1
00:00:20,519 --> 00:00:23,120
Speaker 1: Quenean societations. Everyone to Tward twelve someone in the Fantasy

2
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:27,000
Baseball Live. Today is June twenty sixth, about nine twenty

3
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:31,440
in the morning. Timmy, we are early morning on Friday.

4
00:00:31,519 --> 00:00:32,840
How are you doing?

5
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,359
Speaker 2: I am doing just great. I've had a busy week.

6
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,520
We why we're article. I think I've got eleven or

7
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:47,520
twelve names already. Wow, some I've written up. I'm the

8
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:52,359
word efficient, okay, and yours truly usually ends up being

9
00:00:52,399 --> 00:00:56,520
sort of oxymoronish in nature. But I'm on the ball

10
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:58,920
this week, which means that I'll get it India fifteen

11
00:00:58,960 --> 00:00:59,520
minutes late.

12
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:05,439
Speaker 1: Anyway, I am not holding my breath that it'll get

13
00:01:05,519 --> 00:01:09,840
here early. So Tim told me I had We had

14
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,400
plans last night. Tim and I do a lot of scouting,

15
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,359
so I've just been in a different world here. But

16
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,680
we went and saw a at our. It was like

17
00:01:20,719 --> 00:01:25,920
a nonprofit of entitt Our little community performing arts center,

18
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,760
and they had a historian talking about the as we're

19
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,480
getting ready for two hundred and fiftieth anniversary, kind of

20
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,239
talking about the Revolutionary War. So we went and saw

21
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,680
that had dinner, so I didn't check the wires before

22
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,159
I went to pet last night and Cooper.

23
00:01:41,079 --> 00:01:46,480
Speaker 2: Ingle got called up. Yeah I am. I'm starting looking

24
00:01:46,519 --> 00:01:51,200
forward to seeing what Cleveland does with that. But with

25
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:57,319
the injuries to Ramirez and also to Angel Martinez who

26
00:01:57,359 --> 00:02:01,400
was having a nice year, Cleveland needs some offense in

27
00:02:01,439 --> 00:02:04,120
the worst of ways, and they're not gonna Yeah Koo

28
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:08,000
Watson might give them something, but there's a lot of

29
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,039
holes in that lineup. Yeah, you've got you know who

30
00:02:12,199 --> 00:02:15,199
Brochio in the three spot, Hoskins and por Schiemen in

31
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:19,479
the fifth bock watch and yeah, there's some holes there.

32
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,879
So it'd be interesting to see what happens with Engel,

33
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,439
whether he's going to find a way to slide into

34
00:02:25,479 --> 00:02:31,080
the dh slock catch a game. Maybe. I'm just looking

35
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:32,639
forward to seeing the kid getting a shot.

36
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's good, he's athletic, he's he doesn't have a

37
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:41,000
lot of power. It's average power eighty nine. That's the eight.

38
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,639
What was his xfsis looking at his x eighty nine

39
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,960
point three max off one oh seven. It's got a

40
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,280
huge launch is seventeen point eight, So I mean he's

41
00:02:50,319 --> 00:02:54,800
got a fifteen eighteen home runs, maybe twenty. It's gonna

42
00:02:55,039 --> 00:02:57,159
He's always walked to Ton, so it's a high one

43
00:02:57,199 --> 00:03:00,800
base percentage. That really helps in one base percentage and

44
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,080
it's average strikeout, so he's he's hit first over power.

45
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,639
And I mean they got Patrick Stewart, so I don't

46
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,360
know how much he's going to play at ketchup, but

47
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,719
at least this year he's CATRA eligible.

48
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,479
Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't know what the what the plan will be,

49
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:21,240
but when you look at the the outfield, you've got

50
00:03:21,439 --> 00:03:25,800
watched and Kwan in the left and PD helping in

51
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:34,599
the center field. So yeah, yeah, yeah, I was waiting.

52
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:36,639
I was waiting for you to expand upon that, but

53
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,039
you said, I think we need to know, right.

54
00:03:39,319 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was actually I was actually trying to look

55
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,759
up Khali Watson's I mean, this guy's been a strikeout machine.

56
00:03:44,879 --> 00:03:49,919
So he hasn't done anything strikeout right since he got

57
00:03:49,919 --> 00:03:53,439
caught up, And I don't know, I don't think there's anything.

58
00:03:53,479 --> 00:03:55,520
There is speed and power, but is it going to

59
00:03:55,599 --> 00:03:57,360
hit it off? And that's always been the big question

60
00:03:57,439 --> 00:03:57,840
with him.

61
00:03:58,719 --> 00:04:01,719
Speaker 2: Mm hmm, yeah, exactly when you strike out at the

62
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,800
rates that he has it something like that is not

63
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,000
going to be fixed overnight.

64
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 1: Now, who who did you say? I didn't pay attention

65
00:04:12,639 --> 00:04:19,079
a PD helping. Okay, wow, yeah, third round draft pick. Yeah, yeah, well,

66
00:04:19,399 --> 00:04:19,839
I mean.

67
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:26,720
Speaker 2: He's a par I was going to say, yeah, it's

68
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,439
not a strong offensive lineup.

69
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 1: No, I mean p D. Helpin when he was when

70
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,560
he was drafted, it was typical Rays kind of guy. Right,

71
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:39,000
it was a hit over anything else. And he's not

72
00:04:39,199 --> 00:04:41,079
hit as much as I thought he would. But he's

73
00:04:41,079 --> 00:04:44,480
showing no power, average speed. I don't I mean, I

74
00:04:44,519 --> 00:04:45,680
don't think there's anything there.

75
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:51,079
Speaker 2: No that they only have one right handed bat. Rookio

76
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,920
is a switch hitter, and so is Patrick Bailey. Who

77
00:04:53,959 --> 00:04:56,120
cares about Patrick Bailey. He's not there for the hits.

78
00:04:56,360 --> 00:05:00,319
But other than Ree Hoskins, it's a solid, solid left

79
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:04,680
handed lineup to boot. Not that goopra Engle's going to

80
00:05:04,759 --> 00:05:08,639
solve that problem because he's another left handed bad but uh,

81
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:15,560
definitely Cleveland can use all the offense and offensive potential

82
00:05:15,639 --> 00:05:17,199
that they can muster right down.

83
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm surprised that Gabriel Rise is not playing more

84
00:05:20,439 --> 00:05:22,879
than he is, because I mean, at least he's got

85
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:28,079
some offensive upside, and there's other guys and Brian Rochio

86
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,000
is actually having a decent season, but there's not much

87
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:34,680
offensive upside there. I mean, Steven Kwan has been terrible.

88
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,360
I mean, I know why they're putting him in because

89
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,879
he has been good, but there's no offensive up. I mean,

90
00:05:39,199 --> 00:05:42,519
you get much past Travis Bozzano and there's just nothing there.

91
00:05:43,399 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, Menzardo can hit the ball a long way, but

92
00:05:46,199 --> 00:05:50,399
other than Menzardo and Reese Hoskin, there's no sluggers in

93
00:05:50,439 --> 00:05:51,680
that lineup at all? Is there?

94
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 1: Yeah? But I mean it's aren't striking out a third

95
00:05:53,879 --> 00:05:56,199
of the time, and he's got nine home runs, and

96
00:05:56,759 --> 00:05:59,319
what's his extra velocity here? Let's take a look here

97
00:06:02,639 --> 00:06:05,600
where you go? Oh, I got to go over to

98
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,759
Baseball Savant for that. They don't for some reason in

99
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,240
Triple A they put it in fangrass, but they don't

100
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,720
put it there for Manzardo. Let's see what Manzarda is

101
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:19,079
doing this season. Manzarto, this guy I thought was going

102
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,360
to be hit headover power. Now he's trying to hit

103
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:26,759
everything five hundred feet average exilocity of forty four percent,

104
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,360
eighty nine miles an hour. So he just doesn't hit

105
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,800
the ball that hard. It's all leverage. So, which is

106
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,040
what I thought when he was coming through the minor leagues,

107
00:06:34,439 --> 00:06:36,560
which is, you know, he always was able to hit

108
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,240
the ball, but it's I mean, he's just there's a

109
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,279
ton of chase. He's whiffing, striking out all the time,

110
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,240
a man. Twenty seven home runs he hit last year

111
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,879
was all leverage. I would be very leary of him

112
00:06:48,959 --> 00:06:50,319
getting close to repeating that.

113
00:06:51,399 --> 00:06:54,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, that's that's fair enough. But he's a big buffer.

114
00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:05,000
I egal, yeah, wow, yeah, yeah.

115
00:07:03,199 --> 00:07:06,319
Speaker 1: I don't get it. Yeah, I mean I get Look,

116
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,439
this is what you do when your development philosophy is

117
00:07:09,639 --> 00:07:14,360
hit first over anything else power and they lose Jose

118
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:18,079
Ramirez and that team looks awful, I mean awful.

119
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,959
Speaker 2: Yeah. They they're almost on the verge of contending with

120
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,800
the you know, the Angels and some of the other

121
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,959
lower to your type teams. Yeah, and they don't have

122
00:07:30,079 --> 00:07:34,800
anything at Triple A other than well Cooper Angle, Ralphie Velaskaz.

123
00:07:34,839 --> 00:07:36,199
We'll probably see him at some point.

124
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,079
Speaker 1: I mean at least Ralphi Alaskas hits the ball hard,

125
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,040
so that would be an interesting guy for them to

126
00:07:41,079 --> 00:07:43,560
call up. I mean, look, I've been seeing it for

127
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,959
a long time. I think you would. You're in concurrence here,

128
00:07:46,079 --> 00:07:49,360
is I mean, you've got it. They've got enough guys

129
00:07:49,399 --> 00:07:52,040
that can get on base, they need to have some

130
00:07:52,079 --> 00:07:54,160
guys that can hit them in. I mean it's otherwise,

131
00:07:54,199 --> 00:07:56,639
it's yeah, I mean you're just playing small ball the

132
00:07:56,639 --> 00:07:58,000
whole time. It just doesn't work.

133
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,879
Speaker 2: No, some at some point in time, and I am

134
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,879
sort of surprised. I haven't checked Ramirez's walk rates, but

135
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,160
I would have a tendency if you know, if I

136
00:08:09,319 --> 00:08:13,600
was the opposition to any time you get Jose Ramirez

137
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,240
up with two on base, I have a tendency if

138
00:08:16,439 --> 00:08:18,160
you know, one or two on did you walk him?

139
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,360
Take a bat out of his hands. Yeah, let somebody

140
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:23,519
else do the damage. The odds have got to be

141
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,399
in your favor versus Ramirez.

142
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:29,399
Speaker 1: Right, So I'm assuming Cooper Angle will be on your

143
00:08:29,399 --> 00:08:31,920
waiver wire, a guy that you're going to pick up.

144
00:08:33,919 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 2: Yes, that is a fair assumption.

145
00:08:36,519 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think he's gonna get on base a lot

146
00:08:39,919 --> 00:08:42,600
and hit a few home runs, and I think he's

147
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:43,399
going to be okay.

148
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, I haven't seen I haven't seen what Cleveland's

149
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,480
I had to say about it, but I would like

150
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,960
to think he's up for a long the long haul

151
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,720
versus you know, a short term. It's not like he's

152
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,639
a kid anyway. He's twenty four going on twenty five. Yeah, okay,

153
00:09:02,759 --> 00:09:05,879
so yeah, it's it's time they gave him a look

154
00:09:05,919 --> 00:09:09,120
to see what he can do. And hey, any any

155
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,759
power numbers are definitely going to help when you look

156
00:09:11,759 --> 00:09:12,519
at that lineup.

