  Speaker 1: Did you just spread a rumor about Bryan Snicker maybe
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: retiring after this year because you did say that?
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: Did you say that to you? I didn't hear that.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: All right, here we are Atti, Famu craps. Can you
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: run through this for us?
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: You saw yesterday the top hitters or in baseball in
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: the next five years or five years from now from
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: Aiak Chatch ept bet MGM gave us the top ten
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: pitchers in five years, So give us one through ten
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: real quick.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: For the podcraft listening later.
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: Those Pulse games still in the pirates, so they've obviously
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: gotten that wrong. Rokie Sasaki, Hunter Green going to the Yankees,
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: Andrew Paynter, Trek Scoogle, Brandon Sprout, George Kirby, Noah Schultz,
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: Garrett Crochet, and ten Chase Dolander. Somehow Jackson Joe got
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: missed by GPT.
• 1:01
  Speaker 4: I don't hey, listen. I think the Hunter Green is
• 1:03
  Speaker 4: spot on. He's gonna be a Yankee.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't be a part.
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you are listens still about me. I can get
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: away with a couple of things. I don't think that's
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: wrong at all. So I think they're spot on with
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: that one.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: Do you think Skeins will be one.
• 1:21
  Speaker 5: Aj Uh yeah, I mean probably if he stays healthy.
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: I think he should be. He's got the stuff, he's
• 1:28
  Speaker 5: got the ability to do it, and he probably won't
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: be in Pittsburgh in five years. So yeah, like krat said,
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: they probably got the team wrong.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Is there one on this list do you think is
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: missing or one on this list where you're like, hey,
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: that might be a stretch.
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: Well, my my my thing is Noah Schultz. No Schultz
• 1:44
  Speaker 5: is what seven, He's never pitched, He's been third year
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: pro ball. He's never pitched into a fifth inning. He's
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: never pitched in a fifth inning. Explain that to me
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: how you're gonna be a starting pitcher. You're three years
• 1:55
  Speaker 5: in your career and you haven't thrown a fifth inning yet.
• 1:59
  Speaker 6: I don't understand that one not good. That one's far
• 2:02
  Speaker 6: in goods. Not making up stats either, he's not. I
• 2:06
  Speaker 6: mean Jackson Joe's breaking with the team this year. I
• 2:08
  Speaker 6: feel like Jackson job should be going.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: There and since we're in Cincinnati, if he ever figures
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: it out, and I think I see a big breakout
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: year from him this year because he's just so funky
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: and the gale Up's easy.
• 2:18
  Speaker 7: To him, Mick Dolo, I feel like.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: Lefties just like the age is just like, oh here,
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: I'll just sling it up there with this massive breaking
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: ball that goes from the lefty box to the righty box.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: Like to me, Nick Widolo's probably not in the top ten,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: but he needs to be talked about.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Okay, there you go.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Here we go the moment you've been waiting for a
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: chance to make fun of our season predictions. AJ is
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: gonna go first. I'm gonna run through just the team
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: side of things. I want who's winning divisions, i want
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: wild cards, and then just who's in the World Series
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: and who wins and then you know, pick out one
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: or two things you think stand out.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: We don't.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: We don't need help on you know, the Dodgers winning
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: the West, if that's what you got, but give us
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: the list.
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: Uh, all right, Well, Dodgers obviously win in the West.
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: In the NL, I got the Cubs in the Central.
• 3:07
  Speaker 7: It's tough. That's a tough pick for me.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 3:09
  Speaker 7: And then the Phillies Trouts will be happy with me.
• 3:11
  Speaker 7: In the East.
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: American League was a little more difficult, but I'm taking
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: because we did power rankings.
• 3:16
  Speaker 7: You know, a couple of days ago and haven't changed yet. Uh,
• 3:20
  Speaker 7: the Red Sox in the East.
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: Surprisingly, I'm gonna go Tigers in the Central, and then
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: the Rangers in the West, and then my ale champ
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: is the Red Sox, and we're gonna have a Boston
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: Bean Eater party because the Braves are the NL champs,
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: and the Braves.
• 3:33
  Speaker 8: Win it all.
• 3:33
  Speaker 7: Because I didn't want to pick the.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Boom there it isn't.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: I'm glad to pick my Phillies too, by the way.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: Uh for me, I'm gonna start in the American League.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna go the Orioles are winning the East, the
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: Royals are winning the Central. Homer ten year anniversary of
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: them winning the World Series. Al West is also the Rangers,
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: and I got first wild card Yankees Red SOI is
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: my third wild card. And then in the National League,
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: I got Phillies in the East, Reds in the Central,
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: and the Braves, Diamondbacks and Mets in that order for
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: the wild card. And I got the Phillies beating the
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: Orioles in the World Series.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: I think the Oriols are gonna pick up a pitcher
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: or you're just rolling with the staff they have.
