<v Speaker 1>know why, Tim, but we've moved it to Saturday for today.

5
00:00:36.880 --> 00:00:41.640
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know, I don't need another six to eight

6
00:00:41.640 --> 00:00:45.240
<v Speaker 2>weeks of winter rich now, So I'm gonna I'm gonna

7
00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:48.119
<v Speaker 2>let that little room do his thing without interfering with

8
00:00:48.200 --> 00:00:51.520
<v Speaker 2>the with our weather up here in our podcast. Did

9
00:00:51.560 --> 00:00:51.920
<v Speaker 2>you see that?

10
00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:55.759
<v Speaker 1>Okay, yeah, sure, yeah. Did you see the movie groundhog.

11
00:00:55.399 --> 00:00:58.280
<v Speaker 2>Day over and over?

12
00:00:58.439 --> 00:01:03.439
<v Speaker 1>And yes, a great movie. It's a great movie. Yeah, yeah,

13
00:01:03.479 --> 00:01:06.519
<v Speaker 1>so yeah, I think a groundhog Day more about the

14
00:01:06.560 --> 00:01:09.879
<v Speaker 1>movie than I do about Punk Satawny Phil, which is

15
00:01:09.920 --> 00:01:13.519
<v Speaker 1>you know, obviously the the little what is it a groundhog?

16
00:01:13.560 --> 00:01:15.599
<v Speaker 1>I guess it's a groundhog that comes out and they

17
00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:17.519
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's they look at the weather forecast, so

18
00:01:17.599 --> 00:01:19.319
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be six more weeks of winter.

19
00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:22.760
<v Speaker 2>So well I buy a laugh because where I live,

20
00:01:24.239 --> 00:01:27.760
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't matter. He can predict that it's gonna happen. Anyways. Okay,

21
00:01:27.799 --> 00:01:30.599
<v Speaker 2>we got to change it for us northern to like

22
00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:33.079
<v Speaker 2>maybe twelve weeks a winter or something like that. Give

23
00:01:33.120 --> 00:01:34.079
<v Speaker 2>the guy a chance.

24
00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:36.799
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we're back up here in New Jersey. Tim So

25
00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:41.840
<v Speaker 1>drove up yesterday or the last two days, and my

26
00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:44.280
<v Speaker 1>wife and I had a It was a good trip.

27
00:01:44.920 --> 00:01:47.239
<v Speaker 1>First day was really good. Second day it rained a

28
00:01:47.239 --> 00:01:49.319
<v Speaker 1>good part of the of the trip, so that kind

29
00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:52.159
<v Speaker 1>of stunk. And there was another plane crash. We had

30
00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:55.359
<v Speaker 1>two plane crashes this week, which is really spooky. And

31
00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:59.959
<v Speaker 1>we went through Philadelphia about three hours before that. That's

32
00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:02.840
<v Speaker 1>second plane crash happened last night. It's kind of weird,

33
00:02:02.920 --> 00:02:05.519
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's kind of ominous. I mean, went very

34
00:02:05.519 --> 00:02:09.800
<v Speaker 1>close by it. Yeah, so it's really weird stuff happening.

35
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:12.960
<v Speaker 2>Yes, very much. So. I believe that was a METAVAC

36
00:02:13.039 --> 00:02:14.800
<v Speaker 2>flight if I'm not mistaken.

37
00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:17.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, taking up taking us a young girl who was

38
00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:20.560
<v Speaker 1>having treatment on her final treatment done. They never said what,

39
00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:24.400
<v Speaker 1>but the final treatment done in Philadelphia, which apparently Philadelphia

40
00:02:24.479 --> 00:02:29.840
<v Speaker 1>is a very big city for providing global care that.

41
00:02:29.919 --> 00:02:32.560
<v Speaker 1>You know, these metavac planes kind of come in and

42
00:02:32.599 --> 00:02:35.719
<v Speaker 1>I actually know a guy who runs a company that

43
00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:39.639
<v Speaker 1>does that kind of stuff and it's pretty remarkable work.

44
00:02:40.120 --> 00:02:42.879
<v Speaker 2>Yeah that Yeah, I wasn't aware of it, but I

45
00:02:42.919 --> 00:02:45.759
<v Speaker 2>am certainly aware of Medovac as I've been privy to

46
00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:49.719
<v Speaker 2>it up close to personal. I have nothing but good

47
00:02:49.759 --> 00:02:54.319
<v Speaker 2>things to say about the Metavac services where I live.

48
00:02:55.560 --> 00:02:56.800
<v Speaker 2>Ye saved my life.

49
00:02:57.240 --> 00:02:59.479
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I don't know. I don't know if this is

50
00:02:59.520 --> 00:03:03.360
<v Speaker 1>a profit Metavac the one my friend runs, and there's

51
00:03:03.400 --> 00:03:05.520
<v Speaker 1>a lot of them that go around the country here

52
00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:08.960
<v Speaker 1>that there are private citizens who have airplanes and it's

53
00:03:08.960 --> 00:03:13.599
<v Speaker 1>a nonprofit and you know, they do this stuff gratus,

54
00:03:13.800 --> 00:03:17.039
<v Speaker 1>you know, they they you know, they basically they'll get

55
00:03:17.080 --> 00:03:19.240
<v Speaker 1>a schedule to go pick up so and so from

56
00:03:19.560 --> 00:03:21.759
<v Speaker 1>you know, somewhere in the country and poured them to

57
00:03:21.800 --> 00:03:24.680
<v Speaker 1>another place to get you know, whatever. It's usually not

58
00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:29.319
<v Speaker 1>emergency medical care, but it's it's uh, you know, maybe

59
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:31.680
<v Speaker 1>cancer treatment or something like that, or some kind of

60
00:03:31.719 --> 00:03:36.080
<v Speaker 1>surgery that only Children's Hospital and Minnesota can do it, right,

61
00:03:36.280 --> 00:03:38.400
<v Speaker 1>So they'll they'll take the person there. And it's actually

62
00:03:38.439 --> 00:03:41.759
<v Speaker 1>a wonderful it's a wonderful nonprofit that does that, and

63
00:03:41.759 --> 00:03:45.000
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of that exists here. Yeah, you know,

64
00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:48.759
<v Speaker 1>it's it's one of those kind of strange, little unknown

65
00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:51.199
<v Speaker 1>things that happened in day to day lives that people

66
00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:52.199
<v Speaker 1>don't even know what's happening.

67
00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:59.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, philanthropy by a Yeah, yeah, No, I I wasn't

68
00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:03.520
<v Speaker 2>aware of that. It all up here. Uh, it's just

69
00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:09.319
<v Speaker 2>part of the socialized medical procedure. And I can very

70
00:04:09.319 --> 00:04:12.000
<v Speaker 2>happily say I got a bill for absolutely nothing for

71
00:04:12.039 --> 00:04:14.800
<v Speaker 2>that plane trip and appreciate it in a big way.

72
00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:17.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah. So, so I had a we had a

73
00:04:17.360 --> 00:04:21.399
<v Speaker 1>Tim McCloud conversation. You made our nine hour drive back?

74
00:04:22.480 --> 00:04:24.000
<v Speaker 2>What what did? What did I do?

75
00:04:24.279 --> 00:04:29.040
<v Speaker 1>It was? It was it was funny. So so we're so,

76
00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:33.199
<v Speaker 1>I guess the navigational system saw something, you know, down

77
00:04:33.240 --> 00:04:35.040
<v Speaker 1>the turnpike and didn't want us to go down the

78
00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:37.639
<v Speaker 1>Jersey Turnpike, so they sent us through the back roads

79
00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:40.600
<v Speaker 1>of New Jersey. So we're in these little small farming

80
00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:43.839
<v Speaker 1>towns kind of riding through the country, and we happened

81
00:04:43.920 --> 00:04:48.959
<v Speaker 1>upon a fairly large cemetery that you're you know, you're

82
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:52.480
<v Speaker 1>looking at it, going, have we seen that many houses

83
00:04:52.519 --> 00:04:55.199
<v Speaker 1>to like fill up a cemetery because it was pretty sparse.

84
00:04:55.759 --> 00:04:58.240
<v Speaker 1>I said, wow, it's like, so I saw it. I said, wait,

85
00:04:58.399 --> 00:05:00.560
<v Speaker 1>I said, that's a pretty large cemetery for such a

86
00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:04.319
<v Speaker 1>small areas. And Lorie goes everybody's dying to get there.

87
00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:08.000
<v Speaker 1>And I said, oh my gosh, you've become Tim McLeod.

88
00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:11.879
<v Speaker 1>We all laughed and said, was that a really bad

89
00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:25.240
<v Speaker 1>dad joke? I go, I think it was exactly I was.

90
00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:28.319
<v Speaker 1>I thought you would like that. It's definitely something Tim

91
00:05:28.360 --> 00:05:30.240
<v Speaker 1>would say. It's just I mean it. And it was

92
00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:33.120
<v Speaker 1>so natural too, and it's like, wow, I'm doing the

93
00:05:33.199 --> 00:05:35.839
<v Speaker 1>podcast now with my wife and she's playing Tim. This

94
00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:43.680
<v Speaker 1>is crazy. It was great. It was it was very

95
00:05:43.720 --> 00:05:47.519
<v Speaker 1>very good. So timmy. We had a few signings this week.

96
00:05:47.519 --> 00:05:50.639
<v Speaker 1>It's sexually slowed down. No Pete Alonza yet, no Jack Flaherty.

97
00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:53.279
<v Speaker 1>Get a little concerned about Jack flerty to draft them

98
00:05:53.279 --> 00:05:55.920
<v Speaker 1>on my NBC team. He better signed in the next

99
00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:58.439
<v Speaker 1>two weeks or I'm in deep trouble there. And then

100
00:05:58.439 --> 00:06:01.959
<v Speaker 1>Pete Alonzo apparently is pissed that Scott Boris for not

101
00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:04.879
<v Speaker 1>getting him a deal, so at least that's what's being

102
00:06:04.920 --> 00:06:05.920
<v Speaker 1>reported everywhere.

103
00:06:06.439 --> 00:06:08.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and Alex Bergman still hasn't found a home.

104
00:06:09.439 --> 00:06:12.519
<v Speaker 1>That's true. I mean, I mean, Boris had so many

105
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:15.240
<v Speaker 1>of the big, big free agents like he normally does,

106
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:18.319
<v Speaker 1>and obviously Juan Soto signed a big fan fear but

107
00:06:18.399 --> 00:06:19.920
<v Speaker 1>a lot of the other guys have not yet.

108
00:06:20.680 --> 00:06:24.720
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, and the lock sticking. Yeah, and after what

109
00:06:24.759 --> 00:06:28.439
<v Speaker 2>we've seen in the past couple of years, I'm sitting

110
00:06:28.439 --> 00:06:30.920
<v Speaker 2>in the same chair as you are when it comes

111
00:06:30.959 --> 00:06:33.240
<v Speaker 2>to if they haven't signed, what am I doing? I

112
00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:35.639
<v Speaker 2>know what I'm doing. I'm just staying away.

113
00:06:36.120 --> 00:06:40.360
<v Speaker 1>And I think, yeah, I think I should have done

114
00:06:40.399 --> 00:06:42.399
<v Speaker 1>that with Jack Flaherty, But it was one of those

115
00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:44.519
<v Speaker 1>situations where he was in the queue and he was

116
00:06:44.639 --> 00:06:46.959
<v Speaker 1>he'd been sitting there for a while and whatever he was,

117
00:06:47.160 --> 00:06:50.079
<v Speaker 1>he was, his ADP was he had fallen a lot,

118
00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:52.720
<v Speaker 1>and I thought it was right value. And but maybe

119
00:06:52.720 --> 00:06:55.199
<v Speaker 1>I shouldn't have taken I'm just given the risk that's

120
00:06:55.240 --> 00:06:56.240
<v Speaker 1>associated with him.

121
00:06:57.439 --> 00:06:59.360
<v Speaker 2>Well, let's hope he signs in the next couple of

122
00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:02.160
<v Speaker 2>weeks and all will be forgotten, right.

123
00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:04.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we'll be forgotten. Speaking of a Scott Barris client,

124
00:07:04.879 --> 00:07:08.160
<v Speaker 1>he did get Hassan Kim for people forget that. Scott

125
00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:11.759
<v Speaker 1>Boris does represent him. Two year deal with the Rays

126
00:07:11.800 --> 00:07:14.720
<v Speaker 1>and opt out after the first year. Scott bars has

127
00:07:14.720 --> 00:07:18.000
<v Speaker 1>suggested that he's going to return after having laboram surgery

128
00:07:18.079 --> 00:07:21.480
<v Speaker 1>in September. He's going to return. Tim of course in April.

129
00:07:22.800 --> 00:07:26.120
<v Speaker 1>A j Preller was was reported saying it's probably more

130
00:07:26.199 --> 00:07:29.000
<v Speaker 1>like May June, maybe even later than that. So who

131
00:07:29.040 --> 00:07:32.160
<v Speaker 1>do you believe, Tim? When is Hassan Ken going to

132
00:07:32.199 --> 00:07:33.120
<v Speaker 1>play his first game?

133
00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:41.360
<v Speaker 2>Uh? Who has the vested interest there? He's not coming

134
00:07:41.399 --> 00:07:43.560
<v Speaker 2>back any I'd be shocked if he's back in April,

135
00:07:43.600 --> 00:07:46.920
<v Speaker 2>coming off that surgery. I think you could be looking

136
00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:50.639
<v Speaker 2>at May June, maybe maybe closer to the All Star break.

137
00:07:50.959 --> 00:07:53.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think it is a bit of a It

138
00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:54.920
<v Speaker 1>is a bit of a bummer because I do like

139
00:07:55.199 --> 00:07:58.040
<v Speaker 1>Carson Williams. I thought he would be a nice like

140
00:07:58.480 --> 00:08:03.120
<v Speaker 1>Lake grabbing a often holdly, but I don't think so. Now.

141
00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:05.399
<v Speaker 1>I think they're probably gonna limp my until Kim is

142
00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:06.439
<v Speaker 1>ready by mid season.

143
00:08:06.959 --> 00:08:09.959
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they'll go with those Walls. I guess it is

144
00:08:11.079 --> 00:08:15.000
<v Speaker 2>mat short. Brandon Lowe's got second base, it looks like

145
00:08:15.160 --> 00:08:17.560
<v Speaker 2>so as soon as he's ready to go, Walls gets

146
00:08:17.639 --> 00:08:22.319
<v Speaker 2>pushed back into a bench roll and Kim gets a

147
00:08:22.480 --> 00:08:27.920
<v Speaker 2>job and Carson Williams will have another full year to

148
00:08:28.040 --> 00:08:31.759
<v Speaker 2>better himself down on the farm. Man. I believe there's

149
00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:36.320
<v Speaker 2>an opt out on this deal as well, So yeah,

150
00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:38.279
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if Kim will be around for the

151
00:08:38.320 --> 00:08:41.000
<v Speaker 2>second second year of this deal. I guess a lot

152
00:08:41.080 --> 00:08:43.679
<v Speaker 2>will depend on how he looks on the field when

153
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:46.279
<v Speaker 2>he gets back on it. Right, So let me ask.

154
00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:49.200
<v Speaker 1>You a question. So just this just occurred to I mean,

155
00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:54.000
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of examples of mob bosses out there, Timmy,

156
00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:56.879
<v Speaker 1>in the world today, and we won't talk about them.

157
00:08:56.879 --> 00:09:00.200
<v Speaker 1>But are the Tampa Bay Rays a mob boss? Are

158
00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:04.279
<v Speaker 1>they not allowing these young kids to come up like

159
00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:08.519
<v Speaker 1>a Carson Williams until they sign a team friendly contract?

160
00:09:08.519 --> 00:09:09.159
<v Speaker 1>What say you?

161
00:09:10.759 --> 00:09:11.000
<v Speaker 2>Yes?

162
00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, right, yeah.

163
00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:16.039
<v Speaker 2>I think it goes back a long way. Remember when

164
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:18.879
<v Speaker 2>Evan Longoria needed more seasoning and then he signed his

165
00:09:18.960 --> 00:09:21.559
<v Speaker 2>extension and he was playing on the on the big

166
00:09:21.639 --> 00:09:24.960
<v Speaker 2>league roster the next day. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's.

167
00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:28.840
<v Speaker 1>I have a tot of guys in the minor leagues,

168
00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:32.919
<v Speaker 1>tim that are getting close and without a they just

169
00:09:32.919 --> 00:09:35.039
<v Speaker 1>don't have a path to get there, and they keep

170
00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:36.799
<v Speaker 1>doing Hassan Kim kind of signings.

171
00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:41.279
<v Speaker 2>Well yeah, you know, two year deal, Yeah, yeah, ye

172
00:09:41.240 --> 00:09:43.720
<v Speaker 2>had I'm just going to say, I've got to raise

173
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:46.240
<v Speaker 2>up because I knew we were going to be talking

174
00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:49.679
<v Speaker 2>about them. But you know, when when you look at

175
00:09:49.720 --> 00:09:54.440
<v Speaker 2>players like you know, Brandon Lawe, Okay, he signed an extension.

176
00:09:54.879 --> 00:09:55.600
<v Speaker 1>He was up.

177
00:09:55.759 --> 00:10:01.120
<v Speaker 2>The only I don't believe Josh loaded or Ell was

178
00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:01.559
<v Speaker 2>a trade.

179
00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:04.519
<v Speaker 1>Kimario has not signed an extension, but it took him

180
00:10:04.519 --> 00:10:05.320
<v Speaker 1>forever to get up.

181
00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:10.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it took a while, and I think at some

182
00:10:10.200 --> 00:10:15.399
<v Speaker 2>point in time, media and public pressure comes into play.

183
00:10:15.639 --> 00:10:18.679
<v Speaker 2>How you keep a guy down like that forever? Yeah,

184
00:10:18.759 --> 00:10:21.519
<v Speaker 2>you really, you really can't. It's it's it's it's a

185
00:10:21.559 --> 00:10:25.919
<v Speaker 2>game of stubbornness. Does that sort of make sense? You know,

186
00:10:26.480 --> 00:10:29.600
<v Speaker 2>we're not going to bring these guys up until it's

187
00:10:29.639 --> 00:10:32.080
<v Speaker 2>advantageous for us to do it. And lost in the

188
00:10:32.080 --> 00:10:35.360
<v Speaker 2>whole process is the concept of winning baseball games.

189
00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:36.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

190
00:10:36.840 --> 00:10:39.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it becomes more about just purely the business and

191
00:10:39.879 --> 00:10:42.639
<v Speaker 2>maintaining control over these younger players for as long as

192
00:10:42.639 --> 00:10:52.000
<v Speaker 2>they can, which again it's tough to do. But where

193
00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:54.399
<v Speaker 2>the player like camin Arrow is doing, I think is

194
00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:55.000
<v Speaker 2>the right move.

195
00:10:56.480 --> 00:10:58.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I would not sign it. I would not sign

196
00:10:58.759 --> 00:11:01.240
<v Speaker 1>an extension with the rays of I'm as good as Caminario.

197
00:11:01.279 --> 00:11:04.159
<v Speaker 1>I would just yeah, I would try to get out

198
00:11:04.279 --> 00:11:06.399
<v Speaker 1>into free agent as soon as it can, because I

199
00:11:06.559 --> 00:11:08.559
<v Speaker 1>know I'm gonna leave in four years right, They're not

200
00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:10.519
<v Speaker 1>going to keep me if I'm any good. They're not

201
00:11:10.559 --> 00:11:12.759
<v Speaker 1>going to pay thirty million dollars a year for anybody.

202
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:17.200
<v Speaker 2>No, No, that's that's simply not gonna happen. And you

203
00:11:17.279 --> 00:11:20.960
<v Speaker 2>see the same thing with their pitching as as they approach,

204
00:11:21.759 --> 00:11:27.679
<v Speaker 2>as they approach, and the closer they get to free agency, well.

205
00:11:27.960 --> 00:11:31.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, shame that Clanahan will be moved on, and shame

206
00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:33.960
<v Speaker 1>bos and you know you fill in the blank. All

207
00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:36.080
<v Speaker 1>those guys, all those guys, you know, they'll just move on.

208
00:11:36.159 --> 00:11:38.240
<v Speaker 1>They got about another year or two each one of them.

209
00:11:38.799 --> 00:11:42.480
<v Speaker 1>But Clanahan used up his by his time by being hurt.

210
00:11:42.559 --> 00:11:45.639
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, it's still County. Is the clock still moving on?

211
00:11:46.519 --> 00:11:49.879
<v Speaker 2>Well exactly. And you know, as long as you can

212
00:11:49.960 --> 00:11:53.320
<v Speaker 2>backfill through your minor league system as a as a

213
00:11:53.399 --> 00:11:59.519
<v Speaker 2>strategic floyd, it sort of works. But at the same

214
00:11:59.559 --> 00:12:03.120
<v Speaker 2>point time sort of works means you will have a

215
00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:08.159
<v Speaker 2>good team, but never a team that contends for a

216
00:12:08.159 --> 00:12:14.159
<v Speaker 2>World Series. Yeah, yeah you can. Hey, I think the

217
00:12:14.240 --> 00:12:17.600
<v Speaker 2>race with their system will always have good teams, but

218
00:12:18.039 --> 00:12:20.679
<v Speaker 2>great teams know, because they won't bring in the missing

219
00:12:20.679 --> 00:12:23.279
<v Speaker 2>pieces the top.

220
00:12:23.519 --> 00:12:25.919
<v Speaker 1>So Hassan Kim is going as a twenty seventh to

221
00:12:26.159 --> 00:12:30.879
<v Speaker 1>seven shortstop off the board, which, so the NFC is saying,

222
00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:34.159
<v Speaker 1>at least people that are doing through early drafts is nah,

223
00:12:34.200 --> 00:12:39.039
<v Speaker 1>he's not coming back until second half at best. Are

224
00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:40.720
<v Speaker 1>you buying into that? Are you going to take him

225
00:12:40.720 --> 00:12:41.639
<v Speaker 1>a little bit earlier.

226
00:12:43.879 --> 00:12:50.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm I'm probably going to be looking at hoping he

227
00:12:50.360 --> 00:12:53.200
<v Speaker 2>falls a long ways and then I'll pick him up

228
00:12:53.200 --> 00:12:56.120
<v Speaker 2>and stash him. But in the NFC, there is nothing

229
00:12:56.159 --> 00:13:00.320
<v Speaker 2>to stash because they don't have an IL. So I

230
00:13:00.360 --> 00:13:03.279
<v Speaker 2>can see where in the NFBC his value should be

231
00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:06.080
<v Speaker 2>driven lower simply because you might have to sit on

232
00:13:06.159 --> 00:13:08.600
<v Speaker 2>him for three months on your bench. That's a tough

233
00:13:08.600 --> 00:13:11.240
<v Speaker 2>one when you've got no IL. If you've got an IL,

234
00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:13.759
<v Speaker 2>it's a different story. Then you can roll the dice fair,

235
00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:14.600
<v Speaker 2>but it's fair.

