00:00:01.280 --> 00:00:23.800
And Gredi Society Teations. Everyone a Rich Wilson walking to
2
00:00:23.839 --> 00:00:28.199
Fantasy Baseball Live. Today is October fifth. The season is
3
00:00:28.239 --> 00:00:30.679
overru in the middle of the playoffs. It's about three
4
00:00:30.879 --> 00:00:33.159
twenty in the afternoon. As always, I'm here with my
5
00:00:33.240 --> 00:00:36.799
good buddy, mister Tim McCloud. Tim, how was the first
6
00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:40.000
week post Fantasy Baseball season?
7
00:00:41.479 --> 00:00:46.479
Well, it's it's good, it's it's actually great. I'm checking
8
00:00:46.520 --> 00:00:49.439
box scores but they don't really count, but they do count,
9
00:00:49.479 --> 00:00:53.200
if that makes any sense. And I'm working on some trades,
10
00:00:53.320 --> 00:00:57.399
working on some keepers. I started listing some catchers. I
11
00:00:57.439 --> 00:00:59.920
am I'm just full of pisson vinegar this week, Rich,
12
00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:03.200
I'm getting a lot. I'm actually hold on, hold.
13
00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:09.560
On, full of piss and vinegar. Is that what you said? Yes, explained,
14
00:01:09.719 --> 00:01:10.680
What does that mean?
15
00:01:12.879 --> 00:01:15.439
It's an old it's a it's an old I'm assuming
16
00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:17.480
Canadian expression.
17
00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:22.680
I'm okay, I'm all dressed up and I got someplace
18
00:01:22.719 --> 00:01:22.920
to go.
19
00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:28.239
I'm wow that I can't.
20
00:01:28.359 --> 00:01:30.519
I was literally that was my head.
21
00:01:31.799 --> 00:01:36.400
Okay, old old expression. My my grandfather used to use it.
22
00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:39.560
So now that I'm the same age as my grandfather was,
23
00:01:39.560 --> 00:01:41.400
at one point, I figure.
24
00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:43.680
I'm not scary.
25
00:01:44.120 --> 00:01:46.239
Is that scary? Of the same age as your grandfather?
26
00:01:46.280 --> 00:01:48.599
You can remember your grandfather being and you probably thought
27
00:01:48.599 --> 00:01:51.480
he was ancient when you when you knew him. So
28
00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:52.840
it's not good.
29
00:01:54.599 --> 00:02:00.560
Well let's just say, Okay, the yardstick is thirty six
30
00:02:00.599 --> 00:02:04.840
inches and right now I'm sitting around I'm hoping about
31
00:02:04.879 --> 00:02:06.439
thirty inches of that yard stick.
32
00:02:06.519 --> 00:02:09.080
Okay, I still got I still got a little bit
33
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:10.520
left over at the end. I'm open.
34
00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:14.759
That's good. That's good. So yeah, So any you any
35
00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:18.080
baseball stuff this week or is it just just chilling
36
00:02:18.199 --> 00:02:21.240
and starting to think about the season. What do you?
37
00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:23.319
What do you? How are you approaching so far the
38
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:23.919
off season?
39
00:02:25.240 --> 00:02:27.560
Well, I'm trying to do what I say I'm going
40
00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:30.080
to do every year and getting early jump on rankings.
41
00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:32.599
And I've started filing some of the catchers away and
42
00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:37.759
listing them and taking a look at them. Really yeah, yeah, yeah,
43
00:02:37.879 --> 00:02:43.520
trades and dynasty leagues. I've got the the XFL we
44
00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:47.319
draft at the Arizona Fall League or the auction is
45
00:02:47.360 --> 00:02:50.919
held then, so our keepers are doing another couple of weeks,
46
00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:54.960
so I'm sorting through that. I've got I've got a
47
00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:59.479
winter draft coming up. At the beginning of December for
48
00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:02.319
another one of my keeper leagues, so I you know,
49
00:03:02.479 --> 00:03:07.800
between you know, the catchers, keepers and everything else, throwing
50
00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:09.000
some playoff baseball.
51
00:03:09.240 --> 00:03:14.120
Yeah, I I'm busy. I'm I'm happy. Mind.
52
00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:18.120
My week was consumed by stuff that I had put
53
00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:21.520
off for the for the last six months because of
54
00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:25.120
the baseball season, you know, calling the cable company and
55
00:03:25.159 --> 00:03:29.360
getting my bill reduced, calling up for Verizon and getting
56
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:32.639
my bill reduced, that's the telephone company. And trying to
57
00:03:32.639 --> 00:03:37.159
figure out how many versions of Hulu do I have
58
00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:41.439
because everybody's including that there. Yeah, so it's that was
59
00:03:41.520 --> 00:03:43.800
I spent literally a couple of days just trying to
60
00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:48.919
reorganize my life, like wor'st what's happened since the beginning
61
00:03:48.919 --> 00:03:49.919
of the baseball season.
62
00:03:50.360 --> 00:03:53.960
So yeah, yeah, if you're finding out you're still paying
63
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:56.479
a cable bill that you haven't used in four years,
64
00:03:56.520 --> 00:03:58.840
that sort of stuff, right, all the fun things.
65
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:01.960
The cable bill. It is such a ripoff. I don't
66
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:04.280
know what it's like in Canada, but you know, we
67
00:04:04.400 --> 00:04:06.439
have something called Spectrum, which is just one of the
68
00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:09.800
mini services here at the beach, and I have nothing
69
00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:12.479
to me. I have a modem for Internet, and I've
70
00:04:12.520 --> 00:04:19.319
got basic television that's just the regular you know, TVs, CNN,
71
00:04:19.639 --> 00:04:22.879
those kinds of stations, nothing premium or anything. It's two
72
00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:26.199
hundred and nine dollars. I'm like that seems like a
73
00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:29.040
lot of money. Like yeah, So I'm like I call it,
74
00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:32.079
I check, I check other things, and it's like it's
75
00:04:32.120 --> 00:04:35.480
at least sixty to seventy dollars over price. So I
76
00:04:35.600 --> 00:04:37.399
called and say, you know, I'm going to cancel my
77
00:04:37.399 --> 00:04:40.879
service because it's too expensive. Okay, sir, how about what
78
00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:43.319
what do you want to pay? Like, well, I want
79
00:04:43.360 --> 00:04:45.959
to pay about one hundred and forty dollars and literally
80
00:04:45.959 --> 00:04:48.759
in three minutes, Okay, how about one hundred and forty
81
00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:49.439
two dollars.
82
00:04:50.040 --> 00:04:53.920
It's like okay, oh yeah, you're the one that kills me.
83
00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:56.160
Is our cable providers up here.
84
00:04:56.240 --> 00:04:56.480
Okay.
85
00:04:56.480 --> 00:04:59.399
They're always trying to secure a new business, right, so
86
00:04:59.439 --> 00:05:04.240
they offer these packages, okay, to lure people away from
87
00:05:04.279 --> 00:05:07.839
the other cable providers. Okay, well, you know your one
88
00:05:07.959 --> 00:05:11.120
hundred and eighty dollars bill with say Shaw's, okay, we'll
89
00:05:11.800 --> 00:05:14.120
we'll reduce that to one hundred and twenty five with
90
00:05:14.199 --> 00:05:17.000
TVTel or another company. Right, They're always playing that game
91
00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:20.959
to lure business, but they don't offer jack to their
92
00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:21.920
existing client.
93
00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:23.680
Bet you got to call up and complain.
94
00:05:23.759 --> 00:05:25.879
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
95
00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:28.000
And I did that and I got my bill reduced
96
00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:30.639
from one ninety down to one thirty five. I said,
97
00:05:30.759 --> 00:05:32.639
you know what, I'm going to play the game. Every
98
00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:35.439
two years, I'm going to lock myself into you, and
99
00:05:35.480 --> 00:05:37.079
at the end of two years, I'm going to go
100
00:05:37.120 --> 00:05:40.560
to somebody else, and two years after that somebody else.
101
00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:42.680
I'll bounce back to you. Now, do you want to
102
00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:44.839
keep me as a customer or you want to jerk
103
00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:47.920
me around? And well, we don't want to jerk your around,
104
00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:50.839
mister mcleoub we'll give you that deal. Meanwhile, they don't
105
00:05:50.879 --> 00:05:52.720
advertise a thing, and if you don't say a thing,
106
00:05:52.759 --> 00:05:54.560
they're happy to charge you one hundred and ninety for
107
00:05:54.560 --> 00:05:56.079
the rest of your life, right exactly.
108
00:05:56.120 --> 00:05:58.920
And that's just the way the way it works. And
109
00:05:59.000 --> 00:06:01.600
what they don't realize is that you and I are
110
00:06:01.639 --> 00:06:04.959
their worst nightmare. People that are retired with more time
111
00:06:05.160 --> 00:06:07.920
than particularly after the baseball season, we have.
112
00:06:07.879 --> 00:06:10.519
Time to dig.
113
00:06:09.680 --> 00:06:12.000
Into it and say, Okay, I'm going to make the
114
00:06:12.040 --> 00:06:15.079
call and spend forty five minutes complaining and that's you know,
115
00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:17.839
I did that, and it always is taken care of.
116
00:06:17.879 --> 00:06:20.680
But if you don't, Timmy that the bills just keep
117
00:06:20.759 --> 00:06:23.160
going up and it's not like one or two percent
118
00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:25.519
every year, it's like ten twelve. It's crazy.
119
00:06:26.399 --> 00:06:30.160
Well, yeah, you know, just off, offer me your best price,
120
00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:33.079
don't don't hose me, and hope I don't check my bill. Yeah,
121
00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:34.800
and that's so hey, I always that's the way I
122
00:06:34.879 --> 00:06:38.399
always feel I'm treated by, especially the cable providers.
123
00:06:38.439 --> 00:06:41.879
Oh they're awesome. So that was that was so I
124
00:06:41.920 --> 00:06:44.120
spent part of my day, part of my week doing that,
125
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:47.279
just getting kind of generally caught up on life. That's
126
00:06:47.439 --> 00:06:50.360
just the stuff that is not sexy. It's not fun,
127
00:06:50.439 --> 00:06:56.439
it's just life. And then Wednesday was the uh twos
128
00:06:56.439 --> 00:06:59.120
of your Wednesday was the day that I paid all
129
00:06:59.160 --> 00:07:03.319
of our twelve different dynasty leagues out, and tim it
130
00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:07.279
is a it's a fun day because I love giving
131
00:07:07.319 --> 00:07:13.079
the Prices Prize Moneys out, but it's also a stressful
132
00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:17.079
day because you get one shot to pay people out,
133
00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:19.560
and if you look at a line wrong and it's
134
00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:22.240
Joe that's supposed to get the first place, money and
135
00:07:22.279 --> 00:07:25.959
you give it the Bob. That's a bad day because
136
00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:26.519
it's gone.
137
00:07:27.560 --> 00:07:30.759
Bob is not happy, Joe is wondering what the heck's
138
00:07:30.759 --> 00:07:33.879
going on here? Like Christmas, right, I'm going to go
139
00:07:33.959 --> 00:07:35.879
spend it and take the way vote for supper right,
140
00:07:35.959 --> 00:07:36.720
something like that.
141
00:07:37.040 --> 00:07:40.199
It literally takes me three times as long as it should,
142
00:07:40.240 --> 00:07:42.879
just because I mean I check it like four times,
143
00:07:42.879 --> 00:07:43.600
like it's.
144
00:07:43.439 --> 00:07:46.120
Okay, do you want you want to do it? You
145
00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:47.600
want to do it right? Right? Yeah?
146
00:07:48.439 --> 00:07:48.519
Up?
147
00:07:48.519 --> 00:07:50.439
Because the worst thing to do is go back and
148
00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:52.920
say I just sent you one hundred dollars, you don't
149
00:07:52.959 --> 00:07:55.519
deserve that, And then I've got I got to rely
150
00:07:55.600 --> 00:07:57.439
on the guy giving me the money back, So I
151
00:07:57.480 --> 00:07:59.199
don't want to get into that. So that so I
152
00:07:59.240 --> 00:08:02.879
did all of that, and then I so we three
153
00:08:02.879 --> 00:08:06.439
different ways we were paying out of money. The Fantrak
154
00:08:06.480 --> 00:08:09.279
stuff was easy is literally go there and the treasury
155
00:08:09.319 --> 00:08:11.720
and you pay it out done like dinner. I did
156
00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:15.759
it a couple of leagues through my own PayPal account,
157
00:08:15.959 --> 00:08:18.319
which was pretty easy. But I'll never do that because
158
00:08:18.360 --> 00:08:22.040
I always had to have my PayPal account inflate it
159
00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:25.959
to not spend the money that was deposited in there,
160
00:08:25.959 --> 00:08:27.519
so I'm never going to do that again. That was
161
00:08:27.519 --> 00:08:30.079
a pain. And then we use the league safe, which
162
00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:34.879
we've used for at least a dozen years long and
163
00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:40.200
Tim experienced this, so I always did it as commissioner controlled,
164
00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:44.440
which means the commissioner gets to decide who gets paid
165
00:08:44.480 --> 00:08:46.240
and I'm on the up and end. But the other
166
00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:50.080
way to do it is the majority votes. So you
167
00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:53.919
say this is the allocation, and then the majority of
168
00:08:53.960 --> 00:08:56.120
the owners have got to say yes on that. It's
169
00:08:56.120 --> 00:08:58.320
a real pain. So I've never done that. But for
170
00:08:58.360 --> 00:09:01.600
some reason, and they say that, you know, all of
171
00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:03.799
my accounts were flagged. They think it was because it
172
00:09:03.879 --> 00:09:06.639
was the second year of a two year deal that
173
00:09:06.799 --> 00:09:10.159
it automatically got switched to the majority voted on. And
174
00:09:10.240 --> 00:09:15.720
I spent hours on email trying to have somebody explain
175
00:09:15.840 --> 00:09:19.480
to me why this was happening. Nobody could. They go,
176
00:09:19.600 --> 00:09:22.639
people will vote. If nobody votes, then it's you know,
177
00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:25.679
then it after two days, it just gets paid. I go,
178
00:09:25.799 --> 00:09:27.879
that's the dumbest thing I ever heard. Then I started
179
00:09:27.919 --> 00:09:32.200
hearing back from owners that they couldn't vote. They would
180
00:09:32.200 --> 00:09:35.159
click vote and it would say you can't vote because
181
00:09:35.200 --> 00:09:37.919
you haven't paid yet. So then I was getting emails
182
00:09:37.919 --> 00:09:40.879
from people going, I don't understand what's going on, and
183
00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:45.320
the League Safe never seemed to I never was able
184
00:09:45.360 --> 00:09:49.720
to communicate properly what I was going through, Like this
185
00:09:49.879 --> 00:09:52.919
is stupid, and they just said, well, it'll be done
186
00:09:52.919 --> 00:09:56.080
in two days, which it was, but it was done.
187
00:09:57.320 --> 00:10:00.039
Yeah, Like I shocked me all of a sudden, and
188
00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:02.440
I'm getting an email from leak Safe and it says
189
00:10:02.480 --> 00:10:05.440
you can vote, well, yeah, I can vote on what
190
00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:07.559
I don't even I don't know what the payouts are, right,
191
00:10:07.559 --> 00:10:09.600
that's the commissionery, you know what I mean.
192
00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:11.279
So I didn't have to send that email.
193
00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:13.960
It's like ignore that and then it and then since
194
00:10:13.960 --> 00:10:16.799
it involves money, people go, what's really going on here?
195
00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:19.360
You know. It's like and I totally get it, you know,
196
00:10:19.399 --> 00:10:22.120
and it just it made everybody look bad. So then
197
00:10:22.159 --> 00:10:24.639
I'm like, I'm never going to use leaks Safe again
198
00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:26.480
and we'll switch it all over to fan tracks.
199
00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:27.519
So then I.
200
00:10:27.440 --> 00:10:30.720
Start rolling over all the new all the leagues and
201
00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:33.840
I go, so I roll over one league and then
202
00:10:33.840 --> 00:10:36.639
I go to pay and it says, well, before you pay,
203
00:10:36.679 --> 00:10:41.039
we have to identify. We have to verify your identity
204
00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:43.000
what do you mean verifying my identity? So I had
205
00:10:43.039 --> 00:10:46.000
to put my my phone number and my home address
206
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:48.399
in there, and then I had to upload my driver's
207
00:10:48.440 --> 00:10:52.200
license a photo of my driver's license, and they've they've
208
00:10:52.240 --> 00:10:57.120
worked with they've worked with a verification service to make sure.
209
00:10:58.159 --> 00:11:01.360
I guess that the league is not laundering money or something.
210
00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:02.120
I don't know.
211
00:11:02.799 --> 00:11:03.960
And I'm like, well.
212
00:11:03.840 --> 00:11:08.360
See the other thing with fan tracked rich They're Canadian company. Okay,
213
00:11:08.480 --> 00:11:14.080
so it becomes an international incident, right, will be American based?
214
00:11:14.159 --> 00:11:17.600
Right? And they're a Canadian company. Did we get tariffed
215
00:11:17.600 --> 00:11:21.679
on that? By the way, Oh? Sorry, that's a rimshot.
216
00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:26.039
I don't know. So now I've I've rolled over two leagues,
217
00:11:26.080 --> 00:11:28.320
and I want to get the feedback from people whether
218
00:11:29.639 --> 00:11:31.480
I was a little schethed out by the whole thing.
219
00:11:31.519 --> 00:11:33.960
I'm like, I don't want to give you my driver's license,
220
00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:36.159
but I did, and I'm sure it's secure and I'm
221
00:11:36.200 --> 00:11:38.039
sure it's on the up and up and blah blah
222
00:11:38.080 --> 00:11:40.120
blah blah blah.
223
00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:41.200
But like, why did they do that?
224
00:11:41.519 --> 00:11:43.720
So I'm going to see how it reacts for the
225
00:11:43.759 --> 00:11:48.120
next few days. Bob King, Hi, our buddy, and DL
226
00:11:48.200 --> 00:11:49.919
five he did it, but he had money in his
227
00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:53.960
bank account. His fan tres make account, so as long
228
00:11:54.000 --> 00:11:55.679
as you have that, But if you're a new person,
229
00:11:55.679 --> 00:11:58.440
they want to verify your identity. I didn't have any
230
00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:01.759
money in my fant treks bake because I'm allowsy player.
231
00:12:02.240 --> 00:12:03.159
I didn't have anything.
232
00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:03.480
Bang.
233
00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:08.919
Yeah I'm on fan tracks right now. And yeah, I'm
234
00:12:08.960 --> 00:12:10.759
on fantractor right now. And there's a button that says
235
00:12:10.799 --> 00:12:12.799
if you want to find out riches drivers, I.
236
00:12:12.919 --> 00:12:13.440
Just take.
237
00:12:14.919 --> 00:12:15.200
Great.
238
00:12:16.039 --> 00:12:19.960
It was like, you know what your.
239
00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:22.120
Driver's license are, your passport, I'm going my passport. I'm like,
240
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:24.919
give you I think out of the two, I'd rather
241
00:12:25.360 --> 00:12:27.559
have my driver's licees of my pass.
242
00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:30.639
Yeah, you don't really care.
243
00:12:30.759 --> 00:12:33.320
Hey, maybe they'll pay your speeding tickets in Arizona, right
244
00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:37.399
or something like, Yeah, I know that's crazy.
245
00:12:37.960 --> 00:12:40.200
I had this laugh back that when we were in
246
00:12:40.279 --> 00:12:44.519
Paris last month, we went to Notre Dame and we
247
00:12:44.559 --> 00:12:46.480
did one of those self guided tours, you know, you
248
00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:49.360
put the headphones on, and those things have gotten really nice,
249
00:12:49.399 --> 00:12:52.960
by the way, and uh, and I went in and
250
00:12:52.960 --> 00:12:54.799
so I said, okay, you know, I signed up my
251
00:12:55.000 --> 00:12:58.080
three dollars or something to get this little device which
252
00:12:58.519 --> 00:13:01.360
looks like I don't know, fifty dollars a little thing,
253
00:13:01.399 --> 00:13:03.399
and they go, okay, well, to secure that, we need
254
00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:06.960
your driver's license. I go, my driver's license.
255
00:13:06.960 --> 00:13:07.600
Why am I giving it?
256
00:13:07.879 --> 00:13:11.279
We'll hold it in this little container, like I don't
257
00:13:11.320 --> 00:13:13.639
know if I like you having my driver's license. And
258
00:13:13.679 --> 00:13:15.679
the guys looked at me and goes, sir, this is
259
00:13:15.759 --> 00:13:18.879
no tradm. Your driver's license is secure here. I'm like,
260
00:13:19.919 --> 00:13:24.600
I'm I'm from Jersey. I don't believe anything.
261
00:13:26.639 --> 00:13:29.519
No, you're not convincing me, right, But.
262
00:13:29.559 --> 00:13:31.799
I said all right, I said all right. I mean
263
00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:34.600
if you lose this driver's license, I'm coming after you know,
264
00:13:34.720 --> 00:13:37.720
my attorneys will be in contact with you. But everything
265
00:13:37.840 --> 00:13:40.519
was just fine. I was like, don't people realize, like
266
00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:44.320
your identification stuff's like really important, Like I'm not giving
267
00:13:44.320 --> 00:13:46.320
you that stuff, but I wound up doing it. But anyway,
268
00:13:46.519 --> 00:13:49.159
so if anybody else has got experience with fan tracks,
269
00:13:49.200 --> 00:13:52.879
with this new verification process, let me know and we'll
270
00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:55.279
see how it goes in these leagues. If everybody's okay
271
00:13:55.320 --> 00:13:57.360
with it, then we'll do it that way. If not,
272
00:13:57.519 --> 00:13:59.000
I don't know what we'll do.
