WEBVTT

1
00:00:20.640 --> 00:00:23.440
<v Speaker 1>Greene excise chations. Everyone at Church Wilson walking to Fantasy

2
00:00:23.480 --> 00:00:27.359
<v Speaker 1>Baseball Live. Today is August second, the eve before the

3
00:00:27.440 --> 00:00:30.320
<v Speaker 1>end of the trade deadline, and Timmy, we've got trades

4
00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:33.079
<v Speaker 1>happening all over the place. We just have heard that

5
00:00:33.159 --> 00:00:36.479
<v Speaker 1>the Rays are acquiring Freddie Peralte as we come on

6
00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:39.880
<v Speaker 1>the air. We obviously had the big Trek Schooble move.

7
00:00:40.640 --> 00:00:42.399
<v Speaker 1>It's been an exciting twenty four hours.

8
00:00:44.240 --> 00:00:46.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it was sort of like install mode with not

9
00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:52.000
<v Speaker 2>much happening, and all of a sudden things are happening

10
00:00:52.079 --> 00:00:54.560
<v Speaker 2>and they're going to continue to happen for the next

11
00:00:54.719 --> 00:00:59.759
<v Speaker 2>twenty four plus a couple hours. So yeah, I'm good.

12
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:03.799
<v Speaker 2>Good for the Rays acquiring ready for all that would

13
00:01:03.799 --> 00:01:06.200
<v Speaker 2>be interesting to see what what's going back to the

14
00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:10.879
<v Speaker 2>Mets and uh As it was no surprise. The Dodgers

15
00:01:10.959 --> 00:01:15.159
<v Speaker 2>line is schoobl and a good call on the Hey,

16
00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:17.120
<v Speaker 2>you nailed the two big parties. I don't know too

17
00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:21.079
<v Speaker 2>much about the other kid, but we'll talk about it. Yeah,

18
00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:22.079
<v Speaker 2>it was a good trade.

19
00:01:22.879 --> 00:01:27.480
<v Speaker 1>The Mets are getting Aiden Smith, Emilian Petra and Gary

20
00:01:27.719 --> 00:01:32.239
<v Speaker 1>gil Hill. So Gary gil Hill looked like he has

21
00:01:32.280 --> 00:01:34.799
<v Speaker 1>had a chance to pitch mid rotation and it really

22
00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:38.439
<v Speaker 1>has really struggled this season. Aide Smith came over as

23
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:41.079
<v Speaker 1>part of the Seattle Mariner trade a couple of years ago.

24
00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:42.879
<v Speaker 2>Toolsy kid could.

25
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:45.159
<v Speaker 1>Be something there and a million pitchers got a good

26
00:01:45.239 --> 00:01:50.439
<v Speaker 1>arm probably reliever. So that's that's typical of what you

27
00:01:50.480 --> 00:01:53.879
<v Speaker 1>get with a really good player by Freddie Perrault. Of

28
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:58.200
<v Speaker 1>what the Dodger, what the Tigers got back for Trek

29
00:01:58.280 --> 00:02:02.040
<v Speaker 1>Scoobel is insane, just what a great haul. But that

30
00:02:02.120 --> 00:02:04.439
<v Speaker 1>looks like who Freddy Peralta is bringing back.

31
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:07.319
<v Speaker 2>That sounds reasonable to me.

32
00:02:08.120 --> 00:02:11.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's there. There's no aidon Smith, there's no

33
00:02:12.039 --> 00:02:15.159
<v Speaker 1>zire hope that Freddy Parolta can't command that for two

34
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:18.919
<v Speaker 1>months rental was there. Some bets and we'll see what happens.

35
00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:23.120
<v Speaker 2>Well, and let's face it has Freddie barral to earn

36
00:02:23.240 --> 00:02:25.759
<v Speaker 2>much more than that with his with his performance this.

37
00:02:25.840 --> 00:02:29.560
<v Speaker 1>Year, it's been terrible. I mean, yeah, my worst call

38
00:02:30.439 --> 00:02:34.319
<v Speaker 1>for my draft targets was Freddy Parolta playing hard stop.

39
00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:35.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean he's just been awful.

40
00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:39.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, So you know, the Braves have got not the

41
00:02:39.960 --> 00:02:44.560
<v Speaker 2>braves or Raves have got some fixing to do. The

42
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:46.960
<v Speaker 2>their pitchers throw strikes, don't they as a rule.

43
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:50.639
<v Speaker 1>That is there. That's their thing, Tommy. They get guys

44
00:02:50.680 --> 00:02:54.639
<v Speaker 1>to throw, some guys increase velocity. Some guys introduced his pitches.

45
00:02:54.960 --> 00:02:58.360
<v Speaker 1>I say, guys, teams, the Rays are all about getting

46
00:02:58.360 --> 00:03:00.800
<v Speaker 1>guys to throw strikes, and it doesn't take them along.

47
00:03:01.039 --> 00:03:03.840
<v Speaker 1>I would not be at all surprised at Freddy Peralta

48
00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:07.280
<v Speaker 1>and within two weeks is back to what he looked

49
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:10.159
<v Speaker 1>like in Milwaukee. Would not at all be surprised.

50
00:03:11.039 --> 00:03:13.680
<v Speaker 2>We might be able to start calling six inning Freddy

51
00:03:13.800 --> 00:03:16.199
<v Speaker 2>instead of four inning Freddy. Is that what you're saying?

52
00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:19.680
<v Speaker 1>When I sent out my little note to our Patreon members,

53
00:03:19.719 --> 00:03:23.120
<v Speaker 1>I said, three to five inning Freddy just got moved

54
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:28.000
<v Speaker 1>so much. Sure what inning he's up to, but.

55
00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:31.919
<v Speaker 2>I was gonna say, I haven't even read your notes.

56
00:03:31.960 --> 00:03:32.759
<v Speaker 2>It's pretty funny.

57
00:03:33.039 --> 00:03:37.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, because he was five inning Freddy, he's moved on

58
00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:40.280
<v Speaker 1>the fourning Freddy on his way to three inning Freddy.

59
00:03:40.360 --> 00:03:43.960
<v Speaker 1>I I mean, we'll see maybe. I mean, I've looked

60
00:03:43.960 --> 00:03:45.960
<v Speaker 1>at the Baseball Savon stuff and has to do the

61
00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:49.560
<v Speaker 1>breakdown for a Patreon members. I'll dig into a little deeper.

62
00:03:50.120 --> 00:03:53.800
<v Speaker 1>I didn't see anything obvious in terms of what was different,

63
00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:58.960
<v Speaker 1>so what's let me dig dig into that. But it

64
00:03:59.039 --> 00:04:01.719
<v Speaker 1>could just be well, he needs a new he needs

65
00:04:01.719 --> 00:04:03.080
<v Speaker 1>a new address.

66
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:06.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I new address is not going to hurt him

67
00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:10.120
<v Speaker 2>at all, definitely agree, Yeah.

68
00:04:09.879 --> 00:04:12.120
<v Speaker 1>For sure, Timmy. So I've been writing my little fingers

69
00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:14.759
<v Speaker 1>off to the bone. I encourage you. Now's the time

70
00:04:14.800 --> 00:04:17.319
<v Speaker 1>to join the Patreon site because I write up each

71
00:04:17.360 --> 00:04:20.879
<v Speaker 1>and every trade. Uh and I've written up I think

72
00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:25.199
<v Speaker 1>six or seven already, probably twenty five different players breakdown,

73
00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:28.319
<v Speaker 1>Baseball Savant breakdown of all the principal guys that get traded,

74
00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:32.600
<v Speaker 1>and then usually a profile of all the minor league

75
00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:35.800
<v Speaker 1>guys that get moved as well, and the Freddy PERALTA

76
00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:37.800
<v Speaker 1>Trade's gonna be actually pretty easy because those are all

77
00:04:37.800 --> 00:04:40.199
<v Speaker 1>three famous dudes that I've already got written up. So

78
00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:42.399
<v Speaker 1>just a little bit of an update and kick that

79
00:04:42.439 --> 00:04:42.959
<v Speaker 1>puppy out.

80
00:04:43.040 --> 00:04:45.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah, I was going to say, it's not like

81
00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:46.959
<v Speaker 2>you've got to do a lot of digging. If you've

82
00:04:46.959 --> 00:04:51.519
<v Speaker 2>already got them and have them included in the regular information,

83
00:04:51.560 --> 00:04:54.040
<v Speaker 2>you can write a Patreon right, So yeah, that makes

84
00:04:54.079 --> 00:04:56.879
<v Speaker 2>it a little easier for you.

85
00:04:56.959 --> 00:04:59.600
<v Speaker 1>Usually we're our early because I'm going to a baseball

86
00:04:59.639 --> 00:05:02.360
<v Speaker 1>game this afternoon with my family. You're seeing the Summrset

87
00:05:02.480 --> 00:05:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Patriots against the Richmond's flying squirrels. To me, think they're flying,

88
00:05:06.079 --> 00:05:07.959
<v Speaker 1>they might not just be regular squirrels.

89
00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:13.639
<v Speaker 2>So how can you beat watching a flying squirrel? Yeah,

90
00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:14.959
<v Speaker 2>you just can't beat it.

91
00:05:14.959 --> 00:05:19.920
<v Speaker 1>It's great. So nine tickets. So it's the four people,

92
00:05:20.120 --> 00:05:23.519
<v Speaker 1>my my sons, I plus the mother in law Laurie, myself,

93
00:05:23.639 --> 00:05:26.240
<v Speaker 1>my daughter, her husband, and again two babies of the

94
00:05:26.279 --> 00:05:30.680
<v Speaker 1>oven eleven. So nine tickets for one hundred and fifty

95
00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:34.319
<v Speaker 1>two dollars. That's like that.

96
00:05:34.319 --> 00:05:35.399
<v Speaker 2>That would be the two.

97
00:05:35.279 --> 00:05:38.360
<v Speaker 1>Tickets at a major league baseball game, if if maybe

98
00:05:38.360 --> 00:05:41.639
<v Speaker 1>if so, Yeah.

99
00:05:41.399 --> 00:05:43.600
<v Speaker 2>And there's bound to be some sort of promotion where

100
00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:45.639
<v Speaker 2>you're going to sit back and have a few chuckles

101
00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:46.920
<v Speaker 2>and have some fun with it.

102
00:05:47.279 --> 00:05:51.519
<v Speaker 1>And the great greatest bargain and the greatest bargain in

103
00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:55.040
<v Speaker 1>baseball fourteen dollars six tickets to go see the Summrset

104
00:05:55.079 --> 00:05:58.160
<v Speaker 1>Patriots or whatever minor league stadium is near you. They're

105
00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:01.079
<v Speaker 1>they're not expensive and it's just this great entertainment.

106
00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:04.639
<v Speaker 2>Well, you can't even you can't take nine people people

107
00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:07.000
<v Speaker 2>to a show for that, can you? No?

108
00:06:07.399 --> 00:06:11.120
<v Speaker 1>And I yeah, twelve rows from the field. I mean

109
00:06:11.319 --> 00:06:12.759
<v Speaker 1>it's like you can see the guy sweat.

110
00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:16.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, you're right there, you know at the theater.

111
00:06:17.040 --> 00:06:20.199
<v Speaker 2>That'll barely get you two tubs of popcorn in the episoda.

112
00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:24.839
<v Speaker 1>So I think the new movie that's out is it Odyssey?

113
00:06:25.000 --> 00:06:28.160
<v Speaker 1>Is that the one the Homer poem that was done.

114
00:06:28.240 --> 00:06:30.839
<v Speaker 1>Apparently that's the one getting all the everybody says you

115
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:33.199
<v Speaker 1>got to go see that. It's all that time.

116
00:06:33.920 --> 00:06:38.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, apparently I saw there was no talking in it rich.

117
00:06:39.839 --> 00:06:42.199
<v Speaker 1>So that's a funny time.

118
00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:44.360
<v Speaker 2>That.

119
00:06:45.000 --> 00:06:47.079
<v Speaker 1>But apparently that's the movie to go see. And it's

120
00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:49.720
<v Speaker 1>only an eye mass and it's twenty five dollars a

121
00:06:49.920 --> 00:06:53.399
<v Speaker 1>ticket to go to go see a two hour movie.

122
00:06:53.519 --> 00:06:56.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, wow, that's that's I need to get your

123
00:06:56.199 --> 00:06:59.959
<v Speaker 1>tub of popcorn and your overpriced coke And you're spending

124
00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:02.720
<v Speaker 1>fifty sixty bucks now to go to the movie theater.

125
00:07:03.720 --> 00:07:06.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Well yeah, you can get a family of four

126
00:07:06.319 --> 00:07:08.800
<v Speaker 2>n plus dogs at a minor league game and have

127
00:07:09.399 --> 00:07:11.199
<v Speaker 2>just as much, if not more fun, Right.

128
00:07:11.319 --> 00:07:14.639
<v Speaker 1>God, I hate barking the park day. That's that's what

129
00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:18.560
<v Speaker 1>they always call it. Man, the dogs they're everywhere. It's

130
00:07:18.720 --> 00:07:21.920
<v Speaker 1>unbelievable to me. So if I see that promotion going on,

131
00:07:21.959 --> 00:07:25.000
<v Speaker 1>I use these just aside to stay home. I've had

132
00:07:25.079 --> 00:07:27.120
<v Speaker 1>enough of dogs barking.

133
00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:31.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that takes the dog days of summer to a

134
00:07:31.439 --> 00:07:33.040
<v Speaker 2>whole new low, doesn't it for you?

135
00:07:33.480 --> 00:07:35.360
<v Speaker 1>For sure? Timmy, Let's talk about some of these traits.

136
00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:37.920
<v Speaker 1>Let's just run off that talk about the big one,

137
00:07:38.959 --> 00:07:41.920
<v Speaker 1>and this is this was the worst kept secret in baseball.

138
00:07:41.959 --> 00:07:45.560
<v Speaker 1>The Dodgers acquired Trek schoobl from the Tigers. Right handed

139
00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:48.439
<v Speaker 1>pitcher River Ryan who's currently in the IL with a hamstring,

140
00:07:48.480 --> 00:07:53.439
<v Speaker 1>pool Zayer Hope outfielder, and right handed pitcher Brady Smith

141
00:07:53.480 --> 00:07:55.959
<v Speaker 1>who is in High A and I have him as

142
00:07:55.959 --> 00:08:00.839
<v Speaker 1>a top forty starting pitcher potentially baseball. So it's a nice, little,

143
00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:04.920
<v Speaker 1>nice haul by the Tigers. But what was your initial

144
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:06.759
<v Speaker 1>thought when you saw it? And we'll talk about some

145
00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:09.720
<v Speaker 1>of the criticism on the internet, and just give give

146
00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:11.639
<v Speaker 1>me your thinking when you first saw it.

147
00:08:13.160 --> 00:08:18.439
<v Speaker 2>Well, it's a win win. The only group that is

148
00:08:18.519 --> 00:08:23.439
<v Speaker 2>going to lose from this deal, in my opinion, are

149
00:08:23.480 --> 00:08:27.000
<v Speaker 2>the fantasy folks that happened to have Trek scooble rostered.

150
00:08:27.800 --> 00:08:31.000
<v Speaker 2>And the reason I say that is because they didn't

151
00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:36.399
<v Speaker 2>acquire Terry to Schooble for August, and they didn't acquire

152
00:08:36.519 --> 00:08:40.039
<v Speaker 2>him for September. I think had he stayed in Detroit,

153
00:08:40.120 --> 00:08:42.360
<v Speaker 2>he would have pitched every fifth day. He would have

154
00:08:42.360 --> 00:08:46.279
<v Speaker 2>gone seven eight innings. Yeah, yeah, he had as a Dodger.

155
00:08:46.600 --> 00:08:50.279
<v Speaker 2>They want Scooble, unless, of course, they signed him to

156
00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:52.639
<v Speaker 2>an extension of sorts in the next two months.

157
00:08:52.720 --> 00:08:56.360
<v Speaker 1>But so I I have a laugh track here to me.

158
00:08:56.480 --> 00:09:00.759
<v Speaker 2>Let me look, yeah, you should have that.

159
00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:01.759
<v Speaker 1>I need to have that.

160
00:09:02.759 --> 00:09:06.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but unless something like that happens, are there are

161
00:09:06.039 --> 00:09:08.840
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers going to overwork Schooble in August and September

162
00:09:08.840 --> 00:09:11.399
<v Speaker 2>when they're about ten minutes away from clinching the division. No,

163
00:09:12.200 --> 00:09:14.240
<v Speaker 2>he's going to pitch a little bit less down the

164
00:09:14.240 --> 00:09:16.639
<v Speaker 2>stretch than he would in a normal year, I believe

165
00:09:17.200 --> 00:09:19.600
<v Speaker 2>because the Dodgers won him for October. Right.

166
00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:22.919
<v Speaker 1>I think that's a great point.

167
00:09:23.799 --> 00:09:28.879
<v Speaker 2>I think us fantasy folks that have Derek Scoobel could

168
00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:31.440
<v Speaker 2>end up being a little disappointed by what they see

169
00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:36.120
<v Speaker 2>in August in September. Other than that both teams win. Yeah,

170
00:09:36.679 --> 00:09:39.600
<v Speaker 2>the Tigers. The Tigers got who in the in the

171
00:09:39.639 --> 00:09:43.879
<v Speaker 2>real game of baseball, the Tiger's got a relatively young

172
00:09:43.960 --> 00:09:46.960
<v Speaker 2>starting pitcher in River Ryan who can be a very

173
00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:49.799
<v Speaker 2>good pitcher, a top prof span and then they got

174
00:09:49.799 --> 00:09:54.000
<v Speaker 2>an outfielder who could be playing in that outfield for

175
00:09:54.039 --> 00:09:57.279
<v Speaker 2>the next ten years on a two month rental. The

176
00:09:57.360 --> 00:10:01.440
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers got their got their playoff pitcher. It's a win win.

177
00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:04.919
<v Speaker 1>I think you bring up a really good point with

178
00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:09.519
<v Speaker 1>Schooble going to the Dodgers. The only maybe counter argument

179
00:10:09.600 --> 00:10:13.039
<v Speaker 1>to that is he did miss six weeks of or

180
00:10:13.080 --> 00:10:15.799
<v Speaker 1>five to six weeks of time, so his arm at

181
00:10:15.879 --> 00:10:19.679
<v Speaker 1>least for this year, should not be worn out. But

182
00:10:20.039 --> 00:10:22.879
<v Speaker 1>I think that's a really really good point, one that

183
00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:27.320
<v Speaker 1>I had not considered that he might pitch well in August,

184
00:10:27.360 --> 00:10:30.039
<v Speaker 1>but could you know, miss a starter or two down

185
00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:30.600
<v Speaker 1>the stretch.

186
00:10:31.679 --> 00:10:34.120
<v Speaker 2>Well. Yeah, and even though he doesn't have the Miley

187
00:10:34.200 --> 00:10:36.759
<v Speaker 2>joh on his arm per se this year, they don't

188
00:10:36.759 --> 00:10:39.519
<v Speaker 2>want to put the Miley john until October, so you

189
00:10:39.559 --> 00:10:41.759
<v Speaker 2>know what I mean, that's where they want to see.

190
00:10:42.120 --> 00:10:44.600
<v Speaker 2>That's what this trade is all about. It's a third

191
00:10:44.600 --> 00:10:45.279
<v Speaker 2>World Series.

192
00:10:45.799 --> 00:10:49.799
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I think if you've got rookie Sosaki's actually been

193
00:10:49.840 --> 00:10:53.600
<v Speaker 1>pretty good this season, you got Rableski, who's been fantastic.