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: I'm rolling with another year of this lineup just getting
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: better and better.
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: That spot on right there, that guy on the screen,
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: because some of his picks are like, WHOA out of
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: this world?
• 4:33
  Speaker 9: Not not correct? What don't you like the Orioles? I don't.
• 4:38

  Speaker 2: Which part them all making it to all of it? Yeah,
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: well let's let's get yours.
• 4:45
  Speaker 9: Then.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Do you think they're even making the playoffs? Or you
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: got them out?
• 4:47
  Speaker 9: I don't have them making the playoffs?
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: All right? What do you got?
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: So?
• 4:51
  Speaker 9: Not trying to crush you here, Eric?
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: You know how I am like al least I got
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: the Yankees still doing their thing. The Central Detroit aj Hinches, Beasts,
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: Al West, Texas, Rangers, Boston, Seattle, Cleveland as the wildcard picks,
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: top seed would be the Rangers, NL East. Kratzi you
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: like this, I'd picked the Phillies.
• 5:11
  Speaker 9: I got the very.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: Own Cincinnati Reds here winning the Central, the Dodgers in
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: the West, the Braves, the Padres in Milwaukee. Milwaukee as
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: the wild card, Dodgers is the top seed and the
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: Rangers is the top seed. I'm picking the Dodgers over
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: the Rangers. Dodgers back to back.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: I love it. Wow, wait hold out, no Mets.
• 5:36
  Speaker 9: No Mets.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't see it. I don't making the playoffs.
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: No, I don't with the pitching staff right now, I
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: just don't. I don't see them getting over the hull.
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: I'm so to well, I'm so he's gonna have a
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: great year, but I don't see.
• 5:49
  Speaker 9: It right now.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: Okay, Danny, Yeah so too, can't pitch either, so.
• 5:54
  Speaker 10: But yeah, so I'm also not going with the Mets,
• 5:58
  Speaker 10: in case anybody wanted to know.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: So my Ale East Champ, I go, I gotta go
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: with the Yankees.
• 6:03
  Speaker 10: With that, the Royals win in the AL Central, the
• 6:06
  Speaker 10: AL West, the Rangers because Bruce Bochie wins every other year.
• 6:11
  Speaker 10: And let's see Al wild wild Cards. I got red Sox, Orioles,
• 6:15
  Speaker 10: and Mariners in that order. Top seed is the Rangers
• 6:18
  Speaker 10: and at least champ or I got the Phillies the Central.
• 6:22
  Speaker 10: It just tasted like Razors saying this, but the Cubs
• 6:25
  Speaker 10: are gonna win the Central.
• 6:26
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: The Dodgers went in.
• 6:28
  Speaker 10: The West, but I got Braves, Reds, and d Backs
• 6:31
  Speaker 10: for the wild Cards. Top seed in the National League
• 6:35
  Speaker 10: the Dodgers, Ale Champ, the Rangers, NL Champ Dodgers. I
• 6:39
  Speaker 10: wanted the Phillies cratzy, but I kept looking at that
• 6:41
  Speaker 10: Dodgers lineup, so I gotta go with the Dodgers winning
• 6:45
  Speaker 10: the worlds.
• 6:45
  Speaker 7: Here.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: You want me both, let's go. You both have the
• 6:48

• 8:18
  Speaker 1: I'll go Ali's champ. I'm rolling with the Red Sox
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: Ale Central. I've got the Tigers. I think they're gonna
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: have a big year. I really like their rotation Al West.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: I'll do the Rangers, which a lot of people are
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: into for me. On the Wildcards, I really like the
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Royals still. I think the lineup's gonna be better. I
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: think the pitching's great. I got the Orioles making it
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: into the playoffs as a wildcard two seed.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: I got the Yankees out too much pitching missing for me.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: The Sorcerer also says that the Ashers sneak in a
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: wildcard spot.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: They always make the playoffs. That Wizard has a great beard.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: The Tigers as the top seed in the AL, but
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: they don't end up making it to the World Series.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: I'll get to that in a sec. Philly's winning, the
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: East Brewers winning the Central Crats.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: I was going back and forth on this, and I'm like,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: you know what, and this will play unto awards later
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: on Churio. I think Hoskins is gonna have a bounce
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: back year. They lost a Domis. I think they're starting
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: rotation is actually better this year. So I got them
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: winning the Division. Dodgers obviously, and then my wild cards, Braves, Diamondbacks, Mets.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: I'm very high on all three of those teams. I
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: think all three of them have a good chance to
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: take down the Dodgers, who would get the top seed
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: in the NL. But I have the Dodgers not making
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: it to the World Series. I just can't do the
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: hangover pick, so I'll go Diamondbacks, Royals, the MLB Dream,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: the Fox Dream, AJ Royals, d Backs. So that everybody
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: can shut the heck up about being complainers that it's
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: only about the big markets.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: And the Diamondbacks beat.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: The Royals in the World Series, who both play a
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: brand of ball that I think fits the modern game
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: right now, don't you think it would shut a lot
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: of people up.
