<v Speaker 1>ten with Tim. It is a Take ten with Rich

5
00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:34.479
<v Speaker 1>today because Tim and I are going to be talking

6
00:00:34.520 --> 00:00:38.079
<v Speaker 1>about my Top five hundred that just dropped yesterday, the

7
00:00:38.200 --> 00:00:41.520
<v Speaker 1>Top five hundred Prospects and Baseball actually four ninety nine.

8
00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:44.359
<v Speaker 1>Tim and I had one duplicated, so I had to

9
00:00:44.359 --> 00:00:47.560
<v Speaker 1>do a quick little flipper roo. But we're back up

10
00:00:47.560 --> 00:00:51.600
<v Speaker 1>to five hundred, so it is done, my friend, So

11
00:00:52.640 --> 00:00:54.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm looking forward to the discussion.

12
00:00:55.320 --> 00:00:59.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, as am I I was just simply flat out

13
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:04.760
<v Speaker 2>were whelmed. Okay when I saw that list, and yeah,

14
00:01:04.799 --> 00:01:07.280
<v Speaker 2>it's not take ten, it's take five hundred with Rich.

15
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:09.680
<v Speaker 2>We're not going through all of them, but that sort

16
00:01:09.680 --> 00:01:12.959
<v Speaker 2>of boy was it absolutely amazes me when I see

17
00:01:13.040 --> 00:01:17.599
<v Speaker 2>the amount of work that has to go into this project. Rich,

18
00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:20.480
<v Speaker 2>it's like I said, overwhelming, It really is.

19
00:01:21.239 --> 00:01:24.560
<v Speaker 1>It felt overwhelming to do it this time, because I

20
00:01:24.599 --> 00:01:28.000
<v Speaker 1>think I shared last time we spoke, I had typically

21
00:01:28.159 --> 00:01:31.560
<v Speaker 1>the first cut of my five hundred, usually about first

22
00:01:31.599 --> 00:01:34.760
<v Speaker 1>first of June, and I was about to do it

23
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:38.239
<v Speaker 1>I had maybe two hundred two hundred and ten kind

24
00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:42.439
<v Speaker 1>of profiles written up, and as I did last year,

25
00:01:42.760 --> 00:01:44.840
<v Speaker 1>the first hundred to one hundred and fifty were pretty good.

26
00:01:44.840 --> 00:01:48.359
<v Speaker 1>I felt good about that, and then it just became floaters, guys.

27
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:50.840
<v Speaker 1>I had a chance to take a look at and

28
00:01:51.079 --> 00:01:54.640
<v Speaker 1>I the bottom two fifty was just suspect, and I

29
00:01:54.799 --> 00:01:57.560
<v Speaker 1>just wasn't happy with that. As we you and I talked,

30
00:01:57.799 --> 00:02:01.359
<v Speaker 1>I knew what was required, I was unwilling to do it,

31
00:02:01.400 --> 00:02:03.200
<v Speaker 1>and then I just finally said, I have to do

32
00:02:03.239 --> 00:02:07.519
<v Speaker 1>this because that's my job. So so I got my

33
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:09.919
<v Speaker 1>big boy pants up, I rolled up my sleeves, and

34
00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:13.879
<v Speaker 1>there you go. I dug into it and I did

35
00:02:14.639 --> 00:02:18.400
<v Speaker 1>probably in a process that takes me four months at

36
00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:21.479
<v Speaker 1>the fall, I did it in two weeks. Again, it

37
00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:24.960
<v Speaker 1>was it was probably sixty to seventy percent of the work,

38
00:02:25.400 --> 00:02:28.479
<v Speaker 1>but that was a lot for two weeks. And as

39
00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:31.280
<v Speaker 1>I was telling ten last night, I could not have

40
00:02:31.360 --> 00:02:35.120
<v Speaker 1>done it without kind of systems in place, the AI

41
00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:39.000
<v Speaker 1>assistant helping me to edit things and you know, put

42
00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:42.759
<v Speaker 1>it into grammatically oriented forms, you know, all the write

43
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:45.599
<v Speaker 1>ups and things like that, and it's you know, I

44
00:02:45.879 --> 00:02:48.919
<v Speaker 1>learned in my long career as a technologist. Once you

45
00:02:48.919 --> 00:02:51.919
<v Speaker 1>have a technology in place, then you can start to

46
00:02:51.919 --> 00:02:54.759
<v Speaker 1>really pump out lots of volume of stuff. And it

47
00:02:55.120 --> 00:02:57.159
<v Speaker 1>proved it. I was able to crank out a lot

48
00:02:57.199 --> 00:02:58.759
<v Speaker 1>of stuff in two weeks.

49
00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:02.759
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, you've got five hundred players that you've profiled,

50
00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:05.800
<v Speaker 2>and each and every single one of them, if I'm

51
00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:10.560
<v Speaker 2>not mistake, and it has an ARETI yeah, it's only one.

52
00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:12.400
<v Speaker 2>It's a he know, it's only a short area for

53
00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:15.199
<v Speaker 2>the most part, it's you know, but it's one sentence

54
00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:16.439
<v Speaker 2>describes what's going on.

55
00:03:16.599 --> 00:03:20.520
<v Speaker 1>Oh if my friend, my friend, yes, my friend, Yes.

56
00:03:20.680 --> 00:03:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Three and fifty to three hundred and seventy five of

57
00:03:23.240 --> 00:03:25.800
<v Speaker 1>those have full two hundred to three hundred world write

58
00:03:25.840 --> 00:03:30.280
<v Speaker 1>ups behind them. So behind them. Yeah, so that's the

59
00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:33.400
<v Speaker 1>other one hundred and you know whatever, five hundred minus

60
00:03:33.400 --> 00:03:36.039
<v Speaker 1>three fifty, one fifty or just short arrais a lot

61
00:03:36.120 --> 00:03:39.400
<v Speaker 1>of those are guys that were hurt. I mean, what

62
00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:42.080
<v Speaker 1>what am I going to write about Sebastian Walcott. He's

63
00:03:42.120 --> 00:03:45.159
<v Speaker 1>been hurt the entire season, So I just write he's hurt.

64
00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:47.960
<v Speaker 2>Go back hurt. Yeah, look at last year.

65
00:03:48.039 --> 00:03:48.680
<v Speaker 1>So I don't know.

66
00:03:49.159 --> 00:03:53.199
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, so I I lost year I touched.

67
00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:55.120
<v Speaker 1>Well, apparently it's coming back in a couple of weeks.

68
00:03:55.120 --> 00:03:57.800
<v Speaker 1>That's what's interesting. If you write, bring my little, my

69
00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:01.039
<v Speaker 1>little narrative in there, yes so, but so that's that's

70
00:04:01.039 --> 00:04:02.879
<v Speaker 1>how it works. So if you figure there was only

71
00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:06.280
<v Speaker 1>about one hundred narratives I did not write, and all

72
00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:09.840
<v Speaker 1>of our Patreon members have seen those write ups, you know,

73
00:04:09.879 --> 00:04:12.159
<v Speaker 1>at one point or another, updated all of them, and

74
00:04:12.199 --> 00:04:14.599
<v Speaker 1>they'll be coming out in the next few weeks as

75
00:04:14.639 --> 00:04:16.879
<v Speaker 1>I write about more players. But it was it was

76
00:04:17.639 --> 00:04:20.120
<v Speaker 1>once you get it, get going, I mean, you just

77
00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:23.160
<v Speaker 1>it's more of a you just have to throw yourself

78
00:04:23.199 --> 00:04:25.480
<v Speaker 1>into it and just get it done. I mean that's

79
00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:27.639
<v Speaker 1>just the bottom line. Get it done.

80
00:04:28.279 --> 00:04:30.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah, I got to tell you the first thing

81
00:04:30.439 --> 00:04:34.560
<v Speaker 2>that leapt out at me. Okay, because again I've I've

82
00:04:34.600 --> 00:04:36.439
<v Speaker 2>got the full Gride sitting in front of me, and

83
00:04:36.519 --> 00:04:40.360
<v Speaker 2>it's very pretty and hey, nothing like a good highlighter

84
00:04:40.360 --> 00:04:44.199
<v Speaker 2>to make a guy's date. Okay, but the first but

85
00:04:44.279 --> 00:04:48.160
<v Speaker 2>the first thing I look for, Okay, yeah, you get

86
00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:51.480
<v Speaker 2>your ranks one, two, three, five, six, seven, eight, yea, yeah, yeah, yeah,

87
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:55.319
<v Speaker 2>on it goes. But the thing that I want to

88
00:04:55.360 --> 00:04:57.199
<v Speaker 2>look at first, and I would imagine a lot of

89
00:04:57.199 --> 00:04:59.959
<v Speaker 2>our listeners are cut from that same sort of claw

90
00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:06.360
<v Speaker 2>is the up down in the February rank. And the

91
00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:09.839
<v Speaker 2>first thing that leapt out at me in a massively

92
00:05:10.040 --> 00:05:19.160
<v Speaker 2>huge way was that, Uh, comparing February today, I think

93
00:05:19.160 --> 00:05:21.360
<v Speaker 2>there might be ten, eight to ten players that were

94
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:25.040
<v Speaker 2>top twenty five in February. They've all disappeared.

95
00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:30.240
<v Speaker 1>See there you go. You know it's fifty three guys.

96
00:05:30.759 --> 00:05:35.879
<v Speaker 1>There's fifty three guys that have graduated off of this list.

97
00:05:36.160 --> 00:05:40.360
<v Speaker 1>Fifty three, so ten percent graduated off off the list.

98
00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:40.879
<v Speaker 2>Uh.

99
00:05:40.920 --> 00:05:43.439
<v Speaker 1>And then if you do it in order in three months,

100
00:05:43.920 --> 00:05:46.639
<v Speaker 1>In three months, one two, three, four, five five, top

101
00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:51.839
<v Speaker 1>ten guys, what do you want? Top hundred guys are

102
00:05:54.360 --> 00:06:01.399
<v Speaker 1>twelve fifteen, one two, three, four, five, twenty five top

103
00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:04.199
<v Speaker 1>hundred guys. So a quarter of the top one hundred

104
00:06:04.240 --> 00:06:07.680
<v Speaker 1>guys have have graduated off of this list, which is

105
00:06:07.759 --> 00:06:09.319
<v Speaker 1>kind of one of the thing if I can expand

106
00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:10.680
<v Speaker 1>upon that a little bit.

107
00:06:10.759 --> 00:06:12.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's why I wanted to lead into this and

108
00:06:12.839 --> 00:06:17.079
<v Speaker 2>just turn it over to you and let you fire away.

109
00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:18.879
<v Speaker 2>I know. The one thing that's said to me right

110
00:06:18.920 --> 00:06:21.480
<v Speaker 2>away is, yeah, the game's getting younger, right.

111
00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:26.120
<v Speaker 1>It's getting younger, and it made this process pretty challenging

112
00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:29.959
<v Speaker 1>because quite frankly, there are guys in this top one hundred,

113
00:06:30.079 --> 00:06:32.800
<v Speaker 1>if you will not to mention Top five hundred, that

114
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:35.279
<v Speaker 1>you know, you look at and you have to wrap

115
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:37.800
<v Speaker 1>your brain around going, that's not really a top one

116
00:06:37.879 --> 00:06:41.240
<v Speaker 1>hundred guy. That's like a top one fifty kind of guy.

117
00:06:41.319 --> 00:06:45.800
<v Speaker 1>But yet it's so shallow that the guys have kind

118
00:06:45.800 --> 00:06:47.879
<v Speaker 1>of moved up, and I think we need to have

119
00:06:47.920 --> 00:06:51.160
<v Speaker 1>that in context. Now. In four days, that's all going

120
00:06:51.240 --> 00:06:53.480
<v Speaker 1>to change because we're finally going to have new blood

121
00:06:53.480 --> 00:06:56.480
<v Speaker 1>coming in through the draft that happens over the weekend,

122
00:06:56.560 --> 00:07:00.279
<v Speaker 1>and then quite frankly, we are desperate for some new

123
00:07:00.279 --> 00:07:02.600
<v Speaker 1>blood to me because it has gotten thin and it

124
00:07:02.600 --> 00:07:05.920
<v Speaker 1>has gotten terribly young. There are some seventeen year olds

125
00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:09.560
<v Speaker 1>in the top one hundred, and I just, you know,

126
00:07:09.720 --> 00:07:12.480
<v Speaker 1>you just don't do that because there's so much volatility

127
00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:15.439
<v Speaker 1>in those guys. But it's just the way it's just

128
00:07:15.519 --> 00:07:19.240
<v Speaker 1>the way it's happening. The yeah, it's getting it's getting younger.

129
00:07:19.279 --> 00:07:22.439
<v Speaker 1>Those guys are getting promoted and graduated, and you know,

130
00:07:22.600 --> 00:07:25.360
<v Speaker 1>now you've got seventeen eighteen year old guys littered through

131
00:07:25.360 --> 00:07:26.240
<v Speaker 1>your top one hundred.

132
00:07:27.279 --> 00:07:30.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, yeah, Seth seth ornand is at number eight.

133
00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:34.040
<v Speaker 2>A prime example, he moved up sixty s bucks. Theo

134
00:07:34.120 --> 00:07:37.959
<v Speaker 2>Gillen moved up thirty one slots in three months, Ryan

135
00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:42.399
<v Speaker 2>Sloan forty one, Eli Will it's fifty one. You know

136
00:07:42.680 --> 00:07:49.199
<v Speaker 2>your top one hundred. You know Anthony I Aansen with Boston,

137
00:07:49.240 --> 00:07:52.759
<v Speaker 2>He's moved up seventy seventy five slots, sixty nine slots

138
00:07:52.759 --> 00:08:00.399
<v Speaker 2>for Sirota. Like, we're seeing people moving up this list

139
00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:03.040
<v Speaker 2>at an incredible pace, aren't we. What would it be

140
00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:07.560
<v Speaker 2>common to see a guy like Kendrick Churio two years

141
00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:12.519
<v Speaker 2>ago to be ranked top thirty five and move up

142
00:08:12.560 --> 00:08:16.360
<v Speaker 2>one hundred and forty three slots. It just it seems

143
00:08:16.399 --> 00:08:19.199
<v Speaker 2>wild to me when I start looking at the number

144
00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:22.800
<v Speaker 2>of young players that are just exploding onto the scene.

145
00:08:23.600 --> 00:08:26.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's interesting because a lot of guys that you mentioned,

146
00:08:26.439 --> 00:08:29.920
<v Speaker 1>if I'm very curious, right, Seth Hernandez, As you recall

147
00:08:30.399 --> 00:08:34.559
<v Speaker 1>back in the spring, he was my fourth ranked guy

148
00:08:34.720 --> 00:08:37.440
<v Speaker 1>for the first year player draft, and I panicked, Timmy,

149
00:08:37.480 --> 00:08:41.200
<v Speaker 1>I just said, I can't have a high school picture

150
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:43.559
<v Speaker 1>going that early. I mean I had to go before Ami.

151
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:46.399
<v Speaker 1>I mean I can't do that, so I dropped him

152
00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:48.879
<v Speaker 1>at the last minute. Turned out to be a mistake.

153
00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:52.039
<v Speaker 1>So this is that's really correction. Maybe he should have

154
00:08:52.120 --> 00:08:54.639
<v Speaker 1>been twenty he moved up to seven. That was a

155
00:08:55.120 --> 00:08:58.360
<v Speaker 1>I was not balled into Eli Willitts. I was thinking

156
00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:00.559
<v Speaker 1>he'd be more like a spaf of guy's a lot

157
00:09:00.600 --> 00:09:03.320
<v Speaker 1>stronger than his father. So that's a bit of a

158
00:09:03.360 --> 00:09:06.759
<v Speaker 1>correction of a guy that probably should have been higher.

159
00:09:06.960 --> 00:09:10.120
<v Speaker 1>Ryan Sloan is a monster. I mean, I've got him

160
00:09:10.159 --> 00:09:13.000
<v Speaker 1>higher than Kate Anderson just by one slot. But that

161
00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:16.039
<v Speaker 1>guy's has got top of the rotation stuff. He hasn't

162
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:17.960
<v Speaker 1>had as good a control, so the forty one is

163
00:09:17.960 --> 00:09:21.480
<v Speaker 1>probably legitimate and he's really improved that much. Well, I

164
00:09:21.519 --> 00:09:24.320
<v Speaker 1>forgot the other guy that you mentioned as well, Oh oh,

165
00:09:24.759 --> 00:09:27.519
<v Speaker 1>the right handed from Boston up seventy five. I had

166
00:09:27.559 --> 00:09:29.879
<v Speaker 1>him as a top one hundred guy, but he just

167
00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:32.919
<v Speaker 1>exploded onto the scene. So it's kind of a combination

168
00:09:33.559 --> 00:09:37.879
<v Speaker 1>of guys that I maybe had ranked wrong coming into

169
00:09:37.879 --> 00:09:40.240
<v Speaker 1>the season, just should have been more bullish and not.

170
00:09:40.440 --> 00:09:43.399
<v Speaker 1>And then some guys that have just blown up. I

171
00:09:43.399 --> 00:09:46.240
<v Speaker 1>think guys that have just moved up because others have

172
00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:48.639
<v Speaker 1>moved out well.

173
00:09:48.519 --> 00:09:51.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I have a few. There's a few that have

174
00:09:51.600 --> 00:09:53.519
<v Speaker 2>headed in the opposite direction as well.

175
00:09:54.039 --> 00:09:56.600
<v Speaker 1>Oh, a lot of those guys. I'm also going to

176
00:09:56.600 --> 00:10:00.639
<v Speaker 1>point you to number twenty eight, Mike Sarota. Mike's has

177
00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:04.399
<v Speaker 1>got on base seventy two games in a row. One

178
00:10:04.399 --> 00:10:07.759
<v Speaker 1>more game and he will tie the minor league record

179
00:10:08.600 --> 00:10:12.279
<v Speaker 1>Minor league record for getting on base in a row.

180
00:10:12.320 --> 00:10:16.159
<v Speaker 1>So that's the kind of season he is having. Yet again,

181
00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:20.399
<v Speaker 1>another Dodgers outfielder. And look at this, there are three

182
00:10:20.519 --> 00:10:23.559
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers outfielder if I'm not mistaken in the top twenty five. Well,

183
00:10:23.600 --> 00:10:26.480
<v Speaker 1>I think Serota might be twenty eight. That's crazy, by

184
00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:26.960
<v Speaker 1>the right.

185
00:10:27.960 --> 00:10:32.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, that is totally Yeah, there might even before

186
00:10:32.320 --> 00:10:35.120
<v Speaker 2>you got Hope. Is there another Dodger ahead of Hope,

187
00:10:35.200 --> 00:10:39.799
<v Speaker 2>I again, yeah.

188
00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:44.639
<v Speaker 1>Jose Depoula. So it's Hosey, Apollo, Zire Hope, and Sioder

189
00:10:44.679 --> 00:10:48.159
<v Speaker 1>to the three top outfielders, and Dabbling is not that

190
00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:48.879
<v Speaker 1>far behind.

191
00:10:49.919 --> 00:10:57.759
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, and that's insane in any other organization. Some

192
00:10:57.840 --> 00:11:00.279
<v Speaker 2>of those guys that already be up ye to.

193
00:11:00.279 --> 00:11:03.480
<v Speaker 1>Paul Is at three, Zire Hope's at twenty, at Duardo

194
00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:07.039
<v Speaker 1>Quintero's at twenty four, not had as good of a season.

195
00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:11.519
<v Speaker 1>Sarrodo's at twenty eight, Charles Davelin's at thirty seven, James

196
00:11:11.559 --> 00:11:15.799
<v Speaker 1>Tibbs at forty two. They're all outfielders, all top fifty

197
00:11:15.840 --> 00:11:17.559
<v Speaker 1>guys from one organization.

198
00:11:18.159 --> 00:11:21.679
<v Speaker 2>That's just the guy's a strong oatfield already.

199
00:11:22.399 --> 00:11:26.600
<v Speaker 1>That's right. So my question to you is, because I

200
00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:28.200
<v Speaker 1>actually wrote about one of them that I think it

201
00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:31.159
<v Speaker 1>was Ay your Hope, Like, he seems like the most

202
00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:34.679
<v Speaker 1>logical guy to move. He's the most explosive, but he's

203
00:11:34.720 --> 00:11:37.639
<v Speaker 1>also the most volatile. I mean, they got to move

204
00:11:38.200 --> 00:11:40.279
<v Speaker 1>some of these guys, at least one of these guys,

205
00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:43.320
<v Speaker 1>to bring in some help here at the deadline, to

206
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:45.840
<v Speaker 1>bring in a trek school ble. I mean, which one

207
00:11:45.840 --> 00:11:47.919
<v Speaker 1>of these guys goes? In your opinion? What do you think?

208
00:11:49.480 --> 00:11:54.840
<v Speaker 2>I like the Hope call because of the potential upside. Okay,

209
00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:58.440
<v Speaker 2>it's off the charts. They're not gonna move. They're not

210
00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:02.679
<v Speaker 2>gonna move to Paula. Uh I could I could see

211
00:12:02.919 --> 00:12:05.879
<v Speaker 2>Hope or TIBs as being auctions.

212
00:12:06.320 --> 00:12:09.399
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, can you can you make Mike Saroto seven? I

213
00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:13.159
<v Speaker 1>mean that kind of on base skill, he might Yeah,

214
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:15.919
<v Speaker 1>you get twenty eight. I mean that I was got

215
00:12:16.200 --> 00:12:17.120
<v Speaker 1>serious stuff.

216
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:21.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, how do you give up on that? I don't.

217
00:12:21.559 --> 00:12:24.440
<v Speaker 2>The Dodgers. Yeah, the Dodgers don't anyway, you know what

218
00:12:24.519 --> 00:12:27.080
<v Speaker 2>I mean, They'll move some of those oatfielders. But if

219
00:12:27.120 --> 00:12:29.279
<v Speaker 2>I had to bet, I would say TIBs and Hope.