236
00:13:14.639 --> 00:13:15.200
<v Speaker 1>That's a good point.

237
00:13:15.879 --> 00:13:19.879
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, with no IL, I wouldn't be looking in an

238
00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:23.720
<v Speaker 2>NFBC format. I wouldn't be looking at Hasan Kim except

239
00:13:24.120 --> 00:13:30.440
<v Speaker 2>in a draft and hold situation where you should have

240
00:13:30.519 --> 00:13:31.679
<v Speaker 2>him for at least half the year.

241
00:13:32.159 --> 00:13:36.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Max Shu's are finally signs Timmy over the weekend.

242
00:13:36.200 --> 00:13:39.919
<v Speaker 1>He is His ADP is four ninety one fifty nine,

243
00:13:40.519 --> 00:13:43.200
<v Speaker 1>so one hundred and forty ninth pitcher off the board.

244
00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:48.080
<v Speaker 1>So nobody he's going in the Grant Holmes, Chris Bubick, Reed,

245
00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:51.679
<v Speaker 1>Debt Meer's, Calvin Falter, He's going way down. This is

246
00:13:51.720 --> 00:13:54.559
<v Speaker 1>a this is a Hall of Fame guy, Tim for

247
00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:56.919
<v Speaker 1>fifteen and a half million dollars. So if you've got

248
00:13:56.919 --> 00:13:59.320
<v Speaker 1>his pedigree, he's still going to get paid, which he

249
00:13:59.399 --> 00:14:02.120
<v Speaker 1>did by the chase. Do you like the signing? What

250
00:14:02.159 --> 00:14:03.720
<v Speaker 1>are you expecting of them this season?

251
00:14:04.639 --> 00:14:06.799
<v Speaker 2>I like the signing. He lost a lot of a

252
00:14:06.799 --> 00:14:08.679
<v Speaker 2>lot of time last year because I believe it was

253
00:14:08.759 --> 00:14:13.840
<v Speaker 2>a hamstring injury. Okay, And the two drafts I've done

254
00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:17.080
<v Speaker 2>this year, I've got yours in both. Oh wow, I

255
00:14:17.159 --> 00:14:19.679
<v Speaker 2>drafted I drafted him late. He was still sitting there

256
00:14:19.679 --> 00:14:22.399
<v Speaker 2>and I said, no, somebody's gonna somebody's gonna sign him.

257
00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:28.840
<v Speaker 2>I think if you can get I think it's possible

258
00:14:29.000 --> 00:14:30.840
<v Speaker 2>you could be looking at one hundred and forty to

259
00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:34.600
<v Speaker 2>one hundred and fifty innings of mid mid to high

260
00:14:34.600 --> 00:14:39.639
<v Speaker 2>three e er. So I'm happy with the signing. Uh,

261
00:14:39.679 --> 00:14:42.360
<v Speaker 2>he's not justin verlinder Old, but he's getting up there.

262
00:14:42.399 --> 00:14:44.440
<v Speaker 2>But I still think there's one hundred and forty one

263
00:14:44.480 --> 00:14:46.159
<v Speaker 2>hundred and fifty innings sitting there.

264
00:14:45.960 --> 00:14:48.600
<v Speaker 1>He's pretty close to Justin verland er old. I mean

265
00:14:49.000 --> 00:14:52.639
<v Speaker 1>maybe a year younger, two years, yeah, year or two Yeah,

266
00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:55.600
<v Speaker 1>So I mean it's I think we're splitting hairs. I look,

267
00:14:55.639 --> 00:14:58.799
<v Speaker 1>I he could actually last time he was full deep,

268
00:14:58.840 --> 00:15:01.440
<v Speaker 1>played full time, it was pretty good. But he is

269
00:15:01.679 --> 00:15:04.960
<v Speaker 1>a year or two older since then. And you know,

270
00:15:05.120 --> 00:15:07.399
<v Speaker 1>would it surprise you in May if he has another

271
00:15:07.440 --> 00:15:10.159
<v Speaker 1>injury and you don't see him again until August.

272
00:15:10.799 --> 00:15:13.080
<v Speaker 2>No, that wouldn't shock me. But it wouldn't shock me

273
00:15:13.159 --> 00:15:16.960
<v Speaker 2>if he was posting a mid mid to high three

274
00:15:17.080 --> 00:15:20.039
<v Speaker 2>eer with better than the strikeo ger inning, which I

275
00:15:20.039 --> 00:15:23.000
<v Speaker 2>think from the Jay's perspective is what they're looking at,

276
00:15:23.080 --> 00:15:24.960
<v Speaker 2>so they can move him at the deadline and try

277
00:15:25.000 --> 00:15:26.279
<v Speaker 2>and get something back for him.

278
00:15:26.519 --> 00:15:27.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

279
00:15:27.200 --> 00:15:29.600
<v Speaker 2>I think that's a good point. I think that's what

280
00:15:29.679 --> 00:15:33.559
<v Speaker 2>the bed is there. But yeah, you know, as a number,

281
00:15:33.639 --> 00:15:38.039
<v Speaker 2>as a number seven starter, yeah, I'm not disinterested.

282
00:15:38.759 --> 00:15:43.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. The Reds signed Austin Hayes to play left field.

283
00:15:43.759 --> 00:15:47.000
<v Speaker 1>It was a small sign. Will Benson was fourteen home

284
00:15:47.080 --> 00:15:50.399
<v Speaker 1>runs a sixteen stolen bases last season. Looks like he's

285
00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:52.519
<v Speaker 1>probably going to start this season in the minors. He's

286
00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:54.919
<v Speaker 1>not a great player, but I think it was one

287
00:15:55.000 --> 00:15:58.200
<v Speaker 1>hundred and twenty two games, you know, fourteen to sixteen

288
00:15:58.360 --> 00:16:00.240
<v Speaker 1>the full season might have been a twenty two one

289
00:16:00.360 --> 00:16:05.240
<v Speaker 1>guy recy Hines, you know, obviously had that magical three

290
00:16:05.320 --> 00:16:08.440
<v Speaker 1>or four weeks nowhere to be seen. What do you

291
00:16:08.480 --> 00:16:11.360
<v Speaker 1>think about this signing? You have any interesting interest in

292
00:16:11.440 --> 00:16:13.480
<v Speaker 1>Austin Hayser, You feel like he's done.

293
00:16:14.559 --> 00:16:19.440
<v Speaker 2>A very very low interest, you know, maybe for a

294
00:16:19.559 --> 00:16:22.919
<v Speaker 2>reserve spot in a re draft league, something along those lines.

295
00:16:23.320 --> 00:16:27.879
<v Speaker 2>What it did do, though, is, you know, all of

296
00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:34.159
<v Speaker 2>a sudden, Cees is not in the everyday lineup. No,

297
00:16:34.480 --> 00:16:38.200
<v Speaker 2>noelvi Marte isn't in the everyday lineup. They got Gavin

298
00:16:38.720 --> 00:16:43.960
<v Speaker 2>Lux at DH like Cincinnati is putting the disc in

299
00:16:44.039 --> 00:16:47.759
<v Speaker 2>dysfunctional with how they're attempting to do things here, and

300
00:16:47.960 --> 00:16:52.480
<v Speaker 2>I personally I don't like it. I really don't. I

301
00:16:52.519 --> 00:16:55.519
<v Speaker 2>think they've got some young talent. Why are they Why

302
00:16:55.519 --> 00:16:57.919
<v Speaker 2>are they making moves for a for a Gavin Lux

303
00:16:58.360 --> 00:17:00.279
<v Speaker 2>when they've got Matt McLean in l A de la

304
00:17:00.320 --> 00:17:03.919
<v Speaker 2>Cruz at the middle infield slots? You know, well, why

305
00:17:03.960 --> 00:17:06.880
<v Speaker 2>are they not looking at trying to get Cees and

306
00:17:06.920 --> 00:17:10.160
<v Speaker 2>Marte into that lineup every day, and every time they

307
00:17:10.200 --> 00:17:15.000
<v Speaker 2>bring somebody somebody in like this, it just it just

308
00:17:15.160 --> 00:17:18.839
<v Speaker 2>sort of adds to the mess that they're already.

309
00:17:19.000 --> 00:17:21.079
<v Speaker 1>I thought you're gonna say, makes you remind you of

310
00:17:21.119 --> 00:17:22.240
<v Speaker 1>the Colorado Rockies.

311
00:17:23.160 --> 00:17:27.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well yeah, they got these kids playing. Yeah, let's

312
00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:30.759
<v Speaker 2>do what Strand can do. Let's let's see what Marte

313
00:17:30.759 --> 00:17:31.039
<v Speaker 2>can do.

314
00:17:31.200 --> 00:17:34.119
<v Speaker 1>But I kind of got the Gavin Lux signing because

315
00:17:34.119 --> 00:17:36.680
<v Speaker 1>they didn't give up much at all, which, of course

316
00:17:36.720 --> 00:17:38.759
<v Speaker 1>the Dodgers will turn that guy into the Hall of

317
00:17:38.799 --> 00:17:42.519
<v Speaker 1>Fame pitcher. But uh, I mean, I mean, Gavin Lux

318
00:17:42.559 --> 00:17:45.759
<v Speaker 1>has got a pretty good pedigree. He's probably a platoon guy,

319
00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:50.480
<v Speaker 1>long term police. He's young with some upside. I Alstin Hayes,

320
00:17:50.680 --> 00:17:54.319
<v Speaker 1>I don't get. I mean, why not throw Gavin Lux

321
00:17:54.359 --> 00:17:57.519
<v Speaker 1>in the outfield and then put to Cees at d

322
00:17:57.839 --> 00:18:01.200
<v Speaker 1>H And aren't you got to be a better team

323
00:18:01.319 --> 00:18:04.039
<v Speaker 1>as opposed to Austin? Why you have Austin Hayes out there?

324
00:18:04.039 --> 00:18:04.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't get that.

325
00:18:05.279 --> 00:18:09.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, they're outfield right now, is Hayes? Jake Freeley remember him?

326
00:18:09.559 --> 00:18:10.799
<v Speaker 2>And TJ. Friedel?

327
00:18:11.599 --> 00:18:14.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, that's.

328
00:18:14.319 --> 00:18:18.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that doesn't instill fear in the hearts of man.

329
00:18:18.680 --> 00:18:22.480
<v Speaker 2>I don't think yep, and Candelaria is sitting at third base, well,

330
00:18:22.519 --> 00:18:25.880
<v Speaker 2>and get Lux to third base platoon.

331
00:18:25.960 --> 00:18:29.160
<v Speaker 1>Candelario, I don't know if Lux can play third base.

332
00:18:29.240 --> 00:18:32.680
<v Speaker 1>I would put Lux in left field and just say

333
00:18:32.799 --> 00:18:37.440
<v Speaker 1>you're you're our strong side platoon guy in left field,

334
00:18:37.519 --> 00:18:39.480
<v Speaker 1>and you know, we'll put some other body out there,

335
00:18:40.000 --> 00:18:42.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, who's a left right hand at bat that's

336
00:18:42.240 --> 00:18:45.319
<v Speaker 1>going to be our weak side platoon. And and then

337
00:18:45.359 --> 00:18:48.720
<v Speaker 1>put Noville Marte at third base and move Candelarian. Let's

338
00:18:48.759 --> 00:18:51.240
<v Speaker 1>give these guys a shot. I mean, they're pretty high

339
00:18:51.319 --> 00:18:54.440
<v Speaker 1>end young players, and maybe they're just pissed at Noville

340
00:18:54.480 --> 00:18:58.559
<v Speaker 1>Marte because of the suspension. I don't know, but I

341
00:18:58.559 --> 00:19:01.920
<v Speaker 1>mean Cees looked OK. I don't know if he's gonna

342
00:19:01.960 --> 00:19:03.559
<v Speaker 1>be great, but at least give him a shot.

343
00:19:04.200 --> 00:19:10.319
<v Speaker 2>Well yeah, exactly. Yeah. When you start looking, it's just

344
00:19:10.359 --> 00:19:12.640
<v Speaker 2>a mess and you gotta somehow find a way to

345
00:19:12.720 --> 00:19:16.319
<v Speaker 2>sort it out. Can can Matt McLean play third base?

346
00:19:17.799 --> 00:19:21.559
<v Speaker 1>I think so Ellie can? I think Ellie's your shortstop, right,

347
00:19:21.559 --> 00:19:23.839
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's that's your marquee guy that you went

348
00:19:23.880 --> 00:19:25.680
<v Speaker 1>in the middle of the diamond Yeah, he could definitely

349
00:19:25.680 --> 00:19:28.920
<v Speaker 1>play third base, but I think he's gonna play short right,

350
00:19:30.640 --> 00:19:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Tim's back?

351
00:19:31.440 --> 00:19:35.160
<v Speaker 2>You back, Tim, Yeah, Yeah, I'm back. Yeah.

352
00:19:35.559 --> 00:19:37.599
<v Speaker 1>I think Ellie's They're not gonna move him off short

353
00:19:37.720 --> 00:19:40.240
<v Speaker 1>short I would. I'd be surprised at that if they

354
00:19:40.319 --> 00:19:44.160
<v Speaker 1>move him off shortstop. But they've got to me it's

355
00:19:44.359 --> 00:19:48.279
<v Speaker 1>it's Ellie. I think it's Matt McLean for sure, and

356
00:19:48.359 --> 00:19:51.599
<v Speaker 1>I guess Heimer Candelary because he's signed. And then I don't.

357
00:19:51.720 --> 00:19:54.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't know who's I think it could

358
00:19:54.000 --> 00:19:54.640
<v Speaker 1>be anybody.

359
00:19:56.079 --> 00:20:00.960
<v Speaker 2>Well, exactly, Like trying to figure out this lineup is

360
00:20:02.640 --> 00:20:04.119
<v Speaker 2>almost impossible right now.

361
00:20:04.279 --> 00:20:06.960
<v Speaker 1>Yes, I would. I'd be staying away from anybody but

362
00:20:08.160 --> 00:20:12.240
<v Speaker 1>Leda cruz uh and Matt McClain. I just wouldn't Renova Martee,

363
00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:14.359
<v Speaker 1>I like the player. I would not be touching them

364
00:20:14.359 --> 00:20:15.880
<v Speaker 1>at all in drafts. Forget about it.

365
00:20:16.400 --> 00:20:21.200
<v Speaker 2>Yep, I agree. There's just too much uncertainty sitting there.

366
00:20:21.480 --> 00:20:23.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, totally. We've got to get in the middle of

367
00:20:23.640 --> 00:20:25.799
<v Speaker 1>spring training to see what happens, who gets hurt and

368
00:20:25.839 --> 00:20:27.880
<v Speaker 1>so forth and so on. Timmy gets take a break

369
00:20:27.920 --> 00:20:31.400
<v Speaker 1>and we get back. Let's talk about third base.

370
00:20:32.319 --> 00:20:35.640
<v Speaker 2>Sound good?

371
00:20:42.079 --> 00:20:45.559
<v Speaker 1>Getting so much great feedback on our as we go

372
00:20:45.640 --> 00:20:48.799
<v Speaker 1>through your rankings. People really really liking it. I encourage

373
00:20:48.799 --> 00:20:51.640
<v Speaker 1>everybody to join us out at the Patreon site. You

374
00:20:51.720 --> 00:20:55.160
<v Speaker 1>get a lot more detail on Tim's rankings. You get

375
00:20:55.200 --> 00:20:57.240
<v Speaker 1>them all, you get a chance to look at them online.

376
00:20:57.279 --> 00:20:59.200
<v Speaker 1>You get a chance to look at the spreadsheet sheet

377
00:20:59.559 --> 00:21:01.599
<v Speaker 1>that I've it to go along with Tim, to take

378
00:21:01.599 --> 00:21:04.519
<v Speaker 1>a look at last year's ranking versus this year's ranking,

379
00:21:05.039 --> 00:21:07.319
<v Speaker 1>how they relate to where they're going and drafts, and

380
00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:11.160
<v Speaker 1>it really highlights timmy those guys that you like a

381
00:21:11.160 --> 00:21:13.160
<v Speaker 1>lot more. I mean, you could listen to the narrative

382
00:21:13.200 --> 00:21:15.200
<v Speaker 1>on the podcast, but when you can actually look at

383
00:21:15.200 --> 00:21:18.079
<v Speaker 1>it and see a big yellow mark next to a

384
00:21:18.119 --> 00:21:21.279
<v Speaker 1>guy that Tim likes more than somebody else or doesn't like,

385
00:21:21.319 --> 00:21:23.599
<v Speaker 1>I think that it really highlights it.

386
00:21:24.519 --> 00:21:31.160
<v Speaker 2>Well. Yeah, and I'm definitely not shy about certain players,

387
00:21:31.359 --> 00:21:33.640
<v Speaker 2>and hopefully a lot of them will end up on

388
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:36.440
<v Speaker 2>my teams this year. But I think I've got a

389
00:21:36.519 --> 00:21:39.519
<v Speaker 2>solid rationale for the ones I like and dislike. And

390
00:21:41.200 --> 00:21:44.599
<v Speaker 2>the more detail that you can have, the better off

391
00:21:44.640 --> 00:21:48.559
<v Speaker 2>you are. And yeah, I really like the setup that

392
00:21:48.599 --> 00:21:50.799
<v Speaker 2>you put together for these rankings, right, It's good.

393
00:21:50.799 --> 00:21:53.640
<v Speaker 1>That's great and it works really well with your narratives

394
00:21:53.680 --> 00:21:56.960
<v Speaker 1>and the process that you put together. So with that,

395
00:21:57.279 --> 00:22:01.119
<v Speaker 1>patting ourselves on the back, Timmy's tell me how you're

396
00:22:01.200 --> 00:22:03.000
<v Speaker 1>handling third base this season?

397
00:22:04.480 --> 00:22:11.799
<v Speaker 2>How? I am?

398
00:22:11.960 --> 00:22:14.319
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so we lost him for seconds. It's tim how

399
00:22:14.359 --> 00:22:15.839
<v Speaker 1>are you handling third base? This season?

400
00:22:16.960 --> 00:22:20.039
<v Speaker 2>Ah? I think if I've got a pick in the

401
00:22:20.079 --> 00:22:22.680
<v Speaker 2>top five, I'm not going to pass on Jose Ramires.

402
00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:26.880
<v Speaker 2>But for the most part, I'm I'm gonna work. I'm

403
00:22:26.920 --> 00:22:30.640
<v Speaker 2>going to work on the the mid areas. I I like,

404
00:22:31.039 --> 00:22:35.000
<v Speaker 2>I like Alex bowm oh, I like where he's going

405
00:22:35.039 --> 00:22:39.160
<v Speaker 2>in drafts. I like Eugenio Suarez getting down a little

406
00:22:39.200 --> 00:22:41.319
<v Speaker 2>bit further. If I want to gamble the guy, I'm

407
00:22:41.319 --> 00:22:45.640
<v Speaker 2>probably gonna gamble on his Matt Shaw. Okay, Connor Norby,

408
00:22:45.759 --> 00:22:49.759
<v Speaker 2>I like it his current physician, and uh, the more

409
00:22:49.799 --> 00:22:52.359
<v Speaker 2>I looked at him, and the more I dug I'm

410
00:22:52.400 --> 00:22:58.079
<v Speaker 2>becoming a Jose Chenior fan for a middle Yes, yes,

411
00:22:59.119 --> 00:23:02.559
<v Speaker 2>but well, wh when I look at the top the

412
00:23:02.599 --> 00:23:05.920
<v Speaker 2>top end, I think I'm going to be spending more time,

413
00:23:06.039 --> 00:23:11.119
<v Speaker 2>hopefully focusing on filling out field, and I'm going to

414
00:23:11.160 --> 00:23:14.119
<v Speaker 2>make that a little bit more of my priority this year.

415
00:23:14.599 --> 00:23:18.079
<v Speaker 2>As compared to third base, there's some there's some solid

416
00:23:18.079 --> 00:23:20.839
<v Speaker 2>options when you get down into the middle levels that

417
00:23:21.680 --> 00:23:25.359
<v Speaker 2>should provide you with some great numbers. And the surprising

418
00:23:25.400 --> 00:23:28.839
<v Speaker 2>thing is a lot of the players from say fourteen

419
00:23:28.960 --> 00:23:33.319
<v Speaker 2>fifteen down, a lot of players have third base eligibility

420
00:23:33.400 --> 00:23:37.519
<v Speaker 2>this year that normally wouldn't providing you an opportunity to

421
00:23:37.559 --> 00:23:40.000
<v Speaker 2>grab some stolen bases a little bit later on if

422
00:23:40.000 --> 00:23:42.200
<v Speaker 2>you want to take a different approach to third base.

423
00:23:42.960 --> 00:23:46.039
<v Speaker 2>So I'm looking at the I'm looking at the mid

424
00:23:46.079 --> 00:23:50.039
<v Speaker 2>tiers rich and there's nothing. There's nothing wrong with the

425
00:23:50.079 --> 00:23:54.039
<v Speaker 2>top end. It's just I think with the strategy I'm

426
00:23:54.039 --> 00:23:58.039
<v Speaker 2>attempting to employ this year, it's not a big priority

427
00:23:58.039 --> 00:23:59.440
<v Speaker 2>to get a third basement early.

428
00:24:00.319 --> 00:24:04.559
<v Speaker 1>Interesting. So this you brought up so many nuggets in there,

429
00:24:04.839 --> 00:24:07.039
<v Speaker 1>and how I would love to talk about Tania and

430
00:24:07.079 --> 00:24:09.839
<v Speaker 1>Shawl at the moment, but we're going to wait till

431
00:24:09.880 --> 00:24:12.640
<v Speaker 1>we get to them. But I will just comment both

432
00:24:12.680 --> 00:24:16.119
<v Speaker 1>of them. There's been talked by both the Nationals and

433
00:24:16.160 --> 00:24:20.200
<v Speaker 1>the Cubs a lot about hiring somebody else to play

434
00:24:20.240 --> 00:24:23.200
<v Speaker 1>third base, and we're sitting here on February first, and

435
00:24:23.240 --> 00:24:26.720
<v Speaker 1>it hasn't happened yet. So I feel like it's just attrition.

436
00:24:26.799 --> 00:24:28.720
<v Speaker 1>Are we going to make it to the start of

437
00:24:28.759 --> 00:24:31.240
<v Speaker 1>the season and both of those guys are still going

438
00:24:31.319 --> 00:24:34.240
<v Speaker 1>to have jobs. But at the moment, anything can happen.

439
00:24:34.279 --> 00:24:35.720
<v Speaker 1>At the moment they've got a job.