157
00:09:12,919 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I just and he's not a power hitter, right,

158
00:09:16,639 --> 00:09:19,360
I mean, he's a hit first guy that has a

159
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,919
little bit of power. Just want to make sure everybody

160
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,399
realizes that. I mean, the data supports that, the swing

161
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:28,320
supports that. So I mean when you try to yoke everything,

162
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,600
it's it's the same thing as Manzarto. I mean, you

163
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,200
can hit some home runs, but it's it's not going

164
00:09:33,279 --> 00:09:34,120
to be consistent.

165
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 2: So yeah, I think the difference potentially Ingle versus Benzarro.

166
00:09:40,399 --> 00:09:43,639
Ingle's got a better hit tool, or at least a

167
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,799
better He's demonstrated a better hit tool in the minors

168
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,480
thus far than what we've seen from Mansaro in the bigs.

169
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,159
Speaker 1: Well, again, hit pretty well when he was in the

170
00:09:53,159 --> 00:09:55,039
minor leagues, and then he got to the major leagues

171
00:09:55,039 --> 00:09:57,559
and try to become a home run hitter by average,

172
00:09:57,639 --> 00:10:00,519
adding leverage, and it'd be interesting to see what Cooper

173
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,840
Ringle does, I mean, does he is hard for him?

174
00:10:02,879 --> 00:10:05,360
Had more leverage than what what did I say? Eighteen degrees?

175
00:10:05,399 --> 00:10:09,240
I mean that's a pill swing as it is, you know,

176
00:10:09,399 --> 00:10:11,000
I mean I don't him.

177
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, gotta yeah something, you gotta gotta do something. Yeah, yeah,

178
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:21,519
that's almost I'm as curious as what's Okamoto's launch angle.

179
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:27,960
It's gotta be way up there. You love you, but

180
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:32,960
you got eighteen He's he's the blue Jay's hero thus far.

181
00:10:33,879 --> 00:10:37,759
Speaker 1: All right, Okamoto is his launch angle seventeen degrees, So

182
00:10:37,879 --> 00:10:39,960
it's not even as much as Coop ring It's it's high.

183
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,559
I mean, seventeen degrees is very high. His bat speed

184
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,440
is big, I mean ninety two point one, so he

185
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:51,120
hits the ball really hard. Yeah, he want of leverage.

186
00:10:51,159 --> 00:10:52,399
I mean that that guy's gonna hit a lot of

187
00:10:52,399 --> 00:10:53,360
home runs.

188
00:10:53,759 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, he had one last night the Dead Center. It

189
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,600
was right over the four hundred foot signs.

190
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 1: So yeah, he strikes out too much though, So it's

191
00:11:04,039 --> 00:11:06,600
what it is. It's two forty or thirty home runs.

192
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:11,399
That's who the guy gets. It looks like yeah, yeah.

193
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 2: That's okay, Yeah I can live with that.

194
00:11:13,639 --> 00:11:17,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, So Tim also was talking to me before we

195
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,399
got on the air about looking at a lot of

196
00:11:19,399 --> 00:11:23,960
your teams and just looking at the standings and not

197
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:28,120
seeing a lot of teams running away with things that

198
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,200
there is they're bunched up. We looked at this TOT

199
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,159
worst team and Tim's got seventy seven, but the leaders

200
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:38,360
only got ninety five with really bunched up in the nineties.

201
00:11:38,399 --> 00:11:41,080
So what did you talk to me about what your

202
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:42,840
research kind of yielded on all of that.

203
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 2: Well, I'm where I'm seeing is usually by this time

204
00:11:48,279 --> 00:11:52,240
of the year in redraft leagues, you've got you've got

205
00:11:52,279 --> 00:11:56,360
a pack of three four teams, okay, that have moved

206
00:11:56,919 --> 00:12:00,000
into the one hundred plus point range. Usually somebody's said

207
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:04,320
in one fifteen to one twenty, solid numbers. And that

208
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:09,039
still is occurring, but not at the rate I've seen

209
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,840
in the past. I've got I've got three leagues where

210
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:20,000
in toking one of them in TOT. Injuries have struck

211
00:12:20,039 --> 00:12:24,559
across the board. You know, everybody, you know, I'm looking

212
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,159
at the teams in the top five that they all

213
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:34,879
have flaws, okay, And I think quite often at this

214
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:40,200
time of the year, we see, yeah, players not abandoning

215
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:44,519
their teams but not playing with the same zealous approach.

216
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:49,039
You know that that April brings. Right in April, everybody's

217
00:12:48,759 --> 00:12:53,080
in it to win it, right Well, when I'm looking

218
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:57,080
at it right now, in TOTE, there are twelve teams,

219
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,240
okay that there within twenty five points the first place

220
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,399
at the at the end of June, with one, two, three, four,

221
00:13:04,519 --> 00:13:07,720
five in the nineties, four in the eighties and four

222
00:13:07,759 --> 00:13:12,240
in the seventies. Everybody is still in theory in it

223
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,639
to win it. And I just think that with the

224
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:21,559
injuries this year, the effectiveness of some players, uh, there

225
00:13:21,639 --> 00:13:25,600
is there's opportunities. I I look at I look at

226
00:13:25,639 --> 00:13:27,320
tout and I see a lot of people still have

227
00:13:27,399 --> 00:13:30,840
potential to win it. So even though it's starting to

228
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,879
get a little bit later, take a look at your teams,

229
00:13:33,919 --> 00:13:36,159
take a look at the teams up at the top,

230
00:13:36,279 --> 00:13:40,720
see how much you can potentially gain back. You might

231
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:46,159
not be out of it as you would historically because

232
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,360
of what has gone on in the game this year.

233
00:13:48,519 --> 00:13:52,960
So yeah, just give everything a really good look, and

234
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:56,519
again with a perspective that it's this year. It's not

235
00:13:56,759 --> 00:13:59,519
last year and the year before, because things are different

236
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:01,240
this year, they very much sole.

237
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:04,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was trying to confirm it with some of

238
00:14:04,399 --> 00:14:07,159
the leagues. I mean I could not, but most of

239
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,679
the leagues I play in our dynasty leagues, and you've

240
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:14,279
got typically people running away with it and the competition

241
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:18,159
is for second and third. But right I think that's

242
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,399
it makes sense, right with all the injuries and that

243
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:24,480
it's unless you've just got incredibly lucky and have had

244
00:14:24,919 --> 00:14:28,120
two or three of your guys, your core guys healthy

245
00:14:28,159 --> 00:14:30,759
for the whole season. I mean you're probably scrambling like

246
00:14:30,799 --> 00:14:32,000
everybody else's.

247
00:14:32,679 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 2: Well. Yeah, some teams, Yeah, some teams have got pitching

248
00:14:37,159 --> 00:14:39,919
and no hitting. Some got hitting, no bitching. Some have

249
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:44,519
got saved, some don't. Some have no stolen bases. Yeah.

250
00:14:44,879 --> 00:14:47,600
The team that's in seventh right now, and he's won

251
00:14:47,639 --> 00:14:50,320
the league three dimes, a great player. Rose has got

252
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,120
three points in sholing bases, three points in the er.

253
00:14:53,919 --> 00:14:59,919
But he's dominating the power numbers and sacrificing his ear.

254
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,240
We aim whip for for wins. It's you said, a

255
00:15:03,279 --> 00:15:05,360
lot of a lot of teams have flaws this year,

256
00:15:05,639 --> 00:15:11,159
and I wouldn't be backing off in my approach right now.

257
00:15:11,279 --> 00:15:15,039
I think over the next month, month and a half.

258
00:15:15,639 --> 00:15:18,960
There's opportunities there. Try and seize the moment and do

259
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:19,759
what you can with it.

260
00:15:20,559 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I think that's wise. I mean people

261
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,720
should be trying to play their trying to play their

262
00:15:25,799 --> 00:15:28,120
their league out the whole time. But I mean I

263
00:15:28,159 --> 00:15:30,639
get it. Yeah, sim and I we've been playing this

264
00:15:30,679 --> 00:15:33,399
a long time, and we see it with our popularity

265
00:15:33,399 --> 00:15:37,159
of our show it it it peaks and run around

266
00:15:37,279 --> 00:15:41,159
spring training and and as we're getting into April and May,

267
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:46,799
and then people start to stop listening. Yeah, their teams

268
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,279
stink and they feel like they have no shots, so

269
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,039
they yeah, so we get it.

270
00:15:51,879 --> 00:15:56,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then next week's July. Yeah, everybody's everybody's switching

271
00:15:56,320 --> 00:16:00,360
into football mode. Well not I.

272
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:05,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're all switching into soccer mode here. So everything

273
00:16:05,679 --> 00:16:09,279
is World Cup. Last night the US played and uh

274
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,879
you know we uh we watched a little bit of it.

275
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,200
I think they I mean, you play a whole game

276
00:16:14,279 --> 00:16:18,240
and you draw it two to two, and it's anti climatic,

277
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:22,600
isn't it. That's problem with with football or soccer.

278
00:16:23,639 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, don't you go to a shodo after that? I

279
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,080
think Turkey won three two on the shootout or whatever.

280
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 1: But did they want to shootout? I didn't. I didn't

281
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:31,600
see that.

282
00:16:33,159 --> 00:16:35,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe maybe they played guys. I don't know. I

283
00:16:35,679 --> 00:16:36,240
don't fall over.

284
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 1: I think they I think they shoot out when it's

285
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,360
in the I don't know the total rules. When you

286
00:16:41,399 --> 00:16:45,799
get to the single elimination round, which starts soon, then

287
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,840
it's shootouts, which is exciting. So but h but anyway,

288
00:16:49,039 --> 00:16:51,919
it's you know, everybody's got soccer fever. And here, Timmy,

289
00:16:52,039 --> 00:16:53,279
let's talk baseball. My friend.

290
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,399
Speaker 2: We got uh, we had a trade.

291
00:16:55,519 --> 00:16:58,559
Speaker 1: We uh we are what we're only five weeks away

292
00:16:58,600 --> 00:16:59,759
from the trade deadline, by the.

293
00:16:59,759 --> 00:17:01,919
Speaker 2: Way, Yes it's coming up.

294
00:17:02,399 --> 00:17:06,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the Cubs acquired David Peterson from the Mets

295
00:17:07,079 --> 00:17:10,279
for minor league Cole mathis first basement, third base one

296
00:17:10,279 --> 00:17:14,000
and we can talk about him. But it it appears,

297
00:17:14,039 --> 00:17:16,319
and I rode a long post for our Patreon members

298
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,599
that this is the first sign of the Mets throwing

299
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:24,279
in the towels. They have not heard Tim McLeod's analysis

300
00:17:24,319 --> 00:17:27,319
that because all the injuries, you're still in it. The Mets,

301
00:17:28,039 --> 00:17:30,079
I'm guessing, don't feel like they're in it.

302
00:17:31,599 --> 00:17:37,400
Speaker 2: That was last week. Yeah, yeah, they're not in it

303
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,519
as much as they were in it outside.

304
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:43,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a bad team and it shouldn't be. I

305
00:17:43,039 --> 00:17:45,680
mean it's crazy with all the name players. I mean

306
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:50,319
they got Moon Soto and it's just awful team.

307
00:17:50,519 --> 00:17:56,480
Speaker 2: Well yeah, they've got one Soto, but they've also not

308
00:17:56,599 --> 00:18:01,960
had Francisco Lindor. Okay, Freddie Perrault has been a huge

309
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:09,960
disappointment at Nolan McLain has been displayed. But disappointment yeah yeah,

310
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,759
yeah yeah. And Sean Manay is never healthy. He's got

311
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:17,640
like you know, he's one pitch away from a Nils did.

