00:01:11,879 --> 00:01:15,840
in this league dot com, in this league dot com. Bogman,

26
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:20,200
I hate to say it, but tits were lit today. Ooh,

27
00:01:21,439 --> 00:01:24,959
we did not start the day off well. We started

28
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:28,920
off early on this Monday, July sixth with a Phillies

29
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,480
Royals game which looked like it was going to be

30
00:01:31,519 --> 00:01:34,640
pretty Chris Sanchez. Oh, we got two starts, Chris Sanchez

31
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:38,760
going up against Noah Cameron. One pitcher went five innings,

32
00:01:38,799 --> 00:01:42,000
struck out seven, gave up one in run. One pitcher

33
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:46,560
went three and one third twelve hits, nine earned runs,

34
00:01:46,599 --> 00:01:49,680
gave up all and it had only one strikeout. I

35
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:51,640
think I guess which one was the one that gave

36
00:01:51,719 --> 00:01:52,560
up nine on runs.

37
00:01:52,799 --> 00:01:56,239
Speaker 3: Yee. I can't believe Christopher Sanchez gave up that many runs.

38
00:01:56,319 --> 00:02:00,959
Speaker 2: Ooh, the cy young candidate after I the Betting Pro Show,

39
00:02:01,159 --> 00:02:03,959
make the case for blah blah, this and that's your fault.

40
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:10,919
Absolutely obliterated for niner and runs. Literally, no worst way

41
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:12,759
to start your week off in fantasy when you have him,

42
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,879
especially like weekly rodo. You're just like whelp, guess I'm done.

43
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,280
Guess I'm done with that one. Taking a look here too,

44
00:02:21,159 --> 00:02:23,240
this wasn't anything crazy. It did look like there was

45
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:28,039
a difficulty in touching the zone. There was a little

46
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,240
vlo decrease after the first inning with him, but he

47
00:02:31,439 --> 00:02:33,560
just it's got banged around Man.

48
00:02:33,479 --> 00:02:38,039
Speaker 3: Christy five against Washington two starts ago on the twenty fifth,

49
00:02:39,159 --> 00:02:42,520
he gave up four, which was the second most amount

50
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,319
of runs he'd given up all year on June fourteenth.

51
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,199
So June fourteenth, June twenty fifth or two of his

52
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,560
worst games. You didn't give up six all the way

53
00:02:52,599 --> 00:02:55,960
back in April. Every other game besides that has been

54
00:02:56,159 --> 00:02:58,400
two or fewer runs until this game.

55
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 2: And look at his change up and slider, So it

56
00:03:02,599 --> 00:03:06,680
actually looks like just as a aside from here, it

57
00:03:06,879 --> 00:03:11,400
looks like they were just sitting on his change up

58
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,639
and slider, which he wasn't hitting the zone. But look

59
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,240
at the average ex of lassuits against them, ninety four

60
00:03:18,319 --> 00:03:22,199
point seven against his changeup, which had seven hard hit

61
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:26,280
balls against, and ninety four point three on his slider.

62
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,919
His sinker was ninety point five. But he wasn't throwing

63
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,039
it in the zone, wasn't getting swings inside the zone,

64
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,960
and they really weren't chasing it. And these dudes were

65
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:39,400
just banging around the secondary stuff and the Royals just

66
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,919
obliterated him on that front. That is I mean telling

67
00:03:42,919 --> 00:03:46,479
you that's it literally starts a week off the worst possibility.

68
00:03:46,759 --> 00:03:50,560
You can't think I'm been miserable too, They've been not good.

69
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,240
Lane Thomas had a bomb and by the way, this

70
00:03:53,319 --> 00:03:55,280
wasn't even like Bobby Witt he had he was two

71
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:58,879
for four. Salvi had a bomb. Tyler Tolbert had a bomb.

72
00:03:59,759 --> 00:04:03,840
Looking of the people that started the game, every single

73
00:04:03,919 --> 00:04:07,439
person but Josh Rojas got a hit. No shocker there

74
00:04:07,479 --> 00:04:11,080
by the way, Josh Rojas. But yeah, three and one

75
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,520
third twelve hits nine in runs. So there you go.

76
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,800
Start your week off great. That's gonna be super awesome.

77
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 3: The last time that the Royals scored the last time

78
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:26,519
that the Royals scored more than five runs was June

79
00:04:26,639 --> 00:04:29,639
twenty first against the Cardinals and they lost twelve to ten.

80
00:04:29,959 --> 00:04:33,759
They scored the game run the five. Every other game

81
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,560
has been five or fewer in that stretch.

82
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 2: Six earned runs in the first inning yikes, Sanchez, yikes.

83
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,160
They've actually scored a run. As we're recording this, it's

84
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,639
the eighth, every single inning of the game, they've scored

85
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:47,040
a run.

86
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 3: So they have these Royal has been all, you know

87
00:04:49,639 --> 00:04:52,000
what it is, it's you gave up on the Royals, right,

88
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:52,800
and here they come.

89
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:54,399
Speaker 2: I was about to say this is the Royals that

90
00:04:54,439 --> 00:04:56,480
I was making those preseason bets, like, hey, they're going

91
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,759
to be a thing. No, this is that version of them,

92
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,160
but that I'll put a little bit of wrinkle in

93
00:05:01,199 --> 00:05:03,839
and that's gonna hurt some stuff. The big story over

94
00:05:03,879 --> 00:05:08,240
the weekend, though, it's it almost would have been better

95
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:09,879
if we could have just reacted in real time, because

96
00:05:09,879 --> 00:05:12,120
I feel bad because then it's like, I don't want

97
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:16,079
to sound hacky, because we've now had like everyugh of

98
00:05:16,199 --> 00:05:19,639
roughly twenty four hours of most everybody kind of being

99
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:20,519
disgusted by the.

100
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:21,519
Speaker 3: Uri Perez stuff.

101
00:05:22,079 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 2: But to be fair, like I saw it, Bogman texts

102
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,720
me and I had the game on, and what did

103
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,399
I respond when you said they're pulling him? Discuss one

104
00:05:31,439 --> 00:05:38,439
word disgusting, Absolutely disgusted by the Marlins taking Eurie Prez

105
00:05:38,519 --> 00:05:42,519
out and Joe Joe I mean credit to Joe, because

106
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,079
Joe knows sometimes it's you know, when to play heel

107
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,319
and stuff, so you know, big, big credit to him

108
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,720
for that. Joe played a little bit of the heel

109
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,560
on like, well, you know, you're competing and you want

110
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,600
to have uri and I get all of those things,

111
00:05:56,959 --> 00:06:01,839
but I just think, from top to bottom, it is

112
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,879
the most heinous thing out there. I do not get.

113
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,040
He was three games off of injury. He had gone

114
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,040
over one hundred on the year. It's not like it's

115
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,079
a no, I mean, a perfect game. There aren't.

116
00:06:13,079 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 3: It's just so rare you have to let him at

117
00:06:15,439 --> 00:06:16,839
least give up a hit.

118
00:06:17,319 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 2: Thirteen in the history of baseball, isn't that right? Does

119
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:20,680
that sound right?

120
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 3: I think it's twenty one. It's more than thirteen.

121
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 2: Okay, there's less than twenty five total in the history

122
00:06:26,079 --> 00:06:29,680
of the game. He's under one hundred pitches going into

123
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,240
the eighth and they pull him, and it's just the

124
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:36,079
same horrible excuse he stuff. I mean credits to twenty

125
00:06:36,199 --> 00:06:40,519
four coola that, like, you know, he just doesn't back

126
00:06:40,639 --> 00:06:42,800
down and he's just like, yeah, that was my decision,

127
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,879
blah blah blah. But it's just I don't care. I

128
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,160
think it's discussing anyone in the organization.

129
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 3: You gotta let him go, you gotta let.

130
00:06:49,439 --> 00:06:51,879
Speaker 2: Him have that. I don't care what's on the line.

131
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:53,959
I mean, I maybe I'm just selfish in that. But

132
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,480
in the same token, this isn't just an individual thing.

133
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,759
This is also a team based thing. Like the defense

134
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,120
worked towards us. The catcher called the game like I

135
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,360
just he stuck to his guns. He's like, just we

136
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,319
were gonna go ninety pitches and just to have the

137
00:07:08,319 --> 00:07:11,600
best yury for us. And it's like, no, I think

138
00:07:11,639 --> 00:07:14,199
it's great. I think it's the worst thing in the planet.

139
00:07:14,399 --> 00:07:16,839
Nothing can convince me otherwise. Not that, Like we got

140
00:07:16,959 --> 00:07:20,240
to have him for the season, and we go, dude, well, like, okay,

141
00:07:20,439 --> 00:07:23,879
if if he has twenty pitches in the eighth inn,

142
00:07:23,959 --> 00:07:26,680
and guess what, he probably lost the perfect game, you

143
00:07:26,759 --> 00:07:30,560
know what I'm saying. Like, in theory, he could probably

144
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,720
have gotten out of that in ten to fifteen pitches. Okay,

145
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:34,560
now you got a dilemma.

146
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 3: You're at there, and you can even yank him out

147
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:37,639
of a no hitter. I have no issue with that.

148
00:07:37,759 --> 00:07:39,800
He walks the first guy in the eighth go ahead.

149
00:07:39,879 --> 00:07:41,519
Speaker 2: No, you just take him out right there. You take

150
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,560
him out right there. Just don't even do it yet

151
00:07:43,639 --> 00:07:46,079
to your point, Okay, cool, we can do that. But dude,

152
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,360
if he goes ten to fifteen pitches, he's a little

153
00:07:48,399 --> 00:07:50,399
bit over one hundred, he's a little over his total,

154
00:07:50,439 --> 00:07:52,800
and he has one inning left to go for that perfect.

155
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,199
Speaker 3: Game, and you're up eight nothing. Just tell him, Hey, listen,

156
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,879
I'm gonna leave you in. You're gonna hurl ninety one

157
00:07:58,959 --> 00:08:00,519
down the middle, and if they hit it out, they

158
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,240
hit it out. You're not exhausting your arm. You're gonna

159
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:07,839
give them change ups or whatever. Just when they hit it,

160
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,480
we're done. If it goes out, it's eight to one,

161
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:14,720
no big deal. Who cares you're out. I just it's

162
00:08:14,839 --> 00:08:16,839
universitally it's universally bad.

163
00:08:16,879 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 2: It's not a no hitter, because that's what I said

164
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:19,879
to Joe's and like, it's not like this was like

165
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,879
a four walk no hitter and the pitch count had

166
00:08:22,879 --> 00:08:25,399
gotten up in the sixth inning. You're under one hundred

167
00:08:25,879 --> 00:08:29,639
in the seventh inning with a perfect game going on,

168
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:32,559
and on top of it, how asinine it looks that

169
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,399
they then bring in a bullpen that immediately walks, then

170
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,639
gives up a hit and then almost blows the game.

171
00:08:37,919 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, LB updates. It's like combine no hitter or combine

172
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,399
perfect game out the window after what Like, yeah, it

173
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,639
was gone as soon as ury was out. You know what.

174
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,799
Speaker 2: It's like, it's in my brain because the World Series

175
00:08:49,799 --> 00:08:52,799
of Poker is going on. It's like first hand getting

176
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,840
pocket aces someone shoving all in and just being like

177
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,840
a lot of tournament to go. It's like, no, brother,

178
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,320
you got the best hand. You got the best hand,

179
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,360
the best You can't start your hand any better. The

180
00:09:05,399 --> 00:09:07,480
odds are in your favor. If something doesn't work out,

181
00:09:07,519 --> 00:09:09,720
it doesn't work out, you have to go. And it's

182
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,120
like folding there, And I thought, I think he folded.

183
00:09:12,399 --> 00:09:13,159
Speaker 3: That was I thought it.

184
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 2: Was a horrible, horrible, disgusting decision. I hate all of it.

185
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,519
And if I were here, I would be pitt like

186
00:09:20,519 --> 00:09:22,080
how many times is the guy ever going to be

187
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,879
given that opportunity? So it's you know, it's almost like

188
00:09:24,919 --> 00:09:26,919
also the Saquon thing, like Saquon had a chance to

189
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:28,720
beat like the record, remember, and it was.

190
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 3: Like, yeah, but at least that was his decision, right.

191
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, And maybe you wanted to come out. I don't know.

192
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,039
Speaker 3: Well, it was it was interesting, you know. I I

193
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:40,320
went to the game yesterday in Houston watched the Astros

194
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,320
when two Zip over the race. Dude Angler had a

195
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,360
great start up from the miners, really good start for

196
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,799
Macey Angler for the race. Uh and and but they

197
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,480
ended up losing two Zip and we leave the game.

198
00:09:52,519 --> 00:09:55,159
We're in the parking lot and I was like, damn,

199
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,639
ur he's got a perfect game going. Let's uh so

200
00:09:57,759 --> 00:10:00,519
John turned it on the radio as going and you

201
00:10:00,519 --> 00:10:03,279
should have heard the radio people. They are like, Yuri

202
00:10:03,399 --> 00:10:06,279
is hugging people in the dugout in the middle of

203
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,759
a perfect game. It was like they were panicking. They're like,

204
00:10:08,799 --> 00:10:11,399
this has to be some types of gamesmanship. No way,

205
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,679
you're not pulling him here. They were utterly shocked. The

206
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:18,960
fans in the stands are yelling shame at the Marlins, like.

207
00:10:19,039 --> 00:10:22,519
Speaker 2: The A's fans were sham here. Yeah, well, I mean

208
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,159
you're you know what, You're at a ballpark. You have

209
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,600
a chance to see history, so you're taking it away

210
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,120
from everyone in the crowd as well, right, Like it's

211
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,720
it is really I think it's.

212
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 3: One of the poor decisions I've seen in a baseball and.

213
00:10:36,279 --> 00:10:37,919
Speaker 2: You know it's worse. Is like I so of saw

214
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,840
like Ken Rosenthal's out there being like I just understand

215
00:10:40,879 --> 00:10:42,759
why they did it, and it's like, brother, we all

216
00:10:42,799 --> 00:10:46,000
get the logistics of like, Okay, you want the guy

217
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,759
to be healthy, but do we really think you're gonna

218
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:49,759
get your reasoning?

219
00:10:50,039 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 3: Your reasoning sucks.

220
00:10:51,159 --> 00:10:54,039
Speaker 2: You're reasoning stupid. It is a the the amount of

221
00:10:54,039 --> 00:10:57,279
attention you could have on the lifetime achievement. He may

222
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,399
never come close to this again. For what because he

223
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,440
was at ninety two pitches and you were just really

224
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,919
comfortable him being at ninety Get out of your comfort zone.

225
00:11:05,159 --> 00:11:07,399
I think it is so stupid. There's nothing I could

226
00:11:07,399 --> 00:11:10,000
hear otherwise. It's it's insane to me that they pulled

227
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:14,000
a guy from a perfect game that wasn't even like

228
00:11:14,639 --> 00:11:15,799
we I guess we'd have a little bit of a

229
00:11:15,799 --> 00:11:17,960
different argument if he was like one hundred and fifteen

230
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,320
pitches and they were like, we were comfortable atty. He's

231
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:24,240
blown past ten pitches of uh, I think of his

232
00:11:24,399 --> 00:11:26,720
higher high and there's two innings in front of us

233
00:11:26,799 --> 00:11:29,080
or something like that. That's a different story. It was

234
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:33,440
ninety two pitches with two innings to go, like you're

235
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,279
saying he couldn't have a five or six pitch eighth

236
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:36,759
and then all of a sudden, you're under one hundred

237
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,759
going into the ninth with a perfect game going on.

238
00:11:39,919 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 3: It's like he set it in one hundred and fifteen

239
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,720
and say, hey, listen, you get to one fifteen, you're done. Sorry,

240
00:11:46,159 --> 00:11:49,559
out of that injury before whatever just got there, just go.

241
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,159
Speaker 2: To my stomach, goes sick to my stomach. No, no,

242
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:53,799
you weren't, dude, because if you were, you wouldn't have

243
00:11:53,799 --> 00:11:55,320
done it. You would have let this guy go and

244
00:11:55,399 --> 00:11:59,159
chase history in baseball, and that is crazy. But the

245
00:11:59,159 --> 00:12:03,879
big positive is I think there's like a general like

246
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,360
you could assume even if you take away like this,

247
00:12:06,519 --> 00:12:09,399
the totality of it being like a pseudo perfect game

248
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,960
like eury Perez, looks like some corners might be starting

249
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,879
to turn a little bit like. Since he's returned, he's

250
00:12:15,919 --> 00:12:18,679
had This is his third start since the injury return.

251
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:20,960
He has only given up a total of two earn

252
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,159
runs in those three starts. Two of the three starts

253
00:12:24,159 --> 00:12:26,879
he hasn't walked a batter. He did walk four in

254
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,840
the Colorado game, which wasn't like awesome, but he's progressively

255
00:12:29,879 --> 00:12:33,600
gone deeper in He's had eight or more strikeouts in

256
00:12:33,639 --> 00:12:35,720
two of the three, barely give up many earned runs

257
00:12:36,039 --> 00:12:38,600
because he isn't kind of a waffly season so far,

258
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,480
but his strikeout rate looks good. His walk rate has

259
00:12:41,519 --> 00:12:44,879
now decreased under ten percent. His expected is still a

260
00:12:44,879 --> 00:12:46,600
little bit up there because he's given up like a

261
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,080
lot of like you know, contact overall. But I think

262
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,759
this return to injury is starting to show, like the

263
00:12:52,799 --> 00:12:55,960
revamped version of Uri pres the Uri pres that we

264
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,360
thought we were going to get more of inconsistency and

265
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,159
guess what, he should be plenty healthy, So we're not

266
00:13:00,159 --> 00:13:04,000
gonna put any other excuses on him. But for his

267
00:13:04,039 --> 00:13:07,720
next start, I legitimately like that we had, you know,

268
00:13:07,799 --> 00:13:10,360
the breaking news taken away from us of the potential

269
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,799
perfect game going into the ninth, like anything coulda happened,

270
00:13:12,879 --> 00:13:15,600
what happened to Luke Backer or whatever could have happened

271
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,759
to Yuri, but that not given an opportunity is.

272
00:13:18,039 --> 00:13:21,879
Speaker 3: We're also Diamondbacks fans. We've watched Edwin Jackson throw way

273
00:13:21,919 --> 00:13:23,679
too many pitches and a no hitter and the rest

274
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,519
of his career was ruined by it. So like we've

275
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,360
seen it happen, we understand the logic behind.