273
00:13:59.679 --> 00:14:02.440
I see I'm perfectly happy.
274
00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:07.240
I've I've used the van tracks disbursement for a number
275
00:14:07.320 --> 00:14:09.519
of leagues over the years and it works great.
276
00:14:09.559 --> 00:14:12.480
I've never had his terification process is brand new. It
277
00:14:12.559 --> 00:14:13.960
started apparently in this football.
278
00:14:14.039 --> 00:14:14.240
Yeah.
279
00:14:15.440 --> 00:14:18.360
So see what I like about van tracks is if
280
00:14:18.360 --> 00:14:23.159
I'm not mistaken fan tracks, I can use PayPal okay
281
00:14:23.200 --> 00:14:27.879
to dispert from fan tracks League Safes. It was a
282
00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:34.159
pain in the ass, yeah, because I'm Canadian, right, so
283
00:14:34.240 --> 00:14:36.080
I'm out of the country, so they have to send
284
00:14:36.080 --> 00:14:38.600
me a check. Then they send me a check and
285
00:14:38.639 --> 00:14:40.840
it's in US fund so I have to explain to
286
00:14:40.919 --> 00:14:44.559
a teller that this check is in US funds, not
287
00:14:44.720 --> 00:14:48.240
Canadian mister McLeod, We're gonna have to put a hold
288
00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:50.759
on that for three business weeks, okay. And it was
289
00:14:50.919 --> 00:14:54.600
just a really just oh yeah, no. Any check I
290
00:14:54.600 --> 00:14:57.679
got from League Safe, my bank would put a hold
291
00:14:57.720 --> 00:15:00.320
on it till it cleared, and if I I didn't
292
00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:03.919
mention it was US funds, then they would treat it
293
00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:08.080
as Canadian and then they would in turn reverse it
294
00:15:08.200 --> 00:15:10.679
and then credit me back in US when it eventually
295
00:15:10.759 --> 00:15:16.919
clear day. So you know, it was just yeah, I
296
00:15:16.960 --> 00:15:19.440
took the easy way out though. I just said to
297
00:15:19.440 --> 00:15:22.480
Bob King, Hi, Yeah, take take my share of the weddings,
298
00:15:22.519 --> 00:15:25.600
apply it against it, and I'll figure offen tracks later. Yeah.
299
00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:29.480
Sorry, sorry, Bob. I shouldn't have been a woost like that,
300
00:15:29.679 --> 00:15:30.960
but I was.
301
00:15:31.600 --> 00:15:33.279
Yeah, so it was funny. I was thinking, well, maybe
302
00:15:33.320 --> 00:15:36.360
I'll just use PayPal for everything and I'll be the bank.
303
00:15:36.720 --> 00:15:39.799
But tim me paid for two years. There's twelve leagues.
304
00:15:40.279 --> 00:15:45.200
That's eighteen hundred dollars times twelve that's twenty thousand dollars.
305
00:15:45.279 --> 00:15:46.879
I'd beholding. I'm not doing that.
306
00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:52.000
No, no, well it's it's much like I had some
307
00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:54.080
work done on my car on Monday. It cost me
308
00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:58.440
a couple thousand bucks. I ended up working on Tuesday
309
00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:01.000
Wednesday driving. He said, I just up your car, don't worry,
310
00:16:01.080 --> 00:16:02.799
but I know you're good for it. Just come in
311
00:16:02.879 --> 00:16:05.360
next week, next week when you've got some time, and.
312
00:16:05.320 --> 00:16:05.840
Pay for it.
313
00:16:06.360 --> 00:16:08.919
And I thought, you know, that's that's very nice of
314
00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:10.639
you to make that offer. But what happens if I
315
00:16:10.720 --> 00:16:12.960
kick the bucket sometime later in the week, You're never
316
00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:17.320
gonna get paid, okay, And I hate I hate playing
317
00:16:17.360 --> 00:16:19.720
that game. When I have a bill, I pay it,
318
00:16:19.840 --> 00:16:21.960
you know what I mean? I don't want to make
319
00:16:22.000 --> 00:16:24.960
anybody's life more complicated than it is. Not that I'm
320
00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:27.039
anticipating kicking anytimes.
321
00:16:26.600 --> 00:16:28.120
But you never know what's going to happen.
322
00:16:28.679 --> 00:16:31.240
And I appreciate the gest you're but at the same
323
00:16:31.279 --> 00:16:33.639
point in time, now you worked in my vehicle, I
324
00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:36.480
owe you money. I'm gonna pay you right now. Let's
325
00:16:36.519 --> 00:16:40.080
get it done right, So, yeah, I get it. Rich
326
00:16:40.080 --> 00:16:42.960
If you're sitting on twenty thirds, what happens? You know,
327
00:16:43.120 --> 00:16:48.360
you really want to hand that over to Laurie or
328
00:16:48.399 --> 00:16:48.799
the kids?
329
00:16:48.840 --> 00:16:49.320
You know what I mean?
330
00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:54.600
That what happens if God forbid, my PayPal its compromised
331
00:16:55.120 --> 00:16:59.039
and somebody's stealing. Yeah, you know, twenty dollars out of it?
332
00:16:59.080 --> 00:17:03.399
Guess what I have to come up with? Twenty thousand
333
00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:06.039
dollars of pay everybody out there? They're fun. I mean,
334
00:17:06.880 --> 00:17:08.160
you know it's just too much.
335
00:17:08.079 --> 00:17:09.680
You want to take? Do you want to take that?
336
00:17:09.720 --> 00:17:10.799
You want to take that risk?
337
00:17:11.279 --> 00:17:11.799
Yeah?
338
00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:15.519
I know. Again, I answered, I did it for two leagues.
339
00:17:15.279 --> 00:17:18.359
This last two years, and after I did, I'm thinking
340
00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:20.920
this is really dumb. This was not a good idea.
341
00:17:21.279 --> 00:17:25.119
So no, any anytime you can take a step out
342
00:17:25.119 --> 00:17:28.519
of the process where there could be a potential problem
343
00:17:28.599 --> 00:17:31.759
down the road. Get rid of that problem down the road,
344
00:17:31.880 --> 00:17:35.200
and fan Tracks will afford you that luxury. You pay
345
00:17:35.240 --> 00:17:37.839
it and it's paid out, it's done. I know right
346
00:17:37.880 --> 00:17:40.119
now they're going through through a bit of a pain
347
00:17:40.240 --> 00:17:45.319
with the identification thing. But one of the lessons to
348
00:17:45.319 --> 00:17:48.240
everybody is I'm not getting request of it. And I
349
00:17:48.279 --> 00:17:51.319
have twelve dollars and six cents in my fan tracks account,
350
00:17:51.680 --> 00:17:56.519
and I'll keep that twelve dollars in there forever because
351
00:17:56.599 --> 00:17:58.440
you know what I mean, I just if it saves
352
00:17:58.440 --> 00:18:01.880
me any hassles. Yeah, yeah, they've got some money of
353
00:18:01.920 --> 00:18:04.720
mine and I've never had to do the verification thing.
354
00:18:04.880 --> 00:18:07.119
So well, people are signing up. So the good news
355
00:18:07.200 --> 00:18:10.400
is at least some people are getting through the verification process.
356
00:18:10.440 --> 00:18:13.079
And so everybody who's playing the leagues, I'm meant the
357
00:18:13.720 --> 00:18:16.880
I've got d D three and d L five or
358
00:18:16.920 --> 00:18:20.440
the two leagues that I have signed up for next year,
359
00:18:20.519 --> 00:18:22.319
you rolled it over. I'm going to give that a
360
00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:25.200
couple of days, see how people are accustomed to it.
361
00:18:25.279 --> 00:18:26.759
Then I'll roll out a couple of more. I don't
362
00:18:26.759 --> 00:18:28.640
want to do all all of them at once, but
363
00:18:29.000 --> 00:18:31.160
we'll get everything rolled over here soon. But Timmy, let's
364
00:18:31.279 --> 00:18:33.240
let's come on to some last ye quick break and
365
00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:36.799
get back and let's talk baseball. And we're going to
366
00:18:36.880 --> 00:18:38.240
draft the second third round.
367
00:18:39.480 --> 00:18:48.759
Yeah.
368
00:18:39.960 --> 00:18:52.200
Look, actually probably just the second round, but we'll see
369
00:18:52.200 --> 00:18:55.799
how that goes. But Timmy, we've had playoffs. We've had
370
00:18:56.079 --> 00:19:00.400
the wildcard done and dusted, and the divisional series best
371
00:19:00.440 --> 00:19:04.720
out of five or underway. Uh so, yes, the Yankees
372
00:19:04.720 --> 00:19:07.160
beat the Red Sox two to one, the Tigers beat
373
00:19:07.200 --> 00:19:10.559
the Guards two to one, Cubs beat the Padres to one,
374
00:19:10.640 --> 00:19:13.680
and then the Dodgers were the only ones that won
375
00:19:13.720 --> 00:19:16.920
two in a row against the reds It was a
376
00:19:16.960 --> 00:19:22.799
pretty exciting, uh, pretty exciting wild cards where we had, yeah,
377
00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:26.519
three of the four go to a sudden death kind
378
00:19:26.519 --> 00:19:27.000
of playoffs.
379
00:19:27.000 --> 00:19:31.640
I was good, Yeah, it was Uh they needed the
380
00:19:31.640 --> 00:19:33.240
they needed the best two or of three and three
381
00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:36.119
out of four, which is which is excellently.
382
00:19:36.119 --> 00:19:38.799
They were close series. Uh.
383
00:19:39.359 --> 00:19:46.480
I think when I look at the results, I the
384
00:19:46.519 --> 00:19:50.079
one that the one that would be surprising, uh, of
385
00:19:50.119 --> 00:19:54.759
the three would be the Tigers Guardians. Yeah, the Tigers
386
00:19:54.799 --> 00:19:59.599
limped into the playoffs, you know, just barely scraping.
387
00:19:59.680 --> 00:19:59.880
Boy.
388
00:20:00.400 --> 00:20:04.160
And not only did they get by the Guardians in three,
389
00:20:04.200 --> 00:20:06.000
but they're a game up on the Mariners.
390
00:20:06.240 --> 00:20:08.680
Uh, we were right now.
391
00:20:08.640 --> 00:20:12.240
And then they got school got the pitch in that series.
392
00:20:12.400 --> 00:20:14.880
So you got to pretty good about that.
393
00:20:16.039 --> 00:20:18.480
Well you look at uh you look at his win
394
00:20:18.599 --> 00:20:22.039
in the wild card round? Was it seven and two?
395
00:20:22.119 --> 00:20:24.880
There's three hits and earned run fourteen straightouts?
396
00:20:26.200 --> 00:20:27.640
Yeah, it was impressive.
397
00:20:28.799 --> 00:20:35.519
Well, guy, yeah, there's no doubt in my mind. I
398
00:20:35.559 --> 00:20:38.720
know we drafted the first round and there's no note
399
00:20:38.759 --> 00:20:41.640
Schooble right now? Is he is the best starting pitcher
400
00:20:41.640 --> 00:20:46.559
in the league again, Yeah, he's He's the guy that
401
00:20:46.640 --> 00:20:50.279
you want. You know, Paul Schemes, you know, hasn't hasn't
402
00:20:50.279 --> 00:20:52.960
broke the the two e r A mark yet in
403
00:20:52.960 --> 00:20:56.839
his career. But I'll take Schooble every day over Schemes
404
00:20:56.839 --> 00:20:57.920
in a redraft format.
405
00:20:58.599 --> 00:21:01.839
Yeah, I will too. But it's I'm not sure I
406
00:21:01.960 --> 00:21:04.559
believe that that schoobl is that much of a better
407
00:21:04.680 --> 00:21:07.440
pitcher than Paul Skeins. I think the Tigers are a
408
00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:12.079
better team than the Pittsburgh Pirates, and you know, you've
409
00:21:12.079 --> 00:21:15.400
got more help. I know the Pirates have got Connor
410
00:21:15.400 --> 00:21:20.079
Griffin coming, but the the Tigers got some really good
411
00:21:20.079 --> 00:21:22.200
players coming, and so I think that's a team at
412
00:21:22.319 --> 00:21:23.880
least in the next few years are going to be good.
413
00:21:23.880 --> 00:21:26.720
And once Scooble goes to free agency, he's going to
414
00:21:26.880 --> 00:21:29.880
sign with the Red Sox or the Yankees, and he's
415
00:21:29.880 --> 00:21:32.319
going to win more games. Yeah, you know you picked
416
00:21:32.640 --> 00:21:35.599
it's he might resign with the Tigers. The Tigers have
417
00:21:35.640 --> 00:21:38.839
been known to sign some big free agents. Have your bias,
418
00:21:39.039 --> 00:21:40.480
but it's.
419
00:21:40.359 --> 00:21:45.039
Uh yeah that that almost sounded like something I were
420
00:21:45.119 --> 00:21:46.920
just said, Rich, well done, I like it.
421
00:21:48.920 --> 00:21:51.759
Have your bias. They cost spent a lot of money
422
00:21:51.759 --> 00:21:54.880
on that guy. It didn't work out, unfortunately, But uh
423
00:21:55.839 --> 00:21:58.440
that the game the series I found him as well.
424
00:21:58.480 --> 00:22:01.119
I thought the Yankees Red Sox is probably the most fascinating.
425
00:22:01.160 --> 00:22:04.759
But the one I felt bad a little bit about
426
00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:08.920
is the Padres. Again put it all on red at
427
00:22:08.920 --> 00:22:12.680
the deadline. They really have nobody left in the minor
428
00:22:12.759 --> 00:22:16.039
league sands Ethan Sallas and a couple other guys that
429
00:22:16.200 --> 00:22:19.440
might be there. I mean, their minor league system is done.
430
00:22:20.079 --> 00:22:22.400
Their their major league team is starting to get a
431
00:22:22.440 --> 00:22:26.759
little bit old. I don't know, Timmy, this might be
432
00:22:26.839 --> 00:22:29.559
the last year that they had a chance to really
433
00:22:29.559 --> 00:22:31.559
compete and then if, of course they've got to climb
434
00:22:31.599 --> 00:22:33.559
over the Dodgers, which is nearly impossible.
435
00:22:34.839 --> 00:22:36.799
Well, yeah, they're in a tough spot. But I think
436
00:22:36.799 --> 00:22:37.440
as long as a J.
437
00:22:37.599 --> 00:22:40.000
Pereler is running the show there, I think we know
438
00:22:40.039 --> 00:22:43.920
what we can expect. Yeah, he'll he'll find some He'll
439
00:22:43.920 --> 00:22:48.680
find some eighteen nineteen year old kids and move them
440
00:22:48.680 --> 00:22:52.839
for pieces ages and wind it up. And I think
441
00:22:52.839 --> 00:22:54.799
that's just who aj Peler is.
442
00:22:55.440 --> 00:22:58.039
But at some point you can't believe a turn up, right,
443
00:22:58.079 --> 00:23:01.200
I mean, at some point you're you have nothing else
444
00:23:01.559 --> 00:23:03.039
that people want?
445
00:23:05.680 --> 00:23:07.880
Is it that bad in San Diego? At the in
446
00:23:07.920 --> 00:23:15.119
the lower levels of their miners? Yes, okay, looking for
447
00:23:15.160 --> 00:23:16.200
a job in a couple of years.
448
00:23:16.200 --> 00:23:19.119
Really think they're I mean again, Ethan Sallas is still there,
449
00:23:19.200 --> 00:23:21.440
so that's a guy that they can move. And they
450
00:23:21.519 --> 00:23:23.880
you know, the first round draft pick is okay, cash
451
00:23:23.960 --> 00:23:27.400
may feel is okay from last year, but it's yeah,
452
00:23:27.440 --> 00:23:30.039
before they you know, they would have ten to twelve guys.
453
00:23:30.200 --> 00:23:32.880
They're getting down to two or three guys that they
454
00:23:32.880 --> 00:23:35.880
can move. I mean, they're they're running out of players,
455
00:23:36.599 --> 00:23:38.960
and I you know, it's probably long.
456
00:23:39.240 --> 00:23:40.039
How long can you get?
457
00:23:40.960 --> 00:23:43.279
Yeah, how long can you get your miners before eventually
458
00:23:43.279 --> 00:23:45.039
there's nothing left right exactly.
459
00:23:45.079 --> 00:23:48.359
I mean, it's just been year after year of decimating
460
00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:51.920
that and now Darvish is what how old and Cease
461
00:23:52.000 --> 00:23:54.759
is probably going to move and they're just all of
462
00:23:54.799 --> 00:23:58.400
a sudden that window has closed and their minor league
463
00:23:58.480 --> 00:24:02.119
system is barren and and it doesn't feel good to
464
00:24:02.119 --> 00:24:04.079
be a San Diego Padres fan at the moment.
465
00:24:05.680 --> 00:24:09.480
No, I think they'll have a good team, but again,
466
00:24:09.680 --> 00:24:12.880
being in the same division as the Dodgers, that's tough.
467
00:24:13.400 --> 00:24:17.720
It really is. Yeah, the other thing I wanted to see.
468
00:24:18.519 --> 00:24:20.240
The other thing I wanted to comment on it because
469
00:24:20.240 --> 00:24:23.400
I know Trey you Savage is pitching tonight or this afternoon.
470
00:24:24.440 --> 00:24:29.920
It has been remarkable how these young pitchers, and usually
471
00:24:29.920 --> 00:24:33.319
you see young pitchers come up and really struggle out
472
00:24:33.359 --> 00:24:36.480
of the minor league, but we saw in New York.
473
00:24:36.559 --> 00:24:41.400
I mean, Jonah Tong showed showed periods of complete domination.
474
00:24:42.079 --> 00:24:44.920
Nolan McClain was one of the best pitchers in the
475
00:24:44.920 --> 00:24:47.640
major leagues at the end of the season. He looked great.
476
00:24:48.160 --> 00:24:50.359
Cam Schlittler, I don't know if you saw that game,
477
00:24:51.079 --> 00:24:55.079
whatever idea it was eight innings, five hits, no one runs,
478
00:24:55.119 --> 00:24:58.680
twelve strikeouts and no walks. I mean, you can't pitch
479
00:24:58.720 --> 00:24:59.440
better than that.
480
00:25:00.680 --> 00:25:03.160
No, I guess the only the only complaint I had
481
00:25:03.200 --> 00:25:07.079
about that performance was the fact that you could tell
482
00:25:07.119 --> 00:25:10.319
once you got into about the seventh inning, okay, the
483
00:25:10.359 --> 00:25:14.440
reds Socks were beat Okay, And why didn't Why didn't
484
00:25:14.920 --> 00:25:19.039
Bon go out and pullshit Schulitler with two outs in
485
00:25:19.119 --> 00:25:21.960
the seventh or one out in the seventh and get
486
00:25:22.000 --> 00:25:24.319
him out of there. He threw a career high I
487
00:25:24.319 --> 00:25:27.960
think innings pitched. You know, he threw a lot of balls.
488
00:25:28.000 --> 00:25:30.440
He's a young player. I would have pulled. I would
489
00:25:30.440 --> 00:25:32.200
have pulled him out of there early. And I wouldn't
490
00:25:32.240 --> 00:25:35.920
have gone with David Bedner with a four nothing lead
491
00:25:35.960 --> 00:25:38.279
in the deciding game. I would have put somebody else
492
00:25:38.319 --> 00:25:41.559
out there, Okay, see if they could get through it,
493
00:25:41.640 --> 00:25:43.880
and if they needed to at that point, I could
494
00:25:43.920 --> 00:25:47.119
have brought Bedner in by going with the with a
495
00:25:47.160 --> 00:25:50.480
four nothing, by going with bedn Way, if he struggles,
496
00:25:50.920 --> 00:25:53.799
then you're in trouble. And I just don't think either
497
00:25:54.039 --> 00:25:56.799
either move was really smart by Aaron Boone. I'm not
498
00:25:56.839 --> 00:26:00.240
a big Aaron Boon fan. I I'm not.
499
00:26:01.119 --> 00:26:02.960
Yeah, I mean, I think that's I think that's fair,
500
00:26:03.000 --> 00:26:05.400
but it doesn't take away from him. Camp Schlittler was
501
00:26:05.440 --> 00:26:08.559
both of ours guys that we had on the list
502
00:26:08.880 --> 00:26:11.039
last week for potential sleepers.
503
00:26:11.119 --> 00:26:11.519
Yeah.
504
00:26:11.640 --> 00:26:14.240
I don't think he's a sleeper town. I think he's
505
00:26:14.279 --> 00:26:16.079
gonna be overpriced.
506
00:26:16.160 --> 00:26:20.400
Now, I love that line in your notes. He was
507
00:26:20.440 --> 00:26:23.279
one of my targets last week. I'm not going to
508
00:26:23.359 --> 00:26:26.640
get him, am I. Well, I can't say that, I
509
00:26:26.960 --> 00:26:30.240
laughed out loud. I don't want to be the bearer
510
00:26:30.240 --> 00:26:33.640
of bad news. Yes, you can get him, you're not
511
00:26:33.720 --> 00:26:41.160
getting him as a bargain. I mean, I I so,
512
00:26:41.759 --> 00:26:43.799
am I. I can tell you how many teams he's
513
00:26:43.839 --> 00:26:46.519
going to be on. Of mine one it's a Dynasty team.
514
00:26:46.519 --> 00:26:51.400
And I picked him up. Okay, and yeah that worked?
515
00:26:51.720 --> 00:26:52.160
That worked?
516
00:26:52.160 --> 00:26:54.799
Oh well, But I can see him going in the
517
00:26:54.799 --> 00:26:55.839
first five rounds.
