Speaker 1: Greene's Society, Jason's Everyone at Church twelves and welcome to
Speaker 1: Fantasy Baseball Live. Today is still March the eighth, but
Speaker 1: now it is almost four o'clock here on the East Coast.
Speaker 1: I'm back with my good friend mister Tim McCleod. And
Speaker 1: Tim and I were thinking that we've got to get
Speaker 1: these sleepers out as soon as we can. So Tim,
Speaker 1: I thought we'd get together this afternoon and finish the
Speaker 1: old sleepers up.
Speaker 2: Well, speaking of sleepers, that's why I took a few
Speaker 2: minutes for meeting. It back to you, Rich, I decided
Speaker 2: to have a fifteen minute power nappened at last two
Speaker 2: and a half hours, I had my ringer off. It's
Speaker 2: just a good thing that it must have been a
Speaker 2: prostrate situation, any I ended.
Speaker 1: King, Am I am? I?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you get to a certain age you don't sleep
Speaker 2: for more than about two and a half hours.
Speaker 1: Even I'm right there with you. I'm right there with it.
Speaker 1: I had. I had a good old prostate infection, which
Speaker 1: if you're you're an older gentleman, you know what I'm
Speaker 1: talking about. You just get those. And I went to
Speaker 1: the doctor and who goes, are you?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 1: Do you have to get up in the middle of
Speaker 1: the night. I go, well, of course, I'm sixty years old.
Speaker 2: Last question, yea.
Speaker 1: More than normal. I go, okay, that's a better question.
Speaker 1: So I don't think so much exactly, I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't know if they've got those rings now that you
Speaker 1: can get that measure your soundness in your sleep now.
Speaker 1: And I refuse to get that because I don't want
Speaker 1: to know, because I get up every day, every night.
Speaker 1: I get up at least once a night.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm I'm hey. I'm fine if I'm
Speaker 2: not tired the next day, and you know, and even
Speaker 2: if I am tired, I'm old. I'm retired. I'm entitled
Speaker 2: that power aps are a way of life. Good.
Speaker 1: You work awfully hard for being a being a guy retired.
Speaker 2: By the way, Yeah, I'm fairly busy.
Speaker 1: I think.
Speaker 2: I think I had three or four drafts, two sets
Speaker 2: of preps questions, and I put in, got a call
Speaker 2: in one of the dealerships, plus three other shifts. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't really know where I would have found time
Speaker 2: to actually work now that I'm retired. I'm running out
Speaker 2: of time. How was that?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I wrote some more. I wrote some more, capsules
Speaker 1: up for my postal Monday, watch a little bit of
Speaker 1: a baseball game. Taking notes on that. Let's see what
Speaker 1: was I always watching? Uh? Christian Campbell strike out two
Speaker 1: more times and four at bats, so I did get
Speaker 1: a hit though it was a good hit.
Speaker 2: Well, okay, well let's extra velosity one ten, one twelve.
Speaker 1: I think it was four, it was ever ninety five.
Speaker 1: It was a hard hit, so that was good. Jackson
Speaker 1: Joe pitched a great another had another great outing, topped
Speaker 1: out a ninety nine point four miles an hour, twenty
Speaker 1: four to forty three spin on his fastball and just
Speaker 1: a nasty slider. So just looks like a real deal.
Speaker 2: I like to hear that because I have only a
Speaker 2: little bit later on get to starting pitching. I've got
Speaker 2: a huge investment in Jackson Joke. I think I have
Speaker 2: him in virtually every league.
Speaker 1: Rich I wrote that book. I wrote it up for
Speaker 1: dining for Patreon members, and this is my last sentence.
Speaker 1: I think you this is a very oozing with sarcasm.
Speaker 1: This I think Tim will appreciate this. And I'm talking
Speaker 1: about Jackson Joke. They appeared to be giving him every
Speaker 1: opportunity to break camp with the team. But when you've
Speaker 1: got Kent Tamada as your number five starter, well that's
Speaker 1: a tough guy to crawl over.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm holding up a scorecard that has a ten
Speaker 2: on it.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, well I would think you'd be able to
Speaker 1: outpitch Kent to Maeda, right, you would think so.
Speaker 2: In your sleep, Like I did, not to mean Kent
Speaker 2: to Maida, but I think he's now like thirty eight
Speaker 2: and he's had a good career. But I think Kent
Speaker 2: to Maida is more IV a middle leave ratings eater
Speaker 2: sort of.
Speaker 1: Ye start, yeah, yeah, I agreed in a few good years,
Speaker 1: but he was at one point in time maybe Jackson
Speaker 1: he had Jackson Joe, but that was ten years ago, right,
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's ever been Jackson Joe. But
Speaker 1: Jackson Joe is a good pitcher. When I saw him
Speaker 1: in the Fall League in twenty twenty three, it was
Speaker 1: jaw dropping stuff. It was impressive. So we have done
Speaker 1: sleepers or catcher, first base and second base. I encouraged
Speaker 1: your body to go back and to the end of
Speaker 1: Sunday's podcast for that, are you ready for shortstop?
Speaker 2: I'm ready to rock.
Speaker 1: Who's your sleeper at shortstop.
Speaker 2: Uh, my sleeper would be a guy that I don't
Speaker 2: believe I have any shares of, and I'm kicking myself
Speaker 2: for it, but I'm certainly liking Tyler Fitzgerald. Oh yeah,
Speaker 2: last yeah, yeah. Fifteen homers, seventeen stolen bases last year
Speaker 2: over pretty much half a season. Hey, there's lots of
Speaker 2: strikeouts there, but with an ADP of two forty, I'm
Speaker 2: sort of liking what I'm seeing as a late pick.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know if you can duplicate what he
Speaker 1: did last season, but I mean it's a very intriguing option.
Speaker 1: What round do you have to get him in?
Speaker 2: Uh, you're you're looking at one fifty, ten ninety on
Speaker 2: top of that sixteenth fifteen, sixteenth round.
Speaker 1: Seems pretty reasonable. I've got a guy that my pick
Speaker 1: is a guy that I know you're very high on.
Speaker 1: I was high on him last season. I don't know
Speaker 1: if he was, he must be. He's got to be
Speaker 1: one of my targets. That's Anthony Volpi going as the
Speaker 1: fourteenth shortstop off the board. I think he's only going
Speaker 1: to get better, tim He's only going to get stronger.
Speaker 1: He's got speed, so we know there's going to be
Speaker 1: stolen bases. There's a decent defender. I'm going with Anthony Volpie.