312
00:18:17,839 --> 00:18:22,440
That's their rotation right now. McClain, Maney, Maniah and Parolta. Yeah,

313
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,559
you can't win with that. I don't care how much

314
00:18:24,599 --> 00:18:25,960
offense you've got.

315
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 1: You there's not much offense. Just that's just it. I

316
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,759
mean Ben just showing signs. I mean Patty is the

317
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,559
vis I mean a lot of these young prospects that

318
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:39,240
I thought they could be full time regulars, I mean

319
00:18:39,279 --> 00:18:39,799
they're just not.

320
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 2: No, they they're struggling. They They've got, of course, the

321
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:50,960
the two big bets Okay and Sodo and Lindor, but

322
00:18:51,079 --> 00:18:56,640
again Lindor hasn't played. He's back now, I believe, But yes,

323
00:18:56,799 --> 00:19:01,400
bulbs Bulbashett hasn't. Yeah, he's nothing to write home about

324
00:19:01,519 --> 00:19:05,200
at all. I like what we're seeing from Carson Benge

325
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:08,000
and aj Ewing, I think is going to be a

326
00:19:08,039 --> 00:19:12,799
good ballplayer. But again you get Jared Young and Dadi

327
00:19:13,039 --> 00:19:18,640
and Ronnie Muricio and Banjos M J. Melindus, Like really, yeah,

328
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:23,880
there's throw that in with starting pitching and yeah, they

329
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:25,240
get they got problems.

330
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 1: It's it's it's remarkable that Boba Schett signing. I mean

331
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,200
I didn't get it at the time. I mean, he's

332
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,400
had something games. In fact, he had a remarkable game

333
00:19:36,519 --> 00:19:39,160
last week. I can't remember, but it was five or

334
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,640
five or something like that. So I mean he's had flashes,

335
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,480
but overall it's not been very good. It's not been

336
00:19:43,519 --> 00:19:46,279
a forty two million dollar worth of player, which they

337
00:19:46,319 --> 00:19:49,720
could have signed two guys for him, and yeah if

338
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:52,400
the other guys, I mean as a nice ballplayer totally,

339
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:56,440
Carson Binge is a nice ballplayer, and together with Loansota

340
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,640
and Francisco Lindor, you would think it'd be stronger and

341
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,480
maybe with lindorback will finally start to score some runs.

342
00:20:02,519 --> 00:20:04,839
They just not have enough pitching. But anyway, Tommy, they

343
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:09,880
moved David Peterson to the Cubs. What do you think

344
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:11,799
about David Peterson going to the Cubs.

345
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 2: Well, I don't see David Peterson as being a difference maker.

346
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,000
But he's got a six h ninety ar a four

347
00:20:22,039 --> 00:20:24,759
eighty three x a year. A look at the stat

348
00:20:24,839 --> 00:20:28,440
cast page. It's other than the ground ball rates, and

349
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:34,480
I think, yeah, it's pretty well solid blue. Okay. Uh,

350
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,319
blue is good if you're in a Canadian bar, okay,

351
00:20:37,319 --> 00:20:43,359
at one o'clock in the morning. But other than that now,

352
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,920
and the thing with Peterson is if you're if you're

353
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:52,759
looking for a spark, okay, all you have to do

354
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:57,920
really is give his you know, whatever stap or writer

355
00:20:58,079 --> 00:21:02,519
you choose to, you give it a quick look. His

356
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,319
high watermark was last year at one hundred and sixty

357
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:08,119
eight and two thirds innings, and he posted a four

358
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,880
to twenty two year in a one thirty seven whip

359
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,960
in one nine games. Other than that, the three years

360
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,400
prior to that, you're looking at one hundred and twenty

361
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,920
one innings, one hundred and elevens one hundred and five

362
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:24,200
innings his career. His career whip is one thirty nine, okay,

363
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:31,240
He's hitable, Yeah, blows walks, Yeah, he keeps the ball

364
00:21:31,279 --> 00:21:33,839
in the park for the most part. But I don't

365
00:21:34,039 --> 00:21:36,559
think it really matters. I think he's a number five

366
00:21:36,599 --> 00:21:42,359
type starter, and hey, the Cubs need pitching, so yeah,

367
00:21:42,799 --> 00:21:45,039
they'll they'll use that number five starter. But I don't

368
00:21:45,039 --> 00:21:49,519
think there's anything in his profile, okay that indicates anything

369
00:21:49,599 --> 00:21:52,079
more than that. So it's to me, it's sort of

370
00:21:52,079 --> 00:21:55,559
a fringy fringy type deal.

371
00:21:56,079 --> 00:21:58,880
Speaker 1: Yeah. When I wrote to our Patreon members and did

372
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:00,960
the research, I think he could do what he did

373
00:22:01,079 --> 00:22:04,119
last season, right, it was a you know, mid fors

374
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,680
expected ray. It's got a mid fs expected era this

375
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:08,119
this year.

376
00:22:08,319 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 2: I think he could do that, right.

377
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: And but it's that's it. He's a number four or

378
00:22:15,039 --> 00:22:18,319
five starter. That's if he's healthy, can eat some innings

379
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:18,680
for you.

380
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,079
Speaker 2: But yeah, exact, that's it.

381
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 1: I think that. But you know, tend me there and

382
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:26,079
we talked about the Mets. I mean, the Cups are

383
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,720
desperate need for pitching, so I mean, you have to

384
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:30,400
you have to make that move.

385
00:22:31,319 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 2: Well, and and let's face it, I think it's a

386
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:40,119
a sign of the times with all the injuries this year. Okay,

387
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,880
teams are having trouble in a big way, cobbling together

388
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,039
a rotation. You know how many how many games lately

389
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,920
have you seen with an opener? Well, that's not going

390
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:53,759
to get any better moving forward, is it.

391
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,599
Speaker 1: Yeah? I mean that the opener is just uh yeah,

392
00:22:57,920 --> 00:22:59,759
that's just the way it is in baseball now.

393
00:23:00,839 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's not going to change. You look at yeah,

394
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,640
you look at the Cubs rotation. Uh you know, imn

395
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:17,279
Auga is sad, Matthew Boyd, Colin Ray, David Peterson, there's yeah, yeah,

396
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:22,160
and and right now with Ben Brown going on the

397
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:26,200
aisle with a strain neck yesterday, and Cabrera is dealing,

398
00:23:26,279 --> 00:23:31,359
He's on the aisle with a strained hamstring. Jamison tie

399
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,960
On is the same way hands hamstring. Ky Horton has

400
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:38,000
gone for the year, and Justin steele Is is struggling

401
00:23:38,079 --> 00:23:42,440
and returning from yeah, the revision repair.

402
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're not stopping with David Peterson. They you know,

403
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,599
they've they want to compete. They're going to have to

404
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:51,279
go for more. So who gets Peterson starts in New York?

405
00:23:51,319 --> 00:23:54,279
I'm as simming tongue.

406
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:59,559
Speaker 2: Uh, well it's tongue plus. How does that sound? I

407
00:24:00,279 --> 00:24:02,400
think you know, when you've only got three starters right now,

408
00:24:02,519 --> 00:24:05,039
one of them Sean and I A. Okay, you're gonna

409
00:24:05,079 --> 00:24:08,880
see lots of arms coming up, you know from from

410
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:16,319
Triple A tong is one Wenninger. Anybody who can throw

411
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,440
the ball we're going to see at some point in time.

412
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:23,960
Jack Thornton Wenaer. I yeah, they have to be bringing

413
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:25,519
people up. It's as simple as that.

414
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,079
Speaker 1: And could I sing he got pushed to the bullpen?

415
00:24:29,759 --> 00:24:32,920
Talk about a guy that's just been absolutely brutal this season,

416
00:24:33,759 --> 00:24:37,240
like you're the Asian expert. I mean, I thought you

417
00:24:37,279 --> 00:24:39,440
were pretty bullish on could I sing it? When he

418
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:43,240
was originally signed, he had I was season in this.

419
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,000
I think it was a sophomore year. Wasn't when the

420
00:24:46,079 --> 00:24:49,279
first year he was signed. But it's in general it's

421
00:24:49,279 --> 00:24:49,880
not been good.

422
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 2: Now you know. The problem there is health, Okay, Yeah,

423
00:24:57,079 --> 00:25:00,559
the ghost forkball is gave up. The ghost. Injuries have

424
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,480
ruined what was once a solid starter. In my opinion,

425
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,799
it's it's health related and he hasn't been healthy since

426
00:25:07,839 --> 00:25:14,680
for his second season. And yeah, he's Yeah, there were

427
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,759
some health concerns when he came over. He looked great

428
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,680
when he was healthy, but No, he's always walked.

429
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,839
Speaker 1: Too many guys though. Yeah, even when he was healthy

430
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:26,359
and he was still walking too many.

431
00:25:26,839 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean he.

432
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:32,039
Speaker 1: Just I'm assuming even a dynasty league's no reason to

433
00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:33,559
have code I singer.

434
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 2: Uh no, no, there's no reason. I was just I

435
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,480
was just trying to think in the Hope City put

436
00:25:45,519 --> 00:25:47,799
together a nice run at some point in time. But

437
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:52,119
that's I think that's more a dream than a potential reality.

438
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,720
Rich So yeah, I would say it's time to walk away.

439
00:25:56,039 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 1: And then the final question is, give me the three

440
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:03,640
play on the Mets to get traded before the deadline,

441
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,200
and I'm curious if if one of them will be

442
00:26:06,799 --> 00:26:09,000
Francisco Lindor or Juan Soto.

443
00:26:11,559 --> 00:26:14,839
Speaker 2: No, neither one will be of those two guys. I

444
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:16,640
took a look at Sodo. It took me about fifteen

445
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:21,240
minutes to try and calculate how many years he has

446
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:24,240
left on his deal and how many dollars associated, and

447
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:27,759
I came up with thirteen years and six hundred and

448
00:26:27,799 --> 00:26:32,680
forty one million, two hundred and fifty thousand owing on

449
00:26:32,759 --> 00:26:36,400
his deal. Lindor has five years and one hundred and

450
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:40,279
sixty two million, three hundred and eighty nine one hundred

451
00:26:40,279 --> 00:26:44,240
and five bucks on the books. I can't. It's just

452
00:26:44,319 --> 00:26:47,920
too much money. Nobody. Nobody is taking on either one

453
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:51,599
of those contracts unless the Dodgers want Sodo, which yeah,

454
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,680
they probably don't have room, or even the Dodgers and

455
00:26:55,799 --> 00:26:59,319
Lindor at one hundred and sixty two plus mil on

456
00:26:59,559 --> 00:27:02,480
five years. Nobody's touching either one of those players unless

457
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,200
the Mets chip in with huge dollars. And I don't

458
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:05,960
see that happen.

459
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:09,720
Speaker 1: I would agree. So give me the top three players

460
00:27:09,759 --> 00:27:12,119
and they get moved for the Mets. And I mean

461
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,279
they've got to be guys that have some level of

462
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:18,319
value so that you know, like I mean, Baddie seems

463
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,640
like a guy, but he's not. He doesn't cost anything.

464
00:27:20,759 --> 00:27:22,480
I mean, it's even a guy that could get moved.

465
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,799
I mean, they're they're they're trying to shed some payroll

466
00:27:25,799 --> 00:27:29,279
on assuming and Marcus Simeon's now hear what give me

467
00:27:29,319 --> 00:27:30,480
the three guys that can get moved?