276
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:30,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, seven walk, no hitter.

277
00:13:30,759 --> 00:13:33,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, it just ridiculous. He threw one hundred and forty

278
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:37,240
nine pitches in that no hitter, right, and I still

279
00:13:37,279 --> 00:13:41,279
wanted it because that's what you did back then. Right now,

280
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,759
we understand. Okay, if you get up over one twenty one,

281
00:13:43,799 --> 00:13:47,919
twenty five, that's ridiculous. Maybe yank him at that point,

282
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,080
like I said, set it one fifteen and say, hey, listen,

283
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,799
if you're in a perfect game one fifteen, any other game,

284
00:13:55,039 --> 00:13:58,600
one hundred pitches, that's your absolute max, that's it. We'll

285
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,720
give you one fifteen and a perfect And he was

286
00:14:00,759 --> 00:14:03,799
there and they yanked it. So it's just it's going

287
00:14:03,879 --> 00:14:08,399
to be regret for uh, for the manager's career, for

288
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,919
URI's career. It's just going to be a regret for

289
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,120
the rest of their lives because well, we're going to

290
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:14,440
know the what if. It's always going to be.

291
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,399
Speaker 2: But they're doing the like we're just moving past it,

292
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:18,720
like it was just what we had to do.

293
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, but they can say that, but it's you're never

294
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:22,559
going to move past it. It's going to be talked

295
00:14:22,559 --> 00:14:24,720
about for all of URI's career.

296
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,799
Speaker 2: I did say, though, if this was like Cam Schlittler

297
00:14:27,919 --> 00:14:31,039
and got pulled, this would be national coverage media, Like

298
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:34,080
every radio show would be starting with it. You know,

299
00:14:34,399 --> 00:14:37,039
the entire world would be dominated by you know, Aaron

300
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,120
Boone pulls Cam Schlittler under one hundred pitches for a

301
00:14:40,159 --> 00:14:42,559
perfect game, and everyone would be just up in arms

302
00:14:42,559 --> 00:14:46,120
about it because it's a stupid marlin. Nobody really cares,

303
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,519
but I think it's gross. One positive has come out

304
00:14:49,519 --> 00:14:52,240
of ABS, outside of just the greatest strike zone it

305
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,279
is the frauds have been caught, and the frauds leaving.

306
00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:01,200
Cebe Buckner is leaving baseball, as well as six others

307
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,480
who apparently I didn't know this. They were offered a

308
00:15:04,559 --> 00:15:08,200
buyout and they're like, he's retiring, but apparently there was

309
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,840
some buyout that was offered, probably because you're the worst

310
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:15,360
umpire in baseball and he's taking his little retirement buyout

311
00:15:15,399 --> 00:15:18,320
package or whatever, and he's shipping off and will not

312
00:15:18,399 --> 00:15:21,919
be missed, as well as a couple other umpires are

313
00:15:21,919 --> 00:15:24,399
going to be joining. What are you yelling at?

314
00:15:24,919 --> 00:15:26,919
Speaker 3: Yelling at my cat? He will not be quiet.

315
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 2: Sorry, you would think you had children, by the way.

316
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,039
Sometimes with the way I look, I see you turn

317
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,039
around and you're like screaming, and I'm like, oh, what

318
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,080
kid caused something? It's like, oh, it's the cat, it's

319
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:35,639
the fur kid.

320
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, you won't quit yelling, that's uh. You know, he's

321
00:15:39,519 --> 00:15:42,879
super upset about ury Perez being pulled. He is so

322
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,480
mad about ury Perez getting ink. But he was like,

323
00:15:46,679 --> 00:15:50,200
you know what you tell them Cebe Buckner, last d As,

324
00:15:50,639 --> 00:15:53,679
brian O Noor all gone. We want them all gone. So,

325
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,200
you know, it's funny. All my way out to the

326
00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,639
game yesterday, I was looking up It's like, how bad

327
00:15:59,759 --> 00:16:03,360
is this year? Dead Last worst Umpire? I think there's

328
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:05,440
probably one graded and he's forty one.

329
00:16:05,799 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 2: I think I saw somebody say he's actually only called

330
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,639
a handful of games this year and even and he's

331
00:16:12,639 --> 00:16:14,960
still the worst of all. He is the absolute worst,

332
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:16,120
So get the hell out of here.

333
00:16:16,639 --> 00:16:20,159
Speaker 3: And he was behind the plate in the Astros game yesterday.

334
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,320
But good lord, there were a lot of challenges I've seen.

335
00:16:23,799 --> 00:16:26,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, good I mean, the only thing that you're hoping

336
00:16:26,679 --> 00:16:29,600
and praying for is that the ABS system is going

337
00:16:29,639 --> 00:16:33,159
to create a better batch of umpires, umpires that can

338
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,919
get outside of themselves and work through it because you're exposed.

339
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:41,879
And you know, it's like any job baseball players do,

340
00:16:42,039 --> 00:16:44,360
the studying figure out where they're off. You would hope

341
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,399
umpires are doing the same things to try to figure

342
00:16:47,399 --> 00:16:49,960
out how they can be better. And I'm really sure

343
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,480
the old school umpires really took that to heart and

344
00:16:52,519 --> 00:16:54,799
wanted Nope, they're retiring and they're gone.

345
00:16:54,879 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 3: So to ask you one question before I move on,

346
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,240
did you like my signature on the katarna?

347
00:17:00,679 --> 00:17:03,879
Speaker 2: So it did look pretty good, so I was this

348
00:17:03,919 --> 00:17:07,279
is hilarious. So Bogs and John went out and John

349
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,680
took to heart something you said a while back that

350
00:17:10,759 --> 00:17:12,400
you said because you had never signed it, no one

351
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:14,839
had ever asked for an autograph like that. And then

352
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:18,680
you're like, I hope it's a katana. And apparently John

353
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:23,079
had a katana and he had you autograph it at

354
00:17:23,079 --> 00:17:26,000
his house, so you there's a kanda out there that.

355
00:17:26,079 --> 00:17:27,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, He's like you should have wrote one of one

356
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:29,759
on it. I'm like, damn, I should have he.

357
00:17:30,079 --> 00:17:31,400
Speaker 2: Buy the katana four.

358
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:34,319
Speaker 3: No, he just had it.

359
00:17:34,759 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 2: John's the total ultimate dudes, dude. He's just like he

360
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:42,160
just owns a katana because he can. If I was

361
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:45,319
like a single dude with money like John, like, I

362
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:49,559
would also buy katanas and I would buy whatever I want.

363
00:17:49,599 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 3: Is I think this was a spare katana obviously, so

364
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,960
it's got my greasy signature on it. It's pretty good.

365
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,200
It was pretty good. Thank you.

366
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:00,759
Speaker 2: Well, if I ever go out there and he wants,

367
00:18:00,799 --> 00:18:04,039
I'll signed the other end of yah. Yeah, yeah katana.

368
00:18:04,279 --> 00:18:06,599
So because I go out to Texas a lot. But yeah,

369
00:18:06,599 --> 00:18:08,759
I thought that was really good. He looked great, by

370
00:18:08,799 --> 00:18:13,400
the way. In the leading off anime, he looks on.

371
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 3: A strict diet man, so he's like he's lost all

372
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,440
the weight, he's all cut up and everything. But he

373
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,160
ate like a horse at the game because he's been

374
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,960
starving himself. So I'm like halfway done my nachos. I'm

375
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,480
like I'm done. He's like, yeah, I'll kill that. Thank you,

376
00:18:29,519 --> 00:18:33,279
please appreciate that. So yeah, he's uh. We had a

377
00:18:33,279 --> 00:18:35,119
great time. It was a good time. To nothing game

378
00:18:35,279 --> 00:18:37,599
kind of felt like a library for a part of

379
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,960
the game, but it was good. The night before would

380
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:42,720
have been better. But it alsoort of costs way more

381
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,960
money because we got free tickets four Sunday game. Yeah,

382
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:47,359
but did you see the fourth of July? That was

383
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,720
Jordan walk off in the bottom of the night.

384
00:18:51,279 --> 00:18:54,920
Speaker 2: Good game, Yeah, pretty pretty good. All Star Game rosters

385
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,200
are out any comments any care? I don't care because

386
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:02,279
they're stupid and run and Mike Trout's hurt and I

387
00:19:02,319 --> 00:19:05,599
don't know, cal like not make it. But then someone

388
00:19:05,599 --> 00:19:07,680
a bowed out and he got in or I don't know.

389
00:19:07,759 --> 00:19:09,039
Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know if that happened.

390
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 2: I know him and Edwardo were in for the diamond.

391
00:19:12,079 --> 00:19:15,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, I kind of figure do they are they still

392
00:19:15,279 --> 00:19:17,880
doing the extra vote job or whatever that is. I

393
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,359
haven't seen anything for it, so maybe over I think

394
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,640
it was like I thought maybe kateel would make it

395
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,160
and he didn't. But yeah, I mean it was funny

396
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,759
that vladd made it and then people were very very

397
00:19:28,759 --> 00:19:30,279
mad about it, and then Vlad was like, yeah, I'm

398
00:19:30,279 --> 00:19:35,319
not playing, yeah, shut up, but you did have though,

399
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,960
what is it for red?

400
00:19:39,079 --> 00:19:42,160
Speaker 2: Does that make sense? Let me look here? Oh did

401
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,079
digit weather Hold not make it? So I guess only

402
00:19:44,079 --> 00:19:46,559
two two rookies make it in the al Kevin McGonagall

403
00:19:46,599 --> 00:19:51,240
made it and Travis Bizana as reserves. That's nuts, that's

404
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,200
absolutely crazy. And then yeah, I just don't have to

405
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,400
make it. No, Connor Griffin was hurt, so.

406
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:59,559
Speaker 3: Now he has twenty stolen bases. He's the first Pirate

407
00:20:00,079 --> 00:20:03,640
since nineteen oh one to steal twenty bases in their

408
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:05,319
rookie season with the Pirates.

409
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 2: I was saying to Joe today, I was like, it's

410
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,680
just another one of those cases of like, twenty stolen

411
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:12,599
bases just snuck up on me. At Connor Griffin. I

412
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,079
was like, what, like, he's only a five homers, but

413
00:20:15,079 --> 00:20:16,160
twenty stolen basement.

414
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:17,279
Speaker 3: Tony, it was stealing home.

415
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,079
Speaker 2: He'd been hurt. A whole bunch the infielders in the NL,

416
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:25,240
Luisa Rise, Bryce Harper, Auto Lopez, Matt Olson, and Sal Stewart.

417
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,200
So I guess Sal Stewart's another rookie. The look at

418
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:30,720
the reserve outfielders though, for the NL corm and Carroll,

419
00:20:30,759 --> 00:20:35,559
Pete Crow, Arms, Jordan Walker, and James Wood because Brandon,

420
00:20:35,599 --> 00:20:39,119
Marsh and Dude by the ways, good well, no, look

421
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:43,200
at the starters, Marsh, Soto and PAHs. I'll take Pete Crow,

422
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,039
James Wood and either Carol or Walker over those guys.

423
00:20:46,039 --> 00:20:49,319
So I don't even think the starters made sense. But yeah,

424
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,359
I mean it's it's it's fine, you know it's gonna

425
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,160
I mean, the NL is absolutely stacked, and maybe there

426
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,599
wasn't anything like egregious I guess that I would be

427
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,640
all pissy about or whatever. But you know, Mike Trout

428
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:02,759
is on the starting lineup, but like, who would have

429
00:21:02,759 --> 00:21:07,559
been better? Cody Bellinger? They really didn't have great options

430
00:21:07,599 --> 00:21:10,079
for any of that. But I'm just waiting for the

431
00:21:10,079 --> 00:21:11,720
home run Derby. That's what I'll care about.

432
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,160
Speaker 3: Them, and Arrow is the only one that has signed

433
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:13,759
up so far.

434
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 2: It's just great. I think Hunter Goodman is going to

435
00:21:15,759 --> 00:21:18,559
play in it. There was video of him like having

436
00:21:18,599 --> 00:21:21,039
his dad throw him BP and it was like in

437
00:21:21,079 --> 00:21:23,279
a home run setting. I just don't think they've announced it,

438
00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:26,240
so stupid Hunter Goodman. I'll probably do it, and then

439
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:28,000
I don't know, like.

440
00:21:28,039 --> 00:21:30,880
Speaker 3: What else is this? Be? Schwarber will because it's in Philly, so.

441
00:21:31,559 --> 00:21:33,599
Speaker 2: Schwa Okay, that would be a really good one. Any

442
00:21:33,599 --> 00:21:38,160
other guestimations on guys. I'm looking at guys that made it.

443
00:21:39,079 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 3: How many how many guys have already said they're definitely

444
00:21:42,039 --> 00:21:42,720
not doing it.

445
00:21:43,039 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 2: I don't know I don't. I don't know if Bobby

446
00:21:45,519 --> 00:21:47,720
has said anything about it. I mean, Judge is hurt.

447
00:21:47,799 --> 00:21:48,920
Buckson's been hurt.

448
00:21:49,319 --> 00:21:53,599
Speaker 3: Swarber said, up, he's healthy. He will he will participate

449
00:21:53,599 --> 00:21:55,200
it and select it as an All Star. He was

450
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,039
an All Star, right, Schwart Yeah, so yeah, he'll go.

451
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:04,000
Let's see, said he plans participating from the home fans,

452
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:07,559
provided he can secure his ideal batting practice. Pitcher Nick

453
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,960
Kurtz said he grew up in Philly. He's a prime

454
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,680
candidate to add. And like you said, Hunter Goodman, that's

455
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:15,039
what the Okay.

456
00:22:14,759 --> 00:22:20,440
Speaker 2: So Kurt's Cameron Aro Goodman, Harper Schwarber, that's what we're

457
00:22:20,519 --> 00:22:21,519
kind of sitting on right now.

458
00:22:21,599 --> 00:22:23,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess the guys that have officially said they

459
00:22:23,759 --> 00:22:27,319
are not doing it are Shay Lengliers, PCA, Jordon that's.

460
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 2: It, Pa. Yeah, we asked you, Bud. He's not gonna

461
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:36,240
do it, guys, so everybody'd be careful.

462
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,920
Speaker 3: I mean, I watched Chris Young in a home run

463
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,279
derby before, so they've had worse participants.

464
00:22:41,519 --> 00:22:44,200
Speaker 2: I like Chris Young, but there's been some bad home

465
00:22:44,279 --> 00:22:45,039
run derby stuff.

466
00:22:45,079 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 3: So yeah, but Chris Young, somebody slept it was it

467
00:22:49,039 --> 00:22:52,160
was a home run derby in twenty ten in La

468
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,839
at Angels Stadium. I think it was somebody slept on

469
00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:00,599
their shoulder wrong. I was supposed to participate paid, and

470
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:04,119
then it wasn't the sneeze. I remember Sammy Sosa had

471
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,799
the sneeze and didn't participate in the home run derby.

472
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,839
But it was someone slept on their shoulder wrong. And

473
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,440
then the day of the home run derby, I saw

474
00:23:12,519 --> 00:23:15,359
Chris Young was participating, Like as we're driving towards the state.

475
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:16,400
Speaker 2: Not the listener, Chris Young.

476
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,759
Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, not the player that's out there.

477
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,599
Speaker 2: In the next episode, we're gonna put together our fantasy

478
00:23:22,599 --> 00:23:26,319
All Star team. I might take a little bit angle

479
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,480
because we're gonna do something similar in leading off this week,

480
00:23:28,559 --> 00:23:31,839
so it might try to like, you know, change it up,

481
00:23:31,839 --> 00:23:33,519
because I think in that one we're gonna.

482
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,680
Speaker 3: The anti All Star team. Don't oka think we could

483
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,359
do Yeah, we could do like the.

484
00:23:39,079 --> 00:23:41,119
Speaker 2: The All Garbage and then we could do the All

485
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:43,359
Good and we'll do something like that, like because I

486
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,880
almost think there's like an All Value All Star team,

487
00:23:46,559 --> 00:23:49,079
and then we'll do a little bit different on leading.

488
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 3: The MC value All Star Team.

489
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,519
Speaker 2: The MG values exactly. We'll do the MC values on

490
00:23:53,559 --> 00:23:55,519
that for sure. But that's what we'll do in the

491
00:23:55,519 --> 00:23:57,359
next episode. All right, some news around baseball, and then

492
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,920
we're gonna be taking a look at the top leaders

493
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,000
over the last seven days and get some names to

494
00:24:02,039 --> 00:24:04,359
talk about. You mentioned vlad had said he is not

495
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,119
going to participate in the All Star Game. Probably good.

496
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,160
Maybe he does need to change his swing. Maybe you

497
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,960
could just adjust your swing doing that, but whatever. Bar

498
00:24:12,079 --> 00:24:15,160
Buckston aggravated his hip injury on Sunday and he left early.

499
00:24:16,079 --> 00:24:20,200
Not great. I think they did say it was more precautionary.

500
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,200
So maybe he is light this week, and I think

501
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,319
he wants to probably play the All Star Game and

502
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:25,680
all that.

503
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,640
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, I would think so maybe he gets a

504
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:30,559
couple more days off and then participates.

505
00:24:30,759 --> 00:24:33,319
Speaker 2: Not sure, so a couple of daisies because he is

506
00:24:33,559 --> 00:24:35,759
He's a starter, starting a center fielder out there, so

507
00:24:35,799 --> 00:24:37,240
that's pretty pretty sweet.

508
00:24:37,279 --> 00:24:39,319
Speaker 3: So I mentioned old Man a little old.

509
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:43,319
Speaker 2: Speaking of old Man here, Brandon Woodruff back to the il.

510
00:24:43,559 --> 00:24:47,480
Unfortunately Joe was dancing on the grave. He had shoulder inflammation.

511
00:24:48,039 --> 00:24:52,559
I really do think, really really think this has got

512
00:24:52,599 --> 00:24:54,480
to be like if the Brewer.

513
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:55,680
Speaker 3: The Brewers have.

514
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:59,079
Speaker 2: Us window where they have got young locked in talent.

515
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:03,359
They've got talent robust in the minor leagues. They're winning young.

516
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:05,960
It's everything, I guess is a better way to put it.

517
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,000
You got to put your chips in. This is an

518
00:25:08,039 --> 00:25:11,160
opportunity to be able to take this division. You've got

519
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,119
it and you've got the pieces to make it happen.