Speaker 1: If I can't get one of the high end shortstops,
Speaker 1: then I'm going to wait for Anthony Volpi.
Speaker 2: Well, I hope you're right, because he would have been
Speaker 2: my choice. I have him all over the place. Rich,
Speaker 2: I've got at least six shares of Bolby, and I'm
Speaker 2: expecting good things. He's young, he's hitting at the top
Speaker 2: of a very strong lineup. I think you're going to
Speaker 2: run scored. I think he can hit fifteen home runs
Speaker 2: a steel thirty bases. So I'm right with you on
Speaker 2: Anthony Volby. Give me your deep sleeper, Oh my deep sleeper.
Speaker 2: I gotta go. I gotta go with my Canadian roots here,
Speaker 2: and I'm gonna go with Ernie Clement. Of all people,
Speaker 2: I know, he's my guy. My guy is your guy,
Speaker 2: My guy is your guy.
Speaker 1: You can double down, Yeah, yeah, yeah, people, Ernie Clement,
Speaker 1: come on, yeah.
Speaker 2: No, he went twelve twelve last year, over four hundred
Speaker 2: of bass. But yeah, he didn't strike out a tunnel
Speaker 2: and walk eleven times. No, No, let's let's start Jordan Lawler.
Speaker 2: That's a much better conversation.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it's the only problem with Jordan Lawler,
Speaker 1: Tim is why he can't stay healthy. And two is
Speaker 1: they really like Herdola Perdoma. They gave him a long
Speaker 1: term deal. It's a good shortstop. And where does he play?
Speaker 1: When does he get the call? Tim?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Oh sorry I lost you there, Richard.
Speaker 1: So when does he get the call? I'm sorry, when
Speaker 1: does he get the call? Because I mean it's uh,
Speaker 1: I mean, Prodoma's playing shortstop and third base. They're they're full.
Speaker 2: Uh, they're full. But when he's ready, I think they'll
Speaker 2: find room for the bat. Yeah, I really do. Uh.
Speaker 2: I think they'll move him into I think they'll move
Speaker 2: him into shortstop and start using Perdomo in the outfield
Speaker 2: as a backup against tough, tough pitching at shortstop, third base,
Speaker 2: second base. I think I think Predomo is going to
Speaker 2: be the super sub in Arizona playing all over the
Speaker 2: place with Lawler at short So it's just a matter
Speaker 2: of when they three.
Speaker 1: Sorry, I everyone I had to call Tim Becky had
Speaker 1: a bad connection. I think we get a better connection
Speaker 1: out to them. So you were saying with Lawlor, you
Speaker 1: think that Pardoma becomes a super sub and La Lawler
Speaker 1: becomes a shortstop.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think that's Lawler's got no blur problems all
Speaker 2: with the glove, does he?
Speaker 1: I think Perdoma is better, Okay, But I mean Lawler
Speaker 1: has been talked about playing third base, but you know
Speaker 1: third base is full, So I mean that's my only
Speaker 1: concern is where does he play?
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think it is a concern, But I
Speaker 2: still think they'll use Perdoma in a super sub role
Speaker 2: once Lawler's bad is proven that they believe he's ready
Speaker 2: to rule. And I don't think it's going to take
Speaker 2: that long. I really don't. A lot of people are
Speaker 2: concerned about the Perdomo signing. I'm not. I'm really not.
Speaker 2: When he's ready to go. I think he's going to
Speaker 2: be ready to go.
Speaker 1: I agree with it. That's why I put him as
Speaker 1: my deep sleeper. And I think as a guy that
Speaker 1: you can get as the twenty ninth shortstop off the
Speaker 1: board and a nice reserve pick. Definitely in draft on
Speaker 1: old leagues, he should be a guy that you target.
Speaker 2: Totally agree.
Speaker 1: Let's go to third base, Tim, have you.
Speaker 2: Got third base? You know, I was reading through some
Speaker 2: stuff and I ran into a quote by Connor Norby, Okay,
Speaker 2: who's currently going twenty fourth off the board. And I
Speaker 2: mentioned my lust for Connor Norby two seventy ADP. But
Speaker 2: apparently he wants to hit thirty homers this year, which
Speaker 2: on the surface sort of sounds a bit crazy. But
Speaker 2: last year he hit twenty six between all levels of play.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's not that crazy. I gotta go with Connor
Speaker 2: Norby late.
Speaker 1: Connor Norby now with the Miami Marlins. I kind of
Speaker 1: like the pick Tim. I know you've been high on him.
Speaker 1: It's his year to it's his year to play Tim.
Speaker 1: And wouldn't it be funny if he turns out to
Speaker 1: be a better option than Jackson Holliday.
Speaker 2: Yehah, it's gonna make that trade look even better, isn't it.
Speaker 1: Yeah? It is. And the Marlins usually get the short
Speaker 1: side of a trade, but maybe it'll work out for them.
Speaker 1: Carnan Orby is a good player. It's just, uh, you've
Speaker 1: just got to do it. I like the pick I got.
Speaker 1: Mine's a boring guy, but Matt Chapman was a guy
Speaker 1: that you could get a little bit later. He's starting
Speaker 1: to creep up, uh, but he is the eleventh third
Speaker 1: basement off the board, he's boring, but third base can
Speaker 1: get shallow in a hurry. And I like Chapman. I
Speaker 1: know he's in San Francisco, so you don't like the
Speaker 1: power potential there. But I think he's going to be
Speaker 1: twenty five thirty home runs. It's a huge ex of
Speaker 1: velocity and I think he's going to play. So I've
Speaker 1: got Yeah, Matt Chapman is my guy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think he's getting as much loves as
Speaker 2: he should. I started figured right now he's round who
Speaker 2: he's what eleventh off the board? I yeah, I think
Speaker 2: it's I think it's a good solid sape pick. I agreed, yeap.
Speaker 1: Who's your deep sleeper?
Speaker 2: Oh? My deep sleeper? I this is deep and I
Speaker 2: could still be sleeping because this guy right now is
Speaker 2: sixty sixth off the board with an ADP of seven
Speaker 2: point thirty two. But why not?
Speaker 1: Cam Smith? That's a great call, And we talked about
Speaker 1: him on the previous podcast, and he's having a great
Speaker 1: he's having a great spring. He had a great debut
Speaker 1: in his professional debut. Yeah, why not?
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you want to go sleeper, you're not going
Speaker 2: to get me any that that deep.
