Got a turn? It should rap bo podcast.

11
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, welcome back into the raft Ball Fantasy Baseball podcast.

12
00:01:13,519 --> 00:01:17,879
I am beat on across from me a tradition unlike

13
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,439
any other, thestletoria himself?

14
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,519
Speaker 3: Right? Is that here? Is that your? Is that your?

15
00:01:25,799 --> 00:01:27,519
Is that your Master's intro?

16
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:30,079
Speaker 4: Yeah?

17
00:01:30,239 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 3: How was how was the masters? Man? Did you have fun?

18
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 4: I had a blast. This is my second time going.

19
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: What you means, I'm now twice as good as all

20
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,359
of you who have never been. That's the way that

21
00:01:42,439 --> 00:01:45,439
the Masters works. It just makes you that much better

22
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,879
than than everybody else has not been. No, it it

23
00:01:48,959 --> 00:01:53,920
was phenomenal the places. I mean, if it's magical.

24
00:01:53,599 --> 00:01:58,719
Speaker 3: Then actually I think that means, uh, Koogs might be

25
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:03,959
five times better than you because she used to she

26
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,919
used to cover the Masters as a sports reporter. So

27
00:02:09,439 --> 00:02:14,759
I don't know, man, I don't know. I'd like to.

28
00:02:15,719 --> 00:02:18,680
I think I think I want to do a poly

29
00:02:18,879 --> 00:02:21,680
market on Koog's beating you in golf.

30
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 4: I don't know, yeah, probably, probably, yeah, that one.

31
00:02:26,719 --> 00:02:30,879
Speaker 3: Actually she had some really interesting, really interesting things to

32
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,240
say about some of the golfers who she used to interview.

33
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,120
I don't think. I don't think I can speak out

34
00:02:38,159 --> 00:02:40,800
of turn though and say say any of the stuff.

35
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,159
She actually said, We'll just wait to.

36
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 4: Me in the middle of the podcast where she stops listening.

37
00:02:47,439 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 3: Was actually a good idea. Remind me in like thirty

38
00:02:51,039 --> 00:02:51,680
five minutes.

39
00:02:55,599 --> 00:02:55,879
Speaker 4: Man.

40
00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,479
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, I didn't watch one second of it, though.

41
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:04,479
I'm glad you had fun. Though I am. I am

42
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,919
a very uh they call me big empathy because I

43
00:03:08,439 --> 00:03:11,479
care about other people. So I'm glad you had fun.

44
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: I did Gray. Yes, we know that you do not

45
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,800
watch sports outside of baseball and just do not care

46
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,520
at all. And uh, I mean it just adds to

47
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,439
the mystery. If she's that much better than I am

48
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,360
than how how did she did you ever ever pull coobs?

49
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,800
I mean that's the biggest that's the big, big mystery

50
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:37,280
here the left, that's left uncovered. Let's let's get into it. Gray. Noh, Schultz,

51
00:03:37,319 --> 00:03:41,280
it was called up. You know, we're we're excited to

52
00:03:41,319 --> 00:03:44,759
see you. No Schultz, Uh, for the for the White Sox.

53
00:03:44,879 --> 00:03:47,759
I mean as excited that you could be for for

54
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,280
anybody on the White Sox, especially a picture, because that

55
00:03:51,479 --> 00:03:53,800
may you know, it feels like it limits their upside

56
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,240
in regards to wins. But fourteen innings this year, he

57
00:03:57,319 --> 00:03:59,560
has a one two ninety or a oh four three whip.

58
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,560
He has a forty point four percent strikeout rate a

59
00:04:02,599 --> 00:04:06,759
four point three percent walk rate. The walks were high

60
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,479
last year, but they weren't really ever bad before. That

61
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:14,560
seems to like he found a little bit on his fastball,

62
00:04:14,639 --> 00:04:16,639
like a half mile per hour, and he's added a

63
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,680
cutter and uh, he looks. He looks a lot better

64
00:04:19,759 --> 00:04:22,519
after looking like he'd kind of fallen apart as a

65
00:04:22,639 --> 00:04:24,399
prospect last year at Triple A.

66
00:04:25,079 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 3: M Yeah, no, completely. Actually, this will be an interesting

67
00:04:31,399 --> 00:04:37,759
experiment because I feel like the the the Triple A,

68
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:44,759
the White Sox, Triple A pitching coach and coaches just

69
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,519
in general. I'm assuming, uh, they seem to have fixed

70
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,759
Noah Schultz. So now when he comes up and he

71
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:54,920
has a terrible walk.

72
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:59,319
Speaker 5: Rate, we can we can pinpoint the problem is the

73
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:05,399
White Sox coaches versus the minor league development. We will

74
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,199
We'll see, though, I mean, it does look like he's fixed.

75
00:05:09,319 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 3: I mean, I agree. I you know, I was pretty

76
00:05:12,639 --> 00:05:16,800
concerned about his uh you know, what he looked like

77
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,879
in the minor leagues because you know, like you mentioned,

78
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:24,519
the command was pretty bad as of last year, and

79
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:29,240
I you know, I felt like he was a work

80
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:34,600
in progress more than anything. And I mean, fourteen innings

81
00:05:34,639 --> 00:05:38,240
isn't a ton. So I I'll be interested in seeing

82
00:05:38,319 --> 00:05:41,439
if he can hold those gains he made this year

83
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:45,439
with the command. If he does, then he's you know,

84
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,839
he's probably a pickup in just about any league, even

85
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:53,160
the shallowest of leagues, because, like you know, the if

86
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,879
the command is right, he's as good as they come

87
00:05:56,959 --> 00:06:00,839
for pitching prospects. The really the only issue, shoot was

88
00:06:00,879 --> 00:06:05,720
the command. So you know, if we're looking at a

89
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:11,920
ten plus k per nine and a low three high

90
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,879
two walk rate, I mean that plays anywhere it's just

91
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,160
really going to depend on the walk rate because like

92
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:24,319
with his his command last year in a much larger

93
00:06:24,439 --> 00:06:28,199
sample size, that's what she said. Uh, it was a

94
00:06:28,199 --> 00:06:32,399
Actually she never said that. I'd say, like, if his

95
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:36,839
command goes sideways, like he's going to be basically unusable

96
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:41,160
in all but the deepest of leagues. So the range

97
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,439
of outcomes here with Schultz are it's as big as

98
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,720
they possibly can. She never said that either the Uh,

99
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:54,839
I would say possibly unstartable in al only or a

100
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,800
ten team mixed league starter. I mean, it's really like

101
00:06:58,879 --> 00:07:02,240
the outcomes really are just like all over the map here.

102
00:07:02,319 --> 00:07:05,680
I don't know, like I would say, pick him up everywhere,

103
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:09,360
just in case the command does carry over from the

104
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,680
minor leagues and he is and he is able to

105
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,399
you know, do as well as he did in the

106
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,959
very like fourteen innings. I mean, we're really like I'm

107
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,360
surprised the White Tux called him up, to be honest, Like,

108
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:25,879
on on Friday, I think someone asked me in the

109
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,920
comments whether or not they they thought like they asked

110
00:07:28,959 --> 00:07:32,439
me if I thought Schultz was coming up soon, and

111
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:37,120
I said, August, I mean I was really I was

112
00:07:37,199 --> 00:07:41,519
convinced he was nowhere near there on radars. You know,

113
00:07:41,639 --> 00:07:46,399
it's interesting too in our al only league where everyone

114
00:07:46,519 --> 00:07:50,480
is rostered, it's a twelve team al only league, and

115
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:54,519
Noah Schultz was available in that league, and no one's

116
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,199
available in that league. So you know, I think someone

117
00:07:57,279 --> 00:08:00,519
bid like fifty plus dollars on him now if he

118
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:04,800
goes out and is a you know, if he's lights

119
00:08:04,839 --> 00:08:08,560
out in his Tuesday start, I think he's starting Tuesday,

120
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,519
maybe it's Wednesday, whenever he's starting this week. If his

121
00:08:11,759 --> 00:08:15,079
lights out, I mean the FAB bids for him are

122
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,680
going to be out of control next week because you know,

123
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:24,199
in NFBC he wasn't available for unless he was drafted,

124
00:08:24,279 --> 00:08:27,639
which I'm sure he wasn't, so he wasn't available in

125
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,399
FAB until he actually appears in the major leagues, so

126
00:08:31,439 --> 00:08:34,799
he wasn't available yet. So he'll be available this Sunday

127
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,799
coming up. I want to be shocked if he pitches

128
00:08:37,879 --> 00:08:39,720
lights out. I want to be shocked to see his

129
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:44,080
bids over two hundred dollars out of a thousand. So

130
00:08:44,879 --> 00:08:47,399
you know, I personally don't think I'm going to be

131
00:08:47,519 --> 00:08:52,440
in on him because I just don't like the risk,

132
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,600
the range of outcomes here, I think I think he's

133
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,120
probably a little bit too risky for me. For the

134
00:08:59,159 --> 00:09:02,200
amount off fab You're gonna have to bid on him

135
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,480
to get him, like I'll throw, you know, I'll throw

136
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,480
like a fifty dollars fab on him or something like,

137
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,120
you know, just to keep people honest. But there's no

138
00:09:11,279 --> 00:09:14,240
way I'm getting him for fifty dollars. He's gonna go

139
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:18,200
for at least over one hundred. I would guess that's

140
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,919
out of a thousand. Again, in one hundred dollars fab league,

141
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,799
I'm guessing he's gonna go for probably in the range

142
00:09:25,799 --> 00:09:30,159
of like twenty five percent of people's budgets. Again, it

143
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,799
wouldn't be me. In one hundred dollars league, I'd probably

144
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:38,320
am looking at like maybe a twelve dollar bid. He's

145
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,639
probably gonna go for over twenty five. I'm you know,

146
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,080
that's if he's lights out. Now, if he goes out

147
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:48,279
in his first start and he's like, you know, three innings,

148
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:53,039
six walks, four and runs, then the bids are gonna

149
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,159
be a lot more reasonable, and I could see potentially

150
00:09:56,200 --> 00:10:00,960
taking a flyer on him. But it's really like there's

151
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,039
a lot up in the air here. It's really hard

152
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:08,200
to say. The top ceiling outcome, though, is worth the

153
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:12,399
flyer in any league, just in case he really is

154
00:10:12,639 --> 00:10:16,240
as good as he has shown so far in the

155
00:10:16,279 --> 00:10:17,440
minors this year.

156
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he's looked good this year, like you said,

157
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,480
Like you said last year, it was just the command

158
00:10:23,519 --> 00:10:26,200
that seemed to be off and it seemed to come

159
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,000
out of nowhere last year. I don't know if they

160
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,960
were trying to work on something in the season or

161
00:10:32,039 --> 00:10:35,399
what happened in regards to the walk rate, but that

162
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,519
seems to be back under control this week. It seems

163
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,480
to be lined up for a two star week if

164
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,919
they stay on schedule versus Tampa Bay and at the

165
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,919
A's would you run him out for those two stars?

166
00:10:47,919 --> 00:10:50,480
Are you even if you get him this week? So

167
00:10:50,759 --> 00:10:55,679
non NFBC leagues, would you potentially start him or are

168
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,759
you're just gonna bench him and see what happens. Or

169
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,679
if it's a daily league, would you maybe start him

170
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:03,480
russus Tampa Bay, but not.

171
00:11:03,399 --> 00:11:05,679
Speaker 4: At the age? What are your thoughts here on I'm

172
00:11:05,759 --> 00:11:07,399
starting early on.

173
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's exactly what I would have said. If

174
00:11:10,039 --> 00:11:13,360
it's a daily league, I'll start him against the Rays,

175
00:11:13,399 --> 00:11:17,480
no problem. I would not start him in Sacktown bing

176
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,440
Bong Stadium is too crazy. I wouldn't. I wouldn't go

177
00:11:20,519 --> 00:11:24,360
near him there. He could potentially have a great start

178
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,960
because the A's do strike out a lot, so he

179
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,480
could look great against the A's. But I wouldn't mess

180
00:11:30,519 --> 00:11:34,000
with sack Town. It's not it's not a stadium. I

181
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,840
would like a lot of guys that are a lot

182
00:11:36,879 --> 00:11:41,000
more seasoned. I wouldn't mess with in Sacktown. So I

183
00:11:41,039 --> 00:11:43,919
would start him against the Rays, though, if if that's

184
00:11:43,919 --> 00:11:45,720
the start he gets, and if he gets a two

185
00:11:45,759 --> 00:11:50,399
start a week, I would probably be conservative and just

186
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,679
bench him and see what happens like because honestly, I

187
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,080
don't I don't. It's hard to say what's gonna happen

188
00:11:56,159 --> 00:11:59,080
with a rookie, so I don't think it's worth it

189
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:04,000
in a weekly, say twelve team mix league and shallower.

190
00:12:04,039 --> 00:12:08,320
But you know, I think by this point you probably

191
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:09,879
had the start him a ready by the time people

192
00:12:09,919 --> 00:12:12,320
are listening to this, So you know, good luck with

193
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:13,519
your decision.