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: Of course it's not gonna happen, but I like her pos.
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: I mean, that might be the worst World Series pick
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: I've ever seen.
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: I would have to agree with it. I don't see
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: the diamond.
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: I picked the Diamondbacks to be good, but I didn't.
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: I mean, I'm not picking them to win the World Series.
• 10:17
  Speaker 9: But guess what, you never know. That's why they're picks craps.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: They won eighty nine games last year, best offense in
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: baseball last year. Corbyn Kyle was a shell of himself
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: until the last couple of months of the year.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: He's going to bounce back.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: They made some pickups in the offseason, including the top starter.
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: That was available in Corbyn Burns. I don't think it's crazy.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: I'm on team Scott on this one. I don't think
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: it's that crazy.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: Thank you, appreciate you, all right, and let's finish with no, no, no.
• 10:44
  Speaker 7: The Diamondbacks are not the problem. In this pick here. Okay,
• 10:49
  Speaker 7: like the Diamondbacks Dimondbacks.
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: No, I said, I picked the Diamondbacks to be good.
• 10:56
  Speaker 7: I just said they're not going to win the World Series.
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: But the other side we didn't even You guys are
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: all about the diamond What about the Royals?
• 11:02
  Speaker 7: But I mean the Royals? Okay, fine, I get it,
• 11:07
  Speaker 7: but it's not a good pitch.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: They made it to the Alds last year.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: I liked their offseason as well, including the India pick up.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: I think there's a chance they pick up one more
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: bad at the deadline, like a Luis Robert Jr. They've
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: been adding the last couple of years, like Reagan's as
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: the Ace.
• 11:25
  Speaker 7: White Sox don't train in the division, Scott.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: That might have to change. That might have to change.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Otherwise Robert goes to the Reds, and fans here will
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: be happy. All right, let's finish with out of the
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: park Baseball's pick, since they're more accurate than basically anything
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: else that's publicly out there over the last several years.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: So let's do this. My eyes are difficult here, but
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: I'll do my best.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: Right, I got it.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Al, they've got the wildcard teams as the Blue Jays. Wow,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: the Blue Jays, the Astros and the Rays.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: Wow. Division winners, Yankees, Rangers, Twins.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: And then on the other side they've got the Phillies,
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: Me and Padres as wild Cards, division winners, Dodgers, Braves, Cubs,
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: and I'll skip to the World Series where they have
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: the Braves taking down the Yankees.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: Is there anything that we would like to make fun
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: of here?
• 12:13
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I guess you picked the Braves to win the
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: World too, this guy so yeah, not the Royals, the Bridge.
• 12:19
  Speaker 7: I love how the park baseball.
• 12:22
  Speaker 9: Yeah, and they let you win against me a couple
• 12:24
  Speaker 9: of years ago. I remember that.
• 12:26
  Speaker 7: See whatever it takes.
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: What about the Blue Jays on there? The Rays or
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: the Rays?
• 12:32
  Speaker 9: Yeah, we got to figure out when they did this.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: So they did it this morning, Davey. They there's no simulation.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: It's the best sim game out there.
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: Is why baseball is the best. Every prediction we still
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: don't know. We can make fun of anybody's predictions, but
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: one of us is gonna hopefully one of us is
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: gonna come true.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I don't think the Rays are a bad team.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, they've got good pitching crats. You have any
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: problems on there?
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: Uh, the Rays is my biggest issue. The Rays, Like,
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: I don't see mcclanahan's gonna miss time.
• 13:01
  Speaker 7: You know, other dudes are gonna miss time. That's just
• 13:03
  Speaker 7: what the Rays do.
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: They got rid of Jeff Springs, they got you know,
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: they just to me, I don't think they have the
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: depth that they used to have. And hey, they can,
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: they can surprise me, but the East is gonna be
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: a beast. The Blue Jays surprised me less, just because
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: I think there's a lot of potential in that lineup
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: and they still have a few good rotation pieces. I
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: know they've lost Kakuchie, who wasn't actually doing awesome for him,
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: another year of Bowden.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: Who knows Buden Francis now in Francis Sorry, Okay, no,
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: I mean that's fine. I just feel like he was
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: really good for the last month and a half of
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: the season, but we still got to give him the
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: first and last name. I don't I don't feel like
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: we have him on a He's not Ellie yet.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: You know, he's not Judge.
• 13:50
  Speaker 7: That's fair.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I like him with you it's a unique name. Yeah.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: The Blue Jays had a nice offseason.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: I feel like they get picked on because they didn't
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: land the big boys the last couple of years, but
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: they did a lot. I mean, we got to see
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: how how Shus is doing with the what is it
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: the thumb now?
