Speaker 3: I you know, I got I got a bone. I

20
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,480
had a bone to pick with you. Uh A few

21
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:35,200
weeks ago, I forgot, I forgot, I forgot, I forgot.

22
00:01:35,239 --> 00:01:37,879
I had I had issues with with you.

23
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 2: Weeks ago you had issues and yeah, okay, yeah.

24
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 3: Actually I had I had a serious bone to pick

25
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,799
with you, but I totally forgot about it. And then

26
00:01:48,359 --> 00:01:50,079
I just remembered again today, So.

27
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,959
Speaker 4: I gotta I got something that I got something, so

28
00:01:54,120 --> 00:02:01,040
you you, I sounded like both cosby you.

29
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 3: You a few weeks ago you wrote a post where

30
00:02:06,879 --> 00:02:11,240
you said the best time for streaming. I will say too,

31
00:02:11,479 --> 00:02:14,400
it's like the only time you've ever written a post

32
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:18,719
for raspball. So for me to then take issue with

33
00:02:18,759 --> 00:02:24,400
it is you know, it's not the nicest thing of me.

34
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:31,080
But you, I mean, you wrote a post and if

35
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,599
I'm wrong, you correct me. But you wrote a post

36
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,840
about streaming and what were the best months to do

37
00:02:38,439 --> 00:02:42,240
to stream? And you said April was the best month

38
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:47,120
to stream. Correct or not correct sir, I.

39
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,639
Speaker 2: Said that the data tends to indicate that early in

40
00:02:49,719 --> 00:02:50,240
the season.

41
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,919
Speaker 3: Please stick to the question as posed to you. Okay,

42
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,120
so you say April is the best month to stream

43
00:03:01,599 --> 00:03:06,199
early in the season. So my question to you, sir,

44
00:03:06,879 --> 00:03:12,080
is how do you know who to stream in April?

45
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,719
Because see my problem is, see this is why I

46
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,800
like this. I prefer to stream in like August September,

47
00:03:19,039 --> 00:03:22,000
because by that point, you know what teams are good,

48
00:03:22,159 --> 00:03:24,759
you know what teams are bad, you know which pictures

49
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,759
are good, you know which pictures are bad. In April,

50
00:03:28,039 --> 00:03:31,680
you're like, oh, well, coming into the season, looks like

51
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,000
the Red Sox are pretty good. I'm not going to

52
00:03:34,039 --> 00:03:38,120
stream against them. And then suddenly they're under four hundred

53
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,240
record is like, oh they're awful. What am I doing?

54
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,840
I should stream against them? But you have no idea

55
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:48,360
in April, whereas in August September you have a better idea.

56
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,520
So what do you say to that, good sir?

57
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 1: Streaming everybody except for the Dodgers and at Yankee Stadium.

58
00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, then that's pretty much.

59
00:04:00,439 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 1: And if you're concerned about it, you know, stick to

60
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:08,560
guys at home rather than on the road. Okay, always pluses,

61
00:04:08,599 --> 00:04:11,800
you know, always good splits are always there. The dad

62
00:04:11,919 --> 00:04:14,639
is there to say, you know, at home is always

63
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:15,879
almost always better.

64
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,519
Speaker 2: Than on the road. Just do that.

65
00:04:19,079 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 3: I don't know, man, I don't know, man, because I'm

66
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:25,959
saying is like watching Jack Flattery against the Red Sox.

67
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,240
The Red Socks are terrible, Okay, there anyone should be

68
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,279
able to shut them out. But Flattery can't find the plate,

69
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,040
which you would know. But you would only know that

70
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:40,920
three weeks into the season. Because no, I mean he's

71
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:46,240
not good because his command is a mess. But you

72
00:04:46,399 --> 00:04:50,000
may not have known that the first you may not

73
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,720
have known his command was gonna be a mess the

74
00:04:51,759 --> 00:04:54,959
first week of the season. So it's like April might

75
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,000
be a good month to stream. But I don't think

76
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,879
you have all the information yet. I don't know. So

77
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:06,519
I I see what you're saying with the stats, how

78
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:10,360
they bear out that April is a better months for streaming,

79
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,920
But I just don't think you have I don't think

80
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,639
you have the information. Man, I don't know.

81
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it could go either way.

82
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,839
Speaker 1: I think you just kind of have to stream a lot,

83
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,319
I think in this time of year, and then you

84
00:05:22,439 --> 00:05:26,079
kind of take a break, you know, around like June

85
00:05:26,399 --> 00:05:28,560
or mid August, then you can come back and jump

86
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,399
in again. September it gets it gets better in September

87
00:05:31,399 --> 00:05:35,000
again you get you know, teams falling out and people

88
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,120
not carrying in any way, shape or form. So that

89
00:05:37,199 --> 00:05:40,399
can go both ways, and streaming can go both ways.

90
00:05:40,439 --> 00:05:42,639
As you know, in the two RcLs that I'm in,

91
00:05:43,199 --> 00:05:46,720
I am, you know, I think near the bottom end

92
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,959
pitching in one and I'm near the top and pitching

93
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:49,439
in the other.

94
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,959
Speaker 2: So you know, it's as with.

95
00:05:51,959 --> 00:05:54,959
Speaker 1: Anything in fantasy baseball, it can go, it go either way,

96
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,680
and sometimes you just have to pick and.

97
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 2: Choose your bounds.

98
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:03,399
Speaker 3: I yeah, I agree with the with the point that

99
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:07,240
you made about the summer months being not great for streaming.

100
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:08,480
I do agree with that.

101
00:06:08,519 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 2: Once.

102
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 3: Uh, I will say that like June and July, it's

103
00:06:13,639 --> 00:06:16,560
a it can be real ugly, so I would be

104
00:06:16,639 --> 00:06:20,639
careful for the most part. You know, obviously there's exceptions,

105
00:06:21,439 --> 00:06:27,079
but I prefer I prefer a colder weather in September

106
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,040
and like you know, maybe mid August to tail end

107
00:06:31,079 --> 00:06:34,399
of August, and then you know, start streaming heavy towards

108
00:06:34,439 --> 00:06:38,839
the end of the year. But you know, if you're

109
00:06:38,879 --> 00:06:42,120
in position like I am in our RCL league, it

110
00:06:42,199 --> 00:06:46,120
may not matter who I stream in September because my

111
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,439
team is not doing well. So I was also, I

112
00:06:50,519 --> 00:06:57,079
was watching the Red Sox Patriots game. It's the Patriots

113
00:06:57,199 --> 00:07:04,600
Day game. Yeah, yeah, not the New England Patriots I was.

114
00:07:05,079 --> 00:07:07,639
I was saying, I was watching the Patriots Day game

115
00:07:09,399 --> 00:07:12,199
with the Red Sox and Tigers. As I mentioned earlier

116
00:07:12,199 --> 00:07:16,000
with Jack Flattery, it was just so frustrating to watch

117
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,160
because I can't find the plate. But anyway, so I'm

118
00:07:19,199 --> 00:07:24,319
watching that and uh, Sonny Gray, he starts grabbing at

119
00:07:24,399 --> 00:07:27,879
his uh he grabs at like the is like handstring

120
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,920
the top of his leg. And I wasn't able to

121
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,839
read his lips. And I do believe he was not

122
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:38,639
saying ooh ooh that oh that leg is so tight.

123
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:44,199
Oh I like that. Oh oh, I feel like, oh

124
00:07:43,439 --> 00:07:46,920
oh that's nice. I've been doing some real good workouts.

125
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:48,759
I don't think he was saying that.

126
00:07:48,839 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 5: I think it was more like ow ow owl was

127
00:07:53,639 --> 00:07:59,360
and I think so, Yeah, I would potentially look at

128
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:04,120
pay in Peyton Toll as a a guy who sounds like.

129
00:08:05,959 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 3: A toll. It sounds like the big dig there in Boston.

130
00:08:10,439 --> 00:08:13,879
But yeah, Peyton Toll tole tole is it totally?

131
00:08:14,639 --> 00:08:15,399
Speaker 2: I think it's Toll.

132
00:08:16,639 --> 00:08:20,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, Peyton Toll. Yeah, I would. I would look at

133
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,160
him if he hasn't been called up already by the

134
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:27,319
time people listen to this, Uh, might be might be

135
00:08:27,399 --> 00:08:30,079
something that's uh, that's breet. That's what you call breaking

136
00:08:30,199 --> 00:08:33,240
news there, beat on. I know the BEA doesn't stand

137
00:08:33,279 --> 00:08:35,559
for breaking news, but that's how you do it.

138
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,799
Speaker 1: I appreciate the lesson gray and yes, if if it

139
00:08:40,879 --> 00:08:42,600
looks like sun and Gray is going to the AOL,

140
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,120
which it seems like he my Peyton Toll could be

141
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,519
coming up. Obviously, there was that that spring training battle

142
00:08:48,519 --> 00:08:52,480
of is it going to be Peyton Tolla early? Was

143
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,240
it gonna be one of the other pictures who got

144
00:08:54,279 --> 00:08:55,840
hurt for the Red Sox.

145
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,039
Speaker 2: And it looks like we may.

146
00:08:57,879 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: Get kindly Early and Peyton Toll at least temporarily if

147
00:09:03,399 --> 00:09:06,519
Sonny Gray is forced to the I L. Speaking of

148
00:09:06,639 --> 00:09:10,120
guys going to going to the I L. Mick Abel

149
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:14,080
is headed to the I L. Kendrick Rojas was recalled

150
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,360
and you put a note in here, Connor prep pre

151
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:21,600
Lip is maybe just like he's on deck, He's he's

152
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,480
sitting there waiting for his chance as well.

153
00:09:25,039 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 2: What are your thoughts on this situation?

154
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,759
Speaker 3: Hm, well, I don't know. See this is kind of

155
00:09:29,799 --> 00:09:32,879
interesting to me, So I don't know how the the

156
00:09:32,919 --> 00:09:40,240
Twins prospects, how their their minor league rotation is laid out.

157
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:45,399
So maybe that's why Kendrey Rojas was called up first.

158
00:09:45,799 --> 00:09:50,759
But it seems to me like Connor pre Lip looks closer.

159
00:09:50,879 --> 00:09:54,000
I mean, he's older, He's two years older than Rojas,

160
00:09:54,159 --> 00:09:58,879
and his stuff looks better. I don't know, Like honestly,

161
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,240
I'm I'm not the prospect guy. It's more of a

162
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,519
question for Itch, I guess. But for whatever reason, pre

163
00:10:05,639 --> 00:10:09,039
Lip looks like I mean, he's twenty five years old,

164
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:13,399
he looks like he's been ready for a few years,

165
00:10:13,879 --> 00:10:17,440
and he was a you know, he's a decently regarded

166
00:10:17,519 --> 00:10:21,440
prospect too, So I don't really know. I don't know, man,

167
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,320
I don't know what they're doing. I don't know why

168
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:27,639
he was in the minor still, let alone being passed

169
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:33,639
over for Kentry Rojas. If you know, Rojas does get

170
00:10:33,639 --> 00:10:36,440
into rotation, someone needs to be in rotation because the

171
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,840
Twins are obviously a man down now with mick Abel

172
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,840
going to the AyL. So I guess we'll see. I

173
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:48,480
don't really have a ton of Rojas. I wouldn't say,

174
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,879
is anything outside of ale only or maybe a streamer

175
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,639
in mixed leagues depending on how he looks, but his

176
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:58,120
commands looks awful, So I wouldn't really mess with Rojas.

177
00:10:58,399 --> 00:11:01,600
If pre Lip came up and he was in the rotation,

178
00:11:01,799 --> 00:11:05,080
it's a little bit more interesting to me, probably probably

179
00:11:05,159 --> 00:11:08,879
like fifteen team mix league interesting. But you know, still,

180
00:11:09,919 --> 00:11:11,879
I mean that's a little bit more than Rojas, not

181
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,480
a ton more. I don't think they're shallow mix league

182
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:19,919
guys yet. They're mostly Rojas at least is ale only

183
00:11:20,279 --> 00:11:24,600
and pre lip Is, you know, potentially al or fifteen

184
00:11:24,639 --> 00:11:26,559
teen depending on if he gets called.

185
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I feel like they're both from a

186
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,799
what they can revide standpoint, like similar in that they

187
00:11:33,879 --> 00:11:37,960
can probably get some strikeouts. They both have terrible commands,

188
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:39,879
so you're gonna have to deal with that part of it.

189
00:11:40,279 --> 00:11:43,840
I agree Connor prilip Is is definitely on the higher

190
00:11:43,919 --> 00:11:45,960
end of it, but I feel like it's just kind

191
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:51,039
of like similar, similar builds, just a little bit different

192
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,919
tiers of them. So, Yeah, if Connor prilip comes up,

193
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:55,919
I would look at him and like you said, probably

194
00:11:55,919 --> 00:11:58,159
a fifteen team is probably about.