194
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,039
Speaker 4: Yes, good luck with that.

195
00:12:17,279 --> 00:12:20,639
Speaker 1: I mean, if you had to, then you know again,

196
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:24,039
I think you might start him in like a fifth

197
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:28,480
deep fifteen team, if you're pitching was kind of low anyways,

198
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,600
maybe you run him out otherwise, I think I'm with you.

199
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 4: I think you're probably I'm probably.

200
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 1: Benching him as well this week and just seeing what happens,

201
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,799
but agree the upside is worth grabbing him in just

202
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:41,519
about every format.

203
00:12:42,519 --> 00:12:44,200
Speaker 4: The White Sox making another.

204
00:12:43,919 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 1: Move or it, I don't know. It seemed like he

205
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,399
was did the move was announce and then it was

206
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:53,200
kind of back peddled a little bit. But Sam Antonazi,

207
00:12:54,159 --> 00:12:59,039
they middle infielder, third basement, pretty much just an infielder

208
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,679
for the White Sox as well, has been rumored to

209
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:05,480
be called up on Tuesday this year. In thirteen games

210
00:13:05,639 --> 00:13:08,279
sixty three plate appearances, he has two and runs five

211
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:09,120
stolen bases.

212
00:13:09,399 --> 00:13:10,679
Speaker 4: He's hitting two eighty nine.

213
00:13:11,399 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 1: Four forty four, eleven point one percent walk rate twenty

214
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,480
three point eight percent or sorry, eleven point one percent

215
00:13:18,519 --> 00:13:22,120
strikeout rate twenty three point eight percent walk rate. That's

216
00:13:22,159 --> 00:13:24,919
a that's a big difference there in those numbers. What

217
00:13:24,919 --> 00:13:26,720
do you think about Sam Antonacci?

218
00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,799
Speaker 3: Uh And in the post today on ras ball, I

219
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:37,159
said he was like a a poor man's Caleb Durban,

220
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,200
and I stand by that. I mean Durban started off

221
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:44,399
really cold this year, but in general, that's the player

222
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:49,399
he looks like to me. Uh, you know, low power, speed,

223
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,879
good contact, well, a lot of contact, not necessarily the

224
00:13:54,919 --> 00:13:59,399
best of contact, but you know, I personally, I feel

225
00:13:59,399 --> 00:14:06,360
like he he's probably fifteen team mix league or deeper.

226
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,559
And in a fifteen team mix league, he's like, if

227
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,480
you're struggling at M I, then you go and then

228
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,440
he could You could try him at MI or utility,

229
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,000
I guess, but he's not really a great utility guy.

230
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,600
But if you're struggling at M I, I guess in

231
00:14:20,639 --> 00:14:24,480
a fifteen team mix league, but I'd prefer al only,

232
00:14:24,799 --> 00:14:28,759
and I just don't if he gets hot then you know,

233
00:14:28,919 --> 00:14:34,679
in a shallower league, sure, But as of this point, yeah,

234
00:14:34,759 --> 00:14:38,279
I mean, he's fine for a deeper league, I don't see.

235
00:14:38,799 --> 00:14:42,879
You know, if we were redrafting, give people an idea,

236
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:47,799
I'd probably have him ranked around like three hundred three

237
00:14:47,919 --> 00:14:51,000
twenty overall. So not in a not in a twelve

238
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:55,080
team mix league as of right now, unless you're really struggling,

239
00:14:55,159 --> 00:14:57,559
which I am in our RCL league. So I have

240
00:14:57,679 --> 00:15:01,639
picked him up. I don't think I could have a

241
00:15:01,759 --> 00:15:05,480
worst team in the RCL right now, I might do

242
00:15:05,559 --> 00:15:08,879
the worst team of all time, but anyway, Yeah, so

243
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,399
if you're really struggling, pick him up for you know,

244
00:15:11,559 --> 00:15:14,960
maybe you'll catch lightning in a bottle, but otherwise he's

245
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:16,080
for deeper leagues.

246
00:15:16,639 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agreed. The Blue Jays are trading for Lennon Sosa.

247
00:15:21,799 --> 00:15:24,960
Twelve games this year, thirty three plate appearances, he's hitting

248
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:29,039
two twelve. He can play pretty much any infield position,

249
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:32,720
and I don't know where he would necessarily start for

250
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,159
the Blue Jays. This feels just like a bit of

251
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:37,039
a depth move.

252
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 4: Any thoughts on lenn and Sosa.

253
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I liked him coming into the year

254
00:15:44,519 --> 00:15:47,279
well before you know, he got first. I think he

255
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:52,200
got first buried by more Kamedy, then Austin Hayes buried

256
00:15:52,240 --> 00:16:01,000
him further, and then Luis anghel Akunya him even further.

257
00:16:01,159 --> 00:16:05,759
I mean, Lenon Sosa got buried in that uh depth chart.

258
00:16:06,679 --> 00:16:09,759
So I yeah, I liked him though before he got

259
00:16:09,799 --> 00:16:14,159
buried by those guys. So yeah, depends on playing time

260
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,480
with the Jay's. I don't think. I don't think the

261
00:16:16,519 --> 00:16:19,559
playing time is gonna get that much dramatically better because

262
00:16:20,159 --> 00:16:24,399
you know, Addison Berger's Uh, he's coming back at some point.

263
00:16:24,519 --> 00:16:28,879
He's gonna you know, Lenon Soosa is gonna play behind him. Uh,

264
00:16:28,919 --> 00:16:33,399
he's gonna play you know probably you know, the George

265
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,919
Springer injury. I mean, Lennon Soosa has a little bit

266
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,919
of possibly could get a little bit of a bats

267
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:43,919
because you know right now they they've turned to Eloy Jimenez.

268
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,720
It shows you out desperate the chase are and he

269
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:52,399
and Eli Jimenez heard that and uh, you know, pissed off.

270
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,919
He kicked the rock and just broke his toe. So

271
00:16:55,679 --> 00:16:59,960
Eli Jmenez, Eli Jimenez is getting injured listening to this podcast.

272
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,039
So you know, I wouldn't down on Amenez for much,

273
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,720
but Lenon Sosa I like, but I don't know what

274
00:17:06,799 --> 00:17:09,640
the abats are going to be like, Yeah.

275
00:17:09,519 --> 00:17:12,640
Speaker 1: I mean I like Lenonzosa as a depth piece in

276
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,960
deeper leagues this year as well. As you mentioned, the

277
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,240
playing time was always going to be a little bit sporadic,

278
00:17:18,319 --> 00:17:21,519
So nothing really really changing here. He's still gonna be

279
00:17:21,599 --> 00:17:24,799
a little bit of a needs an injury to get

280
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:25,759
playing time.

281
00:17:25,799 --> 00:17:27,079
Speaker 4: But I don't hate him when he does.

282
00:17:27,319 --> 00:17:30,640
Speaker 1: I feel like he's a solid player him and I

283
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,839
feel like David Schneider and Ilo Mnez all gonna fight

284
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,720
for a little bit of playing time. So that's a

285
00:17:36,759 --> 00:17:41,559
pretty gross commendation for a team that, if I guess,

286
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:45,000
they would have fancied themselves playoff contenders and even even

287
00:17:45,039 --> 00:17:47,759
world serious contenders. But that doesn't sound that doesn't sound

288
00:17:47,799 --> 00:17:52,839
like a world serious contender in the current moment. Let's

289
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,359
talk about a little bit of a move that was

290
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,640
hard for me to see. Noevan Marte sent down. He

291
00:17:59,759 --> 00:18:01,920
was a Reds player this year. I think gray and

292
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,720
of course in true Reds player for this podcast form,

293
00:18:06,279 --> 00:18:10,640
he's terrible. He played eleven games, only thirty one plate appearances,

294
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,720
US stolen base. He was hitting one thirty eight a

295
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:15,759
thirty two percent strike up rate, is six and a

296
00:18:15,799 --> 00:18:19,960
half percent walk rate. Reyes Hines gets called up before

297
00:18:20,079 --> 00:18:22,880
him in thirteen games in Triple A this year. He

298
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:26,319
has sixty one plate appearances, five home runs, a stone base.

299
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,200
He's hitting three fifty four, four, seventy five, seven to

300
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,839
seventy one. He's a twenty four point six percent strike

301
00:18:31,839 --> 00:18:34,960
all rate and a nineteen point seven percent walk rate.

302
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,680
This would be so Reds for the guy we all

303
00:18:37,839 --> 00:18:40,680
liked to be terrible and the guy who gets called

304
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,400
out to be the one that we all in up wanting.

305
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,279
Is that exactly what's gonna happen? Or what are your

306
00:18:46,279 --> 00:18:50,279
thoughts here? And should people be hanging on to once

307
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,240
highly thought of Noel and Marte?

308
00:18:53,799 --> 00:18:53,920
Speaker 5: Uh?

309
00:18:55,000 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 3: I would say noelve Marte and Matt McClain and Christian

310
00:19:03,039 --> 00:19:09,359
and Carcio Strand and let's see who else? I read

311
00:19:09,519 --> 00:19:18,559
is Aristides a Kino? If they they're so, they're in

312
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:25,000
a bus and could we send them to a place

313
00:19:25,039 --> 00:19:28,839
where I can never ever know about them again? Because

314
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:35,960
they every Reds prospect, every like every Reds upside play

315
00:19:36,559 --> 00:19:41,119
of the last twelve years has burned me so bad.

316
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaking of burning me, what's going on with Chase Burns? Ah,

317
00:19:46,759 --> 00:19:50,799
stay away from the Reds, Gray, stay away from the

318
00:19:50,839 --> 00:19:55,119
Reds please. I have to I have a note. I

319
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,799
have to write a post it and post it to

320
00:19:57,839 --> 00:20:04,640
my computer because and the Reds burned me. I uh yeah,

321
00:20:04,759 --> 00:20:10,039
I mean I don't know. I think Marte was someone

322
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:15,799
who I don't know what exactly, like early he slept

323
00:20:15,799 --> 00:20:19,119
with Terry Francona's wife, because I don't know what happened there.

324
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:25,599
I honestly I'm not sure why Marte just became persona

325
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:31,039
non grata, like out of nowhere. He played last year.

326
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,839
Marte was good for the Reds last year. Like why

327
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,640
all of a sudden it was like, oh, yeah, Cabrian

328
00:20:38,759 --> 00:20:40,640
Hayes is our third basement, Like.

329
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:42,559
Speaker 6: What he's awful?

330
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 3: What are you doing?

331
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 6: Ah?

332
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:49,599
Speaker 3: So fun? This is really frustrating. Man, I h I

333
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:53,920
really liked Marte a lot. Actually, I saw in our

334
00:20:54,039 --> 00:20:57,359
NL only league, the one you're you're winning by a lot,

335
00:20:57,519 --> 00:21:01,319
you had Marte in that league. I was I was

336
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:06,759
happy to see that. Re Hines, I'm not Oh, by

337
00:21:06,759 --> 00:21:11,400
the way, Reese Hines who got called up to replace Marte. Yeah,

338
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,799
I would never go near them. There's no way. I

339
00:21:13,839 --> 00:21:18,160
mean burn me once, shame on you, burn me twice,

340
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:22,759
shame on me, burn me five thousand times. Already stop

341
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:27,119
burning me. No, I'm not picking up Reese Hines. I'm

342
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:31,240
not interested. I just want to I want all those

343
00:21:31,319 --> 00:21:35,160
sexy Reds prospects just to leave me alone. Just leave

344
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:35,839
me alone.

345
00:21:36,039 --> 00:21:36,279
Speaker 2: Man.

346
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,960
Speaker 3: I liked you, Jonathan India at one point. Leave me alone.

347
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,920
I like you, Matt McLean, leave me alone. I like

348
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:49,799
you a keynote, I like you marte Ah. Anyway, this

349
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:51,960
is really a frustrating conversation. Let's move on.

350
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,559
Speaker 1: Okay, we will move on. Thank goodness to the least

351
00:21:55,720 --> 00:22:00,799
ledlic careers in South Steward exists to maintain some semblance of.

352
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:03,039
Speaker 3: So bad.

353
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,079
Speaker 1: I really hope not because I thought we have both

354
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,680
We both have shares of those guys, So I hope,

355
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,920
I really hope not some guys a guy that I

356
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,799
hope that neither of us have shares of this. Yeah,

357
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,839
em I he has dead arm, he has hit the

358
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:23,759
I l uh jere Paine also on the I L

359
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:28,440
with the hamstring strain. Eui has had a less than

360
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:31,680
great start really just this last one. He had a

361
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,240
third of any three yearned runs at Seattle on Friday.

362
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:39,240
Before that he was fine, but that one obviously led

363
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,519
to the dead arm and the I L hit. What

364
00:22:41,599 --> 00:22:44,200
are your thoughts on EMI in general here?

365
00:22:45,279 --> 00:22:45,400
Speaker 6: Uh?