440
00:24:36.240 --> 00:24:40.400
<v Speaker 2>Yes exactly, and they both have what I believe to

441
00:24:40.480 --> 00:24:43.400
<v Speaker 2>be very very good potential. But then again, you get

442
00:24:43.440 --> 00:24:46.720
<v Speaker 2>into a situation. I was sort of looking at Ben

443
00:24:46.759 --> 00:24:51.119
<v Speaker 2>Williamson maybe as being an option in Seattle. Okay, well

444
00:24:51.160 --> 00:24:53.559
<v Speaker 2>I came crashing down with the Horgate bolanco sign and

445
00:24:53.640 --> 00:24:56.720
<v Speaker 2>he's going to play third base. Yeah, okay, so we're

446
00:24:56.759 --> 00:24:59.799
<v Speaker 2>still not out of the woods yet, but I would

447
00:25:00.039 --> 00:25:02.480
<v Speaker 2>I can see both those teams give those young players

448
00:25:02.480 --> 00:25:07.079
<v Speaker 2>an opportunity, and I think they're going to.

449
00:25:08.200 --> 00:25:11.000
<v Speaker 1>Can you imagine the conversations that these front offices must

450
00:25:11.079 --> 00:25:13.559
<v Speaker 1>be having. You know, hey, we really want to We

451
00:25:13.880 --> 00:25:16.680
<v Speaker 1>really like Matt Shaw, he's the future there. We think

452
00:25:16.680 --> 00:25:19.839
<v Speaker 1>that he could be strong. But you know, Alex Bregman,

453
00:25:19.920 --> 00:25:22.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean, the prices come down and it's Alex Bregman

454
00:25:22.799 --> 00:25:24.519
<v Speaker 1>and we feel like them. We're the Cubs, we have

455
00:25:24.599 --> 00:25:27.880
<v Speaker 1>the money. You can't say that's I can understand the

456
00:25:28.000 --> 00:25:31.319
<v Speaker 1>difficulty in making those calls like you want to give

457
00:25:31.319 --> 00:25:34.799
<v Speaker 1>the young guy a shot, but yet you know you

458
00:25:34.880 --> 00:25:38.119
<v Speaker 1>might get a guy at a discount, and like Alex

459
00:25:38.160 --> 00:25:40.359
<v Speaker 1>Bregman could be very very interesting there.

460
00:25:40.880 --> 00:25:45.279
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I discount would bring him into the one hundred

461
00:25:45.319 --> 00:25:48.799
<v Speaker 2>and fifty to two hundred million range. That's still a

462
00:25:48.799 --> 00:25:49.759
<v Speaker 2>lot of money.

463
00:25:49.599 --> 00:25:51.039
<v Speaker 1>Still a lot of money. But I mean if they

464
00:25:51.079 --> 00:25:54.319
<v Speaker 1>trade for Nolan Arenado or god forbid, like Anthony were done,

465
00:25:54.359 --> 00:25:55.920
<v Speaker 1>then I would be like, what are you doing?

466
00:25:56.400 --> 00:25:58.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah exactly, yeah, yeah.

467
00:25:58.279 --> 00:26:00.799
<v Speaker 1>So but let's go, let's go back the top ten's

468
00:26:00.799 --> 00:26:04.720
<v Speaker 1>got Jose Ramirez And look, I agree, he was fantastic.

469
00:26:04.720 --> 00:26:07.279
<v Speaker 1>It was on my targets this year. He was one

470
00:26:07.319 --> 00:26:09.759
<v Speaker 1>of my targets last season, not one of my targets

471
00:26:09.759 --> 00:26:13.599
<v Speaker 1>this season for not good for and the only reason

472
00:26:13.960 --> 00:26:18.559
<v Speaker 1>is he's old. I mean it's like he's still good.

473
00:26:18.640 --> 00:26:21.480
<v Speaker 1>The production looks great, the data looks good on him.

474
00:26:21.519 --> 00:26:24.440
<v Speaker 1>But at some point, tim he's not going to be good.

475
00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:26.000
<v Speaker 1>And I don't know when that's going to be.

476
00:26:27.119 --> 00:26:29.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I don't think any of us know when it's

477
00:26:29.000 --> 00:26:30.759
<v Speaker 2>going to be. But I feel fairly.

478
00:26:30.759 --> 00:26:32.519
<v Speaker 1>You're supposed to know. You're the analyst.

479
00:26:33.400 --> 00:26:36.839
<v Speaker 2>Yes, that's why you get paid the Big Bucks Maid

480
00:26:36.880 --> 00:26:41.960
<v Speaker 2>the Big Bucks. Yeah, I don't think. I don't think

481
00:26:42.000 --> 00:26:43.640
<v Speaker 2>this year is going to be the year. I have

482
00:26:43.759 --> 00:26:45.039
<v Speaker 2>no concerns with Jose.

483
00:26:44.880 --> 00:26:45.759
<v Speaker 1>Aram Maris at all.

484
00:26:46.279 --> 00:26:49.799
<v Speaker 2>He's got six twenty twenty seasons. He's coming off well.

485
00:26:49.920 --> 00:26:53.359
<v Speaker 2>It thirty nine home run, forty one stolen bases last

486
00:26:53.440 --> 00:26:56.519
<v Speaker 2>year amazing. He's a top five pick, and I think

487
00:26:56.559 --> 00:26:58.799
<v Speaker 2>he's I think he's earned it. I have no concerns

488
00:26:58.839 --> 00:27:00.920
<v Speaker 2>heading into twenty twenty five. I think this time next

489
00:27:01.000 --> 00:27:05.480
<v Speaker 2>year we'll be talking about seven consecutive twenty twenty seasons.

490
00:27:06.119 --> 00:27:08.680
<v Speaker 1>I looked at Jose Ramirez last year at sixteen point

491
00:27:08.720 --> 00:27:11.039
<v Speaker 1>four to three. That was his ADPM, Like, if I'm in,

492
00:27:11.279 --> 00:27:14.359
<v Speaker 1>if I'm drafting eleventh twelfth, I'm grabbing him. I feel

493
00:27:14.359 --> 00:27:20.160
<v Speaker 1>exactly the same way about Francisco Lindor. It's almost, Yeah,

494
00:27:20.200 --> 00:27:24.359
<v Speaker 1>it's almost the exact same scenario. Lindor's ADP is about sixteen.

495
00:27:24.960 --> 00:27:28.200
<v Speaker 1>I just think he's the right guy in eleven twelve,

496
00:27:28.319 --> 00:27:30.720
<v Speaker 1>just to jump a few slots ahead of time and

497
00:27:30.759 --> 00:27:34.920
<v Speaker 1>bring him in because there's really good. It's a similar

498
00:27:35.000 --> 00:27:35.599
<v Speaker 1>kind of player.

499
00:27:36.279 --> 00:27:39.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you're looking at You're looking at a guy who's

500
00:27:39.839 --> 00:27:42.960
<v Speaker 2>basically a pencil in thirty thirty barring injury in the

501
00:27:43.000 --> 00:27:46.400
<v Speaker 2>way you go. Yeah, yeah, I agree.

502
00:27:46.079 --> 00:27:49.160
<v Speaker 1>With you, And you could also argue that the Guardians

503
00:27:49.440 --> 00:27:52.839
<v Speaker 1>going back to Jose Ramirez is Yeah, let's say Kyle

504
00:27:52.920 --> 00:27:55.359
<v Speaker 1>Manzardo finally gets a chance to play. He could be

505
00:27:55.400 --> 00:28:00.480
<v Speaker 1>pretty good. The launtra could finally could finally see some

506
00:28:00.599 --> 00:28:03.720
<v Speaker 1>time if he stays healthy. The louder could finally see

507
00:28:03.759 --> 00:28:06.279
<v Speaker 1>some time in the outfield. That could be a much

508
00:28:06.319 --> 00:28:09.720
<v Speaker 1>better offense, which is only going to help Jose Ramirez.

509
00:28:10.559 --> 00:28:16.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he's been playing a long time much Yeah, by himself. Yeah,

510
00:28:16.799 --> 00:28:17.880
<v Speaker 2>I was just I was trying to think of a

511
00:28:17.960 --> 00:28:20.640
<v Speaker 2>nice way to say, with as much support as some

512
00:28:20.720 --> 00:28:23.519
<v Speaker 2>other elite level players.

513
00:28:23.000 --> 00:28:24.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, for as good as Stephen Kuan is, and I

514
00:28:24.920 --> 00:28:27.279
<v Speaker 1>think we both like Kwan for who he is. He's

515
00:28:27.440 --> 00:28:31.039
<v Speaker 1>not gonna do damage, He's gonna get on base. But

516
00:28:31.640 --> 00:28:34.400
<v Speaker 1>they've been just relying on Jose Ramirez and I guess

517
00:28:34.400 --> 00:28:36.480
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of Josh Nayler, which they don't have anymore.

518
00:28:36.559 --> 00:28:39.759
<v Speaker 1>Tim that's right to knock these guys in.

519
00:28:41.440 --> 00:28:47.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no, it h definitely I like Ramirez. I probably

520
00:28:49.119 --> 00:28:53.039
<v Speaker 2>I probably won't have him rostered in many leagues this year,

521
00:28:53.119 --> 00:28:56.079
<v Speaker 2>simply because you got to be in the right spot. Yeah,

522
00:28:56.119 --> 00:28:59.960
<v Speaker 2>and based on the early returns I've done too draft

523
00:29:00.440 --> 00:29:05.000
<v Speaker 2>and thirteen fourteen, it looks like it looks like it

524
00:29:05.000 --> 00:29:09.240
<v Speaker 2>could be one of those back of the back of

525
00:29:09.279 --> 00:29:13.319
<v Speaker 2>the first round years early on for me. So yeah, yeah,

526
00:29:13.480 --> 00:29:14.680
<v Speaker 2>we'll see.

527
00:29:15.480 --> 00:29:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So you went chalk with with Obviously the NFC,

528
00:29:19.680 --> 00:29:22.079
<v Speaker 1>no one's putting anybody in front of Jose Ramirez, I

529
00:29:22.480 --> 00:29:26.000
<v Speaker 1>don't think so. Then you've got you've got Austin Riley, Necks,

530
00:29:26.359 --> 00:29:30.519
<v Speaker 1>Jazz Chisholm at three, Raphael Devers at four, and then

531
00:29:30.559 --> 00:29:33.680
<v Speaker 1>Manny Machata. So a little boring here in the top five.

532
00:29:34.480 --> 00:29:37.279
<v Speaker 1>You're going exactly the same as the NFC, except for

533
00:29:37.440 --> 00:29:41.920
<v Speaker 1>Riley and Chishlm. Flipped. Does do we see that bounce

534
00:29:42.039 --> 00:29:44.240
<v Speaker 1>back season from Austin Riley?

535
00:29:45.519 --> 00:29:50.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it was a fractured risk or right hand. They

536
00:29:50.519 --> 00:29:53.680
<v Speaker 2>cost him time. I don't see that. I don't see

537
00:29:53.680 --> 00:29:57.200
<v Speaker 2>that changing who who he is this year. Based on

538
00:29:57.240 --> 00:30:03.359
<v Speaker 2>those three consecutive mid thirty home run years, you know

539
00:30:03.519 --> 00:30:06.880
<v Speaker 2>he'll it cost some time he had just like everybody

540
00:30:07.279 --> 00:30:10.720
<v Speaker 2>Elson and landing him time dude injury last year. I

541
00:30:10.759 --> 00:30:14.440
<v Speaker 2>don't think it's career threatening at all. So I'm anticipating

542
00:30:14.559 --> 00:30:18.799
<v Speaker 2>Riley moving back to the Austin Riley when you were

543
00:30:18.799 --> 00:30:21.119
<v Speaker 2>in Loved. And the reason I went with him over

544
00:30:21.240 --> 00:30:24.880
<v Speaker 2>Chisholm is because I think I value the power from

545
00:30:25.000 --> 00:30:28.039
<v Speaker 2>Riley a bit more than the speed from Chisholm.

546
00:30:29.200 --> 00:30:31.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's awful, good line up the Chisholm's inn.

547
00:30:33.960 --> 00:30:38.920
<v Speaker 2>It definitely is. And the other thing with Chisholm, he's

548
00:30:38.920 --> 00:30:41.440
<v Speaker 2>penciled in at second base. It gives him second third

549
00:30:41.519 --> 00:30:47.480
<v Speaker 2>ouefield of eligibility. That counts. I still couldn't move him

550
00:30:47.480 --> 00:30:49.759
<v Speaker 2>ahead of Riley, though not at this point in time.

551
00:30:49.799 --> 00:30:52.559
<v Speaker 1>If you like a lot, if you've got you know,

552
00:30:52.599 --> 00:30:56.119
<v Speaker 1>you're picking six, fifth to six, something like that, and

553
00:30:56.720 --> 00:30:59.960
<v Speaker 1>you take whomever at fifth six and you're coming back,

554
00:31:00.480 --> 00:31:06.200
<v Speaker 1>would you jump the line for Austin Riley.

555
00:31:06.720 --> 00:31:09.920
<v Speaker 2>I'd move them up. I'd move them up five six spots. Yeah.

556
00:31:10.039 --> 00:31:12.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So you might do that. If you've got an

557
00:31:12.440 --> 00:31:15.839
<v Speaker 1>early pick in a draft, take him as your second pick.

558
00:31:18.960 --> 00:31:21.079
<v Speaker 2>I can see people wanting to do that. The only

559
00:31:21.160 --> 00:31:24.599
<v Speaker 2>question that I would raise is, depending on who you

560
00:31:24.640 --> 00:31:29.240
<v Speaker 2>took with your first pick, you don't leave Oatfield too

561
00:31:29.279 --> 00:31:33.799
<v Speaker 2>long and it would make sense to move Riley up

562
00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:36.400
<v Speaker 2>because of the skills. But at the same point in time,

563
00:31:37.000 --> 00:31:39.880
<v Speaker 2>if you have to pass up on an outfield an

564
00:31:39.960 --> 00:31:42.920
<v Speaker 2>outfielder to do it, you may want to think long

565
00:31:42.960 --> 00:31:47.400
<v Speaker 2>and hard about that. Yeah, it all depends on your

566
00:31:47.400 --> 00:31:49.759
<v Speaker 2>team build. If you got Soda in the first round, well,

567
00:31:50.240 --> 00:31:52.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, I would like to have an outfielder with

568
00:31:52.720 --> 00:31:53.680
<v Speaker 2>one of my first two.

569
00:31:53.480 --> 00:31:57.400
<v Speaker 1>Picks, Raphael Devers. I don't know if it's Devers or Divers.

570
00:31:57.720 --> 00:31:59.720
<v Speaker 1>I can't Every time I say his name, I can't

571
00:31:59.720 --> 00:32:03.400
<v Speaker 1>remember which one it is. Raphael Devers or Machado. Anything

572
00:32:03.400 --> 00:32:04.279
<v Speaker 1>to say about them?

573
00:32:04.359 --> 00:32:12.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no, not not really. Hey, yeah, what someone considered

574
00:32:12.920 --> 00:32:15.039
<v Speaker 2>to be a down year and it was still a

575
00:32:15.039 --> 00:32:18.440
<v Speaker 2>pretty good year. Yeah. If you can get the RBIs

576
00:32:18.559 --> 00:32:21.920
<v Speaker 2>back up over the hundred mark, that would definitely help.

577
00:32:22.000 --> 00:32:24.400
<v Speaker 2>It was a little last year with eighty three, but

578
00:32:24.920 --> 00:32:27.319
<v Speaker 2>he's a good player, very good player.

579
00:32:27.319 --> 00:32:29.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, Trevor Story is going to be back. You believe,

580
00:32:29.920 --> 00:32:33.880
<v Speaker 1>have to believe that Roman Anthony and Kristin Robbins, Christian Campbell,

581
00:32:33.920 --> 00:32:35.920
<v Speaker 1>not Robinson Christian Campbell are going to be up at

582
00:32:35.920 --> 00:32:38.559
<v Speaker 1>some point. That team's only going to get better and

583
00:32:38.720 --> 00:32:41.720
<v Speaker 1>RBI's as you know, are as much about a team

584
00:32:41.960 --> 00:32:45.000
<v Speaker 1>statistic as opposed an individual statistic. Get a better team

585
00:32:45.039 --> 00:32:46.440
<v Speaker 1>around them, castles will be better.

586
00:32:49.680 --> 00:32:52.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, definitely. We're going to see those kids this year.

587
00:32:52.640 --> 00:32:55.720
<v Speaker 2>It's gonna be a fascinating year in Boston. They're gonna

588
00:32:55.720 --> 00:32:58.079
<v Speaker 2>be an interesting team to watch and see how all

589
00:32:58.119 --> 00:32:59.839
<v Speaker 2>those kids fit in and develop it.

590
00:33:00.240 --> 00:33:01.680
<v Speaker 1>I think it's a team. I think it's a team

591
00:33:01.720 --> 00:33:04.119
<v Speaker 1>on the rise, I really do. I think they are

592
00:33:04.160 --> 00:33:06.440
<v Speaker 1>set up to be able to move kids at the deadline,

593
00:33:06.480 --> 00:33:10.240
<v Speaker 1>to bring up bring in pitching. I like the Red

594
00:33:10.279 --> 00:33:13.000
<v Speaker 1>Sox this season. I like him over the next five

595
00:33:13.079 --> 00:33:17.640
<v Speaker 1>years too, Yes, as do I. Six to tennis, where

596
00:33:17.640 --> 00:33:22.160
<v Speaker 1>it gets interesting. Ten loves himself some junior Campinario. Six

597
00:33:22.279 --> 00:33:26.839
<v Speaker 1>up from eight. Jordan Westberg's chalk at seven, Mark Fiento's

598
00:33:26.920 --> 00:33:30.680
<v Speaker 1>goes down to Alex Bregman goes at number nine. He

599
00:33:30.799 --> 00:33:33.240
<v Speaker 1>is going in the NFBC at twelve. I don't know

600
00:33:33.240 --> 00:33:35.400
<v Speaker 1>if has a little bit to do with the fact

601
00:33:35.440 --> 00:33:38.000
<v Speaker 1>he hasn't signed yet. And then you got Royce Lewis

602
00:33:38.720 --> 00:33:42.680
<v Speaker 1>at number ten, so very interesting. Back ten here, let's

603
00:33:42.720 --> 00:33:45.559
<v Speaker 1>start with Royce Lewis. He could be much higher if

604
00:33:45.599 --> 00:33:47.039
<v Speaker 1>you could count on him being healthy.

605
00:33:47.160 --> 00:33:50.200
<v Speaker 2>Right, well, yeah, you just take a look. You know,

606
00:33:50.240 --> 00:33:53.480
<v Speaker 2>in twenty three at fifteen homers and two urns, seventeen beats,

607
00:33:53.839 --> 00:33:56.839
<v Speaker 2>twenty four, sixteen and two ninety two, he's a thirty

608
00:33:56.880 --> 00:34:00.559
<v Speaker 2>home run hit all it's missing his health five hundred

609
00:34:00.720 --> 00:34:08.639
<v Speaker 2>beats and he could easily be as high as Mahado. Yeah,

610
00:34:08.719 --> 00:34:11.440
<v Speaker 2>I was gonna say, right after Machada, somewhere in that area.

611
00:34:11.519 --> 00:34:16.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, yeah, But if you got your spreadsheet going

612
00:34:16.599 --> 00:34:19.320
<v Speaker 1>for your for your draft, to mean, there's no way

613
00:34:19.360 --> 00:34:22.159
<v Speaker 1>that you can put in thirty home runs for Royce

614
00:34:22.239 --> 00:34:24.239
<v Speaker 1>Lewis and say he's going to be five hundred bats,

615
00:34:24.280 --> 00:34:26.599
<v Speaker 1>thirty hundred, because he's never done it.

616
00:34:27.719 --> 00:34:31.199
<v Speaker 2>No of the of the top ten h other than

617
00:34:31.280 --> 00:34:34.920
<v Speaker 2>Bregman Nut's not signing. He is, by far, I think,

618
00:34:34.960 --> 00:34:38.800
<v Speaker 2>the highest risk of anybody in the top ten in

619
00:34:38.840 --> 00:34:42.440
<v Speaker 2>the highest out yeah and highest upside. Yes, I agree.

620
00:34:42.960 --> 00:34:45.679
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to Junior Caminario. You love Junior camen Area.

621
00:34:45.719 --> 00:34:46.679
<v Speaker 1>This season it looks.

622
00:34:46.480 --> 00:34:49.719
<v Speaker 2>Like, well, yeah, he hits a bullheard, he hits it

623
00:34:49.760 --> 00:34:52.519
<v Speaker 2>a lot, he hits it all fields. He's going to

624
00:34:52.559 --> 00:34:54.800
<v Speaker 2>be a star. I'm convinced of it. Whether it's this

625
00:34:54.960 --> 00:34:59.760
<v Speaker 2>year or next or the year after that. But I

626
00:34:59.800 --> 00:35:02.320
<v Speaker 2>can't rule over the thirty one hundred season this year.

627
00:35:02.440 --> 00:35:04.440
<v Speaker 2>And I don't know. Did you see that home run

628
00:35:04.440 --> 00:35:06.920
<v Speaker 2>he hit in the was it the Dominican?

629
00:35:07.079 --> 00:35:07.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

630
00:35:07.400 --> 00:35:10.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, yeah, Yeah.

631
00:35:10.920 --> 00:35:13.000
<v Speaker 1>He's going to be in the leaders of hard hit

632
00:35:13.079 --> 00:35:15.719
<v Speaker 1>rates and things like that. That guy has tremendous bat

633
00:35:15.760 --> 00:35:16.559
<v Speaker 1>speed and strength.

634
00:35:16.639 --> 00:35:22.480
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yeah, And he also has the longest and possibly

635
00:35:23.360 --> 00:35:25.920
<v Speaker 2>most dynamic home run trot I have ever seen in

636
00:35:25.960 --> 00:35:30.679
<v Speaker 2>my life. Man, he was excited when he hit that ball. Man,

637
00:35:31.360 --> 00:35:36.119
<v Speaker 2>I just don't see. I've got him higher because I

638
00:35:36.119 --> 00:35:37.599
<v Speaker 2>think that's what it's going to take for you to

639
00:35:37.679 --> 00:35:41.159
<v Speaker 2>land him. I think the hype is going to build

640
00:35:41.320 --> 00:35:45.119
<v Speaker 2>and continue to build, and come Draft Day in March,

641
00:35:45.239 --> 00:35:53.800
<v Speaker 2>I hey, I love Jordan Westberg, but Junior Caminero, Yeah,

642
00:35:53.840 --> 00:35:55.840
<v Speaker 2>there's there's a little bit more than just love there.

643
00:35:56.039 --> 00:35:58.199
<v Speaker 2>I think his hype is going to drive him higher.

