pitcher. I just

106
00:08:05.560 --> 00:08:07.839
feel like it just looks like a
bad trade, you know, even though

107
00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:13.439
it's going to help my team.
And if these are head to head leagues,

108
00:08:13.439 --> 00:08:16.040
and I think in ahead to he
league's almost easier to trade a picture

109
00:08:16.079 --> 00:08:18.879
there because you know you're losing one
start a week, but you're filling somebody

110
00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:24.160
in, and I think that the
hit is marginal compared to long term roto

111
00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:28.439
scoring for a season, so so
the format matters, but I'm working on

112
00:08:28.480 --> 00:08:31.039
it. I go to a group
we talk about you know, the you

113
00:08:31.039 --> 00:08:35.000
know, I'm afraid of trading anonymous, but you know, it's kind of

114
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:39.480
helpful what you said there, And
uh, I think that we're out there

115
00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:41.679
like people are just afraid, and
especially if it's somebody you had as a

116
00:08:41.679 --> 00:08:48.519
prospect and well, yeah a long
time too, and with I mean it's

117
00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:54.840
tough too, because what you think
might be a deep stable of arms could

118
00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:58.360
change in the blink of an eye. Uh, you know, the last

119
00:08:58.440 --> 00:09:03.240
couple of years have definitely shown that. You know, one of my approaches

120
00:09:03.399 --> 00:09:07.679
usually is throw all of my names
on the trade block, saying I will

121
00:09:07.720 --> 00:09:11.840
be only moving one of these,
maybe more, but one at a time

122
00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:16.320
at best, and wait to see
what comes in and see what you think

123
00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:24.120
is the best value on the return
and go from there. It's sounding I'm

124
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:28.039
giving all this advice that obviously shows
that I'm often selling and not buying.

125
00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:33.039
But sometimes, but sometimes you're in
a position like I am. I want

126
00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:37.039
to sell because I need to get
over the top. Yeah, I've got

127
00:09:37.360 --> 00:09:41.039
a playoff team, but I want
to make sure I win. But the

128
00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:43.799
packages that I get off a back
are packages a rebuilding team would want.

129
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:46.960
Like, hey, here's three prospects, two draft choices. I thought,

130
00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:50.080
that's not can help me win this
year. I want to move one of

131
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:54.360
these pictures for pieces can help me
win this year. And then, you

132
00:09:54.360 --> 00:09:56.360
know, people don't want to move
off their starting line up. They want

133
00:09:56.360 --> 00:10:01.960
to move off their bench, their
or their prospect list. So sometimes those

134
00:10:01.399 --> 00:10:05.320
trades it's a little harder to get. Nobody wants to get ripped off,

135
00:10:05.360 --> 00:10:11.679
you know. But yeah, so
our top ten from the preseason, I

136
00:10:11.799 --> 00:10:15.360
read them to you. Now,
our top two are injured, Herrerah,

137
00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:22.879
Spencer, Strider, Garrett Cole,
Corbyn Burns, Zach Gallen, Luis Castillo,

138
00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:28.480
Pablo Lopez, Uri Perez, George
Kirby, Kevin Gosman, and Zach

139
00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:31.799
Wheeler. Now, if you recall
our top ten from eighteen months ago,

140
00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:37.480
you know, preseason for twenty twenty
three, only three of these names were

141
00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:39.639
on last year's top ten. I
think we're going to do better. A

142
00:10:39.639 --> 00:10:46.080
better ratio of how many of these
guys are next year's top ten right now.

143
00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:48.480
But I'm also gonna throw it in
a little while about ten guys who

144
00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:52.960
are knocking on the door too,
So I'm not going to stick to that,

145
00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:58.000
but only quote unquote three who are
injured right now, Strider, Cole,

146
00:10:58.039 --> 00:11:03.000
and Perez, right, and Cole's
about to come back soon. In

147
00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:07.799
terms of our rankings, Strider and
Cole coming back off injury, do you

148
00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:11.639
still anticipates are going to be within
the top three, within the top five

149
00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:20.279
five rank for sure? Well,
well, Strider at least Cole. Not

150
00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:28.320
that I'm out by any means,
but I think the fact that he will

151
00:11:28.360 --> 00:11:35.080
be pitching the second half of the
season puts in terms of rankings more at

152
00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:41.200
risk. If he was out the
entire year, I think he would definitely

153
00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:45.919
still be in the top five,
especially because of the slew of injuries or

154
00:11:46.360 --> 00:11:54.320
lack of performance immediately behind him behind
that list. But yeah, I would.

155
00:11:54.159 --> 00:12:01.519
If Cole performs anywhere reasonably close to
what he has historically, I would

156
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:05.039
be surprised if either of them are
out of the top five. I don't

157
00:12:05.080 --> 00:12:11.639
know. I think I'm looking at
Corbyn. Burns is having a good year.

158
00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:15.320
His strikeouts are going down though,
so I'm not quite sure him and

159
00:12:15.399 --> 00:12:20.519
just some names on this list because
Steve's having a very good year, George

160
00:12:20.600 --> 00:12:24.360
Kirby's putting up great numbers, and
Zach Wheeler's having a very good year,

161
00:12:26.039 --> 00:12:31.039
and then Kevin Gosman start to start
solid year. I mean he belongs to

162
00:12:31.039 --> 00:12:33.440
he He's not having a poor year. Yeah, Albo Lopez I'm worried about

163
00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:37.840
in terms of this year's performance.
And then it's just you know, we're

164
00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:41.919
gonna have to have some conversations about
whether that's this year's a blip or the

165
00:12:41.919 --> 00:12:46.120
beginning of a trend with him.
But then the top two names knocking the

166
00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:50.919
door are Trek Scougbel and Paul skeins
Well. I think Schooble and Skins will

167
00:12:50.960 --> 00:13:00.600
definitely be in that top five all
things continuing as is. That is disclaimer

168
00:13:00.639 --> 00:13:09.240
across the board. But the upside
that Strider presents is I think still better

169
00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:15.759
than upside. You know, a
healthy Strider next year, full season is

170
00:13:16.919 --> 00:13:24.360
better than are on the level of
schemes right now. And Cole presents the

171
00:13:24.399 --> 00:13:28.679
floor with an upside. You know
that very small difference between floor and upside

172
00:13:28.679 --> 00:13:35.399
there that is both extremely high.
Yeah, that he would be more likely

173
00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:39.960
than Strider, in my opinion,
to not make the top five. But

174
00:13:39.000 --> 00:13:43.559
I think that's going to be more
a vote of confidence in some of those

175
00:13:43.559 --> 00:13:52.399
other names than necessarily a concern about
Garrett Cole's future performance. And at least

176
00:13:52.440 --> 00:13:54.840
with Cole, we're gonna have a
few months to look at a few months

177
00:13:54.879 --> 00:13:56.799
of performance from this year to look
at. Like you, I think he's

178
00:13:56.840 --> 00:14:01.320
the one most likely slip out of
the top five, but he's also the

179
00:14:01.320 --> 00:14:05.759
guy, can you know, be
the next Justin Verlander and just come back

180
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:09.519
and you know, be a candidate
for sy Hailing after the year after being

181
00:14:09.519 --> 00:14:13.919
injured. So got that kind of
talent and track record, So so scoobling

182
00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:16.960
schemes, they're they're going to break
into the top line, I think.

183
00:14:18.080 --> 00:14:20.879
Or this is not a flash in
the pan, This isn't a fluke not

184
00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:24.240
agree with I agree with you.
In fact, early in the ranking season,

185
00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:28.320
I was so so high on Schoolable
and I backed off just the slightest

186
00:14:28.320 --> 00:14:31.879
bit. I should have dug in. I should have just dug in with

187
00:14:31.960 --> 00:14:35.159
him, and I thought so,
and I thought I was thinking of my

188
00:14:35.200 --> 00:14:39.159
heart wore my head, but glad
to see it next. Next two names

189
00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:43.960
I've written down Tanner How and Tyler
glass Now both putting up very very solid

190
00:14:45.039 --> 00:14:52.120
years. And are are these guys
who are Glass Now is just striking everybody

191
00:14:52.120 --> 00:14:54.559
out. He's got a thirty four
point five K percentage and a seven percent

192
00:14:54.600 --> 00:14:58.720
walk percentage. Tanner How twenty four
point five and a four percent walk percent

193
00:14:58.759 --> 00:15:03.519
He's not walking anybody. Both of
them have a whip under one. You

194
00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:07.480
know, he sustainable. And of
these two guys going to be knocking to

195
00:15:07.679 --> 00:15:13.399
you know, I'm having a hard
time with How and maybe that's just a

196
00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:18.639
blind spot on my end, but
he's been around long enough for this feels

197
00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:26.240
like it could be the career year, though he's definitely not. You know,

198
00:15:26.279 --> 00:15:33.600
he's not old here by any means, right, And he's tough.