520
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,400
That would not deplete your team. It's not like it's

521
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,000
a bunch of old guys. I really think they need

522
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,920
to be aggressive and losing Woodruff and knowing even if

523
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:22,799
he's gonna come back in a little bit, he's on

524
00:25:23,599 --> 00:25:25,960
you know, dicey grounds here, they should be aggressive in

525
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:27,599
the market and as stupid as it is I said

526
00:25:27,599 --> 00:25:30,119
on leaning off Bogs, I think they should go and

527
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,359
try to get Freddy Pearl to back right like they

528
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,480
don't want like they loved Freddy there. The Mets clearly

529
00:25:35,559 --> 00:25:37,599
don't want him. But I do think they should go

530
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,720
and they should get some bullpen help, and they should

531
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:41,319
I just think they should go all in. There's a

532
00:25:41,319 --> 00:25:43,400
couple of teams that, like you know, the Dodgers and

533
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,720
Yankees can do stuff. It will. I think the team

534
00:25:45,759 --> 00:25:47,640
like the Brewers should be the one that comes.

535
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:48,799
Speaker 3: Out the gates first.

536
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,559
Speaker 2: They go get Sonny Gray. I don't know if you

537
00:25:51,559 --> 00:25:54,440
can get Sandy, you know, call up the Twins and

538
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:56,480
try to pull off a blockbuster for Joe Ran, Like

539
00:25:56,559 --> 00:25:58,599
they should be the ones and they have. They do

540
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:02,119
have a clear hole starter back in a closer right

541
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,680
like starter at the top because now Logan Henderson or

542
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,400
actually Shane Droan is your number five with no depth

543
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,880
when Logan Henderson is up, so you've got to have

544
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:14,440
another starter, and I'm torn.

545
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:16,200
Speaker 3: I would say bullpen first.

546
00:26:16,279 --> 00:26:18,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, so then you're with me because I kind

547
00:26:18,039 --> 00:26:21,240
of think like if you could go get like a closer, closer,

548
00:26:21,519 --> 00:26:24,759
then you set yourself up where Euribay and McGill can

549
00:26:24,839 --> 00:26:27,319
kind of be more like rotation, you know, you can

550
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:30,720
probably need to be yeah, rotationally like nice dudes. So

551
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,240
maybe they could go and get like, you know, Luke

552
00:26:34,279 --> 00:26:36,680
Weaver and Freddie Peralta in a big trade or do

553
00:26:36,799 --> 00:26:39,400
multiple But I really really like, of all the teams,

554
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,640
I think this is the team that should go balls

555
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:43,000
to the wall and make it happen.

556
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,440
Speaker 3: I think it was on Peacock, but you know, the

557
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:48,200
the Brewers are playing the d Backs this week, and

558
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,839
uh love what I was watching and somebody said, well,

559
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:55,519
we found out earlier this year that uh Abner Uruba

560
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,519
is a big Sean Michaels fan, so which I thought

561
00:26:58,559 --> 00:26:59,240
was pretty funny.

562
00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,839
Speaker 2: Oh, because well you should have said triple h DX down.

563
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I mean he was in the right ballpark,

564
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:05,000
so yeah.

565
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:08,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, a bit of a reference.

566
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:09,400
But you guys still got it.

567
00:27:10,599 --> 00:27:12,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that would be the place, so be

568
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:12,960
on the lookout for that.

569
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,440
Speaker 2: I saw an article written this morning too, I want

570
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,119
to say it was Athletic or something that was like,

571
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:19,519
you know, this is one of those windows, and it's

572
00:27:19,519 --> 00:27:21,599
like it is it truly is a window right now.

573
00:27:21,599 --> 00:27:24,519
And it's like you've got Yelich still for another year

574
00:27:24,599 --> 00:27:26,759
or two, but you've got churioh. You know, you've got

575
00:27:26,759 --> 00:27:29,359
some pieces that are flying. Bryce Terrang has been awesome.

576
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,920
Go out and make some moves, like your system is

577
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:34,759
one of the best in the minor leagues. You've got

578
00:27:34,799 --> 00:27:37,480
another draft that's coming up, like you can make real

579
00:27:37,519 --> 00:27:41,839
stuff happen. So I hope to see it. And I

580
00:27:41,839 --> 00:27:44,359
think the Brandon Wood draft injury should be another like

581
00:27:44,559 --> 00:27:48,119
wake up piece. Why they should big wake up moment,

582
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,720
especially if you were like, oh, you know, wonder Green,

583
00:27:50,759 --> 00:27:54,039
he's back, We'll just do it. He got obliterated three

584
00:27:54,039 --> 00:27:56,640
and one third, gave up eight earned runs, walk four

585
00:27:56,640 --> 00:28:00,599
and seven strikeouts in his return. You know, I saw

586
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,640
him in the in complex before he started making the

587
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,160
moves and stuff, and the fastball looked good, like things

588
00:28:06,319 --> 00:28:10,160
looked good. This was not good at all.

589
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 3: I mean, he had struck out four over six and

590
00:28:14,039 --> 00:28:18,119
a third six and four innings, and he didn't give

591
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,680
up a run in any of his three rehab starts.

592
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,960
So to see him not give up any runs, I'm

593
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:27,799
even okay if you were, how were the people that

594
00:28:27,839 --> 00:28:34,400
threw him right back in the lineup? So I don't

595
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:38,559
even blame those people because he had looked good in

596
00:28:38,599 --> 00:28:41,480
his rehab starts. He looked real good rehab he was.

597
00:28:41,599 --> 00:28:43,440
He absolutely got destroyed.

598
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 2: He didn't, Now this would be maybe one of the things.

599
00:28:48,279 --> 00:28:51,079
He really didn't throw a split finger. He didn't seem

600
00:28:51,119 --> 00:28:54,400
to be comfortable with it. Why that's important. Last year

601
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,720
he threw that almost eleven percent of the time. He

602
00:28:57,799 --> 00:29:02,039
threw only two split fingers in this game. Now his Velo.

603
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,559
His fastball Villa was down slightly not I don't think

604
00:29:04,599 --> 00:29:07,000
it's anything crazy ninety eight nine from ninety nine to five.

605
00:29:07,359 --> 00:29:10,359
His slider, you know, was about the same in Vello.

606
00:29:10,599 --> 00:29:13,720
It did have a decrease in spin, so he wasn't

607
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:15,519
spinning it quite as much and he wasn't throwing his

608
00:29:15,519 --> 00:29:18,440
split finger. So this does kind of reek of like

609
00:29:18,519 --> 00:29:21,759
he's just not comfortable and doesn't have the stuff. The

610
00:29:21,759 --> 00:29:24,880
only thing I'm concerned about is like why, you know,

611
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,079
like he only threw a split finger to lefties? Did

612
00:29:27,119 --> 00:29:30,960
he not have a very lefty lineup that he could attack? Like,

613
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,599
like why did the pitch mix? Why was it this way?

614
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:36,359
Was it just a he's not comfortable quite yet, Because

615
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,319
if you believe that's the case, that's the type of

616
00:29:39,319 --> 00:29:41,559
thing where I go. I try to go pull off

617
00:29:41,599 --> 00:29:43,920
a trade right now. He was injured, he came back,

618
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,720
he got freaking obliterated. Someone's like, Jesus Christ, what did

619
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:49,839
I get into? And then you go and take advantage

620
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:52,119
of it? But I don't know what the answer. I

621
00:29:52,119 --> 00:29:54,880
do lean on potentially trying to buy him.

622
00:29:55,119 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 3: I think I'd rather buy this is his first start

623
00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,920
off of rehab. I think he's gonna be okay.

624
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 2: But he didn't have the split finger whatsoever. Because looking

625
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,839
at the plot chart, one of the things you look

626
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:09,160
for is like the you want the split finger to

627
00:30:09,319 --> 00:30:11,319
like kind of dive off of the fastball, like on

628
00:30:11,359 --> 00:30:15,119
the shape and what like. He threw one that was

629
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:17,839
and one that was way off. This just reads to

630
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,200
me he didn't feel he had the split finger, so

631
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,160
he didn't go to it, and this led to some

632
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:24,519
just not great stuff.

633
00:30:24,799 --> 00:30:27,319
Speaker 3: Maybe before you buy weight another start to see if

634
00:30:27,519 --> 00:30:29,319
that you know. Yeah, but then I think it's a

635
00:30:29,319 --> 00:30:29,839
way down.

636
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:31,480
Speaker 2: I think that's when it dies.

637
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 3: Okay, so then figure it out. Then are we buying

638
00:30:35,759 --> 00:30:36,640
or are we not buying it?

639
00:30:36,759 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 2: No, I'm talking about it. I'm saying I think I'm

640
00:30:40,559 --> 00:30:42,880
going to just buy it. I mean, I think I'm

641
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:46,000
going to. But but you know, just is a point here.

642
00:30:46,039 --> 00:30:47,920
He didn't really throw it. I think this might have

643
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,319
been a feel thing, but there was some spin issues.

644
00:30:50,599 --> 00:30:52,599
His arm angles a little different right now too. It's

645
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,200
the highest it's ever been, so maybe he's going to

646
00:30:55,279 --> 00:30:57,119
have to lower that. I think some things will work

647
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:58,880
on I'll buy on it. But he did get them.

648
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:03,119
Things jiggled. Oh, yo, who these placed on the aisle

649
00:31:03,119 --> 00:31:07,359
with a concussion. Of course that was on Friday. Yep,

650
00:31:07,519 --> 00:31:10,039
gotta get out of proto Ryan Helsley to the isle

651
00:31:10,039 --> 00:31:16,079
with elbow discomfort. That's bad news, I believe, isn't that?

652
00:31:16,799 --> 00:31:18,400
Is that gonna be Canoe? Or is that going to

653
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:22,160
be Garcia? Because didn't Garcia have the little rum? If

654
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:23,599
I want to see who they're listing right now on

655
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:29,240
roster resource, they are listing Tyler Wells. I thought it

656
00:31:29,279 --> 00:31:32,759
was Rico Garcia was getting them last time. But Tyler

657
00:31:32,759 --> 00:31:35,319
Wells is listed as your current closer.

658
00:31:35,759 --> 00:31:39,599
Speaker 3: With Rico has four saves and because he had a

659
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:43,680
little two yeah, one, yeah?

660
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 2: What was the Now I want to look at the

661
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:49,039
game log of this. When did Tyler Wells get his

662
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:50,160
last save?

663
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 3: Where?

664
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,559
Speaker 2: Okay, here we go. Uh, he had the last two saves,

665
00:31:54,799 --> 00:31:56,839
so that's it. He had the third and the fourth

666
00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,119
he got the save, so they they must have thrust

667
00:31:59,200 --> 00:31:59,920
him into that role.

668
00:32:00,519 --> 00:32:03,279
Speaker 3: June second was Rico Garcia's last save.

669
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,359
Speaker 2: All right, So Tyler Wells looks like he's your pickup,

670
00:32:06,839 --> 00:32:09,200
so he's getting the save opportunities. He already locked down

671
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:13,480
two and probably for the foreseeable future. Carlos Aredn placed

672
00:32:13,519 --> 00:32:14,960
on the aisle with elbow inflammation.

673
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:20,079
Speaker 3: Rinse, repeat, just move on.

674
00:32:20,759 --> 00:32:24,160
Speaker 2: And the Atlanta Braves they signed Andrew McCutchen to an

675
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:28,799
MiLB deal, so he has not quite ended his watch yet.

676
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:32,440
He'll probably get some opportunity with the Braves. I don't know, man,

677
00:32:32,559 --> 00:32:35,279
Remember that first week he came out like blazing with

678
00:32:35,319 --> 00:32:37,920
the Rangers and stuff, and I saw him during I'm

679
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:39,400
just rooting for the guy because I love the guy,

680
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,960
rooting for him when in Rangers camp and stuff. And

681
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:43,799
he came out the first week and hit some bombs

682
00:32:43,839 --> 00:32:45,359
and then he just literally fell apart.

683
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:47,480
Speaker 3: I think, don't you feel like Andreon McCutchen is going

684
00:32:47,519 --> 00:32:52,279
to be around baseball beyond when we're alive? Like, I

685
00:32:52,279 --> 00:32:54,920
think this dude will be in baseball for a long

686
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:58,400
long time. He probably a future manager something like that.

687
00:32:58,519 --> 00:33:00,279
Speaker 2: I mean just I think he'd be a great like

688
00:33:00,359 --> 00:33:02,319
media personality, like I love to see like have a

689
00:33:02,319 --> 00:33:04,799
podcast like you know MOOKI is doing, you know, or

690
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:06,400
like you have a lot of the NBA guys are

691
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,799
doing these post ones like get him in that type

692
00:33:08,839 --> 00:33:10,839
of space. I think it would be good. But I

693
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:14,720
think anything whether it's he's coaching or he's doing that.

694
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:17,359
Like I hope he stays in baseball. The problem is

695
00:33:17,359 --> 00:33:19,599
that we're talking about him doing everything but playing the game.

696
00:33:19,799 --> 00:33:21,279
So I think that's gonna kind of he's going to

697
00:33:21,359 --> 00:33:23,240
be one of those like, what is it that account

698
00:33:23,279 --> 00:33:25,359
the Hall of Good. He's going to be the like

699
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,279
but he doesn't qualify because he won an MVP, So

700
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:31,440
he's the Hall of like really good, hall of almost hall.

701
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 3: Can I tell you I don't like the saying hall

702
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,279
of pretty good because it's also not the Hall of

703
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,119
only good of only great stats. It's a Hall of fame.

704
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:42,319
Speaker 2: So you don't like the Twitter account?

705
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,400
Speaker 3: No, no, the Twitter account is fine. It's the name.

706
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,160
It's the Hall of Fame. It should be called the

707
00:33:48,319 --> 00:33:50,799
Hall good Enough or something, you know.

708
00:33:50,839 --> 00:33:53,039
Speaker 2: Oh you don't, Well that's I mean, that's their Twitter account.

709
00:33:53,079 --> 00:33:54,359
They're the Hall of pretty Good.

710
00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,279
Speaker 3: And yeah yeah, yeah, no, no no, but the Hall of

711
00:33:56,279 --> 00:33:58,960
pretty Good has been his saying since I've been alive,

712
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,559
you know, like the guys that are almost in the

713
00:34:01,599 --> 00:34:04,240
Hall of Fame but not have always been the Hall

714
00:34:04,279 --> 00:34:06,839
of pretty Good. And I know that's the Twitter account now,

715
00:34:06,839 --> 00:34:08,440
but that name has been around for minute.

716
00:34:08,679 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 2: I didn't know that was the thing for you that

717
00:34:10,039 --> 00:34:10,440
worked out.

718
00:34:10,599 --> 00:34:12,360
Speaker 3: Well, it's not really a thing, but it's just one

719
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:15,599
of those small annoyances. I old man A clouds.

720
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 2: You know, I'm gonna do one where it's like, yeah,

721
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:19,079
that doesn't work me up at all, but I can

722
00:34:19,079 --> 00:34:21,599
appreciate that. I want to do like a Hall of Mambre.

723
00:34:22,119 --> 00:34:25,199
And you just came to a mind. Remember Connor Jackson.

724
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:29,960
Speaker 3: Remember Connor Jackson. Remember how Valley Fever ruined Connor Jackson's career.

725
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,920
Weird dude, Valley Fever man did he ever? That's like

726
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:39,920
a nineteen eighteen disease. That's not like a two thousand's diseased.

727
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,679
Speaker 2: Connor Jackson, Because didn't he go and play for someone

728
00:34:42,679 --> 00:34:46,280
else like them? I think he played or something Oakland,

729
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,480
That's what it was. No, so he played same like

730
00:34:49,559 --> 00:34:51,920
be shocked at this by the way. He played with

731
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,639
the Diamondbacks for one, two, three.

732
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:57,400
Speaker 3: For six years. Yeah, no, he was around for a while,

733
00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,079
but he was like up and down and up and down,

734
00:34:59,119 --> 00:34:59,599
I felt like.

735
00:35:00,039 --> 00:35:02,159
Speaker 2: And then he went to Oakland for two and then

736
00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:05,480
his career ended in twenty eleven with the Boston Red Sox.

737
00:35:05,519 --> 00:35:11,159
It looks like where his best season. This is a

738
00:35:11,199 --> 00:35:13,920
true just remember because he didn't ever do anything good.

739
00:35:14,159 --> 00:35:17,079
His best season was two thousand and eight, where he

740
00:35:17,199 --> 00:35:20,760
had a two point eight war, he had twelve homers,

741
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:25,199
ten stolen bases, seventy five RBI, eighty seven runs, and

742
00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:28,320
he hit three hundred and that was in five hundred

743
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,039
and forty eight bats, so like it was very actually

744
00:35:31,119 --> 00:35:34,840
Chad Tracy like, but hitting three hundred having significant runs in.

745
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:38,639
Speaker 3: RBI three seventy six too. Yeah, that was a.

746
00:35:38,599 --> 00:35:41,159
Speaker 2: Really good season, and the three seasons prior to that

747
00:35:41,639 --> 00:35:45,280
had been kind of similar, and then everything fell apart.

748
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,039
When was his valley fever though.

749
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:49,800
Speaker 3: Two thousand and eight and two thousand and nine, because

750
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,119
he missed a ton of games I think in two

751
00:35:52,159 --> 00:35:55,840
thousand and nine with valley fever, and it was just

752
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:57,000
like it just ruined his career.

753
00:35:57,079 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 2: Let's look if it correlated. Yeah, May of two thousand

754
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:02,679
and nine, and guess what, two thousand and eight is

755
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,199
that great year and then two thousand and nine he

756
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,360
hit one eight, he was ascending thirty games, he was

757
00:36:08,519 --> 00:36:11,119
valley fever ruined his career at.

758
00:36:11,079 --> 00:36:13,039
Speaker 3: Valley fever, and that's not even a thing. People know

759
00:36:13,079 --> 00:36:15,400
about We know about it because they're from Arizona.

760
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,599
Speaker 2: But yeah, well, and valley fever actually is a little

761
00:36:17,639 --> 00:36:21,039
bit more common in Arizona because the dust, like we

762
00:36:21,119 --> 00:36:24,159
get the haboobs because it's like when windstorms come in,

763
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:27,559
they kick up like crazy dust and we you know,

764
00:36:27,559 --> 00:36:29,760
we have sand and there's so much more dirt. There's

765
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,880
less like grassland and stuff. So valley fever hides a

766
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:34,960
lot more out here, and it actually is a little

767
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:37,400
bit more common than you think out here. But never

768
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,679
if I heard a baseball player getting it and he

769
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:43,119
lost thirty to thirty five pounds which made him miss

770
00:36:43,119 --> 00:36:46,480
the remainder of that season and he never recovered.