644
00:35:58.800 --> 00:36:01.719
<v Speaker 1>So Laurie and I just bought, uh finally got a

645
00:36:01.760 --> 00:36:06.239
<v Speaker 1>replacement for her SUV that was ten years old, eleven

646
00:36:06.320 --> 00:36:08.920
<v Speaker 1>years old, so we ran it into the ground. So

647
00:36:09.000 --> 00:36:11.480
<v Speaker 1>we bought her a new car before we left uh,

648
00:36:11.719 --> 00:36:17.039
<v Speaker 1>North Carolina, And you got the exact same carches newer

649
00:36:17.159 --> 00:36:19.880
<v Speaker 1>with all the new technology in it. So uh and

650
00:36:19.920 --> 00:36:22.920
<v Speaker 1>they're they're you know, that's funny because the dealership congratulates

651
00:36:22.920 --> 00:36:24.559
<v Speaker 1>you congratulations from buying a new car.

652
00:36:24.599 --> 00:36:27.719
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, why, I mean, like, I didn't win anything,

653
00:36:28.000 --> 00:36:31.079
<v Speaker 3>Like I just I bought something. I paid you money

654
00:36:31.159 --> 00:36:32.639
<v Speaker 3>for it. I paid you probably more money than I

655
00:36:32.679 --> 00:36:35.360
<v Speaker 3>should have. Why do you congrat you should congrat your

656
00:36:35.519 --> 00:36:37.639
<v Speaker 3>congratulate yourself for ripping me off.

657
00:36:39.159 --> 00:36:45.000
<v Speaker 1>I was, yeah, Graula, yeah exactly. It's kind of weird.

658
00:36:45.199 --> 00:36:47.679
<v Speaker 1>But anyway, you get those surveys that I'm sure you've

659
00:36:47.679 --> 00:36:52.880
<v Speaker 1>gotten this emailed surveys somewhat agree either neither disagree, agree,

660
00:36:52.960 --> 00:36:57.119
<v Speaker 1>some would disagree, really disagree, and so forth. So Junior

661
00:36:57.199 --> 00:37:02.360
<v Speaker 1>Caminario really agree with this, don't agree, somewhat disagree. You know,

662
00:37:02.480 --> 00:37:05.239
<v Speaker 1>one of those things. He'll play full time and not

663
00:37:05.400 --> 00:37:11.719
<v Speaker 1>be demoted to the minor leagues. Fully agree, so he's

664
00:37:11.840 --> 00:37:16.559
<v Speaker 1>up all season. Yes, okay, yeah, I hope you're right.

665
00:37:16.679 --> 00:37:20.039
<v Speaker 1>I think you're right. I think you're right.

666
00:37:20.239 --> 00:37:22.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, if they if they want, if they want to

667
00:37:22.480 --> 00:37:25.400
<v Speaker 2>fill the seats at Steinbrener Stadium, they better have them.

668
00:37:25.719 --> 00:37:31.960
<v Speaker 1>Oh that's right there, Steinbrener forgot about that. That's right. Wow. Yeah,

669
00:37:32.519 --> 00:37:36.119
<v Speaker 1>Jordan Westberg, anything to say about Joe rh Is he

670
00:37:36.199 --> 00:37:38.119
<v Speaker 1>going to build on that season had last season?

671
00:37:40.599 --> 00:37:43.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? I'm sticking sticking to my guns. I think he's

672
00:37:43.599 --> 00:37:46.360
<v Speaker 2>a twenty five of them are eighty five RBI type player,

673
00:37:46.400 --> 00:37:48.360
<v Speaker 2>and I think we're gonna we could very well see

674
00:37:48.360 --> 00:37:50.199
<v Speaker 2>it this year. I like Westbrook a walk.

675
00:37:51.320 --> 00:37:54.800
<v Speaker 1>Do should I read anything into Mark Fianto's being down

676
00:37:54.880 --> 00:37:57.519
<v Speaker 1>to slots except you just like Junior campin area more.

677
00:37:58.760 --> 00:38:00.760
<v Speaker 2>That's all you need to read into it. Yeah, I

678
00:38:00.800 --> 00:38:04.079
<v Speaker 2>think the upside, The upside is higher with Junior than

679
00:38:04.119 --> 00:38:08.920
<v Speaker 2>it is with Brianto's. And that's basically I moved Kemin

680
00:38:09.000 --> 00:38:11.159
<v Speaker 2>Arrow up to cover that.

681
00:38:12.360 --> 00:38:16.239
<v Speaker 1>If Bianto's gets first base eligibility and they don't resign

682
00:38:16.320 --> 00:38:20.039
<v Speaker 1>Pete Alonzo, that only helps his profile, right.

683
00:38:21.400 --> 00:38:24.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you're looking at You're looking at one year of

684
00:38:24.519 --> 00:38:29.559
<v Speaker 2>third base elgency for Vianjo's this year. I don't see

685
00:38:29.599 --> 00:38:31.559
<v Speaker 2>Pete Alonzo heading back to New York at all. I

686
00:38:31.599 --> 00:38:36.159
<v Speaker 2>think that is that's done like dinner. So Viantos has

687
00:38:36.199 --> 00:38:39.679
<v Speaker 2>got the first base job and we see what shakes

688
00:38:39.719 --> 00:38:40.519
<v Speaker 2>down at third.

689
00:38:41.000 --> 00:38:45.519
<v Speaker 1>True or false? Alex Redman will sign before this time,

690
00:38:45.960 --> 00:38:48.400
<v Speaker 1>in two weeks before everybody reports.

691
00:38:50.719 --> 00:38:51.039
<v Speaker 2>False.

692
00:38:52.119 --> 00:38:53.519
<v Speaker 1>Really wow.

693
00:38:55.039 --> 00:38:58.719
<v Speaker 2>I think he wants a long term, big buck deal,

694
00:38:59.679 --> 00:39:03.920
<v Speaker 2>and I don't know if they're at the stage well

695
00:39:04.079 --> 00:39:07.079
<v Speaker 2>where they'll look at a one or two year deal

696
00:39:08.639 --> 00:39:13.559
<v Speaker 2>and take it. So I'm i'm I'm I'm thinking he

697
00:39:13.679 --> 00:39:15.360
<v Speaker 2>might he might be sitting for a while.

698
00:39:16.800 --> 00:39:19.119
<v Speaker 1>So my dad grew up as a farmer, Tim, I

699
00:39:19.119 --> 00:39:20.800
<v Speaker 1>don't know if you've ever heard this expression, so a

700
00:39:20.880 --> 00:39:22.719
<v Speaker 1>group as a farmer. So I know a lot about

701
00:39:23.159 --> 00:39:26.599
<v Speaker 1>gardening and farming, unfortunately, because that's what my dad knew.

702
00:39:26.880 --> 00:39:28.840
<v Speaker 1>And I know a lot of stupid phrases that he

703
00:39:28.920 --> 00:39:30.480
<v Speaker 1>used to utter all the time. And he always said,

704
00:39:30.480 --> 00:39:34.280
<v Speaker 1>you can't bleed a turn up. So have you ever

705
00:39:34.320 --> 00:39:37.119
<v Speaker 1>heard that expression? I'm not sure the money is there.

706
00:39:38.960 --> 00:39:41.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm not either, But it's not whether we believe it,

707
00:39:41.920 --> 00:39:48.360
<v Speaker 2>it's whether Alex Bregman believes it. I think he's searching

708
00:39:48.440 --> 00:39:51.599
<v Speaker 2>for something that's not going to happen, and until they

709
00:39:51.800 --> 00:39:56.599
<v Speaker 2>determine that to be the reality, I think he'll continue

710
00:39:56.639 --> 00:39:59.119
<v Speaker 2>pursuing what he has to this point in time. So

711
00:39:59.199 --> 00:39:59.599
<v Speaker 2>if you're.

712
00:39:59.519 --> 00:40:01.480
<v Speaker 1>Concerned that he's going to sign on time, and you've

713
00:40:01.480 --> 00:40:05.800
<v Speaker 1>already said, you're really really disconcerted if a guy hasn't

714
00:40:05.800 --> 00:40:09.199
<v Speaker 1>signed before they report. Why do you like Bredman three

715
00:40:09.280 --> 00:40:10.719
<v Speaker 1>slots higher than the NFBC.

716
00:40:12.039 --> 00:40:14.840
<v Speaker 2>I think the NFBC I've taken the opposite approach. The

717
00:40:15.000 --> 00:40:17.920
<v Speaker 2>NFBC likes him even less than I do. Well, when

718
00:40:17.960 --> 00:40:21.000
<v Speaker 2>I look at who is behind him, Royce Lewis, can

719
00:40:21.039 --> 00:40:26.079
<v Speaker 2>you count on Royce Lewis? No? Okay, Alex Baum is

720
00:40:26.480 --> 00:40:28.719
<v Speaker 2>a nice player, one that I like a lot, But

721
00:40:28.840 --> 00:40:31.000
<v Speaker 2>you're looking at a fifteen to twenty home run sort

722
00:40:31.039 --> 00:40:37.239
<v Speaker 2>of guy. Okay, Sworez, there's batting average concerns. I think

723
00:40:37.280 --> 00:40:42.119
<v Speaker 2>when you look at you know, from Chapman through to

724
00:40:42.719 --> 00:40:48.559
<v Speaker 2>Bregman in that in that other than Lewis, I still

725
00:40:48.840 --> 00:40:53.400
<v Speaker 2>like Alex Bregman a bit better than I like Boems

726
00:40:53.480 --> 00:40:57.400
<v Speaker 2>forres Chapman, and I'd like Lewis Moore if you can

727
00:40:57.400 --> 00:41:01.440
<v Speaker 2>stay on the field. So I don't underst I who

728
00:41:01.480 --> 00:41:05.840
<v Speaker 2>have they moved up in the NBC ahead of Bragman.

729
00:41:06.880 --> 00:41:10.320
<v Speaker 1>Uh, let's see, Well that's a tough one. I haven't

730
00:41:10.360 --> 00:41:11.280
<v Speaker 1>sorted it that way.

731
00:41:12.079 --> 00:41:14.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, just looking just looking at some of the.

732
00:41:14.280 --> 00:41:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Soman is going, you've got him going ninth he's going twelve.

733
00:41:19.679 --> 00:41:22.559
<v Speaker 1>So in front of that may be Royce Lewis. Matt

734
00:41:22.800 --> 00:41:28.519
<v Speaker 1>Chapman is ahead, Jake Berger is ahead of where Bregman

735
00:41:28.639 --> 00:41:31.119
<v Speaker 1>is gone. I think you're a little low one, Matt Chapman.

736
00:41:32.039 --> 00:41:35.119
<v Speaker 1>Matt Chapman's boring. But as you right, I mean, it's

737
00:41:35.239 --> 00:41:37.159
<v Speaker 1>just three of the last four seasons hit twenty seven

738
00:41:37.199 --> 00:41:40.159
<v Speaker 1>home runs. I mean, yeah, it's pretty cheap powered. The

739
00:41:40.199 --> 00:41:42.559
<v Speaker 1>guy can play. I know you don't like the park

740
00:41:42.639 --> 00:41:44.079
<v Speaker 1>he's playing, and it's a pretty good player.

741
00:41:44.159 --> 00:41:47.920
<v Speaker 2>Still, yeah, he's a pretty good player. The problem, Matt

742
00:41:48.119 --> 00:41:51.800
<v Speaker 2>Chapman is you got to be prepared for the uh,

743
00:41:52.480 --> 00:41:55.320
<v Speaker 2>for the inevitable. I didn't do anything in the month

744
00:41:55.400 --> 00:42:01.039
<v Speaker 2>of May and August syndrome. Chapman streaky, Yeah, big, big,

745
00:42:01.280 --> 00:42:06.760
<v Speaker 2>big time streaky. And I'm I'm just I'm just not

746
00:42:06.920 --> 00:42:10.920
<v Speaker 2>as bullish on Chapman and Burger as I am on Bragman.

747
00:42:11.280 --> 00:42:16.639
<v Speaker 2>I think overall talent favors Bragman. But you could you

748
00:42:16.719 --> 00:42:20.480
<v Speaker 2>can rank in that area, you can rank them. They

749
00:42:20.559 --> 00:42:22.559
<v Speaker 2>all come, they all come with various wards.

750
00:42:23.559 --> 00:42:25.719
<v Speaker 1>Let's take a break. Let's take a break, Tim and

751
00:42:25.800 --> 00:42:28.079
<v Speaker 1>come back. And I agree with you on bre On Burger,

752
00:42:28.320 --> 00:42:30.159
<v Speaker 1>and Uh, we're gonna get to him in a second.

753
00:42:38.400 --> 00:42:40.800
<v Speaker 1>Tim has already told you he likes salac Baum. He's

754
00:42:40.840 --> 00:42:44.159
<v Speaker 1>got coming in at number eleven, Juhinio Suarez at twelve,

755
00:42:44.360 --> 00:42:48.599
<v Speaker 1>Matt Chapman at thirteen. Uh, fourteen is Jake Berger, my buddy,

756
00:42:48.760 --> 00:42:52.920
<v Speaker 1>and Tim's pretty good pal Michael Garcia. Number sixteen is

757
00:42:53.039 --> 00:42:57.280
<v Speaker 1>Lewis Rahiefo. Number seventeen is Max Munsey, Number eighteen is

758
00:42:57.400 --> 00:43:02.360
<v Speaker 1>Isak Claridas. Number nineteen is Josh and number twenty Nolan Aaron.

759
00:43:02.400 --> 00:43:06.519
<v Speaker 1>I remember when he was really good, Tim, No, it's.

760
00:43:06.400 --> 00:43:09.119
<v Speaker 2>One of the advantages of being a little okay, you

761
00:43:09.239 --> 00:43:10.280
<v Speaker 2>forget things quick.

762
00:43:11.079 --> 00:43:13.880
<v Speaker 1>Look it's good at Jack, it's good did Jake Berger?

763
00:43:14.199 --> 00:43:17.559
<v Speaker 1>Look he's one dimensional, Timmy. He hits a lot of

764
00:43:17.639 --> 00:43:18.159
<v Speaker 1>home runs.

765
00:43:18.960 --> 00:43:22.119
<v Speaker 2>Right. The RBI totals I've mentioned in my narrative should

766
00:43:22.119 --> 00:43:24.920
<v Speaker 2>come up this year now that he's got an offensive

767
00:43:25.000 --> 00:43:29.559
<v Speaker 2>around him. But yeah, he's got one season. It's a

768
00:43:29.599 --> 00:43:33.000
<v Speaker 2>Bowl along way. That isn't enough for me to move him,

769
00:43:34.079 --> 00:43:36.719
<v Speaker 2>to move him up to the list. Yeah, I know

770
00:43:36.840 --> 00:43:41.079
<v Speaker 2>the NFBC folk love it, and hey, good for them,

771
00:43:41.239 --> 00:43:47.199
<v Speaker 2>but I I am. I am much happier with Alex

772
00:43:47.280 --> 00:43:51.719
<v Speaker 2>Bohm and Suarez than I am with that one dimensional

773
00:43:51.840 --> 00:43:52.920
<v Speaker 2>power I see from Burger.

774
00:43:53.719 --> 00:43:55.920
<v Speaker 1>Make your case for Alex Bohm being as high as he.

775
00:43:56.039 --> 00:44:01.320
<v Speaker 2>Is ninety seven RBI's the past two years of two

776
00:44:01.440 --> 00:44:05.679
<v Speaker 2>eighty two seventy four and another to eighty batting average

777
00:44:05.679 --> 00:44:08.519
<v Speaker 2>over the past three years. He's not going to give

778
00:44:08.559 --> 00:44:11.559
<v Speaker 2>you the big raw power, but he's in a good lineup.

779
00:44:11.800 --> 00:44:14.960
<v Speaker 2>And I see another ninety to one hundred arbis with

780
00:44:15.000 --> 00:44:17.239
<v Speaker 2>a good batting average there. I'll take the fifteen home

781
00:44:17.320 --> 00:44:20.559
<v Speaker 2>runs to get those other two qualities.

782
00:44:21.880 --> 00:44:24.599
<v Speaker 1>Rich Wilson's calling in from We have a caller, Tim

783
00:44:24.679 --> 00:44:29.239
<v Speaker 1>rich Wilson from New Jersey. Oh okay, Hi, Tim, I

784
00:44:29.400 --> 00:44:31.440
<v Speaker 1>listened to you all the time. You're much smarter than

785
00:44:31.519 --> 00:44:35.440
<v Speaker 1>that other guy that you're with. So over under ten

786
00:44:35.559 --> 00:44:42.960
<v Speaker 1>home runs from Mike cal Garcia this season over, Thank you,

787
00:44:43.679 --> 00:44:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, I love you. Mister mccleough, go Canada Mail.

788
00:44:47.800 --> 00:44:48.199
<v Speaker 2>Here we go.

789
00:44:48.920 --> 00:44:49.199
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

790
00:44:49.960 --> 00:44:51.920
<v Speaker 2>I think ten to twelve somewhere in that range.

791
00:44:52.239 --> 00:44:55.440
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Yeah, if that comes with twenty five stolen bases,

792
00:44:55.480 --> 00:44:55.960
<v Speaker 1>I'll take that.

793
00:44:56.519 --> 00:44:59.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. It could come with thirty five yeah yeah.

794
00:44:59.800 --> 00:45:02.119
<v Speaker 1>And and that's where it's starting and second base eligibility.

795
00:45:02.760 --> 00:45:06.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know, we got Garcia with second base eligibility.

796
00:45:06.480 --> 00:45:09.519
<v Speaker 2>We've got Rinifo with second base eligible. They can both run,

797
00:45:10.000 --> 00:45:12.000
<v Speaker 2>they can steal you some bases. And you get further

798
00:45:12.119 --> 00:45:15.400
<v Speaker 2>down the list and you get Willie Castro and Jose

799
00:45:15.559 --> 00:45:19.400
<v Speaker 2>Cavallero and Tapa. There's some stolen bases at third base.

800
00:45:20.920 --> 00:45:26.239
<v Speaker 2>And when you're looking at your team build, depending on

801
00:45:26.360 --> 00:45:29.639
<v Speaker 2>how you've got things constructed, you could go in a

802
00:45:29.840 --> 00:45:32.559
<v Speaker 2>number of different ways. At third base. You could say, Okay,

803
00:45:32.599 --> 00:45:35.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna I'm gonna move I'm gonna move Willy Castro

804
00:45:36.039 --> 00:45:38.440
<v Speaker 2>up around just so I can have those late stolen

805
00:45:38.480 --> 00:45:41.960
<v Speaker 2>bases at third base. And depending on how you've built

806
00:45:42.000 --> 00:45:44.320
<v Speaker 2>your team, that could work perfectly fine. You've got some

807
00:45:44.480 --> 00:45:47.559
<v Speaker 2>options at third base this year. When it comes into

808
00:45:47.800 --> 00:45:51.199
<v Speaker 2>looking at the whole of your team construction, I find

809
00:45:51.239 --> 00:45:51.920
<v Speaker 2>that fascinating.

810
00:45:52.639 --> 00:45:55.679
<v Speaker 1>The thing that continues to bother me about mckel garcia.

811
00:45:55.760 --> 00:45:58.800
<v Speaker 1>I think the data points the more power that dude

812
00:45:58.840 --> 00:46:02.000
<v Speaker 1>has got to stop like swinging at everything. I mean,

813
00:46:02.079 --> 00:46:06.239
<v Speaker 1>the walk rate is just awful. And what's gonna happen

814
00:46:06.320 --> 00:46:08.400
<v Speaker 1>to him? Two things, One is he's gonna be pushed

815
00:46:08.440 --> 00:46:11.039
<v Speaker 1>down the lineup, which I think has already certain to

816
00:46:11.079 --> 00:46:14.239
<v Speaker 1>happen or too. He'll be dfa'd when he starts to

817
00:46:14.280 --> 00:46:17.960
<v Speaker 1>get expensive, and then then from a long term Dynasty

818
00:46:18.679 --> 00:46:20.920
<v Speaker 1>League kind of perspective, he becomes a dice he owned.

819
00:46:21.039 --> 00:46:24.480
<v Speaker 1>So it's all about him his chase rate and getting

820
00:46:25.039 --> 00:46:27.760
<v Speaker 1>just starting to walk a little bit more, be a

821
00:46:27.800 --> 00:46:29.320
<v Speaker 1>little bit more selective at the plate.

822
00:46:31.400 --> 00:46:36.039
<v Speaker 2>Totally agree. He's playing in Kansas City, right, Yeah? Are they?

823
00:46:36.280 --> 00:46:41.239
<v Speaker 2>Are they gonna a Bobby Wit type contract with with

824
00:46:41.519 --> 00:46:45.239
<v Speaker 2>with the with the background that we can see when

825
00:46:45.280 --> 00:46:48.760
<v Speaker 2>we go to stats. No, it's not gonna happen, is it. Yeah.

826
00:46:48.760 --> 00:46:51.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't think anybody's getting a Bobby Wit type contract,

827
00:46:51.039 --> 00:46:53.960
<v Speaker 1>but he might get a long term deal if he

828
00:46:54.079 --> 00:46:55.760
<v Speaker 1>shows a little bit more play patients.

829
00:46:56.360 --> 00:47:00.679
<v Speaker 2>So and he's young, so twenty four, yeah, that can change.

830
00:47:01.159 --> 00:47:03.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, But the question is he coachable? Is you

831
00:47:03.880 --> 00:47:06.280
<v Speaker 1>know all that kind of stuff, which is a little

832
00:47:06.320 --> 00:47:08.800
<v Speaker 1>bit disconcerned because you don't want to make the guy passive.

833
00:47:09.480 --> 00:47:12.039
<v Speaker 1>So there, you know, as you go through this instructional process,

834
00:47:12.079 --> 00:47:13.800
<v Speaker 1>and I hear this a lot because I talk to

835
00:47:13.960 --> 00:47:17.920
<v Speaker 1>a lot of guys and organizations, and it is probably

836
00:47:18.000 --> 00:47:22.320
<v Speaker 1>the most challenging aspect of the player development process is

837
00:47:22.880 --> 00:47:26.039
<v Speaker 1>getting an aggressive guy to become a little bit more

838
00:47:26.079 --> 00:47:29.119
<v Speaker 1>selective and getting a passive guy to become more aggressive,

839
00:47:29.599 --> 00:47:32.440
<v Speaker 1>because it's so easy to tack too far the other

840
00:47:32.519 --> 00:47:36.079
<v Speaker 1>way and totally mess up the players approach and guys

841
00:47:36.960 --> 00:47:39.880
<v Speaker 1>organizations struggle with this all the time.

842
00:47:40.800 --> 00:47:45.079
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, because once you undo something, to get it

843
00:47:45.239 --> 00:47:48.039
<v Speaker 2>back to the do stage is not an easy process

844
00:47:48.119 --> 00:47:51.960
<v Speaker 2>and it's very time consuming. It is, so yeah, if

845
00:47:52.480 --> 00:47:55.199
<v Speaker 2>if you err at this part of the program, the

846
00:47:55.360 --> 00:47:57.519
<v Speaker 2>costs could be enormous. That's really good.

