here on the channel, Welsh an explosive weekend of baseball
signings trades a million home runs by Nick Kurtz this weekend,
and baseball had everything it had six for six days.
It had Aaron Judge elbow issues, Seth Lugo contract extensions, everything,

(01:30):
But how about this. There was a piece here from
Wonky Penguin. I believe two people called Nick Kurtz four
home runs, twenty five people had him the day before.
That's crushing. I wish I had called Nick Kurtz for
the weekend because that would have been amazing. I might
actually have had a shot to make the board. But
pretty hall, you.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
Know, probably I saw this out there and and I've
been kind of sitting on this for last day or
two where someone was like that was like the best
individual games someone's ever had, and I kind of sat
on that, like was it. It might have been six six.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
Sean Green four homers. Remember against Milwaukee he had.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
More RBI than Kurtz. But Kurts was six for six.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
He had the team total bases in one game.

Speaker 3 (02:12):
Yeah, I think it was tied with Sean Green if
I remember correctly.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Unbelievable.

Speaker 3 (02:17):
Was it the greatest individual performance of a hitter of
all time?

Speaker 1 (02:22):
I don't know, but let's get a pull up if.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
We can seth Uh? Was Nick Kurtz the greatest individual
game performance we've seen from a player? Because what what's
been better? I mean a hit, I mean from a
hit from a Yeah, yeah, maybe it is by a rookie,
for sure.

Speaker 1 (02:42):
Sure it is this year by a country mile. But
I mean the thing about this Kurtz. And we were
gonna start with Judge, but you just started talking about Kurts,
so let's just talk about it. I mean, it is
a stunning I mean slash right now, three oh five,
three seventy four, six eighty six, twenty three homers, fifty
nine RBI. I had him. It's funny. I haven't been
Fantasy pros league, right and of course I got eliminated

(03:02):
last week, so none of the stats counted this week
for me with cars of course right now, and I
have him in my home league as well, where we
played the extended week because of this game and the
fact that it was like ten days of baseball. He
had eighty seven points this week. Eighty seven points.

Speaker 3 (03:18):
Sane, all right, So I wonder if I've got this correctly.
I just pulled this up here for individual game stuff.
Do you want to hear a few of these?

Speaker 1 (03:29):
Sure?

Speaker 3 (03:30):
God, I don't think any of these matchups, so it goes.
Best individual RBI was Jim Bottomley and Mark Witten, who
both had twelve. Bottomly with six for six two homers.
That doesn't take it over. We had four homers from
del Gato and Sean Green who Shan Green had the

(03:50):
nineteen total bases, which was just tied stolen bases. Carl
Crawford had a six stolen base game we had And
now you're getting into triples. Andre Dawson was walked intentionally
five times. Who is as Joe Randa had six runs
in a game. But see, like that's the crazy part.

(04:12):
I just typed in, like you know, individual great performance,
those are statistically the greats there. But Nick Kurtz was
either at the top or better than like all of
that stuff. He didn't get the twelve RBI, but he
was close. He had the four, he was six for six,
tied the total bases. I legitimately think that might have
been the best single performance from a player. And it

(04:33):
was a freaking rookie.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
Dude. It's unelievable. I'm so excited. I'm so happy for
Nick Kurtz. I'm so excited for everybody who you know,
was with us for this entire ride of Nick Kurtz.
It's funny because Cagliona is basically on the same path,
like he was just sowing some signs of life and
then he got hurt, and we're like, oh god, now
he's on the I l if he comes back from
the I l the way Nick Kurtz did, it's gonna
be a wonderful summer.

Speaker 3 (04:54):
You know. It's funny. Yeah, I had I had a
DM pop up on Instagram. Somebody hit me up and
I only saw the message and it was hey, thanks
for this, and I go to it and I see
Nick Kurtz and Jack kag Leon and I go, great,
this is going to be somebody being like, good job,

(05:15):
you dombask. But it was somebody asking me Kurts or
CAGs in a draft preseason and I was like Hey, listen,
I got Nick Kurtz higher. You could take CAGs, but
I'm gonna stick with Kurtz. And they were just like
dropping a four months later. Hey, by the way, thanks
for making this decision for me with Nick Kurtz.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
That is the first and only time they'll ever happen
in our careers. Yeah, that someone will like four months hey,
by the way, I.

Speaker 3 (05:40):
Know like they thought they thought of me to come
back and be like, hey, thank you instead of you know,
go beat kicks.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
Would Junior Camonaro home runs later?

Speaker 3 (05:50):
Yeah, I know, exactly my best single performance. I think
it was very interesting to see what you guys put
out there, and you know, based on this stuff, I
just sean.

Speaker 1 (05:57):
Green is probably there to pop out because I remember
where I was when it happened to you and just
being in awe of it watching it. By the way,
you did miss an opportunity. Jim Bottomley nineteen twenty four,
I mean, Jim Bottomley nineteen twenty four, What a day
for that fellaut twelve all the eyes and one day, boy,
oh boy, that fella Shaw is a good head at.

Speaker 3 (06:18):
Jim Bottomley, Folks just hit a seventy four more power
fastball my gosh, one of the fastest pictures we've ever
seen in nineteen twenty one. He is one of the
greatest players of all time.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
We'd like to interview Jim after the game, but unfortunately
he has to go back to his job at A's
hardware selling rakes right after the program. So he'll be
there tomorrow again at the ballpark. If you'd like to say.

Speaker 3 (06:38):
Hello, coal mine folks, he'll be back.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
Bobobley, Yeah, I get a cole mine. Go get your
pick up.

Speaker 3 (06:44):
He doesn't have all right, Yeah, I hope we are
smoking on the fields on second base.

Speaker 1 (06:50):
Just hopefully Aaron Judge doesn't have scurvy. He's on the
ten day io. The right flexer strain in his elbow.
Now I saw this and immediately went ooh yeah, well
not yay, but like, oh oh, yay Spencer Jones. That
was more of the reaction with the yay was for
Spencer Jones. But then Spencer Jones the sideline with backspasm.
So Aaron Boone said, he's gonna play like Gen Carlos

(07:12):
Stanton in ryfield, Like that is an awful idea because
I just good luck with that. Aaron Boone for a
guy that is notoriously being taken apart by the fan pace.
This that might be the death nail if that happens.
Don't do that. But they did acquire Ryan McMahon over
the weekend, which was foretold on this program what like

(07:33):
many moons Nay may I want to see like late April,
he was like, you know, it's gonna be a Yankee
Ryan McMahon.