771
00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, it says I'm looking at valley fever history. It

772
00:36:50,519 --> 00:36:54,239
says it's an infection cos by inhaling some type of

773
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:58,280
spores from the soil, which, while named for California San

774
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:01,760
Joaquin Valley, Arizona is the epicenter for the disease, with

775
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:05,920
Maricopapima now counties reporting the highest infection rates in the

776
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,400
United States. So weird, and.

777
00:37:10,199 --> 00:37:14,159
Speaker 2: He is now focused on private lending and pursuing his

778
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:19,480
passion of travel, so he obviously transcend transitioned to a

779
00:37:19,519 --> 00:37:23,039
financial sector and he's working in private lending. So that's

780
00:37:23,079 --> 00:37:26,360
what he is he's doing now. And by the way,

781
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:31,880
his father was John M. Jackson, who who I guess

782
00:37:32,119 --> 00:37:35,000
would act on General Hospital. I didn't know.

783
00:37:35,159 --> 00:37:37,880
Speaker 3: Okay, he went to the NBA.

784
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:42,199
Speaker 2: I don't know, but he went to my my aunt's college.

785
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:44,199
That was one reason I loved him a lot too,

786
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,440
because there was like the UC Berkeley stuff out there.

787
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:49,639
I don't know, rabbit hole, rabbit hole that happens, but

788
00:37:49,679 --> 00:37:53,119
that was the guy that, like Jackson, absolutely was obsessed.

789
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:54,760
Speaker 3: With Connor Jackson. I thought he was going to be

790
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:59,599
just the biggest thing and hard hitting Carlos Quinton. Same

791
00:37:59,639 --> 00:38:02,000
group of young guys coming up.

792
00:38:02,159 --> 00:38:04,760
Speaker 2: And he's coaching I think with like the White Sox whatever.

793
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:08,199
But that's the Hall of Remember, those are the member Berrys.

794
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:11,360
Speaker 3: I bet he's teaching them, Hey, don't be like Zach

795
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:14,159
Greenky and lean in with your shoulder if you get

796
00:38:14,159 --> 00:38:16,119
a fight. Oh he actually if the guy is way

797
00:38:16,119 --> 00:38:16,840
bigger than you.

798
00:38:17,079 --> 00:38:20,360
Speaker 2: Riley, Carlos Quentin got hit like more than any baseball

799
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:21,719
player for like a couple of years or whatever.

800
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:24,039
Speaker 3: He was just over the plate all the time. They

801
00:38:24,119 --> 00:38:26,519
got mad that people hit him, it's crazy, stupid.

802
00:38:28,199 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 2: Some news on the comebacks, and then we got to

803
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:31,960
get to the seven days. Jose Ramirez has been hitting

804
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:33,760
off a tee and is trying to come back shortly

805
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:35,880
after the All Star break. That would be huge if

806
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:38,559
that happens. Still kind of assume August, but I think

807
00:38:38,559 --> 00:38:40,920
that's a great sign Edwin. Diaz threw a bullpen on

808
00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:43,119
Sunday and said he was feeling good, planning to come

809
00:38:43,159 --> 00:38:46,800
back after the All Star break, and I saw this note.

810
00:38:47,119 --> 00:38:49,199
Someone thought this might have been like a gotcha thing,

811
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:52,079
but it wasn't because it was reported by the Dodgers

812
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:56,719
beat reporter and multiple accounts put it out. But he

813
00:38:56,760 --> 00:39:00,480
also commented on the cock fighting thing, and he's just like,

814
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:02,559
I haven't heard anything. He's like, I didn't do anything wrong.

815
00:39:02,639 --> 00:39:04,519
I haven't heard anything. Because someone asked him about it

816
00:39:04,559 --> 00:39:08,119
and it was like, okay, baseball just completely just having

817
00:39:08,159 --> 00:39:12,239
none of it. So if you know, moral stuff aside,

818
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:14,599
if you're just like I wonder if something doesn't sound.

819
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,679
Speaker 3: Like anything that's gonna happen, Oh yeah, yeah, it's just

820
00:39:16,679 --> 00:39:17,280
going to come.

821
00:39:17,159 --> 00:39:20,360
Speaker 2: Back, and and you know him talking about it. I'm

822
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:22,320
going to talk to Murakami. He ran for a couple

823
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:23,840
of days, which is great, and they're saying he's going

824
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:27,000
to start a rehab assignment today. That is the idea

825
00:39:27,079 --> 00:39:28,800
that he was going to go to Charlotte and play

826
00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:30,239
for the Charlotte Knights, which.

827
00:39:31,039 --> 00:39:33,559
Speaker 3: Could back for the weekend, like right before the All

828
00:39:33,599 --> 00:39:34,159
Star break.

829
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,639
Speaker 2: But yeah, maybe a couple of days that he comes back.

830
00:39:36,679 --> 00:39:38,440
Speaker 3: To him in the home run Derby Man, he'd be fun.

831
00:39:38,639 --> 00:39:42,280
Speaker 2: I would have been sick. Zach Galoff activated from the IL.

832
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:45,039
Mike Trout took some BP and might be returning on Tuesday,

833
00:39:45,079 --> 00:39:46,920
a little bit before the All Star Game, which is great.

834
00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:50,079
Max Freed is close to making rehab start, which could

835
00:39:50,119 --> 00:39:52,360
get him lining up to that kind of later July thing.

836
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:58,079
And Tristan Cassis nobody knows. Shut down from his rehab

837
00:39:58,079 --> 00:39:59,920
assignment with a wrist injury.

838
00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:05,119
Speaker 3: And when will Tristan Cossas play again? Nobody knows.

839
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:09,119
Speaker 2: I kind of think he might be a guy. It's

840
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:12,599
one of two ways. I either think he's going to

841
00:40:12,679 --> 00:40:14,920
have a new home and he's going to just be

842
00:40:15,079 --> 00:40:18,400
like a bounce back guy in two years somewhere else,

843
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:23,480
you know, the the athletics or something or he's gonna

844
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:25,239
be a guy that's gonna be out of baseball completely,

845
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,400
like we might just he might be gone, you know

846
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:29,800
what I mean. He might go the route of like

847
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:32,239
you know, like Joey Vado is doing, but like Joey

848
00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:35,440
Voda's successful, like Tristan Costas might just go and like

849
00:40:35,559 --> 00:40:38,920
teach yoga or something, you know, and start a thing.

850
00:40:39,159 --> 00:40:40,239
You know, maybe he'll go work with me.

851
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:43,639
Speaker 3: Maybe Connor Jackson just hires all former first baseman for his.

852
00:40:43,559 --> 00:40:46,440
Speaker 2: Company financial advisor or whatever or whatever.

853
00:40:46,519 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 3: So Tristan Costas is too weird to be working in finance, right,

854
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:50,960
That's why.

855
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:54,320
Speaker 2: I said, like he'd be like owning like a yoga

856
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:57,400
studio for baseball players or something like something.

857
00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:59,119
Speaker 3: I just I just get these vibes.

858
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:01,719
Speaker 2: I do think he likes the game, and I think

859
00:41:02,119 --> 00:41:03,880
he wants to succeed at it. But I wonder if

860
00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,159
we're heading down this route of like a I said

861
00:41:06,159 --> 00:41:08,599
this on leading Off, but like Alex Kirlov, where it's

862
00:41:08,639 --> 00:41:10,639
just gonna be too much. You know, you can't you

863
00:41:10,679 --> 00:41:13,639
can't recover. He can't play this game. Eventually, he's gonna

864
00:41:13,639 --> 00:41:16,039
get waived or something like. He might be too talented.

865
00:41:16,039 --> 00:41:17,599
The teams are not ready to give up on him.

866
00:41:17,639 --> 00:41:20,119
So I might be calling this early, but this is

867
00:41:20,159 --> 00:41:20,920
like two years.

868
00:41:21,119 --> 00:41:23,079
Speaker 3: This is too and I'm sure he'll bounce around for

869
00:41:23,159 --> 00:41:25,119
at least two or three more years. Yeah, there'll be

870
00:41:25,119 --> 00:41:27,000
a white Sox. That's where you succeed when you like,

871
00:41:27,679 --> 00:41:29,360
you know you good.

872
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:31,719
Speaker 2: They don't have room for him, Yeah, well they they

873
00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:33,239
spent the last three or four years. They would just

874
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:36,679
pick up just a handful of just random players.

875
00:41:37,079 --> 00:41:39,639
Speaker 3: They just give him, I doubt move on.

876
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:43,360
Speaker 2: She make he's a little bit of Lamont Wade. Here's

877
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:45,239
from Jared Kelnick. And they just throw all these guys

878
00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:47,199
in in a pot and see if any of them work.

879
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:49,280
But maybe they won't be that anymore.

880
00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:49,960
Speaker 3: So all right, there you go.

881
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:51,719
Speaker 2: That's the news that's floating around here.

882
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:52,880
Speaker 3: Let's like a break.

883
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:54,599
Speaker 2: We come back and look at the last seven day

884
00:41:54,639 --> 00:41:57,039
markers for some hitters and pitchers, see what's going on

885
00:41:57,239 --> 00:42:00,760
around baseball. We'll do it right after this. You would

886
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,760
have punched me right now, but you want why don't

887
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:04,880
you punch me in the face.

888
00:42:05,039 --> 00:42:06,480
Speaker 3: Punch me in the face.

889
00:42:08,079 --> 00:42:10,320
Speaker 2: Hey, Derek, you know what's always good for shoulder paint?

890
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:13,480
What if you lick money in this league over the

891
00:42:13,559 --> 00:42:17,360
last seven days, nobody from batting average standpoint has been

892
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:21,400
hotter than mister Auto Lopez. Auto Lopez All Star Auto

893
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:25,079
Lopez very well deserved hitting five hundred. Nick Nozalees was

894
00:42:25,159 --> 00:42:28,599
right behind him at four eighty one, p four seventy four,

895
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:31,320
and then a couple other names, Jordan, Garrett, Mitchell was

896
00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:34,400
in there. But Auto Lopez now nine homer seventeen stolen

897
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:37,800
bases with a three forty six batting average going for

898
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:43,920
that baton title. Are you a buyer that Auto Lopez's

899
00:42:44,079 --> 00:42:45,599
high rank is deserved?

900
00:42:45,679 --> 00:42:48,159
Speaker 3: Now? Should he be a top.

901
00:42:49,679 --> 00:42:52,440
Speaker 2: I don't know, four overall second basement.

902
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:54,840
Speaker 3: Okay, So if you're asking me if he should be

903
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,199
a top four overall second baseman, I would say yes.

904
00:42:58,079 --> 00:43:01,039
If you're asking me, do I think I think he's

905
00:43:01,039 --> 00:43:02,800
going to continue this for the rest of the year,

906
00:43:03,159 --> 00:43:05,719
my answer would probably be a little more murky. I'd

907
00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:07,840
say yes, for sure. The numbers are great. He's leading

908
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:10,800
the league in batting average, He's almost ten ten on

909
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:13,079
homer's a stolen basis. He's scoring a lot of runs,

910
00:43:13,079 --> 00:43:15,440
which are harder to come by than RBI, so they're

911
00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:18,159
more important so I think he's doing great and he

912
00:43:18,199 --> 00:43:23,159
absolutely the ranking right now. Overall in Yahoo he's sixth,

913
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:26,800
and I know they wait batting average way more. It's

914
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:30,079
probably close to being right. Man, he's having an unbelievable season.

915
00:43:30,519 --> 00:43:32,320
Do I think he can last in the second half?

916
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,840
Probably not? Can he still be a top forty to

917
00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:36,880
fifty player? Yes?

918
00:43:37,159 --> 00:43:40,119
Speaker 2: Who would you rather? Auto Lopez or Bryce Terrang? Here

919
00:43:40,119 --> 00:43:44,159
are their numbers. Tereng has three more runs. He does

920
00:43:44,199 --> 00:43:50,000
have three more rbi. He also has nine more I'm sorry,

921
00:43:50,119 --> 00:43:53,719
three more homers. He has nine more RBI, but Auto

922
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:56,920
Lopez has four more stolen bases, and the batting average

923
00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:59,559
difference is two seventy one to three forty three. So

924
00:43:59,599 --> 00:44:01,719
Lopez only has two of the four categories two of

925
00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,480
the five categories. But in the Player Raider and Fantasy pros,

926
00:44:04,679 --> 00:44:06,840
Auto Lopez on the season is number one at second base.

927
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:07,840
Price Train is number two.

928
00:44:08,039 --> 00:44:10,199
Speaker 3: I'll find the counting stats somewhere else. Give me the

929
00:44:10,679 --> 00:44:12,320
sixty points in batting average.

930
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:14,679
Speaker 2: So you're gonna take Lopez over Terrang? Yes? I would

931
00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:19,480
would you take Terrang over Brandon Lao? Brandon lau has Okay,

932
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:25,599
he has eleven more homers, significantly more RBI, less runs, obviously,

933
00:44:25,679 --> 00:44:28,119
less still in bases, and less batting average. So he

934
00:44:28,119 --> 00:44:31,519
he dominates in two categories, but Lopez dominates in the

935
00:44:31,519 --> 00:44:35,400
other three, and you're taking you're taking over him.

936
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:38,440
Speaker 3: I yeah, I'm gonna take Lopez over Brandon Lao because

937
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,599
roster brand Lao so many years, he's gonna miss a

938
00:44:42,679 --> 00:44:44,280
chunk of time at some point here I feel like

939
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:44,719
as well.

940
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:47,920
Speaker 2: So then here you go this player forty nine runs

941
00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:50,920
to fifty nine runs. I'm gonna take as well over Audio. Yep,

942
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:55,639
it is can Tel. Ten more runs for Lopez, eight more.

943
00:44:55,519 --> 00:44:57,599
Speaker 3: Give me everybody's name, and then say this player, like

944
00:44:57,599 --> 00:44:58,599
I can't figure that out.

945
00:44:58,639 --> 00:45:03,400
Speaker 2: Come eight homers to it goes Marte's way, eight RBI

946
00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:07,519
goes Marte's way, thirteen stolen bases in huge batting average.

947
00:45:07,519 --> 00:45:10,400
So Marte takes three of the five. I'm sorry, Lopez

948
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:14,119
takes three of the five categories from Marte. Marte only

949
00:45:14,159 --> 00:45:15,599
gets the RBI in homers.

950
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:21,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, but the homers, hmm, it's close. I think I'd

951
00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:22,719
take Kittel.

952
00:45:22,679 --> 00:45:25,639
Speaker 2: Last one Jazz Chisholm. But let me give the stats

953
00:45:25,639 --> 00:45:29,239
out before you answer. Runs forty three to fifty nine

954
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:32,800
in favor of Lopez, twelve to nine homers in favor

955
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:36,199
of jazz, thirty three to forty two RBI in favor

956
00:45:36,199 --> 00:45:40,400
of Lopez, seventeen to twenty six stolen bases in favor

957
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:44,360
of jazz, three forty three to two twenty five average

958
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:46,119
in favor of Lopez. So Lopez has three of the

959
00:45:46,159 --> 00:45:46,920
five categories.

960
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:50,159
Speaker 3: Again, the two twenty five is just so bad, it's

961
00:45:50,199 --> 00:45:54,000
like almost unstomachable. Let me see unstomachable.

962
00:45:54,039 --> 00:45:54,639
Speaker 2: I like that.

963
00:45:54,679 --> 00:45:57,840
Speaker 3: Two two, two eighty one, one seventy seven. The swings

964
00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:01,760
are just too big for jazz. Give me Auto might

965
00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:03,239
be the best second basement now.

966
00:46:03,079 --> 00:46:04,880
Speaker 2: That I think that's what we've gotten to. I mean,

967
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:07,719
you took Katel over him, but you're thinking.

968
00:46:07,599 --> 00:46:09,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I'm still I'm still wishy washy on that one.

969
00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:13,559
Even to be honest like it, Lopez might just be

970
00:46:13,639 --> 00:46:19,840
the best second basement now. Like Terrang, Terrang, Lao, Kattel,

971
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:23,719
and Jazz, those are the ones that compete, I think,

972
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:29,719
but I probably at this point right now, it's Otto, Lopez, Kittel, Terrang,

973
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:30,920
those are the three that I want.

974
00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:34,760
Speaker 2: Really interesting one too is Nickonzalz, who was second there.

975
00:46:35,519 --> 00:46:39,280
Nicknzales has over three hundred bats this year, maybe to

976
00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:43,039
your shock, is hitting three to twelve on the year,

977
00:46:43,679 --> 00:46:46,320
has scored forty nine runs, but he only has four

978
00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:48,280
homers and four stolen bases. He does it at three

979
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:53,760
seventy OBP. Having a surprisingly good season, but the profile

980
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:56,480
has completely changed for him. I mean, I guess a

981
00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:57,599
little dramatic.

982
00:46:57,400 --> 00:46:59,239
Speaker 3: But we're two years ago.

983
00:47:00,079 --> 00:47:03,280
Speaker 2: He was eight percent barrel, thirteen degree launch angle.

984
00:47:03,599 --> 00:47:04,920
Speaker 3: You know he's doing all that sud.

985
00:47:05,039 --> 00:47:06,800
Speaker 2: Let me see what his pull rate back then was, Yeah,

986
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:10,039
twenty percent pull rate. This year it's a two point

987
00:47:10,079 --> 00:47:13,480
eight percent barrel. He has stopped barreling. He's stopped trying

988
00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:15,079
to get the ball in the air five point seven

989
00:47:15,159 --> 00:47:17,920
launch angle. His average hex velocity has dropped. He's still

990
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:19,559
not striking out, which is great. And I want to

991
00:47:19,559 --> 00:47:21,840
see if he slowed his bat down because he used

992
00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:24,480
to be a big batspeed guy in college. It's actually

993
00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:27,599
I didn't realize this. It's gone up. Sixty eight point

994
00:47:27,639 --> 00:47:30,159
seven is rookie year. Well, No, seventy one point one

995
00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:33,480
twenty twenty four. That's the barreling in the launch angle.

996
00:47:33,519 --> 00:47:36,440
I told you seventy point five, So he's kind of

997
00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:38,400
lowered this down a little bit. It looks like he's

998
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:41,920
opened up his stands. He is letting the ball travel,

999
00:47:42,199 --> 00:47:44,840
He's not trying to pull it. He's playing for contact

1000
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:48,239
and it's working for him. Is Nick Gonzalez somebody we

1001
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:50,039
should be giving a little bit more of attention to.