468
00:27:31,599 --> 00:27:36,119
Speaker 2: Oh okay, well two are fairly easy, but the injuries

469
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:38,240
have made a mess of things. I know they'd love

470
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:44,400
to move the Luise Robert Jr. Okay, well, that ain't

471
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:49,680
gonna happen. Not with a lumbar spine disc hernation, you know. Yeah,

472
00:27:49,839 --> 00:27:54,119
the horrorgate Bolonco is another one, and he just is

473
00:27:54,920 --> 00:28:01,359
healthy on a regular basis. My three, h two of

474
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:05,640
them are based on needs. The third one, I think

475
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:09,319
it's just it's just time. And I my three, I'm

476
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:16,920
going with, uh, Devin Williams, Freddie Paralta, and Marcus Semeon.

477
00:28:18,799 --> 00:28:21,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, Marcus Semi gets healthy. I mean it was he

478
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,119
was doing something. It was better than what he did

479
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:27,079
last season. But Devin Williams is a great call. There's

480
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,720
no reason they need a closer. And I bet you

481
00:28:29,759 --> 00:28:34,799
Freddie Paralta leaves the Mets and plays better. Well.

482
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:38,599
Speaker 2: I think he's a free agent next year if I'm

483
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:42,720
not mistaken. The price on Paralta this year is eight million,

484
00:28:42,799 --> 00:28:46,279
I think somewhere in there. So it's not big money.

485
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:47,920
Everybody needs starting pitching.

486
00:28:48,359 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 1: It's going to return a loutch because of that.

487
00:28:50,319 --> 00:28:53,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, Yeah, he hasn't had a good year,

488
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,599
but hey, when you look at the options out there,

489
00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,279
he will be one of the better ones available. And Williams,

490
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:07,119
you know, he's on a fairly fairly hefty contract, but

491
00:29:08,039 --> 00:29:11,559
they've got they've got Luke Luke Weaver, and you know

492
00:29:11,599 --> 00:29:14,039
there are there are options in that bullpen, I think.

493
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:20,559
I think with teams needing bullpen, help see it. The

494
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:25,920
Athletics of Sacramento, Yeah, they should be able to move Williams.

495
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:30,240
They won't have any problem moving Garolta the third person. Yeah,

496
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:32,880
who knows. They've They've gotten enough players that they can

497
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:38,799
move and dump. So you know, but the two pitchers

498
00:29:38,799 --> 00:29:41,319
of the guys that I think have the potential to

499
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:45,400
fetch a reasonable return, especially for Alta, a good return

500
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,200
that has cast for the Balls of the year.

501
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,079
Speaker 1: Yep, it's going to be a really bad team once

502
00:29:50,279 --> 00:29:53,400
once everybody gets moved because they're just they're not gonna

503
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:58,160
have any pitching. And hopefully Nola McClain. I got to

504
00:29:58,160 --> 00:29:59,640
take a look at his data. I mean, the guy

505
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:02,640
was so promising coming into the season, and you know,

506
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,960
you take a look at that clump of players with

507
00:30:06,599 --> 00:30:10,839
Msowski and Chase Burns and Nolan, you know that he

508
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,079
was in that group and there's starting to be some

509
00:30:13,119 --> 00:30:17,839
separation now between you know, some of the top guys

510
00:30:18,119 --> 00:30:21,160
and Nolan playing. So that's not good.

511
00:30:22,519 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 2: No, it's not the Only thing that is good is

512
00:30:26,039 --> 00:30:28,880
the core bats in Sodo Lindor are going to be

513
00:30:29,079 --> 00:30:31,839
there for a while. They've got some good young talent.

514
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:33,960
Offense won't be a problem.

515
00:30:34,559 --> 00:30:34,759
Speaker 1: Then.

516
00:30:35,319 --> 00:30:39,839
Speaker 2: The one thing with the Mets is, yeah, the owner

517
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:45,759
will spend the money. So whatever pitching is available, you'd

518
00:30:45,759 --> 00:30:47,599
have to think the Mets would be in on it, right.

519
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 1: I think the owner is going to spend the money.

520
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,279
But at some point if they have to start eating

521
00:30:52,279 --> 00:30:55,119
some of these bad contracts, I mean, it's going to

522
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,119
get to a point of this is ridiculous, you know

523
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,279
what I mean, They're gonna have so much batter get

524
00:31:00,319 --> 00:31:03,359
you on that. It's it's already. I think because of

525
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,880
the Dodgers creative accounting that the Mets have the most

526
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,480
expensive payroll in baseball this season.

527
00:31:11,039 --> 00:31:17,599
Speaker 2: Well, they spent really spending one and something like, yeah,

528
00:31:17,599 --> 00:31:23,920
it's between forty one and forty three. Two. There you go.

529
00:31:24,839 --> 00:31:29,079
I'm trying to I'm trying to, you know, bring bring

530
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:33,920
up my inner Rich Wilson here on that one. I

531
00:31:34,039 --> 00:31:36,440
like when you say that, I always chuckle with between

532
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:40,359
it's wlady three and five. I still think back to

533
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:45,000
that one. But no, yeah, yeah, they got to do something.

534
00:31:45,039 --> 00:31:48,839
They got to do something. As far as what I

535
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:56,720
considered be virtually dead contracts, you know, Chet Robert, Semi

536
00:31:56,799 --> 00:31:58,599
and just bad.

537
00:31:58,359 --> 00:32:01,839
Speaker 1: Trades, too, bad trades bad. I mean the look the

538
00:32:02,039 --> 00:32:04,319
one st it was not a bad sign. I mean,

539
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,359
one of the best young players in the game. And

540
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,000
I like, yeah, but Marcus Simmy, we scratched your head

541
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:10,880
when they brought him in. I mean Lewis Robert, I

542
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:14,839
mean like he was terrible, as the White Sox would go, oh, okay,

543
00:32:14,839 --> 00:32:16,920
it was the White Sox. The White Sox are also

544
00:32:17,039 --> 00:32:20,160
really good. Now he's not there. So we were sitting

545
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:22,720
there going, well, gee, maybe it's the White Sox which

546
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:26,240
are making Lewis Roberts bad. You can begin to argue

547
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,160
maybe it was Lewis Roberts that was making the White

548
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:28,759
Sox bad.

549
00:32:29,599 --> 00:32:33,119
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, you're overpaying for players that reached their prime

550
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:36,640
two years ago, three years ago. Yeah, that that's not

551
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,079
That's not a smart exercise as a rule, is.

552
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,599
Speaker 1: It, Which is why I keep promoting that these this

553
00:32:42,799 --> 00:32:46,720
is why teams are signing these younger players and you

554
00:32:46,839 --> 00:32:51,000
get you know, you potentially these are potentially three hundred

555
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,000
million dollar players. You're getting them at one hundred million

556
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,559
dollars and you're getting them in their and their youth

557
00:32:55,799 --> 00:32:59,119
going into their prime, which to me, I mean, yeah,

558
00:32:59,119 --> 00:33:03,000
there's a maybe a greater chance for a guy not developing,

559
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,480
but there's as great as great of a chance of

560
00:33:06,559 --> 00:33:08,559
these guys getting hurt. I mean, when's the last time

561
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,880
Chris Bryant's played a game? Right?

562
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:15,279
Speaker 2: Uh? Yeah, it's been years long ago, longer going far away.

563
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he's got a chronic back, and that

564
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,559
stuff happens, and all of a sudden you're in the

565
00:33:20,559 --> 00:33:23,680
hook for huge sums of money and then you tie

566
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:25,920
your your payroll up and you can't do anything.

567
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,640
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, ten years from now, is one Soto going

568
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,880
to be earning earning that last three years of that contract?

569
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:37,440
Designed Probably not. They should offer Benes and aj Ewing.

570
00:33:37,559 --> 00:33:41,400
They should, Yeah, six seven eight year deals on a

571
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:44,039
non seven E to one hundred million and then see

572
00:33:44,039 --> 00:33:47,680
if they bite. That's that's the approach. I would be daking,

573
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:48,640
That's right, get it.

574
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,759
Speaker 1: That's why I gotta love what the Milwaukee Brewers are doing.

575
00:33:51,799 --> 00:33:53,599
I just gotta love that. I mean, it makes a

576
00:33:53,599 --> 00:33:56,759
total sense, and I mean it's it's just great. To me.

577
00:33:56,799 --> 00:33:59,519
Let's take a break, come back and let's talk Dylan Cruz,

578
00:33:59,559 --> 00:34:16,719
my friend. So here in the journey to live in

579
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:19,360
a high rise building, and you have to have something

580
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:23,039
called a co o I, which is a insurance for

581
00:34:23,199 --> 00:34:25,960
people to deliver anything into the building.

582
00:34:26,119 --> 00:34:30,599
Speaker 2: Oh okay, yeah, certificate.

583
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:34,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, certificate of insurance. And it's not hard. Most people

584
00:34:34,599 --> 00:34:37,639
have that. So we're trying to get a sofa delivered

585
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,679
and Glori has filled out for co o I s

586
00:34:42,679 --> 00:34:48,039
right because and you're getting the delivery company to try

587
00:34:48,079 --> 00:34:51,239
to get it right. So for request and then they

588
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,840
would submit the co OI and it was wrong four times.

589
00:34:54,119 --> 00:34:57,440
So I finally said, may I take the be the

590
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:02,559
honor of calling and complaining? So so yeah, I said,

591
00:35:02,599 --> 00:35:06,679
my wife, who's very efficient, submit it for COI requests.

592
00:35:06,679 --> 00:35:11,440
I said, that's the number between three and five.

593
00:35:13,599 --> 00:35:17,440
Speaker 2: Well you know what, See in Canada, we have that coverage.

594
00:35:17,519 --> 00:35:21,440
Or somebody hurts himself on your right, you're insured for it.

595
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,639
But up here we don't have to prove that that's

596
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,159
entirely your choice, your risk. Okay, nobody ever asks for

597
00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:31,800
you have insurance to deliver. They'll just suit your ass off.

598
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:34,039
If you don't have it, they'll suit your ass off

599
00:35:34,079 --> 00:35:37,440
either way. But when it becomes a personal liability and

600
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:39,840
the other you get an insurance company. But that's your choice.

601
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:43,360
Speaker 1: Eh yeah, so you have here, so we get the

602
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:47,760
certificate of insurance. It insures the tenant us or you know,

603
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:51,880
the owner of us, the building itself, and you know,

604
00:35:52,039 --> 00:35:55,280
so if so if the guy comes in and falls,

605
00:35:55,679 --> 00:36:00,079
well sorry, but at least you know we're covered. It's everybody.

606
00:36:00,159 --> 00:36:03,039
So if the if the employee sues, then it's the

607
00:36:03,079 --> 00:36:05,599
COI that's going to be first in line to take

608
00:36:05,639 --> 00:36:08,280
all of that. So anyway, so that's that's just that's

609
00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:12,800
the rules, and people companies struggle with filling out the

610
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,920
form correctly. But I got a chance to use my line.

611
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:20,480
Speaker 2: That was my uh well yeah that's the important thing. Yeah,

612
00:36:20,519 --> 00:36:21,840
well that covered.

613
00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:25,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, exact exactly. It's more important to say number between

614
00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:27,719
three and five and.

615
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 2: What Yeah yeah, I'm yeah, yeah, that's sort of like

616
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:35,960
the line I use every once, you know, when somebody

617
00:36:36,119 --> 00:36:39,719
really irritates me. Is it the word off you don't understand?

