<v Speaker 1>Greeney's Societations. Everyone, It's twelve and walking too. Fantasy Baseball Live.

2
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:27.359
<v Speaker 1>Today is the twenty first of August, and Tim and

3
00:00:27.440 --> 00:00:30.079
<v Speaker 1>I are a little hairy today. I made Tim see

4
00:00:30.079 --> 00:00:32.159
<v Speaker 1>if we could get earlier on the podcast, and he's

5
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:35.320
<v Speaker 1>running from all of his many jobs that he has,

6
00:00:35.359 --> 00:00:39.359
<v Speaker 1>and I've got a delivery, furniture delivery coming and supposedly

7
00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:44.240
<v Speaker 1>anywhere from nine thirty here to eleven thirty, so we'll

8
00:00:44.240 --> 00:00:46.240
<v Speaker 1>see what happens. You see if we can squeeze an

9
00:00:46.280 --> 00:00:47.520
<v Speaker 1>eight podcasts.

10
00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:52.280
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, our lives are very hectic. And just one

11
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:55.600
<v Speaker 2>of those nights at the old hospital, emergency was busy

12
00:00:55.759 --> 00:00:58.920
<v Speaker 2>and they got back up longer for report, so I

13
00:00:58.960 --> 00:01:02.079
<v Speaker 2>couldn't speak as much as I wanted to sneak out early.

14
00:01:03.399 --> 00:01:04.879
<v Speaker 2>It wasn't in the cards for GA.

15
00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:08.760
<v Speaker 1>Totally understand, and I appreciate you making your best effort,

16
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:11.799
<v Speaker 1>and I apologize. My schedule's been a little nuts here

17
00:01:11.799 --> 00:01:14.280
<v Speaker 1>of the last few weeks. And I said, we've got

18
00:01:14.359 --> 00:01:16.719
<v Speaker 1>this new place to me and it's not furniture, so

19
00:01:16.760 --> 00:01:20.000
<v Speaker 1>we quick had to buy all this furniture, and we

20
00:01:20.079 --> 00:01:21.920
<v Speaker 1>have a bought furniture in a long time. I don't

21
00:01:21.920 --> 00:01:24.799
<v Speaker 1>know if you have, it takes forever for it to come.

22
00:01:25.280 --> 00:01:28.799
<v Speaker 1>Unless you buy it off the floor, it takes forever.

23
00:01:29.120 --> 00:01:33.040
<v Speaker 1>It takes forever. I mean weeks, like months, actually four

24
00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:35.359
<v Speaker 1>to five months for stuff to get made and deliver,

25
00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:38.599
<v Speaker 1>and then then they give you okay, we're delivering on Friday.

26
00:01:39.120 --> 00:01:44.599
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Yeah, you got a choice. Yeah you can, like

27
00:01:44.719 --> 00:01:46.959
<v Speaker 2>you said, you can buy off the floor or sit

28
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:47.359
<v Speaker 2>on the.

29
00:01:47.319 --> 00:01:50.040
<v Speaker 1>Floor, which we've been doing so.

30
00:01:50.400 --> 00:01:54.760
<v Speaker 2>Yes, exactly, Yeah that worked for so long. Eh, So I.

31
00:01:54.840 --> 00:01:57.159
<v Speaker 1>Was like with you ten. We got big exciting news

32
00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:02.439
<v Speaker 1>last night. The Mariners announced that Kate Anderson finally is

33
00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:04.079
<v Speaker 1>going to come up and try to help the team.

34
00:02:04.200 --> 00:02:06.719
<v Speaker 1>And I don't know when you got Bryce Miller, I

35
00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:09.919
<v Speaker 1>point kind of an era of eight over the last month.

36
00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:14.159
<v Speaker 1>And and poor George George, Oh, I was gonna say,

37
00:02:14.159 --> 00:02:17.560
<v Speaker 1>George spring Gerby. Oh, Kirby, George Kirby just got lit

38
00:02:17.639 --> 00:02:21.280
<v Speaker 1>up again last night. So it's and I'm taking a

39
00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:25.039
<v Speaker 1>look at the the standings. I mean, they're almost out

40
00:02:25.080 --> 00:02:27.400
<v Speaker 1>of it. To me, it's just too little, too late.

41
00:02:28.680 --> 00:02:31.840
<v Speaker 2>Well yeah, it definitely is. And I know what's going

42
00:02:31.879 --> 00:02:35.719
<v Speaker 2>on with Kirby. Kirby is still limiting the free passes.

43
00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:39.520
<v Speaker 2>Maybe it's time that George Kirby started eliminating some of

44
00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:44.319
<v Speaker 2>the hits because his his hit great. He's he's allowed

45
00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:47.919
<v Speaker 2>ten plus more than innings pitched, I believe thus far

46
00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:53.919
<v Speaker 2>into the year. And yeah, that's the only pitcher. You know,

47
00:02:54.039 --> 00:02:58.800
<v Speaker 2>Brian Wu has had moments of success, and I'm not

48
00:02:58.840 --> 00:03:01.560
<v Speaker 2>mistaken his room numbers are not that great. They created

49
00:03:01.599 --> 00:03:07.639
<v Speaker 2>Luis Castile Miller's gat. Yeah, so what you got, Logan

50
00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:11.439
<v Speaker 2>Gilbert that you can say you're satisfied with there? Or

51
00:03:11.439 --> 00:03:12.199
<v Speaker 2>who am I missing?

52
00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:16.919
<v Speaker 1>That's it. It's funny because I brought this up about

53
00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:20.879
<v Speaker 1>two months ago talking how strong the Seattle Mariner pitching was,

54
00:03:20.919 --> 00:03:22.719
<v Speaker 1>and you were the one that called me out and said,

55
00:03:23.520 --> 00:03:26.360
<v Speaker 1>is it really that strong? And I think you were

56
00:03:26.360 --> 00:03:30.000
<v Speaker 1>I think you were right. And and it's Kate Anderson's

57
00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:32.879
<v Speaker 1>obviously been the best pitcher in the minor leagues this season.

58
00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:36.800
<v Speaker 1>It's not even close. And it took the Mariners a

59
00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:40.879
<v Speaker 1>long time to realize that maybe they're starting pitching was

60
00:03:41.000 --> 00:03:42.879
<v Speaker 1>not as good as it was supposed to be coming

61
00:03:42.919 --> 00:03:46.680
<v Speaker 1>into the season, and probably trying to manage Kate Anderson's

62
00:03:46.719 --> 00:03:50.919
<v Speaker 1>service time. Blah blah blah. Here we are Timmy a

63
00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:52.639
<v Speaker 1>good chance they're going to miss the playoffs.

64
00:03:53.560 --> 00:03:56.599
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, you know, as much as I love the

65
00:03:56.680 --> 00:03:59.639
<v Speaker 2>fact that he is getting called up, don't get me wrong,

66
00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:04.120
<v Speaker 2>We're looking at five to six starts, okay, of which

67
00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:08.840
<v Speaker 2>is probably going to be a ninety pitch cap on it. Okay. Yeah,

68
00:04:08.879 --> 00:04:12.280
<v Speaker 2>he is going to marginally help your fantasy squads. He

69
00:04:12.360 --> 00:04:15.840
<v Speaker 2>will be better than what you're probably wheeling out there

70
00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:19.120
<v Speaker 2>as your number five six starter. But in the big

71
00:04:19.160 --> 00:04:22.399
<v Speaker 2>scheme of things, it would have been nice had you

72
00:04:22.480 --> 00:04:24.600
<v Speaker 2>been called up maybe a couple of weeks back.

73
00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:25.399
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

74
00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:30.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the more the merrier, and five to six starts is,

75
00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:33.199
<v Speaker 2>like I said, it's going to be nice to see. Okay,

76
00:04:33.240 --> 00:04:37.360
<v Speaker 2>it's definitely a positive, But from a fantasy point of view,

77
00:04:37.399 --> 00:04:39.120
<v Speaker 2>I just don't know how much help is there.

78
00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:44.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I'm looking at George Kirby's data and it's interesting

79
00:04:44.040 --> 00:04:47.360
<v Speaker 1>to me there's not a whole lot of difference year

80
00:04:47.560 --> 00:04:56.759
<v Speaker 1>over year except everything's getting hit just a little bit harder, so.

81
00:04:57.360 --> 00:05:01.439
<v Speaker 2>Just enough to just enough to inflate that year a

82
00:05:01.600 --> 00:05:06.519
<v Speaker 2>and low him to have some outings that aren't very good.

83
00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:12.399
<v Speaker 1>Without looking what was George Kirby's era in twenty twenty five.

84
00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:18.959
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna say four ten very.

85
00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:21.279
<v Speaker 1>You're really good at this game. You've become very good

86
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:24.560
<v Speaker 1>tim four point two one. So it's essentially the same

87
00:05:24.639 --> 00:05:27.600
<v Speaker 1>era they's got this season stuff. I'm taking a look

88
00:05:27.639 --> 00:05:29.240
<v Speaker 1>at the stuff from last year to this year, and

89
00:05:29.240 --> 00:05:32.199
<v Speaker 1>I made the comment without looking at his era looks

90
00:05:32.199 --> 00:05:35.839
<v Speaker 1>about the same. And if you go back to twenty

91
00:05:35.920 --> 00:05:39.279
<v Speaker 1>twenty four, that's when the stuff was really sharp and

92
00:05:40.360 --> 00:05:47.120
<v Speaker 1>he had Yeah, so it's nothing leaps out as obvious,

93
00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:50.519
<v Speaker 1>but maybe he's more a three point fifty to four

94
00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:54.079
<v Speaker 1>e a guy as opposed to the ace that a

95
00:05:54.120 --> 00:05:56.079
<v Speaker 1>lot of people thought he was going to be.

96
00:05:57.439 --> 00:05:59.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think you know, when you looked at you know,

97
00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:07.199
<v Speaker 2>his introduction to the league as a twenty four year old, Okay,

98
00:06:07.399 --> 00:06:11.079
<v Speaker 2>he posted a three thirty ninety RA one twenty one whip. Okay,

99
00:06:11.439 --> 00:06:13.959
<v Speaker 2>he followed it up for a great year in twenty three.

100
00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:15.759
<v Speaker 2>He got the whip down to one oh four ERA

101
00:06:16.040 --> 00:06:19.399
<v Speaker 2>three thirty five EAR three fifty three, and now we've

102
00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:23.519
<v Speaker 2>got back to back four plus ERA seasons and the

103
00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:27.639
<v Speaker 2>workload if you look at the workload in twenty three

104
00:06:27.720 --> 00:06:30.319
<v Speaker 2>and twenty four, one hundred and ninety and two thirds

105
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:34.680
<v Speaker 2>one hundred and ninety one, almost identical twenty twenty five,

106
00:06:34.959 --> 00:06:37.800
<v Speaker 2>one hundred and twenty six innings. This year one hundred

107
00:06:37.800 --> 00:06:41.639
<v Speaker 2>and forty, he'll be up around one sixty one seventy

108
00:06:41.759 --> 00:06:47.519
<v Speaker 2>somewhere in there. Probably it it's a little concerning. I

109
00:06:47.839 --> 00:06:50.879
<v Speaker 2>think we thought we had a solid number two, possibly

110
00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:55.480
<v Speaker 2>an eight after those first three years, but I think

111
00:06:55.480 --> 00:06:57.439
<v Speaker 2>we have to be downshifting moving forward.

112
00:06:58.319 --> 00:07:00.600
<v Speaker 1>His expected he are any in those same season. So

113
00:07:00.639 --> 00:07:03.600
<v Speaker 1>it's very interesting to me. This year it's four last

114
00:07:03.639 --> 00:07:07.079
<v Speaker 1>year of three eighty eight. Two years ago, three ninety

115
00:07:07.319 --> 00:07:10.199
<v Speaker 1>he had a couple three forties in there, but again

116
00:07:10.279 --> 00:07:12.319
<v Speaker 1>you averaged it out and it's a three fifty to

117
00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:14.560
<v Speaker 1>four year a guy. That's I mean, that's a solid

118
00:07:14.680 --> 00:07:17.360
<v Speaker 1>number three guy, even boarding on a low end number two.

119
00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:21.480
<v Speaker 1>But I don't think it's the guy as coming back

120
00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:24.000
<v Speaker 1>to what you just said, I don't think it's who

121
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:25.439
<v Speaker 1>he thought he was going to be when he was

122
00:07:25.480 --> 00:07:28.920
<v Speaker 1>twenty five in posting that really step up season. I

123
00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:31.720
<v Speaker 1>think he's a very good pitcher, but I think that's

124
00:07:31.759 --> 00:07:33.600
<v Speaker 1>that's it. He's not a great pitcher.

125
00:07:34.879 --> 00:07:40.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, No, the consistency factor, if you go back five starts. Okay,

126
00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:45.040
<v Speaker 2>in four four innings he lowed seven earned runs. Okay,

127
00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:47.759
<v Speaker 2>his next outing nowhere and druns. The one after that,

128
00:07:47.839 --> 00:07:50.519
<v Speaker 2>five innings against Tampa Bay one aarn drug in his

129
00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:54.000
<v Speaker 2>past two earnings against Houston and Milwaukee fiber and run

130
00:07:54.120 --> 00:08:00.360
<v Speaker 2>six earned runs. And what's interesting is if if you

131
00:08:00.519 --> 00:08:03.639
<v Speaker 2>look at those five starts, the three starts where he

132
00:08:03.720 --> 00:08:08.600
<v Speaker 2>allowed seven, five and six earned runs, uh, they were

133
00:08:08.600 --> 00:08:11.800
<v Speaker 2>all on the road. The two starts where he allowed

134
00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:17.240
<v Speaker 2>zero and one earned run. We're pitching in Seattle. Maybe

135
00:08:17.279 --> 00:08:20.879
<v Speaker 2>we've got a home road split problem happening here.

136
00:08:21.399 --> 00:08:23.639
<v Speaker 1>Which I mean Seattle is one of the best places

137
00:08:23.680 --> 00:08:26.399
<v Speaker 1>to pitch. Again, looking at his wift rates as well,

138
00:08:26.439 --> 00:08:30.079
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you want to get to some pitch that's

139
00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:32.440
<v Speaker 1>got a thirty percent wither that means it's a plus pitch.