220
00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:34.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and and and again. The fantasy standpoint. Fantasy standpoint, Hope,

221
00:12:34.639 --> 00:12:36.799
<v Speaker 1>Hope has got the highest upside. But if you're the

222
00:12:36.879 --> 00:12:40.200
<v Speaker 1>Dodger and you're Dodgers and you're looking at he still

223
00:12:40.279 --> 00:12:43.919
<v Speaker 1>might hit two forty to fifty because his all of

224
00:12:43.960 --> 00:12:47.279
<v Speaker 1>those guys, his hit tool is the most underdeveloped. That

225
00:12:47.440 --> 00:12:50.159
<v Speaker 1>seems the most logical guy to move, even though you

226
00:12:50.200 --> 00:12:51.600
<v Speaker 1>look at him and go, oh my gosh, that's the

227
00:12:51.600 --> 00:12:54.279
<v Speaker 1>best fantasy player. Maybe not for the Dodgers. Maybe they

228
00:12:54.279 --> 00:12:58.240
<v Speaker 1>don't care. And Tibbs is is just a they got

229
00:12:58.279 --> 00:12:59.240
<v Speaker 1>him for Dustin May.

230
00:13:00.879 --> 00:13:07.159
<v Speaker 2>Come on, yeah, exactly. Whatever they they flipped TIBs for,

231
00:13:08.159 --> 00:13:10.240
<v Speaker 2>it has to be a plus, you know what I mean.

232
00:13:10.279 --> 00:13:13.200
<v Speaker 2>It's gotta be right when you look at the cost

233
00:13:13.240 --> 00:13:18.200
<v Speaker 2>of acquisition. It was, yeah, Justin May, who they'd given

234
00:13:18.279 --> 00:13:20.879
<v Speaker 2>up on because of the health issues. Yeah.

235
00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:23.080
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, by the way, when he went to Boston,

236
00:13:23.080 --> 00:13:27.919
<v Speaker 1>he was terrible. Yeah, so's he's recovered a little bit.

237
00:13:27.960 --> 00:13:30.720
<v Speaker 1>He's shown flashes here this year, but being the guy

238
00:13:30.759 --> 00:13:32.039
<v Speaker 1>in the PA, but I mean he's still's got a

239
00:13:32.159 --> 00:13:34.399
<v Speaker 1>four to eighty ear a or something like that. It's

240
00:13:34.399 --> 00:13:36.919
<v Speaker 1>not that good. And they got James Tibbs, who was

241
00:13:37.320 --> 00:13:39.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, moved a couple of times and all of

242
00:13:39.559 --> 00:13:42.440
<v Speaker 1>a sudden goes to the Dodgers. Hey, put your hands

243
00:13:42.440 --> 00:13:44.840
<v Speaker 1>this way, do a little bit of that. Here's our

244
00:13:44.879 --> 00:13:49.679
<v Speaker 1>analytics department and yeah, top top fifty prospect.

245
00:13:50.399 --> 00:13:54.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah, from judge to stud pretty quick, I would say, right.

246
00:13:55.039 --> 00:13:58.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, totally. So it's I mean, the Dodgers are amazing.

247
00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:00.840
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, we've talked about this a little bit last

248
00:14:00.919 --> 00:14:05.799
<v Speaker 1>week that and I did some analysis here. There are

249
00:14:05.960 --> 00:14:09.240
<v Speaker 1>twenty out of the top five hundred. There are twenty

250
00:14:09.320 --> 00:14:13.919
<v Speaker 1>eight players from the Milwaukee Brewers, there are twenty two

251
00:14:14.120 --> 00:14:17.519
<v Speaker 1>players from the Dodgers. And then there's a team I'm

252
00:14:17.519 --> 00:14:21.480
<v Speaker 1>gonna let you guess that has twenty six players in

253
00:14:21.600 --> 00:14:26.639
<v Speaker 1>the top five hundred. What is that missing team?

254
00:14:27.279 --> 00:14:32.960
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I'm just trying to cheat here and scan quickly

255
00:14:33.039 --> 00:14:37.960
<v Speaker 2>through the list. I have no idea how the Washington.

256
00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:44.320
<v Speaker 1>Washington Nationals, Washington Nationals have been developing players extremely well.

257
00:14:44.879 --> 00:14:47.639
<v Speaker 1>And that was that was a real uha moment for

258
00:14:47.759 --> 00:14:50.679
<v Speaker 1>me because I was I was because I did them

259
00:14:50.679 --> 00:14:52.919
<v Speaker 1>in alphabetic order, and I did the bottoms upperproach. I

260
00:14:52.960 --> 00:14:55.360
<v Speaker 1>got to the Nationals, I'm like, I was tired, and

261
00:14:55.360 --> 00:14:58.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, oh my gosh, look at these just kept coming.

262
00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:00.840
<v Speaker 1>And it's like and then when I in my ranking,

263
00:15:01.320 --> 00:15:04.399
<v Speaker 1>so they've got so that accounts for sixteen to seventeen

264
00:15:04.440 --> 00:15:07.759
<v Speaker 1>percent of all the top five hundred from three teams.

265
00:15:08.080 --> 00:15:11.159
<v Speaker 1>It accounted for twenty five percent of the top one

266
00:15:11.240 --> 00:15:12.559
<v Speaker 1>hundred coming from.

267
00:15:12.399 --> 00:15:15.000
<v Speaker 2>That speak volumes. Eh, wow, that is crazy.

268
00:15:15.720 --> 00:15:18.159
<v Speaker 1>I'm not even sure what the make of that, but

269
00:15:18.279 --> 00:15:20.679
<v Speaker 1>it does look like things have gotten a little out

270
00:15:20.679 --> 00:15:23.360
<v Speaker 1>of balance. There are just you know, they're dying. We

271
00:15:23.720 --> 00:15:26.600
<v Speaker 1>talk about, you know, the haves and have nots in

272
00:15:26.759 --> 00:15:28.960
<v Speaker 1>Major League Baseball sort of be a little bit of

273
00:15:28.960 --> 00:15:32.200
<v Speaker 1>have and have nots in the minor leagues as well well.

274
00:15:32.440 --> 00:15:37.840
<v Speaker 2>And you know why, when you look at the arguments

275
00:15:37.879 --> 00:15:41.360
<v Speaker 2>that the players versus owners are going into right now

276
00:15:41.399 --> 00:15:46.600
<v Speaker 2>as far as the new CBA, maybe some of the

277
00:15:46.639 --> 00:15:50.159
<v Speaker 2>teams at the bottom of the list should do less

278
00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:55.399
<v Speaker 2>complaining and do more of the leg work required to

279
00:15:55.480 --> 00:16:01.080
<v Speaker 2>actually improve their systems. Okay, because the Brewers are going

280
00:16:01.120 --> 00:16:04.480
<v Speaker 2>to feed off their minor league players for the next

281
00:16:04.519 --> 00:16:07.200
<v Speaker 2>ten years, aren't they just the current crop? And we

282
00:16:07.279 --> 00:16:09.799
<v Speaker 2>got a draft coming up this weekend. They're going to

283
00:16:09.840 --> 00:16:12.519
<v Speaker 2>better their situation, as are the Dodgers. Right.

284
00:16:13.519 --> 00:16:16.200
<v Speaker 1>I think the Brewers and the Dodgers in particular, are

285
00:16:16.200 --> 00:16:20.559
<v Speaker 1>playing a different ball game than everybody else. I mean, look,

286
00:16:20.799 --> 00:16:23.679
<v Speaker 1>you have. The thing that's amazing about the Dodgers is

287
00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:26.080
<v Speaker 1>they don't have to play the player development game because

288
00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:28.440
<v Speaker 1>they can just spend more than anybody. But the fact

289
00:16:28.440 --> 00:16:32.559
<v Speaker 1>that they do that is it gives them a tremendous

290
00:16:32.639 --> 00:16:35.559
<v Speaker 1>backstop because if they guess wrong on paying a guy

291
00:16:35.679 --> 00:16:38.159
<v Speaker 1>to big salary, that's okay, They'll just make up for

292
00:16:38.240 --> 00:16:40.679
<v Speaker 1>it at the trade deadline and here, who do you want,

293
00:16:40.759 --> 00:16:44.720
<v Speaker 1>I'll take your best guy. It's an amazing kind of

294
00:16:44.759 --> 00:16:49.799
<v Speaker 1>backs up. The Brewers, being that the least profitable or

295
00:16:49.919 --> 00:16:53.759
<v Speaker 1>revenue generating team in baseball, have had to go to

296
00:16:53.799 --> 00:16:55.799
<v Speaker 1>this approach and guess what it's working.

297
00:16:57.240 --> 00:16:59.320
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, you know, you tell you a look at

298
00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:01.600
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers, okay, and you say, well, yeah, they gave

299
00:17:01.679 --> 00:17:05.480
<v Speaker 2>up your Dan Alvarez. That did not hurt per se

300
00:17:05.599 --> 00:17:08.400
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers, they'd be better with your Dan Alvarez. But

301
00:17:08.480 --> 00:17:10.880
<v Speaker 2>you take a team like the Minnesota Twins, if they

302
00:17:10.920 --> 00:17:13.200
<v Speaker 2>give up on your Dan Alvarez, that's a big deal,

303
00:17:13.279 --> 00:17:13.640
<v Speaker 2>isn't it.

304
00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:17.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And and the you know, they didn't give up relatively,

305
00:17:17.960 --> 00:17:20.359
<v Speaker 1>they didn't give up. They made they made a mistake, right,

306
00:17:20.400 --> 00:17:22.359
<v Speaker 1>I mean that they they did. He was he was

307
00:17:22.599 --> 00:17:25.920
<v Speaker 1>He was a eighteen seventeen year old, big hulking kid

308
00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:28.559
<v Speaker 1>in the minor leagues. And that was back when Jeff

309
00:17:28.640 --> 00:17:31.680
<v Speaker 1>Luno was the King of the Pile, and he scouted

310
00:17:31.759 --> 00:17:34.359
<v Speaker 1>him and he knew what the potential was. And they

311
00:17:34.759 --> 00:17:38.640
<v Speaker 1>basically they ripped them off. I mean, it's enough, no

312
00:17:38.720 --> 00:17:40.920
<v Speaker 1>other way to say it. They they took advantage of

313
00:17:40.960 --> 00:17:43.400
<v Speaker 1>the Dodgers not knowing the player that they.

314
00:17:43.279 --> 00:17:48.119
<v Speaker 2>Had right exactly. But again, for a team like the Dodgers,

315
00:17:48.119 --> 00:17:49.559
<v Speaker 2>I guess what I was trying to get to. The

316
00:17:49.599 --> 00:17:53.000
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers can make mistakes like that. They can have they

317
00:17:53.000 --> 00:17:57.680
<v Speaker 2>can have those bad moments. And they got seven flipping outfielders,

318
00:17:58.160 --> 00:18:00.519
<v Speaker 2>you know, in the top hundred. They can do it.

319
00:18:00.599 --> 00:18:04.680
<v Speaker 2>Other teams can't. They can't make those mistakes or they

320
00:18:04.720 --> 00:18:07.480
<v Speaker 2>don't want to and can't a combination of both. But

321
00:18:07.839 --> 00:18:12.000
<v Speaker 2>getting back to the overall concept, when you looked at

322
00:18:12.279 --> 00:18:18.079
<v Speaker 2>how have you changed your philosophies at all in the

323
00:18:18.119 --> 00:18:21.880
<v Speaker 2>first half of the Traditionally you've been heavier on bats

324
00:18:21.960 --> 00:18:25.160
<v Speaker 2>later on pitching. And we all know why. You explained

325
00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:29.640
<v Speaker 2>of any times have you are you still adopt adapting

326
00:18:29.880 --> 00:18:35.400
<v Speaker 2>to that sort of philosophy on your just your pure rankings,

327
00:18:35.920 --> 00:18:40.000
<v Speaker 2>rich like, where are you at as far as as

328
00:18:40.039 --> 00:18:42.000
<v Speaker 2>far as the process is concerned.

329
00:18:43.000 --> 00:18:48.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I still prefer bats. I mean there's just less

330
00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:52.440
<v Speaker 1>volatility on that. So you know, all things, all things equal,

331
00:18:52.640 --> 00:18:57.599
<v Speaker 1>I am going to take a bat over over an

332
00:18:57.720 --> 00:19:00.440
<v Speaker 1>arm every time. I mean, it can't be. Because we're

333
00:19:00.440 --> 00:19:05.240
<v Speaker 1>a little lighter here with you know, top prospects. More

334
00:19:05.319 --> 00:19:10.400
<v Speaker 1>pictures have have filtered into the top one hundred, and

335
00:19:10.480 --> 00:19:14.519
<v Speaker 1>in fact, I have fancy little calculations. Let me get

336
00:19:14.559 --> 00:19:17.000
<v Speaker 1>over to make it over to the list for our

337
00:19:17.000 --> 00:19:19.400
<v Speaker 1>Patreon members. You can go to the summary page and

338
00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:21.839
<v Speaker 1>you can type in you know, one hundred, put in

339
00:19:21.880 --> 00:19:24.119
<v Speaker 1>one hundred as your thing, and it tells you that

340
00:19:24.200 --> 00:19:31.319
<v Speaker 1>there are twenty percent pictures eighty percent hitters. That's in

341
00:19:31.359 --> 00:19:35.039
<v Speaker 1>the top hundred, in the top five hundred, there are

342
00:19:36.079 --> 00:19:40.000
<v Speaker 1>thirty three percent pictures, so third pictures too there, So

343
00:19:40.039 --> 00:19:43.160
<v Speaker 1>that's how it kind of goes the breakdown of that.

344
00:19:43.480 --> 00:19:47.240
<v Speaker 2>So well, you know, it makes total sense that pitching

345
00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:51.440
<v Speaker 2>would be increasing on your list simply because of the

346
00:19:51.480 --> 00:19:55.880
<v Speaker 2>attrition factor. Pictures at the big league level are getting hurt. Okay,

347
00:19:55.920 --> 00:19:59.440
<v Speaker 2>teams are going to the minors and calling up pictures earlier,

348
00:20:00.039 --> 00:20:03.000
<v Speaker 2>and they probably would like to. But you got to

349
00:20:03.039 --> 00:20:06.680
<v Speaker 2>have arms somewhere, right, so where you know that backfill

350
00:20:06.720 --> 00:20:08.680
<v Speaker 2>has got to come from their prospects, right, so they

351
00:20:08.759 --> 00:20:11.200
<v Speaker 2>got to be moving. They're moving quicker, much quicker.

352
00:20:11.920 --> 00:20:14.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and again it could yeah, it is, and it

353
00:20:14.519 --> 00:20:18.759
<v Speaker 1>could be just a long held belief I have that

354
00:20:18.759 --> 00:20:21.799
<v Speaker 1>that hitters are less volatile and therefore we should rank

355
00:20:21.880 --> 00:20:26.240
<v Speaker 1>them higher. But you know, dynasty leagues and fantasy leagues

356
00:20:26.279 --> 00:20:29.559
<v Speaker 1>is all about pitching. So I mean, so maybe maybe

357
00:20:29.559 --> 00:20:31.240
<v Speaker 1>you should have pictures out there. But you know what,

358
00:20:31.759 --> 00:20:35.680
<v Speaker 1>I think pitchers develop a lot later than hitters. And

359
00:20:35.920 --> 00:20:38.799
<v Speaker 1>there are there are the David Sandlin's of the world. Yeah,

360
00:20:38.799 --> 00:20:41.319
<v Speaker 1>I know he's not been good the last few times

361
00:20:41.359 --> 00:20:44.039
<v Speaker 1>out but those guys blow up and double and triple

362
00:20:44.119 --> 00:20:47.599
<v Speaker 1>a where they finally get learn how to locate their

363
00:20:47.640 --> 00:20:51.440
<v Speaker 1>pitches better. They you know, they get better secondary pitches

364
00:20:51.480 --> 00:20:52.720
<v Speaker 1>and all of a sudden they go from a guy

365
00:20:52.759 --> 00:20:57.119
<v Speaker 1>that can't throw strikes and platoon splits to whoa, what's

366
00:20:57.119 --> 00:20:59.480
<v Speaker 1>happening here? And those are the kind of guys you

367
00:20:59.519 --> 00:21:02.400
<v Speaker 1>can get late. It's hard to sit there and say, well,

368
00:21:02.400 --> 00:21:05.519
<v Speaker 1>that's a top twenty five guy, because why would you

369
00:21:05.519 --> 00:21:07.160
<v Speaker 1>put a top twenty five guy and he's got a

370
00:21:07.200 --> 00:21:09.599
<v Speaker 1>six ear a. You know that's not hard to do.

371
00:21:10.920 --> 00:21:13.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but the raw skills might be saying something different

372
00:21:13.839 --> 00:21:16.400
<v Speaker 2>from worth that sixty year a. He could be pitching

373
00:21:16.480 --> 00:21:18.200
<v Speaker 2>a renala.

374
00:21:18.920 --> 00:21:21.359
<v Speaker 1>Well that's true, but but you know, and if people

375
00:21:21.400 --> 00:21:24.400
<v Speaker 1>read the narrative, I mean, hopefully that's there if I

376
00:21:24.480 --> 00:21:26.359
<v Speaker 1>may a mote for a few minutes. One of the

377
00:21:26.359 --> 00:21:29.839
<v Speaker 1>problems about this list nobody reads the narrative. I mean,

378
00:21:29.880 --> 00:21:32.319
<v Speaker 1>some people read the comments, but few people dig in

379
00:21:32.440 --> 00:21:35.960
<v Speaker 1>to get, you know, the detail of the particular player.

380
00:21:36.480 --> 00:21:38.319
<v Speaker 1>But if you read my write up, I mean it

381
00:21:38.400 --> 00:21:41.359
<v Speaker 1>tells you, like what the event, what the positives of

382
00:21:41.400 --> 00:21:43.079
<v Speaker 1>this guy is, and what he needs to work on.

383
00:21:43.680 --> 00:21:46.960
<v Speaker 1>And I go into gory details, particularly on pictures. What

384
00:21:47.240 --> 00:21:49.319
<v Speaker 1>you know, they got platoon splits, or they don't have

385
00:21:49.319 --> 00:21:52.400
<v Speaker 1>platoon splits, they got control proms. He's athletic enough to

386
00:21:52.440 --> 00:21:54.680
<v Speaker 1>turn that into control. Or I think this guy's going

387
00:21:54.759 --> 00:21:56.519
<v Speaker 1>to work in the bull and it's all sitting in there.

388
00:21:56.680 --> 00:21:59.200
<v Speaker 1>I might be wrong, but it's all sitting in there.

389
00:21:59.240 --> 00:22:01.680
<v Speaker 1>But few people, well they don't go. They don't do

390
00:22:01.720 --> 00:22:03.960
<v Speaker 1>that detail. They go. The guy's rank forty five, it

391
00:22:04.039 --> 00:22:06.680
<v Speaker 1>must be pretty good. All right, Okay, thank you.

392
00:22:09.039 --> 00:22:12.319
<v Speaker 2>See what where I try to feast on your list?

393
00:22:12.480 --> 00:22:15.200
<v Speaker 2>Rich is not the top one hundred for the most part.

394
00:22:15.279 --> 00:22:17.519
<v Speaker 2>It's interesting you see who's up, down whatever. A lot

395
00:22:17.519 --> 00:22:20.480
<v Speaker 2>of those names are common, some aren't. Where I like

396
00:22:20.599 --> 00:22:23.720
<v Speaker 2>to try and feast on this list is looking down

397
00:22:23.839 --> 00:22:27.519
<v Speaker 2>from say one hundred to two hundred and fifty and

398
00:22:27.599 --> 00:22:34.880
<v Speaker 2>finding the guys that have improved new pitches control pick one,

399
00:22:35.400 --> 00:22:38.599
<v Speaker 2>but they're closer to the big leagues, and odds are

400
00:22:38.599 --> 00:22:40.759
<v Speaker 2>pretty good. A lot of those pictures are going to

401
00:22:40.759 --> 00:22:44.119
<v Speaker 2>be available, So that's that's sort of my target area

402
00:22:44.880 --> 00:22:48.359
<v Speaker 2>is looking at those pictures from high to double A,

403
00:22:48.720 --> 00:22:51.720
<v Speaker 2>moving up the rankings. Pictures I can get for next

404
00:22:51.759 --> 00:22:57.079
<v Speaker 2>to nothing, right now, Okay, that could move up another

405
00:22:57.240 --> 00:23:00.480
<v Speaker 2>sixty spots and then in the next three months, okay

406
00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:04.279
<v Speaker 2>and try. And that's how I approach it. Anyways, each

407
00:23:04.319 --> 00:23:08.079
<v Speaker 2>to their own. Everybody's got but you need pitching, and

408
00:23:08.160 --> 00:23:10.359
<v Speaker 2>you're not going to get any of the top top

409
00:23:10.440 --> 00:23:13.119
<v Speaker 2>five ten guys because they're all rostered. You got to

410
00:23:13.160 --> 00:23:17.079
<v Speaker 2>focus on something that's reasonable and something that's attainable. So

411
00:23:17.799 --> 00:23:20.799
<v Speaker 2>that's how I approach it. Yeah, I meant, how do

412
00:23:20.839 --> 00:23:23.039
<v Speaker 2>you about you? How do you approach pitching in the

413
00:23:23.160 --> 00:23:27.440
<v Speaker 2>Dynasty League looking at a list like this of ranked

414
00:23:27.519 --> 00:23:31.079
<v Speaker 2>players where well, I could tell me where are you going?