366
00:22:45,599 --> 00:22:48,680
Speaker 3: Well, I actually I do have uh am I and

367
00:22:48,799 --> 00:22:52,079
a bunch of leagues, so it's not good. It's not

368
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:58,480
a good story for me. I Uh. I think quote

369
00:22:58,519 --> 00:23:03,839
dead arm is BS personally because like he looked fine

370
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,559
the start before, and then this start it was like

371
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:09,960
I think it was something like four walks in a

372
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,799
third of an inning like he was. He clearly has

373
00:23:12,839 --> 00:23:16,440
a mechanics issue more than a dead arm. I think personally,

374
00:23:16,519 --> 00:23:20,160
I don't know. I mean, my guess is it's more

375
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:24,440
of a mechanics thing, so hopefully he can figure it

376
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,440
out after two weeks and come back and be fine.

377
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:31,400
I don't know, I it's a I think it's just

378
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:36,119
like at this point, it's just like a total flyer

379
00:23:37,279 --> 00:23:40,680
in most shallower leagues, like I would hold him if

380
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:45,559
I had an il stint a slot. I don't, And

381
00:23:45,839 --> 00:23:48,440
you know, in leagues where you don't have the option

382
00:23:48,599 --> 00:23:51,960
to hold him, you might have to move on in

383
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,960
shallower leagues. For right now, I'm holding him in a

384
00:23:56,039 --> 00:24:00,400
fifteen team mix league. We'll see check back next week

385
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,200
to see if I still have him, but right now

386
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,079
I do, all right.

387
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,599
Speaker 1: And then forth Houston. I mean, they're they're down a

388
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:08,359
few pictures.

389
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 3: Gray.

390
00:24:08,759 --> 00:24:11,599
Speaker 1: I don't know if you're you're aware of this, but uh,

391
00:24:11,759 --> 00:24:14,880
they're they. I don't know who they're calling up. If

392
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,240
I'm being honest, I would assume Spencer Arraghetty is getting

393
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:18,480
the call.

394
00:24:18,559 --> 00:24:21,440
Speaker 4: He's been kind of lengthening out in the minors.

395
00:24:21,599 --> 00:24:25,079
Speaker 1: And then I would assume it's like one of Jason

396
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:29,440
Alexander or maybe Miguel Lala is getting called up. I

397
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:33,160
really hope I set that name even close to correctly,

398
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,960
but I'm pretty sure I did not any thoughts here on.

399
00:24:37,559 --> 00:24:39,440
I mean, I feel like Ragetty can be picked up

400
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:43,119
across the board. He should have a starting spot, and he.

401
00:24:43,519 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 4: May have a starting spot even once everybody gets healthy.

402
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:49,400
He should. Other than that, I don't I really don't

403
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:50,279
know who's taking.

404
00:24:50,039 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 3: That last spot. If I had to guess, they called

405
00:24:54,039 --> 00:24:59,000
up JP France. Uh so he could start, Uh, Jason Alexander,

406
00:25:00,079 --> 00:25:05,000
the picture, not the actor. He could probably start. Eric

407
00:25:05,039 --> 00:25:07,680
Getty is the only one of any interest. I would

408
00:25:08,039 --> 00:25:10,599
I as you said, I would pick up Eric Getty

409
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:14,839
all over. And you know, there's also some breaking news

410
00:25:14,839 --> 00:25:17,480
that Jeremy Paine you just went on the IL. So

411
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:23,359
the Astros. It's interesting the Lord works in mysterious ways,

412
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,839
because you would have thought the Astros would have been

413
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:29,440
punished for cheating back in like I don't know, twenty eighteen,

414
00:25:29,799 --> 00:25:33,920
maybe twenty nineteen, maybe twenty twenty, maybe twenty twenty one,

415
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:41,200
But for some reason they're getting punished nine years later. Yeah,

416
00:25:41,319 --> 00:25:44,480
So Jeremy Paine is on the IL. I don't know

417
00:25:44,519 --> 00:25:48,400
how major it is. There's no one there. If anything,

418
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,839
that opens up. So Kraya moves a shortstop and that

419
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:56,000
opens up some at bats for predees, which is good

420
00:25:56,039 --> 00:25:58,839
for preddi's. So yeah, if you have predies, that's a

421
00:25:58,839 --> 00:26:01,880
good thing. But yeah, it's a it's a mess, it's

422
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,640
a it's a total mess. I would pick up uh

423
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:07,599
pretties and uh arraghatty.

424
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:10,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree with both of those.

425
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,400
Speaker 1: Let's move on to Tommy fam Uh called up by

426
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,119
the Mets. He was hitting a whopping one sixty seven

427
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:20,720
and a ball through five games, so definitely deserves this

428
00:26:20,799 --> 00:26:24,279
call up. No, I mean he hit two, five, three

429
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,759
thirty three seventy last year. Tino runs five stone bases

430
00:26:27,759 --> 00:26:30,960
and one hundred and twenty games. What what leagues are you

431
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:31,359
picking up?

432
00:26:33,759 --> 00:26:37,359
Speaker 3: You? You? I would pick him up as a commissioner

433
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,279
in a fantasy football league.

434
00:26:40,759 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 5: You you you're more familiar with football than I am.

435
00:26:44,839 --> 00:26:48,519
Speaker 3: Is the NFL draftshit? Like maybe they're doing the Mets

436
00:26:48,519 --> 00:26:54,200
are doing a dynasty league, fantasy dynasty, Fantasy football, dynasty league,

437
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:58,079
and they're like, we need a commissioner. Let's get Fam

438
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,359
up here. He he also, to me, feels like a

439
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:05,119
guy who would cause a lot of issues in a clubhouse.

440
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,960
So I don't know why the Mets are calling him up,

441
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,759
to be honest, I don't know. I guess maybe he'll

442
00:27:11,759 --> 00:27:15,759
get some at bats in the outfield. I don't know.

443
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:19,920
I wouldn't. The Mets don't make any sense though, because

444
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,839
like the Mets went out and got Sime and Polonco

445
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:27,880
when they could have just played Viento's and Akunya who

446
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:31,680
they sent uh. I like Mauricio better than Fam, and

447
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:35,200
they sent down Ronnie Mauricio to bring up Tommy Fam.

448
00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,799
So I don't know. I have no idea what the

449
00:27:37,799 --> 00:27:40,759
Mets are thinking. But I wouldn't pick up Tommy Fam

450
00:27:40,759 --> 00:27:41,440
in any league.

451
00:27:42,279 --> 00:27:45,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you could give him grab him.

452
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 1: Up in l But that's about it. And that's that

453
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:52,480
just applies to literally anybody who is on an active roster.

454
00:27:53,079 --> 00:27:56,359
So moving over to Nick Favetta, who has elbows stiffness.

455
00:27:56,559 --> 00:27:59,480
He left the game on Sunday. He got beat up

456
00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:01,680
in his first start this season, but it's been good

457
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:05,799
since then. Is Pavetta worth taking up an il spot

458
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:06,759
or are you letting him go?

459
00:28:10,759 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 3: I would probably let him go in shallower leagues. Actually,

460
00:28:15,039 --> 00:28:19,720
in our in our NL only league, where you lost Marte,

461
00:28:19,839 --> 00:28:24,240
I lost Paveta, so it'll teach me to make fun

462
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:28,000
of you. Yeah, I would. I would probably drop Paveta

463
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,839
in shallower leagues and try and I l him in

464
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:35,279
other leagues because I think it'll be you know, if

465
00:28:35,839 --> 00:28:39,680
the past is any indications what's to come. Paveta was

466
00:28:40,839 --> 00:28:44,440
on the I l with elbow stiffness I think two

467
00:28:44,519 --> 00:28:48,160
years ago and missed you know, five to six weeks,

468
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,240
and then came back and was good for like one

469
00:28:51,279 --> 00:28:54,920
hundred innings, So he might be fine. He might just

470
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,839
need a break and then come back in like a

471
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,960
month and be okay. So you know, if it's a

472
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,400
super shallow league, then I guess you can move on.

473
00:29:03,519 --> 00:29:04,839
But I would try and hold.

474
00:29:04,599 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 4: On, all right, Yeah, I think.

475
00:29:07,119 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 1: I mean it's early enough. You probably should have Annio

476
00:29:09,759 --> 00:29:13,880
spot Let's just drafted a full list of them, So

477
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,400
I would go ahead and hold him if you have to.

478
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,160
Kind of, it's not the end of the world, though,

479
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:23,759
gray and has a mandatory. Didyer Flint is mentioned, so

480
00:29:23,799 --> 00:29:27,480
here it is Gray. I will just let you speak

481
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:31,079
about Didyer flintes as the mandatory time that I have

482
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:35,440
to watch you every week in regards to his eventual

483
00:29:35,519 --> 00:29:39,000
call up, that I don't feel as close as you do.

484
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:44,359
But maybe, I mean they did just they just did.

485
00:29:45,119 --> 00:29:49,079
They did just lose yet another picture, so it could be.

486
00:29:50,039 --> 00:29:50,519
Speaker 3: Well it is.

487
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:51,039
Speaker 1: Uh.

488
00:29:51,759 --> 00:29:54,519
Speaker 3: It is almost thirty five minutes into the podcast, so

489
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,200
now the Coods has tuned out, we can talk about

490
00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:02,559
the golfers. She said that we're awful. You know, I

491
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:08,680
feel like Flanta's I mean, unless I'm absolutely crazy, I mean,

492
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:12,000
he could be one of the top call ups. So

493
00:30:12,079 --> 00:30:16,519
I just feel like it's worth stashing because you know,

494
00:30:16,599 --> 00:30:21,759
the Braves currently have a four man rotation and I

495
00:30:21,839 --> 00:30:24,319
just don't see how that lasts much longer. I know

496
00:30:24,359 --> 00:30:29,599
Strider is coming back soon, but yeah, I mean I

497
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,039
don't know. I'm in on Flante. I mean, there's a

498
00:30:32,079 --> 00:30:35,279
reason why they sent him down with the you know,

499
00:30:35,559 --> 00:30:38,920
the reason being to stretch him out to bring him

500
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,640
back as a starter. So and he's just lights out

501
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,519
in the miners right now, so I really don't see

502
00:30:45,519 --> 00:30:48,839
why they won't call him up. I think it's happened

503
00:30:48,839 --> 00:30:51,599
this week. I don't know, Maybe I'm crazy and maybe

504
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,839
you're right, maybe he's nowhere near being called up. I

505
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:55,119
don't know.

506
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 1: No, I think he could get called up for a

507
00:30:58,599 --> 00:31:03,000
starter or two until somebody's ready, and in their iel,

508
00:31:03,119 --> 00:31:06,559
they're very vast pitching I L. I do think you

509
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:10,440
get get some starts, and I think that may be. Unfortunately,

510
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:13,559
how his season goes is he'll get a starter, two

511
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:17,519
or even three. Somebody will get you know, young comeback

512
00:31:17,519 --> 00:31:20,799
from the injured list, take his spot. Somebody else will

513
00:31:20,799 --> 00:31:22,960
go on the injured list. Oh, get called like it.

514
00:31:23,079 --> 00:31:24,799
I just feel like this is a little bit of

515
00:31:24,799 --> 00:31:29,160
a yoyo situation in and again, the pitchers that they

516
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,880
have up are pitching well, so it's it's not as

517
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,319
though there's one that's just an obvious Oh well, they

518
00:31:35,319 --> 00:31:37,640
can be sent down and they'll just bring him up.

519
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:40,359
I just don't know who that is. I mean, it

520
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:42,559
could be Spencer Strider when he goes back for just

521
00:31:43,279 --> 00:31:44,960
for just being honest, and he could go back to

522
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,119
the I L. But there's your time, Gray, You got

523
00:31:48,119 --> 00:31:51,039
your your did Diddyer Fins has mentioned of the week,

524
00:31:53,079 --> 00:31:55,839
let's move on to some players who might be breaking out.

525
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:58,839
They may need to be at a table eating hot

526
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:02,240
wings across from show because they are hot ones. Gray

527
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:06,200
O'Neal Cruise the number one hitter on the Player Raider

528
00:32:06,279 --> 00:32:10,720
fifteen games, sixty five plate appearances, five home runs, six

529
00:32:10,799 --> 00:32:15,200
dolen bases. He's hitting three thirty nine four hundred six

530
00:32:15,359 --> 00:32:21,559
forty four. It's is it, o'deo Cruise time? Are we

531
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:26,359
finally there? Or is this just kind of you know

532
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:29,240
that blip he gives us every season at the beginning

533
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,799
of the year to make us think it's the year.

534
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 3: Uh I uh, you know, I was looking at O'Neill

535
00:32:39,359 --> 00:32:42,319
Cruz and I was like, I was seeing how he hit.

536
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:47,880
He has a eight homers, twelve steals, only a twenty

537
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:52,759
seven percent strikeout rate. Oh oh, I'm sorry, that's actually

538
00:32:52,799 --> 00:32:58,720
his April from last year. This is the same story, man.