194
00:10:54.279 --> 00:10:56.360
<v Speaker 1>Those are the guys that are really going to get

195
00:10:56.399 --> 00:10:58.480
<v Speaker 1>hurt from a fantasy standpoint, because I think you're going

196
00:10:58.559 --> 00:10:59.840
<v Speaker 1>to see it. They're going to see them move to

197
00:10:59.879 --> 00:11:00.399
<v Speaker 1>the bullpen.

198
00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:04.360
<v Speaker 2>Well, I think that's a possibility. But at the same

199
00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:09.879
<v Speaker 2>point in time, you're also gonna see Yamamodo probably skipping

200
00:11:09.919 --> 00:11:16.480
<v Speaker 2>a starter too. You're gonna be shean. So I come September,

201
00:11:16.759 --> 00:11:19.399
<v Speaker 2>I think I might want to have the Robeleskis of

202
00:11:19.440 --> 00:11:22.000
<v Speaker 2>the world on my roster.

203
00:11:24.120 --> 00:11:26.720
<v Speaker 1>He gets moved to the bullpen and then he's not

204
00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:27.919
<v Speaker 1>stretched out anymore.

205
00:11:29.000 --> 00:11:31.919
<v Speaker 2>Well, see, that's why I don't know if that'll occur.

206
00:11:32.080 --> 00:11:35.000
<v Speaker 2>If they'll move into the bullpen right away, they might

207
00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:38.840
<v Speaker 2>start two weeks from now. They might start shuffling these

208
00:11:38.879 --> 00:11:42.679
<v Speaker 2>guys in and out of the rotation and you'll see, uh,

209
00:11:44.639 --> 00:11:48.840
<v Speaker 2>fake hamstring strains and you'll see sore backs and yeah,

210
00:11:49.120 --> 00:11:53.600
<v Speaker 2>you know what I mean. Yeah, I just I just

211
00:11:53.639 --> 00:11:57.720
<v Speaker 2>think that there might be opportunities for some of the five,

212
00:11:57.879 --> 00:12:01.480
<v Speaker 2>six seven type starters in September. So I don't interest.

213
00:12:01.720 --> 00:12:03.320
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what the Dodgers are going to do,

214
00:12:03.919 --> 00:12:08.399
<v Speaker 2>and we'll see that defined fairly soon. But until a

215
00:12:08.519 --> 00:12:11.600
<v Speaker 2>firm commitment is made to push these guys into the pen,

216
00:12:12.279 --> 00:12:15.360
<v Speaker 2>I'd start to be stashing them because, let's face it,

217
00:12:15.399 --> 00:12:20.120
<v Speaker 2>in the last week, two weeks of the season, we've

218
00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:22.679
<v Speaker 2>been struggling for pitching all year long. It's not going

219
00:12:22.759 --> 00:12:24.919
<v Speaker 2>to get better the last week of the season. We're

220
00:12:24.919 --> 00:12:27.200
<v Speaker 2>gonna see some you know, we do every year, we

221
00:12:27.240 --> 00:12:31.519
<v Speaker 2>see some real oddities and some guys getting called up. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

222
00:12:31.159 --> 00:12:34.039
<v Speaker 2>the same thing will happen this year, guarantee.

223
00:12:34.519 --> 00:12:36.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I think the guys that are getting called off

224
00:12:36.960 --> 00:12:39.960
<v Speaker 1>for the Dodgers will be Tyler Glasnow, Blake Snow and

225
00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:43.559
<v Speaker 1>that'll them basically coming back from injury, and they're the

226
00:12:43.559 --> 00:12:46.519
<v Speaker 1>ones that I think you're going to see if they're healthy,

227
00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:48.320
<v Speaker 1>are going to be the guys that are pitching every

228
00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:51.799
<v Speaker 1>fifth day, So which is kind of right because you

229
00:12:51.840 --> 00:12:54.039
<v Speaker 1>want them to get in for the playoffs as well.

230
00:12:54.960 --> 00:12:57.879
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, No, it's it's a it's an interesting and a

231
00:12:57.919 --> 00:13:01.679
<v Speaker 2>good situation for the Dodgers to be in having that flexibility.

232
00:13:01.679 --> 00:13:04.039
<v Speaker 2>They're up by a slow of games, nobody's going to

233
00:13:04.120 --> 00:13:07.039
<v Speaker 2>catch them in their division, so it allows him the

234
00:13:07.080 --> 00:13:11.080
<v Speaker 2>flexibility to manage that pitching in a fashion the best

235
00:13:11.080 --> 00:13:13.399
<v Speaker 2>preparers for the playoffs.

236
00:13:14.200 --> 00:13:16.639
<v Speaker 1>Let me talk to you about these minor league kids.

237
00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:20.879
<v Speaker 1>River Ryan. You know, I've been all in a River

238
00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:23.159
<v Speaker 1>Ryan for a while. A lot of people don't remember

239
00:13:23.159 --> 00:13:26.159
<v Speaker 1>in twenty twenty four when he had his four game

240
00:13:27.360 --> 00:13:30.000
<v Speaker 1>debut with the with the Dodgers. He was up with

241
00:13:30.039 --> 00:13:33.679
<v Speaker 1>the big club, a one thirteen earra throwing ninety nine

242
00:13:33.720 --> 00:13:37.000
<v Speaker 1>miles an hour with a great secondary pitches, particularly his

243
00:13:37.080 --> 00:13:39.720
<v Speaker 1>change up. This is really good. And then he blew

244
00:13:39.759 --> 00:13:42.799
<v Speaker 1>out his elbow and we lost him for a year plus.

245
00:13:42.879 --> 00:13:46.200
<v Speaker 1>And he's finally back this year and he's got not

246
00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:49.320
<v Speaker 1>a great era of four forty six earra, but it's

247
00:13:49.320 --> 00:13:53.159
<v Speaker 1>striking out ten per nine. He's walking under two per nine.

248
00:13:53.600 --> 00:13:56.399
<v Speaker 1>He's got a bad babbit against him. That's why you

249
00:13:56.399 --> 00:13:58.799
<v Speaker 1>know that he's had a few more run scored against

250
00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:02.600
<v Speaker 1>the plus it's the PC. Since he's got healthy timmy

251
00:14:02.759 --> 00:14:05.080
<v Speaker 1>and gets stretched out again. I think we see him

252
00:14:05.080 --> 00:14:06.720
<v Speaker 1>in a couple three weeks, and I know he's in

253
00:14:06.759 --> 00:14:09.120
<v Speaker 1>your wave where I thought it was really smart for

254
00:14:09.159 --> 00:14:11.320
<v Speaker 1>you to include him, to say, hey, beat the rush

255
00:14:11.480 --> 00:14:14.879
<v Speaker 1>for River Ryan. He's the guy that's coming up. And

256
00:14:15.320 --> 00:14:18.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm all I've been all in for River Ryan.

257
00:14:18.480 --> 00:14:21.679
<v Speaker 1>He is twenty seven and he's just been heard a lot.

258
00:14:21.879 --> 00:14:25.840
<v Speaker 1>Former infielder that got converted to a picture kind of

259
00:14:25.919 --> 00:14:29.799
<v Speaker 1>allah Jacob de Gram. That's that's who he reminds me

260
00:14:29.840 --> 00:14:31.320
<v Speaker 1>a lot of. I doubt he has the career of

261
00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:34.600
<v Speaker 1>Jacob de Gram, but that highly athletic guy with really

262
00:14:34.639 --> 00:14:37.080
<v Speaker 1>good stuff. So that's River Ryan.

263
00:14:38.120 --> 00:14:42.279
<v Speaker 2>Anything that, No, I think we're going to see River

264
00:14:42.399 --> 00:14:44.759
<v Speaker 2>Ryan as soon as he's healthy. And I think he's

265
00:14:44.799 --> 00:14:49.440
<v Speaker 2>dealing with a hamstring issue if I'm not mistaken, So yeah,

266
00:14:50.080 --> 00:14:53.960
<v Speaker 2>as soon as he's healthy. Uh, that's why I'm recommending

267
00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:57.919
<v Speaker 2>by by now, well he's you know, hey, I'm sure

268
00:14:57.960 --> 00:15:01.720
<v Speaker 2>everybody's going to be taking that approach anyways. But stating

269
00:15:01.759 --> 00:15:06.320
<v Speaker 2>the obvious, Yeah, by now he's hey, the week he

270
00:15:06.360 --> 00:15:08.759
<v Speaker 2>gets called up, you're going to pay a small fortune

271
00:15:08.799 --> 00:15:09.159
<v Speaker 2>for him.

272
00:15:10.279 --> 00:15:13.279
<v Speaker 1>So people ask me how how I knew it was ZAYR.

273
00:15:13.320 --> 00:15:15.159
<v Speaker 1>Hope and River Ryan. Did somebody tell me that the

274
00:15:15.200 --> 00:15:18.000
<v Speaker 1>answer was no, they didn't. It was I. First of all,

275
00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:24.159
<v Speaker 1>I thought the scuba going to the Dodgers was even money.

276
00:15:24.399 --> 00:15:26.320
<v Speaker 1>That's where he was seen to be going, and the

277
00:15:26.360 --> 00:15:31.159
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers could out spend everybody on him and River Ryan

278
00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:36.399
<v Speaker 1>based on his stuff is basically because he hasn't pitched

279
00:15:36.399 --> 00:15:39.120
<v Speaker 1>all that long, it's a fairly fresh arm. That's why

280
00:15:39.159 --> 00:15:43.159
<v Speaker 1>I set him over Emmitt Shean. So that's my logic

281
00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:45.240
<v Speaker 1>for doing River Ryan, and then my logic for doing

282
00:15:45.320 --> 00:15:47.639
<v Speaker 1>Zayr Hope. And I'll just write you what I wrote

283
00:15:47.720 --> 00:15:51.799
<v Speaker 1>yesterday morning before the trade, and this is because he's

284
00:15:51.879 --> 00:15:55.360
<v Speaker 1>going to come out on my notes on tomorrow for

285
00:15:55.480 --> 00:15:58.200
<v Speaker 1>patron members. And so here's what I wrote. I'm writing

286
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:01.200
<v Speaker 1>this Saturday morning, eight one. Zaire Hope is still a

287
00:16:01.240 --> 00:16:05.000
<v Speaker 1>Dodger and still on an absolute tear. Over the past

288
00:16:05.000 --> 00:16:07.519
<v Speaker 1>six days, he's launched seven home runs while hitting three

289
00:16:07.679 --> 00:16:12.120
<v Speaker 1>ninety one, a stretch that's impossible for cross checkers in

290
00:16:12.200 --> 00:16:16.240
<v Speaker 1>front office evaluators to ignore. He's might pick to be

291
00:16:16.279 --> 00:16:20.039
<v Speaker 1>moved for Trek Scougle and recency bias is real scouts

292
00:16:20.080 --> 00:16:22.960
<v Speaker 1>who haven't seen him much are now watching him dominate

293
00:16:23.480 --> 00:16:27.600
<v Speaker 1>as their as they file their report. Timing is often

294
00:16:27.759 --> 00:16:31.159
<v Speaker 1>nine tenths of the wall. So I mean, look, they

295
00:16:31.200 --> 00:16:33.360
<v Speaker 1>had a bunch of people to choose from. Zyre Hope

296
00:16:33.600 --> 00:16:37.120
<v Speaker 1>is the guy that's got the most fantasy upside, and

297
00:16:37.399 --> 00:16:42.320
<v Speaker 1>of all of the Josh de Paula, et cetera. Serota.

298
00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:44.840
<v Speaker 1>He's got the highest upside, but it's also the highest

299
00:16:44.879 --> 00:16:46.320
<v Speaker 1>risk because we don't know if he's going to hit.

300
00:16:46.960 --> 00:16:49.159
<v Speaker 1>But that's the guy that you know if you're swinging

301
00:16:49.159 --> 00:16:51.919
<v Speaker 1>for the fences, that's who you bring in. Do you

302
00:16:51.960 --> 00:16:54.279
<v Speaker 1>see say coming up this season.

303
00:16:55.480 --> 00:16:57.679
<v Speaker 2>I think there's a possibility you might see in the

304
00:16:57.759 --> 00:17:00.200
<v Speaker 2>last couple of weeks of the season, just for cup

305
00:17:00.240 --> 00:17:05.200
<v Speaker 2>of coffee. But I don't They've assigned him to Yerie, Okay.

306
00:17:05.799 --> 00:17:09.039
<v Speaker 2>I don't think there's no reason for them to be

307
00:17:09.079 --> 00:17:11.960
<v Speaker 2>in a big hurry this year. The service time counts.

308
00:17:12.599 --> 00:17:14.640
<v Speaker 2>Take it, you know what I mean. Like I said,

309
00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:16.640
<v Speaker 2>other than a cup of coffee, I don't see him.

310
00:17:16.680 --> 00:17:21.400
<v Speaker 2>But when it comes to next spring and our re

311
00:17:21.680 --> 00:17:28.880
<v Speaker 2>draft leagues, my thoughts there right now are he should

312
00:17:28.920 --> 00:17:32.799
<v Speaker 2>be drafted at the actual draft. I think he'd be

313
00:17:32.880 --> 00:17:35.960
<v Speaker 2>up early next year, very early. I think you're gonna

314
00:17:35.960 --> 00:17:37.400
<v Speaker 2>want a roster Yeah.

315
00:17:37.440 --> 00:17:39.079
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he's going to spend much time in year.

316
00:17:39.119 --> 00:17:41.720
<v Speaker 1>He's been in Double A all season. I think he

317
00:17:41.799 --> 00:17:43.920
<v Speaker 1>finishes in Triple A. And I'm totally with you. I

318
00:17:43.920 --> 00:17:47.279
<v Speaker 1>think it's totally possible that he sees a cup of

319
00:17:47.359 --> 00:17:50.160
<v Speaker 1>coffee here nuts, so he can still be rookie eligible

320
00:17:50.200 --> 00:17:54.359
<v Speaker 1>going into next season. It gives the Tigers two months

321
00:17:54.359 --> 00:17:59.079
<v Speaker 1>to get Max Clark totally in Meshton major League Baseball.

322
00:17:59.119 --> 00:18:01.319
<v Speaker 1>Doesn't look like he's need a whole lot.

323
00:18:02.400 --> 00:18:04.960
<v Speaker 2>No, after two games, isn't he already emactioned?

324
00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:08.440
<v Speaker 1>It could be. I mean, it's it's pretty impressive what

325
00:18:08.480 --> 00:18:10.319
<v Speaker 1>he's done. We're going to talk about him a little later,

326
00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:15.079
<v Speaker 1>but you know, it's he's The upside is huge here.

327
00:18:15.119 --> 00:18:19.160
<v Speaker 1>The fantasy upside is huge here is provided he hits.

328
00:18:19.759 --> 00:18:22.000
<v Speaker 1>There is some concern about how much he hits, and

329
00:18:22.079 --> 00:18:25.160
<v Speaker 1>I think that's the only thing that that we're worried about.

330
00:18:25.160 --> 00:18:26.640
<v Speaker 1>But the tools are definitely there.

331
00:18:27.720 --> 00:18:30.359
<v Speaker 2>What do you think as far as Brady Smith is,

332
00:18:30.440 --> 00:18:33.880
<v Speaker 2>if possible we see him in twenty seven again, assuming

333
00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:38.039
<v Speaker 2>there's using uh is twenty seven and mid twenty seven

334
00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:40.400
<v Speaker 2>reasonable target for Smith? Or think?

335
00:18:40.519 --> 00:18:42.599
<v Speaker 1>So? I think he's I think there's I think he's

336
00:18:42.599 --> 00:18:44.759
<v Speaker 1>a little a little bit further out than that. He

337
00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:48.880
<v Speaker 1>just started in High A. It's big stuff and his

338
00:18:49.000 --> 00:18:51.440
<v Speaker 1>control is improving. I think he's I've got him in

339
00:18:51.559 --> 00:18:56.279
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty eight Dash twenty nine guy, But it's a

340
00:18:56.279 --> 00:18:59.759
<v Speaker 1>fastball that's up to ninety seven. It's big stuff.

341
00:19:00.640 --> 00:19:02.839
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, you tell.

342
00:19:02.960 --> 00:19:05.599
<v Speaker 1>If you tell me he's better long term than River Ryan,

343
00:19:05.640 --> 00:19:08.519
<v Speaker 1>it would not shock me. It's that kind of upside.

344
00:19:09.039 --> 00:19:11.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know, and all of a sudden, yeah, you know,

345
00:19:11.599 --> 00:19:13.720
<v Speaker 2>you take you take a look at the Tigers, and

346
00:19:13.759 --> 00:19:17.640
<v Speaker 2>you got River Ryan, and you've got Brady Smith, okay,

347
00:19:17.680 --> 00:19:22.640
<v Speaker 2>and then you know you've got Melton.

348
00:19:23.720 --> 00:19:27.640
<v Speaker 1>That's a that's a good rotation of River Ryan, Melton,

349
00:19:29.119 --> 00:19:33.799
<v Speaker 1>Jackson job coming back job, and and Framer Valdez can't

350
00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:35.839
<v Speaker 1>be this bad, right, I mean, he's.

351
00:19:35.640 --> 00:19:39.319
<v Speaker 2>Gonna it's good when his last one one of the streak, right.

352
00:19:39.200 --> 00:19:42.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So I mean that's I mean, yeah, they're going

353
00:19:42.920 --> 00:19:45.640
<v Speaker 1>to miss trek' scoogle, but that's not horrible. That's that's

354
00:19:45.680 --> 00:19:48.400
<v Speaker 1>a that's a rotation you go to war with and

355
00:19:48.440 --> 00:19:51.880
<v Speaker 1>any start to take a look at their offense gets

356
00:19:52.160 --> 00:19:54.880
<v Speaker 1>probably at the end of twenty twenty seven, assuming there's

357
00:19:54.880 --> 00:19:57.720
<v Speaker 1>a full season or most of the season, you got

358
00:19:57.759 --> 00:20:00.599
<v Speaker 1>Max Clark and center, you got Riley Green, then left

359
00:20:00.640 --> 00:20:03.079
<v Speaker 1>and you've got Zay your Hope sitting and right, you've

360
00:20:03.119 --> 00:20:07.880
<v Speaker 1>got up the middle, you've got you've got mcdonagall, uh

361
00:20:07.920 --> 00:20:12.119
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, Glabor Torres and then at first it's either Torqua,

362
00:20:12.200 --> 00:20:16.720
<v Speaker 1>center Hasway, the Hosway Brasino coming up who might play catcher,

363
00:20:17.039 --> 00:20:20.000
<v Speaker 1>And that's starting to look like a pretty good, young,

364
00:20:20.160 --> 00:20:23.400
<v Speaker 1>controllable team. That's becomes really exciting for me.

365
00:20:24.359 --> 00:20:28.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Dylan Danler behind the blade, Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's yeah,

366
00:20:28.880 --> 00:20:35.039
<v Speaker 2>there's uh, there's enough offense there, yeah, and very solid offense.

367
00:20:35.440 --> 00:20:39.400
<v Speaker 2>Mcgonagal's just been yeah, there's your Ale Rookie of the

368
00:20:39.440 --> 00:20:42.160
<v Speaker 2>Year as far as I'm concerned.