1002
00:47:50,199 --> 00:47:55,440
In the player Raider on Fantasy Pros, Nick Gonzalez is

1003
00:47:55,559 --> 00:47:58,039
ranked You want to guess what second base? Among second basemen,

1004
00:47:58,039 --> 00:48:04,320
He's ranked eighth fourteenth, so in fifteen man, that is

1005
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:06,800
a starting second baseman. He is ranked higher on the

1006
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:09,119
Player Raider Again, I think this is waiting.

1007
00:48:10,159 --> 00:48:11,360
Speaker 3: He forty rbi though too.

1008
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:14,000
Speaker 2: I didn't realize that forty rbi and forty rbi forty

1009
00:48:14,039 --> 00:48:17,679
nine runs is impressive. He's ranked higher than brooks Lee. Yeah,

1010
00:48:17,679 --> 00:48:22,679
hold on, higher than brooks Lee, Sam Antonachi, He's higher

1011
00:48:22,679 --> 00:48:25,119
than Curtis, Me, Luke, Keishal those are some players he's

1012
00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:28,639
He's just below Ozzy Albi's and Luisa Rise on that list.

1013
00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:32,239
Speaker 3: Let me ask you brooks Ley because Brooksley has six

1014
00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:36,639
year runs, but ten more homers, eight more rbi, one

1015
00:48:36,639 --> 00:48:41,679
more solemn base. But it's uh three twelve to two

1016
00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:43,800
fifty in batting average.

1017
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:47,639
Speaker 2: I think I'm brooks Lee on that one because Nick

1018
00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:52,440
Andzalz is towing the line of like Jacob Wilson Luisa

1019
00:48:52,599 --> 00:48:56,159
Rise like in a points league, I'm Nickonzalez. Nickonzalaz is

1020
00:48:56,199 --> 00:48:59,599
like low strikeouts, which you love. His XBA is two

1021
00:48:59,639 --> 00:49:03,639
eighty seven. That's phenomenal. Like he clearly looks like he's

1022
00:49:03,639 --> 00:49:07,519
his contact hitter and he's consistently making contact against all

1023
00:49:07,599 --> 00:49:10,039
type of pitch types. So like I buy, I buy

1024
00:49:10,079 --> 00:49:13,119
this version of him of like what he's doing, but

1025
00:49:13,199 --> 00:49:15,000
I just don't think it's gonna lead to he doesn't

1026
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:16,679
steal bases at a big clip or any of that.

1027
00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:19,039
So like I'm gonna pick a lot of guys over him,

1028
00:49:19,039 --> 00:49:20,920
I'm gonna pick brooks Lee over him because I think

1029
00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:23,320
that's a median. I think a really interesting one is

1030
00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:26,280
a guy like the Nuniaz who only does one thing,

1031
00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:30,320
versus a guy like Nick Gonzales, who giving serviceable RBI,

1032
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:33,000
giving solid runs, giving good batting average. Like I think

1033
00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:37,440
I think Nick Gonzales is more valuable than the seam Nuniaz,

1034
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:40,239
who does again one thing and that's stolen bases and

1035
00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:42,800
he actually hurts you in two others like significantly in

1036
00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:44,039
batting average and homers.

1037
00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:46,880
Speaker 3: What about what about Antonacci?

1038
00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:50,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, I kind of knew you were gonna go there.

1039
00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:53,880
I would go with Antonacci because I think Antonachi it

1040
00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:56,880
is the counting stats, Like he's already hit more homers,

1041
00:49:56,920 --> 00:50:00,800
He's stealing significantly more bases, Like he gets on really well.

1042
00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:02,679
Like I'm going to take Antonacci over him.

1043
00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:06,760
Speaker 3: But I do think they're too right, like way fewer Antony,

1044
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:11,119
way fewer. Yeah, about sixty sixty or seven actually seventy

1045
00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:13,880
h I c k listened to the pod and he

1046
00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:16,000
texted me, he said, just listen to baseball Pod. I

1047
00:50:16,039 --> 00:50:19,000
traded Austin Riley for Antonacci in early June in an

1048
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:22,400
OBP league. Some in the league chat literally said, wtf

1049
00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:23,480
are you doing? Right?

1050
00:50:23,599 --> 00:50:27,599
Speaker 2: So he traded Riley for Antonacci. Yes, yeah, great trade

1051
00:50:27,639 --> 00:50:31,800
and Austin Riley's dead. Yeah, it absolutely worked. So yeah,

1052
00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:33,639
that's a great trade, the one that was tough to

1053
00:50:33,639 --> 00:50:35,599
make back then. That was really good, high tight for him.

1054
00:50:35,639 --> 00:50:38,480
But yeah, I think Nickonzales is someone needs a little

1055
00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:41,800
bit more attention. Definitely has some placeholders for leagues, Like

1056
00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:44,639
it's probably right around the Antonacci rane, like you know,

1057
00:50:44,639 --> 00:50:46,440
what I think a good example is if you're owning

1058
00:50:46,519 --> 00:50:50,400
Ernie Clement, you should own Nick Gonzales. There Ernie Clement

1059
00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:52,840
has a few more homers, but they're like kind of

1060
00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:55,920
the same vibe. So if where you value value, Ernie

1061
00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:58,320
Clement should be the same range. Though, I will say

1062
00:50:58,639 --> 00:51:01,920
check this out. Nickenszals is rank fourteenth or Anie Clement

1063
00:51:02,039 --> 00:51:05,639
is twenty ninth on this player Raider, what's the hitting

1064
00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:11,360
it in two ninety seven two stolen bases? Where did

1065
00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:14,679
he go? Not at seven homers, low rbi twenty nine

1066
00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:18,280
runs are okay? At thirty eight, Like you know, nothing

1067
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:21,320
is incredible. It's a lot of like below average stuff

1068
00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:23,679
with great batting average. He gets lots of hits. He's

1069
00:51:23,679 --> 00:51:27,280
a great points league player, but common denominator always. It's

1070
00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:31,840
very confusing because you have people that care about points

1071
00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:34,599
leagues talk about players that it is one of the

1072
00:51:34,639 --> 00:51:37,320
few times where it is dramatically different. You know, like

1073
00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:40,480
sometimes in football half PPR to PPR. Most of the

1074
00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:42,199
time it doesn't matter, but then there's a couple of

1075
00:51:42,199 --> 00:51:45,199
times it does matter. That's kind of like the points

1076
00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:47,400
league thing, but it's much bigger where there are guys

1077
00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:51,039
that are almost nothing burgers in category leagues that are

1078
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:54,039
super relevant. Jung Houli is a prime example.

1079
00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:55,760
Speaker 3: And just don't strike out in a points league and

1080
00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:56,519
you're worth a lot.

1081
00:51:56,800 --> 00:52:00,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. In home run department, Dancy swan And had five,

1082
00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:04,000
and he had a whole bunch of guys Jordan camin Naro, Devers,

1083
00:52:04,079 --> 00:52:08,039
Riley Green and Josh Bell with four. So Dna Swanson

1084
00:52:08,079 --> 00:52:09,880
was a big talk of the town obviously because he

1085
00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:12,119
had that big output, but he was able to chip

1086
00:52:12,159 --> 00:52:13,920
in a few others. His batting average is up at

1087
00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:18,599
two oh seven, sixteen homers, ten stolen bases. He's hitting

1088
00:52:18,599 --> 00:52:22,719
two eighty six this month, which is four games, by

1089
00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:26,000
the way, But I would like to just point out

1090
00:52:26,559 --> 00:52:28,840
he only has hits in two of the four games,

1091
00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:31,920
and three of his four hits came in the one game,

1092
00:52:32,079 --> 00:52:34,920
so he had this little stretch again. It was literally

1093
00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:38,360
against Padres he was two three, two for four, three

1094
00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:41,320
for four, and three for five, and he had five

1095
00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:44,280
homers between the two games which went June to July.

1096
00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:48,119
But he is inconsistent still kind of across the board.

1097
00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:51,199
So I think there's spots to own him because accounting

1098
00:52:51,239 --> 00:52:54,920
stats you can see where they're so big, but you know,

1099
00:52:56,280 --> 00:52:56,800
I don't know.

1100
00:52:57,519 --> 00:52:59,920
Speaker 3: Like those homers came in the middle of the Padres

1101
00:53:00,119 --> 00:53:01,960
streak of the year two where they lost eight straight

1102
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:05,519
and they just snapped it last night. So terrible run

1103
00:53:05,559 --> 00:53:08,239
for the Padres, good run for Dansby. I am also

1104
00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:08,880
not buying it.

1105
00:53:09,639 --> 00:53:13,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, not buying it in like a I don't want.

1106
00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:14,960
Speaker 3: Two eighty six for the rest of the year. When

1107
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:17,000
he you know, because he's hit four games this spot.

1108
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:18,920
That's the point, Like he's hitting two h seven dude,

1109
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:19,320
yeah you.

1110
00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:21,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like you got to kind of assume he's this

1111
00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:23,840
like two forty kind of inconsistent guy who can have

1112
00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:26,840
these big power outputs and stuff. But it I mean,

1113
00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:30,400
it's like, you know, probably sixty percent of his production

1114
00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:32,320
has come in like a week's worth of games if

1115
00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:34,760
you stack them all together, which is like insane. You

1116
00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:37,519
need a little bit more balance. Maybe it's good for Rodo,

1117
00:53:37,559 --> 00:53:39,960
but the batting average is just like murdering you in there.

1118
00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:43,719
Anybody else in this home run mark or do anything

1119
00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:46,199
for you. I mean, Josh Bell is probably the only name.

1120
00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:49,239
I'm not really sure we've like mentioned Josh Bel once

1121
00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:50,119
this year.

1122
00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:52,559
Speaker 3: But Josh Bell does this every year. He's good for

1123
00:53:52,599 --> 00:53:54,400
a two to three week stretch and then sucks for

1124
00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:55,039
the rest of the year.

1125
00:53:55,119 --> 00:53:57,920
Speaker 2: So he's the prime guy to get traded for someone

1126
00:53:57,920 --> 00:53:59,960
that needs a first baseman. You know, maybe it's like

1127
00:54:00,519 --> 00:54:02,880
Diamondbacks if they were to try to go cheap, like

1128
00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:05,599
he should be moved off of this team in favor

1129
00:54:05,599 --> 00:54:08,320
of some type of contender soon. It's been pretty solid

1130
00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:12,480
to forty seven, thirteen homers, bad OBP numbers. He's striking

1131
00:54:12,519 --> 00:54:14,480
out a bit more, but you know, the quality of

1132
00:54:14,519 --> 00:54:15,719
contact looks pretty decent.

1133
00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:17,039
Speaker 3: This is good.

1134
00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:20,079
Speaker 2: This is a deeper League play fifteen team corner infield play.

1135
00:54:20,079 --> 00:54:22,800
I think I'm interested in him, especially if he were

1136
00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:25,840
to go somewhere better. But right now he's kind of

1137
00:54:25,920 --> 00:54:28,719
DH only and you know, had a really the hot week.

1138
00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:31,800
That was about it. And on the RBIs Jake McCarthy

1139
00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:35,039
led the way with thirteen, followed by Jordan and Dansby

1140
00:54:35,079 --> 00:54:37,920
with eleven, Riley Green had ten, and then a shlew

1141
00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:41,519
of players with a bunch more. So we stop at

1142
00:54:41,599 --> 00:54:44,519
Rake McCarthy, who sure would have looked good as a

1143
00:54:44,559 --> 00:54:48,199
diamondback this year three zero six batting average, nine homers,

1144
00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:54,039
fourteen stolen bases three forty three. Obp, he is barreling

1145
00:54:54,079 --> 00:54:56,840
the ball better. He is significantly getting the ball in

1146
00:54:56,880 --> 00:54:59,440
the air more, even though he's not hitting it hard.

1147
00:55:00,079 --> 00:55:01,920
This is I do this a lot, and I apologize

1148
00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:02,679
if you get annoyed it.

1149
00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:03,519
Speaker 3: But this is that C. J.

1150
00:55:03,639 --> 00:55:07,039
Speaker 2: Abrams thing right here. You know, it's Beryl get the

1151
00:55:07,079 --> 00:55:09,760
ball in the air. And obviously you're hitting in Colorado

1152
00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:12,440
type of thing when you don't have a full complement

1153
00:55:12,599 --> 00:55:14,719
of this really great hitting profile.

1154
00:55:15,079 --> 00:55:15,960
Speaker 3: That's where he is.

1155
00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:20,280
Speaker 2: I want to see his home yeah, I mean home

1156
00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:22,239
is definitely lifting it because he has seven of his

1157
00:55:22,360 --> 00:55:27,159
nine homers have come at home. He's he's hit three

1158
00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:29,880
forty two, two ninety one, three twenty six and three

1159
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:34,159
eighty three. And he's getting lifted up by Colorado helping

1160
00:55:34,239 --> 00:55:36,800
him out with some big blasts. It's just he's kind

1161
00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:39,360
of hard to deny right now, like he's always been

1162
00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:41,159
a contact hitter. No, I don't think he's gonna get traded.

1163
00:55:41,199 --> 00:55:42,599
Think the Colorado built around him.

1164
00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:46,119
Speaker 3: Now he's getting traded the Astros and Mony the Astros

1165
00:55:46,119 --> 00:55:50,400
are interested in Jake McCarthy, Mickey Moniac. I mean, he's

1166
00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:52,119
not a free agent till twenty twenty nine, So to

1167
00:55:52,159 --> 00:55:54,480
your point, maybe, but he is arbitration eligible. And we

1168
00:55:54,519 --> 00:55:57,599
know the Rockies eight paying players money at all. Unless

1169
00:55:57,599 --> 00:55:59,599
their Chris Bryant, they can never play, so.

1170
00:56:00,039 --> 00:56:02,320
Speaker 2: He'd have a glut they've got. That's their biggest thing.

1171
00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:05,679
They've got like six different guys that can be an outfielder,

1172
00:56:05,719 --> 00:56:06,320
and mccart's is.

1173
00:56:06,280 --> 00:56:09,519
Speaker 3: Just stacking the minors for them. Right, They're not winning

1174
00:56:09,519 --> 00:56:13,239
anything this year. McCarthy's never going to be more valuable

1175
00:56:13,280 --> 00:56:14,000
than he is now.

1176
00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:17,079
Speaker 2: Worst case scenario for fantasy, though, if you are right,

1177
00:56:17,199 --> 00:56:19,480
this is bad, yeah, fantasy, because I mean, he's still

1178
00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:22,599
a solid player, but this power output is changing. It's

1179
00:56:22,639 --> 00:56:24,679
kind of changing the profile a little bit because I mean,

1180
00:56:24,679 --> 00:56:28,119
he is pacing to be a twenty thirty guy with

1181
00:56:28,199 --> 00:56:29,960
a three hundred average And if.

1182
00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:32,400
Speaker 3: You have a slugging home road too as well as

1183
00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:34,800
it just as horrific or even worse.

1184
00:56:35,039 --> 00:56:36,800
Speaker 2: Let me see, Yeah, I can tell you he is

1185
00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:40,679
five ninety two slug at home, four thirty four on

1186
00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:41,079
the road.

1187
00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:44,000
Speaker 3: So it's not great. Yeah, I mean he's seventy five

1188
00:56:44,039 --> 00:56:45,159
iso one two.

1189
00:56:45,519 --> 00:56:48,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's significantly better at home, not just from average,

1190
00:56:48,760 --> 00:56:52,280
but a home run perspective the misleading thing. If he

1191
00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:54,360
were to be traded, he probably still finishes as a

1192
00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:56,239
fifteen to thirty guy this year. It's gonna be pretty

1193
00:56:56,239 --> 00:56:58,159
hard for him not to be. But we want him

1194
00:56:58,199 --> 00:57:00,400
to stay in Colorado. And he's very relevant now and

1195
00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:02,960
I cannot believe he's still hitting over three hundred. It's

1196
00:57:03,079 --> 00:57:06,719
crazy town to me. In the runs department, Kyle Stowers

1197
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:09,199
led the way with eight. We had Hicks, Carrols, and

1198
00:57:09,239 --> 00:57:12,000
Swanson with I'm sorry he had ten, and then those

1199
00:57:12,039 --> 00:57:14,480
guys I just mentioned had eight. Stours is the big guy.

1200
00:57:14,679 --> 00:57:16,840
Stowers is a great guy to talk about here because

1201
00:57:17,400 --> 00:57:19,840
let's check back in on him because it was bad, bad,

1202
00:57:20,199 --> 00:57:22,199
and there have been some improvements. He's back up to

1203
00:57:22,239 --> 00:57:25,440
a two forty seven batting average. He's got eleven homers

1204
00:57:25,840 --> 00:57:28,679
after really struggling. He hit two twenty nine in April

1205
00:57:28,719 --> 00:57:32,199
in a small sample size, two eighteen in May and

1206
00:57:32,320 --> 00:57:35,320
look like he might be cooked. He then went June

1207
00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:38,000
with a two fifty five average with five homers, and

1208
00:57:38,039 --> 00:57:41,159
he's already hit three here in July. He's off, yeah,

1209
00:57:41,239 --> 00:57:44,239
really hot July. If you look at where things are

1210
00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:47,719
standing now. His strikeout rates the problem, but everything else

1211
00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:49,599
looks like it's lining back up, getting the ball in

1212
00:57:49,639 --> 00:57:51,559
the air. He's hitting the living crap out of it.

1213
00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:54,480
His xba's in the two forties, which is not like

1214
00:57:55,119 --> 00:57:57,639
the coolest thing in the world, but it's good because

1215
00:57:57,639 --> 00:58:00,800
it's kind of like a stable zone. He's pulling the

1216
00:58:00,840 --> 00:58:03,000
ball in the air, and this is what I really like.

1217
00:58:03,599 --> 00:58:06,719
He is balanced on his hitting type. He's not only

1218
00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:10,679
dominating fastballs. It's two forty six fastballs, two thirty five,

1219
00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:15,159
breaking two sixty four against off speed and the fastball

1220
00:58:15,159 --> 00:58:18,639
and breaking pitches. His XBA is higher than the actual

1221
00:58:18,719 --> 00:58:20,559
so I think those are good signs for him. I

1222
00:58:20,559 --> 00:58:22,400
think he might be turning a corner a little bit,

1223
00:58:22,519 --> 00:58:25,480
but the strikeouts do cause a little bit of a problem.