140
00:08:32.679 --> 00:08:36.360
<v Speaker 1>Nothing is preaching that this season, whereas he's always at

141
00:08:36.399 --> 00:08:39.960
<v Speaker 1>that four seamer that had a thirty percent rate is

142
00:08:40.000 --> 00:08:42.159
<v Speaker 1>sweeper last year at a thirty one percent. This year

143
00:08:42.200 --> 00:08:44.639
<v Speaker 1>it's twenty one and twenty five. I mean, very good,

144
00:08:44.720 --> 00:08:50.039
<v Speaker 1>but stuff's not quite as as sharp. And you know

145
00:08:50.200 --> 00:08:52.919
<v Speaker 1>the problems of the road. I mean, you roll it

146
00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:56.039
<v Speaker 1>all up together and I think we beat this course enough,

147
00:08:56.120 --> 00:08:58.360
<v Speaker 1>but he is more of a three than a two.

148
00:08:59.639 --> 00:09:01.919
<v Speaker 2>I think so too. And if you well, what I'm

149
00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:06.159
<v Speaker 2>finding alarming, And again about the last five starts, what

150
00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:11.240
<v Speaker 2>would you say his in those five starts his highest

151
00:09:11.240 --> 00:09:15.639
<v Speaker 2>strikeout rate was in those five games number struck.

152
00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:21.639
<v Speaker 1>Six three really yeah against threes.

153
00:09:21.480 --> 00:09:27.159
<v Speaker 2>And two two's and the five starts before that six, seven, seven, five, five, ten.

154
00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:33.200
<v Speaker 2>Maybe maybe he's tiring good beating into that and that's

155
00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:35.440
<v Speaker 2>not good for a picture. Who's what twenty eight?

156
00:09:36.360 --> 00:09:40.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and your fantasy manager, you're still throwing him out there.

157
00:09:40.279 --> 00:09:43.559
<v Speaker 1>That's the problem. So you're just taking it on the chin.

158
00:09:45.240 --> 00:09:49.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to I'm going to start, uh, I'm going

159
00:09:49.919 --> 00:09:53.000
<v Speaker 2>to sit him on the road down the stretch in

160
00:09:53.120 --> 00:09:56.039
<v Speaker 2>leagues where I'm in a really close ear ra you

161
00:09:56.039 --> 00:09:59.519
<v Speaker 2>know ear ra situation. I'm I'm going to sit him

162
00:09:59.519 --> 00:09:59.960
<v Speaker 2>on the road.

163
00:10:01.600 --> 00:10:04.360
<v Speaker 1>Well, this is a perfect setup for my first topic,

164
00:10:04.679 --> 00:10:09.000
<v Speaker 1>and that is mister Paul's skiings. Another battleling on Wednesday

165
00:10:09.039 --> 00:10:11.039
<v Speaker 1>four walks three and runs in four and a third

166
00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:14.240
<v Speaker 1>innings against the Tigers. This isn't the Doctors, this is

167
00:10:14.360 --> 00:10:15.120
<v Speaker 1>the Tigers.

168
00:10:15.960 --> 00:10:16.480
<v Speaker 2>Ylo.

169
00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:21.399
<v Speaker 1>His velocity was season average. Who would you get would

170
00:10:21.480 --> 00:10:25.360
<v Speaker 1>you consider sitting him for his next start? Since July first, Timmy,

171
00:10:25.360 --> 00:10:28.480
<v Speaker 1>he's posted a five to sixty seventy ear A four

172
00:10:28.519 --> 00:10:31.799
<v Speaker 1>walks per innings. And then I've given you. Let me

173
00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:33.559
<v Speaker 1>give you a couple of cops, because I did some

174
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:37.759
<v Speaker 1>research on this for the season, five inning Freddy down

175
00:10:37.799 --> 00:10:40.360
<v Speaker 1>to four inning Freddy. It's a five twenty seven e

176
00:10:40.440 --> 00:10:42.759
<v Speaker 1>Arra and he's walking three point seven per nine. That's

177
00:10:42.759 --> 00:10:46.600
<v Speaker 1>a pretty close comp Aaron Nola a five to twelve

178
00:10:46.679 --> 00:10:50.240
<v Speaker 1>vra in walking three per nine. You want it over

179
00:10:50.240 --> 00:10:53.559
<v Speaker 1>that same time frame of July first, Dean Kramer almost

180
00:10:53.559 --> 00:10:57.360
<v Speaker 1>exactly the same type of stat line as is Kumber Rocker,

181
00:10:57.480 --> 00:11:00.679
<v Speaker 1>as is fram Ra Valdez. That's where Paul's skeens has

182
00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:04.519
<v Speaker 1>been performing. That those are his peers that he's been

183
00:11:04.559 --> 00:11:08.000
<v Speaker 1>performing at so and those guys you're you're not starting

184
00:11:08.120 --> 00:11:13.519
<v Speaker 1>Dean Kramer every start? Would you be starting Paul Skins

185
00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:14.240
<v Speaker 1>every time? Now?

186
00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:21.559
<v Speaker 2>Well, looking at the back, I'd be looking at matchups.

187
00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:25.320
<v Speaker 2>It's at that stage for me where you know, hey,

188
00:11:25.759 --> 00:11:28.519
<v Speaker 2>it's it's nice to say, Okay, he's going to bounce back,

189
00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:30.559
<v Speaker 2>but we're down to the final five six starts of

190
00:11:30.559 --> 00:11:34.080
<v Speaker 2>the year. Okay, he's already done the damage that has

191
00:11:34.159 --> 00:11:40.600
<v Speaker 2>caused you, in all likelihood to see your ear and

192
00:11:40.679 --> 00:11:43.919
<v Speaker 2>whip inflated over the past two months to the point

193
00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:49.440
<v Speaker 2>where it's costing it's costing you a title. Are you

194
00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:52.159
<v Speaker 2>going to take again? It depends on how close you

195
00:11:52.200 --> 00:11:55.960
<v Speaker 2>are in the era A category are you? Are you

196
00:11:55.960 --> 00:11:57.960
<v Speaker 2>going to play around and take a chance. I don't

197
00:11:57.960 --> 00:12:00.799
<v Speaker 2>know he's he's at the stage for me where if

198
00:12:00.840 --> 00:12:05.080
<v Speaker 2>I had him anywhere I'd be, I'd be playing matchups.

199
00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:08.679
<v Speaker 2>And if it's not a favorable matchup, I probably said them,

200
00:12:08.679 --> 00:12:10.720
<v Speaker 2>if it's if it's got the potential to cost me

201
00:12:10.759 --> 00:12:13.399
<v Speaker 2>even more points in that year A category.

202
00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:17.840
<v Speaker 1>His next two starts at San Diego and then home

203
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:19.600
<v Speaker 1>against San Francisco.

204
00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:23.519
<v Speaker 2>What do you do, sid start?

205
00:12:25.200 --> 00:12:27.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? You got to start them against the giants.

206
00:12:27.080 --> 00:12:30.799
<v Speaker 2>You have to, Yeah, you have to? Yes? Uh San Diego,

207
00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:33.960
<v Speaker 2>now that Fernando Tatis has found his way out of

208
00:12:34.000 --> 00:12:39.200
<v Speaker 2>his early season power power slump, Uh No, I don't

209
00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:44.639
<v Speaker 2>Between Tetiz Junior and Meryll No, I don't think. I

210
00:12:45.039 --> 00:12:47.639
<v Speaker 2>don't think i'd want that. I might want to play

211
00:12:47.639 --> 00:12:49.759
<v Speaker 2>that game in San Diego and.

212
00:12:49.879 --> 00:12:53.080
<v Speaker 1>Kind of bummed that tatist Junior is uh finding his

213
00:12:53.159 --> 00:12:55.720
<v Speaker 1>stride because I was hoping to get him cheap next season.

214
00:12:55.799 --> 00:12:58.279
<v Speaker 1>I was, I was slump.

215
00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:03.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well, cheap is going to be a very relative term.

216
00:13:03.519 --> 00:13:07.639
<v Speaker 2>You Yeah, you might, you might get him thirteenth instead

217
00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:08.360
<v Speaker 2>of eleventh.

218
00:13:09.200 --> 00:13:13.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, for sure, for sure. So let's so we've

219
00:13:13.039 --> 00:13:16.320
<v Speaker 1>we've we've beat up really beat up George Kirby, kind

220
00:13:16.320 --> 00:13:20.279
<v Speaker 1>of beat up Paul Skins. Let's draft the top ten

221
00:13:20.360 --> 00:13:21.960
<v Speaker 1>pitchers off the board next season.

222
00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:27.519
<v Speaker 2>Sounds okay that that sounds impossible, but yeah, it should

223
00:13:27.519 --> 00:13:27.879
<v Speaker 2>be fun.

224
00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:29.399
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to hold you in any of the

225
00:13:29.519 --> 00:13:32.879
<v Speaker 1>guesses but or any of the picks here. So do

226
00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:34.559
<v Speaker 1>you want to go first? You want me to go first?

227
00:13:36.440 --> 00:13:40.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, it makes no difference to me. Whoever, I don't

228
00:13:40.240 --> 00:13:44.039
<v Speaker 2>pick you will pick so, and vice versa. So that's

229
00:13:44.039 --> 00:13:46.240
<v Speaker 2>what I'm figurering. Anyways, I figure we got to.

230
00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:48.120
<v Speaker 1>I just want to see. I want to see if

231
00:13:48.159 --> 00:13:50.879
<v Speaker 1>Paul Skeens goes number. I want to see if he

232
00:13:50.919 --> 00:13:54.120
<v Speaker 1>goes in the top ten. So we'll see. I think

233
00:13:54.159 --> 00:13:55.840
<v Speaker 1>the first couple are easy. I know you're going to

234
00:13:55.879 --> 00:13:58.120
<v Speaker 1>take Yamamoto, so I'm going to leave that for you.

235
00:13:58.200 --> 00:14:04.639
<v Speaker 2>No, actually, I'm not really Yeah.

236
00:14:04.639 --> 00:14:08.559
<v Speaker 1>Nine twenty East Coast time, Tim has not taken al

237
00:14:08.720 --> 00:14:13.679
<v Speaker 1>moto as as the number one pitcher off the board. Look,

238
00:14:13.720 --> 00:14:16.720
<v Speaker 1>I have reservations about this. I think we all do.

239
00:14:17.120 --> 00:14:20.159
<v Speaker 1>Can Jacob miss Jacob Mazerowski's arm literally going to go

240
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:25.159
<v Speaker 1>flying off his body one day? It's entirely possible, Tim,

241
00:14:25.440 --> 00:14:30.240
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, he's just been ridiculous. And I don't even

242
00:14:30.279 --> 00:14:34.039
<v Speaker 1>think Paul Skeen's last year was this good. I mean,

243
00:14:34.080 --> 00:14:37.440
<v Speaker 1>it's twelve wins, one hundred and thirty nine innings pitch,

244
00:14:37.919 --> 00:14:41.759
<v Speaker 1>he's got a thirteen point six strikeout per nine walking

245
00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:45.639
<v Speaker 1>to he throws one hundred miles an hour, averaging one

246
00:14:45.759 --> 00:14:49.200
<v Speaker 1>seventy five year and expect at one ninety three. So

247
00:14:49.360 --> 00:14:53.200
<v Speaker 1>the data saying it's all real, I'm going Jacob Mizowski.

248
00:14:54.120 --> 00:14:57.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah that's and yeah, I got no brothers with that.

249
00:14:58.480 --> 00:15:02.879
<v Speaker 2>One by one two is either Schoogle or one mister

250
00:15:02.960 --> 00:15:06.080
<v Speaker 2>Oski two or vice versa. So I'm I'm I'm looking

251
00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:09.399
<v Speaker 2>at Schoogle with the number two picks and I actually

252
00:15:09.519 --> 00:15:12.039
<v Speaker 2>penciled in his team is La D Is that correct?

253
00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:14.480
<v Speaker 1>For next season?

254
00:15:15.600 --> 00:15:15.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

255
00:15:15.879 --> 00:15:18.720
<v Speaker 1>Can can they really add another four or five hundred

256
00:15:18.759 --> 00:15:19.639
<v Speaker 1>million dollar picture.

257
00:15:21.600 --> 00:15:23.480
<v Speaker 2>They probably can't, but they probably will.

258
00:15:25.000 --> 00:15:28.399
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, he's not he's not great since he's been

259
00:15:28.480 --> 00:15:32.159
<v Speaker 1>with If I guess if he wins a title, then uh,

260
00:15:32.240 --> 00:15:33.960
<v Speaker 1>then maybe the Dodgers will want to have him. But

261
00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:36.200
<v Speaker 1>if he doesn't, I don't know, We'll have to see.

262
00:15:37.440 --> 00:15:40.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so I'm going with Schooble a's number two. I

263
00:15:42.039 --> 00:15:45.720
<v Speaker 2>looked at the rest of the I think even a

264
00:15:47.200 --> 00:15:52.480
<v Speaker 2>slightly above average Schoogle is it is a good bet

265
00:15:52.519 --> 00:15:54.759
<v Speaker 2>to to return the investment.

266
00:15:55.559 --> 00:15:58.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I mean, you could still argue because of the

267
00:15:58.679 --> 00:16:04.240
<v Speaker 1>consistency and the track record, he should be the number

268
00:16:04.279 --> 00:16:06.519
<v Speaker 1>one guy. But I mean, I just don't think you

269
00:16:06.559 --> 00:16:09.440
<v Speaker 1>can take anybody over Jacob Mazarowski at the moment. But

270
00:16:10.200 --> 00:16:12.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean Scooble is boring and good.

271
00:16:13.120 --> 00:16:17.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and I think we're going to see a hole different.

272
00:16:18.759 --> 00:16:22.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't think we're going to see more than five

273
00:16:22.759 --> 00:16:24.879
<v Speaker 2>pitchers go off the board in the first two rounds.

274
00:16:24.960 --> 00:16:27.639
<v Speaker 2>I was that maybe six. But we're not going to

275
00:16:27.679 --> 00:16:32.840
<v Speaker 2>see the rush to grab an ace because I think

276
00:16:32.960 --> 00:16:36.840
<v Speaker 2>our definition of an ace is changing even as we speak.

277
00:16:38.279 --> 00:16:41.519
<v Speaker 1>I'd love to fish down with Braxton Ashcraft that kind

278
00:16:41.559 --> 00:16:45.200
<v Speaker 1>of area. I just I think that's where the value

279
00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:50.159
<v Speaker 1>is going to be. You know, that's that's more low wind.

280
00:16:50.279 --> 00:16:52.759
<v Speaker 1>That's probably a number two starter. I think there could

281
00:16:52.840 --> 00:16:56.120
<v Speaker 1>be some value in these number two guys sitting there.

282
00:16:57.039 --> 00:17:02.559
<v Speaker 2>So I think both three number or two's equals better

283
00:17:02.639 --> 00:17:04.680
<v Speaker 2>than two number ones.