369
00:20:42.599 --> 00:20:45.119
<v Speaker 1>The other thing, with one of the reasons, I thought

370
00:20:45.119 --> 00:20:48.640
<v Speaker 1>they would pick Zaire Hope like Mike Mike Saroda is

371
00:20:48.680 --> 00:20:53.200
<v Speaker 1>another another great Los Angeles Dodger outfielder, and so is

372
00:20:53.200 --> 00:20:56.559
<v Speaker 1>Hosway to Palla, but they're more like mcgonaghill and Max

373
00:20:56.640 --> 00:21:00.759
<v Speaker 1>Clark hit first guys that have some power the basis well, well,

374
00:21:00.759 --> 00:21:02.839
<v Speaker 1>actually mcconaga really doesn't run the base as well. But

375
00:21:03.279 --> 00:21:08.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean those are really really high floor players. Zire

376
00:21:08.599 --> 00:21:13.400
<v Speaker 1>Hope is the is the Byron Buckston Connor Griffin kind

377
00:21:13.400 --> 00:21:16.359
<v Speaker 1>of upside, the huge upside, and I think you take

378
00:21:16.400 --> 00:21:19.240
<v Speaker 1>a swing when you've got a lot of these really

379
00:21:19.319 --> 00:21:22.119
<v Speaker 1>high floor guys on your team already. So that's another

380
00:21:22.160 --> 00:21:23.920
<v Speaker 1>reason I thought, say your hope would be the guy.

381
00:21:25.039 --> 00:21:28.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no, I think it's a great trade. I do

382
00:21:28.240 --> 00:21:30.319
<v Speaker 2>have to chuckle over when I see some of the

383
00:21:30.359 --> 00:21:35.720
<v Speaker 2>comments on Twitter, I really do tell me more. Well,

384
00:21:36.160 --> 00:21:40.480
<v Speaker 2>a lot of them are in the direction of, well,

385
00:21:40.599 --> 00:21:42.480
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers got all the money, they can do this. This

386
00:21:42.920 --> 00:21:46.640
<v Speaker 2>isn't about money. What this is about is the Dodgers

387
00:21:46.680 --> 00:21:51.319
<v Speaker 2>being able to develop a good farm system and move

388
00:21:51.359 --> 00:21:54.599
<v Speaker 2>it at the right time. Anybody can afford Terry's Google

389
00:21:54.640 --> 00:21:58.599
<v Speaker 2>for two months. If you can't afford teris even the Rockies,

390
00:21:58.680 --> 00:22:02.279
<v Speaker 2>the Pirates. You know, you're looking at what at most

391
00:22:02.359 --> 00:22:04.559
<v Speaker 2>a third of his salary from this year. It's not

392
00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:08.720
<v Speaker 2>about money. When they if they resign him to a

393
00:22:08.759 --> 00:22:11.599
<v Speaker 2>long term deal, then it's about money. But this trade

394
00:22:11.640 --> 00:22:15.960
<v Speaker 2>is about the Dodgers developing a farm system that they

395
00:22:16.000 --> 00:22:18.039
<v Speaker 2>can shop for the parts that they need to put

396
00:22:18.079 --> 00:22:21.799
<v Speaker 2>them over the top. And every one of the thirty

397
00:22:21.839 --> 00:22:25.000
<v Speaker 2>teams in Major League Baseball can develop a farm system

398
00:22:25.160 --> 00:22:29.319
<v Speaker 2>in theory. Okay, So when I hear it's all about

399
00:22:29.319 --> 00:22:31.279
<v Speaker 2>the money, yeah, yeah, yea, yeah, that to me is

400
00:22:31.359 --> 00:22:33.839
<v Speaker 2>just crap. Sorry, but that's all right.

401
00:22:34.559 --> 00:22:37.359
<v Speaker 1>I wrote it up. I can encourage everybody to go

402
00:22:37.400 --> 00:22:40.319
<v Speaker 1>read my notes of what I wrote up about the Dodgers.

403
00:22:40.359 --> 00:22:43.599
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, the thing that I found the most compelling,

404
00:22:44.319 --> 00:22:47.400
<v Speaker 1>Sarah Hope was not signed by the Dodgers. He was

405
00:22:47.440 --> 00:22:50.599
<v Speaker 1>signed by the Cups. River Ryan was not signed by

406
00:22:50.680 --> 00:22:54.160
<v Speaker 1>the Dodgers. He was also traded for. So not only

407
00:22:55.000 --> 00:23:00.559
<v Speaker 1>not only did did they pull off this trade selling

408
00:23:00.599 --> 00:23:04.119
<v Speaker 1>some excess capacity they have, they were smart enough to

409
00:23:04.160 --> 00:23:08.279
<v Speaker 1>bring these players in. That's just that's just good management, Tim,

410
00:23:08.319 --> 00:23:11.200
<v Speaker 1>and that's all it is. I absolutely agree with you. Yeah,

411
00:23:11.359 --> 00:23:13.359
<v Speaker 1>the show, Hey Tommy and some of the other big

412
00:23:13.359 --> 00:23:15.519
<v Speaker 1>free agent signs, that is about money, but this is

413
00:23:15.559 --> 00:23:18.160
<v Speaker 1>about really good baseball management.

414
00:23:19.119 --> 00:23:23.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. You know every time down the road that I see, well,

415
00:23:23.200 --> 00:23:26.400
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers gave up on you were Dan Elbraz Yeah yeah, yeah,

416
00:23:26.440 --> 00:23:29.359
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna say, well, yeah, but they also got during Scooble,

417
00:23:29.640 --> 00:23:33.799
<v Speaker 2>uh for two prospects that weren't in their system. You

418
00:23:33.880 --> 00:23:35.680
<v Speaker 2>win some, you lose them, but you got to have

419
00:23:35.839 --> 00:23:38.480
<v Speaker 2>them to be able to be able to win. And

420
00:23:38.519 --> 00:23:44.279
<v Speaker 2>that's what the Dodgers did here. They're they're they acquired

421
00:23:44.319 --> 00:23:47.480
<v Speaker 2>the right players. They developed these players, and now they

422
00:23:47.519 --> 00:23:50.200
<v Speaker 2>have moved them for what they need to attempt to

423
00:23:50.200 --> 00:23:53.240
<v Speaker 2>get a third World Series. But this is not about money.

424
00:23:53.440 --> 00:23:56.400
<v Speaker 2>This is about the Dodgers' ability to acquire the talent.

425
00:23:57.000 --> 00:23:59.920
<v Speaker 2>And for everyone that they lose, they're gaining some back.

426
00:24:00.440 --> 00:24:03.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and double down to this. If people are looking

427
00:24:04.000 --> 00:24:06.839
<v Speaker 1>for one hundred percent that the Dodgers make no mistakes,

428
00:24:07.240 --> 00:24:10.359
<v Speaker 1>that's that's unfair. That's that's too much to ask of

429
00:24:10.559 --> 00:24:12.920
<v Speaker 1>any entity. I mean, so, yeah, so they blew it

430
00:24:13.000 --> 00:24:16.200
<v Speaker 1>on your ant Alvarez. Jake Galoff is a number first

431
00:24:16.279 --> 00:24:17.720
<v Speaker 1>round draftic. He's not going to make it. I mean,

432
00:24:17.720 --> 00:24:21.039
<v Speaker 1>they they have swing and missus all the time, but

433
00:24:21.119 --> 00:24:23.839
<v Speaker 1>for the most part, most of the times they swing,

434
00:24:24.039 --> 00:24:27.799
<v Speaker 1>they make connections. I also wrote and talk to some

435
00:24:27.839 --> 00:24:31.599
<v Speaker 1>people in this aspect of it, that the Dodgers are

436
00:24:31.640 --> 00:24:34.519
<v Speaker 1>worried that there's going to be some changes in the

437
00:24:34.559 --> 00:24:37.839
<v Speaker 1>collective bargaining Agreement, where let's face it, tempty the other

438
00:24:37.880 --> 00:24:40.160
<v Speaker 1>twenty nine teams don't like what the Dodgers are doing.

439
00:24:40.200 --> 00:24:43.920
<v Speaker 1>They're they're building a juggernaut and they're probably going to

440
00:24:44.000 --> 00:24:47.599
<v Speaker 1>look to make rules to guard against that. And if

441
00:24:47.599 --> 00:24:51.200
<v Speaker 1>you're the Dodgers, you got to take advantage of being

442
00:24:51.240 --> 00:24:53.319
<v Speaker 1>the first team in the National League to ever three

443
00:24:53.400 --> 00:24:56.160
<v Speaker 1>peet and do you know? This is what it's all

444
00:24:56.240 --> 00:24:59.720
<v Speaker 1>about winning. So how do you how do you criticize

445
00:24:59.759 --> 00:25:01.920
<v Speaker 1>him for doing They're playing within the rules.

446
00:25:02.440 --> 00:25:05.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they're playing within the rules. And you know what,

447
00:25:05.759 --> 00:25:08.000
<v Speaker 2>there are twenty nine other teams out there that can

448
00:25:08.039 --> 00:25:11.000
<v Speaker 2>invest a little bit more in their scouting department, their

449
00:25:11.039 --> 00:25:17.240
<v Speaker 2>analytics and they have the exact same opportunities as the

450
00:25:17.319 --> 00:25:20.720
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers to acquire talent. Maybe what they have to do

451
00:25:20.839 --> 00:25:22.759
<v Speaker 2>is look at them, pull out a mirror, look in

452
00:25:22.799 --> 00:25:25.519
<v Speaker 2>the mirror and say why are the Dodgers doing this?

453
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:31.279
<v Speaker 2>And maybe improve on that aspect of their club and

454
00:25:31.359 --> 00:25:33.799
<v Speaker 2>get to that stage. You know what I mean. It's hey,

455
00:25:33.960 --> 00:25:36.880
<v Speaker 2>how do you fault the Dodgers for the fact that

456
00:25:37.880 --> 00:25:40.279
<v Speaker 2>they ended up with You're hope in the trade in

457
00:25:40.640 --> 00:25:43.319
<v Speaker 2>your river ride? Yeah, you can't fault the Dodgers for that.

458
00:25:43.480 --> 00:25:46.839
<v Speaker 2>You can't fault them for anything in them. Hey, what

459
00:25:46.960 --> 00:25:49.480
<v Speaker 2>they pay for people coming out of the draft is

460
00:25:49.559 --> 00:25:53.839
<v Speaker 2>exactly the same as the Colorado Rockies. It's you know

461
00:25:53.920 --> 00:25:55.000
<v Speaker 2>what I mean, It's that's right.

462
00:25:55.200 --> 00:25:59.559
<v Speaker 1>It's in fact, they have doors drafted after the Colorado Rockies.

463
00:26:00.000 --> 00:26:03.519
<v Speaker 1>All those players were available that they got this road

464
00:26:03.640 --> 00:26:05.519
<v Speaker 1>is they were all available for the Rockies to get.

465
00:26:06.039 --> 00:26:09.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah, I have no sympathy for team for the

466
00:26:09.559 --> 00:26:12.400
<v Speaker 2>other for the twenty nine team owners out there, the

467
00:26:12.440 --> 00:26:16.559
<v Speaker 2>ones that are whining, I have no sympathy, no compassion whatsoever.

468
00:26:16.920 --> 00:26:21.599
<v Speaker 2>Do your job. Spend some money on your analytics, Okay,

469
00:26:21.759 --> 00:26:27.160
<v Speaker 2>and you're your analysis folks, you know, and why can't

470
00:26:27.240 --> 00:26:29.759
<v Speaker 2>you do the same thing as the Dodgers. You can

471
00:26:30.839 --> 00:26:33.640
<v Speaker 2>just do it. Quit whining about the fact that the

472
00:26:33.720 --> 00:26:37.599
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers have all this talent. Well, hey, how'd they get

473
00:26:37.640 --> 00:26:41.079
<v Speaker 2>this talent by doing something you're not spending a little

474
00:26:41.119 --> 00:26:43.519
<v Speaker 2>bit of money on your front office people.

475
00:26:43.880 --> 00:26:45.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean that is what they're doing. I mean

476
00:26:45.640 --> 00:26:48.200
<v Speaker 1>they've got they've done better scouts, they have better analytics,

477
00:26:48.359 --> 00:26:51.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, they have better models. But yet the Rays

478
00:26:51.720 --> 00:26:54.680
<v Speaker 1>have done very similar stuff. The Milwaukee Brewers have done

479
00:26:54.720 --> 00:26:57.359
<v Speaker 1>some or like the Angels or Angels are an hour

480
00:26:57.359 --> 00:27:00.880
<v Speaker 1>down the road and like they're they're well everything they

481
00:27:00.960 --> 00:27:05.359
<v Speaker 1>do is seems to go the opposite. And think, I'm

482
00:27:05.359 --> 00:27:07.799
<v Speaker 1>almost only lucky with Mike Trout and that's what they've

483
00:27:07.839 --> 00:27:10.279
<v Speaker 1>been living off for the last fifteen years.

484
00:27:10.680 --> 00:27:13.720
<v Speaker 2>Well yeah, yeah, and they they did well with shoey Otani.

485
00:27:14.240 --> 00:27:15.440
<v Speaker 1>That's fair, that's true.

486
00:27:16.640 --> 00:27:21.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but again for the most part, yeah, they're fifteen

487
00:27:21.559 --> 00:27:24.880
<v Speaker 2>years behind the Dodgers when it comes to their their

488
00:27:24.920 --> 00:27:28.119
<v Speaker 2>scouting and s and that's something that they can address

489
00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:32.799
<v Speaker 2>and only they can address. My you, so, team owners

490
00:27:32.880 --> 00:27:38.319
<v Speaker 2>whining about this particular set of circumstances. No sympathy here,

491
00:27:39.119 --> 00:27:43.519
<v Speaker 2>new confession whatsoever. Keep whining because that's all it is.

492
00:27:44.920 --> 00:27:48.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. So, so that that's our take on the Dodgers.

493
00:27:48.559 --> 00:27:51.759
<v Speaker 1>And look, if the Dodgers make it to the World Series,

494
00:27:51.960 --> 00:27:54.200
<v Speaker 1>I will be rooting for the team playing them. So

495
00:27:54.319 --> 00:27:57.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, yeah, I look, I want to see the

496
00:27:57.200 --> 00:28:00.039
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers get defeated because you're you're defeating the best and

497
00:28:00.519 --> 00:28:03.319
<v Speaker 1>people don't. But go take a look and talk to

498
00:28:03.400 --> 00:28:09.359
<v Speaker 1>television executives. They will tell you they love the Dodgers because,

499
00:28:10.279 --> 00:28:12.480
<v Speaker 1>first of all, it's a huge market. Lots of people

500
00:28:12.519 --> 00:28:15.359
<v Speaker 1>are tuned into Los Angeles, but everybody also wants to

501
00:28:15.440 --> 00:28:20.039
<v Speaker 1>knock off the Dodgers, and it presents compelling television, compelling

502
00:28:20.079 --> 00:28:24.559
<v Speaker 1>sporting events. You know, Canada, Canada whatever, you know, the

503
00:28:24.759 --> 00:28:27.920
<v Speaker 1>can the Blue Jays, you know, the the ragtag Blue

504
00:28:28.000 --> 00:28:30.799
<v Speaker 1>Jays defeat the Dodgers, and they came, they came within

505
00:28:30.839 --> 00:28:33.000
<v Speaker 1>a couple of outs or beating the Dodgers, and that

506
00:28:33.160 --> 00:28:36.680
<v Speaker 1>makes compelling television and compelling sport, and that's I think

507
00:28:36.720 --> 00:28:38.640
<v Speaker 1>that's what these guys are looking for as well. So

508
00:28:38.680 --> 00:28:41.400
<v Speaker 1>it's not always all bad to have the New York

509
00:28:41.480 --> 00:28:43.240
<v Speaker 1>Yankees of the twenty twenties.

510
00:28:44.440 --> 00:28:48.480
<v Speaker 2>No, and yeah, that's a fair column. Yeah, very fair.

511
00:28:49.000 --> 00:28:52.599
<v Speaker 2>Everybody hates the winners. Everybody's pretty underdog as a rule. Yeah,

512
00:28:52.680 --> 00:28:55.880
<v Speaker 2>that's less right unless you reside in that community and

513
00:28:56.240 --> 00:28:56.519
<v Speaker 2>you know.

514
00:28:56.519 --> 00:29:02.279
<v Speaker 1>You resigning that community, you're thrilled, and you resigne outside

515
00:29:02.319 --> 00:29:04.319
<v Speaker 1>the community. You want to see them get beaten. That's

516
00:29:04.359 --> 00:29:07.319
<v Speaker 1>what makes it fun. I think that's what it's all about.

517
00:29:07.400 --> 00:29:11.640
<v Speaker 2>Right, And advertisers like that, don't they because people watch it.

518
00:29:12.039 --> 00:29:14.079
<v Speaker 1>That's right, that's right to me. That's take a break,

519
00:29:14.079 --> 00:29:15.920
<v Speaker 1>and we've got lots of other stuff to talk about.

520
00:29:28.279 --> 00:29:30.799
<v Speaker 1>Two or three antheonys. There's so much here. I'm going

521
00:29:30.839 --> 00:29:32.519
<v Speaker 1>to get to your waiver wire as well. But the

522
00:29:32.519 --> 00:29:35.519
<v Speaker 1>White Sox acquir Lewis Castillo from the Mariners and pay

523
00:29:35.559 --> 00:29:39.799
<v Speaker 1>his entire twenty twenty seventh salary the rest of twenty

524
00:29:39.880 --> 00:29:42.079
<v Speaker 1>twenty six, and if he pitches one hundred innings in

525
00:29:42.119 --> 00:29:46.160
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty seven, which probably won't happen because of the lockout,

526
00:29:46.319 --> 00:29:49.960
<v Speaker 1>he his his he vests his twenty twenty eight option.

527
00:29:50.960 --> 00:29:56.039
<v Speaker 1>In return, the Mariners received this this Bleweyway relievers. Sir Anthony,

528
00:29:56.200 --> 00:29:59.440
<v Speaker 1>I actually laughed out. I saw that, Sir Anthony, to

529
00:29:59.519 --> 00:30:04.079
<v Speaker 1>mean guests, I do not, Yeah, don't field Nolan Jones

530
00:30:04.279 --> 00:30:09.079
<v Speaker 1>really and double a catcher Boston. So this is a decent,

531
00:30:09.319 --> 00:30:11.759
<v Speaker 1>small kind of minor prospects, some guy to keep an

532
00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:16.200
<v Speaker 1>eye on. But Timmy, this one's really interesting because we

533
00:30:16.279 --> 00:30:18.720
<v Speaker 1>knew that the Mariners were going to move some pitching,

534
00:30:18.960 --> 00:30:20.880
<v Speaker 1>and you and I both thought, and I think the

535
00:30:20.920 --> 00:30:25.000
<v Speaker 1>whole world thought, they need positional bats back, and Nolan

536
00:30:25.079 --> 00:30:26.960
<v Speaker 1>Jones is at least having a pretty good season and

537
00:30:27.160 --> 00:30:31.319
<v Speaker 1>and triple A. They didn't get any any any bats

538
00:30:31.359 --> 00:30:31.799
<v Speaker 1>back here.

539
00:30:33.240 --> 00:30:37.160
<v Speaker 2>No, it's a very if you just look at Yeah,

540
00:30:37.200 --> 00:30:39.200
<v Speaker 2>there's a reason to sort of a truckle. Yeah, they

541
00:30:39.200 --> 00:30:42.880
<v Speaker 2>didn't get any bats back. They moved and created spot

542
00:30:42.920 --> 00:30:46.720
<v Speaker 2>for Kate Anderson. Yay, you know, no.