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: I think I think the black grow junior thing takes
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: precedence over everything because they didn't sign him.
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: Is that good or bad?
• 14:13
  Speaker 9: Though?
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: I see to me it's good for this year because
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: he's pissed off. Yeah, I know, I that's a great
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: way of putting it. I agree with that. But you
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: know that's all you're thinking about, and you figured about
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: the guys that they signed and picked up, that's all.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Bobachette bounced back, yere. I like Anthony Santander a lot.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: That's who I think the Orioles are going to really
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: miss too in the lineup, but they've got plenty of
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: young talent.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: Here we go.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Part two of our season predictions involves individual awards.
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: We're gonna start with Air Kratz.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: Kratz, would you like to run through who you've got
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: and you obviously give us a little bit of detail
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: on a few that stand out.
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: One one I went out of the out of the
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: box because I didn't really like the other for the
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: American League Rookie of the Year, so I went Christian Moore.
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: He was actually gonna be called up in September last year,
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: didn't get the opportunity because of an injury. He'll be
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: up ston little service time manipulation unless he wins Rookie
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: of the Year, which I think he's going to. Dylan Cruz.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: To me, there's like it's a lock. I get it
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: rookies in the National League, but I don't know the
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: rookie's gonna get enough innings still, and Cruise is gonna
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: play every day. Macqutruro Manager of the Year because I
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: have the Royals winning the Al Central.
• 15:35
  Speaker 7: I could have won it last year.
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: Tito is gonna win the Terry Francona and l Manager
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: of the Year because the Reds are gonna win the Central.
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: Logan Gilbert American League, Cy Young, Zach Wheeler, Bobby Witt
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: is the American League MVP, and in the National League MVP,
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: I got Bryce Harper because he's gonna lead the Phillies
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: to like I said, the World Series, a Ron Judge
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: will be the home run leader for Major League Baseball,
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: but fall short in the MVP voting to Bobby Witt
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: show Hey. Last year he went through a stretch where
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: he was like nine for nine or eleven for eleven
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: with runners in scoring position. I think hitting more. He
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: started to unlock what it means to hit with runners
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: of scoring position. Stolen Base Leader Ellie, He's gonna learn
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: to steal bases eighty five. Paul Skeins will lead the
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: American League, I mean the Major League Baseball in era.
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: He'll miss a few starts though, so that's why I'm
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: not picking him as the cy Young Saves Leader. Devin Williams,
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: the Yankee is gonna be a good team. He'll save
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: all their games. Strikeout Leader went to a new team
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: who unlocks normal dudes and strikeouts.
• 16:44
  Speaker 7: Blake Snell is not.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: A normal dude, and he's going to be unlocked in
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: the Strikeout Leader. I thought Crochet maybe, but I don't know.
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: Maybe he only makes twenty eight twenty nine starts.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: Ft fam Legends never die. That is the motto for Homage.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: Go to Homage dot com and get yourself maybe one
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: of these teas. This was one of my favorites from
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: spring training. Got a little Grapefruit League action, nice iconic
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: looking logo and behind me on the back is all
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: the teams that are listed for the Grapefruit League.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: You got.
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: Of course, if you're more of an Arizona person, you've
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: got the T shirt for that too. But Kratz, I
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: just love the way that they give you the highest
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: quality material and then a little vintage action if you're
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: looking for it.
• 17:29
  Speaker 7: I love the vintage.
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: I've been a baseball fan my whole life, and teams
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: change their logos. If you're looking for a logo that
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: your team used to have, Homage is your place to go.
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: Go cop one of the old logos from the major
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: league teams that maybe they don't use anymore.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Homage dot com slash foul Territory. Go to the
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: website and then use the code foul Territory the name
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: of our show for twenty percent off. If you're a
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: first time purchaser on the website, go check it out FTFAM.
• 17:58
  Speaker 10: All right, so let's go with mine for American League
• 18:01
  Speaker 10: Brookie of the Year. I'm going with Cam Smith made
• 18:04
  Speaker 10: the team out of spring training, only thirty two minor
• 18:07
  Speaker 10: league games.
• 18:07
  Speaker 9: That he's played.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: But this dude's legit.
• 18:10
  Speaker 10: He doesn't strike out. He's an on base machine. A
• 18:13
  Speaker 10: hits ball out of the ballpark.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: I'm with theocratzy on the National League Brook of the
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: Year Dylan Cruz.
• 18:18
  Speaker 10: I really don't think anybody else is close to Saki.
• 18:21
  Speaker 10: Might not be able to have many innings or many starts.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: They're so deep with the Dodgers. Who knows if they're
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: gonna give him some time off.