415
00:23:32.079 --> 00:23:35.920
<v Speaker 1>So you I mean, you can count on us on

416
00:23:35.920 --> 00:23:40.839
<v Speaker 1>one hand how many DSL and Complex pitchers I have

417
00:23:41.079 --> 00:23:43.799
<v Speaker 1>ever ranked on a top five HUNDERD. I mean, I

418
00:23:43.880 --> 00:23:46.440
<v Speaker 1>just don't. I don't spend any time with it. Therefore

419
00:23:46.480 --> 00:23:52.400
<v Speaker 1>I miss countries the kid from Kansas City. So and

420
00:23:53.039 --> 00:23:55.480
<v Speaker 1>just because I wasn't following him, he went from the

421
00:23:55.559 --> 00:23:58.640
<v Speaker 1>DSL to the Complex the low Way last season. First

422
00:23:58.640 --> 00:24:02.160
<v Speaker 1>of all, you never see that guy. You never see

423
00:24:02.640 --> 00:24:05.799
<v Speaker 1>you never see that, right, And he just snuck up

424
00:24:05.839 --> 00:24:09.000
<v Speaker 1>on me and by the time I recognize him in

425
00:24:09.039 --> 00:24:10.839
<v Speaker 1>low A, he said, oh, there's an interesting guy. He

426
00:24:10.920 --> 00:24:14.279
<v Speaker 1>was already gone to Dynasty leagues because others were on

427
00:24:14.440 --> 00:24:16.640
<v Speaker 1>it a little clicker. But I'm not going to waste

428
00:24:16.680 --> 00:24:20.079
<v Speaker 1>my time on a seventeen year old kid in the

429
00:24:20.160 --> 00:24:23.119
<v Speaker 1>DSL because it doesn't matter if they're throwing one hundred

430
00:24:23.160 --> 00:24:26.079
<v Speaker 1>miles an hour or whatever they're doing. The likelihood of

431
00:24:26.119 --> 00:24:30.680
<v Speaker 1>them getting through the process is extremely low. So I

432
00:24:30.839 --> 00:24:34.359
<v Speaker 1>start to look at them quite frankly, when they're if

433
00:24:34.400 --> 00:24:36.960
<v Speaker 1>they're starting to have some success in low way maybe,

434
00:24:37.039 --> 00:24:39.359
<v Speaker 1>but it's not really until high A where they start

435
00:24:39.400 --> 00:24:42.640
<v Speaker 1>to have success. And people are our Patreon members know,

436
00:24:42.720 --> 00:24:45.279
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's mostly High A and up. I focus

437
00:24:45.359 --> 00:24:48.240
<v Speaker 1>on pictures and those are that's where I fish out of.

438
00:24:48.279 --> 00:24:52.440
<v Speaker 1>And it's I have no trouble to me fishing in

439
00:24:52.480 --> 00:24:56.519
<v Speaker 1>that pond because they're readily available on waiver wires.

440
00:24:57.720 --> 00:24:59.799
<v Speaker 2>Well yeah, and it's it's much like I'll go through

441
00:24:59.839 --> 00:25:01.720
<v Speaker 2>so time in the next week or so the All

442
00:25:01.759 --> 00:25:04.279
<v Speaker 2>Star break next week, I'll go through and I'll look

443
00:25:04.319 --> 00:25:07.440
<v Speaker 2>at those pictures from one hundred. As you know, I

444
00:25:07.519 --> 00:25:10.119
<v Speaker 2>mentioned to you know, for John to do, look at

445
00:25:10.119 --> 00:25:12.599
<v Speaker 2>the pictures between one and three hundred, one and four

446
00:25:12.680 --> 00:25:17.359
<v Speaker 2>hundred and just find who's at double A because odds

447
00:25:17.359 --> 00:25:20.400
<v Speaker 2>are pretty good that we might see them in the

448
00:25:20.480 --> 00:25:23.880
<v Speaker 2>second half. So if I'm looking at spec pitching, it's

449
00:25:23.880 --> 00:25:27.279
<v Speaker 2>a guy's at Double A that are still available. They

450
00:25:27.279 --> 00:25:30.640
<v Speaker 2>don't have the upside, no, but especially in regraft leagues,

451
00:25:30.720 --> 00:25:34.000
<v Speaker 2>you can find yourself some gems. Yeah, at least I

452
00:25:34.039 --> 00:25:36.960
<v Speaker 2>believe you can't sure to me.

453
00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:40.319
<v Speaker 1>And again, I do this for a living. I'm very

454
00:25:40.319 --> 00:25:44.359
<v Speaker 1>proud of what we've created at the Patreon site. People

455
00:25:44.480 --> 00:25:48.599
<v Speaker 1>need to join us at the Patreon site because just

456
00:25:48.720 --> 00:25:51.920
<v Speaker 1>like with you with the waiver wire, you pictures come

457
00:25:52.039 --> 00:25:57.039
<v Speaker 1>in with new pitches, they're bigger, they're stronger, et cetera.

458
00:25:57.519 --> 00:25:59.799
<v Speaker 1>That's they blow up in the first month, and that's

459
00:25:59.799 --> 00:26:03.119
<v Speaker 1>when you grab him. Carson mill brand is a perfect example.

460
00:26:03.680 --> 00:26:06.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's a guy that walked five for nine

461
00:26:06.759 --> 00:26:09.920
<v Speaker 1>last season and it did okay, but he comes into

462
00:26:09.960 --> 00:26:13.839
<v Speaker 1>Double A shoving it and looks like a completely different picture.

463
00:26:13.920 --> 00:26:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Carson mill Brandt is with the Miami Marlins. Now he's

464
00:26:17.960 --> 00:26:20.680
<v Speaker 1>in Triple A, quite frankly, sitting right on the precipice

465
00:26:20.720 --> 00:26:22.799
<v Speaker 1>of being caught up. Now again, he's having a little

466
00:26:22.799 --> 00:26:25.200
<v Speaker 1>trouble in Triple A. But that's to be expecting still

467
00:26:25.240 --> 00:26:28.200
<v Speaker 1>a young kid. But that's a guy who booked this season,

468
00:26:28.799 --> 00:26:32.480
<v Speaker 1>and you could have grabbed him. Our patrion members could

469
00:26:32.480 --> 00:26:35.039
<v Speaker 1>have grabbed him like I did in the first weeks

470
00:26:35.079 --> 00:26:37.480
<v Speaker 1>of April. That's when you find these guys.

471
00:26:38.000 --> 00:26:42.680
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, and in a situation where White has a

472
00:26:42.759 --> 00:26:45.240
<v Speaker 2>questionable history, we're obviously knowing and we're not going to

473
00:26:45.240 --> 00:26:49.359
<v Speaker 2>see him really until twenty twenty eight. All of a sudden,

474
00:26:49.400 --> 00:26:55.200
<v Speaker 2>these kids are We're going to see some of those

475
00:26:55.279 --> 00:26:58.480
<v Speaker 2>kids simply because of attrition.

476
00:26:58.759 --> 00:27:02.920
<v Speaker 1>Right, Jonathan Santucci, You'll like him because he's an Italian guy.

477
00:27:03.000 --> 00:27:07.240
<v Speaker 1>He likes saying there's Italian names. Left handed pitcher, left

478
00:27:07.279 --> 00:27:11.400
<v Speaker 1>handed pitchure bets I saw last week and I'm just impressive, right,

479
00:27:11.480 --> 00:27:14.599
<v Speaker 1>And he moved up from three point fifty nine to

480
00:27:14.720 --> 00:27:18.480
<v Speaker 1>one thirty. And again, those guys are all coming up

481
00:27:18.519 --> 00:27:20.279
<v Speaker 1>in the first couple of months of the year. You

482
00:27:20.440 --> 00:27:24.799
<v Speaker 1>typically don't see a guy, any any pitcher or hitter

483
00:27:25.079 --> 00:27:28.359
<v Speaker 1>breaking out in July and August. It just doesn't happen, right,

484
00:27:28.680 --> 00:27:31.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, they're they're somewhat playing out the string at

485
00:27:31.160 --> 00:27:33.480
<v Speaker 1>that point. They're getting tired, a lot of them are

486
00:27:33.519 --> 00:27:37.759
<v Speaker 1>getting hurt and they're the teams are working on stuff,

487
00:27:37.759 --> 00:27:40.079
<v Speaker 1>but it's really in the off season where stuff gets

488
00:27:40.119 --> 00:27:43.079
<v Speaker 1>worked on, where guys hit the weight room, et cetera,

489
00:27:43.240 --> 00:27:45.480
<v Speaker 1>and they come in a different player.

490
00:27:49.440 --> 00:27:52.079
<v Speaker 2>Cool. Well, with all of that in mind, I want

491
00:27:52.119 --> 00:27:57.000
<v Speaker 2>to thank you for the for the general overview. Do

492
00:27:57.000 --> 00:27:59.119
<v Speaker 2>you want to go through, say the top ten, top

493
00:27:59.160 --> 00:28:02.359
<v Speaker 2>fifteen and take a look at them individually and then

494
00:28:02.440 --> 00:28:06.279
<v Speaker 2>do some bouncing around then maybe subcussions. What how do

495
00:28:06.279 --> 00:28:07.160
<v Speaker 2>you want to approach this.

496
00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:09.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to take them, take a take a break

497
00:28:09.440 --> 00:28:11.200
<v Speaker 1>right now, and then come back and let's let's go

498
00:28:11.240 --> 00:28:24.799
<v Speaker 1>to the top ten again. You can get off five

499
00:28:24.880 --> 00:28:28.880
<v Speaker 1>hundred of these prospects at Prospect three sixty one. Excuse me,

<v Speaker 1>You get Tim on the Discord site and Tim's grab

507
00:28:46.880 --> 00:28:50.000
<v Speaker 1>some questions from there, and that's where we spend most

508
00:28:50.160 --> 00:28:53.480
<v Speaker 1>of our time and energy kind of squirreling around there.

509
00:28:53.880 --> 00:28:55.640
<v Speaker 1>But Tim, we can go to tell you it's your

510
00:28:55.799 --> 00:28:58.079
<v Speaker 1>it's your show, Timmy, which is very mater.

511
00:28:58.319 --> 00:29:03.400
<v Speaker 2>But we can do that, and I thank you. I

512
00:29:03.839 --> 00:29:06.359
<v Speaker 2>it may be dangerous, but until I get control of

513
00:29:06.480 --> 00:29:09.880
<v Speaker 2>that zero point zero, but you have never seen dangerous

514
00:29:13.400 --> 00:29:18.279
<v Speaker 2>at number one? Wow, what can you say? I think

515
00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:20.359
<v Speaker 2>he's gonna Do you have any thoughts about did you

516
00:29:20.400 --> 00:29:24.200
<v Speaker 2>have any thoughts about maybe moving Franklin areas ahead him?

517
00:29:24.319 --> 00:29:25.759
<v Speaker 2>Or is it a clear number one?

518
00:29:27.119 --> 00:29:31.599
<v Speaker 1>Look's not had a great season. I mean it's been good,

519
00:29:31.720 --> 00:29:35.799
<v Speaker 1>but it's he's It's still more about potential with him.

520
00:29:36.000 --> 00:29:38.240
<v Speaker 1>But I've seen him play live a couple of times,

521
00:29:38.440 --> 00:29:40.440
<v Speaker 1>and I mean, just look at him and he goes,

522
00:29:40.480 --> 00:29:43.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh my gosh, this guy's gonna he's gonna be good.

523
00:29:43.559 --> 00:29:47.759
<v Speaker 1>The power hasn't showed up yet, but that's been the

524
00:29:47.920 --> 00:29:50.480
<v Speaker 1>physicality of the guy. He just needs to get stronger.

525
00:29:50.519 --> 00:29:52.160
<v Speaker 1>He's a baby. He's nineteen years old.

526
00:29:53.680 --> 00:29:56.519
<v Speaker 2>Double double A and succeed, Yeah, succeed.

527
00:29:56.720 --> 00:30:00.960
<v Speaker 1>And he's again he's not having the Jacksonurion double A

528
00:30:01.079 --> 00:30:03.319
<v Speaker 1>season they have, But I think he's a better hitter

529
00:30:03.400 --> 00:30:06.440
<v Speaker 1>than Jackson Churio and he's gonna have massive power. He's

530
00:30:06.480 --> 00:30:09.359
<v Speaker 1>got good speed. Now I think it fades every time.

531
00:30:10.920 --> 00:30:14.000
<v Speaker 1>I will be shocked if hayesus my day is not

532
00:30:14.039 --> 00:30:14.559
<v Speaker 1>an All Star.

533
00:30:16.400 --> 00:30:19.200
<v Speaker 2>Okay, yeah, Number two we have Franklin Derives.

534
00:30:21.640 --> 00:30:25.000
<v Speaker 1>Saw him in Double A twice. Now I have no

535
00:30:25.160 --> 00:30:29.319
<v Speaker 1>idea why he's still in Double A. Two guys this year,

536
00:30:29.319 --> 00:30:31.119
<v Speaker 1>and I've gone to a ton of games, as you know,

537
00:30:31.799 --> 00:30:34.519
<v Speaker 1>the two guys that had the best at bats where

538
00:30:34.559 --> 00:30:38.960
<v Speaker 1>Franklin Arise and Ike Irish. They look like major league

539
00:30:39.039 --> 00:30:42.480
<v Speaker 1>hitters where they shorten up when there's two strikes, they

540
00:30:42.559 --> 00:30:44.480
<v Speaker 1>go the other way when the balls pitched on the

541
00:30:44.519 --> 00:30:46.519
<v Speaker 1>outside of the plate. Use them when you go to

542
00:30:46.599 --> 00:30:49.400
<v Speaker 1>minor league games, Timmy, I mean the guys are closing

543
00:30:49.400 --> 00:30:51.079
<v Speaker 1>their eyes and swinging as hard as they can. I

544
00:30:51.119 --> 00:30:54.039
<v Speaker 1>mean there's particularly the lower levels of the minor leagues.

545
00:30:54.039 --> 00:30:55.279
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this is the way it is.

546
00:30:56.279 --> 00:30:58.799
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, there's a big sign up there, gone vision

547
00:30:58.960 --> 00:31:00.599
<v Speaker 2>right exactly. Yeah, I mean.

548
00:31:02.359 --> 00:31:05.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm being dramatic here, but I mean it's it's rare

549
00:31:05.440 --> 00:31:07.799
<v Speaker 1>that you see a guy that, Wow, that looks like

550
00:31:08.319 --> 00:31:10.000
<v Speaker 1>that looks like what you see in the major league

551
00:31:10.079 --> 00:31:12.920
<v Speaker 1>level with good players and frank and we've been waiting

552
00:31:13.000 --> 00:31:14.920
<v Speaker 1>for Franklin Rise much like we just talked about with

553
00:31:15.160 --> 00:31:18.440
<v Speaker 1>Hazus my day. Where's the power? Where's the power? Kept

554
00:31:18.480 --> 00:31:20.279
<v Speaker 1>telling everybody there's going to be power there, and I

555
00:31:20.319 --> 00:31:23.920
<v Speaker 1>look stupid. H And also this year seventeen home runs,

556
00:31:24.400 --> 00:31:27.240
<v Speaker 1>so he's on pace for twenty five thirty. Again, I

557
00:31:27.240 --> 00:31:29.200
<v Speaker 1>don't think twenty five to thirty is going to be

558
00:31:29.519 --> 00:31:31.599
<v Speaker 1>his number. But if he's going to be a twenty

559
00:31:31.640 --> 00:31:34.480
<v Speaker 1>home run ten stolen based guy that could hit three hundred,

560
00:31:35.400 --> 00:31:37.160
<v Speaker 1>it's a great He's going to be a great player.

561
00:31:37.720 --> 00:31:40.079
<v Speaker 1>Why he's still in double A is beyond me. I

562
00:31:40.200 --> 00:31:40.519
<v Speaker 1>don't know.

563
00:31:42.440 --> 00:31:46.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's some sort of organizational decision.

564
00:31:46.480 --> 00:31:46.759
<v Speaker 1>It's not.

565
00:31:47.079 --> 00:31:49.160
<v Speaker 2>It's not based on pure raw talent.

566
00:31:49.279 --> 00:31:52.960
<v Speaker 1>Is this decision dysfunction? To Mateo tomorrow?

567
00:31:53.119 --> 00:32:02.240
<v Speaker 2>Here well plaid, well played? Yeah, rimshot time at number three?

568
00:32:02.359 --> 00:32:06.000
<v Speaker 2>We got im Ryan pronounce it right, Haws you Japaula.

569
00:32:06.839 --> 00:32:08.880
<v Speaker 1>I think it's Osway to Paula. But if you want

570
00:32:08.880 --> 00:32:11.519
<v Speaker 1>to say, how's you? I mean there's a lot of

571
00:32:11.559 --> 00:32:14.079
<v Speaker 1>guys the first name of j O s U I

572
00:32:14.799 --> 00:32:17.440
<v Speaker 1>s U E, and they always say Hasway. But look,

573
00:32:17.519 --> 00:32:20.079
<v Speaker 1>this is a guy that can hit with big power.

574
00:32:21.400 --> 00:32:23.519
<v Speaker 1>He's the Dodger. I mean, look, if you want to

575
00:32:23.559 --> 00:32:25.799
<v Speaker 1>put Zayer Hope in front of from a fantasy standpoint,

576
00:32:25.839 --> 00:32:29.519
<v Speaker 1>because he's got more speed. Okay, but the Paula has

577
00:32:29.559 --> 00:32:32.599
<v Speaker 1>got close to twenty stolen bases a lot. With Miday,

578
00:32:32.920 --> 00:32:36.559
<v Speaker 1>it's going to be power and batting average. They're young,

579
00:32:36.599 --> 00:32:39.599
<v Speaker 1>they're athletic, so they can run. But eventually he's going

580
00:32:39.640 --> 00:32:41.400
<v Speaker 1>to slow down. Don't think Zayer Hope's going to slow

581
00:32:41.440 --> 00:32:43.279
<v Speaker 1>down any of that. Guy's always going to have speed.

582
00:32:43.279 --> 00:32:46.119
<v Speaker 1>Does he hit enough? Man, I don't know, but the

583
00:32:46.680 --> 00:32:47.200
<v Speaker 1>going to hit.

584
00:32:49.519 --> 00:32:54.359
<v Speaker 2>Okay. At number four, we have Max Clerk uh uh

585
00:32:55.319 --> 00:32:59.880
<v Speaker 2>down one spot. It seems like a disappointing season for Clerk,

586
00:33:00.599 --> 00:33:03.440
<v Speaker 2>But when you really take a deep look, I think

587
00:33:03.559 --> 00:33:11.519
<v Speaker 2>maybe it's not as disappointing as it as it actually is.

588
00:33:11.720 --> 00:33:14.759
<v Speaker 2>You know what I mean? It just kids, got a

589
00:33:14.799 --> 00:33:15.920
<v Speaker 2>pile of skills and he's young.

590
00:33:16.839 --> 00:33:20.319
<v Speaker 1>Uh I think I think I think it's been I

591
00:33:20.359 --> 00:33:21.400
<v Speaker 1>think it's been disappointing.

592
00:33:21.519 --> 00:33:21.640
<v Speaker 2>Right.

593
00:33:21.720 --> 00:33:23.599
<v Speaker 1>So my first kind of disc on I put out

594
00:33:24.039 --> 00:33:27.160
<v Speaker 1>a primary Top one hunter to our Patreon members maybe

595
00:33:27.200 --> 00:33:29.000
<v Speaker 1>a week and week and a half ago. Hey, this

596
00:33:29.160 --> 00:33:31.039
<v Speaker 1>is what I'm thinking. I think I'm x Clark down

597
00:33:31.079 --> 00:33:34.079
<v Speaker 1>in twelve or thirteen, And I said you know, caveat

598
00:33:35.079 --> 00:33:39.960
<v Speaker 1>I can change my mind before some one comes out. Uh, yeah,

599
00:33:40.039 --> 00:33:44.359
<v Speaker 1>you're mindless. So I just I mean, I spent a

600
00:33:44.400 --> 00:33:47.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of time like thinking about Clark, talk to some

601
00:33:47.119 --> 00:33:51.119
<v Speaker 1>people about it. He's a good baseball player. All the skills,

602
00:33:51.279 --> 00:33:54.000
<v Speaker 1>as you were saying, are there. He's still terribly young,

603
00:33:54.799 --> 00:33:58.279
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, he showed some flashes early of maybe the

604
00:33:58.359 --> 00:34:01.359
<v Speaker 1>guy he could be. He he hasn't had that big

605
00:34:01.519 --> 00:34:04.640
<v Speaker 1>season where he's put it all together. It looks like

606
00:34:04.759 --> 00:34:06.519
<v Speaker 1>that big season is going to come at the major

607
00:34:06.599 --> 00:34:11.000
<v Speaker 1>league level. But I mean, he's fast, he's I think

608
00:34:11.039 --> 00:34:13.719
<v Speaker 1>his average exivelocity is in the eighty eight eighty nine

609
00:34:13.800 --> 00:34:15.760
<v Speaker 1>miles an hour. He needs ad a little bit more

610
00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:19.320
<v Speaker 1>leverage to push the power up a little bit. It's

611
00:34:19.519 --> 00:34:22.079
<v Speaker 1>all sitting there. It just hasn't come together. So I

612
00:34:22.320 --> 00:34:28.400
<v Speaker 1>just so it's a pure scouting analytics ranking here, and

613
00:34:28.480 --> 00:34:30.360
<v Speaker 1>I try to do that with all of mine. I

614
00:34:30.440 --> 00:34:34.000
<v Speaker 1>know people on the Discord Signe particularly retrashing me the

615
00:34:34.079 --> 00:34:36.639
<v Speaker 1>other day because I talk analytics all the time, But

616
00:34:36.719 --> 00:34:38.079
<v Speaker 1>that's just who I am. If you don't like that,

617
00:34:38.199 --> 00:34:41.719
<v Speaker 1>then then don't join us at the Patriots, because that's

618
00:34:41.760 --> 00:34:44.400
<v Speaker 1>what I ad that's just who I am. I just

619
00:34:44.599 --> 00:34:48.039
<v Speaker 1>think that. Look, if you look at the stat line,

620
00:34:48.079 --> 00:34:50.440
<v Speaker 1>he should be a lot lower, but I think all

621
00:34:50.480 --> 00:34:53.440
<v Speaker 1>the skills are there. So I'm going down with a

622
00:34:53.480 --> 00:34:55.960
<v Speaker 1>ship of this. I'm going down with a ship, my friend.

623
00:34:56.239 --> 00:34:59.320
<v Speaker 1>So I will admit if I was wrong, I will

624
00:34:59.360 --> 00:34:59.840
<v Speaker 1>go down.

625
00:34:59.719 --> 00:35:02.719
<v Speaker 2>With the s. So you and the violin player. The

626
00:35:02.840 --> 00:35:08.079
<v Speaker 2>last one's off the Titanic, right exactly. So yeah, okay,

627
00:35:08.599 --> 00:35:10.880
<v Speaker 2>fair enough. At number five, we got liol.

628
00:35:12.159 --> 00:35:16.360
<v Speaker 1>Just go Leo Leo Da Leo Dallas these.