Speaker 3 (07:39):
Which got them out of this Swarrez hunt, Like, yeah,
that was the the you know the thing this whole
time when the Johinio Swarez has been you know, the
fan base being sold that it's going to be a
lot less and teams don't want to pay the price
regardless of him being the number one probably number one
player that is actually available on the market. The Yankees
weren't willing to meet the costs, which was most likely

(08:01):
Schlittler or at one time with Spencer Jones. And for
all intents and purposes, what we've heard is Jones has
kind of taken off the market, like the only place
that he could go is if like Joe, Ryan was
And we're gonna talk about Spencer Jones in just a
little bit. With some prospecting but yeah, I think what
also could be foretold potentially on what does happen with
Spencer Jones in the near future could be what the

(08:23):
Yankees do over the next four or five days. If
they go and acquire literally anybody, like an any outfielder
for any cost, that's gonna be the big tell sign
that Like because Judge, when he comes back, they're saying
he's going to go straight to d H. So when
he comes back, he's going to DAGE and he might
be out of the field for a little bit. So
they're gonna most likely need some help and it will
either be internally bo it'll be internally externally, but it'll

(08:46):
be like the one piece internally if health is good,
or they're going to go make some type of a
trade that doesn't you know, that doesn't acquire or doesn't
require them to sell off like a big major piece.

Speaker 1 (08:57):
Now, that's why I kept saying Ryan McMahon, because Yankees
were gonna do that necessarily. It hasn't been there mL lately.

Speaker 3 (09:03):
Cheap as hell though, that's why you do that. That
one costs you practice or nothing. So I think they'd
like to do something similar with an outfielder and have
it be little to nothing if they if they do
go down that road, and if they don't, I think
it tells you exactly where Spencer Jones is headed, which
we'll talk about in a bit.

Speaker 1 (09:18):
Shout out to Axe Double, Horiso Prime and Sean who
was the first time chatter I see as Sean Pole's
close seventy three percent say yes, Nick curse performance was
the best all time according to the chat that crazy.

Speaker 3 (09:30):
You guys all just experienced probably the best single game
a player has ever had. That isn't That isn't like
fictionalized by a six hundred and twelve foot homer in
nineteen twelve or something like that. Like you get actual
data and actual stuff, and it wasn't.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
You know some one too, Fernando Seniors the two Grand
Slams in one inning. That's pretty That's the greatest inning ever.

Speaker 3 (09:52):
Iconic.

Speaker 1 (09:53):
It's iconic. I remember where I was on that one too.
I don't know when was a lot of grip that
was in the nine I want to say like ninety
in the late nineties there, because I was in college
and I remember.

Speaker 3 (10:04):
I was probably just a babe. I was, probably he was.

Speaker 1 (10:08):
He was in fifth grade, folks, that's where he were
more news and notes here. We also besized Nick Kurtz
Jeff Passing reported that Seth Lugo we should agree with
the Royals on a multi R extension. So good for
Seth Lugo. That's terrific. But this is another big piece
off that market. Now good in the sense like it's
nice that the Royal has acknowledged Lugo has been really good.
It tells you that, you know, Lugo since he's come

(10:29):
back from disabled list too, has been really good to
the injured list. I should say, God, remember what he's say,
disabled list? Do you remember that those are the days
the d L the DL The d L is great.

Speaker 3 (10:38):
Why did they change it?

Speaker 1 (10:40):
I don't know, because upset disabled people.

Speaker 3 (10:42):
Perhaps maybe you know, maybe I.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
Mean injured list is more appropriate. Disabled does feel a
little dramatic to say now in retrospect, thinking about it now.

Speaker 3 (10:55):
Like they probably get the little sign if they were
parking their car, if they have like a torrent, like
you can get that. You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (11:00):
It's not wrong, Okay, That's why I asked my mom
to go with me places sometimes. Hey, mo Ca, I
used that parking thing. You got it's good time. It's
a good time, right all right up in the front.
That's what you knew. But as a fantasy manager of
youa Lugo, it's it's great because you know you you
know that, hey, this is not a fluke. The Royals
believe that he's been really good last year, good year

(11:22):
before the Padres. We're looking at him as a piece.
The bad news is not going to get better in
terms of run support for him. That's the only negative here.

Speaker 3 (11:29):
But a trade that I don't think we had on
the sheet, or if I just didn't see it in glance,
my bad. But the Diamondbacks made another trade this week
and they traded Randall Gritchick to the Royals. And I
did think the gritch trade yeah, well, but the Gritschick
trade probably was a good precursor to realizing like, oh yeah,
they're not selling anything because they went and purchased him
for Andrew Hoffman. Another time. Backs, you're just collecting these

(11:52):
just like twenty five year old relievers for whatever reason.
I mean, they just everybody's hurt, so that's why. But
Randall Gritchick really great platoon type of player. I assume
they're going to probably play some similar role. But like
they are trying to build that offense, and you do
wonder are they going to go and get anything else?
Are they going to get any other pieces? But because
they acquired him, to your point, Lugo back with like

(12:12):
the Mets or something would have probably felt good. But
we'll see if they can get some offensive run support.
Maybe Lugo isn't such a you know, in such a
bad spot right now. Anyways.

Speaker 1 (12:21):
April twenty third, nineteen ninety nine, after I started playing
Fantasy baseball, that was when for Nanoft Senior did that.
I know it was against the Dodgers. Seth says it
was against chan Ho Park in La.

Speaker 3 (12:32):
I could just turned sixteen, maybe, is that right?

Speaker 1 (12:37):
I think so, I don't know. Nineteen ninety nine, so
I was twenty years old.

Speaker 3 (12:41):
We were all sitting there worried about how the how
planes were going to just fall out of the sky,
and like you know, in what I guess that would
be eight months? Why two k don't remember? Why two
k oh? Yeah, yea, the world was going to end.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
I love the nineties. The nineties were amazing time to be.
The nineties were the most amazing time to grow up
because you had some technology but not enough where it
took over your life. But you have just enough or
it made life a little bit easier.