• 18:30
  Speaker 10: Ale Manager of the Year Bruce Bochie, because that's who
• 18:33
  Speaker 10: I said earlier, is going to win the West or
• 18:36
  Speaker 10: when the American League and they're gonna you know, he
• 18:39
  Speaker 10: wins every other year, So Bochi's the guy.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Nation League Manager of the Year Tito Francona.
• 18:44
  Speaker 10: This team is gonna make it to the playoffs because
• 18:46
  Speaker 10: of Tito Ale Cy Young, kerk Scougle the best pitcher
• 18:50
  Speaker 10: in baseball.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: That's an easy one for me. Nationh League sy Young.
• 18:53
  Speaker 10: I thought about schemes, but kind of the fact that
• 18:56
  Speaker 10: if not if when the Pirates are out of the race,
• 18:59
  Speaker 10: are they gonna take care of schemes and kind of
• 19:03
  Speaker 10: lessen his workload. So my pick is Zach Wheeler for
• 19:08
  Speaker 10: Nation League, Cy Young, American League MVP, Bobby Witt Junior
• 19:11
  Speaker 10: National League g m VP. I have to stick with
• 19:13
  Speaker 10: show Hey, major League home run leader. I'm gonna stick
• 19:17
  Speaker 10: with show Hey with that again.
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 19:19
  Speaker 10: The Major League ARBI leader will be Aaron Judge. Stolen
• 19:22
  Speaker 10: based leader, Elie de la Cruz.
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: That's easy. He led the league last year, led all
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: of baseball. He's gonna do it again.
• 19:28
  Speaker 10: Ere A leader for major leagues is Tarrek Spoogle Major
• 19:33
  Speaker 10: League saves leader, Tanner Scott. I have him because the
• 19:35
  Speaker 10: Dodgers is gonna win a ton of games. He's gonna
• 19:37
  Speaker 10: get a ton of opportunities. And the Major League Baseball
• 19:40
  Speaker 10: strikeout leader, best pitch on the planet, Trek Spooble.
• 19:45
  Speaker 9: All right, Well, you.
• 19:46
  Speaker 7: Know what's funny is we haven't even looked at these
• 19:48
  Speaker 7: and we.
• 19:49
  Speaker 5: All have a lot of the same ones. So I'm
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: gonna start a well, Nashalage Rookie the Year, Dylan Cruz.
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: So far everyone's picked him. Why he's from Orlando, so
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: why not. You gotta pick guys from Orlando. Win My
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: Ale Rookie of the Year Christian Campbell because I think
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: he's on a big market team. He's gonna get plenty
• 20:06
  Speaker 5: of opportunities. And I picked the Red Sox to go
• 20:08
  Speaker 5: the World Series. I think he comes out, he's gonna
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: be the right hand power of the Red Sox. Need
• 20:12
  Speaker 5: Ale Manager of the Year. I'm picking a friend, Mark Kottsee,
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: just because I picked the A's to be a sleeper team.
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: I think they're gonna be better. I think I love Katte,
• 20:19
  Speaker 5: I love his folded hat. I think they're gonna be good.
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: NL manager Brian Snicker, I think it's his last year.
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: Did he come out and say it's as possibly his
• 20:26
  Speaker 5: last year? So I think he's gonna go out on top.
• 20:28
  Speaker 5: Picked him to win the World Series, So therefore Snitt
• 20:30
  Speaker 5: I was there when you win your first game.
• 20:32
  Speaker 7: Hopefully I'll be there when you win your last game.
• 20:34
  Speaker 7: Al Cy Young.
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: A little bit off the board, Scott All love this
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: logan Gilbert. I think he pitches a lot. He pitches
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: deep into.
• 20:40
  Speaker 7: Games, he gets a ton of strikeouts, and I just
• 20:42
  Speaker 7: think he's gonna have a great year. I think Schooble's
• 20:44
  Speaker 7: not gonna be as good.
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: It's always hard to win back to back Cy Young's
• 20:47
  Speaker 5: because you almost have to be better than you were
• 20:49
  Speaker 5: the year before.
• 20:49
  Speaker 7: It's tough for schoobl.
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: NL, say Young, Zach Wheeler, I think we're three for
• 20:52
  Speaker 5: three on that one too, just because I think some
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: other guys are gonna be arrested. Dodgers guys aren't gonna
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: pitch enough. Wheeler takes the ball of your fifth day,
• 20:59
  Speaker 5: all right, al MVP, Bobby Wood Junior, he just does
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: it all and an m O m v P. I
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: can't go without show Hey until someone proves me wrong.
• 21:06
  Speaker 5: Show Hay's gonna win the MVP every year unless somebody
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: has a historic here.
• 21:10
  Speaker 7: Somebody please prove me wrong in that one.