629
00:35:17.119 --> 00:35:24.400
<v Speaker 2>Nah, okay, shortstop with the athletics. He's moving he's moving

630
00:35:24.480 --> 00:35:24.840
<v Speaker 2>on up.

631
00:35:25.599 --> 00:35:29.800
<v Speaker 1>He's had a great season too, and I mean I thought,

632
00:35:30.079 --> 00:35:32.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean he's nineteen, so there's no reason to bring

633
00:35:33.000 --> 00:35:36.400
<v Speaker 1>him up. You talked about like should we put a

634
00:35:36.440 --> 00:35:38.880
<v Speaker 1>column in there for a guy who might get caught up?

635
00:35:39.039 --> 00:35:41.679
<v Speaker 1>If if you, if we get on a show on

636
00:35:41.760 --> 00:35:44.280
<v Speaker 1>Sunday or Friday and say, Defrice has got called up,

637
00:35:44.320 --> 00:35:48.440
<v Speaker 1>it would not surprise me. He's really he's really something.

638
00:35:49.480 --> 00:35:50.280
<v Speaker 2>He's ready.

639
00:35:51.400 --> 00:35:54.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if he's ready. But the guy's got speed,

640
00:35:54.400 --> 00:35:57.519
<v Speaker 1>he's got power. He's a really good short stop. He's

641
00:35:57.519 --> 00:36:02.440
<v Speaker 1>he as good as Jacob Wilson. No defensively at shortstop.

642
00:36:02.559 --> 00:36:05.519
<v Speaker 1>But I think Wilson's hurt. I can't follow by the

643
00:36:05.559 --> 00:36:10.039
<v Speaker 1>way one of the one of the nuts side, and

644
00:36:10.119 --> 00:36:12.199
<v Speaker 1>if it's one of the casualties of the last two

645
00:36:12.280 --> 00:36:14.159
<v Speaker 1>weeks is I have no idea what's going on in

646
00:36:14.280 --> 00:36:18.400
<v Speaker 1>Major League Baseball. So the last time Jacob Wilson is heard,

647
00:36:19.199 --> 00:36:21.400
<v Speaker 1>I have no idea what's going on with my fantasy teams.

648
00:36:21.679 --> 00:36:24.280
<v Speaker 1>I missed Zach Zach Wheeler's last start. He was on

649
00:36:24.400 --> 00:36:26.400
<v Speaker 1>my bitch. I don't know why I thought I put

650
00:36:26.440 --> 00:36:29.239
<v Speaker 1>him in. I just missed him. So I have been

651
00:36:29.440 --> 00:36:31.320
<v Speaker 1>a wall on that.

652
00:36:31.559 --> 00:36:34.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and the other Max Muns. He is now at

653
00:36:34.760 --> 00:36:36.480
<v Speaker 2>a I did read that.

654
00:36:36.679 --> 00:36:43.079
<v Speaker 1>I did read that, so yeah, I do like uh,

655
00:36:44.199 --> 00:36:46.119
<v Speaker 1>I do think that Leo de Rice, I think we

656
00:36:46.199 --> 00:36:48.280
<v Speaker 1>see him this Yeay. He's had a really good, really

657
00:36:48.320 --> 00:36:48.719
<v Speaker 1>good year.

658
00:36:50.199 --> 00:36:54.760
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Sebastian Walcock, I wasn't aware that I was under

659
00:36:54.760 --> 00:36:56.920
<v Speaker 2>the impression he was lost for the season, but you

660
00:36:57.000 --> 00:37:00.559
<v Speaker 2>were saying he's getting back, he's ramping up a little bit,

661
00:37:00.599 --> 00:37:02.000
<v Speaker 2>getting back in baseball activities.

662
00:37:02.519 --> 00:37:05.760
<v Speaker 1>He is, I've been told, should be the end of July.

663
00:37:06.159 --> 00:37:09.679
<v Speaker 1>So he had elbow brace surgery and that's allowing him

664
00:37:09.719 --> 00:37:11.639
<v Speaker 1>to come back a little sooner. At least that's what

665
00:37:11.760 --> 00:37:14.679
<v Speaker 1>the hope is. According to people I spoke without it

666
00:37:14.840 --> 00:37:18.840
<v Speaker 1>in the Rangers organization and as I right, as so

667
00:37:18.880 --> 00:37:21.119
<v Speaker 1>many returns to farm, there's no reason I think he won't.

668
00:37:21.159 --> 00:37:25.599
<v Speaker 1>He remains one of the best prospects in the game. Yeah,

669
00:37:26.360 --> 00:37:29.119
<v Speaker 1>he should have been up already, Timmy. But as they say,

670
00:37:29.199 --> 00:37:30.239
<v Speaker 1>shit happens.

671
00:37:32.159 --> 00:37:34.480
<v Speaker 2>Yes, and the beat part of that is you're never

672
00:37:34.559 --> 00:37:36.599
<v Speaker 2>going to change a It's still going to happen. To

673
00:37:36.760 --> 00:37:38.719
<v Speaker 2>live with it, right, that is correct.

674
00:37:38.800 --> 00:37:41.440
<v Speaker 1>But he's he's going to be very very good.

675
00:37:43.119 --> 00:37:46.079
<v Speaker 2>Yes, at number seven, we have our first pitcher on

676
00:37:46.239 --> 00:37:51.800
<v Speaker 2>the list, and what a bitcher he is. Seth Fernandez

677
00:37:51.960 --> 00:37:53.360
<v Speaker 2>of Pitchensburg Pirates.

678
00:37:54.199 --> 00:37:59.360
<v Speaker 1>Wow, tore it up in low way has been more

679
00:37:59.480 --> 00:38:02.239
<v Speaker 1>mortal and high a. It's a guy that we thought

680
00:38:02.280 --> 00:38:04.440
<v Speaker 1>could pull it, maybe pull a tray, you savage. I

681
00:38:04.480 --> 00:38:07.440
<v Speaker 1>mean it was probably five percent chance he pulls the tray,

682
00:38:07.480 --> 00:38:10.599
<v Speaker 1>you savage and rips to the minor leagues. Well, Hi

683
00:38:10.719 --> 00:38:13.039
<v Speaker 1>A proved to be a little bit more challenged. I

684
00:38:13.079 --> 00:38:15.480
<v Speaker 1>did get a chance to see one of his games. Uh,

685
00:38:15.760 --> 00:38:17.920
<v Speaker 1>and it's the real it's the real deal. I mean

686
00:38:17.920 --> 00:38:21.519
<v Speaker 1>it's big stuff. He walked. It was his first game

687
00:38:21.599 --> 00:38:23.719
<v Speaker 1>in hi A and he walked two of the first

688
00:38:23.840 --> 00:38:26.400
<v Speaker 1>five guys and then settled down. I thought it was nerves.

689
00:38:26.960 --> 00:38:29.519
<v Speaker 1>Maybe the control isn't quite there yet. But I mean

690
00:38:29.599 --> 00:38:33.119
<v Speaker 1>he's got size, he's got stuff. He's he's pitching to

691
00:38:33.159 --> 00:38:36.360
<v Speaker 1>the right organization. Uh, it's it's all I mean, come on,

692
00:38:36.760 --> 00:38:37.320
<v Speaker 1>it's all there.

693
00:38:37.440 --> 00:38:43.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I can't add much to that. Number nine, a

694
00:38:44.039 --> 00:38:46.960
<v Speaker 2>guy that I don't really know all that much about,

695
00:38:47.039 --> 00:38:48.880
<v Speaker 2>but as soon as I see is with the Tampa

696
00:38:48.960 --> 00:38:51.719
<v Speaker 2>bay Rays, it sort of scares me. The Deo Gillen

697
00:38:52.320 --> 00:38:53.920
<v Speaker 2>at number age.

698
00:38:54.639 --> 00:38:57.599
<v Speaker 1>Interesting that you say it scares you. It's interesting you

699
00:38:57.639 --> 00:39:02.159
<v Speaker 1>say it scares you because the the Tampa bay Rays.

700
00:39:02.199 --> 00:39:04.599
<v Speaker 1>If I take a look at the number of as

701
00:39:04.639 --> 00:39:08.039
<v Speaker 1>I entered this process, the number of maybe players they

702
00:39:08.119 --> 00:39:11.679
<v Speaker 1>had was huge, and then I just you just get

703
00:39:11.800 --> 00:39:15.840
<v Speaker 1>into it, and the guys have just been disappointing to him.

704
00:39:15.880 --> 00:39:19.639
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you know, they they they have not developed

705
00:39:19.639 --> 00:39:23.159
<v Speaker 1>the way I thought of. I mean, Brody Hopkins, he's

706
00:39:23.199 --> 00:39:25.320
<v Speaker 1>got some of the best stuff in the minor leagues.

707
00:39:25.360 --> 00:39:27.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean absolutely, he can't throw shrikes. I mean he's

708
00:39:28.239 --> 00:39:31.039
<v Speaker 1>and that's what the Rays do well. They can't get

709
00:39:31.119 --> 00:39:33.960
<v Speaker 1>him to throw strikes. There's a lot of pictures on

710
00:39:34.079 --> 00:39:37.280
<v Speaker 1>the race. Uh Suarez who Santiego Suarez is one of

711
00:39:37.320 --> 00:39:41.559
<v Speaker 1>my guys. His stuff is falling off. The one guy

712
00:39:42.159 --> 00:39:43.719
<v Speaker 1>that has it well, there's a couple of guys. But

713
00:39:44.559 --> 00:39:47.559
<v Speaker 1>Theo Gillen, who I like coming out of the draft

714
00:39:47.679 --> 00:39:50.599
<v Speaker 1>last season, has really blown up this year and he

715
00:39:50.719 --> 00:39:53.000
<v Speaker 1>looks like he's on his way to superstard him. But

716
00:39:53.079 --> 00:39:56.519
<v Speaker 1>a lot of the other Tampa Bay Rays, the Carson Williams,

717
00:39:56.599 --> 00:39:59.840
<v Speaker 1>the Xavier Isaac's and the guys that were we thought

718
00:40:00.119 --> 00:40:02.159
<v Speaker 1>lot of over the last couple of years have just

719
00:40:02.679 --> 00:40:03.599
<v Speaker 1>not put it together.

720
00:40:06.039 --> 00:40:07.320
<v Speaker 2>Huh. Interesting.

721
00:40:07.679 --> 00:40:10.000
<v Speaker 1>Remember Trade Morgan? Remember Trade Morgan with.

722
00:40:10.039 --> 00:40:16.360
<v Speaker 2>The oh yeah apostrophe, Yeah yeah, all of the ad spellings.

723
00:40:16.480 --> 00:40:17.480
<v Speaker 2>I remember.

724
00:40:19.280 --> 00:40:21.840
<v Speaker 1>The last I looked, he's hitting like two ten and

725
00:40:22.039 --> 00:40:25.639
<v Speaker 1>with three home runs or something. I mean, just completely

726
00:40:25.760 --> 00:40:28.239
<v Speaker 1>fell apart when he got to triple A. Just can't

727
00:40:28.440 --> 00:40:32.360
<v Speaker 1>cannot hit hitting two o seven five home runs, striking

728
00:40:32.400 --> 00:40:34.639
<v Speaker 1>out a third at the time. This is a guy

729
00:40:34.719 --> 00:40:38.400
<v Speaker 1>that made tremendous content. Explain this to me, mister McLeod

730
00:40:38.960 --> 00:40:43.800
<v Speaker 1>in twenty twenty four. Yeah, he struck out eleven percent

731
00:40:43.880 --> 00:40:46.679
<v Speaker 1>of the time. This season, again he's hurt, striking out

732
00:40:46.719 --> 00:40:49.719
<v Speaker 1>a third of the time. I'm not sure what happened

733
00:40:49.760 --> 00:40:53.039
<v Speaker 1>to this guy. Maybe obviously he's hurt now, but did

734
00:40:53.159 --> 00:40:56.280
<v Speaker 1>something happened that an injury just he's been brutal.

735
00:40:58.360 --> 00:40:59.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that doesn't make sense.

736
00:41:00.239 --> 00:41:02.039
<v Speaker 1>There's a ton of rays like that.

737
00:41:03.440 --> 00:41:06.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because generally as a rule where they have problems

738
00:41:06.760 --> 00:41:10.079
<v Speaker 2>is high aided double A right, double A to triple

739
00:41:10.119 --> 00:41:12.840
<v Speaker 2>A shouldn't be that, it shouldn't be as challenging per se,

740
00:41:13.719 --> 00:41:16.719
<v Speaker 2>that first big step, at least to me, that first

741
00:41:16.760 --> 00:41:20.199
<v Speaker 2>big step is more of a measuring stick than double

742
00:41:20.280 --> 00:41:22.280
<v Speaker 2>A to triple A right totally.

743
00:41:23.000 --> 00:41:25.360
<v Speaker 1>But for the rays at least it looks well, some

744
00:41:25.480 --> 00:41:29.039
<v Speaker 1>of it's going into double A, but it's I mean, again,

745
00:41:29.239 --> 00:41:32.880
<v Speaker 1>Theo Gillen's been great, Nathan Following, who is a catcher,

746
00:41:33.079 --> 00:41:37.320
<v Speaker 1>and Caden Bodine, who was another catcher that the Orioles drafted.

747
00:41:37.760 --> 00:41:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Those guys have blown up tat and Gray has been

748
00:41:40.920 --> 00:41:45.119
<v Speaker 1>tremendous this season. Cooper Fleming's been good, but Hopkins has dropped,

749
00:41:45.199 --> 00:41:49.039
<v Speaker 1>Daniel Pierce hasn't played, Carson Williams has dropped, here's a

750
00:41:49.159 --> 00:41:51.679
<v Speaker 1>guy that has remember Braydon.

751
00:41:51.360 --> 00:41:55.639
<v Speaker 2>Taylor, Braiden Taylor rings a bell, he's a.

752
00:41:55.679 --> 00:41:58.039
<v Speaker 1>First round draft pick a few years ago. It looks

753
00:41:58.039 --> 00:42:02.119
<v Speaker 1>like a baseball player all of a sudden, so us

754
00:42:02.760 --> 00:42:04.559
<v Speaker 1>so that they've had some wins, but a lot of

755
00:42:04.639 --> 00:42:07.280
<v Speaker 1>guys have really fallen off. I mean TJ. Nichols is

756
00:42:07.280 --> 00:42:09.320
<v Speaker 1>a guy that struck out a ton of guys all

757
00:42:09.360 --> 00:42:12.400
<v Speaker 1>a sudden. He can't throw strikes this year. Jacob Melton

758
00:42:12.519 --> 00:42:16.480
<v Speaker 1>looks like a platoon guy. He's dropped. I mean, just

759
00:42:16.599 --> 00:42:20.639
<v Speaker 1>a lot of reds reds. And yet that's not good

760
00:42:20.719 --> 00:42:23.719
<v Speaker 1>on my list. The guys that have dropped with no.

761
00:42:23.840 --> 00:42:27.679
<v Speaker 2>I the other thing that's not good about that hole scenario,

762
00:42:27.719 --> 00:42:30.480
<v Speaker 2>it was a raise. You need to draft. That is

763
00:42:30.599 --> 00:42:34.280
<v Speaker 2>their source of Yeah, they're not going to go out

764
00:42:34.320 --> 00:42:36.920
<v Speaker 2>and sign the big free agents. They've got to make

765
00:42:36.960 --> 00:42:39.400
<v Speaker 2>their draft work or they have problems. Right.

766
00:42:39.599 --> 00:42:44.000
<v Speaker 1>I think they picked second. M hm, So let's see

767
00:42:44.320 --> 00:42:49.119
<v Speaker 1>they Yeah, they picked second, the White Sox, Rays, Twins, Giants, Pirates.

768
00:42:50.079 --> 00:42:53.039
<v Speaker 1>Look for that Pirate pick at five, that's that could

769
00:42:53.079 --> 00:42:55.800
<v Speaker 1>be a really interesting pick. But yeah, the White Sox,

770
00:42:55.920 --> 00:43:02.039
<v Speaker 1>so somebody's going to get Rochilowski uh huh.

771
00:43:02.440 --> 00:43:07.519
<v Speaker 2>And I don't think the White Sox will walk by them.

772
00:43:07.559 --> 00:43:08.400
<v Speaker 2>I think they'll take them.

773
00:43:09.159 --> 00:43:12.239
<v Speaker 1>I think you have to. I don't know how, I

774
00:43:12.320 --> 00:43:14.559
<v Speaker 1>mean I get it. Our buddy Tim Webers thinks he's

775
00:43:14.599 --> 00:43:17.920
<v Speaker 1>ever ready. He could be, but I mean he's a

776
00:43:18.119 --> 00:43:21.280
<v Speaker 1>pretty pretty high floor. That's the other thing we always

777
00:43:21.320 --> 00:43:23.360
<v Speaker 1>talk about when you do rankings, you do it the

778
00:43:23.440 --> 00:43:23.880
<v Speaker 1>same thing.

779
00:43:24.480 --> 00:43:25.079
<v Speaker 2>Is it is it?

780
00:43:25.480 --> 00:43:28.920
<v Speaker 1>Is it ceiling over floor? Is it floor over ceiling?

781
00:43:29.360 --> 00:43:32.320
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. I mean, well, I think a lot

782
00:43:32.480 --> 00:43:37.920
<v Speaker 2>depends on where you're at as far as your dynasty, uh,

783
00:43:39.119 --> 00:43:42.400
<v Speaker 2>as far as your dynasty players rostered. Okay, if you've

784
00:43:42.480 --> 00:43:47.280
<v Speaker 2>got an ample number okay of safe high high floor pix,

785
00:43:47.360 --> 00:43:49.800
<v Speaker 2>well you can afford, and you've got depth, you can

786
00:43:49.880 --> 00:43:53.639
<v Speaker 2>afford to speck a little bit, okay, and take those chances.

787
00:43:54.280 --> 00:44:00.840
<v Speaker 2>If you're looking at uh a minor league roster that

788
00:44:01.039 --> 00:44:05.679
<v Speaker 2>is stocked with high risk, high reward tize, well maybe

789
00:44:05.760 --> 00:44:08.159
<v Speaker 2>you should get a couple safe floors and balanced it. Oh.

790
00:44:08.400 --> 00:44:11.480
<v Speaker 2>I think a lot depends on the individual circumstances behind

791
00:44:11.519 --> 00:44:15.000
<v Speaker 2>the teams. At least that's how I would think it

792
00:44:15.079 --> 00:44:16.880
<v Speaker 2>should it should roll.

793
00:44:18.079 --> 00:44:19.840
<v Speaker 1>So if we go back to the two thousand and

794
00:44:20.519 --> 00:44:24.880
<v Speaker 1>twenty four draft, which when it was a Travis Bozana

795
00:44:24.920 --> 00:44:29.559
<v Speaker 1>went number one and Connor Griffin went number nine. It's

796
00:44:30.000 --> 00:44:33.400
<v Speaker 1>probably gonna and that Nick Kurtz went for that draft.

797
00:44:33.719 --> 00:44:36.239
<v Speaker 1>It's probably going to work out that Connor Griffin is

798
00:44:36.280 --> 00:44:37.840
<v Speaker 1>going to be the best player in that draft. But

799
00:44:37.920 --> 00:44:40.719
<v Speaker 1>he went nine, but the guys in front of him

800
00:44:40.760 --> 00:44:44.440
<v Speaker 1>were all college kids. Bizana, Chase Burns has been great,

801
00:44:44.559 --> 00:44:47.880
<v Speaker 1>Charlie Condon, I still think there's Nick Kurr taken. Smith

802
00:44:47.880 --> 00:44:51.039
<v Speaker 1>has been a disaster. Jack kaglin Owen's been okay, JJ Weatherhill,

803
00:44:51.159 --> 00:44:53.719
<v Speaker 1>Christian Moore has been a disaster. But the Angels pick

804
00:44:53.800 --> 00:44:56.320
<v Speaker 1>disaster players, so you get the and then Connor Griffin,

805
00:44:56.440 --> 00:44:59.960
<v Speaker 1>so you know, it's it's interesting all those college kids

806
00:45:00.039 --> 00:45:01.800
<v Speaker 1>and then they got the first prep guy and he

807
00:45:01.960 --> 00:45:06.119
<v Speaker 1>blows up. Should the Cleveland Guardians have taken counter Griffin.

808
00:45:06.159 --> 00:45:08.639
<v Speaker 1>Of course they should have, but they decided to go

809
00:45:08.719 --> 00:45:10.719
<v Speaker 1>a little safer. They went with the higher fourth PA

810
00:45:10.800 --> 00:45:13.679
<v Speaker 1>was on and so did everybody else. But the guy

811
00:45:13.719 --> 00:45:15.599
<v Speaker 1>who blew up as a high school kid. It could

812
00:45:15.639 --> 00:45:18.360
<v Speaker 1>have very much gone the other way. Countor Griffin, pick

813
00:45:18.440 --> 00:45:21.360
<v Speaker 1>another name, could have could have you know, kind of disappointed.

814
00:45:22.360 --> 00:45:27.039
<v Speaker 2>Brian Taylor. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know it could

815
00:45:27.119 --> 00:45:30.440
<v Speaker 2>have it could have ended up in that hitting in

816
00:45:30.480 --> 00:45:30.880
<v Speaker 2>that direct.

817
00:45:30.920 --> 00:45:34.400
<v Speaker 1>Well, just in that same draft sixteen with PJ Orlando

818
00:45:34.599 --> 00:45:38.760
<v Speaker 1>with the Miami Marlins. Again, Marlins are terrible at drafting guys.

819
00:45:39.039 --> 00:45:41.960
<v Speaker 1>He's not a major leader, he's a high school kid.

820
00:45:41.960 --> 00:45:42.679
<v Speaker 1>He's not gonna make it.

821
00:45:42.960 --> 00:45:45.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah, And then you flip then you flip back

822
00:45:45.840 --> 00:45:48.480
<v Speaker 2>to Mike Piazza being picked at a thousand or whatever

823
00:45:48.599 --> 00:45:50.840
<v Speaker 2>it was, the odd the odd bulls and you look

824
00:45:50.880 --> 00:45:54.400
<v Speaker 2>at Mike Trout. Yeah, where where did he go twenty five,

825
00:45:54.519 --> 00:45:55.800
<v Speaker 2>twenty six when we're in there.