518
00:26:56.039 --> 00:26:59.720
Oh yeah, absolutely. I mean it's it's that that would
519
00:26:59.720 --> 00:27:02.160
be I remember first time I saw him, and again,
520
00:27:02.200 --> 00:27:03.960
I go to a lot of Yankees games, so I
521
00:27:04.359 --> 00:27:08.240
see these guys, uh, and I didn't somehow I missed
522
00:27:08.279 --> 00:27:11.920
Cam Schlittler until I went to one of the playoff games.
523
00:27:11.960 --> 00:27:15.279
That the double a Affhilate was in last season, and
524
00:27:15.319 --> 00:27:17.920
I see ca' oh, Cam Schlittler's pitching great. I've heard
525
00:27:17.960 --> 00:27:20.359
I've heard about this guy, but no one had been
526
00:27:20.400 --> 00:27:23.200
really talking about him. It was just like I've heard him.
527
00:27:23.279 --> 00:27:25.680
People told me he's got a good fastball. He was
528
00:27:25.720 --> 00:27:28.839
pumping ninety eight miles an hour. Just no one could
529
00:27:28.920 --> 00:27:31.440
hit this guy. He was into my top twenty of
530
00:27:31.480 --> 00:27:34.400
the Yankees, and I went back I remember going back
531
00:27:34.400 --> 00:27:37.559
home that night and writing my top twenty, going, I
532
00:27:37.559 --> 00:27:40.400
think this guy's a player. And then he just completely
533
00:27:40.440 --> 00:27:41.440
blew up the season.
534
00:27:42.799 --> 00:27:44.960
Yeah, you know, if you take a look and you
535
00:27:45.119 --> 00:27:50.000
go back to you know, twenty twenty four, twenty twenty three. Uh,
536
00:27:50.559 --> 00:27:54.000
he showed flashes, but his whip in the minors was
537
00:27:54.079 --> 00:27:57.640
like one forty two fifty eight, one fifty seven, you
538
00:27:57.680 --> 00:27:58.079
know what I mean.
539
00:27:58.160 --> 00:28:02.599
He he was far from a finished product heading into
540
00:28:02.640 --> 00:28:03.160
this year.
541
00:28:03.799 --> 00:28:09.519
And you know what that was, Yes, because he walked
542
00:28:09.599 --> 00:28:12.480
thirty eight and eighty six and two thirds in twenty
543
00:28:12.519 --> 00:28:13.519
twenty four at high eight.
544
00:28:13.640 --> 00:28:16.720
That's why, right, Yeah, I mean, and the Yankees were
545
00:28:16.759 --> 00:28:20.920
trying to have him find a third pitch and his changeup,
546
00:28:20.960 --> 00:28:24.359
which is in general, what you need, and he was
547
00:28:24.400 --> 00:28:26.720
just walking way to me. He couldn't land it and
548
00:28:26.880 --> 00:28:30.119
he was getting hit hard, and the Yankees just said, well, good,
549
00:28:30.119 --> 00:28:33.039
we'll make you. You'll make you a two pitch pitcher,
550
00:28:33.079 --> 00:28:36.799
throw you to the bullpen. And it all of a sudden,
551
00:28:36.839 --> 00:28:39.079
he just kept pitching. He kept getting guys out. He
552
00:28:39.160 --> 00:28:41.440
got a chance in the major leagues, he got guys out,
553
00:28:41.480 --> 00:28:44.839
and then we have the game last week. It's just amazing.
554
00:28:44.920 --> 00:28:47.960
It's it's kind of Bryce Miller from Seattle. It's a
555
00:28:48.119 --> 00:28:51.880
very similar kind of profile or Joe Ryan, the guys
556
00:28:51.880 --> 00:28:55.240
that have this fabulous fastball and they live off of that.
557
00:28:56.000 --> 00:28:58.559
And you know he's going to it looks like Cam
558
00:28:58.599 --> 00:29:00.839
Schelton was going to defy the eye. It's a guy
559
00:29:00.920 --> 00:29:05.799
that can get by throwing primarily a fastball and it's
560
00:29:05.839 --> 00:29:06.400
that good.
561
00:29:07.519 --> 00:29:11.759
Well yeah, and yeah, he's a big kid. He's six six, yeah,
562
00:29:11.759 --> 00:29:16.720
two fifteen. Yeah, he's a big kid. And if he
563
00:29:16.759 --> 00:29:20.039
can survive off that and make it work like like
564
00:29:20.119 --> 00:29:23.119
we've seen him make it work so far in seventy
565
00:29:23.160 --> 00:29:28.079
three big league gainnings, fourteen starts in the playoffs, yeah,
566
00:29:27.400 --> 00:29:34.440
I think we can. Yeah, it's much like uh, the
567
00:29:34.480 --> 00:29:38.640
batter for the for the Angels, Joe Adell. Okay, yeah,
568
00:29:39.160 --> 00:29:41.440
he's got issues, he's got problems. He's far from a
569
00:29:41.440 --> 00:29:44.559
complete player. But you take what he has to offer
570
00:29:44.680 --> 00:29:47.880
and run with it, or you continually try and get
571
00:29:47.920 --> 00:29:52.160
him to change his game to make him better long
572
00:29:52.240 --> 00:29:54.720
term when it's not going to happen at some point
573
00:29:54.759 --> 00:29:56.759
in time, don't you just sort of have to accept
574
00:29:58.000 --> 00:30:00.359
he is who he is and go with it.
575
00:30:00.720 --> 00:30:02.359
I think you got to give the Yankees a lot
576
00:30:02.400 --> 00:30:04.759
of credit because they they kind of came to that
577
00:30:04.839 --> 00:30:08.400
conclusion before, you know, they let things get too far
578
00:30:08.400 --> 00:30:11.480
out of hand, and you know, and look, they needed
579
00:30:11.519 --> 00:30:14.319
him at the biggest spot in the season for them.
580
00:30:14.799 --> 00:30:18.119
The best of three tied at one one and they're
581
00:30:18.160 --> 00:30:21.000
putting in a guy, you know, who's a twenty four
582
00:30:21.079 --> 00:30:23.839
year old rookie and saying, you got to pitch like
583
00:30:24.039 --> 00:30:27.400
you like you've never pitched before. And he did it well.
584
00:30:27.480 --> 00:30:29.359
Yeah, and you know what, the Red Sox did the
585
00:30:29.359 --> 00:30:32.519
same thing with Connolly early and he didn't look bad.
586
00:30:32.799 --> 00:30:35.839
He didn't a little bit, but no, he didn't look
587
00:30:35.880 --> 00:30:36.359
bad at all.
588
00:30:36.400 --> 00:30:39.480
And yeah, credit to Alex Corus stuck up for in
589
00:30:39.519 --> 00:30:43.720
the post game he said, yeah, the problem was too many.
590
00:30:43.559 --> 00:30:45.039
Errors on d Yeah.
591
00:30:46.119 --> 00:30:51.160
Yeah, he really really stuck up for early. So let's
592
00:30:51.519 --> 00:30:52.440
get bodes well.
593
00:30:52.319 --> 00:30:55.319
For this has been a real I don't think people
594
00:30:55.359 --> 00:31:00.160
realize how good this season has been for rookie pitchers
595
00:31:00.200 --> 00:31:05.039
early and totally and Tong and Schlittler. I mean, they're
596
00:31:05.160 --> 00:31:07.359
going on and on these guys that came up, and.
597
00:31:07.279 --> 00:31:12.440
The Chase Chase, Chase Burns who came exactly. I mean,
598
00:31:12.480 --> 00:31:13.559
it's just men.
599
00:31:13.880 --> 00:31:16.559
These guys are and Trey you Savage goes tonight and
600
00:31:18.680 --> 00:31:22.559
you know, call me crazy, he might pitch very well tonight.
601
00:31:22.599 --> 00:31:25.200
That guy's got really good stuff in another kid that's
602
00:31:25.519 --> 00:31:29.680
a heavy fastball guy. So we're we're it's pretty cool
603
00:31:29.720 --> 00:31:32.920
what's happening here, uh in the second half with pitching,
604
00:31:32.960 --> 00:31:36.200
and lord knows we need a pitching in Fantasy baseball
605
00:31:36.240 --> 00:31:37.960
and maybe we're getting a little shot of it here.
606
00:31:39.240 --> 00:31:45.400
Yeah, and again the Moris Operende seems to be high in.
607
00:31:45.440 --> 00:31:48.839
Nineties and a lot of I.
608
00:31:48.799 --> 00:31:52.279
Shouldn't say a lot, but I think there are you know, hey,
609
00:31:52.680 --> 00:31:54.960
these guys are all throwing hard. At some point in
610
00:31:55.000 --> 00:31:57.079
time there might be problemstake which you can get well
611
00:31:57.119 --> 00:31:59.319
you can get if that makes sense, you know what
612
00:31:59.359 --> 00:31:59.640
I mean.
613
00:31:59.720 --> 00:32:01.559
It's they're not good.
614
00:32:01.559 --> 00:32:03.440
There's a problems.
615
00:32:03.519 --> 00:32:05.640
Yeah, just you know, we don't want to be negative
616
00:32:05.720 --> 00:32:09.440
nancies here, but they're gonna break. They all break, yep.
617
00:32:10.640 --> 00:32:13.079
And when they're all throwing one hundred miles an hour?
618
00:32:13.160 --> 00:32:18.359
Did you did you you see Mason Millller like at
619
00:32:18.400 --> 00:32:20.519
the end of the year, Like, how do you hit
620
00:32:20.559 --> 00:32:23.799
that like one hundred and four miles an hour on
621
00:32:23.839 --> 00:32:27.680
the corners? Like good luck? You know what I mean.
622
00:32:27.799 --> 00:32:31.200
That's crazy, It's just crazy.
623
00:32:31.839 --> 00:32:34.559
Makes the Miller's a freak. And I'm he had so
624
00:32:34.680 --> 00:32:36.599
many injuries when he was in the upper levels of
625
00:32:36.640 --> 00:32:39.039
the minor leagues and then even you know, trying to
626
00:32:39.079 --> 00:32:41.640
get up, and then he's been relatively healthy this first
627
00:32:41.640 --> 00:32:43.720
two years in the in the big leagues, which is
628
00:32:43.759 --> 00:32:44.480
pretty crazy.
629
00:32:45.400 --> 00:32:47.519
Well, yeah, because I think you only had like thirty
630
00:32:47.559 --> 00:32:49.720
five innings and in the minors or something like that
631
00:32:49.839 --> 00:32:51.000
was absolutely.
632
00:32:50.960 --> 00:32:52.680
I think I think the number is accurate.
633
00:32:52.759 --> 00:32:58.000
Yes, yeah, it was next to nothing in the minor leagues.
634
00:32:58.200 --> 00:33:01.359
He wasn't healthy for ten minutes. But so far, so good,
635
00:33:01.519 --> 00:33:05.599
and man, you're not gonna hit him, you just don't.
636
00:33:05.839 --> 00:33:07.799
So let me use the question spinning back to the
637
00:33:07.839 --> 00:33:11.119
Red Sox Jared Duran. I mean, there has been rumors
638
00:33:11.160 --> 00:33:13.720
that he'll get moved in the off season, just because
639
00:33:14.200 --> 00:33:17.240
they have that flexibility that they've got so many young
640
00:33:18.680 --> 00:33:21.079
outfielders coming up, and they got to find room for
641
00:33:21.160 --> 00:33:24.480
Christian Campbell, etc. And Durant's a good player and could
642
00:33:24.480 --> 00:33:27.680
return a top flight pitcher. I know he was a
643
00:33:27.880 --> 00:33:31.279
second round pick and he's probably a third or fourth
644
00:33:31.359 --> 00:33:33.359
round pick for this coming season. I don't know what
645
00:33:33.480 --> 00:33:36.240
you think. Should I be happy with what he produced
646
00:33:37.039 --> 00:33:39.240
in twenty twenty five? Do you think there's more in
647
00:33:39.279 --> 00:33:42.119
the tank? Do you think he's not as good as
648
00:33:42.160 --> 00:33:45.000
maybe he was in twenty twenty four? What you're thinking
649
00:33:44.640 --> 00:33:46.880
of Jared Duran.
650
00:33:49.480 --> 00:33:53.400
I like Jared Duran, but they're always you know, he's
651
00:33:53.440 --> 00:33:54.640
almost thirty years old.
652
00:33:54.680 --> 00:33:58.559
Now, Oh really is he twenty nine? Really?
653
00:33:59.599 --> 00:34:05.079
Yeah, he's twenty nine. He just turned in September. Wow,
654
00:34:05.440 --> 00:34:13.280
he's born in ninety six. I liked Duran, but at
655
00:34:13.280 --> 00:34:15.679
the same point in time, it seems like every once
656
00:34:15.719 --> 00:34:20.119
in a while he just has a brain cramp. And
657
00:34:20.159 --> 00:34:22.719
like I know, in the playoffs, there was one play
658
00:34:22.880 --> 00:34:25.599
I can't remember. It's specific, but there's one play at started.
659
00:34:25.639 --> 00:34:35.599
It just I don't know. I I just he's not
660
00:34:35.679 --> 00:34:39.039
on my list of players that I think we've seen
661
00:34:39.079 --> 00:34:42.079
the best. We're going to see both offensively and defensively.
662
00:34:43.760 --> 00:34:45.480
All right, So let me let me give you some
663
00:34:45.480 --> 00:34:51.400
some other outfielders here, okay. Jaron Duran or Roman Anthony
664
00:34:51.920 --> 00:34:53.159
for twenty.
665
00:34:52.719 --> 00:34:56.679
Twenty six, Oh Anthony, no question.
666
00:34:57.599 --> 00:35:00.480
Jaron Duran or Pete Crow Armstrong.
667
00:35:03.000 --> 00:35:04.199
Heat Crow Armstrong.
668
00:35:05.599 --> 00:35:10.039
Jared Durant or Jackson Merrill your bane of its existence
669
00:35:10.079 --> 00:35:11.880
in twenty five.
670
00:35:14.079 --> 00:35:18.440
Jackson Merrill. I think Jackson Merril will eventually be a
671
00:35:19.000 --> 00:35:22.679
back of the first early second round pick. He just
672
00:35:22.719 --> 00:35:24.679
had a tough year, a lot of injuries. He never
673
00:35:24.719 --> 00:35:27.119
got on tracked. I like the player though a lot.
674
00:35:27.840 --> 00:35:30.400
Jared Durant or O'Neill Cruz.
675
00:35:36.039 --> 00:35:37.679
It is neither acceptable.
676
00:35:37.880 --> 00:35:41.199
Yeah, so that's starting to get into Let me give
677
00:35:41.239 --> 00:35:43.880
you one. Let me give you one more. Jared Durant
678
00:35:44.199 --> 00:35:47.679
or Michael Harris.
679
00:35:49.119 --> 00:35:54.239
Michael Harris, Yes, Michael Sarahs is six six years younger.
680
00:35:54.280 --> 00:35:56.360
If I'm not mistaken, I think Harris is only twenty three,
681
00:35:56.400 --> 00:35:59.440
twenty four. He is, I'll tell you, yeah, he's young.
682
00:36:01.599 --> 00:36:05.039
Yes, so he is not. He was an early second
683
00:36:05.159 --> 00:36:10.199
round pick this year, probably a top seventy eight outfielder.
684
00:36:10.199 --> 00:36:13.280
He's more of a top twenty outfielder, it sounds like
685
00:36:13.360 --> 00:36:14.719
in twenty twenty six.
686
00:36:16.320 --> 00:36:17.760
Yeah, I don't.
687
00:36:17.880 --> 00:36:20.039
I'm not going to have him top ten, that's for sure.
688
00:36:20.840 --> 00:36:23.159
And you know what, Harris finished really strong and I'm
689
00:36:23.159 --> 00:36:26.199
just looking at the numbers. He ended up going twenty
690
00:36:26.239 --> 00:36:31.400
twenty this year must have been after I I lambastered him,
691
00:36:31.599 --> 00:36:35.239
lambased him on the podcast. Yeah, he played really he
692
00:36:35.360 --> 00:36:36.880
played really well down on the stretch.
693
00:36:37.280 --> 00:36:38.280
Yep, he did.
694
00:36:38.519 --> 00:36:44.440
Yeah, and hopefully that carries forward into twenty twenty six.
695
00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:48.400
I know it gets boring to talk about show hey Otani,
696
00:36:48.559 --> 00:36:52.559
but I mean, he was really good last night pitching.
697
00:36:53.440 --> 00:36:56.119
Rookie Sazaki is another rookie pitcher. By the way, I
698
00:36:56.159 --> 00:36:58.559
know it's rookie Sazaki. We've been talking about him forever.
699
00:36:59.119 --> 00:37:01.639
He pitched really well, closed out the closed out the
700
00:37:02.199 --> 00:37:05.480
game last night. But show Aotani looked great in the
701
00:37:05.519 --> 00:37:08.960
wild Card series, a couple three home runs and last
702
00:37:09.039 --> 00:37:12.559
night pitch six innings, three aaron runs and he was great,
703
00:37:12.679 --> 00:37:17.639
nine strikeouts, one walk. It's just he's just I mean
704
00:37:17.880 --> 00:37:20.480
I think Aaron Judge is every bit the hit or
705
00:37:20.480 --> 00:37:23.599
a show Heyo Tony, but you're throwing an elite pitcher
706
00:37:23.639 --> 00:37:24.280
on top of that.
707
00:37:24.280 --> 00:37:25.800
And it's just nuts.
708
00:37:26.000 --> 00:37:28.840
Right, Well, we said a few weeks ago, I think
709
00:37:28.880 --> 00:37:30.559
you brought it up. You know, we're just going to
710
00:37:30.639 --> 00:37:35.000
give him the MVP until he retires. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
711
00:37:35.239 --> 00:37:41.360
How can you not. What we're witnessing is historical, Okay,
712
00:37:41.599 --> 00:37:43.719
we've never seen anything like that. People compared him to
713
00:37:43.719 --> 00:37:46.199
Baby Ruth. That was one hundred years ago. A good
714
00:37:46.199 --> 00:37:49.159
fastball back then was eighty two miles an hour. Okay,
715
00:37:49.360 --> 00:37:52.239
that's not even a BP fastball today. You know, it's
716
00:37:52.280 --> 00:37:55.440
the game has changed, and we have never seen anybody
717
00:37:55.480 --> 00:37:57.679
the likes of Showy or Tony. That home run that
718
00:37:57.719 --> 00:38:00.519
he hit, what was it four fifty four or something
719
00:38:00.599 --> 00:38:04.360
like that, Like that ball was screaming out from the
720
00:38:04.400 --> 00:38:06.039
time of I think it was one hundred and ten
721
00:38:06.079 --> 00:38:06.880
mile an hour.
722
00:38:06.800 --> 00:38:11.000
Ex it was. That's crazy, just insane, and I think
723
00:38:11.039 --> 00:38:11.559
we should be.
724
00:38:11.559 --> 00:38:15.159
Very thankful that we're getting the opportunity to see a
725
00:38:15.199 --> 00:38:18.960
player of this caliber in his prime, because if you
726
00:38:19.000 --> 00:38:21.159
would have told me ten years ago this was going
727
00:38:21.199 --> 00:38:25.480
to happen, I'd still be laughing. Okay, it's not gonna happen.
728
00:38:25.719 --> 00:38:30.599
Players don't do what Shoeyotani does. It's you know, it's unicorn.
729
00:38:30.719 --> 00:38:32.079
That's the only way, you know what I mean, the
730
00:38:32.079 --> 00:38:33.079
only way to describe it.
731
00:38:33.199 --> 00:38:33.360
Rich.
732
00:38:33.719 --> 00:38:36.480
Yeah, maybe there'll be another show Heyotani at some point,
733
00:38:36.519 --> 00:38:39.360
but I mean, we haven't seen him. We haven't seen
734
00:38:39.440 --> 00:38:41.800
him really, I guess since Babe Ruth, I think you're
735
00:38:41.880 --> 00:38:45.760
right there. And again there's been there's been other hitters
736
00:38:46.559 --> 00:38:48.719
that are as good, and you can argue even better
737
00:38:48.760 --> 00:38:51.679
than show Heotani as a positional player. But do you
738
00:38:51.840 --> 00:38:54.880
throw in the pitching on top of it. It's it's
739
00:38:55.039 --> 00:38:55.679
just insane.
740
00:38:56.840 --> 00:38:58.760
Yeah, it's yeah.
741
00:38:59.199 --> 00:39:03.400
Anytime he or anytime actually, anytime he's on the field,
742
00:39:03.440 --> 00:39:07.840
if the game's on the television, I'm watching it.
743
00:39:07.840 --> 00:39:09.000
It's as simple as that.
744
00:39:09.360 --> 00:39:13.840
He has got to be the most watched, popular, whatever
745
00:39:13.920 --> 00:39:16.000
you want to player in the game of baseball today.
746
00:39:16.320 --> 00:39:16.599
Yep.
747
00:39:17.000 --> 00:39:17.199
Yeah.
748
00:39:17.400 --> 00:39:19.559
And that's not to take anything away from Aaron Judge,
749
00:39:19.559 --> 00:39:24.400
who's a great player, but Otani is, Yeah, he's just
750
00:39:24.480 --> 00:39:25.559
a world all over his own.
751
00:39:26.159 --> 00:39:30.679
Judge is phenomenal, and it's just phenomenal. Okay, let's get
752
00:39:30.679 --> 00:39:34.039
to the division series. Just looking for your predictions. Let's
753
00:39:34.039 --> 00:39:36.400
start in the American League. The Blue Jays blew out
754
00:39:36.400 --> 00:39:38.960
the Yankees ten to one. They're up one to nothing.