Speaker 1: I'm surprised he has he's not higher than he is.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think most people are resolved to the fact
Speaker 2: that it it ain't going to happen as early as
Speaker 2: I think it potentially could, depending on what happens with
Speaker 2: Christian Walker.
Speaker 1: My guy is not doing so well, tim My guy's struggling.
Speaker 1: He is struggling, hitting won twenty five. In fact, there's
Speaker 1: a roster resource has already got paulled to Young in
Speaker 1: front of him now at third base. So it's not
Speaker 1: looking like Jose Tina is going to be the deep
Speaker 1: sleeper that I thought he was going to be even
Speaker 1: three weeks ago. I don't know what's happened there. He
Speaker 1: played so well last season, He's always played well in
Speaker 1: the minor leagues. I'm not sure exactly what's going on.
Speaker 1: He might not even go north with the team. I mean,
Speaker 1: they got him as a bench player now, but I
Speaker 1: think there's a lot I can't think.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, Sorry for interrupting. I'm still half a
Speaker 2: sleep here, but yeah, but no, like I can't figure
Speaker 2: out what Washington was doing there. They're not a playoff team,
Speaker 2: they're not a contending team, so why not let the
Speaker 2: kid play and they bring in, and this isn't a
Speaker 2: slam against the young, but is he a long term
Speaker 2: Is he a long term piece in Washington? Maybe maybe
Speaker 2: he's there to work with Tanya and be that one
Speaker 2: year transitional player. But I don't know. I started, I
Speaker 2: started to think they should take a ten year shot.
Speaker 2: He's the future.
Speaker 1: Maybe Tanya just didn't maybe he didn't play well enough
Speaker 1: to take the take the role. You know, sure he
Speaker 1: surely has struggled. So I'm not sure what's going on there.
Speaker 1: I have some people I know in the Washington organization.
Speaker 1: I'll see if I can figure out what's going on there.
Speaker 1: But it's been a bit of a bummer. But he's
Speaker 1: still a guy that I like a lot. I can't
Speaker 1: believe we're gonna I'm gonna dump my affection for him
Speaker 1: after three weeks of a of a bad spring. So
Speaker 1: so I'm still all in on jose Tan. Let's take
Speaker 1: a break, Tommy and get back and uh let's do outfield,
Speaker 1: shall we? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Sounds like a plan. Uh well, I almost said that.
Speaker 2: It's a line that I have used for at least
Speaker 2: fifty years, but I say it all the time, and
Speaker 2: it sounds like a plan. Stand and I almost said
Speaker 2: the stand okay, stand, I got myself, but.
Speaker 1: Wow, that would have been funny.
Speaker 2: It rhymes okay, so I it's just something I've been
Speaker 2: sounds like a good plan, stand and the way you go.
Speaker 2: But anyhow, that's why it was chuckl like I had
Speaker 2: to catch my double catch myself there.
Speaker 1: So Tim, as you know, we were in a bidding
Speaker 1: war for an apartment, a new apartment in Marstown, New Jersey,
Speaker 1: where we live, and four people bid on the house.
Speaker 1: A house never went on the market. We came in third,
Speaker 1: so did not get the property. And apparently the person
Speaker 1: who did get the property from what they won't tell
Speaker 1: us what they bid on, but apparently significantly more than
Speaker 1: everybody else.
Speaker 2: So they wanted it. They overpaid for it. It's theirs
Speaker 2: right and they are.
Speaker 1: They definitely overpaid for it. And it was a real
Speaker 1: it was a beautiful place. But you know, you know,
Speaker 1: we just they they wanted it more than we did,
Speaker 1: and we were not going to do something stupid. So
Speaker 1: so so we'll just wait for the next one to
Speaker 1: come on the market.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no need to still loo Kidney.
Speaker 1: Yep, that's true. This one, this one I was thinking
Speaker 1: to put my wife into a densered servitude. So it
Speaker 1: was it was not true. It was a lot. I
Speaker 1: mean that the uh we the council that we got
Speaker 1: get this, tim was you we would have to go
Speaker 1: four to five hundred thousand dollars over list price, and
Speaker 1: the list price was already three hundred thousand dollars over
Speaker 1: what the house was assessed for, so it's like okay.
Speaker 1: It was like, so I don't know if ultimately that's
Speaker 1: where the don't don't know if all that's where the yeah,
Speaker 1: that's where the house landed. But we just said no.
Speaker 1: I mean, it was crazy stuff. I mean I was like, wow, past.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well you were mentioning that you know, it's a
Speaker 2: problem and one of your children is looking at a
Speaker 2: place right now and they're struggling, and you know, it's
Speaker 2: it's just the nature of that industry at this point
Speaker 2: in time. But you don't have to be in a
Speaker 2: rush to throw it away, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: Eventually something will come up and it'll work and away
Speaker 2: you go and it'll you know, maybe you'll be able
Speaker 2: to avoid the I would call those over stupidity.
Speaker 1: So exactly, it's like for you know, for a guy
Speaker 1: on your fantasy team. So we saw the same thing
Speaker 1: happening here at the beach probably twelve to eighteen months ago.
Speaker 1: Now people are cutting prices on their houses. So we've
Speaker 1: got good friends who are trying to sell their house
Speaker 1: and they have the first showing in three months. So
Speaker 1: nobody's looking for houses. So it's very cyclical. So we
Speaker 1: just don't want to do something stupid. So I know
Speaker 1: a lot of people were interested because a lot of
Speaker 1: people love talking about real estate, Home and Guarden TV
Speaker 1: and it's always fun to hear about competitive bid situations.
Speaker 1: But we lost, Timmy. It was funny the yeah you lost,
Speaker 1: but you could have won.
Speaker 2: You could have won, maybe we did.
Speaker 1: It was funny because our realtor goes, you came in
Speaker 1: second lowest, and I said, I prefer to say we
Speaker 1: came in third place. So there you go, the second lowest.
Speaker 1: Come on, it makes it sound like losers.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I was gonna say, and if you expect my
Speaker 2: business at some point in time in the future, you
Speaker 2: probably just blew it right exactly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, let's move on to outfield. Who do
Speaker 1: you got You do one, I'll do one and we'll
Speaker 1: kind of go back and forth like that.
Speaker 2: Okay, sixty fourth outfielder off the board with an ADP
Speaker 2: of two fifty four. I'm liking me some. Garrett Mitchell.
Speaker 1: Rich always liked Garrett Mitchell.
Speaker 2: I have I've I'm loyal to a fault, and I
Speaker 2: have many, and it's it's a fault. Yes, probably I'm sticking.