195
00:11:57,879 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 2: The right depth there. You know, Kendrick Rojas, maybe.

196
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,799
Speaker 1: In a fifteen team league you do some spot starts,

197
00:12:06,039 --> 00:12:10,120
but you're probably not rostering him a full time another io,

198
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,159
Hori Polanco goes to the i L with a right

199
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:17,080
risk contusion. It seems like Mark Vientos is going to

200
00:12:17,159 --> 00:12:19,840
fill in for him. They have Ronnie Mauricio down in

201
00:12:19,879 --> 00:12:22,639
the minors. There's potential they could they could bring him

202
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,000
back up, but for now it seems like it's Mark

203
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,919
Vientos is going to be the primary beneficiary here.

204
00:12:29,519 --> 00:12:32,759
Speaker 3: I uh yeah, I had Actually, I feel like we

205
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:38,879
haven't really discussed uh this as much as like did

206
00:12:38,919 --> 00:12:44,919
He or Fuentes as you're you're well aware, I'm baited

207
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,120
breath over here waiting for did He er Flintes. I've

208
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:54,440
I've renamed him Fwente's because I am dying for him

209
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,720
to come up. But I don't think I don't think

210
00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:03,879
you're as as aware of my on paralleled love for

211
00:13:04,039 --> 00:13:12,120
Mark Fiento's, even though probably unwarranted, but I really like

212
00:13:12,279 --> 00:13:16,000
Fiento's mostly because I have them in a bunch of

213
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:21,120
leagues and I really need Piano's to do something, you know.

214
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:26,720
So then so I put this on the podcast outline

215
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,720
just so we could talk about Mark Fiano's.

216
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 1: Maybe if we mentioned his name, you know, he'll really

217
00:13:34,039 --> 00:13:36,080
he'll really get it going and turn it on Gray.

218
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, Fiano's the fresh maker. I uh yeah, as I

219
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:46,080
as I sit here and uh look at Mark Fientos's

220
00:13:46,799 --> 00:13:55,159
stat line, he's got a sixteen percent hard hit. I

221
00:13:55,159 --> 00:13:59,120
don't remember. I don't remember Biento's having a sixteen percent

222
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:06,799
hard hit before. Maybe there is maybe there's nothing here. Yeah,

223
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:11,360
I don't know. I felt like Viento's really showed something,

224
00:14:12,279 --> 00:14:15,720
you know, two years ago in twenty twenty four. Obviously

225
00:14:16,519 --> 00:14:19,039
that is what two years ago was. You know, he

226
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:22,679
hit twenty seven homers, hit two sixty six, looked like

227
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:27,159
it looked like he was actually clicking, and then last

228
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:31,559
year was okay. I mean, under the hood wise, this

229
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:35,840
year hasn't been great. For the last you know, I

230
00:14:35,879 --> 00:14:39,399
want to say the last week he looked good before

231
00:14:39,559 --> 00:14:43,279
Polonco went down. He hasn't looked great since. If I'm

232
00:14:43,279 --> 00:14:47,480
being honest. He's making a lot of contact, just not

233
00:14:47,559 --> 00:14:49,840
a lot of great contact. So I don't know. I

234
00:14:49,879 --> 00:14:54,279
guess put Fiento's on your watch list. You know, maybe

235
00:14:54,279 --> 00:14:55,080
there's nothing there.

236
00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,519
Speaker 1: Thanks for that, great I will say, you know, to

237
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,919
give you a ray of hope here. The sixteen percent

238
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,440
hard hit is the fan grabs hard hit, which factors

239
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,679
in a number of things that they don't exactly tell

240
00:15:10,759 --> 00:15:14,000
us what they are. The stat cast hard hit is

241
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:18,440
forty four point two percent, so not great even I

242
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,799
mean Mark Vinto's typically is higher than that, but it's

243
00:15:21,799 --> 00:15:25,480
not as gloomy as sixteen percent sounds.

244
00:15:25,759 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 2: So it's a little bit barrel better.

245
00:15:27,519 --> 00:15:30,159
Speaker 6: The barrel rate is down, but barrels is one of

246
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:35,120
the weirdest dumb stats out there, honestly, Like it's like

247
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,799
three barrel stoves off the whole barrel for the whole season.

248
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:39,159
Speaker 2: It's it's a weird stat.

249
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 3: Uh.

250
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 1: So not so concerned about that. Would like to see

251
00:15:41,919 --> 00:15:45,399
him square up some more. Yes, I guess the weirdest

252
00:15:45,399 --> 00:15:47,759
thing for me is that the k rate is down.

253
00:15:47,799 --> 00:15:51,440
It's the best he's he's really had, and at the

254
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:55,679
same time, the swinging strike is the worst he's he's

255
00:15:55,759 --> 00:16:00,399
really had. So I'm kind of curious where that up. Like,

256
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,480
if the k rate is down and he's still gonna

257
00:16:02,559 --> 00:16:06,039
hit the ball semi hard, that I'm I could get interested.

258
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,639
Speaker 2: But if the k rate is just temporarily.

259
00:16:09,039 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 1: Down but the swinging strike rate is gonna eventually bring

260
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:15,000
that back up, Uh, that's that's just gonna lead to

261
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:16,039
a lot of disappointment.

262
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 3: Like last season, I feel like I appreciate you trying

263
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:21,559
to make me feel better about Mark.

264
00:16:22,399 --> 00:16:25,039
Speaker 2: I was trying to give you a little upside there, Gray,

265
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:25,480
you know.

266
00:16:26,679 --> 00:16:29,919
Speaker 3: You know it's a I got another bone to pick

267
00:16:30,039 --> 00:16:35,039
not with you, though, Why can't these why can't these

268
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,639
stat providers get on the same page? Like this is

269
00:16:38,879 --> 00:16:42,639
this is something I've I've beat and emmed about before

270
00:16:42,639 --> 00:16:45,440
in the past, and I just like I just don't

271
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:49,000
get it, man, Like why can't they Why can't we

272
00:16:49,039 --> 00:16:51,799
all just get along? Why why can't we all just

273
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,720
be in the same gang and just be like, you

274
00:16:54,759 --> 00:16:58,159
know what, this is hard? This is our hard hit

275
00:16:58,279 --> 00:17:03,240
rate for one guy across every website, Like why do

276
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:09,079
why this? Fan Grabs and statacast and Baseball Reference all

277
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:13,599
have different like stats, like why, Like what's the I

278
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,839
don't It's just like the dumbest pissing contest. I don't

279
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,839
understand why we can't just get on the same page.

280
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:24,559
I really don't. I don't know, man, It's it's annoying

281
00:17:24,839 --> 00:17:29,119
from like a reader perspective, to be honest, I mean

282
00:17:29,279 --> 00:17:32,440
they must know this, they must know it's somewhat annoying.

283
00:17:32,839 --> 00:17:36,119
Like when someone's like, oh, yeah, he's a a one

284
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:40,200
point eight war player and it's like, well, which war?

285
00:17:40,799 --> 00:17:45,319
Like come on, man, like why does there have to

286
00:17:45,319 --> 00:17:48,279
be more than one war? Like come on, like, oh,

287
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,319
he's an eighteen percent hard hit guy? Like, oh, well,

288
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:57,799
it's actually forty four percent. Like what, oh man, it's

289
00:17:57,839 --> 00:17:58,920
just so frustrating.

290
00:17:59,079 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 7: I know.

291
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 3: Fangraphs separates hard hit and medium hit whatever that is,

292
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:11,200
so that's why the hard hit at stadcast is better.

293
00:18:11,279 --> 00:18:14,240
But anyway, it doesn't. It's like it doesn't need to

294
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:18,720
be different. It just doesn't. No one cares. Just someone

295
00:18:18,759 --> 00:18:22,200
adopts the other person's hard hit. No one don't care.

296
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 1: Well, like like Yandi Diaz, the great Fangrafts versus statcasts

297
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:31,559
hard hit. So like Yandi Diaz versus per statcast hits

298
00:18:31,559 --> 00:18:34,559
the ball incredibly hard, he just hits it straight into

299
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,599
the ground. Per Fangrafts, he does not hit it that

300
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,160
hard because he doesn't ever lift the ball, and in

301
00:18:40,279 --> 00:18:42,319
order to have a hard hit you have to actually

302
00:18:42,839 --> 00:18:44,359
lift the ball per them.

303
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,720
Speaker 2: So it's just a matter of how they define.

304
00:18:46,759 --> 00:18:49,440
Speaker 1: And as you mentioned, medium hit, there's also a thing,

305
00:18:49,559 --> 00:18:53,079
so there's it's it's all just a classification and how

306
00:18:53,079 --> 00:18:55,000
it's factor. But yes, I would I would like to

307
00:18:55,039 --> 00:18:58,400
see everything come together. I would also love to see

308
00:18:59,039 --> 00:19:03,200
universal your ID is used across the board, because boy

309
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,319
would that make my job a lot easier when I'm

310
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:09,039
trying to pull data from all different places. And uh,

311
00:19:09,599 --> 00:19:13,119
everybody uses a different junior or not junior, or the

312
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:13,960
third or not.

313
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:18,319
Speaker 2: The third, or Joshua or josh that that's terrible. We

314
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,440
just all have player ideas that would be so great.

315
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 3: You should hear. You should hear Rudy when he's got it,

316
00:19:26,319 --> 00:19:29,400
when he's like, why is it? Why? Why is the uh?

317
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:33,880
Why is the player raider not sinking? Like, oh man,

318
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:38,680
this guy's got a till day over his end. Man,

319
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,720
it's like he goes he goes crazy with like oh,

320
00:19:42,759 --> 00:19:47,519
it's like, oh, Fangrafs uses a an accent over this

321
00:19:47,599 --> 00:19:53,559
guy's e and stat Kass does it. It's like, oh, man, ah,

322
00:19:54,039 --> 00:19:55,319
you don't you drive me crazy?

323
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:59,799
Speaker 1: Gray Cole Reagan's who was supposed to be my A

324
00:20:00,519 --> 00:20:04,400
in the Parts League. You know, I'm I'm actually competing

325
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,559
in that league and like some other people, so it

326
00:20:06,559 --> 00:20:09,519
would be really nice if my ace could turn this

327
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,319
turn this around for me. Luckily, I have plenty of

328
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:16,400
other pictures who are good other than Cole Reagan's, who

329
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,279
I drafted much later. Should just listen to our own

330
00:20:19,279 --> 00:20:24,039
advice and avoid all of them. Anyways, Reagan says, one

331
00:20:24,079 --> 00:20:29,000
great start versus Minnesota, one solid start, at Detroit, one

332
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,559
not good start at Atlanta, and two bad starts at Cleveland.

333
00:20:33,039 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 2: At New York.

334
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 1: I mean he has a sixty arra a a one

335
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:41,319
six seven whip. The k raid is below twenty four percent,

336
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:46,640
the walk rate is almost twenty percent. The fastball velocities

337
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,960
down over a mile per hour from last year.

338
00:20:50,039 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 2: Is can you give me any any hope here?

339
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:53,680
Speaker 3: Gray?

340
00:20:53,839 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I tried as hard as I could for you,

341
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,559
for Mike Bantos, Do you have do you have any

342
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:05,160
We think Cole Reagans was not just a complete.

343
00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:06,319
Speaker 2: Waste of a draft pick.

344
00:21:08,079 --> 00:21:18,319
Speaker 1: Well a magically fined you know, a mile and a

345
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:22,359
half that he's lost off his fastball and two years

346
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,400
last year and a half, that'd be phenomenal.

347
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 2: If you just do that, great, I mean, he'd be

348
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:29,000
right back right.

349
00:21:34,079 --> 00:21:40,519
Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't know, man, you know, I'm I'm pretty concerned.

350
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:44,000
I'll be honest, I'm not. I'm not really optimistic about

351
00:21:44,039 --> 00:21:47,079
cold Reagan's. I wasn't coming into the year. I'm still not.

352
00:21:47,319 --> 00:21:51,119
I think, uh, you know, the velocity being down is

353
00:21:51,759 --> 00:21:54,599
the most concerning thing. I think the the walk rate

354
00:21:54,759 --> 00:21:59,599
is so abnormal, like he doesn't usually have great command,

355
00:21:59,759 --> 00:22:04,480
but this is like so abnormally terrible that that leads

356
00:22:04,519 --> 00:22:07,000
me to believe that there could be a mechanics issue.

357
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:11,519
So then that means the velocity could come back, So

358
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,440
that could just be a matter of one little tweak

359
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:18,799
and he's right back to the great pitcher he was.

360
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:22,799
So if anything, I would be buying love right now.