847
00:47:58.280 --> 00:48:00.960
<v Speaker 1>Essek Paratus is definitely down from where was last season

848
00:48:01.400 --> 00:48:03.920
<v Speaker 1>as one eighty four. I thought people ever drafted him,

849
00:48:03.960 --> 00:48:07.519
<v Speaker 1>and he's back down to where he probably needs to be. Timmy,

850
00:48:07.519 --> 00:48:09.880
<v Speaker 1>he's a good player, not a great player.

851
00:48:10.840 --> 00:48:13.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I totally agree. I do like the fact that

852
00:48:14.039 --> 00:48:17.039
<v Speaker 2>he's he's going to be playing in the two hole

853
00:48:17.360 --> 00:48:19.280
<v Speaker 2>this year. I think the run score number could be

854
00:48:19.360 --> 00:48:22.000
<v Speaker 2>up a little bit, but I think he's a twenty

855
00:48:22.039 --> 00:48:22.639
<v Speaker 2>home run bad.

856
00:48:23.719 --> 00:48:26.039
<v Speaker 1>Josh Young was a You were a big proponent of

857
00:48:26.119 --> 00:48:31.320
<v Speaker 1>Josh Young last season, and are you sourying a little bit,

858
00:48:31.480 --> 00:48:34.840
<v Speaker 1>just a little tired of can't stay healthy? Well?

859
00:48:35.000 --> 00:48:38.000
<v Speaker 2>It would be nice to see a full season. Yeah,

860
00:48:38.400 --> 00:48:42.199
<v Speaker 2>when you can count the injuries incurred on not one

861
00:48:42.280 --> 00:48:44.159
<v Speaker 2>but two hands over the past three or four years,

862
00:48:44.239 --> 00:48:47.239
<v Speaker 2>that's not a good sign. It is not no And

863
00:48:47.639 --> 00:48:49.679
<v Speaker 2>you know, if you take a little bit of a

864
00:48:49.960 --> 00:48:52.840
<v Speaker 2>look at some underlying stats, he's he's a pretty much

865
00:48:52.920 --> 00:48:57.159
<v Speaker 2>free swinging sort of guy. I don't think the batting average.

866
00:48:57.159 --> 00:48:59.079
<v Speaker 2>I think it's gonna be pressure on the batting average.

867
00:48:59.519 --> 00:49:02.039
<v Speaker 2>But the big thing is he's got he's gonna stay

868
00:49:02.079 --> 00:49:05.800
<v Speaker 2>on the field, and he hasn't. He hasn't done it

869
00:49:05.880 --> 00:49:09.559
<v Speaker 2>thus far. So you know, how do you, hey, Josh

870
00:49:09.920 --> 00:49:15.119
<v Speaker 2>Josh Young could be a top fifteen third base type,

871
00:49:15.599 --> 00:49:17.880
<v Speaker 2>but he's got to do it, and thus far it

872
00:49:18.199 --> 00:49:19.000
<v Speaker 2>just hasn't happened.

873
00:49:19.800 --> 00:49:22.840
<v Speaker 1>Twenty one through thirty, Tim's got Matt Shaw seven higher

874
00:49:22.880 --> 00:49:25.360
<v Speaker 1>than the NFC. Tim will explain himself in a few minutes.

875
00:49:25.440 --> 00:49:28.119
<v Speaker 1>Conder Norby. Tim's starting to build the statue in front

876
00:49:28.119 --> 00:49:30.519
<v Speaker 1>of his house. I'm a little surprised that he's chalked

877
00:49:30.559 --> 00:49:33.079
<v Speaker 1>with the NFC at twenty two, but he is. Willie

878
00:49:33.119 --> 00:49:36.639
<v Speaker 1>Castro at twenty three, Jose Cavaleria up twenty four, Ryan

879
00:49:36.760 --> 00:49:39.360
<v Speaker 1>McMahon at twenty five, Matt Verlin, Rich Wilson big fan

880
00:49:39.440 --> 00:49:42.679
<v Speaker 1>of Matt Verling at twenty six, Dylan Moore plays Everywhere

881
00:49:42.679 --> 00:49:46.000
<v Speaker 1>at twenty seven, Joey Ortiz at twenty eight, My Guy

882
00:49:46.159 --> 00:49:48.599
<v Speaker 1>Temp nine up, finally starting to see the light with

883
00:49:48.679 --> 00:49:53.440
<v Speaker 1>Jose Teenya at twenty nine, in Heimer Candelaria at thirty ten.

884
00:49:53.840 --> 00:49:55.000
<v Speaker 1>Make the case for Matt Shaw.

885
00:49:56.880 --> 00:50:02.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh, okay, Matt show, Here's here's here's case. Match is

886
00:50:02.079 --> 00:50:04.960
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty four, minor league numbers, twenty one home runs,

887
00:50:05.199 --> 00:50:11.880
<v Speaker 2>thirty one stolen basis. That's my case with world kids

888
00:50:11.920 --> 00:50:14.440
<v Speaker 2>got a world of talent if the Cubs, If he

889
00:50:14.559 --> 00:50:19.199
<v Speaker 2>gets and wins the job, the upside there is huge.

890
00:50:19.840 --> 00:50:23.119
<v Speaker 1>Would you be ballsy enough to make him your starting

891
00:50:23.239 --> 00:50:26.840
<v Speaker 1>third basement in your draft?

892
00:50:28.119 --> 00:50:32.400
<v Speaker 2>If I was going to gamble, Yes, so you.

893
00:50:32.400 --> 00:50:35.480
<v Speaker 1>Would take Matt Shaw as your third base and then

894
00:50:35.559 --> 00:50:38.480
<v Speaker 1>backfill him with somebody that you know is going to

895
00:50:38.559 --> 00:50:41.360
<v Speaker 1>get at bats in case it blows up on you.

896
00:50:41.480 --> 00:50:42.639
<v Speaker 2>Who would that be exactly?

897
00:50:43.320 --> 00:50:53.000
<v Speaker 1>Oh, don't say Ryan Man, or you'll be off the show. No, no, no, Well,

898
00:50:53.119 --> 00:50:54.599
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry that was too much of a threat.

899
00:50:55.199 --> 00:51:06.679
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I think I'd rather have Jim Okay, I would

900
00:51:06.800 --> 00:51:15.800
<v Speaker 2>look at somebody in Nolan Ernado. Ah maybe yeah, No,

901
00:51:15.920 --> 00:51:18.199
<v Speaker 2>I can't do It would have to be somebody fairly

902
00:51:18.239 --> 00:51:21.519
<v Speaker 2>safe and boring. Jose Miranda. Maybe I k F I

903
00:51:21.639 --> 00:51:23.039
<v Speaker 2>might be able to get I might be able to

904
00:51:23.079 --> 00:51:25.199
<v Speaker 2>get teen you there and double down on my gam

905
00:51:25.360 --> 00:51:25.920
<v Speaker 2>like Jo.

906
00:51:26.800 --> 00:51:27.840
<v Speaker 1>That would be fascinating.

907
00:51:28.719 --> 00:51:33.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Joey Orchies is a very He's going late enough

908
00:51:34.000 --> 00:51:39.440
<v Speaker 2>you could probably pick up Ortiz and uh, I start

909
00:51:39.480 --> 00:51:42.280
<v Speaker 2>of like Joey Orchies. Yeah, he's his glove's going to

910
00:51:42.360 --> 00:51:43.000
<v Speaker 2>keep him on the field.

911
00:51:43.360 --> 00:51:43.559
<v Speaker 1>Yep.

912
00:51:44.000 --> 00:51:46.039
<v Speaker 2>He's not going to ask you for huge power or

913
00:51:46.199 --> 00:51:48.719
<v Speaker 2>he'll steal some basses for you. But I would want

914
00:51:48.760 --> 00:51:50.800
<v Speaker 2>to pair him up with somebody that I felt was

915
00:51:50.880 --> 00:51:56.360
<v Speaker 2>going to minimal risk okay of not being of not

916
00:51:56.559 --> 00:51:58.559
<v Speaker 2>playing Ortiz fits I build you a tea.

917
00:51:58.960 --> 00:52:01.119
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Ortiz is a ten ten kind of guy I

918
00:52:01.159 --> 00:52:03.320
<v Speaker 1>think with a chance to be at twelve, twelve, fifteen

919
00:52:03.360 --> 00:52:05.199
<v Speaker 1>to fifteenth type player. Yeah, I think there could be.

920
00:52:06.079 --> 00:52:10.000
<v Speaker 1>But I I if Matt Schoff we get closer to

921
00:52:10.920 --> 00:52:13.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, the let's call it, let's call it

922
00:52:13.840 --> 00:52:18.239
<v Speaker 1>open when catchers and pictures report. Uh, if we start

923
00:52:18.280 --> 00:52:20.880
<v Speaker 1>to get to that point and Bregman a sign elsewhere

924
00:52:22.039 --> 00:52:23.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm moving Matt Shaw up.

925
00:52:24.840 --> 00:52:27.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I think that's a good I think that's a

926
00:52:27.280 --> 00:52:30.760
<v Speaker 2>good call. Right now is ADP's at what three twenty one?

927
00:52:30.880 --> 00:52:33.119
<v Speaker 2>Which is what twentieth round? Twenty first round?

928
00:52:33.280 --> 00:52:35.079
<v Speaker 1>It's right there that next column, right next to a

929
00:52:35.159 --> 00:52:36.280
<v Speaker 1>twenty second round.

930
00:52:36.159 --> 00:52:42.000
<v Speaker 2>Too, ah, twenty second. Well, the things you notice when

931
00:52:42.039 --> 00:52:45.159
<v Speaker 2>you told them, God damn.

932
00:52:45.519 --> 00:52:53.840
<v Speaker 1>Do that little first line that says round the title. Damn, damn, damn.

933
00:52:54.000 --> 00:52:59.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing all these calculations. Okay, note to self, need

934
00:52:59.840 --> 00:53:03.400
<v Speaker 2>more coffee before doing podcasts in the morning. Yeah, no,

935
00:53:03.639 --> 00:53:07.880
<v Speaker 2>I you know where you're looking at currently. You move

936
00:53:07.960 --> 00:53:10.360
<v Speaker 2>Matt Shop into the two eighty range, you're gonna get

937
00:53:10.440 --> 00:53:14.079
<v Speaker 2>him right now. Yeah, yeah, I don't have any problems

938
00:53:14.119 --> 00:53:17.800
<v Speaker 2>with doing that. You're talking after the seventeenth, eighteenth round.

939
00:53:17.880 --> 00:53:22.679
<v Speaker 2>Anything you do right there's risk yep and the rewards

940
00:53:22.760 --> 00:53:25.519
<v Speaker 2>potentially on a player like Matt Shah are such that

941
00:53:26.119 --> 00:53:27.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm willing to take the risk.

942
00:53:29.039 --> 00:53:32.280
<v Speaker 1>Why isn't Connor Norby a top ten third basement for you? Now?

943
00:53:32.360 --> 00:53:33.280
<v Speaker 1>You talk about them.

944
00:53:33.239 --> 00:53:40.079
<v Speaker 2>All the time, because there are players I like better

945
00:53:40.159 --> 00:53:44.239
<v Speaker 2>than Connor Norby. As much as I hate to say it. Yeah,

946
00:53:44.280 --> 00:53:46.079
<v Speaker 2>I like Connor Norby. He's going to be on a

947
00:53:46.119 --> 00:53:49.360
<v Speaker 2>few of my teams. I like the upside, but there's

948
00:53:51.719 --> 00:53:56.039
<v Speaker 2>it's Miami that definitely has suppressed his value a bit

949
00:53:56.199 --> 00:53:59.880
<v Speaker 2>because it's fair. Yeah, when you look at Miami's offense,

950
00:54:00.000 --> 00:54:03.480
<v Speaker 2>it's offensive. I like Norby, but I'm not going to

951
00:54:04.079 --> 00:54:08.440
<v Speaker 2>and I don't think you have to overpay as a

952
00:54:08.639 --> 00:54:09.679
<v Speaker 2>corner infield type.

953
00:54:10.679 --> 00:54:13.599
<v Speaker 1>If you get caught out and you look back to

954
00:54:13.719 --> 00:54:18.159
<v Speaker 1>your team and you're sitting in sixteen seventeenth, eighteenth round

955
00:54:18.280 --> 00:54:21.920
<v Speaker 1>and are short on short on stolen basis, do you

956
00:54:22.039 --> 00:54:31.360
<v Speaker 1>start to then target Willie Castro or and or Jose Cavalerio. Uh, yeah,

957
00:54:32.159 --> 00:54:33.280
<v Speaker 1>for a corner infielder.

958
00:54:34.119 --> 00:54:37.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I Again, if I'm caught out and I'm strong,

959
00:54:37.559 --> 00:54:39.920
<v Speaker 2>I think I'd like Castro a little better.

960
00:54:40.840 --> 00:54:44.920
<v Speaker 1>And both of them have multi position eligibilities second base, shortstop,

961
00:54:45.079 --> 00:54:50.440
<v Speaker 1>outfield for Willie Castro and Cavalario's second base and shortstop

962
00:54:50.519 --> 00:54:52.239
<v Speaker 1>and third base. Those guys are pretty valuable.

963
00:54:52.800 --> 00:54:59.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah they are. They aren't my initial targets, but if

964
00:55:00.079 --> 00:55:02.519
<v Speaker 2>it shook down that I had to have one of

965
00:55:02.599 --> 00:55:06.079
<v Speaker 2>the two of them to make things work, yeah, I'd

966
00:55:06.079 --> 00:55:07.159
<v Speaker 2>definitely give them a look.

967
00:55:07.800 --> 00:55:09.880
<v Speaker 1>Hose eighteen is one of my guys, Simmy. It's good

968
00:55:09.920 --> 00:55:11.880
<v Speaker 1>to see that he's in the top thirty. Here, Tim

969
00:55:11.920 --> 00:55:14.480
<v Speaker 1>writes a little pop, a little speed and supporting hard

970
00:55:14.559 --> 00:55:16.719
<v Speaker 1>hit rates and sprint speeds and sport better than we've

971
00:55:16.760 --> 00:55:20.440
<v Speaker 1>seen so far. Tina makes an intriguing option deeper formats.

972
00:55:20.440 --> 00:55:22.960
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't have said it better, my friend. As long

973
00:55:23.000 --> 00:55:25.599
<v Speaker 1>as he as long as they don't hire Bregman or

974
00:55:26.239 --> 00:55:29.679
<v Speaker 1>somebody else, I'll Jose eighteen has got a chance to

975
00:55:30.559 --> 00:55:32.239
<v Speaker 1>to really return value here.

976
00:55:33.559 --> 00:55:38.480
<v Speaker 2>Totally agree. What's his ADP right now? Five? Yeah, let

977
00:55:38.480 --> 00:55:41.679
<v Speaker 2>me let me to come up with thirty six.

978
00:55:44.920 --> 00:55:47.000
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna ask you like I went round him,

979
00:55:47.079 --> 00:55:48.679
<v Speaker 1>but he beat me to the punch.

980
00:55:50.079 --> 00:55:52.840
<v Speaker 2>My Avoca says, way too much mileage on that today.

981
00:55:52.599 --> 00:55:54.960
<v Speaker 1>Rich, good stuff to me. It's take a break and

982
00:55:55.039 --> 00:55:57.440
<v Speaker 1>start to pop around these last thirty six.

983
00:55:57.559 --> 00:55:57.760
<v Speaker 2>You have.

984
00:56:08.079 --> 00:56:12.360
<v Speaker 1>I spent the last few days ten knows because we talked,

985
00:56:12.519 --> 00:56:16.079
<v Speaker 1>we gonna we talked with day? Did we talk Wednesday?

986
00:56:18.119 --> 00:56:20.199
<v Speaker 2>I think it was Wednesday? Yeah, it was a day. Yeah,

987
00:56:20.239 --> 00:56:22.679
<v Speaker 2>it was the day before you were heading out Friday.

988
00:56:23.000 --> 00:56:29.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Foolishly, I decided to do another Dynasty League with

989
00:56:29.800 --> 00:56:32.639
<v Speaker 1>our Patreon members, and we had so much interest. I

990
00:56:32.760 --> 00:56:35.360
<v Speaker 1>was able to do two leagues, which is double foolishly

991
00:56:36.199 --> 00:56:39.400
<v Speaker 1>and that gives me now twelve Dynasty leagues, which is

992
00:56:39.519 --> 00:56:43.440
<v Speaker 1>totally insane. And the draft starts tomorrow night at seven pm,

993
00:56:43.519 --> 00:56:47.000
<v Speaker 1>four hour slow draft on fan Tracks. Everybody, you know,

00:57:05.599 --> 00:57:08.280
<v Speaker 1>sponsors of ours, and we love what fan tracks does.

1001
00:57:08.800 --> 00:57:10.719
<v Speaker 1>One of the things I like, Tim Tim calls and

1002
00:57:10.800 --> 00:57:13.719
<v Speaker 1>I what did I say? Tim? What am I doing?

1003
00:57:14.599 --> 00:57:15.760
<v Speaker 2>Why? Why?

1004
00:57:16.119 --> 00:57:20.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Tim says what. I pick up the phone. It's Tim.

1005
00:57:21.719 --> 00:57:22.320
<v Speaker 1>How's it going? Tim?

1006
00:57:22.400 --> 00:57:22.559
<v Speaker 2>Good?

1007
00:57:22.599 --> 00:57:25.800
<v Speaker 1>He goes, I go, guess what I'm doing? Tim? Ranking players?

1008
00:57:26.440 --> 00:57:29.280
<v Speaker 1>So I had to rank I mean hundreds of players,

1009
00:57:29.360 --> 00:57:31.079
<v Speaker 1>but I got to go through this draft, Timmy. And

1010
00:57:31.559 --> 00:57:33.679
<v Speaker 1>you know, Dynasty League draft is much different than a

1011
00:57:33.719 --> 00:57:36.199
<v Speaker 1>regular draft, and you know you can't use the rankings

1012
00:57:36.280 --> 00:57:38.920
<v Speaker 1>there so I've had to rank everybody, and I was

1013
00:57:39.000 --> 00:57:41.039
<v Speaker 1>able with fan Tracks do all in a spreadsheet and

1014
00:57:41.119 --> 00:57:43.880
<v Speaker 1>then pop that spreadsheet up into there to have my

1015
00:57:44.039 --> 00:57:45.800
<v Speaker 1>rankings there. So I'm pretty excited about that.

1016
00:57:46.000 --> 00:57:47.400
<v Speaker 2>But does it look good?

1017
00:57:48.280 --> 00:57:50.199
<v Speaker 1>What's that your ranking?

1018
00:57:50.280 --> 00:57:53.679
<v Speaker 2>Once you try? Once you migrated them into fan tracks.

1019
00:57:53.760 --> 00:57:57.960
<v Speaker 1>That's perfect. Yeah, everybody, everybody that except for Jung Ho

1020
00:57:58.119 --> 00:58:00.840
<v Speaker 1>Lee goes up in there. Jung Holy off last season.

1021
00:58:01.119 --> 00:58:02.719
<v Speaker 1>He's not going in this season. I don't know what

1022
00:58:02.760 --> 00:58:05.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing wrong. I don't get it, because you have

1023
00:58:06.039 --> 00:58:09.039
<v Speaker 1>to you have to have the team and the name,

1024
00:58:09.239 --> 00:58:11.079
<v Speaker 1>the player's name is spelled correctly. As long as you

1025
00:58:11.159 --> 00:58:14.920
<v Speaker 1>have that, and I have spelled Jung Ho Lee's name

1026
00:58:15.079 --> 00:58:17.400
<v Speaker 1>every which way, I can't. It just won't accept it

1027
00:58:17.599 --> 00:58:20.079
<v Speaker 1>period in the statement. So I guess they won't be

1028
00:58:20.199 --> 00:58:23.800
<v Speaker 1>drafting Young holy So because he's not on my rankings.

1029
00:58:24.679 --> 00:58:27.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I was gonna say he's not on your radar now.

1030
00:58:27.559 --> 00:58:30.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. So what happens is it's it's like doing your

1031
00:58:30.880 --> 00:58:33.360
<v Speaker 1>own rankings, which you would go in manually do that.

1032
00:58:33.960 --> 00:58:37.119
<v Speaker 1>It just replaces it. And let's say you put in

1033
00:58:37.199 --> 00:58:39.320
<v Speaker 1>a list of three hundred names, Well, the three hundred

1034
00:58:39.400 --> 00:58:44.039
<v Speaker 1>first name becomes the next highest ranked player from fan.

1035
00:58:43.960 --> 00:58:48.000
<v Speaker 2>Tracks, okay, which is sort of good. You can see

1036
00:58:48.920 --> 00:58:51.519
<v Speaker 2>where there's discrepancies and it might be cause for you

1037
00:58:51.639 --> 00:58:53.880
<v Speaker 2>to re evaluate some of your thought processes.

1038
00:58:54.000 --> 00:58:56.480
<v Speaker 1>Right that is that is correct, And you can also

1039
00:58:56.599 --> 00:58:59.280
<v Speaker 1>switch between the two. You can have my rankings and

1040
00:58:59.320 --> 00:59:01.400
<v Speaker 1>then you can switch over to the fan tracks rankings

1041
00:59:01.440 --> 00:59:04.760
<v Speaker 1>if you want to see what they have. And then

1042
00:59:04.800 --> 00:59:07.360
<v Speaker 1>once I get towards the back of it, then I'll

1043
00:59:07.440 --> 00:59:10.440
<v Speaker 1>slurp up all the prospects you know, all the you know,

1044
00:59:10.679 --> 00:59:12.199
<v Speaker 1>so then i'll have you know when I'm in the

1045
00:59:12.320 --> 00:59:15.599
<v Speaker 1>prospects probably only type of then I'll just slurp all

1046
00:59:15.599 --> 00:59:18.480
<v Speaker 1>the prospects in and have those rankings in there. So

1047
00:59:18.679 --> 00:59:21.239
<v Speaker 1>it works up. There's a lot of sophistication in there.

1048
00:59:21.320 --> 00:59:24.119
<v Speaker 1>But Timmy, I could be crazy that I'm doing two

1049
00:59:24.239 --> 00:59:26.920
<v Speaker 1>more dynasty leagues. It might be too much for me.

1050
00:59:27.000 --> 00:59:31.039
<v Speaker 2>We'll see, could be. Do I get a vote? That's

1051
00:59:31.320 --> 00:59:34.000
<v Speaker 2>that's insane. Rich. I wish you're well with it, but man,

1052
00:59:34.079 --> 00:59:34.880
<v Speaker 2>that's a lot of work.