1224
00:58:25,679 --> 00:58:28,519
But I think I'm gonna be a buyer back in

1225
00:58:28,599 --> 00:58:31,440
of Kyle Stowers because also I like, I love the

1226
00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:32,840
way his profile is.

1227
00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:36,679
Speaker 3: He's got the opposite issue of Jake McCarthy's two ten

1228
00:58:36,719 --> 00:58:40,079
at home, two seventy five on the road, but the

1229
00:58:40,159 --> 00:58:43,559
power has stayed the same. Five homers at home, six

1230
00:58:43,639 --> 00:58:47,159
on the road, so power plays everywhere. But for whatever reason,

1231
00:58:47,400 --> 00:58:48,760
he's seeing the ball better on the road.

1232
00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:52,760
Speaker 2: I'll take it. I will take it. Solen basis Connor

1233
00:58:52,760 --> 00:58:55,840
Griffin with six, Khalil Watson had four, and then a

1234
00:58:55,880 --> 00:58:59,119
group with the three, and as mentioned before, Connor Griffin

1235
00:58:59,159 --> 00:59:01,599
with just the sneak est amount of stolen bases. I

1236
00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:04,000
just was shocked when I saw that at twenty. Honestly,

1237
00:59:04,039 --> 00:59:06,400
with the I kind of stopped paying attention to the

1238
00:59:06,519 --> 00:59:11,119
leader boards once I knew my Chandler Simpson bet was

1239
00:59:11,239 --> 00:59:12,159
just dead dead.

1240
00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:14,239
Speaker 3: But here is the board.

1241
00:59:15,039 --> 00:59:18,039
Speaker 2: Actually he doesn't even qualify, so check this out. Eighth

1242
00:59:18,119 --> 00:59:20,760
in the league is Chandler Simpson. He's tied with O'Neil,

1243
00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:23,800
Cruz and Tatis with twenty one, and then it goes

1244
00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:26,639
to Randy or Rose Arena. Connor Griffin is stealing so

1245
00:59:26,719 --> 00:59:29,119
much he has doesn't even qualify, but he's up there

1246
00:59:29,119 --> 00:59:30,360
if I change the qualification.

1247
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:32,280
Speaker 3: He is tied with Jose.

1248
00:59:32,199 --> 00:59:34,960
Speaker 2: Cabira with twenty, so he is top ten in baseball.

1249
00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:40,039
No one has less games played or played appearances with

1250
00:59:40,159 --> 00:59:42,280
twenty or more stolen bases than Connor griff and that's

1251
00:59:42,360 --> 00:59:44,840
super impressive. The same Nunians is still at the lead

1252
00:59:44,880 --> 00:59:48,000
with thirty two, Bobby Witt has thirty and then it

1253
00:59:48,039 --> 00:59:52,079
goes Jazz Ramirez, Pete Crow. So I don't know, Simpson

1254
00:59:52,119 --> 00:59:54,639
could still come back, but Bobby Whitt looks like he's

1255
00:59:54,639 --> 00:59:55,679
gonna still fifty this year.

1256
00:59:56,039 --> 00:59:58,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, it takes a couple of pulled hand strings for

1257
00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:01,039
that bet to pay off, but yeah, he can absolutely.

1258
01:00:01,159 --> 01:00:03,400
I think they had him hitting five yesterday and he

1259
01:00:03,440 --> 01:00:06,599
stole base, so Simpson can definitely make it happen. Did

1260
01:00:06,639 --> 01:00:09,159
all these happen in a glut for Griffin at some

1261
01:00:09,239 --> 01:00:13,039
point seven seven, one five Now, I mean he's been

1262
01:00:13,119 --> 01:00:15,880
just really productive the whole time. He does have five

1263
01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:19,559
and four games this month, so he had fifteen going

1264
01:00:19,559 --> 01:00:22,760
into July on July sixty s twenty, so it's a

1265
01:00:22,800 --> 01:00:24,840
lot this week. But that's a great sign.

1266
01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:27,119
Speaker 2: We like that, Yeah, we do like that a lot.

1267
01:00:27,679 --> 01:00:29,320
And then walks, you like to put this up here.

1268
01:00:29,519 --> 01:00:31,920
I think the interesting one is the leader though it's

1269
01:00:32,159 --> 01:00:36,000
Kyle Tucker. Kyle Tucker with eight walks? Is that good?

1270
01:00:36,079 --> 01:00:36,679
Speaker 3: Is that bad?

1271
01:00:36,760 --> 01:00:39,719
Speaker 2: The passiveness of it. He's got seven homer six dolen bases.

1272
01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:42,719
He is hitting two forty six on the year. He

1273
01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:45,760
hit two eleven two forty seven, two forty two, and

1274
01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:48,159
in June he just hit two thirty three. He is

1275
01:00:48,599 --> 01:00:51,280
off to a hot July. He's over four hundred, He's

1276
01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:54,519
got five hits in twelve at bats. Maybe I think

1277
01:00:54,559 --> 01:00:56,599
you would maybe mention this before. He also has six

1278
01:00:56,719 --> 01:01:01,679
walks in July that like, maybe there's something to him

1279
01:01:02,199 --> 01:01:05,559
finding you know, his rhythm and the plate and seeing

1280
01:01:05,599 --> 01:01:07,840
the ball better. And when the walks go up, that's

1281
01:01:07,880 --> 01:01:09,840
the early signs that he has seen the ball. I

1282
01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:11,519
don't know if as you or Joe or someone said that,

1283
01:01:11,840 --> 01:01:14,039
and then it looks like it's kind of materializing. Are

1284
01:01:14,039 --> 01:01:15,599
you gonna buy it though? Are you gonna be a

1285
01:01:15,599 --> 01:01:18,639
buyer of Kyle Tucker now that things are like slow,

1286
01:01:18,760 --> 01:01:22,639
Like there's this little little creepy, creepy in of excitement.

1287
01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:24,960
Speaker 3: Homies made me look stupid enough this year, So I'm

1288
01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:27,360
not gonna go double down and buy back in. So no,

1289
01:01:28,320 --> 01:01:30,960
I won't be buying back in on him. I did.

1290
01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:32,760
I did just go to look at his like just

1291
01:01:32,840 --> 01:01:35,760
overall swing percentage, it's up three percent from last year,

1292
01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:38,239
so it's not even like he's being passive. And that's

1293
01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:42,760
four percent up from twenty twenty four, so he is

1294
01:01:43,159 --> 01:01:46,280
almost six and a half percent up from twenty twenty

1295
01:01:46,280 --> 01:01:49,320
four so in swing percentage. So it's definitely not him

1296
01:01:49,360 --> 01:01:51,679
being passive. He's just not having a good year. So

1297
01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:54,719
hopefully it's turning around. But I'm not going to count

1298
01:01:54,719 --> 01:01:55,239
on it at all.

1299
01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:56,760
Speaker 2: I mean, I might buy I think I might be

1300
01:01:56,800 --> 01:01:59,280
a little by for the second half here. I don't

1301
01:01:59,599 --> 01:02:03,920
I don't cheap. I really wish I could see. It

1302
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:06,400
would be super cool to see like a month breakdown.

1303
01:02:06,480 --> 01:02:08,719
I know it's probably somewhere someone could probably put me

1304
01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:10,000
onto it, but I'd love to see, like what has

1305
01:02:10,039 --> 01:02:12,440
he done in the last fifteen days as far as

1306
01:02:12,440 --> 01:02:14,920
like barrel percentage and launch angle, Like has he made

1307
01:02:14,960 --> 01:02:17,440
some better Because the only way I can kind of

1308
01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:19,199
read this outside of like you go look a game

1309
01:02:19,199 --> 01:02:20,639
log and you're like, oh, look, you know, he's got

1310
01:02:20,679 --> 01:02:23,199
more hits and stuff, but like maybe there is more

1311
01:02:23,199 --> 01:02:25,719
of a comfort level that's starting to happen, you know,

1312
01:02:25,760 --> 01:02:28,239
because he's seeing the ball better, he's striking out less,

1313
01:02:28,280 --> 01:02:30,719
he's walking a little bit more, Like you know, you're

1314
01:02:30,719 --> 01:02:33,239
starting to have a higher comfort level, and the success

1315
01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:34,760
is getting there. He just hits in three of his

1316
01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:36,840
last four games, Like things are starting to click a

1317
01:02:36,840 --> 01:02:39,079
little bit, a little tiny baby bit. I think I'm

1318
01:02:39,119 --> 01:02:40,760
gonna be a little bit of a buy now because

1319
01:02:40,760 --> 01:02:43,480
I think it's so dirt cheap over on the pictures,

1320
01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:48,000
some high percentage pictures that are owned with some interesting

1321
01:02:48,000 --> 01:02:50,800
start show. Hey Tani six innings three and runs nine

1322
01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:56,039
strikeouts against Padres. Maybe Sanchez, maybe Mizzy gets beat around,

1323
01:02:56,039 --> 01:02:59,239
Maybe Otani comes back kind of gets that little MVP.

1324
01:03:00,360 --> 01:03:03,599
I don't know, maybe maybe not. Dylan Ce seven innings,

1325
01:03:03,679 --> 01:03:06,400
zero and runs nine strikeouts against Seattle, Logan Gilbert seven

1326
01:03:06,440 --> 01:03:09,000
to one third zero and runs one hit, seven strike

1327
01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:13,000
cuts against Toronto. I mean, I do have to note that,

1328
01:03:13,119 --> 01:03:16,280
like I as one of the people that was like,

1329
01:03:16,360 --> 01:03:20,599
oh yeah, like I hate this Mariner's situation. They're just

1330
01:03:20,679 --> 01:03:22,320
been good and they're all going seven, you know. I

1331
01:03:22,360 --> 01:03:24,159
just want to point that out, like we're worried about it.

1332
01:03:24,559 --> 01:03:27,679
Logan Gilbert on here, piggybacking is the smartest decision alive.

1333
01:03:27,760 --> 01:03:28,599
Speaker 3: Everybody agrees.

1334
01:03:28,840 --> 01:03:32,159
Speaker 2: Emerson Hancocks seven innings, two hits, five strike cuts against Toronto.

1335
01:03:32,199 --> 01:03:36,159
Luis Casillo six innings two earned four strike cuts against Toronto.

1336
01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:38,199
Speaker 3: Like other and they're like, look to avoid this, we

1337
01:03:38,360 --> 01:03:39,840
just all have to be really good.

1338
01:03:40,239 --> 01:03:42,320
Speaker 2: I think They're all looking at Kate Anderson and being like,

1339
01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:44,159
we can't let this go if one of us slips.

1340
01:03:44,239 --> 01:03:45,400
Kate Anderson's coming.

1341
01:03:45,239 --> 01:03:48,559
Speaker 3: Because that dude is like he's having on historically. Want

1342
01:03:48,559 --> 01:03:50,480
to add him into the rotation for God's sake.

1343
01:03:50,519 --> 01:03:52,639
Speaker 2: You can't do you have a seven in rotation? Yes,

1344
01:03:52,719 --> 01:03:53,840
have a rotation issue.

1345
01:03:54,719 --> 01:03:58,280
Speaker 3: Okay, well do the piggybacking in the playoffs? Man seven

1346
01:03:58,400 --> 01:04:00,079
is fine traits.

1347
01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:03,079
Speaker 2: And like, go make a blockbuster trade build up this team,

1348
01:04:03,159 --> 01:04:06,079
Like are you gonna be I'm not saying to do this,

1349
01:04:06,599 --> 01:04:09,599
but like you know that you may have a huge

1350
01:04:09,719 --> 01:04:12,000
trade if you traded George Kirby, and like, have you

1351
01:04:12,079 --> 01:04:15,079
made your team that much worse? Like, okay, you lose

1352
01:04:15,119 --> 01:04:16,800
the depth of a guy you've counted on. But if

1353
01:04:16,840 --> 01:04:21,239
now it's like Gilbert and Hancock and uh Luis Castillo

1354
01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:23,440
and Bryce Miller and you put in Kate Anderson, Like

1355
01:04:23,519 --> 01:04:26,280
I know that, I know I understand the susceptibility there,

1356
01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:30,039
but like, what if you could massively imp Yeah, that's

1357
01:04:30,079 --> 01:04:32,320
what I'm saying, Like what if they could get an

1358
01:04:32,719 --> 01:04:35,360
elite bullpen piece or an elite bat that might be.

1359
01:04:35,320 --> 01:04:38,079
Speaker 3: Available, I catcher that can hit that would be nice

1360
01:04:38,199 --> 01:04:38,639
right now.

1361
01:04:38,800 --> 01:04:40,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, but maybe you know, it's like they go out

1362
01:04:40,599 --> 01:04:42,280
and they get I mean, maybe they just feel that

1363
01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:44,559
they don't have those needs. But what if there's a

1364
01:04:44,599 --> 01:04:47,000
third baseman, you know, or whatever that they could lock

1365
01:04:47,039 --> 01:04:49,480
in Brendan Donovan didn't work out, and they could solidify

1366
01:04:49,559 --> 01:04:52,320
that offense and then maybe they could get another pitching

1367
01:04:52,360 --> 01:04:55,360
piece for depth. I mean, trading at that level is weird,

1368
01:04:55,400 --> 01:04:59,239
but that team, that team is so stacked it's insane,

1369
01:04:59,280 --> 01:05:01,159
and you've got to a lead pitching prospects. I mean,

1370
01:05:01,159 --> 01:05:04,360
what Kate Anderson's doing in the minors, it's like unheard of.

1371
01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:07,880
But it is tough to trade when you're in a

1372
01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:11,400
race a picture that consistently can go out seven. I

1373
01:05:11,480 --> 01:05:14,239
understand that, but it's a it's a glut of riches.

1374
01:05:14,679 --> 01:05:18,880
Yamamoto Struck got ten padres and seven innings, nowhere runs,

1375
01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:21,400
had a couple walks. Joe Ryan continues to be freaking

1376
01:05:21,440 --> 01:05:24,559
good dude. Seven innings, nine strikeouts against the Yankees. Jesus,

1377
01:05:24,960 --> 01:05:27,920
he's just Lozardo had the good road game six innings,

1378
01:05:28,039 --> 01:05:31,320
nine strikeouts against the Royals. Sunny Gray continues to make

1379
01:05:31,360 --> 01:05:34,119
a huge case for one of the trade assets. Six innings,

1380
01:05:34,119 --> 01:05:36,960
one and run, two walks, seven strikeouts against the Angels.

1381
01:05:37,320 --> 01:05:40,840
Another I just know how they would trade him. Sandie

1382
01:05:40,880 --> 01:05:43,320
O Contra eight innings, one and run, eight strikeouts. I'm

1383
01:05:43,360 --> 01:05:46,360
fascinated by him because we had heard all year long

1384
01:05:46,400 --> 01:05:48,320
about how like this is the year they trade him.

1385
01:05:48,320 --> 01:05:50,760
This is a year they trade him. If we're going

1386
01:05:50,840 --> 01:05:53,599
to buy that load of bolt crap that they're selling us,

1387
01:05:53,599 --> 01:05:56,039
so they got to keep your healthy and we're competing

1388
01:05:56,079 --> 01:05:57,639
and da da da, then you guys need to go

1389
01:05:57,679 --> 01:05:59,880
be buyers. You need not sell anything. You should be

1390
01:06:00,039 --> 01:06:02,719
out there buying pieces. If you're going to sell us

1391
01:06:02,719 --> 01:06:05,119
on this story, why he can't go to a perfect

1392
01:06:05,159 --> 01:06:07,960
game because you guys are such winners, then go get

1393
01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:11,400
some pieces and Sandy can't be a trade asset. And

1394
01:06:12,360 --> 01:06:14,800
he helped his cause. But at the same time, eight innings,

1395
01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:17,119
eight strikeouts, how do you justifiably get that off your

1396
01:06:17,159 --> 01:06:19,079
team if you're winners?

1397
01:06:19,480 --> 01:06:22,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, So I think you're right. You can't

1398
01:06:22,599 --> 01:06:23,239
trade him right.

1399
01:06:23,119 --> 01:06:26,239
Speaker 2: Now, can't damn it. Kyle Bradish seven to two thirds,

1400
01:06:26,239 --> 01:06:28,719
five strikeouts against the Reds. Tray Ya Savage had seven

1401
01:06:28,760 --> 01:06:31,480
strike cuts against Seattle. Michael King I know Joe's been

1402
01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:33,280
a big fader of him. He kind of keeps rolling.

1403
01:06:33,320 --> 01:06:36,760
Six innings, five strikeouts against the Dodgers under ninety percent braxs,

1404
01:06:36,800 --> 01:06:39,079
and Ashcraft a good bounce back five and two thirds

1405
01:06:39,079 --> 01:06:41,920
seven strikeouts against Washington Boggs he had. I think he

1406
01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:44,480
got beat up in that last one, and I think

1407
01:06:44,559 --> 01:06:47,199
the attention may have come off of him a little bit.

1408
01:06:47,199 --> 01:06:49,000
I don't know if you had any thoughts on Ashcraft.

1409
01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:51,480
Speaker 3: I just don't think too much has come off. I

1410
01:06:51,519 --> 01:06:55,880
think that like when you bring up underrated starters in baseball,

1411
01:06:55,880 --> 01:06:57,719
I think his name is like one of the top

1412
01:06:58,119 --> 01:07:01,000
at the list every single time. So I don't think

1413
01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:03,320
too much wore off. You're right, he gave up five

1414
01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:07,719
in that start before he gave up six on June six,

1415
01:07:07,880 --> 01:07:10,920
so it's been a little more acquaint about once a month.

1416
01:07:11,119 --> 01:07:13,840
Speaker 2: He gave up four on May fifteenth, and then like

1417
01:07:13,840 --> 01:07:15,320
he's good for one month.

1418
01:07:15,639 --> 01:07:16,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, he does.

1419
01:07:16,320 --> 01:07:18,480
Speaker 2: He kind of he ses the bed once a month,

1420
01:07:18,559 --> 01:07:20,679
So just know your July one is going to be

1421
01:07:20,719 --> 01:07:21,719
in like a couple starts.

1422
01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:22,719
Speaker 3: But we still love him.

1423
01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:26,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, dude's getting out two hundred plus strikeouts that he's

1424
01:07:26,000 --> 01:07:28,199
at like he's having eight season, one hundred and twenty

1425
01:07:28,239 --> 01:07:29,960
two strikeouts, like phenomenal year.