539
00:32:58,839 --> 00:33:01,519
This is like we I mean, until we see an

540
00:33:01,519 --> 00:33:06,119
oneo Cruiz that can last longer than four weeks, what

541
00:33:06,279 --> 00:33:10,319
are we doing? Like everyone's like convinced. I know, like

542
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:14,839
most people don't have you know, uh, they're not like

543
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:19,359
keeping track of what players do from previous year. I

544
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,000
understand that, but there's so many people now that are

545
00:33:22,079 --> 00:33:24,400
just like, oh, o neeo Cruz is finally breaking out,

546
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:28,839
Like is he now? I mean, we've seen literally this

547
00:33:29,079 --> 00:33:35,039
exact same playbook from him last year. It was last year.

548
00:33:35,119 --> 00:33:38,039
We thought in April of last year he was like

549
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,680
one of the best players, one of the best hitters

550
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,880
in the majors, and then it was just like completely

551
00:33:46,599 --> 00:33:49,240
got to the point where like by the second half

552
00:33:49,319 --> 00:33:52,079
of the year people were talking about dropping him. He

553
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,720
was so awful. I mean, it's just I don't know,

554
00:33:55,279 --> 00:33:57,599
I just feel like he might be the biggest sell

555
00:33:58,519 --> 00:34:03,200
for me right now. I feel like people are getting

556
00:34:03,519 --> 00:34:07,880
sucked in once again by O'Neil Cruz and until I mean,

557
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,400
maybe this is the year when he finally does it.

558
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:15,119
But we've never seen him put together more than a

559
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:20,400
month of hot hitting ever, Like he just gets exploited.

560
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:25,320
And last year from his uh, last year, his time

561
00:34:25,599 --> 00:34:29,079
in the in April, he actually had an even better

562
00:34:29,519 --> 00:34:32,760
strikeout rate last year, Like last year it seemed like

563
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:35,800
it was like, oh wow, twenty seven percent strikeout rate,

564
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:40,320
like maybe maybe he's finally tamed that part of his game.

565
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:44,880
But this year his strikeouts are even not great, so

566
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,760
they're over thirty percent. So yeah, I mean, I just

567
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:52,079
don't buy this at all. He's like, you know, he's

568
00:34:52,199 --> 00:34:54,119
right now, he's got a four to forty one babbit.

569
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:58,960
If he ends up anywhere near his career average, career

570
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:03,679
average babbit, it's gonna be like, you know, he's gonna

571
00:35:03,679 --> 00:35:07,719
be hitting two thirty five again. So yeah, and that's

572
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,800
and going from three thirty five where he is now

573
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:14,079
to two thirty five, there's gonna be stretches there where

574
00:35:14,119 --> 00:35:17,960
he's hitting one hundred for weeks at a time. It's

575
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:21,719
gonna get so bad. So I just, yeah, I don't.

576
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:23,559
I don't think it's fixed. I don't. I don't think

577
00:35:23,559 --> 00:35:24,760
O'Neil Cruz is fixed.

578
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say if anything, last April felt more

579
00:35:29,119 --> 00:35:33,360
real because the strikeouts were down, the walk rate was up,

580
00:35:33,519 --> 00:35:37,920
the babbit was like normal less April felt like it

581
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:42,480
could have been happening. This this feels like he's you know,

582
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:47,920
he does hit the ball incredibly hard. He is incredibly talented,

583
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:51,039
which is why I have shares every single year and

584
00:35:51,079 --> 00:35:56,199
I can't help myself. But until we see the strikeout raider,

585
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,880
the swinging strike rate at least one of those come

586
00:36:00,119 --> 00:36:03,599
down to some degree, I'm just not gonna buy that

587
00:36:03,679 --> 00:36:06,599
he's he's all of a sudden figured it out. Do

588
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,280
I think he could be better than he was the

589
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:13,760
rest of twenty twenty five after April? Yes, but that's

590
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,320
a very very low bar. I mean, he hit like

591
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:20,719
one ninety five the rest of the season, So yes,

592
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,719
I think he could hit above the Mendoza line for

593
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:27,000
the rest of this season. And yes, my bold call

594
00:36:27,119 --> 00:36:29,320
was that O'Neill Cruiz figures it out. But I don't.

595
00:36:29,599 --> 00:36:30,719
Speaker 4: I don't think we're there yet.

596
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:33,800
Speaker 1: Now with you, if somebody believes they're figured it out

597
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:37,320
and you get I don't know what any like top

598
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:41,239
two three round value, somehow I would I would probably

599
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:46,599
do that without even thinking another breakout gray that we

600
00:36:46,679 --> 00:36:50,559
have just been wishing upon a start for Jordan Walker.

601
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:52,280
Speaker 4: Is he breaking out?

602
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:55,039
Speaker 1: He has seven home runs a stone base, he's hitting

603
00:36:55,079 --> 00:36:58,360
three twenty seven, three ninety three, seven forty five.

604
00:36:59,679 --> 00:37:01,440
Speaker 4: He went to drive line.

605
00:37:01,519 --> 00:37:05,280
Speaker 1: I said, liked him in the He said he figured

606
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,639
something out great, like something was wrong with the swing,

607
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,760
that they messed up in the miners because whatever the

608
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,000
Cardinals are doing the miners isn't working right now. But

609
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,079
he's figured it out. Has he figured it out?

610
00:37:16,199 --> 00:37:20,599
Speaker 7: Or is this it's just temptation I'm gonna, I mean,

611
00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:24,519
this next off season, you and I are gonna go

612
00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:28,880
and and sit in the bushes outside of drive line

613
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:32,000
with some binoculars.

614
00:37:32,039 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, well I see that. All right, Well

615
00:37:35,039 --> 00:37:40,559
Michael Bush is going in. Okay, I uh yeah, I

616
00:37:40,559 --> 00:37:43,519
think Jordan Walker. I mean, as ridiculous as it is,

617
00:37:43,679 --> 00:37:46,079
it is a it's still a small sample size, but

618
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:50,960
I think he's actually fixed because unless, you know, unless

619
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:54,000
he reverts back to what he was doing previous seasons,

620
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:58,760
he like the fly ball rate looks like what it

621
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:02,440
should look like, you know, like he's finally he's finally

622
00:38:02,519 --> 00:38:05,239
hitting he's you know, his launch angle, and he's hitting

623
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:07,679
the ball the way he should have been hitting the

624
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:11,679
ball like he was always you know, like I said

625
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:16,360
on the site many times, like he is always been

626
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:21,239
a thirty five homer ten steel two seventy hitter. It's

627
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:25,480
just a matter of swinging right, and it looks like

628
00:38:25,559 --> 00:38:28,760
he's swinging right. So yeah, I'm in man. I like

629
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:32,840
Jordan Walker. Aton Unfortunately, for the first time ever, I

630
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:36,920
don't actually have him in any fantasy leagues. I'm cursed,

631
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:41,159
but I still, you know, I I'm still a fan.

632
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,519
I just you know, Unfortunately it's he's going to be

633
00:38:44,559 --> 00:38:47,239
performing well for other people. But I yeah, I think

634
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,880
Jordan Walker is he looks right, he looks fixed.

635
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:55,039
Speaker 1: Finally, all right, let me throw some names at you Gray,

636
00:38:55,079 --> 00:38:58,719
we'll see where where Jordan Walker is fitting in for you.

637
00:38:59,519 --> 00:39:06,159
Would you take Jordan Walker or your your your favorite

638
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:08,400
guy in the world. Michael Harris second.

639
00:39:10,199 --> 00:39:18,559
Speaker 6: I would go Walker, Okay, Walker or the Ian Hapline.

640
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:23,400
Speaker 3: That's a tough one. Uh, they're very close. I would

641
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:28,199
I would still I would probably go, uh, Jordan Walker

642
00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,400
because I feel like with Ian hap is as valuable

643
00:39:31,599 --> 00:39:36,519
and underrated as he is, Jordan Walker's upsides unknown right now,

644
00:39:36,559 --> 00:39:39,079
and I'm going with the upside of Walker.

645
00:39:40,079 --> 00:39:47,320
Speaker 1: Okay, how about him or the guy you didn't necessarily

646
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,639
believe him, but his right behind him on the play

647
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:51,320
raider Andy Pyes.

648
00:39:51,559 --> 00:39:55,480
Speaker 3: Mmmm, yeah, that's a that's a tough one because I

649
00:39:55,679 --> 00:39:59,159
didn't believe in Pies, but you know he's proven me

650
00:39:59,199 --> 00:40:03,679
wrong too, uh, or proven me wrong for the first time.

651
00:40:03,679 --> 00:40:08,280
I should say, Yeah, I would probably go Paes because

652
00:40:08,599 --> 00:40:13,119
the lineup's really good, the park's really good. He looks

653
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:18,039
he looks fine and wrong to doubt Andy Pies, So

654
00:40:18,119 --> 00:40:19,719
I would go piz over Walker.

655
00:40:20,599 --> 00:40:23,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, thank you everybody out there in fantasy world who

656
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:26,000
doubted Andy Pies because I have so many cheap shares.

657
00:40:26,039 --> 00:40:26,960
It's it's a.

658
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:31,440
Speaker 1: Wonderful, wonderful thing. No, I mean, anty bias is in.

659
00:40:31,519 --> 00:40:34,719
That lineup has just been absolutely great. And if there's anything,

660
00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:38,039
even if Jordan Walker breaks out, that lineup is still

661
00:40:38,079 --> 00:40:42,119
going to be garbage. So there's there's only gonna be

662
00:40:42,119 --> 00:40:45,760
so many opportunities for him to score runs or knock

663
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:49,840
in runs. Let's talk about somebody who has plenty of

664
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,559
opportunities to do both those things, and that has been Rice.

665
00:40:53,079 --> 00:40:55,159
Fourteen games this year, he has four home runs of

666
00:40:55,159 --> 00:40:58,719
stolen base, He's hitting three fifty six five hundred seven

667
00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:02,480
fifty six, have a twenty nine point three percent strikeout rate,

668
00:41:02,519 --> 00:41:05,039
but that goes with a twenty two point four to

669
00:41:05,079 --> 00:41:08,719
four per sand walk ring. What's your thoughts here on

670
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:09,400
Ben Rice?

671
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:16,320
Speaker 3: Uh? So, you know, I think he's been hot, but

672
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,880
I don't really. I still, I mean, it's kind of

673
00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:24,440
ridiculous to still be anti Ben Rice because he is

674
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:28,960
hitting very well, but I still don't buy it fully,

675
00:41:29,199 --> 00:41:33,280
Like he's still not hitting lefties and it's gotten to

676
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:35,840
the point where you know, Boone has taken him out

677
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:38,880
of the lineup first lefties, which he should do. I

678
00:41:39,599 --> 00:41:43,760
agree with that. I think, you know, unfortunately it's to

679
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:46,800
take him out for Paul Goldschmidt, which is like I

680
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,360
think I would just take terrible I would take terrible

681
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:53,920
at that's from Ben Rice against lefties versus Goldschmidt. But

682
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:59,440
I do understand at least why he's getting pulled verse lefties,

683
00:41:59,599 --> 00:42:04,480
and that just hurts his counting stats. So there's that.

684
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:08,199
And on top of that, I just like, like, right now,

685
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:10,960
is bab it's five hundred. I mean, he's not a

686
00:42:11,199 --> 00:42:14,320
he's not a three fifty hitter. He's not even I'm

687
00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:17,360
not even sure he's a two fifty hitter. And you

688
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:23,880
know he's had quite a few Like his homers. While great,

689
00:42:24,199 --> 00:42:26,960
you know early on it looks good to have, you know,

690
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:30,559
four home four homers, is still like, you know, he's

691
00:42:30,599 --> 00:42:35,159
got a long ways to go before he's actually you know,

692
00:42:36,559 --> 00:42:41,719
a smart pick at a catcher where he was going.

693
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:45,159
So I still I still stand by me saying he

694
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:48,639
was overrated in the in the preseason, like his homer

695
00:42:48,679 --> 00:42:51,920
per fly balls. Right now, it's over thirty percent. It

696
00:42:52,079 --> 00:42:56,079
all is just his like is as sure as I

697
00:42:56,800 --> 00:43:00,280
feel with Jordan Walker, because that was more of a

698
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:04,440
mechanics thing and like he was fixed and as long

699
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:08,199
as he stays fixed, I like Jordan Walker. But Benrice,

700
00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:10,960
there was no like. He's just the same guy. He

701
00:43:11,159 --> 00:43:14,239
just happens to be hot in the first two weeks

702
00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:17,280
of the season, So that's fine. I mean, I'm glad

703
00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:21,039
people who drafted him high got a you know, got

704
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:24,039
two weeks of hot hitting from him. But he's not

705
00:43:24,159 --> 00:43:26,599
a different player all of a sudden. You know, his

706
00:43:27,159 --> 00:43:30,559
kys or near thirty percent, which I don't think is

707
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,840
actually where he's gonna end up, but his walks are

708
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:38,400
over twenty percent. Like everything looks just so silly on

709
00:43:38,519 --> 00:43:41,400
Ben Rice's line that I don't think you can believe

710
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:43,480
any of it. I don't think any of it's real.