199
00:15:33.879 --> 00:15:39.399
He's tough, he's flashed it before
and so and you know, this kind

200
00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:45.840
of is what jives with what I
was saying saying early on in this conversation,

201
00:15:46.000 --> 00:15:50.240
is that, like, I mean, what was Tanner Hawk's redraft ADP.

202
00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:52.600
I have no clue, but I
can tell you it was not.

203
00:15:52.120 --> 00:16:00.120
You know, the top twenty arms
taken is probably closer to top eighty sixty,

204
00:16:00.159 --> 00:16:07.840
perhaps and it's just every year it's
these we have different excelling pitchers that

205
00:16:07.960 --> 00:16:15.519
in season are worth paying for when
you're chasing the championship. But Pablo Lopez

206
00:16:15.639 --> 00:16:19.200
is the other side of the coin
where I was super high on him coming

207
00:16:19.200 --> 00:16:22.559
into the year. I had said
he was going to be my cy young

208
00:16:22.600 --> 00:16:30.000
pick. He was showing five pitches
and he was excelling with that that just

209
00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:37.000
up in Minnesota and this year who
I don't know. I can't even explain

210
00:16:37.080 --> 00:16:41.039
Pablo Lopez right now. And it's
just but it could click at any moment

211
00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:45.039
and he could start becoming dominant.
But what I trade for him in one

212
00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:48.960
of my my championship leagues, I'm
gonna wait till that becomes a trend.

213
00:16:51.559 --> 00:16:57.600
And uh yeah, I mean that's
that. This is the difficulty with arms,

214
00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:03.360
Yeah, and with Town or how
he has ninety one innings pitch so

215
00:17:03.480 --> 00:17:07.119
far. His career high is one
hundred and six. That was last year.

216
00:17:07.400 --> 00:17:12.039
So is he finally healthy or is
he do for well and then something

217
00:17:12.079 --> 00:17:15.400
to happen. And even if it
doesn't happen, how high can he go?

218
00:17:15.599 --> 00:17:18.039
Can he get to two hundred without
wearing out when he's never been over

219
00:17:18.039 --> 00:17:19.839
one hundred and six. You know, I don't know. I mean,

220
00:17:19.880 --> 00:17:26.640
he's a big guy, but that's
what has me wondering about all right,

221
00:17:26.279 --> 00:17:29.359
I don't I don't have him rushed
anywhere, but if I did, I'd

222
00:17:29.359 --> 00:17:33.599
be really happy right now. But
I might also be thinking, you know,

223
00:17:33.960 --> 00:17:38.519
if he's one you're looking to acquire. Inian's limits are a thing,

224
00:17:38.680 --> 00:17:47.519
whether you know they might start just
those phantomil stints perhaps who knows, But

225
00:17:48.319 --> 00:17:55.559
teams everyone's aware of the volatility of
arms and you got to take it all

226
00:17:55.599 --> 00:18:00.000
into account. And Glasdown's in the
same boat that way. He's a little

227
00:18:00.119 --> 00:18:03.480
bit older, a couple years older, and he has a pitch more than

228
00:18:03.480 --> 00:18:06.039
one hundred and twenty and it's himself, and he's up to eighty six this

229
00:18:06.119 --> 00:18:08.839
year, so a little more dynamic, little flash year, you know,

230
00:18:10.039 --> 00:18:14.640
playing on a more successful team.
I think that the Red Sox are probably

231
00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:18.200
more likely to rest Hawk because the
Red Sox aren't going to go anywhere this

232
00:18:18.279 --> 00:18:23.000
year. The Dodgers, in the
other hand, are, so they want

233
00:18:23.000 --> 00:18:26.519
to save them for the playoffs,
but they also want to make sure they

234
00:18:26.599 --> 00:18:30.119
win their division and their you know, poise where they want to be going

235
00:18:30.119 --> 00:18:33.599
into the playoffs, So I don't
know how they'll they hand your handle glass

236
00:18:33.640 --> 00:18:37.519
now, But the talent's always been
there, and it's just kind of the

237
00:18:37.759 --> 00:18:41.000
longevity and the durability to get through
the season. But boy, he's putting

238
00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:51.880
up some really nice numbers right now. So the next year, gare Crochet

239
00:18:52.039 --> 00:18:56.920
and Cole Reagan's who kind of lumped
together, but for slightly different reasons,

240
00:18:56.920 --> 00:19:02.839
but I think their career trajectory is
somewhat similar. Garrett Crochet, as you

241
00:19:02.880 --> 00:19:07.400
may recall, when he was drafted, he came right up that year and

242
00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:11.680
the White Sox brought him up and
pulled him into the bullpen, and he

243
00:19:12.160 --> 00:19:18.079
had been a starter in college.
Now that he's kind of groomed and he

244
00:19:18.079 --> 00:19:21.519
can't really go by track records,
he's pitching reliever kind of innings before and

245
00:19:21.519 --> 00:19:23.200
then I think there's an injury in
there as well. But got off to

246
00:19:23.240 --> 00:19:26.759
a really good start, a little
bit of stumble, but he's been really

247
00:19:26.799 --> 00:19:30.759
hot again lately, a three one
sixty area overall. His his whip is

248
00:19:30.559 --> 00:19:37.160
uh one point zero point nine zero
pardon me, is Crochet for real?

249
00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:41.799
And we have to start moving him
way up the rankings or you still wouldn't

250
00:19:41.799 --> 00:19:47.000
see. Yeah, I'm I'm in
on crochet. Uh you know that fastball

251
00:19:47.079 --> 00:19:52.839
slider combo. It's just clicking.
And I think it's unfortunate. I think

252
00:19:55.079 --> 00:19:57.240
I don't want to say he gets
ignored because he's definitely not being ignored,

253
00:19:57.319 --> 00:20:02.680
but pitching for the White Sox it's
not helping. But yeah, he's I

254
00:20:02.680 --> 00:20:04.960
think, no, he'll He'll definitely
be near the top of my ranks,

255
00:20:06.160 --> 00:20:11.039
that's for sure. Cole Reagan's I
was not a believer, and I'm becoming

256
00:20:11.039 --> 00:20:14.359
one. It's so funny. I'm
so quick to like hop on some prospects,

257
00:20:14.359 --> 00:20:17.279
like oh, this guy looks really
good, and then once the guy's

258
00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:18.079
a Cole Reagan's kid, I like, oh, I want to see it

259
00:20:18.119 --> 00:20:22.160
for a couple of years. I
think part of that is I don't trust

260
00:20:22.240 --> 00:20:27.160
Kansas City and he came up through
the Texas system, so they haven't had

261
00:20:27.160 --> 00:20:33.319
too long to He'll be polite.
He didn't come up with the Kansas City

262
00:20:33.319 --> 00:20:37.400
system. He came up through a
bit of a stronger pitching development system.

263
00:20:37.680 --> 00:20:41.039
But he is, Yeah, he
throws that kitchen sink. I mean,

264
00:20:41.559 --> 00:20:47.839
it's like, I don't know how
many's almost that you Darvish pitch pitch selection.