543
00:30:46.880 --> 00:30:49.680
<v Speaker 1>No, they moved and they got to move somebody else

544
00:30:49.720 --> 00:30:52.559
<v Speaker 1>because now Bryce Bryce Miller's got a roll, so they're

545
00:30:52.599 --> 00:30:57.400
<v Speaker 1>back to now five and say six. But I think

546
00:30:59.279 --> 00:31:01.680
<v Speaker 1>I think callery dump. It's a salary. That's the only

547
00:31:01.720 --> 00:31:03.839
<v Speaker 1>thing that I concluded. I mean, what else is there?

548
00:31:04.039 --> 00:31:06.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? Yeah, Is Nolan Jones ready to step in and

549
00:31:07.000 --> 00:31:10.960
<v Speaker 2>improve upon what they already have? No, I don't think so.

550
00:31:11.359 --> 00:31:13.359
<v Speaker 2>Maybe you think differently, But.

551
00:31:13.839 --> 00:31:16.960
<v Speaker 1>He's having he's having a nice bounce back and trip away.

552
00:31:17.119 --> 00:31:20.599
<v Speaker 1>But you cannot count on Nolan Jones. Is not the

553
00:31:20.680 --> 00:31:23.880
<v Speaker 1>meciety here. If you're counting on Nolan Jones to be

554
00:31:23.920 --> 00:31:25.480
<v Speaker 1>your massides and maybe he comes up and can do

555
00:31:25.559 --> 00:31:27.839
<v Speaker 1>what he did was a twenty twenty four to twenty

556
00:31:27.839 --> 00:31:31.480
<v Speaker 1>three with the Rockies, Okay, But I mean that you

557
00:31:32.599 --> 00:31:34.680
<v Speaker 1>that's how you lose a job. By counted all that.

558
00:31:35.039 --> 00:31:41.119
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, I was gonna say, yeah, no, that's yeah. By.

559
00:31:41.240 --> 00:31:45.839
<v Speaker 2>On the other hand, the White Sox very sneakily got

560
00:31:45.880 --> 00:31:49.480
<v Speaker 2>themselves a picture that's going to improve their club and

561
00:31:49.519 --> 00:31:52.400
<v Speaker 2>then it cost them And it didn't cost them anything,

562
00:31:52.440 --> 00:31:53.000
<v Speaker 2>really did it.

563
00:31:53.039 --> 00:31:59.839
<v Speaker 1>No? That cost them money. They caught money. But I

564
00:32:00.039 --> 00:32:03.359
<v Speaker 1>mean I looked at Lois, what's that?

565
00:32:04.359 --> 00:32:05.279
<v Speaker 2>Oh, go ahead?

566
00:32:05.799 --> 00:32:09.519
<v Speaker 1>I looked at Lewis Castille's stuff and on on Baseball

567
00:32:09.559 --> 00:32:13.440
<v Speaker 1>Slavant and his slider is the thing that's that was

568
00:32:13.440 --> 00:32:15.759
<v Speaker 1>always his killer pitch, that was his outpitch. It has

569
00:32:15.799 --> 00:32:19.160
<v Speaker 1>not been very good this season. The velocity is still fine.

570
00:32:19.960 --> 00:32:23.000
<v Speaker 1>Uh So if the Whites, I mean, every team that

571
00:32:23.079 --> 00:32:26.480
<v Speaker 1>trades with somebody, there's there's a coach somewhere that's going.

572
00:32:26.680 --> 00:32:29.839
<v Speaker 1>I can fix that. That's just that's that's what I do, right,

573
00:32:30.079 --> 00:32:33.200
<v Speaker 1>I can fix that. So maybe there's something they've seen

574
00:32:33.559 --> 00:32:37.240
<v Speaker 1>in Castile's delivery that they can can get him throwing

575
00:32:37.319 --> 00:32:40.200
<v Speaker 1>the slider right again. I mean, the Mariners are really

576
00:32:40.200 --> 00:32:43.599
<v Speaker 1>good at this, so I don't know, but to me, look,

577
00:32:43.640 --> 00:32:45.880
<v Speaker 1>he becomes the best picture on that staff. I mean,

578
00:32:45.920 --> 00:32:48.559
<v Speaker 1>it's a staff you know that they've been getting by

579
00:32:48.640 --> 00:32:52.759
<v Speaker 1>with Anthony k and and all these other guys that

580
00:32:52.799 --> 00:32:55.799
<v Speaker 1>are number three four starters, and at least they got

581
00:32:55.839 --> 00:32:57.440
<v Speaker 1>somebody that's got a pedigree.

582
00:32:58.480 --> 00:33:01.680
<v Speaker 2>Well yeah, the pedigree. But the White Socks have done

583
00:33:01.680 --> 00:33:04.680
<v Speaker 2>a pretty good job with Davis Martin, Sean Burke and

584
00:33:04.720 --> 00:33:06.960
<v Speaker 2>Anthony Kay, haven't they absolutely?

585
00:33:07.079 --> 00:33:09.880
<v Speaker 1>Tim But you go the playoffs and that's what you're

586
00:33:09.920 --> 00:33:10.839
<v Speaker 1>gonna throw out there.

587
00:33:11.759 --> 00:33:14.039
<v Speaker 2>But I mean what's to say that they can't They can't.

588
00:33:14.359 --> 00:33:16.079
<v Speaker 2>They can't work with Louis Castillo.

589
00:33:16.160 --> 00:33:19.680
<v Speaker 1>Now, I mean that's a fine point.

590
00:33:20.599 --> 00:33:23.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's you know, Hey, who had Sean burkepeg for

591
00:33:23.680 --> 00:33:26.640
<v Speaker 2>what he's doing, or Davis Martin or Anthony K.

592
00:33:29.079 --> 00:33:31.240
<v Speaker 1>Well you had Anthony K. You had Anthony K.

593
00:33:31.359 --> 00:33:34.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah, Well that's only because I drafted all the

594
00:33:34.279 --> 00:33:36.640
<v Speaker 2>guys that came over. I had hit on one of them.

595
00:33:36.680 --> 00:33:44.799
<v Speaker 1>You would think, finally an admission there, Wow, scattered scatter

596
00:33:44.839 --> 00:33:46.720
<v Speaker 1>approach shots sometimes work.

597
00:33:46.880 --> 00:33:50.160
<v Speaker 2>Okay, well, I've still got the marks on the barn

598
00:33:50.240 --> 00:33:52.240
<v Speaker 2>door where I was, where I was trucking it.

599
00:33:52.759 --> 00:33:53.279
<v Speaker 1>That's true.

600
00:33:53.480 --> 00:33:56.079
<v Speaker 2>So you know what they gotta do is they gotta

601
00:33:56.160 --> 00:33:59.759
<v Speaker 2>sign moa comie to an extension. He loves Chicago, he

602
00:34:00.200 --> 00:34:02.039
<v Speaker 2>was being there. He's only on a two year deal.

603
00:34:02.519 --> 00:34:06.440
<v Speaker 2>What they have to do and quickly? While Mirakami is

604
00:34:06.599 --> 00:34:10.039
<v Speaker 2>enamored with Chicago, he loves it there. Yeah yeah, yeah,

605
00:34:10.360 --> 00:34:12.960
<v Speaker 2>throw three three to five years at him for one

606
00:34:13.000 --> 00:34:15.280
<v Speaker 2>hundred plus mill and get him inked long term.

607
00:34:16.719 --> 00:34:20.320
<v Speaker 1>Winter hits. Before the winter hits, he realizes, wait a minute,

608
00:34:20.360 --> 00:34:20.960
<v Speaker 1>it's cold here.

609
00:34:23.159 --> 00:34:25.760
<v Speaker 2>He'll be back in Japan enjoying their summer.

610
00:34:28.239 --> 00:34:32.000
<v Speaker 1>Two questions for you, Uh, Nolan Jones did not make

611
00:34:32.039 --> 00:34:36.480
<v Speaker 1>your waiver wire? Is that because you just it's Nolan Jones.

612
00:34:36.480 --> 00:34:38.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm that interested. Nolan Jones is not going to get

613
00:34:38.960 --> 00:34:42.840
<v Speaker 1>promoted or or what was the thinking there?

614
00:34:42.880 --> 00:34:48.199
<v Speaker 2>Did you even consider them all of the above? Okay, Yeah,

615
00:34:48.239 --> 00:34:50.199
<v Speaker 2>I just don't think he's going to get called up

616
00:34:50.320 --> 00:34:50.800
<v Speaker 2>right away.

617
00:34:51.320 --> 00:34:51.440
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

618
00:34:52.000 --> 00:34:58.559
<v Speaker 2>I question the overall skill set. Uh. I'm not saying

619
00:34:58.599 --> 00:35:01.320
<v Speaker 2>there's there's nothing to work work with. There there is,

620
00:35:02.199 --> 00:35:05.199
<v Speaker 2>and he's having a much better year. But I just

621
00:35:05.280 --> 00:35:08.119
<v Speaker 2>don't see them. Yeah, I could be wrong. I just

622
00:35:08.159 --> 00:35:11.840
<v Speaker 2>don't see them looking at Nolan Jones as an answer

623
00:35:12.559 --> 00:35:17.000
<v Speaker 2>that's much better than what they have, if even the

624
00:35:17.039 --> 00:35:19.920
<v Speaker 2>equal to what they already have. So who knows. Maybe

625
00:35:20.079 --> 00:35:23.079
<v Speaker 2>maybe the Mariner is a moving another picture and get

626
00:35:23.079 --> 00:35:27.559
<v Speaker 2>that every day back. But I I he's not a

627
00:35:27.559 --> 00:35:30.519
<v Speaker 2>player I'm targeting right away, you know, And Sir Anthony

628
00:35:30.599 --> 00:35:33.000
<v Speaker 2>dimingus well not passed.

629
00:35:34.800 --> 00:35:37.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, my take and and all of these write ups

630
00:35:37.920 --> 00:35:40.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing. I'm also having my AI assist to give

631
00:35:40.719 --> 00:35:43.760
<v Speaker 1>his take as well. And I think he's the AI

632
00:35:43.840 --> 00:35:46.360
<v Speaker 1>system simply mimicking mine. I'm not seeing a lot of

633
00:35:46.519 --> 00:35:50.719
<v Speaker 1>original thinking there, but that's okay. So but anyway, my

634
00:35:51.280 --> 00:35:55.559
<v Speaker 1>thought was, look, the White Sox improve themselves. Not a

635
00:35:55.599 --> 00:35:58.639
<v Speaker 1>great deal, but they improve themselves. They showed the fans

636
00:35:58.639 --> 00:36:00.119
<v Speaker 1>that they're in it to try to win, which I

637
00:36:00.159 --> 00:36:02.239
<v Speaker 1>think is always a good thing. And they did not

638
00:36:02.519 --> 00:36:06.519
<v Speaker 1>screw up the long term plan of Nold Schultz and

639
00:36:06.559 --> 00:36:09.880
<v Speaker 1>some other guys that Hagen Smith has not been very good,

640
00:36:09.880 --> 00:36:11.639
<v Speaker 1>but some of the guys that they think they're going

641
00:36:11.719 --> 00:36:14.199
<v Speaker 1>to count on from a pitching long term. Nor did

642
00:36:14.199 --> 00:36:17.679
<v Speaker 1>they do something like trade Brandon Montgomery or something like that.

643
00:36:18.480 --> 00:36:23.880
<v Speaker 2>Ye stid Yeah. Money, yeah, and there's melon tickets like

644
00:36:23.960 --> 00:36:27.079
<v Speaker 2>crazy for New Yorkamy. Their attendance has to be up, right,

645
00:36:27.440 --> 00:36:29.199
<v Speaker 2>So they got some more money they can play with,

646
00:36:30.559 --> 00:36:32.519
<v Speaker 2>right Yep.

647
00:36:33.039 --> 00:36:37.800
<v Speaker 1>I think with Seattle, I I think George Kirby or

648
00:36:38.039 --> 00:36:40.679
<v Speaker 1>one of these guys is going to get moved. That's

649
00:36:40.719 --> 00:36:43.519
<v Speaker 1>going to free it up for Kate Anderson and that's

650
00:36:43.559 --> 00:36:46.480
<v Speaker 1>going to bring in the big bat if.

651
00:36:46.119 --> 00:36:49.239
<v Speaker 2>Not, I think I think.

652
00:36:49.079 --> 00:36:52.639
<v Speaker 1>It's malpractice with the with the Seattle Mariners.

653
00:36:53.199 --> 00:36:55.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's dumping salary is what it is.

654
00:36:55.840 --> 00:36:57.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, it's just the.

655
00:36:59.320 --> 00:37:02.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no exactly, Yeah, it's just fringing up cash for

656
00:37:04.760 --> 00:37:07.559
<v Speaker 2>oh Winter in Mexico for the owner. I don't know.

657
00:37:08.239 --> 00:37:10.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Julio Rodriguez is still still young, but I

658
00:37:10.800 --> 00:37:13.199
<v Speaker 1>mean Mike Trout was young at one point. I mean,

659
00:37:13.440 --> 00:37:16.480
<v Speaker 1>these these guys do start to get older, Timmy, and

660
00:37:17.039 --> 00:37:18.880
<v Speaker 1>you got to strike when the iron is hot, when

661
00:37:18.920 --> 00:37:21.199
<v Speaker 1>your team is good, and you got these great pitching,

662
00:37:22.199 --> 00:37:26.119
<v Speaker 1>it's all there. Clearly, Sir Luis Castillo was at Salar

663
00:37:26.159 --> 00:37:29.800
<v Speaker 1>dumb because didn'tet anything back. But I I'm not sure

664
00:37:29.960 --> 00:37:32.719
<v Speaker 1>the White Sox were the appropriate organization to try to

665
00:37:32.719 --> 00:37:35.920
<v Speaker 1>get a young major league player back. So I think

666
00:37:36.000 --> 00:37:38.679
<v Speaker 1>they're they're going to move a big guy and let's

667
00:37:38.679 --> 00:37:42.599
<v Speaker 1>see if it it unlaunches, unlocks something from what the

668
00:37:42.679 --> 00:37:43.639
<v Speaker 1>return is going to be.

669
00:37:44.719 --> 00:37:47.119
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, you look at Randy or Rosarina. He's going

670
00:37:47.159 --> 00:37:52.320
<v Speaker 2>on thirty two, Josh Naylor is in his year, thirty,

671
00:37:52.800 --> 00:37:57.039
<v Speaker 2>cal Reley is thirty. Uh, you know, they got some kids,

672
00:37:57.239 --> 00:38:04.440
<v Speaker 2>and you know in Emerson and young, but they've got yeah,

673
00:38:04.480 --> 00:38:08.760
<v Speaker 2>the core core of their team is all. They're pretty

674
00:38:09.559 --> 00:38:11.920
<v Speaker 2>We're closing in on them pretty quick, and that doesn't

675
00:38:11.920 --> 00:38:18.119
<v Speaker 2>include Rodriguez. So their window is, Yeah, two years from now,

676
00:38:19.639 --> 00:38:21.920
<v Speaker 2>we'll be saying the same thing we said about Laddie

677
00:38:21.960 --> 00:38:24.639
<v Speaker 2>two years ago. What are the J's gonna do? You know,

678
00:38:24.679 --> 00:38:27.400
<v Speaker 2>are they gonna sign them yet? Yeah? Yeah, it's it

679
00:38:27.440 --> 00:38:30.719
<v Speaker 2>will come to a head where if they don't make

680
00:38:30.760 --> 00:38:33.880
<v Speaker 2>the right deals and mariners, they could be in trouble

681
00:38:33.880 --> 00:38:36.400
<v Speaker 2>a couple of years. Oh you know, even they're pitching

682
00:38:36.880 --> 00:38:43.360
<v Speaker 2>like Logan Gilbert Okay, yeah, he's twenty nine going on thirty. Okay, Brian,

683
00:38:43.679 --> 00:38:47.480
<v Speaker 2>Brian who twenty seven? But Miller is twenty eight. Kirby

684
00:38:47.599 --> 00:38:50.199
<v Speaker 2>is gonna be He's in his twenty ninth year now.

685
00:38:51.480 --> 00:38:54.199
<v Speaker 2>So they've only got a couple of years and things

686
00:38:54.239 --> 00:38:57.880
<v Speaker 2>will change very very quickly if they don't do something

687
00:38:57.880 --> 00:38:58.280
<v Speaker 2>about it.

688
00:38:59.199 --> 00:39:02.360
<v Speaker 1>They have to. It was the same, It's the same

689
00:39:02.440 --> 00:39:07.239
<v Speaker 1>exact logic and thought process of why the Tigers had

690
00:39:07.320 --> 00:39:10.920
<v Speaker 1>to trade Trek Scoubel. You have to do it. I mean,

691
00:39:11.039 --> 00:39:13.559
<v Speaker 1>there's and if you're going to make a run and

692
00:39:13.599 --> 00:39:16.559
<v Speaker 1>it's all sitting there there, they can catch the tie,

693
00:39:16.679 --> 00:39:19.519
<v Speaker 1>they can catch the Rangers, but they're not going to

694
00:39:19.599 --> 00:39:21.800
<v Speaker 1>do it with the offense they they have. I mean,

695
00:39:22.440 --> 00:39:24.400
<v Speaker 1>isn't Kyle Riley still out?

696
00:39:25.960 --> 00:39:28.039
<v Speaker 2>I think he's back.

697
00:39:28.199 --> 00:39:29.519
<v Speaker 1>He's not doing much then.

698
00:39:30.320 --> 00:39:32.079
<v Speaker 2>No, he's in the dumper right now.

699
00:39:32.719 --> 00:39:36.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they need some help. There's a lot of other trades.

700
00:39:36.599 --> 00:39:38.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm just going to focus on one because you put

701
00:39:38.559 --> 00:39:40.880
<v Speaker 1>him in your waiver wire. And this was a kind

702
00:39:40.880 --> 00:39:45.079
<v Speaker 1>of a kind of interesting trade. The Pirates acquired Carmela

703
00:39:45.159 --> 00:39:47.800
<v Speaker 1>de Val from the from the Yankees exchange for a

704
00:39:47.800 --> 00:39:50.719
<v Speaker 1>couple of a double a catcher and Omar Alfonso, an

705
00:39:50.719 --> 00:39:53.400
<v Speaker 1>eighteen year old outfit or Lewis Cruz who I kind

706
00:39:53.400 --> 00:39:56.559
<v Speaker 1>of like Lewis Cruz there. But why is Novelle on

707
00:39:56.599 --> 00:40:02.800
<v Speaker 1>your waiver wire? Oh he's been terrible?

708
00:40:02.840 --> 00:40:06.079
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah he has. Did you read what I wrote

709
00:40:06.119 --> 00:40:06.519
<v Speaker 2>about him?

710
00:40:06.519 --> 00:40:09.199
<v Speaker 1>And the weaver were timmy? I I did not get

711
00:40:09.199 --> 00:40:11.199
<v Speaker 1>a chance. Let me read it now, let me see.

712
00:40:11.360 --> 00:40:13.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you might want to give it to read.

713
00:40:13.440 --> 00:40:15.639
<v Speaker 1>The Pirates are all into the deadline and the best

714
00:40:15.679 --> 00:40:17.559
<v Speaker 1>they can do was the fourth best reliever of the

715
00:40:17.639 --> 00:40:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Yankees bullpen. Not ideal, but Duval has a hundred saved

716
00:40:21.000 --> 00:40:22.679
<v Speaker 1>one hundred and nine games in his career, thirty six

717
00:40:22.760 --> 00:40:26.480
<v Speaker 1>more than Greg Risotto and Mason Montgomery combined. That experience

718
00:40:26.519 --> 00:40:31.039
<v Speaker 1>matter so interesting. Look, I would developed.