711
00:43:43,599 --> 00:43:48,800
I think he's still a twenty two homer, very few steals,

712
00:43:49,079 --> 00:43:52,159
two point fifty hitter that is gonna sit vers lefties,

713
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:55,480
which is totally fine, but not for where he was

714
00:43:55,519 --> 00:43:56,800
going at drafts.

715
00:43:58,119 --> 00:44:01,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, if you're starting him a catcher, then

716
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:06,239
you can you can make sense of it because of

717
00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:09,280
what makes sense at catcher and what that position does.

718
00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:13,440
But I'm with you in general, like not really buying anything.

719
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:17,400
If anything, Gray his bat his average batspeed and fast

720
00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:21,280
swing rate were actually down this season, so he's striking

721
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:21,960
out more.

722
00:44:22,119 --> 00:44:26,920
Speaker 4: He's he's swinging the bat less aggressively or less hard

723
00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:28,199
than he was last year.

724
00:44:30,039 --> 00:44:33,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel like Ben Rice is a cell if

725
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:37,840
if people are buying him fully at this point, would

726
00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:41,000
you take him or you know, we'll start at the

727
00:44:41,079 --> 00:44:45,920
number one catcher Drake Baldwin, Oh, absolutely Baldwin.

728
00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:51,360
Speaker 3: Well Ben Rice or Shy Langliers Langlers absolutely.

729
00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:55,199
Speaker 4: Number four catcher Liam Hicks.

730
00:44:56,199 --> 00:44:58,480
Speaker 3: Ben Rice, yep, I would make that one.

731
00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:00,719
Speaker 1: Let's move over to first base real quick, as there

732
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,400
are some people who might be starting him at first

733
00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:08,679
base him or also hot starters of the season and

734
00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:16,000
only productive Cincinnati read South Stewart.

735
00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 3: You know, actually I guess Sell Stewart.

736
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:20,960
Speaker 1: I would as well Ben Rice or Madelson.

737
00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:25,320
Speaker 4: I would go Matt Olson Madelson as well.

738
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,559
Speaker 1: Let's scroll down a little bit somebody. I think we're

739
00:45:28,599 --> 00:45:31,159
both a little bit down on the season, and I've

740
00:45:31,159 --> 00:45:32,800
been down on for like five seasons.

741
00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:38,360
Speaker 8: Freddy Freeman, I really don't like Freddy Freeman, but I

742
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:41,360
would I would go Freddy Freeman over Betton Rice, but

743
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,519
they're probably very similar.

744
00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:49,920
Speaker 3: I think Freddy Freeman quickly would be like I feel like,

745
00:45:50,039 --> 00:45:56,480
seventeen homers to seventy five to eighty average, good counting stats.

746
00:45:57,559 --> 00:45:59,960
Ben Rice a little bit more power, a little bit

747
00:46:00,199 --> 00:46:04,599
less average, decent county stats, but he's gonna sit verst lefties.

748
00:46:04,679 --> 00:46:06,760
So I would go Freeman, but they're very close.

749
00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:09,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I would go Rights there, but again

750
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:13,000
I'm a known Freeman hater. Just kind of where we're going.

751
00:46:13,039 --> 00:46:15,320
And it really depends on your team. Like if you

752
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:17,559
needed the average and the county numbers.

753
00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:19,239
Speaker 4: I could see going Freeman.

754
00:46:19,679 --> 00:46:22,119
Speaker 1: But Rice is gonna have Catt county numbers too, So

755
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:26,639
it's really not like an average versus power thing. And

756
00:46:26,639 --> 00:46:29,239
and you know, we pointed out for Oneo Cruiz, so

757
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:30,239
I feel.

758
00:46:30,079 --> 00:46:31,880
Speaker 4: Obligated to say this for Ben Rice.

759
00:46:32,599 --> 00:46:36,119
Speaker 1: Last April he hit eight home runs, two stolen bases,

760
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:40,119
and hit two sixty six. I mean we pointed out

761
00:46:40,159 --> 00:46:41,800
for Ona CRUs, we have to point it out for

762
00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:46,400
Ben Rice. Like these players that swing in this manner,

763
00:46:47,159 --> 00:46:50,199
they have hot and cold months. They're just they're starting

764
00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,400
with a hot month, which is great. You get to

765
00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:54,679
see that year, not just wasting the time up front.

766
00:46:55,280 --> 00:47:00,840
But this is probably as good as it's gonna get. Yeah, agreed, Uh,

767
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:04,280
something that better get better. I mean, these guys better

768
00:47:04,639 --> 00:47:09,199
find something great because, uh you know its Andre three thousand.

769
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:10,039
These guys are.

770
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:11,559
Speaker 4: Cooler than cool right now.

771
00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:16,519
Speaker 1: Michael Bush one thirty five, two thirty three, one seventy three,

772
00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:21,440
twenty percent strikeout rate, eleven point seven percent walk rate.

773
00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:25,480
I mean he he's doing nothing for fantasy owners last

774
00:47:25,679 --> 00:47:26,400
just right now?

775
00:47:28,079 --> 00:47:30,760
Speaker 4: Is there is there any concern here for you? Is

776
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:33,239
there anything he's gonna turn around? Can you can.

777
00:47:33,079 --> 00:47:35,760
Speaker 1: You tell me he's not gonna be just a terrible,

778
00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:39,360
terrible pick gray and an awful person for me to

779
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:40,320
have across the board.

780
00:47:42,559 --> 00:47:46,519
Speaker 3: I would say, well, well, we'll stay with one guy

781
00:47:46,559 --> 00:47:48,280
at a time, but a lot of these guys are

782
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:51,960
gonna be like massive buyes for me. I think I

783
00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:54,239
think Michael Bush is a big time by. I don't

784
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:57,559
I don't see any reason why he can't get better.

785
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,960
It's like he's just he's had two bad weeks. If

786
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:05,039
this was two bad weeks in the middle of August,

787
00:48:05,119 --> 00:48:07,280
you would it may not even be a blip on

788
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:09,440
your radar. You may be like, oh, yeah, you had

789
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,760
two bad weeks, but whatever, He's had a great first

790
00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:15,960
three and a half months. So I would be buying

791
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:19,280
Mike Bush, Michael Bush, whatever he wants to call himself,

792
00:48:19,679 --> 00:48:23,320
I would be I would be buying in every league

793
00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:27,119
across the board. He looks he looks fine to me.

794
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:32,280
Obviously he's struggling when it comes to, you know, the

795
00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:35,280
stats we care about, But I think he's gonna come

796
00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:35,679
out of it.

797
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:40,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I will say as ay, Michael Bush owner

798
00:48:41,159 --> 00:48:46,079
and highly rated this year. He had these times last

799
00:48:46,119 --> 00:48:49,480
year where he was he just looked bad and then

800
00:48:49,519 --> 00:48:51,760
he snaps out of it. He goes on on a

801
00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:54,599
great bender. So just waiting for that to come around

802
00:48:54,599 --> 00:48:57,039
and for the good part of Michael Bush to show up.

803
00:48:57,360 --> 00:49:00,840
All the numbers looking line, the launchingle looks fine, average

804
00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:03,559
exit blosity is down as well as hard hit, but

805
00:49:04,079 --> 00:49:06,920
has to be expected when somebody's hitting one thirty five,

806
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:09,719
he does have one to seventy one bad bit, you

807
00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:12,320
know that everything should kind of start to turn around.

808
00:49:12,519 --> 00:49:15,519
Speaker 4: Kay rate, kay, raid and walk right, look in control.

809
00:49:15,639 --> 00:49:17,360
Speaker 1: I'm with you. I feel like Michael Bush is a

810
00:49:17,519 --> 00:49:19,639
buye or maybe even just a pick up in the

811
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:22,440
shallow ed uugh league where somebody may just be done

812
00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:25,960
with looking at his numbers for now. Another guy that

813
00:49:26,079 --> 00:49:28,800
some people are probably getting very frustrated with and a

814
00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:32,079
lot of people have had a as a breakout player,

815
00:49:32,199 --> 00:49:34,920
or I guess even more of a breakout player, is

816
00:49:35,039 --> 00:49:38,880
Vinnie Pascentino. Zero's across the board on home runs it

817
00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:42,760
stolen basis. He's hitting one fifty three two forty six nine.

818
00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:45,559
Is Kate raid is sitting at twenty three point two,

819
00:49:46,159 --> 00:49:48,719
which doesn't sound bad across the board, but for him

820
00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:52,639
is pretty bad. Ten point walk rate point one percent

821
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:55,559
walk rate is good. What's your thoughts here on your

822
00:49:55,599 --> 00:49:56,159
boy Vinn P.

823
00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:01,360
Speaker 3: I wonder if he could do a couple of shots

824
00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:07,079
of espresso before every advounce. That's my big takeaway from

825
00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:10,760
his early going. Actually, as you were reading his numbers,

826
00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:17,480
I didn't realize he was even doing that well. I

827
00:50:17,559 --> 00:50:21,840
thought it was even worse. Yeah, I mean again, I

828
00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:24,239
feel like he's just he's a He's a big time

829
00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:27,920
buy for me. If you look at his April numbers

830
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:31,199
from last year, he hit one seventy seven in April.

831
00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:35,639
He just starts off slow. Unfortunately in May he hit

832
00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:40,440
three thirty. So you know, I think if I could

833
00:50:40,559 --> 00:50:43,760
buy him in any league, I would. I you know,

834
00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:46,239
absolutely have to hold You have to hold tight for

835
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:51,039
right now because I think things will get better. You know. Also,

836
00:50:52,159 --> 00:50:55,760
he was really bad in April of last year, but

837
00:50:55,920 --> 00:51:00,960
he didn't really get great until like towards the second half.

838
00:51:01,119 --> 00:51:05,360
So uh, yeah, you gotta you gotta remain patient here,

839
00:51:05,559 --> 00:51:10,000
I am. I'm still in on Vinnie Pascatino. Yeah, if my.

840
00:51:10,079 --> 00:51:11,440
Speaker 1: Second half you mean August?

841
00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:14,920
Speaker 4: Yes, uh, that's that's when he got really good. Was

842
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:15,920
was August?

843
00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:21,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I uh, I'm gonna say I did not believe

844
00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:26,159
in Vinnie's breakout necessarily last year. I'm I'm just gonna

845
00:51:26,159 --> 00:51:30,559
take this as that's complete confirmation bias and say I

846
00:51:30,599 --> 00:51:33,440
would not really buy him at least a draft cost.

847
00:51:33,639 --> 00:51:37,719
Speaker 4: If you could get him at a significant discount.

848
00:51:37,760 --> 00:51:41,239
Speaker 1: Absolutely, Like Michael Bush, I I would still pretty much

849
00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:43,960
buy a draft cost because I thought his draft cost

850
00:51:44,119 --> 00:51:47,079
was probably too low to begin with. I thought Vennie's

851
00:51:47,119 --> 00:51:49,960
was too high, and I'm not gonna pay that right now.

852
00:51:50,039 --> 00:51:51,320
It sounds like you would though.

853
00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:55,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I would pay Uh, I don't think you

854
00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:58,119
have to, but I would, I would pay a draft cost.

855
00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:01,199
I still think he's to be fine. I mean he's

856
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:07,239
a he's a solid like I think twenty seven homer,

857
00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:14,760
two seventy five hitter with good counting stats sort of

858
00:52:15,079 --> 00:52:17,599
at like a baseline, I think there's upside from there,

859
00:52:17,679 --> 00:52:19,280
so I would be, Yeah, I would be buying. I

860
00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:21,239
would be buying at draft costs. Yeah.

861
00:52:22,039 --> 00:52:22,239
Speaker 2: Yeah.

862
00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:26,400
Speaker 1: I don't know that I believe he's any of those numbers,

863
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:29,679
so I would not be. But there we are.

864
00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:32,440
Speaker 4: Let's move on to somebody I think we both liked.

865
00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:34,480
Speaker 1: I don't know if we liked him at draft costs

866
00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:37,840
because that was kind of kind of ridiculous of different drafts.

867
00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:41,719
But Jack Kaglione two twenty nine this year, three fifteen,

868
00:52:42,159 --> 00:52:44,800
three thirteen, thirty one and a half since strikeout rate,

869
00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:49,880
thirty seven point four percent walk rate, and unfortunately that

870
00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:52,679
comes with a three fifty five babbitt along with it,

871
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:57,679
so it's not even a direct batted balls and play.

872
00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:02,679
Look issue here with with Jack Kaggs, But what what's

873
00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:03,480
your thoughts are you?

874
00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:05,039
Speaker 4: Is this another guy that you're in on?