Speaker 2: I'm sticking to it. Now that it looks like he
Speaker 2: has a job.
Speaker 1: I just realized we didn't cover either one of your drafts.
Speaker 1: That happens, so we have to do that next week.
Speaker 1: That that'll be our topic for next week because the
Speaker 1: guy that I selected. I was online when you selected
Speaker 1: Dylan Cruz and I smiled Timmy tim It did his
Speaker 1: TALT Wars team and I saw he selected Dylan Cruise.
Speaker 1: He was on the wheel. Well done, McCloud. I just
Speaker 1: think I love Dylan Cruiz this season. This is the
Speaker 1: year to get him.
Speaker 2: I totally agree. He's in a situation I believe where
Speaker 2: the price is right and after this year, who knows,
Speaker 2: who knows what's going to be occurring. But you're not
Speaker 2: getting to get him six seventh, eighth round, No, I
Speaker 2: ain't gonna happen.
Speaker 1: I agree. My next two guys are deep sleepers. I
Speaker 1: don't know if you just have some regular sleepers next
Speaker 1: or some guys that are looking.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I got one that's sort of a boring one,
Speaker 2: but I sort of like him, and that's Brandon Marsh
Speaker 2: in Philadelphia. Yeah, he's you know, he's going seventy six
Speaker 2: off the board. He's got an adyp of three thirty seven.
Speaker 2: It looks like the Rojas project is over and done
Speaker 2: with right now in Philadelphia. And last year sixteen homers,
Speaker 2: nineteen stolen bases to forty nine batting average. I started
Speaker 2: like Brandon Marsh in deeper leagues. I think he can
Speaker 2: you know, he did it last year. Why can't he
Speaker 2: be a fifteen to fifteen type and as a fifth
Speaker 2: outfielder that's fine.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a good call. Speaking of Philadelphia, I see
Speaker 1: where Max Kepler's having a really good spring. Just beware everyone,
Speaker 1: Max Kepler gonna look like the best player in baseball
Speaker 1: for three weeks at a time, and it's three months
Speaker 1: before he's the best player baseball again. It is a
Speaker 1: streaky hitter.
Speaker 2: Yeah, to be honest with you, when you mentioned his
Speaker 2: name and watching the game, I thought you were going
Speaker 2: to say he was my first reaction, but he's injured
Speaker 2: already exactly. Yeah, and then yeah, no, I don't wish
Speaker 2: that on, but yeah, Max Skepler definitely has his moments.
Speaker 1: He does. I mean, he looks, he can look great
Speaker 1: every period of time, but for the most part, he's
Speaker 1: just he's just okay. Still young enough though, so it's disappointing.
Speaker 1: My guy's Jacob Melton. Tim, I've been talking about him
Speaker 1: kind of in the same line as Camp Smith. He's
Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty, first guy off outfitter off the board,
Speaker 1: so he is free. Not suggesting you pick him up
Speaker 1: in a traditional draft. Definitely draft and hold leagues and
Speaker 1: just pay attention to what's going on going on in Houston.
Speaker 1: I don't like to set up in Houston. I've mentioned
Speaker 1: it before. I mentioned it the last podcast is which
Speaker 1: is why I like Cam Smith, Which is why I
Speaker 1: like Tim's selection of Cam Smith so much in his
Speaker 1: Deep Sleeper. I think you could see the Astros start
Speaker 1: to make some moves here in the second half, and
Speaker 1: I think it's going to give some of these guys
Speaker 1: a chance to play.
Speaker 2: Totally agree, like Jacob Milton a lot.
Speaker 1: Who's your next guy, Tim?
Speaker 2: My next guy I've got. I've got a sleeper, a
Speaker 2: deep sleeper, and I've got a really deep sleeper. But
Speaker 2: you know what I mentioned about a month or so
Speaker 2: ago that I and I've mentioned it numerous times in
Speaker 2: the offseason, that I really liked Herso arnellis in San Diego. Yes, yes,
Speaker 2: and you know what, he's having a great spring so far.
Speaker 2: Things are Things are good with mister Arnellison. Yeah, one
Speaker 2: hundred and thirtieth off the board with an ADP of
Speaker 2: six sixty five. I'm gonna if you want to go
Speaker 2: steak in liquor, all got three hundred at bats.
Speaker 1: No, I'm right there with you. No, I probably I'm
Speaker 1: the one who's been talking about Okay, I have a
Speaker 1: share of him on my NFC team, So I'm very
Speaker 1: proud of that.
Speaker 2: Yes, as as you should be. I think he's gonna
Speaker 2: be I think he's gonna be a good little player,
Speaker 2: and I think San Diego will give him the opportunity.
Speaker 1: I have been writing about this guy since he was
Speaker 1: sixteen years old, so it's been seven eight years. So
Speaker 1: I mean it's like, you know, you got on him, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean you just it's like, give the guy a shot,
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, and then I was so disappointed
Speaker 1: when they brought in Jason Hayward. And who is the
Speaker 1: other guy for the platoon? I can't remember.
Speaker 2: Oh, the Connor Joe was, Yeah.
Speaker 1: Connor Joe. And it's like, oh, come on, can't we
Speaker 1: give the guy a shot. It's like it's the kind
Speaker 1: of when you're not a star like Dylan Cruz, it
Speaker 1: just seems like teams just want to make it really
Speaker 1: hard for the guy to get get an opportunity.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Every time I hear Connor Jewel, Okay, I think
Speaker 2: he should be like an old blue singer.
Speaker 1: I know the guy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: I got I think I got both, uh, both those
Speaker 1: guys on my NFBC team. I'm very excited about all
Speaker 1: of that. Anyway. Uh so your guy so some network to.
Speaker 2: Me, right, Yeah, and then I've got one really deep guy.
Speaker 1: So I've got somebody that is not suggesting anybody pick
Speaker 1: this guy up in a draft. But Chandler Simpson reminds
Speaker 1: me a lot of stuer Ruiz, the year that est
Speaker 1: Ruiz came up and stole thirty bases and half a season.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Uh, And Chandler Simpson is significantly faster than estr Ruiz.
Speaker 1: There's absolutely no power. He's a speed only guy. He's
Speaker 1: a great defender. He hasn't spent any time in Triple A,
Speaker 1: and the Rays like to go a level at a time,
Speaker 1: so I could be a year early. But Chandler Simpson
Speaker 1: will get a shot to play and we'll steal you
Speaker 1: bases and a bunch of So if you're ever hearing
Speaker 1: Tim talking about now is the time to pick up
Speaker 1: Chandler Simpson on the waiver wire, you better heed his
Speaker 1: advice because when he comes up to him, he's gonna
Speaker 1: steal bases for you.