Speaker 3 (13:04):
No, No, Like I remember when I moved from California
to Arizona. I just had a walk. I had like
a walkman listening to mc hammer. You know, it was
like a ten year old or whatever. And like my
transition from just like tapes into CDs and into not
having a beeper into a phone, like we definitely had
like the weird, the weird transitional, Like, yeah, we kind

(13:27):
of seen it till our grandkids.

Speaker 1 (13:29):
You know, back in my day, you'd have to wear
a beeper and they would beep you and then you
had to go find a phone and make a phone call.

Speaker 3 (13:36):
It's crazy if my kids don't understand the concept.

Speaker 1 (13:38):
Still smoking in the show today, I hope what's going on?
Jimbottomly started, I don't approve cal Rawley forty first home run,
by the way, the cal This is why we talked
about the cal Rawley MVP odds. We talked about it
several times in the last month, which just hey plus
seven hundred plus eight hundred. All it takes is one
injury to Aaron Judge and next thing, you know, this

(13:58):
thing is even guess what that's exactly what happened. Cal
Rawley's now minus one twenty five Aaron Judge plus one hundred.
He was at one point minus twenty thousand Judge for
this award, just bugging that out there.

Speaker 3 (14:11):
Her perspective, I will definitely say this, we actually have
I think this is the last one coming up on Friday,
so we on the lookout for it. I'm betting pros Arico,
myself and Seth Wilcock. We're going to talk about our
futures the last episode. We had a long conversation about
this exact thing, and I did not pick cal Rawley,
by the way. I picked lookout for Tarik' scouble because

(14:33):
I thought, you know, Tarik's scooble and how he's performing
as a cy Young winner could almost play MVP wise.
But the scenario is so crazy because I said, the
only way to bet anything else is a bet on
Aaron Judge getting hurt, and Arico had cal Rawley, and
he put up cal Rally and it is playing out
this is the only way anything else was going to happen.
The only difference in my scenario was I thought Raley

(14:57):
might also kind of downtick some of the production the
second half after the home rund derby Mariners start to
not win hard to get the.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
He wears down of course, all the all the normal.

Speaker 3 (15:05):
Yeah, like if he were too, but he hasn't. So
like my my trike scooble, what is it? MVP has
gone from nine thousand to four thousand, and Raleigh is
now up into the minus. But all it took, like
we said on here and on that show, was a
judge injury to open up the market completely. But if
Raley doesn't slow down, this isn't even like, this isn't

(15:27):
even going to be close to a race here.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
Because I'll tell you what I mean, Baseball is a
crazy game. If I had cal Rawley shares, I would
be cashing out of them if offered a cash out now,
because even if they're offering you sixty five seventy percent,
it's made a good amount of money. This is where
greed enters into it. This is why people are bad
at betting, because if you have a ticket like that,

(15:49):
that's gone for being Oh this is a long shot too,
Oh my god, he's the favorite chances are like a vandal, doesn't.
They'll offer you a little bit of that cap. It's
like cash out. You take it.

Speaker 3 (15:58):
If it's like twelve to one just forragget and they're
only giving you like three to one odds, you really
want to take that, like just I mean.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
I always say I'll take sixty five to seventy five
percent of profit, because that's what when you invest in stocks.
I mean, betting is, especially futures market betting. And this
is why I look at it very differently, which is
why you know you always say this is like this
is your thing, like you always make money on this,
and like this is how I do it. It's discipline,
It's it's acknowledging situations and seeing in the framework of
those situations where you can make money, but then having

(16:26):
the wherewial to not be greedy about it, where you
could say, you know what, something can happen to caw Rawley.
He's a catcher. Those guys get hit all the time.

Speaker 3 (16:33):
I guess I'm just saying, hold like a tiny bit longer,
Like you've gotten these ten days on Jays, the game comes.

Speaker 1 (16:38):
Back to day is the day you might not see
cow Rawley minus again and two weeks, Judge can come
back and that will be a distant memory. This minus
number on cal Rawley, there's so many negative potentials on
that where I would just absolutely flip it right away.
I go right to it. Cash out on cal Rawley again.
If they're after me like thirty percent of the profit,
now you can go screw. But if anything over fifty and.

Speaker 3 (16:56):
That's what I'm not a win. Yeah, I'm saying it's
more like thirty per Like they weren't offering you a
cash out and now they're like, well, we'll give you
two and a half to one.

Speaker 1 (17:03):
Because it's so if you bet one hundred bucks on it,
and now you would have won seven hundred on a
seven to one, and then they're offering you four hundred
or something like that, Like you take it, you take
it's four hundred. I don't disagree with that.

Speaker 3 (17:15):
I don't disagree that.

Speaker 1 (17:15):
Cinnaria almost no chance two days ago.

Speaker 3 (17:18):
Right by the way, I officially just the this is
reminded me just kissed my cam Smith ticket, just gone
it hurts in one game and did all the other tickets,
so I can kiss my twenty five to one cam
Smith far far gone.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
My big future if Bobby don't worry, Joe Hedberg and
Casey Bubba will be back in just a few weeks.

Speaker 3 (17:39):
So Sabby just doesn't want us.

Speaker 1 (17:41):
I just realized that's the last time this year I'm
going to see the intro video.

Speaker 3 (17:44):
I was gonna kind of there wasn't room for me
to do it. I was gonna say it right at
the top. But I don't know if people realize, not
only is that the last for you, I think it's
the last, Like we don't air it when it's me
and Joe a Rico, Like, I think that's the last
time we have Fantasy Baseball in the Night until what.

Speaker 1 (17:59):
It's like wand the angry guy on YouTube very happy
that one is so stupid.

Speaker 3 (18:05):
Guys go, but Joe usually comes back. Usually Joe and
I come back for like the final episode of the season.
So maybe we'll do it for the final episode of
the season with a face. But yeah, that was your
final Monday, and that might have been everybody's final Fantasy
Baseball in the Night for the twenty twenty five season.

Speaker 1 (18:21):
I don't care for their banter where they're fun, I
don't care for it. I gotta do that whole show
in that face. It's a very comfortable faith. Uri Perez.
We'll talk about him in another couple starts. From the weekend.
Five innings, no decision for him. He continues to work
his way back. I know it was only five innings,
but he had six strikeouts. Again. Things are really starting
to look going forward for him. He's going against the

(18:43):
Yankees this week. I would start him against the Yankees.
That's why I'm bringing this up. Forty six strikeouts of
fifteen walks in forty four innings, Welsh, I would star
him against the Yankees this week, especially without Aaron Judge.
I say, it's a start.