284
00:17:05.759 --> 00:17:09.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I just I struggle, Like Parker Mesic, I'm looking

285
00:17:09.880 --> 00:17:12.599
<v Speaker 1>at uh, you know, by war and Parker Messick's the

286
00:17:12.640 --> 00:17:15.319
<v Speaker 1>eight best picture in baseball. I'm gonna get it. It's

287
00:17:15.319 --> 00:17:20.200
<v Speaker 1>been great. I really struggle with, you know, taking Parker

288
00:17:20.279 --> 00:17:23.000
<v Speaker 1>Mesic as my ACE. I just, I mean, I'm much

289
00:17:23.079 --> 00:17:26.480
<v Speaker 1>rather Chase Burns or a Dylan see somebody that's a

290
00:17:27.079 --> 00:17:30.839
<v Speaker 1>flamethrower than the Parker Messick. But he'll probably be at

291
00:17:30.839 --> 00:17:31.519
<v Speaker 1>somebody's ace.

292
00:17:32.519 --> 00:17:36.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, all right to me, I'm a definition definition of

293
00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:39.240
<v Speaker 2>ace has changed very much. I think in the past year.

294
00:17:39.640 --> 00:17:42.640
<v Speaker 1>It's true. Look, I think the safe the safe pick

295
00:17:42.680 --> 00:17:49.279
<v Speaker 1>here is Christopher Sanchez as right, and yeah, but uh

296
00:17:49.640 --> 00:17:52.039
<v Speaker 1>all right, I'm gonna go should I go Cam Schlitzler

297
00:17:52.119 --> 00:17:57.079
<v Speaker 1>or Christopher Sanchez. I gotta do Christopher's chances. I gotta

298
00:17:57.079 --> 00:17:59.480
<v Speaker 1>be conservative here. I mean, obviously he's just been money.

299
00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:04.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Ave, he's had a very very good year and

300
00:18:04.160 --> 00:18:10.359
<v Speaker 2>you know that that's scoreless streak run. Yeah, it's yeah, No,

301
00:18:10.559 --> 00:18:13.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't have I don't have any problems at all

302
00:18:13.960 --> 00:18:16.759
<v Speaker 2>with Christopher Sanchez as the number three off the board.

303
00:18:17.279 --> 00:18:20.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean expected the array with Camp Schlitzler's two

304
00:18:20.920 --> 00:18:27.079
<v Speaker 1>ninety three with Sanchez, and Schlitzer's actually struck out a

305
00:18:27.079 --> 00:18:30.519
<v Speaker 1>few more guys. I mean, but I mean Sanchez is

306
00:18:30.559 --> 00:18:35.160
<v Speaker 1>just again the track record there. So I'm going Camp.

307
00:18:35.440 --> 00:18:37.799
<v Speaker 1>I'm going Christopher Sanchez, you're on the close.

308
00:18:39.079 --> 00:18:42.720
<v Speaker 2>You'll get your shot at Camp Schlitzler. Because at number four,

309
00:18:44.240 --> 00:18:48.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm going Yama Moto your guy. Well, I'm going over

310
00:18:51.319 --> 00:18:54.880
<v Speaker 2>again the same argument we used for Sanchez, I'm using

311
00:18:54.920 --> 00:18:59.480
<v Speaker 2>for Yama Moto versus Schlitzler. Okay, I just think Yama

312
00:18:59.519 --> 00:19:05.200
<v Speaker 2>Moto as the proven track record, good team. You know,

313
00:19:06.160 --> 00:19:09.359
<v Speaker 2>the strikeouts could be a little bit better from Yamamoto,

314
00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:11.839
<v Speaker 2>but it's off set by a point eight nine whip

315
00:19:12.440 --> 00:19:15.079
<v Speaker 2>and an ERA under three we've now seen for what

316
00:19:16.000 --> 00:19:20.839
<v Speaker 2>two full seasons. Yeah, it's yeah, I have a hard Hey,

317
00:19:21.279 --> 00:19:23.519
<v Speaker 2>I get it if you if you want to look at,

318
00:19:24.400 --> 00:19:26.839
<v Speaker 2>you know, the Yankees starter. But for me, I'm gonna

319
00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:28.680
<v Speaker 2>take a little bit of a safer path and go

320
00:19:28.799 --> 00:19:31.160
<v Speaker 2>with Yama Moto at number.

321
00:19:31.000 --> 00:19:34.559
<v Speaker 1>Four to say you, Schlitzler's got a point nine to

322
00:19:34.640 --> 00:19:40.880
<v Speaker 1>four whip, so not much difference there. I mean, I look,

323
00:19:41.200 --> 00:19:48.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm debating. I'm debating between Schlitler, Schlitzler, and Chase Burns,

324
00:19:49.039 --> 00:19:52.880
<v Speaker 1>even though Chase Burns is I just think the upside

325
00:19:52.920 --> 00:19:55.759
<v Speaker 1>with Chase Burns, I don't think he has hit his

326
00:19:55.920 --> 00:19:59.599
<v Speaker 1>full potential yet. He's still walking a few too many guys.

327
00:19:59.640 --> 00:20:03.960
<v Speaker 1>But I just think it's all there. He's won fourteen games.

328
00:20:04.160 --> 00:20:07.000
<v Speaker 1>I think Sanchez has won sixteen, so he leads the

329
00:20:07.079 --> 00:20:10.519
<v Speaker 1>major leagues to maybe Foster Griffin's got fifteen or something

330
00:20:10.559 --> 00:20:15.039
<v Speaker 1>like that. But I'm gonna go with Schlittler. I'm gonna take, okay,

331
00:20:15.400 --> 00:20:17.839
<v Speaker 1>the obvious one here and go Slittler.

332
00:20:18.839 --> 00:20:23.680
<v Speaker 2>TiO, Okay, well you're gonna get You're gonna get a

333
00:20:23.799 --> 00:20:28.839
<v Speaker 2>chance to to get your guy and Chase Burns because

334
00:20:29.119 --> 00:20:32.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm going I'm going safe and a little bit boring

335
00:20:32.240 --> 00:20:35.880
<v Speaker 2>with this one. But Dylan ceases now put together, was

336
00:20:35.880 --> 00:20:39.839
<v Speaker 2>it seventeen two hundred strikeout seasons in a row? Something

337
00:20:39.880 --> 00:20:43.160
<v Speaker 2>silly likes? You know, I think it's five years now,

338
00:20:43.279 --> 00:20:46.200
<v Speaker 2>two hundred strikeouts in a row. I don't see any

339
00:20:46.279 --> 00:20:50.000
<v Speaker 2>reason why that should change hitting into next year. Uh,

340
00:20:51.799 --> 00:20:56.039
<v Speaker 2>he's liking Toronto. Toronto's liking him. So as much as

341
00:20:56.079 --> 00:21:00.640
<v Speaker 2>I love Chase Burns, I think Dylan is just a

342
00:21:00.680 --> 00:21:02.519
<v Speaker 2>safer pick with his.

343
00:21:03.240 --> 00:21:06.519
<v Speaker 1>Which is weird because he's always been a bit volatile.

344
00:21:06.559 --> 00:21:08.799
<v Speaker 1>But you know, the guy rarely gets hurt.

345
00:21:09.200 --> 00:21:12.960
<v Speaker 2>He just because yeah, he just keeps Yeah, And you

346
00:21:12.960 --> 00:21:14.960
<v Speaker 2>know what, there's something to be said for somebody when

347
00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:20.359
<v Speaker 2>you look at this year's top four picks, five picks

348
00:21:20.440 --> 00:21:23.599
<v Speaker 2>in the pitching department, how many of them don't have

349
00:21:24.480 --> 00:21:31.000
<v Speaker 2>injury issues? Sanchez, Jamamoto, Mizerowski. But that's that could be

350
00:21:31.039 --> 00:21:33.640
<v Speaker 2>a time bomb, or it could prove us wrong, like

351
00:21:33.720 --> 00:21:36.599
<v Speaker 2>Mason Miller. Yeah, there's question marks with all these guys.

352
00:21:36.680 --> 00:21:38.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm taking a little bit of a safer approach, but

353
00:21:39.440 --> 00:21:42.920
<v Speaker 2>that doesn't mean it's a right approach. It's just easy

354
00:21:42.920 --> 00:21:43.359
<v Speaker 2>to argue.

355
00:21:43.799 --> 00:21:46.240
<v Speaker 1>Starting in twenty twenty one, one hundred and sixty five

356
00:21:46.279 --> 00:21:49.440
<v Speaker 1>innings up to twenty twenty five hundred and sixty eight,

357
00:21:49.480 --> 00:21:52.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean he's been Dylan case has been one hundred

358
00:21:52.759 --> 00:21:55.599
<v Speaker 1>and sixty to one hundred and ninety innings for the

359
00:21:55.680 --> 00:21:57.680
<v Speaker 1>last five years, So he's going to be assume he

360
00:21:57.680 --> 00:21:59.640
<v Speaker 1>doesn't get hurt. He's going to be right there this season.

361
00:21:59.880 --> 00:22:00.759
<v Speaker 1>I mean there's value.

362
00:22:00.839 --> 00:22:03.640
<v Speaker 2>Well yeah, yeah, I think so.

363
00:22:03.880 --> 00:22:09.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I think the upside is with Chase Burns. I

364
00:22:09.519 --> 00:22:12.640
<v Speaker 1>think the stuff is just flat out nasty. I mean,

365
00:22:12.680 --> 00:22:16.039
<v Speaker 1>I wish he played for a better team, but he doesn't.

366
00:22:16.720 --> 00:22:18.960
<v Speaker 1>He is. It is what it is. So I'm going

367
00:22:19.079 --> 00:22:20.200
<v Speaker 1>Chase Burns.

368
00:22:21.079 --> 00:22:25.839
<v Speaker 2>Okay, yeah, what do you think? I I guess my

369
00:22:26.000 --> 00:22:29.640
<v Speaker 2>question to you would be, because I know you're all

370
00:22:29.680 --> 00:22:31.880
<v Speaker 2>over this guy and you love him in a big way,

371
00:22:32.279 --> 00:22:35.759
<v Speaker 2>what's the upside difference between Chase Burns and Urie Perez.

372
00:22:38.039 --> 00:22:42.839
<v Speaker 1>Oh, well, you can't take Eurie Perez because you you know,

373
00:22:43.079 --> 00:22:44.160
<v Speaker 1>you all over him.

374
00:22:45.559 --> 00:22:49.319
<v Speaker 2>That's all. That's all. That's old newsle Rich. That was

375
00:22:49.440 --> 00:22:50.559
<v Speaker 2>like eons.

376
00:22:54.000 --> 00:22:57.240
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, no, no, you can't take them from me. Look,

377
00:22:57.319 --> 00:23:00.720
<v Speaker 1>I think that of you. I'm asking you.

378
00:23:00.799 --> 00:23:01.640
<v Speaker 2>I think you could.

379
00:23:01.480 --> 00:23:04.720
<v Speaker 1>Get I love your I think you get Uri Peress

380
00:23:04.759 --> 00:23:06.640
<v Speaker 1>a little bit later than Chase Burns.

381
00:23:06.880 --> 00:23:10.240
<v Speaker 2>No, yes, I I have a tendency to agree, but

382
00:23:10.319 --> 00:23:13.279
<v Speaker 2>I was I was looking at it, not from not

383
00:23:13.400 --> 00:23:15.720
<v Speaker 2>from my perspective. I'm not taking I'm not going to

384
00:23:15.759 --> 00:23:18.079
<v Speaker 2>take him. I've got somebody else in mind. I just

385
00:23:18.119 --> 00:23:21.720
<v Speaker 2>wanted to throw out to you, what is the difference

386
00:23:21.880 --> 00:23:26.400
<v Speaker 2>right now between Chase Burns and Uri Perez in your mind? Like,

387
00:23:26.680 --> 00:23:29.480
<v Speaker 2>why would you take Perez ahead of Perez?

388
00:23:31.599 --> 00:23:35.480
<v Speaker 1>Why would I take Burns ahead, take Press ahead of pres?

389
00:23:36.119 --> 00:23:38.319
<v Speaker 2>Okay, yeah, sorry, I'm gonna take.

390
00:23:38.519 --> 00:23:43.240
<v Speaker 1>I would I think the place for a better team.

391
00:23:43.799 --> 00:23:45.480
<v Speaker 1>Uh team, I think it's going to score a few

392
00:23:45.519 --> 00:23:51.480
<v Speaker 1>more runs. Okay, Then again, Miami is a better pitching environment,

393
00:23:51.599 --> 00:23:56.920
<v Speaker 1>so you can argue that I'm taking a look as expected.

394
00:23:56.960 --> 00:24:00.519
<v Speaker 1>The array of of Uri Perez is three sixty, is

395
00:24:00.559 --> 00:24:04.400
<v Speaker 1>a little less with Chase Burns. But I think they're

396
00:24:04.599 --> 00:24:09.039
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. To me, I think they're both really good, right.

397
00:24:09.400 --> 00:24:11.640
<v Speaker 2>I just wanted to get your your thoughts on the

398
00:24:11.680 --> 00:24:14.319
<v Speaker 2>two of them going like head to head sort of thing.

399
00:24:14.359 --> 00:24:18.759
<v Speaker 1>Eh, I think they're very close. You can argue gury

400
00:24:18.799 --> 00:24:23.200
<v Speaker 1>Pez has got a broader arsenal, got a few more

401
00:24:23.240 --> 00:24:26.359
<v Speaker 1>weapons to throw at it. He can also argue that

402
00:24:27.119 --> 00:24:32.160
<v Speaker 1>he's still he has just started to come back from

403
00:24:32.160 --> 00:24:34.599
<v Speaker 1>Tommy John surgery. I think you're finally starting to see

404
00:24:34.640 --> 00:24:38.920
<v Speaker 1>here in the second half, the guy exploding and he's

405
00:24:39.000 --> 00:24:42.519
<v Speaker 1>twenty three and what a year younger than Chase Burns.

406
00:24:42.920 --> 00:24:43.960
<v Speaker 1>I think you're splitting hairs.

407
00:24:44.039 --> 00:24:47.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, okay, you know, I was just curious.

408
00:24:47.480 --> 00:24:49.400
<v Speaker 1>I think if you put them out, if they were

409
00:24:49.440 --> 00:24:52.960
<v Speaker 1>free agents, one would get three hundred and fifty million

410
00:24:53.000 --> 00:24:55.160
<v Speaker 1>dollars in the other get three thirty.

411
00:24:55.640 --> 00:25:00.799
<v Speaker 2>It's like, okay, yeah, now that's cool. I'm not taking

412
00:25:00.920 --> 00:25:01.640
<v Speaker 2>Urie Brezo.