• 21:11
  Speaker 5: All right, mL home run leader, krat you love this one,
• 21:14
  Speaker 5: Kyle Schwarb or why contract here?
• 21:16
  Speaker 7: Last year?
• 21:17
  Speaker 5: Look at his numbers twenty three and twenty two, how
• 21:19
  Speaker 5: many homers he hits. I think show Hayes numbers are
• 21:21
  Speaker 5: gonna be down a little bit because he's gonna be
• 21:23
  Speaker 5: trying to pitch. So I think Schwarbs has a big year.
• 21:25
  Speaker 5: Plus he came on our show with the cutoff sleeve.
• 21:28
  Speaker 5: So I love that RBI leader Vlad Guerrero Junior because
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: he's in a contract year. He's gonna be want to
• 21:33
  Speaker 5: get paid, so he's gonna be swinging at everything out
• 21:35
  Speaker 5: of the zone, especially with dudes on bass stolen base
• 21:38
  Speaker 5: easy Ellie Scott, I know you love him.
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: Here.
• 21:40
  Speaker 7: I still have your cards here, Scott here, thank you?
• 21:43
  Speaker 7: Go reds are watch Scott, No, don't do that.
• 21:49
  Speaker 8: What I have another one right here. I know I'm
• 21:58
  Speaker 8: gonna put him my hat here.
• 21:59
  Speaker 5: Watch e R Logan Gilbert because I got him winning
• 22:04
  Speaker 5: the cy Young Uh saves class A. Because I think
• 22:06
  Speaker 5: the Guardians played a ton of close games. I don't
• 22:08
  Speaker 5: have a huge offense. He's gonna be awesome again. Skate
• 22:11
  Speaker 5: uh strikeouts, Trek Scoogle.
• 22:13
  Speaker 7: There you have it. I think we're pretty similar on
• 22:15
  Speaker 7: most of these.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I've got some similarities too. But okay, a couple
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: of things. First of all, a J can you flip
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: the card at least if you're gonna put in your
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: hat so we can see mister de la Cruz who's
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: gonna lead the world.
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: In stolen base is nice? Thank you?
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: Also, did you just spread a rumor about Brian Snicker
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: maybe retiring after this year.
• 22:35
  Speaker 9: Because he didn't say that?
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: Did he say that to you? I didn't hear that, oh,
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: I asked.
• 22:39
  Speaker 7: I don't know. I don't know. I didn't. I thought
• 22:40
  Speaker 7: I heard that. I'm probably wrong, but I don't know.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, if he wins the World Series, maybe he stops,
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: but I don't know.
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: I think, I mean, he got a good gig.
• 22:49
  Speaker 5: I thought I read something where Snit said, you know,
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: I'm getting older in age, and I don't know.
• 22:52
  Speaker 7: I'm probably wrong, but that's fine.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: Everybody that's yeah, everyone on the Braves is signed for life.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: You have to be there for until you croak, So
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: Snit okunya Olsen everybody. But yeah, I mean, if they
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: win the World Series, maybe he stops. But otherwise I
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: don't know. We'll see. We can ask him next time
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: we have him on. All right, I'll run through mind quick.
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: A lot of similarities here. I got cam Smith Rookie
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: of the Year. I know that was at least one
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: or two of yours. Position players often get this award.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: I know Skeans obviously got it last year, but outlier
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: Dylan Cruz on the National league side, I'm going chopped there.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: Aj hinchrail Manager of the Year.
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: If I'm picking the Tigers that have the best record
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: in the American League, he's gonna win it, and I
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: think he does add wins to a team. Here's the
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: big one for Kratz. Back to back manager of the
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: Year champ Pat Murphy. If the Brewers run away with
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: the Central, I think there's a chance he wins it again.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: And also he's plus fifteen hundred.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: For that award, so just throwing it out there. AJ
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: I got Logan Gilbert right back at you for SI.
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: That seems to be a sexy pick.
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: My sleeper for that one's Hunter Brown.
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: I was close, and I still don't feel great that
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: I switched on it. Zach Wheeler just like you as well.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: For NL side, Just think he's the safest pick there.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: Writers are desperately desperately looking for Bobby Wit to do
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: what he did again last year and then vote him
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: for MVP Ellie for MVP on the National League side,
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: which is a cool plus eighteen hundred home run leaders.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: This is also a wild one, Brent Rooker, because I
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: think there's a chance that Sacramento plays like a freaking
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: hitters bonanza, so I'll take that chance.
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: Obviously, he's got long odds for it as well.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: RBI leader Pete Alonzo with Soto in front of him
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: right Soda is gonna be on base half the time
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: this year as usual. I think that'll help Pete pize'z
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: a good RBI guy. Ellie for stolen based leader, obviously,
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: eer A leader, Gilbert k leader, Gilbert. I mean, if
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: he's gonna have a year, have a year, and Seattle
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: still is the toughest.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: Ballpark by far for hitters.