361
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:27,480
People are concerned, and rightfully to a certain extent, but

362
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:32,559
he could fix everything. Like we saw Renaldo Lopez in

363
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:37,319
spring training, there was a velocity issue. He tweaked a

364
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,039
part of his most part of his wind up, and

365
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,039
he suddenly started finding the velocity again and he was

366
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:49,079
pitching well again. So Cole Reagan's if this, I mean,

367
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,480
this is so bad, I would assume this is a

368
00:22:52,599 --> 00:22:56,480
mechanics thing. Now if it's an actual injury that he's

369
00:22:56,599 --> 00:22:59,599
hiding because he did not have a full season last

370
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,319
year due to injury. So if this is an injury thing,

371
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,559
then he's just then you're getting nothing the rest of

372
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:11,880
the season. Unfortunately, this is either one tweek to his

373
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:17,559
mechanics and he's fine, or this is he's actually injured

374
00:23:17,759 --> 00:23:21,799
and he's not gonna be fine all year. So you know,

375
00:23:22,039 --> 00:23:24,319
for a buy low, I would I would say, yeah,

376
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,359
why not, you know, hopefully knock on wood, it's a

377
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:30,480
mechanics thing, he gets it fixed and he comes around

378
00:23:30,839 --> 00:23:34,720
any kind of this if you're buying low enough. I

379
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:38,559
don't think it's one hundred percent that he's gonna definitely

380
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:43,160
be better, but I think there's probably I mean, I

381
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:47,440
would say thirty thirty percent chance he's better, which is

382
00:23:47,599 --> 00:23:50,359
better than nothing. I mean, that's better than nothing, right,

383
00:23:50,559 --> 00:23:53,680
I mean there is, I mean there's some real concerns.

384
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,359
I mean, nothing is right here. So you know, if

385
00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:59,839
you're if you're looking for me to be like, well,

386
00:24:00,039 --> 00:24:03,240
I think you know he's absolutely you know that all

387
00:24:03,279 --> 00:24:06,079
the peripherals to me, you know, look like he's a

388
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:08,920
guy who's gonna come out of this. I can't say that.

389
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:13,279
I don't think that necessarily, but he could. I think

390
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,759
there's still a chance on the table that he has

391
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:21,440
you know, a a a strong bounce back. But it's

392
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,799
a risk. There's definitely there's a large risk here now,

393
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,720
I you know, I don't know. I did my best

394
00:24:29,759 --> 00:24:30,559
to be optimistic.

395
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:32,119
Speaker 2: I appreciate that.

396
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: Let me throw some names at your gray and potential

397
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:39,359
trade scenarios. Would you rather have Cole Reagan's or equally

398
00:24:40,039 --> 00:24:41,200
terrible start in.

399
00:24:44,039 --> 00:24:47,319
Speaker 3: Oh you know, I'm I'm pretty much done with Shean.

400
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:52,119
I I you know, I was hoping for something from

401
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:56,400
Emma Chien for the last couple of starts. He just

402
00:24:56,519 --> 00:25:00,720
looks so mediocre. And it's so unfortunate to say, because

403
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:02,880
he was like one of the guys who I felt

404
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:08,240
the most confident about, as like a strong number two,

405
00:25:09,039 --> 00:25:12,400
and it just hasn't been there in any way for Emmachan.

406
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:16,920
That is, you know, his velocity is down a lot,

407
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:21,359
his strikeouts are down, his walks are up. Nothing looks

408
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:25,880
right with m and Sheen. Unfortunately, I wouldn't say, I

409
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:29,559
wouldn't say Emmachian is a drop in all leagues, but

410
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,519
he's honestly, he's probably a drop in some of the

411
00:25:32,599 --> 00:25:35,680
shallower leagues. So yeah, I would go Reagan's over Shean,

412
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:38,240
all right, once you go.

413
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:41,799
Speaker 2: With Also, I'm just gonna keep going the straggling path here.

414
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 3: Luis Castillo, Oh, Castille also looks terrible.

415
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,319
Speaker 2: He looks he looks really uh looks really bad.

416
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, you know how bad Luis Caste. He

417
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:59,240
looks so bad that I have him in one league

418
00:25:59,599 --> 00:26:03,079
and I saw that he's getting the uh the sack

419
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:07,319
town A's in Seattle, which is about as good a

420
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,440
matchup as you can get. Only thing better I think

421
00:26:09,519 --> 00:26:12,720
might be the Rockies on the Road. And I'm not

422
00:26:12,839 --> 00:26:16,279
sure if I'm starting Luis Castilio because he's just so

423
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:21,079
he's been so bad, So I would go Reagan's overs

424
00:26:21,319 --> 00:26:26,960
as Castilio, and uh yeah, there's there's real issues with

425
00:26:27,079 --> 00:26:27,839
Castilio too.

426
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:34,519
Speaker 1: How about a long time favorite of the podcast, Mackenzie Gore.

427
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,839
Speaker 3: Oh, Oh, that's a that's a tough one, I would say.

428
00:26:40,279 --> 00:26:42,920
You know, McKenzie Gore was another guy who I was

429
00:26:43,079 --> 00:26:46,680
out on in the preseason because I felt like, uh,

430
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:50,240
he had he had really screwed me so many times

431
00:26:50,279 --> 00:26:52,880
in the past that it was just a personal decision

432
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:56,359
I had to make for my own mental health. But actually,

433
00:26:56,799 --> 00:27:00,400
I think mackenzie Gore's numbers looked pretty good under the

434
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:04,759
surface this year, and it's a good park. His velossity

435
00:27:04,839 --> 00:27:07,720
looks good. I think I would have to go Mackenzie Gore.

436
00:27:09,519 --> 00:27:11,839
Speaker 1: All Right, I'm gonna ask you our next guy up

437
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,599
that we're gonna talk about, who's been just as bad Gray,

438
00:27:14,799 --> 00:27:15,640
maybe even worse.

439
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 2: Eric Croche.

440
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:23,839
Speaker 3: Oh, Crochetould, I would go Crochet, but I do think,

441
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,200
like I think we talked about Crochet after the last

442
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:30,720
time he blew up, he's he's got issues as well.

443
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,000
He doesn't he's not, you know, without the issues, like

444
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,240
Velos is down, not quite as bad as Reagan's, but

445
00:27:37,319 --> 00:27:42,480
it's down. Command is off. But Crochet looks better under

446
00:27:42,519 --> 00:27:45,440
the hood still. You know, I think the last time

447
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,039
he had a terrible start, I think I said he's

448
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,039
now more like a top twenty five starter versus a

449
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:55,079
top three starter. And I would say that's that's still

450
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:59,920
true of Crochet. So Crochet over Reagan's and Crochet over

451
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:00,759
as well.

452
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would take Crochet over all of them as well.

453
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,559
And he's been of the group of unlucky pitchers. It

454
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,559
seems like the number say. You know, I'm not saying

455
00:28:10,599 --> 00:28:13,920
it's all unlucky because he has been bad, but he's

456
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:17,680
also been a little unlucky as well. So of the group,

457
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,359
I would take Crochet. Let's move on to some prospects

458
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:23,960
and just kind of check in as we are and

459
00:28:24,319 --> 00:28:28,200
like the three week phase of the season, and you know,

460
00:28:28,279 --> 00:28:30,319
this is when you might see some some of the

461
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,519
first prospects called up. This is kind of that early

462
00:28:33,319 --> 00:28:35,480
you know, I always call it the Chris Bryant timeline.

463
00:28:35,519 --> 00:28:37,480
He is the most memorial one for me as a

464
00:28:37,559 --> 00:28:39,960
comes fan. Where they should have been they should have

465
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,079
been up, but they aren't, but they could be coming

466
00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:45,279
at some point. Let's start with Colt Emerson over in Seattle.

467
00:28:45,839 --> 00:28:48,319
He's hitting two fifty eight, three sixty one, four fifty two.

468
00:28:48,319 --> 00:28:52,200
He has two of them runs and sixtlen bases. Are

469
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:55,720
you potentially looking at Grabby and Colt Emerson and what depth.

470
00:28:55,519 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 3: Ofly Yeah, I would say probably in a twelve team

471
00:29:00,079 --> 00:29:03,200
mix league, and deeper I would say cold Emerson, it's

472
00:29:03,279 --> 00:29:07,519
probably it's I mean, I don't see why he's not

473
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:11,160
called up any day now because like they already signed

474
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,920
the deal with him, so I you know, I I'd

475
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,000
be kind of shocked if he's down in the minors

476
00:29:17,039 --> 00:29:21,960
for much longer. I think in the last I want

477
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,319
to say, in the last like five days, he's lowered

478
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,480
his UH strikeout rate at Triple A. It was a

479
00:29:27,519 --> 00:29:32,359
little bit high about like last week this time, and

480
00:29:32,559 --> 00:29:35,519
it's already down to like twenty six percent. I think

481
00:29:35,559 --> 00:29:38,759
it was over thirty percent like a week ago. So

482
00:29:39,039 --> 00:29:42,440
he's already starting to come around in Triple A. He's

483
00:29:42,519 --> 00:29:44,799
too good of a hitter, and they have a they

484
00:29:44,839 --> 00:29:48,960
already made a deal with him. So yeah, I don't

485
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,400
really see why he would be in the minors for

486
00:29:51,559 --> 00:29:56,359
longer than maybe another week. Like if he hits like

487
00:29:56,839 --> 00:30:00,519
three point fifty this week and pushes his average up

488
00:30:00,559 --> 00:30:03,680
to like three hundred and his strikeout right down to

489
00:30:03,839 --> 00:30:07,680
like twenty three percent, and he looks like he's exactly

490
00:30:07,839 --> 00:30:10,039
in line with where he's been at every point in

491
00:30:10,119 --> 00:30:13,599
the minors, he could be up by this time next week.

492
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:15,559
There's no reason to keep him down.

493
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:20,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, the only thing is where that he played.

494
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 1: But it is not as though JP Crawford needs to

495
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:26,599
play every day, so he could definitely definitely slot in

496
00:30:26,839 --> 00:30:31,920
somewhere in this lineup. Let's talk about Max Clark over

497
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:35,839
in Detroit. He's hitting three fifty one, four, sixteen, five, nineteen.

498
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:37,839
He has a home run in six tolen bases. He

499
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:41,920
seems to be doing everything he can to force Detroit's hand,

500
00:30:42,559 --> 00:30:44,039
But is there a spot for him Gray?

501
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:50,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I would think that probably when Seal Perez,

502
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:57,160
he actually when Seal Prez just beat out a an

503
00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,440
infield hit and then I'm watching the game. That's a

504
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:04,119
that's a interesting for people listening to this podcast. Yeah,

505
00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:08,480
I would say when Seal Perez is probably he's he

506
00:31:08,559 --> 00:31:12,519
can get bumped. The Tigers are in like the Tigers

507
00:31:12,559 --> 00:31:18,039
are in their competitive window. They you know, McGonagall was

508
00:31:18,599 --> 00:31:22,119
brought up opening day like they're they're going for it right,

509
00:31:22,519 --> 00:31:28,200
Like there's no reason. Max Clark is ready, Like he's ready, ready,

510
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:32,799
He's like he's as ready as they're gonna come. There's

511
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,279
no reason to keep him in the minors, Like he's

512
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:40,279
killing trip AA pitching, Like why would you leave him

513
00:31:40,359 --> 00:31:43,559
down there? It just doesn't make sense. So I would

514
00:31:43,599 --> 00:31:48,759
guess Max Clark is up within like two to three weeks,

515
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:53,200
maybe less, maybe a little bit more, but soon within

516
00:31:53,319 --> 00:31:54,279
a month for sure.

517
00:31:55,799 --> 00:31:55,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

518
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,559
Speaker 1: I mean when Seal Perez is hitting, you know, a

519
00:32:00,119 --> 00:32:02,079
as well as you and I would in the majors,

520
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,400
So it does feel like there should be an opening

521
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:11,200
for him coming up. Over in San Francisco. Bryce Eldridge

522
00:32:11,599 --> 00:32:15,640
is hitting three fifteen, four, four, seventy nine and has

523
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:20,079
a couple of home runs. You know, it feels like

524
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:23,880
there should be, you know, an opening for him in

525
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:27,799
San Francisco. There's just we're just kind of waiting for

526
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:31,480
the opportunity. You know, it feels like Drew Gilbert could

527
00:32:31,559 --> 00:32:35,519
take your Seat's good Casey Schmande, although they're both actually

528
00:32:35,599 --> 00:32:39,519
hitting okay right now. But Bryce Eldridge, it feels like

529
00:32:39,599 --> 00:32:41,200
it's going to force their hand a little bit here.

530
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,759
The strikeout rate is still a little bit high, so

531
00:32:43,799 --> 00:32:47,200
they could potentially use that to just milk the service

532
00:32:47,279 --> 00:32:47,920
time a little bit.

533
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 2: But what's your thoughts here on Bryce Eldridge?

534
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I would I would think Bryce Eldridge

535
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,599
because probably I want to say, he was on the

536
00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:02,000
majority of people's lists for guys who were gonna break camp.