265
00:20:48.759 --> 00:20:51.960
I don't know if anyone will ever
touch that. However, many types

266
00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:57.440
of pitches that guy can throw,
but it's insane, and I honestly he's

267
00:20:57.480 --> 00:21:03.440
another one that it's just dealing.
And he's had some not quite as good

268
00:21:03.519 --> 00:21:10.960
games. He hasn't been fully consistent. But I'm in on the Reagans train

269
00:21:11.079 --> 00:21:14.200
for certain too. I get the
last one I want to throw out right

270
00:21:14.200 --> 00:21:15.839
now. I mean, I could
talk about a bunch of these guys a

271
00:21:15.920 --> 00:21:18.200
long time. But Joe Ryan is
quietly having the year I thought he was

272
00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:22.279
going to have. I think he
started a little bit slow, but his

273
00:21:22.319 --> 00:21:27.960
whip is under one. His k
percentage is twenty six point nine, like

274
00:21:29.000 --> 00:21:30.559
you see a little bit higher,
but his walk percentage is four point two,

275
00:21:30.640 --> 00:21:34.720
So like Tanner Houck, he's also
not walking anybody at all, three

276
00:21:34.759 --> 00:21:38.680
point two four e er. So
tell me I had Joe Ryan winning the

277
00:21:38.720 --> 00:21:45.599
cy Young coming in it's my really
fantastic forecasts made me hear the words better

278
00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:56.119
than my Pablo. You know,
he's he's got that deception, but you

279
00:21:56.119 --> 00:22:02.400
look at his you know, his
stuff plus and it's really pedestrian more than

280
00:22:02.480 --> 00:22:07.359
I mean, I hate that term, but it's average, right, I'm

281
00:22:07.400 --> 00:22:11.839
pulling them up as we're talking.
But his stuff plus is ninety eight.

282
00:22:11.880 --> 00:22:14.640
His location plus is one O seven, which is actually pretty good. And

283
00:22:14.680 --> 00:22:18.279
that's where he's really thriving, right, is just being able to locate.

284
00:22:18.319 --> 00:22:22.920
And he's got a handful of average
pitches, about average to above average pitches,

285
00:22:23.759 --> 00:22:30.559
and it's good. He works great
with it. But and he's hellent

286
00:22:30.680 --> 00:22:36.039
thrown a hell of a season.
So he gives up more home runs and

287
00:22:36.079 --> 00:22:38.319
than most of the guys on this
list, you know that. And I

288
00:22:38.359 --> 00:22:47.279
think that's related to him being more
of that command type type of arm.

289
00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:51.319
Anybody else you want to talk about
anybody else, even hot starts or anybody

290
00:22:51.319 --> 00:22:56.880
else, well, I mean it's
hard to ignore Luis Gill in New York

291
00:22:56.960 --> 00:23:00.519
there. We were talking a little
bit about him on the discord and I

292
00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:04.279
said I would do a dive and
talk about him today. So you know,

293
00:23:06.599 --> 00:23:08.559
when all of a sudden done,
when I'm looking at him, Uh,

294
00:23:10.440 --> 00:23:12.279
it's it's hard. It's hard.
He's one that is I don't want

295
00:23:12.279 --> 00:23:15.079
to say, is an enigma by
any means. He's definitely gonna skyrocket.

296
00:23:15.119 --> 00:23:18.079
Where was he? I don't know, I would be surprised if he was

297
00:23:18.119 --> 00:23:22.279
even on our list preseason. I
did not. I failed to look at

298
00:23:22.279 --> 00:23:27.200
that he's not. I mean,
he's got such a you know, the

299
00:23:27.319 --> 00:23:33.359
yin and yang of numbers here.
You know, he's top ten or so

300
00:23:33.480 --> 00:23:38.759
in his k's and k rates,
he's in qualified pitchers. He's second worst

301
00:23:38.880 --> 00:23:45.319
with walk rates with almost twelve percent
walk right, but he's striking out over

302
00:23:45.400 --> 00:23:49.400
thirty percent, which is great obviously, Right, he's coming back from Tommy

303
00:23:49.440 --> 00:23:55.680
John in twenty two. He pitched
a career high leading into that Tommy John.

304
00:23:56.640 --> 00:24:02.799
So I would be surprised. The
Yankees are going to continue. You

305
00:24:02.799 --> 00:24:06.519
know, they're performing well right now. So I bet they'll do some sort

306
00:24:06.559 --> 00:24:08.960
of phantomile stints for him to manage. But I don't think they're going to

307
00:24:10.039 --> 00:24:15.480
probably, you know, do a
hard cap by any means or that however,

308
00:24:15.519 --> 00:24:19.480
you know, one hundred and twenty
or one hundred and whatever it means.

309
00:24:19.880 --> 00:24:26.039
But where I get a little concerned
is that he's got a ground ball

310
00:24:26.119 --> 00:24:30.039
right when you look at him amongst
the leaderboard, he's got a ground ball

311
00:24:30.119 --> 00:24:37.200
rate of thirty seven percent. Uh
and somehow it is only allowing six and

312
00:24:37.240 --> 00:24:40.200
a half home runs per fly ball, so he's, like I mean,

313
00:24:40.279 --> 00:24:45.319
pitching in Yankee Stadium. It seems
like he's just getting lucky with these with

314
00:24:45.400 --> 00:24:49.279
these hits. I can't say that
I've watched every single starter or every a

315
00:24:49.319 --> 00:24:53.440
single fly out of his, but
that those are numbers that just make me

316
00:24:53.519 --> 00:24:59.240
a little wary. And couple in
with that, he's only got a twelve

317
00:24:59.240 --> 00:25:04.400
percent swing great, even though he
does have a called strike a cold strike

318
00:25:04.440 --> 00:25:10.079
whiff rate of twenty eight percent,
So some of these k numbers might not

319
00:25:10.200 --> 00:25:14.359
be quite as strong. So I
don't know if he's a sell because he's

320
00:25:14.359 --> 00:25:21.279
pitching excellently, but he could be
one of these that is gonna fluctuate next

321
00:25:21.359 --> 00:25:25.960
year, I guess. Is more
what I'm thinking. He's really a tough

322
00:25:25.960 --> 00:25:30.599
position. He's really a tough position
if you own him. I have a

323
00:25:30.599 --> 00:25:37.039
couple shares. I'm not looking to
move him, but if someone came asking,

324
00:25:37.079 --> 00:25:41.359
I'd probably continue those talks. See
what happens, see what the kind

325
00:25:41.359 --> 00:25:45.559
of price. But it's not really
a hard set. I know, I'm

326
00:25:45.599 --> 00:25:52.680
not giving him a ringing endorsement or
say or the opposite, but he's a

327
00:25:52.319 --> 00:25:57.880
real not an enigma. But he
is. Definitely, he's a tough one.

328
00:25:57.920 --> 00:26:04.759
He embodied the difficulties I have with
Dynasty Baseball and pictures. So on

329
00:26:04.799 --> 00:26:11.960
the surface looks good, not quite
enough to close hoods from the radio up

330
00:26:11.000 --> 00:26:15.400
louder, Yeah, I like that. There we go and listen for the

331
00:26:15.440 --> 00:26:21.599
next Riot song. We spent some
time pre season debating Logan Web or Blake

332
00:26:21.680 --> 00:26:25.920
Snell and if I took Snell,
and I'm going to get back and change

333
00:26:25.920 --> 00:26:30.640
it to Web, who did I
take? I probably took Snell, that's

334
00:26:30.880 --> 00:26:33.559
I mean. And Web is doing
what he does, which is great,

335
00:26:33.720 --> 00:26:40.200
but that's just not what I look
for my Dynasty roster. But it's much

336
00:26:40.240 --> 00:26:44.880
better. It's much better than Snell. Hey, anybody else in the majors

337
00:26:44.880 --> 00:26:47.559
now you want to talk about before
we move on to the prospect No,

338
00:26:47.880 --> 00:26:52.400
I'm good. Let's let's roll all
right. Let me walk through who we

339
00:26:52.519 --> 00:26:56.519
had a little bit deeper on this
list with our initial prospect list. You

340
00:26:56.599 --> 00:27:02.240
see a few of them have already
graduate, waited or are in the majors,

341
00:27:02.279 --> 00:27:07.000
and we'll graduate by the end of
the season. And then a few

342
00:27:07.799 --> 00:27:11.000
haven't pitched or already are injured right
now. Coming to the season, we

343
00:27:11.039 --> 00:27:15.839
had Paul Skeen's number one, Jackson
Job number two, followed by Kate Horton,

344
00:27:17.000 --> 00:27:21.440
Ricky Tiedeman, Andrew Patner, A
J. Smith, Shauber, Kyle