413
00:25:02.119 --> 00:25:04.200
<v Speaker 1>I probably wouldn't take him quite yet, because I think

414
00:25:04.200 --> 00:25:09.279
<v Speaker 1>you can get him on. I said one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, Tim,

415
00:25:09.319 --> 00:25:10.079
<v Speaker 1>you're on the clock.

416
00:25:11.079 --> 00:25:14.759
<v Speaker 2>Well, okay, I'm gonna I'm gonna continue my role of

417
00:25:14.920 --> 00:25:18.799
<v Speaker 2>boredom here and safe what I perceived to be safe picks.

418
00:25:19.079 --> 00:25:20.720
<v Speaker 2>At number eight, I'm going Garrett Cole.

419
00:25:22.279 --> 00:25:22.599
<v Speaker 3>Damn.

420
00:25:24.079 --> 00:25:26.200
<v Speaker 1>I was hoping he would fall to me. You know that,

421
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:28.960
<v Speaker 1>I think you know, as we got into this season,

422
00:25:29.279 --> 00:25:32.039
<v Speaker 1>I took Garrett Cole in a couple of leagues, and

423
00:25:32.720 --> 00:25:35.640
<v Speaker 1>I knew it was a bit of a dicey pick,

424
00:25:37.000 --> 00:25:40.480
<v Speaker 1>just coming back, but he had a couple of wobbly

425
00:25:40.839 --> 00:25:45.160
<v Speaker 1>first outings and still pitched well. He looks like vintage

426
00:25:45.240 --> 00:25:47.119
<v Speaker 1>Garrett Cole. Over the last month.

427
00:25:47.920 --> 00:25:51.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he has. He's been rocking the cats. Boh, yeah, no,

428
00:25:51.559 --> 00:25:55.440
<v Speaker 2>he's he's been looking like the Garrett Cole of war Old.

429
00:25:55.519 --> 00:25:59.279
<v Speaker 2>I think I think you know the first however many

430
00:25:59.359 --> 00:26:02.680
<v Speaker 2>starts were he was hitting miss Well, that's coming back

431
00:26:02.680 --> 00:26:05.839
<v Speaker 2>from Tommy John, I think, climatizing himself to the game,

432
00:26:06.000 --> 00:26:11.960
<v Speaker 2>settling in knocking the rust off. But lately, if I

433
00:26:12.079 --> 00:26:14.440
<v Speaker 2>said to you right now that Garrett Cole is going

434
00:26:14.480 --> 00:26:19.240
<v Speaker 2>to be the best pitcher in baseball next year, would

435
00:26:19.240 --> 00:26:24.400
<v Speaker 2>you say I am totally insane, a little insane, or

436
00:26:24.559 --> 00:26:25.559
<v Speaker 2>it's a possibility.

437
00:26:25.880 --> 00:26:27.759
<v Speaker 1>Oh, I definitely think it's a possibility. I don't think

438
00:26:27.759 --> 00:26:32.640
<v Speaker 1>you're insane at all. Is it likely? No? But I

439
00:26:32.920 --> 00:26:37.039
<v Speaker 1>mean I look if I think it's almost guaranteed as

440
00:26:37.079 --> 00:26:40.119
<v Speaker 1>the top unless he gets hurt, a top ten pitcher,

441
00:26:40.559 --> 00:26:43.880
<v Speaker 1>and probably very likely he's a top five pitch pitcher.

442
00:26:44.279 --> 00:26:49.640
<v Speaker 1>So if Jacob, if Jacob Miserowski doesn't get hurt, he's

443
00:26:49.680 --> 00:26:50.599
<v Speaker 1>going to be the best picture.

444
00:26:51.920 --> 00:26:53.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah you think that guy? I agree.

445
00:26:54.720 --> 00:26:57.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean he's throwing stuff that nobody's seen before. I mean,

446
00:26:57.559 --> 00:27:02.079
<v Speaker 1>until something happens, I think, yeah, he's a bit of

447
00:27:02.119 --> 00:27:03.200
<v Speaker 1>a unicorn right now.

448
00:27:04.079 --> 00:27:06.519
<v Speaker 2>How many had pictures on this list have three hundred

449
00:27:06.559 --> 00:27:08.759
<v Speaker 2>strikeo potential in Mizerowski.

450
00:27:09.359 --> 00:27:11.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they just don't. Yeah, they don't pitch.

451
00:27:11.720 --> 00:27:14.960
<v Speaker 2>Enough to have that right exactly. Yep.

452
00:27:16.759 --> 00:27:19.920
<v Speaker 1>Okay, cool, all right, I'm going I'm going boring here.

453
00:27:21.359 --> 00:27:21.680
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

454
00:27:23.039 --> 00:27:24.880
<v Speaker 1>I know this guy said he was going to retire.

455
00:27:25.960 --> 00:27:28.000
<v Speaker 1>I think now he's saying he will not. I'm looking

456
00:27:28.000 --> 00:27:31.000
<v Speaker 1>at stat cast page. It's all red and that is

457
00:27:31.119 --> 00:27:36.920
<v Speaker 1>Zach Wheeler. Yeah, the velocity is down a smidge ninety

458
00:27:36.960 --> 00:27:40.319
<v Speaker 1>six one ninety five two, but I mean the split

459
00:27:40.400 --> 00:27:44.440
<v Speaker 1>finger is ridiculous forty six percent with rate still in

460
00:27:44.519 --> 00:27:48.880
<v Speaker 1>a sinker even more. I mean, Zach Wheeler, what's his

461
00:27:49.000 --> 00:27:51.640
<v Speaker 1>expected era is two seventy nine on a two ninety

462
00:27:51.720 --> 00:27:53.079
<v Speaker 1>two era. I mean, come on.

463
00:27:53.599 --> 00:28:00.759
<v Speaker 2>Exactly, Yeah, yeah, no, no problems at all. You know,

464
00:28:00.920 --> 00:28:02.039
<v Speaker 2>I got a problem.

465
00:28:02.279 --> 00:28:04.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, your tenth guy, and then we're going to take

466
00:28:04.079 --> 00:28:07.400
<v Speaker 1>a break and come back. And I want a guy

467
00:28:07.480 --> 00:28:10.039
<v Speaker 1>that is not the top ten, not even in the

468
00:28:10.079 --> 00:28:13.799
<v Speaker 1>top twenty, that you think is going to turn into

469
00:28:13.839 --> 00:28:16.240
<v Speaker 1>a guy that's going to be really good next season.

470
00:28:16.319 --> 00:28:17.920
<v Speaker 1>So I'm gonna throw that out. I didn't put it

471
00:28:17.920 --> 00:28:23.359
<v Speaker 1>in the notes. So yeah, so like even more miserable.

472
00:28:24.279 --> 00:28:30.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, thank you. Yes, looking at my tenth guy. Okay, well,

473
00:28:30.960 --> 00:28:35.279
<v Speaker 2>I can't pick Urie Perez because you're not. But no,

474
00:28:35.680 --> 00:28:38.440
<v Speaker 2>and you know what, that narrows it down to two

475
00:28:38.599 --> 00:28:43.119
<v Speaker 2>pictures for me, and I'm going to go. I don't

476
00:28:43.160 --> 00:28:46.440
<v Speaker 2>know if this is a safe pick or or not,

477
00:28:47.480 --> 00:28:51.559
<v Speaker 2>but everything we've seen from Peyton Tolli this year has

478
00:28:51.839 --> 00:28:54.759
<v Speaker 2>been really, really good, and I think it's going to

479
00:28:54.880 --> 00:29:01.680
<v Speaker 2>get better. I'm gonna go with Peyton over Paul and

480
00:29:01.880 --> 00:29:04.480
<v Speaker 2>go with Tolly in Boston as my number ten.

481
00:29:04.920 --> 00:29:06.799
<v Speaker 1>I think it's a great call. That would have been

482
00:29:06.839 --> 00:29:09.559
<v Speaker 1>my guy that I think you get him a little

483
00:29:09.599 --> 00:29:11.200
<v Speaker 1>bit later, but that would have been one of the

484
00:29:11.200 --> 00:29:15.400
<v Speaker 1>guys I was considering. He has ranked sixteenth over the

485
00:29:15.480 --> 00:29:18.920
<v Speaker 1>last couple of months in terms of what he's been doing.

486
00:29:19.000 --> 00:29:23.920
<v Speaker 1>So he's been he's been good. Tim I, you know,

487
00:29:24.519 --> 00:29:26.079
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what else to say. I mean, that

488
00:29:26.079 --> 00:29:28.960
<v Speaker 1>guy has I thought he would be better than Condlee

489
00:29:28.960 --> 00:29:31.359
<v Speaker 1>early he is. He's got big stuff.

490
00:29:32.720 --> 00:29:39.279
<v Speaker 2>Yep. Yeah, everything I'm seeing I like And as much

491
00:29:39.400 --> 00:29:42.799
<v Speaker 2>as scheme should be the pick, somewhere in there, I.

492
00:29:42.720 --> 00:29:45.119
<v Speaker 1>Think, do you think he's still a top ten guy?

493
00:29:46.400 --> 00:29:49.720
<v Speaker 2>I The Straycoats indicated he's a top ten the year

494
00:29:49.799 --> 00:29:52.920
<v Speaker 2>A and Whip don't say the same story. I think

495
00:29:52.960 --> 00:29:57.400
<v Speaker 2>he'll go off the board top ten, somewhere between five

496
00:29:57.440 --> 00:30:01.039
<v Speaker 2>and ten. But I'm not I'm not going to play

497
00:30:01.079 --> 00:30:05.400
<v Speaker 2>that game. I have nothing other than my gut feeling

498
00:30:05.440 --> 00:30:08.720
<v Speaker 2>to support it. But something's wrong. We're seeing it in

499
00:30:08.799 --> 00:30:15.359
<v Speaker 2>the results. Is it mechanics, is it a mass injury

500
00:30:15.400 --> 00:30:20.200
<v Speaker 2>of some sort? Playing playing shape? You know what I mean?

501
00:30:20.359 --> 00:30:24.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. And when I have doubts like that,

502
00:30:24.519 --> 00:30:28.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to lean in another direction rather than making

503
00:30:28.920 --> 00:30:31.720
<v Speaker 2>the commitment you have to make as a top ten,

504
00:30:32.000 --> 00:30:35.920
<v Speaker 2>as a top ten starter. Okay, I'll look elsewhere because

505
00:30:35.960 --> 00:30:40.039
<v Speaker 2>I just I don't feel comfortable, you know. So if

506
00:30:40.200 --> 00:30:42.519
<v Speaker 2>I don't feel comfortable, why would I make the move.

507
00:30:43.799 --> 00:30:46.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm not going to yep personally.

508
00:30:46.440 --> 00:30:49.519
<v Speaker 1>Timmy, Let's take a break and come back, and let's

509
00:30:49.519 --> 00:30:52.400
<v Speaker 1>see if we can come up with out of our asses,

510
00:30:53.000 --> 00:31:07.480
<v Speaker 1>somebody who's going to break out next season. I think

511
00:31:07.480 --> 00:31:09.160
<v Speaker 1>one of the answer should be Kate Anderson.

512
00:31:10.839 --> 00:31:12.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

513
00:31:12.200 --> 00:31:19.559
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, maybe I've got a guy that has not struck

514
00:31:19.599 --> 00:31:22.319
<v Speaker 3>out as many guys as I would have thought.

515
00:31:22.559 --> 00:31:24.200
<v Speaker 1>Another Pittsburgh pirate.

516
00:31:24.799 --> 00:31:31.119
<v Speaker 2>That's Bubba Chandler, yeah, yeah, and Ashcraft, Yeah, they're both.

517
00:31:32.000 --> 00:31:35.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but Ashcraft kind of. I don't think Bubba Chandler

518
00:31:35.119 --> 00:31:37.720
<v Speaker 1>is going to be in your top thirty forty guys.

519
00:31:37.759 --> 00:31:40.799
<v Speaker 1>Maybe he will be, but I just think it's a

520
00:31:40.839 --> 00:31:43.079
<v Speaker 1>guy that you can get a little bit later that

521
00:31:43.200 --> 00:31:47.519
<v Speaker 1>the upside is still pretty terrific. And he's even terribly

522
00:31:47.559 --> 00:31:50.400
<v Speaker 1>youngest his first season in the league. I think Brax

523
00:31:50.440 --> 00:31:53.640
<v Speaker 1>and Ashcraft is again I sound like a broken record

524
00:31:53.640 --> 00:31:57.599
<v Speaker 1>with him. I think that guy is really good. I

525
00:31:57.599 --> 00:32:00.799
<v Speaker 1>think he's really boring because he doesn't doesn't throw one

526
00:32:00.839 --> 00:32:04.519
<v Speaker 1>hundred miles an hour, he doesn't have the eighty grade

527
00:32:04.680 --> 00:32:07.039
<v Speaker 1>slider or anything like that. He's just really good.

528
00:32:08.720 --> 00:32:13.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I can't. And you know, when I look

529
00:32:13.279 --> 00:32:16.440
<v Speaker 2>at the list of pictures that I have that we

530
00:32:16.519 --> 00:32:20.279
<v Speaker 2>didn't select, Schemes is on there, Massac is on there,

531
00:32:20.920 --> 00:32:26.440
<v Speaker 2>Nolan McLain is on there, Garrett Crochet, Logan, Gilbert Uri, Perez,

532
00:32:27.039 --> 00:32:31.599
<v Speaker 2>Max Meyer, Hunter Brown. There's there's some really good pictures

533
00:32:31.680 --> 00:32:38.240
<v Speaker 2>that are going to fall into a de facto or

534
00:32:38.359 --> 00:32:41.640
<v Speaker 2>default a sort of situation. But if you can land

535
00:32:41.680 --> 00:32:44.279
<v Speaker 2>a couple of those, a couple of them might be

536
00:32:44.279 --> 00:32:48.759
<v Speaker 2>better than some of the gambles on the perceived top ten,

537
00:32:49.119 --> 00:32:50.039
<v Speaker 2>if that makes sense.

538
00:32:51.200 --> 00:32:53.880
<v Speaker 1>I did not have Max Meyer on there, and I'm

539
00:32:54.000 --> 00:32:56.160
<v Speaker 1>looking at his stat line and I should have Max

540
00:32:56.240 --> 00:32:59.759
<v Speaker 1>myre though, he's got an expected array of three eighty six,

541
00:33:00.039 --> 00:33:02.839
<v Speaker 1>getting a little bit lucky there, but uh.

542
00:33:04.839 --> 00:33:08.880
<v Speaker 2>Wow the strikeouts. Yeah, he's had a good year, he

543
00:33:09.000 --> 00:33:09.519
<v Speaker 2>really has.

544
00:33:10.319 --> 00:33:15.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Man, there's there's Miami Marlon pictures man just environment

545
00:33:15.400 --> 00:33:18.000
<v Speaker 1>and the in the factory that they've got over there

546
00:33:18.039 --> 00:33:19.759
<v Speaker 1>just all works well.