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, he's gonna He's gonna get find a way
Speaker 2: down to first base, either through slapping ahead or a walk.
Speaker 2: And as soon as he gets to first base, give
Speaker 2: him about twenty seconds and he should be on second.
Speaker 2: It would be my guess. I think it just me
Speaker 2: can fly. I haven't seen too many. When I saw
Speaker 2: him in Arizona this year, the first thing that came
Speaker 2: to my mind was Billy Hamilton. He's got classes class
Speaker 2: of speed. It's blinding. He got down to first base.
Speaker 2: He's sort of lolligagged down there on a couple infield
Speaker 2: oats but on the third one he put it into
Speaker 2: high gear and it was like, Wow, he's got jets,
Speaker 2: no doubt about for sure.
Speaker 1: Okay, Timmy, let's move on.
Speaker 2: And I got one more. Alright. I don't know why,
Speaker 2: but I've I've just developed a man crush on Alan
Speaker 2: rood In.
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of people have.
Speaker 2: You know. You look at you look at the numbers,
Speaker 2: and he controls the strike zone. Well, okay, walks virtually
Speaker 2: as much as and actually, if you go back to
Speaker 2: high a walk more than he struck out. You know,
Speaker 2: I think you're looking at a like last year he
Speaker 2: had sixteen home runs drove in between two levels, double
Speaker 2: and Triple A. He uh, what do we got here?
Speaker 2: Seventy six RBIs and fourteen stolen bases. His OBP at
Speaker 2: Triple A in two and forty five vests is four
Speaker 2: oh six. I I just think that the Jays are
Speaker 2: gonna find room, They're gonna they're gonna sell, and there's
Speaker 2: gonna be pieces flying all over the place in the
Speaker 2: second half of the season and in a draft and
Speaker 2: hold uh, I think I tucked him away in real
Speaker 2: forty eight or forty nine. I just think we're going
Speaker 2: to see him at some point in time I like
Speaker 2: and I like the player.
Speaker 1: I gets a good call. I mean, he's a nice
Speaker 1: little player. It's not a star by any stretch. Let
Speaker 1: me ask you kind of an adjunc question.
Speaker 2: It okay, I can add junk as an answer.
Speaker 1: Just last career finished the season as a Toronto Blue Jay.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 1: Wow, so they're going to be sellers.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what was the rumor? I read somewhere he wanted
Speaker 2: fifteen years, A little bit less than six hundred I
Speaker 2: think was the number.
Speaker 1: Wow, okay, Wow, that's fifty million a year. I guess
Speaker 1: that's the going rate for overweight for a basement.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's that's that's again. I was just a rumor
Speaker 2: I read somewhere. But yeah, it's the Jay should have
Speaker 2: done something two years ago. Yeah, if they were serious
Speaker 2: about getting him ininged, you know what I mean? And
Speaker 2: they didn't. And hey, if I was, if I was
Speaker 2: Glad Junior, I'd say with the market ad to bear
Speaker 2: as well? Why not?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah for sure? Yeah? Yeah, okay, so we moved
Speaker 1: to pitching. I've got five guys. I don't know how
Speaker 1: many you have.
Speaker 2: One, two, three, four? I got six?
Speaker 1: Wow. Of course you always out to me so give
Speaker 1: me your first.
Speaker 2: One, Tim, My first one is a guy that warms
Speaker 2: the couckles of the art. And he pitched today and
Speaker 2: I got I got the full up, the full update,
Speaker 2: including spin rate. I got a huge investment in Jackson
Speaker 2: job and Ken Tamada is not going to hold him off.
Speaker 2: Rige not a hope. His ADP is two seventy nine,
Speaker 2: and I can see I can see drafts moving forward,
Speaker 2: that moving and creeping up just a tad.
Speaker 1: I'm I mean, I love the call there. I hope
Speaker 1: he stays healthy. But I mean I think, I think,
Speaker 1: I think the Tigers I believe they can compete. I
Speaker 1: think they can in the central And I mean imagine
Speaker 1: a having another full season of Trek Schoolble and then
Speaker 1: a guy that might not be that for heart far
Speaker 1: behind Tarrek Schoolble with three quarters of a year underneath
Speaker 1: his belt. I mean, going into twenty twenty six, that
Speaker 1: could be quite a pitching staff to deal with.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they've got some young players and you know
Speaker 2: Riley Green and Cole Keith and Parker Parker Meadows. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I think they should be looking at themselves as contenders
Speaker 2: in that division.
Speaker 1: YEP, totally agree with him, Gavin Williams. Big on Gavin Williams.
Speaker 1: The season ninety second off the board. I don't know
Speaker 1: what happened last year. The stuff was a lot better
Speaker 1: than what he showed. You gotta love the chief Factory
Speaker 1: of Cleveland, and I give me some Gavin Williams. I
Speaker 1: have him in a number of leagues. I'm pretty excited
Speaker 1: about it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like that. I like that call a lot.
Speaker 2: I've got him in several leagues and I'm expecting good
Speaker 2: things for my next one. I got a question for you,
Speaker 2: Rich Okay, if you were looking at a veteran pitcher, Okay,
Speaker 2: that last year pitched to a three thirty year a
Speaker 2: with a one to sixteen whip, won nine games, half
Speaker 2: of which were when he was a member of the
Speaker 2: Chicago White Sox and struck out one hundred and fifty
Speaker 2: four over one hundred and seventy seven and a third innings.
Speaker 2: What would you look at to be a reasonable adp
Speaker 2: on a player with that skill set?
Speaker 1: I never talking Eric Fetty, but and Eric nobody is
Speaker 1: nobody liked k Fetty coming. It's just the season. You
Speaker 1: and I talked about it. You and I talked about
Speaker 1: Eric Fetty before even at eighty p's and you said,
Speaker 1: I just don't know if I'm willing to have him
Speaker 1: as my number two starters. Well, Timmy, you don't have to.
Speaker 2: I mean looks like, hell, you got you got a
Speaker 2: debate whether you want him as your number five start
Speaker 2: first round, twenty second round.
Speaker 1: Like it's crazy, It's crazy. I just traded for Eric Fetty.