Speaker 3 (18:52):
Nothing's taking me off of him. Three point zero seven
e RA. He has a two point sixty seven expected
right now.

Speaker 1 (18:58):
Walks On been a.

Speaker 3 (18:59):
Little bit higher than you want, but he's inducing just
weaker contact. Look like looks like him his old self.
He's got a sub one whip. Like I'm just I'm
not coming off of Yuri Perez. If you're chasing wins,
it's a little bit scarier. But like also just throwing
this out here, that Yankees offense is not scary right now.
It is judgeless. It is Stanton in the outfield. Vulpi
is still out there like I'm I'm totally fine. There's

(19:21):
no scary judges.

Speaker 1 (19:22):
Time to bet against the Yankees too, when you see
the opportunities coming up in the next week or two.
Brandon Woodruff two hits, six innings, no decision for him,
four hits, three walks, and six strikeouts. He era is
sitting at two to oh one, twenty nine strikeouts, three walks,
four starts in twenty two innings. Trevor Rodgers just can't
be beat baby. Seven shutout, editnings, five strikeouts. I mean,

(19:43):
I know it's the Rockies, but whatever, I don't care.
He's been great. If I was some contending team, I'd
be like, look, Baltimore, I'm gonna give you an offer
you can't refuse. For Trevor Rodgers and just tried to
ride the way. That's what I'm doing right now. I
don't know if he's gonna be made available, but I
would be going after him hard, especially now that Lugo's
off the market. That's another guy off the market. Trevor Rodgers.
He's left handed. He could help a lot of team.

(20:04):
He could up the Boston Red Sox right now. Not
that the you know they're gonna deal with that division.

Speaker 3 (20:08):
But you know what I'm saying, he's kind of one
of those. He's like a fan. He's like a pure
fantasy pickup, like you picked up the guy in April
and then your team doesn't win and you get to
just you know, waiver wire trade asset is not quite
what he is, but in fantasy, that's what it feels like.
I agree, except we need to see what the starting
pitching market looks like because we have absolutely no idea
what it is because all we're seeing is the pure

(20:30):
rentals that aren't starting pitchers. We need to see a Gallon,
We need to see a Kelly or We need to
see a big Joe Ryan trade to set the market
because I would actually say the Orioles if they're not
gonna get a haul for a controllable pitcher like him,
I'm holding on because he has been so good. He's
a breadth of fresh air for what this team is
gonna need next year, which I think they're gonna want
to compete. But if teams are given stupid prices for

(20:54):
guys like Zach Gallen who are on contract years, then
yes they should listen and optimize their value because the
trademarket either has a real chance to be boring or
it could blow up because teams are going to be
hyper hyper aggressive and it's yet to be seen.

Speaker 1 (21:08):
Here's a fun one from that geek Troy. I got
Kurts at plus twenty eight hundred. Nice too, nice?

Speaker 3 (21:15):
Well, Oku, are you do you hold that through?

Speaker 1 (21:17):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (21:18):
Yeah, that you're talking about that?

Speaker 1 (21:20):
I just look, man, that's why I didn't. But you know,
I didn't bet on American Lakers of the Year for
some time, and then at the break, I was looking
at it. I was like, you know, if the Red
Sox get hot and Roman Anthony was hitting before the break,
I was like, that's a gym who little shekel on there?
And I did cover Kurts anyway, but it was already
minus one fifty, so you know that'll you know, it'll
basically offset each other probably at the end of the day.

Speaker 3 (21:42):
But if you by the way, I'm incredible at betting,
like number two in the in the awards. Have you
seen what Nick Kurtz odds are right now? You want
you want to take a guess?

Speaker 1 (21:51):
Oh after yes, this weekend minus fifteen.

Speaker 3 (21:54):
Hundred, minus eighteen hundred on DK right now. Hundred. Yeah,
you were close. Jacob Wilson plus seven hundred, cy cam
Smith plus nineteen hundred. That is Aaron Judge level ownership
of that award right now.

Speaker 1 (22:07):
Yeah. I mean, I think I think that award's over
now that kind of performance, because it's so historic and
because it becomes such a media thing. It's just you know,
Boom just catches on Paul Ski and six shot out
of things, struck out nine walking one in a win,
Diamond win. I congratulate, gradulatory w for Paul Skeys wanted
to acknowledge that for.

Speaker 3 (22:27):
Four more till double digits. They just want to point
that out, four more to double digits for him?

Speaker 1 (22:31):
Can he get there? Maybe the Braves acquired Eric Fetty,
good idea by them because they're losing pictures at an
alarming rate. So we'll see how that goes. Bob Melvin said,
the Carson wiz Hunt's going to start today against the Pirates,
So would you be streaming wizen Hunt today, Welsh.

Speaker 3 (22:45):
I would be comfortable with it. Pirates or you know,
even though they just I think they swept the Diamondbacks,
they're still pretty stinky. Team wizen Hunts got an absolutely
disghosting change up, and he's gonna get a lot of
whips off of that today. It's if he leaves that
fastball up and Onnill it's at five hundred and twelve feet.
But I think he is a spot starter, just simply
because this is a Pirates matchup and I want to

(23:07):
see a little bit more at a wizen hunt at
the major league level. But I'm telling you right now,
he's got one of the sickest change ups out there,
So I wouldn't be surprised if this is like a
four to five inning he does give up three or
four runs but has like six or seven strikeouts. If
that change up is you know, if it's working.

Speaker 1 (23:24):
Or rumor mill stealth. The Astros are looking around Willie
Castro kicking the tires on utility man there. That would
be smart considering all the guys that they've talked about injuries.
I mean, have you ever seen anything like this? The
Houston Astros just falling apart of the seams right now,
and the Cobbs are one of the many teams interested
in Rice El Glacias. Now, Glaciers still doesn't picture very well,
but I can understand why somebody might want to take

(23:45):
a fly and see if they can get him right,
Which brings us to Monday's favorite activity. It's time for
prospecting with the Welsh. That's right, everybody's time looking in
prospects that Welsh and is looking down on the farm. Ford.
Put a little piece of wheat in our mouth and
go take a look at some of these youngins. Yeah,
on their way major League Baseball Welsh. Let's take a
look here, start with Bryce Eldridge. Bryce Eldridge of the

(24:07):
San Francisco Giants certainly a guy that we've all been
talking about for a while now, coming off of game
one for four with a walk and a homer for
RBIs on Sunday. He's hitting just two thirty seven three eighteen,
five seventeen in July, but he did miss some time
with the hamshring strain. So let's talk about Eldridge what
he could do potentially here for this Giants lineup. Will

(24:28):
we see him soon now for the Giants as they're
trying to scuffle their way and maintain a spot in
the playoffs.