1053
00:59:35.079 --> 00:59:37.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but it's gonna be fun drafting to me. So

1054
00:59:38.280 --> 00:59:42.159
<v Speaker 1>I think I'm drafting six to one league in twelfth

1055
00:59:42.320 --> 00:59:44.960
<v Speaker 1>or so in another league, so I don't know if

1056
00:59:45.000 --> 00:59:46.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to go. You know, I wrote a note

1057
00:59:46.880 --> 00:59:50.039
<v Speaker 1>to everybody just giving them some thoughts and these dinings

1058
00:59:50.079 --> 00:59:52.840
<v Speaker 1>of league startups. I mean, you've got to make the decision,

1059
00:59:53.400 --> 00:59:55.840
<v Speaker 1>and usually the draft will dictate do you want to

1060
00:59:55.880 --> 00:59:59.119
<v Speaker 1>go really young and play for a championship in you know,

1061
00:59:59.280 --> 01:00:01.639
<v Speaker 1>two to four years, or do you want to go

1062
01:00:01.840 --> 01:00:04.199
<v Speaker 1>for it now and know that your team's going to

1063
01:00:04.239 --> 01:00:06.760
<v Speaker 1>stink in two to four years. So I mean you

1064
01:00:06.920 --> 01:00:09.079
<v Speaker 1>need to if you play it in the middle, that's

1065
01:00:09.280 --> 01:00:12.039
<v Speaker 1>tough position to be in, right, you know, don't try

1066
01:00:12.079 --> 01:00:15.000
<v Speaker 1>to play both sides of it. So you know, we'll

1067
01:00:15.000 --> 01:00:15.960
<v Speaker 1>see how the.

1068
01:00:16.000 --> 01:00:18.440
<v Speaker 2>Worst spot you can be in in a dynasty league,

1069
01:00:18.440 --> 01:00:20.880
<v Speaker 2>in my opinion, is a mid BAC team. That's right,

1070
01:00:21.280 --> 01:00:26.559
<v Speaker 2>You're not going down. Congratulations, you've now finished six five

1071
01:00:26.639 --> 01:00:29.639
<v Speaker 2>years in a row. Yeah, your reward for that is

1072
01:00:29.840 --> 01:00:31.800
<v Speaker 2>probably a rebuild.

1073
01:00:32.679 --> 01:00:36.239
<v Speaker 1>Which is tough. I mean, it's rebuilds are really tough.

1074
01:00:36.400 --> 01:00:39.880
<v Speaker 1>So so I just told everybody, Look, if you decide

1075
01:00:39.920 --> 01:00:43.039
<v Speaker 1>to go young, don't bail after the first year when

1076
01:00:43.039 --> 01:00:45.360
<v Speaker 1>you got a thirteenth place team, because that's what you

1077
01:00:45.760 --> 01:00:49.400
<v Speaker 1>drafted for. And also, you know, if you draft the

1078
01:00:49.480 --> 01:00:51.119
<v Speaker 1>team to win now and you let's see you get

1079
01:00:51.159 --> 01:00:53.239
<v Speaker 1>in the money. Don't quit after the third year when

1080
01:00:53.280 --> 01:00:57.400
<v Speaker 1>your team stinks. You know, it's like you're going to

1081
01:00:57.440 --> 01:00:59.719
<v Speaker 1>probably pick one of the other path and we'll see

1082
01:00:59.800 --> 01:01:02.199
<v Speaker 1>what what happens. And I just think it's fascinating. We're

1083
01:01:02.199 --> 01:01:05.199
<v Speaker 1>talking about Rafael Devers and there's kind of they will drop.

1084
01:01:05.440 --> 01:01:08.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean they won't go as high as Roman Anthony

1085
01:01:08.400 --> 01:01:09.920
<v Speaker 1>will go up in front of Rafael Devers.

1086
01:01:09.960 --> 01:01:15.159
<v Speaker 2>He just will Andcot and Bissello and yeah, they're gonna

1087
01:01:15.159 --> 01:01:15.559
<v Speaker 2>see huge.

1088
01:01:15.880 --> 01:01:18.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they're gonna go way before, Like Michael Trout will

1089
01:01:18.480 --> 01:01:20.599
<v Speaker 1>go in the tenth round and you're gonna be going,

1090
01:01:20.679 --> 01:01:23.119
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, like what is happening here? It's Michael

1091
01:01:23.159 --> 01:01:25.239
<v Speaker 1>Trout or not. Michael Trout could go on the fifteenth.

1092
01:01:25.639 --> 01:01:29.880
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be crazy stuff and and and so so

1093
01:01:29.960 --> 01:01:33.199
<v Speaker 1>I also wrote like your emotions are gonna take over.

1094
01:01:33.239 --> 01:01:36.000
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna see these famous players that are really good,

1095
01:01:36.440 --> 01:01:38.559
<v Speaker 1>and you go, when do I draft them? No one knows,

1096
01:01:38.880 --> 01:01:41.159
<v Speaker 1>just it. That's what's fun on these drafts. I mean,

1097
01:01:41.199 --> 01:01:42.960
<v Speaker 1>these guys will sit at the top of the queue

1098
01:01:43.400 --> 01:01:45.760
<v Speaker 1>and why aren't they going they're good players? Well, because

1099
01:01:45.800 --> 01:01:48.480
<v Speaker 1>you want Roman Anthony, Well.

1100
01:01:48.400 --> 01:01:52.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Junior Cavnaro a first round pick.

1101
01:01:52.360 --> 01:01:55.079
<v Speaker 1>Probably, yes, probably, yes.

1102
01:01:55.960 --> 01:01:58.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's it's it's a different world, it is.

1103
01:01:59.079 --> 01:02:01.840
<v Speaker 1>It's Jackson Cheerio a top five player.

1104
01:02:03.519 --> 01:02:07.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, No. I totally agree though, with what you

1105
01:02:07.880 --> 01:02:09.960
<v Speaker 2>were saying as far as building your team, if you're

1106
01:02:10.000 --> 01:02:13.440
<v Speaker 2>committing to a couple of years out, you got to

1107
01:02:13.519 --> 01:02:16.000
<v Speaker 2>be very very careful that you don't get caught up.

1108
01:02:16.079 --> 01:02:19.199
<v Speaker 2>And this guy has fallen so much. I got to

1109
01:02:19.239 --> 01:02:20.519
<v Speaker 2>take him. I got to hey him. No, you got

1110
01:02:20.639 --> 01:02:22.960
<v Speaker 2>a plan, stick to your plan. It's when you start

1111
01:02:23.039 --> 01:02:27.280
<v Speaker 2>deviating from that plan ten rounds into a draft, did

1112
01:02:27.320 --> 01:02:28.960
<v Speaker 2>you end up in a real mess, because then you

1113
01:02:29.039 --> 01:02:32.800
<v Speaker 2>don't have either either You've got or and that's not good.

1114
01:02:33.400 --> 01:02:36.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Our friend Tim Webber, who's plays a lot of time,

1115
01:02:36.639 --> 01:02:38.679
<v Speaker 1>so he's a really good player. By the way, one

1116
01:02:39.039 --> 01:02:42.000
<v Speaker 1>DL four against me and I had a great team

1117
01:02:42.079 --> 01:02:44.760
<v Speaker 1>and he just blew rock pass. So I hate him now.

1118
01:02:45.199 --> 01:02:48.480
<v Speaker 1>But he's got a team that he drafted last season

1119
01:02:48.800 --> 01:02:50.960
<v Speaker 1>and he went boss to the wall man. He went

1120
01:02:51.119 --> 01:02:55.760
<v Speaker 1>Junior Cambinario, Jackson Cheerio, Dylan Sees not Dylan Cruz. I

1121
01:02:55.800 --> 01:02:57.880
<v Speaker 1>don't know who log but he went like the first

1122
01:02:57.960 --> 01:03:00.920
<v Speaker 1>ten rounds, he went really really young, and his team stunk,

1123
01:03:01.320 --> 01:03:02.480
<v Speaker 1>and all of a sudden, you look at it this

1124
01:03:02.639 --> 01:03:05.519
<v Speaker 1>season and go, wow, that's a good looking team. So

1125
01:03:07.039 --> 01:03:10.039
<v Speaker 1>your fortunes can change very very quickly in this format.

1126
01:03:10.920 --> 01:03:14.280
<v Speaker 2>Yes, they surely, surely can give me a second.

1127
01:03:14.320 --> 01:03:17.960
<v Speaker 1>I have to let beans out of here. So he's

1128
01:03:18.199 --> 01:03:20.400
<v Speaker 1>tired of doing the podcast with the Stimmys saying we're

1129
01:03:20.440 --> 01:03:21.079
<v Speaker 1>going too long.

1130
01:03:22.679 --> 01:03:23.639
<v Speaker 2>He wants to play catch.

1131
01:03:24.239 --> 01:03:26.760
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, it's what time is? Eleven twenty two. Yeah,

1132
01:03:27.320 --> 01:03:30.000
<v Speaker 1>they're both probably sitting out in the living room with

1133
01:03:30.079 --> 01:03:32.159
<v Speaker 1>the balls and their mouths waiting for me to throw

1134
01:03:32.320 --> 01:03:35.519
<v Speaker 1>the ball. So all right, Timmy, let's bounce around here.

1135
01:03:36.119 --> 01:03:41.159
<v Speaker 1>Thirty one. Let's see Jace Young? Is that thirty five?

1136
01:03:41.239 --> 01:03:43.199
<v Speaker 1>Tell me what you think about Jay Young, Josh Young's

1137
01:03:43.199 --> 01:03:43.639
<v Speaker 1>little brother.

1138
01:03:46.000 --> 01:03:48.760
<v Speaker 2>I think there's a lot to like. We haven't seen

1139
01:03:48.800 --> 01:03:52.760
<v Speaker 2>any of the big league levels, so I think in

1140
01:03:52.960 --> 01:03:58.719
<v Speaker 2>regraft leagues. Yeah, he's a reserve round target.

1141
01:04:00.000 --> 01:04:03.440
<v Speaker 1>Should I bust your chops about Anthony Rendon up twenty

1142
01:04:03.519 --> 01:04:08.400
<v Speaker 1>seven slots over the NFBC. Ah, you could, but I'm

1143
01:04:08.440 --> 01:04:10.440
<v Speaker 1>assuming he's there because he has a full time job.

1144
01:04:11.039 --> 01:04:16.199
<v Speaker 2>That's exactly why he's there. Exactly, the NFFC is just

1145
01:04:16.239 --> 01:04:17.760
<v Speaker 2>staying totally away from him.

1146
01:04:19.159 --> 01:04:21.639
<v Speaker 1>You can't blame them, Tim, No, Yeah, I can't.

1147
01:04:21.679 --> 01:04:24.760
<v Speaker 2>I can't blame I can't blame them. No, Am I

1148
01:04:24.920 --> 01:04:28.239
<v Speaker 2>targeting Anthony Rendo rendome because I've got him twenty seven

1149
01:04:28.280 --> 01:04:32.480
<v Speaker 2>spots hired? No, I'm not targeting Anthony Rendo, but he

1150
01:04:32.559 --> 01:04:36.480
<v Speaker 2>could hit twenty homers and driving needy runs. Yeah, Am

1151
01:04:36.519 --> 01:04:39.800
<v Speaker 2>I gonna bet no? But I think the fact that

1152
01:04:39.880 --> 01:04:41.519
<v Speaker 2>he's got the job has to come into play at

1153
01:04:41.559 --> 01:04:42.360
<v Speaker 2>some point in time.

1154
01:04:44.079 --> 01:04:47.039
<v Speaker 1>After the top thirty. It's boring. I'm just gonna say

1155
01:04:47.159 --> 01:04:48.960
<v Speaker 1>flat out, there's a lot of There's a lot of

1156
01:04:49.440 --> 01:04:52.800
<v Speaker 1>except for a couple of names, and that comes in

1157
01:04:53.079 --> 01:04:57.880
<v Speaker 1>at number thirty nine with Noville Marte and number forty

1158
01:04:57.960 --> 01:05:03.639
<v Speaker 1>four if Kobe Mayo. Yes, I know you're a little

1159
01:05:03.679 --> 01:05:06.239
<v Speaker 1>bit lower on them than the NFBC, and I get

1160
01:05:06.280 --> 01:05:09.559
<v Speaker 1>it because there's doesn't appear to be a path for

1161
01:05:09.760 --> 01:05:13.079
<v Speaker 1>both of for either one of these guys. But exactly,

1162
01:05:13.440 --> 01:05:17.119
<v Speaker 1>they're pretty good baseball players. Is it would you take

1163
01:05:17.159 --> 01:05:19.400
<v Speaker 1>a Campbell in the draft and hold on these guys

1164
01:05:19.840 --> 01:05:23.000
<v Speaker 1>or is it it just just gonna stay away.

1165
01:05:24.159 --> 01:05:28.000
<v Speaker 2>Uh no, I'm I'm I'm definitely not staying away. I've

1166
01:05:28.039 --> 01:05:31.679
<v Speaker 2>got Marte in one of my I drafted him last

1167
01:05:31.719 --> 01:05:37.199
<v Speaker 2>fall in the xfl MM. I like the talent, I

1168
01:05:37.360 --> 01:05:39.760
<v Speaker 2>like the potential. But at the same point in time,

1169
01:05:41.719 --> 01:05:45.400
<v Speaker 2>what guarantees do we have right now? None?

1170
01:05:46.280 --> 01:05:46.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

1171
01:05:47.039 --> 01:05:50.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Reds could decide his pendance for last year is

1172
01:05:50.480 --> 01:05:52.679
<v Speaker 2>going to be served this year as well, right, and

1173
01:05:52.800 --> 01:05:54.960
<v Speaker 2>he could sit down on a farm all year, couldn't he?

1174
01:05:55.239 --> 01:05:58.400
<v Speaker 1>He could? What about Kobe Mayo, I mean, obviously he's

1175
01:05:58.679 --> 01:06:03.280
<v Speaker 1>he's blocked two ways to particularly if Jackson Holiday gets

1176
01:06:03.320 --> 01:06:05.840
<v Speaker 1>off to a strong start. But that's a guy's a

1177
01:06:05.920 --> 01:06:08.320
<v Speaker 1>good player and he has nothing left to prove in

1178
01:06:08.320 --> 01:06:09.079
<v Speaker 1>the minor leagues.

1179
01:06:09.920 --> 01:06:15.960
<v Speaker 2>No, he doesn't. But uh it's breaking breaking cam. I

1180
01:06:16.039 --> 01:06:20.159
<v Speaker 2>can't see a way that he makes a roster and

1181
01:06:20.239 --> 01:06:25.480
<v Speaker 2>Holiday doesn't barring injury. Yeah, So we sit back and wait.

1182
01:06:25.719 --> 01:06:30.239
<v Speaker 2>And it's not that I don't like Kobe Mayo. Uh I,

1183
01:06:30.800 --> 01:06:33.400
<v Speaker 2>there's there's a good they're not a good chance. There's

1184
01:06:33.440 --> 01:06:35.960
<v Speaker 2>a chance that he makes my waiver wire depending on

1185
01:06:36.039 --> 01:06:38.119
<v Speaker 2>what happens to Jackson Holiday. But I'm all in on

1186
01:06:38.239 --> 01:06:41.159
<v Speaker 2>Jackson Holiday. So how do I rank Kobe Mayo, Mayo

1187
01:06:41.360 --> 01:06:45.800
<v Speaker 2>up much higher than where he's at. I also noticed

1188
01:06:45.800 --> 01:06:47.400
<v Speaker 2>that I sort of like the kid in Pittsburgh a

1189
01:06:47.480 --> 01:06:51.440
<v Speaker 2>fair a bit too. Uh what is it, Triola?

1190
01:06:52.559 --> 01:06:56.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Why why do you like anybody in Pittsburgh? Uh?

1191
01:06:57.360 --> 01:07:01.000
<v Speaker 2>Because Paul Skeens needs needs somebody you like other than

1192
01:07:01.079 --> 01:07:04.280
<v Speaker 2>posts Pittsford Bence I like to get. I think he's

1193
01:07:04.320 --> 01:07:06.719
<v Speaker 2>got potential. We'll see what happens.

1194
01:07:06.840 --> 01:07:12.320
<v Speaker 1>But so I just double checked on roster resource just

1195
01:07:12.400 --> 01:07:16.360
<v Speaker 1>to make sure before I suggest this. Okay, Edgie Rosario

1196
01:07:16.480 --> 01:07:20.719
<v Speaker 1>still has a job as we sit here on February first,

1197
01:07:20.800 --> 01:07:25.440
<v Speaker 1>and just like with Jose Tinya and Matt Shall, longer

1198
01:07:25.559 --> 01:07:28.719
<v Speaker 1>he has a job, the more interesting he gets at

1199
01:07:28.760 --> 01:07:29.480
<v Speaker 1>the draft table.

1200
01:07:31.000 --> 01:07:35.039
<v Speaker 2>I agree, because again, right now we're hearing rumors that

1201
01:07:35.119 --> 01:07:37.960
<v Speaker 2>the Padres are looking at moving cease and I can't

1202
01:07:37.960 --> 01:07:40.639
<v Speaker 2>remember who else it is. Yeah, a lot of these,

1203
01:07:40.840 --> 01:07:45.159
<v Speaker 2>a lot of the kids in San Diego might get opportunities.

1204
01:07:46.199 --> 01:07:51.440
<v Speaker 2>And should he get an opportunity, there's definitely some skills there.

1205
01:07:52.320 --> 01:07:56.360
<v Speaker 2>So I wouldn't I wouldn't leave him off your.

1206
01:07:56.360 --> 01:07:59.280
<v Speaker 1>Radar, particular for draft on old leagues.

1207
01:07:59.679 --> 01:08:03.320
<v Speaker 2>Yes, especially in drafting whole leagues, because again, Hey, if

1208
01:08:03.360 --> 01:08:06.559
<v Speaker 2>the podteris go with, hey, there's a no field a

1209
01:08:06.639 --> 01:08:10.559
<v Speaker 2>otfielder there that I like a lot in Churso.

1210
01:08:11.079 --> 01:08:13.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's the same scenario.

1211
01:08:13.320 --> 01:08:17.439
<v Speaker 2>Yep, yeah, exactly. Yeah, you know, these players have some skills,

1212
01:08:17.479 --> 01:08:20.520
<v Speaker 2>it's just where they're San Diego sticks to the plan.

1213
01:08:20.640 --> 01:08:22.640
<v Speaker 2>It looks like the plan might be dumping some salary

1214
01:08:22.720 --> 01:08:23.039
<v Speaker 2>this year.

1215
01:08:24.520 --> 01:08:28.239
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and these guys might get a shot. They just

1216
01:08:28.399 --> 01:08:30.159
<v Speaker 1>might get a shot. There's nobody in the minor leagues

1217
01:08:30.199 --> 01:08:31.920
<v Speaker 1>that's going to take it over. Yeah, they could sign

1218
01:08:31.960 --> 01:08:35.760
<v Speaker 1>a three million dollar outfielder or a three million dollars

1219
01:08:35.800 --> 01:08:37.760
<v Speaker 1>in field or to take every one of these slots.

1220
01:08:37.840 --> 01:08:41.079
<v Speaker 1>But why not see if Terso or Nelius or you

1221
01:08:41.159 --> 01:08:43.319
<v Speaker 1>get Eggie Rosario could play.

1222
01:08:45.079 --> 01:08:47.479
<v Speaker 2>Well, then Hey, the potteries have never been trying about

1223
01:08:47.520 --> 01:08:50.680
<v Speaker 2>giving young kids opportunities. They've pushed people through their miners

1224
01:08:50.720 --> 01:08:52.359
<v Speaker 2>in the past. Well, they got a couple that you're

1225
01:08:52.399 --> 01:08:55.479
<v Speaker 2>just sitting there, right, They could give them that shot.

1226
01:08:55.800 --> 01:08:58.840
<v Speaker 1>All right, Tammy, let me give you the hard questions here. Yeah, okay,

1227
01:09:00.079 --> 01:09:03.359
<v Speaker 1>what play or not in the top ten currently will

1228
01:09:03.479 --> 01:09:04.920
<v Speaker 1>be there next season?

1229
01:09:07.159 --> 01:09:08.880
<v Speaker 2>Not in the top ten.

1230
01:09:09.800 --> 01:09:11.720
<v Speaker 1>So you go to number eleven and you look down.

1231
01:09:12.079 --> 01:09:16.760
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I'm still I'm still mystified by the rowins here.

1232
01:09:20.760 --> 01:09:23.159
<v Speaker 1>I think the calculating, I think the calculation is right.

1233
01:09:23.319 --> 01:09:26.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't just you're mystified because you didn't realize it

1234
01:09:27.000 --> 01:09:27.279
<v Speaker 1>was there.

1235
01:09:27.880 --> 01:09:37.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's like that. I'm gonna I'm gonna go with

1236
01:09:38.520 --> 01:09:44.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna go with Michael Garcia, whoa w easy picks

1237
01:09:44.880 --> 01:09:47.199
<v Speaker 2>would be Boomer and Suarez. But I'm gonna go down

1238
01:09:47.279 --> 01:09:49.399
<v Speaker 2>a little bit further and go with Garcia.

1239
01:09:49.800 --> 01:09:53.560
<v Speaker 1>Hey, man, if that guy hits fifteen eighteen home runs, yes,

1240
01:09:53.760 --> 01:09:56.600
<v Speaker 1>the answer is yes, he's gonna jump up. So yeah,

1241
01:09:56.760 --> 01:09:59.079
<v Speaker 1>I love it. Tim, all right, which which guy? And

1242
01:09:59.199 --> 01:10:06.640
<v Speaker 1>it can't be Jazz Chisholm. He might lose third base eligibility.

1243
01:10:06.680 --> 01:10:08.720
<v Speaker 1>You gotta tell me somebody else that's gonna drop out?

1244
01:10:11.720 --> 01:10:15.479
<v Speaker 1>Uh or Venta is probably gonna lose third base eligibility.

1245
01:10:15.720 --> 01:10:21.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah he loses. Well, Yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna go

1246
01:10:22.039 --> 01:10:23.880
<v Speaker 2>with ry Lewis.

1247
01:10:24.000 --> 01:10:27.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's gotta be m m because yeah.

1248
01:10:28.079 --> 01:10:30.199
<v Speaker 2>He's got to have a season where he gets in

1249
01:10:31.039 --> 01:10:33.680
<v Speaker 2>five hundred plus at bats. He just has to be

1250
01:10:33.960 --> 01:10:36.239
<v Speaker 2>at some point in time. If he doesn't get that,

1251
01:10:36.600 --> 01:10:39.640
<v Speaker 2>are you gonna take the chance next No, no, it's.

1252
01:10:39.720 --> 01:10:42.279
<v Speaker 1>It's it's Byron Buckson all over again. And Byron Buckson

1253
01:10:42.399 --> 01:10:44.399
<v Speaker 1>is going I think his ADPs in the four or

1254
01:10:44.439 --> 01:10:45.399
<v Speaker 1>five hundreds, now.