755
00:39:40.039 --> 00:39:42.639
Tell me who wins the series and how many games.
756
00:39:44.199 --> 00:39:48.840
I'm gonna go with the Jays in five? Really, okay
757
00:39:49.559 --> 00:39:54.480
the Yankees. Yankees have a good team. The Jays if
758
00:39:54.480 --> 00:39:57.119
they're on their game, they don't make mistakes, the advanced runners,
759
00:39:57.159 --> 00:39:59.360
they get things done. They don't have the big names,
760
00:39:59.440 --> 00:40:04.719
but they're playing good, solid, fundamental baseball. And if we saw,
761
00:40:04.800 --> 00:40:07.679
if Game one is any indication of Glad he's heating up,
762
00:40:07.719 --> 00:40:10.280
that boats very very well for the Blue Jays. So
763
00:40:10.280 --> 00:40:12.480
I'm gonna I'm gonna go Blue Jays in five.
764
00:40:12.639 --> 00:40:19.519
And have Junior on your no big names. Uh raises
765
00:40:19.559 --> 00:40:21.960
his hand. I say, I disagree with mister Cloud. I'm
766
00:40:21.960 --> 00:40:22.679
a pretty big yu.
767
00:40:23.519 --> 00:40:24.000
Yeah he is.
768
00:40:24.199 --> 00:40:27.400
Yeah, Okay, other than other than Vlad Junior and the
769
00:40:27.480 --> 00:40:32.199
Springer who's having an amazing research crazy. Yeah, They've they've
770
00:40:32.239 --> 00:40:37.199
got a lot of solid players. Yeah, guys like Nathan
771
00:40:37.480 --> 00:40:43.280
Nathan Lucas. Okay, yeah, he's twenty nine year old rookie. Okay, Barger,
772
00:40:43.400 --> 00:40:45.599
there's a there's a lot of players in that lineup,
773
00:40:46.079 --> 00:40:48.599
im and is for the for the defense, kirk it
774
00:40:48.679 --> 00:40:52.079
two Omers the other day. Okay, they're they're getting it done.
775
00:40:52.119 --> 00:40:55.480
They're not making mistakes. But I did have to chuckle because,
776
00:40:56.639 --> 00:41:00.280
as always, Twitter exploded with all of the yank these
777
00:41:00.320 --> 00:41:04.000
three games sweep. Yeah yeah, you know, the typical trash
778
00:41:04.039 --> 00:41:07.159
talk and sort of left me smiling to see the
779
00:41:07.159 --> 00:41:11.239
Blue Jays humble some of them after that first game.
780
00:41:11.679 --> 00:41:14.480
Yeah. So I have one of the so one of
781
00:41:14.480 --> 00:41:18.480
our pastors at our church. She's just, i mean lives
782
00:41:18.519 --> 00:41:21.119
and dies by the Yankees. I mean watches every game,
783
00:41:21.159 --> 00:41:25.119
every inning of every game. She's just big time. So
784
00:41:25.559 --> 00:41:28.400
saw her this morning, I went like, sorry about the Yankees.
785
00:41:28.400 --> 00:41:31.639
They're done. She's just like, you know, I think a
786
00:41:31.679 --> 00:41:35.480
true Yankee fan are very concerned, and they're like, we're
787
00:41:35.480 --> 00:41:37.880
done because we got blown out. We're done.
788
00:41:38.239 --> 00:41:40.079
It's like, yeah, it's over.
789
00:41:40.400 --> 00:41:48.199
The So the Tigers and Mariners. The Tigers win in
790
00:41:48.280 --> 00:41:51.920
the eleventh any my buddy will Vescits will win. Come
791
00:41:51.960 --> 00:41:54.239
on with vest. I'm pulling for you. I need you,
792
00:41:54.760 --> 00:41:56.400
I need you to be to close her next season.
793
00:41:56.440 --> 00:42:00.480
For all my dinings do about three leagues backed him
794
00:42:00.480 --> 00:42:02.079
for six bucks in the XFL.
795
00:42:02.599 --> 00:42:04.840
Go well go, I'm not I'm not sure it's going
796
00:42:04.920 --> 00:42:07.920
to happen, but I got my fingers crossed for him.
797
00:42:08.400 --> 00:42:11.599
And and I mean, look, they got Kirby pitched well,
798
00:42:11.679 --> 00:42:14.920
but not well enough. They got Trega Savage going. I'm sorry,
799
00:42:15.000 --> 00:42:19.400
that's uh, Tiger's got Scooball going this evening. I mean,
800
00:42:19.440 --> 00:42:21.599
he gotta like the Tiger's position, right.
801
00:42:22.880 --> 00:42:23.760
Uh.
802
00:42:23.800 --> 00:42:27.320
Getting that first win was absolutely huge. And yeah, Kirby
803
00:42:27.320 --> 00:42:31.800
pitched well, but I didn't realize that the announcers brought
804
00:42:31.800 --> 00:42:34.800
this to everybody's attention. But you know, Carpenter with that big,
805
00:42:34.840 --> 00:42:38.639
massive home run. Apparently he's had a total of five
806
00:42:38.719 --> 00:42:41.960
hits against Kirby, Okay in his career. What you would
807
00:42:42.000 --> 00:42:44.480
say is probably no big deal, right, except all five
808
00:42:44.519 --> 00:42:45.199
are home runs.
809
00:42:46.880 --> 00:42:48.880
Maybe just maybe they should walk the guy.
810
00:42:49.639 --> 00:42:52.000
You know, who am I to tell a big league
811
00:42:52.000 --> 00:42:54.480
club how to handle the situation. But when a guy's
812
00:42:54.519 --> 00:42:57.440
got five hits and all of them are home runs, like,
813
00:42:57.960 --> 00:42:58.960
send him to first base?
814
00:42:59.000 --> 00:43:00.760
Okay, take them out of the right.
815
00:43:01.519 --> 00:43:05.679
So Tigers, Mariners, Yeah, Candy cap it out who wins
816
00:43:06.280 --> 00:43:07.119
and how many.
817
00:43:11.639 --> 00:43:13.159
I'm gonna go with the Tigers.
818
00:43:14.639 --> 00:43:17.639
I would if if the Tigers win tonight, it's They've
819
00:43:17.639 --> 00:43:20.840
got school Schooble. Everything is lined up, and I don't
820
00:43:20.880 --> 00:43:22.639
think the Tigers will lose three in a row. And
821
00:43:22.679 --> 00:43:25.920
I think they could bring Scooble back for the fifth game, yep,
822
00:43:26.719 --> 00:43:29.440
if it comes down to that. So I that first
823
00:43:29.480 --> 00:43:32.079
win was was huge.
824
00:43:32.199 --> 00:43:33.760
I'm gonna go with the Tigers.
825
00:43:35.039 --> 00:43:39.719
Tigers in three, four or five, five, five, Yeah, I
826
00:43:39.719 --> 00:43:43.880
wouldn't be surprised if it's over in three. Just if
827
00:43:43.920 --> 00:43:46.440
they went tonight, I mean, it's it's I mean the
828
00:43:46.440 --> 00:43:48.679
Mariners have got their backs against it.
829
00:43:49.679 --> 00:43:52.119
Yeah, it's it's a problem. Yes, definitely.
830
00:43:53.239 --> 00:43:55.360
The Brewers blew out the Cubs. I mean they were
831
00:43:55.440 --> 00:43:58.360
up nine to one after a leadoff home run by
832
00:43:58.599 --> 00:44:01.480
uh oh By Books hit a lead off on run
833
00:44:01.519 --> 00:44:04.079
and it was like, yeah, Freddy Peralta doesn't have it.
834
00:44:04.119 --> 00:44:07.000
And then he just settled down and the Brewers just
835
00:44:07.079 --> 00:44:10.360
destroyed Matthew Boyd who'd been so good all season long,
836
00:44:10.440 --> 00:44:13.079
and then he picked the wrong game to have an
837
00:44:13.079 --> 00:44:13.599
off game.
838
00:44:14.960 --> 00:44:20.159
Yeah, the Cubs should have avoided him in the playoffs. Yesterday. No,
839
00:44:20.320 --> 00:44:22.440
it wasn't a good It wasn't a good good outing
840
00:44:22.559 --> 00:44:25.840
by boy, and hey, the Brewers can play some pretty
841
00:44:25.840 --> 00:44:28.920
good baseball. I'm gonna go with the Brewers in four.
842
00:44:29.440 --> 00:44:33.519
Okay, and then finally the big I think it's the
843
00:44:33.559 --> 00:44:35.480
big one. This to me, this is this is the
844
00:44:35.519 --> 00:44:38.440
one you gotta watch. And that's the Dodgers and Phillies.
845
00:44:38.480 --> 00:44:41.679
I mean they probably, I mean you can argue it's
846
00:44:41.719 --> 00:44:44.639
the two best teams left in the playoffs and these
847
00:44:44.679 --> 00:44:49.559
are they's got name recognition, they've got superstars, big markets
848
00:44:50.039 --> 00:44:53.960
spent huge on their teams. And the Dodgers win five
849
00:44:54.000 --> 00:44:57.519
to three. It was a close game. Map this one out.
850
00:44:57.559 --> 00:44:58.800
Who wins and how many?
851
00:45:00.480 --> 00:45:01.360
Uh?
852
00:45:01.440 --> 00:45:04.679
The Dodgers in three and Sazaki ends up with at
853
00:45:04.800 --> 00:45:08.760
least one more save maybe two. Tanner Scott is probably
854
00:45:08.760 --> 00:45:11.119
not impressed. But Tanner Scott's getting when he deserved. He
855
00:45:11.119 --> 00:45:15.639
didn't pitch well this year. Sazaki right now is in
856
00:45:15.679 --> 00:45:19.280
a one inning role. He's looking really good. He made
857
00:45:19.320 --> 00:45:23.239
some changes to his mechanics. Apparently I was reading reading somewhere,
858
00:45:23.320 --> 00:45:28.719
and right now, right now, he is solving the Dodgers'
859
00:45:28.760 --> 00:45:33.800
bullpen problem. Man, the starting pitching is strong, So you know,
860
00:45:35.320 --> 00:45:36.519
I'm gonna go with the Dodgers.
861
00:45:36.519 --> 00:45:36.920
In three.
862
00:45:37.719 --> 00:45:38.400
It's fascinating.
863
00:45:38.400 --> 00:45:40.679
A close games, all close games, and.
864
00:45:40.719 --> 00:45:44.000
Three a sweep. It's amazing. I mean, the Dodgers, for
865
00:45:44.039 --> 00:45:47.559
as good as they've been over the last five eight years,
866
00:45:47.559 --> 00:45:50.079
I'm not sure exactly we can go back and figure
867
00:45:50.199 --> 00:45:53.199
when that happened. They still have had a lousy bullpen.
868
00:45:53.480 --> 00:45:56.360
They every time they get to the I say, every
869
00:45:56.360 --> 00:45:59.760
time they get to the playoffs, the bullpen falters. And
870
00:45:59.800 --> 00:46:03.599
if they put rookie Sasaki in there and he just performs,
871
00:46:03.760 --> 00:46:06.199
you have to ask the question, is he the closer
872
00:46:06.280 --> 00:46:09.079
coming into the season next year they got plenty of starters.
873
00:46:10.760 --> 00:46:13.039
Well, yeah, you know what was really interesting was Tyler
874
00:46:13.079 --> 00:46:14.760
Glasnow working in a setup roval.
875
00:46:14.960 --> 00:46:20.119
Yeah, and you know what that is perfect for Tyler
876
00:46:20.159 --> 00:46:24.239
Glasno pitch one two innings, shut him down and turn
877
00:46:24.320 --> 00:46:25.280
it over to Sazaki.
878
00:46:26.760 --> 00:46:29.000
There's your there's your bullpen in the future, at least
879
00:46:29.039 --> 00:46:30.440
it so so.
880
00:46:30.880 --> 00:46:33.519
The doctors can't find any bullpen arms, so they're turning
881
00:46:34.000 --> 00:46:37.119
all of their breadth of starters into bullpen arms, which
882
00:46:37.159 --> 00:46:38.280
is pretty fascinating.
883
00:46:39.440 --> 00:46:40.679
It's pretty fascinating.
884
00:46:40.719 --> 00:46:43.239
But I don't think Tyler Glasnow wants to be a reliever,
885
00:46:43.360 --> 00:46:45.519
and I don't think Sazaki wants to be one. But
886
00:46:45.800 --> 00:46:48.039
the interesting thing with Sazaki is they got him on
887
00:46:48.079 --> 00:46:49.320
a cheap deal, right.
888
00:46:50.079 --> 00:46:51.280
Because he came over early.
889
00:46:52.000 --> 00:46:55.800
He wants Yeah, so they have all the control over Sazaki.
890
00:46:55.920 --> 00:46:59.199
Six years of team controllings at league minimum. What's your
891
00:46:59.239 --> 00:47:01.960
next player? I mean he's going to be exactly what
892
00:47:02.000 --> 00:47:06.119
they tell him to do. So yeah, might might have
893
00:47:06.360 --> 00:47:07.960
a bit of an argument. He might be able to
894
00:47:07.960 --> 00:47:10.920
get some some veterans on his side and caused some noise.
895
00:47:10.960 --> 00:47:11.880
But Sosaki is not.
896
00:47:13.880 --> 00:47:14.119
Well.
897
00:47:14.159 --> 00:47:17.000
No, and the thing with Sazaki's I think it's a
898
00:47:17.119 --> 00:47:17.880
parent that.
899
00:47:17.880 --> 00:47:20.519
Health is a problem with Sasaki. Okay he.
900
00:47:20.760 --> 00:47:22.760
I think his big season in Japan was one hundred
901
00:47:22.800 --> 00:47:30.880
and ten innings. Okay ah, Sazaki might be he might
902
00:47:30.920 --> 00:47:34.320
have to resolve himself to facing the reality that in
903
00:47:34.400 --> 00:47:37.719
Major League Baseball he's going to be a relief pitcher. Now,
904
00:47:37.719 --> 00:47:40.360
I'm sure the Dodgers would love to have him starting,
905
00:47:41.079 --> 00:47:45.199
but they don't. Do they need one hundred innings out
906
00:47:45.199 --> 00:47:47.039
of them? No, they need one hundred and seventy five.
907
00:47:47.079 --> 00:47:49.400
If they can't get one hundred and seventy five, and
908
00:47:49.519 --> 00:47:51.800
I think I think Suzzaki, I think there's still an
909
00:47:51.800 --> 00:47:52.760
issue with that elbow.
910
00:47:53.360 --> 00:47:53.599
Okay.
911
00:47:53.679 --> 00:47:58.480
I think Sazaki if Sazaki can live one inning at
912
00:47:58.519 --> 00:48:02.719
a time, okay, and contribute more to the Dodgers than
913
00:48:02.760 --> 00:48:05.719
he can pitching half a year at five any five
914
00:48:05.760 --> 00:48:11.480
any outings. So if I was betting right now, I
915
00:48:11.519 --> 00:48:14.880
would draft Sazaki as a closer for next year.
916
00:48:15.199 --> 00:48:20.440
Yeah, very fascinating because people with early drafts and if again,
917
00:48:20.519 --> 00:48:23.079
if he if he turns into the closer and the
918
00:48:23.400 --> 00:48:27.559
uh in the postseason here, it's really gonna make it
919
00:48:27.639 --> 00:48:30.639
interesting going into next next year what role he's going
920
00:48:30.719 --> 00:48:33.280
to have, because you could definitely argue he could be
921
00:48:33.320 --> 00:48:33.840
a closer.
922
00:48:34.360 --> 00:48:37.559
M well, and hey, if you're if you're into it.
923
00:48:37.599 --> 00:48:41.159
The NFBC has already fired up twenty six drafts there
924
00:48:41.599 --> 00:48:46.119
there they're often nineteen, yet twenty twenty six drafts are
925
00:48:46.599 --> 00:48:48.840
now you can join an NFBC draft.
926
00:48:48.880 --> 00:48:51.320
Oh no, I thought you said twenty six drafts with
927
00:48:51.360 --> 00:48:53.400
twenty twenty six. I get it now, so.
928
00:48:53.760 --> 00:48:56.559
Yeah, yeah, sorry, ye had twenty twenty six. Yeah, I'm
929
00:48:56.679 --> 00:48:58.480
I'm going to go into an early one of the
930
00:48:58.599 --> 00:49:01.280
nfbc's but I'm gonna wait and see who's healthy at
931
00:49:01.320 --> 00:49:03.320
the end of the playoffs before I do anything.
932
00:49:03.679 --> 00:49:05.079
Totally, totally dense.
933
00:49:05.239 --> 00:49:08.320
So I'm going to do mine at uh January first,
934
00:49:08.360 --> 00:49:12.199
So that's that's when I bark and a big call
935
00:49:12.199 --> 00:49:15.480
out to one of our patren members, Greg, who wanted
936
00:49:15.519 --> 00:49:17.519
to meet with me in the last couple of days
937
00:49:17.559 --> 00:49:21.440
just to talk about trying to fire up some leagues
938
00:49:21.599 --> 00:49:25.280
postseason leagues through the NFC. I just wasn't able to
939
00:49:25.280 --> 00:49:27.079
get it together, just didn't have enough time. But we're
940
00:49:27.079 --> 00:49:28.760
going to try to do that next season. So I'm
941
00:49:28.760 --> 00:49:31.119
going to spend some time with Greg try to figure
942
00:49:31.119 --> 00:49:33.480
out how how it all works and maybe how we
943
00:49:33.519 --> 00:49:34.239
can do something.
944
00:49:34.920 --> 00:49:37.039
So that's why I ran one. I ran one for
945
00:49:37.079 --> 00:49:37.880
a number of years.
946
00:49:37.880 --> 00:49:39.920
Oh yeah you did, yep, yeah.
947
00:49:39.800 --> 00:49:43.559
Points points leagues and they're fair relatively easy just set up.
948
00:49:43.599 --> 00:49:47.400
But I by the time this season gets done with
949
00:49:47.440 --> 00:49:50.960
my work, I just found that it was too much
950
00:49:51.079 --> 00:49:51.920
rich for me.
951
00:49:52.039 --> 00:49:53.239
Anyways, I need that.
952
00:49:53.400 --> 00:49:57.239
I need that break and I you know, hey, I
953
00:49:57.320 --> 00:50:00.599
need that the ability to control my destiny for about
954
00:50:00.599 --> 00:50:02.679
a month. If I want to look at baseball, I can,
955
00:50:02.760 --> 00:50:04.960
if I want to watch something, but getting in a
956
00:50:05.000 --> 00:50:10.480
competitive league, no, it's no, it's too much for me.
957
00:50:10.760 --> 00:50:13.840
But they are they yeah, they're They're fun if you
958
00:50:13.960 --> 00:50:17.559
like tosson darts, because they're all set up so that
959
00:50:18.880 --> 00:50:21.119
you pick your teams and pick your players off your teams,
960
00:50:21.159 --> 00:50:21.760
and the way you go.
961
00:50:22.639 --> 00:50:24.280
It's me. It's take a break, come back, and let's
962
00:50:24.320 --> 00:50:26.320
draft the second second round? Shall we?
963
00:50:27.719 --> 00:50:28.000
Sure?
964
00:50:35.679 --> 00:50:42.119
Yea again? Just trying to get caught up with my tim.
965
00:50:42.199 --> 00:50:43.639
You might know this. You know what I did on
966
00:50:43.840 --> 00:50:44.880
Friday afternoon?
967
00:50:47.039 --> 00:50:49.639
Uh, Friday afternoon, you went and got a haircut?
968
00:50:50.159 --> 00:50:55.719
Nope, I went to the Taylor Swift launch album launch.
969
00:50:56.440 --> 00:50:58.239
So oh, I was gonna say, did they put her
970
00:50:58.280 --> 00:51:03.719
on one of Elon's vehicles?
971
00:51:03.559 --> 00:51:06.719
It was her? She has a new album. I'm not
972
00:51:06.760 --> 00:51:11.440
a Taylor Swift fan per se, but she you know,
973
00:51:11.639 --> 00:51:13.960
she was had her a movie come out. Basically, I
974
00:51:13.960 --> 00:51:17.039
think it was just Friday, maybe Friday and Saturday that
975
00:51:17.920 --> 00:51:20.400
she was at the AMC Theater in our town, which
976
00:51:20.559 --> 00:51:24.639
was a three minute walk from our apartments. So we
977
00:51:24.639 --> 00:51:27.920
we we booked three o'clock the first showing and it
978
00:51:28.000 --> 00:51:31.760
was great. It was She's phenomenal. I mean, I met
979
00:51:31.840 --> 00:51:34.840
a huge fan of her music. I'm a huge fan
980
00:51:34.920 --> 00:51:38.079
of her though. She just is an impressive young woman
981
00:51:38.159 --> 00:51:42.800
and great performer and just a great story. I just
982
00:51:42.840 --> 00:51:45.519
think it's she It was great. We had a blast.
983
00:51:45.599 --> 00:51:48.199
It was a lot of fun. We were the oldest
984
00:51:48.519 --> 00:51:51.920
people by a fair bit that we're there, but it
985
00:51:51.920 --> 00:51:55.800
was kids were screaming and it was it was fun, man,
986
00:51:55.880 --> 00:51:57.519
it was. It was a good way to spend an
987
00:51:57.519 --> 00:51:59.639
hour and a half on a Friday afternoon after the
988
00:51:59.679 --> 00:52:00.599
base off season.
989
00:52:01.880 --> 00:52:03.199
Yeah.
990
00:52:03.719 --> 00:52:07.239
I wouldn't have had that on my Bengo card rich No, definitely.
991
00:52:07.559 --> 00:52:11.440
Laurie was was posting about it on Facebook, so that's uh.