Speaker 3 (24:36):
Yeah. So, especially this version of prospecting, it is trying
to identify some that are kind of trade related, but
the most likely that we know right now, because I
just want to point out this is going to open
wide up with the trade market. Teams might trade that
is going to open up spots for players. They might
trade players to another team that could open this up.

(24:56):
So these are your likely candidates. And I've been kind
of talking about Bryce Eldridge for a couple of weeks now.
We did it on the you know, just before the
All Star break because he was injured. He got back
to Triple A. Yes, the batting average has had slight
struggles with the injury, but he's still flying. He's hit
multiple home runs over the last couple He's around a
two sixty average overall. The Triple A numbers are a

(25:18):
little bit lower, but in twenty five games, he's already
hit seven homers. And I think that's the big key
here is that bat can help this team, which I
still think they desperately need if they're going to make
if they're going to make this big push of a run,
Because you can go and put him as a DH.
He can cover quite a few different spots. He can
cover some first base as they're kind of transitioning with

(25:38):
some of this rafaeld Dever stuff he can get into
a corner outfield, there's a potential. Because of the struggles
coming off the injury, they hold a little bit tighter.
But I really do think we're on the precipice of
them just not wanting to keep him down there too long.
Now he is a young guy, he's twenty years old.
That's something to consider with how they push it. But
I think putting him in like a DH spot hitting

(25:59):
around five or six is a definite possibility. I'm not
sure how much they benefit from keeping him in the
minor leagues the rest of the way, and they need
an infusion of power to this offense. So we got
to keep and pay attention to Bryce Eldridge. And the
last thing I would say is when we're looking at
some of the batting average numbers, if they're looking at
the harder data, almost a sixty percent hard hit rate,

(26:19):
he has got a ninety six average exit velocity in
triple A. Get him out of there, the bat and
the ball is going to fly. Love me some Bryce Eldridge.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
We also love us some Spencer Jones. It was on
an epic home run tear with thirteen homers and nineteen
games since the promotion in Triple A. Now here's the thing.
He's dealing with the back injury. We touched on it
earlier in the show, But now the spot has opened
up and the Yankees desperately need some help with offense.
So if the back checks out in the next couple
of days, do you think the Yankees check Spencer Jones

(26:49):
into the Bronx.

Speaker 3 (26:50):
I do think this is a possibility, and that's why
when we were talking earlier, it's do they go and
make an acquisition? Do they not? I think the changes
that had been made with Spencer Jones internally are enough
that we can actually justify this whole. Like he went
from you know, we couldn't throw him in a trade
to get somebody to he is now becoming untouchable because

(27:11):
he has made some big strides in his swing. If
you look at old video of his swing to what
it is now, He's got a similar release point to
Aaron Judge. He's got this open stance first step that
goes in. He's using the torpedo bat as talked about,
and you're seeing absolutely ridiculous results at Triple A. All
of this to say that I think they're they're comfortable. Now,

(27:33):
my problem would be is like how many are they
going to test the limits of how many thirty percent
strikeout percentage guys you can have. You know, like you
just got some swinging miss issues, but if you're missing
some offense, he's going to hit pop flies that are
going to fly out of there. Because, like we talked
about with Bryce Eldridge, sixty one percent hard hit rate,
he's got at triple a ninety five average ex of

(27:53):
velocity he can run. Is another big dude that I
personally think unless this back issue is not a thing,
I think they are going to pass on going to
acquire a big outfielder and Spencer Jones comes up within
the week, and if not, maybe they make a big
trade in Spencer Jones is the centerpiece of it, and
then he would be up with that team. So I

(28:14):
think it is as a decent time to invest in
Spencer Jones. But there's a little bit of mystery going
on with that back injury that we kind of need
to pay attention to and maybe might be something to
worry about.

Speaker 1 (28:25):
All right. Next on our list is another prospect, Robbie Snelling.
So let's talk about Robbie Snelling here, the lefty starting pitcher.
We've gotten some I guess this is that time of
a year or two where trades are happening. So we're
looking for movement potentially with guys. We're looking for openings, rotations,
looking for guys who could get moved. So what's appealing
to you about Robbie Snelling here on prospecting this week?

Speaker 3 (28:45):
Yeah, well, I mean the potential trade market of what
can open up that you know, we could be seeing
him very very soon. He was a former Padres prospect.
I really like him this year. He made an interesting
change where he kind of dumped off of you a sinker.
He's going four seam, he's going slider out of a curveball,
and a change up. He throws all of these over

(29:06):
ten percentile of the time. We've seen huge results from
him just overall this year. He's got an almost fifteen
percent swinging strike rate in triple A. Right now, it's
a ninety five mile an hour fastball. He's found his
command again. You can just see statistically the numbers are
really starting to fall into place. As someone who kind
of fell off for a little bit, the Triple A

(29:26):
numbers have been a little bit wonky, but I think
this is also a guy that has pushed this system
that if they were to trade off Al Kantara and
Edward Cabrera, I do think we could see Robbie Snelling
and I think he's going to be a big strikeout guy,
and he's going to be another in the long line
of players that have just found success like Cabrera, you know,
like Meyer. There's so many injuries there that I think

(29:47):
this could be a spot starter, So pay attention. He
won't get traded, but I think a trade could open
up a spot for him.

Speaker 1 (29:53):
We got one more guy to chat about too, Logan Henderson,
a guy that came up earlier this year for the
Brewers and made some really impactful starts. But he's not
Jacob Mizerowski. Like that's the only negative that I can
find about Logan Henderson. He was terrific before he got
the call. He was arguably even better when the Brewers
let him go into the rotation. Now, I know Kintana
got beat around a little bit, so maybe, just maybe

(30:14):
we could see Logan Henderson again for the Brewers. But
it does feel like, well, if they're going to add
a big bat if I were the Diamondbacks and you
know you wanted Surez for me. This is the guy
that I would ask for because I know I'm not
getting Miserowski. So this is the chip they have to move.
The question is will the Brewers do it or do
they keep that insurance policy for the back end of
this rotation they currently have.