345
00:27:21.480 --> 00:27:27.359
Harrison, Hurston Waldrup, Jacob Mizzierowski, and Chase Hampton. That rounds up

346
00:27:27.400 --> 00:27:30.920
our top ten. And after that
we had Mason Miller, Noah Schultz,

347
00:27:32.000 --> 00:27:37.279
Robbie Snelling, Dylan LESCo, Yarro
Iriarte, Drew Thorpe, Nobel Meyer,

348
00:27:37.559 --> 00:27:41.839
Daniel Espino, Decora, Robi Ben
Brown, Carson Wizon Hunt, and Connor

349
00:27:41.880 --> 00:27:45.880
Phillips. That was our second tier. So it's actually twenty two names,

350
00:27:45.920 --> 00:27:51.240
so a lot of names there last
year of the top twenty or so,

351
00:27:52.359 --> 00:27:55.799
most of them are doing well.
I mean they're either there's a few were

352
00:27:55.799 --> 00:28:00.799
injured or but I think that's been
a pretty solid group with a few exceptions

353
00:28:00.880 --> 00:28:03.319
ad I'll kind of bring up.
But to start on the positive, we've

354
00:28:03.319 --> 00:28:07.759
seen Drew Thorpe get called up in
good start with his first start, Kirstin

355
00:28:07.799 --> 00:28:14.079
Waldrip pitch the other day and the
numbers weren't great in the end, but

356
00:28:14.359 --> 00:28:17.279
it wasn't a bad performance. He
as Iver call I kind of got in

357
00:28:17.359 --> 00:28:22.079
trouble with in one inning, so
kind of wait and see their who's jumping

358
00:28:22.119 --> 00:28:26.400
out at you from the from that
list, who's going to be your number

359
00:28:26.440 --> 00:28:29.960
one or number two prospect going in
the next year off. I mean,

360
00:28:30.240 --> 00:28:33.160
do you think in that I can't. I think you said he was in

361
00:28:33.200 --> 00:28:37.000
the second tier. He was in
my top ten, but that's Noah Schultz.

362
00:28:37.799 --> 00:28:42.839
You probably had an Inklean I would
bring him up. Yeah, he's

363
00:28:42.880 --> 00:28:48.519
he's Yeah, he's doing everything we
dream of at high A, although he

364
00:28:48.599 --> 00:28:53.279
also just got promoted I think last
week to double A, where he's doing

365
00:28:53.319 --> 00:28:59.759
it still and he has much like
my ZEBI call. He isn't walking anyone

366
00:29:00.039 --> 00:29:03.960
in double A. I don't think
that will last as long as Ebbs.

367
00:29:03.359 --> 00:29:08.759
But yeah, no, uh is
so far healthy. You know, innings

368
00:29:08.799 --> 00:29:15.160
will be something to watch his health, of course, but uh, that

369
00:29:15.279 --> 00:29:21.279
kid can sling the ball and his
slider fastball combo is just glorious. So

370
00:29:23.359 --> 00:29:29.880
it's hard. It's hard for me
not to see Chris Saal with him and

371
00:29:30.160 --> 00:29:36.759
uh uh it's it's a lot of
fun and I like to I can't wait

372
00:29:36.799 --> 00:29:40.720
to see what happens. I can
see him hopefully making He's gonna be probably

373
00:29:40.759 --> 00:29:47.240
my number top three prospect arm I'm
not gonna go quite the top one yet,

374
00:29:48.000 --> 00:29:52.640
but uh, I'm excited to see
him hopefully in the majors next year.

375
00:29:52.799 --> 00:29:56.640
It's my guess if this continues,
yeah, I can see that,

376
00:29:56.960 --> 00:30:02.720
I think. Uh I I still
don't know. I know we talked about

377
00:30:02.720 --> 00:30:07.440
whether we thought Detroit would call Job
up or not. I still think that

378
00:30:07.480 --> 00:30:15.960
depends if they trade making trades going
the deadline. If Jack Flaherty probably be

379
00:30:15.000 --> 00:30:18.880
flirty, I don't know if May
is going to get any interest or not,

380
00:30:18.559 --> 00:30:21.839
uh, you know, get traded
for pieces, then there might be

381
00:30:21.880 --> 00:30:25.640
a spot for Job to step up. You really hit the nail on the

382
00:30:25.680 --> 00:30:27.519
head with that one, though,
didn't you know he threw water on my

383
00:30:29.400 --> 00:30:32.720
hopes of him being up by now
and well yeah, and I wasn't trying

384
00:30:32.720 --> 00:30:34.759
to be negative about it. I
just saw them. No, you were

385
00:30:36.319 --> 00:30:41.200
realistic instead of my instead of my
hope. I really like a J.

386
00:30:41.319 --> 00:30:44.440
Smith Saber and I watched the start. I thought it looked good. In

387
00:30:44.440 --> 00:30:47.599
the next days on the I l
and I had no idea why, because

388
00:30:47.599 --> 00:30:48.920
he looked great. You know,
he didn't leave the game hurt or anything

389
00:30:48.960 --> 00:30:52.079
like that, so you know,
keep anything. It was something minor,

390
00:30:52.160 --> 00:30:56.880
wasn't it? Yeah, but he's
still there. I mean they haven't didn't

391
00:30:56.920 --> 00:31:00.359
move him off right away either.
I think, you know, Teching would

392
00:31:00.359 --> 00:31:03.599
have been eligible to come off.
But nobel Meyer's another one who who I

393
00:31:03.599 --> 00:31:07.160
think is doing a pretty good job
right now. Is K percentage about twenty

394
00:31:07.240 --> 00:31:11.599
nine percent, walking more people than
i'd like. Is walk percentage at fourteen

395
00:31:11.640 --> 00:31:17.119
percent, that's it A and high
A. So I think he's got to

396
00:31:17.119 --> 00:31:22.759
get that under control. And thirty
eight percent ground ball rate, So a

397
00:31:22.799 --> 00:31:26.559
couple of things that I'm not going
to commit right away to say nobel Meyer's

398
00:31:26.559 --> 00:31:30.160
going to be at the very top, but definitely got a very good chance

399
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:33.480
that he will be. One name
I haven't mentioned yet. He was right

400
00:31:33.480 --> 00:31:40.160
outside our second tier. Maybe I
was wrong. I can say that quietly.

401
00:31:40.279 --> 00:31:48.359
The door's closed. Maybe tink Hens
is not going to be relegated to

402
00:31:48.519 --> 00:31:52.799
the bullpen. He's really putting up
some good numbers the three one nine era,

403
00:31:53.440 --> 00:31:59.519
striking out thirty two percent, only
walking seven percent, really nice numbers

404
00:31:59.519 --> 00:32:02.319
all the way around. His grand
ball rates at I don't know. You

405
00:32:02.319 --> 00:32:07.319
want to you want to dance with
my grave here? No, I wouldn't

406
00:32:07.359 --> 00:32:16.880
do that. To you. You
know, he's he is looking great and

407
00:32:16.920 --> 00:32:22.160
he's getting those case that we were
hoping for last year right in that kind

408
00:32:22.160 --> 00:32:28.079
of stunted season. But now it's
not all. He only pitched two Indians

409
00:32:28.119 --> 00:32:30.799
his last outing. I don't know
if there's any injury there or what.

410
00:32:30.920 --> 00:32:35.599
So I think that I don't want
to say jury is still out. I

411
00:32:35.599 --> 00:32:39.519
think he's showing that he can be
a starter. It's all about that workload

412
00:32:39.519 --> 00:32:45.039
again for him, in my opinion. And but if he's if it is

413
00:32:45.079 --> 00:32:52.920
another injury, you know, he
goes back to your high impact bullpen arm.

414
00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:58.559
So potential. Not saying that's definitely
going to close the door on that.