537
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:05,319
So I think everyone's really like surprised that he was

538
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:09,319
even sent to the miners to begin the year. I

539
00:33:09,759 --> 00:33:12,640
you know, I am. I was surprised. I felt like

540
00:33:12,759 --> 00:33:15,160
he was breaking camp. So I don't know. I I know,

541
00:33:15,599 --> 00:33:20,759
like Casey Schmidt is their DH. He's he's most famous

542
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:25,680
for his pants being seen through and everyone's seeing his testicles.

543
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 2: So there's that.

544
00:33:28,759 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 3: Drew Gilbert is the Melissa Gilbert's brother. I don't even

545
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:38,119
know dreel Gisdrew Gilbert is. I don't know there's guys

546
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:41,559
on the Giants team that's like Christian Costs.

547
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:46,039
Speaker 8: Okay, you say so, man, if you made up that name,

548
00:33:46,119 --> 00:33:49,720
I would have been like you. I mean, they're and

549
00:33:49,759 --> 00:33:53,920
they're going nowhere for the Giants. So like, I mean,

550
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,559
why wouldn't you just bring up Bryce Elbridge. It doesn't

551
00:33:57,599 --> 00:34:01,400
make sense why he's in the minors, just like he's

552
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:05,200
gonna strike out a lot, but that's his profile anyway,

553
00:34:05,319 --> 00:34:08,920
He's gonna strike out like that's he's always gonna strike

554
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,440
out a lot. I don't see that even as he

555
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:14,320
you know, he gets older, maybe he comes down a

556
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:17,199
little bit in strikeouts, but he seems like he's gonna

557
00:34:17,199 --> 00:34:19,880
strike out a decent amount even as you know he

558
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:24,239
gets older in the major So yeah, I would. I

559
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:28,199
would bring up Bryce Eldridge yesterday, but maybe within the

560
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:29,280
next week or two.

561
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:34,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like he deserves a shot at some point.

562
00:34:34,559 --> 00:34:36,519
Speaker 1: Like you said, the strikeouts may be bad, and there

563
00:34:36,559 --> 00:34:39,639
may be there may be an adjustment period where the

564
00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:42,760
strikeouts are a little too much, But it feels like

565
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:44,519
they need to bring him up at least give him

566
00:34:44,559 --> 00:34:48,039
that look and let him make those adjustments. Let's move

567
00:34:48,079 --> 00:34:51,360
over to Arizona Ryan Walshpan was a you know, popular

568
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,639
guy to potentially break camp. We're gonna see him soon

569
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:58,159
as he's sitting three thirty eight, four eight, five sixty

570
00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:00,119
three with a couple of home runs and forced on

571
00:35:00,159 --> 00:35:05,440
the basis. Meanwhile, Arizona is trotting out guys like Alec

572
00:35:05,559 --> 00:35:09,960
Thomas and Jose Fernandez and you know, Donmorrow.

573
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:14,840
Speaker 2: But Gargas, I'll.

574
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:19,599
Speaker 3: Leave that one for you. Uh yeah, Ryan Walt Schmidt,

575
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:23,480
I mean he's probably probably should have been breaking camp

576
00:35:23,559 --> 00:35:27,559
with the team. I mean it's pretty obvious. I don't see, uh,

577
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:32,280
I don't see why he's in the minors, but I guess,

578
00:35:33,119 --> 00:35:35,400
you know. I mean you already mentioned a stat so

579
00:35:35,679 --> 00:35:38,599
no reason, no reason to say that again. But yeah,

580
00:35:38,639 --> 00:35:42,039
I mean he's killing the minor leagues right now. You know,

581
00:35:42,119 --> 00:35:44,800
the strikeouts are a little bit up, but not bad.

582
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:47,719
I think I think he needs to come up and

583
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:53,760
sink or swim, I would say, again, I don't know.

584
00:35:54,079 --> 00:35:56,960
I mean it could be, it could be tomorrow, it

585
00:35:57,079 --> 00:35:59,480
could be three weeks from now. I have no idea,

586
00:35:59,559 --> 00:36:02,320
but he's be up though. He's he's definitely a guy

587
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:03,559
to put on your radars.

588
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:06,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like.

589
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,320
Speaker 1: He's gonna be coming up. I mean, all these guys

590
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,639
feel like they should be up soon. Whether they are

591
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,960
or not, that's always hard to say, but it feels

592
00:36:15,039 --> 00:36:16,599
like they should have the opportunity.

593
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:18,480
Speaker 2: Another guy that kind.

594
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:20,320
Speaker 1: Of fits in the same mold of we we thought

595
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,440
he might break camp and just kind of waiting for

596
00:36:23,559 --> 00:36:26,599
him to get a call up is is Travis Bazanna.

597
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,280
Speaker 2: He has a home run five stone bases. He's sitting

598
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:31,760
two seventy eight, three seventy four for eighty one. He's

599
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:35,239
cut his k rate. You know, it may just be

600
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:38,519
a again, just he needs an opportunity.

601
00:36:39,039 --> 00:36:42,840
Speaker 1: Daniel Steven's actually not been absolutely terrible, so that that

602
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,559
maybe pushing the start date back a little bit.

603
00:36:45,639 --> 00:36:47,199
Speaker 2: But what are we gonna see Travis Bazanna.

604
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:52,239
Speaker 3: I don't know. I mean, you added him to the list,

605
00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:55,559
I believe. I don't know if Bazanna is uh. I

606
00:36:55,559 --> 00:36:58,400
don't know if he's as close as the other guys.

607
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,719
I would say, I mean, he could be, he might,

608
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:05,960
he might be up, you know, relatively soon, but I

609
00:37:06,039 --> 00:37:08,800
would guess a little bit later for Bazana. But then again,

610
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:12,320
I was like I was convinced that I was convinced

611
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:16,280
that Noah Schultz wasn't coming up until like August September,

612
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:18,719
so I don't know. I mean, it's all you know,

613
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:22,519
it's really it's just guesswork. But Bizanna, I mean, Bizanna

614
00:37:22,559 --> 00:37:24,760
will be an ad in every league if he gets

615
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:26,800
if he gets called up, I just don't know if

616
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:31,679
he's that close. Maybe he is. I don't know. He

617
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:34,800
is making a lot of contact in the minor leagues.

618
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,400
He's got speed, he doesn't have like a ton of power.

619
00:37:38,599 --> 00:37:41,840
So I'm not as excited about Bazana. He feels he

620
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:45,480
feels better for real world than he does for fantasy,

621
00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:48,519
but you know, maybe yeah, No, I.

622
00:37:48,599 --> 00:37:52,280
Speaker 1: Agree in regards to where his appeal lies versus fantasy

623
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:55,159
versus real world. But I still think he's gonna be

624
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,960
useful guy in our game. I don't think it's just

625
00:37:58,039 --> 00:38:02,440
gonna be, you know, the useless profile. I just wanted

626
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:05,239
to throw him in there because I do think there's

627
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,480
potential he could get an opportunity. It just feels like

628
00:38:07,519 --> 00:38:11,519
Cleveland is gonna try. They're gonna try everybody they have

629
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:15,239
before they bring him up. Unfortunately, so there may be

630
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:19,119
a little bit of a wait. How about another guy

631
00:38:19,119 --> 00:38:21,599
I added here, which is Joshua Bias. He's only hitting

632
00:38:21,639 --> 00:38:24,119
two six, three eight, three ninety seven, but he's got

633
00:38:24,159 --> 00:38:26,039
three home runs, five stolen bases.

634
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:28,679
Speaker 2: He can kind of play a few different positions.

635
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 1: And the Cardinals, I don't know if you know this,

636
00:38:31,119 --> 00:38:34,880
their their lineup is pretty pretty awful gray after the

637
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:35,400
top four.

638
00:38:35,639 --> 00:38:39,599
Speaker 2: So so when when do we think Joshuabias comes up?

639
00:38:42,639 --> 00:38:44,840
Speaker 3: You know, he probably is another guy. He probably should

640
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:46,760
have just broke camp with the team. I don't know

641
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:51,000
why he's in the miners, but I mean, he is

642
00:38:51,159 --> 00:38:54,400
getting a bit exposed in Triple A with the strikeout

643
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:58,079
rate over thirty percent and hitting two oh six, so

644
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,119
maybe there is a good reason he's in the miners.

645
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,519
I don't know. He might also just be bored. I

646
00:39:03,599 --> 00:39:08,480
mean his stat I was just like I was looking

647
00:39:08,519 --> 00:39:11,719
at his minor league stats for last year is twenty homers,

648
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:15,239
fifty four steals in a two eighty seven average with

649
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:18,719
a twenty point six strikeout rate. Like I mean that

650
00:39:19,199 --> 00:39:21,519
he should have been called up then. So I don't know,

651
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:26,639
but he does. He's either bored right now at Triple

652
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:30,039
A or he is struggling to make contact. It does

653
00:39:30,159 --> 00:39:34,159
look like he's he's had some struggles with contact in

654
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:38,840
the past, with you know, in the Miners in twenty

655
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:42,480
twenty four, So yeah, maybe he just needs to Maybe

656
00:39:42,519 --> 00:39:44,599
he needs a little bit of time at each level.

657
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:47,840
I don't know, I don't think. I mean, if you're

658
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:51,760
the Cardinals, like they're going nowhere, so like, I don't

659
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:55,719
know why you would call them up until there's a

660
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:59,679
really legitimate reason. And he hasn't given them a legitimate

661
00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:03,039
reason and yet. So yeah, I don't think he's I

662
00:40:03,079 --> 00:40:07,719
don't think he's due that soon. Maybe maybe I'm wrong,

663
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:08,119
I don't know.

664
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, this feels like it was the Cardinals a decade ago,

665
00:40:11,599 --> 00:40:14,400
he'd probably be up, but right now, in their current shape,

666
00:40:15,079 --> 00:40:17,239
it may be a little bit of time. I do think,

667
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,559
just some of the lack of production from their guys

668
00:40:20,679 --> 00:40:22,840
may produced, may be forced to hand a little bit.

669
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:25,440
But as you mentioned, he's having his own struggles. He's

670
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,800
picked it up a little bit recently, but yes, he's

671
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:30,960
the strikeout rate is still high, so we'll see if

672
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:31,960
that can come back down.

673
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:36,039
Speaker 2: Let's move on to somebody. I mean, we just have

674
00:40:36,159 --> 00:40:37,039
to talk about him.

675
00:40:37,119 --> 00:40:42,760
Speaker 1: We have to talk about Matha Graymonataki Mura comedy twenty

676
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:45,559
two games, ninety three played appearances, eight home runs.

677
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:49,039
Speaker 2: He's only hitting two a eight, but uh, I mean.

678
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,400
Speaker 1: Eight home runs over this time and this last week

679
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:54,440
he had four him runs where he hit three thirty three.

680
00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:57,960
Speaker 2: So where are you putting Mura comedy for the rest

681
00:40:58,000 --> 00:40:59,320
of the season? Is this like the.

682
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:03,239
Speaker 1: Ultimate so high point because you're worried there's gonna be

683
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:08,199
a you know, a strikeout pictures adjusting or would you

684
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:09,599
are you fully gonna go.

685
00:41:09,599 --> 00:41:11,480
Speaker 2: Ahead and buy the power to break out?

686
00:41:11,519 --> 00:41:18,159
Speaker 3: Here? It was if pictures are adjusting and he strikes

687
00:41:18,199 --> 00:41:22,599
out more, how much more can he strike out? He's

688
00:41:22,679 --> 00:41:24,719
already striking out a lot, isn't.

689
00:41:24,519 --> 00:41:28,000
Speaker 2: He He is striking out a whole lot.

690
00:41:29,639 --> 00:41:31,280
Speaker 1: He does have a twenty one and a half, say

691
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:33,480
walk right, So at least he's you know, it is

692
00:41:33,559 --> 00:41:35,679
a it is an Adam Dunn type.

693
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:41,960
Speaker 3: It's true. Yeah, it's a true three outcome guy. Yeah,

694
00:41:42,039 --> 00:41:45,559
I mean, I've liked more coming. Is uh? Are people

695
00:41:45,639 --> 00:41:47,079
calling mathra?

696
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:47,719
Speaker 1: Is that his?

697
00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:49,960
Speaker 2: I just threw that out there because I thought I

698
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:51,000
threw it out there.