Speaker 3 (30:33):
This is and this is you nailed it. This is
the thing Like Logan Henderson, he's been solid Triple A.
He's got around a three and a half, a ten
k P nine. Walks have been kept down like we
kind of know, you know, who he is as a pitcher.
If we need to, you know, go back through it.
Fastball has been solid. It's been a tiny little idybitty
down while he's been in Triple A. But guy has

(30:55):
got ridiculous strikeout stuff, really good command. His change up
he went ballistic with in his major league debut. This
is a great pitcher. But the funniest and most interesting
part about this is he might get moved and he
might be one of the most prominent pitching prospects and
the Diamondbacks have been rumored he would go directly into
the rotation for the Diamondbacks if he were traded, and

(31:16):
it seems like because of the success with some of
the Major league guys, some of the guys they have
in their system, and obviously Mazarowski, I think he is
the chip that's going to make the big push. I
think they're going to do it, and I think Logan
Henderson could get moved. So I love the idea of
picking him up because we don't see a path with
the Brewers, but I think there's a path somewhere else.
Hit a friendly environment if he were to go to Arizona,

(31:37):
but still a strong defense and run support. So I
really like the idea of Sneaky getting in on Logan
Henderson right now because all the stuff has been good,
and I think he might be pitching for another team
in about seven days, five days, maybe four?

Speaker 1 (31:49):
Maybe one we do maybe no, maybe Before this video
is over, man, before this video's over. One thing you
should definitely do is subscribe to the YouTube channel fans
World is MLB, And of course you can always check
out Welsh work over on Fantasypros dot com for more
prospecting with the Welsh. All right, let's take a look
Welsh at what we have next, which is ups and
downs for the weekend, George Kirby some big strikeout numbers.

(32:12):
Nine K's six runs in a win Saturday over the Angels,
Garret Crochet fan ten guys to run six innings up
to twelve wins against the Dadges, and Max Schures are
lost but still turn them back the clock eleven strikeouts
at seven innings. So there you go. Max Sure's are
making the list in a positive way. For this guy to.

Speaker 3 (32:30):
Punch someone in the face and then you're good. Now
he I think refuted that.

Speaker 1 (32:32):
By the way, Well, hey, whatever whatever works, yea, if
he gets.

Speaker 3 (32:37):
Them going, Like honestly, if like if if you could
have one guy who just need to punch someone in
the face and we got him going.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
I mean, honestly, at this point, I go, I bet
wan so it O could have gotten down this contract.
You know, I feel much better before every at bat
I could just punch some money in the face. Started
that kid speaking a punch of people in the face.
Did you watch Happy Gilmore too? Did you see it?

Speaker 3 (32:53):
I did?

Speaker 1 (32:54):
I did too. We'll do the review at the end
of the show. Both saw it all right down, Logan Gilbert.
While those a good transition speaking a bunch of people
in the Faith Logan Gilber four runs, three hits and
five innings. Not great. Bryce Elder terrible, Oh my god.
Against the Rangers eight runs, six hits. Bryce Elder should
not be starting pitchering the major leagues anymore, as hardware
might have an opening. Jim Bottomley's getting old, he might

(33:16):
retire soon. And Joe Ryan on Saturday was tagged for
five runs for earned so not a great one for him.
Injuries a ton of them. Let's start in a positive realm.
Blake Snell's gonna make his next start in the majors.
That's great. We told you that was gonna happen. So
we will see Blake Snell before I leave this place
here at a fantasy Rose MLB for the year, no runs,
four and two thirds, seven strikeouts. Now, I did walk

(33:38):
four guys, but whatever, Blake Snell's working through. Stuffy worried
about it. I'm excited, right like you're excited. I'm excited.
We should all be excited for Blake Snell.

Speaker 3 (33:45):
Right, yeah, just hopefully he's not the happy Gilmore. Two
of starters this year. Oh man, this is gonna be great.

Speaker 1 (33:52):
Oh jeez, oh man. Eastoc Parades is getting a second
opinion on the hamstring.

Speaker 3 (33:57):
I legitimately think like his season might be done, but also,
what the hell did the Astros ever tell? Like anything
they say doesn't make sense. They're like, this is serious.
He could be doing that and be in the lineup
tomorrow and we'd be like, it's the Astros. But I
legitimately think this is a pretty damning one.

Speaker 1 (34:14):
It's a great point. By Lord here, what do you
do if you have Snell and Snelling? That's a lot.

Speaker 3 (34:19):
They both actually pitched for the Padres at the same
time too, there was Snell and Snelling together. My dad
Snelling a very big forty nine Ers fan by the way,
so also a big fan. I'm a big fan of
his as well.

Speaker 1 (34:30):
One of our big Cell highs before the All Star
break was Chris Bubich because we were concerned about the
innings and we're concerned about the durability, not the performance.
He'd been great. Well, he goes on the IL with
a left rotator cuff strain, So that's a huge bummer.
Jack kag Leo we mentioned earlier hamstring strain. He goes
on the IL Grand Holes one of the many Atlanta
Braves pitchers to get hurt this year, My god, talk

(34:51):
about an absolute just dumpster fire for rotation this year
for the Atlanta Braves. He's done for the year. He
goes right to the sixty day il more on him
as we get an update. I can only assume it's
an elbow with Tommy John thing, because that's what everything is.
Casey Ma's got his start pushback from Monday to Tuesday
because his knee is sourced, So keep an eye on that.
And speaking of sore knees, Mike Trout still shut down

(35:12):
from playing the field. Like he said, the knee bothers
him when he runs bases and takes swings. Well, that's
baseball last time I checked.

Speaker 3 (35:21):
Yeah, you know, he'd be fine if you're playing MLB
the show.

Speaker 1 (35:28):
But it's like, when does it hurt, Mike, Well, it
hurts when I do baseball related activities, that's what That's
what it hurts. And this is sad because this is
at one point one of the great players in the game,
the best player in the game for a stretch, and
he's just kind of a shell. Like every now and
then you're gonna get glimpses of what he was. But
you know, it's few and far between. And it's sad
because I feel like we never got to see Mike

(35:49):
Trout at his best on a big stage. And that's
that's the crappiest part about this whole thing.