826
00:45:55.760 --> 00:45:57.559
<v Speaker 1>Twenty one, twenty three, something like that.

827
00:45:57.719 --> 00:46:00.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it was in the twenties. Yeah, yeah.

828
00:46:02.199 --> 00:46:04.960
<v Speaker 1>But it's it is it is. It is risk reward,

829
00:46:05.159 --> 00:46:07.400
<v Speaker 1>it's it's you're going to go to the high upside guy.

830
00:46:07.559 --> 00:46:10.840
<v Speaker 1>And look, I think if you play it safe and

831
00:46:11.000 --> 00:46:14.440
<v Speaker 1>and the the Angels have, I mean it's a perfect example.

832
00:46:14.519 --> 00:46:17.599
<v Speaker 1>They play it safe every year they get Nolan Shannywells

833
00:46:17.639 --> 00:46:20.880
<v Speaker 1>and and Christian Moore's of the world and as Zach

834
00:46:21.000 --> 00:46:23.320
<v Speaker 1>Nido's been probably the only guy that's worked out, even

835
00:46:23.360 --> 00:46:26.400
<v Speaker 1>though he's had a tough season you know now that

836
00:46:26.960 --> 00:46:30.159
<v Speaker 1>Mozealak is a temporary guy running. That'll be interesting to

837
00:46:30.199 --> 00:46:33.559
<v Speaker 1>see how they do this draft because they need to

838
00:46:33.639 --> 00:46:36.119
<v Speaker 1>get and and they're they're actually systems a little bit

839
00:46:36.159 --> 00:46:39.559
<v Speaker 1>better this year, believe it or not. They they need

840
00:46:39.679 --> 00:46:41.719
<v Speaker 1>to bring in some talent. It would be good for

841
00:46:41.920 --> 00:46:44.920
<v Speaker 1>them to get a high school kid at the draft

842
00:46:45.039 --> 00:46:47.800
<v Speaker 1>that's that has a chance to you can really build

843
00:46:47.840 --> 00:46:50.480
<v Speaker 1>around kind of an Eli Willis of the world, a

844
00:46:50.559 --> 00:46:54.960
<v Speaker 1>guy that really tooled off, very very athletic, and see

845
00:46:54.960 --> 00:46:56.400
<v Speaker 1>what they can do as opposed to go in the

846
00:46:56.519 --> 00:46:59.519
<v Speaker 1>Christian more round I mean, which is you know, th guys,

847
00:46:59.760 --> 00:47:01.280
<v Speaker 1>he's it's not going to be anything. We knew that

848
00:47:01.320 --> 00:47:02.559
<v Speaker 1>when he gets drafted.

849
00:47:04.840 --> 00:47:07.679
<v Speaker 2>At number nine. Moving along, we have a guy who

850
00:47:07.719 --> 00:47:10.719
<v Speaker 2>hasn't played yet this year. I know that you're still

851
00:47:10.800 --> 00:47:14.440
<v Speaker 2>obviously very high on Apparently I was reading somewhere I

852
00:47:14.480 --> 00:47:17.559
<v Speaker 2>think about Trey Turner, Turner moving to the outfield or

853
00:47:17.599 --> 00:47:20.320
<v Speaker 2>something that would definitely help Aiden Miller, wouldn't it.

854
00:47:20.960 --> 00:47:22.920
<v Speaker 1>Oh, I haven't looked at the metrics on Turner. Maybe

855
00:47:23.000 --> 00:47:26.039
<v Speaker 1>his defense is starting to fall a little bit. Remember

856
00:47:26.119 --> 00:47:27.880
<v Speaker 1>when Trey Turner came up, he came up as an

857
00:47:27.880 --> 00:47:31.960
<v Speaker 1>outfielder center fielder forgot who was playing shortstop for the

858
00:47:32.159 --> 00:47:35.880
<v Speaker 1>Phillies when he when he made that move. But anyway, look,

859
00:47:35.920 --> 00:47:39.920
<v Speaker 1>ad Miller, it sounds a little concerning, right because this

860
00:47:40.079 --> 00:47:42.679
<v Speaker 1>is a guy that he hurt us back. He went

861
00:47:42.719 --> 00:47:46.639
<v Speaker 1>in for some kind I was reading some kind of

862
00:47:47.559 --> 00:47:51.679
<v Speaker 1>new procedure, which is not something you ever want to hear.

863
00:47:52.159 --> 00:47:55.559
<v Speaker 2>Right now. That's not a good sign new procedures.

864
00:47:55.679 --> 00:48:00.000
<v Speaker 1>No, okay, yeah, So but it's a lower blumbard issue,

865
00:48:00.119 --> 00:48:02.199
<v Speaker 1>you which you know, I've had back surgery on my

866
00:48:02.639 --> 00:48:06.960
<v Speaker 1>my lower back. It's it's not good. But I don't

867
00:48:07.000 --> 00:48:10.360
<v Speaker 1>know how we can discount him too much until you know, obviously,

868
00:48:10.360 --> 00:48:11.840
<v Speaker 1>if he doesn't play the whole season, I've got to

869
00:48:11.920 --> 00:48:14.039
<v Speaker 1>drop him at the you know, going in next year

870
00:48:14.079 --> 00:48:16.079
<v Speaker 1>a little bit. But I mean he's still got. He

871
00:48:16.159 --> 00:48:18.480
<v Speaker 1>still was great, particularly in the second half last year.

872
00:48:18.519 --> 00:48:20.559
<v Speaker 1>So I would assume he's still going to be good.

873
00:48:22.480 --> 00:48:24.679
<v Speaker 2>Okay, and I I'm going to call our tenth pick.

874
00:48:24.719 --> 00:48:26.400
<v Speaker 2>We're going to discus We're going to say ten A

875
00:48:26.599 --> 00:48:30.639
<v Speaker 2>and ten B. H Okay, because we're talking a right

876
00:48:30.719 --> 00:48:33.480
<v Speaker 2>handed pitcher and a left handed pitcher, both out of

877
00:48:33.519 --> 00:48:39.119
<v Speaker 2>the Mariners system. One who I think is a gimme

878
00:48:39.480 --> 00:48:42.880
<v Speaker 2>that we see in the second half in Kate Anderson.

879
00:48:43.719 --> 00:48:48.880
<v Speaker 2>But you have him behind Ryan Sloan or are they?

880
00:48:49.159 --> 00:48:52.320
<v Speaker 2>Are they ten A and ten B. What are your

881
00:48:52.360 --> 00:48:54.559
<v Speaker 2>thoughts on on Sloan versus Anderson.

882
00:48:55.159 --> 00:48:58.280
<v Speaker 1>I think Slun's the higher upside guy. I mean, he

883
00:48:58.400 --> 00:49:01.960
<v Speaker 1>just throws harder. It's big your stuff. Keate Anderson does

884
00:49:02.239 --> 00:49:04.159
<v Speaker 1>ninety three miles an hour. I mean it's a it's

885
00:49:04.199 --> 00:49:07.960
<v Speaker 1>not avelossit guy. He's got really good secondary pitches, good location,

886
00:49:08.119 --> 00:49:12.719
<v Speaker 1>is a really really good picture. But I mean Sloan

887
00:49:12.840 --> 00:49:15.000
<v Speaker 1>is the is the home run, that's the guy that

888
00:49:15.360 --> 00:49:19.119
<v Speaker 1>you think can lead, you know, lead your rotation. I

889
00:49:19.280 --> 00:49:21.559
<v Speaker 1>don't think Kate Anderson is. I think he slots in

890
00:49:21.639 --> 00:49:25.519
<v Speaker 1>as a number two three guy, low risk, very very

891
00:49:25.599 --> 00:49:29.800
<v Speaker 1>low risk guy. I mean Sloan still doesn't always throw strike,

892
00:49:29.920 --> 00:49:32.880
<v Speaker 1>so there's some growth still that has to has to

893
00:49:32.920 --> 00:49:36.360
<v Speaker 1>occur there. But it's big stuff. He's a lefties that

894
00:49:36.840 --> 00:49:39.079
<v Speaker 1>I know. He's alrighty right, So there's a lot to

895
00:49:39.320 --> 00:49:40.760
<v Speaker 1>like with Sloan.

896
00:49:42.880 --> 00:49:45.199
<v Speaker 2>Okay, fair enough. Do you agree that we'll see Kate

897
00:49:45.280 --> 00:49:46.440
<v Speaker 2>Anderson in the second half?

898
00:49:48.280 --> 00:49:51.000
<v Speaker 1>Tim and I were talking before about should we have

899
00:49:51.079 --> 00:49:54.519
<v Speaker 1>a little column talking about when these guys arrive. I

900
00:49:54.599 --> 00:49:56.719
<v Speaker 1>would have thought Kate Anderson would have already been up.

901
00:49:57.320 --> 00:49:59.360
<v Speaker 1>I think it's going to take an injury or as

902
00:49:59.400 --> 00:50:02.480
<v Speaker 1>we've been talking about the Mariners moving some of their

903
00:50:02.760 --> 00:50:07.639
<v Speaker 1>major league starting pitcher pitching for some hitting. If you

904
00:50:07.840 --> 00:50:10.719
<v Speaker 1>tell me by when's the trade deadline? The third of August.

905
00:50:10.760 --> 00:50:12.119
<v Speaker 1>It's kind of a weird date this year.

906
00:50:12.280 --> 00:50:13.480
<v Speaker 2>It's a weird date.

907
00:50:13.559 --> 00:50:16.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, if you tell me the day after and they

908
00:50:16.559 --> 00:50:19.519
<v Speaker 1>still have their six starters answers, No, he's not going

909
00:50:19.599 --> 00:50:21.719
<v Speaker 1>to make it. If they trade one of them, or

910
00:50:21.800 --> 00:50:24.119
<v Speaker 1>they trade two of them. I think the answer is absolutely,

911
00:50:24.280 --> 00:50:25.920
<v Speaker 1>he'll be Then he is the next guy up.

912
00:50:27.159 --> 00:50:28.639
<v Speaker 2>Okay, and if he's not.

913
00:50:29.079 --> 00:50:31.199
<v Speaker 1>If he's not, it should be an investigation.

914
00:50:31.679 --> 00:50:36.920
<v Speaker 2>So okay, yeah, we'll start. We'll start right ranking their

915
00:50:37.000 --> 00:50:39.480
<v Speaker 2>prospects with the Rockies. Write something along.

916
00:50:39.719 --> 00:50:43.199
<v Speaker 1>Like yeah, I mean it's it's yeah, exactly, we should.

917
00:50:43.239 --> 00:50:45.239
<v Speaker 1>We will talk about the Rockies for a minute. So

918
00:50:45.320 --> 00:50:48.519
<v Speaker 1>that's good Segmentiny, Let's let's take a break and come back.

919
00:50:48.599 --> 00:50:50.199
<v Speaker 1>We're already at fifteen minutes. I hope you got a

920
00:50:50.199 --> 00:50:50.880
<v Speaker 1>few more minutes.

921
00:50:52.119 --> 00:50:54.679
<v Speaker 2>I've gotten nothing but time. All I've gotten planned for

922
00:50:54.760 --> 00:50:55.719
<v Speaker 2>the four years and now.

923
00:51:03.639 --> 00:51:05.880
<v Speaker 1>I just have a handyman coming in at some point

924
00:51:06.000 --> 00:51:10.480
<v Speaker 1>to put in a shower rod. So so guess guests

925
00:51:10.519 --> 00:51:12.960
<v Speaker 1>coming in in another week or so, And it would

926
00:51:12.960 --> 00:51:14.960
<v Speaker 1>be nice if there was a if there was a

927
00:51:15.039 --> 00:51:18.880
<v Speaker 1>shower curtain for the exposed to the element.

928
00:51:19.039 --> 00:51:25.199
<v Speaker 2>So, uh, yes, well you can sit down, you know, hey,

929
00:51:26.119 --> 00:51:28.800
<v Speaker 2>make up some popcorn, get a couple of drinks out

930
00:51:28.800 --> 00:51:32.039
<v Speaker 2>and watch cycle exactly exactly.

931
00:51:32.840 --> 00:51:36.719
<v Speaker 1>By the way, watching a TV show called The Beast

932
00:51:36.920 --> 00:51:41.960
<v Speaker 1>in Me with Matthew Reese, who's wonderful actor and clear Danes.

933
00:51:42.039 --> 00:51:46.039
<v Speaker 1>It's on Netflix. Wow, what a great show, kind of

934
00:51:46.119 --> 00:51:49.119
<v Speaker 1>in that it's in that psycho kind of world where

935
00:51:50.239 --> 00:51:52.960
<v Speaker 1>so the Beast in Me is kind of says it all.

936
00:51:53.119 --> 00:51:56.320
<v Speaker 1>So Matthew rees plays a bad dude. So it's very

937
00:51:56.480 --> 00:51:56.840
<v Speaker 1>very good.

938
00:51:57.760 --> 00:51:59.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, with a title like that, I thought it might

939
00:51:59.639 --> 00:52:02.239
<v Speaker 2>have been a documentary on that Norwegian.

940
00:52:03.039 --> 00:52:06.239
<v Speaker 1>Player, which what are you talking about?

941
00:52:06.960 --> 00:52:12.079
<v Speaker 2>Oh, the Norwegian uh soccer player.

942
00:52:12.920 --> 00:52:14.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what did you do.

943
00:52:15.760 --> 00:52:19.920
<v Speaker 2>Oh he's just a big he's just a beast. Yeah,

944
00:52:21.239 --> 00:52:26.320
<v Speaker 2>I don't know that that kid that's ruling the the airwaves.

945
00:52:26.400 --> 00:52:28.760
<v Speaker 2>He's one of the best in the world and apparently

946
00:52:28.920 --> 00:52:29.519
<v Speaker 2>nice kid too.

947
00:52:30.239 --> 00:52:32.079
<v Speaker 1>I've been I've been ranking players.

948
00:52:33.000 --> 00:52:36.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, the Norwegian Beast.

949
00:52:36.760 --> 00:52:40.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I know, France won yesterday and that's I I

950
00:52:41.559 --> 00:52:43.960
<v Speaker 1>don't want them to win the whole thing because they're

951
00:52:44.039 --> 00:52:46.440
<v Speaker 1>the team that always like flops all the time, and

952
00:52:46.519 --> 00:52:49.079
<v Speaker 1>they look like they're but they look like they're really

953
00:52:49.159 --> 00:52:51.159
<v Speaker 1>hurt and then they pop up and start running again.

954
00:52:51.360 --> 00:52:55.559
<v Speaker 1>It's long held, yeah, that they fake those to get

955
00:52:55.639 --> 00:52:59.119
<v Speaker 1>themselves rest time, and they always bug me. Anyway, wait, digress,

956
00:52:59.519 --> 00:53:00.280
<v Speaker 1>turn it back over to you.

957
00:53:01.760 --> 00:53:03.760
<v Speaker 2>Well, well, what do you think There's a couple of

958
00:53:03.800 --> 00:53:08.639
<v Speaker 2>players that I'd like you to discuss and then maybe

959
00:53:08.719 --> 00:53:11.280
<v Speaker 2>turn it over to you and let you go through

960
00:53:11.800 --> 00:53:15.119
<v Speaker 2>some of your favorites a little bit further down the list,

961
00:53:15.280 --> 00:53:17.639
<v Speaker 2>like if you know, is there really any point in

962
00:53:17.719 --> 00:53:22.039
<v Speaker 2>discussing discussing Joshua Bias? You know what I mean? It's yeah,

963
00:53:22.239 --> 00:53:26.719
<v Speaker 2>it's but a guy that caught my attention in a

964
00:53:26.840 --> 00:53:31.599
<v Speaker 2>big way is a picture with the Boston Red Sox

965
00:53:33.480 --> 00:53:40.320
<v Speaker 2>uh ianson I I. I know very very little of

966
00:53:40.400 --> 00:53:44.599
<v Speaker 2>this kid, and he's now up in your top twenty

967
00:53:44.639 --> 00:53:49.159
<v Speaker 2>five at twenty five. What's happening with Anthony I? Is

968
00:53:49.199 --> 00:53:50.639
<v Speaker 2>that fine to go through it? And that Are you

969
00:53:50.719 --> 00:53:53.840
<v Speaker 2>okay with that bof around? Yeah?

970
00:53:53.880 --> 00:53:56.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean he was. He was a kid that you know,

971
00:53:56.719 --> 00:54:01.320
<v Speaker 1>had potential entering the season and just I think he

972
00:54:01.440 --> 00:54:04.079
<v Speaker 1>started let me bring up his let me bring up

973
00:54:04.119 --> 00:54:09.440
<v Speaker 1>his uh hold on for second tim come back on? Okay.

974
00:54:10.559 --> 00:54:14.119
<v Speaker 1>Started off in high A, really just ridiculous and high

975
00:54:14.360 --> 00:54:18.239
<v Speaker 1>A zero point four to four e RA doing big

976
00:54:18.440 --> 00:54:23.039
<v Speaker 1>stuff obviously from the right side, got up the double

977
00:54:23.079 --> 00:54:26.079
<v Speaker 1>as it's been a little bit more mortal, but still

978
00:54:26.159 --> 00:54:29.920
<v Speaker 1>pitching to one seventy eight era A just looks like

979
00:54:30.039 --> 00:54:33.920
<v Speaker 1>he's it's a power arm, pretty good control if he

980
00:54:34.000 --> 00:54:36.960
<v Speaker 1>can stay healthy. You know, the Red Sox are treating

981
00:54:37.000 --> 00:54:39.000
<v Speaker 1>him with kit gloves here. They're not letting him go

982
00:54:39.079 --> 00:54:42.920
<v Speaker 1>over much over eighty pitches and so he's only doing

983
00:54:43.000 --> 00:54:45.239
<v Speaker 1>about five to six innings. I don't think he's gotten

984
00:54:45.280 --> 00:54:48.679
<v Speaker 1>over six innings this season yet, but strikeout. It's it's

985
00:54:48.760 --> 00:54:51.119
<v Speaker 1>good stuff and a guy that that kind of blew

986
00:54:51.239 --> 00:55:00.679
<v Speaker 1>up this season when he came in with basically better stuff. Okay,

987
00:55:01.400 --> 00:55:03.840
<v Speaker 1>anything else you want to know, anything else you want

988
00:55:03.880 --> 00:55:04.000
<v Speaker 1>to know?

989
00:55:04.920 --> 00:55:11.079
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, yeah, he's at double A and he's young, right.

990
00:55:11.599 --> 00:55:13.679
<v Speaker 1>And if I can just comment on Josh Bias a

991
00:55:13.719 --> 00:55:18.280
<v Speaker 1>little bit. Yeah, he's definitely sold out for power. I mean,

992
00:55:18.400 --> 00:55:21.239
<v Speaker 1>he's just swinging from the fences. He's got a huge

993
00:55:21.320 --> 00:55:25.760
<v Speaker 1>appercut swing, so I hope it works for him. But

994
00:55:25.840 --> 00:55:26.960
<v Speaker 1>he's going to strike out a lot.

995
00:55:28.320 --> 00:55:32.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, no, I hey, hey, if you solover power,

996
00:55:32.159 --> 00:55:34.280
<v Speaker 2>something's got to be effected, and it's going to be

997
00:55:34.599 --> 00:55:37.280
<v Speaker 2>that hit to him. That's right, Yeah, that's right.

998
00:55:37.480 --> 00:55:41.400
<v Speaker 1>So he's we'll see I mean, yeah, I know he's

999
00:55:42.119 --> 00:55:45.320
<v Speaker 1>been on your list. He's I think we'll see him

1000
00:55:45.320 --> 00:55:47.480
<v Speaker 1>in the second half. But I mean he has sold

1001
00:55:47.480 --> 00:55:51.920
<v Speaker 1>out for power. Everyone just just be aware, Okay.

1002
00:55:52.000 --> 00:55:55.480
<v Speaker 2>At number forty eight, keleb Bonnamer of the White Sox

1003
00:55:56.079 --> 00:55:59.400
<v Speaker 2>just a huge move up this year. I don't know

1004
00:55:59.480 --> 00:56:03.960
<v Speaker 2>what level, but if he's at double A, is there

1005
00:56:04.000 --> 00:56:05.440
<v Speaker 2>any chance we see him this year?

1006
00:56:06.079 --> 00:56:07.599
<v Speaker 1>I don't think so. I think he's in high A

1007
00:56:08.000 --> 00:56:09.800
<v Speaker 1>first of all, unless he he got moved up since

1008
00:56:09.960 --> 00:56:15.159
<v Speaker 1>I last looked. Look, so there are archetypes that we

1009
00:56:15.280 --> 00:56:18.920
<v Speaker 1>all know about. Speed guys, the Chandler Simpsons of the World,

1010
00:56:19.880 --> 00:56:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Savior Edwards, and this guy. In my little listening here,

1011
00:56:24.000 --> 00:56:27.639
<v Speaker 1>we've got Enrique Bradfield kind of the same guy that

1012
00:56:28.239 --> 00:56:32.239
<v Speaker 1>you hope maybe they developed some power. Edwards has developed

1013
00:56:32.280 --> 00:56:34.159
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of parentner. Where the speed has gone

1014
00:56:34.199 --> 00:56:38.239
<v Speaker 1>this season, we're seeing with Chandler Simpson. Last I looked,

1015
00:56:38.280 --> 00:56:40.840
<v Speaker 1>it's eighty four on our exit velocity, and I know

1016
00:56:41.239 --> 00:56:43.800
<v Speaker 1>people in the Discord site that don't like me talk

1017
00:56:43.840 --> 00:56:46.280
<v Speaker 1>about that. That's not hitting the ball very hard. So

1018
00:56:46.840 --> 00:56:50.079
<v Speaker 1>there's zero power there. So you have to worry when

1019
00:56:50.159 --> 00:56:53.800
<v Speaker 1>you when you got guys like that on your fantasy team, like,

1020
00:56:53.920 --> 00:56:56.400
<v Speaker 1>where are you going to find the power? Why Chandler

1021
00:56:56.440 --> 00:56:58.719
<v Speaker 1>Simpson went as early as he did, I'll never know,

1022
00:56:59.000 --> 00:57:01.639
<v Speaker 1>but he did. He'll probably get correct at next season.