699
00:41:51,079 --> 00:41:55,519
Speaker 3: Okay I wasn't. Yeah, I don't know, Yeah, I you know,

700
00:41:56,880 --> 00:42:00,599
I saw something like he was. I think he was

701
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:04,960
the first player in one hundred years or something where

702
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:09,280
he had the first rookie or something where he had

703
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:15,599
hit a home run in three straight games twice in April,

704
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:20,719
something like that. I don't know clearly, I don't work

705
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,639
for Elias Sports Bureau, but I mean there was some

706
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:26,480
stat where it's like he's doing things no one's ever

707
00:42:26,519 --> 00:42:33,199
seen before with power. I would say, he is not

708
00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:35,920
going to hit for a fridge. If this is I

709
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,000
don't think he's going to get better for average. But

710
00:42:38,119 --> 00:42:40,639
we always knew that, like we always we always sort

711
00:42:40,679 --> 00:42:43,400
of felt like that was gonna be his like real

712
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:48,519
big drawback. He is doing enough with power, and third

713
00:42:48,639 --> 00:42:53,159
base is such a hideous position. I mean, everyone knows

714
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:56,280
who the number one third basement is. That's it's gonna

715
00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:59,920
be no shock to people. But listen to the player

716
00:43:00,119 --> 00:43:04,480
raider third baseman so far for the year. Now obviously

717
00:43:04,559 --> 00:43:08,000
it's early. Don't have to tell you that, but I

718
00:43:08,119 --> 00:43:11,960
say it anyway. So number one Jose Ramirez, no shock,

719
00:43:12,519 --> 00:43:18,079
then more a Kami, then Austin Riley, then Mauricio Debon,

720
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:27,119
then Jose Calboero, then Max Munsey, Dodgers, Kevin McGonagall and

721
00:43:27,639 --> 00:43:33,679
Max Munsey as Oswald Pirazza, then Matt Chatman. That's the

722
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:35,159
top ten third baseman.

723
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:38,000
Speaker 2: It's bad.

724
00:43:38,599 --> 00:43:41,840
Speaker 3: I mean, third base is so bad, you know, like

725
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:46,639
Manny Machado hasn't done anything so far. I'm sure he'll

726
00:43:46,679 --> 00:43:50,559
come around. Probably a bi low, uh, Johannio Suarez will

727
00:43:50,599 --> 00:43:53,920
get hot at some point. Also probably a by Low.

728
00:43:54,599 --> 00:43:58,039
Junior kamaniro Is, you know, he's probably a bi lo

729
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:01,559
a little bit. He's teenth right now on the on

730
00:44:01,639 --> 00:44:06,280
the on the player raider for third basement mckel Garcia

731
00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:10,079
probably a by low. But there is a lot of

732
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:13,800
like a lot of terrible third basement. So the fact

733
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:18,559
that Morikami has that position eligibility that's going to keep

734
00:44:18,639 --> 00:44:22,639
him relatively valuable for fantasy for the most part. I

735
00:44:22,679 --> 00:44:26,840
don't I don't see him like bottoming out for like

736
00:44:27,079 --> 00:44:32,440
fantasy unless he hits like one seventy, which I don't

737
00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:35,519
think is gonna get that bad. Like I do think

738
00:44:35,559 --> 00:44:38,440
he probably can keep his average around the two ten

739
00:44:38,559 --> 00:44:44,320
mark to ten with you know, say thirty five to

740
00:44:44,519 --> 00:44:48,800
forty homers. I mean, it's not it's not perfect because

741
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,840
of the average being you know a little bit on

742
00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:54,440
the down side, but you know he's he does have

743
00:44:54,559 --> 00:44:56,719
a little bit of speed too. We haven't seen it yet,

744
00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:59,800
but he should be able to steal say seven bags,

745
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:06,400
thirty seven, say thirty seven homers, seven steals two ten average. Again,

746
00:45:06,519 --> 00:45:10,000
it's not perfect, but it's you know, for third basement,

747
00:45:10,199 --> 00:45:15,679
it's not it's not that bad. I do think he's

748
00:45:15,679 --> 00:45:19,000
always going to struggle for average, you know. I mean

749
00:45:19,159 --> 00:45:25,239
he he struggled with strikeouts in Japan so and and

750
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:27,719
struggled for average a little bit in Japan. You know,

751
00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:32,480
hit two forty four in Japan like that. That comes

752
00:45:32,519 --> 00:45:36,039
out to about to ten or lower in the majors.

753
00:45:36,079 --> 00:45:38,840
And so he's doing basically what he's always done. I

754
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:41,920
don't see him really changing his profile, but he will

755
00:45:42,039 --> 00:45:43,400
hit for power, which is good.

756
00:45:45,039 --> 00:45:49,239
Speaker 2: Yeah. Would you rather have him or Matt Chapin.

757
00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:52,760
Speaker 3: Oh, for sure, more comedy, I was, you know, I

758
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,159
think we talked about more comic earlier in the year,

759
00:45:55,199 --> 00:45:58,239
and I mentioned he was probably should have been going

760
00:45:58,599 --> 00:46:01,960
in front of Austin Ryan Rafts like he like. I

761
00:46:02,079 --> 00:46:06,519
think Austin Riley or him is a legitimate like either or.

762
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:11,440
And I think I'm going more comedy over Austin Riley

763
00:46:12,119 --> 00:46:15,880
just because I like the upside Austin Riley. I think

764
00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:17,480
we kind of know what we're gonna get there.

765
00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:22,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, at least we hope we know what we're gonna

766
00:46:22,039 --> 00:46:26,960
get there, based on, you know, the last few seasons.

767
00:46:27,039 --> 00:46:30,039
It's it's tough to say. I would also go to

768
00:46:30,119 --> 00:46:33,679
burg Comedy there. What about somebody who pretty much gives

769
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,840
you the same type of profile au Hanio Sorez or

770
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:37,480
Burke Comy.

771
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:42,840
Speaker 3: I would go Sworez because I think Suarez is probably

772
00:46:43,039 --> 00:46:48,480
the same power but two twenty or plus on average.

773
00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:52,440
So again, same profile, like you said, but a little

774
00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:54,719
bit better on average, a little bit at least.

775
00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:58,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, And there's definitely also the track record behind Suarez

776
00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:00,840
where you feel like, I know he can do it.

777
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:01,400
Speaker 2: He's done it.

778
00:47:01,519 --> 00:47:04,960
Speaker 1: There's not there's no dangerous adjustment period coming up, just

779
00:47:05,039 --> 00:47:08,000
the usual month where he'll not hit a single ball.

780
00:47:08,199 --> 00:47:11,599
Speaker 2: It'll be okay, let's talk some pitching pop ups.

781
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:14,599
Speaker 1: Here, Gray, There's there's some guys that you know you

782
00:47:14,679 --> 00:47:17,039
talked you ran off the third base player raider list,

783
00:47:17,119 --> 00:47:19,760
and if you look at the hitter player Raider list,

784
00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:22,760
it's a lot of names that we expected to be there,

785
00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:24,719
or we've already talked about them, and it's a few

786
00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:27,920
here there, but then when you pull up the pitching list,

787
00:47:28,039 --> 00:47:29,920
it's it's different. It's a whole lot of guys we

788
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:33,000
didn't expect, or at least we didn't draft him to

789
00:47:33,119 --> 00:47:34,559
be up there. You know, we may have thought they

790
00:47:34,599 --> 00:47:36,320
were gonna be good, but we didn't draft the mass

791
00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:39,199
top pitchers. A couple of weeks ago, we talked about

792
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:42,239
the number one starting pitcher on the Player Raider, which

793
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:43,360
is Jose Soriano.

794
00:47:45,559 --> 00:47:47,639
Speaker 2: You know, that's the kind kind of thing that happens.

795
00:47:47,679 --> 00:47:50,880
Speaker 1: And this is also why we always devalue started pitching

796
00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:54,800
in drafts. Let's start with Jacob Zerowski. Five games started

797
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:57,159
this year. He has twenty six to two thirds innings,

798
00:47:57,199 --> 00:47:59,880
a three or four year eight one away whippy, thirty

799
00:48:00,039 --> 00:48:03,119
seven point eight percent strikeout rate, a ten point eight

800
00:48:03,199 --> 00:48:07,960
percent walk rate. I mean, Jacob Msowski has come out

801
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:09,880
of the gates and been every bit of the guy

802
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:11,519
we thought he could be based on what he did

803
00:48:11,639 --> 00:48:15,079
last year. Is uh, is this is this legitimate? Or

804
00:48:15,159 --> 00:48:17,199
is there is this a little bit a little bit

805
00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:19,159
too good for for what you expect?

806
00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:24,159
Speaker 3: Mm hmm. You know, I'd probably say that Messerrowski's similar

807
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:27,599
to what we saw last year with him, whereas like

808
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:33,360
he was great before the All Star break, then afterwards

809
00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:36,280
it was a little bit more hit or miss and

810
00:48:36,639 --> 00:48:41,119
uh he you know, actually it's sort of with him,

811
00:48:41,159 --> 00:48:43,719
it's not hit or miss, it's more like miss or miss.

812
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:47,039
He's he just he just misses the zone.

813
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:48,559
Speaker 2: Yeah.

814
00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:52,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like he's gonna he's gonna walk guys, and

815
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:55,920
at some point he's gonna come into a situation where

816
00:48:56,679 --> 00:49:00,199
he's just walking everyone. And you know, it's it's not

817
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:03,639
like he it's not like he's gonna suddenly be more hitable,

818
00:49:04,039 --> 00:49:07,679
like he's not hittable. It's just he he loses the

819
00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:11,480
zone sometimes. So I I like him still. I think

820
00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:13,920
at some point that we're gonna see, you know, a

821
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:17,719
stretch of games where he's just not as good as

822
00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:20,519
he's been so far this year, like what we saw

823
00:49:20,639 --> 00:49:21,079
last year.

824
00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:24,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say, you know, last year he finished

825
00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:27,440
with a four to three six. Obviously we saw better

826
00:49:27,559 --> 00:49:29,920
things from him at different times. He's at a three

827
00:49:30,039 --> 00:49:32,119
oh four. Now if I split the difference and say

828
00:49:32,159 --> 00:49:36,400
he's a three six five three seven guy, that feels

829
00:49:36,679 --> 00:49:37,480
about right to me.

830
00:49:38,079 --> 00:49:40,199
Speaker 2: Would you take me over or under it. Let's just

831
00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:41,159
say three six five.

832
00:49:44,119 --> 00:49:45,719
Speaker 3: I would take the over a little bit.

833
00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:50,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's fair. Let's talk about another guy,

834
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:51,159
Parker Messik.

835
00:49:51,519 --> 00:49:53,840
Speaker 1: Four games this year, twenty five to two thirds innings,

836
00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:56,039
A one oh five, E, A oh seven eight with

837
00:49:56,639 --> 00:49:58,920
twenty six point nine percent strikeout rate and a's.

838
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:02,920
Speaker 2: Seven and a half walk rate. Where you out of

839
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:06,119
Parker Messic in his uh his great start to the season.

840
00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:11,440
Speaker 3: Uh, you know, I was watching the the no hitter

841
00:50:11,519 --> 00:50:14,119
the other day where he lost it in the in

842
00:50:14,199 --> 00:50:18,400
the ninth inning, and he looked I mean, he looks

843
00:50:18,519 --> 00:50:22,480
kind of hitt able in like, not in a terrible way,

844
00:50:22,679 --> 00:50:27,400
but like he doesn't that he's just like he makes

845
00:50:27,719 --> 00:50:32,000
he induces weak contact, which is good, that's not a

846
00:50:32,119 --> 00:50:35,760
bad thing, but it's the kind of profile that is

847
00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:38,519
not going to be an ACE. So where he is

848
00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:41,480
right now, like if you could sell high, I would

849
00:50:41,559 --> 00:50:44,920
sell high. I don't think he's going to become unusable

850
00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:48,119
because he does have good command. So with good command,

851
00:50:48,199 --> 00:50:50,559
he's able to locate the pitches in a place where

852
00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:52,679
they're not gonna be able to make good contact. So

853
00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:56,199
I think it's I think he'll be good, but I think,

854
00:50:56,440 --> 00:51:00,559
you know, even even his good is more like, you know,

855
00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:04,159
like best case scenario, and this is a really good

856
00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:06,440
case scenario. But best case scenario, I would say like

857
00:51:06,599 --> 00:51:11,440
logan web and worst case scenario is like Andrew Abbit.

858
00:51:12,599 --> 00:51:16,440
He's probably somewhere in between those two for you know,

859
00:51:17,039 --> 00:51:20,119
what they're doing right now or what they will do.

860
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:24,679
So I like messic. I just think he's probably closer

861
00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:29,079
to like a number two or three versus an A's.

862
00:51:30,559 --> 00:51:33,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say I agree with that. I think

863
00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:36,719
he's probably a three for most people. You know, the

864
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:40,239
strikeouts are nice. He did have strikeouts in the minors,

865
00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:44,000
so I could see that carrying over in twenty five innings,

866
00:51:44,079 --> 00:51:46,000
and you know that's that's one of the stats that

867
00:51:46,039 --> 00:51:50,559
will unnormalize the fastest. So maybe the strikeouts remain, which

868
00:51:50,599 --> 00:51:53,719
makes him at least a little bit more interesting for

869
00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:56,920
his favorite velocity's up about a half mile per hour

870
00:51:57,000 --> 00:52:00,280
or so. He doesn't throw particularly hard, but he's above

871
00:52:00,360 --> 00:52:03,079
ninety three with that with that small bump, and above

872
00:52:03,199 --> 00:52:07,800
ninety three is a not unmeaningful jump of velocity there.