618
00:36:40,119 --> 00:36:44,519
Speaker 1: Yeah? To me, I like I like the subtle belittling

619
00:36:44,559 --> 00:36:46,679
because when you say three and five, it's it's a

620
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,920
bit of a snark, you know, like it's so bad

621
00:36:50,199 --> 00:36:53,480
that you're you're so. But my other one is, particularly

622
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,840
when I'm talking to a young man who's really ticked

623
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,960
me off, I call him son, which is very belittling.

624
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:03,599
When you call a young person's son, and it's like

625
00:37:03,679 --> 00:37:05,679
you can see hair on the back of the next

626
00:37:05,679 --> 00:37:08,079
standing up, It's like, yeah, so that's another power move

627
00:37:08,119 --> 00:37:10,480
for all you guys out there that want to yell

628
00:37:10,559 --> 00:37:14,159
at people and try to get something satisfaction. Call a

629
00:37:14,199 --> 00:37:15,760
young person's son, it's it's a.

630
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:19,079
Speaker 2: Beautiful And call an old person grandpa.

631
00:37:19,599 --> 00:37:22,360
Speaker 1: Yeah right, I will do that because I am a grandpa. Say,

632
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:25,079
it's been a month since Dylan Cruz returned. He did

633
00:37:25,159 --> 00:37:25,760
get three.

634
00:37:25,599 --> 00:37:27,880
Speaker 2: Hits last night, so that batty marriage.

635
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:30,159
Speaker 1: I've got listed down at two twelve with five home

636
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:32,880
runs and two stolen bases. The weird thing is he's

637
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:41,519
walked twice to me two times between and appearances. It's

638
00:37:41,559 --> 00:37:44,000
and he's got a two fifty one base Percentagine again

639
00:37:44,079 --> 00:37:46,840
went up a little bit last night because of the like,

640
00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:49,880
are you happy with Dylan Cruise?

641
00:37:51,199 --> 00:37:53,840
Speaker 2: I don't think he can be happy with Dylan Cruise.

642
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:59,519
I can remember when I pondered, okay trading Paul schemes

643
00:37:59,519 --> 00:38:04,480
for Dyling Cruise, and I eventually, I eventually I went

644
00:38:04,519 --> 00:38:07,119
through it, thought it all through, and I could only

645
00:38:07,199 --> 00:38:12,280
keep so many prospects, so I kept Paul Skins and

646
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:18,480
let Dylan Cruise go. And this was this was just

647
00:38:18,599 --> 00:38:22,480
before both were arriving Dylan Cruise. A pedigree was was

648
00:38:22,519 --> 00:38:26,039
through the roof. He was going to be a very,

649
00:38:26,159 --> 00:38:29,639
very good ballplayer and it just hasn't come through now.

650
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,480
A positive last night other than the three for four

651
00:38:32,639 --> 00:38:35,079
was the fact that Washington had him in the cleanup spot.

652
00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:39,360
And Washington's been playing pretty good baseball, so obviously Washington

653
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,519
still believes in him. You don't put players into the

654
00:38:42,519 --> 00:38:45,519
cleanup spot, you know what I mean, if you don't

655
00:38:45,519 --> 00:38:50,559
believe in them. The past week's been better. Uh, the problem,

656
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:55,960
I haven't. I haven't. I haven't reckoned this this problem yet.

657
00:38:56,559 --> 00:39:02,679
And yeah, does that mean that good? That's good grammar.

658
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,480
I have sort of have it sorted out in my noggin,

659
00:39:06,599 --> 00:39:08,239
including proper speech.

660
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:09,320
Speaker 1: That I understand.

661
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:14,280
Speaker 2: There we go, Okay, I'll talk floor.

662
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:23,559
Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know the English language, that's Canadian tailbill.

663
00:39:23,639 --> 00:39:24,199
Yeah that's.

664
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:34,400
Speaker 2: Yeah. I just can't believe that so many got it wrong. Okay,

665
00:39:32,199 --> 00:39:37,119
it's hard. Yeah, Yeah, that's the problem that that I'm

666
00:39:37,159 --> 00:39:39,320
dealing with. You can see the numbers, you can see

667
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:43,599
the stats. But was there anybody at the point that

668
00:39:43,679 --> 00:39:47,199
he was you know, when he was drafted. Yeah, that

669
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:54,000
first year, everybody was in on Dylan cruise and I

670
00:39:54,039 --> 00:39:59,039
mean absolutely everybody. Can everybody get it that wrong? And

671
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:03,599
that's something that I have to clear up my nog

672
00:40:03,639 --> 00:40:05,639
and because it's still eating away at me, and for

673
00:40:05,679 --> 00:40:10,480
that reason, I go in dynasty leagues. I'd be holding on.

674
00:40:11,679 --> 00:40:13,880
I'm going to be patients.

675
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:18,920
Speaker 1: I'm going to go stronger. I'd be a bieka I

676
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:22,679
and kind of the notion of Tim saying how did

677
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:27,800
everybody get it wrong? Which does happen, but statistically probably not. Look,

678
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:32,760
he is hitting the that the Washington Nationals put him

679
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:34,320
in the minor leagues and said, we want you to

680
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,840
elevate more and when they when you finally do that,

681
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:40,599
we will call you up. Now, there was a lot

682
00:40:40,679 --> 00:40:44,599
of you know, look, they called him up. It just

683
00:40:44,679 --> 00:40:49,000
so happened that it corresponded with him getting another year

684
00:40:49,039 --> 00:40:52,039
of team control. So there was some snark around that

685
00:40:52,079 --> 00:40:54,760
what are they doing? But the data says he's had

686
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:57,159
it more leverage. Last year was eight and a half.

687
00:40:57,559 --> 00:41:00,480
Year before that eight point eight. This year twelve. So

688
00:41:00,559 --> 00:41:04,679
he has added some uphill on his swing. He's hitting

689
00:41:04,679 --> 00:41:07,360
the ball hard ninety one miles an hour. That's a twenty.

690
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:08,960
That's a twenty home run guy.

691
00:41:09,519 --> 00:41:12,800
Speaker 2: And he'd take away wheels. He again got a wheels.

692
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:17,400
Speaker 1: So he's a twenty twenty guy that makes okay contact.

693
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:20,320
It's twenty point three, which is totally league average. League

694
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:24,079
average actually is twenty two point two. I think the

695
00:41:24,119 --> 00:41:27,960
walk rates is weird. I mean, I I that's just crazy.

696
00:41:28,039 --> 00:41:31,079
I think he's pretty aggressive hitter, but I think he'll

697
00:41:31,119 --> 00:41:33,719
be better. I see a twenty twenty guy with a

698
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:36,480
three two sixty batting average. That's the guy I see,

699
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:39,039
and I'd I'd be bullish on it.

700
00:41:41,079 --> 00:41:45,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I right, right now, if you believe that the

701
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,639
future is going to be better than what we've seen

702
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:53,920
in the past, now is definitely the time to buy. Yeah,

703
00:41:54,519 --> 00:41:56,159
you want to take care of you want to take

704
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,320
care of things. While his value is pretty much at

705
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:03,159
its lowest, you know, which is where it's been this year,

706
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:07,119
not breaking camp with the team. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he'd

707
00:42:07,119 --> 00:42:09,039
be a player. I'd be buying right now I agree

708
00:42:09,079 --> 00:42:09,360
with you.

709
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:13,199
Speaker 1: Rich, he's he's it's it's he's the market is down

710
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,199
on him. I think he's better than that. I think

711
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:17,559
I felt the same way about Tatist Junior when we

712
00:42:17,639 --> 00:42:20,280
talked about him. I'm hoping he hits ten home runs

713
00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:24,559
this year because anybody hits the ball that hard is

714
00:42:24,599 --> 00:42:27,320
going to get home runs. I mean, James would had

715
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,719
the exact same problem last year in the second half.

716
00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:33,199
He doesn't have a ton of leverage, but he hit

717
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:35,199
the ball that hard, good stuff is going to happen.

718
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,159
Guess what, Timmy one of the best players in the

719
00:42:37,199 --> 00:42:38,400
game this year.

720
00:42:38,519 --> 00:42:38,760
Speaker 2: Yep.

721
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:42,360
Speaker 1: And I just think you I'm not suggesting that Dylan

722
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:45,079
Cruz is going to be James would kind of break up.

723
00:42:45,119 --> 00:42:47,679
But he's way better than what we're seeing.

724
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 2: Well. Yeah, and the other factor is part of the

725
00:42:52,559 --> 00:42:56,800
equation with Dylan Cruise is the fact that he's twenty

726
00:42:56,840 --> 00:43:00,719
four years old. Yeah, why we Why are we at

727
00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:06,159
this point writing off a twenty four year old player

728
00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:10,880
with that pedigree. I you know, hey, players do fail,

729
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:15,400
and he could. But everything right now says to me

730
00:43:15,559 --> 00:43:17,880
it's it's time to buy for the right price and

731
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:19,800
hold on. If you already have them.

732
00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 1: So relate it. Win say, I don't know if you

733
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:27,199
saw it. I put my first part of my draft

734
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:31,360
preview top fifteen players that I would draft in the order,

735
00:43:31,519 --> 00:43:34,039
somewhat in the order. I mean, it's still not quite

736
00:43:34,119 --> 00:43:37,840
decided yet. So if we've got the Rule four draft

737
00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:40,519
coming up, which is a regular MLB draft on during

738
00:43:40,519 --> 00:43:44,760
the All Star break middle of July, and I spent

739
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,360
a lot of time on it's a very fascinating draft.

740
00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:51,639
And Rock Cholowski has been the number one guy on

741
00:43:51,679 --> 00:43:55,079
the list for a year, maybe year and a half,

742
00:43:55,159 --> 00:43:58,079
I mean, just the you know, the number one dude

743
00:43:58,199 --> 00:44:04,280
UCLA shortstop power, can hit, no speed, miss, can't miss.

744
00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:08,840
And I'm thinking as I'm writing this, I'm thinking Dylan Cruz, right,

745
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:11,719
because the same thing, yeah about Dylan Cruise when he

746
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:15,719
was at LSU, like can't miss, prospect, can hit, got power,

747
00:44:16,159 --> 00:44:19,599
and Cruise even had speed where Chilasky has no speed.

748
00:44:19,639 --> 00:44:25,360
And I'm wondering what the similarities are with Cruise to

749
00:44:25,559 --> 00:44:29,039
you and our people, because I've already gotten some feedback

750
00:44:29,079 --> 00:44:33,199
from our Patreon members, is he overrated? Which is interesting

751
00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:35,639
right because it's probably the highest floor player we've had

752
00:44:35,679 --> 00:44:37,960
we've seen in a long time coming out of the draft,

753
00:44:38,639 --> 00:44:41,800
but there's no speed. He might be overrated, you know.

754
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:46,079
I mean, so what say you on when you're looking

755
00:44:46,079 --> 00:44:48,000
at these guys that are coming up for the draft

756
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:50,559
that can't miss and you think of Dylan Cruz and

757
00:44:50,599 --> 00:44:52,679
some other guys, what you're thinking about all of this?

758
00:44:54,599 --> 00:44:59,159
Speaker 2: Well, again, is it because Choloski is that much ahead

759
00:44:59,199 --> 00:45:01,079
of everybody else? So there is a pack a little

760
00:45:01,079 --> 00:45:01,679
bit lower.

761
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:04,000
Speaker 1: Oh, I think the pack is good.