1426
01:07:30,039 --> 01:07:30,280
Speaker 3: Love it.

1427
01:07:30,320 --> 01:07:33,840
Speaker 2: If there's any buying opportunity, I I'm like rolling with him.

1428
01:07:34,360 --> 01:07:37,199
I mentioned Hancock was with Nicolodolo's six innings, wondering and run

1429
01:07:37,199 --> 01:07:41,239
against Baltimore and Ward Rodriguez all Star Rodrigaz six innings,

1430
01:07:41,239 --> 01:07:44,360
two and runs, no walks, three strikeouts. Would you've ever

1431
01:07:44,400 --> 01:07:45,639
believed with how bad it?

1432
01:07:46,119 --> 01:07:49,760
Speaker 3: I said, like an idiot. When he beat the USA

1433
01:07:49,800 --> 01:07:52,719
in the World Baseball Classic and just looked untouchable. I'm like, well,

1434
01:07:52,800 --> 01:07:54,559
he's going to give up eight in his first start

1435
01:07:54,599 --> 01:07:58,719
for the Backs to be terrible. I was been rock solid.

1436
01:07:58,760 --> 01:08:00,679
There was like a little stretch of made two starts

1437
01:08:00,719 --> 01:08:03,760
where it's like maybe rod starting back into a pumpkin.

1438
01:08:04,119 --> 01:08:06,679
But then like the last four I think three or

1439
01:08:06,719 --> 01:08:08,920
four in a row have been amazing for him. Again,

1440
01:08:09,039 --> 01:08:10,679
he's just he keeps smelling him down.

1441
01:08:11,639 --> 01:08:13,719
Speaker 2: There's no reason to ever believe in it, and it's

1442
01:08:13,800 --> 01:08:15,239
just changing, you know. I want to look real quick,

1443
01:08:15,280 --> 01:08:17,800
what's the thing that's changed with him. I think it's

1444
01:08:17,800 --> 01:08:20,640
obviously been his command. I I'm not gonna even look

1445
01:08:20,680 --> 01:08:23,720
at that here, but eight percent walk grate. Looks like

1446
01:08:23,760 --> 01:08:27,399
he stopped trying to strike guys out. Four seam is

1447
01:08:27,399 --> 01:08:30,319
the same. He's starting to change up a lot more.

1448
01:08:31,199 --> 01:08:33,560
And that thing they are not hitting the dude, he

1449
01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:35,960
had a three hundred average against it last year. It

1450
01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:38,319
looks like he deadened it a little bit. It's got

1451
01:08:38,479 --> 01:08:39,439
less spin.

1452
01:08:40,119 --> 01:08:43,199
Speaker 3: It's got lotion. Dude, you mentioned it before. You don't

1453
01:08:43,239 --> 01:08:45,039
need to look it up. But it's one oh nine

1454
01:08:45,279 --> 01:08:48,439
this year it was plus. Well, kJ Bluss is one

1455
01:08:48,479 --> 01:08:50,960
oh nine. Last year was one hundred one two, one

1456
01:08:51,399 --> 01:08:54,319
ninety seven. The best it's ever been was his rookie

1457
01:08:54,359 --> 01:08:57,399
season at one oh seven, and this is better one.

1458
01:08:57,680 --> 01:09:00,840
What is his stuff plus is ninety one? His pitching

1459
01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:04,159
plus is one oh two this year. Yeah, he's just

1460
01:09:04,239 --> 01:09:06,800
well the change up. What's the change up? Because the

1461
01:09:06,880 --> 01:09:09,960
change ups are always historically bad on stuff? But what

1462
01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:11,680
was last year to this year? Because he got the

1463
01:09:12,039 --> 01:09:14,840
changeup got beat around last year. Not that much different

1464
01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:16,640
as ninety three last year, ninety five this year?

1465
01:09:16,960 --> 01:09:19,880
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, I mean it's just purely location because he's

1466
01:09:19,920 --> 01:09:23,800
not he is doing his curveball. It's thirteen percent, which

1467
01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:27,239
it's essentially looks like I'm just trying to do this

1468
01:09:27,279 --> 01:09:30,800
in real time here. Yeah, you know the real adjustment

1469
01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:33,159
is he just this added curveball. He threw at four

1470
01:09:33,159 --> 01:09:37,239
percent last year, it's thirteen percent this year, it looks,

1471
01:09:37,319 --> 01:09:39,279
and he's starting the changeup more. Maybe it's making the

1472
01:09:39,359 --> 01:09:42,039
change up more effective because he's locating stuff. I mean

1473
01:09:42,039 --> 01:09:44,479
that those are the easy answers. But what's weird. I

1474
01:09:44,479 --> 01:09:47,520
guess what I get at is what's weird about it

1475
01:09:47,560 --> 01:09:50,399
is I really never pinpointed him as a guy that

1476
01:09:50,760 --> 01:09:52,600
just needed location to fix things.

1477
01:09:52,640 --> 01:09:52,960
Speaker 3: That's it.

1478
01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:56,039
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, Well, Yo, look, location is Yeah,

1479
01:09:56,279 --> 01:09:59,319
obviously location is better, but that this wasn't the type

1480
01:09:59,319 --> 01:10:00,680
of guy that it was. Well, if he could just

1481
01:10:00,760 --> 01:10:02,720
locate a little bit better, he'd be so much more efficient.

1482
01:10:02,760 --> 01:10:05,000
You're like, no, everything's pretty average. You can see the

1483
01:10:05,000 --> 01:10:08,079
stuff plus numbers. It's all average across the board. People

1484
01:10:08,159 --> 01:10:11,720
actually making more zone contact against him right now, dude,

1485
01:10:11,760 --> 01:10:12,840
but it's not working.

1486
01:10:13,439 --> 01:10:15,279
Speaker 3: The most runs he went up in a game this

1487
01:10:15,359 --> 01:10:20,000
year is four. Eve up four at Baltimore on April fifteenth.

1488
01:10:20,359 --> 01:10:23,000
On April twenty second, he also gave up four against

1489
01:10:23,079 --> 01:10:26,039
the White Sox through five innings. In both those games

1490
01:10:26,239 --> 01:10:29,119
gave up four and six and a third against Washington

1491
01:10:29,680 --> 01:10:32,479
is really weird. One was when he walked five and

1492
01:10:32,520 --> 01:10:34,399
struck out three and it could only get out of

1493
01:10:34,399 --> 01:10:37,159
two and two thirds. But even in that game when

1494
01:10:37,199 --> 01:10:39,920
he just had nothing, he only gave up two runs,

1495
01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:42,720
one earned. There was an error in there too. So

1496
01:10:43,840 --> 01:10:46,039
it's been almost every start he rot has been great.

1497
01:10:46,319 --> 01:10:50,520
So I would very weird expected to continue until further

1498
01:10:50,640 --> 01:10:51,640
notice as long.

1499
01:10:51,520 --> 01:10:53,920
Speaker 2: As he's locating. Yeah, I mean you do worry, like

1500
01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:55,880
as the season goes on a little bit further he

1501
01:10:55,920 --> 01:10:58,560
could tie. You're out? Sure, Sure, I think he's on

1502
01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:00,560
the I think at least one more year year on

1503
01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:02,560
his contract. He could be a trade candidate when when

1504
01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:05,680
the Diebacks inevitably sell, which they should. He's been so

1505
01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:10,640
good and I think the what's owed to him isn't

1506
01:11:10,680 --> 01:11:12,960
as dramatic anymore. I could be wrong about my miss.

1507
01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:14,800
Is it twenty mil next year?

1508
01:11:15,359 --> 01:11:18,520
Speaker 3: It's it's just I think it's average is twenty because

1509
01:11:18,520 --> 01:11:20,560
it's four years eighty, but I don't know. It doesn't

1510
01:11:20,560 --> 01:11:22,840
show the digraphs how it pays off.

1511
01:11:23,000 --> 01:11:26,880
Speaker 2: Just it ends and it ends after next year. Yes, okay,

1512
01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:29,000
so yeah, that's what I thought, so it's you know,

1513
01:11:29,159 --> 01:11:31,880
ten million pro rated this year, twenty million next year.

1514
01:11:32,159 --> 01:11:36,439
If the Diamondbacks could send ten million dollars in that

1515
01:11:36,520 --> 01:11:38,680
deal and maybe get you know, you get a prospect

1516
01:11:38,680 --> 01:11:41,199
back and you send them ten million dollars that covers

1517
01:11:41,239 --> 01:11:43,319
this year, and then you've got him. I just think

1518
01:11:43,319 --> 01:11:47,119
he could be a trade piece at this point and

1519
01:11:47,159 --> 01:11:48,840
that there's a lot of scenarios where this could be

1520
01:11:48,880 --> 01:11:51,960
a good thing if he wanted to be what if it, Well,

1521
01:11:53,239 --> 01:11:56,159
they are, we know, but they need to decide that

1522
01:11:56,199 --> 01:12:01,039
they are like flirting with five hundred. And it looks

1523
01:12:01,079 --> 01:12:03,479
like there's like a mutual option as well on the

1524
01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:04,600
year before he's.

1525
01:12:04,479 --> 01:12:08,520
Speaker 3: Got option if he hits some type of inning pitch threshold.

1526
01:12:08,520 --> 01:12:09,399
But I don't know what it is.

1527
01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:11,800
Speaker 2: I wish this would tell me this because apparently he

1528
01:12:11,880 --> 01:12:14,159
has a ten team no trade clause, and I was

1529
01:12:14,199 --> 01:12:17,159
about to say, like the Breeds kind of jump out

1530
01:12:17,159 --> 01:12:19,520
to me as a team that would be so his

1531
01:12:19,760 --> 01:12:22,520
is actually he's a nineteen million dollars is next year

1532
01:12:22,560 --> 01:12:24,920
is what the money would be, And it's twenty one

1533
01:12:24,960 --> 01:12:25,279
this year.

1534
01:12:25,439 --> 01:12:28,439
Speaker 3: So you know, who was it whose wife refused to

1535
01:12:28,520 --> 01:12:32,199
move to certain sport that wasn't okay, it was LA.

1536
01:12:32,640 --> 01:12:34,680
I think that's why he has those ten teams.

1537
01:12:34,760 --> 01:12:36,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he wanted to like he didn't want to

1538
01:12:36,720 --> 01:12:38,600
be traded when he was like a tiger to La,

1539
01:12:39,199 --> 01:12:41,279
they wanted to stay there. And then he came to

1540
01:12:41,319 --> 01:12:43,319
the Diamondback. So it was yeah, something with his wife

1541
01:12:43,359 --> 01:12:46,800
or whatever. So I don't know he saw. Yeah, Casey

1542
01:12:46,880 --> 01:12:49,720
my six to two thirds four strikeouts against Texas, Nick

1543
01:12:49,760 --> 01:12:52,319
Martinez five and one third three strikeouts. He continues to

1544
01:12:52,359 --> 01:12:55,920
be good. Sean Burke had eleven strikeout performance against Cleveland

1545
01:12:55,920 --> 01:12:59,159
and Jack Flaherty five and two thirds five strikeouts. That

1546
01:12:59,319 --> 01:13:02,079
is our fifty percent and up, so very highly owned.

1547
01:13:02,119 --> 01:13:04,479
These are some guys that are under fifty percent, and

1548
01:13:04,640 --> 01:13:06,800
my surprise you. Aaron Nola is under fifty percent now

1549
01:13:06,800 --> 01:13:09,399
forty eight percent. Seven innings, seven hits, three and runs

1550
01:13:09,439 --> 01:13:13,039
seven strikeouts against the Kansas City Royals. Spencer Arraghetty is

1551
01:13:13,079 --> 01:13:16,800
at forty three percent. Six innings, four strike cuts against Tampa.

1552
01:13:17,199 --> 01:13:19,479
Jake Bennett a little bit of swag seven and two

1553
01:13:19,479 --> 01:13:22,239
thirds six strikeouts has looked really good as of recent

1554
01:13:22,960 --> 01:13:26,079
Meryl Kelly five innings tour and runs, six strikeouts against Milwaukee,

1555
01:13:26,159 --> 01:13:29,239
and then Pete Lambert five and two thirds six strikeouts

1556
01:13:29,239 --> 01:13:31,640
against Tampa. The reason I mentioned all those guys, they're

1557
01:13:31,640 --> 01:13:35,520
between thirty five and forty eight percent probably more ten

1558
01:13:35,560 --> 01:13:40,199
team available, maybe slightly. Guys are dropping around in twelve

1559
01:13:40,199 --> 01:13:42,800
teams with small benches. If you had to pick two

1560
01:13:42,840 --> 01:13:44,800
guys that you want to bank on rest of season,

1561
01:13:45,000 --> 01:13:46,920
obviously Nola's at the top. That's a fin aanswer. But

1562
01:13:46,960 --> 01:13:50,279
Nola Arraghetty, Jake Bennett, Merrill Kelly, and Pete Lambert.

1563
01:13:51,199 --> 01:13:53,439
Speaker 3: I mean, the only one I feel real positive about

1564
01:13:53,560 --> 01:13:56,840
is Jake Bennett. Right, like three quality starts in a

1565
01:13:56,920 --> 01:13:59,279
row for him. We know that the Red Sox are trading,

1566
01:13:59,319 --> 01:14:02,000
so he's going to keep his rotation spot. He's been great,

1567
01:14:02,199 --> 01:14:04,359
So I think Jake Bennett is the one that I

1568
01:14:04,399 --> 01:14:06,920
really want over way over the rest of them.

1569
01:14:07,279 --> 01:14:08,920
Speaker 2: You don't have a second one because I would say.

1570
01:14:08,840 --> 01:14:13,079
Speaker 3: There, Getty's been turned into a pumpkin. I don't trust Yeah,

1571
01:14:13,159 --> 01:14:15,159
Nola's fine, I don't know that I trust him after

1572
01:14:15,199 --> 01:14:19,399
his rocky start, Meryl Socks, Lambert is Lambert's been good.

1573
01:14:19,720 --> 01:14:21,680
I get I probably should give a little more credit

1574
01:14:21,720 --> 01:14:24,680
to Pete Lambert, but I don't know. It's just not

1575
01:14:24,760 --> 01:14:27,199
my guy. So Jake Bennett look great, that's the guy

1576
01:14:27,279 --> 01:14:29,119
that I want out of this group. Biolog Yeah, yeah,

1577
01:14:29,119 --> 01:14:29,600
he's the dude.

1578
01:14:29,640 --> 01:14:31,119
Speaker 2: But Bennett and Nola would be the two I would

1579
01:14:31,119 --> 01:14:35,079
pick under I mean under twelve percent, essentially. Kyle Lahey

1580
01:14:35,239 --> 01:14:38,840
five innings, six strikeouts, Zach Lyttel six innings, three strikeouts

1581
01:14:38,840 --> 01:14:41,720
against Pittsburgh. JP Sears is on the list. Ryan felt there,

1582
01:14:41,760 --> 01:14:44,159
Mason England, is there anybody in here that I don't

1583
01:14:44,199 --> 01:14:45,920
want any of these guys under any I don't even

1584
01:14:45,920 --> 01:14:47,319
want to really stream them, to be honest with you,

1585
01:14:47,359 --> 01:14:50,279
even though these were good performances. JP Sears five innings,

1586
01:14:50,279 --> 01:14:53,359
one hit against the Dodgers is like no joke. But

1587
01:14:53,439 --> 01:14:55,119
I don't trust these guys as streamers.

1588
01:14:55,439 --> 01:14:58,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, Layy has had has been good, but I think

1589
01:14:58,000 --> 01:15:00,000
he had to blow up recently. But I tell you

1590
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:04,800
so what. Feldner has just been good, but he's not dependent.

1591
01:15:04,880 --> 01:15:07,159
Like he had nine strikeouts in this game against the Giants.

1592
01:15:07,279 --> 01:15:10,840
He had zero against the Twins, but he only gave

1593
01:15:10,960 --> 01:15:13,399
up one earned over six, gave up two or earned

1594
01:15:13,399 --> 01:15:17,640
over six against Boston. He's been on this list like

1595
01:15:18,479 --> 01:15:21,479
four or five times. In the last couple months, so

1596
01:15:22,520 --> 01:15:25,760
he's interesting if you're like really desperate or really need

1597
01:15:25,760 --> 01:15:27,399
that extra start at the end of the week, and

1598
01:15:27,399 --> 01:15:29,560
maybe they're playing on the road or something so you

1599
01:15:29,600 --> 01:15:32,199
don't have to play him in Colorado. Let me just

1600
01:15:32,239 --> 01:15:34,680
look at his splits real quick to see what his

1601
01:15:34,760 --> 01:15:37,920
home road difference is. Home is Era is four to

1602
01:15:37,960 --> 01:15:41,000
one four away is thera is four or five eight.

1603
01:15:41,159 --> 01:15:44,279
But interestingly enough, forty one and a third innings at

1604
01:15:44,319 --> 01:15:46,439
home and only seventeen and two thirds on the road.

1605
01:15:46,960 --> 01:15:50,680
So if Feldner has a road start and you're desperate

1606
01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:53,199
for somebody out of this group, that would be my guy.

1607
01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:54,800
Some poop starts.

1608
01:15:54,840 --> 01:15:58,520
Speaker 2: I wonder if there's any concern here. Logan Gilbert three innings,

1609
01:15:58,560 --> 01:16:03,279
seven earned runs, two strikeouts, Logan Web, Logan, I'm sorry, yeah,

1610
01:16:03,279 --> 01:16:07,640
Logan Webb. Who'd I say, Logan Logan Gilbert, Logan Gilbert mariners,

1611
01:16:09,119 --> 01:16:13,439
seven and runs, two strikeouts, who walks at Colorado? Don't

1612
01:16:13,479 --> 01:16:15,920
kid he had yeah, because he had been good. I

1613
01:16:16,000 --> 01:16:19,560
just wondered if this reactivated early season scares of Logan

1614
01:16:19,600 --> 01:16:22,119
Web for you at all, because like things had turned

1615
01:16:22,119 --> 01:16:24,399
around once he got back looked good and then he

1616
01:16:24,479 --> 01:16:27,159
got I mean he got jiggled.

1617
01:16:27,640 --> 01:16:29,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, he got jiggled. I'm not worried about it. That's

1618
01:16:29,920 --> 01:16:34,159
a at Colorado weird start. I'm gonna choose to ignore

1619
01:16:34,199 --> 01:16:36,760
this and if he's bad in the future, I'll pay

1620
01:16:36,760 --> 01:16:38,760
the piper. But not now, Okay.