992
00:52:11.199 --> 00:52:13.440
She was the one that said We're going to the
993
00:52:14.039 --> 00:52:17.079
Taylor Swift launch party. I'm like, okay, is she gonna
994
00:52:17.119 --> 00:52:19.639
be there? No, she'll be on a movie movie screen.
995
00:52:19.679 --> 00:52:24.199
I'm like, okay, sounds like fun, so so off, off
996
00:52:24.280 --> 00:52:29.360
we go. Yes, all right, Timmy, we're ready to draft
997
00:52:29.559 --> 00:52:32.280
the second round. Let's just review very quickly the first
998
00:52:32.360 --> 00:52:35.679
round that we did last Sunday ten pick show. He
999
00:52:35.840 --> 00:52:39.199
Atani first Aaron Judge. I went with Aaron Judge. Then
1000
00:52:39.360 --> 00:52:43.760
Tim went with Wan Soto, Bobby Witt, Jose Ramirez, Jay Rod,
1001
00:52:44.199 --> 00:52:48.639
Li de la Cruz, Francisco, Lindor Corbyn, Carrol Trek Scuble.
1002
00:52:49.199 --> 00:52:52.440
I took a picture off the board, Tim went Fernando Tatist, Junior,
1003
00:52:52.519 --> 00:52:57.320
Kyle Schwarber, Gunner Henderson went with pick thirteen. I picked
1004
00:52:57.360 --> 00:53:00.840
Kyle Tucker, and then Tim went Paul Skiing, and then
1005
00:53:00.920 --> 00:53:05.719
Tim picked Junior Caminario as the first pick in the
1006
00:53:05.840 --> 00:53:07.960
second round. You're still good with that pick? I will
1007
00:53:08.039 --> 00:53:10.320
let you repick it if with desire.
1008
00:53:11.119 --> 00:53:13.880
Well, basically I sort of went out an order there.
1009
00:53:13.880 --> 00:53:16.559
It should really be your pick. Rich So if you
1010
00:53:16.639 --> 00:53:19.880
want to take pick sixteen and go with it, I'm
1011
00:53:19.920 --> 00:53:20.480
fine with it.
1012
00:53:20.480 --> 00:53:21.719
I'll pick them. I'll pick them seven.
1013
00:53:21.760 --> 00:53:24.480
Oh that's true. I didn't even think about that, all right.
1014
00:53:24.559 --> 00:53:27.519
Yeah, I screwed up the order there.
1015
00:53:27.519 --> 00:53:32.280
Eh, okay, Well, I mean, so we've got we've got
1016
00:53:32.280 --> 00:53:37.440
more pictures yamamotas out there, Hunter Brown, Garrett Crochet. Should
1017
00:53:37.480 --> 00:53:41.880
I go with another picture? I mean, Kyle riling his
1018
00:53:42.079 --> 00:53:46.159
gazillion home runs. Nick Kurtz is still on the board.
1019
00:53:46.280 --> 00:53:47.920
Is Jackson Churio on the board?
1020
00:53:49.840 --> 00:53:51.480
Jackson Curio is available.
1021
00:53:52.239 --> 00:53:55.159
I think I'm gonna go with the more balanced guy, Tim,
1022
00:53:55.719 --> 00:53:57.199
So I'm gonna go to Jackson Curio.
1023
00:54:00.119 --> 00:54:06.039
Plaints from me, I mean none whatsoever. He had health
1024
00:54:06.079 --> 00:54:10.039
issues this year, but it's a solid pick. You can't
1025
00:54:10.079 --> 00:54:12.559
go wrong. He's gonna go. He's gonna go in the
1026
00:54:12.599 --> 00:54:16.159
first twenty twenty picks, So pick your poison.
1027
00:54:17.000 --> 00:54:20.280
Yeah, I mean Junior Camenaro is a great pick in
1028
00:54:20.320 --> 00:54:22.559
a road based percentage league. I think Cheerio might be
1029
00:54:22.639 --> 00:54:26.639
the better pick, and obviously gonna get speed with Cheerio
1030
00:54:26.800 --> 00:54:30.559
not nearly as much power. And Cheerio did Nick up.
1031
00:54:30.599 --> 00:54:33.679
Apparently he came out of the game with a hamstring issue.
1032
00:54:33.719 --> 00:54:37.599
I think they think it was precautionary, but it's uh,
1033
00:54:37.719 --> 00:54:39.480
you know, so that's not good as well. So that
1034
00:54:39.599 --> 00:54:43.239
was that happened yesterday. But so Jackson Cheerio. So to Tim, now,
1035
00:54:43.280 --> 00:54:44.559
do you want Junior Cameron Aro?
1036
00:54:45.920 --> 00:54:51.159
Yeah, I'll take him. I I want that power. And
1037
00:54:51.239 --> 00:54:55.639
if you're if you're looking at yeah, you're you're You're
1038
00:54:55.679 --> 00:55:01.960
pairing Schemes and Cheerio and I'd be pairing Kyle Tucker
1039
00:55:02.039 --> 00:55:05.239
and Cam and Arrow and that works fine for me.
1040
00:55:06.079 --> 00:55:07.800
Yeah, that's that's that's quite good.
1041
00:55:09.119 --> 00:55:12.159
Yeah, there's one player that I that I might I
1042
00:55:12.639 --> 00:55:15.320
was thinking about subbing him in there, and you're going
1043
00:55:15.400 --> 00:55:18.119
to take him next anyways, or or I'll take him
1044
00:55:18.119 --> 00:55:24.079
to pick after But there's one player out there, Julio Rodriguez.
1045
00:55:24.719 --> 00:55:29.039
Oh he's already taken? Is he six?
1046
00:55:31.360 --> 00:55:32.159
Oh? Sorry?
1047
00:55:32.239 --> 00:55:35.800
Okay, yeah, I thought, okay, Well in that case, I
1048
00:55:35.840 --> 00:55:40.000
am perfectly fine with Cam and Arrow at seventeen and
1049
00:55:40.119 --> 00:55:46.840
I'm doing that backspace thing and voil, Jay Rhod's gone.
1050
00:55:47.360 --> 00:55:49.440
So I'm really curious as to where Nick Kurtz is
1051
00:55:49.480 --> 00:55:53.599
going with Kyle Riley is going. But I look, I
1052
00:55:54.000 --> 00:55:56.920
want to I think this coming here. I haven't completely
1053
00:55:56.960 --> 00:55:59.639
thought through my draft strategy. I think I want to
1054
00:55:59.679 --> 00:56:05.119
picture early and Skins and scooball are off the board.
1055
00:56:05.639 --> 00:56:09.719
I think that. I mean, I think you put Garrett
1056
00:56:09.719 --> 00:56:12.000
Crochet rot up with those other two guys. This guy
1057
00:56:12.119 --> 00:56:14.760
is good. The Red Sox are a good team. There
1058
00:56:14.840 --> 00:56:17.239
might be more wins than you see with Paul Skeins.
1059
00:56:17.400 --> 00:56:18.800
I'm going with Garrett Crochet.
1060
00:56:21.599 --> 00:56:24.239
I have no no compliance, no problems with that pick.
1061
00:56:24.320 --> 00:56:28.559
I think when you look at the top three, uh
1062
00:56:29.000 --> 00:56:32.400
he's number three. Yeah, And I don't think you can
1063
00:56:32.480 --> 00:56:34.480
you can. You can argue you can throw them at
1064
00:56:34.480 --> 00:56:37.880
two and move Skins down. But Skeens has been great, great.
1065
00:56:37.760 --> 00:56:40.239
Yeah, it's been very good too. I mean you can
1066
00:56:40.360 --> 00:56:43.519
get into there playing for the Dodgers, and you could
1067
00:56:43.519 --> 00:56:45.840
see a lot of winsor though he I don't think
1068
00:56:45.880 --> 00:56:48.039
he got as many starts as the other guys did.
1069
00:56:49.320 --> 00:56:55.159
Ah, yeah, Momoto, I think he got close to thirty. Well,
1070
00:56:55.480 --> 00:56:59.440
we'll see with my hyper fast speed computer.
1071
00:57:00.239 --> 00:57:02.840
Yeah, I'm a moto. How many starts thirty?
1072
00:57:03.679 --> 00:57:06.039
Oh wow, I stand stand corrected.
1073
00:57:07.480 --> 00:57:10.440
Yeah, one hundred and seventy three and two thirds two
1074
00:57:10.519 --> 00:57:14.199
forty nine point ninety nine. Way better than the strikeout
1075
00:57:14.239 --> 00:57:17.599
per inning. And the walks are still a little bit
1076
00:57:17.719 --> 00:57:21.400
high at fifty nine. But he was unheittable under thirteen
1077
00:57:21.440 --> 00:57:23.159
hits and one hundred and seventy three and the too
1078
00:57:23.400 --> 00:57:27.960
in two thirds whip was still under one, just barely. Yeah,
1079
00:57:28.280 --> 00:57:32.280
they're they're all good, as far as they're all good.
1080
00:57:32.039 --> 00:57:35.119
Picks first he'll be Yeah, I'm a motor. It'll be
1081
00:57:35.159 --> 00:57:35.719
by three or.
1082
00:57:35.719 --> 00:57:39.840
Four first three picks or Jackson Cherio Junior Caminero and
1083
00:57:39.960 --> 00:57:41.880
Garrett Cruschet timp is on the clock.
1084
00:57:44.360 --> 00:57:53.000
Oh this is this is a tough one, A tough
1085
00:57:53.039 --> 00:57:58.199
one for me, but I I gotta I gotta go
1086
00:57:59.159 --> 00:58:05.760
with the power speed combination of jazz CHISLM.
1087
00:58:05.880 --> 00:58:09.800
I don't like jazz Chisholm. Is that okay. Yeah, he's
1088
00:58:09.840 --> 00:58:14.599
a good baseball player. He's a good fantasy baseball player. Yeah,
1089
00:58:14.679 --> 00:58:16.039
I don't like Jazz Chislm.
1090
00:58:18.119 --> 00:58:21.159
Yeah, I get it.
1091
00:58:21.199 --> 00:58:26.360
But he was thirty thirty, thirty one, thirty one this year. Yeah,
1092
00:58:26.440 --> 00:58:30.039
it's you know, the DBPs at three thirty two betting
1093
00:58:30.039 --> 00:58:33.760
average a little bit low. But there's a lot of power,
1094
00:58:33.840 --> 00:58:34.880
there's a lot of speed.
1095
00:58:35.199 --> 00:58:38.440
And yeah, second.
1096
00:58:38.079 --> 00:58:39.199
Base too, by the way.
1097
00:58:39.280 --> 00:58:43.000
I mean that's yeah. I mean I get a problem.
1098
00:58:43.079 --> 00:58:47.119
Yeah, and I get any but you know, sometimes, Timmy,
1099
00:58:47.159 --> 00:58:49.320
when you don't like a player, you don't like a player.
1100
00:58:49.599 --> 00:58:53.119
I don't like his attitude, is you know the flair
1101
00:58:54.000 --> 00:58:54.440
I don't know.
1102
00:58:54.599 --> 00:58:59.400
Yeah, bugs, Yeah, I get, I get.
1103
00:59:00.559 --> 00:59:02.320
But it is a good pick. I mean I get
1104
00:59:02.320 --> 00:59:06.079
why he would go there early so I'm on the clock,
1105
00:59:06.159 --> 00:59:09.039
and you can argue, Tommy, this is a dumb pick.
1106
00:59:10.199 --> 00:59:12.960
He didn't run after coming back from injury as much,
1107
00:59:13.039 --> 00:59:14.559
at least I don't think he did. Let me check
1108
00:59:14.599 --> 00:59:20.719
how many stolen bases mister Ronald Acunya had Counya had.
1109
00:59:22.119 --> 00:59:25.280
Let's see with my hyper fast computer. Nine stolen bases,
1110
00:59:25.280 --> 00:59:28.400
twenty one home runs, two ninety batting average a four
1111
00:59:28.440 --> 00:59:32.440
to seventeen on base percentage of five and five. It
1112
00:59:32.480 --> 00:59:35.199
was ninety five games he played most of the season,
1113
00:59:36.000 --> 00:59:39.400
well over half the season. He throw another fifty games
1114
00:59:39.440 --> 00:59:42.760
in there. Fifty five games talking to thirty home run
1115
00:59:42.800 --> 00:59:45.960
guy with fifteen stolen bases in close to three hundred
1116
00:59:45.960 --> 00:59:48.800
batting average. I'm going to go Ronald Acuna here.
1117
00:59:49.679 --> 00:59:51.239
Yeah, a fine pick.
1118
00:59:52.159 --> 00:59:56.880
The question question with Cone is the same one we're
1119
00:59:56.880 --> 00:59:59.559
going to have every year until he retires, really stay healthy.
1120
01:00:01.199 --> 01:00:03.559
I have another question for you. Is he gonna run?
1121
01:00:06.039 --> 01:00:08.880
Yes, but not to the level, not.
1122
01:00:08.920 --> 01:00:10.320
The sad stolen basis.
1123
01:00:11.599 --> 01:00:11.920
No.
1124
01:00:12.159 --> 01:00:16.800
I think you're gonna see fifteen to twenty somewhere in
1125
01:00:16.840 --> 01:00:17.320
that range.
1126
01:00:18.159 --> 01:00:21.400
Does he become Michael Trout in three years where it's
1127
01:00:21.519 --> 01:00:24.599
all power, no stolen bases, and a guy that's just
1128
01:00:24.639 --> 01:00:25.559
trying to stay healthy.
1129
01:00:28.440 --> 01:00:30.719
I as much as I don't like to be the
1130
01:00:30.760 --> 01:00:34.639
negative guy in the room, I think the reality of
1131
01:00:34.679 --> 01:00:37.000
the situation is such a yeah, he could very well
1132
01:00:37.039 --> 01:00:40.920
be that player at some point in time. How many
1133
01:00:41.000 --> 01:00:42.280
knee operations has he had now?
1134
01:00:42.400 --> 01:00:44.480
Two? Three and serious ones?
1135
01:00:44.679 --> 01:00:48.239
At some point in time, I think the running, Yeah,
1136
01:00:48.320 --> 01:00:50.760
it's it's gonna cease.
1137
01:00:52.480 --> 01:00:55.000
I'm gonna hope it's it's not gonna cease next year.
1138
01:00:55.039 --> 01:00:57.440
I mean, I do think that it was forty one
1139
01:00:57.440 --> 01:01:00.960
home runs in twenty twenty three. He does hit the
1140
01:01:01.000 --> 01:01:04.639
ball very hard, so I think it's thirty is somewhat
1141
01:01:04.719 --> 01:01:06.400
in the in the books, I think he's going to
1142
01:01:06.480 --> 01:01:09.400
hit and maybe the maybe the speed is only twelve
1143
01:01:09.400 --> 01:01:11.360
to fifteen. I think I'm okay with that.
1144
01:01:13.159 --> 01:01:14.719
Yeah, I think that's fine.
1145
01:01:15.360 --> 01:01:17.719
There's lots of speed that's going to be available in
1146
01:01:17.800 --> 01:01:22.199
the in the middle and the team rounds okay, and
1147
01:01:23.679 --> 01:01:26.400
speed is not Hey, you're going to have to get it,
1148
01:01:26.440 --> 01:01:28.519
but you'll be able to find speed later on.
1149
01:01:29.840 --> 01:01:31.800
Okay, Timmy, you were on the clock, my friend.
1150
01:01:32.880 --> 01:01:34.639
Yeah, and this is an easy one for me.
1151
01:01:34.840 --> 01:01:37.679
I'm I'm going to I'm going to start a run
1152
01:01:37.719 --> 01:01:41.480
at a position I think here and I'm going at
1153
01:01:41.800 --> 01:01:42.920
the twenty first pick.
1154
01:01:43.000 --> 01:01:45.519
I'm going with Vlaive Junior.
1155
01:01:48.039 --> 01:01:52.039
Have Vlad Junior, Oh, flat Junior still on the board. Yes,
1156
01:01:54.960 --> 01:01:57.519
that's a great pick. Yeah, that's a lot of value.
1157
01:01:57.239 --> 01:02:03.559
There, handful of and you know, batting average o BP,
1158
01:02:04.159 --> 01:02:05.800
the power numbers will be solid.
1159
01:02:06.199 --> 01:02:07.679
Uh.
1160
01:02:07.760 --> 01:02:11.800
And the one thing I've discovered very early on Uh,
1161
01:02:12.400 --> 01:02:16.280
is that I want a first baseman in the first
1162
01:02:16.320 --> 01:02:21.119
three rounds, And I think there's plenty there that warrant
1163
01:02:21.159 --> 01:02:24.760
that that caliber of pick first base. Once you get
1164
01:02:24.800 --> 01:02:29.320
through the first seven, seven, eight, nine, somewhere in that range,
1165
01:02:30.159 --> 01:02:31.599
first base gets ugly quickly.
1166
01:02:33.519 --> 01:02:34.480
Let me ask you a question.
1167
01:02:35.519 --> 01:02:36.000
Mm hmmm.
1168
01:02:36.679 --> 01:02:39.280
Is the next first basement off the board Nick Kurtz?
1169
01:02:41.119 --> 01:02:48.039
Uh, it could be.
1170
01:02:48.480 --> 01:02:51.719
It's one of it's one of it's one of two. Uh.
1171
01:02:51.840 --> 01:02:53.599
You you want to you wanna go safe, you go
1172
01:02:53.679 --> 01:02:57.199
pee Alonzo. You want to go and speck a little bit,
1173
01:02:57.239 --> 01:02:59.280
You go with Nick Kurtz. But both of them are
1174
01:02:59.280 --> 01:03:00.559
gonna go in the secon A round.
1175
01:03:02.760 --> 01:03:07.320
Yeah. I mean, I'm wondering if the ceiling of Nick
1176
01:03:07.400 --> 01:03:08.800
Kurtz is Pete Alonzo.
1177
01:03:11.800 --> 01:03:19.280
Well again, when when you start looking at Alonzo, how
1178
01:03:19.280 --> 01:03:23.360
many fifty home run seasons does he have last year?
1179
01:03:25.559 --> 01:03:27.840
You know he's just got that first one, but he's
1180
01:03:27.880 --> 01:03:31.559
also got a thirty seven on forty to forty six
1181
01:03:31.840 --> 01:03:33.920
and a thirty eight last year. Go with one hundred
1182
01:03:33.920 --> 01:03:40.280
and twenty six RBIs. If I was picking, I would
1183
01:03:40.360 --> 01:03:44.599
go Alonso and then Kurtz. I get the high I
1184
01:03:44.639 --> 01:03:48.159
get the I get the high end potential. But I
1185
01:03:48.159 --> 01:03:53.079
think Alonzo has really established a solid floor and I
1186
01:03:53.119 --> 01:03:56.760
don't think that's changing. So I would probably play it
1187
01:03:56.840 --> 01:03:59.440
safe and go with Alonso. But if you duck Kertz,
1188
01:03:59.400 --> 01:04:01.280
I wouldn't argue. I think it's I think it's a
1189
01:04:01.280 --> 01:04:07.320
fun pick. And he could hit fifty home runs.
1190
01:04:05.280 --> 01:04:08.239
But so could Plan and Kurts is twenty two Pete
1191
01:04:08.239 --> 01:04:11.320
Alonzo could also hit fifty home runs. Look, I'm looking
1192
01:04:11.360 --> 01:04:15.199
at baseball, so the ark page, the average velocity is
1193
01:04:15.519 --> 01:04:18.559
heart hit rates are off the chart, it's batspeed off
1194
01:04:18.599 --> 01:04:21.920
the chart, ninety eight percentile. This guy's going to hit
1195
01:04:21.960 --> 01:04:24.920
a lot of home runs. Launch angle at fifteen degrees.
1196
01:04:24.960 --> 01:04:27.840
That's plenty of juice for a guy to hit thirty
1197
01:04:27.880 --> 01:04:30.480
to forty home runs. He also struck out thirty one
1198
01:04:30.519 --> 01:04:34.800
percent of the time, So I'm looking at his expected
1199
01:04:34.840 --> 01:04:38.800
batting average of two fifty five. I think that's probably more.
1200
01:04:38.880 --> 01:04:41.639
The player is a two forty to two sixty batting
1201
01:04:41.679 --> 01:04:45.440
average guy with forty to fifty home runs, a lot
1202
01:04:45.440 --> 01:04:50.039
of RBIs and you know, a decent one base percentage,
1203
01:04:50.039 --> 01:04:53.079
a good enough on base percentage. But I'm but I'm
1204
01:04:53.079 --> 01:04:57.800
wondering if that's Peet Alonzo with less risk.
1205
01:05:00.119 --> 01:05:02.239
Uh, well, I don't know.
1206
01:05:02.320 --> 01:05:05.360
When I look at Alonzo and I see his walks
1207
01:05:05.400 --> 01:05:08.960
starting back to twenty nineteen, seventy two, sixty sixty seven,
1208
01:05:09.079 --> 01:05:14.519
sixty five, seventy sixty one, career three thirty three will
1209
01:05:14.519 --> 01:05:17.079
be p career two forty three.
1210
01:05:17.199 --> 01:05:18.920
I I would just play that.
1211
01:05:19.079 --> 01:05:22.079
I would play the safer of the two being a second,
1212
01:05:22.880 --> 01:05:27.239
you're gonna have to draft Kurts Alonzo, right, yeah, Alonzo, Yeah,
1213
01:05:27.239 --> 01:05:27.920
that's what I was saying.