Speaker 1: It was Eric Fetti, Jose EIGHTEENA and another really interesting oh,
Speaker 1: Glaber Torrez for Max Freed. I'm like, I don't think
Speaker 1: the difference between glabor between Max Freed and Eric Fetti
Speaker 1: is Glaber Torres and Jose etana. So I went and
Speaker 1: had did the deal.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, good for you. I just I can't figure
Speaker 2: that one out. Like I can understand last year, okay,
Speaker 2: when I was moving off about Fetty and all changes
Speaker 2: to his mechanics and delivery and how everything was so
Speaker 2: good and Greed. I can understand people doting okay last year,
Speaker 2: But he spent all of last year proving that he's
Speaker 2: not the same pitcher as he was before he went
Speaker 2: to grew. Yet people still aren't believing. So I'm I'm
Speaker 2: befuddled on Eric Vetty. I really am.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean, I'll like, but all I can
Speaker 1: figures that people just think. I mean, look, he doesn't
Speaker 1: throw all that hard. There's a lot of things that
Speaker 1: are out there, but clearly he knows how to pitch.
Speaker 1: And as a number five starter, please, I mean, come on, yeah,
Speaker 1: I feel the same way about my next guy. And look,
Speaker 1: Justin Justin Verlander could very well be done. He didn't
Speaker 1: pitch well at all last season. He is playing for
Speaker 1: the San Francisco Giants now, but as a one hundred
Speaker 1: and fifty second starter off the board, he's looked really
Speaker 1: good this spring. I mean, people have on Justin Verlander
Speaker 1: in the past, and he's can come back to Hawk people.
Speaker 1: I yeah, I mean it's my six or seventh picture. Please,
Speaker 1: I'll think Justin Verlander.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's the same with Max Schureser. That's the
Speaker 2: same situation. Yeah, exactly, I've got I've got Sureser on
Speaker 2: three or four teams because I think he's got another
Speaker 2: year in the tank. Well, if you're paying for him,
Speaker 2: that's one thing. If you're not paying for him and
Speaker 2: you're drafting him as a as a you know, six
Speaker 2: seven starter, why wouldn't you take a chance.
Speaker 1: I just run about Verlander a couple of days ago,
Speaker 1: and I think his ADP was four fifty. I mean,
Speaker 1: I can't even account that high. It's the thirtieth round,
Speaker 1: isn't It's like.
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, that's another that's another planet.
Speaker 1: That's it doesn't It makes no sense to me because
Speaker 1: if you're wrong and you grab him, you know, as
Speaker 1: your number seven picture or the first guy, and you
Speaker 1: reserve and he doesn't work out, so what but getting
Speaker 1: you're you're giving a shot with Max Schureser and and
Speaker 1: Justin Verlander type. I don't see any downside with that.
Speaker 2: No, it's it's no risk, all reward.
Speaker 1: Yep. Yeah, who's your next guy?
Speaker 2: Oh my next guy. I haven't talked too much about
Speaker 2: him a little bit, but I did a little bit
Speaker 2: of a little bit of digging and I started of
Speaker 2: like DJ Heurts in Washington. Yeah, he cleaned up his
Speaker 2: mechanics over the offseason, changed changed his delivery, and over
Speaker 2: the second half of last year, you can you can
Speaker 2: say he was arguably the best Washington starter. Uh, you're
Speaker 2: looking at NADP. That's twenty spots further down than Eric Betty.
Speaker 2: I started like DJ Hurtz to continue with that second
Speaker 2: half of last year. Moving into this year, I.
Speaker 1: Did a deep dive on DJ Hurst and he still
Speaker 1: doesn't throw the ball that hard, but there's more there
Speaker 1: than he showed at least in the minor leagues. And
Speaker 1: I love the call.
Speaker 2: Thanks rich Uh. I'd be your next two picks are
Speaker 2: they could have been on my list?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Louis Ortiz got moved from at least like it's
Speaker 1: Louise l or Tease or I don't know something, Yeah,
Speaker 1: distinguishing from you know, the other five hundred Louis Ortiz
Speaker 1: thattter in the league.
Speaker 2: It's obvious he's he's he's owl or nothing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, anyway, so when our teeth got traded from
Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Pirates or I don't I can't remember d
Speaker 1: F eight or whatever and he went to the Cleveland Guardians,
Speaker 1: my ears perked up. I'm like, this guy is a
Speaker 1: great arm. Maybe he's a bullpit arm long term, but
Speaker 1: I love the set up here with Cleveland. He's having
Speaker 1: a pretty good spring. Why not again, same general area,
Speaker 1: justin Verlander. Last picture off the board, you know, for
Speaker 1: in a traditional league, why not take it on Luis
Speaker 1: l or Teeth? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Why not. I I like to I like to pick
Speaker 2: a And it's not like Cleveland doesn't know how to
Speaker 2: turn throwers into pitchers, right.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, one out of percent. The setup is it might
Speaker 1: not work everyone, but the setup is there. You got
Speaker 1: a great arm, you got a great organization. He's out
Speaker 1: of Pittsburgh. It's just all set up. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well yeah. The only person who's upset is Paul Skeen
Speaker 2: is because he might have got a better deal in Cleveland.
Speaker 2: Maybe not, but no, I like when you're looking at sleepers,
Speaker 2: that's the sort of thing that counts looking at you know,
Speaker 2: like you said that moved to Cleveland. Uh, it counts.
Speaker 1: I'm assuming Kyle Heart's going to be on your list,
Speaker 1: and I think it's a similar kind of setup. He's
Speaker 1: not because I was thinking, I was thinking of Kyle
Speaker 1: Hart when you were talking about Eric Setti, and you know,
Speaker 1: you kind of like guy that come back from Korea
Speaker 1: in particular, because we talked about this before. I'm not
Speaker 1: sure exactly what it is, but they seem to figure
Speaker 1: something out and Korea and they come back, and it's
Speaker 1: worth a gamble because you can always get those guys
Speaker 1: like you could Eric Fetti. They were free last year,
Speaker 1: and Kyle Hart might not be anything, but the setup
Speaker 1: is there. Pitching at a great ballpark. Yeah, he's got
Speaker 1: to go up against the Diamondbacks and the Dodgers a
Speaker 1: few more times. But you like the setup on Kyle
Speaker 1: Hart well.
Speaker 2: And again, much like Fetti, he went over there, his
Speaker 2: fastballs up a couple of miles an hour, he's got
Speaker 2: a sweeper that was that he didn't throw in North America,
Speaker 2: and his change up he's been utilizing it more and
Speaker 2: it worked very, very effectively. So again it's not a
Speaker 2: case of Kyle Heart going over there, pitching a year,
Speaker 2: getting lucky and coming back to this dates. He went
Speaker 2: over there, changed his game, made some rather significant changes,
Speaker 2: and now he's coming back a different picture. What will
Speaker 2: he work out? Who knows. But when you see the
Speaker 2: success out of as you just mentioned the pictures coming
Speaker 2: back from Korea, Hey, toss a dart.