415
00:32:58.759 --> 00:33:02.720
But yeah, he's he's looking great, and hey, don't worry,

416
00:33:02.759 --> 00:33:10.720
Drew. I have plenty of missus
myself. I'm just so vocal about taking

417
00:33:10.720 --> 00:33:14.440
a couple of different forums that I'm
thinking, oh boy, it's gonna hat

418
00:33:14.519 --> 00:33:20.160
me and a few names. I
know, we tend not to dwell too

419
00:33:20.200 --> 00:33:22.400
much on the negative. And you
know, there's a young man who are

420
00:33:22.440 --> 00:33:28.480
working hard at their profession, but
Carson wizen Hunt is not living up to

421
00:33:29.359 --> 00:33:30.920
I think the ranking we had for
him. I had I was probably the

422
00:33:30.960 --> 00:33:36.000
high man on him in the group
as well. But at Triple A his

423
00:33:36.880 --> 00:33:40.799
ears at five point four seven and
that doesn't mean everything in the world striking

424
00:33:40.839 --> 00:33:44.759
up people to thirty percent rate,
but it's got twelve percent walk rate,

425
00:33:45.799 --> 00:33:47.640
so that eats into that. It's
giving up fifty one hits and fifty one

426
00:33:47.640 --> 00:33:52.440
innings and twenty nine walks on top
of that, so the whip's not that

427
00:33:52.519 --> 00:33:55.880
strong. He's given up eight home
runs, which among the highest of the

428
00:33:57.039 --> 00:34:00.799
of the pictures on the in this
short list that we're talking about right here.

429
00:34:00.759 --> 00:34:05.079
H do you pay attention to him? Have you seen anything? I

430
00:34:05.119 --> 00:34:08.280
know he's you hate see somebody have
their worst year in the minors in Triple

431
00:34:08.320 --> 00:34:14.159
A and yeah, that's that's the
system where yeah, I could see him

432
00:34:14.159 --> 00:34:16.360
calling him up for a start here
and there, but he's not really fortuing

433
00:34:16.400 --> 00:34:24.400
his way in well, I guess
he's in the Triple A. Is where's

434
00:34:24.440 --> 00:34:29.280
the Giants Triple A affiliate? I'm
blanking on him, But is that the

435
00:34:29.280 --> 00:34:31.440
Pacific Coast League? I mean that
is a homer you know, a bat

436
00:34:31.840 --> 00:34:38.800
heavy triple Triple A league. But
you know, the biggest, in my

437
00:34:38.840 --> 00:34:45.519
opinion, the biggest knock against wisen
Hunt is he's a fastball change up guy

438
00:34:45.559 --> 00:34:52.360
for the most part, and I
don't like having the number two pitch be

439
00:34:52.440 --> 00:34:59.000
a change up in my prospects.
So that's that's where I would have stayed.

440
00:34:59.039 --> 00:35:02.119
Why I stayed a or one of
the reasons I wasn't as uh as

441
00:35:02.119 --> 00:35:07.719
big of a fan as of his. Another one is uh Dylan LESCo,

442
00:35:07.920 --> 00:35:15.960
who on that downside only striking out
twenty three percent, walking eighteen percent.

443
00:35:15.760 --> 00:35:20.360
It's just a horrible ratio between those
two. Yeah, you know, if

444
00:35:20.360 --> 00:35:24.280
there's a silver lining, uh the
actually no, I can't find one.

445
00:35:24.320 --> 00:35:28.400
The flyball rate is fifty one percent. I was thinking somebody else has got

446
00:35:29.239 --> 00:35:34.239
somebody else's I'm gonna talk about Later's
got better ground ball rate, but uh

447
00:35:34.440 --> 00:35:37.400
Lesco's ground ball rates only twenty eight
percent. So they're hitting it, hitting

448
00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:39.280
the ball a lot, they're hitting
it in the air. High A twenty

449
00:35:39.320 --> 00:35:42.559
years old, got a way to
go. I think, you know,

450
00:35:42.599 --> 00:35:47.000
you're always saying progressions in a linear
but I really thought of high A he

451
00:35:47.079 --> 00:35:52.679
dominated a little bit more than he
used to. Totally agree. Yeah,

452
00:35:52.719 --> 00:36:00.760
it's it's unfortunate because and he had
a cup up there last year and he

453
00:36:00.840 --> 00:36:02.679
walked a lot of people then too, but you know that's kind of been

454
00:36:02.719 --> 00:36:10.400
his biggest weakness. But he's also
not striking out, so something hopefully.

455
00:36:10.440 --> 00:36:13.960
You know, he just came off
of a Tommy John I believe too,

456
00:36:14.159 --> 00:36:16.840
or when he was drafted he was
coming off Tommy John. Yeah, right,

457
00:36:19.639 --> 00:36:25.679
yeah, So it's a little spooky
seeing this in his first full year

458
00:36:25.840 --> 00:36:31.679
healthy makes me a little nervous that
there might be something going on as that's

459
00:36:31.719 --> 00:36:37.000
pure speculation. I don't know,
because it's not what we like to see.

460
00:36:37.320 --> 00:36:40.320
Right before we talk about prospects.
Maybe knocking on the door of our

461
00:36:40.320 --> 00:36:45.599
top twenty, anybody in that group
you want to talk about. No,

462
00:36:45.800 --> 00:36:51.480
Actually, I was gonna, unfortunately
have to fess up about Dylan Lasco because

463
00:36:51.519 --> 00:36:55.960
I had him at twelve so below. I had him for three spots ahead

464
00:36:57.000 --> 00:37:05.480
of Robbie Snelling, who's excelling this
counterpart. So who's in the next group?

465
00:37:05.480 --> 00:37:08.239
Who do you see knocking on the
door? Who's the names? You

466
00:37:08.280 --> 00:37:10.519
think, Hey, we're gonna be
talking about these guys in the top twenty

467
00:37:10.559 --> 00:37:16.719
next year, Well, i'd be
it'd be sad if I didn't bring up

468
00:37:16.840 --> 00:37:22.760
Zebbie Matthews. Of course, who
are faithful listeners will know that we brought

469
00:37:22.800 --> 00:37:27.039
him up multiple times, but now
he's basically everywhere, and he's probably a

470
00:37:27.079 --> 00:37:32.639
top considered a definitely considered a top
twenty pitching prospect at this point, so

471
00:37:32.800 --> 00:37:40.559
he'll be up there. Scrolling further
down the list, I think Blade Tidwell

472
00:37:40.840 --> 00:37:46.480
is jumping up. I'm looking at
him on my list areas we had him

473
00:37:46.480 --> 00:37:50.559
at fifty six. Overall, I
think he'll be in the top twenty,

474
00:37:50.960 --> 00:37:54.039
although his last couple outings haven't been
quite as strong. I don't believe he's

475
00:37:54.079 --> 00:37:59.280
one of the names that I'm seeing
lower down that I know would be doing

476
00:37:59.280 --> 00:38:02.960
a little bit. We'll be ranking
higher. Christian Scott, I don't you

477
00:38:04.000 --> 00:38:06.840
know. Right now he's in the
minors again. I think he'll end up

478
00:38:06.880 --> 00:38:09.079
going back to the majors. We
probably should have talked about him there.

479
00:38:12.039 --> 00:38:15.239
Yeah, good point. Everything I've
read says he's just down there for a

480
00:38:15.239 --> 00:38:21.519
little bit of inningsy management and or
then the Mets manager said, with the

481
00:38:21.559 --> 00:38:22.840
days off they have coming up,
they're just going to be using the five

482
00:38:22.840 --> 00:38:27.760
man rotation. They won't need him, but he'll be back up within a

483
00:38:27.800 --> 00:38:31.920
month, no doubt about it.
And where do we lose Rookie eligibility is

484
00:38:31.960 --> 00:38:37.840
at fifty or thirty. I always
forget with fifty fifty. So it's odds

485
00:38:37.840 --> 00:38:43.280
are hill because he had what four
starts or so, So I'd be surprised

486
00:38:43.320 --> 00:38:45.880
if he saw had rocky eligibility.
I guess anyone jumping out to you,

487
00:38:46.719 --> 00:38:54.559
I got a few Matt Wilkinson over
in Cleveland. Oh yeah, Actually there's

488
00:38:54.559 --> 00:38:57.239
a bunch of it. We're kind
of rolling in the deep when we look

489
00:38:57.239 --> 00:39:00.880
at some of the young pictures who
are coming up. But uh, Matt

490
00:39:00.920 --> 00:39:07.159
Wilkins. He's striking up forty six
percent of batters and walking six which is