547
00:33:19.799 --> 00:33:22.480
<v Speaker 2>And if you look at Kate Anderson, Thomas White should

548
00:33:22.599 --> 00:33:29.559
<v Speaker 2>be considered too, right, he's hurt. He's hurt. But I mean, yeah,

549
00:33:29.640 --> 00:33:32.680
<v Speaker 2>Seth Hernandez, Yeah, there's some there's some pictures. It's going

550
00:33:32.759 --> 00:33:36.119
<v Speaker 2>to be fascinating to see when they arrive and with

551
00:33:36.200 --> 00:33:37.319
<v Speaker 2>how much Vander.

552
00:33:37.559 --> 00:33:39.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I don't think we're going to see Seth Seth

553
00:33:39.759 --> 00:33:42.599
<v Speaker 1>the Hernandez. That's just my take. I mean he's he's

554
00:33:43.160 --> 00:33:47.319
<v Speaker 1>after his like incredible start. I mean he's really tapered

555
00:33:47.319 --> 00:33:51.440
<v Speaker 1>off a bit, so, uh. I think he'll probably be overdrafted.

556
00:33:51.519 --> 00:33:53.079
<v Speaker 1>Just that's just my thought there.

557
00:33:53.599 --> 00:33:59.119
<v Speaker 2>M Yeah, yeah for next year in aery Draftleig, Yeah,

558
00:33:59.119 --> 00:33:59.880
<v Speaker 2>he probably will.

559
00:33:59.759 --> 00:34:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Be Okay, Uh, fun stuff Timmy, let's uh, let's go.

560
00:34:04.359 --> 00:34:05.920
<v Speaker 1>Let me get back to my notes here.

561
00:34:06.319 --> 00:34:08.280
<v Speaker 2>You don't want my long shot for it next year?

562
00:34:08.519 --> 00:34:10.440
<v Speaker 1>I thought I thought one of those was your long shot.

563
00:34:10.480 --> 00:34:11.639
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, who's your long shot?

564
00:34:11.719 --> 00:34:21.119
<v Speaker 2>No? Okay, herod O Saki, Oh jeez, leading the NBB

565
00:34:21.360 --> 00:34:24.280
<v Speaker 2>and strikes he wants to st them over. Then the

566
00:34:24.320 --> 00:34:27.920
<v Speaker 2>top twenty start sitting that will be drafted as a

567
00:34:28.000 --> 00:34:30.960
<v Speaker 2>top one or Cody Ponce there we go, I.

568
00:34:30.840 --> 00:34:35.360
<v Speaker 1>Am totally done with these Japanese guys, Timmy, I'm done.

569
00:34:35.840 --> 00:34:40.239
<v Speaker 1>Uh am Iya did me in? I'm done? Okay, two

570
00:34:40.320 --> 00:34:44.119
<v Speaker 1>years I wad with with Sasaki and I'm not even

571
00:34:44.119 --> 00:34:47.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna it's a zero point zero you mentioned in Japanese picture.

572
00:34:47.719 --> 00:34:49.599
<v Speaker 1>Done done.

573
00:34:51.320 --> 00:34:55.719
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know what, we don't play in any leagues together. Yeah,

574
00:34:55.920 --> 00:34:58.039
<v Speaker 2>we won't be fighting over it, but we did.

575
00:34:58.800 --> 00:35:01.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm okay with a Cody ponzas of the world. These

576
00:35:01.159 --> 00:35:05.599
<v Speaker 1>guys that come over, particularly from Korea, with with you know,

577
00:35:06.039 --> 00:35:09.760
<v Speaker 1>some improved stuff, I mean, Foster Griffin, They've they've been great.

578
00:35:10.239 --> 00:35:13.960
<v Speaker 1>But these high end Japanese guys. Yeah, for every Yamamota

579
00:35:14.079 --> 00:35:17.400
<v Speaker 1>that you get, there's I mean, my husband, brutal Sosaki

580
00:35:17.519 --> 00:35:20.440
<v Speaker 1>was terrible. I mean he's pitch He's pitching much better

581
00:35:20.519 --> 00:35:23.239
<v Speaker 1>this season, but I mean these first year man, forget

582
00:35:23.280 --> 00:35:24.280
<v Speaker 1>about it.

583
00:35:25.800 --> 00:35:27.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the only benefit you got there is if you

584
00:35:27.559 --> 00:35:30.320
<v Speaker 2>played in the playoff league and you had you picked

585
00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:33.239
<v Speaker 2>him up for the save, if you ended up lucking

586
00:35:33.280 --> 00:35:36.760
<v Speaker 2>into the saves and playoffs when they when they moved

587
00:35:36.800 --> 00:35:41.239
<v Speaker 2>him into the bullpen. Yeah, No, Psyche's twenty nine years old,

588
00:35:41.280 --> 00:35:43.840
<v Speaker 2>he's a veteran. He's leading their league in strike oats.

589
00:35:43.559 --> 00:35:46.639
<v Speaker 2>I feel much more comfortable about him than I do

590
00:35:46.800 --> 00:35:52.639
<v Speaker 2>about per se. Uh. I would feel the most comfortable

591
00:35:52.639 --> 00:35:56.639
<v Speaker 2>about him since any pitcher since Yamamoto. How's that.

592
00:35:59.320 --> 00:36:02.599
<v Speaker 1>You talked that maya really big man. We all bought

593
00:36:02.639 --> 00:36:08.320
<v Speaker 1>into it man, and then we bought into well. I'm

594
00:36:08.320 --> 00:36:14.559
<v Speaker 1>a little concerned about his control. Incredibly, you did it

595
00:36:14.599 --> 00:36:16.519
<v Speaker 1>before the season started.

596
00:36:16.599 --> 00:36:22.440
<v Speaker 2>But it's like like what, yeah, what are you talking about? Yeah,

597
00:36:22.440 --> 00:36:24.880
<v Speaker 2>for a while I was hockey rolls Rice and I

598
00:36:24.920 --> 00:36:27.039
<v Speaker 2>delivered a pindo a little bit exactly.

599
00:36:27.480 --> 00:36:29.719
<v Speaker 1>It's like, get, this guy's gonna be great, because the

600
00:36:29.800 --> 00:36:34.840
<v Speaker 1>greatest guy since Yama Mode. Okay, okay, and then three

601
00:36:34.920 --> 00:36:37.239
<v Speaker 1>days for the season, I'm a little concerned about his control.

602
00:36:37.639 --> 00:36:45.639
<v Speaker 1>What oh you drafted already, draft bastard?

603
00:36:46.639 --> 00:36:48.519
<v Speaker 2>All right, thank you, thank you?

604
00:36:48.599 --> 00:36:50.840
<v Speaker 1>All right, what's the name? What's the guy's name? Again?

605
00:36:50.880 --> 00:36:52.559
<v Speaker 1>One more time? I won't even give you a zero

606
00:36:52.599 --> 00:36:55.079
<v Speaker 1>points there. I didn't. I wasn't paying attention. What's what's

607
00:36:55.119 --> 00:36:55.840
<v Speaker 1>the picture's name?

608
00:36:56.440 --> 00:36:59.440
<v Speaker 2>Was? I was gonna spell it out s A I

609
00:36:59.559 --> 00:37:06.599
<v Speaker 2>K I heroical. He's leading the sack Japanese. Yeah, Sechy, Yeah,

610
00:37:06.639 --> 00:37:10.360
<v Speaker 2>he's been leading. He's leading the MVB in Stracos Yere.

611
00:37:10.400 --> 00:37:12.039
<v Speaker 2>He's wanted to come over for a couple of years.

612
00:37:12.079 --> 00:37:14.760
<v Speaker 2>I think he'll Hey, if of course, we get some

613
00:37:14.800 --> 00:37:17.679
<v Speaker 2>sort of assemblance of a CBA, there's a good possible

614
00:37:17.719 --> 00:37:20.559
<v Speaker 2>ability we'll see him next year. The CBA is going

615
00:37:20.639 --> 00:37:23.440
<v Speaker 2>to mess everything up. In effect, that really.

616
00:37:23.280 --> 00:37:27.320
<v Speaker 1>Might mess up the Japanese guys who post, right, because

617
00:37:28.119 --> 00:37:31.320
<v Speaker 1>they typically post in December January. We're not going to

618
00:37:31.360 --> 00:37:32.960
<v Speaker 1>know anything in December January.

619
00:37:33.920 --> 00:37:36.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, and that's that's the problem. That these guys sign

620
00:37:36.519 --> 00:37:40.440
<v Speaker 2>on for another year. Do they defer their plans permanently?

621
00:37:40.480 --> 00:37:42.920
<v Speaker 2>What happens with the North American guys? Do we see

622
00:37:42.920 --> 00:37:45.519
<v Speaker 2>them going to Japan if they get an offer and

623
00:37:45.639 --> 00:37:49.440
<v Speaker 2>not even considering looking at Major League Baseball. It's going

624
00:37:49.519 --> 00:37:51.920
<v Speaker 2>to cause a total mess of that whole situation. Rich,

625
00:37:53.599 --> 00:37:55.760
<v Speaker 2>It's gonna be ugly, ugly, ugly.

626
00:37:56.800 --> 00:37:59.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's funny. I've I've been busy writing up. I mean,

627
00:37:59.800 --> 00:38:02.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm starting on my prospect stuff right writing for

628
00:38:03.840 --> 00:38:06.760
<v Speaker 1>my fall project, and I'm probably three quarters of the

629
00:38:06.760 --> 00:38:09.719
<v Speaker 1>way done. I mean, I'm just finishing up the Toronto

630
00:38:09.719 --> 00:38:13.079
<v Speaker 1>Blue Jays today and that will be two thirds of

631
00:38:13.119 --> 00:38:15.480
<v Speaker 1>the teams, So I've got the West to do, which

632
00:38:15.480 --> 00:38:19.000
<v Speaker 1>is probably the biggest chunk, just because I don't know this,

633
00:38:19.119 --> 00:38:22.239
<v Speaker 1>but I'm putting in like, you should start the season

634
00:38:22.280 --> 00:38:25.480
<v Speaker 1>in twenty twenty seven in the big leagues. And then

635
00:38:25.519 --> 00:38:29.199
<v Speaker 1>I'm thinking it's kind of depressing because you don't know

636
00:38:29.199 --> 00:38:30.840
<v Speaker 1>what's gonna happen. And I don't know what's going to

637
00:38:30.880 --> 00:38:33.440
<v Speaker 1>happen in the minor leagues either. And then I think,

638
00:38:33.440 --> 00:38:35.960
<v Speaker 1>and what's going to happen with our Patreots side. Is

639
00:38:35.960 --> 00:38:38.159
<v Speaker 1>anybody gonna win a bay where we have.

640
00:38:38.159 --> 00:38:40.159
<v Speaker 2>Nothing to talk about? I mean, I don't know.

641
00:38:40.400 --> 00:38:41.440
<v Speaker 1>It's not gonna suck.

642
00:38:42.639 --> 00:38:45.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know, before you start, when you do your

643
00:38:45.199 --> 00:38:51.800
<v Speaker 2>first division, Okay, yeah, you should put the caveat up top. Okay,

644
00:38:52.119 --> 00:38:56.400
<v Speaker 2>this applies to everything from here on forward. Until we

645
00:38:56.440 --> 00:38:59.320
<v Speaker 2>get some definition. There might not be a season, or

646
00:38:59.360 --> 00:39:02.440
<v Speaker 2>it might be aduced. We don't know. And when it

647
00:39:02.480 --> 00:39:05.760
<v Speaker 2>comes to ranking players, and especially when you're looking at

648
00:39:05.760 --> 00:39:10.000
<v Speaker 2>potential arrival dates, it's pretty tough. If we don't have

649
00:39:10.039 --> 00:39:13.280
<v Speaker 2>a full twenty twenty seven, it doesn't start on time.

650
00:39:13.880 --> 00:39:17.679
<v Speaker 2>All of your estimated arrival times are going to be

651
00:39:18.400 --> 00:39:21.480
<v Speaker 2>pushed back by that amount of time, aren't they. Yeah

652
00:39:21.519 --> 00:39:25.559
<v Speaker 2>that they miss Yeah, so yeah, one caveat, and you

653
00:39:25.559 --> 00:39:27.199
<v Speaker 2>would have you wouldn't have to mention it for the

654
00:39:27.239 --> 00:39:30.039
<v Speaker 2>other twenty five teams, right.

655
00:39:30.159 --> 00:39:32.880
<v Speaker 1>I just decided just to not even mentioned. And I'm

656
00:39:32.920 --> 00:39:36.360
<v Speaker 1>just kind of writing and going, well, you know, we'll

657
00:39:36.480 --> 00:39:39.719
<v Speaker 1>see what happens. I mean, again, I don't know the

658
00:39:39.719 --> 00:39:42.960
<v Speaker 1>CBA rules. I believe the minor leagues are now in

659
00:39:44.039 --> 00:39:47.280
<v Speaker 1>in the Union effect, I know they are. I don't

660
00:39:47.400 --> 00:39:51.000
<v Speaker 1>know if I mean, it would seem crazy that they

661
00:39:51.000 --> 00:39:54.039
<v Speaker 1>would delay all these kids getting started. That just backs

662
00:39:54.079 --> 00:39:57.880
<v Speaker 1>everything up. I don't know. That's what a mess.

663
00:39:58.320 --> 00:40:00.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's it. It's a mess.

664
00:40:00.880 --> 00:40:02.519
<v Speaker 1>I just take a look at the standings. To me,

665
00:40:02.599 --> 00:40:05.719
<v Speaker 1>I know it's not fantasy baseball, but it is baseball.

666
00:40:05.719 --> 00:40:07.480
<v Speaker 1>We can talk about about whatever we want on on

667
00:40:07.719 --> 00:40:10.760
<v Speaker 1>the on Fridays. That's that's dealer's choice.

668
00:40:12.039 --> 00:40:18.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, g G I right, t G.

669
00:40:18.360 --> 00:40:19.800
<v Speaker 1>I thank god it's Friday.

670
00:40:20.880 --> 00:40:23.280
<v Speaker 2>Or something that I put on my running shoes to

671
00:40:23.320 --> 00:40:25.000
<v Speaker 2>remind me the toes going first.

672
00:40:27.559 --> 00:40:32.880
<v Speaker 1>All right, that's very fun. It's very dad joke Jackson

673
00:40:33.039 --> 00:40:40.239
<v Speaker 1>the about the why is the armor single? Because it can't?