873
00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:10,559
Ninety three is kind of that that number you want

874
00:52:10,599 --> 00:52:12,519
to stay above to get a little bit of leeway

875
00:52:13,079 --> 00:52:15,480
in your fastball, and he's also mixing in a cutter

876
00:52:15,599 --> 00:52:19,000
this year, so pitch micks plus velocity bump. I can

877
00:52:19,079 --> 00:52:22,239
buy this to an extent. I'm not buying him as

878
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:24,880
a you know, a sub two year a type of guy.

879
00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,199
But you know, if I put the same E R

880
00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:30,400
A that I that I gave for miss Rowski, which

881
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:33,000
is like three seven, I can see him being a

882
00:52:33,039 --> 00:52:36,199
three seven year eight guy and being useful because the

883
00:52:36,199 --> 00:52:37,119
whip's gonna stay down.

884
00:52:37,679 --> 00:52:42,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's fair. Actually, when you, uh you mentioned stabilizing,

885
00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:47,519
I I was looking at at something similar last week

886
00:52:47,679 --> 00:52:49,199
to try and get a field for where we were

887
00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:54,199
in the season and and shrikeouts to stabilize the the quickest,

888
00:52:55,480 --> 00:53:00,159
which I mean you knew you already said that. I'm

889
00:53:00,199 --> 00:53:02,679
just sort of reiterating that. Yeah, thank you for.

890
00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:04,760
Speaker 1: Conferring to letting the people know about just you know,

891
00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:07,119
complete bs and and saying things.

892
00:53:07,519 --> 00:53:08,280
Speaker 2: I appreciate you.

893
00:53:09,199 --> 00:53:11,480
Speaker 3: I know, I was just saying that I was actually

894
00:53:11,679 --> 00:53:13,440
you know, I was. It was interesting because I was

895
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:15,639
looking at it last week to be like, oh, like

896
00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:18,679
because exit velocity, right, So I was like, because I

897
00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:21,800
was wondering, like exit velocity and like when that stabilized.

898
00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:23,559
So I was looking at up and I was like, uh,

899
00:53:24,119 --> 00:53:26,119
that doesn't stabilize till like June.

900
00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:27,039
Speaker 2: Yeah.

901
00:53:28,519 --> 00:53:31,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, so no, because like you know, because people will

902
00:53:31,639 --> 00:53:35,320
be like, oh wow, look at that. You know, like hey, hey,

903
00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:37,840
what do you think of? Like you know this guy

904
00:53:38,519 --> 00:53:41,840
you know whoever, like say Dylan Dingler or something, you know,

905
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:46,639
some random guy And I'm like, what is this? I

906
00:53:46,679 --> 00:53:51,480
don't care what is so he has a good exit

907
00:53:51,559 --> 00:53:54,599
velocity for the last three days? I mean what, I

908
00:53:54,639 --> 00:53:54,960
don't know.

909
00:53:57,440 --> 00:54:02,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, exit velocity barrels, they're they're fun stats, They're great

910
00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:05,880
tools to use. They they do take about a half

911
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:08,800
season just because it's based on unbattered ball events and

912
00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:12,880
you you're really good one out of every three plate

913
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:15,119
appearances or one out of three at bats, I guess

914
00:54:15,119 --> 00:54:18,800
I should say, uh, you're getting to hit. So there's

915
00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:21,079
it just takes longer to get that data in there.

916
00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:25,480
So yeah, absolutely, k rate is one of those things.

917
00:54:25,519 --> 00:54:27,880
So when you see a jump early in the season

918
00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:30,760
and in a month or so in that is something

919
00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:32,840
that you can actually start to kind of bank on

920
00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:33,360
a little bit.

921
00:54:35,159 --> 00:54:37,519
Speaker 2: Can people start to bank on Gavin Williams Gray.

922
00:54:37,679 --> 00:54:40,559
Speaker 1: He has been great for Cleveland twenty nine and two

923
00:54:40,639 --> 00:54:43,679
thirds innings, two one two ere a one oh one whip.

924
00:54:43,719 --> 00:54:46,320
He is a thirty four point eight percent strikeout rate

925
00:54:47,159 --> 00:54:50,760
fourteen point eight percent walk rate is not ideal here

926
00:54:51,679 --> 00:54:54,360
he is made mixing in a sinker, throwing the slider

927
00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:57,239
a little bit more. But are you buying this Gavin

928
00:54:57,239 --> 00:54:59,840
Williams jump or is this a a sell? There's some

929
00:55:00,159 --> 00:55:01,480
he wanted some type of situation.

930
00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:06,840
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, no, I mean he's he was good last year.

931
00:55:07,159 --> 00:55:09,280
I was out on you know, I'll be honest, I

932
00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:11,239
was out on Gavin Williams coming into the year.

933
00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:12,480
Speaker 2: I was.

934
00:55:12,840 --> 00:55:15,639
Speaker 3: It looks like I was wrong. But he's the kind

935
00:55:15,679 --> 00:55:17,760
of guy where I'll I'll take the y l on

936
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:22,280
him because like his command is so awful that I

937
00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:25,440
don't really want to get mixed up with that. It's

938
00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:28,599
it's a little bit worrisome how terrible his walk grade is.

939
00:55:29,119 --> 00:55:33,400
So I I do think he is a solid pitcher.

940
00:55:33,639 --> 00:55:35,960
I probably should have been in on him, but his

941
00:55:36,079 --> 00:55:39,880
walk grade is just so terrible that I'm fine passing

942
00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:43,239
on a guy like him. But I mean he looks good.

943
00:55:43,559 --> 00:55:46,119
I mean, you know, he was good last year, So

944
00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:49,239
I don't see why he can't continue to be good

945
00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:52,960
this year. At some point I will get in on him,

946
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:57,360
and at that point he will become terrible. Moral of

947
00:55:57,440 --> 00:55:57,920
this story.

948
00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:01,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm posually great that will probably happen. So if

949
00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:04,239
you get to stay out, it'll be great as a

950
00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:07,400
Gavin Williams owner. Just just to stay away from us.

951
00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:08,039
Speaker 4: Uh.

952
00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:11,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, the walk rates our concerned. There's gonna be there's

953
00:56:11,239 --> 00:56:12,199
gonna be bad with games.

954
00:56:12,199 --> 00:56:14,199
Speaker 1: There's gonna probably be a couple of ball ups here

955
00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:17,719
just when you walk that many guys. But everything right

956
00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:20,679
now looks great on Gavin Williams. So I'm you know,

957
00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:25,719
I would enjoy it while you can. Michael Soroka, I

958
00:56:25,880 --> 00:56:28,239
wasn't sure we would ever say his name on this

959
00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:32,880
podcast again, but here we are. Gray four starts twenty two,

960
00:56:33,119 --> 00:56:36,440
two thirds innings two seven eight ear a thirty per

961
00:56:36,599 --> 00:56:39,159
point one percent strikeout rate, six and a half percent

962
00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:42,480
walk rate, the highest velocity of his career at ninety

963
00:56:42,519 --> 00:56:46,960
four point four. He also added a cutter, U is

964
00:56:47,039 --> 00:56:50,079
Michael Soroka finally breaking out a decade later?

965
00:56:50,760 --> 00:56:54,079
Speaker 3: Yeah? I think he is. I Actually I feel like

966
00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:58,199
Michael Roko is one of the my early like, first

967
00:56:58,239 --> 00:57:02,079
week of the season, make out possibilities, him and him

968
00:57:02,159 --> 00:57:05,360
and the next guy. And I like everything I see

969
00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:09,400
with Soroka. I'm I'm happy I spent a couple bucks

970
00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:12,079
in fab the first week of the season to get Soroka.

971
00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:16,400
His stats look incredible, he looks he looks like an ace.

972
00:57:16,719 --> 00:57:20,840
But you know, with a grain of salt, obviously because

973
00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:24,519
it is still April. But I mean you might get

974
00:57:24,599 --> 00:57:30,400
a solid number two from him at at worse. So,

975
00:57:30,719 --> 00:57:33,280
I yeah, I like Soroka a lot. I think he

976
00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:37,519
looks he looks great, Like everything under the hood looks

977
00:57:37,679 --> 00:57:42,119
like him, you know, breaking out. Uh so, I'm I'm

978
00:57:42,199 --> 00:57:43,559
in yeah.

979
00:57:43,559 --> 00:57:45,239
Speaker 2: I mean he's always had great command.

980
00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:49,159
Speaker 1: If you add vel plus strikeouts to great man, that's

981
00:57:49,480 --> 00:57:50,880
that's a nice, nice little thing.

982
00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:53,239
Speaker 2: And plus he adds a new pitch. I like all

983
00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:56,159
of that. I'm not saying he's legitimate completely, but I

984
00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:59,280
like everything I'm seeing. Would absolutely be running him out

985
00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:00,760
there for the future.

986
00:58:02,079 --> 00:58:04,880
Speaker 1: This next guy who utz is Emerson Hancock. Four games

987
00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:07,239
this year twenty three and two thirds d means two

988
00:58:07,360 --> 00:58:10,039
two eighty or eight O seven six twenty nine four

989
00:58:10,079 --> 00:58:13,280
percent strikeout rate, four point seven percent walk rate, he's

990
00:58:13,360 --> 00:58:16,079
throwing the slider a lot more, he's abandoned his change

991
00:58:16,119 --> 00:58:20,760
up and then his yielding positive results. Gray I've I've

992
00:58:20,920 --> 00:58:23,880
kind of low key always hated Emerson Hancock just because

993
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:26,960
I never knew where the fantasy goodness would come from.

994
00:58:27,119 --> 00:58:30,320
Speaker 2: But at uh, at his credit rates, there is plenty

995
00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:31,199
of fantasy goodness.

996
00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:37,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's a a bug. What is it is?

997
00:58:37,199 --> 00:58:44,159
Something's crawled into its crawled into my skull an earworm.

998
00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:46,119
I don't know what it is, but I have like

999
00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:50,519
from the first start of the season with Hancock and

1000
00:58:50,639 --> 00:58:53,639
I was like, everyone should pick him up. And there

1001
00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:57,960
was people in the comments talking about his uh swinging

1002
00:58:58,199 --> 00:59:01,199
strike rate or some nonsense, and I was like, guys,

1003
00:59:01,599 --> 00:59:06,079
it's literally and it's guys, trust me. This is always guys.

1004
00:59:06,239 --> 00:59:11,079
When they're pushing back, there are people saying like, oh,

1005
00:59:11,639 --> 00:59:14,800
like you know, like his swinging strike rate or some

1006
00:59:15,079 --> 00:59:19,079
nonsense the first start, and I'm like, it's like you

1007
00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:21,360
just pick him up off of waivers. Like if it

1008
00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:25,880
doesn't work, it doesn't work. So that's like the biggest

1009
00:59:26,039 --> 00:59:30,400
like if people can keep that takeaway, you know, into

1010
00:59:30,519 --> 00:59:33,519
next year, Like if a guy looks like good, if

1011
00:59:33,559 --> 00:59:36,119
he looks good in his first start. Just grab him

1012
00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:37,400
and see what happens.

1013
00:59:38,719 --> 00:59:38,880
Speaker 2: You know.

1014
00:59:38,960 --> 00:59:42,159
Speaker 3: With all that said, I think Hancock has continued to

1015
00:59:42,239 --> 00:59:47,159
look good. He's been He's not as good as sorokah,

1016
00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:50,679
not even not. I wouldn't put him on the same

1017
00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:55,920
level as Gavin Williams or Messic or Mesrowski. So he's

1018
00:59:56,039 --> 00:59:58,559
definitely the lowest out of all these guys. But he's

1019
00:59:58,760 --> 01:00:01,719
he's continued to look good, and he's got you know,

1020
01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:06,960
he's got a good park for home starts. He's you know,

1021
01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:12,079
upped his watch McCall. He's upped his uh, his strikeout

1022
01:00:12,159 --> 01:00:15,719
rate a bit. His command has always been excellent, So

1023
01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:19,920
I yeah, I like him. I'm you know, I'm in

1024
01:00:20,079 --> 01:00:23,079
as long as the ride goes and it looks like

1025
01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:26,760
for you know, for whatever reason it could it could

1026
01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:30,639
potentially last for a bit. You know, none, none of

1027
01:00:30,719 --> 01:00:33,360
his peripherals are really jumping off the pages being like,

1028
01:00:33,800 --> 01:00:36,840
oh this will definitely you know, at some point it's

1029
01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:40,519
gonna like he's gonna be bad. It doesn't like his

1030
01:00:40,639 --> 01:00:43,719
numbers aren't saying that, so I would I would get yeah,

1031
01:00:43,760 --> 01:00:48,400
I would still be buying. But he's definitely the lowest

1032
01:00:48,440 --> 01:00:50,400
of the guys we've talked about, I would say.