1214
01:05:28.079 --> 01:05:30.480
I think I probably misunderstood me because I didn't say
1215
01:05:30.480 --> 01:05:35.280
it correctly. That it feels like, yeah, that Kurts could
1216
01:05:35.280 --> 01:05:39.719
be Pete Alonzo's career. But isn't Pete Alonzo already Pete
1217
01:05:39.719 --> 01:05:42.639
Alonzo And he's not a shit be in a position
1218
01:05:43.199 --> 01:05:45.039
when he's starting a massive decline.
1219
01:05:45.079 --> 01:05:45.360
Yet.
1220
01:05:46.760 --> 01:05:50.480
Well, if you look at in full season, okay, his
1221
01:05:50.719 --> 01:05:55.599
two lowest home run years are thirty four and thirty seven, okay,
1222
01:05:55.639 --> 01:05:58.400
then followed by a thirty eight to forty, a forty six,
1223
01:05:58.440 --> 01:06:01.079
and a fifty three. I think if you're looking at
1224
01:06:01.119 --> 01:06:04.440
safe floors, I think Pete Alonso at thirty five homers,
1225
01:06:04.440 --> 01:06:10.079
one hundred RBIs and two fifty batting average three forty OVP.
1226
01:06:10.719 --> 01:06:14.960
Yeah you pencil it in there, Okay with Kurts, Yeah,
1227
01:06:15.000 --> 01:06:17.840
everything worked out perfect this year. Everything was great, and
1228
01:06:17.880 --> 01:06:21.000
he could hit fifty home runs. He could hit fifty
1229
01:06:21.039 --> 01:06:25.920
home runs next year. But what happened is if not
1230
01:06:26.000 --> 01:06:29.480
that I'm a believer in superstition, but sophomore slumps.
1231
01:06:29.119 --> 01:06:31.679
Do happen on occasion, right they do?
1232
01:06:31.800 --> 01:06:32.159
Indeed?
1233
01:06:32.239 --> 01:06:37.800
Yeah, yeah, Kurtz's history is much more limited and much
1234
01:06:37.840 --> 01:06:40.480
more riskier. I would say that Pete Alonzo, so I
1235
01:06:40.480 --> 01:06:43.519
would take Alonso first, but if you took Kurtz, I'd say, hey,
1236
01:06:43.519 --> 01:06:46.440
good for you, you can have I'm watching the kid, all.
1237
01:06:46.480 --> 01:06:48.800
Right, Timmy, I'm on the clock. Boy. We get a
1238
01:06:48.840 --> 01:06:50.800
lot of direction with you. The Yamamoto is still on
1239
01:06:50.840 --> 01:06:53.599
the board. Hunter Brown is still on the board. From
1240
01:06:53.599 --> 01:06:57.360
a pitching standpoint, there are guys. I still like Mookie
1241
01:06:57.400 --> 01:06:59.800
Bets is still on the board. It's still Mookie Bets.
1242
01:06:59.800 --> 01:07:03.639
But man, that that sting of last year is still
1243
01:07:03.960 --> 01:07:07.639
still hurts. I mean I could go a little early
1244
01:07:07.679 --> 01:07:10.079
with a James would I mean, he was great in
1245
01:07:10.119 --> 01:07:12.280
the first half of the season, not so good in
1246
01:07:12.320 --> 01:07:13.639
the second half of the season.
1247
01:07:15.119 --> 01:07:15.920
I think I'm.
1248
01:07:15.800 --> 01:07:18.519
Going to go with Yamamoto. I think I'm gonna go
1249
01:07:18.519 --> 01:07:21.360
another picture. I just I just think pitching is going
1250
01:07:21.440 --> 01:07:25.599
to be out of state this coming season, that you
1251
01:07:25.639 --> 01:07:28.000
need to get a guy early. So I'm going Yamamoto.
1252
01:07:29.159 --> 01:07:32.039
Yeah, it's a good pick. He's one of the he's
1253
01:07:32.079 --> 01:07:35.440
one of the best pitchers in the game. I wouldn't
1254
01:07:35.480 --> 01:07:37.920
be shocked if there's a Cy Young in his future.
1255
01:07:38.599 --> 01:07:42.679
That that curveball that he throws off his thumb okay
1256
01:07:43.119 --> 01:07:45.320
uh they call it, they called the yo Yo curban.
1257
01:07:45.719 --> 01:07:49.760
That thing is virtually it's unheadable, and he's got the veloscity.
1258
01:07:50.039 --> 01:07:54.400
He's smart. Yeah, he's He's a very very good picture.
1259
01:07:54.440 --> 01:07:58.719
I have no problems at all with Yama Moto as
1260
01:07:58.760 --> 01:08:00.320
a number four pitcher of board.
1261
01:08:00.559 --> 01:08:02.719
Done it all, Tody, It's like a break, come back
1262
01:08:02.800 --> 01:08:04.800
and finish up this second round. This is fun.
1263
01:08:05.800 --> 01:08:06.480
Yeah, it is.
1264
01:08:17.000 --> 01:08:19.079
So got a lot of pictures that we could take
1265
01:08:19.119 --> 01:08:22.720
off the board. George Spener had a fabulous years on
1266
01:08:22.760 --> 01:08:26.000
the board. Zach Nido, young kid that's making a lot
1267
01:08:26.039 --> 01:08:30.159
of noises there again. Mookie Betts is still there again.
1268
01:08:30.279 --> 01:08:32.920
James Wood that I mentioned before. We're in Pete Alonzo
1269
01:08:33.039 --> 01:08:36.600
PCA is still on the board. Timmy, you're on the clock.
1270
01:08:36.680 --> 01:08:37.399
Where are you going?
1271
01:08:38.479 --> 01:08:41.439
Well, after our lengthy discussion, you know where I'm going.
1272
01:08:41.520 --> 01:08:43.239
Pet Alonzo, I'm going I'm gonna.
1273
01:08:43.000 --> 01:08:47.800
Take that floor of thirty five thirty six home runs
1274
01:08:47.800 --> 01:08:51.359
in one hundred hundred and ten RBIs and be very
1275
01:08:51.359 --> 01:08:52.039
happy with it.
1276
01:08:54.399 --> 01:08:55.960
Look, I mean, I'm not sure we need to talk
1277
01:08:55.960 --> 01:08:59.359
about much work as we spent all the time as
1278
01:08:59.439 --> 01:09:03.680
much as I can. Like Nick Kurtz, I mean, it's hard.
1279
01:09:03.960 --> 01:09:06.920
It's it's hard to bett on the com of Nick
1280
01:09:07.039 --> 01:09:11.199
Kurtz when Pete Alonso should do what he's been doing
1281
01:09:11.239 --> 01:09:14.399
over the last few years, which is probably what Nick
1282
01:09:14.479 --> 01:09:16.560
Kurtz hopefully can't become. You know what I mean.
1283
01:09:17.039 --> 01:09:20.640
It's like, yeah, yeah, you're going with the kid.
1284
01:09:21.439 --> 01:09:25.560
You're betting on Kurtz becoming a little bit better per
1285
01:09:25.600 --> 01:09:29.600
se maybe than Alonso at his best. But Alonzo at
1286
01:09:29.600 --> 01:09:32.920
his best is a mid to high forties home run
1287
01:09:33.039 --> 01:09:37.159
hundred and twenty RBI guy. That's not a bet that
1288
01:09:37.279 --> 01:09:39.800
I think I would advise people.
1289
01:09:40.000 --> 01:09:41.239
I would go with the safe play.
1290
01:09:42.359 --> 01:09:44.920
Yeah, that's yeah. I mean, you could say, well, he
1291
01:09:44.960 --> 01:09:48.199
could be better, but I mean Alonzo thirty eight home
1292
01:09:48.279 --> 01:09:52.000
runs one hundred and twenty six. RBIs last season played
1293
01:09:52.000 --> 01:09:54.760
one hundred and sixty two games. Twenty twenty four, he
1294
01:09:54.800 --> 01:09:57.840
played one hundred and sixty two games. I mean, it
1295
01:09:57.880 --> 01:10:01.000
doesn't strike out nearly as much as Kurtz does as well.
1296
01:10:01.079 --> 01:10:07.199
So I don't know, Well, you know what, if Kurts
1297
01:10:07.279 --> 01:10:08.920
is better, how much better is he going to be?
1298
01:10:09.479 --> 01:10:09.640
Now?
1299
01:10:09.920 --> 01:10:12.039
Is it worth paying the price to take that chance?
1300
01:10:12.399 --> 01:10:12.600
Yeah?
1301
01:10:12.840 --> 01:10:15.600
Or is it better to take safe, the safe, safe
1302
01:10:15.680 --> 01:10:16.039
way out?
1303
01:10:16.680 --> 01:10:21.079
Now? The contrarian view is Peter Alonzo will be thirty one.
1304
01:10:21.199 --> 01:10:24.680
Let me look back, he'll be thirty one in December.
1305
01:10:25.159 --> 01:10:29.279
That's an old player, particularly a guy who's six foot
1306
01:10:29.399 --> 01:10:32.159
three and two hundred and forty five pounds, which that's
1307
01:10:32.199 --> 01:10:34.199
what is base on our reference card, says that that's
1308
01:10:34.199 --> 01:10:37.239
probably generous. He's probably more so you can argue he
1309
01:10:37.479 --> 01:10:40.720
potentially could have a fall off, but if it's a
1310
01:10:40.760 --> 01:10:42.720
fall off, it's probably thirty five home runs.
1311
01:10:43.560 --> 01:10:47.159
So yeah, he falls off to thirty one hundred.
1312
01:10:47.880 --> 01:10:52.880
Yeah, Okay, that's that's not going to cost you a league.
1313
01:10:53.119 --> 01:10:57.680
Yep. I'm going to go on the calm here, Tim,
1314
01:10:58.279 --> 01:11:01.039
This could be a huge mistake. Definitely. Don An on
1315
01:11:01.159 --> 01:11:03.840
base percentage league. I feel a little bit better. And
1316
01:11:04.600 --> 01:11:07.039
I mean James Wood was awfully good. And I'm looking
1317
01:11:07.039 --> 01:11:11.079
at his Baseball Reference average, ex velocity ninety eighth percentile,
1318
01:11:11.119 --> 01:11:15.680
heart hit rates ninety eight percentile, bats bey ninety fifth percentile. Yeah,
1319
01:11:15.680 --> 01:11:18.720
he strikes out too much. He has six foot seven,
1320
01:11:18.800 --> 01:11:21.159
so there's going to be swinging missing his game. It's
1321
01:11:21.199 --> 01:11:24.119
probably a fifteen stolen base guy. He's not I mean
1322
01:11:24.279 --> 01:11:27.520
sixty one percentile. So he's fast. He's not a burner,
1323
01:11:28.000 --> 01:11:30.640
but I think I think thirty fifteen is in the
1324
01:11:30.720 --> 01:11:35.640
bag and it could be some pressure on his batting average,
1325
01:11:35.640 --> 01:11:38.279
But I think that's a really good player as my
1326
01:11:38.359 --> 01:11:41.039
number one outfielder. So I'm gonna I'm gonna go James Wood.
1327
01:11:42.279 --> 01:11:45.520
Yeah, he's you know, the second half was not kind
1328
01:11:45.600 --> 01:11:50.239
to him, but he's still a very good player. He's
1329
01:11:50.359 --> 01:11:53.159
very young, Like you said, he's a big kid with
1330
01:11:53.199 --> 01:11:56.920
a big Wings fan. That's that's always going to be
1331
01:11:56.960 --> 01:11:59.720
some sort of a there's always going to be a challenge.
1332
01:11:59.800 --> 01:12:04.119
But I I like James Wood a lot. I have
1333
01:12:04.319 --> 01:12:07.479
no problem. He's going to go definitely in the second round,
1334
01:12:07.720 --> 01:12:09.880
and you could, hey, you could, you could go as
1335
01:12:09.960 --> 01:12:17.399
high as yeah, the turn or you know, or push
1336
01:12:17.439 --> 01:12:19.960
him down a little bit. But either he's a second
1337
01:12:20.039 --> 01:12:22.079
round pick mind and.
1338
01:12:22.159 --> 01:12:27.760
He is what twenty two, yeah, twenty three, twenty three,
1339
01:12:27.800 --> 01:12:30.560
so he's still abate Okay, So okay, Timmy, you're on
1340
01:12:30.600 --> 01:12:30.960
the cock.
1341
01:12:32.560 --> 01:12:35.920
Okay, Well, I'm going to take care of home runs
1342
01:12:36.000 --> 01:12:37.920
here by.
1343
01:12:37.920 --> 01:12:40.600
Position Peter Alonso and somebody else.
1344
01:12:40.680 --> 01:12:43.920
Yeah yeah, cal relly.
1345
01:12:44.479 --> 01:12:46.279
Oh yeah, Okay. I was wondering when he was going
1346
01:12:46.359 --> 01:12:46.560
to go.
1347
01:12:47.680 --> 01:12:50.960
Yeah, and to catcher leagues if you know, I is
1348
01:12:50.960 --> 01:12:55.119
he going to hit sixty again? Probably not, but at
1349
01:12:55.159 --> 01:12:59.880
the same point in time he needs to do. Yeah,
1350
01:13:00.119 --> 01:13:03.439
I believe he had sixty. I'll call it up and
1351
01:13:03.479 --> 01:13:09.479
see what. See what the numbers. If I'm not mistaken,
1352
01:13:09.520 --> 01:13:18.479
I think he had set the Mariner sixty yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
1353
01:13:18.880 --> 01:13:22.319
You know what, next year he's gonna he's gonna probably
1354
01:13:22.439 --> 01:13:25.039
be the cal Riley that we've come to know him.
1355
01:13:25.600 --> 01:13:26.119
Uh love.
1356
01:13:26.399 --> 01:13:29.399
So in twenty twenty four he had thirty four homers
1357
01:13:29.399 --> 01:13:34.199
and drove in a hundred. Okay, well, if he does
1358
01:13:34.239 --> 01:13:39.560
that again next year, that gives you, with the swing
1359
01:13:39.680 --> 01:13:44.079
of one cal rarely that that basically in two catcher leagues.
1360
01:13:44.560 --> 01:13:47.279
Uh you don't need a whole lot to have the
1361
01:13:47.319 --> 01:13:51.359
best pair of catchers, do you. I'll take that edge City.
1362
01:13:51.439 --> 01:13:54.399
I think he's gonna add forty home runs and drive
1363
01:13:54.439 --> 01:13:57.439
in probably a hundred with a handful of stolen bases
1364
01:13:57.479 --> 01:14:02.079
and in OBP leagues. Yeah, three forty to three sixty
1365
01:14:02.159 --> 01:14:06.039
somewhere in that range. Yeah, he's Yeah, those that drafted
1366
01:14:06.119 --> 01:14:08.880
Kel rarely this year probably are in the money in
1367
01:14:08.960 --> 01:14:11.319
every league, barring injuries.
1368
01:14:11.479 --> 01:14:15.880
So and looking at his Baseball Savant page, it's pretty
1369
01:14:15.880 --> 01:14:19.279
clear what's going on here. Most of us. He's a
1370
01:14:19.279 --> 01:14:22.600
switch hitter. Most of his power is literally down the line.
1371
01:14:23.239 --> 01:14:24.960
Why is it down the line on both the right
1372
01:14:24.960 --> 01:14:27.760
and left side because he has a twenty five degree
1373
01:14:27.920 --> 01:14:31.439
launching I've ever seen this before. Hey, that is interesting.
1374
01:14:32.039 --> 01:14:35.920
That's incredibly steep, and he goes, well, gee, how's his
1375
01:14:36.039 --> 01:14:39.840
exit velossit? It's really good. So not only does he
1376
01:14:39.920 --> 01:14:44.279
hit the ball hard, he's launching everything, stepping in the bunch,
1377
01:14:44.800 --> 01:14:47.119
stepping in the bucket, and just hitting the ball as
1378
01:14:47.199 --> 01:14:50.039
far as he's as far as he possibly can. So
1379
01:14:50.279 --> 01:14:52.079
is it gonna be another sixty horme run season? It
1380
01:14:52.119 --> 01:14:55.199
could be because he did increase his launch angle, but
1381
01:14:55.520 --> 01:14:57.399
I don't think you can pencil that in. But it
1382
01:14:57.439 --> 01:15:00.359
would seem like forty would be a chip shot. But
1383
01:15:00.439 --> 01:15:02.199
it's going to come with pressure in his batting average.
1384
01:15:02.199 --> 01:15:03.760
I mean he strikes out way too much.
1385
01:15:03.960 --> 01:15:09.479
Yeah, yeah he does. But I'll take that edge of catcher.
1386
01:15:09.640 --> 01:15:12.279
I think as we get towards the back of the
1387
01:15:12.359 --> 01:15:15.560
first sorry, the back of the second round.
1388
01:15:16.399 --> 01:15:19.439
You know who's going to make my I don't know
1389
01:15:19.560 --> 01:15:21.119
this for a fact, but because I haven't done my
1390
01:15:21.199 --> 01:15:23.800
targets a catcher, I think, and who's going to make
1391
01:15:23.840 --> 01:15:27.880
my targets though, and that's going to be William Contreras.
1392
01:15:29.079 --> 01:15:33.000
I think that guy. That guy hits the ball really hard.
1393
01:15:33.199 --> 01:15:36.239
I think he was injured this year and he's going
1394
01:15:36.319 --> 01:15:39.520
to be a kid that falls, but I mean unfortunate,
1395
01:15:39.560 --> 01:15:41.720
probably not going to fall too far. But if he
1396
01:15:41.840 --> 01:15:45.159
does fall, he'll be a guy that really really interests
1397
01:15:45.239 --> 01:15:48.760
me because I think I think there's thirty forty hord
1398
01:15:48.840 --> 01:15:51.479
runs there. I think he's going to hit. It's a
1399
01:15:51.520 --> 01:15:52.640
good baseball player.
1400
01:15:53.960 --> 01:15:55.960
Totally agree. I'm sitting. I'm sitting.
1401
01:15:56.600 --> 01:15:59.399
I'm sitting in my one league, okay, where I have
1402
01:15:59.560 --> 01:16:01.920
William in tress and I have to I have to
1403
01:16:02.000 --> 01:16:06.479
put my keepers in in two weeks, and I can
1404
01:16:06.600 --> 01:16:09.039
have him next year at twenty one. And I'm thinking
1405
01:16:09.119 --> 01:16:13.119
I might just be heading in that direction. I probably
1406
01:16:13.239 --> 01:16:15.520
don't have a whole lot to gain at twenty one
1407
01:16:16.800 --> 01:16:19.279
on the dollar end of things, but I think we're
1408
01:16:19.359 --> 01:16:25.359
looking at low twenties at the worst. With eighty to
1409
01:16:25.479 --> 01:16:28.039
ninety RBIs a ninety to one hundred runs scored.
1410
01:16:29.000 --> 01:16:30.680
I think he's going to be a top three catcher
1411
01:16:30.800 --> 01:16:31.199
next year.
1412
01:16:31.680 --> 01:16:38.319
No, yeah, with with juice, so yeah, all right, So
1413
01:16:38.479 --> 01:16:39.600
I'm on the clock, Timmy.
1414
01:16:39.680 --> 01:16:40.039
I I.
1415
01:16:41.720 --> 01:16:44.159
Keep looking at Mookie Betts. I don't know if I can.
1416
01:16:44.239 --> 01:16:46.119
I don't know if I can go there, tim his
1417
01:16:46.640 --> 01:16:49.680
the speed is gone thirty six percentile, So he sold
1418
01:16:49.760 --> 01:16:54.479
eight bases this year? Does he do twelve? Maybe? I'm looking, well,
1419
01:16:54.600 --> 01:16:56.920
is that average exit velocity? And I'm seeing a thirty
1420
01:16:56.920 --> 01:17:01.920
eighth percentile with a eighty nine one mom our exit velocity.
1421
01:17:02.960 --> 01:17:06.319
I'm not I think he's probably a twenty home run
1422
01:17:06.439 --> 01:17:11.520
hitter with a twelve to fourteen stolen base guy. And
1423
01:17:11.600 --> 01:17:13.439
then the question is how much is he gonna hit?
1424
01:17:13.840 --> 01:17:16.079
That's always a bit of a walker. He's got a
1425
01:17:16.159 --> 01:17:19.279
great hit, so he walks a ton doesn't Chase doesn't
1426
01:17:19.279 --> 01:17:22.640
strike out, hits at the top of the lineup, so
1427
01:17:22.680 --> 01:17:24.600
there's gonna be a lot of runs scored. Obviously plays
1428
01:17:24.640 --> 01:17:27.199
with the Dodgers, but he is thirty three next season.
1429
01:17:27.920 --> 01:17:29.199
I don't know if I can go there.
1430
01:17:31.439 --> 01:17:33.359
Well, you said that we were going to do the
1431
01:17:33.439 --> 01:17:38.239
second round today and maybe take a look at a
1432
01:17:38.319 --> 01:17:39.800
little bit into the third round.
1433
01:17:40.359 --> 01:17:40.880
Maybe do that.
1434
01:17:40.920 --> 01:17:43.640
I don't have I don't have him on my list.
1435
01:17:44.439 --> 01:17:50.239
Yeah, I'm no, I there are you know, I've there
1436
01:17:50.279 --> 01:17:54.199
are other players that I like more right now than
1437
01:17:54.279 --> 01:17:59.720
Mookie Betts. And yeah, he's for me to end up
1438
01:17:59.760 --> 01:18:02.560
with Wokie, he's gonna have to be towards the middle
1439
01:18:02.640 --> 01:18:03.840
back of the third round.
1440
01:18:04.760 --> 01:18:06.359
He won't be a second round pick for me.