875
00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:10,920
Speaker 3: He has zero RBIs oh man, no wonder why my

876
00:53:11,079 --> 00:53:15,400
teams are doing so bad. Oh my god, he's been miserable.

877
00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:21,159
You know, his hard hit is the three the three

878
00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:25,280
times he's actually made contact, his hard hits thirty eight

879
00:53:25,360 --> 00:53:29,400
point seven percent, So that's good. Uh, you know this

880
00:53:29,559 --> 00:53:32,920
is this is miserable. Man. This is really bad like

881
00:53:33,159 --> 00:53:38,719
his you know, it's hopefully it's just a two week,

882
00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:43,920
terrible slump that he's gonna come out of because you know,

883
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:47,280
I mean his launch angle is two point eight. I

884
00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:50,119
mean it's just terrible and not not that his launch

885
00:53:50,159 --> 00:53:52,440
angle last year was very good. I don't know. I'm

886
00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:55,719
right now, I'm like, I'm kind of struggling to figure

887
00:53:55,719 --> 00:53:59,440
out exactly why I liked him, to be honest, he's

888
00:53:59,599 --> 00:54:02,840
probably going to be droppable if he has another week

889
00:54:03,039 --> 00:54:06,000
like this. I think he's probably droppable in most leagues,

890
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:12,239
in most mixed leagues, at least maybe a fifteen team mix.

891
00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:14,599
You hold him on your bench, but you can't start

892
00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:19,000
him right now. I mean, he's struggling so terribly. So yeah,

893
00:54:19,079 --> 00:54:24,559
I'm I'm less confident in you know, cagleone coming out

894
00:54:24,599 --> 00:54:24,760
of this.

895
00:54:26,079 --> 00:54:28,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, the longe angles was dragging me down, and it

896
00:54:28,519 --> 00:54:31,000
wasn't something that he had an issue with in the miners.

897
00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:33,760
It just since he's come to the majors, the launch

898
00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:37,960
angle has been extremely low. The ground ball rate has

899
00:54:38,079 --> 00:54:42,760
been ridiculously high. And that's okay a little bit if

900
00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:48,000
there is also a generally equal like flyball rate, because

901
00:54:48,039 --> 00:54:50,559
there's there's guys who will just hit ground balls and

902
00:54:50,639 --> 00:54:54,840
then only fly balls because they have a high launch angle.

903
00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:58,320
Actually he's not doing that. He's said he line drives

904
00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:02,440
ground balls and no fight balls, which is, you know,

905
00:55:02,559 --> 00:55:06,960
it's okay if you're like a speedster. He's not necessarily that.

906
00:55:07,320 --> 00:55:10,159
He needs to get the launch angle up. I still

907
00:55:10,280 --> 00:55:12,960
like him as a prospect, and I think he can

908
00:55:13,119 --> 00:55:16,679
turn it around, but that launch angle needs to come up.

909
00:55:16,719 --> 00:55:18,360
He needs to figure out how to put the ball

910
00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:22,519
in the air at the major league level, and I

911
00:55:22,599 --> 00:55:23,679
don't know if that's happening.

912
00:55:24,199 --> 00:55:26,239
Speaker 4: I don't know if I'm necessarily as is.

913
00:55:26,280 --> 00:55:31,360
Speaker 3: It that I managed to draft twenty twenty five Jordan Walker.

914
00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:39,320
Speaker 1: Like twenty seventeen Yondi Diaz, like I'm looking at you

915
00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:39,599
know what?

916
00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:42,280
Speaker 3: I look forward to everyone else telling me how great

917
00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:47,519
cag leone is next year on their team, Like three

918
00:55:47,639 --> 00:55:51,199
years from now, it will be wonderful when I don't

919
00:55:51,239 --> 00:55:54,760
have him next year when he's fixed, if he goes

920
00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:57,199
to drive line, I'm drafting him in the first round

921
00:55:57,320 --> 00:56:00,679
just everywhere, all right.

922
00:56:00,639 --> 00:56:03,480
Speaker 1: So you know you don't like tags, I'm not cutting

923
00:56:03,599 --> 00:56:06,320
him as fast as it sounds like you are, just

924
00:56:06,400 --> 00:56:08,440
to see if the launch angle comes around.

925
00:56:08,599 --> 00:56:11,920
Speaker 4: But I could see I could definitely see it in

926
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:15,199
the shallow enough league where there's so many good options

927
00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:18,159
out there on the wire. It's it does feel like

928
00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:22,079
it's gonna take a mechanical adjustment at this point. To

929
00:56:22,199 --> 00:56:24,519
the point of Jodan Walker, who we let off the

930
00:56:24,559 --> 00:56:28,199
show with, like it feels like there's something mechanical going on,

931
00:56:28,679 --> 00:56:32,440
or like he's not picking up the drop from major

932
00:56:32,519 --> 00:56:36,840
league pitches right now. You know, I'm just not sure

933
00:56:37,199 --> 00:56:39,480
what what his issue is.

934
00:56:41,039 --> 00:56:42,800
Speaker 2: A guy that we we all.

935
00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:45,920
Speaker 1: Said he couldn't possibly repeat what he did last season,

936
00:56:46,119 --> 00:56:48,599
but thought he would still provide value.

937
00:56:49,159 --> 00:56:49,639
Speaker 6: He is not.

938
00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:53,639
Speaker 1: And that is Josh Naylor, who is zero's for home

939
00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:56,800
run stone bases as well. He's hitting one o two,

940
00:56:57,159 --> 00:57:00,320
one nine one o two. He does only have a

941
00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:03,239
sixteen point seven percent strikeout rate and a nine point

942
00:57:03,599 --> 00:57:04,679
one percent walk rate.

943
00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:05,880
Speaker 4: All that's pretty in line.

944
00:57:07,079 --> 00:57:09,559
Speaker 1: You know, I will say it doesn't look too bad here,

945
00:57:09,679 --> 00:57:11,280
But what are your thoughts here on Josh Nahler.

946
00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:14,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I think you gotta I think you

947
00:57:14,599 --> 00:57:17,320
gotta buy here as well. I think, uh, you know,

948
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:23,440
we've seen him do as you know, not necessarily what

949
00:57:23,519 --> 00:57:26,719
he did last year, but we've seen him be valuable

950
00:57:27,559 --> 00:57:31,239
for fantasy for you know, quite a few years now,

951
00:57:31,360 --> 00:57:33,239
so I think you've got to trust that he's still

952
00:57:33,639 --> 00:57:36,000
you know, he's only twenty. He's twenty eight right now.

953
00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:39,599
He's twenty eight years old. He'll turn twenty nine in June.

954
00:57:39,719 --> 00:57:44,119
But anyway, I yeah, I think he's too he's too

955
00:57:44,519 --> 00:57:47,519
valuable for fantasy for the last couple of years to

956
00:57:47,639 --> 00:57:51,079
be like, oh he's just cooked now. I just don't

957
00:57:51,119 --> 00:57:53,440
see it. I mean, he's definitely he's had a bad

958
00:57:53,519 --> 00:57:56,159
two weeks, I think, is where we're at with Josh Nower.

959
00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:02,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can see that, and I would I I agree.

960
00:58:02,559 --> 00:58:04,639
I mean, there's I don't think he's just cooked all

961
00:58:04,679 --> 00:58:09,000
of a sudden. I've never really liked Josh Taylor just

962
00:58:09,039 --> 00:58:12,440
because I don't know exactly where the value is coming from.

963
00:58:12,519 --> 00:58:16,480
I just know he's going to eventually somehow some way

964
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:20,280
kind of figure it out and give give me value.

965
00:58:21,559 --> 00:58:25,320
Speaker 4: Would you rather have him or you know the other two?

966
00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:27,719
Speaker 1: First base we've talked about We've talked about Michael Bush,

967
00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:28,760
and we've talked about VNP.

968
00:58:29,679 --> 00:58:31,719
Speaker 4: What's your what's your order on those three?

969
00:58:32,159 --> 00:58:35,679
Speaker 3: Wow, first base was bad coming into the year.

970
00:58:35,880 --> 00:58:38,360
Speaker 4: It's it's it's getting worse.

971
00:58:38,880 --> 00:58:41,960
Speaker 3: It sounds it sounds like first base is a real

972
00:58:42,239 --> 00:58:48,039
like a bunch of land mines here, I'm looking at uh,

973
00:58:48,199 --> 00:58:50,320
I'm looking at first base on a player raider to

974
00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:54,079
see who the top five are Ben Rice, Yondi, Diaz

975
00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:59,360
South Stewart, Matt Olson, and Liam Hicks. So yeah, not

976
00:58:59,719 --> 00:59:02,480
not the top five first basemen you were probably drafting,

977
00:59:02,679 --> 00:59:04,239
follow followed by.

978
00:59:04,559 --> 00:59:10,519
Speaker 1: Josh Bell, Christian Walker, Ryan O'Hearn, Jake Bowers, Dominic Smith,

979
00:59:10,920 --> 00:59:13,000
and Wilson Contrerais.

980
00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:18,119
Speaker 3: I'm Annix Smith? Yes, So yeah, it's still early obviously,

981
00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:24,320
Like if you know, we have a fifteen day player raider,

982
00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:26,559
we have a seven day player raider. Like if you

983
00:59:26,639 --> 00:59:28,440
were to look at some of those things like in

984
00:59:28,519 --> 00:59:31,159
the middle of the year, they would look this crazy.

985
00:59:31,519 --> 00:59:36,840
So it's really just like I'm still buying Josh Naylor,

986
00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:42,159
I'm still buying Pascatina, I'm still buying Michael Bush. I

987
00:59:42,199 --> 00:59:48,159
would probably not change their ranking. So in the preseason,

988
00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:53,079
I believe I had a nailor Pascatino Bush. I want

989
00:59:53,159 --> 00:59:55,679
to change it from that, I you know, I would

990
00:59:55,719 --> 00:59:58,800
still I mean, I don't think you have to pay

991
00:59:58,960 --> 01:00:02,199
draft costs because is I think people are probably panicking

992
01:00:02,679 --> 01:00:05,119
who have them, but I think they're gonna be okay.

993
01:00:06,599 --> 01:00:09,119
Speaker 1: I would say that you don't, but first base across

994
01:00:09,159 --> 01:00:11,960
the board is terrible, so you may you may still

995
01:00:12,039 --> 01:00:15,639
have to pay kind of draft dish costs for them.

996
01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:20,400
If you know, people do like these guys. I would

997
01:00:20,440 --> 01:00:23,559
say that again, I have agreement. I think you kind

998
01:00:23,599 --> 01:00:25,639
of keep the order that you had. I think we

999
01:00:25,760 --> 01:00:28,000
both had Nayler that's top. I then had Bush and

1000
01:00:28,079 --> 01:00:31,159
then Vinny p. But they're all kind of in that

1001
01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:35,199
same grouping and I don't think there's a whole lot separating.

1002
01:00:35,320 --> 01:00:38,280
Naylor again is literally there because of his track record

1003
01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:40,960
of just finding a way to give you value, and

1004
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:45,400
I think you still will somebody that does not have

1005
01:00:45,519 --> 01:00:48,599
a great track record of providing draft value. Gray is

1006
01:00:48,719 --> 01:00:52,920
Byron Buxton, mainly because of injury, but right now it's

1007
01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:59,159
because of production. He has zero's again, uh eight two

1008
01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:03,440
seventy three k rate walk rate pretty much in line here.

1009
01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:06,199
What are your thoughts on Byron Buckston. I don't think

1010
01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:11,639
you were a fan preseason for just the injury and inconsistencies.

1011
01:01:11,760 --> 01:01:15,440
But this isn't what we're gonna get, right, No.

1012
01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:17,800
Speaker 3: You know, I don't think it's gonna it's what we're

1013
01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:22,280
gonna get. But he has had miserable seasons in the past,

1014
01:01:22,400 --> 01:01:25,920
so you know, I didn't like Buxton coming into the year.

1015
01:01:26,639 --> 01:01:29,199
I would actually if if someone gave me draft class,

1016
01:01:29,239 --> 01:01:32,320
I would be selling I you know, because like this

1017
01:01:32,440 --> 01:01:34,960
is the kind of guy where it's like he could

1018
01:01:35,039 --> 01:01:39,119
have like a cold like month and then get injured

1019
01:01:39,239 --> 01:01:42,000
for a month and then and now you're looking at

1020
01:01:42,119 --> 01:01:45,800
like June or something or July or you know, it's

1021
01:01:45,880 --> 01:01:48,639
like I don't trust him enough to be like, oh,

1022
01:01:48,719 --> 01:01:52,000
he'll be fine and he'll give me. You know what

1023
01:01:52,199 --> 01:01:55,079
he gave me last year. I don't trust it. I

1024
01:01:55,119 --> 01:01:59,760
would be out. I would be selling low. Possibly, you know,

1025
01:02:00,039 --> 01:02:02,000
depends on what you can get in the trade, but

1026
01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:03,760
I would be selling.

1027
01:02:03,880 --> 01:02:08,480
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, I think we're just the opposites today.