1255
01:10:45.920 --> 01:10:50.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and he's just yeah, after the thrill is gone, right, Yeah,

1256
01:10:50.359 --> 01:10:54.640
<v Speaker 2>for sure, Ryce Lewis is at that stage after.

1257
01:10:54.439 --> 01:10:57.720
<v Speaker 1>The thrill is gone. That's an eagle song, right it is?

1258
01:10:59.560 --> 01:11:00.920
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I believe Yeah.

1259
01:11:00.960 --> 01:11:04.920
<v Speaker 1>I think so. Yeah. Uh, Junior camin Area. Could Junior

1260
01:11:04.960 --> 01:11:08.000
<v Speaker 1>came in Area become a top three third baseman.

1261
01:11:08.920 --> 01:11:13.199
<v Speaker 2>Yes, okay, I could see. I could see him next

1262
01:11:13.279 --> 01:11:17.319
<v Speaker 2>year potentially being as high as the number two off

1263
01:11:17.359 --> 01:11:19.319
<v Speaker 2>the board. If he goes thirty one hundred this year

1264
01:11:19.399 --> 01:11:22.600
<v Speaker 2>with a strong batting average, that puts him in a

1265
01:11:22.680 --> 01:11:26.119
<v Speaker 2>discussion to be a top five player at third base.

1266
01:11:26.359 --> 01:11:31.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I'm gonna say, hose eighteen, you becomes a first

1267
01:11:31.560 --> 01:11:36.840
<v Speaker 1>a starting third baseman this time next year he's going

1268
01:11:36.920 --> 01:11:38.920
<v Speaker 1>to be in the top fifteen at least.

1269
01:11:40.319 --> 01:11:44.880
<v Speaker 2>Bold But yeah, there's a lot of skills there. Whether

1270
01:11:44.960 --> 01:11:47.359
<v Speaker 2>they come to the fore next year or the year after,

1271
01:11:48.359 --> 01:11:51.680
<v Speaker 2>who knows. But he does have the When you start

1272
01:11:51.760 --> 01:11:57.520
<v Speaker 2>looking at the group from twenty to thirty, the guys

1273
01:11:57.960 --> 01:12:02.000
<v Speaker 2>that have got the huge upside or guys tana uh

1274
01:12:03.439 --> 01:12:07.880
<v Speaker 2>Matt Shaw. Yeah, yeah, if Matt Shaw explodes onto the scene,

1275
01:12:09.000 --> 01:12:11.560
<v Speaker 2>he could move up in a hurry, a real real

1276
01:12:11.680 --> 01:12:12.119
<v Speaker 2>quick hurry.

1277
01:12:12.960 --> 01:12:15.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, just to just to let everybody know. So it's

1278
01:12:15.399 --> 01:12:19.920
<v Speaker 1>a teena again, very small sample size. Average ex velocity

1279
01:12:20.680 --> 01:12:23.640
<v Speaker 1>was ninety one point two miles an hour, ranks in

1280
01:12:23.840 --> 01:12:29.239
<v Speaker 1>the eightieth percentile. Heard it rates ninety percentile. Sprint speed

1281
01:12:29.359 --> 01:12:32.000
<v Speaker 1>rates seventy first percent of the other thing they struggles

1282
01:12:32.000 --> 01:12:35.399
<v Speaker 1>with just like Michael Garcia, he swings at everything, so.

1283
01:12:36.039 --> 01:12:38.119
<v Speaker 2>But he's also very he's also very young.

1284
01:12:38.399 --> 01:12:42.000
<v Speaker 1>He's very twenty three years old. So but there's and if.

1285
01:12:41.880 --> 01:12:44.600
<v Speaker 2>They don't bring anybody in, that means they're committing to

1286
01:12:44.720 --> 01:12:47.479
<v Speaker 2>him for the long term, and that provides a little

1287
01:12:47.479 --> 01:12:51.039
<v Speaker 2>bit of security, I think to the individual himself and

1288
01:12:51.439 --> 01:12:52.680
<v Speaker 2>for us in the fantasy game.

1289
01:12:53.119 --> 01:12:55.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, it's it's all up to him. It's I

1290
01:12:55.439 --> 01:12:57.520
<v Speaker 1>think if we'll know the kind of player he is

1291
01:12:57.640 --> 01:13:01.079
<v Speaker 1>by June first, and so will they Washington Nationals, and

1292
01:13:01.199 --> 01:13:03.680
<v Speaker 1>it's either going to work or it's not. But he

1293
01:13:03.800 --> 01:13:05.239
<v Speaker 1>walked a little bit more when he was in the

1294
01:13:05.279 --> 01:13:08.119
<v Speaker 1>minor leagues. But just so everybody knows and you know

1295
01:13:08.199 --> 01:13:11.439
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty four, eighteen home runs, fifteen stolen bases to

1296
01:13:11.560 --> 01:13:14.840
<v Speaker 1>eighty seven batting average with a twenty six percent strikeout

1297
01:13:14.880 --> 01:13:17.000
<v Speaker 1>right in a seven point six percent walk rate. It's

1298
01:13:17.000 --> 01:13:18.159
<v Speaker 1>a pretty good baseball player.

1299
01:13:18.960 --> 01:13:19.479
<v Speaker 2>Yes he is.

1300
01:13:20.720 --> 01:13:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Timmy, give me a couple of sleepers.

1301
01:13:25.119 --> 01:13:33.920
<v Speaker 2>A couple of sleepers. Connor Narby. Yeah, great, there's there's

1302
01:13:34.079 --> 01:13:41.079
<v Speaker 2>one I like going down a little bit further. Bret

1303
01:13:42.039 --> 01:13:43.319
<v Speaker 2>Red baby, baby.

1304
01:13:45.159 --> 01:13:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Really, that's interesting. We didn't talk about him. So is

1305
01:13:48.600 --> 01:13:49.920
<v Speaker 1>it going to be with the Mets though?

1306
01:13:52.359 --> 01:13:56.239
<v Speaker 2>H I would I would think so. They're looking. They're

1307
01:13:56.279 --> 01:13:58.920
<v Speaker 2>looking at giving him a pretty good audition, I think

1308
01:13:59.079 --> 01:14:03.199
<v Speaker 2>this year and it will. I think whatever happens this

1309
01:14:03.399 --> 01:14:08.680
<v Speaker 2>year will shape his future as a member of the Mets.

1310
01:14:09.680 --> 01:14:15.359
<v Speaker 2>And again, if you're looking at deeper leagues, hey, he's

1311
01:14:15.399 --> 01:14:17.520
<v Speaker 2>in contention for the third base job in New York.

1312
01:14:18.079 --> 01:14:20.000
<v Speaker 2>It's not like he didn't have a lot of potential

1313
01:14:20.119 --> 01:14:24.720
<v Speaker 2>or wasn't highly thought. It's thought of. So yeah, I

1314
01:14:26.399 --> 01:14:27.079
<v Speaker 2>started like him.

1315
01:14:28.119 --> 01:14:30.119
<v Speaker 1>Let's see third base is so they got him in.

1316
01:14:30.359 --> 01:14:33.520
<v Speaker 1>They roster resources that got him penciled in at third base.

1317
01:14:35.760 --> 01:14:36.800
<v Speaker 2>Who do they have in there?

1318
01:14:37.520 --> 01:14:38.159
<v Speaker 1>Brett Batty.

1319
01:14:38.800 --> 01:14:40.439
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, okay, sorry, Yeah, they.

1320
01:14:40.359 --> 01:14:42.359
<v Speaker 1>Got Viento's at first base. I mean, I guess if

1321
01:14:42.359 --> 01:14:46.359
<v Speaker 1>Pete Alanza resigns, then Viena's goes back to third base,

1322
01:14:46.439 --> 01:14:51.520
<v Speaker 1>and then it's probably Synaro to Brett Batty. But uh yeah,

1323
01:14:51.560 --> 01:14:55.479
<v Speaker 1>and in the infield they've got competing Lewis Angallicunya, who

1324
01:14:55.600 --> 01:14:58.680
<v Speaker 1>could you know take over for Brett Baddie as possibility.

1325
01:14:58.720 --> 01:15:03.840
<v Speaker 1>I think Baddie is alt got more impact potential, right, So,

1326
01:15:04.399 --> 01:15:06.760
<v Speaker 1>and then you know it's it's not all that deep

1327
01:15:07.640 --> 01:15:09.960
<v Speaker 1>at third base, it's probably one of those two players.

1328
01:15:10.600 --> 01:15:12.880
<v Speaker 2>Right. So one of the guys that I am going

1329
01:15:12.960 --> 01:15:16.640
<v Speaker 2>to be watching very very carefully this year because of

1330
01:15:16.720 --> 01:15:18.560
<v Speaker 2>his debut last year was Cam Smith.

1331
01:15:19.399 --> 01:15:20.800
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

1332
01:15:21.239 --> 01:15:25.319
<v Speaker 2>You know, I I don't think we're going to see

1333
01:15:25.359 --> 01:15:30.000
<v Speaker 2>him this year, but again, after that debut, there's there's

1334
01:15:30.039 --> 01:15:34.319
<v Speaker 2>a player that definitely has my attention moving forward.

1335
01:15:34.399 --> 01:15:37.039
<v Speaker 1>And Cam Smith got moved to Houston Astros just so

1336
01:15:37.119 --> 01:15:42.239
<v Speaker 1>everybody remembers. So now the probably the I still like

1337
01:15:42.319 --> 01:15:44.359
<v Speaker 1>Jacob Melton probably a little bit more, but Cam Smith

1338
01:15:44.479 --> 01:15:48.359
<v Speaker 1>is probably know probably a top prospect in that organization

1339
01:15:48.479 --> 01:15:52.279
<v Speaker 1>now and I'm going to destroy out Kobe Mayo. I

1340
01:15:52.359 --> 01:15:55.760
<v Speaker 1>don't know what happens, but at some point, I mean

1341
01:15:55.800 --> 01:15:57.760
<v Speaker 1>the he's got to be freed. I mean it's if

1342
01:15:57.920 --> 01:16:02.039
<v Speaker 1>if Jackson Holiday blows up, and because Jackson Holliday and

1343
01:16:02.119 --> 01:16:04.840
<v Speaker 1>who's at first base? They still got Ryan Montcastle, right,

1344
01:16:05.279 --> 01:16:07.640
<v Speaker 1>so he's playing first base. If there's no room, I mean,

1345
01:16:07.720 --> 01:16:10.319
<v Speaker 1>the Oriels are going to have to move Kobe Mayo

1346
01:16:10.399 --> 01:16:12.640
<v Speaker 1>at some point or he's going to start to lose value.

1347
01:16:12.920 --> 01:16:15.279
<v Speaker 1>So I think we're going to see a Kobe Mayor

1348
01:16:15.399 --> 01:16:18.600
<v Speaker 1>resolution either getting a chance in Baltimore at some point

1349
01:16:18.800 --> 01:16:19.239
<v Speaker 1>or moved.

1350
01:16:20.239 --> 01:16:23.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Maybe they'll trade to Miami for Edward Caberra.

1351
01:16:25.560 --> 01:16:27.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah that's right, another guy that goes to goes to

1352
01:16:27.920 --> 01:16:28.640
<v Speaker 1>the minor leagues.

1353
01:16:28.720 --> 01:16:33.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, exactly, Sorry a little snarky there?

1354
01:16:33.359 --> 01:16:35.920
<v Speaker 1>Many how many more years is Ryan mont Castle? It's

1355
01:16:35.960 --> 01:16:38.479
<v Speaker 1>only twenty eight years old. But seeing his last year

1356
01:16:38.520 --> 01:16:42.840
<v Speaker 1>of his contract, I can I can look that up

1357
01:16:42.960 --> 01:16:48.880
<v Speaker 1>very arbit tration contract one year, it's only six point

1358
01:16:48.920 --> 01:16:52.720
<v Speaker 1>eight million dollars, service time four point one two. So

1359
01:16:52.920 --> 01:16:55.199
<v Speaker 1>he's got he's got one more year. He's got two

1360
01:16:55.279 --> 01:17:00.560
<v Speaker 1>years left of team control. So yeah, I holding on

1361
01:17:00.720 --> 01:17:04.359
<v Speaker 1>to Kobe Mayo. When you got Sam Sam Bassalo up

1362
01:17:04.359 --> 01:17:08.640
<v Speaker 1>behind him potentially as a first basement or Kobe Mayo

1363
01:17:08.800 --> 01:17:11.800
<v Speaker 1>just might be a tweener for the for the Orioles

1364
01:17:11.840 --> 01:17:12.600
<v Speaker 1>and he gets moved.

1365
01:17:13.279 --> 01:17:17.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's it's entirely possible, and I would like to

1366
01:17:17.640 --> 01:17:19.840
<v Speaker 2>you know, I know Basella is very young, but at

1367
01:17:19.880 --> 01:17:21.800
<v Speaker 2>some point in time they got a decision to make there.

1368
01:17:22.479 --> 01:17:26.039
<v Speaker 1>M hm, what about what about the Padres and the

1369
01:17:26.199 --> 01:17:30.840
<v Speaker 1>Orioles hooking up for Dylan Cees. Move Kobe Mayo. That's

1370
01:17:30.960 --> 01:17:34.239
<v Speaker 1>Kobe Mayo takes over for third base going into the

1371
01:17:34.359 --> 01:17:38.520
<v Speaker 1>season and Dylan Cees becomes, you know, your number one

1372
01:17:38.640 --> 01:17:40.319
<v Speaker 1>two starter for Baltimore.

1373
01:17:41.439 --> 01:17:45.760
<v Speaker 2>Makes sense the Os need a pitcher. Yeah, yeah, yeah, no,

1374
01:17:45.960 --> 01:17:46.880
<v Speaker 2>that makes struggle sense.

1375
01:17:47.319 --> 01:17:49.239
<v Speaker 1>Dylan Sees might not be high on their list just

1376
01:17:49.279 --> 01:17:51.560
<v Speaker 1>because he walks too many guys, but that's just the

1377
01:17:51.640 --> 01:17:54.720
<v Speaker 1>way it is, all right. See what else? Uh, so

1378
01:17:54.880 --> 01:17:56.840
<v Speaker 1>give me a couple of sleepers and he give me

1379
01:17:56.920 --> 01:17:58.960
<v Speaker 1>a guy maybe too, that you're just going to avoid

1380
01:17:59.079 --> 01:18:00.479
<v Speaker 1>drafting at the top of the list.

1381
01:18:00.560 --> 01:18:04.359
<v Speaker 2>Here at the top of the list guys.

1382
01:18:04.119 --> 01:18:06.880
<v Speaker 1>That I Royce Lewis, I'm assuming is one of those.

1383
01:18:07.239 --> 01:18:11.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Royce Lewis is a definite uh, going down a

1384
01:18:11.840 --> 01:18:17.840
<v Speaker 2>little bit further. Jake Berger doesn't enthrow me at all. Yeah,

1385
01:18:17.880 --> 01:18:21.239
<v Speaker 2>he just doesn't. And the other guy that I am

1386
01:18:21.520 --> 01:18:24.960
<v Speaker 2>definitely one hundred percent staying away from his Heimer Candelario.

1387
01:18:25.840 --> 01:18:29.760
<v Speaker 2>Why so well, he's in Cincinnati. Okay, They've got so

1388
01:18:29.920 --> 01:18:36.199
<v Speaker 2>much strong young talent. You know, Candelaria is going to

1389
01:18:36.319 --> 01:18:39.640
<v Speaker 2>need four hundred and fifty plus at Batch to generate

1390
01:18:39.720 --> 01:18:42.920
<v Speaker 2>another twenty home run season. I think there's a good

1391
01:18:43.000 --> 01:18:45.640
<v Speaker 2>chance that he doesn't get to that level. I just

1392
01:18:45.720 --> 01:18:48.600
<v Speaker 2>don't want to, you know. You know, at some point

1393
01:18:48.600 --> 01:18:51.159
<v Speaker 2>in time, Strand's gonna have to enter into the pitcher,

1394
01:18:51.279 --> 01:18:55.800
<v Speaker 2>as is Marte, I would hope, and it's just crowded,

1395
01:18:55.920 --> 01:19:00.159
<v Speaker 2>and I think iimer Candelaria to generate that twenty Their

1396
01:19:00.199 --> 01:19:02.279
<v Speaker 2>twenty home run season is gonna need at Beats. I

1397
01:19:02.359 --> 01:19:04.239
<v Speaker 2>don't think he's gonna get it, so I'm not going

1398
01:19:04.279 --> 01:19:06.439
<v Speaker 2>anywhere near. The other guy that I won't touch is

1399
01:19:06.520 --> 01:19:10.000
<v Speaker 2>Christopher Morrell. Home run potential is fantastic. How much is

1400
01:19:10.000 --> 01:19:15.439
<v Speaker 2>he gonna play it? Yeah, No, it's just.

1401
01:19:16.640 --> 01:19:19.520
<v Speaker 1>Somebody one of our Patreon members wrote wrote me a

1402
01:19:19.640 --> 01:19:24.520
<v Speaker 1>note about the Tampa Bay Rays, I think, publicly saying

1403
01:19:24.560 --> 01:19:28.880
<v Speaker 1>that they were changing their approach to developmental and we're

1404
01:19:28.960 --> 01:19:33.159
<v Speaker 1>looking for more more guys with power and as opposed

1405
01:19:33.199 --> 01:19:36.560
<v Speaker 1>to plate discipline. So it's interesting. I need to follow

1406
01:19:36.680 --> 01:19:38.720
<v Speaker 1>up with that, you know, with that member to find

1407
01:19:38.760 --> 01:19:41.039
<v Speaker 1>out to dig a little bit more into it. That's

1408
01:19:41.079 --> 01:19:43.039
<v Speaker 1>definitely if you look at the profiles of the players

1409
01:19:43.079 --> 01:19:45.479
<v Speaker 1>and the guys that are acquiring, Yeah, they they want

1410
01:19:45.560 --> 01:19:48.199
<v Speaker 1>more of the junior cambon Areos and morels, the guys

1411
01:19:48.239 --> 01:19:50.720
<v Speaker 1>that got big time power and you don't care so

1412
01:19:50.840 --> 01:19:54.119
<v Speaker 1>much about getting on base. So it's pretty interesting philosophy

1413
01:19:54.199 --> 01:19:54.880
<v Speaker 1>change if true.

1414
01:19:55.800 --> 01:19:57.439
<v Speaker 2>Right, the other guy that I won't touch for the

1415
01:19:57.479 --> 01:20:00.920
<v Speaker 2>ten FO Bowls, Nolan Aaron Adam. Yeah, no, I'm not

1416
01:20:01.000 --> 01:20:03.399
<v Speaker 2>going to buy Nolan or you know, invest in Nolan

1417
01:20:03.479 --> 01:20:06.279
<v Speaker 2>Aaron not on in the fifteenth, fourteenth, fifteenth round.

1418
01:20:06.760 --> 01:20:10.239
<v Speaker 1>It's no just I think he's he's just there if

1419
01:20:10.279 --> 01:20:13.039
<v Speaker 1>you if you get caught out and just need some

1420
01:20:13.199 --> 01:20:15.680
<v Speaker 1>guy that's going to get you fifteen sixteen home runs

1421
01:20:15.760 --> 01:20:17.520
<v Speaker 1>and a decent batting average and that's it.

1422
01:20:18.720 --> 01:20:25.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, if i I'll look at moving match up Connor Norby.

1423
01:20:26.000 --> 01:20:26.199
<v Speaker 1>Sure.

1424
01:20:27.079 --> 01:20:31.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, speaking of other Ryan McMahon perfectly boring. I don't

1425
01:20:32.000 --> 01:20:35.680
<v Speaker 2>know I've no, I'll pass on Ryan McMahon. I've seen

1426
01:20:35.720 --> 01:20:37.960
<v Speaker 2>and I've seen enough of the best of McMahon and

1427
01:20:38.239 --> 01:20:39.479
<v Speaker 2>it's not good enough. Yeah.

1428
01:20:39.520 --> 01:20:41.560
<v Speaker 1>I thought he'd be better than what he turned out.

1429
01:20:41.600 --> 01:20:44.800
<v Speaker 1>He just he just never really developed the power. I mean,

1430
01:20:44.880 --> 01:20:48.560
<v Speaker 1>it's in Colorado. You should have more power than twenty pop.

1431
01:20:48.640 --> 01:20:50.319
<v Speaker 1>I just just baffling.

1432
01:20:50.640 --> 01:20:53.880
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, so you know, I I don't think there's

1433
01:20:53.880 --> 01:20:57.119
<v Speaker 2>any surprises with my stay away from list.

1434
01:20:57.399 --> 01:21:00.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah for sure. Well, so we run out time. Let's

1435
01:21:00.560 --> 01:21:02.600
<v Speaker 1>take a break and come back and wrap this puppy up.

1436
01:21:13.960 --> 01:21:17.000
<v Speaker 1>We usually take a break between the infield and the

1437
01:21:17.079 --> 01:21:19.479
<v Speaker 1>outfield because it's longer, So maybe Tim needs an extra

1438
01:21:19.520 --> 01:21:22.640
<v Speaker 1>week put the outfield together if we can finally squeeze

1439
01:21:22.680 --> 01:21:26.119
<v Speaker 1>in this fantasy questions of the Al West. But I'm

1440
01:21:26.119 --> 01:21:27.319
<v Speaker 1>not going to get to it today, Tim.

1441
01:21:28.479 --> 01:21:30.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I was gonna say, I get to use the

1442
01:21:30.640 --> 01:21:32.880
<v Speaker 2>control C and control V thing again.

1443
01:21:34.159 --> 01:21:38.199
<v Speaker 1>There you go. What are your final final thoughts on

1444
01:21:38.359 --> 01:21:40.720
<v Speaker 1>third base before we wrap it? Wrap it up?

1445
01:21:41.640 --> 01:21:43.840
<v Speaker 2>I think the thing that I find the most intriguing

1446
01:21:43.920 --> 01:21:48.399
<v Speaker 2>with third base this year the number of different ways

1447
01:21:48.920 --> 01:21:53.359
<v Speaker 2>and directions one can head. Okay, there's a pretty solid,

1448
01:21:54.079 --> 01:21:59.399
<v Speaker 2>solid group of power hitting third baseman. It tails off

1449
01:22:00.000 --> 01:22:03.079
<v Speaker 2>reasonably quick. But the thing that intrigues me, or that

1450
01:22:03.439 --> 01:22:08.000
<v Speaker 2>Michael Garcia is with the speed reniefel uh. You know,

1451
01:22:08.199 --> 01:22:11.199
<v Speaker 2>going further down the list and looking at Willie Castro

1452
01:22:12.119 --> 01:22:16.119
<v Speaker 2>Dylan Moore, you've got some third base eligible players that

1453
01:22:16.319 --> 01:22:18.640
<v Speaker 2>provide you something that you don't normally see a lot

1454
01:22:18.720 --> 01:22:22.680
<v Speaker 2>of a third base and the stolen bases. So I

1455
01:22:22.880 --> 01:22:27.680
<v Speaker 2>think you can realistically take a look at third base

1456
01:22:27.880 --> 01:22:31.199
<v Speaker 2>from any number of different positions and make it work.