1441
01:18:06.960 --> 01:18:09.439
That's that's what I'm thinking. I just keep looking at
1442
01:18:09.520 --> 01:18:11.880
it and keep going. I I just don't know if
1443
01:18:11.920 --> 01:18:13.880
I if I could do that, I think because you know,
1444
01:18:14.239 --> 01:18:16.159
I don't know is the outfield eligible anymore? Is it
1445
01:18:16.279 --> 01:18:16.920
just shortstop?
1446
01:18:18.800 --> 01:18:21.680
I would have to look that up. I think he
1447
01:18:21.840 --> 01:18:24.359
probably snuck both and I will tell you in a
1448
01:18:24.439 --> 01:18:24.800
couple of.
1449
01:18:25.079 --> 01:18:27.239
Because that gives him, that gives him a little bit
1450
01:18:27.319 --> 01:18:31.479
more juice. If he's so outfield eligible, yeah, let me
1451
01:18:31.800 --> 01:18:34.960
just take that up. Let's take a quick break. Look,
1452
01:18:35.039 --> 01:18:37.800
we get back, we'll finish this puppy apple chee an
1453
01:18:37.800 --> 01:18:40.600
hour and eighteen minutes. So I'm gonna finish this up.
1454
01:18:40.640 --> 01:18:41.119
Get out of here.
1455
01:18:42.680 --> 01:18:51.399
Okay, works for me, all right?
1456
01:18:51.439 --> 01:18:53.520
I mean how many is he outfield eligible?
1457
01:18:55.239 --> 01:19:00.319
Uh? Oh, he might not be.
1458
01:19:00.479 --> 01:19:08.439
Let me just betsy, I don't I don't think he is,
1459
01:19:08.720 --> 01:19:12.159
but I'm gonna just double check twenty I'm using a
1460
01:19:12.199 --> 01:19:14.439
twenty game qualifier.
1461
01:19:14.520 --> 01:19:16.439
His name didn't come come up.
1462
01:19:16.479 --> 01:19:22.560
And shortstop oo, Mookie Betts is only shortstop eligible?
1463
01:19:23.039 --> 01:19:24.680
Yeah, shortstop one hundred forty.
1464
01:19:26.600 --> 01:19:26.800
Yeah.
1465
01:19:28.239 --> 01:19:30.560
Yeah, it's all on It's all on fan tracks, by
1466
01:19:30.600 --> 01:19:32.479
the way. You can see it there. And he turns
1467
01:19:32.520 --> 01:19:37.800
thirty three and two days. So it's a hard it's
1468
01:19:37.840 --> 01:19:39.399
a hard pass for me in the second round.
1469
01:19:40.800 --> 01:19:44.119
It's a total pass for me in the second round. Yeah, yep,
1470
01:19:44.960 --> 01:19:45.279
all right.
1471
01:19:46.079 --> 01:19:46.159
Uh.
1472
01:19:46.479 --> 01:19:48.920
Now the question is do I go. Do I go
1473
01:19:49.039 --> 01:19:52.000
with another picture, or do I go somebody like Trey Turner,
1474
01:19:52.079 --> 01:19:54.560
who is also starting to get long in the tooth
1475
01:19:55.239 --> 01:19:58.279
and you know so that that worries me. Or do
1476
01:19:58.399 --> 01:20:01.840
I go with a Hunter around, who was phenomenal this season,
1477
01:20:02.199 --> 01:20:03.880
and I think I'm going to go there again. I
1478
01:20:04.000 --> 01:20:07.239
just think there's a lot of pitching here, high end
1479
01:20:07.279 --> 01:20:09.119
pitching that we need to think about. So I'm going
1480
01:20:09.199 --> 01:20:10.000
to go Hunter Brown.
1481
01:20:11.560 --> 01:20:14.399
Great pick. It was one of one of my next
1482
01:20:14.880 --> 01:20:17.760
next two picks. Good.
1483
01:20:17.920 --> 01:20:19.960
I feel really smart than if if you were going
1484
01:20:20.000 --> 01:20:21.319
to pick them, then I'm all in.
1485
01:20:22.640 --> 01:20:23.760
Yeah, No, it's.
1486
01:20:25.079 --> 01:20:25.279
Yeah.
1487
01:20:25.319 --> 01:20:28.520
I was mulling over two guys for my next pick,
1488
01:20:28.640 --> 01:20:31.760
and you made it very easy for me by taking
1489
01:20:32.319 --> 01:20:35.600
by taking Brown at twenty six, Okay, so you're.
1490
01:20:37.880 --> 01:20:39.960
Okay. Freddie Perolta at twenty seven.
1491
01:20:40.920 --> 01:20:44.640
Wow, okay, obviously one of the bet Is he a
1492
01:20:44.720 --> 01:20:50.439
free agent this year or coming into the next next season, I.
1493
01:20:50.640 --> 01:20:56.920
Don't believe so. In a second Freddy par Alta contract,
1494
01:20:58.479 --> 01:21:04.680
I should just keep spow track up. He signed a
1495
01:21:04.760 --> 01:21:05.399
five year.
1496
01:21:06.920 --> 01:21:09.159
There's one that worked out for the Brewers, a five year,
1497
01:21:09.239 --> 01:21:11.000
fifteen million dollar contract.
1498
01:21:12.640 --> 01:21:12.880
Wow.
1499
01:21:13.800 --> 01:21:20.880
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I would I would think that five year,
1500
01:21:20.960 --> 01:21:24.239
fifteen point five Yeah. He's in his option year club
1501
01:21:24.279 --> 01:21:26.479
option at eight million. What do you think of the Brewers?
1502
01:21:26.520 --> 01:21:28.960
And Brewer is gonna take a chance at eight million.
1503
01:21:29.039 --> 01:21:31.119
I'm ready for all the next year, then he's into
1504
01:21:31.159 --> 01:21:31.760
free agency.
1505
01:21:32.800 --> 01:21:34.680
All right, Well, I'm on the clock, and again there's
1506
01:21:34.760 --> 01:21:37.920
some interesting guys here. Trey Turner sill on the board.
1507
01:21:38.039 --> 01:21:39.640
I don't know. I might go zach Nito in front
1508
01:21:39.680 --> 01:21:41.640
of Jay in front of Trey Turner. I mean, I
1509
01:21:41.640 --> 01:21:44.079
don't know what this guy's got to do. Speed and power.
1510
01:21:44.119 --> 01:21:46.399
Seems like every year. I mean, do I do I
1511
01:21:46.520 --> 01:21:50.720
venture back into the Jordan Alvarez. I don't know if
1512
01:21:50.720 --> 01:21:53.600
I can do that again. Manny Machata was really good.
1513
01:21:53.680 --> 01:21:56.479
Bryce Harper was really good, and then he got Pete
1514
01:21:56.960 --> 01:22:00.600
Pete Crow Armstrong that you know, you can argue, there's
1515
01:22:01.119 --> 01:22:04.039
there's a lot there. Just looking at it.
1516
01:22:04.319 --> 01:22:10.239
K we haven't mentioned Bryce Harper, Yeah, Bryce k Harper, Kurtson.
1517
01:22:10.319 --> 01:22:14.840
I mean, look it sounds like got down on Kurtz,
1518
01:22:14.920 --> 01:22:18.279
but I'm not. But I'm just taking look at Harper.
1519
01:22:18.359 --> 01:22:24.479
How many stolen bases did he have? Well, yeah, twelve
1520
01:22:24.520 --> 01:22:26.920
stolen bases and he was injured a bit. Again, it's
1521
01:22:27.000 --> 01:22:29.880
thirty three years old next week, So another guy that
1522
01:22:30.000 --> 01:22:32.840
started to get but twenty seven twelve with a two
1523
01:22:32.920 --> 01:22:35.279
sixty one batting average and a three fifty seven on
1524
01:22:35.439 --> 01:22:38.479
base percentage. He still played in one hundred and thirty
1525
01:22:38.520 --> 01:22:42.159
two games. He was banged up a little bit seventy five.
1526
01:22:42.840 --> 01:22:47.359
How many stolen How many stolen bases did Josh Naylor have?
1527
01:22:48.880 --> 01:22:49.279
I don't know.
1528
01:22:52.840 --> 01:22:54.159
Yeah, you're you're you.
1529
01:22:54.399 --> 01:22:58.560
Probably it's a big number. I remember just talking about thirty.
1530
01:23:01.840 --> 01:23:02.159
Thirty.
1531
01:23:04.199 --> 01:23:06.039
Josh Naylor had thirty stolen bases.
1532
01:23:06.960 --> 01:23:10.520
Yes, he was a twenty thirty guy this year.
1533
01:23:11.920 --> 01:23:16.520
Wow, that's crazy. Let's yet there's something wrong. I mean,
1534
01:23:16.560 --> 01:23:18.600
come on, Josh Naylor. Because we've looked at this, I'm
1535
01:23:18.600 --> 01:23:21.520
gonna look at it again. If I recall Josh Naylor
1536
01:23:21.640 --> 01:23:24.359
is in the two percentile, that's two, that's the number
1537
01:23:24.399 --> 01:23:27.840
between one and three of sprint speeds. Timmy, How in
1538
01:23:27.880 --> 01:23:29.600
the world is he stealing thirty bases?
1539
01:23:31.840 --> 01:23:35.239
My answer to that would be talk to Rob Madford
1540
01:23:35.359 --> 01:23:38.039
and see if he's made in each fundamental changes to
1541
01:23:38.199 --> 01:23:40.640
the game at the past couple of years that have
1542
01:23:40.760 --> 01:23:42.680
affected the stolen based category.
1543
01:23:42.960 --> 01:23:46.560
See yes, stolen basis, Timmy. In twenty twenty four, there
1544
01:23:46.640 --> 01:23:50.399
is absolutely no way that you can go into a
1545
01:23:50.520 --> 01:23:53.479
draft next season thinking that he's going to steal twenty
1546
01:23:53.560 --> 01:23:55.520
five plus basis. You can't do that.
1547
01:23:56.680 --> 01:23:59.359
You can, but the answer to that question is you
1548
01:23:59.399 --> 01:24:02.159
will also probably spend time in rehab next year.
1549
01:24:02.279 --> 01:24:06.399
Okay, this looks like a total outlier.
1550
01:24:06.439 --> 01:24:09.199
I mean he could buy oh yeah, huge.
1551
01:24:09.439 --> 01:24:12.119
He could do it again. I just I'm not gonna
1552
01:24:12.119 --> 01:24:14.000
I'm not gonna do that. I think, you know, let's
1553
01:24:14.119 --> 01:24:18.039
call me crazy. I might go Zach Needo here, Okay,
1554
01:24:18.960 --> 01:24:22.680
twenty six runs, twenty six stolen bases after twenty three
1555
01:24:22.760 --> 01:24:25.720
home runs and thirty stolen bases. Yeah, there's a bit
1556
01:24:26.119 --> 01:24:29.800
too much strikeout in his game, but it's speed and power,
1557
01:24:29.880 --> 01:24:33.239
and I'll get batting overge somewhere else. I'm going Zach Needo.
1558
01:24:34.520 --> 01:24:39.920
Okay, at twenty eight is Zach Needo? Fine? Pick power? Speed? Uh,
1559
01:24:41.319 --> 01:24:42.560
I'm gonna play. I'm gonna.
1560
01:24:42.560 --> 01:24:45.319
I'm sorry. I forgot the rite. I took Connor Brown?
1561
01:24:45.319 --> 01:24:46.079
Who did you take?
1562
01:24:47.800 --> 01:24:50.720
Oh? Hunter Brown went? Where did I did that?
1563
01:24:50.840 --> 01:24:51.560
I took him?
1564
01:24:51.600 --> 01:24:54.520
And then you took who twenty six? I took Baralta,
1565
01:24:54.960 --> 01:24:57.760
Oh right, you took Yeah, you took Nto.
1566
01:24:59.520 --> 01:25:02.439
Okay, just getting it for the notes of tim. And
1567
01:25:02.479 --> 01:25:04.680
then I got Zach Nido. I know who I picked.
1568
01:25:04.960 --> 01:25:08.800
I can't remember you picked? And then uh, fourteen so
1569
01:25:08.880 --> 01:25:10.760
we've got the last two picks here in the second round.
1570
01:25:11.920 --> 01:25:15.600
Yeah, and I'm I'm going with another first basement. I've I.
1571
01:25:17.800 --> 01:25:20.680
Think you're going to see five six first basement off
1572
01:25:20.760 --> 01:25:23.359
the board after the first two rounds. I think they're
1573
01:25:23.399 --> 01:25:26.119
gonna go early. And I'm sitting there. I had the
1574
01:25:26.239 --> 01:25:28.319
number I had the number two pick, and I got
1575
01:25:28.399 --> 01:25:31.359
Aaron Judge and I'm gonna pair him up with Nick
1576
01:25:31.439 --> 01:25:33.199
Kurtz and bed on one hundred home runs.
1577
01:25:33.199 --> 01:25:33.520
So was that?
1578
01:25:35.199 --> 01:25:40.760
That's fascinating? Wow? So you have you don't have enough
1579
01:25:40.800 --> 01:25:42.840
stolen bases though, so you'd have to come back in
1580
01:25:42.920 --> 01:25:43.680
the third round.
1581
01:25:44.560 --> 01:25:45.039
Mm hmmm.
1582
01:25:45.479 --> 01:25:48.199
So that would be the second pick in the third round.
1583
01:25:48.359 --> 01:25:50.560
So where are you gonna How are you gonna get
1584
01:25:50.560 --> 01:25:52.439
the stolen bases? Let's figure out Tim's gonna get the
1585
01:25:52.439 --> 01:25:56.279
stolen bases. So on the boards they have Jarender Ran
1586
01:25:59.399 --> 01:26:01.199
Picrow Armstrong is where you're gonna go?
1587
01:26:01.359 --> 01:26:05.119
Right, Well, Bete Crow Armstrong isn't there. I'll go with
1588
01:26:05.600 --> 01:26:06.600
Grandi Rosarina.
1589
01:26:10.199 --> 01:26:11.720
Mm hmm. That's possible too.
1590
01:26:13.239 --> 01:26:17.840
Yeah, But I I think when you look at.
1591
01:26:20.159 --> 01:26:22.800
But you're now, you're gonna be waiting, You're gonna be
1592
01:26:22.880 --> 01:26:26.159
waiting for your fourth pick to get a picture. That
1593
01:26:26.279 --> 01:26:28.279
means a lot of a lot of the big pictures
1594
01:26:28.279 --> 01:26:29.279
are going to be off the board.
1595
01:26:30.439 --> 01:26:35.399
Yes, and then I'll I'll probably go with a run
1596
01:26:35.479 --> 01:26:41.760
of three or four pictures in a row. Yeah, Yeah,
1597
01:26:42.199 --> 01:26:44.600
and try and feast on the on the midyear.
1598
01:26:47.000 --> 01:26:47.199
Yeah.
1599
01:26:47.479 --> 01:26:50.359
I don't know if I'm gonna pair Nick Kurtz with
1600
01:26:50.439 --> 01:26:53.800
Aaron Judge. I don't know that really. I mean, yeah,
1601
01:26:53.840 --> 01:26:56.279
you get tremendous power there, and you get some stolen
1602
01:26:56.319 --> 01:26:59.399
bases with Judge, and and you were you're worried about
1603
01:26:59.439 --> 01:27:01.880
first base clearly right right.
1604
01:27:03.760 --> 01:27:06.800
I got an outfielder, I got a first baseman and.
1605
01:27:11.439 --> 01:27:12.359
Another outfielder.
1606
01:27:13.359 --> 01:27:17.199
Yeah, potentially another outfielder or a corner corner infielder. The
1607
01:27:17.279 --> 01:27:20.279
other guy that's on my list high that I think
1608
01:27:20.319 --> 01:27:22.119
we'll go by the middle of the third round. And
1609
01:27:22.199 --> 01:27:24.159
I might even move him up because I like Vinnie
1610
01:27:24.159 --> 01:27:28.840
Pasqua Tito a Pile, I really do. And I think
1611
01:27:28.920 --> 01:27:31.880
he did this year what we expected to do in
1612
01:27:31.960 --> 01:27:35.279
twenty twenty four before missing that final month of the season.
1613
01:27:35.920 --> 01:27:38.119
But I think Vinny p is a thirty one hundred
1614
01:27:38.159 --> 01:27:41.760
bat again, it's going to be off the board by
1615
01:27:41.800 --> 01:27:47.960
the third round. You know you think so, yeah, I do.
1616
01:27:48.479 --> 01:27:51.560
What was his batting average though, uh?
1617
01:27:52.159 --> 01:27:52.760
What was it?
1618
01:27:54.159 --> 01:27:58.880
Okay, guaranteed I'll only see one game come up with
1619
01:27:59.119 --> 01:28:03.880
pas u a. Uh his betting average was two sixty
1620
01:28:03.920 --> 01:28:07.960
four okay, structor one hundred and seven times, it's not
1621
01:28:09.039 --> 01:28:10.119
that's not outrageous.
1622
01:28:10.720 --> 01:28:12.239
He'll be vie with three twenty three.
1623
01:28:13.960 --> 01:28:17.359
Well, I'm a huge Yeah, I'm right there with you.
1624
01:28:18.239 --> 01:28:21.319
So I've got to give that as a good call.
1625
01:28:21.479 --> 01:28:24.720
I I don't know, maybe I'm miss contrary and I
1626
01:28:24.800 --> 01:28:26.680
do love Nick Kurtz. I just don't know if I
1627
01:28:26.720 --> 01:28:28.960
can take him that early that.
1628
01:28:29.119 --> 01:28:33.199
Really Yeah, I think you the one that I have seen.
1629
01:28:33.359 --> 01:28:37.880
The one draft i've seen Andrew mcquests doing an NFBC
1630
01:28:38.119 --> 01:28:41.600
type draft. He's in one already, and Kurts went at
1631
01:28:41.640 --> 01:28:43.920
the beginning of the second round. The heeling going to
1632
01:28:44.039 --> 01:28:49.159
drive Kurtz. Yeah, yeah, he'll be gone by I think
1633
01:28:49.239 --> 01:28:51.800
in most drafts, especially early, when he'll be gone in
1634
01:28:51.840 --> 01:28:53.000
the middle of the second round.
1635
01:28:54.439 --> 01:28:58.840
Okay, I'm going to finish this up with a boring Kirtell.
1636
01:28:59.000 --> 01:29:02.960
Okay, yeah, he's on my list.
1637
01:29:03.439 --> 01:29:06.800
He's boring, but he's good. Yeah, And I you know,
1638
01:29:06.880 --> 01:29:09.720
a little bit injured this season. He was the number
1639
01:29:09.720 --> 01:29:11.479
one pick, a little bit on the old side, right,
1640
01:29:11.600 --> 01:29:15.520
so he is now over thirty. So but I think
1641
01:29:15.560 --> 01:29:17.479
that's a really safe pick, so that.
1642
01:29:17.640 --> 01:29:19.520
When you look at the second when you look at
1643
01:29:19.560 --> 01:29:25.479
second bes, yeah, he's he's top three and a solid player.
1644
01:29:25.560 --> 01:29:28.960
You're pairing him up with either Otani or Judge and
1645
01:29:29.399 --> 01:29:30.720
probably a pitcher.
1646
01:29:31.279 --> 01:29:33.399
Yeah, you're off to a fine start. Lots of power,
1647
01:29:33.520 --> 01:29:34.239
lots of speed.
1648
01:29:34.680 --> 01:29:41.119
Yeah, So Jackson, Cherio Junior, caman Ero, Garrett Crochet, chisom
1649
01:29:41.199 --> 01:29:45.920
Ronald Acuna, Flag Junior, Yamamoto, Pete Alonzo, number ninth in
1650
01:29:46.039 --> 01:29:49.720
the second round, James would cow Riley, Hunter Brown twelfth
1651
01:29:49.880 --> 01:29:54.199
in the second round, Freddy Peralta, Zach Nito, Nick Kurtz,
1652
01:29:54.319 --> 01:29:58.680
and Katel Marte. Maybe we'll do the third round next week, Tim.
1653
01:30:00.119 --> 01:30:03.760
Yeah, I'd be sort of interested because I have a
1654
01:30:03.800 --> 01:30:06.840
feeling we'll see three or four closers go off the board.
1655
01:30:08.319 --> 01:30:10.640
In that third round. Yeah.
1656
01:30:11.319 --> 01:30:13.079
Good, all right to me, it's take a final break
1657
01:30:13.119 --> 01:30:30.119
it back and now you tell me that was a
1658
01:30:30.199 --> 01:30:30.680
lot of fun.
1659
01:30:31.960 --> 01:30:39.840
Yeah, definitely created some great fodder for for discussion.
1660
01:30:40.119 --> 01:30:43.239
Uh, it's it's just gonna be you know, it's so early,
1661
01:30:43.520 --> 01:30:49.000
but the one trend that I definitely see happened happening
1662
01:30:49.199 --> 01:30:51.399
is I think if you don't get the first basement
1663
01:30:51.479 --> 01:30:56.039
in the first first three, four, we're gonna with the results. Uh,
1664
01:30:56.479 --> 01:31:01.880
they're gonna go quick. And and I don't I don't
1665
01:31:01.920 --> 01:31:05.479
really want a mediocre player at first base next year.
1666
01:31:06.479 --> 01:31:11.359
That's I just don't want it. Okay, So we'll see what,
1667
01:31:12.399 --> 01:31:14.560
We'll see how it all shakes down.
1668
01:31:14.640 --> 01:31:15.479
But I know for me.
1669
01:31:17.319 --> 01:31:19.960
It's gonna be important that I get a first baseman,
1670
01:31:20.479 --> 01:31:23.800
get one of the one hundred RBI types. You're not
1671
01:31:23.920 --> 01:31:26.880
gonna make those RBIs up later on in the draft,
1672
01:31:27.359 --> 01:31:29.880
and you're certainly not gonna make them up at first base.