491
00:39:07.480 --> 00:39:09.360
pretty impressive. On top of that, he's got a forty five percent ground

492
00:39:09.400 --> 00:39:15.679
ball rate, all great indicators early
on of you know, twenty one year

493
00:39:15.719 --> 00:39:20.880
old. He's they moved him into
High A this year. I think he's

494
00:39:21.519 --> 00:39:23.840
could be top ten, depending who
graduates and you know, out of the

495
00:39:24.159 --> 00:39:29.800
out of the group that we have
and who stays healthy. So that's one

496
00:39:30.000 --> 00:39:35.119
at Christian Scott with somebody else that's
going to talk about. Detroit's got another

497
00:39:35.199 --> 00:39:39.440
kid coming up, Jaden Ham,
who there's some chatter about on the baseball

498
00:39:39.480 --> 00:39:43.119
Twitter and the like, and for
good reason. You know, he's at

499
00:39:43.159 --> 00:39:47.320
a ball and again striking out thirty
four percent, he's walking three percent,

500
00:39:49.239 --> 00:39:52.559
uh, and just putting us some
really solid numbers there, and he's got

501
00:39:52.599 --> 00:40:00.880
a nice, niceis pitch selection.
I know, I have rostered a couple

502
00:40:00.920 --> 00:40:04.320
places, and I'm getting a ton
of offers some people for him, so

503
00:40:05.159 --> 00:40:07.559
they may think I don't know what
I have, and others look pretty tempting,

504
00:40:07.639 --> 00:40:10.039
so I might might see what I
can get for him on a couple

505
00:40:10.039 --> 00:40:14.719
of them. But I got a
few, which one we want to pick

506
00:40:14.760 --> 00:40:22.960
up? Here's here's what I found, Jack Dryer or Dreader, who is

507
00:40:22.000 --> 00:40:27.119
in the Dodgers system double A and
triple A. And you would think I

508
00:40:27.159 --> 00:40:30.639
know the Dodger system better from that
league with playing where we're quit after the

509
00:40:30.679 --> 00:40:32.320
minor leaguers, and all of a
sudden, I find this guy's got a

510
00:40:32.360 --> 00:40:37.599
one point zero five ERA, striking
out thirty six percent and only walked four

511
00:40:37.639 --> 00:40:42.840
percent, and really off to a
really strong year. And that's that's only

512
00:40:42.880 --> 00:40:47.239
twenty five innings so far. So
maybe why he is just now hitting my

513
00:40:47.360 --> 00:40:53.000
radar. But so I didn't know
whether to talk about him or call him

514
00:40:53.000 --> 00:40:55.280
my sneaky deep, but I didn't
want to call a triple a pitcher a

515
00:40:55.320 --> 00:40:59.840
sneaky deep. So I don't know
enough about him yet to say he'll be

516
00:41:00.000 --> 00:41:05.480
top twenty, but he's some of
him. I'm starting to dive in on

517
00:41:05.559 --> 00:41:08.079
and take a little bit of closer
look, and it's Jack Dryer d r

518
00:41:09.079 --> 00:41:14.400
e y e Ry's looking him up. I'd call him a sneaky deep.

519
00:41:14.480 --> 00:41:21.519
You know, the problem, as
we all know what those Dodgers pitchers is

520
00:41:21.559 --> 00:41:28.400
that you know there's there's always three
of these guys, it seems like,

521
00:41:29.960 --> 00:41:35.119
but those those those numbers are hard
to ignore. A couple anybody else you

522
00:41:35.159 --> 00:41:37.360
want to talk about this, A
couple of guys, just curious guys.

523
00:41:37.360 --> 00:41:39.039
I want to ask you if you
know what's going on? Well, the

524
00:41:39.159 --> 00:41:45.280
other one, you know, our
buddy Doc Holliday is always raving about Travis

525
00:41:45.840 --> 00:41:53.719
Psykora, little Mabel as I call
him. But yeah, he's he's doing

526
00:41:53.760 --> 00:41:59.559
what he does best, low way
as a twenty year old, and he's

527
00:41:59.559 --> 00:42:01.880
striking out his fair shared, limiting
those walks, which you know, you

528
00:42:01.920 --> 00:42:07.000
get a little concerned with some of
those young, tall guys. But he's

529
00:42:07.519 --> 00:42:15.800
he's he's showing the signs of being
worth that that day one pick from by

530
00:42:15.840 --> 00:42:20.519
the Nationals there, so he's looking
pretty good too. Yeah, and I

531
00:42:20.559 --> 00:42:23.000
for difficet to mention Hayden bird Song, who I talk about a lot,

532
00:42:23.320 --> 00:42:27.400
had been called up to Triple A. He hasn't made an appearance with him

533
00:42:27.440 --> 00:42:31.079
yet when I looked on Fangrafts earlier, but he got called up earlier in

534
00:42:31.079 --> 00:42:36.199
the week. So San Francisco's got
there eyeing him. He's still striking people

535
00:42:36.239 --> 00:42:39.559
out over thirty percent, and his
walks are down over last year or so.

536
00:42:40.280 --> 00:42:45.800
That ratio is getting even better.
And he's a big tall drink of

537
00:42:45.840 --> 00:42:51.400
water. And yeah, Sanrancisco's got
some some depth there. And I know

538
00:42:51.440 --> 00:42:52.920
they like the old guys on there
major league roster, but I think the

539
00:42:52.920 --> 00:42:58.079
opportunity is going to be there,
all right. So Carlos Rodriguez got called

540
00:42:58.119 --> 00:43:02.679
up for a spots start with Milwaukee. He was there Minor League Picture of

541
00:43:02.679 --> 00:43:07.440
the Year two years ago. Don't
ask me how I know that. You

542
00:43:07.480 --> 00:43:12.360
know, you hear things and certain
things just stick. Probably because I love

543
00:43:12.480 --> 00:43:15.199
Robert Gassers so much. I thought, my gosh, who's better than Robert

544
00:43:15.280 --> 00:43:21.599
Gasser And it turns out Carlos Rodriguez
was that year, but not no overall

545
00:43:22.079 --> 00:43:27.039
not having a great year statistically,
though. I've actually moved on from him

546
00:43:27.320 --> 00:43:30.559
on a few of my rosters.
The only thing that I see that I

547
00:43:30.719 --> 00:43:36.360
like, he's got a pretty high
ground ball rate. I don't know.

548
00:43:36.360 --> 00:43:37.559
I know you're in the area.
I don't know how closely you follow the

549
00:43:37.599 --> 00:43:40.519
Brewers. Was they just need a
picture? Is that why they called him

550
00:43:40.559 --> 00:43:45.239
up? Or are they seeing something
that I don't see? Do the Brewers

551
00:43:45.280 --> 00:43:50.679
need a picture? Yeah? Oh? Man, Yeah, you know,

552
00:43:50.920 --> 00:43:58.719
I think I don't follow their their
beat writers by any means. I'm only

553
00:44:00.039 --> 00:44:07.559
locally a fan, I guess more
than anything. But yeah, he's been

554
00:44:07.840 --> 00:44:13.119
a on fantasy radars since that minor
at least since that Minor League Player of

555
00:44:13.119 --> 00:44:20.440
the Year, So it's you know, he's he's It's been a pleasant surprise

556
00:44:21.280 --> 00:44:25.719
that he was, that he was
called up, And you know, I

557
00:44:25.800 --> 00:44:34.000
don't know why he wouldn't keep uh
being a being a viable fantasy player going

558
00:44:34.039 --> 00:44:37.440
forward either. So it may have
been short term that he's up here,

559
00:44:38.519 --> 00:44:45.480
but I expect to see him more. I mean that that that rotation is

560
00:44:45.519 --> 00:44:53.280
in shambles, so and they're the
Brewers themselves, are you know, they're

561
00:44:53.360 --> 00:44:58.760
they're kind of running. They're probably
going to continue to run away with the

562
00:44:58.800 --> 00:45:05.920
division, So he may end up
being one of those that's moved for a

563
00:45:05.960 --> 00:45:13.320
more set in stone picture, you
know, someone who's more established, or

564
00:45:13.519 --> 00:45:16.960
he could continue. You know,
the Brewers also like to watch their pockets,

565
00:45:17.119 --> 00:45:22.280
so I could be completely wrong with
that assumption on my mind too.