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: And then I'll got Class A for saves leader because
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: Cleveland's gonna play a lot of close games.
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: You're up.
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: Hold on, Scott, before we go, let me let me
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: clarify my Snicker comments. Our own Ken Rosenthal said the
• 25:01
  Speaker 5: Braves are in the last year and suggested Snyder Snicker
• 25:04
  Speaker 5: could transition into a front office role within the Braves organization.
• 25:07
  Speaker 5: John Haymon decent chance Snicker retires because it's the final
• 25:10
  Speaker 5: year of his contract. There's been a lot of speculation.
• 25:12
  Speaker 5: So I wasn't wrong, Scott. So I'm gonna take your
• 25:15
  Speaker 5: Ellie Carter bend it some more.
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: Now you weren't wrong, But I still think he's coming
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: back next year.
• 25:20
  Speaker 9: But you weren't wrong.
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: That's too good of a job to pass up.
• 25:23
  Speaker 9: But okay, that's fair coming back somewhere and some bread.
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: He's coming back. Yes, I'll round.
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: It off here. Now, nobody said this, Al rookie. The
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: year I'm going with Kumar Rocker I think we've got
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: an absolute stud.
• 25:35
  Speaker 9: I think he's healthy now he's gonna go out and dominate.
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: NL.
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: Rookie the Year Dylan Cruz like every pretty much everybody else.
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: Manager of the Year a L. A. J.
• 25:43
  Speaker 9: Hendry.
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: I think the Tigers are gonna just take off a
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: little bit with his understanding of the game.
• 25:48
  Speaker 9: Terry Frank Cone and the n L as we.
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: Know, the reds al Cy Young school Ball of course
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: Wheeler like everybody else. Aaron Judge is the MVP again.
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: He plays really well during the regular season n L MVP.
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: I think Wan Soto is gonna get after it again.
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: This guy is an absolute stud. Home run leader Aaron Judge.
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: Of course, RBIs will be won. Soto Stone bases, the lawman,
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: Lawrence Butler. I think he's gonna have way more than
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: nineteen and a half. I think he's gonna have a
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: lot of stolen bases. E L A leader Zach Wheeler saves.
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: Nobody said this. I'm going with to roll as Chapman
• 26:24
  Speaker 4: this year winning the most saves and the k leader.
• 26:28
  Speaker 9: Paul Schemes. Wow.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: So Butler over Ellie and Carol and anyone else.
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: With the conversation we have with him. I was ready
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: to run through a wall. The attitude, the enthusiasm. This
• 26:40
  Speaker 4: guy wants to do it and wants to do it big,
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: and I think he's having fun here.
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: A j were you on for the Astro show? You were?
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: You were there?
• 26:48
  Speaker 7: I was there. I talked to him.
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: No, nobody picked Jeremy Painya how much? How many but
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: stolen bases?
• 26:56
  Speaker 9: Did he say?
• 26:57
  Speaker 5: He said no. Dave Clark said if he could get fifty,
• 27:00
  Speaker 5: if he tried fifty, Okay, I thought it was fifty.
• 27:04
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: But by the way, Cam Smith, the reason I didn't
• 27:06
  Speaker 5: pick Cam Smith, I'm a little worried about his defense.
• 27:08
  Speaker 5: A guy's a monster. He hasn't forgot a lot of time.
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: He's gonna play white Field. A little word about that.
• 27:12
  Speaker 7: And by the way, the reason I didn't pick Aaron
• 27:14
  Speaker 7: Judge to win any of these things?
• 27:15
  Speaker 5: Who the heck's hitting behind Aaron Judge? If I'm crabs,
• 27:19
  Speaker 5: Why are you throwing Aaron Judge a pitch ever to hit?
• 27:21
  Speaker 7: Ever the whole year? Why are you ever gonna throw
• 27:23
  Speaker 7: him the pitch? And runners facing load?
• 27:25
  Speaker 5: It's crew And I'll take my chances with Jeff Chishom
• 27:28
  Speaker 5: and his cut up shoes, Austin Wills and his mustache.
• 27:30
  Speaker 7: Whoever. Like, I'll take my chances with Hedy has a
• 27:35
  Speaker 7: good year. If Cody has a good year.
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: Then I think a judge has a good year.
• 27:40
  Speaker 9: But without that, can I ask a question?
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: I mean, why has that been the case for judge
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: you for a while?
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: Aside from from Soto last year, I feel like the
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: year that he hit whatever the what was the big year?
• 27:56
  Speaker 9: Sixty sixty three was it?
• 28:01
  Speaker 7: Whatever?
• 28:01
  Speaker 9: The number was?
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: Obviously the home run numbers. You know, we're never the
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: same once we went through the steroid era. But anyway,
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: that year, I was like, why are people pitching to him?