674
00:40:40.239 --> 00:40:46.239
<v Speaker 1>Elope mean it was it was expressionless, like you're no

675
00:40:46.400 --> 00:40:47.320
<v Speaker 1>genius kid.

676
00:40:47.920 --> 00:40:49.800
<v Speaker 2>Thank you.

677
00:40:51.000 --> 00:40:52.599
<v Speaker 1>I want to know that it for right.

678
00:40:53.800 --> 00:40:57.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I've left for any people speechless, but usually not

679
00:40:57.719 --> 00:40:58.559
<v Speaker 2>at that age yet.

680
00:40:59.679 --> 00:41:04.639
<v Speaker 1>First, all right, so Yankees. Yankees have had a good week.

681
00:41:04.719 --> 00:41:08.159
<v Speaker 1>The Red Sox in four and six. So we've got

682
00:41:08.159 --> 00:41:11.400
<v Speaker 1>a tie here between the Minnesota Twins and the Texas Rangers,

683
00:41:11.400 --> 00:41:15.360
<v Speaker 1>with the Blue Jays a half out, yeah, Guardians a

684
00:41:15.440 --> 00:41:18.159
<v Speaker 1>game out, Tiger's a game and half, and the Orioles

685
00:41:18.480 --> 00:41:22.000
<v Speaker 1>the tough series against the Yankees just did not did

686
00:41:22.000 --> 00:41:24.320
<v Speaker 1>not get it done. And now they're two games out.

687
00:41:26.079 --> 00:41:28.320
<v Speaker 1>You still think the Yankees and Red Sox are getting

688
00:41:28.360 --> 00:41:30.079
<v Speaker 1>in who gets that last spot?

689
00:41:31.719 --> 00:41:34.639
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know, and sharing the injuries that Jay's been

690
00:41:34.679 --> 00:41:38.960
<v Speaker 2>dealing with, the playing good baseball. Yeah, they've got the

691
00:41:38.960 --> 00:41:41.880
<v Speaker 2>best record over the past ten in in their division

692
00:41:41.920 --> 00:41:46.679
<v Speaker 2>at seven and three. I'm still I'm still rooting for

693
00:41:46.760 --> 00:41:51.599
<v Speaker 2>one of Toronto or Detroit. But Detroit's gone four and

694
00:41:51.599 --> 00:41:55.199
<v Speaker 2>six in the past ten there, so i'd bet I

695
00:41:55.639 --> 00:41:57.719
<v Speaker 2>gotta like what I got a root for the Jays.

696
00:41:57.840 --> 00:42:02.159
<v Speaker 2>I really am after they're after their headline sell off

697
00:42:02.199 --> 00:42:08.000
<v Speaker 2>and moving play. Hey, they're only three games under five hundred.

698
00:42:08.039 --> 00:42:10.599
<v Speaker 2>They took two or three from the Rays. This weekend's

699
00:42:10.599 --> 00:42:12.559
<v Speaker 2>a big series. They got to win at least one

700
00:42:12.639 --> 00:42:15.639
<v Speaker 2>game in New York before they head back home. If

701
00:42:15.679 --> 00:42:18.840
<v Speaker 2>you got Kansas City next, So if they can win one,

702
00:42:19.360 --> 00:42:23.239
<v Speaker 2>possibly two against the Yankees, we'd go a long way

703
00:42:23.239 --> 00:42:27.159
<v Speaker 2>into helping them out. So I'm rooting for the Jason.

704
00:42:28.199 --> 00:42:32.960
<v Speaker 1>Let's see who Detroit's got next. Let's see. I'm looking

705
00:42:33.000 --> 00:42:36.840
<v Speaker 1>at the they got yeah, the oh, they got the

706
00:42:37.119 --> 00:42:42.119
<v Speaker 1>Uh They're at Kansas City this weekend home against the

707
00:42:42.199 --> 00:42:44.119
<v Speaker 1>Rays and the Rays haven't played well. Ooh then home

708
00:42:44.119 --> 00:42:46.840
<v Speaker 1>against home against the Dodgers, yikes.

709
00:42:46.960 --> 00:42:52.000
<v Speaker 2>Ooh, Yeah, then they're five games under five hundred. They've

710
00:42:52.039 --> 00:42:55.039
<v Speaker 2>got they got to turn around that four to sixth

711
00:42:55.039 --> 00:42:58.119
<v Speaker 2>in the past ten and consecutive losses back to back.

712
00:42:58.159 --> 00:42:59.800
<v Speaker 2>They got to turn that around real quick.

713
00:43:00.239 --> 00:43:02.719
<v Speaker 1>The Twins are the Twins are two games that are

714
00:43:02.719 --> 00:43:05.039
<v Speaker 1>five hundred, and if the season end of the day,

715
00:43:05.199 --> 00:43:08.000
<v Speaker 1>along with the Rangers, they would be in the playoffs.

716
00:43:08.480 --> 00:43:11.440
<v Speaker 1>It's just embar and the Houston Astros are going to

717
00:43:11.480 --> 00:43:15.320
<v Speaker 1>win the West time well, sixty four and sixty four

718
00:43:15.320 --> 00:43:16.440
<v Speaker 1>with a five hundred record.

719
00:43:17.639 --> 00:43:19.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and there were there one game up and there

720
00:43:19.760 --> 00:43:23.239
<v Speaker 2>somebody from the AL is going to make the playoffs.

721
00:43:23.679 --> 00:43:26.280
<v Speaker 2>Maybe even two teams are going to make the playoffs

722
00:43:26.400 --> 00:43:28.079
<v Speaker 2>with a sub five hundred record.

723
00:43:29.320 --> 00:43:33.079
<v Speaker 1>Yep. At this juncture, well, I guess the Rangers are

724
00:43:33.119 --> 00:43:37.199
<v Speaker 1>only one game behind the Astros, so the Rangers still

725
00:43:37.199 --> 00:43:39.480
<v Speaker 1>could win the division. The Astros could be out of it.

726
00:43:40.000 --> 00:43:43.800
<v Speaker 1>So that's that's an interesting playoff situation.

727
00:43:45.039 --> 00:43:48.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I still think I'd love to see four teams

728
00:43:48.800 --> 00:43:51.760
<v Speaker 2>from the ALE East make it, and that's entirely possible,

729
00:43:52.920 --> 00:43:57.199
<v Speaker 2>as are a million other different combinations. Minnesota, Cleveland, Detroit,

730
00:43:58.079 --> 00:44:02.519
<v Speaker 2>and Texas. I would say, Hey, the Mariners I think

731
00:44:02.519 --> 00:44:04.960
<v Speaker 2>are out of it at eight games under five hundred.

732
00:44:06.599 --> 00:44:10.199
<v Speaker 2>Detroit's on the CUSP. Baltimore I think is out of

733
00:44:10.199 --> 00:44:13.119
<v Speaker 2>it at six games back, that's going to be tough

734
00:44:13.199 --> 00:44:14.880
<v Speaker 2>to you know, they've gone four and six in the

735
00:44:14.960 --> 00:44:21.119
<v Speaker 2>past ten Baltimore with everything so bunched up, every win

736
00:44:21.280 --> 00:44:24.480
<v Speaker 2>counts at this stage, it really does. It's going to

737
00:44:24.519 --> 00:44:27.559
<v Speaker 2>be that tight. I think unless somebody explodes and wins

738
00:44:27.599 --> 00:44:31.320
<v Speaker 2>ten in a row, that changes that change. Hey, if

739
00:44:31.360 --> 00:44:33.559
<v Speaker 2>Baltimore was to win ten in a row, that would

740
00:44:33.599 --> 00:44:36.639
<v Speaker 2>put them right on the heels of Boston, maybe ahead

741
00:44:36.639 --> 00:44:40.719
<v Speaker 2>of Boston. So I get anything's possible. But once you

742
00:44:40.760 --> 00:44:43.480
<v Speaker 2>get five six games under five hundred right now, with

743
00:44:43.559 --> 00:44:47.079
<v Speaker 2>what you've got to crawl over to get into a

744
00:44:47.119 --> 00:44:50.559
<v Speaker 2>position where you're in the hunt, it's going to be tough.

745
00:44:51.000 --> 00:44:52.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you got to give it up for the Twins.

746
00:44:52.880 --> 00:44:56.480
<v Speaker 1>They've had a great season. Ye, no one projected that

747
00:44:56.840 --> 00:44:59.639
<v Speaker 1>as as well as no one projected the White Sox. Then,

748
00:45:00.440 --> 00:45:03.039
<v Speaker 1>I mean the White Sox is still I mean, they're

749
00:45:03.079 --> 00:45:05.239
<v Speaker 1>still limping along a little bit, but there are three

750
00:45:05.280 --> 00:45:08.800
<v Speaker 1>games above the Twins, so I mean they're not completely

751
00:45:08.840 --> 00:45:10.519
<v Speaker 1>in it, but it looks very very good. Let's go

752
00:45:10.679 --> 00:45:15.840
<v Speaker 1>to the West, I mean the Phillies and Padres. That's

753
00:45:15.920 --> 00:45:18.320
<v Speaker 1>the talk here, Timmy, because they have just come out

754
00:45:18.360 --> 00:45:21.320
<v Speaker 1>of overre and the Phillies are now seventy and fifty eight.

755
00:45:22.039 --> 00:45:24.719
<v Speaker 1>They are squarely in the NL wild card in the

756
00:45:24.719 --> 00:45:27.800
<v Speaker 1>San Diego Padres, and now if the season we're in today,

757
00:45:27.880 --> 00:45:31.280
<v Speaker 1>they are the last wild card team in it.

758
00:45:33.440 --> 00:45:35.840
<v Speaker 2>Arizona is still hanging in tough. They're only a game

759
00:45:35.920 --> 00:45:40.039
<v Speaker 2>back in San Diego. So I think we got a

760
00:45:40.119 --> 00:45:47.000
<v Speaker 2>race happening there. The Cardinals three games over five hundred.

761
00:45:47.440 --> 00:45:50.239
<v Speaker 2>I don't think we can rule the Cardinals totally out

762
00:45:50.280 --> 00:45:54.039
<v Speaker 2>of it, but everybody else for the most part, Miami's

763
00:45:54.079 --> 00:46:00.480
<v Speaker 2>at five hundred, there is a race for that wildcard, uh,

764
00:46:01.280 --> 00:46:02.000
<v Speaker 2>for that one.

765
00:46:01.960 --> 00:46:06.760
<v Speaker 1>Who gets in, who gets in Padres, it's a Padres,

766
00:46:06.840 --> 00:46:09.639
<v Speaker 1>so it is as is So it's the Cubs, Phillies,

767
00:46:09.639 --> 00:46:10.320
<v Speaker 1>and Padres.

768
00:46:12.119 --> 00:46:15.400
<v Speaker 2>That's yeah, that's what I'm surmising right now. Again unless

769
00:46:15.440 --> 00:46:18.960
<v Speaker 2>either Saint Louis Arizona. Arizona doesn't have to go on

770
00:46:19.039 --> 00:46:22.360
<v Speaker 2>as much of a terror, but they play some good baseball.

771
00:46:24.280 --> 00:46:27.480
<v Speaker 2>The Cubs, it's I mean, the Cardinals, that's just a

772
00:46:27.719 --> 00:46:30.079
<v Speaker 2>it's just a pure long shot. As well as Miami.

773
00:46:30.440 --> 00:46:34.719
<v Speaker 2>They've had good years, very good years, but I just

774
00:46:34.760 --> 00:46:39.320
<v Speaker 2>don't think there's enough there on the Miami side. The hitting,

775
00:46:39.440 --> 00:46:41.440
<v Speaker 2>and on the card side, the pitching.

776
00:46:41.960 --> 00:46:44.840
<v Speaker 1>The Marlins are the saint boat as the Mariners. I mean,

777
00:46:44.880 --> 00:46:47.400
<v Speaker 1>the Marlins have got me great pitching, They've got a

778
00:46:47.440 --> 00:46:50.480
<v Speaker 1>great pitching environment. But so they get some hitters. It's

779
00:46:51.079 --> 00:46:53.519
<v Speaker 1>just I mean they're maybe sneak in every once in

780
00:46:53.559 --> 00:46:56.800
<v Speaker 1>a while as a wildcar, but it's just yeah, it's

781
00:46:56.800 --> 00:46:57.519
<v Speaker 1>just not happening.

782
00:46:58.599 --> 00:47:04.360
<v Speaker 2>Now. The Marlins might come into the year, they might

783
00:47:04.400 --> 00:47:07.960
<v Speaker 2>not have a twenty home run back in their lineup.

784
00:47:09.159 --> 00:47:09.960
<v Speaker 2>That doesn't work.

785
00:47:11.719 --> 00:47:17.519
<v Speaker 1>No, No, totally agree. It's very it's very Cleveland Guardian esque. Uh.

786
00:47:17.679 --> 00:47:20.599
<v Speaker 1>And then in the American League, you've got the three

787
00:47:21.400 --> 00:47:25.239
<v Speaker 1>AL East guys, right, so that is the Yankees, Red

788
00:47:25.280 --> 00:47:28.760
<v Speaker 1>Sox and you're Toronto Blue Jays.

789
00:47:30.119 --> 00:47:33.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm I'm I'm gonna go with the three three

790
00:47:33.239 --> 00:47:35.760
<v Speaker 2>division winners, and I'm gonna go with four teams out

791
00:47:35.800 --> 00:47:41.519
<v Speaker 2>of the Ale East. Yeah, all three wild cards.

792
00:47:42.000 --> 00:47:44.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, the Tigers. Boy, that's gonna be a tough haul. Man.

793
00:47:44.559 --> 00:47:47.480
<v Speaker 1>That that was a last tough last season. That really

794
00:47:47.519 --> 00:47:51.119
<v Speaker 1>probably did them. Inn Guardians still have a shot, still

795
00:47:51.159 --> 00:47:51.760
<v Speaker 1>have a shot.

796
00:47:52.039 --> 00:47:57.760
<v Speaker 2>Yes, they definitely do. SODA's Minnesota, but there's not there's

797
00:47:57.800 --> 00:47:59.880
<v Speaker 2>not much wiggle room in there where you know you

798
00:48:00.159 --> 00:48:02.400
<v Speaker 2>were mentioning the White Sox have cooled off a little

799
00:48:02.400 --> 00:48:05.239
<v Speaker 2>the other five and five in the past ten, and

800
00:48:05.280 --> 00:48:08.760
<v Speaker 2>you're right, definitely they've cooled up a little bit. But

801
00:48:08.840 --> 00:48:11.639
<v Speaker 2>Minnesota has been five and five in the past ten

802
00:48:11.679 --> 00:48:13.880
<v Speaker 2>and Cleveland has been four and six and Detroit's been

803
00:48:13.920 --> 00:48:17.159
<v Speaker 2>four and six, so they're cooling off. They're playing at

804
00:48:17.159 --> 00:48:19.800
<v Speaker 2>the same There's been no change in the overall standing

805
00:48:19.960 --> 00:48:22.920
<v Speaker 2>in the past week and a half. They're just all

806
00:48:22.920 --> 00:48:26.000
<v Speaker 2>playing at the same level. Nobody has stepped up and

807
00:48:26.039 --> 00:48:29.639
<v Speaker 2>gone seven and three or eight two. They tighten it up.