762
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:12,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. I haven't done any deep dives, but everything in

763
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:15,719
my one two open Universe leagues, he's rostered in both,

764
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,400
and he has been since last spring, maybe a little

765
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:23,239
earlier in one of the leagues. Yeah. Hey, if again,

766
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:27,679
if the consensus is he is that good of a player, Yeah,

767
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:30,320
he's a number one pick. The only thing that muddies

768
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:35,199
the water is a little bit. And again I can

769
00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:39,039
provide you with the information. There is what's coming out

770
00:45:39,079 --> 00:45:44,800
of Japan and Korea, okay, and that will muddy the

771
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:49,239
waters a little bit depending on where you know he

772
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:51,880
has the number one pick. If it's the worst team

773
00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:54,159
in the league, it will make a difference. You're gonna

774
00:45:54,159 --> 00:45:57,079
go with the youth but if you've got a contending

775
00:45:57,159 --> 00:46:01,960
type team right now, I would probably take safety psyche

776
00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:04,800
is the number one pick, and I can provide you

777
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:10,679
that information along. Yeah, I mean it's we'll.

778
00:46:09,079 --> 00:46:11,719
Speaker 1: Get to that later. But I'm just talking about guys

779
00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:15,239
if you're just looking strictly at the draft. I mean,

780
00:46:15,719 --> 00:46:21,000
it's interesting, like everybody's looking for Connor Griffin, right teams

781
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:27,039
are looking for Connor Griffin, but mcgonaell Chelawski is more

782
00:46:27,159 --> 00:46:33,639
McGonagall than Connor Griffin. And but McGonagall there's some other

783
00:46:33,679 --> 00:46:35,480
guys because he was a high school player, so there's

784
00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:38,719
other guys that kind of more look like mcgonaga'll come

785
00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:41,400
in the draft. But the question that you know when

786
00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:45,400
you're drafting in fantasy leagues, this is redraft leagues, this

787
00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:47,679
is also dynasty leagues. Or if you're just a major

788
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:52,400
league team, do you roll the dice and try to

789
00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:55,119
get the guy that's all tooled up that maybe he's

790
00:46:55,119 --> 00:46:57,840
got questions about the hit, which was exactly what everybody

791
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:01,679
said about Connor Griffin and he turned out guy can

792
00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:05,440
hit two. So do you do you take the safe

793
00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:10,039
play with with Chilowski and say, you know, maybe he's

794
00:47:10,079 --> 00:47:12,920
not going to be a superstar. But Corey c your

795
00:47:13,119 --> 00:47:15,960
s type of player, really good guy, a couple will

796
00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:18,960
probably make a couple of All Star breaks, but you know,

797
00:47:19,079 --> 00:47:22,960
he's not going to ever turn into uh to you know,

798
00:47:23,079 --> 00:47:25,760
to Connor Griffin, what direction do you go with?

799
00:47:27,199 --> 00:47:29,519
Speaker 2: I'm going to go in the direction of what I

800
00:47:29,679 --> 00:47:32,280
perceived to be the safe play because all of these

801
00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:36,800
players have risk. When everybody is all in okay and

802
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:40,679
there's a consensus number one, everybody has done their homework,

803
00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:45,360
everybody's looked at this kid inside, and they probably know

804
00:47:45,559 --> 00:47:51,599
his girlfriend's family. Okay, you know, yeah, all the research

805
00:47:51,639 --> 00:47:55,519
has been done. If everybody says he is that guy,

806
00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,880
I'm not gonna I'm not gonna buck that trend. I'm

807
00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:01,360
going to go with that guy and hope I can

808
00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:06,679
build my team around him. Again, there's risk with every player.

809
00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:08,800
The risk on him, I would have to think, is

810
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:12,400
probably considerably lower than the risk of the guy who's

811
00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:18,760
all who's all tooled up okay, but can't hit, you know,

812
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:22,159
chases absolutely everything with a poor hit to him, the

813
00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:24,119
risk has got to be higher. So you're going with

814
00:48:24,159 --> 00:48:28,360
the lower risk guy anyways, right, yeah, yeah, if it

815
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:30,880
doesn't work, out. It's not because you haven't done due

816
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:33,840
diligence or everybody else. I shouldn't say, has it done

817
00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:37,760
due diligence for you? Right? Yeah, I mean not a

818
00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:39,960
time to get not a time to get cute. I

819
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:40,519
don't think.

820
00:48:41,119 --> 00:48:43,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I think it's also a preference to

821
00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:45,960
like Dynasty League people. I mean, there will be some

822
00:48:46,119 --> 00:48:48,840
people who will take Chilawski number one, and then there's

823
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:51,800
some others that will say, you know, there's no speed.

824
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:55,119
The cap is probably even if he hits with twenty

825
00:48:55,119 --> 00:48:57,840
home run power, he's probably going to cap out as

826
00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:01,639
a number a third round pick kind of guy at

827
00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:05,199
his peak. I'm going to try to find the you know,

828
00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:09,039
the kid that's eight seventeen years old that could be

829
00:49:09,119 --> 00:49:11,719
a top five eventual fantasy pick, and they want to

830
00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:14,719
go in that direction. I think both are legitimate. It

831
00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:16,880
just depends on your risk tolerance to everything.

832
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:22,960
Speaker 2: Well yeah, yeah, And you know, here's here's a good example.

833
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:28,800
I'm going through the Baltimore Orioles system because I'm having

834
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:32,800
a brain cramp on the name. But who's the kid

835
00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:36,840
that Baltimore drafted all the two tools in the world. Oh,

836
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:38,480
I don't even know if he's made it a double

837
00:49:38,519 --> 00:49:38,840
a yet.

838
00:49:39,679 --> 00:49:41,320
Speaker 1: Oh the kid they did in the first round, that

839
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:45,280
was the guy that you like to cut and hit. Yeah, yeah,

840
00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:47,639
I'm off to see him next week in Frederick.

841
00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:50,760
Speaker 2: Oh oh you know who I'm thinking?

842
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:53,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, I know. Go to my list. That's

843
00:49:53,639 --> 00:49:55,159
why I have lists him.

844
00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:58,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, Vans honeycut.

845
00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:00,719
Speaker 1: Yeah. I never thought he'd hit draft, but.

846
00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:03,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, well he's proved. You're right. He can't hit.

847
00:50:04,119 --> 00:50:06,360
He can run like the wind, he can hit the

848
00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:10,079
ball a mile, but you can't it. You know, are

849
00:50:10,079 --> 00:50:15,639
you willing to take advanced honeycut chance over? You know?

850
00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:23,400
Speaker 1: Yeah? I think Elijah Green is a really good example too,

851
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:26,440
because he was picked i think fourth by the Nationals

852
00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:29,679
and uh no, he was. He was taking fourth in

853
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:33,280
Fantasy League's dynasty league, so the first year player draft

854
00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:36,280
because he was all tooled up. He hasn't He's never

855
00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:40,079
going to hit. It's a it's a it's a total bust.

856
00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:42,159
It's a bus for the Nationals. And it's a bus

857
00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:44,000
if you took him early in a fantasy league, and

858
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:47,519
it's just the way it is. And if you're picking forth,

859
00:50:47,519 --> 00:50:50,800
do you take somebody that's a little bit more Uh?

860
00:50:51,679 --> 00:50:54,199
Risk free. I think you do. But if you want

861
00:50:54,199 --> 00:50:55,960
to reach, you reached later in the.

862
00:50:55,960 --> 00:51:00,599
Speaker 2: Draft exactly the guys that wanted to reach, okay. And

863
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:02,880
that's why the drafts are set up in the format

864
00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:06,199
of they are the guys that finish in your top five, okay,

865
00:51:06,199 --> 00:51:11,719
are drafting ten to fifteen, right, those are the guys.

866
00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:15,199
They are going to take the risk because they can

867
00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:18,320
afford to, because they've got a solid enough team and

868
00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:22,360
core Okay, they should be a little bit more risk

869
00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:25,920
adverse simply because they can afford to be at least.

870
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:30,519
That's the way I play it. If I'm drafting, you know, twelfth,

871
00:51:30,679 --> 00:51:36,960
okay or thirteenth, and I've got a guy who's got

872
00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:40,960
a potentially be an okay, average charge type, that's where

873
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:43,599
you take the risk, right because you can afford to

874
00:51:43,679 --> 00:51:46,400
take it at least. That's my that's my thought process.

875
00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:48,920
On the back of the first round, in the back

876
00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:52,320
of the second round, that's when you a, hey, I

877
00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:54,400
got a team that finish third last year and I

878
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:56,400
think it can finish first next year. I'm going to

879
00:51:56,440 --> 00:52:00,159
take a chance on this guy. That's I think the

880
00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:03,000
approach I prefer and be safe up at the top

881
00:52:03,119 --> 00:52:04,159
or try to be safe.

882
00:52:04,599 --> 00:52:07,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, before we take another break, I'll just tell her

883
00:52:07,800 --> 00:52:11,920
kind of the conclusions that I'm coming about this upcoming draft.

884
00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:16,559
It is a heavy college bat draft, which Temple love.

885
00:52:16,679 --> 00:52:19,679
Speaker 2: I mean, it's yeah.

886
00:52:20,039 --> 00:52:24,599
Speaker 1: There's no there's very little pitching, very little high end pitching,

887
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:30,079
so and so. So that's week in high school is

888
00:52:30,079 --> 00:52:32,800
a little weaker than has been in the past. So

889
00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:37,800
it is about college bats, which by definition is a safer,

890
00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:43,960
lower ceiling type of draft. So Rock Chulowski is really

891
00:52:44,039 --> 00:52:47,320
that epitome of what this draft is all about. You're

892
00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:49,000
going to get a lot of guys that can hit.

893
00:52:49,039 --> 00:52:51,280
You're going to get some power in some cases, some speed,

894
00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:54,800
but you're not going to get the blowout guys.

895
00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:58,599
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, that makes total sense. And you're right, that's

896
00:52:58,719 --> 00:53:01,480
that's my type of draft. I like to try and

897
00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:04,519
find talent I can I can have in my lineup

898
00:53:04,559 --> 00:53:07,519
within two years. High school players, as a rule don't

899
00:53:07,519 --> 00:53:10,719
get that criteria, right, Yeah, I mean the exception you

900
00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:11,559
go a little lower.

901
00:53:12,079 --> 00:53:14,199
Speaker 1: The exception again is kind of Griffins of the world

902
00:53:14,239 --> 00:53:16,639
who just kind of defy or Mike Trout. I mean

903
00:53:16,679 --> 00:53:20,519
these kind of yeah, once in a lifetime type of

904
00:53:20,559 --> 00:53:24,599
prospects that come up. But Rock Chulowski will be I

905
00:53:24,639 --> 00:53:26,880
was gonna say JJ Weatherhill, but JJ they kept JJ

906
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:30,880
weatherall down in here. He could You could see Chilawski

907
00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:33,559
in twenty twenty seven, depending on who he gets drafted by.

908
00:53:33,559 --> 00:53:36,360
If it's the Rays, then forget it. But yeah, but

909
00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:40,119
the White Sox should draft them and have them starting

910
00:53:40,199 --> 00:53:43,039
as their because he's a great defender, have them as

911
00:53:43,079 --> 00:53:47,280
their shortstops entering the season, and move Coles Montgomery somewhere else.

912
00:53:48,639 --> 00:53:51,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, that makes that makes total sense.

913
00:53:51,519 --> 00:53:53,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's take a break, Tommy come back, and I

914
00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:55,400
got a few more questions than we're going to get

915
00:53:55,440 --> 00:54:07,880
out of here. A discussion of Shane Biaber on the

916
00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:10,679
list last week. Last week we never got to him.