1673
01:31:30.039 --> 01:31:33.840
So that's the one thing that I that I've noticed.
1674
01:31:33.880 --> 01:31:36.560
I Hey, I know, starting pitching is gonna go off
1675
01:31:36.600 --> 01:31:39.720
the board fair fairly early, but I still think there's
1676
01:31:39.760 --> 01:31:41.119
hay to be made in the mid rounds.
1677
01:31:41.319 --> 01:31:43.000
That's my early assessment. Anyways.
1678
01:31:44.600 --> 01:31:47.439
I haven't looked at it closely yet, but first base
1679
01:31:47.479 --> 01:31:50.359
has always been problematic. The last couple of years. I
1680
01:31:50.479 --> 01:31:54.119
have gone VITP and pretty much both both. Uh, you know,
1681
01:31:54.199 --> 01:31:57.000
my redraft leaks and but I think vinp might be
1682
01:31:57.079 --> 01:31:59.119
getting too expensive. Everybody's called on to them.
1683
01:32:00.640 --> 01:32:04.159
Well, I, like I said, I I see him going
1684
01:32:04.239 --> 01:32:07.720
in the third round. Just uh, just a heads up, uh,
1685
01:32:08.680 --> 01:32:13.000
Trey you savage. This afternoon, three innings pitched, one walk,
1686
01:32:13.399 --> 01:32:18.600
seven strikeouts, Max Freed two and two thirds, six hits,
1687
01:32:18.760 --> 01:32:21.920
one walk, one strikeout, and four and runs. Jays are
1688
01:32:22.000 --> 01:32:25.880
up four nothing and the third with a runner on.
1689
01:32:26.000 --> 01:32:31.920
Second tim This this is crazy, this this young pitching man.
1690
01:32:32.159 --> 01:32:34.119
I know I keep dwelling on it, but this is
1691
01:32:35.079 --> 01:32:37.479
it's almost unprecedented. This is crazy.
1692
01:32:39.319 --> 01:32:39.840
Yeah, it is.
1693
01:32:40.000 --> 01:32:42.920
I I was with Freed on the hill today. I
1694
01:32:44.399 --> 01:32:48.560
I honestly thought the Yankees would tie the series at one. Uh,
1695
01:32:49.079 --> 01:32:52.680
not to demeanor say anything, native you savage. He's been
1696
01:32:52.720 --> 01:32:55.560
pitching brilliantly, but Max Reid is one of the best pitchers.
1697
01:32:55.199 --> 01:32:55.600
In the game.
1698
01:32:56.199 --> 01:32:56.720
Yeah, and.
1699
01:32:58.279 --> 01:33:02.560
Yeah, he's he's struck. And guess guess who hit the
1700
01:33:02.640 --> 01:33:05.880
Jay's home run? Ernie Clement.
1701
01:33:08.399 --> 01:33:11.439
That's funny and one of my prospect profiles. I can't
1702
01:33:11.520 --> 01:33:13.239
remember who it was. I said, he's kind of an
1703
01:33:13.359 --> 01:33:16.920
Ernie Clement player, Like, wow, there is there's such a
1704
01:33:17.039 --> 01:33:19.399
thing as an Ernie Clement guy out there.
1705
01:33:19.600 --> 01:33:24.000
Yeah, uh, it's now five nothing.
1706
01:33:24.880 --> 01:33:29.119
Yeah, yeah, Ernie, Ernie Clement just drove his third run
1707
01:33:29.239 --> 01:33:31.880
into the game to go along with the offensive Juggernauts
1708
01:33:31.960 --> 01:33:35.479
know as known as Kirk and Marshall.
1709
01:33:35.920 --> 01:33:38.000
That's their offense. Uh wow.
1710
01:33:38.640 --> 01:33:43.039
For me, I I think it's disappointing. Yankee fan should
1711
01:33:43.039 --> 01:33:45.960
be disappointed and Max free, But I don't think Traya
1712
01:33:46.039 --> 01:33:49.000
Savage is This is not a fluke. This guy has
1713
01:33:49.079 --> 01:33:52.000
got great stuff. It's a he's a good pitcher.
1714
01:33:53.239 --> 01:33:56.119
Well, and you know what's amazing is the fact that, yeah,
1715
01:33:56.159 --> 01:33:58.000
when you looked at the beginning of the season, he
1716
01:33:58.119 --> 01:33:59.840
started off what in low way?
1717
01:34:00.279 --> 01:34:01.399
Yeah for an ebol.
1718
01:34:01.319 --> 01:34:04.800
Here four levels, that's right, that's right, that's right.
1719
01:34:05.399 --> 01:34:10.119
Yeah, that's crazy. That wouldn't happen ten years ago with
1720
01:34:10.239 --> 01:34:12.840
it rich No, but we're not allowed.
1721
01:34:13.560 --> 01:34:15.720
The game's changing, but it's it's changing.
1722
01:34:15.800 --> 01:34:20.119
But what's really weird is typically you'd get a guy
1723
01:34:20.399 --> 01:34:22.640
that would get promoted to the big leagues of pitcher
1724
01:34:23.279 --> 01:34:24.640
and it would take him a year or two to
1725
01:34:24.680 --> 01:34:28.319
get established. Uh, and then it just seems like Paul
1726
01:34:28.359 --> 01:34:31.319
Skeins kind of came up and shoved it. And it's
1727
01:34:31.359 --> 01:34:33.399
just one guy after the next is coming up and
1728
01:34:33.520 --> 01:34:36.920
shoving it. It's it's really exciting but weird at the
1729
01:34:36.960 --> 01:34:37.520
same time.
1730
01:34:38.680 --> 01:34:41.000
Well, yeah, and you know, I think part of it
1731
01:34:41.359 --> 01:34:43.720
is that some of the teams are finally really.
1732
01:34:45.439 --> 01:34:47.159
Okay that.
1733
01:34:48.640 --> 01:34:50.960
The arm only has so many bullets, right, and and
1734
01:34:51.239 --> 01:34:54.880
then it has a tendency. Yeah, so if a player
1735
01:34:55.079 --> 01:34:58.199
is pitching, well, why are you spending your time wasting
1736
01:34:58.279 --> 01:35:01.840
those bullets at double A and triple If a pitcher
1737
01:35:01.960 --> 01:35:04.520
is pitching lights out, get him up to the bigs
1738
01:35:04.640 --> 01:35:07.079
right away, see what he can do, and if he
1739
01:35:07.159 --> 01:35:10.560
can handle it, utilize you.
1740
01:35:10.640 --> 01:35:11.960
Don't utilize it just.
1741
01:35:11.960 --> 01:35:15.520
Because somebody didn't pitch it triple A doesn't mean that
1742
01:35:15.600 --> 01:35:18.399
he can't be successful in the bigs. And with these
1743
01:35:18.479 --> 01:35:22.279
young pitchers, rather than going through the high aid double A,
1744
01:35:22.479 --> 01:35:26.119
triple A, fifteen starts at each if somebody's on a roll,
1745
01:35:26.560 --> 01:35:29.000
they're realizing, let's take advantage of this.
1746
01:35:31.039 --> 01:35:31.319
Games.
1747
01:35:31.520 --> 01:35:34.600
We call that the Tampa Bay Rays developmental strategy a
1748
01:35:34.760 --> 01:35:37.920
year at a time. But look, I mean, I'm thinking
1749
01:35:37.920 --> 01:35:40.840
about the Yankees with Cam Schlitzler probably going to pitch
1750
01:35:40.920 --> 01:35:44.920
tomorrow's game. They got ear C and Carlo's lagarannge a man.
1751
01:35:45.119 --> 01:35:47.920
I mean those are big arms too that you're going
1752
01:35:47.960 --> 01:35:50.600
to see in next year. You know, you you got
1753
01:35:50.720 --> 01:35:53.560
to be pretty excited if you're a Yankees fan of
1754
01:35:53.680 --> 01:35:56.000
this pitching staff and they're gonna get Garrett cole back.
1755
01:35:56.039 --> 01:35:58.039
I mean, they're going to be throwing guys out there.
1756
01:35:59.039 --> 01:36:01.159
That five guys that are going to be they have
1757
01:36:01.239 --> 01:36:03.079
a chance to throw out five guys that are all
1758
01:36:03.119 --> 01:36:07.199
throwing ninety eight miles an hour plus. That's going to
1759
01:36:07.279 --> 01:36:07.760
be nasty.
1760
01:36:08.680 --> 01:36:15.199
Yeah, it's going to be very nasty. And uh again, Yeah,
1761
01:36:15.319 --> 01:36:19.840
it's there. There's a right future happening. The Yankees will
1762
01:36:19.880 --> 01:36:23.760
always be a strong team. Okay, there's there's no doubt
1763
01:36:23.800 --> 01:36:28.600
in my mind. But man, right now that are Jays
1764
01:36:28.640 --> 01:36:32.319
are looking awful strong as well with their Vladdie and
1765
01:36:33.880 --> 01:36:36.000
stellar defense offense plan.
1766
01:36:36.159 --> 01:36:39.520
Yeah, I mean and his his his buddies. I mean
1767
01:36:39.560 --> 01:36:42.399
it's it's you know, and and Boba Chet is still
1768
01:36:42.439 --> 01:36:44.359
on the injured list right so he's not even playing.
1769
01:36:45.279 --> 01:36:46.279
He's no, he's not.
1770
01:36:47.239 --> 01:36:50.560
You know, I I have a feeling we won't we
1771
01:36:50.640 --> 01:36:52.439
won't see him play another game in Toronto.
1772
01:36:52.560 --> 01:36:53.520
That's my gut feeling.
1773
01:36:53.840 --> 01:36:55.159
I really don't think he's coming back.
1774
01:36:56.119 --> 01:36:59.520
No, I don't think it. Maybe for the World Series.
1775
01:37:00.000 --> 01:37:01.319
Doesn't sound positive though.
1776
01:37:02.720 --> 01:37:06.600
Right now with the way that Jays are playing, you know,
1777
01:37:07.800 --> 01:37:13.479
im and at shortstop is great defensively, Okay, so if
1778
01:37:13.520 --> 01:37:17.640
they can get the offense out of guys like bar
1779
01:37:17.760 --> 01:37:22.279
Show and Clement and Barger and Kirk.
1780
01:37:22.359 --> 01:37:25.520
Crazy and these are these are these are you know,
1781
01:37:25.760 --> 01:37:30.039
kind of career journey man. I mean you just all
1782
01:37:30.079 --> 01:37:32.279
those guys you just mentioned, these are not stars.
1783
01:37:33.560 --> 01:37:36.159
Well in their lineup to they got Schneider and their
1784
01:37:36.199 --> 01:37:37.279
Barger isn't even playing.
1785
01:37:38.239 --> 01:37:38.520
Okay.
1786
01:37:39.079 --> 01:37:44.840
I guess who's starting at second base for the Jays today. Nope,
1787
01:37:45.479 --> 01:37:49.840
close Isaiah, Isaiah Kaider, Phil Alpha, there you go.
1788
01:37:50.119 --> 01:37:53.960
There you go. I shut my browser down because things
1789
01:37:54.000 --> 01:37:56.439
are slowing down and they want to screw up our recording.
1790
01:37:56.600 --> 01:37:59.960
So you know, you know what, we're way over time.
1791
01:38:00.000 --> 01:38:02.399
I'm here, guys. I think we brought it today. You
1792
01:38:02.479 --> 01:38:03.880
got the second round. I think Tim and I are
1793
01:38:03.880 --> 01:38:06.720
going to do the third round next week. It's been
1794
01:38:06.800 --> 01:38:11.960
fun and yeah, talk about that and just carry on, Tim,
1795
01:38:11.960 --> 01:38:14.760
we have more playoff stuff to talk about. Maybe we'll
1796
01:38:14.760 --> 01:38:17.159
talk about some of the awards coming out in postseason
1797
01:38:17.239 --> 01:38:21.119
that's going to come out soon. It's lots of stuff
1798
01:38:21.119 --> 01:38:22.800
to talk about. It's Tim's right, we got to start
1799
01:38:22.880 --> 01:38:23.960
prepping for next season.
1800
01:38:25.319 --> 01:38:28.119
Yeah, the end of one season is simply the beginning
1801
01:38:28.199 --> 01:38:28.720
of the next.
1802
01:38:29.000 --> 01:38:30.760
And the earlier you get.
1803
01:38:30.680 --> 01:38:33.720
On it, the more comfortable you'll be come next February
1804
01:38:33.760 --> 01:38:35.960
when you're seeing it at the draft table, figuring out
1805
01:38:35.960 --> 01:38:38.119
which one of those first basemen that you want to
1806
01:38:38.199 --> 01:38:40.039
call yours for twenty twenty six.
1807
01:38:40.760 --> 01:38:42.560
So Tim, before we get out of here, what's for.
1808
01:38:42.600 --> 01:38:47.079
Dennis, what's for dinner? Well, I've had a craving okay
1809
01:38:47.239 --> 01:38:50.359
for chicken balls for a while now.
1810
01:38:50.479 --> 01:38:52.760
Oh yeah, I have to make chicken balls a long time.
1811
01:38:53.359 --> 01:38:56.520
No, and I'm not making them again tonight. Rich, I'm
1812
01:38:56.560 --> 01:38:57.399
going to be lazy.
1813
01:38:58.000 --> 01:39:01.239
I am ordering Chinese food and green chicken balls and
1814
01:39:01.399 --> 01:39:06.000
beef egg Foo young and rice and egg rolls. I'm
1815
01:39:06.039 --> 01:39:08.000
gonna let somebody else do the cooking. But I just
1816
01:39:08.079 --> 01:39:10.840
got a massive craving for Chinese. So that's good for you.
1817
01:39:11.039 --> 01:39:13.520
That's the that's on the agenda for tonight.
1818
01:39:13.640 --> 01:39:17.840
Yeah, so is so chicken balls is always in some
1819
01:39:18.079 --> 01:39:20.159
kind of Asian Chinese.
1820
01:39:19.760 --> 01:39:22.199
Sauce for you, then red sauce.
1821
01:39:22.279 --> 01:39:24.319
Yeah, Well, I've seen it blue.
1822
01:39:27.479 --> 01:39:30.560
Yes, I that.
1823
01:39:30.680 --> 01:39:32.359
On my iPhone, Timmy, so that.
1824
01:39:33.960 --> 01:39:34.000
That.
1825
01:39:34.239 --> 01:39:37.359
Yes, I will never delete that. It was one of
1826
01:39:37.439 --> 01:39:41.960
the more disgusting things. It was very good.
1827
01:39:42.960 --> 01:39:45.520
Green is worse, so they take it for me. Green
1828
01:39:45.680 --> 01:39:46.000
is worse.
1829
01:39:46.079 --> 01:39:48.640
But yeah, yeah, with a little food color, you can
1830
01:39:48.680 --> 01:39:50.560
make it the color of your choice.
1831
01:39:50.680 --> 01:39:54.920
Yes, tonight, we're having leftovers, very specific leftovers because I
1832
01:39:55.159 --> 01:39:58.680
looked in the refrigerator and it's we have a rotisserie chicken.
1833
01:39:59.079 --> 01:40:03.079
So I warmed that up with with some some rice
1834
01:40:03.359 --> 01:40:05.600
and asparagus on the side. So that's going to be
1835
01:40:05.760 --> 01:40:07.399
our our dinner this evening.
1836
01:40:07.640 --> 01:40:12.239
Yeah, it's sound sounds excellent to me.
1837
01:40:12.319 --> 01:40:14.359
It is a wrout, my friend, have a good week.
1838
01:40:14.439 --> 01:40:18.560
We'll see everybody back on Sunday. Two more minor league
1839
01:40:18.600 --> 01:40:21.680
systems come out this week, the Cincinnati Reds and the
1840
01:40:21.960 --> 01:40:25.279
Milwaukee Brewers. I got nothing but great things to say
1841
01:40:25.279 --> 01:40:28.159
about the Milwaukee Brewers system. Wow, you guys are gonna
1842
01:40:28.199 --> 01:40:28.439
love that.
1843
01:40:29.960 --> 01:40:31.199
I love the format Rich.
1844
01:40:31.680 --> 01:40:34.000
Oh yeah, I get a lot of good feedback from that.
1845
01:40:34.119 --> 01:40:38.119
It's and yeah, I really appreciate your your feedback once
1846
01:40:38.159 --> 01:40:40.079
you get a chance to read it. I think the
1847
01:40:40.239 --> 01:40:43.239
writing quality has gone way up and it's not my writing,
1848
01:40:43.359 --> 01:40:46.680
it's it's my it's my AI editor that is that
1849
01:40:46.840 --> 01:40:49.640
is cleaning everything up for me. It it sounds really
1850
01:40:49.720 --> 01:40:51.520
professional now, so I'm very happy with that.
1851
01:40:52.520 --> 01:40:52.720
Yeah.
1852
01:40:52.880 --> 01:40:57.960
No, you're writing is definitely definitely stepped it up. And uh,
1853
01:40:58.560 --> 01:41:02.279
wherever you're paying your assistant, I say.
1854
01:41:02.920 --> 01:41:15.800
Thirty dollars a year. My AI researchers that I also
1855
01:41:15.880 --> 01:41:20.159
pay thirty dollars a year. He is not like you,
1856
01:41:20.760 --> 01:41:24.239
where he has his own opinions, but when the ball speaks,
1857
01:41:24.359 --> 01:41:29.640
he says, well, I like your opinion better. He sucks
1858
01:41:29.720 --> 01:41:32.680
up to me like tremendously. It's so bad.
1859
01:41:33.760 --> 01:41:36.640
Yeah, for thirty bucks, I can't be bought. Forty five maybe,
1860
01:41:37.359 --> 01:41:38.039
but not thirty.
1861
01:41:39.039 --> 01:41:41.960
I've asked my AA, I'm like, why do you always
1862
01:41:42.039 --> 01:41:43.840
agree to me? Be goes well, I want you to
1863
01:41:43.920 --> 01:41:47.279
feel good that I'm helping you, but you're making the decision.
1864
01:41:47.319 --> 01:41:47.479
I go.
1865
01:41:47.800 --> 01:41:51.479
I want you to stand firm on your beliefs. So
1866
01:41:51.640 --> 01:41:54.239
we'll see if I'm able to convince him to like
1867
01:41:54.359 --> 01:41:56.439
dig his heels in. That be more like Tim McLeod,
1868
01:41:56.479 --> 01:41:57.239
dig your heels in.
1869
01:41:58.680 --> 01:42:03.119
He gotta program some snow exactly exactly. There you go.
1870
01:42:03.840 --> 01:42:06.760
I mean, look, I I hate people that just agree
1871
01:42:06.840 --> 01:42:09.199
with me. I don't need people that agree with me.
1872
01:42:09.319 --> 01:42:11.439
I have myself to agree with me. I don't need
1873
01:42:11.520 --> 01:42:14.239
somebody else. Give me somebody that doesn't agree with me.
1874
01:42:15.720 --> 01:42:19.840
Yes, it makes for a much more challenging discussion, doesn't it.
1875
01:42:20.039 --> 01:42:22.119
It does you come up with a better work product
1876
01:42:22.199 --> 01:42:23.960
at the end as well, right, because then you've got
1877
01:42:24.600 --> 01:42:27.760
varying opinions, and ultimately I get to decide, because ultimately
1878
01:42:27.840 --> 01:42:30.239
I get to say this goes in until the AI
1879
01:42:30.399 --> 01:42:34.439
engine can supersede me. I don't think that's that's happening yet,
1880
01:42:34.560 --> 01:42:35.119
but uh.
1881
01:42:35.520 --> 01:42:39.279
No, until it fire, I'm safe.
1882
01:42:39.319 --> 01:42:43.840
But I mean, I do like these very rich discussions
1883
01:42:43.960 --> 01:42:45.960
because I say, well, I think he's right in this,
1884
01:42:46.119 --> 01:42:47.920
you know, let me, let me rethink this, and I
1885
01:42:48.000 --> 01:42:50.800
go back and rethink and then sometimes modify my opinions,
1886
01:42:50.920 --> 01:42:52.319
just like I do with when you and I have
1887
01:42:52.439 --> 01:42:55.800
discussions like it usually starts off Tim is full of crap.
1888
01:42:56.560 --> 01:42:59.319
Maybe he's not full of crap. It makes a really
1889
01:42:59.359 --> 01:43:02.600
good point, all right, I think he's right. That's that jesy.
1890
01:43:02.880 --> 01:43:06.960
The thought process either that or zero play zero right
1891
01:43:07.079 --> 01:43:08.399
exactly zero points.
1892
01:43:08.399 --> 01:43:10.840
There might be the that's only on Asian players. Everyone,
1893
01:43:10.880 --> 01:43:14.119
I know, that's that's a joke. Everyone, that's that's but
1894
01:43:14.239 --> 01:43:14.680
it's fun.
1895
01:43:14.800 --> 01:43:16.239
Yes, but you should.
1896
01:43:16.640 --> 01:43:19.680
You should flip on the Jay's game because your savage
1897
01:43:20.119 --> 01:43:22.880
is now up to four innings with a walk and
1898
01:43:23.479 --> 01:43:24.520
ten strikeoats.
1899
01:43:25.119 --> 01:43:27.319
Well, I'm gotta get you off, so I need to
1900
01:43:27.600 --> 01:43:30.600
go and post this podcast. Everyone be well, we'll talk
1901
01:43:30.640 --> 01:43:31.399
to you later. Tim.
1902
01:43:32.399 --> 01:43:34.479
Be safe, you will have a great week, and we'll
1903
01:43:34.520 --> 01:43:35.399
catch you next Sunday.
1904
01:43:35.439 --> 01:43:35.800
My friend