808
00:48:30.239 --> 00:48:32.840
<v Speaker 1>Everybody's five and five or four and six except for

809
00:48:32.960 --> 00:48:36.559
<v Speaker 1>the Blue Jays seven and three. So no one is

810
00:48:36.599 --> 00:48:38.920
<v Speaker 1>really making a move here. And we still got thirty

811
00:48:38.960 --> 00:48:42.519
<v Speaker 1>five games left, so there's plenty of time for somebody

812
00:48:42.519 --> 00:48:45.480
<v Speaker 1>to go on a Red Sox ten and oh, twelve

813
00:48:45.480 --> 00:48:49.440
<v Speaker 1>and oh kind of run. If that happens. Tigers, even

814
00:48:49.440 --> 00:48:51.880
<v Speaker 1>the Orioles could jump even the Mariners could jump in.

815
00:48:52.119 --> 00:48:53.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I think it's yeah, of course.

816
00:48:54.679 --> 00:48:59.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I agree totally. It's very very much up in

817
00:48:59.199 --> 00:49:01.800
<v Speaker 2>the air. When hot streak will determine whether or not

818
00:49:01.960 --> 00:49:05.920
<v Speaker 2>you're in it. Or you're trying to lower your golf

819
00:49:05.960 --> 00:49:07.559
<v Speaker 2>handicap in October.

820
00:49:08.000 --> 00:49:09.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean, let's take a take another break, come back

821
00:49:10.000 --> 00:49:12.800
<v Speaker 1>and do some rapid fire stuff and get out of here.

822
00:49:13.679 --> 00:49:14.840
<v Speaker 2>Ah, sounds good.

823
00:49:21.960 --> 00:49:24.039
<v Speaker 1>I have been told that the delivery guys will be

824
00:49:24.079 --> 00:49:26.840
<v Speaker 1>here in twenty minutes. Twenty minutes, so we got it.

825
00:49:27.159 --> 00:49:29.599
<v Speaker 2>Let's finish.

826
00:49:29.159 --> 00:49:31.800
<v Speaker 1>Let's finish this up in ten twelve minutes, and then

827
00:49:31.800 --> 00:49:34.840
<v Speaker 1>we'll call it a day. Let's talk about poor Josh.

828
00:49:34.920 --> 00:49:41.000
<v Speaker 1>Biased me, but I think he was over three yesterday. Obviously,

829
00:49:41.039 --> 00:49:44.360
<v Speaker 1>with the historic opening day three home runs, he's over.

830
00:49:44.679 --> 00:49:49.239
<v Speaker 1>He's over twenty four since. Uh, I think with eight strikeouts.

831
00:49:49.239 --> 00:49:51.079
<v Speaker 1>I think i'd strike out Yesterday's When I wrote this,

832
00:49:51.119 --> 00:49:55.360
<v Speaker 1>it was over twenty one. He said, he won sixty total.

833
00:49:55.480 --> 00:50:01.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, okay, yeah, yeah, Yeah. He's been a little longer,

834
00:50:01.079 --> 00:50:01.880
<v Speaker 2>he's been a little.

835
00:50:02.320 --> 00:50:04.119
<v Speaker 1>So what do you do. You're starting them this week

836
00:50:04.119 --> 00:50:06.199
<v Speaker 1>and you get a chance to reset your lineups, you're

837
00:50:06.199 --> 00:50:07.079
<v Speaker 1>putting them out there.

838
00:50:07.760 --> 00:50:11.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, definitely, he's been a little unlucky. He's been hitting

839
00:50:11.480 --> 00:50:13.639
<v Speaker 2>the ball hard, he said, been hitting it at people,

840
00:50:13.760 --> 00:50:19.119
<v Speaker 2>he said, He's he's been in the beneficiary of some

841
00:50:19.159 --> 00:50:23.679
<v Speaker 2>great defense. Yeah, and he's a rookie. Okay, we saw

842
00:50:23.719 --> 00:50:27.239
<v Speaker 2>him hit three in his debut, right, he could hit

843
00:50:27.280 --> 00:50:28.920
<v Speaker 2>three in his next game? Out? Are you going to

844
00:50:29.039 --> 00:50:31.719
<v Speaker 2>leave that on your bench? No?

845
00:50:31.880 --> 00:50:35.320
<v Speaker 1>I did. This week. I had one team and I

846
00:50:35.360 --> 00:50:43.679
<v Speaker 1>did not put him in. So I was a little concern. Look,

847
00:50:43.719 --> 00:50:47.079
<v Speaker 1>if he hits three three home runs in the next game,

848
00:50:47.159 --> 00:50:52.280
<v Speaker 1>I that would be really historic, never to be repeated.

849
00:50:52.320 --> 00:50:56.079
<v Speaker 2>But yes, and very annoying. There would be a rent

850
00:50:56.159 --> 00:50:57.920
<v Speaker 2>coming on our next podcast.

851
00:50:58.559 --> 00:51:01.360
<v Speaker 1>It would just be bad fantasy management. From my standpoint,

852
00:51:01.440 --> 00:51:05.679
<v Speaker 1>I don't look, this is a this is a guy

853
00:51:05.760 --> 00:51:08.199
<v Speaker 1>that's got huge power, but it's huge swing and miss,

854
00:51:08.199 --> 00:51:10.920
<v Speaker 1>and he's swinging for the fences. And I just thought

855
00:51:11.000 --> 00:51:13.159
<v Speaker 1>the setup. I would have loved to see him go

856
00:51:13.760 --> 00:51:18.199
<v Speaker 1>one for five in the first game with a double. Uh,

857
00:51:18.360 --> 00:51:21.320
<v Speaker 1>I think, I mean you go, you go three home

858
00:51:21.400 --> 00:51:24.199
<v Speaker 1>runs and it's a stark and everybody's saying it's a stark.

859
00:51:24.239 --> 00:51:26.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean that's you know, can you imagine the mindset

860
00:51:27.039 --> 00:51:29.239
<v Speaker 1>you're in. I mean, now you're really going to swinging

861
00:51:29.239 --> 00:51:29.960
<v Speaker 1>for the fences.

862
00:51:30.920 --> 00:51:32.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you pretty well set the bar at a very

863
00:51:33.079 --> 00:51:36.320
<v Speaker 2>very high level. It's gonna be tough to maintain. Yeah,

864
00:51:36.400 --> 00:51:39.719
<v Speaker 2>when you're think his his ops that first game was

865
00:51:39.800 --> 00:51:45.599
<v Speaker 2>five or something like that. Yeah, yeah, ridiculous, but yeah,

866
00:51:45.880 --> 00:51:48.000
<v Speaker 2>you know what he brings to the table. If you

867
00:51:48.079 --> 00:51:50.239
<v Speaker 2>need power, it's pretty tough to keep him on your

868
00:51:50.239 --> 00:51:52.480
<v Speaker 2>bench because he at any point in time, he could

869
00:51:52.519 --> 00:51:55.480
<v Speaker 2>hit one out of the bar. Okay, it depends on

870
00:51:55.599 --> 00:52:02.119
<v Speaker 2>where you're at, what you need in your lineup and

871
00:52:02.159 --> 00:52:04.760
<v Speaker 2>go according like, yeah, I can't fold anybody for senting

872
00:52:04.800 --> 00:52:07.760
<v Speaker 2>them or starting them either way could prove to be

873
00:52:07.760 --> 00:52:11.159
<v Speaker 2>a winner. We we don't know, we have no idea

874
00:52:11.199 --> 00:52:11.960
<v Speaker 2>what's going to happen.

875
00:52:13.440 --> 00:52:18.679
<v Speaker 1>Let's take a look at his splits. Let's go to

876
00:52:18.719 --> 00:52:22.480
<v Speaker 1>the minor leagues. Did it do his minor league splits? Here?

877
00:52:22.599 --> 00:52:27.920
<v Speaker 1>Let's take a look. He might wonder if he struggles

878
00:52:27.920 --> 00:52:32.800
<v Speaker 1>against the right handed hitters, right hand at pitching. Oh love,

879
00:52:32.840 --> 00:52:36.199
<v Speaker 1>there it is. My screen went blank here for a second.

880
00:52:38.480 --> 00:52:45.159
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's it's twenty four home runs against right handed,

881
00:52:45.599 --> 00:52:48.239
<v Speaker 1>thirteen against left handed. But he had half as many.

882
00:52:48.239 --> 00:52:51.800
<v Speaker 1>Now there's really no splits. A little bit better against

883
00:52:51.880 --> 00:52:55.559
<v Speaker 1>left handed, Yeah, a lot better, I'm sorry. Seven hundred

884
00:52:55.599 --> 00:52:59.599
<v Speaker 1>slug against left hand or right handed pitching. I mean

885
00:52:59.639 --> 00:53:03.000
<v Speaker 1>it's fine, twenty six. So he crushes left handed pitching.

886
00:53:03.039 --> 00:53:06.039
<v Speaker 2>But I mean there he says, thank you, Matthew Boyd.

887
00:53:06.760 --> 00:53:09.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, So two eighty two three forty seven seven

888
00:53:09.960 --> 00:53:13.480
<v Speaker 1>hundred slash line against left handed pitching. Two forty three

889
00:53:13.559 --> 00:53:17.000
<v Speaker 1>sixteen five twenty six still very good against writing and pitching,

890
00:53:17.039 --> 00:53:20.239
<v Speaker 1>but he definitely crushes left handers. So it's a two

891
00:53:20.280 --> 00:53:27.400
<v Speaker 1>hundred more and ops against a left handed pitching. So yeah, anyway,

892
00:53:27.639 --> 00:53:32.280
<v Speaker 1>just throwing numbers out for everybody. Take it as you wish.

893
00:53:32.440 --> 00:53:36.079
<v Speaker 1>I right, mercifully. The Dodgers put Edwin Diaz on the IL.

894
00:53:36.239 --> 00:53:39.119
<v Speaker 1>I mean tim it. It was ridiculous. I mean, I

895
00:53:39.360 --> 00:53:41.519
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if he's heard, I don't know what's

896
00:53:41.559 --> 00:53:43.400
<v Speaker 1>going on. Awful.

897
00:53:44.599 --> 00:53:46.360
<v Speaker 2>The trump had turned into a kazoo.

898
00:53:47.159 --> 00:53:49.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean it was wow. I don't ifin they rushed

899
00:53:49.920 --> 00:53:52.960
<v Speaker 1>him back. I don't know what had But I mean,

900
00:53:53.079 --> 00:53:55.440
<v Speaker 1>my question for first of all, who gets a saves.

901
00:53:55.480 --> 00:53:57.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm assuming it's Tanner Scott.

902
00:53:58.800 --> 00:54:03.079
<v Speaker 2>I think Vashiar could get one or two. I wouldn't

903
00:54:03.119 --> 00:54:05.000
<v Speaker 2>pay a big buck to find out. But at the

904
00:54:05.000 --> 00:54:07.239
<v Speaker 2>same point in time, if you're sitting in your waiver wire,

905
00:54:07.360 --> 00:54:10.800
<v Speaker 2>if you're sitting in your free agent pool, yeah, Investia

906
00:54:10.880 --> 00:54:13.079
<v Speaker 2>for a buck or two might not be a bad pickup.

907
00:54:15.519 --> 00:54:17.760
<v Speaker 1>My question for you is next season. I mean he

908
00:54:17.920 --> 00:54:21.280
<v Speaker 1>is at DS top five closer off the board this year,

909
00:54:21.320 --> 00:54:23.440
<v Speaker 1>maybe in the top three closer off the board. I

910
00:54:23.480 --> 00:54:26.360
<v Speaker 1>know I took him and it's been a disaster. Fortunately

911
00:54:26.360 --> 00:54:29.480
<v Speaker 1>I did handcuff him with Tanner Scott, which worked out okay.

912
00:54:29.880 --> 00:54:35.159
<v Speaker 1>But is this draft status going to fall to a

913
00:54:35.199 --> 00:54:38.039
<v Speaker 1>point of maybe no longer a top five, top ten

914
00:54:38.119 --> 00:54:41.960
<v Speaker 1>closer or will people just assume it was he wasn't

915
00:54:42.000 --> 00:54:45.199
<v Speaker 1>ready and make start making excuses and he'll go off

916
00:54:45.199 --> 00:54:47.239
<v Speaker 1>the board very high as a closer.

917
00:54:48.119 --> 00:54:51.559
<v Speaker 2>Top five it is healthy and can prove it. Yeah,

918
00:54:52.079 --> 00:54:54.880
<v Speaker 2>people will be watching very closely to see what happens

919
00:54:55.559 --> 00:54:58.719
<v Speaker 2>when I'm assuming he returns off the IL last year,

920
00:54:59.119 --> 00:55:01.159
<v Speaker 2>if he's one hundred percent healthy, Yeah, he's going to

921
00:55:01.239 --> 00:55:04.199
<v Speaker 2>go as somewhere between three and five.

922
00:55:04.800 --> 00:55:08.760
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's break this down. He doesn't return this season,

923
00:55:10.000 --> 00:55:12.719
<v Speaker 1>and you've got an early draft before the season starts.

924
00:55:12.719 --> 00:55:15.079
<v Speaker 1>Over going to the assumption this season's going to start

925
00:55:15.119 --> 00:55:16.320
<v Speaker 1>as normal, what do you do.

926
00:55:17.639 --> 00:55:22.679
<v Speaker 2>I'm taking Louis Ireland or you own Durant or Racio

927
00:55:22.760 --> 00:55:25.559
<v Speaker 2>la Glaciers ahead of him. That's what I'm going to do.

928
00:55:25.719 --> 00:55:28.400
<v Speaker 1>Top ten, top fifteen, what do you.

929
00:55:28.360 --> 00:55:32.960
<v Speaker 2>Do he's gonna go? I still think top five. I

930
00:55:32.960 --> 00:55:35.280
<v Speaker 2>think he'll go ahead of Louis Ireland. I think he'll

931
00:55:35.280 --> 00:55:38.760
<v Speaker 2>probably go ahead of Brian Baker the raise. They switch

932
00:55:39.199 --> 00:55:41.880
<v Speaker 2>closers around every twelve months, whether they need to or not.