917
00:54:10,679 --> 00:54:13,199
Glad we didn't get to it, because now we've got

918
00:54:13,559 --> 00:54:17,159
we've got his first outing, which was not good. Three

919
00:54:17,159 --> 00:54:20,599
and two thirds innings, My kids were runs, three home runs,

920
00:54:20,639 --> 00:54:24,719
I mean three home runs. He did get the two strikeouts. Congratulations,

921
00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:28,519
if you start him, you got two strikeouts. Fastball was

922
00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:31,559
not good at ninety one point nine. He's actually throwing

923
00:54:31,599 --> 00:54:34,960
a cutter. You can tell by how much he's throwing it.

924
00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:37,480
It's clear that the fastball is not working, so he's

925
00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:40,519
trying to get an alternative to that that didn't work.

926
00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:44,119
I don't know, how are you treating Shane Bieber for

927
00:54:44,159 --> 00:54:46,039
the next few starts, or are you going to start

928
00:54:46,119 --> 00:54:48,159
him because he's Shane Bieber's you're gonna look at him

929
00:54:48,159 --> 00:54:53,440
for the matchups, or no way you're sitting them.

930
00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:57,760
Speaker 2: I took the shot. I no longer have beaber Beaver. Okay.

931
00:54:57,880 --> 00:55:04,079
I found it prescription and they yeah, no, it's uh,

932
00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:09,960
it's it's a problem. I I'm starting him in one

933
00:55:10,039 --> 00:55:12,679
league this week. Okay. I'm third in the ar A

934
00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:15,440
and I'm protected in the whip. Okay, I'm gonna take

935
00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:18,760
a bit of a hit that I can afford to. Okay,

936
00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:21,840
it's not gonna cost me anything because of where I'm sitting.

937
00:55:22,079 --> 00:55:29,599
And unless you're in that situation, he's on my bench, okay.

938
00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:32,559
And if we don't see improvement and over the next

939
00:55:32,599 --> 00:55:35,440
three to four starts, he will no longer be on

940
00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:39,320
my bench. It's it's as simple as that. He's got

941
00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:43,519
Texas at home on Sunda. On Sunday, I'd be sitting

942
00:55:43,599 --> 00:55:46,880
them personally. I also, in the short term, if you

943
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:50,880
want to start unless he's playing the Angels. You know,

944
00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:53,559
I'd look at the matchups, be very careful with those

945
00:55:53,599 --> 00:55:59,599
matchups because right now he's got some serious issues that

946
00:55:59,679 --> 00:56:03,920
have we work through ninety one point nine. Yeah, and

947
00:56:04,039 --> 00:56:07,280
throwing the couse of the compensation, that's not good. Teams.

948
00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:10,320
Teams are going to hit him hard until he's thrown

949
00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:10,960
very hard.

950
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:14,840
Speaker 1: To his defense, and he's always been obviously very successful,

951
00:56:15,559 --> 00:56:21,280
but I don't know Timmy's older. It's a little scary.

952
00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:24,000
Speaker 2: Well yeah, and those home runs were back to back

953
00:56:24,079 --> 00:56:28,280
to back, okay, which is also scary. Okay, because if

954
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:31,039
at first you don't succeed, try tray again, doesn't work

955
00:56:31,079 --> 00:56:37,639
real well, okay. And base Yeah, yeah, so I'm probably gonna.

956
00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:39,559
Speaker 1: Set him for I'm going to sit him for Texas.

957
00:56:39,559 --> 00:56:41,199
I got him in a couple of leagues. I've held

958
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:44,320
on to them to those injuries. But it's it's it's

959
00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:46,800
a little scary what we're seeing with Shane Bieber. Hopefully

960
00:56:47,679 --> 00:56:50,159
the magic of his his movement on his pitches are

961
00:56:50,199 --> 00:56:52,920
going to come through and he'll he'll be solid again.

962
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:55,679
But it was a little a little spooky at the moment.

963
00:56:57,920 --> 00:57:00,480
Speaking of spooky, got a note from one of our

964
00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:02,679
Patreon members. Again, you join a Patreon site, you get

965
00:57:02,679 --> 00:57:05,639
a chance to ask questions, and I don't generally give

966
00:57:05,679 --> 00:57:08,760
one or two word answers. I use a breakdown players

967
00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:13,039
when people ask them this. This question was simple, Jacob Marcy,

968
00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:16,519
is he a keeper for next season? I thought it

969
00:57:16,559 --> 00:57:19,360
was a really good question. I asked you, Timmy, because

970
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:21,480
you were bullish on him. I was bullish on a

971
00:57:21,559 --> 00:57:25,119
coming to the seasons. The stolen bases have been there,

972
00:57:25,199 --> 00:57:27,239
but otherwise it's been a disaster.

973
00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:32,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, the banning average and the power. I

974
00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:36,519
think looking back, just scouting the stat line, okay and

975
00:57:36,599 --> 00:57:40,079
looking at the numbers, I think we overestimated the power

976
00:57:40,079 --> 00:57:43,880
potential based on one season from a couple of years ago.

977
00:57:45,119 --> 00:57:47,639
You know, I I think the speed is very real.

978
00:57:48,440 --> 00:57:52,320
You're looking at the two fifty nine babbit this year, okay,

979
00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:55,159
so that definitely comes into the OBP is three twenty

980
00:57:55,199 --> 00:57:59,079
one Okay. That's acceptable, Okay, especially out of a player

981
00:57:59,119 --> 00:58:04,039
who doesn't turn in twenty five until this Sunday. So

982
00:58:04,400 --> 00:58:09,599
I think when you start looking at he's you know,

983
00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:12,280
last year he went thirty fifth outfielder off the board,

984
00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:16,440
so he was basically a number three outfielder. I'll take

985
00:58:16,480 --> 00:58:20,239
five to ten home runs and thirty plus stolen bases

986
00:58:21,199 --> 00:58:25,480
with a two forty two fifty batting average, I'll take.

987
00:58:25,679 --> 00:58:28,480
I'll take him as a number three, but I don't

988
00:58:28,519 --> 00:58:31,119
think the potential is there to see much more than that,

989
00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:33,199
because I don't think I don't think the power is

990
00:58:33,239 --> 00:58:39,719
going to be there Rich So, yeah, it's disappointing this year,

991
00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:42,559
but again, you drafted him as a number three. You're

992
00:58:42,559 --> 00:58:45,960
gonna get enough stolen bases and hopefully a little bit

993
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:49,159
of a correction on the batting average where it's I'd

994
00:58:49,239 --> 00:58:51,679
definitely be keeping him for next year. Yeah, in a

995
00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:56,760
dynasty league, the speed's real. Take the stolen bases and

996
00:58:56,760 --> 00:58:58,239
hope for a better batting average.

997
00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:00,920
Speaker 1: This was my take looking at the data, and again

998
00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:03,519
I did a lot of digging, and maybe I'll bring

999
00:59:03,599 --> 00:59:08,159
up something that will give you some paws. Okay, so

1000
00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:11,039
last year the power uppers looks like the outlier that

1001
00:59:11,079 --> 00:59:12,960
we're all we all got fooled by. So I agree

1002
00:59:13,039 --> 00:59:16,280
with you there, So why is this happening? He decided

1003
00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:18,920
to try and yoke everything. His flyball rate is way

1004
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:21,599
up with a huge leverage swing. When you don't hit

1005
00:59:21,639 --> 00:59:24,199
the ball very hard. That means more pop ups evan

1006
00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:28,079
and and the data and warning track power. So that's

1007
00:59:28,119 --> 00:59:30,039
that's what we're seeing. He just doesn't hit the ball

1008
00:59:30,079 --> 00:59:32,679
that hard, and he's added a lot of leverage, so

1009
00:59:32,719 --> 00:59:36,000
he's likely an eight to ten home run guy, which

1010
00:59:36,039 --> 00:59:38,000
is what I I write this, which I what I

1011
00:59:38,039 --> 00:59:40,199
thought the ceiling was before I before he went all

1012
00:59:40,280 --> 00:59:43,760
nuts last season. I got ye, I got fooled bite

1013
00:59:43,880 --> 00:59:46,840
like we all did. Said two were red flags, and

1014
00:59:47,159 --> 00:59:49,320
I said, like you need more. One is speed is

1015
00:59:49,400 --> 00:59:52,280
dropped off. He's still fast, but far from a burner.

1016
00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:56,840
And he and I write, he does get on base,

1017
00:59:56,920 --> 01:00:00,400
it's on second. And more concerning is he can hit left,

1018
01:00:00,679 --> 01:00:03,039
something he couldn't do in the minors before Yeah, last

1019
01:00:03,079 --> 01:00:05,519
year's breakout. So net net might take as Marcy will

1020
01:00:05,519 --> 01:00:08,559
become a decent platoon bat with five to ten home runs,

1021
01:00:08,559 --> 01:00:11,679
fifteen plus dolen bases in a two sixty average. Maybe

1022
01:00:11,679 --> 01:00:14,079
I'll catch fire again like he did in twenty twenty five.

1023
01:00:14,159 --> 01:00:16,119
But I went and bet on it in a team

1024
01:00:16,199 --> 01:00:18,039
ten team league, which is what the guy was playing in.

1025
01:00:18,079 --> 01:00:21,360
I would think there are already better options available for Marcy,

1026
01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:23,159
and as a keeper. It's going to be tough to

1027
01:00:23,199 --> 01:00:25,760
make that commitment for next season. Long winded, but I

1028
01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:26,920
hope that helps anyway.

1029
01:00:27,880 --> 01:00:28,559
Speaker 2: That's right enough.

1030
01:00:28,599 --> 01:00:32,559
Speaker 1: So there's definitely some platoon splits there that the Marlins

1031
01:00:32,559 --> 01:00:35,960
see because he's dropped in the lineup, and if he

1032
01:00:35,960 --> 01:00:38,480
doesn't hit better, you're gonna start to seeing dropped in

1033
01:00:38,559 --> 01:00:40,480
lineup is going to be out of the lineup. So

1034
01:00:41,039 --> 01:00:44,239
that's what the next next phase is. So I he

1035
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:47,519
feels like a platoon guy with speed, a little bit

1036
01:00:47,519 --> 01:00:51,440
of power, and not as good as what he showed

1037
01:00:51,519 --> 01:00:53,039
last season. That's my conclusion.

1038
01:00:54,079 --> 01:00:56,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, and that's fair. And yeah, when you look

1039
01:00:56,960 --> 01:01:00,719
at contacts being in the Marlin is okay, yeah, they

1040
01:01:00,760 --> 01:01:04,199
already have They already have Xavier Edwards, they already have

1041
01:01:04,320 --> 01:01:10,199
Auto Lopez. Okay, how many uh Edwards and Lopez? Is?

1042
01:01:10,239 --> 01:01:14,880
Do you need? You need mar You know, Marseille's value

1043
01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:17,599
in a lineup structured in the manner that the Marlins

1044
01:01:17,719 --> 01:01:19,880
is is a little bit less than he might be

1045
01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:22,559
on some other teams. Does that make sense totally?

1046
01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:26,199
Speaker 1: And let's face it, the Marlins, the Marlins, much like

1047
01:01:26,239 --> 01:01:31,239
the Rockies, just don't develop. Guys just don't not hitters.

1048
01:01:32,719 --> 01:01:34,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's funny because at one point in time they

1049
01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:36,000
were pretty darn good at it.

1050
01:01:36,400 --> 01:01:42,159
Speaker 1: I haven't been Gelick and Carlos back man, it was great.

1051
01:01:42,559 --> 01:01:45,079
Speaker 2: Who was who was a shortstop? That was all world?

1052
01:01:46,639 --> 01:01:51,519
Handley Ramirez, you know, Handley Ramires. Yeah, the Marlins didn't

1053
01:01:51,559 --> 01:01:54,639
have any any problems at one point in time, but that.