Speaker 3 (35:54):
If he finishes the season just dhing and you know,
kind of does what he does.

Speaker 1 (35:59):
Are are you going to be.

Speaker 3 (36:00):
In or out on him next year?

Speaker 1 (36:01):
Wow? I was out on him this year, So no, I.

Speaker 3 (36:03):
Know you're out on him, but like, look, he'll have,
in theory played the most games. If he finishes out
the rest of the season that he's played, and god
knows how long, you'll still just be out because you
know he can't walk or swing without wins.

Speaker 1 (36:16):
I'm out. I'm out. Okay, I'm out. I'm in perpetuity.
I'm out. Thrasher says, try might be able to play cornhole. Well,
when does it hurt, Mike? It hurts when I pick
up the bag and when I throw the bag, that's
when it hurts. Like's that's what you're doing. Adley Rutchman's
going to be activated today. Yay, Kyle Bradish remember him,
remember him? Welsh He's gonna make another minor league rehab

(36:38):
start on Tuesday. Dylan Cruz also on Tuesday, starting his
rehab for an oblique Bailey ober To. It's five innings
on Friday and his rehab and Aaron Nola making a
minor league rehab start on Thursday. So keep in mind
Aaron Nola. If he's floating around your waiver wire, maybe
it's time to Adam, which brings us.

Speaker 3 (36:55):
To the best bets of the day.

Speaker 1 (36:58):
With Joey p and the Welsh. Let's start with Los
Angeles Dodgers on the run line minus one ten, minus
one and a half. Why because well, you got Yamamoto
on the mound today, so I'm gonna go ahead and
take my chances there with him. Christopher Sanchez against the
White Sox gonna go over six and a half strikeouts
at plus money plus one fourteen. Sanche has been absolutely

(37:18):
spectacular this year, and against the White Sox and that
youth and inexperience, I think he will teach them a
lesson or two. And then speaking of the Phillies, I
like Harper today. I like Schwarber today. I landed on
Harper plus one thirty five because I was getting a
better number on that RBI potential there. And you know,
going back to you know that Dodger game, real quick
to Yamamoto against Burns. Burns probably limited five innings. Yamamoto,

(37:42):
if he could just settle in there, have himself a
nice day. You know, Cincinnati's got lost strikeouts in that lineup.
I like all three of these best today. I'm feeling
good about him. Let's see what Welsh likes on a Monday.

Speaker 3 (37:51):
I am playing some unders, folks, I am gonna play
some strikeout unders. I'm gonna start maybe too skinny. He's
about two scary ones, but it's plus money and maybe
I wrote the Dylan Seas one wrong, but it is
a plus money player, I believe. But I'm gonna start
with Jacob Miserowski five and a half strikeouts. I'm gonna
play the under five and a half at plus one ten.

(38:13):
The matchup and also the amount that he's able to
go the pitches in game is part of the problem.
The Cubs are a tough team, tough team to strike out.
They're on that upper echelon of not striking out. Miserowski
has been an absolute beast, but we know if this
team can drive up the pitch count, he's not going deep.
I think he went sixty eight pitches in his last
I would expect this is around seventy, so an already

(38:36):
low strikeout team. I actually really like this number, but
you know, be warned. It's like twice in all of
his starts has he gone under this number. This feels
like a prime spot for it. The same thing is
going on with it. Yeah, so that's my fault. I
think I wrote and maybe it was minus one ten
on Dylan ceas but Dylan See's under and a half strikeouts,
you know what it probably is, all right, I'm just

(38:57):
overthinking it. Dylan Ce's under six and a half strikeouts.
This is another one of those Mets Dylan Seez has
struggled this year. You're going against a team that does
not strike out a whole bunch. He's been getting blown
up and I'm not sure how deep he's gonna go
into this game.

Speaker 1 (39:14):
Now.

Speaker 3 (39:15):
This could be one of those this could be your
last start type of things, and you just end up
being perfect. And maybe I'm gonna revstart both of these players.
But under six and a half strikeouts is because I
think the Mets are gonna get to him very early.
Pitch count is gonna drive up, and I think he's
gonna get knocked out of this game. I don't think
he's gonna go six, so I'm gonna go under six
and a half strikeouts. And then finally, I'm kind of
joining you on the Dodgers front, but I'm gonna take

(39:36):
the first five run line. So we're gonna go first
five on the run line. Baby, and Chase Burns, my guy,
he's just been a little struggling here. I really like
him to be up by a run through the first
five because I even if Chase Burns has a great game,
I would predict he's gonna give up two or three Yamamoto,
he has been almost unhittable. So give me first five

(39:58):
run line up by one run through the first five
for the Los Angeles Dodgers, And those are my best
bets of the day.

Let's see how it affected the big board over the weekend.

(40:26):
Georgia forty four whips of forty four, Grouch at forty one,
Wonkey at thirty six. Thirty two is the new high
watermark for the Samisosa jersey for Pristineauction dot Com. I
today am going with Kyle Schwarber for my home run
plus one ninety. That's where I'm going, Welsh, where are
you going for your home run?

Speaker 3 (40:42):
Call of note, I just wanted to point out I
don't think that really the kurt stuff doesn't look like
it affected the top end of the home run board.

Speaker 1 (40:48):
Maybe more that middle chunk. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (40:50):
Well, remember Walkie did say only two people had the
four homer, so that's why. But I didn't see a
lot of the It would have been interesting if one
of the top guys had it.

Speaker 1 (40:57):
So Flow, I guess is the one that had the
big a big win from it.

Speaker 3 (41:01):
So yeah, I'm gonna go with Julio. Give me Julio
in Sacramento. Julio is just under three to one odds
right now. If you're looking around on books for a homer,
he's been picking up in the second half. So give
me Julio Rodriguez over cal Raley in this one for
a little bit of home run run here. I feel
like you got a couple this week, and from Bryce Harper.

Speaker 1 (41:20):
Did I got at least one?

Speaker 3 (41:21):
I think I even I didn't get anything.

Speaker 1 (41:23):
It's funny because that Kurts like a couple of days
before and he got me one. I remember, I should
have just said that, just Nick Kurt.