1023
00:57:02.199 --> 00:57:05.239
<v Speaker 1>Then there's the archetype of the Kyle Schwarber's of the world.

1024
00:57:05.519 --> 00:57:10.079
<v Speaker 1>You know, power guys three true come outcome guys walk

1025
00:57:10.159 --> 00:57:12.320
<v Speaker 1>a lot, strike out a lot, hit the ball a

1026
00:57:12.360 --> 00:57:16.519
<v Speaker 1>long way. Kyle Schwarber has been a unicorn drafted in

1027
00:57:16.559 --> 00:57:20.360
<v Speaker 1>twenty fourteen debut. I think in fifteen or sixteen we

1028
00:57:20.559 --> 00:57:22.360
<v Speaker 1>count on forty home runs. But if he doesn't hit

1029
00:57:22.440 --> 00:57:25.559
<v Speaker 1>forty home runs and he gives you a two ten

1030
00:57:25.679 --> 00:57:28.280
<v Speaker 1>two twenty batting average, it hurts. I mean, you can't

1031
00:57:28.360 --> 00:57:31.199
<v Speaker 1>get twenty two home runs from Kyle Schwarber with a

1032
00:57:31.280 --> 00:57:33.719
<v Speaker 1>two ten batting average unless you're an one base percentage

1033
00:57:33.760 --> 00:57:35.679
<v Speaker 1>Lee Caleb Bonder.

1034
00:57:37.000 --> 00:57:39.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and it's still a problems.

1035
00:57:39.880 --> 00:57:42.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you still have to work around that. But if

1036
00:57:42.880 --> 00:57:46.719
<v Speaker 1>Chandler Simpson steals sixty bases, he's interesting. If he steals

1037
00:57:46.800 --> 00:57:47.920
<v Speaker 1>thirty bases, he's not.

1038
00:57:48.599 --> 00:57:48.639
<v Speaker 2>So.

1039
00:57:49.360 --> 00:57:54.199
<v Speaker 1>If Schwarber hits twenty home runs, he's not interesting anymore. Right,

1040
00:57:55.079 --> 00:57:57.840
<v Speaker 1>there's too much hair on it to be worth a

1041
00:57:58.159 --> 00:58:02.199
<v Speaker 1>rostering a guy like that. Well, Caleb Bonanimer, Eric Buttanti,

1042
00:58:02.440 --> 00:58:05.400
<v Speaker 1>those kind of guys that have seventy eighty gray Wall

1043
00:58:05.960 --> 00:58:09.880
<v Speaker 1>raw power are very comparable to Kyle Schwarber. Now the

1044
00:58:09.960 --> 00:58:13.760
<v Speaker 1>new one is Murakami. What Murakami did in the first

1045
00:58:13.840 --> 00:58:17.320
<v Speaker 1>two months of the season, we finally have the second Unicorn,

1046
00:58:17.440 --> 00:58:19.400
<v Speaker 1>at least temporarily. We need to see what he does

1047
00:58:19.480 --> 00:58:21.639
<v Speaker 1>over a long period of time. If he becomes the

1048
00:58:21.719 --> 00:58:24.920
<v Speaker 1>next Kyle Schwarber, you're going to see guys like Bonhamer

1049
00:58:25.119 --> 00:58:28.440
<v Speaker 1>and Buttanti, these guys that have three true outcome guys,

1050
00:58:28.760 --> 00:58:31.239
<v Speaker 1>they're going to get a lot of runway Because I mean,

1051
00:58:31.320 --> 00:58:34.599
<v Speaker 1>Mura Kami just was carrying that team much like Kyle

1052
00:58:34.679 --> 00:58:39.119
<v Speaker 1>Schwarber carries the Phillies and teams are starting to realize, hey,

1053
00:58:39.360 --> 00:58:41.880
<v Speaker 1>on base percentage, we're good with that, as long as

1054
00:58:41.920 --> 00:58:44.599
<v Speaker 1>he's going to get on base, hit power, hit with power.

1055
00:58:44.840 --> 00:58:47.599
<v Speaker 1>But fantasy standpoint, it becomes a little trickier because most

1056
00:58:47.599 --> 00:58:51.239
<v Speaker 1>people still playing on in batting average leagues. Bomber's going

1057
00:58:51.320 --> 00:58:53.000
<v Speaker 1>to have a low batting average. He's going to hit

1058
00:58:53.039 --> 00:58:56.559
<v Speaker 1>thirty thirty five home runs maybe more, and he's he's

1059
00:58:56.599 --> 00:58:59.760
<v Speaker 1>going to be a very good baseball player, but he's not,

1060
00:59:00.039 --> 00:59:02.239
<v Speaker 1>and he's not gonna have a high batting average at all.

1061
00:59:04.719 --> 00:59:06.119
<v Speaker 2>Fair enough, fair enough.

1062
00:59:07.239 --> 00:59:10.760
<v Speaker 1>I just wanted to make sure everybody kind of understands

1063
00:59:11.519 --> 00:59:15.599
<v Speaker 1>those kind of profiles when you're developing your fantasy team.

1064
00:59:16.519 --> 00:59:19.440
<v Speaker 1>Major League Baseball teams have done the same thing. You

1065
00:59:19.639 --> 00:59:22.039
<v Speaker 1>can't have. Well, the White Socks are trying to do it,

1066
00:59:22.719 --> 00:59:26.119
<v Speaker 1>to have at each position a three true outcome player.

1067
00:59:26.360 --> 00:59:29.679
<v Speaker 1>That's a power hitting team, and they're going for it.

1068
00:59:29.760 --> 00:59:32.920
<v Speaker 1>They're doubling down, tripling down, just everybody put a power,

1069
00:59:33.400 --> 00:59:36.159
<v Speaker 1>power bat at every position. I don't think that's going

1070
00:59:36.239 --> 00:59:39.159
<v Speaker 1>to be the trend, but I do think there is

1071
00:59:39.400 --> 00:59:45.760
<v Speaker 1>a world in which teams can throw out these guys

1072
00:59:45.840 --> 00:59:48.159
<v Speaker 1>that are power, guys that are on base percentage guy

1073
00:59:48.239 --> 00:59:50.760
<v Speaker 1>that is an ARC type that is starting to get

1074
00:59:50.800 --> 00:59:53.920
<v Speaker 1>a lot of momentum. I call them three true outcome players.

1075
00:59:54.639 --> 00:59:56.679
<v Speaker 1>But that's who it is, right and bottomber Guess what

1076
00:59:56.840 --> 00:59:57.920
<v Speaker 1>place for the White Sox.

1077
01:00:00.440 --> 01:00:03.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and you put Montgomery and Muricami. Yeah yeah, but

1078
01:00:04.159 --> 01:00:08.320
<v Speaker 2>they still have Antinaci leading off, who has a hit

1079
01:00:08.400 --> 01:00:08.960
<v Speaker 2>to him? Right?

1080
01:00:09.440 --> 01:00:09.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

1081
01:00:10.480 --> 01:00:13.480
<v Speaker 2>They've protected the big bats by having somebody who can

1082
01:00:13.559 --> 01:00:16.639
<v Speaker 2>get on base ahead of them, right. Yeah.

1083
01:00:16.719 --> 01:00:18.599
<v Speaker 1>Well, it'll be interesting to see if it works, right,

1084
01:00:18.679 --> 01:00:22.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't know if you can have that

1085
01:00:22.599 --> 01:00:25.519
<v Speaker 1>many strikeouts in a lineup going. It might work in

1086
01:00:25.599 --> 01:00:27.679
<v Speaker 1>the regular season, but if you get you know, to

1087
01:00:27.840 --> 01:00:30.960
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs where you've got really good pictures in that

1088
01:00:31.840 --> 01:00:34.039
<v Speaker 1>and you're just you know, striking out, you know, you're

1089
01:00:34.039 --> 01:00:36.960
<v Speaker 1>getting fifteen sixteen strikeouts a game from a lineup, is

1090
01:00:37.000 --> 01:00:37.599
<v Speaker 1>that gonna work?

1091
01:00:38.239 --> 01:00:43.159
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. Yeah, I don't either. I haven't a clue.

1092
01:00:43.719 --> 01:00:48.840
<v Speaker 2>Josh Adamski second basement with the Brewers, what's the scoop here?

1093
01:00:49.440 --> 01:00:53.280
<v Speaker 1>First, he's a Brewer, so you like him. High floor

1094
01:00:53.400 --> 01:00:57.519
<v Speaker 1>guy can really really hit kind of marginal power and speed.

1095
01:00:57.559 --> 01:00:59.199
<v Speaker 1>I think you'll have a little bit more power than

1096
01:00:59.239 --> 01:01:01.639
<v Speaker 1>he will speed. But he's a guy that's moved up

1097
01:01:01.679 --> 01:01:04.239
<v Speaker 1>a lot and a guy that probably had a little

1098
01:01:04.280 --> 01:01:08.519
<v Speaker 1>too too low. But it's just he's another one base

1099
01:01:08.559 --> 01:01:12.880
<v Speaker 1>percentage guy that can hit with you know, a little

1100
01:01:12.920 --> 01:01:13.400
<v Speaker 1>bit of power.

1101
01:01:15.679 --> 01:01:20.159
<v Speaker 2>Okay, sounds sounds good. Now let's look at the other

1102
01:01:20.280 --> 01:01:22.639
<v Speaker 2>side of the coin Ethan Holiday.

1103
01:01:24.239 --> 01:01:27.679
<v Speaker 1>Wow, Yeah, where do I have youth in Holiday?

1104
01:01:28.639 --> 01:01:32.559
<v Speaker 2>Do you have him at eighty nine? Yeah? Down fifty

1105
01:01:32.679 --> 01:01:34.480
<v Speaker 2>nine slots from February?

1106
01:01:37.280 --> 01:01:40.840
<v Speaker 1>No, there he is, yep? Yeah, from thirty yep. Okay,

1107
01:01:41.199 --> 01:01:45.000
<v Speaker 1>let's talk about that. So obviously brother brother of Jackson,

1108
01:01:45.800 --> 01:01:48.159
<v Speaker 1>son of Matt. You love the lineage, you get some

1109
01:01:48.519 --> 01:01:52.800
<v Speaker 1>extra extra points there, right, What the worry was when

1110
01:01:52.880 --> 01:01:56.079
<v Speaker 1>he was coming through the draft, Big kid going to

1111
01:01:56.119 --> 01:01:59.920
<v Speaker 1>be big strikeouts, going to be some power. That's kind

1112
01:01:59.920 --> 01:02:02.920
<v Speaker 1>of of what his first season has shown, striking out

1113
01:02:02.960 --> 01:02:05.480
<v Speaker 1>almost thirty percent of time. There is power, there's high

1114
01:02:05.599 --> 01:02:08.519
<v Speaker 1>end eggs of velocity. But when you throw in the

1115
01:02:08.599 --> 01:02:12.199
<v Speaker 1>Colorado Rockies into the mix, I'm sorry, Tim, I get it.

1116
01:02:12.199 --> 01:02:14.119
<v Speaker 1>I know Matt Holliday played for them, and that's where

1117
01:02:14.159 --> 01:02:17.719
<v Speaker 1>he made his name. Until they until they can develop

1118
01:02:17.880 --> 01:02:22.079
<v Speaker 1>one or two guys. I'm just I'm skeptical. I think

1119
01:02:22.159 --> 01:02:24.039
<v Speaker 1>you've got to discount those players.

1120
01:02:24.159 --> 01:02:24.679
<v Speaker 2>I just do.

1121
01:02:25.400 --> 01:02:29.840
<v Speaker 1>Charlie Condon looks like he's turned it around. But look,

1122
01:02:29.880 --> 01:02:33.800
<v Speaker 1>if you've ever watched any TV show made in Albuquerque,

1123
01:02:34.360 --> 01:02:37.639
<v Speaker 1>that's an ugly place where balls fly out right, So

1124
01:02:38.239 --> 01:02:41.760
<v Speaker 1>and that's where that's where Charlie Condon is starting to

1125
01:02:41.840 --> 01:02:44.159
<v Speaker 1>look like a major league baseball player. Is he gonna

1126
01:02:44.159 --> 01:02:46.760
<v Speaker 1>be able to handle Sliderstone in the major leagues? I

1127
01:02:46.840 --> 01:02:49.119
<v Speaker 1>don't know. I think there's big boy power. I don't

1128
01:02:49.119 --> 01:02:50.719
<v Speaker 1>know if he's going to hit. Is that going to

1129
01:02:50.760 --> 01:02:54.239
<v Speaker 1>be the same thing as Ethan Holliday. Maybe, But the

1130
01:02:54.320 --> 01:02:56.920
<v Speaker 1>fact that he plays for the Rockies, you've got to

1131
01:02:57.079 --> 01:02:58.360
<v Speaker 1>discount him. I think.

1132
01:02:58.920 --> 01:03:06.480
<v Speaker 2>Okay, enough, yeah, yeah, I have no arguments here whatsoever.

1133
01:03:08.000 --> 01:03:09.760
<v Speaker 1>I got history. If you disagree with me, and we

1134
01:03:09.840 --> 01:03:12.880
<v Speaker 1>can point to player after I just saw a del

1135
01:03:12.960 --> 01:03:16.360
<v Speaker 1>Amador get dropped in the Dynasty League. It just sads me.

1136
01:03:16.480 --> 01:03:17.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, It's like he should be dropped, right, and

1137
01:03:18.039 --> 01:03:20.960
<v Speaker 1>it's like, what the hell happened to adel Amador? I mean,

1138
01:03:21.039 --> 01:03:24.320
<v Speaker 1>it's like, where's Zach vieing? Like where are all these

1139
01:03:24.400 --> 01:03:28.079
<v Speaker 1>guys that had a chance to be something, and they

1140
01:03:28.199 --> 01:03:30.199
<v Speaker 1>get to the upper levels of the minor leagues with

1141
01:03:30.280 --> 01:03:32.360
<v Speaker 1>the Rockies and they just disappear.

1142
01:03:33.599 --> 01:03:36.840
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, who is the lives back they developed that

1143
01:03:36.960 --> 01:03:38.599
<v Speaker 2>had it was star potential to.

1144
01:03:40.559 --> 01:03:44.239
<v Speaker 1>Maybe. I mean, Goodman's been been very good, but I mean,

1145
01:03:44.440 --> 01:03:46.559
<v Speaker 1>is he a complete player? I don't think so. It's

1146
01:03:46.599 --> 01:03:52.039
<v Speaker 1>a power guy, but I mean it's it's just been disappointing.

1147
01:03:52.159 --> 01:03:54.960
<v Speaker 1>And look when he got I talked about it and

1148
01:03:55.079 --> 01:03:57.639
<v Speaker 1>Ethan Holiday got taken by the Rockies, and then I

1149
01:03:57.719 --> 01:04:00.400
<v Speaker 1>tried to convince myself, Wow, you know he's going to

1150
01:04:00.440 --> 01:04:03.039
<v Speaker 1>be really good. It's great hitting the environment, and then

1151
01:04:03.719 --> 01:04:06.480
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't matter. They get taken by the Rockies and

1152
01:04:06.599 --> 01:04:10.280
<v Speaker 1>it just you have to discount them until they prove otherwise.

1153
01:04:11.960 --> 01:04:14.840
<v Speaker 2>Totally agree. Okay, I'm going to turn it over to

1154
01:04:14.920 --> 01:04:19.559
<v Speaker 2>you and let you go on a rampage some guys

1155
01:04:19.599 --> 01:04:23.519
<v Speaker 2>that you like, say after one hundred, some guys that

1156
01:04:23.639 --> 01:04:26.519
<v Speaker 2>are are interesting to the point where where they're worthy

1157
01:04:26.559 --> 01:04:28.400
<v Speaker 2>of a discussion. Saw.

1158
01:04:29.519 --> 01:04:31.840
<v Speaker 1>I saw Caden Hunter pitch, left handed pitcher with the

1159
01:04:31.880 --> 01:04:34.440
<v Speaker 1>Baltimore Orioles. I really goosed him up. I thought he

1160
01:04:34.599 --> 01:04:37.639
<v Speaker 1>was really impressive. Left hander was up the ninety eight

1161
01:04:37.719 --> 01:04:41.000
<v Speaker 1>miles an hour. Hasn't shown great control this year, but

1162
01:04:41.159 --> 01:04:43.880
<v Speaker 1>when I saw him, he was throwing strikes and somewhat unhittable.

1163
01:04:44.480 --> 01:04:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Really like that Rowdy Rodriguez with the Angels. The Angels

1164
01:04:47.880 --> 01:04:53.079
<v Speaker 1>have a surprisingly good farm system, and Rowdy Rodriguez ore

1165
01:04:53.199 --> 01:04:57.320
<v Speaker 1>a U d I outfielder with the Angels, athletic starting

1166
01:04:57.360 --> 01:05:00.360
<v Speaker 1>to break out with some power hitting the a little bit.

1167
01:05:00.519 --> 01:05:03.800
<v Speaker 1>I goosed him up from three sixty nine to one thirteen.

1168
01:05:04.679 --> 01:05:08.639
<v Speaker 1>John Gill, shortstop with the Atlanta Braves, comes in at

1169
01:05:08.840 --> 01:05:13.360
<v Speaker 1>one sixteen, up from three twenty six. Should have had

1170
01:05:13.440 --> 01:05:17.079
<v Speaker 1>him higher entering the season. The Braves, all of a

1171
01:05:17.199 --> 01:05:21.840
<v Speaker 1>sudden have guys that that can hit. I mean they've

1172
01:05:21.920 --> 01:05:24.559
<v Speaker 1>always been focused on pitching, and all of a sudden,

1173
01:05:24.599 --> 01:05:27.320
<v Speaker 1>now they've got uh some hitters. One of the guys

1174
01:05:27.360 --> 01:05:30.559
<v Speaker 1>that we did not talk about was the guy that

1175
01:05:30.679 --> 01:05:33.000
<v Speaker 1>has probably been the biggest breakout of the season as

1176
01:05:33.239 --> 01:05:37.800
<v Speaker 1>Eric Hartman. Eric Cartman came in looking like Enrique Bradfield

1177
01:05:38.400 --> 01:05:41.519
<v Speaker 1>slashed Chandler Simpson. He was a speed guy, came in,

1178
01:05:42.199 --> 01:05:47.039
<v Speaker 1>balked up, got stronger, is now averaging you know, ninety

1179
01:05:47.079 --> 01:05:49.639
<v Speaker 1>miles an hour on his eggs of velocity with some

1180
01:05:49.840 --> 01:05:54.000
<v Speaker 1>leverage showing power created a little bit of power, you know,

1181
01:05:54.039 --> 01:05:57.480
<v Speaker 1>strikeout power for strikeouts. But that's a guy that's kind

1182
01:05:57.480 --> 01:05:59.519
<v Speaker 1>of blown up. So all of a sudden, you see

1183
01:06:00.079 --> 01:06:04.000
<v Speaker 1>the Braves kind of morphine from all they've been focused

1184
01:06:04.039 --> 01:06:07.679
<v Speaker 1>on is pitching. As the Ozzie Alsby's of the world

1185
01:06:07.800 --> 01:06:10.800
<v Speaker 1>get a little long in the tooth, they're starting to

1186
01:06:10.840 --> 01:06:13.400
<v Speaker 1>develop some of their positional guys, which is pretty interesting.

1187
01:06:13.760 --> 01:06:16.480
<v Speaker 1>And I think John John Gill is a very interesting guy.

1188
01:06:17.360 --> 01:06:19.880
<v Speaker 2>Well, and you get the Braves are digging themselves as

1189
01:06:19.880 --> 01:06:22.280
<v Speaker 2>a hole. What they created for themselves were losing all

1190
01:06:22.360 --> 01:06:25.639
<v Speaker 2>the draft picks, right, I got a few years back.

1191
01:06:25.760 --> 01:06:28.280
<v Speaker 2>But they've they've had to rebuild their farm system pretty much,

1192
01:06:28.320 --> 01:06:28.679
<v Speaker 2>haven't they.

1193
01:06:29.199 --> 01:06:33.440
<v Speaker 1>Yep, Hagen Smith. I'm not sure what happened to Hagen Smith.

1194
01:06:33.599 --> 01:06:36.239
<v Speaker 1>I probably would visit that. I see where he actually

1195
01:06:36.280 --> 01:06:40.840
<v Speaker 1>went off. He should have gone down. So here's here's

1196
01:06:40.880 --> 01:06:45.119
<v Speaker 1>a really really interesting player. Ohen Airs. I didn't think

1197
01:06:45.159 --> 01:06:47.199
<v Speaker 1>ahead of them at two hundred entering the season, but

1198
01:06:47.840 --> 01:06:52.559
<v Speaker 1>that's a guy who's twenty five twenty four catcher with

1199
01:06:52.679 --> 01:06:55.880
<v Speaker 1>the Chicago Cubs that kind of came out of nowhere

1200
01:06:56.440 --> 01:07:00.920
<v Speaker 1>and has been been fantastic, So he's definitely a late

1201
01:07:01.000 --> 01:07:06.480
<v Speaker 1>bloomer in double A interesting guy maybe for the second half.

1202
01:07:06.599 --> 01:07:10.320
<v Speaker 1>Owen Airs a y e R s Henry la Lane.

1203
01:07:10.400 --> 01:07:12.119
<v Speaker 1>You probably remember me talking about.

1204
01:07:11.880 --> 01:07:15.960
<v Speaker 3>Henry la Lane six five six foot six lefty with

1205
01:07:16.119 --> 01:07:20.239
<v Speaker 3>the Yankees. Looked like Big Can, looked like he was

1206
01:07:20.280 --> 01:07:22.519
<v Speaker 3>starting to He really had a blowout season in the

1207
01:07:22.599 --> 01:07:26.480
<v Speaker 3>Complex League. This is a perfect example of a guy

1208
01:07:26.639 --> 01:07:28.280
<v Speaker 3>that looked like he had a chance to be a

1209
01:07:28.320 --> 01:07:30.360
<v Speaker 3>future star. So I invested in him. A lot of

1210
01:07:30.400 --> 01:07:33.719
<v Speaker 3>people invested in him. And then the last two years,

1211
01:07:33.800 --> 01:07:34.920
<v Speaker 3>maybe three years.