933
00:55:42.760 --> 00:55:44.880
<v Speaker 2>I think he's going to go top five.

934
00:55:46.000 --> 00:55:48.199
<v Speaker 1>Really, even if he doesn't play the rest of the

935
00:55:48.239 --> 00:55:50.880
<v Speaker 1>season and all we have is this turd that he

936
00:55:50.960 --> 00:55:57.360
<v Speaker 1>had over the last month. Yeah, wow, I'm not doing that.

937
00:55:58.440 --> 00:56:00.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm not doing it. I'm not doing it. I'm not

938
00:56:00.400 --> 00:56:03.000
<v Speaker 2>doing it either, Rich. That's where I think. That's where

939
00:56:03.000 --> 00:56:03.840
<v Speaker 2>I think will happen.

940
00:56:04.440 --> 00:56:08.360
<v Speaker 1>Wow, Wow, what's wrong with people? Tim? You can't do that?

941
00:56:09.639 --> 00:56:12.719
<v Speaker 2>Well? Yeah, I know, you also can't pick up Louis

942
00:56:12.800 --> 00:56:16.239
<v Speaker 2>Ireland in every league or you know what I mean? Yeah?

943
00:56:16.400 --> 00:56:22.280
<v Speaker 2>Or am I okay? Yeah, He's got a history of

944
00:56:22.320 --> 00:56:24.639
<v Speaker 2>being one of the best bullpen arms we've seen over

945
00:56:24.679 --> 00:56:28.159
<v Speaker 2>the past ten years. It's hard to ignore that. I

946
00:56:28.239 --> 00:56:33.239
<v Speaker 2>get it. I can ignore it. I think I I

947
00:56:33.239 --> 00:56:36.320
<v Speaker 2>can find closers when I need closers, So I am

948
00:56:36.400 --> 00:56:41.239
<v Speaker 2>not as concerned about closers on draft day as maybe

949
00:56:41.280 --> 00:56:45.840
<v Speaker 2>some people are. But if I have a choice between

950
00:56:46.880 --> 00:56:51.280
<v Speaker 2>Louis Arland or a Dias, it's an easy decision for me. Yeah,

951
00:56:51.840 --> 00:56:53.519
<v Speaker 2>or Glaciers Derby.

952
00:56:53.679 --> 00:56:56.480
<v Speaker 1>What about Lats I mean down in Texas has been fantastic.

953
00:56:57.719 --> 00:57:02.039
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, he's obviously the man standing right.

954
00:57:01.920 --> 00:57:03.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean that was a that was a good call.

955
00:57:03.599 --> 00:57:04.599
<v Speaker 1>But I picked him up.

956
00:57:04.880 --> 00:57:08.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, that would go well yeah, yeah, I mean.

957
00:57:09.000 --> 00:57:12.480
<v Speaker 1>Dylan Smith has still got a chance. I haven't completely

958
00:57:12.519 --> 00:57:18.280
<v Speaker 1>shot Dylan Smith. Yeah, still got a chance. Uh well,

959
00:57:18.679 --> 00:57:25.400
<v Speaker 1>last question here. Cal Quantrell gets out, gets out of Colorado,

960
00:57:25.679 --> 00:57:28.239
<v Speaker 1>and he was actually pretty good before he went to Colorado.

961
00:57:28.320 --> 00:57:31.039
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I forgot if he signed or got traded.

962
00:57:31.039 --> 00:57:34.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't remember how he wound up. But he's he's back,

963
00:57:34.440 --> 00:57:37.440
<v Speaker 1>posting a two seventy nine ear in his last seven stars,

964
00:57:37.480 --> 00:57:42.880
<v Speaker 1>a couple of wins, not many strikeouts. Thoughts on cal quantrelle.

965
00:57:43.440 --> 00:57:46.840
<v Speaker 2>He's proving to be the Andrew Abbot before Andrew Abbot

966
00:57:47.320 --> 00:57:49.360
<v Speaker 2>showed up. Does that make sense?

967
00:57:49.760 --> 00:57:51.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

968
00:57:52.039 --> 00:57:56.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he's an okay picture. Oh, he doesn't strike out enough.

969
00:57:57.599 --> 00:58:01.199
<v Speaker 2>There are limitations, but the same point in time when

970
00:58:01.199 --> 00:58:03.880
<v Speaker 2>he gets on a tear as we've seen, Yeah, two

971
00:58:03.960 --> 00:58:08.039
<v Speaker 2>seventy ninety arra over the past seven starts. Yeah you

972
00:58:08.159 --> 00:58:12.039
<v Speaker 2>got you got a roster um. It's like for me,

973
00:58:12.239 --> 00:58:14.199
<v Speaker 2>like I looked at Brandon Fat the same sort of

974
00:58:14.280 --> 00:58:17.400
<v Speaker 2>situation at some point in time. Okay, it's all gonna

975
00:58:17.639 --> 00:58:19.480
<v Speaker 2>it's all gonna go to hell in a handbasket. And

976
00:58:19.519 --> 00:58:21.920
<v Speaker 2>the same thing will probably happen with cal Quandrille, and

977
00:58:22.239 --> 00:58:24.360
<v Speaker 2>we see it off and on with Andrew Vert those

978
00:58:24.599 --> 00:58:28.400
<v Speaker 2>that type of picture will and has the potential to

979
00:58:28.599 --> 00:58:31.880
<v Speaker 2>run off seven to ten games where you want them

980
00:58:32.559 --> 00:58:36.400
<v Speaker 2>in your lineup. Okay, And he's at that stage right

981
00:58:36.480 --> 00:58:39.000
<v Speaker 2>now where you want him in your lineup. He's pitching,

982
00:58:39.079 --> 00:58:43.039
<v Speaker 2>well are you Are you married to him? No? Definitely not.

983
00:58:43.320 --> 00:58:46.480
<v Speaker 2>You've got to realize those limitations. But as long as

984
00:58:46.559 --> 00:58:49.599
<v Speaker 2>he's getting it done, get him active.

985
00:58:50.840 --> 00:58:53.280
<v Speaker 1>Take our final break, Tim come back, and let's figure

986
00:58:53.280 --> 00:58:54.920
<v Speaker 1>out how you're gonna be picking up this weekend? Is

987
00:58:54.960 --> 00:58:55.920
<v Speaker 1>there anybody to pick up?

988
00:59:05.159 --> 00:59:05.679
<v Speaker 2>Fun jokes?

989
00:59:05.719 --> 00:59:07.760
<v Speaker 1>And we made it. Thanks again for coming in a

990
00:59:07.800 --> 00:59:10.079
<v Speaker 1>little world way, and it did help because we were

991
00:59:10.119 --> 00:59:12.519
<v Speaker 1>able to get a full hour in who are you

992
00:59:12.559 --> 00:59:14.480
<v Speaker 1>picking up? Give me a picture, give me a hitter.

993
00:59:15.679 --> 00:59:20.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, this could be a really, really light of Waiver wire, like,

994
00:59:21.280 --> 00:59:23.960
<v Speaker 2>the obvious answer is for a picture is Kate Anderson,

995
00:59:24.079 --> 00:59:26.039
<v Speaker 2>But I think he's rostered to the tune of eighty

996
00:59:26.159 --> 00:59:29.719
<v Speaker 2>percent now in CBS Yahoo leagues is I think it's very,

997
00:59:29.840 --> 00:59:32.599
<v Speaker 2>very low. I think somebody said twenty three percent. And

998
00:59:32.760 --> 00:59:35.480
<v Speaker 2>my answer to that is nobody's playing in most Most

999
00:59:35.599 --> 00:59:38.760
<v Speaker 2>Yahoo leagues have been abandoned by now with the race

1000
00:59:38.920 --> 00:59:41.480
<v Speaker 2>down to two or three teams, everybody's moved to football

1001
00:59:43.360 --> 00:59:48.039
<v Speaker 2>as fart. Sorry for the sort of snarkiness.

1002
00:59:48.000 --> 00:59:49.719
<v Speaker 1>How I like how you say yeah. I like how

1003
00:59:49.760 --> 00:59:53.920
<v Speaker 1>you say yeahoo so yeah who. Well, it's funny because

1004
00:59:54.000 --> 00:59:58.320
<v Speaker 1>Laurie and I were talking about excuse, say pasta not pasta,

1005
00:59:58.800 --> 01:00:02.159
<v Speaker 1>but I think meally, and it might even be with

1006
01:00:02.400 --> 01:00:06.719
<v Speaker 1>English speaking, it's it's actually a long a, So pasta

1007
01:00:06.840 --> 01:00:10.039
<v Speaker 1>is probably the correct pronunciation. But here in America we

1008
01:00:10.159 --> 01:00:14.280
<v Speaker 1>say pasta, and we also say Yahoo as opposed to Yahoo,

1009
01:00:14.360 --> 01:00:17.760
<v Speaker 1>but it's probably phonetically a long a as well. So

1010
01:00:18.760 --> 01:00:22.119
<v Speaker 1>just FYI, as people are laughing at their phones as

1011
01:00:22.199 --> 01:00:26.360
<v Speaker 1>you say Yahoo, tim, it probably is yeah.

1012
01:00:27.639 --> 01:00:33.159
<v Speaker 2>So anyway, but yeah, yeah, I take it in the

1013
01:00:33.239 --> 01:00:38.280
<v Speaker 2>constant context of referring to a group of individuals as

1014
01:00:38.360 --> 01:00:43.960
<v Speaker 2>Yahoo's okay, that's probably where I get it from. Uh pictures. Yeah,

1015
01:00:44.440 --> 01:00:47.960
<v Speaker 2>obviously Anderson's out there. Just remember you're getting six starts

1016
01:00:48.199 --> 01:00:52.320
<v Speaker 2>and also they might be very good starts. Yeah, so

1017
01:00:52.599 --> 01:00:55.320
<v Speaker 2>if Anderson's out there, he would be my choice. I

1018
01:00:55.920 --> 01:01:03.039
<v Speaker 2>I'm looking at hey, everybody needs to get their ship

1019
01:01:03.199 --> 01:01:05.400
<v Speaker 2>to port and without a tug boat? How do you

1020
01:01:05.519 --> 01:01:05.719
<v Speaker 2>do it?

1021
01:01:06.599 --> 01:01:09.840
<v Speaker 1>Matt Wilkinson? Oh, Lord, actually pitched pretty well.

1022
01:01:10.920 --> 01:01:16.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah, how can I pass on a guy that

1023
01:01:16.360 --> 01:01:19.199
<v Speaker 2>I know we will spend on a Sunday fifteen minutes

1024
01:01:19.519 --> 01:01:22.599
<v Speaker 2>discussing body type? Yeah, just for you Rich.

1025
01:01:23.360 --> 01:01:28.079
<v Speaker 1>Look, Matti, they said the former Cleveland Guardian six five

1026
01:01:28.159 --> 01:01:32.199
<v Speaker 1>eleven six feet, about three hundred pounds, throws eighty nine

1027
01:01:32.280 --> 01:01:35.280
<v Speaker 1>ninety miles an hour. But it's a funky delivery. No

1028
01:01:35.440 --> 01:01:38.880
<v Speaker 1>one picks it up. Well, I mean, he won't be

1029
01:01:39.000 --> 01:01:41.239
<v Speaker 1>very good long term, but can he have some early

1030
01:01:41.320 --> 01:01:45.960
<v Speaker 1>success until you know, people pitching coaches start to break

1031
01:01:46.039 --> 01:01:49.039
<v Speaker 1>down everything. Yeah, I think he could. So, I mean

1032
01:01:49.079 --> 01:01:53.199
<v Speaker 1>it's not a horrible call, but don't overdraft him next

1033
01:01:53.239 --> 01:01:55.599
<v Speaker 1>season because of the sess he might have the end

1034
01:01:55.639 --> 01:01:56.320
<v Speaker 1>of the season here.

1035
01:01:57.480 --> 01:01:59.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I want to see him park a few boats

1036
01:02:00.119 --> 01:02:03.199
<v Speaker 2>before I decide to invest in the Doug boat. Okay,

1037
01:02:03.360 --> 01:02:06.960
<v Speaker 2>yeah it's but again, it's a really really lean week hitters.

1038
01:02:07.039 --> 01:02:10.440
<v Speaker 2>I haven't a clue. The only guy that is creating

1039
01:02:10.519 --> 01:02:14.960
<v Speaker 2>a mess for Cooper Pratt owners and Joey Ortiz owners

1040
01:02:15.840 --> 01:02:19.559
<v Speaker 2>David Hamilton. I haven't checked to see what his level

1041
01:02:21.039 --> 01:02:25.679
<v Speaker 2>of ownership is in CBS leagues. But you know, David

1042
01:02:25.760 --> 01:02:30.199
<v Speaker 2>Hamilton has been really playing well the past several weeks.

1043
01:02:30.239 --> 01:02:32.360
<v Speaker 2>He had a monster game. This one of his games

1044
01:02:32.400 --> 01:02:35.400
<v Speaker 2>this week, it's a homer pile of arv eyes run

1045
01:02:35.519 --> 01:02:39.920
<v Speaker 2>score and he stole two bases. David Hamilton's an early

1046
01:02:40.000 --> 01:02:41.199
<v Speaker 2>thought when it comes to hitters.

1047
01:02:41.960 --> 01:02:44.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it was on the eighteenth, three for five home

1048
01:02:45.039 --> 01:02:47.519
<v Speaker 1>run to run score, two stolen basis.

1049
01:02:48.559 --> 01:02:51.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah, he's been playing well and he's making it

1050
01:02:51.840 --> 01:02:56.639
<v Speaker 2>a mess for all the other infielders that should have

1051
01:02:57.400 --> 01:02:59.760
<v Speaker 2>full time jobs there, and hey, good for David.

1052
01:03:01.199 --> 01:03:04.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Cooper Pratt is the guy long term though. That

1053
01:03:04.960 --> 01:03:08.679
<v Speaker 1>guy can really really hit. So but yeah, I saw

1054
01:03:09.559 --> 01:03:11.519
<v Speaker 1>I was looking at because I have Cooper Pratt coming

1055
01:03:11.559 --> 01:03:13.039
<v Speaker 1>off the eel. I was going to put him in,

1056
01:03:13.119 --> 01:03:15.119
<v Speaker 1>and I saw Joe your tea's got the start last

1057
01:03:15.199 --> 01:03:19.719
<v Speaker 1>night I'm like, what so, but hopefully Cooper Pratt will

1058
01:03:19.760 --> 01:03:21.719
<v Speaker 1>get in there. Timmy, that is a wrap, my friend.

1059
01:03:21.760 --> 01:03:24.320
<v Speaker 1>Thanks again for coming in early. Hope everybody enjoyed it.

1060
01:03:25.039 --> 01:03:27.719