Speaker 1: That's that's this is that's the whole idea behind taking
Speaker 1: behind taking close sleepers. As you you look for somebody
Speaker 1: that's got a really good setup. Okay, who's your fourth guy? Oh?
Speaker 2: My fourth guy is currently sitting with an ADP of
Speaker 2: three eighty six. Uh, and it was either Kyle Hard
Speaker 2: or this guy. But I'm going with Tommy Yuki Sagano
Speaker 2: of the Baltimore Oriole and he better be posting above
Speaker 2: average results with the Grayson Rugg.
Speaker 1: Yes, yep, that was Tim cut out a little bit.
Speaker 1: But with the Grayson Rodriguez needs to be I I
Speaker 1: actually got him in one of our Dynasty supplemental drafts.
Speaker 1: I was actually pretty excited. So we'll see thirty five
Speaker 1: year old. Yeah, Baltimore's pretty good at figuring out the
Speaker 1: metrics with guys. It's again a guy that's free, so
Speaker 1: why not spin the dial on them.
Speaker 2: He's got six pitches and the lost he isn't more
Speaker 2: than once was, but the control still is. You know,
Speaker 2: he'll knock the cap off a soda bottle at home plate.
Speaker 2: He doesn't walk. He walked sixteen last year in a
Speaker 2: full season. Yeah, and that counts.
Speaker 1: My fourth guy is Caden Dana or his brother, Dana Cayden.
Speaker 1: This guy always get backwards. They could be Dana Cayden.
Speaker 1: I really don't know anymore. But this is a kid that,
Speaker 1: at twenty years old, was promoted directly from Double A,
Speaker 1: which is what the Angels like to do for some
Speaker 1: reason they don't like sending guys to Salt Lake City.
Speaker 1: And Dana came up as a twenty year old, and
Speaker 1: I think it's fair to say he was the worst
Speaker 1: picture in Basse over those three games, he was terrible,
Speaker 1: gave up a ton of home runs. I think it
Speaker 1: was a nine ear a or something, and he just
Speaker 1: wasn't ready. And he's ADP is two fifty six. I'm
Speaker 1: not suggesting this guy is going to be an ace,
Speaker 1: So I think there's enough there. He throws hard enough
Speaker 1: good secondary pitches that he could be a solid number
Speaker 1: three starter. And look, the Angels, you know, love him
Speaker 1: or hate him. Ardy Marina wants to win now and
Speaker 1: if Cait and Dana can help Cain, Dana is going
Speaker 1: to be up and I think he gets a shot.
Speaker 1: I think he'll be much better, which I mean, he
Speaker 1: has to be better than he was last season. And
Speaker 1: the arm is too good.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I totally agree. I've I've got several shares in
Speaker 2: dynasty type formats and I'm very happy to have them.
Speaker 1: Very well. All right, who's your fifth guy?
Speaker 2: My fifth guy? We're we're going from the same team
Speaker 2: with our number five guys, rich with an ADP of
Speaker 2: four to Roho two. I'm going with Grant Holmes. Velocity counts,
Speaker 2: doesn't it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, former DoD your first round draft pick. A lot
Speaker 1: of people don't remember that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's he's shoving at this spring. I started like,
Speaker 2: and they've got him penciled in ahead of Ian Anderson
Speaker 2: at number four in that rotation, which I have a
Speaker 2: feeling will be either four or five combined with your
Speaker 2: guy at four or five, and Ian Anderson will be
Speaker 2: back in triple A. But I started like Grant Holmes.
Speaker 2: I think there's something there, and it's the line has
Speaker 2: got a good team. They'll score some runs for him.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's currently slotted in number four, Ian Anderson number five.
Speaker 1: I'm starting to see Ian Anderson because I play in
Speaker 1: ten dynasty leagues and everybody is trimming down their team
Speaker 1: now to get it legal right, and and Ian Anderson
Speaker 1: is being dropped.
Speaker 2: So yes, and the guy that you're looking at, JR.
Speaker 2: Richie isn't right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, here's a guy that was I believe
Speaker 1: it was the first round draft pick a few years ago,
Speaker 1: had Tommy John surgery. Obviously, was moving through the system
Speaker 1: fast because that's what the Atlanta Braves do move guys
Speaker 1: through the system fast. Unfortunately, Tommy John Surgery came back
Speaker 1: last season actually pitched pretty well. And he's not I looked.
Speaker 1: I didn't see a ADP form, so I don't think
Speaker 1: he's been drafted at all. And look, teams need ten
Speaker 1: twelve pitchers. Jay Ritchie will get a shot, and that's
Speaker 1: it's a good arm. It's a good picture that most
Speaker 1: people have forgotten about.
Speaker 2: Good arm. Good call Rich. I like it.
Speaker 1: And look, the Braves do good stuff with pictures. Look
Speaker 1: what they did with Ronaldo Lopez, Look what they did
Speaker 1: with Chris Sale. I mean it goes on on Schwellenback's
Speaker 1: a pretty darn good pitcher. They make these guys better.
Speaker 2: Spencer Streider was not as highly toted as what he
Speaker 2: ended up being. Is that fair statement?
Speaker 1: Well? Yeah, I mean yeah, absolutely one hundred because he
Speaker 1: was the best picture in baseball for a couple of years.
Speaker 1: But don't think anybody saw even close to a number
Speaker 1: two starter out of him, and uh, you know it
Speaker 1: turned out to be quite good.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: May I talk about Spencer Strider for a moment.
Speaker 2: Yes, you may. And I've I've got my I've got
Speaker 2: the ultimate sleeper.