1212
01:07:35.519 --> 01:07:40.039
<v Speaker 1>Awful, could hurt all the time, and I wrote him off.

1213
01:07:40.119 --> 01:07:41.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's just like he just wasn't putting it.

1214
01:07:42.320 --> 01:07:45.239
<v Speaker 1>Comes in this season, Timmy looking like the same guy

1215
01:07:45.559 --> 01:07:48.760
<v Speaker 1>was back in the Complex League, up back up the

1216
01:07:48.880 --> 01:07:52.800
<v Speaker 1>ninety seven miles an hour, wicked a change up. He's

1217
01:07:52.840 --> 01:07:55.400
<v Speaker 1>still in low way. I think the Yankees after the

1218
01:07:57.719 --> 01:08:00.440
<v Speaker 1>All Star break here because now all leagues going to

1219
01:08:00.480 --> 01:08:02.239
<v Speaker 1>an All Star break. There is no more All Star

1220
01:08:02.480 --> 01:08:04.280
<v Speaker 1>game in the minor leagues there used to be, which

1221
01:08:04.320 --> 01:08:06.400
<v Speaker 1>is always a lot of fun. They just have the

1222
01:08:06.480 --> 01:08:09.079
<v Speaker 1>week off. I think you will see him up in

1223
01:08:09.159 --> 01:08:11.880
<v Speaker 1>Hudson Valley and a guy that I've been telling our

1224
01:08:11.920 --> 01:08:14.639
<v Speaker 1>Patreon member, is anybody that'll listen if he's sitting on

1225
01:08:14.719 --> 01:08:16.840
<v Speaker 1>the waiver wire, you got to go get this guy.

1226
01:08:16.920 --> 01:08:21.319
<v Speaker 1>He's throwing straight. Everything is clicking for Henry L. Lane.

1227
01:08:22.840 --> 01:08:24.840
<v Speaker 1>Let me give it. I'll go a little bit deeper.

1228
01:08:25.479 --> 01:08:29.720
<v Speaker 1>See Yeah, let's get down in the two hundreds. Zach

1229
01:08:29.840 --> 01:08:35.520
<v Speaker 1>Earhart another outfield with the Dodgers. He's done nothing wrong.

1230
01:08:35.680 --> 01:08:39.199
<v Speaker 1>He's been hitting, he's been showing power. He's just buried.

1231
01:08:39.600 --> 01:08:42.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's just he's just a burry guy that's

1232
01:08:42.600 --> 01:08:46.600
<v Speaker 1>good on base percentage skills. He's got some power and speed,

1233
01:08:46.640 --> 01:08:49.000
<v Speaker 1>maybe a fifteen to fifteen kind of guy. He might

1234
01:08:49.079 --> 01:08:51.560
<v Speaker 1>get moved here at the deadline. If he does some

1235
01:08:51.760 --> 01:08:54.600
<v Speaker 1>trip away, you can immediately see him up. So put

1236
01:08:54.640 --> 01:08:58.039
<v Speaker 1>a little pin in that one for you. Camp Call

1237
01:08:58.159 --> 01:09:00.800
<v Speaker 1>you no idea what happened to camp Call? I thought

1238
01:09:00.840 --> 01:09:02.239
<v Speaker 1>he was going to be a lot better, but he

1239
01:09:02.479 --> 01:09:04.159
<v Speaker 1>just has not put it together.

1240
01:09:06.119 --> 01:09:10.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we had a question on actually that actually fits

1241
01:09:10.159 --> 01:09:12.920
<v Speaker 2>into this part of the program, and I don't I

1242
01:09:12.960 --> 01:09:15.319
<v Speaker 2>don't know if you can provide an answer. But Jerry

1243
01:09:15.439 --> 01:09:18.960
<v Speaker 2>B from the Discord saye because I know we can

1244
01:09:19.079 --> 01:09:23.319
<v Speaker 2>include all Dodgers prospects, but he I'm surprised Chase Harland

1245
01:09:23.399 --> 01:09:26.119
<v Speaker 2>didn't make the list. Happy birthday, Chase. He turned twenty

1246
01:09:26.239 --> 01:09:28.880
<v Speaker 2>today and he's put up a three hundred and four hundred,

1247
01:09:28.920 --> 01:09:32.680
<v Speaker 2>five hundred plus season. Do you know much about Chase

1248
01:09:32.720 --> 01:09:36.640
<v Speaker 2>Harlan and if so, what are your thoughts? I do.

1249
01:09:36.960 --> 01:09:40.359
<v Speaker 1>He's a really really young kid just turn Yeah, unless

1250
01:09:40.399 --> 01:09:44.640
<v Speaker 1>you say, just turned twenty years old. No speed, can

1251
01:09:44.720 --> 01:09:48.680
<v Speaker 1>hit with a little bit of power, So okay, I

1252
01:09:48.960 --> 01:09:51.640
<v Speaker 1>just have not had a chance to dig into him

1253
01:09:51.880 --> 01:09:56.960
<v Speaker 1>enough to want to rank him. So yeah, look for

1254
01:09:57.039 --> 01:09:58.640
<v Speaker 1>him in the second half that I was a guy

1255
01:09:58.760 --> 01:10:01.560
<v Speaker 1>that will probably get on the top five hundred. It's

1256
01:10:01.600 --> 01:10:04.439
<v Speaker 1>a great call out by the guy on the Discord site.

1257
01:10:04.520 --> 01:10:07.039
<v Speaker 1>Third round pick, so he's got the pedigree, but this

1258
01:10:07.199 --> 01:10:10.479
<v Speaker 1>is a typical Dodger guy. That third round pick should

1259
01:10:10.479 --> 01:10:11.319
<v Speaker 1>have probably gone higher.

1260
01:10:12.279 --> 01:10:13.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I always got I was going to say, and

1261
01:10:14.079 --> 01:10:17.720
<v Speaker 2>he would be the ninth oadfielder in that organization. Yeah,

1262
01:10:17.800 --> 01:10:21.119
<v Speaker 2>you gotta draw the line somewhere, right, You got to

1263
01:10:21.159 --> 01:10:21.399
<v Speaker 2>draw I.

1264
01:10:21.399 --> 01:10:25.359
<v Speaker 1>Mean, just can't. You can't dig into everybody, But you're right, Yeah,

1265
01:10:25.399 --> 01:10:29.039
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's definitely a good call. Good call out

1266
01:10:29.239 --> 01:10:31.000
<v Speaker 1>by the person who brings his name up.

1267
01:10:31.119 --> 01:10:35.039
<v Speaker 2>So Jerry, Yeah, okay, thanks Jerry. I'll turn it back

1268
01:10:35.079 --> 01:10:38.039
<v Speaker 2>to you now for some prospects further down the list.

1269
01:10:38.640 --> 01:10:42.439
<v Speaker 1>Uh Franklin prime era catcher with the Boston Red Sox.

1270
01:10:42.439 --> 01:10:46.479
<v Speaker 1>A guy that's really blown up, really good on basis skill,

1271
01:10:46.640 --> 01:10:48.840
<v Speaker 1>with a bit of power. Only in the Complex League,

1272
01:10:49.119 --> 01:10:50.640
<v Speaker 1>but a guy that I like a lot.

1273
01:10:50.880 --> 01:10:51.079
<v Speaker 2>There.

1274
01:10:51.880 --> 01:10:53.279
<v Speaker 1>You start to get in the two or three hundreds,

1275
01:10:53.319 --> 01:10:55.279
<v Speaker 1>you start to see guys that have fallen as well.

1276
01:10:55.880 --> 01:11:00.399
<v Speaker 1>Who's that one? Jordan Yost, Detroit Tiger shortstop, a really

1277
01:11:00.479 --> 01:11:04.760
<v Speaker 1>nice season. He's a guy that's moved up Ethan Sean Keys.

1278
01:11:04.960 --> 01:11:06.800
<v Speaker 1>I've seen him in the major leagues. I moved him

1279
01:11:06.840 --> 01:11:08.840
<v Speaker 1>up to two fifty four. Still don't know if he's

1280
01:11:08.880 --> 01:11:12.640
<v Speaker 1>going to hit enough, but obviously huge power there and

1281
01:11:13.399 --> 01:11:18.800
<v Speaker 1>starting to do something. Oh let's see that came interesting?

1282
01:11:19.359 --> 01:11:21.600
<v Speaker 1>Chris Swarrow. I just saw a couple of weeks ago,

1283
01:11:22.680 --> 01:11:25.520
<v Speaker 1>and was it hya or it was high? It was

1284
01:11:25.520 --> 01:11:27.760
<v Speaker 1>a double A. I think it was double A. He's

1285
01:11:27.760 --> 01:11:30.600
<v Speaker 1>another catcher that's got speed, so you would like this.

1286
01:11:32.159 --> 01:11:34.399
<v Speaker 1>I think it was only a ten thousand dollars sign too,

1287
01:11:34.560 --> 01:11:37.399
<v Speaker 1>So you kind of root for those guys. Interesting kid

1288
01:11:37.520 --> 01:11:40.119
<v Speaker 1>that played well on Hya another really good season in

1289
01:11:40.239 --> 01:11:42.960
<v Speaker 1>double A. Doesn't get a lot of love in deeper

1290
01:11:43.039 --> 01:11:43.840
<v Speaker 1>dynasty leagues.

1291
01:11:43.880 --> 01:11:47.920
<v Speaker 2>But a guy there and where he's right on your life.

1292
01:11:48.760 --> 01:11:52.039
<v Speaker 1>He's what on he's down at number two ninety one.

1293
01:11:52.920 --> 01:11:56.760
<v Speaker 2>Okay, dang get and let's see.

1294
01:11:56.840 --> 01:11:59.880
<v Speaker 1>Let me give you one more guy. How about Eric

1295
01:12:00.359 --> 01:12:05.000
<v Speaker 1>but Tanti That was a guy brought up today earlier.

1296
01:12:05.159 --> 01:12:08.319
<v Speaker 1>Again huge huge power. He's gonna swing Amiss a lot.

1297
01:12:09.600 --> 01:12:12.800
<v Speaker 1>And there's tons of walks there. So again Milwaukee Brewer,

1298
01:12:12.880 --> 01:12:16.119
<v Speaker 1>first baseman, very anti, Milwaukee Brewer guy.

1299
01:12:18.279 --> 01:12:21.279
<v Speaker 2>Okay, do you have time for one other question from

1300
01:12:21.359 --> 01:12:22.159
<v Speaker 2>the discord site?

1301
01:12:22.760 --> 01:12:23.159
<v Speaker 1>Of course?

1302
01:12:24.600 --> 01:12:28.880
<v Speaker 2>Okay. Don wants to know. He's curious about the big

1303
01:12:29.079 --> 01:12:34.079
<v Speaker 2>drop for Grissino. Is it just the injury or are

1304
01:12:34.159 --> 01:12:37.520
<v Speaker 2>there other drivers? And he says mostly flat per Fromelo

1305
01:12:38.359 --> 01:12:40.319
<v Speaker 2>and he's having a better year with more pop and

1306
01:12:40.439 --> 01:12:42.520
<v Speaker 2>he thoughts there there's a couple of questions from Don.

1307
01:12:43.439 --> 01:12:46.920
<v Speaker 1>Prisina was simply because he hasn't played. I mean, he

1308
01:12:46.960 --> 01:12:49.199
<v Speaker 1>could pop back up, and he dropped. I guess he

1309
01:12:49.319 --> 01:12:52.920
<v Speaker 1>dropped twenty seven, so that's that's fair. But I mean

1310
01:12:53.000 --> 01:12:56.960
<v Speaker 1>he just literally started playing a couple of weeks ago.

1311
01:12:57.560 --> 01:13:00.399
<v Speaker 1>I mean I made the comment on Sebastian wall Cod

1312
01:13:00.439 --> 01:13:03.720
<v Speaker 1>and a Miller why drop them? But I really goosed

1313
01:13:03.800 --> 01:13:08.119
<v Speaker 1>up Risino up to twenty two and and maybe had

1314
01:13:08.199 --> 01:13:11.079
<v Speaker 1>them a little too high going into the season. So

1315
01:13:11.239 --> 01:13:15.600
<v Speaker 1>there's a little correction there. Okay, But I dropped him

1316
01:13:15.640 --> 01:13:18.640
<v Speaker 1>just because he hasn't played. But I top fifty guy,

1317
01:13:18.640 --> 01:13:21.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's still a top fifty guy. That's pretty good. Yeah,

1318
01:13:21.720 --> 01:13:24.560
<v Speaker 1>and Formella for Mella's had a great season. That's probably

1319
01:13:24.560 --> 01:13:27.760
<v Speaker 1>a good call. Why isn't he a little bit higher? Yeah?

1320
01:13:27.800 --> 01:13:28.720
<v Speaker 1>He probably should be.

1321
01:13:30.720 --> 01:13:35.479
<v Speaker 2>Okay, super Thanks Thanks for your question, don greatly appreciated,

1322
01:13:35.800 --> 01:13:40.800
<v Speaker 2>and back to you Rich for some further thoughts. If

1323
01:13:40.880 --> 01:13:45.319
<v Speaker 2>you have me, I think I'm exhausted. I'm exhausted. Let's

1324
01:13:45.399 --> 01:13:48.199
<v Speaker 2>just tell you absorb the number, sheer numbers and weight

1325
01:13:48.319 --> 01:13:49.479
<v Speaker 2>of this project and.

1326
01:13:49.520 --> 01:13:51.159
<v Speaker 1>Let's let us let's take a final break, come back,

1327
01:13:51.199 --> 01:13:52.239
<v Speaker 1>and I'll try to wrap this up.

1328
01:13:53.399 --> 01:13:53.760
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

1329
01:14:06.960 --> 01:14:12.199
<v Speaker 1>Josh Hammond, Yes, short stop with the Kansas City Arroyos

1330
01:14:13.439 --> 01:14:18.680
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty type of upside the second round pick last year.

1331
01:14:18.760 --> 01:14:20.319
<v Speaker 1>I didn't think a ton of them. I think I

1332
01:14:20.359 --> 01:14:22.600
<v Speaker 1>had him ranked two fifty six. Well, I know I

1333
01:14:22.600 --> 01:14:26.640
<v Speaker 1>had him ranked. I'm just looking at it. The guys

1334
01:14:26.840 --> 01:14:29.680
<v Speaker 1>who stepped up and another guy that was I think

1335
01:14:29.760 --> 01:14:31.960
<v Speaker 1>a second or first round pick was the was the

1336
01:14:32.119 --> 01:14:35.920
<v Speaker 1>Mets Matt Mitch Woite. I think it's Mitch vo it T.

1337
01:14:36.800 --> 01:14:40.760
<v Speaker 1>When I was doing my tour last week down in Maryland,

1338
01:14:41.520 --> 01:14:42.960
<v Speaker 1>I got a chance to watch him in a couple

1339
01:14:43.000 --> 01:14:46.560
<v Speaker 1>of games against the Orioles high A system. Really liked

1340
01:14:46.640 --> 01:14:50.479
<v Speaker 1>that guy, really athletic, good speed, hitting at the top

1341
01:14:50.560 --> 01:14:53.600
<v Speaker 1>of the lineup. The ball really exploded off his bat,

1342
01:14:53.960 --> 01:14:55.399
<v Speaker 1>So I moved him up as well.

1343
01:14:55.680 --> 01:14:59.279
<v Speaker 2>And I don't know, I'm just looking at the profile

1344
01:14:59.680 --> 01:15:03.039
<v Speaker 2>sneak upside that that should have our attention.

1345
01:15:03.760 --> 01:15:07.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and then guys like Jonah Toong, I mean, he's

1346
01:15:07.840 --> 01:15:10.960
<v Speaker 1>really really struggling. It's it's Ah And I don't I

1347
01:15:11.039 --> 01:15:12.920
<v Speaker 1>don't want to say I told you so, because I

1348
01:15:13.000 --> 01:15:15.079
<v Speaker 1>did rank him at twenty six, But I was really

1349
01:15:15.159 --> 01:15:18.399
<v Speaker 1>concerned about Jonah Tong entering this season. He doesn't have

1350
01:15:18.479 --> 01:15:21.640
<v Speaker 1>a breaking pitch, and look, if you don't have something,

1351
01:15:21.680 --> 01:15:23.199
<v Speaker 1>you don't have a breaking pitch, you don't have a

1352
01:15:24.079 --> 01:15:27.960
<v Speaker 1>ball that you can use against glove side batters. You

1353
01:15:28.039 --> 01:15:31.239
<v Speaker 1>don't throw hard, I got problems.

1354
01:15:31.520 --> 01:15:34.319
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, and justifiably so. Yeah.

1355
01:15:34.680 --> 01:15:38.079
<v Speaker 1>Jonah Jonah Toong's a little guy that throws harder than

1356
01:15:38.199 --> 01:15:40.960
<v Speaker 1>his body probably should allow him. He's got a great

1357
01:15:41.079 --> 01:15:44.920
<v Speaker 1>change up, but he has no breaking pitch. I don't know.

1358
01:15:45.840 --> 01:15:49.000
<v Speaker 1>It's a tough, tough, tough one for me. I dropped

1359
01:15:49.079 --> 01:15:53.000
<v Speaker 1>him down to eighty four. He's still going down. Uh

1360
01:15:53.680 --> 01:15:56.520
<v Speaker 1>Avy Arquette, that got him down from sixty five to

1361
01:15:56.720 --> 01:16:00.560
<v Speaker 1>ninety two. Miami Marlins. We could talk with the Miami

1362
01:16:00.640 --> 01:16:05.319
<v Speaker 1>Marlins almost in the same light as we do the

1363
01:16:05.399 --> 01:16:10.039
<v Speaker 1>Colorado Rockies. At least the Marlins developed pitching. In fact,

1364
01:16:10.079 --> 01:16:13.479
<v Speaker 1>they developed extremely well what's the last hitter that the

1365
01:16:13.560 --> 01:16:17.359
<v Speaker 1>Marlins have developed? And that's just another situation that it's very,

1366
01:16:17.520 --> 01:16:20.159
<v Speaker 1>very challenging. And I mean.

1367
01:16:20.560 --> 01:16:25.279
<v Speaker 4>Carlos Stanton and the guy with the Brewers now, oh

1368
01:16:25.880 --> 01:16:28.720
<v Speaker 4>you know, you know I'm talking about Christian Yeah, yeah,

1369
01:16:29.439 --> 01:16:32.039
<v Speaker 4>I mean that they were great when they're the Marlins,

1370
01:16:32.079 --> 01:16:35.319
<v Speaker 4>and but that was two administrations ago, right, So there's

1371
01:16:35.319 --> 01:16:36.760
<v Speaker 4>a whole new crew down there, and they're just so

1372
01:16:37.000 --> 01:16:40.560
<v Speaker 4>terrible at developing guys one guy that I haven't given

1373
01:16:40.640 --> 01:16:41.319
<v Speaker 4>up one as well.

1374
01:16:41.359 --> 01:16:44.359
<v Speaker 1>In Francesca. If you take a look at his stat line,

1375
01:16:44.399 --> 01:16:47.680
<v Speaker 1>it's terrible. I still believed him.

1376
01:16:50.000 --> 01:16:53.199
<v Speaker 2>Hey, you're a man of conviction. Nothing wrong with that.

1377
01:16:53.800 --> 01:16:56.479
<v Speaker 1>I still believe. I also still believe in Jefferson Quaro,

1378
01:16:56.600 --> 01:16:58.319
<v Speaker 1>even though I dropped them a little bit, that I

1379
01:16:58.359 --> 01:17:01.880
<v Speaker 1>can hit man. I yeah, I just I don't have

1380
01:17:01.960 --> 01:17:04.800
<v Speaker 1>to tell you. So I guess to conclude. One of

1381
01:17:04.840 --> 01:17:07.520
<v Speaker 1>the things that in just going through this exercise, and

1382
01:17:07.720 --> 01:17:10.720
<v Speaker 1>I brought it up at the top of the podcast.

1383
01:17:12.119 --> 01:17:15.560
<v Speaker 1>If if you're in Chicago and you hate the Milwaukee

1384
01:17:15.680 --> 01:17:18.960
<v Speaker 1>Brewers because you you uh, you refuse to put them

1385
01:17:19.199 --> 01:17:23.560
<v Speaker 1>on your on your fantasy squad because of the Milwaukee Brewers,

1386
01:17:23.640 --> 01:17:26.000
<v Speaker 1>you're making a big mistake. You need to you need

1387
01:17:26.079 --> 01:17:29.520
<v Speaker 1>to swallow it and move on from that. And the

1388
01:17:29.640 --> 01:17:31.920
<v Speaker 1>same with the Dodgers. If you're a Padres fan and

1389
01:17:32.000 --> 01:17:35.920
<v Speaker 1>hate the Dodgers because of Dodgers, you're making a big mistake.

1390
01:17:35.960 --> 01:17:39.239
<v Speaker 1>I mean, they're They're What my analysis have shown is

1391
01:17:39.279 --> 01:17:43.079
<v Speaker 1>there are a handful of teams that have They've got

1392
01:17:43.199 --> 01:17:47.880
<v Speaker 1>some really really interesting players and really deep systems. And

1393
01:17:49.119 --> 01:17:51.560
<v Speaker 1>the Pirates are right up there as well.

1394
01:17:51.960 --> 01:17:54.560
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, you know you were saying earlier that what

1395
01:17:54.720 --> 01:17:58.880
<v Speaker 2>those three teams, the three teams you mentioned have something

1396
01:17:59.000 --> 01:18:00.159
<v Speaker 2>like fifteen percent.

1397
01:18:02.960 --> 01:18:07.359
<v Speaker 1>And sixty percent of the top five hundred, twenty five

1398
01:18:07.359 --> 01:18:10.079
<v Speaker 1>percent of the fifty percent of the top five hundred

1399
01:18:10.159 --> 01:18:12.640
<v Speaker 1>twenty five percent of the top one hundred.

1400
01:18:14.079 --> 01:18:19.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah. If you're ignoring that because of your quotation

1401
01:18:19.399 --> 01:18:23.000
<v Speaker 2>marks love for the game, yeah, you're missing opportunities.