1033
01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:55,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, Greg Amberson Hancock before the season was throw so

1034
01:00:55,480 --> 01:00:59,239
underthought of. Nobody thought he was gonna make the rotation

1035
01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:03,159
so he wasn't even drafted in our ale only league.

1036
01:01:03,599 --> 01:01:06,119
So I picked him up the first fab run in

1037
01:01:06,159 --> 01:01:08,840
our ale onlyly because it came out he was actually

1038
01:01:08,880 --> 01:01:13,119
going to have a rotation spot. That's how crazy under

1039
01:01:13,480 --> 01:01:17,960
like undervalued I guess or or un thought of Emerson

1040
01:01:18,039 --> 01:01:18,719
Hancock was.

1041
01:01:18,920 --> 01:01:22,599
Speaker 2: But he has been great. The change changes to his

1042
01:01:22,679 --> 01:01:24,440
pitches seem to be working.

1043
01:01:24,679 --> 01:01:29,119
Speaker 1: So you know, as long as it's going, I'd absolutely

1044
01:01:29,159 --> 01:01:32,679
run him out there. You know, he is, uh, he's

1045
01:01:32,719 --> 01:01:34,320
getting a little lucky, So I don't know that I

1046
01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:37,440
necessarily think he's gonna be a two two eight eer

1047
01:01:37,519 --> 01:01:40,800
a guy or a seven six whip guy. But the

1048
01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:43,239
walk grade is down quite a bit. It's it's basically

1049
01:01:43,320 --> 01:01:46,880
cut in half. So there's there's a lot of positive

1050
01:01:46,880 --> 01:01:47,360
signs here.

1051
01:01:48,199 --> 01:01:51,039
Speaker 3: There's definitely a little bit of like with fantasy baseball,

1052
01:01:51,280 --> 01:01:53,559
and I mean with a lot of things in this

1053
01:01:53,920 --> 01:01:57,280
life that we in this thing we call life, there's

1054
01:01:57,280 --> 01:01:59,840
a lot of a lot of this, but in fantasy baseball,

1055
01:01:59,880 --> 01:02:01,559
for sure. It is like you see a lot of

1056
01:02:01,679 --> 01:02:04,320
like a little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing

1057
01:02:04,480 --> 01:02:07,760
where people are like, oh, you know his you know,

1058
01:02:07,880 --> 01:02:10,239
his swinging strike is down or something like. It's like

1059
01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:14,400
you're you're looking at stuff after like five innings, like

1060
01:02:14,639 --> 01:02:17,559
or whatever it is. It's like you just don't don't

1061
01:02:17,599 --> 01:02:21,480
worry about all that. We can worry about that when

1062
01:02:21,559 --> 01:02:23,760
it's like that, when it's time to worry about that.

1063
01:02:23,960 --> 01:02:27,920
But there's in one start. It does not make you know,

1064
01:02:28,239 --> 01:02:32,440
there's like it's very little. Uh, there's very little takeaways

1065
01:02:32,480 --> 01:02:35,920
in one start except for Jack Flattery who obviously can't

1066
01:02:35,920 --> 01:02:39,840
find the plates. Obvious. I'll deal with that.

1067
01:02:41,639 --> 01:02:43,880
Speaker 2: Hey, I can still turn around. You never know. Baseball

1068
01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:47,960
is a weird game. Let's move on to the next grey,

1069
01:02:48,440 --> 01:02:49,559
which is laid en route.

1070
01:02:50,400 --> 01:02:52,679
Speaker 1: Four games this year twenty two and two thirds Indians

1071
01:02:52,719 --> 01:02:55,159
two three eight year eight O nine seven whip twenty

1072
01:02:55,199 --> 01:02:58,320
six point strikeout right seven point eight percent walk right.

1073
01:02:58,880 --> 01:02:59,000
Speaker 3: Uh.

1074
01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:01,519
Speaker 1: He's also of throwing the cutter a little bit more.

1075
01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:04,199
This is a guy I kind of like last season.

1076
01:03:04,599 --> 01:03:06,800
The numbers at the end of the year didn't really

1077
01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:11,440
we're really sparkling, but he really pretty solidly and just

1078
01:03:11,559 --> 01:03:13,400
finished the season really poorly.

1079
01:03:15,119 --> 01:03:16,239
Speaker 2: What do you think about landa Rout?

1080
01:03:18,239 --> 01:03:20,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I would say with him is my

1081
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:23,119
biggest takeaway is like, if you were to say to

1082
01:03:23,239 --> 01:03:26,960
someone his career, he has one hundred and seventy nine

1083
01:03:27,119 --> 01:03:32,960
and two thirds career innings, is his era for his lifetime? Era?

1084
01:03:33,320 --> 01:03:38,719
Is it above or below three point six? And I

1085
01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:40,719
think most people will be like, well, it's got to

1086
01:03:40,760 --> 01:03:43,639
be above three point six, it has to be, but

1087
01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:47,920
it's not. It's not above three point six. So I mean,

1088
01:03:48,119 --> 01:03:53,239
I think he's been solid for his career. I don't

1089
01:03:53,280 --> 01:03:55,840
think you know, he doesn't have Like I think the

1090
01:03:55,920 --> 01:03:58,000
case will come down a little bit from where they

1091
01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:01,519
are right now for this season, and if he lands

1092
01:04:01,599 --> 01:04:01,920
in the.

1093
01:04:02,119 --> 01:04:06,880
Speaker 7: Uh, you know, eight and a half k per nine

1094
01:04:07,800 --> 01:04:13,440
three five five eer area where he's been for his career,

1095
01:04:14,360 --> 01:04:15,320
it's solid.

1096
01:04:15,639 --> 01:04:19,880
Speaker 3: It's probably like you're looking at taking him out of

1097
01:04:19,920 --> 01:04:24,000
the lineup against like tough matchups for shallower leagues at

1098
01:04:24,079 --> 01:04:26,519
least for like, you know, a twelve team mix league

1099
01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:30,199
and shallower there's gonna be times when you probably don't

1100
01:04:30,239 --> 01:04:33,039
want to start him. But I think he's solid in general,

1101
01:04:33,239 --> 01:04:35,360
Like he's one of those guys that's real solid for

1102
01:04:36,639 --> 01:04:39,400
you know, a deeper league for sure.

1103
01:04:41,360 --> 01:04:45,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, fifteen team league, you definitely have some value even

1104
01:04:45,280 --> 01:04:48,079
a twelve team league. He's definitely a solid streamer. And

1105
01:04:48,559 --> 01:04:51,039
if your pitching staff wasn't wasn't great coming out of

1106
01:04:51,039 --> 01:04:53,119
the draft, he could definitely be somebody you keep on

1107
01:04:53,199 --> 01:04:56,119
your roster and just think you said, maybe don't stow

1108
01:04:56,159 --> 01:04:58,880
him out there against the worst matchups, but you really

1109
01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:01,039
should should be throwing it other than aces out in

1110
01:05:01,119 --> 01:05:06,119
certain matchups. So that's really not that crazy either. Let's

1111
01:05:06,159 --> 01:05:08,119
go ahead and sagn off it up, Gray, Let's talk

1112
01:05:08,159 --> 01:05:11,440
about down here on the Saves part of the podcast.

1113
01:05:12,400 --> 01:05:15,079
Over in Philly, Johann Duran is heading to the IL.

1114
01:05:15,280 --> 01:05:18,920
They're saying is mostly a precautionary move in the meantime,

1115
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:21,159
Who do you think is the person you want here

1116
01:05:21,320 --> 01:05:22,440
to pick up the Saints?

1117
01:05:25,519 --> 01:05:27,719
Speaker 3: I mean, I would. This is the kind of this

1118
01:05:27,840 --> 01:05:30,920
is the section of the podcast where if you go

1119
01:05:31,079 --> 01:05:32,960
back to it a week later, you sound like a

1120
01:05:33,039 --> 01:05:37,000
total idiot because there's like I mean, it's so it's

1121
01:05:37,079 --> 01:05:39,480
so hard to decide, like to it's so hard to

1122
01:05:39,679 --> 01:05:43,559
give advice for bullpens because these guys are always like,

1123
01:05:44,199 --> 01:05:46,679
you know, Brad Keller looks to me like the guy

1124
01:05:46,800 --> 01:05:54,400
for the ninth Maybe it's Jose Alvarado Kirkering. Possibly I

1125
01:05:54,440 --> 01:05:58,519
would say Keller is the guy, but I mean I wouldn't.

1126
01:05:58,679 --> 01:05:59,920
I wouldn't bet too much on that.

1127
01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:03,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, Keller got the first save, so I would say

1128
01:06:03,599 --> 01:06:06,639
it's him hopefully. Elverado has been there for so long,

1129
01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:11,320
but man, he's been terrible. I suppose he's in that line,

1130
01:06:11,440 --> 01:06:14,559
but I don't think i'd want to necessarily run about.

1131
01:06:14,719 --> 01:06:18,239
Speaker 3: Not to not to disagree with my podcast host. But

1132
01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:20,400
Keller hasn't had he doesn't have a save.

1133
01:06:21,159 --> 01:06:24,000
Speaker 2: Oh okay, I thought he had one this week. Okay, well,

1134
01:06:24,079 --> 01:06:25,079
I think it would be Keller.

1135
01:06:25,519 --> 01:06:31,599
Speaker 1: Chase Schugart, Tim Maza also potentially get looks here, but

1136
01:06:32,079 --> 01:06:34,760
I would say it's Keller and based off the fat

1137
01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:38,960
BET's all most other people do as well. Over for

1138
01:06:39,079 --> 01:06:41,679
my cobbies, Daniel Polincia goes to the il because we

1139
01:06:41,760 --> 01:06:45,119
can't have nice things. Who was taking over here?

1140
01:06:46,679 --> 01:06:50,320
Speaker 3: Well, this should in theory, this should be easier because

1141
01:06:50,440 --> 01:06:54,639
he's already got a save. But Caleb Theelburr, theel Bar

1142
01:06:56,159 --> 01:06:59,320
file Bar, he got the save, so I would just

1143
01:06:59,400 --> 01:07:02,480
go him and just I would ignore the rest of

1144
01:07:02,519 --> 01:07:06,000
the guys. But you know, as I say that, probably

1145
01:07:06,119 --> 01:07:08,760
by by Friday someone else will have a save. But

1146
01:07:09,079 --> 01:07:10,960
I guess Caleb thigh Bar.

1147
01:07:12,079 --> 01:07:15,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would go with thigh Bar as well. He's

1148
01:07:15,079 --> 01:07:17,400
the you know, it could be him.

1149
01:07:17,519 --> 01:07:20,719
Speaker 1: It could also be Riley Barton, It could be Hobe Milner,

1150
01:07:22,480 --> 01:07:24,519
it could be a number of people for the Cubs here,

1151
01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:28,199
I think it's still barn first, but he is a lefty,

1152
01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:29,400
so you never know how that's.

1153
01:07:29,280 --> 01:07:31,559
Speaker 2: Gonna go over In Houston.

1154
01:07:31,639 --> 01:07:34,199
Speaker 1: Ail de la Santos gets two saves this week, So

1155
01:07:35,199 --> 01:07:37,159
are you cutting Brian and Bradio across the board?

1156
01:07:37,719 --> 01:07:41,960
Speaker 3: Yeah? Absolutely, get a brellwe off your teams. Uh, Brian

1157
01:07:42,360 --> 01:07:46,039
Brian Kings still been pretty solid, even though I think

1158
01:07:46,519 --> 01:07:51,559
I think Dalo Santo's is the is the closer until

1159
01:07:51,719 --> 01:07:56,199
Hayter returns. But King has been good, so it doesn't

1160
01:07:56,239 --> 01:07:57,840
hurt to hold on to King for now.

1161
01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:01,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, any oldellas Santo's always felt like a guy who's

1162
01:08:01,679 --> 01:08:04,400
getta end up in the bullpen. Uh. He's always st

1163
01:08:04,440 --> 01:08:06,320
good in spring training, Gray and if you could do

1164
01:08:06,480 --> 01:08:09,360
spring training and not regular season, it.

1165
01:08:09,440 --> 01:08:12,159
Speaker 2: Just feels like that is a just dead path to

1166
01:08:12,239 --> 01:08:12,719
the bullpen.

1167
01:08:14,280 --> 01:08:18,760
Speaker 1: Over in Washington, Orlando Rubolta comes up, gets the saves,

1168
01:08:18,880 --> 01:08:23,319
gets optioned back down. Just oh, just confusing this even more.

1169
01:08:24,600 --> 01:08:26,840
There's not a lot of saves in Washington. But is it?

1170
01:08:27,479 --> 01:08:29,479
Speaker 2: Is it Gus Varland, Is it Clayton Beeter?