566
00:45:23.280 --> 00:45:27.599
Yeah, I think it's gonna be
fun to watch these guys over the next

567
00:45:27.880 --> 00:45:30.719
several weeks and a couple of months. You know, these are not the

568
00:45:30.800 --> 00:45:35.159
names that that we've been looking at, because I think there's some really exciting

569
00:45:35.159 --> 00:45:37.400
starts that some of these younger pictures
are getting off to it and would be

570
00:45:37.440 --> 00:45:43.719
great to see if it's season long, sustainable and going to make a difference

571
00:45:43.760 --> 00:45:46.639
in the rankings, or you know, whether some of them are just getting

572
00:45:46.639 --> 00:45:51.000
off to a hot start, and
sometimes that happens. So, uh,

573
00:45:51.119 --> 00:45:54.920
any real want to talk to before
we get to the sneaky deeps? No,

574
00:45:55.079 --> 00:46:01.960
I think I'm it's good sneaky all
right. Well, I realized that

575
00:46:02.119 --> 00:46:09.760
I might have gone old school aka
not gone that deep, and I'm pulling

576
00:46:09.800 --> 00:46:15.679
it up right now to see what
his roster chip is. It's five percent,

577
00:46:15.760 --> 00:46:22.280
and that's Adam Maco in Toronto.
You know, I completely neglected to

578
00:46:22.960 --> 00:46:28.679
look to see how much he was
rostered. So he's another kind of large,

579
00:46:29.239 --> 00:46:34.519
relatively large arsenal. He got traded
to the Blue Jays by the Mariners

580
00:46:35.599 --> 00:46:39.880
two years ago, I think,
and I forget who that trade was for,

581
00:46:42.719 --> 00:46:45.480
but he got sent to the Blue
Jays and he's just kind of been

582
00:46:45.559 --> 00:46:50.639
piecing his way up slowly surely.
He's in double a pretty successful year this

583
00:46:50.760 --> 00:46:57.760
year. He's got seventy four strikeouts
in sixty one in so not a huge

584
00:46:57.880 --> 00:47:04.360
k guy. But what I like
seeing about his numbers is that year after

585
00:47:04.480 --> 00:47:08.679
year he's been consistent and pretty much
in the same i'd say eleven to twelve

586
00:47:08.800 --> 00:47:17.599
strikeout per nine inning kind of range
with those relatively good four below walks per

587
00:47:17.719 --> 00:47:23.960
nine. So I think he's to
me, that shows like a stable back

588
00:47:24.000 --> 00:47:29.159
of the rotation type arm. He's
not a big guy by any means,

589
00:47:29.760 --> 00:47:36.360
so I don't know if he'll really
fit that workhorse mentality, but I think

590
00:47:36.400 --> 00:47:40.800
he could be a viable depth piece
for our fantasy rosters as we go forward,

591
00:47:40.800 --> 00:47:45.199
and the Blue Blue Jays, part
of me. Blue Jays, the

592
00:47:45.239 --> 00:47:49.079
Blue Jays, you know, who
knows what they're gonna be doing here.

593
00:47:49.119 --> 00:47:52.679
It hasn't been a successful year,
so I don't think he'll get called up

594
00:47:52.800 --> 00:47:59.199
this year necessarily, But he is
on their forty man roster, so it's

595
00:47:59.400 --> 00:48:02.360
if they move out some pieces,
perhaps they'll need him to get some innings

596
00:48:02.400 --> 00:48:06.880
for him. So I think he's
I think he'll be a little decent.

597
00:48:07.199 --> 00:48:14.880
Mine is a picture deep in the
Milwaukee system. Surprise, surprise, you

598
00:48:15.000 --> 00:48:22.280
just keep turning out good pitching prospects
again named Casey Hunt, who's in the

599
00:48:22.400 --> 00:48:28.000
High A right now. He was
drafted out of Mississippi State by the Pirates

600
00:48:28.000 --> 00:48:34.039
originally in twenty two, and then
he must have been traded over shortly thereafter

601
00:48:34.360 --> 00:48:38.519
because he didn't even have any complex
stats of the Pirates. Has been Milwaukee

602
00:48:38.639 --> 00:48:43.840
the past two years, picked in
the fourth round. Then he is twenty

603
00:48:43.840 --> 00:48:46.719
three years old in High A.
But as her dogs say in one of

604
00:48:46.760 --> 00:48:52.639
his episodes, it's not his fault. He's twenty three years old, but

605
00:48:52.760 --> 00:49:00.360
he is. He's dominating and then
some He is striking people out at thirty

606
00:49:00.400 --> 00:49:05.239
eight point five percent rate and walking
them at a two point six percent rate.

607
00:49:06.159 --> 00:49:09.679
So he is pounding the strike zone
and when they hit the ball,

608
00:49:09.719 --> 00:49:13.480
they're hitting it on the ground.
It's got a forty percent ground ball rate.

609
00:49:14.559 --> 00:49:17.920
And you know, I just you
know again, if we're looking deep

610
00:49:19.000 --> 00:49:22.159
and I what I try to do
is look at who's who looks like they're

611
00:49:22.159 --> 00:49:25.400
about to break out and a ball
are high, a ball particularly for for

612
00:49:25.480 --> 00:49:30.159
pitchers. And you know, here's
a guy who's who's numbers right now are

613
00:49:30.239 --> 00:49:31.880
jumping off the page at me.
So you know, put him on a

614
00:49:31.880 --> 00:49:35.960
watch list. I think it'd be
a really deep league before you're rostering him

615
00:49:36.039 --> 00:49:38.960
right now. But he's definitely somebody
I've put on my on my watch list,

616
00:49:39.000 --> 00:49:43.000
and I'm going to see what happens. I think he showed up as

617
00:49:43.239 --> 00:49:46.559
one percent rostered over there in fan
track, so fits abilit either way.

618
00:49:46.679 --> 00:49:52.800
So those are our sneaky deeps.
I've got one trade to throw at you

619
00:49:52.880 --> 00:49:55.039
that was from our discord. And
you've already talked at length about one of

620
00:49:55.039 --> 00:50:00.440
the players involved, Chris as we
No, we don't talk about these ahead

621
00:50:00.440 --> 00:50:06.880
of times, so I'm playing.
So you talked well about Luis gil or

622
00:50:06.960 --> 00:50:10.800
Heil. However, it's pronounced Would
you trade him for CJ. Abrams?

623
00:50:13.079 --> 00:50:19.760
Straight up? Straight up? So
here's the kicker about Abrams. Abrams was

624
00:50:20.679 --> 00:50:27.880
damn sexy to start this season.
He has since cooled off, or at

625
00:50:27.960 --> 00:50:31.639
least last I looked at him.
I'm pulling up his game a log just

626
00:50:31.679 --> 00:50:35.480
to kind of give me a too
late the home run in a double in

627
00:50:35.519 --> 00:50:37.639
then game he gets retires a couple
of days ago. But oh yeah,

628
00:50:38.000 --> 00:50:43.679
I think he has Couladelphia. I'm
just going to do a May fifteenth.

629
00:50:43.760 --> 00:50:47.800
So the last six weeks roughly or
four weeks. CJ. Abrams has had

630
00:50:49.199 --> 00:50:59.119
a nice WRC plus of sixty nine
since May first. It's that good,

631
00:50:59.199 --> 00:51:02.320
Chris. Not good for it.
It's not nice for fantasy baseball purposes.