1028
01:02:08,559 --> 01:02:10,840
Gray I think I actually would be buying on busting

1029
01:02:10,880 --> 01:02:14,599
because I think the panic is out there. The Byron

1030
01:02:14,639 --> 01:02:17,280
Buxton is one of those players that we've all been

1031
01:02:17,360 --> 01:02:21,400
burned by at different times, and whether you believed him

1032
01:02:21,639 --> 01:02:21,840
or not.

1033
01:02:22,039 --> 01:02:26,719
Speaker 4: This season like that, that history exists, so you are

1034
01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:27,480
taking some risk.

1035
01:02:27,559 --> 01:02:31,599
Speaker 1: He's not somebody who's playing one hundred and sixty five games,

1036
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:34,079
so every time that he goes out and is bad,

1037
01:02:34,639 --> 01:02:37,480
there's a little bit of additional risk. That being said,

1038
01:02:37,480 --> 01:02:41,199
everything kind of looks in line. This is not abnormal

1039
01:02:41,280 --> 01:02:44,079
for him to have a bad month and then I

1040
01:02:44,159 --> 01:02:47,880
have a great month. This is just Byron Buxton. So

1041
01:02:48,119 --> 01:02:50,119
I think I would actually buy Buxton just on the

1042
01:02:50,199 --> 01:02:54,599
fact that good times are probably ahead, either that or

1043
01:02:54,599 --> 01:02:57,800
an ile stant and if he's on the al, you

1044
01:02:57,880 --> 01:03:00,039
can move him there and pick up somebody else. So

1045
01:03:00,760 --> 01:03:04,039
I think this I would actually potentially be buying if

1046
01:03:04,119 --> 01:03:11,079
the asking price is dropping significantly somebody else that was

1047
01:03:12,199 --> 01:03:15,199
you know, he's he was a sure fire first rounder.

1048
01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:20,079
Then there reskuling some concern with the preseason injury. There

1049
01:03:20,119 --> 01:03:22,280
may be some more concern now because he is hitting

1050
01:03:22,360 --> 01:03:25,079
one eight eight, three oh seven two sixty.

1051
01:03:24,880 --> 01:03:27,400
Speaker 4: Six and that is Francisco Lindor.

1052
01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:31,639
Speaker 1: This has been he has been the model of consistency,

1053
01:03:31,760 --> 01:03:35,800
at least since the uh stolen base rules got changed. Gray,

1054
01:03:37,280 --> 01:03:39,599
is everything going to get back on track? Or is

1055
01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:42,119
thirty two of the year that Lindor starts to fall off?

1056
01:03:43,559 --> 01:03:48,360
Speaker 3: Uh? I, you know, like with the habit bone injury

1057
01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:56,079
that usually zaps people's power. So I would say, I mean,

1058
01:03:56,199 --> 01:03:59,360
I I mean, I think he's gonna be okay. I

1059
01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:03,239
just like you, you might get more of like a

1060
01:04:03,480 --> 01:04:09,719
twenty homer season with you know, maybe twenty five steals,

1061
01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:13,440
And I think the average is, you know, he's never

1062
01:04:13,559 --> 01:04:16,079
really like a huge average guy. So if he hits

1063
01:04:16,159 --> 01:04:21,320
two fifty five, like you know, twenty twenty, even give

1064
01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:26,480
him thirty steals twenty thirty two fifty five. I mean,

1065
01:04:26,599 --> 01:04:29,840
it's okay, it's not. I don't think it's what everyone

1066
01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:34,239
was expecting prior to the injury if you drafted early.

1067
01:04:35,199 --> 01:04:38,920
Uh So, yeah, I mean I'm a little bit concerned.

1068
01:04:38,960 --> 01:04:42,159
To be honest, I think he's gonna be okay to

1069
01:04:42,280 --> 01:04:44,679
a certain extent. Like I don't think you should be

1070
01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:49,039
like panic selling and like, you know, getting like thirty

1071
01:04:49,119 --> 01:04:52,159
cents on the dollar. But I would be a little

1072
01:04:52,159 --> 01:04:52,800
bit concerned.

1073
01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:56,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, it's shortstop. Would you rather have him

1074
01:04:56,880 --> 01:05:00,760
or you know, off to a good start, and uh,

1075
01:05:01,119 --> 01:05:06,320
zach Netto, I would go.

1076
01:05:06,599 --> 01:05:07,760
Speaker 3: I would actually go Nedo.

1077
01:05:08,840 --> 01:05:10,559
Speaker 4: I think I would too, and I I.

1078
01:05:10,679 --> 01:05:12,760
Speaker 1: Want to say I ranked them that way in the preseason,

1079
01:05:12,840 --> 01:05:18,639
but I love Zach Netto. How about him or the

1080
01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:20,599
Speedsters Xavier Edwards?

1081
01:05:24,519 --> 01:05:26,880
Speaker 3: I would go Lindor.

1082
01:05:27,960 --> 01:05:31,639
Speaker 4: Okay, Fellow veteran shortstop Trade.

1083
01:05:31,440 --> 01:05:40,039
Speaker 3: Turner, I would go That's a tough one. I think

1084
01:05:40,039 --> 01:05:43,079
I would still go Lindor, even though I mean it's

1085
01:05:43,280 --> 01:05:46,719
it's closed, but yeah, Trade Turner's age worries me a

1086
01:05:46,800 --> 01:05:49,400
little bit. And uh yeah, I would go Lindor.

1087
01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:53,679
Speaker 4: I think I would go Turner, but I don't I

1088
01:05:53,760 --> 01:05:56,159
don't really have a qualm with that either way.

1089
01:05:57,440 --> 01:06:01,559
Speaker 1: One more, would you rather have have him or Corey

1090
01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:04,079
Seeger who's off to a pretty season start?

1091
01:06:07,719 --> 01:06:08,639
Speaker 3: I would go Lindoor.

1092
01:06:09,559 --> 01:06:13,280
Speaker 1: Okay, I would go Indoor there just we know, see

1093
01:06:13,320 --> 01:06:17,039
you're especially gonna get hurt unfortunately, So in that case,

1094
01:06:17,079 --> 01:06:20,400
I would go Lindoor. But I think we've figured out

1095
01:06:20,440 --> 01:06:22,840
a little bit of a range here. Let's go ahead

1096
01:06:22,880 --> 01:06:24,639
and sagged off it up and get out of here.

1097
01:06:24,800 --> 01:06:25,039
Speaker 6: Great.

1098
01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:29,320
Speaker 1: This is not really anything of note in regards to saves,

1099
01:06:29,440 --> 01:06:32,320
because he's owned everywhere, it was drafted everywhere.

1100
01:06:32,440 --> 01:06:35,599
Speaker 4: But something that needs some time. I feel like, is

1101
01:06:36,119 --> 01:06:41,559
Mason Miller seven or third this year? Nineteen strikeouts gun

1102
01:06:41,800 --> 01:06:44,880
walk That is a seventy nine point.

1103
01:06:44,760 --> 01:06:49,480
Speaker 1: Two percent strikeout rate, golflap, golf plat for Mason Miller.

1104
01:06:49,559 --> 01:06:54,199
He's been He's been absolutely phenomenal this season. Let's move

1105
01:06:54,280 --> 01:06:56,480
to the guys who have not been phenomenal. Gray Over

1106
01:06:56,599 --> 01:07:00,599
in Washington, Dus Farland gets a save on Sunday. Does

1107
01:07:00,639 --> 01:07:04,960
this feel like he's maybe taking a spot or do

1108
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:06,280
you still like Clayton Peter here?

1109
01:07:07,360 --> 01:07:07,519
Speaker 6: Uh?

1110
01:07:09,199 --> 01:07:12,559
Speaker 3: I think, you know, unless it's a deep league where

1111
01:07:12,599 --> 01:07:16,519
you really need saves, I'm probably ignoring the Nationals and

1112
01:07:17,760 --> 01:07:22,039
I would probably go beater though, but not with any

1113
01:07:22,159 --> 01:07:23,039
real confidence.

1114
01:07:24,320 --> 01:07:27,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say the same thing, but you know,

1115
01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:29,880
and I think in a deeper league, guess Barlin is

1116
01:07:29,880 --> 01:07:32,320
definitely worth a look if you're you know, if every

1117
01:07:32,519 --> 01:07:36,159
save is worthwhile. Over in Tampa Bay, we get the

1118
01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:38,679
confirmation that we didn't need, which was that they are

1119
01:07:38,760 --> 01:07:42,440
going with a matchup based approach. Per Kevin Cash who

1120
01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:47,800
do you like here among the number of relievers, Griffin Jacks,

1121
01:07:47,880 --> 01:07:50,559
Garrett Clevenger, Brian Baker, And when you say it is

1122
01:07:50,639 --> 01:07:52,239
coming back, who do you like?

1123
01:07:53,719 --> 01:07:57,320
Speaker 3: I wish. I wish someone who's smarter than me would

1124
01:07:57,400 --> 01:08:00,519
do a breakdown of how many wins kept and cash

1125
01:08:00,840 --> 01:08:05,400
has gained for the raise in his tenure versus lost

1126
01:08:05,559 --> 01:08:09,639
for the raise, because I just I mean, it's so

1127
01:08:09,840 --> 01:08:15,480
clearly Brian Baker is the better reliever right now. So

1128
01:08:15,599 --> 01:08:18,640
it's like, matchup base for what reason?

1129
01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:19,039
Speaker 2: Man?

1130
01:08:19,479 --> 01:08:22,199
Speaker 3: Like, Like what reason? Just so you can be like,

1131
01:08:22,520 --> 01:08:24,720
so you can feel like you're doing some managing. Like

1132
01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:27,600
it doesn't make like Griffin Jacks has been awful, Like

1133
01:08:27,720 --> 01:08:30,680
what like what are you trying to prove? Like Brian

1134
01:08:30,760 --> 01:08:37,479
Baker has been good and is good? Yeah, yeah, it's like,

1135
01:08:37,760 --> 01:08:40,600
what are you doing? Man? It's just stupid. I don't know,

1136
01:08:41,279 --> 01:08:44,800
it's just it's frustrating. I don't know. Brian Baker would

1137
01:08:44,800 --> 01:08:46,760
be the guy I would pick up and I would

1138
01:08:46,760 --> 01:08:49,880
ignore the rest of them, except you said I would

1139
01:08:49,880 --> 01:08:53,039
put on my il slot if I if I had room.

1140
01:08:53,159 --> 01:08:56,800
But it's not going to get cleaner once you said

1141
01:08:56,840 --> 01:08:57,479
it comes back.

1142
01:08:59,399 --> 01:09:01,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I hope it does. I hope you say this

1143
01:09:01,920 --> 01:09:04,560
just takes it, but I would genuinely agree. It's it's

1144
01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:07,079
Tampa Bay. It's not they they never have a closer.

1145
01:09:07,119 --> 01:09:09,479
It just doesn't happen. Even when they have a closer.

1146
01:09:10,159 --> 01:09:12,720
It's not some a team that we can say the

1147
01:09:12,760 --> 01:09:15,199
same thing about is Minnesota. But I'm gonna ask you,

1148
01:09:16,079 --> 01:09:17,199
is Cole Sands the closer?

1149
01:09:18,880 --> 01:09:19,079
Speaker 6: Yeah?

1150
01:09:19,359 --> 01:09:21,640
Speaker 3: I would say Cole Sands, Yeah.

1151
01:09:21,760 --> 01:09:23,760
Speaker 4: I think he's the closest. Thing is they have to it?

1152
01:09:24,359 --> 01:09:27,039
Speaker 1: You want to grab up Taylor Rogers going ahead, But

1153
01:09:27,399 --> 01:09:30,520
I think col Sands is the guy over in Kansas City.

1154
01:09:30,680 --> 01:09:33,680
Lucas Erseg inherited the role when Stem has got hurt.

1155
01:09:33,840 --> 01:09:36,560
But is that Steva is gonna get it back when

1156
01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:37,520
Erg returns.

1157
01:09:39,760 --> 01:09:42,960
Speaker 3: I wouldn't get it back to him. I think I

1158
01:09:43,039 --> 01:09:47,439
think he might actually because I think just because the contracts,

1159
01:09:48,600 --> 01:09:53,159
because Steve is I think is under a contract that

1160
01:09:53,560 --> 01:09:56,640
makes it more feasible for him to be the closer.

1161
01:09:56,720 --> 01:10:02,359
But ersg I would just grab ersa hold and hope

1162
01:10:02,399 --> 01:10:04,640
that the Royals make the right decision and just keep

1163
01:10:05,199 --> 01:10:05,880
as the closer.

1164
01:10:07,039 --> 01:10:10,359
Speaker 1: You know what, colssta Venz is one hundred and sixty

1165
01:10:10,560 --> 01:10:14,239
two year A taking over. Now, it's just this one

1166
01:10:14,319 --> 01:10:16,800
that he's a third of an inn't I don't mean that?