1054
01:01:54,719 --> 01:01:57,400
Speaker 1: Was two administrations ago. That was, you know, that was

1055
01:01:57,559 --> 01:02:01,159
the things have turned over by lot with this guys.

1056
01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:05,280
So my next topic be where we ask you for

1057
01:02:05,599 --> 01:02:10,800
your targets. A few rookies are starting to show their stuff,

1058
01:02:10,960 --> 01:02:13,400
just real quick. I got five guys, and maybe not

1059
01:02:13,639 --> 01:02:15,920
some of the famous guys. I'm just looking for you.

1060
01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:19,960
Fact or fiction Jack Kaglin on fourteen home runs but

1061
01:02:20,159 --> 01:02:23,639
since still striking out a lot three fifty two, Babbitt

1062
01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:27,360
is propping up his two seventy five batting average. Jack

1063
01:02:27,719 --> 01:02:29,199
Kagling on fact or fiction.

1064
01:02:32,599 --> 01:02:35,280
Speaker 2: The power is a fact, the batting average is fiction.

1065
01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:40,920
Speaker 1: I would agree. Here's an interesting one. We thought that

1066
01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:48,400
there'd be a different first basement in Colorado, but TJ.

1067
01:02:48,599 --> 01:02:52,400
Rumpfield is playing okay. Timmy twelve on runs, two seventy

1068
01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:56,039
five batting average, a fifteen strikeout rate. TJ.

1069
01:02:56,280 --> 01:03:00,800
Speaker 2: Rumpfield, Yeah, we're gonna we're going to play the opposite

1070
01:03:00,920 --> 01:03:09,280
game here. Okay, over, okay, Okay, the power is fiction. Okay,

1071
01:03:10,360 --> 01:03:13,280
the batting average is a fact. I just don't see.

1072
01:03:16,039 --> 01:03:19,119
I just don't see a twenty five to thirty home

1073
01:03:19,239 --> 01:03:22,920
run type bat. I see fifteen to twenty. So I think,

1074
01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:27,480
I think, Yeah, it's exactly the opposite of KEG Leannon.

1075
01:03:28,480 --> 01:03:32,079
Speaker 1: Yeah. TJ. Rumfield. For everyone, just to support what Tim

1076
01:03:32,199 --> 01:03:38,159
is saying, average exivelocity is eighty four point three eighty

1077
01:03:38,320 --> 01:03:40,960
four miles an hour. That would rank in the bottom

1078
01:03:41,119 --> 01:03:44,320
two percent of the league. It doesn't hit the ball hard,

1079
01:03:44,719 --> 01:03:47,199
it's got these leverage of fifteen degrees. But yeah, this

1080
01:03:47,360 --> 01:03:48,079
is a double hitter.

1081
01:03:49,480 --> 01:03:51,320
Speaker 2: And he's six y five I believe. Is he a

1082
01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:54,960
big kid? Uh? He is six'?

1083
01:03:55,079 --> 01:03:55,320
Speaker 1: Five?

1084
01:03:57,079 --> 01:04:02,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah you would, argue are you how can

1085
01:04:02,159 --> 01:04:06,079
you be six? Five? Okay had hit the ball in

1086
01:04:06,639 --> 01:04:09,679
the lowest two percent AND i. DIDN'T i have some

1087
01:04:09,880 --> 01:04:10,920
questions to ASK. Ej.

1088
01:04:11,800 --> 01:04:14,760
Speaker 1: Rumfield, okay, yeah let's see what he did in the

1089
01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:17,960
minor leagues last. Year, yeah the ball, HARDER i, mean

1090
01:04:18,039 --> 01:04:20,519
maybe he's just getting under the ball a little bit too.

1091
01:04:20,639 --> 01:04:24,880
Much let's see, here ev take that. In CAN i

1092
01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:28,639
make data here Is? Averag, yeah it was eighty seven

1093
01:04:28,679 --> 01:04:32,039
point eight last year when he was with The. Yankees so,

1094
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:37,199
yeah so so eighty four is a little eighty seven

1095
01:04:37,199 --> 01:04:39,760
point eight is much. Better, Right so that's that's more

1096
01:04:39,800 --> 01:04:44,079
of a fifteen twenty home run pop, guy particularly In.

1097
01:04:44,159 --> 01:04:47,079
Colorado so the eighty four point three might be a

1098
01:04:47,159 --> 01:04:50,079
bit of a red herring in terms of just not

1099
01:04:50,199 --> 01:04:53,079
hitting the ball hard. Enough but, yeah he's been he's been.

1100
01:04:53,119 --> 01:04:54,320
Good tim he's been.

1101
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:54,920
Speaker 2: Good yeah he.

1102
01:04:55,039 --> 01:04:55,199
Speaker 1: Has.

1103
01:04:55,719 --> 01:04:57,599
Speaker 2: Yeah he just mystifies me when you see a kid

1104
01:04:57,719 --> 01:05:00,800
six Five, okay, yeah, yeah totally.

1105
01:05:00,880 --> 01:05:03,519
Speaker 1: Great, Yeah Bryce eldris talking about a guy that's sixty,

1106
01:05:03,559 --> 01:05:06,000
five one hundred and thirty at bats six home, runs

1107
01:05:06,559 --> 01:05:08,719
so he's on pace to hit nine hundred home runs the,

1108
01:05:08,840 --> 01:05:12,480
season hitting two eighty five thirty four, strikeouts twenty one

1109
01:05:12,559 --> 01:05:14,519
walks of twenty two percent strikeout.

1110
01:05:14,599 --> 01:05:20,320
Speaker 2: Rate Bryce, Eldridge, yeah back back, back great. Devers, yeah

1111
01:05:20,360 --> 01:05:22,199
he's going to be a Good. BLAIR i.

1112
01:05:22,239 --> 01:05:25,199
Speaker 1: Agree here's an interesting. One kudo's out to the Great

1113
01:05:25,239 --> 01:05:29,039
tim McLeod Foster griffin ninety one in the third innings

1114
01:05:29,440 --> 01:05:32,119
three point. Fifteen, EARRA i think he's got four. Wins

1115
01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:36,440
he's got an expected four oh nine expected Era Foster

1116
01:05:36,559 --> 01:05:37,920
griffin factor fiction.

1117
01:05:40,679 --> 01:05:45,760
Speaker 2: My concern AND i had him ranked of, uh you

1118
01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:49,480
know When Cody ponds And anthony K. I griffin ranked the,

1119
01:05:49,559 --> 01:05:53,400
lowers and my concern was hell and and and the

1120
01:05:53,480 --> 01:05:55,800
word as he. Missed he missed time in all three

1121
01:05:55,880 --> 01:05:58,599
years And japan last year we only tossed eighty ninety.

1122
01:05:58,599 --> 01:06:01,199
Eight oh, okay now GRANTED i think it was a

1123
01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:06,599
one point five e r. Ah he's staying healthy so

1124
01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:12,719
far this. YEAR i have to say it is. Fact.

1125
01:06:14,440 --> 01:06:21,559
Uh and AGAIN i was concerned about the, workload and

1126
01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:25,320
so far he has more innings in this year and the,

1127
01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:29,440
bigs and he had all of last year In japan

1128
01:06:29,599 --> 01:06:32,320
where he only put in eighty nine. Innings so, Yeah

1129
01:06:32,440 --> 01:06:34,920
i'm Gonna i'm gonna call it back to cross my

1130
01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:36,679
fingers and pray that he stays off the.

1131
01:06:36,760 --> 01:06:39,679
Speaker 1: Aisle just looking at his, stuff we talked About Shane.

1132
01:06:39,719 --> 01:06:43,880
Bieber Foster griffin doesn't have big fast but ninety one point.

1133
01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:47,199
Four but guess what he throws more of than his

1134
01:06:47,320 --> 01:06:51,400
four seemer is. Cutter so his cutter is very very.

1135
01:06:51,480 --> 01:06:54,599
Effective and he's got a great, sweeper so he's got

1136
01:06:54,639 --> 01:06:57,440
an out. Pitch he throws. Everything if there's a cutter for,

1137
01:06:57,599 --> 01:07:02,760
seamer sweeper sink or, curveball change up, Split, yeah, yeah

01:10:39,560 --> 01:10:43,319
a good start this year playing principally third base and

1200
01:10:43,520 --> 01:10:46,920
then ended up missing five weeks with a broken. Finger

1201
01:10:47,359 --> 01:10:49,840
he's a home run this week If i'm not. Mistaken

1202
01:10:51,239 --> 01:10:53,159
a little bit of. SPEED i like the. Power he's

1203
01:10:53,199 --> 01:10:56,039
only twenty three so it's not like he's an aging.

1204
01:10:56,199 --> 01:11:00,319
Veteran i'm going With Max, Monthy Max munsey of the ATHLETIC.

Speaker 1: I brought Up Max. Months he brought up the Wrong Max.

1206
01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:07,079
Months i'm like looking at his, like, Wow Max, months

1207
01:11:07,119 --> 01:11:09,479
he's pretty. Good and it was it was The dodgers. Maximunks,

1208
01:11:11,319 --> 01:11:15,319
UH averagex of velocity is ninety one point, one a

1209
01:11:15,359 --> 01:11:19,199
little bit of, launch hits the ball, hard hits the ball,

1210
01:11:19,319 --> 01:11:23,439
hard a little bit of speed sixty fifth. Percentile let's

1211
01:11:23,439 --> 01:11:25,880
see a strikeout rate is a lot and he never.

1212
01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:28,079
Walks so he needs. Something, yeah that's why he wasn't

1213
01:11:28,119 --> 01:11:30,159
the in the minor. Leagues he had a terrible. Approach,

1214
01:11:30,840 --> 01:11:34,960
yeah so can he stop swinging and everything? Too their

1215
01:11:35,039 --> 01:11:36,079
speed and power there for.

1216
01:11:36,159 --> 01:11:40,359
Speaker 2: Sure, Yeah i'll take that on a short term. Basis,

1217
01:11:40,880 --> 01:11:42,600
yep who's your who's your?

1218
01:11:42,640 --> 01:11:42,960
Speaker 1: Picture?

1219
01:11:44,359 --> 01:11:47,359
Speaker 2: Ah and this you, know we can we can sort

1220
01:11:47,399 --> 01:11:49,720
of we can sort of look at this GUY i

1221
01:11:49,840 --> 01:11:53,720
think in the same light maybe As gage Jump, okay

1222
01:11:54,720 --> 01:11:59,520
and that we're going mm Hmm Cage, yeah yeah him.

1223
01:11:59,560 --> 01:12:04,119
Speaker 1: Too, Yeah now you got me, questioning, uh.

1224
01:12:04,279 --> 01:12:06,840
Speaker 2: Dear, optomically it's, gauge it's, gage it's.

1225
01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:07,680
Speaker 1: Gage you're, Right.

Wrong toods are pretty. Good you, know when you look

1228
01:12:18,079 --> 01:12:20,640
At Gauge, jump this picture sort of reminds me of

1229
01:12:20,680 --> 01:12:24,520
the same thing because they both have the, potential they're both,

1230
01:12:24,640 --> 01:12:27,920
young and you, know when WHEN i look at that

1231
01:12:28,239 --> 01:12:33,239
last outing Of Brandon, sprouts, okay six innings of one hit,

1232
01:12:33,359 --> 01:12:38,680
ball no, walks ten strikeouts In cincinnati a, BANDBOX i

1233
01:12:38,840 --> 01:12:41,199

01:12:41,319 --> 01:12:44,239
right Now sproute is sprots is Only rowster to the