632
00:51:04.400 --> 00:51:13.760
So you know, my how that
looks a month later, I would not

633
00:51:14.280 --> 00:51:17.920
you know, you know, it's
hard to say that because Abrams has that

634
00:51:19.079 --> 00:51:23.519
ceiling that is a tantalizing ceiling and
is over that same windows. Abram's care

635
00:51:23.559 --> 00:51:28.480
rate it's only been twenty four percent. He's not walking, he's just basically

636
00:51:28.719 --> 00:51:36.960
his ex of velocities almost ninety miles
an hour. That's not terrible. Without

637
00:51:37.039 --> 00:51:40.239
diving in more, I'd say no, but it's possible that this is just

638
00:51:40.280 --> 00:51:46.599
a really cold streak and Abrams could
bounce back. But right now, looking

639
00:51:46.639 --> 00:51:52.760
at this, I think i'd i'd
ask for more, which is which is

640
00:51:53.639 --> 00:51:58.800
bold, because I need you know, you see some of these Dynasty updated

641
00:51:58.880 --> 00:52:02.480
ranks that I have not put out. But Abrams is probably more often than

642
00:52:02.480 --> 00:52:10.639
not a top fifty piece and easily
and yeah, I'd go I would ask

643
00:52:10.679 --> 00:52:15.920
for more, I think out of
that picture. Wow, yeah, yeah,

644
00:52:15.920 --> 00:52:19.760
I'm really trying. I'm looking at
him, going, Okay, who

645
00:52:20.639 --> 00:52:24.280
you know who could I either churn
or find somebody who can give me most

646
00:52:24.320 --> 00:52:28.519
of the stats that if this player
gives me, if I if I move

647
00:52:28.599 --> 00:52:30.199
them off my roster, Like,
can I can I find a couple of

648
00:52:30.199 --> 00:52:35.920
pictures who can do what Gil does? Or can I find a couple of

649
00:52:35.960 --> 00:52:42.599
hitters who can give me what Abrams
does? But I I might lean toward

650
00:52:42.880 --> 00:52:45.679
Abrams ceiling on that one. I
might Ah, gosh, this is when

651
00:52:45.760 --> 00:52:49.280
I just I don't, I don't, I don't disagree. I mean,

652
00:52:49.320 --> 00:52:53.079
I get it, I do get
it. When I'm moving an ace or

653
00:52:53.280 --> 00:52:59.639
an ace like picture, I'm looking
for a five category bat or should be

654
00:52:59.679 --> 00:53:06.079
looking for a five category back,
and I mean it's a fun trade.

655
00:53:06.239 --> 00:53:09.360
I won't I'm not. I don't
think it's lopsided by any means. I

656
00:53:09.519 --> 00:53:15.199
definitely what I could be kicking myself
in a few weeks. I would look

657
00:53:15.199 --> 00:53:17.000
into it more, but yeah,
top level, I think I would keep

658
00:53:17.119 --> 00:53:21.400
Kiel. Yeah that's what if that
offer came in and I'd be like,

659
00:53:21.559 --> 00:53:22.320
hey, I'm really busy at we're
Can I get back to you in the

660
00:53:22.440 --> 00:53:30.400
day and then text our friends and
see what they think? Chris, what

661
00:53:30.360 --> 00:53:36.039
would you do? So? Oh, all right, what did the masses?

662
00:53:36.079 --> 00:53:44.199
What did the masses say? The
masses were overwhelmingly Abrams. Yeah,

663
00:53:44.239 --> 00:53:50.880
who's the Who's who's the one percent? With me? Little Jerry in our

664
00:53:51.159 --> 00:53:57.000
little Jerry you got I got you, man, I feel you. And

665
00:53:57.079 --> 00:54:01.400
on the other side of people like
oh jan is squid, friend of the

666
00:54:01.440 --> 00:54:08.079
show, worka spurling Taylor, they
don't know nothing, Chris Knock, Did

667
00:54:08.079 --> 00:54:15.320
I choose Abrams? Yes? Oh
man, Ye I'm staying. I'm staying.

668
00:54:15.320 --> 00:54:20.559
I'm staying where I'm at. I
mean, there was a full week

669
00:54:20.599 --> 00:54:22.199
ago too, I mean, to
be fair, was six days ago has

670
00:54:22.239 --> 00:54:25.800
posted, so a lot could happen. Bro, What has happened since then?

671
00:54:25.920 --> 00:54:31.360
Is Gil has pitched well, uh, earlier this week against oh my

672
00:54:31.360 --> 00:54:34.199
gosh, no, I'm blank on
who it was. It was. It

673
00:54:34.280 --> 00:54:40.079
was decent. And then tonight I
was actually peaking earlier today and he had

674
00:54:40.079 --> 00:54:45.039
another strung audit against Boston. Who
was he pitching against earlier this week?

675
00:54:45.440 --> 00:54:50.960
Why am I blanking on? But
his outing against Boston looked better than it

676
00:54:51.000 --> 00:54:55.039
looked great? Uh, not knock
your house down by any means. But

677
00:54:55.320 --> 00:55:01.280
uh, what was his line to
night? Uh? Five innings six case?

678
00:55:02.239 --> 00:55:07.000
Looks like he probably walked a few
one point six whip. I'm just

679
00:55:07.039 --> 00:55:10.719
looking real quick. So yeah,
but I I'm you know, I'm gonna

680
00:55:10.719 --> 00:55:15.159
stick with the pitcher. Well,
there you go, Dodgers, that's we

681
00:55:15.280 --> 00:55:19.840
pitched against earlier this week. Yeah, so that that's a ringing endorsement.

682
00:55:21.360 --> 00:55:23.199
Well, I went in and went
in doubt. I think pitching is a

683
00:55:23.239 --> 00:55:28.400
little more valuable. So if it's
a total coin flip, I tend to

684
00:55:28.440 --> 00:55:31.719
go to the picture. But that, yeah, that one was so closer

685
00:55:31.719 --> 00:55:36.199
than I thought it was gonna be
a first glance. All right, Well,

686
00:55:36.320 --> 00:55:38.320
my friend, that brings us to
the end of another episode. Uh,

687
00:55:38.559 --> 00:55:42.119
good talk. Hopefully all the listeners
out there enjoyed it. Uh,

688
00:55:42.320 --> 00:55:44.800
any any fun? He just stumped
you with this one. But any final

689
00:55:44.840 --> 00:55:54.159
words? Uh, I'm glad to
not have to talk about pictures. Oh

690
00:55:54.199 --> 00:55:57.400
I guess I am too, But
although I will say it is it is

691
00:55:57.440 --> 00:56:01.400
fun kind of doing the research and
seeing who pops up. But yeah,

692
00:56:00.239 --> 00:56:06.559
they could be the headache in the
game we play. Well. Take care.

693
00:56:06.639 --> 00:56:09.119
I know you've got a busy weekend
and oh we're also recording writers.

694
00:56:09.119 --> 00:56:13.119
We're going into Father's Day weekend.
So to you and all the other fathers.

695
00:56:13.239 --> 00:56:15.599
Yeah, I hope you have or
if you're listening later in the week,

696
00:56:15.679 --> 00:56:20.480
have had a happy Father's Day.
And all the listeners out there,

697
00:56:20.519 --> 00:56:22.079
again, we know your time is
valuable. Thank you for spending some of

698
00:56:22.119 --> 00:56:27.320
it with us. Take care everybody, and hey, let's see what Taylor

699
00:56:27.360 --> 00:56:29.760
has to say. Everybody. Before
you go, I got to tell you

700
00:56:29.800 --> 00:56:32.599
about my buddy, Nathan, mister
Dynasty one stop, the one stop Shoper

701
00:56:32.639 --> 00:56:37.440
for all your Dynasty leagues. Are
you considering a new fantasy baseball league but

702
00:56:37.440 --> 00:56:40.320
don't know where to start? Nate's
got your back. Total draft degenerate that

703
00:56:40.400 --> 00:56:45.440
just wants to do some bestball leagues
do a d one s Nita Shoulder to

704
00:56:45.440 --> 00:56:47.320
cry on. You'd have to ask, But he's a nice dude. Maybe

705
00:56:47.320 --> 00:56:51.199
you could come to some sort of
arrangement. In any case, here's the

706
00:56:51.199 --> 00:56:53.360
deal, people, I'm the commissioner
of four leagues across the multiple sports and

707
00:56:53.400 --> 00:56:58.679
it's a crap ton of work.
I don't do it anymore. I get

708
00:56:58.719 --> 00:57:01.519
it, it's crazy, but Nate
has this down to a t. Every

709
00:57:01.599 --> 00:57:06.360
league I do with him is seamless, from creating the perfect league settings to

710
00:57:06.480 --> 00:57:12.239
gathering fees, to draft scheduling,
to recruiting managers and whatever else. Dude

711
00:57:12.239 --> 00:57:14.840
does it all for a small fee