1402
01:18:23.479 --> 01:18:26.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and you just you need to swallow it or

1403
01:18:26.119 --> 01:18:31.279
<v Speaker 1>find a different hobby because they're I mean, the Brewers

1404
01:18:31.319 --> 01:18:35.439
<v Speaker 1>in particular are because I've met a lot of Brewers

1405
01:18:35.600 --> 01:18:38.760
<v Speaker 1>bress and it's interesting because the Brewers are becoming the

1406
01:18:38.840 --> 01:18:42.479
<v Speaker 1>farm system from the scouting and analytics rank for the

1407
01:18:42.560 --> 01:18:44.520
<v Speaker 1>rest of Major League Baseball. That's the one thing that

1408
01:18:44.800 --> 01:18:47.359
<v Speaker 1>no one talks about. But like you're you're out of

1409
01:18:47.479 --> 01:18:49.359
<v Speaker 1>the you know, you're out of the game. And you

1410
01:18:49.479 --> 01:18:51.960
<v Speaker 1>see guy with the Kancity Royal shirt on, I go,

1411
01:18:52.199 --> 01:18:56.039
<v Speaker 1>I thought you worked for the Brewers. I got I

1412
01:18:56.159 --> 01:18:58.560
<v Speaker 1>signed on with the with the Royals because they paid

1413
01:18:58.560 --> 01:19:01.039
<v Speaker 1>me more money or filling the blank. And they're all

1414
01:19:01.119 --> 01:19:05.000
<v Speaker 1>over the place because the Brewers have a way, particularly

1415
01:19:05.000 --> 01:19:08.119
<v Speaker 1>in the international ranks, of looking at players a little

1416
01:19:08.119 --> 01:19:13.079
<v Speaker 1>bit different. And I stress this because those are the players,

1417
01:19:13.159 --> 01:19:16.239
<v Speaker 1>particularly in dynasty leagues. That's where you should be mining

1418
01:19:16.279 --> 01:19:17.760
<v Speaker 1>from it. And if all of a sudden you've got

1419
01:19:18.279 --> 01:19:21.520
<v Speaker 1>six or your twenty five minor league slots are taking

1420
01:19:21.680 --> 01:19:29.479
<v Speaker 1>up with Brewers, that's okay, because yeah, and I have

1421
01:19:30.399 --> 01:19:34.279
<v Speaker 1>just stopped worrying about playing time. I worry about playing time,

1422
01:19:34.279 --> 01:19:36.439
<v Speaker 1>and they're in triple A I don't worry about playing

1423
01:19:36.560 --> 01:19:38.800
<v Speaker 1>time and double A high, I just don't. I mean,

1424
01:19:38.800 --> 01:19:41.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm looking for the player with the tools, the player

1425
01:19:41.319 --> 01:19:42.800
<v Speaker 1>I think that are going to be able to develop,

1426
01:19:42.880 --> 01:19:45.680
<v Speaker 1>to be able to hit. And I'm going to make

1427
01:19:45.720 --> 01:19:48.000
<v Speaker 1>the assumption, maybe it's naive, but I'm going to make

1428
01:19:48.039 --> 01:19:52.239
<v Speaker 1>the assumption that somehow good players will rise to the

1429
01:19:52.359 --> 01:19:55.399
<v Speaker 1>top and get the opportunities, and for the most part

1430
01:19:56.119 --> 01:19:56.840
<v Speaker 1>that happens.

1431
01:19:57.680 --> 01:20:01.880
<v Speaker 2>That's truism. Yeah. I for me, Hey, old habits die

1432
01:20:01.960 --> 01:20:06.159
<v Speaker 2>hard and I'm looking. I'll always look for opportunities, especially

1433
01:20:06.279 --> 01:20:08.880
<v Speaker 2>prior to call ups. That to me is important. But

1434
01:20:09.000 --> 01:20:11.760
<v Speaker 2>that's just a game I play. That's not the real game.

1435
01:20:11.880 --> 01:20:15.119
<v Speaker 2>That's our game, and it can be very very different

1436
01:20:15.159 --> 01:20:15.760
<v Speaker 2>from the real one.

1437
01:20:15.840 --> 01:20:19.439
<v Speaker 1>Can it just gonna go to the to the Brewers

1438
01:20:19.479 --> 01:20:23.680
<v Speaker 1>real quickly? Ricky Money Mony's m o n e Ys

1439
01:20:24.000 --> 01:20:29.079
<v Speaker 1>ranked twot eighty, first time on the list. Just shoving

1440
01:20:29.159 --> 01:20:31.479
<v Speaker 1>at this season. I mean, it's in the DSL. He

1441
01:20:31.640 --> 01:20:36.159
<v Speaker 1>looks like the real guy Brady Abel whose brother's being drafted.

1442
01:20:36.159 --> 01:20:38.520
<v Speaker 1>I think he actually might go higher than Brady Ebel did.

1443
01:20:38.840 --> 01:20:41.560
<v Speaker 1>It was their second round pick last year. Looks fantastic.

1444
01:20:42.119 --> 01:20:45.399
<v Speaker 1>He's at three or three new ones to the list.

1445
01:20:45.880 --> 01:20:50.159
<v Speaker 1>Juan Martinez, another guy, another young kid, seventeen eight year

1446
01:20:50.159 --> 01:20:52.159
<v Speaker 1>Oldkult doing the exact same thing. It just goes on

1447
01:20:52.920 --> 01:20:55.920
<v Speaker 1>and on and on. I mean, it's just remarkable what

1448
01:20:56.039 --> 01:20:58.119
<v Speaker 1>the Brewers are doing well.

1449
01:20:58.199 --> 01:21:03.720
<v Speaker 2>And you see the success of Churio okay, and you

1450
01:21:03.840 --> 01:21:08.279
<v Speaker 2>see Jesus Miday barely outed diapers at double A. You

1451
01:21:08.359 --> 01:21:12.479
<v Speaker 2>know who we will see probably next year. Okay. When

1452
01:21:12.520 --> 01:21:16.760
<v Speaker 2>you look at the success that they've had, yeah, you

1453
01:21:16.880 --> 01:21:20.199
<v Speaker 2>can't ignore or what by that. You have to look

1454
01:21:20.239 --> 01:21:20.479
<v Speaker 2>at it.

1455
01:21:20.880 --> 01:21:22.479
<v Speaker 1>Let me talk about the Let me talk about the

1456
01:21:22.560 --> 01:21:25.920
<v Speaker 1>best of the bunch, and that is Alexander Freeze fr

1457
01:21:26.199 --> 01:21:31.439
<v Speaker 1>Ias eighteen year old kid that if you're looking for

1458
01:21:31.520 --> 01:21:37.039
<v Speaker 1>the next Jesus my Day Jackson Cheerio following in that footsteps,

1459
01:21:37.279 --> 01:21:39.800
<v Speaker 1>it is hitting. I've got him at sixty eight. I

1460
01:21:39.880 --> 01:21:44.920
<v Speaker 1>think it's the first time he's been ranked. Just already

1461
01:21:45.000 --> 01:21:47.880
<v Speaker 1>and started off in the Complex League, hit four forty

1462
01:21:47.960 --> 01:21:52.079
<v Speaker 1>one and thirty two games. Moves to Hi a excuse

1463
01:21:52.119 --> 01:21:55.359
<v Speaker 1>he moves to low A after thirteen games. Already got

1464
01:21:55.359 --> 01:21:58.319
<v Speaker 1>a harm run, five stolen basis hitting two fifty, so

1465
01:21:58.520 --> 01:22:00.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean he's flatten out a little bit. This is

1466
01:22:00.880 --> 01:22:03.760
<v Speaker 1>a guy with all tooled up. Looks like he can

1467
01:22:03.880 --> 01:22:07.680
<v Speaker 1>hit even in hot in low way a seventeen percent

1468
01:22:07.720 --> 01:22:12.439

1480
01:22:50.119 --> 01:22:53.279
<v Speaker 1>daily notes were a little light this week as I

1481
01:22:53.439 --> 01:22:55.479
<v Speaker 1>was finishing this stuff up, and I promise to get

1482
01:22:55.479 --> 01:22:58.880
<v Speaker 1>it till on Wednesday. Wound up on Thursday about noon.

1483
01:22:59.000 --> 01:23:01.560
<v Speaker 1>I got it out, but I just I wanted to

1484
01:23:01.600 --> 01:23:05.039
<v Speaker 1>get it done right. And look, I appreciate everybody's feedback

1485
01:23:05.159 --> 01:23:08.680
<v Speaker 1>so far. It is a it is a list, a

1486
01:23:08.840 --> 01:23:11.720
<v Speaker 1>living list, so it's one that will constantly be updated.

1487
01:23:11.800 --> 01:23:14.840
<v Speaker 1>But the next update will be shortly after the draft,

1488
01:23:14.920 --> 01:23:16.800
<v Speaker 1>so I'm already going to come up with an update

1489
01:23:16.960 --> 01:23:21.479
<v Speaker 1>with the players that were drafted slotted in, So look

1490
01:23:21.600 --> 01:23:22.199
<v Speaker 1>forward to that.

1491
01:23:22.840 --> 01:23:26.720
<v Speaker 2>Yep, sounds sounds good. Do you want to close with

1492
01:23:26.800 --> 01:23:28.960
<v Speaker 2>my waiver wire fixer?

1493
01:23:29.239 --> 01:23:32.439
<v Speaker 1>You want to pass on that one's give me a hitter.

1494
01:23:32.279 --> 01:23:37.920
<v Speaker 2>Give me a picture, Okay, I you're you're gonna like

1495
01:23:38.039 --> 01:23:42.600
<v Speaker 2>this because the hitter that I am recommending for this

1496
01:23:42.880 --> 01:23:46.560
<v Speaker 2>week major top one hundred list.

1497
01:23:47.000 --> 01:23:49.239
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, because I was about to say if if he's

1498
01:23:49.560 --> 01:23:51.920
<v Speaker 1>if he's older than eighteen, I probably don't. I don't

1499
01:23:51.920 --> 01:23:53.640
<v Speaker 1>know what you're talking about, because that's all I've been

1500
01:23:53.680 --> 01:23:55.840
<v Speaker 1>spending my time on is looking at children.

1501
01:23:56.000 --> 01:24:04.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm going with your number eighty ranked prospect who

1502
01:24:04.640 --> 01:24:08.680
<v Speaker 2>jumped up seventy three points in Hector Rodriguez.

1503
01:24:09.279 --> 01:24:10.840
<v Speaker 1>Oh, I love how Hector Rodriguez.

1504
01:24:10.920 --> 01:24:14.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I God call me foolish, but he's making

1505
01:24:14.439 --> 01:24:16.560
<v Speaker 2>my waiverware this week. And I think we see how

1506
01:24:16.640 --> 01:24:22.439
<v Speaker 2>Hector Rodriguez shortly after the break. Okay, he's hitting for

1507
01:24:22.520 --> 01:24:26.239
<v Speaker 2>a ton of power. There's an opportunity in Cincinnati. I

1508
01:24:26.840 --> 01:24:30.239
<v Speaker 2>just think we're going to see Hector Rodriguez soon. Any

1509
01:24:30.319 --> 01:24:31.119
<v Speaker 2>elaboration on.

1510
01:24:31.199 --> 01:24:35.039
<v Speaker 1>My Yeah, he's had a really good season. He's a

1511
01:24:35.119 --> 01:24:38.159
<v Speaker 1>guy that has always been told up. He's never walked.

1512
01:24:38.159 --> 01:24:41.399
<v Speaker 1>He swings at everything. This year's actually sporting. Last I

1513
01:24:41.479 --> 01:24:43.760
<v Speaker 1>looked like a nine or ten percent walk rate, which

1514
01:24:43.800 --> 01:24:46.439
<v Speaker 1>is actually bleak average. I don't know if it's just

1515
01:24:46.520 --> 01:24:49.640
<v Speaker 1>a small sample size. He is still pretty aggressive at

1516
01:24:49.680 --> 01:24:55.920
<v Speaker 1>the plate, and he's very very young, so you know,

1517
01:24:56.039 --> 01:24:58.479
<v Speaker 1>but kids are coming up younger and younger. But that

1518
01:24:58.520 --> 01:25:02.640
<v Speaker 1>would be my only two worries because that's all I

1519
01:25:02.720 --> 01:25:05.600
<v Speaker 1>do is worry. I mean, otherwise they all but I

1520
01:25:05.680 --> 01:25:08.039
<v Speaker 1>mean my worry is is he going to hit it up?

1521
01:25:08.359 --> 01:25:10.880
<v Speaker 1>Hit it up? Because he's so aggressive and too he's awfully,

1522
01:25:10.920 --> 01:25:11.520
<v Speaker 1>awfully young.

1523
01:25:12.359 --> 01:25:15.560
<v Speaker 2>Mm hmm, Okay, that's my hitter. My picture is a

1524
01:25:15.720 --> 01:25:20.960
<v Speaker 2>blast from the past that has started the rehab process.

1525
01:25:21.079 --> 01:25:23.880
<v Speaker 2>He's got one game under his belt. You're probably looking

1526
01:25:24.000 --> 01:25:30.880
<v Speaker 2>at You're probably looking at I'll say second week of August.

1527
01:25:31.680 --> 01:25:35.880
<v Speaker 2>But don't let Jackson Joe. Don't let him if you

1528
01:25:36.000 --> 01:25:38.079
<v Speaker 2>got if you got room, find a spot for him.

1529
01:25:38.680 --> 01:25:40.760
<v Speaker 1>That's that's a good call for I had forgotten that

1530
01:25:40.840 --> 01:25:42.840
<v Speaker 1>he's getting close to return effect. I think he's had

1531
01:25:42.840 --> 01:25:46.199
<v Speaker 1>a couple of rehab starts, so good. How's he done?

1532
01:25:46.239 --> 01:25:46.920
<v Speaker 1>You haven't checked.

1533
01:25:48.000 --> 01:25:50.039
<v Speaker 2>I think he's only got one start done. He allowed

1534
01:25:50.039 --> 01:25:53.079
<v Speaker 2>and earned run. Uh when a knitting in a bit,

1535
01:25:53.159 --> 01:25:57.199
<v Speaker 2>the velocity was very close to triple digits, if not

1536
01:25:57.439 --> 01:26:00.760
<v Speaker 2>at triple digits, So you got to like that. Abe,

1537
01:26:00.920 --> 01:26:04.920
<v Speaker 2>there's definitely concerns, but let's face the odds or high

1538
01:26:04.920 --> 01:26:09.199
<v Speaker 2>they're going to move Scooble and the timing of Schooble

1539
01:26:09.520 --> 01:26:12.039
<v Speaker 2>and Drove being ready seems to sort of fit.

1540
01:26:13.600 --> 01:26:15.399
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's a shame that Joe got hurt because it

1541
01:26:15.399 --> 01:26:17.760
<v Speaker 1>would have been pretty phenomenal have both of those guys,

1542
01:26:17.800 --> 01:26:20.680
<v Speaker 1>along with the much improved Casey Mice. I wonder if

1543
01:26:20.720 --> 01:26:21.199
<v Speaker 1>he gets.

1544
01:26:23.159 --> 01:26:25.840
<v Speaker 2>Hey. I don't think you can rule anything out when

1545
01:26:25.880 --> 01:26:28.279
<v Speaker 2>it comes to the Tigers, they could get their an

1546
01:26:28.560 --> 01:26:32.319
<v Speaker 2>entire bullpen and the Mets. Those are those two teams. Yeah,

1547
01:26:34.000 --> 01:26:39.560
<v Speaker 2>all's fair in love and baseball. They there could be

1548
01:26:39.720 --> 01:26:41.960
<v Speaker 2>and should be a slew of players moved from those

1549
01:26:42.039 --> 01:26:42.560
<v Speaker 2>two teams.

1550
01:26:43.239 --> 01:26:46.479
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. One thing I have been watching and like shock

1551
01:26:46.720 --> 01:26:48.640
<v Speaker 1>is how well the Red Sox have played. I mean,

1552
01:26:48.640 --> 01:26:51.880
<v Speaker 1>they're they're almost editing. There are only three games out

1553
01:26:51.920 --> 01:26:52.920
<v Speaker 1>of the wild card spot.

1554
01:26:54.239 --> 01:26:58.319
<v Speaker 2>Well yeah, and stories coming back that's not going to

1555
01:26:58.439 --> 01:27:07.479
<v Speaker 2>hurt their cause. And Bennett is just pitching. It might good,

1556
01:27:10.119 --> 01:27:12.439
<v Speaker 2>good point, but I can't get over how well Ben

1557
01:27:12.520 --> 01:27:13.000
<v Speaker 2>it's pitching.

1558
01:27:13.520 --> 01:27:14.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he's amazing that floor.

1559
01:27:15.479 --> 01:27:18.319
<v Speaker 2>I just tossed the dart there for the most part

1560
01:27:18.399 --> 01:27:21.960
<v Speaker 2>in the hopes that you know, not so much the blood,

1561
01:27:22.000 --> 01:27:27.000
<v Speaker 2>the extension and the control. And I picked him up

1562
01:27:27.079 --> 01:27:30.159
<v Speaker 2>cheap everywhere. And I'm smiling on both sides of my

1563
01:27:30.239 --> 01:27:33.720
<v Speaker 2>face about that pickup. That's it's a good coffee.

1564
01:27:34.159 --> 01:27:37.039
<v Speaker 1>I wrote about him because he got traded for a

1565
01:27:37.319 --> 01:27:40.439
<v Speaker 1>prominent prospect and it looked like who did he get.

1566
01:27:42.000 --> 01:27:42.199
<v Speaker 2>It was?

1567
01:27:44.000 --> 01:27:47.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, might have been Yeah, so so prolyss has got

1568
01:27:47.560 --> 01:27:52.800
<v Speaker 1>the obviously the high end velocity, and they basically move

1569
01:27:52.840 --> 01:27:55.680
<v Speaker 1>because they thought he was a bullpen arm and prolesse

1570
01:27:55.760 --> 01:27:58.880
<v Speaker 1>had Tommy John surgery or pre surgery. I get a

1571
01:27:58.960 --> 01:28:03.960
<v Speaker 1>mixed up. He's back now, he's looking great, but it's

1572
01:28:03.960 --> 01:28:05.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna be tough to catch Bennett at this juncture.

1573
01:28:07.000 --> 01:28:11.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, just just good stuff. Every once in a while,

1574
01:28:12.079 --> 01:28:14.439
<v Speaker 2>you just find one of those pictures out of nowhere,

1575
01:28:14.520 --> 01:28:18.079
<v Speaker 2>and jumping in early does paid dividends.

1576
01:28:18.680 --> 01:28:23.600
<v Speaker 1>So job looks like he threw thirty two pitches, fastball

1577
01:28:23.640 --> 01:28:26.760
<v Speaker 1>average ninety eight point eight, max at at one hundred

1578
01:28:26.760 --> 01:28:29.880
<v Speaker 1>point two. He didn't throw enough secondaries to really get

1579
01:28:29.960 --> 01:28:34.279
<v Speaker 1>a sense for anything, but I mean through hard.

1580
01:28:35.039 --> 01:28:38.880
<v Speaker 2>So nothing's wrong with the arm at least, no, no,

1581
01:28:39.119 --> 01:28:41.159
<v Speaker 2>nothing of the elbows intact A good thing.

1582
01:28:41.880 --> 01:28:43.800
<v Speaker 1>That's a good thing. That is a wrap to me.

1583
01:28:43.880 --> 01:28:46.279
<v Speaker 1>Thanks for helping me with this when an hour and

1584
01:28:46.319 --> 01:28:48.479
<v Speaker 1>a half. I appreciate you hanging in there with me,

1585
01:28:48.760 --> 01:28:49.439
<v Speaker 1>because when I.

1586
01:28:49.479 --> 01:28:53.680
<v Speaker 2>Get to talking my pleisure, my pleasure, rich I could.

1587
01:28:53.600 --> 01:28:56.479
<v Speaker 1>Talk all day about this crap. I mean, I just

1588
01:28:57.399 --> 01:28:59.680
<v Speaker 1>that's all I know. I mean, I just I just

1589
01:28:59.760 --> 01:29:01.720
<v Speaker 1>go on and on about that's what I do, all

1590
01:29:01.760 --> 01:29:04.119
<v Speaker 1>on on about these players. And it was it was

1591
01:29:04.199 --> 01:29:07.359
<v Speaker 1>a great exercise, a fun exercise. And again, I I

1592
01:29:07.520 --> 01:29:09.840
<v Speaker 1>know we pip out the patrons, but that's where Tim

1593
01:29:09.880 --> 01:29:13.800
<v Speaker 1>and I are monetizing our work, and I just encourage

1594
01:29:13.800 --> 01:29:16.000
<v Speaker 1>you to come out there. It's it's a good crew.

1595
01:29:16.720 --> 01:29:18.720
<v Speaker 1>I think the content we put out there is great.

1596
01:29:18.880 --> 01:29:20.800
<v Speaker 1>I go out to the Discord site a little bit.

1597
01:29:21.199 --> 01:29:23.680
<v Speaker 1>TAM's always out there and it's it's fun. I think

1598
01:29:23.760 --> 01:29:26.439
<v Speaker 1>TAM's got the fun aspect of of the role I got.

1599
01:29:26.560 --> 01:29:29.760
<v Speaker 1>I got to pump out content, but that's that's the

1600
01:29:29.800 --> 01:29:30.239
<v Speaker 1>way I got.

1601
01:29:30.239 --> 01:29:32.359
<v Speaker 2>I got. I've got to I've got the easy job

1602
01:29:32.399 --> 01:29:35.399
<v Speaker 2>because I don't have too much trouble with fun rights.

1603
01:29:36.439 --> 01:29:38.319
<v Speaker 2>That's sort of in my middle name. But no, it's

1604
01:29:38.399 --> 01:29:42.600
<v Speaker 2>a great group, a very knowledgeable group, and it's nice

1605
01:29:42.640 --> 01:29:46.640
<v Speaker 2>to see the level of participation. The only start comes

1606
01:29:46.720 --> 01:29:49.640
<v Speaker 2>from me and it's directed directed to teams and players

1607
01:29:49.680 --> 01:29:53.920
<v Speaker 2>and it's it's just a good, solid group of participants

1608
01:29:54.039 --> 01:29:56.399
<v Speaker 2>that lay love the game and have a lot of

1609
01:29:56.479 --> 01:29:59.720