Speaker 1: Okay, we'll quit that. But but I got a message
Speaker 1: from one of our Patreon members, smart guy likes the
Speaker 1: comment on stuff, and I made the comment, I think
Speaker 1: it was on Spencer Strider that you know he's now
Speaker 1: had his second Tommy John surgery, and you know, we
Speaker 1: have to be really careful about that because you know,
Speaker 1: people after the third one, you know, the data is
Speaker 1: really sparse. He came back and said, no, it was
Speaker 1: the Brace surgery, and I remember that when he said that,
Speaker 1: So I did misspeak, but tim in the end, because
Speaker 1: brace surgeries are still so new, I checked with one
Speaker 1: of my agents, who then checked with the insurance carriers,
Speaker 1: and the insurance companies that underwrite these contracts do not care,
Speaker 1: do not differentiate a Brace surgery versus Tommy John. They
Speaker 1: look at it as an elbow surgery. So when they
Speaker 1: evaluate the risk of underwriting a contract, which all teams
Speaker 1: try to do, they look at the They look at
Speaker 1: at two Tommy John surgeries, two Brace surgeries are one
Speaker 1: of each being identical. So so until there's more data
Speaker 1: that maybe the Brace surgery is going to be different,
Speaker 1: longer lasting, blah blah blah, I mean we think it
Speaker 1: people recover from it. Faster, But it doesn't seem that
Speaker 1: way because show, Hey, Otani missed, you know, fourteen months,
Speaker 1: so so I don't know. So yes, technically I misspoke,
Speaker 1: but I think until we know more, it's pretty much
Speaker 1: a major elbow surgery.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's the way I you know, I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't care how your brace it, slice it and dice.
Speaker 2: It is elbow surgery. It's an invasive invasion. You're it's
Speaker 2: an invasive surgery to correct a problem. Now, maybe maybe
Speaker 2: it's not as great a risk, but we don't have
Speaker 2: enough information because it's a relatively new procedure. Maybe five
Speaker 2: years from now we'll be able to say that. But
Speaker 2: right now, it's an elbow. They're cutting into it. That's
Speaker 2: good enough for me.
Speaker 1: So I guess my my PostScript on this would be
Speaker 1: just because you hear it's a brace surgery, don't go, well,
Speaker 1: that's not as bad. We don't know that yet.
Speaker 2: Well, no, there's lots of oatfielders with brace surgery that
Speaker 2: are dhing and have DHD read. There's a reason for that.
Speaker 1: Okay, Timmy, who is your final deep deep sleeper?
Speaker 2: Oh, my final deep deep sleeper shouldn't be and he's
Speaker 2: having a really good spring, and he's currently slotted into
Speaker 2: the fifth spot in the Dodgers rotation. Tony Gonsolin is
Speaker 2: sitting with an ADP of four ninety three.
Speaker 1: I want, I wanted to guess he's on my NFC team.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm totally I'm totally wired in with you.
Speaker 1: I totally get it.
Speaker 2: How's he How does he have an ADP of four
Speaker 2: ninety three.
Speaker 1: I think people are just forgot him about my.
Speaker 2: Eighth eighth pitch. Yeah, I think I picked him as
Speaker 2: my eighth starter. I think in tout seventh or eight,
Speaker 2: and I okay, yeah, you're gonna give him to me.
Speaker 2: I'll take him that late. You know why not?
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, obviously, elbow surgery is a big deal.
Speaker 1: People sometimes don't come back from it. But he is
Speaker 1: showing velocity in spring. He's pitching well. Speaking of pitching poorly,
Speaker 1: Dustin May doesn't look like the same guy. We're talking
Speaker 1: three miles an hour off.
Speaker 2: Of his fastball, So that's a number.
Speaker 1: That's a big you know, I don't know if he's
Speaker 1: purposely not throwing as hard. I mean that could be,
Speaker 1: it could be, yeah, but I mean, doesn't look like
Speaker 1: the same guy. Gonson does look like the same guy
Speaker 1: to me. So I'm totally in with Tim on that.
Speaker 1: I totally get it. And again a lot of these
Speaker 1: guys are just forgotten about.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know the game, the game never stops, it's
Speaker 2: always it's always moving forward. But sometimes you find somebody,
Speaker 2: and I think we have with some of these sleepers,
Speaker 2: just overlooked players that still have the potential to bring
Speaker 2: value to not only the real game but ours.
Speaker 1: Let me sink or find a break, get back, and
Speaker 1: the podcast supposed me twenty to thirty minutes is at
Speaker 1: forty eight. We did good, great stuff. We wank get
Speaker 1: back maybe next Sunday, maybe Monday, and we'll be talking
Speaker 1: about Tim's tunt Wars team and his labor team. See
Speaker 1: how he did there, and you know, just starting to
Speaker 1: get ready for the season.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've got one draft Sunday night, and I've got
Speaker 2: my last auction on March nineteenth, and that's it. Ten down,
Speaker 2: two to go. The end is now.
Speaker 1: Well hopefully hopefully I just the drafts. Not the end.
Speaker 2: Well no, not no, not the end, No, no, no,
Speaker 2: The end still wants to drive cars around for another
Speaker 2: few years, rich and play fantasy baseball and talk with
Speaker 2: my good friend Rich Wilson.
Speaker 1: How's that so, Timmy, I will be in touch with
Speaker 1: you on Saturday with my phone because I'll be taking
Speaker 1: pictures from the Joe Bonamasa concert and at Saint Augustine, Florida.
Speaker 1: So be thinking of you, my friend as I yea,
Speaker 1: as I'm taking. Yeah, we're totally looking forward to be
Speaker 1: our fortieth wedding anniversary. So that's how we're celebringing it
Speaker 1: watching Joe Bonamasa. That's pretty cool.
Speaker 2: Yes, that is very very cool. Did you ever, like
Speaker 2: forty years ago, envision the future and where you would
Speaker 2: be on your thirtieth or year, you know, your fortieth
Speaker 2: anniversary or you know, yeah, I mean you know how
Speaker 2: you look to the future right and everything else? Did
Speaker 2: you have Joe Bond muscle concert for your four youth
Speaker 2: That's so.
Speaker 1: I never thought of it quite that way. But if
Speaker 1: you were to told me that we were going to
Speaker 1: go see a rock concert on our fortieth wedding anniversary,
Speaker 1: I would not have been totally shocked. But what would
Speaker 1: have shocked me is my wife would have made the
Speaker 1: selection and it would be it would be a blues
Speaker 1: guitar player then I would have been Wow, that's that
Speaker 1: has come full circle. So I think that's and the
Speaker 1: week spending before.
Speaker 2: That graduate congratulations, you did very very well. You both
Speaker 2: did that.
Speaker 1: We did and well. And the week before that watching
Speaker 1: baseball games. I mean, how lucky am I?
Speaker 2: So there's a jackpot there by the way.
Speaker 1: I have I have spent a lot of time at
Speaker 1: Broadway shows as well, so I have done my penance.
Speaker 2: So good for you, Good for you. So congratulations, happy,
Speaker 2: happy anniversary. Safe travels to Florida and you two have
Speaker 2: have have fun in the sun.
Speaker 1: Take care of Tim.