1171
01:08:30,960 --> 01:08:35,760
Speaker 3: Yes, I think it's I think it's those two, Varland

1172
01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:38,720
or Beater. I would probably I would probably go Varlin first.

1173
01:08:40,159 --> 01:08:40,359
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1174
01:08:40,439 --> 01:08:43,079
Speaker 1: I like Varlin Right now they seem to be going

1175
01:08:43,159 --> 01:08:45,600
to him for the saves. Clayton Peters had not the

1176
01:08:45,680 --> 01:08:49,279
cleanest of starts to the season. PJ Pulland has been great,

1177
01:08:49,359 --> 01:08:51,239
but it feels like he's their multi inning guy.

1178
01:08:51,399 --> 01:08:53,560
Speaker 2: I think Brad Lord is kind of the deep, you know,

1179
01:08:53,720 --> 01:08:56,479
the dark horse here if you're looking really deep in

1180
01:08:57,079 --> 01:08:59,359
Washington for saves and you're in that kind of league.

1181
01:08:59,439 --> 01:09:03,359
Speaker 1: But uh, I feel like it's Violin and maybe bee

1182
01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:07,920
Her at some point Minnesota. The Twins have five different

1183
01:09:07,960 --> 01:09:12,720
pictures that have saved Gray. Are you gonna is it

1184
01:09:12,800 --> 01:09:15,000
even worth rostering any of them? And if he were

1185
01:09:15,039 --> 01:09:15,560
you rostering?

1186
01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:21,720
Speaker 3: Uh No, Yeah, I think someone should have said to uh.

1187
01:09:22,159 --> 01:09:26,159
Derek Shelton, their manager, the Twins manager Derek Shelton should

1188
01:09:26,159 --> 01:09:29,960
have been asked the question do you think you're smart?

1189
01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:35,520
If he answered yes, then someone should have been like, no, no,

1190
01:09:35,640 --> 01:09:40,399
you're not not, So stop trying to manage the bullpen.

1191
01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:44,039
Just choose a closer and have them be your closer.

1192
01:09:45,319 --> 01:09:46,159
Speaker 2: Some guys.

1193
01:09:48,479 --> 01:09:51,399
Speaker 3: Pick a guy for a roll. Man, just pick a

1194
01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:54,800
guy for a roll. You can't figure this out on

1195
01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:59,159
the fly, it's too much for you. I would say

1196
01:09:59,279 --> 01:10:02,279
Cole Sand, but in one of my leagues, Cole Sands

1197
01:10:02,359 --> 01:10:05,680
got dropped and I ain't picking them up, So there

1198
01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:05,920
you go.

1199
01:10:07,119 --> 01:10:09,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have him in a number of leagues because

1200
01:10:09,319 --> 01:10:12,399
he seemed like a free closer, and uh, I've looked

1201
01:10:12,399 --> 01:10:13,920
at dropping him in a few different times.

1202
01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:18,359
Speaker 2: So uh, it's it's there. It's it's possibility, you know.

1203
01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:23,279
Speaker 1: Funny enough their best bulpan arm Garrett acton this year

1204
01:10:23,439 --> 01:10:25,720
so far, he doesn't have safe He's the only person

1205
01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:28,680
who doesn't have savings. He's been the best, so uh

1206
01:10:28,840 --> 01:10:32,920
fun fun in Minnesota. Over in Sacktown Gray, the A's

1207
01:10:32,960 --> 01:10:35,079
are fun to try and figure it out too. Joe

1208
01:10:35,359 --> 01:10:37,960
Cunel seemed like he was the closer, and then they

1209
01:10:38,199 --> 01:10:40,720
brought in Mark Lighter Junior, to get a safe for

1210
01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:45,279
some reason, even though he's terrible. And then there's Hawen

1211
01:10:45,319 --> 01:10:48,600
Harrison Scott Barlow there too, So who do you want

1212
01:10:48,680 --> 01:10:49,880
here for for the a's.

1213
01:10:51,119 --> 01:10:53,279
Speaker 3: You know, I was saying, I think I said on

1214
01:10:54,239 --> 01:10:58,359
Rosball the other day that Joel Cwnan might have the

1215
01:10:58,560 --> 01:11:02,479
highest velocity for or fastball with the lowest k raid

1216
01:11:05,159 --> 01:11:08,319
in the history of baseball. I don't know if anyone's

1217
01:11:08,359 --> 01:11:12,399
ever had his sort of velocity and just done nothing

1218
01:11:12,520 --> 01:11:16,239
with it. But you know, with that said, I mean,

1219
01:11:16,319 --> 01:11:19,039
he's been successful so far, so he would be the

1220
01:11:19,079 --> 01:11:21,520
guy I would go for and I would ignore the rest.

1221
01:11:23,159 --> 01:11:25,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's probably what I'm doing as well.

1222
01:11:27,199 --> 01:11:29,479
You know, I will say Hogan Harris Scott Barlow have

1223
01:11:29,600 --> 01:11:32,840
both been pretty solid. I don't necessarily trust Scott Barlow,

1224
01:11:33,439 --> 01:11:36,079
but Hogan Harris I wouldn't mind. Adding if you're just

1225
01:11:36,119 --> 01:11:38,479
looking for a league pitcher to run out there, who

1226
01:11:38,520 --> 01:11:40,479
has a potential for a save opportunity?

1227
01:11:42,159 --> 01:11:45,439
Speaker 2: Over in Cincinnati, Emilio Pagan blows the same but gets

1228
01:11:45,479 --> 01:11:49,319
the win. Graham Ashcraft actually comes in and closes that one.

1229
01:11:50,560 --> 01:11:52,680
Speaker 1: Who is it here in Cintonies it's still Pegane and

1230
01:11:52,720 --> 01:11:54,439
who would you grab up if you have him in

1231
01:11:54,520 --> 01:11:54,960
your worry?

1232
01:11:56,039 --> 01:11:59,920
Speaker 3: Uh, Santillion is I think the clear cut back up.

1233
01:12:00,279 --> 01:12:04,479
I think Pegan is still the closer though, I think, yeah,

1234
01:12:04,560 --> 01:12:07,000
he has struggled a bit, but I think his leash

1235
01:12:07,199 --> 01:12:12,039
is a little bit longer, so I would say, you know,

1236
01:12:12,159 --> 01:12:16,119
he's actually one of the He's we've seen this movie

1237
01:12:16,239 --> 01:12:19,359
before where like, you know, the closer is terrible and

1238
01:12:19,479 --> 01:12:22,399
the guys behind him are very good, but the closer

1239
01:12:22,439 --> 01:12:26,680
who's terrible continues to get saves, so we'll see. I

1240
01:12:26,720 --> 01:12:31,600
think Pegan's still the guy. Santillion looks like the backup though, Yeah,

1241
01:12:31,680 --> 01:12:32,439
I would agree with that.

1242
01:12:33,279 --> 01:12:36,840
Speaker 1: The White Sox Sir Anthony Domingas blows to save this week.

1243
01:12:37,039 --> 01:12:39,960
He does get another save after that, though, any concern

1244
01:12:40,039 --> 01:12:42,520
on Sir Anthony and who would you pick up as

1245
01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:43,079
his backup?

1246
01:12:44,279 --> 01:12:47,000
Speaker 3: I think Leisure is probably the backup, but I think

1247
01:12:47,520 --> 01:12:48,880
Domingas is the closer.

1248
01:12:49,680 --> 01:12:52,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, I think it's Domingas. I also agree

1249
01:12:52,560 --> 01:12:54,479
at Leisure. Second, I don't know if you want to

1250
01:12:54,479 --> 01:12:57,640
speculate him further, and I would say Brian Hudson over

1251
01:12:57,720 --> 01:13:03,520
in Miami, Pete Fairbanks blows US has two clean opportunities, including.

1252
01:13:03,359 --> 01:13:06,600
Speaker 2: A save in one of those following the blown safe though,

1253
01:13:06,880 --> 01:13:10,159
so still feels like he's the guy. But who are

1254
01:13:10,199 --> 01:13:13,560
you grabbing if if you're worried in Miami?

1255
01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:17,680
Speaker 3: Uh? Actually a guy. I think we talked about on

1256
01:13:18,119 --> 01:13:22,119
like the first podcast of the new season. I think

1257
01:13:22,159 --> 01:13:26,880
we talked about Tyler Phillips. He's been great. Uh yeah,

1258
01:13:27,239 --> 01:13:30,079
we uh we were up on that way early.

1259
01:13:30,239 --> 01:13:30,439
Speaker 1: Man.

1260
01:13:30,960 --> 01:13:33,119
Speaker 3: God, so we're so smart.

1261
01:13:34,960 --> 01:13:37,520
Speaker 2: We say occasional smart things on this show.

1262
01:13:40,079 --> 01:13:44,560
Speaker 1: Tylon Phillips has been great, John King, Lake Picar, really

1263
01:13:44,600 --> 01:13:49,560
everybody except for Fairbanks, Foucher and Bender, the three guys

1264
01:13:49,600 --> 01:13:51,880
who are supposed to be the closers.

1265
01:13:52,239 --> 01:13:54,800
Speaker 2: Everybody El's been phenomenal. Those three have been terrible.

1266
01:13:56,039 --> 01:13:59,479
Speaker 3: Those are the guys I have, by the way, that's

1267
01:13:59,479 --> 01:14:02,920
who we are, terrible guys. Oh yeah, I have the

1268
01:14:03,079 --> 01:14:06,720
terrible guys like like up to my eyes and the

1269
01:14:06,840 --> 01:14:07,399
terrible guy.

1270
01:14:09,640 --> 01:14:10,640
Speaker 2: Oh so there you go.

1271
01:14:10,800 --> 01:14:12,840
Speaker 1: There's I mean, I still think it's Pete Fairbanks. Like

1272
01:14:12,880 --> 01:14:16,960
I said, he got two opportunities after I wouldn't hate

1273
01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:18,680
picking up Tyler Phillips.

1274
01:14:18,359 --> 01:14:20,479
Speaker 2: Though he's been he's been so good.

1275
01:14:20,880 --> 01:14:23,640
Speaker 1: He's getting strikeouts, he's getting you know, a good amount

1276
01:14:23,640 --> 01:14:26,960
of innings for a reliever as well, so you could

1277
01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:29,800
do worse than speculating on him or even Lake McCall,

1278
01:14:29,840 --> 01:14:31,680
who has been great for like the last season and

1279
01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:32,880
then into this one.

1280
01:14:33,800 --> 01:14:36,520
Speaker 2: Give the people some way for wire bats, right, Okay?

1281
01:14:36,640 --> 01:14:37,079
Speaker 3: Cool man?

1282
01:14:37,319 --> 01:14:37,960
Speaker 2: Uh so?

1283
01:14:38,520 --> 01:14:43,039
Speaker 3: Uh, Jeremiah Jackson uh been hot. I don't know how

1284
01:14:43,159 --> 01:14:47,960
long Jackson holiday. I guess uh he had a broken

1285
01:14:48,079 --> 01:14:53,600
hammetbone and should have went to lynd'or or Corbyn Carroll's

1286
01:14:53,640 --> 01:14:57,000
doctor because I don't know what that was Jackson all day.

1287
01:14:57,079 --> 01:15:01,680
But anyway, Jeremiah Jackson's been hot. Oswald Praz has been

1288
01:15:01,760 --> 01:15:04,079
really hot. That might have a lot to do with

1289
01:15:04,239 --> 01:15:07,439
the fact that they were in Yankee Stadium but been hot.

1290
01:15:08,800 --> 01:15:13,920
Luke Rayley, Uh, Mariner's been hot. Marcelo Zuna is showing

1291
01:15:14,079 --> 01:15:17,319
life there in Pittsburgh. I Uh, I don't think it's

1292
01:15:17,319 --> 01:15:20,880
gonna last long, but he has been hot. Josh Young

1293
01:15:21,439 --> 01:15:25,119
in Texas been very hot. Johnny uh de Luca Johnny

1294
01:15:25,359 --> 01:15:28,680
Johnny de Luca. Uh, he's been hot. Sounds like he's

1295
01:15:28,720 --> 01:15:32,520
in the mafia. Okay. Nolan Aernato is actually shown life. Wow,

1296
01:15:32,560 --> 01:15:35,319
who would have thought it? Carson Kelly has been hot,

1297
01:15:35,840 --> 01:15:43,039
and Mason Wynn, Jake Magnum, Dalton Rushing, and finally ever

1298
01:15:43,239 --> 01:15:49,840
since Perea has been hot White Sox outfielder. I don't

1299
01:15:49,840 --> 01:15:52,439
think it's gonna continue. Actually, all the guys I mentioned

1300
01:15:52,520 --> 01:15:56,239
probably won't continue, not just the not just the ones

1301
01:15:56,279 --> 01:16:00,520
I point out. They're all probably probably just hotchmi potatoes.

1302
01:16:00,560 --> 01:16:04,079