1621
01:16:38,880 --> 01:16:42,840
Speaker 2: Hunter Brown four innings, seven earned runs, four walks to

1622
01:16:42,960 --> 01:16:46,520
just three strikeouts against the Tampa Bay Rays. He's now

1623
01:16:46,600 --> 01:16:49,960
got a three three eight ERA good strikeout rate but

1624
01:16:50,039 --> 01:16:53,159
over thirteen percent walk rate. He has not had a

1625
01:16:53,359 --> 01:16:57,239
single start this year where he has walked one or less.

1626
01:16:57,359 --> 01:17:00,359
It is two plus every singing starts. As a year,

1627
01:17:01,039 --> 01:17:04,479
he has six, so it has been it's a little

1628
01:17:04,560 --> 01:17:06,319
scattered because he had two at the beginning of the year.

1629
01:17:06,359 --> 01:17:09,359
Out for a long time, but since returning he has

1630
01:17:09,399 --> 01:17:12,920
had four starts like in a row. A couple have

1631
01:17:12,920 --> 01:17:14,239
been good. I mean, I don't want to say they'd

1632
01:17:14,239 --> 01:17:17,479
been bad or anything like that. Six innings, tour and runs,

1633
01:17:17,479 --> 01:17:21,079
four strikeouts, five and two thirds won seven strikeouts, but

1634
01:17:21,079 --> 01:17:23,479
there's a lot of walks in there. This one kind

1635
01:17:23,479 --> 01:17:25,079
of came to a head. He got beat up a

1636
01:17:25,159 --> 01:17:28,640
little bit. It looks okay, but Joe had some serious

1637
01:17:28,640 --> 01:17:32,119
concerns about Hunter Brown even into the selling market. What's

1638
01:17:32,119 --> 01:17:33,000
your level of concern.

1639
01:17:34,039 --> 01:17:36,199
Speaker 3: I think I would rather buy for the second half.

1640
01:17:36,319 --> 01:17:39,079
Like the injuries behind him, He's gonna get a couple

1641
01:17:39,479 --> 01:17:42,319
of these wishy washy starts out of the way and

1642
01:17:42,399 --> 01:17:44,479
probably be good for the second half. So I think

1643
01:17:44,479 --> 01:17:47,880
I'm okay with Hunter Brown moving forward. And by the way,

1644
01:17:48,600 --> 01:17:52,479
this bad start yesterday they gave away his bobblehead, which

1645
01:17:52,479 --> 01:17:56,199
is kind of funny. No, it wasn't on his bobblehead day.

1646
01:17:56,239 --> 01:17:59,039
He had this terrible start and next day, Oh okay.

1647
01:17:59,079 --> 01:18:00,199
I was like, wait, did you get it?

1648
01:18:00,359 --> 01:18:00,880
Speaker 2: Was that yours?

1649
01:18:00,880 --> 01:18:02,159
Speaker 3: I did? I did? I did get it?

1650
01:18:02,279 --> 01:18:04,239
Speaker 2: Oh you got a hundred Brown Ball ahead.

1651
01:18:04,159 --> 01:18:05,239
Speaker 3: Nyes, I got one yesterday.

1652
01:18:05,560 --> 01:18:06,199
Speaker 2: Look at you?

1653
01:18:06,239 --> 01:18:06,680
Speaker 3: Too bad?

1654
01:18:06,720 --> 01:18:10,720
Speaker 2: It wasn't a an anime card that you could have

1655
01:18:10,760 --> 01:18:12,239
sold for fifteen hundred dollars.

1656
01:18:12,680 --> 01:18:14,960
Speaker 3: Yeah. Did you see those people fighting over it at

1657
01:18:15,279 --> 01:18:15,960
Dodger Stadium?

1658
01:18:16,039 --> 01:18:18,560
Speaker 2: My god, honestly fighting. But I saw people were getting him,

1659
01:18:18,560 --> 01:18:20,760
and then there were scalpers there that were walking around

1660
01:18:20,800 --> 01:18:22,960
and they were paying anywhere from two hundred to like

1661
01:18:23,039 --> 01:18:25,720
eight hundred dollars for the card on the spot, and

1662
01:18:25,720 --> 01:18:27,640
then people are putting them on eBay. For like twelve

1663
01:18:27,720 --> 01:18:30,199
hundred and thirteen. Can you imagine just going to the game,

1664
01:18:30,520 --> 01:18:32,279
getting a couple of those and then you just like

1665
01:18:32,319 --> 01:18:33,800
went to the game and then you walked out like

1666
01:18:34,039 --> 01:18:36,720
you know, one thousand dollars because people wanted a couple.

1667
01:18:36,760 --> 01:18:37,600
Speaker 3: That's like job.

1668
01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:41,319
Speaker 2: That world is crazy to me. So you people lines

1669
01:18:41,359 --> 01:18:44,199
down the road, I know, it's just crazy. Tanne Bybee

1670
01:18:44,239 --> 01:18:46,800
four innings, six earned runs, only one strike at against

1671
01:18:46,840 --> 01:18:49,640
White Sox. He's been pretty dicey. I'm my interest is

1672
01:18:49,680 --> 01:18:53,680
pretty minimal. Gauge Jump though Gage Jump had been great.

1673
01:18:53,880 --> 01:18:57,560
Went three innings, six earned runs, three walks, one strike

1674
01:18:57,600 --> 01:18:58,520
out against Miami.

1675
01:18:58,880 --> 01:19:00,560
Speaker 3: But I believe it's the couple.

1676
01:19:00,560 --> 01:19:03,560
Speaker 2: He's had a couple big bumps in the road here.

1677
01:19:03,560 --> 01:19:06,520
He's still got a three seven seven ERA. But yeah,

1678
01:19:06,520 --> 01:19:08,760
his last start was four and two thirds against the Dodgers,

1679
01:19:08,840 --> 01:19:11,760
five earned runs, and then this is three innings, five

1680
01:19:11,760 --> 01:19:16,720
earned runs. He has three walks to six strikeouts between

1681
01:19:16,720 --> 01:19:20,920
those two starts. Do you have less confidence engaged Jump

1682
01:19:20,960 --> 01:19:23,760
moving forward? Or is this just the bad patch? No?

1683
01:19:24,039 --> 01:19:26,319
Speaker 3: I think you know, like if you're in a daily

1684
01:19:26,439 --> 01:19:28,359
and you don't want to start him in his next start,

1685
01:19:28,399 --> 01:19:30,119
like before the break or something because you think he's

1686
01:19:30,279 --> 01:19:33,479
hitting a rough patch. I'm okay with that. I think

1687
01:19:33,520 --> 01:19:35,319
I just want to see what his first couple starts

1688
01:19:35,319 --> 01:19:37,079
to look like after the break, because maybe he's just

1689
01:19:37,119 --> 01:19:40,159
getting tired, you know, and he needs the break and

1690
01:19:40,199 --> 01:19:41,960
he's gonna get it, so there's gonna be a nice

1691
01:19:41,960 --> 01:19:45,399
break for him here. So not too worried, but I

1692
01:19:45,439 --> 01:19:48,079
am like he's on the radar. He's on the worry radar,

1693
01:19:48,319 --> 01:19:50,880
but I'm not worried. If that makes I.

1694
01:19:51,960 --> 01:19:53,680
Speaker 2: Think it's a good way to put I'm gonna join

1695
01:19:53,720 --> 01:19:55,760
you in that, like I'm paying attention to it. But

1696
01:19:55,760 --> 01:19:57,279
I'm gonna still roll out because I think he can

1697
01:19:57,279 --> 01:19:59,439
bounce right back out of this and go deep into games.

1698
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:02,720
But his lack of high end strikeouts it's a little

1699
01:20:02,760 --> 01:20:04,560
bit of a concern. And if he's going to be

1700
01:20:04,560 --> 01:20:06,119
pitched into this type of contact, we'll see.

1701
01:20:06,119 --> 01:20:08,000
Speaker 3: But maybe if you're gonna suck, you can at least

1702
01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:09,359
get us some damn strikeouts.

1703
01:20:09,399 --> 01:20:12,880
Speaker 2: Please, Yeah, thank you. Shane Bieber stinks. Four inning, seven strikeouts.

1704
01:20:13,039 --> 01:20:15,840
There you go, and David Peterson got obliterated for tender

1705
01:20:15,880 --> 01:20:19,520
and runs, so yeah, it was great. There were no

1706
01:20:19,680 --> 01:20:22,159
closer blown saves, but there were some non closer saves.

1707
01:20:22,199 --> 01:20:24,760
Kyder Montero ended up getting a three inning save. Will

1708
01:20:24,840 --> 01:20:27,319
Klein got one after Tanner Scott had pitched back to back,

1709
01:20:27,359 --> 01:20:33,079
and Sean Newcomb picked up one after I forgot his

1710
01:20:33,079 --> 01:20:35,880
first name. Grand Taylor pitched the night before.

1711
01:20:36,000 --> 01:20:39,720
Speaker 3: So are you at all because didn't you mention Newcomb earlier?

1712
01:20:39,800 --> 01:20:42,640
Are you all interested in Newcom like maybe just even

1713
01:20:42,680 --> 01:20:44,760
if he's not getting saved, just helping your er if

1714
01:20:44,800 --> 01:20:46,239
you have actually bullpen spots.

1715
01:20:46,439 --> 01:20:48,479
Speaker 2: What I had mentioned though, is actually when you looked

1716
01:20:48,479 --> 01:20:53,720
at run values, his fastball was like it was absurd.

1717
01:20:53,800 --> 01:20:56,960
It's like one of the best fastballs in baseball. When

1718
01:20:57,000 --> 01:20:58,880
you just singulate, I'm trying to see if I could

1719
01:20:58,880 --> 01:21:01,600
even like find it right now. I don't think I'm

1720
01:21:01,600 --> 01:21:03,600
gonna be able to do it really quick. But when

1721
01:21:03,600 --> 01:21:06,520
I was just going, I was going, like, pitch value

1722
01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:10,600
to pitch type, he has like this insane valued fastball

1723
01:21:10,640 --> 01:21:13,079
this year. That to me, what that reads off is like, well,

1724
01:21:13,119 --> 01:21:15,840
this is a guy they could absolutely trust in the

1725
01:21:16,479 --> 01:21:20,239
in a closing spot. And I just don't think they're

1726
01:21:20,239 --> 01:21:22,119
gonna come off of grand Taylor though. I think like

1727
01:21:22,159 --> 01:21:24,319
none of these guys mean much to me. I mean,

1728
01:21:24,359 --> 01:21:26,479
Will Klein is always interesting, especially if he could be like,

1729
01:21:26,520 --> 01:21:29,359
you know, anywhere else because Edwin Diaz is gonna come back.

1730
01:21:29,399 --> 01:21:34,319
He's gonna bump everybody in there. Montero, that's a singular situation. Nup.

1731
01:21:34,680 --> 01:21:37,840
If the White Sox weren't winning, I would say, like

1732
01:21:38,000 --> 01:21:40,520
Nukem is a prime guy to be traded and then

1733
01:21:40,600 --> 01:21:43,000
maybe could go and like actually pick up saves from

1734
01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:46,039
another spot. But I do think grand Taylor has some

1735
01:21:46,079 --> 01:21:48,159
like nutty stuff. Maybe he just get I think he's

1736
01:21:48,199 --> 01:21:51,319
a source of like random cheap fun saves or something

1737
01:21:51,399 --> 01:21:51,720
like that.

1738
01:21:52,159 --> 01:21:54,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like if you're in a super deep league and

1739
01:21:54,720 --> 01:21:57,479
there's no good starter spots out there, and you have

1740
01:21:57,520 --> 01:22:00,960
a pitching spot that's just eating up, you know, dump

1741
01:22:00,960 --> 01:22:03,399
a star ad sean newcom and just get those good

1742
01:22:03,560 --> 01:22:05,079
ratios and a company.

1743
01:22:05,880 --> 01:22:08,159
Speaker 2: Let's look at this if I can find it. Okay,

1744
01:22:08,199 --> 01:22:13,359
So he is currently now he has the twenty first

1745
01:22:13,840 --> 01:22:17,159
best run value on a four seen fastball, which, by

1746
01:22:17,159 --> 01:22:19,279
the way, the guy right in front of him, kider Montero.

1747
01:22:20,680 --> 01:22:23,119
When you look for relievers, let me look how many

1748
01:22:23,199 --> 01:22:24,399
legitimate relievers are there?

1749
01:22:24,840 --> 01:22:27,880
Speaker 3: Just while you're going through that. Looking at his Yahoo

1750
01:22:27,920 --> 01:22:32,000
like rank and everything, he ranks two three, which isn't

1751
01:22:32,079 --> 01:22:34,359
very high, and he's only two percent roster, but that's

1752
01:22:34,359 --> 01:22:38,560
what zero wins in three saves, fifty one strikeouts, over

1753
01:22:38,600 --> 01:22:40,720
fifty two innings, and two and a half VRA and

1754
01:22:40,880 --> 01:22:43,359
just over one whip. So like, because ratios are just

1755
01:22:43,399 --> 01:22:46,359
really good and he still holds value even not getting

1756
01:22:46,439 --> 01:22:47,239
saves or wins.

1757
01:22:48,359 --> 01:22:50,319
Speaker 2: Let me look at his run value charge. Yeah, and

1758
01:22:50,319 --> 01:22:54,439
by the way, the run value, yeah, I mean it's

1759
01:22:54,439 --> 01:22:58,199
his fastball only. His slurve does have a positive run

1760
01:22:58,279 --> 01:23:02,720
value as well, but the real levers. There's only two

1761
01:23:02,760 --> 01:23:06,159
relievers ahead of him with a higher fastball value rating

1762
01:23:06,239 --> 01:23:08,600
this year, and it is Jacob Latz and Kaider Montero

1763
01:23:09,399 --> 01:23:11,840
or in Michael Peterson, so that's three and Brian King

1764
01:23:11,880 --> 01:23:13,840
that's four. So there's a billion. There's four hundred of

1765
01:23:13,840 --> 01:23:16,319
it head but the rest are starting pitchers. By the way,

1766
01:23:16,560 --> 01:23:19,840
Rodriguez it's ten, he's tenth overall with a ten value.

1767
01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:23,239
But you know, it's the effectiveness of like what that

1768
01:23:23,359 --> 01:23:25,119
pitch has done. It has a one to oh three

1769
01:23:25,159 --> 01:23:28,560
batting average against, It has a thirty six percent wif

1770
01:23:28,560 --> 01:23:31,840
frey This is Sean Newcomb a forty three percent K percentage.

1771
01:23:31,920 --> 01:23:35,319
The expected batting average is one twenty three, and this

1772
01:23:35,560 --> 01:23:36,479
might be correct.

1773
01:23:36,479 --> 01:23:37,239
Speaker 3: This is correct.

1774
01:23:37,680 --> 01:23:41,640
Speaker 2: The lowest hard hit percentage against a four seam fastball

1775
01:23:41,680 --> 01:23:43,840
in baseball belongs to Sean Newcomb.

1776
01:23:44,000 --> 01:23:44,159
Speaker 1: No.

1777
01:23:44,199 --> 01:23:46,920
Speaker 2: One is a twenty percent hard hit rate. So like

1778
01:23:46,960 --> 01:23:50,439
that that pitch has been incredible for him this year.

1779
01:23:50,439 --> 01:23:54,359
And it's not like, you know, he's only pitched four games,

1780
01:23:54,399 --> 01:23:57,159
thirty four games this year. He's a two five eight era,

1781
01:23:57,720 --> 01:24:01,359
you know, twenty four K eight walk Like that's a

1782
01:24:01,399 --> 01:24:04,560
valuable reliever that's floating out there. So I just I

1783
01:24:04,600 --> 01:24:06,600
don't hate it. I don't hate if he got opportunity,

1784
01:24:06,600 --> 01:24:09,319
But it's a weird speculative market, all right. That is it,

1785
01:24:09,920 --> 01:24:12,399
my friends. That is all that we have for you.

1786
01:24:12,479 --> 01:24:14,560
In the next episode, we are going to I forget

1787
01:24:14,560 --> 01:24:16,000
about the second thing we were going to do, Bogs.

1788
01:24:16,039 --> 01:24:17,479
We're going to do two things. We were going to do,

1789
01:24:18,319 --> 01:24:21,239
the kind of valued All Stars and maybe the anti

1790
01:24:21,359 --> 01:24:23,840
All Stars, and then there was something else fun that

1791
01:24:23,880 --> 01:24:25,680
we were going to do, but it's completely escaped my mind.

1792
01:24:25,720 --> 01:24:28,159
So maybe they'll come back. We will also check in

1793
01:24:28,640 --> 01:24:32,159
with the Grim Reapers. Voicemail from yesterday. See what death

1794
01:24:32,159 --> 01:24:35,359
and destruction they have left for us for the episode,

1795
01:24:35,399 --> 01:24:37,359
and that'll take us into the break where you know

1796
01:24:37,439 --> 01:24:39,920
we'll come back. We'll probably have an early week off

1797
01:24:40,000 --> 01:24:42,039
next week as we're waiting for the second half. We

1798
01:24:42,079 --> 01:24:44,600
have our second half draft, which we'll probably be breaking

1799
01:24:44,680 --> 01:24:46,960
down as baseball is going to kick back in. But

1800
01:24:47,000 --> 01:24:49,119
we got an episode later this week, so make sure

1801
01:24:49,119 --> 01:24:52,600

We love you. When you do so, I'll have the

1807
01:25:04,560 --> 01:25:08,079
big update for the MLB Draft. It should be crazy,

1808
01:25:08,319 --> 01:25:11,079
a lot of depth, you know, star power versus like

1809
01:25:11,119 --> 01:25:13,319
what production is going to be there, that's a bigger question.

1810
01:25:13,439 --> 01:25:16,399
But there's going to be lots of fantasy implications, you know,

1811
01:25:16,720 --> 01:25:19,359
because of the implication of where these guys are going

1812
01:25:19,399 --> 01:25:21,000
to be added. So you can check that out on

1813
01:25:21,000 --> 01:25:23,239
my dynasty and my prospect list, which will be updated

1814
01:25:23,239 --> 01:25:25,600

1816
01:25:27,680 --> 01:25:29,800
In this week dot Com. That's it for Bogmann. I'm Welsh.

1817
01:25:29,800 --> 01:25:31,199
We'll talk to you in the next episode.

1818
01:25:31,680 --> 01:25:34,239
Speaker 3: Peace out, oh by for you.