719
00:40:30.800 --> 00:40:36.599
<v Speaker 2>My original My original assessment didn't didn't include that experience. Matters. Basically,

720
00:40:36.639 --> 00:40:39.960
<v Speaker 2>what I was saying is Pittsburgh's all in and that's

721
00:40:39.960 --> 00:40:43.920
<v Speaker 2>the best he could do, and that's not good enough.

722
00:40:44.239 --> 00:40:48.719
<v Speaker 2>He's going to get some saves in all probability, and

723
00:40:48.800 --> 00:40:50.920
<v Speaker 2>that's why I have him in there. But am I

724
00:40:51.320 --> 00:40:54.480
<v Speaker 2>chasing community developed No, not at all.

725
00:40:56.440 --> 00:40:58.480
<v Speaker 1>I used a chance to be better Tim. He was

726
00:40:58.519 --> 00:41:03.360
<v Speaker 1>pretty good when he was with San Francis Go and yeah, yeah,

727
00:41:03.599 --> 00:41:05.559
<v Speaker 1>I mean, we'll see. I mean I I think the

728
00:41:05.639 --> 00:41:07.360
<v Speaker 1>Yankees got rid him because they were just tired of

729
00:41:07.400 --> 00:41:09.679
<v Speaker 1>him and he was no good and they saved a

730
00:41:09.719 --> 00:41:12.920
<v Speaker 1>little bit of money in the process. And Pittsburgh.

731
00:41:14.039 --> 00:41:15.760
<v Speaker 2>He was a fourth bullpen arm.

732
00:41:16.039 --> 00:41:19.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, why not move him and just say, hey,

733
00:41:19.880 --> 00:41:22.639
<v Speaker 1>we've got we can bring up somebody from Triple A

734
00:41:22.800 --> 00:41:24.679
<v Speaker 1>those one hundred miles an hour and probably be at

735
00:41:24.719 --> 00:41:28.199
<v Speaker 1>the same spot as to Vow, I'm just wondering if

736
00:41:28.239 --> 00:41:31.920
<v Speaker 1>getting out of New York and uh, And again, the

737
00:41:31.960 --> 00:41:35.639
<v Speaker 1>Pirates are really good at developing pictures. Maybe they see something. Again,

738
00:41:35.639 --> 00:41:37.880
<v Speaker 1>there's I'm sure there's a coach in a corner somewhere

739
00:41:38.079 --> 00:41:40.280
<v Speaker 1>going I can get I can get that slider back

740
00:41:40.320 --> 00:41:43.199
<v Speaker 1>to being uh, because again that was his calling car.

741
00:41:43.280 --> 00:41:46.119
<v Speaker 1>But it's you know, and it's still generating fifty percent

742
00:41:46.119 --> 00:41:50.639
<v Speaker 1>with rate. But the Yankees decided to rely on his sinker,

743
00:41:51.119 --> 00:41:54.159
<v Speaker 1>and the sinker was effective, but he wasn't the same

744
00:41:54.199 --> 00:41:56.400
<v Speaker 1>pictures and maybe they go back to the pitch MIxS

745
00:41:56.760 --> 00:41:58.719
<v Speaker 1>he used in San Francisco, So there could be some

746
00:41:58.800 --> 00:42:01.880
<v Speaker 1>tweaks along the way. That's why I thought when you

747
00:42:01.920 --> 00:42:04.920
<v Speaker 1>put him as you're as a guy to grab, I

748
00:42:04.960 --> 00:42:06.920
<v Speaker 1>thought there was some I thought there was that was

749
00:42:06.960 --> 00:42:07.840
<v Speaker 1>actually pretty good.

750
00:42:09.159 --> 00:42:12.000
<v Speaker 2>I think he's I think he could be the best

751
00:42:13.039 --> 00:42:16.119
<v Speaker 2>of the three guys there, but I'm not paying for

752
00:42:16.199 --> 00:42:18.920
<v Speaker 2>him and taking that chance now. With what I've seen

753
00:42:18.960 --> 00:42:20.960
<v Speaker 2>over the past several years, his saves have been in

754
00:42:21.079 --> 00:42:24.039
<v Speaker 2>steady free fall for the past three years, as e

755
00:42:24.199 --> 00:42:27.679
<v Speaker 2>or as up there. What annoyed me the most about

756
00:42:27.760 --> 00:42:31.400
<v Speaker 2>this is the pirates all in at the deadline and

757
00:42:31.440 --> 00:42:33.920
<v Speaker 2>that's the best they could do. We're both been upgrade, Like,

758
00:42:34.000 --> 00:42:36.800
<v Speaker 2>come on, really, let's think.

759
00:42:36.800 --> 00:42:41.440
<v Speaker 1>It's still twenty eight hours something like that. Let's let's

760
00:42:41.559 --> 00:42:43.880
<v Speaker 1>let's give him. Let's givehim twenty eight hours so and

761
00:42:43.920 --> 00:42:46.840
<v Speaker 1>then we can then we can bust on them.

762
00:42:47.000 --> 00:42:50.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh I just busted right out of the gate. Sorry,

763
00:42:51.199 --> 00:42:53.719
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. It just disappointed me, you know, Like

764
00:42:53.760 --> 00:42:56.320
<v Speaker 2>I said, with the arms that are available, I think

765
00:42:56.519 --> 00:42:58.800
<v Speaker 2>the pirates could have done much better. I think what

766
00:42:58.880 --> 00:43:01.400
<v Speaker 2>they have now is a committee of three instead of

767
00:43:01.440 --> 00:43:04.360
<v Speaker 2>a committee of two. But hey, I could be wrong

768
00:43:04.400 --> 00:43:07.199
<v Speaker 2>and Devell could take the world by storm and anchor

769
00:43:07.280 --> 00:43:10.519
<v Speaker 2>that bullpen like he did three four years ago. I

770
00:43:10.639 --> 00:43:14.079
<v Speaker 2>just I just found it disappointing.

771
00:43:16.000 --> 00:43:18.079
<v Speaker 1>Let's let's talk Freddy peralta real quick.

772
00:43:18.840 --> 00:43:19.800
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I'm just going to give you.

773
00:43:19.840 --> 00:43:21.480
<v Speaker 1>My thoughts there. I will write it up for our

774
00:43:21.519 --> 00:43:24.519
<v Speaker 1>Patreon members. Seeing a guy with an ERA of four

775
00:43:24.599 --> 00:43:27.639
<v Speaker 1>ninety nine not good, expected earray of three eighty two

776
00:43:28.119 --> 00:43:32.320
<v Speaker 1>much better. And that's pretty much where expected ERA last

777
00:43:32.400 --> 00:43:35.639
<v Speaker 1>year was three forty three, three thirty five. So that's

778
00:43:35.639 --> 00:43:37.760
<v Speaker 1>the kind of picture he's been and the data is

779
00:43:37.800 --> 00:43:39.679
<v Speaker 1>saying that he has a chance to be back of that.

780
00:43:39.760 --> 00:43:43.119
<v Speaker 1>He's never been a control artist, and the controls pretty

781
00:43:43.159 --> 00:43:46.599
<v Speaker 1>much are in line with what they've been. I'm looking

782
00:43:46.639 --> 00:43:49.039
<v Speaker 1>at the data, Timmy, and it's showing that he has

783
00:43:49.280 --> 00:43:53.360
<v Speaker 1>really come off throwing his sinker and it looks like

784
00:43:53.519 --> 00:43:58.079
<v Speaker 1>the the Mets wanted him to throw his four seamer

785
00:43:58.199 --> 00:44:01.440
<v Speaker 1>more so again as and it looks like, see what

786
00:44:01.440 --> 00:44:05.000
<v Speaker 1>else is Yeah, his forcing more than he is a sinker.

787
00:44:05.320 --> 00:44:07.400
<v Speaker 1>So I'm wondering if they get him back to throwing

788
00:44:07.440 --> 00:44:09.599
<v Speaker 1>a sinker, and maybe that makes a difference. But there

789
00:44:09.679 --> 00:44:13.039
<v Speaker 1>is something that has changed that calls you know, something

790
00:44:13.039 --> 00:44:17.920
<v Speaker 1>that's that's been different. And everything's getting hit hard, particularly

791
00:44:18.000 --> 00:44:20.360
<v Speaker 1>his curveball, which has never been the case. This stuff

792
00:44:20.480 --> 00:44:23.320
<v Speaker 1>was always played very well. So his location's not there.

793
00:44:23.880 --> 00:44:25.280
<v Speaker 1>I think it's set up for him to have a

794
00:44:25.320 --> 00:44:27.119
<v Speaker 1>bounce back, and I think it's.

795
00:44:27.480 --> 00:44:33.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I agree. I think psychologically getting out of New York,

796
00:44:33.880 --> 00:44:40.079
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure somewhere wherever he is right now, he's going, ah, finally,

797
00:44:40.239 --> 00:44:43.440
<v Speaker 2>you know what I mean. I I I just think

798
00:44:44.360 --> 00:44:47.719
<v Speaker 2>from a mental aspect, leaving, leaving the Mets and going

799
00:44:47.760 --> 00:44:49.599
<v Speaker 2>to a team in this first place in the division,

800
00:44:49.679 --> 00:44:52.599
<v Speaker 2>I think that's going to be a positive. Without any

801
00:44:52.639 --> 00:44:55.840
<v Speaker 2>of the mechanical you know, without any of the mechanics

802
00:44:55.880 --> 00:44:58.159
<v Speaker 2>and everything else that goes into being a good pitcher.

803
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:02.639
<v Speaker 2>I think I think we'll see improvement just with him

804
00:45:02.719 --> 00:45:03.559
<v Speaker 2>escaping New York.

805
00:45:06.400 --> 00:45:06.800
<v Speaker 1>I think so.

806
00:45:07.039 --> 00:45:08.159
<v Speaker 2>I could be wrong, but.

807
00:45:08.239 --> 00:45:09.960
<v Speaker 1>I think so They've got to get him off throwing

808
00:45:09.960 --> 00:45:12.199
<v Speaker 1>that four stinger man, it's the four singers. Gave up

809
00:45:12.199 --> 00:45:14.639
<v Speaker 1>sixteen her runs last year, seven her runs this season.

810
00:45:14.719 --> 00:45:17.039
<v Speaker 1>It's just not a very good pitch, and they got

811
00:45:17.039 --> 00:45:18.679
<v Speaker 1>to get him throwing that. They're going to get him

812
00:45:18.679 --> 00:45:21.519
<v Speaker 1>throwing that syncher more. That would be something that he

813
00:45:21.599 --> 00:45:23.599
<v Speaker 1>might want you to consider.

814
00:45:24.800 --> 00:45:27.039
<v Speaker 2>And I'm sure they will. I'm sure they will.

815
00:45:27.239 --> 00:45:31.159
<v Speaker 1>I mean, they're they're good at this, so yeah, exactly,

816
00:45:31.800 --> 00:45:33.320
<v Speaker 1>and you know they're going to get him to throw

817
00:45:33.320 --> 00:45:35.320
<v Speaker 1>more strikes. So that's just that's just what they do.

818
00:45:35.800 --> 00:45:38.039
<v Speaker 1>Is that going to be next start? Probably not, but

819
00:45:39.159 --> 00:45:42.800
<v Speaker 1>I think look, his his agent's going Freddy, You've got

820
00:45:43.000 --> 00:45:45.400
<v Speaker 1>everything set up for you. If you have a great

821
00:45:45.840 --> 00:45:48.880
<v Speaker 1>last two months, no one's going to remember the first

822
00:45:48.960 --> 00:45:50.920
<v Speaker 1>four months. You're going to be able to go out

823
00:45:50.920 --> 00:45:54.199
<v Speaker 1>and command a huge salary. So it's all there for

824
00:45:54.320 --> 00:45:56.480
<v Speaker 1>him and if he if he flops it, he flubs it,

825
00:45:56.559 --> 00:45:58.320
<v Speaker 1>but it's all sitting there for him to be able

826
00:45:58.360 --> 00:46:00.400
<v Speaker 1>to take advantage of it.

827
00:46:00.400 --> 00:46:03.599
<v Speaker 2>It's a much better opportunity in Tampa Bay over the

828
00:46:03.599 --> 00:46:05.679
<v Speaker 2>two months final two months of the season than it

829
00:46:05.719 --> 00:46:09.239
<v Speaker 2>would be in New York with the Mets.

830
00:46:10.119 --> 00:46:12.559
<v Speaker 1>Timmy, let's take a break and come back and check

831
00:46:12.639 --> 00:46:14.639
<v Speaker 1>some of the scores and see what's going on, and

832
00:46:14.639 --> 00:46:28.320
<v Speaker 1>then we'll do your waiver wire. Let's see, I was

833
00:46:28.360 --> 00:46:32.400
<v Speaker 1>watching a real game youre talking, and they've hit a

834
00:46:32.559 --> 00:46:37.719
<v Speaker 1>rain delay. So the Saint Louis Cardinals are up one

835
00:46:37.760 --> 00:46:41.199
<v Speaker 1>to nothing. Would you think of Quinn Matthews start yesterday?

836
00:46:42.480 --> 00:46:47.039
<v Speaker 2>It was solid? Yeah, I was fine with it. Yeah,

837
00:46:47.079 --> 00:46:51.400
<v Speaker 2>I liked. I like what I saw. The big thing

838
00:46:51.480 --> 00:46:56.519
<v Speaker 2>there will be whether or not Dustin May is a

839
00:46:56.559 --> 00:47:01.239
<v Speaker 2>Cardinal come Monday after four balk or six o'club, whatever

840
00:47:01.280 --> 00:47:03.920
<v Speaker 2>the time is. Yeah, there's an opportunity for him to

841
00:47:03.960 --> 00:47:06.599
<v Speaker 2>fit into that rotation. I believe his next game would

842
00:47:06.639 --> 00:47:09.320
<v Speaker 2>be against the Rockies. I'm not sure if home we're away,

843
00:47:09.960 --> 00:47:14.760
<v Speaker 2>but uh, I was. I was impressed. It was okay. Yeah,

844
00:47:14.800 --> 00:47:17.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean it wasn't if you know, it wasn't like

845
00:47:17.920 --> 00:47:19.760
<v Speaker 2>he was setting the world run. But it was steady

846
00:47:20.280 --> 00:47:25.840
<v Speaker 2>and good for him. I think should there be an

847
00:47:25.840 --> 00:47:29.559
<v Speaker 2>opening and then the Cards haven't said anything yet, but

848
00:47:29.639 --> 00:47:32.039
<v Speaker 2>I think they're waiting to see what happens in deadline.

849
00:47:32.320 --> 00:47:34.559
<v Speaker 2>I think he'll be in the rotation balance of the season.

850
00:47:34.840 --> 00:47:36.760
<v Speaker 2>I'd be I'd be looking at going out and getting

851
00:47:36.840 --> 00:47:38.280
<v Speaker 2>him tonight that's what I'd be doing.

852
00:47:38.719 --> 00:47:40.679
<v Speaker 1>Max Shuars are with a good start five and it's

853
00:47:40.679 --> 00:47:43.320
<v Speaker 1>pitch three hits and run five strikeouts of one walk.

854
00:47:43.880 --> 00:47:46.559
<v Speaker 1>Is that enough for him to a team to go Yeah,

855
00:47:46.559 --> 00:47:48.320
<v Speaker 1>we'll take a flyer on, mister sheers Er.

856
00:47:49.519 --> 00:47:55.559
<v Speaker 2>Well, see, I I look at the standings, okay, and

857
00:47:56.880 --> 00:48:00.679
<v Speaker 2>the Jays are what three four games out of a Wildcards?

858
00:48:00.960 --> 00:48:03.000
<v Speaker 2>But they've been playing much better.

859
00:48:05.280 --> 00:48:08.719
<v Speaker 1>Wait I told us uninspired baseball two days ago.

860
00:48:08.920 --> 00:48:15.719
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yeah, no, it was a week ago that I

861
00:48:15.800 --> 00:48:18.400
<v Speaker 2>looked at the schedule and they got thirty five of

862
00:48:18.440 --> 00:48:21.039
<v Speaker 2>their final games are against teams that they've got to

863
00:48:21.119 --> 00:48:24.400
<v Speaker 2>chase down to get into the wild Cards. What if

864
00:48:24.440 --> 00:48:29.360
<v Speaker 2>the Jays just help and and found a way to

865
00:48:29.360 --> 00:48:31.679
<v Speaker 2>make it into the With what's going on right now,

866
00:48:31.840 --> 00:48:37.880
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna pass Detroit no probability, So maybe the Jays

867
00:48:39.079 --> 00:48:41.239
<v Speaker 2>they might not be buyers, but maybe they'll just hold

868
00:48:41.239 --> 00:48:44.159
<v Speaker 2>pat and see if they can chase everybody down over

869
00:48:44.159 --> 00:48:46.599
<v Speaker 2>the last two months. And they can't be totally ruled out.

870
00:48:46.840 --> 00:48:49.679
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, I don't know if they're gonna I don't

871
00:48:49.679 --> 00:48:53.679
<v Speaker 2>know if they're gonna move Max or Springer or Ghostlan.

872
00:48:53.760 --> 00:48:56.920
<v Speaker 2>They might just hold on to that team and try

873
00:48:56.920 --> 00:48:59.679
<v Speaker 2>and make up ground and maybe they can, maybe they can't.

874
00:49:00.519 --> 00:49:02.480
<v Speaker 2>Are they going to get that much for what they

875
00:49:02.519 --> 00:49:05.639
<v Speaker 2>have to put out there? I don't think so. So

876
00:49:07.320 --> 00:49:12.280
<v Speaker 2>that'd be interesting. You see how it shakes down Jay's

877
00:49:12.320 --> 00:49:13.880
<v Speaker 2>old pat That's interesting.

878
00:49:13.920 --> 00:49:16.679
<v Speaker 1>Well, yeah, that's I mean, it's a good thought process

879
00:49:16.679 --> 00:49:20.000
<v Speaker 1>of when I had not considered I'm looking at the

880
00:49:20.000 --> 00:49:24.280
<v Speaker 1>the uh uh uh, the Guardians up to nothing on

881
00:49:24.400 --> 00:49:28.079
<v Speaker 1>the Diamondbacks, Patrick Bailey with the home run. One of

882
00:49:28.079 --> 00:49:31.480
<v Speaker 1>the deals they did we didn't talk about was Blake, uh,

883
00:49:31.559 --> 00:49:37.960
<v Speaker 1>Blake Perkins going to the Guardians, And I thought, out loud,

884
00:49:38.440 --> 00:49:41.480
<v Speaker 1>does this mean maybe Stephen Kwan is on his way

885
00:49:41.639 --> 00:49:46.440
<v Speaker 1>out of Cleveland because Blake's Blake Blake Perkins is kind

886
00:49:46.480 --> 00:49:49.079
<v Speaker 1>of a Steven a poor man. Stephen kwant on bass

887
00:49:49.119 --> 00:49:53.199
<v Speaker 1>guy really can defender no power, a little bit of speed.

888
00:49:54.000 --> 00:49:56.599
<v Speaker 1>It's like Stephen Kuan, and Stephen Kuan has been like

889
00:49:56.840 --> 00:49:59.400
<v Speaker 1>red hot over the last few weeks.

890
00:50:00.199 --> 00:50:02.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. When I read the trade, the first thing that

891
00:50:03.320 --> 00:50:07.280
<v Speaker 2>caught my mind is Milwaukee only had to give up

892
00:50:07.280 --> 00:50:09.119
<v Speaker 2>a case of Yoho to get Bowe Naylor.