Speaker 3 (41:27):
Yeah, just Nick Kurts the whole You'd have been doing great,
you'd probably you might have been on the board.

Speaker 1 (41:31):
I know I was. I was close. I went thirty one.
Thirty two is the number I think, because I still
would have been behind. I think, But whatever, should I
start Burns against the Dodgers? No, Garza, No, I would
not do that, probably not. And then Dylan wants to
know here in a season long points Redraft, I got
offered springer Mania for Stowurs, Christian Walker and Clay Holmes. Thoughts,
I would do this if you need pitching. Stowers has

(41:51):
been brilliant. But if you need pitching Manaia's I think,
guy that I'm very common.

Speaker 3 (41:55):
So get springer Manaia. You have to trade stowers.

Speaker 1 (41:59):
Of rest of season.

Speaker 3 (42:01):
I don't know the best player in this trade right now,
so it is.

Speaker 1 (42:04):
But if I said, if you need pitching, if you don't.

Speaker 3 (42:06):
Then know that probably wouldn't do that one.

Speaker 1 (42:09):
All right? Real quick? How about Gilmore two? Good funnier
than I thought it was gonna be. As soon as
I came on to Netflix and I saw it was
one hundred and eighteen minutes, I was like, no, no, no, no,
Happy Gilmore movie need to be one hundred and eighteen minutes.
If they I don't understand, there's probably nobody watching Happy
Gilmore too. Wilsh you hadn't seen Happy Gilmore probably fifty times.
I don't need all of the flashback reminders of the

(42:30):
inside jokes. In fact, I think you're kind of killing
the joke. Let me discover the Easter Egg jokes on
my own and remember them and enjoy that. You don't
have to refresh my memory. I'm not that old. So
that was and they probably would have trump ten minutes
off the movie. Bad Bunny, Marcello Hernandez very funny. John
Daly steals the movie, steals the movie. John Daily hilarious.

(42:50):
Best part of the movie for me, I liked it,
would you think so? I?

Speaker 3 (42:55):
I thought it was going to be the biggest pile
of garbage that we've ever seen. So I was pleasantly
surprised that it wasn't actually the worst movie of all time.
But it was bad. I'll never watch it again. It
has it has zero rewatchability.

Speaker 1 (43:11):
It wasn't like Coming to America bad. It's equel bad.
Like that was just bad.

Speaker 3 (43:15):
I didn't even I didn't even watch that. Like there
was actually a story which was interesting, but then the
story went off the rails. No, no, I don't. I
didn't laugh once. I don't think it was I was
entertained there a.

Speaker 1 (43:27):
Couple of times.

Speaker 3 (43:27):
It had a little bit again got me.

Speaker 1 (43:29):
I like the shooter McGavin ark. I enjoyed that.

Speaker 3 (43:32):
The problem was was it was it wasn't Happy Gilmore.
It was like, you know, what is it funny people
Adam Sandler, like knew Adam Sandler who has the beard,
plays basketball and who's kind of MOPI you just put
him in the movie and it just it didn't have
any feel of the original Happy Gilmore and what they
attempted to do with all all of the callbacks, which

(43:55):
weren't funny was to give it that feel, and it
just lacked that. So I that would be the worst
movie of all time. It wasn't, but I don't think
I laughed once.

Speaker 1 (44:04):
Yeah, I liked it more than Welsh, but.

Speaker 3 (44:07):
I have a will you watch it ever again?

Speaker 1 (44:10):
Here's the thing Welsh, if it was ten minutes shorter
and it was on TBS or something, I probably would like. Oh,
that'd be good. More twos on it. I might like
watch part of it. I really enjoyed John Daly, thought
he should be an actor, Like John Daly was really good.

Speaker 3 (44:23):
So that's a song. By the way, I saw him
post something on Instagram and it was like him singing,
So I think he's a singer.

Speaker 1 (44:28):
But yeah, look it's have They trimmed ten minutes off
less cameos, fixed a couple of things. I didn't like
the Ben Stiller replay stuff.

Speaker 3 (44:36):
They trimmed, like me, sixty minutes off of it and
made it like an eighteen minute short.

Speaker 1 (44:41):
But I had a ninety minute tight comedy and they
just kind of did it.

Speaker 3 (44:44):
I think it, and it put humor into it. That
would have been really good if it was funny. They
did say though, last thing that apparently, and it clearly
shows Carl Weathers was supposed to be a big portion
of the movie and he passed away and they had
to rewrite a bunch of the.

Speaker 1 (44:57):
Worst of the cameo things.

Speaker 3 (44:58):
The sun was clearly the dumb thing, like.

Speaker 1 (45:01):
I should have even done it. By the way, I
never realized this until I saw it real the other day,
and then we can call it a day here. Did
you ever realize that Carl Weather's character in Heavy Gilmour
is always wearing Lacossee shirts, which is the you know,
the alligator simple wears hat, his shirt, his sweater, his pants.

(45:21):
They all have the.

Speaker 3 (45:24):
That's the type of stuff that that they did in
the original.

Speaker 1 (45:27):
Movie fifty times and I never picked up on that.
I thought it was genius.

Speaker 3 (45:30):
Everything was lazy about this movie. We do we need,
Travis Kelcey, is the way do we need? Ask yourself this,
what did we need? And here's what you walk away with? Nothing?
You you needed nothing from that.

Speaker 1 (45:44):
All right? Clearly my soul is a little bit brighter
than Welsh's.

Speaker 3 (45:48):
I wanted to, I wanted to like it, but you did,
You said you.

Speaker 1 (45:51):
Had, you thought it was going to be terrible, and
then you left. I knew it was better than you
thought it was going to be, and I thought it
was going to be all right, let me, let me
try to like this, and I was pleas'ly surprised. It
made me laugh a couple times. It wasn't great. It
wasn't the first one. But again I didn't say it
was the worst movie of all frustration, as it could
have been better than it was. But it's the butt.
It could have been better what it was. But you know,

(46:13):
they just why don't you.

Speaker 3 (46:14):
End the show with one of the really good jokes
from the movie that you remember.

Speaker 1 (46:19):
That'll do it for us, but the story of the
game goes on for the Welsh. I'm Joey P. We'll
see you next time. Kids. Thanks for listening to the