1167
01:10:17,399 --> 01:10:20,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, Collins, that's Devez has been very good for two seasons,

1168
01:10:21,239 --> 01:10:22,920
so but yes, I would.

1169
01:10:23,039 --> 01:10:25,159
Speaker 1: I would tend the agree. I think they're going to

1170
01:10:25,199 --> 01:10:28,960
give them back the job, even if er probably should

1171
01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:32,760
have been the one. UH this year over for the

1172
01:10:32,920 --> 01:10:39,760
A's does joel Cole Konel Is he the closer here

1173
01:10:39,840 --> 01:10:43,520
Gray he got you gotta save? Or you know? The

1174
01:10:43,680 --> 01:10:47,479
mix of Hogan, Harris, Elvis Alvarado we can we can,

1175
01:10:47,600 --> 01:10:49,760
I guess though, Scott Barlow of that group, if we

1176
01:10:49,880 --> 01:10:53,159
want to, what are your thoughts here on the A's.

1177
01:10:54,680 --> 01:10:59,840
Speaker 3: UH, I would probably say no one. But if I

1178
01:11:00,119 --> 01:11:03,560
had to choose, i'd probably go Hogan Harris, I guess,

1179
01:11:03,840 --> 01:11:07,720
I mean, no real no confidence in that, but yeah,

1180
01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:10,600
i'd probably go Harris, even though I don't really want

1181
01:11:10,640 --> 01:11:11,079
any of them.

1182
01:11:12,239 --> 01:11:14,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't feel great about this one either. I

1183
01:11:15,199 --> 01:11:18,399
think I would go with Harris as well. Elverado having

1184
01:11:18,479 --> 01:11:21,239
bad Honestly, none of them have been that bad, so

1185
01:11:22,119 --> 01:11:24,800
there's worse things you could do. But you also have

1186
01:11:24,920 --> 01:11:27,640
to know when they're at home, you probably don't want

1187
01:11:27,640 --> 01:11:30,119
any of them in your lineup, just for the blow

1188
01:11:30,199 --> 01:11:33,960
up factor. Over at Houston, Brian and Bray who continues

1189
01:11:34,039 --> 01:11:39,880
to struggle? Will they continue to give him option opportunities? Probably?

1190
01:11:40,039 --> 01:11:42,840
Speaker 3: But who else should the people pick up? I would

1191
01:11:42,920 --> 01:11:48,279
go with Brian King. And then if I would say

1192
01:11:48,640 --> 01:11:51,680
Josh hater is you know, I mean clearly he's going

1193
01:11:51,720 --> 01:11:54,279
to be the closer once he returns, So I would

1194
01:11:54,319 --> 01:11:57,880
go Brian King or no one. I don't think Brian

1195
01:11:57,960 --> 01:12:01,720
and Bray. Brian Abray for me is like I'm actually,

1196
01:12:01,960 --> 01:12:04,199
when we get off this podcast, I'm gonna drop him

1197
01:12:04,239 --> 01:12:08,359
officially in our RCL league because he's been nothing but terrible.

1198
01:12:09,119 --> 01:12:13,319
Speaker 1: He has been just terrible, right and we know he's

1199
01:12:13,359 --> 01:12:18,840
eventually losing his job even good. Over over in San Francisco,

1200
01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:22,159
Ryan Walker has been struggling. Are you grabbing up Caleb

1201
01:12:22,279 --> 01:12:23,079
Killian everywhere?

1202
01:12:23,720 --> 01:12:27,960
Speaker 3: M M Well, I did pick up Killian in our

1203
01:12:28,119 --> 01:12:32,039
RCL league, but as previously mentioned, my team is terrible,

1204
01:12:32,399 --> 01:12:38,479
so I would go I think I would go Walker still,

1205
01:12:38,840 --> 01:12:43,920
but yeah, Killian's on my radar for sure. I I

1206
01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:46,880
don't think they really I don't think they feel like

1207
01:12:48,520 --> 01:12:54,319
they're sold on Walker. Walker's been okay and like he's

1208
01:12:54,359 --> 01:12:57,319
striking people out is you know, his stuff looks fine,

1209
01:12:58,239 --> 01:13:02,000
but he as giving up a couple you know, he's

1210
01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:06,000
giving up some runs. So yeah, i'd probably go Walker still,

1211
01:13:06,119 --> 01:13:07,520
but Killian's on my radar.

1212
01:13:08,560 --> 01:13:11,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would grab Killian pretty much everywhere if you

1213
01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:14,239
you know, if he's just sitting there, he's been good.

1214
01:13:14,359 --> 01:13:16,319
Speaker 4: So even if you you know, even if he.

1215
01:13:16,319 --> 01:13:19,359
Speaker 1: Doesn't end up getting the role immediately, you're not hurting

1216
01:13:19,439 --> 01:13:21,520
yourself like grabbing him and starting him in a reliever

1217
01:13:21,600 --> 01:13:25,840
spot over in Pittsburgh. In Santana blows to say versus

1218
01:13:25,960 --> 01:13:28,279
the Cobs, is it time to pick up somebody else

1219
01:13:28,319 --> 01:13:28,880
in this bullpen?

1220
01:13:29,800 --> 01:13:35,560
Speaker 3: Uh? I think it's Gregory Sodo or Santana, I'd probably

1221
01:13:35,680 --> 01:13:40,840
go I'd probably still go to Santana, but I mean

1222
01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:45,159
Santana couldn't make it like reasonable for them to go

1223
01:13:45,239 --> 01:13:47,960
to Sodo. I mean, they seem like they were interested

1224
01:13:48,000 --> 01:13:51,520
in going to Sodo, and then Santana, like you know,

1225
01:13:52,439 --> 01:13:54,760
was thrown out there for a save and he blew

1226
01:13:54,840 --> 01:13:57,600
it like you mentioned. So it's like, if you know,

1227
01:13:57,760 --> 01:14:01,359
if Sodo gets the job done, they might just go Sodo.

1228
01:14:02,079 --> 01:14:05,920
So Santana is very tenuous, but still the closer.

1229
01:14:05,960 --> 01:14:10,439
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, I would go with Santana as the closer,

1230
01:14:10,520 --> 01:14:12,800
but I don't necessarily want to be starting him if

1231
01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:15,119
I don't have to, and I would definitely grab up

1232
01:14:15,159 --> 01:14:18,800
Gregory Soto. Watch give people some waivers. I'll give him

1233
01:14:18,840 --> 01:14:20,239
some streaming options. We'll get out of here.

1234
01:14:20,680 --> 01:14:21,000
Speaker 3: Okay.

1235
01:14:21,119 --> 01:14:21,359
Speaker 6: Cool?

1236
01:14:21,880 --> 01:14:22,640
Speaker 5: So on.

1237
01:14:22,960 --> 01:14:30,199
Speaker 3: Hell Martinez Guardians second base, also has outfield eligibility. He

1238
01:14:31,119 --> 01:14:33,279
I mean, he might be someone we end up talking

1239
01:14:33,279 --> 01:14:36,960
about further next week. He looks really good and he's

1240
01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:43,720
got an opportunity with Rokio going down. So I like

1241
01:14:44,079 --> 01:14:49,359
Angel Martinez and Hell Martinez a lot. Orgy Solar who

1242
01:14:49,439 --> 01:14:53,000
or hey Solar as always a guy who gets hot

1243
01:14:53,079 --> 01:14:55,680
at times, hits for, hits for a bunch of power,

1244
01:14:56,720 --> 01:15:00,920
hits people in the face, tries to If you have

1245
01:15:01,439 --> 01:15:04,279
a five by five league, in one of your categories

1246
01:15:04,399 --> 01:15:09,399
is punches, I mean, who Aslar looks like he's been hot.

1247
01:15:10,239 --> 01:15:13,479
He's obviously he's gonna get suspended at some point, so

1248
01:15:13,800 --> 01:15:16,439
you're gonna have to you either wait for him to

1249
01:15:16,479 --> 01:15:21,199
come back from the suspension or bench him anyway. Edward

1250
01:15:22,199 --> 01:15:27,640
Julian for the Rockies is actually hitting leadoff for them

1251
01:15:28,319 --> 01:15:32,840
and has been like every day, has been getting replaced

1252
01:15:33,319 --> 01:15:37,760
later in the games. But for whatever reason, Warren Jay

1253
01:15:37,880 --> 01:15:43,920
Schaefer has been playing Julian Julian at lead, leading off

1254
01:15:44,079 --> 01:15:47,199
with him, and he's been hitting over four hundred in

1255
01:15:47,239 --> 01:15:51,199
the last week. So him. So anyway, let's see Moyses

1256
01:15:51,359 --> 01:15:55,079
Bollstarios is hitting five hundred in the last week, has

1257
01:15:55,279 --> 01:16:00,720
multiple homers. Mickey Moniac has multiple games with multiple homers.

1258
01:16:01,199 --> 01:16:06,359
Curtis Mead is hitting well for the Nationals, not playing

1259
01:16:06,399 --> 01:16:08,279
every day, more of a deep league guy, but it

1260
01:16:08,279 --> 01:16:12,520
has been hitting well. Mauricio Dubon has been hitting well,

1261
01:16:13,560 --> 01:16:17,760
has a starting job more or less. Dalton Rushing has

1262
01:16:18,720 --> 01:16:22,159
actually been hitting pretty good. And I wouldn't be surprised

1263
01:16:22,199 --> 01:16:25,560
to see Will Smith get more DHA bats and Rushing

1264
01:16:25,680 --> 01:16:30,479
get more catching, so Rushing might for deeper leagues. Rushing

1265
01:16:30,560 --> 01:16:34,680
actually might be getting on people's radars even though he's

1266
01:16:34,760 --> 01:16:39,479
not the quote unquote starter. And then Casey Schmidt hit

1267
01:16:39,600 --> 01:16:44,479
well over the last week for the Giants and brooks Lee.

1268
01:16:45,319 --> 01:16:49,800
So there's some names for you, all right.

1269
01:16:49,800 --> 01:16:54,119
Speaker 1: And some streaming options here. This week, Jeffrey Springs gets

1270
01:16:54,159 --> 01:16:56,479
a two step at home. I do not love as

1271
01:16:56,800 --> 01:17:00,039
at home, but Texas White Sox and two start, and

1272
01:17:00,119 --> 01:17:03,359
he has been great to start the season, so I

1273
01:17:03,439 --> 01:17:06,680
think I'm throwing him out there. Bryce Elder versus Miami

1274
01:17:07,640 --> 01:17:10,640
Kyer Montero, he has not had the you know, the

1275
01:17:10,760 --> 01:17:12,159
toughest opponents.

1276
01:17:11,920 --> 01:17:15,159
Speaker 4: But that continues this week versus Kansas City at home.

1277
01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:18,880
Speaker 1: Paviera sad I believe he gets a two start at

1278
01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:20,199
Philly versus the Mats.

1279
01:17:20,199 --> 01:17:20,439
Speaker 4: Again.

1280
01:17:20,520 --> 01:17:23,479
Speaker 1: This is another one where I don't necessarily love the matchups,

1281
01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:26,720
but you're getting a two start guy who is widely available,

1282
01:17:26,880 --> 01:17:31,479
So why not Foster Griffin at Pittsburgh. Two teams fighting

1283
01:17:31,640 --> 01:17:35,920
for you know, equal terribleness, although Pittsburgh's been good. So

1284
01:17:37,000 --> 01:17:41,399
Tomoyaki Sugato at Houston. You got seth Luo going to

1285
01:17:41,560 --> 01:17:45,640
Detroit and Michael McGreevy versus Cleveland. I like all those guys.

1286
01:17:46,920 --> 01:17:50,119
It it gets a little bit questionable as we go down.

1287
01:17:50,520 --> 01:17:52,960
Oh say, I do like what Warren for he bounce.

1288
01:17:52,800 --> 01:17:56,840
Speaker 4: Back versus the Angels and versus Kansas City at home.

1289
01:17:57,039 --> 01:17:58,520
So there's a few names for you.

1290
01:17:58,960 --> 01:18:01,199
Speaker 1: And if nothing else, if you don't have anybody to

1291
01:18:01,239 --> 01:18:03,560
pick up, you can always pick up did A France.

1292
01:18:03,600 --> 01:18:04,560
Speaker 4: As for Gray.

1293
01:18:06,600 --> 01:18:09,760
Speaker 1: If you have specific questions, you can fight us on x.

1294
01:18:09,800 --> 01:18:12,239
Speaker 4: Im at rasbeat on Gray is at Rasball.

1295
01:18:12,319 --> 01:18:15,279
Speaker 1: You can fight us on YouTube dot com, slash Rasball

1296
01:18:15,359 --> 01:18:19,239
Fantasy or at rasball dot com in the commns sections.

1297
01:18:19,720 --> 01:18:22,319
Speaker 4: May your lineups be great. May you score some points

1298
01:18:22,359 --> 01:18:24,039
this week and I'll talk to you later.

1299
01:18:24,119 --> 01:18:25,560
Speaker 3: Gray all right leads