893
00:50:09.480 --> 00:50:16.039
<v Speaker 1>I know, I know, I tried to create jokes on

894
00:50:16.360 --> 00:50:19.360
<v Speaker 1>you who and all that kind of stuff. Yeah, I've

895
00:50:19.400 --> 00:50:21.239
<v Speaker 1>been writing too much over the last few days, but

896
00:50:21.320 --> 00:50:26.880
<v Speaker 1>I got the joke. Yeah, so I thought the acquisition

897
00:50:26.920 --> 00:50:29.840
<v Speaker 1>of bon Naylor is actually interesting. I mean it's because

898
00:50:29.920 --> 00:50:32.880
<v Speaker 1>what I wrote to our Patreon members. I mean, remember

899
00:50:33.320 --> 00:50:37.159
<v Speaker 1>the Milwaukee Brewers move guys the year before they're ready

900
00:50:37.199 --> 00:50:40.840
<v Speaker 1>for free agents free agency, and that's William Contrera's next season.

901
00:50:40.880 --> 00:50:42.679
<v Speaker 1>He'll be a free agent at the end of the

902
00:50:42.719 --> 00:50:48.079
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty seventh season. Don't be surprised if William Contrere's

903
00:50:48.119 --> 00:50:50.639
<v Speaker 1>gets moved in the off season and they go with

904
00:50:50.719 --> 00:50:53.079
<v Speaker 1>Jefferson Quarra and they're gonna be looking for some backups.

905
00:50:53.119 --> 00:50:55.639
<v Speaker 1>And I think it was a nice little move. Let's

906
00:50:55.639 --> 00:50:57.760
<v Speaker 1>see what Let's see if Boon Naylor can help.

907
00:50:58.800 --> 00:51:02.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and Gary saying, you know that's.

908
00:51:02.239 --> 00:51:04.239
<v Speaker 1>He's forty years old. He's the old guy.

909
00:51:05.159 --> 00:51:08.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, yeah, Gary pass Baal Sanchez.

910
00:51:08.360 --> 00:51:12.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah right, let's see what else we got going on here?

911
00:51:12.400 --> 00:51:15.079
<v Speaker 1>The oh, the here's a score seven to one. The

912
00:51:15.159 --> 00:51:17.679
<v Speaker 1>Reds are up. Its Sea's doing damage for the Reds.

913
00:51:18.519 --> 00:51:22.280
<v Speaker 1>Your buddy, uh oh, Spencer Stewart with another home run

914
00:51:22.360 --> 00:51:23.480
<v Speaker 1>up to twenty four.

915
00:51:25.159 --> 00:51:26.079
<v Speaker 2>Amazing season.

916
00:51:27.400 --> 00:51:30.880
<v Speaker 1>Now, look at that Hayes with a home run. Keep

917
00:51:30.920 --> 00:51:32.920
<v Speaker 1>Brian Hayes hit he wan.

918
00:51:33.000 --> 00:51:37.519
<v Speaker 2>Yes, and you got Mitch Keller he went all of

919
00:51:37.599 --> 00:51:41.119
<v Speaker 2>two innings along seven ened runs. Chase Burns a one hitter,

920
00:51:41.280 --> 00:51:42.800
<v Speaker 2>three straight coats. Yeah.

921
00:51:43.440 --> 00:51:46.559
<v Speaker 1>So when do we start to get worried about about

922
00:51:46.599 --> 00:51:51.000
<v Speaker 1>Paul Skeins Uh?

923
00:51:51.719 --> 00:51:54.079
<v Speaker 2>I have him nowhere, so I'm not worried at all.

924
00:51:54.159 --> 00:51:57.800
<v Speaker 1>But it's here. An up is just below four.

925
00:51:59.440 --> 00:52:06.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. On an interesting graph. Okay, looking at basically by

926
00:52:06.519 --> 00:52:12.039
<v Speaker 2>start and looking at velocity, and his velocity has come

927
00:52:12.280 --> 00:52:18.239
<v Speaker 2>down steadily since that first month that he showed up. Mmm.

928
00:52:19.400 --> 00:52:21.719
<v Speaker 2>I think it was first inning velocity or something. It

929
00:52:21.760 --> 00:52:27.559
<v Speaker 2>has come down on a fairly gradual basis. I I

930
00:52:27.559 --> 00:52:31.639
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure what to think there. I you get

931
00:52:31.639 --> 00:52:35.119
<v Speaker 2>the you got the memories of how things were up

932
00:52:35.199 --> 00:52:39.800
<v Speaker 2>until this year. But the reality of this year is

933
00:52:39.840 --> 00:52:46.119
<v Speaker 2>he hasn't pitched well and the velocity is down. I'm

934
00:52:46.119 --> 00:52:48.239
<v Speaker 2>gonna have to look at that very closely in the

935
00:52:48.280 --> 00:52:50.840
<v Speaker 2>off season. I'm not ready to formulate an opinion now,

936
00:52:50.880 --> 00:52:54.440
<v Speaker 2>but there are warning there are warning signs that maybe

937
00:52:54.599 --> 00:52:57.519
<v Speaker 2>maybe there are some issues, serious ones.

938
00:52:57.960 --> 00:52:59.760
<v Speaker 1>The first picture off the board is.

939
00:53:02.280 --> 00:53:04.239
<v Speaker 2>For me, Yeah, I'm a moto.

940
00:53:05.039 --> 00:53:06.599
<v Speaker 1>For me, it's Jacob Miserowski.

941
00:53:07.920 --> 00:53:11.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. See my my concern with Miserowski is.

942
00:53:12.880 --> 00:53:16.000
<v Speaker 1>Throwing Ye for sure, his arm's gonna fall off. Yeah,

943
00:53:16.000 --> 00:53:16.360
<v Speaker 1>I get that.

944
00:53:16.440 --> 00:53:20.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, E is a game at one hundred and

945
00:53:20.679 --> 00:53:23.760
<v Speaker 2>three miles an hour. Okay, no, no, no, no, I

946
00:53:23.840 --> 00:53:27.760
<v Speaker 2>don't you know. No, I will not have Miserowski.

947
00:53:28.960 --> 00:53:31.159
<v Speaker 1>Totally get it, I totally get it. But he is

948
00:53:31.320 --> 00:53:33.760
<v Speaker 1>the best pitcher in baseball right now. I mean that

949
00:53:33.760 --> 00:53:38.199
<v Speaker 1>that guy is. He's doing stuff that's never We always

950
00:53:38.199 --> 00:53:42.320
<v Speaker 1>talk about how Tony Misowski is doing stuff that people

951
00:53:42.360 --> 00:53:46.239
<v Speaker 1>didn't think was possible. Guy throwing that hard, I mean

952
00:53:46.280 --> 00:53:46.920
<v Speaker 1>it's crazy.

953
00:53:46.880 --> 00:53:50.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. The guy that I want over Miski is Chase Burns.

954
00:53:51.360 --> 00:53:55.360
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Chase Burns very good. He's uh, he's actually winning

955
00:53:55.400 --> 00:53:57.199
<v Speaker 1>the game at the moment. He has been really good.

956
00:53:57.840 --> 00:54:01.159
<v Speaker 1>Is Garrett Cole another? Can I start too? Is out

957
00:54:01.159 --> 00:54:04.519
<v Speaker 1>in three forty seven year a starting to look more

958
00:54:04.559 --> 00:54:06.639
<v Speaker 1>and more like the Garrett Cole of old.

959
00:54:07.519 --> 00:54:11.599
<v Speaker 2>Yes he is, and you're not paying a premium for

960
00:54:11.679 --> 00:54:12.320
<v Speaker 2>him next year?

961
00:54:12.840 --> 00:54:13.440
<v Speaker 1>You don't think so?

962
00:54:14.400 --> 00:54:17.239
<v Speaker 2>No, I don't think so. I think you'll be drafted

963
00:54:17.239 --> 00:54:18.000
<v Speaker 2>as number two.

964
00:54:20.639 --> 00:54:25.360
<v Speaker 1>Who was stock that's pitching for the Mets. Who is

965
00:54:25.639 --> 00:54:33.039
<v Speaker 1>Stock thirty six year okay, sack or something.

966
00:54:33.400 --> 00:54:39.280
<v Speaker 2>Rubber Stack? Yeah, I don't know. I his nickname is Crunch.

967
00:54:41.199 --> 00:54:44.039
<v Speaker 1>As supposed to Crutch. Okay, well.

968
00:54:45.840 --> 00:54:49.760
<v Speaker 2>Well yeah no, yeah, five inning, three hit ball for

969
00:54:49.840 --> 00:54:57.280
<v Speaker 2>a stray Coats. I you got. Yeah. I am going

970
00:54:57.320 --> 00:55:00.360
<v Speaker 2>to take a very quick look to see how many

971
00:55:00.360 --> 00:55:04.800
<v Speaker 2>teams Robert Stock has the name the day rings the

972
00:55:04.840 --> 00:55:07.800
<v Speaker 2>ball of the bell. He's making his first start since

973
00:55:07.880 --> 00:55:12.159
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty one, exactly he was, Yeah, he was out

974
00:55:12.199 --> 00:55:16.320
<v Speaker 2>of the Padres system. Pitch really well in twenty eighteen.

975
00:55:17.800 --> 00:55:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, I think either one of my kids were

976
00:55:21.039 --> 00:55:24.719
<v Speaker 1>married in twenty eighteen. A lot that's happening since twenty eighteen.

977
00:55:24.880 --> 00:55:28.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, since twenty twenty one. He pitched two and two

978
00:55:28.280 --> 00:55:34.119
<v Speaker 2>thirds innings and for Boston in twenty twenty five. That's it.

979
00:55:34.239 --> 00:55:37.519
<v Speaker 1>So my questions still stand. Who was Robert Stock? So?

980
00:55:37.639 --> 00:55:41.800
<v Speaker 2>Wow? I have no idea. I have no idea idea whatsoever.

981
00:55:42.360 --> 00:55:49.840
<v Speaker 2>But he's stage incrib'll come back from TuS syndrome nerve

982
00:55:49.920 --> 00:55:53.840
<v Speaker 2>condition back in March, pitching for Team Israel. What year

983
00:55:53.920 --> 00:55:59.159
<v Speaker 2>is this is? Twenty twenty six? I have no idea yeah.

984
00:55:58.920 --> 00:56:03.480
<v Speaker 1>That's crazy. These rando rando starts, and I know he'll

985
00:56:03.480 --> 00:56:05.400
<v Speaker 1>be picked up all over the way for where nobody

986
00:56:05.400 --> 00:56:06.079
<v Speaker 1>knows who he is.

987
00:56:07.239 --> 00:56:14.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, exactly, let's go, yeah exactly eighty four point five.

988
00:56:16.960 --> 00:56:19.880
<v Speaker 2>I have no idea. I have no idea what his

989
00:56:20.000 --> 00:56:20.599
<v Speaker 2>view is.

990
00:56:22.039 --> 00:56:24.719
<v Speaker 1>Let's see. I'm sure he's a Tim McLoud special, So

991
00:56:24.760 --> 00:56:27.440
<v Speaker 1>he has to be a soft tosster because Tim like

992
00:56:27.480 --> 00:56:29.440
<v Speaker 1>sas soft tosters tof tossers.

993
00:56:29.440 --> 00:56:33.360
<v Speaker 2>Okay, but he's alrighty, I have wim like soft left.

994
00:56:33.800 --> 00:56:38.480
<v Speaker 1>Okay, let's see Santi al Contra, Robert Stock, Oh, mister

995
00:56:38.559 --> 00:56:43.519
<v Speaker 1>McLeod's see for sam Or ninety six point three touching

996
00:56:43.599 --> 00:56:50.719
<v Speaker 1>ninety eight? Is uh the sinker sweeper? Change up?

997
00:56:51.840 --> 00:56:52.239
<v Speaker 2>It doesn't.

998
00:56:52.280 --> 00:56:54.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Only he throws hard for one, So

999
00:56:55.519 --> 00:56:59.440
<v Speaker 1>I've never seen a pitch. Well, it's very it hasn't

1000
00:56:59.440 --> 00:57:00.000
<v Speaker 1>caught my eye.

1001
00:57:01.039 --> 00:57:03.559
<v Speaker 2>It's very rare that you get a thirty six year

1002
00:57:03.559 --> 00:57:07.360
<v Speaker 2>old picture that's still minors eligible in dynasty leagues, and

1003
00:57:07.440 --> 00:57:07.840
<v Speaker 2>he is.

1004
00:57:12.920 --> 00:57:18.360
<v Speaker 1>He's almost thirty seven. Yeah yeah, yeah, Wow, that's amazing.

1005
00:57:18.719 --> 00:57:21.719
<v Speaker 1>What's that? Wow? That is crazy. I mean, let's move,

1006
00:57:21.840 --> 00:57:24.679
<v Speaker 1>let's move to your waiver wire. Uh. First, of all.

1007
00:57:24.719 --> 00:57:27.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, your little note to me was the teams

1008
00:57:27.039 --> 00:57:30.599
<v Speaker 1>didn't cooperate, therefore you didn't have a lot of it

1009
00:57:30.679 --> 00:57:33.119
<v Speaker 1>took that to meeting and have a lot of obvious names,

1010
00:57:33.199 --> 00:57:34.960
<v Speaker 1>so you had to dig a little bit of Is

1011
00:57:34.960 --> 00:57:36.280
<v Speaker 1>that how I should understand it?

1012
00:57:37.599 --> 00:57:40.920
<v Speaker 2>Well, some of them were straightforward and obvious and some

1013
00:57:40.960 --> 00:57:43.119
<v Speaker 2>of them, Yeah, I had to do some dig and

1014
00:57:43.159 --> 00:57:45.880
<v Speaker 2>I had to do some research. I was hoping we'd

1015
00:57:45.880 --> 00:57:52.800
<v Speaker 2>see some some moves that might fold into waiver wire activity. Uh.

1016
00:57:53.559 --> 00:57:57.360
<v Speaker 2>I think we have more moves generated by potential call

1017
00:57:57.440 --> 00:57:59.920
<v Speaker 2>ups and the call up of Max Clark than we

1018
00:58:00.079 --> 00:58:01.880
<v Speaker 2>have as a result of the trade situation.

1019
00:58:02.519 --> 00:58:05.559
<v Speaker 1>M Thus far, I think we're just getting started. I

1020
00:58:05.559 --> 00:58:07.639
<v Speaker 1>agree with you, and it's it's a bumber that the

1021
00:58:07.679 --> 00:58:10.199
<v Speaker 1>trade deadline is on Monday, because I think you're gonna

1022
00:58:10.239 --> 00:58:13.480
<v Speaker 1>see that's where you gonna see opportunities, particularly in the

1023
00:58:13.480 --> 00:58:16.039
<v Speaker 1>closer side. They're gonna all they're all gonna pop up

1024
00:58:16.400 --> 00:58:17.760
<v Speaker 1>late tonight and tomorrow.

1025
00:58:18.719 --> 00:58:20.880
<v Speaker 2>Well, let's face it, the Mets are moving everybody, and

1026
00:58:21.000 --> 00:58:25.320
<v Speaker 2>up until an hour ago, they hadn't moved anybody. Yeah, yeah,

1027
00:58:25.880 --> 00:58:28.000
<v Speaker 2>they're that whole bullpen is going to get gutted. Or

1028
00:58:28.000 --> 00:58:32.840
<v Speaker 2>at least it probably should. But again, what what happens

1029
00:58:33.079 --> 00:58:35.800
<v Speaker 2>with that, we can only speculate. They might get some

1030
00:58:35.840 --> 00:58:39.599
<v Speaker 2>relief arms back that they can plug in, and who knows.

1031
00:58:39.880 --> 00:58:43.480
<v Speaker 2>It's how you how you make how do you make

1032
00:58:43.519 --> 00:58:44.840
<v Speaker 2>a call as to what's going to happen to the

1033
00:58:44.880 --> 00:58:45.400
<v Speaker 2>Mets bullpen.

1034
00:58:46.800 --> 00:58:49.840
<v Speaker 1>I know it's funny. I bought these tickets for this

1035
00:58:49.960 --> 00:58:53.159
<v Speaker 1>game today back in March, and I was not thinking

1036
00:58:53.199 --> 00:58:57.480
<v Speaker 1>about the trade deadline. The hindsight, I should have picked

1037
00:58:57.480 --> 00:58:58.159
<v Speaker 1>a different game.

1038
00:58:59.719 --> 00:59:02.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but you're gonna go. You're gonna have fun with

1039
00:59:02.480 --> 00:59:05.800
<v Speaker 2>the family and we'll scoot through this real quick so

1040
00:59:05.840 --> 00:59:06.679
<v Speaker 2>we can get you out here.

1041
00:59:07.039 --> 00:59:09.760
<v Speaker 1>No, I'm gonna be I'm gonna be worried about all

1042
00:59:09.760 --> 00:59:12.079
<v Speaker 1>the trades that are being made. I know, I know me, Tim,

1043
00:59:12.239 --> 00:59:12.599
<v Speaker 1>I I.

1044
00:59:14.639 --> 00:59:16.960
<v Speaker 2>Have have cell phone, will travel.

1045
00:59:18.159 --> 00:59:21.639
<v Speaker 1>Exactly. It was funny because, uh, last night, it was

1046
00:59:21.679 --> 00:59:26.400
<v Speaker 1>about midnight when the with the the the Cherk Scooble trade,

1047
00:59:26.440 --> 00:59:28.639
<v Speaker 1>when I was just finishing up a write up, I

1048
00:59:28.639 --> 00:59:32.639
<v Speaker 1>think of the Lewis case steel trade, like, I'm really tired.

1049
00:59:32.719 --> 00:59:35.800
<v Speaker 1>I'll write this in the morning. And what did I do, Timmy?

1050
00:59:35.880 --> 00:59:38.480
<v Speaker 1>I I wrote the article in my head for the

1051
00:59:38.519 --> 00:59:41.239
<v Speaker 1>next thirty minutes. Then I couldn't get to sleep, so

1052
00:59:41.719 --> 00:59:44.199
<v Speaker 1>I should have just gotten well, wrote the damn thing.

1053
00:59:45.079 --> 00:59:47.599
<v Speaker 2>Well, I remember, going back a few years now, this

1054
00:59:47.719 --> 00:59:49.880
<v Speaker 2>might be quite a few years. Were listening to you

1055
00:59:49.960 --> 00:59:54.320
<v Speaker 2>tell me a story about how you were at a wedding. Okay,

1056
00:59:54.400 --> 00:59:58.559
<v Speaker 2>and you spend a lot of time Yeah, yeah, you

1057
00:59:58.639 --> 01:00:00.400
<v Speaker 2>spend a lot of time in the bathroom, cheat and

1058
01:00:00.440 --> 01:00:03.679
<v Speaker 2>checking on your phone. I suggest you would be to

1059
01:00:03.719 --> 01:00:06.880
<v Speaker 2>tell Laurie that your stomach's a little bit, a little

1060
01:00:06.880 --> 01:00:08.639
<v Speaker 2>bit funky and it's a little bit of wax. Set

1061
01:00:08.679 --> 01:00:10.519
<v Speaker 2>this thing up. So when you get to the ballpark,

1062
01:00:10.960 --> 01:00:13.559
<v Speaker 2>you have to go to the bathroom on a regular basis, okay,

1063
01:00:13.559 --> 01:00:14.960
<v Speaker 2>and then you can check your phone.

1064
01:00:15.760 --> 01:00:17.679
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, my son had the nerve to get married in

1065
01:00:17.760 --> 01:00:21.400
<v Speaker 1>late September. Yeah, I know, and it was I mean,

1066
01:00:21.480 --> 01:00:24.199
<v Speaker 1>I was competing for a fantasy title, and I'm like,

1067
01:00:24.280 --> 01:00:26.280
<v Speaker 1>I had to check the scores.