1457
01:22:31.600 --> 01:22:34.399
<v Speaker 2>And I find that very fascinating and intriguing. I really do.

1458
01:22:35.760 --> 01:22:39.279
<v Speaker 1>I want to see how I handled h third base.

1459
01:22:39.279 --> 01:22:42.319
<v Speaker 1>I can't remember now, it's been several months since I

1460
01:22:42.439 --> 01:22:49.159
<v Speaker 1>wrote this at see starting pitching outfield third base can't drafts.

1461
01:22:49.479 --> 01:22:54.199
<v Speaker 1>I think I'm waiting. Yeah, yeah, I said, I suggested.

1462
01:22:54.279 --> 01:22:56.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm waiting a little. I'm kind of with Tim.

1463
01:22:57.560 --> 01:23:00.920
<v Speaker 2>Well, Hey, I'd love to and your camin Arrow on

1464
01:23:01.000 --> 01:23:05.720
<v Speaker 2>my team. But yeah, by the time draft day rules around, yeah,

1465
01:23:05.800 --> 01:23:10.439
<v Speaker 2>the price on them could be outrageous. You know, Manny

1466
01:23:10.520 --> 01:23:15.880
<v Speaker 2>Machado's perfectly boring candidate at third base. He just goes

1467
01:23:15.920 --> 01:23:18.960
<v Speaker 2>out and gets it done year after year. But again,

1468
01:23:19.319 --> 01:23:23.000
<v Speaker 2>it's all going to depend on your team building, how

1469
01:23:23.039 --> 01:23:26.560
<v Speaker 2>you want to construct your team, and there's a lot

1470
01:23:26.640 --> 01:23:29.159
<v Speaker 2>of options that are different that we don't normally see

1471
01:23:29.199 --> 01:23:31.279
<v Speaker 2>at third base this year. And that I said that

1472
01:23:31.399 --> 01:23:31.880
<v Speaker 2>intrauce me.

1473
01:23:32.359 --> 01:23:36.399
<v Speaker 1>My targets were drafting hold leagues were Jose Teenya, Matt Shaw,

1474
01:23:36.920 --> 01:23:38.319
<v Speaker 1>and Jase Young.

1475
01:23:40.039 --> 01:23:42.920
<v Speaker 2>And how many of them did you get? Do you remember?

1476
01:23:43.159 --> 01:23:45.680
<v Speaker 1>Uh? Definitely got TINYA. I don't think I got anybody else.

1477
01:23:46.760 --> 01:23:50.960
<v Speaker 1>I believe I got uh. So I here's here's my

1478
01:23:51.920 --> 01:23:56.560
<v Speaker 1>my target's mid bitpack of course, Michael Garcia, love, Matt Chapman, right,

1479
01:23:56.760 --> 01:23:59.760
<v Speaker 1>Alex Bregman, so, Alec Baum, so all the guys that

1480
01:23:59.800 --> 01:24:03.520
<v Speaker 1>you brought up, Joey Ortiz, Matt Vierling, Who'm a big

1481
01:24:03.600 --> 01:24:06.319
<v Speaker 1>fan of. So yeah, those are some of my targets

1482
01:24:06.439 --> 01:24:08.359
<v Speaker 1>that I put in there. So yeah, kind of in

1483
01:24:08.479 --> 01:24:09.439
<v Speaker 1>line with where you are.

1484
01:24:09.680 --> 01:24:14.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, Hey, I love the elite talent up top.

1485
01:24:15.119 --> 01:24:18.039
<v Speaker 2>But I think it depends on how you want to

1486
01:24:18.159 --> 01:24:23.479
<v Speaker 2>construct your team. And for me, I've been through a

1487
01:24:23.520 --> 01:24:27.119
<v Speaker 2>couple of drafts now and I went outfield early in

1488
01:24:27.319 --> 01:24:30.560
<v Speaker 2>one and I went outfield late in the other. I

1489
01:24:31.600 --> 01:24:33.399
<v Speaker 2>like one a lot more than the other. When I

1490
01:24:33.439 --> 01:24:36.720
<v Speaker 2>look at my final roster. Yeah, a lot more outfield.

1491
01:24:36.880 --> 01:24:39.319
<v Speaker 2>Is it gets ugly, real ugly.

1492
01:24:39.680 --> 01:24:42.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I wrote my first sentence here is you can't

1493
01:24:42.880 --> 01:24:46.640
<v Speaker 1>draft every position in the first three rounds. So it's

1494
01:24:46.680 --> 01:24:50.479
<v Speaker 1>like a truism, right, It's like want Jose Ramirez, I

1495
01:24:50.920 --> 01:24:53.199
<v Speaker 1>want one Soto, I want you know, it's like you

1496
01:24:53.279 --> 01:24:56.600
<v Speaker 1>can't have them all. So I guess when it's second round,

1497
01:24:56.720 --> 01:24:58.800
<v Speaker 1>a lot of those guys obviously aren't going to be there.

1498
01:24:58.920 --> 01:25:01.479
<v Speaker 1>The same happens, so so you have to do you

1499
01:25:01.600 --> 01:25:05.039
<v Speaker 1>have to pick a position late at some point you do.

1500
01:25:05.760 --> 01:25:10.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there's just so many positions available. Yeah, and trying

1501
01:25:10.359 --> 01:25:13.880
<v Speaker 2>to minimize the hurt when you don't have this, you know,

1502
01:25:14.039 --> 01:25:17.039
<v Speaker 2>for say, a strong traditional type of third basement or

1503
01:25:17.079 --> 01:25:22.239
<v Speaker 2>first basement. Yeah. Say, at the end of the day,

1504
01:25:22.319 --> 01:25:24.399
<v Speaker 2>the bottom line is what you have when you're finished

1505
01:25:24.560 --> 01:25:29.319
<v Speaker 2>with your twenty three active spots and your reserve rounds,

1506
01:25:29.680 --> 01:25:33.439
<v Speaker 2>and it's it's a total package. And again, I can't

1507
01:25:33.479 --> 01:25:38.760
<v Speaker 2>stress how important it is to look at team construction,

1508
01:25:40.199 --> 01:25:43.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, and and and build your team in the

1509
01:25:44.000 --> 01:25:47.279
<v Speaker 2>best possible manner that you can. And like you said,

1510
01:25:47.319 --> 01:25:48.960
<v Speaker 2>you're not going to get them all. You just have

1511
01:25:49.159 --> 01:25:54.079
<v Speaker 2>to pick and choose where it's advantageous for you personally

1512
01:25:54.640 --> 01:25:55.319
<v Speaker 2>with your build.

1513
01:25:57.239 --> 01:25:59.840
<v Speaker 1>All Right, somebody calling me from Atlanta, Georgia. I wonder

1514
01:26:00.079 --> 01:26:02.399
<v Speaker 1>that is Tim probably trying to sell me insurance products.

1515
01:26:04.840 --> 01:26:09.119
<v Speaker 2>No, I know exactly who it is. Used a new car, right, Yeah,

1516
01:26:09.880 --> 01:26:14.079
<v Speaker 2>how was your warranty? So? May I may?

1517
01:26:14.119 --> 01:26:18.600
<v Speaker 1>I mayo opine on that. Can I know Pine about

1518
01:26:18.600 --> 01:26:19.600
<v Speaker 1>the extended warranties?

1519
01:26:20.039 --> 01:26:21.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you may, I'm curious to hear this.

1520
01:26:21.960 --> 01:26:24.600
<v Speaker 1>So, so we bought the car. We paid cash for.

1521
01:26:24.720 --> 01:26:27.239
<v Speaker 1>First of all, it's impossible to buy a cheap car.

1522
01:26:27.800 --> 01:26:29.359
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how people do it. I mean, the

1523
01:26:29.439 --> 01:26:32.720
<v Speaker 1>cars are freaking expensive. So we paid, We paid cash

1524
01:26:32.760 --> 01:26:35.239
<v Speaker 1>for the car, and then they send me this list

1525
01:26:35.680 --> 01:26:38.560
<v Speaker 1>of all the add ons I could get. It was

1526
01:26:38.800 --> 01:26:42.479
<v Speaker 1>ten thousand dollars and ship I could Pine put on

1527
01:26:42.640 --> 01:26:45.720
<v Speaker 1>top of the car. I'm like, one of them was

1528
01:26:47.960 --> 01:26:49.800
<v Speaker 1>what I don't know if they called it something you

1529
01:26:49.920 --> 01:26:51.840
<v Speaker 1>put on the outside of the inside of the car

1530
01:26:52.479 --> 01:26:56.399
<v Speaker 1>that makes a ceramic something that costs like three grand

1531
01:26:56.520 --> 01:26:59.800
<v Speaker 1>that would make it like like perfectly shine for the

1532
01:27:00.279 --> 01:27:04.279
<v Speaker 1>five years you you know. I'm like, I don't need that.

1533
01:27:04.520 --> 01:27:07.279
<v Speaker 1>Can I go spend ten dollars for a car wash

1534
01:27:07.359 --> 01:27:08.359
<v Speaker 1>and have the same thing.

1535
01:27:08.600 --> 01:27:11.159
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's like extra wax, okay, go with the

1536
01:27:11.239 --> 01:27:15.760
<v Speaker 2>extra wax twelve bucks instead of Yeah, it's like fins

1537
01:27:16.039 --> 01:27:16.359
<v Speaker 2>and that.

1538
01:27:16.840 --> 01:27:19.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's what a ceramic finishes. I like, what why

1539
01:27:19.800 --> 01:27:22.239
<v Speaker 1>do I want this? Oh? But you know it's so

1540
01:27:22.399 --> 01:27:24.680
<v Speaker 1>your car looks perfect? Like, I don't care, it's so

1541
01:27:24.880 --> 01:27:28.720
<v Speaker 1>what a car. It's a car exactly.

1542
01:27:29.079 --> 01:27:31.520
<v Speaker 2>Ten minutes after you drive off the lot. It's worth

1543
01:27:31.720 --> 01:27:36.159
<v Speaker 2>X minus too much, and it just continues to depreciate

1544
01:27:36.279 --> 01:27:38.439
<v Speaker 2>over its lifetime and then you replace it again. Right.

1545
01:27:39.439 --> 01:27:43.079
<v Speaker 1>They wanted twenty five hundred dollars for the next five

1546
01:27:43.279 --> 01:27:46.640
<v Speaker 1>years in case I blow out tires that I could

1547
01:27:46.680 --> 01:27:49.840
<v Speaker 1>come back and get new tires. Like if you get

1548
01:27:49.880 --> 01:27:51.760
<v Speaker 1>a nail on the tire, you get to come back

1549
01:27:51.840 --> 01:27:54.479
<v Speaker 1>and they replace the tire for free. I'm like, well,

1550
01:27:54.520 --> 01:27:57.279
<v Speaker 1>how much does a tire cost? Three hundred dollars? I go, okay,

1551
01:27:57.880 --> 01:28:00.720
<v Speaker 1>So I got to blow out eight to nine tires

1552
01:28:01.000 --> 01:28:03.960
<v Speaker 1>in five years, I said, I said, what about if

1553
01:28:04.000 --> 01:28:06.199
<v Speaker 1>the tire wears it? Oh, they're not covered. I'm like,

1554
01:28:07.359 --> 01:28:10.479
<v Speaker 1>am I going to blow out eight tires in four years?

1555
01:28:10.560 --> 01:28:12.720
<v Speaker 1>I decided I wasn't.

1556
01:28:15.560 --> 01:28:20.600
<v Speaker 2>Exactly okay, in the next ten years for five years. Yeah, no,

1557
01:28:20.960 --> 01:28:21.800
<v Speaker 2>it's ridiculous.

1558
01:28:22.399 --> 01:28:22.600
<v Speaker 1>I know.

1559
01:28:22.760 --> 01:28:27.479
<v Speaker 2>I go into my mechanic and you know, then of

1560
01:28:27.520 --> 01:28:29.520
<v Speaker 2>the shop talk to the boys. I think I picked

1561
01:28:29.600 --> 01:28:32.560
<v Speaker 2>up a nail. Okay, let's see, we'll fix it. Oh

1562
01:28:32.640 --> 01:28:35.439
<v Speaker 2>that's thirty bucks. Yeah, it's all said and done. They

1563
01:28:35.479 --> 01:28:37.720
<v Speaker 2>pull a nail out for the patch in and away

1564
01:28:37.760 --> 01:28:38.600
<v Speaker 2>you go. Tires good.

1565
01:28:38.720 --> 01:28:41.279
<v Speaker 1>But even if they couldn't, Tim, you'd have to be

1566
01:28:41.399 --> 01:28:43.880
<v Speaker 1>in live in a construction site to run over that

1567
01:28:44.079 --> 01:28:46.600
<v Speaker 1>many nails to make that. So I said, I don't

1568
01:28:46.680 --> 01:28:48.880
<v Speaker 1>understand because well most of the guys said, well, look,

1569
01:28:48.960 --> 01:28:52.079
<v Speaker 1>most people finance the car and they just throw in

1570
01:28:52.199 --> 01:28:55.159
<v Speaker 1>these things, this part, so you pay another five dollars

1571
01:28:55.239 --> 01:28:57.640
<v Speaker 1>ten dollars a month for this and it all gets

1572
01:28:57.920 --> 01:28:59.920
<v Speaker 1>all gets lost in there. I'm like, but this is

1573
01:29:00.279 --> 01:29:04.079
<v Speaker 1>like total profit for the dealership. He goes, yes, like,

1574
01:29:04.279 --> 01:29:04.800
<v Speaker 1>that's why.

1575
01:29:05.199 --> 01:29:10.960
<v Speaker 2>That's why vehicle they have somebody in accounting spend lots

1576
01:29:11.000 --> 01:29:14.359
<v Speaker 2>of time with you selling you all these features before

1577
01:29:14.439 --> 01:29:17.680
<v Speaker 2>you come up with the final price. Okay, it's those

1578
01:29:17.760 --> 01:29:19.439
<v Speaker 2>add ons that make a huge difference.

1579
01:29:19.520 --> 01:29:22.079
<v Speaker 1>And I have to tell you, Timmy v by the car.

1580
01:29:22.279 --> 01:29:25.680
<v Speaker 1>There was no pressure at all me. Was there pressure

1581
01:29:25.760 --> 01:29:28.079
<v Speaker 1>on these add ons? Oh my word, I felt like,

1582
01:29:28.319 --> 01:29:31.239
<v Speaker 1>you know, I felt like I was making a horrible

1583
01:29:31.319 --> 01:29:34.840
<v Speaker 1>decision by not getting the ceramic finish, you know, like, oh,

1584
01:29:35.119 --> 01:29:37.760
<v Speaker 1>you're just you're You're making a huge mistake, mister Wilson.

1585
01:29:37.800 --> 01:29:41.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, if you no, I'm not never had this

1586
01:29:41.479 --> 01:29:42.039
<v Speaker 1>in my life.

1587
01:29:42.760 --> 01:29:47.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah until this year. How many winters have you gone

1588
01:29:47.840 --> 01:29:52.239
<v Speaker 2>through with a vehicle where you're driving through snow constantly? Yeah?

1589
01:29:52.960 --> 01:29:55.840
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, it doesn't even doesn't even really apply for

1590
01:29:55.960 --> 01:29:56.560
<v Speaker 2>the most part.

1591
01:29:56.800 --> 01:29:58.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And guess what. I go to the I go

1592

1613
01:31:03.119 --> 01:31:05.199
<v Speaker 1>suggested that not the other crack.

1614
01:31:06.199 --> 01:31:08.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'll pick up the oil changes and I'll pick

1615
01:31:08.720 --> 01:31:12.159
<v Speaker 2>up the services whatever. Yeah, give me a discount, yeah,

1616
01:31:12.199 --> 01:31:13.079
<v Speaker 2>or way we go, Yeah.

1617
01:31:13.159 --> 01:31:13.479
<v Speaker 1>Way we go.

1618
01:31:14.199 --> 01:31:14.880
<v Speaker 2>You're gonna use them?

1619
01:31:15.560 --> 01:31:18.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Well I do. I go get it serviced every year.

1620
01:31:18.319 --> 01:31:19.800
<v Speaker 1>And then people say it's dumb to go to the

1621
01:31:20.159 --> 01:31:22.239
<v Speaker 1>dealership to do it, but I'm I'm I don't know

1622
01:31:22.279 --> 01:31:24.800
<v Speaker 1>anything about cars. I mean, so I just go to

1623
01:31:24.920 --> 01:31:27.359
<v Speaker 1>the dealership and they fix everything for me, and I'm

1624
01:31:27.359 --> 01:31:30.520
<v Speaker 1>good with that. But that was my experience with all

1625
01:31:30.600 --> 01:31:32.960
<v Speaker 1>the add Onsoy what a what a racket?

1626
01:31:33.079 --> 01:31:37.199
<v Speaker 2>Man? Well, and between you and me, ten years from now,

1627
01:31:37.239 --> 01:31:39.920
<v Speaker 2>when you're trying to sell what vehicle, the fact that

1628
01:31:40.039 --> 01:31:43.199
<v Speaker 2>it's got ceramic finish on it is not going to

1629
01:31:43.720 --> 01:31:45.520
<v Speaker 2>sway me to up my offer.

1630
01:31:45.640 --> 01:31:48.399
<v Speaker 1>Rouse at Well, here's the deal. So we ran this

1631
01:31:48.560 --> 01:31:50.479
<v Speaker 1>car into the ground. To me, it had one hundred

1632
01:31:50.520 --> 01:31:53.720
<v Speaker 1>thousand miles on it, It's eleven years old. It still

1633
01:31:53.840 --> 01:31:56.640
<v Speaker 1>works perfectly, and you know it needed new tires and

1634
01:31:56.720 --> 01:32:00.359
<v Speaker 1>new bushings. And so I went out to Kelly Blue

1635
01:32:00.399 --> 01:32:03.359
<v Speaker 1>Book and I think we spent sixty grand for the

1636
01:32:03.439 --> 01:32:06.439
<v Speaker 1>buy the car. Ten years it was worth four thousand dollars.

1637
01:32:06.960 --> 01:32:15.439
<v Speaker 1>And I'm like like like like what exactly? So I

1638
01:32:15.520 --> 01:32:18.239
<v Speaker 1>mean these cars they're not worth anything. And it's just

1639
01:32:18.399 --> 01:32:21.039
<v Speaker 1>like you know, you go in and you spend fifty

1640
01:32:21.119 --> 01:32:24.399
<v Speaker 1>sixty thousand dollars, which is totally what cars cost now,

1641
01:32:24.800 --> 01:32:28.199
<v Speaker 1>and and ten years later they're worth ten percent of that.

1642
01:32:28.359 --> 01:32:30.239
<v Speaker 1>I mean, like, why am I? Why do I care

1643
01:32:30.279 --> 01:32:33.880
<v Speaker 1>about the finish on my car? I didn't get it.

1644
01:32:34.159 --> 01:32:34.920
<v Speaker 1>I just didn't get it.

1645
01:32:35.199 --> 01:32:39.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, vehicle's the worst investment you'll ever make. I know.

1646
01:32:41.239 --> 01:32:43.920
<v Speaker 2>So anyway, that's that's It's just the way it is,

1647
01:32:44.039 --> 01:32:45.439
<v Speaker 2>but you got you gotta have one.

1648
01:32:45.960 --> 01:32:49.039
<v Speaker 1>That's there's my opining. So do what you want when

1649
01:32:49.079 --> 01:32:51.479
<v Speaker 1>you buy a car. If I buy, if I come

1650
01:32:51.520 --> 01:32:53.439
<v Speaker 1>to your dealership and I buy a new car, it's

1651
01:32:53.520 --> 01:32:56.720
<v Speaker 1>not going to have the ceramic I never heard that

1652
01:32:56.920 --> 01:33:02.439
<v Speaker 1>word before. Ceramic coding US used to be rust undercoding.

1653
01:33:02.520 --> 01:33:04.039
<v Speaker 1>That was the big thing people used to try to

1654
01:33:04.119 --> 01:33:07.239
<v Speaker 1>sell you on. Is rust undercoding That that wasn't inclusive,

1655
01:33:07.359 --> 01:33:08.600
<v Speaker 1>something called ceramic now.

1656
01:33:09.159 --> 01:33:11.359
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, up here, it makes sense to have your

1657
01:33:11.439 --> 01:33:13.760
<v Speaker 2>vehicle undercoted because we use so much salt on the

1658
01:33:13.880 --> 01:33:16.520
<v Speaker 2>roads in the winter and you're dealing with lots of snow,

1659
01:33:16.760 --> 01:33:21.560
<v Speaker 2>slush and everything else. Undercoding makes makes sense. But yeah,

1660
01:33:21.840 --> 01:33:25.239
<v Speaker 2>no ceramic. No, not for this guy.

1661
01:33:25.760 --> 01:33:27.840
<v Speaker 1>Not for this guy either. Tell me it's a wrap,

1662
01:33:27.920 --> 01:33:30.399
<v Speaker 1>my friend. Have a good week. We will. Are we

1663
01:33:30.479 --> 01:33:34.279
<v Speaker 1>doing the prospects later? This next week? Is Tuesday?

1664
01:33:34.880 --> 01:33:36.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think we're looking at Tuesday.

1665
01:33:36.279 --> 01:33:40.479
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Tuesday at Yeah it sounds good. Might have to

1666
01:33:40.520 --> 01:33:42.880
<v Speaker 1>do it a little later on Tuesday, but yeah, Tuesday,

1667
01:33:43.000 --> 01:33:43.880
<v Speaker 1>Tuesday works for me.

1668
01:33:44.439 --> 01:33:46.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and what what are we covering Tuesday? Just so

1669
01:33:46.560 --> 01:33:47.800
<v Speaker 2>I do the right ones this time?

1670
01:33:47.960 --> 01:33:52.520
<v Speaker 1>I think we're the last one the National League West. Okay,

1671
01:33:52.600 --> 01:33:56.720
<v Speaker 1>that's right, tho, No, No Al West, Ale West Al

1672
01:33:56.840 --> 01:33:58.039
<v Speaker 1>West Okay.

1673
01:33:59.039 --> 01:34:01.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there's been a gap up in between there and

1674
01:34:02.560 --> 01:34:04.239
<v Speaker 2>is good, but the recall sort of sucks.

1675
01:34:04.279 --> 01:34:08.079
<v Speaker 1>American Al West it is. So until then, Timmy, be

1676

01:34:09.119 --> 01:34:11.399