1068
01:00:26.760 --> 01:00:30.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean, come on, yeah, you loved him before you

1069
01:00:30.119 --> 01:00:30.480
<v Speaker 2>loved him.

1070
01:00:31.880 --> 01:00:34.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, a huge check the damn wedding.

1071
01:00:38.360 --> 01:00:38.800
<v Speaker 2>And then.

1072
01:00:41.480 --> 01:00:43.800
<v Speaker 1>All right, Timmy, we got up up front, we got

1073
01:00:43.840 --> 01:00:47.760
<v Speaker 1>Kate Anderson. I think there's gonna be enough move another move,

1074
01:00:47.960 --> 01:00:50.679
<v Speaker 1>time's right, If somehow I sitting on a free agent pool.

1075
01:00:51.000 --> 01:00:54.880
<v Speaker 1>He shouldn't be this guy. If he doesn't start a

1076
01:00:54.920 --> 01:00:57.320
<v Speaker 1>game this coming week, there should be an investigation.

1077
01:00:58.400 --> 01:01:02.239
<v Speaker 2>Totally agreed, Totally.

1078
01:01:02.679 --> 01:01:06.079
<v Speaker 1>Hopefully he will perform like he has all season. I mean,

1079
01:01:06.079 --> 01:01:09.920
<v Speaker 1>it is the major leagues, but it's pretty mature Arsenal guy.

1080
01:01:09.920 --> 01:01:14.360
<v Speaker 1>It's got good control, good pitch ability. He's he's one

1081
01:01:14.440 --> 01:01:17.119
<v Speaker 1>of the more now ready pitchers we've seen in a

1082
01:01:17.199 --> 01:01:18.920
<v Speaker 1>while coming up for the minor leagues.

1083
01:01:20.239 --> 01:01:23.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. No, And everything he's done this year has been

1084
01:01:23.920 --> 01:01:26.360
<v Speaker 2>basically perfect, hasn't Yeah.

1085
01:01:26.360 --> 01:01:28.679
<v Speaker 1>I mean he's been been the best picture of the

1086
01:01:28.679 --> 01:01:30.320
<v Speaker 1>minor leagues and it's not been close.

1087
01:01:31.320 --> 01:01:32.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, exactly.

1088
01:01:32.800 --> 01:01:36.079
<v Speaker 1>Well, I was close in the first month with Seth

1089
01:01:36.119 --> 01:01:39.159
<v Speaker 1>Hernandez and then Seth Hernandez stumbled a little bit in

1090
01:01:39.280 --> 01:01:41.559
<v Speaker 1>High A, and now he's a bit hurt, and now

1091
01:01:41.599 --> 01:01:44.800
<v Speaker 1>it's Kate Anderson's just he's just been a monster. It's

1092
01:01:44.840 --> 01:01:47.159
<v Speaker 1>it's not the bottom line. I think I saw Key

1093
01:01:47.320 --> 01:01:49.519
<v Speaker 1>Wall had him as his number one prospect, which is

1094
01:01:49.559 --> 01:01:53.360
<v Speaker 1>a little a little over the top, but there's definitely

1095
01:01:53.360 --> 01:01:55.719
<v Speaker 1>an argument for that. Let's go to the second game

1096
01:01:55.800 --> 01:02:01.800
<v Speaker 1>flash from the past. Luis Capensano yeah, I think we'd be.

1097
01:02:04.159 --> 01:02:07.719
<v Speaker 2>You know, he's been a disappointment, there's no doubt about it.

1098
01:02:07.840 --> 01:02:12.079
<v Speaker 2>But lately he's showing some signs of life. Past week

1099
01:02:12.119 --> 01:02:16.360
<v Speaker 2>he's gone seven for fifteen, three RBIs, two catch er formats.

1100
01:02:17.079 --> 01:02:19.280
<v Speaker 2>I'd spend a buck on. Can I know if I

1101
01:02:19.360 --> 01:02:21.119
<v Speaker 2>was struggling to find the catcher this week?

1102
01:02:22.519 --> 01:02:26.360
<v Speaker 1>Max Clark, tell me what your impressions are so far?

1103
01:02:28.599 --> 01:02:33.119
<v Speaker 2>I don't care how much blinking he wears. Okay, he

1104
01:02:33.159 --> 01:02:38.800
<v Speaker 2>can hit, and in his first two games nine at bats,

1105
01:02:38.840 --> 01:02:42.119
<v Speaker 2>two singles, two doubles, a home run. He hasn't run yet,

1106
01:02:42.159 --> 01:02:43.320
<v Speaker 2>but that will come.

1107
01:02:44.800 --> 01:02:46.760
<v Speaker 1>He's a seventy runners. That's gonna happen.

1108
01:02:46.800 --> 01:02:50.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Yeah, Apparently the rumors he can hit her true.

1109
01:02:50.760 --> 01:02:55.639
<v Speaker 2>If you have if you have anything left in your fab,

1110
01:02:55.679 --> 01:02:57.880
<v Speaker 2>if you have the most fab and you have six

1111
01:02:57.960 --> 01:03:03.960
<v Speaker 2>hundred and eighteen dollars, uh, spend one dollar more than

1112
01:03:03.960 --> 01:03:06.119
<v Speaker 2>what the next person has and you get this guy.

1113
01:03:06.360 --> 01:03:06.679
<v Speaker 2>Oh was that?

1114
01:03:07.320 --> 01:03:09.760
<v Speaker 1>Look? I never gave up hope. As you know, I've

1115
01:03:09.760 --> 01:03:13.760
<v Speaker 1>been a Max Clark apologist. I even wrote that you

1116
01:03:13.840 --> 01:03:15.880
<v Speaker 1>might see him take the next level once he gets

1117
01:03:15.880 --> 01:03:18.400
<v Speaker 1>to the major leagues because he just never had that

1118
01:03:18.519 --> 01:03:22.000
<v Speaker 1>draft drop mic season that almost every young player has

1119
01:03:22.039 --> 01:03:25.480
<v Speaker 1>where it's just like, well, kind of like Joshua Bias

1120
01:03:25.519 --> 01:03:27.840
<v Speaker 1>where you're just screaming like why isn't he up? You

1121
01:03:27.920 --> 01:03:31.000
<v Speaker 1>never had that year with Max Clark. It's like, oh, yeah,

1122
01:03:31.039 --> 01:03:34.760
<v Speaker 1>he's pretty good. But the everything about the underlying stats

1123
01:03:34.760 --> 01:03:37.000
<v Speaker 1>that it was all there. He's always been really really young.

1124
01:03:37.559 --> 01:03:39.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he's ever going to be a you know,

1125
01:03:40.159 --> 01:03:42.320
<v Speaker 1>a first round draft pick, but he's one of those

1126
01:03:42.320 --> 01:03:45.880
<v Speaker 1>guys that's just going to be fifteen to twenty home runs,

1127
01:03:45.960 --> 01:03:48.599
<v Speaker 1>twenty stolen base and the guy can hit and just

1128
01:03:48.840 --> 01:03:50.320
<v Speaker 1>it's going to be a year in and year out.

1129
01:03:50.320 --> 01:03:51.039
<v Speaker 1>That's the player.

1130
01:03:51.039 --> 01:03:53.920
<v Speaker 2>He's going to be in a dynasty league. He's the

1131
01:03:53.960 --> 01:03:55.840
<v Speaker 2>type of player that can anchor your team for a

1132
01:03:55.880 --> 01:03:56.360
<v Speaker 2>long time.

1133
01:03:56.599 --> 01:03:59.119
<v Speaker 1>That's right, that's right. I mean, sure you'd wish him to,

1134
01:03:59.320 --> 01:04:00.960
<v Speaker 1>You wish he was kind on a Griffin, but he's not.

1135
01:04:01.440 --> 01:04:03.199
<v Speaker 1>It just isn't It's just the way it is.

1136
01:04:04.280 --> 01:04:07.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah, that's apples and apples sort of, right.

1137
01:04:08.360 --> 01:04:11.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, you got to take the player for who

1138
01:04:11.920 --> 01:04:15.159
<v Speaker 1>they are, and I think high floors there's a lot

1139
01:04:15.199 --> 01:04:18.840
<v Speaker 1>of value there. I think people people discount that because

1140
01:04:18.840 --> 01:04:21.519
<v Speaker 1>they're all looking for the thirty five home run guy

1141
01:04:21.599 --> 01:04:24.760
<v Speaker 1>or the forty stolen base guy. And give me the

1142
01:04:24.800 --> 01:04:26.960
<v Speaker 1>guy that hits fifteen to twenty home runs and steals

1143
01:04:27.000 --> 01:04:29.000
<v Speaker 1>fifteen to twenty bases and I'll just take that every

1144
01:04:29.079 --> 01:04:29.639
<v Speaker 1>day of the week.

1145
01:04:30.800 --> 01:04:34.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, in my league, the drafts that has our fab

1146
01:04:34.280 --> 01:04:39.840
<v Speaker 2>on on Saturday nights, rich the team that's in fifth

1147
01:04:40.559 --> 01:04:42.880
<v Speaker 2>at a pile of money. They spent two hundred and

1148
01:04:42.920 --> 01:04:47.079
<v Speaker 2>forty two to acquire Max Clark last night. You're going

1149
01:04:47.159 --> 01:04:50.760
<v Speaker 2>to have to spend. Sky's a limit on this guy.

1150
01:04:50.840 --> 01:04:53.159
<v Speaker 2>Spend if you've got the most fabs, spend a dollar

1151
01:04:53.239 --> 01:04:56.000
<v Speaker 2>more than you have to. But get the guy roster. Know,

1152
01:04:56.239 --> 01:04:59.599
<v Speaker 2>if you have the opportunity, don't pass on it.

1153
01:05:00.079 --> 01:05:04.519
<v Speaker 1>Yep. Yeah, he's tatted up, he's blinged up, and but

1154
01:05:04.719 --> 01:05:07.199
<v Speaker 1>you know, yeah, that's just that's just the guy he is.

1155
01:05:07.280 --> 01:05:10.239
<v Speaker 1>I mean, who cares, That's that's who he is. Brian

1156
01:05:10.480 --> 01:05:13.159
<v Speaker 1>de la Cruz, outfielder with the Philadelphia Phillies.

1157
01:05:14.920 --> 01:05:17.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the the Phillies have been shuffling the outfield decks

1158
01:05:17.800 --> 01:05:22.760
<v Speaker 2>since the old Garcias season ended. You know, they've they've

1159
01:05:22.800 --> 01:05:25.960
<v Speaker 2>gone with various different options, and so far they really

1160
01:05:26.000 --> 01:05:29.559
<v Speaker 2>haven't found anything, but Dela Cruz he's going to start

1161
01:05:29.559 --> 01:05:32.760
<v Speaker 2>earning more playing time, you know, since getting called up

1162
01:05:32.960 --> 01:05:34.840
<v Speaker 2>about a week week now. He ate for a team

1163
01:05:34.880 --> 01:05:38.079
<v Speaker 2>of the home run three RBIs if you're looking for

1164
01:05:38.199 --> 01:05:43.159
<v Speaker 2>a cheap dark toss in the outfield. If he continues

1165
01:05:43.199 --> 01:05:46.239
<v Speaker 2>to hit, he's going to continue to get opportunities. So

1166
01:05:47.199 --> 01:05:49.960
<v Speaker 2>maybe de la Cruz Bruce to be the answer. Would

1167
01:05:50.000 --> 01:05:53.679
<v Speaker 2>I bet big money? No, But so far he's doing

1168
01:05:53.719 --> 01:05:56.960
<v Speaker 2>what it takes to be hanging out in that outfield,

1169
01:05:57.159 --> 01:05:59.119
<v Speaker 2>So why not?

1170
01:06:00.920 --> 01:06:02.320
<v Speaker 1>Were you a Chris Farley fan?

1171
01:06:04.559 --> 01:06:05.239
<v Speaker 2>Not overly?

1172
01:06:05.360 --> 01:06:09.239
<v Speaker 1>No? Uh. He had this bit that he did when

1173
01:06:09.239 --> 01:06:11.440
<v Speaker 1>he was on Saturday Night Live where he would like

1174
01:06:11.800 --> 01:06:13.719
<v Speaker 1>when he would meet a famous person. They did it

1175
01:06:13.760 --> 01:06:18.440
<v Speaker 1>with Paul McCartney. He would go, remember that time you

1176
01:06:18.519 --> 01:06:22.360
<v Speaker 1>were in a stadium with all those fans screaming your

1177
01:06:22.480 --> 01:06:25.800
<v Speaker 1>name and blah blah blah, and Paul McCartney goes yeah,

1178
01:06:25.800 --> 01:06:29.360
<v Speaker 1>he goes, well, that was awesome. That was one of

1179
01:06:28.880 --> 01:06:32.760
<v Speaker 1>his bits. I feel like when looking at Britton Doyle

1180
01:06:32.880 --> 01:06:35.679
<v Speaker 1>was the same thing. It's like, remember the year when

1181
01:06:35.760 --> 01:06:40.119
<v Speaker 1>he had twenty three months So that was awesome and

1182
01:06:40.199 --> 01:06:41.679
<v Speaker 1>it's been terrible since.

1183
01:06:42.800 --> 01:06:47.960
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, you know, personal tragedy, in juries. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

1184
01:06:48.360 --> 01:06:54.079
<v Speaker 2>but he's back off the il Ah. I would spend

1185
01:06:54.119 --> 01:06:56.119
<v Speaker 2>a couple of months if I have an Oakfield hoole,

1186
01:06:56.639 --> 01:06:58.880
<v Speaker 2>just to see what happens over the next couple of months.

1187
01:06:58.920 --> 01:07:01.480
<v Speaker 2>He's going to get an opportuny. Need to play with

1188
01:07:01.639 --> 01:07:07.239
<v Speaker 2>the opportunity. Yeah, who knows. I if you got a

1189
01:07:07.239 --> 01:07:09.679
<v Speaker 2>hole in the outfield, I would look at Brenton Doyle.

1190
01:07:10.360 --> 01:07:12.159
<v Speaker 2>Would I spend a lot to do it? No?

1191
01:07:12.920 --> 01:07:15.239
<v Speaker 1>Spender Jones on another home run, I think it was yesterday,

1192
01:07:15.920 --> 01:07:18.599
<v Speaker 1>So he's got power, tim question.

1193
01:07:20.559 --> 01:07:22.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, in the past four games he had three home

1194
01:07:22.360 --> 01:07:26.360
<v Speaker 2>runs and added a stolen base for good measure. He's

1195
01:07:26.400 --> 01:07:30.840
<v Speaker 2>hot and when hot, that skill set brings plenty of

1196
01:07:30.880 --> 01:07:36.000
<v Speaker 2>goodness to the table. Hey, he's gonna play. He's the

1197
01:07:36.000 --> 01:07:37.719
<v Speaker 2>guy that you're going to spend money on if you

1198
01:07:37.760 --> 01:07:40.599
<v Speaker 2>want him this weekend when you had three three home

1199
01:07:40.639 --> 01:07:46.480
<v Speaker 2>runs in four days. Yeah, with his skill set, Yeah,

1200
01:07:46.559 --> 01:07:49.519
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna spend some money. But he might he might

1201
01:07:50.000 --> 01:07:51.199
<v Speaker 2>stay off in space for you.

1202
01:07:51.599 --> 01:07:54.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he'll break your heart. That's just what I think.

1203
01:07:54.639 --> 01:07:56.599
<v Speaker 1>But he has long term.

1204
01:07:56.679 --> 01:08:00.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm long term long term. I agree redraft leagues.

1205
01:08:00.480 --> 01:08:03.239
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's the speed and power that's for sure to

1206
01:08:03.320 --> 01:08:04.880
<v Speaker 1>me to take a final break, come back and let's

1207
01:08:04.880 --> 01:08:20.520
<v Speaker 1>finish up your list. Mister Quinn Matthews. We've already talked

1208
01:08:20.520 --> 01:08:22.880
<v Speaker 1>of Matthews with one tea by the way, everyone, so

1209
01:08:23.079 --> 01:08:26.319
<v Speaker 1>just if you're searching for him, it's one t In Matthews.

1210
01:08:27.000 --> 01:08:32.279
<v Speaker 1>Uh you what your you talked about Dustin May getting moved.

1211
01:08:32.680 --> 01:08:35.239
<v Speaker 1>That would make a lot of sense to me, given

1212
01:08:36.000 --> 01:08:39.399
<v Speaker 1>the injury history of Dustin May. I'd get whatever I

1213
01:08:39.439 --> 01:08:41.960
<v Speaker 1>could from him and bring up Quinn Matthews. What do

1214
01:08:42.000 --> 01:08:42.359
<v Speaker 1>you think?

1215
01:08:42.520 --> 01:08:47.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, bingo, that's that's where I'm at. Time to see

1216
01:08:47.279 --> 01:08:49.920
<v Speaker 2>what the kids got and the Cards have gone into

1217
01:08:49.960 --> 01:08:51.920
<v Speaker 2>a bit of a swoon. They're not scoring any runs.

1218
01:08:51.960 --> 01:08:54.439
<v Speaker 2>Their offense is really in the tank right now. It's

1219
01:08:54.520 --> 01:08:56.800
<v Speaker 2>just too bad the Cards didn't have anybody down on

1220
01:08:56.840 --> 01:08:59.119
<v Speaker 2>the farm that might be able to help them out. Hint,

1221
01:08:59.359 --> 01:09:03.319
<v Speaker 2>friggain and get bias up. Come on Cards, do they

1222
01:09:03.439 --> 01:09:06.800
<v Speaker 2>do the right thing? But anything? Getting back to Quinn Matthews, Yeah,

1223
01:09:06.840 --> 01:09:08.960
<v Speaker 2>I think he's going to be in that rotation right

1224
01:09:09.640 --> 01:09:12.279
<v Speaker 2>right down the stretch, So I would spend a little

1225
01:09:12.279 --> 01:09:14.199
<v Speaker 2>bit of money on Quinn Matthews.

1226
01:09:15.479 --> 01:09:18.800
<v Speaker 1>H Andrew Painter is the next guy. A lot of

1227
01:09:18.880 --> 01:09:21.720
<v Speaker 1>expectations did not meet it this season. He came up

1228
01:09:21.720 --> 01:09:24.239
<v Speaker 1>for a spot start to put some of the way

1229
01:09:24.279 --> 01:09:24.760
<v Speaker 1>for our.

1230
01:09:24.640 --> 01:09:29.640
<v Speaker 2>Why because you pitch well. He pitched really well. Early on,

1231
01:09:29.840 --> 01:09:32.039
<v Speaker 2>he gave up a two run shot to Alonso, but

1232
01:09:32.119 --> 01:09:35.720
<v Speaker 2>after that his spots starred. He was hitting. His spots

1233
01:09:36.720 --> 01:09:39.399
<v Speaker 2>went six innings, three hits or walks, two were and

1234
01:09:39.520 --> 01:09:42.680
<v Speaker 2>runs six strikeouts. I put one in a row. Isn't

1235
01:09:42.720 --> 01:09:46.199
<v Speaker 2>a streak, but there might be the starter one. I

1236
01:09:46.279 --> 01:09:50.880
<v Speaker 2>just think there's I still believe in Andrew paint Painter.

1237
01:09:51.039 --> 01:09:56.239
<v Speaker 2>Maybe I'm an apologist whatever, but I just think that

1238
01:09:57.760 --> 01:10:01.239
<v Speaker 2>we haven't seen anywhere near the best of Andrew Painter.

1239
01:10:01.399 --> 01:10:03.760
<v Speaker 2>And would I spend a bundle for him tonight. No,

1240
01:10:03.840 --> 01:10:06.399
<v Speaker 2>but I would spend something I wouldn't let somebody else

1241
01:10:06.840 --> 01:10:08.960
<v Speaker 2>I woul wouldn't know if somebody else take advantage of

1242
01:10:09.000 --> 01:10:11.359
<v Speaker 2>the opportunity and get a freebee.

1243
01:10:11.880 --> 01:10:14.680
<v Speaker 1>As an apologist for many players, Tommy, I can assure

1244
01:10:14.720 --> 01:10:17.119
<v Speaker 1>you it as a lonely spot to be. But if

1245
01:10:17.119 --> 01:10:20.880
<v Speaker 1>you believe, you believe, and that's the important part. I think.

1246
01:10:21.119 --> 01:10:24.000
<v Speaker 1>I think it's a good person to be an apologist for.

1247
01:10:24.479 --> 01:10:31.119
<v Speaker 2>So Okay, thank you very much. I appreciate that I've.

1248
01:10:30.960 --> 01:10:34.479
<v Speaker 1>Got Cooper Pratt in a couple of leagues and I'm

1249
01:10:34.520 --> 01:10:38.479
<v Speaker 1>playing them over the labor touruses of the world to see.

1250
01:10:38.600 --> 01:10:39.600
<v Speaker 1>He's been fantastic.

1251
01:10:40.960 --> 01:10:43.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he just keeps on a rule and in the

1252
01:10:43.119 --> 01:10:46.920
<v Speaker 2>past week, uh, he's driven them five runs, swiped a

1253
01:10:46.960 --> 01:10:49.640
<v Speaker 2>couple of bases. He's a bat of three thirty three.

1254
01:10:49.840 --> 01:10:51.840
<v Speaker 2>He's now up to ten steals in his first one

1255
01:10:51.920 --> 01:10:54.680
<v Speaker 2>hundred and fourteen MLB at that's I own. It's a

1256
01:10:54.760 --> 01:10:58.079
<v Speaker 2>three eighty two OBP. Why is the only roster in

1257
01:10:58.199 --> 01:11:00.479
<v Speaker 2>forty four percent of the league's I'm not gonna I

1258
01:11:00.479 --> 01:11:00.920
<v Speaker 2>don't think.

1259
01:11:00.840 --> 01:11:03.039
<v Speaker 1>The power has come up yet. So I think that

1260
01:11:03.119 --> 01:11:06.760
<v Speaker 1>might be maybe people are moved over to football.

1261
01:11:06.920 --> 01:11:11.279
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, Yeah, I don't know. He's been fantastic

1262
01:11:11.720 --> 01:11:16.720
<v Speaker 2>for up Ron Cooper Brad and I'm not going to

1263
01:11:16.760 --> 01:11:19.520
<v Speaker 2>mention him anymore of this year, but he is one

1264
01:11:19.560 --> 01:11:22.880
<v Speaker 2>player that I would really like to have in redraft

1265
01:11:22.960 --> 01:11:26.560
<v Speaker 2>leagues next year as my middle infield type player.

1266
01:11:27.760 --> 01:11:31.199
<v Speaker 1>Two home runs, ten solen bases, and eighteen percent strikeout right,

1267
01:11:31.279 --> 01:11:34.079
<v Speaker 1>a thirty percent walk rate. It's three forty four Babbitt,

1268
01:11:34.119 --> 01:11:37.239
<v Speaker 1>which is an awful I mean, that's that's what you

1269
01:11:37.319 --> 01:11:39.520
<v Speaker 1>wanted of a rookie. I mean, it's just showing good

1270
01:11:39.600 --> 01:11:43.359
<v Speaker 1>contact skills and he's running. He's got a little bit

1271
01:11:43.399 --> 01:11:45.680
<v Speaker 1>more speed, a little bit more power that will eventually

1272
01:11:45.680 --> 01:11:47.319
<v Speaker 1>come out. He's never going to be a power hitter,

1273
01:11:47.399 --> 01:11:50.079
<v Speaker 1>but it's a good baseball player.

1274
01:11:51.079 --> 01:11:53.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think so, and I think I think the

1275
01:11:53.199 --> 01:11:55.479
<v Speaker 2>Brewers are very happy to have him in the everyday lineup.

1276
01:11:55.800 --> 01:12:00.319
<v Speaker 1>Yep, A little bit like Max Clark. So let's gonna

1277
01:12:00.319 --> 01:12:02.159
<v Speaker 1>be a you're gonna you're gonna sit down maybe in

1278
01:12:02.239 --> 01:12:06.279
<v Speaker 1>thirty seven games and see a very similar production line

1279
01:12:06.760 --> 01:12:10.319
<v Speaker 1>for Max Clark. Would be my guess. Last guy, my

1280
01:12:10.439 --> 01:12:14.439
<v Speaker 1>guy River Ryan weird to see a Detroit Tiger emblem

1281
01:12:14.560 --> 01:12:15.880
<v Speaker 1>next to him, but that's what we got.

1282
01:12:17.000 --> 01:12:21.239
<v Speaker 2>That's what we got. And my thoughts would be get

1283
01:12:21.279 --> 01:12:26.840
<v Speaker 2>him Roger down my why wait, he is going to

1284
01:12:26.920 --> 01:12:28.920
<v Speaker 2>be in the Tiger's rotation as soon as he gets

1285
01:12:28.960 --> 01:12:32.199
<v Speaker 2>through the hamstring issue, So make the move now.

1286
01:12:33.520 --> 01:12:36.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think it'll be I don't know when he's

1287
01:12:36.079 --> 01:12:37.760
<v Speaker 1>coming back from the hamstring with a couple of starts

1288
01:12:37.760 --> 01:12:41.800
<v Speaker 1>in triple A and then he's out. Ye uh your

1289
01:12:41.800 --> 01:12:45.239
<v Speaker 1>closer report. You got three guys Camillos and it's this

1290
01:12:45.279 --> 01:12:47.399
<v Speaker 1>is the thing that's really gonna change. And we'll probably

1291
01:12:47.399 --> 01:12:52.439
<v Speaker 1>do a podcast on Tuesday or Wednesday, depends on how

1292
01:12:52.520 --> 01:12:56.560
<v Speaker 1>comotos I am on Tuesday after after staying up all night.

1293
01:12:57.720 --> 01:13:00.560
<v Speaker 1>I probably it's probably going to be a long night,

1294
01:13:00.600 --> 01:13:03.800
<v Speaker 1>that would be my guess. I mean, because it's we've

1295
01:13:03.880 --> 01:13:06.119
<v Speaker 1>had probably got a third of the trains. It's usually

1296
01:13:06.119 --> 01:13:08.520
<v Speaker 1>two thirds coming, a third, a third and a third.

1297
01:13:08.560 --> 01:13:10.479
<v Speaker 1>That's the way it does the last three days, so

1298
01:13:10.560 --> 01:13:12.359
<v Speaker 1>we got we got a lot coming still.

1299
01:13:13.600 --> 01:13:16.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and I'm I'm up for Tuesday. And if you're

1300
01:13:16.680 --> 01:13:20.880
<v Speaker 2>going to be up late, I'm definitely willing to make

1301
01:13:20.920 --> 01:13:23.119
<v Speaker 2>it instead of six thirty in the morning seven if

1302
01:13:23.159 --> 01:13:23.560
<v Speaker 2>that helps.

1303
01:13:25.880 --> 01:13:31.800
<v Speaker 1>That's why you're just all heart my friend. Close the report.

1304
01:13:31.880 --> 01:13:38.039
<v Speaker 1>We got Camille dival. I I might throw a buck

1305
01:13:38.119 --> 01:13:42.039
<v Speaker 1>down on him. I I don't know something, it's a

1306
01:13:42.079 --> 01:13:45.800
<v Speaker 1>gut feeling. I have the stuff. It still throws really

1307
01:13:45.880 --> 01:13:48.119
<v Speaker 1>really hard do it.

1308
01:13:48.359 --> 01:13:50.880
<v Speaker 2>He could end up with fifteen saves over the next

1309
01:13:50.880 --> 01:13:51.960
<v Speaker 2>few months.

1310
01:13:52.439 --> 01:13:56.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he's say so, And I makeson Montgomery sex pretty

1311
01:13:56.720 --> 01:13:59.720
<v Speaker 1>good but crazy, so I he answer Anthony Deming is

1312
01:13:59.760 --> 01:14:02.119
<v Speaker 1>there on my I don't even want to talk about

1313
01:14:02.159 --> 01:14:05.720
<v Speaker 1>them less. I don't like these guys.

1314
01:14:06.600 --> 01:14:11.239
<v Speaker 2>Jordan Romano is ranked higher by Rich Wilson in the

1315
01:14:11.279 --> 01:14:11.800
<v Speaker 2>same group.

1316
01:14:12.199 --> 01:14:15.359
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I've been burned by those guys. It's Kevin

1317
01:14:15.960 --> 01:14:19.119
<v Speaker 1>all over again. I mean, those guys leave a mark

1318
01:14:19.159 --> 01:14:22.279
<v Speaker 1>where you spend a fortune on fab and then they

1319
01:14:22.279 --> 01:14:25.279
<v Speaker 1>come and they punch a six arra and they lose

1320
01:14:25.279 --> 01:14:27.079
<v Speaker 1>their job in a week and a half, and I'm

1321
01:14:27.119 --> 01:14:28.840
<v Speaker 1>just done.

1322
01:14:29.760 --> 01:14:32.239
<v Speaker 2>I get it. I get it. One of the guys

1323
01:14:32.239 --> 01:14:35.319
<v Speaker 2>that I was never a bully, Sean is is not

1324
01:14:35.439 --> 01:14:37.439
<v Speaker 2>the next guy, but the guy he replaced. I was

1325
01:14:37.479 --> 01:14:38.880
<v Speaker 2>never a big Faulsea wolf man.

1326
01:14:39.520 --> 01:14:44.960
<v Speaker 1>No, I remember that when it was with Seattle, right, Yeah,

1327
01:14:45.079 --> 01:14:46.079
<v Speaker 1>you know you lost the gig.

1328
01:14:46.159 --> 01:14:49.520
<v Speaker 2>And last night he sealed his fate, totally allowed five

1329
01:14:49.680 --> 01:14:54.640
<v Speaker 2>and runs without getting it out. So definitely low leverage

1330
01:14:54.640 --> 01:14:56.880
<v Speaker 2>for Faulsea Wold. He's out of the East, totally out

1331
01:14:56.920 --> 01:14:57.359
<v Speaker 2>of the mix.

1332
01:14:57.680 --> 01:15:01.000
<v Speaker 1>And Bradon Garcia's attend that the guy that Tim's got

1333
01:15:01.399 --> 01:15:03.560
<v Speaker 1>down for who was going to take over the.

1334
01:15:03.640 --> 01:15:07.680
<v Speaker 2>Role, well, you know, it's a committee. We covered it

1335
01:15:07.720 --> 01:15:11.159
<v Speaker 2>on Friday and I gave my full rationale on Friday,

1336
01:15:11.199 --> 01:15:13.720
<v Speaker 2>and I'm sticking to it. He's the only lefty in

1337
01:15:13.760 --> 01:15:16.119
<v Speaker 2>the bullpen, and Tory Levello said he's going to mix

1338
01:15:16.159 --> 01:15:20.039
<v Speaker 2>and match, so he's going to get lots of opportunities.

1339
01:15:20.119 --> 01:15:24.720
<v Speaker 2>And guess what, He's gotten two saves in his first

1340
01:15:24.760 --> 01:15:28.159
<v Speaker 2>two opportunities to pitch since see what was removed they

1341
01:15:28.680 --> 01:15:31.720
<v Speaker 2>from the from the gigs, So you know, being the

1342
01:15:31.720 --> 01:15:34.319
<v Speaker 2>only lefty, even if it's a committee, I still think

1343
01:15:34.359 --> 01:15:37.159
<v Speaker 2>Garcia is going to get plenty of opportunities for saves

1344
01:15:38.039 --> 01:15:41.720
<v Speaker 2>in Arizona. Now again, that could change once we see

1345
01:15:41.880 --> 01:15:44.960
<v Speaker 2>Justin Martinez back and he's heading over in a rehab assignment,

1346
01:15:45.000 --> 01:15:48.560
<v Speaker 2>but temporarily, of all the guys there, I think I

1347
01:15:48.640 --> 01:15:51.760
<v Speaker 2>like Garcia the best of Merlo probably number two or

1348
01:15:52.520 --> 01:15:56.640
<v Speaker 2>the was Aga, the Wisago him too.

1349
01:15:59.159 --> 01:16:02.640
<v Speaker 1>That was going, yeah, Martinez is coming back from Tommy

1350
01:16:02.680 --> 01:16:05.720
<v Speaker 1>John surgery. But Garcia throws really really hard tim so

1351
01:16:05.840 --> 01:16:09.880
<v Speaker 1>we looked at that just tying seven point three and

1352
01:16:09.960 --> 01:16:13.199
<v Speaker 1>a nasty, nasty sweeper. So it's classic kind of closer

1353
01:16:13.239 --> 01:16:14.079
<v Speaker 1>profile there.

1354
01:16:14.800 --> 01:16:17.279
<v Speaker 2>Uh, and the last left ed hitters aren't going to

1355
01:16:17.399 --> 01:16:18.239
<v Speaker 2>like him at all. Now.

1356
01:16:19.359 --> 01:16:22.159
<v Speaker 1>Eric Miller with San Francisco Giants, who do you like

1357
01:16:22.640 --> 01:16:24.920
<v Speaker 1>if they're both in the wave where Eric Miller or

1358
01:16:24.960 --> 01:16:26.479
<v Speaker 1>Braiden Garcia.

1359
01:16:28.720 --> 01:16:34.119
<v Speaker 2>Eric Miller and it's not it's not I like Garcia better,

1360
01:16:35.359 --> 01:16:38.159
<v Speaker 2>But with what Lavello has said and the mix and

1361
01:16:38.199 --> 01:16:42.720
<v Speaker 2>the committee and Justin Martinez returning, I think Eric. I

1362
01:16:42.760 --> 01:16:46.680
<v Speaker 2>think Braiden Garcia has a much higher ceiling but also

1363
01:16:46.760 --> 01:16:50.760
<v Speaker 2>higher risk because of all the various variables involved. Eric

1364
01:16:50.800 --> 01:16:52.720
<v Speaker 2>Miller I only has to worry about a whole like

1365
01:16:52.760 --> 01:16:55.000
<v Speaker 2>of a lot. He's now got back to back saves.

1366
01:16:55.439 --> 01:16:59.840
<v Speaker 2>He's had a consistently good year. The upside. No, But

1367
01:17:00.560 --> 01:17:03.399
<v Speaker 2>if I was looking at playing the safe and cheaper bad,

1368
01:17:03.479 --> 01:17:06.159
<v Speaker 2>I'd stay away from Arizona and go with San Francisco.

1369
01:17:07.079 --> 01:17:09.239
<v Speaker 2>I think you can get Miller for half the money.

1370
01:17:09.279 --> 01:17:13.319
<v Speaker 2>You'll get an Arizona closer like Garcia, and you might

1371
01:17:13.399 --> 01:17:18.239
<v Speaker 2>end up seeing better results two months from now. Okay,

1372
01:17:18.319 --> 01:17:21.680
<v Speaker 2>So I'd go with Miller over Garcia. He'd be my

1373
01:17:21.760 --> 01:17:23.520
<v Speaker 2>number one closer option. This week.

1374
01:17:24.600 --> 01:17:26.920
<v Speaker 1>I've got some teams that are really hurting from a

1375
01:17:26.960 --> 01:17:30.840
<v Speaker 1>closer standpoint, so I might be partaking in some of those.

1376
01:17:31.720 --> 01:17:36.319
<v Speaker 1>I gotta do something, Timmy. I have no closer. I mean,

1377
01:17:36.439 --> 01:17:40.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm literally starting eight seven or eight starters every week

1378
01:17:41.079 --> 01:17:43.640
<v Speaker 1>and then some middle relievers. It's it's tough in a

1379
01:17:43.680 --> 01:17:45.600
<v Speaker 1>couple of those leagues lost everybody.

1380
01:17:46.119 --> 01:17:49.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, the guy I target would be Miller. I

1381
01:17:49.279 --> 01:17:51.560
<v Speaker 2>think he's the safest, the safest of the three.

1382
01:17:52.720 --> 01:17:54.800
<v Speaker 1>I'll give it a I'll give it the old college try.

1383
01:17:54.920 --> 01:17:56.560
<v Speaker 1>And to me, that is a wrap, my friend. It

1384
01:17:56.760 --> 01:17:59.720
<v Speaker 1>is three twenty. I need to do the post propection

1385
01:17:59.840 --> 01:18:02.399
<v Speaker 1>here and I got to get get off to the game.

1386
01:18:03.279 --> 01:18:04.920
<v Speaker 1>The weather looks like it's going to hold I think

1387
01:18:04.960 --> 01:18:07.600
<v Speaker 1>tomorrow it's I think the I think no one is

1388
01:18:07.720 --> 01:18:10.000
<v Speaker 1>ark are going to be out tomorrow. So apparently it's

1389
01:18:10.000 --> 01:18:12.760
<v Speaker 1>supposed to be really rough for tomorrow. But today I

1390
01:18:12.840 --> 01:18:14.479
<v Speaker 1>think that the rain is going to hold off. I'm

1391
01:18:14.520 --> 01:18:17.920
<v Speaker 1>looking forward to that. And I just checked and there's

1392
01:18:18.039 --> 01:18:20.239
<v Speaker 1>no more trades. The thing at the top of the list,

1393
01:18:20.319 --> 01:18:24.279
<v Speaker 1>and I use MLB trade rumers. If people they're always looking,

1394
01:18:25.319 --> 01:18:28.479
<v Speaker 1>that's a great, uh, I think, a great source to

1395
01:18:28.520 --> 01:18:31.159
<v Speaker 1>do a really good job at tracking all the trades.

1396
01:18:31.239 --> 01:18:32.760
<v Speaker 1>So that's that is what I use.

1397
01:18:32.920 --> 01:18:36.840
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, I think it's a good option. To me.

1398
01:18:36.960 --> 01:18:39.600
<v Speaker 1>We will talk again on tomorrow. We'll figure out if

1399
01:18:39.600 --> 01:18:42.000
<v Speaker 1>we can do Tuesday or Wednesday, and we'll try to

1400
01:18:42.079 --> 01:18:44.000
<v Speaker 1>get together and talk about all the trades that have

1401
01:18:44.159 --> 01:18:44.800
<v Speaker 1>that have happened.

1402
01:18:46.119 --> 01:18:48.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, a AM is my final offer.

1403
01:18:48.359 --> 01:18:49.920
<v Speaker 1>By the way, am.

1404
01:18:53.239 --> 01:18:57.279
<v Speaker 2>I know you, Laurie the family, have a wonderful day

1405
01:18:57.319 --> 01:19:00.880
<v Speaker 2>at the ballpark, have fun and enjoy time with the family.

1406
01:19:01.199 --> 01:19:05.520
<v Speaker 2>And to all our listeners, let's let's hope that the

1407
01:19:05.600 --> 01:19:09.159
<v Speaker 2>trade deadline works out well for each and every one

1408
01:19:09.239 --> 01:19:11.920
<v Speaker 2>of us. Uh. We'll catch you early in the week

1409
01:19:12.479 --> 01:19:14.720
<v Speaker 2>for an update. Thanks Rachel.