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: He's a monster? I mean, he should have been borderline
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: intentional walk in almost every scenario status. And then finally
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: in the last what six weeks or so of the season,
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: his numbers ticked down. They were avoiding him and it
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: was working right. They were pitching around him. He was
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: getting intentionally walk more often. I was like, why wouldn't
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: you do that the whole year just for competition purposes?
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: Like he's two damn good.
• 28:33
  Speaker 10: Yeah, and with two catchers here. I want to hear
• 28:35
  Speaker 10: what they got to say about this too. I don't
• 28:37
  Speaker 10: feel like the pitchers these days know how to pitch
• 28:40
  Speaker 10: around hitters like like he used to be.
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: So I guess what I'm trying to say.
• 28:46
  Speaker 10: Guys are taught to throw hard, elevate the fastball, miss bats.
• 28:51
  Speaker 10: But when I feel like when we were all playing,
• 28:55
  Speaker 10: you knew how to miss the plate. You knew how
• 28:57
  Speaker 10: to if they're gonna swing, they weren't going to hit it,
• 29:00
  Speaker 10: but there's gonna be off the plate enough.
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: I don't think they know how to do that much anymore.
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: Hey, Jay, I think sometimes I agree, But I also
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: think that it's as important you ask why Judge got
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: pitches because Soda was on base all the time. It's
• 29:12
  Speaker 5: as important who's hitting in front of you has hitting
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: behind you, Like Barry Bond, just always say if the
• 29:16
  Speaker 5: dude in front of me gets on first in first
• 29:19
  Speaker 5: bases and open teams are less likely to pitch around
• 29:21
  Speaker 5: me than they are. It didn't matter really who was
• 29:23
  Speaker 5: behind him. It was more of because you could have
• 29:26
  Speaker 5: you know, Jeff Kent hitting mind and Barry Bond still
• 29:27
  Speaker 5: walked a million times. Jeff Kent was sitting all kinds
• 29:29
  Speaker 5: of records, right, But if the guy in front of
• 29:31
  Speaker 5: Barry got on and lessened it.
• 29:33
  Speaker 7: So whoever hits in front of Aaron Judge.
• 29:35
  Speaker 5: I think I saw Austin Wells is leading off today,
• 29:37
  Speaker 5: so Austin Wells has to get on so they don't
• 29:39
  Speaker 5: pitch around Aaron Judge.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: A couple other lineup notes, by the way, for today,
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: because there's some fun matchups. The Blue Jays have Andre
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: Samenez hitting clean up. The Reds were here have Gavin
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: Lux hitting clean up and he's playing left field. I mean,
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: I actually don't hate that one. I think Lux can
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: really it. I think you could have a really good year.
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: And Kratz, you don't say this often, but change of
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: scenery for a guy coming from the Dodgers in his
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: case might actually work out.
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: It's not like the Dodgers necessarily did anything wrong with him,
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: but it's the only organization that he knew, and playing
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: time and just the way that they have to manage
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: their ball club is very different from how the Reds
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: will do things. They're gonna say, hey, if you can hit,
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: you're playing every single day and you might be our
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: cleanup hitter.
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: How about also, more than scenery change, a full year
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: on his new knee, he played last year on a
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: repaired knee. We gave a Kuna pass after he came
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: back from his torn ACL, and his first season was eh.
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: Then the next year it was much better. Guys, yes,
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: they can play on it, but to me, that second
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: year on that new ACL, the repaired knee is huge.
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: For the Reds.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: Austin Hayes. I thought it was a nice pickup, but
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: he's on the IL right now. Spencer Steers active, but
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: he can't really throw yet. And there were a couple
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: of names actually that I did not know that that
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: made the Reds outfield, at least for now. If I
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: say them out loud, almost nobody even in the chat
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: is going to know. It's no offense to these guys.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: They just they're in their you know, mid topper twenties.
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: I'm forgetting the name. I saw them in some spring
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: training games and they did pretty well. But ready for it.
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: Jacob her Device and Blake Dunn, don't lie. Does anybody
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: know either of those players. I'm a prospect nerd they're not,
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: I don't want to.
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: Say that, not prospects. But they made the team, you know,
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: as depth and guys that have had good minor league careers.
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: So far.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: But I mean, krats, they're actually on your career path,
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: which is not a bad thing. You know, twenty they're
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: both in once twenty seven, ones almost twenty seven. I
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: mean you're you really cracked the bigs and started doing
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: things at what age?
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: I mean thirty two, But I cracked them basically. He's
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: a thirty so they're way ahead of me. They're gonna
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: make free before before they hit my age.
• 32:05
  Speaker 8: No, it's tough.
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: It's tough as an older guy play in the outfield.
• 32:11
  Speaker 7: I don't know.
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: I mean, hey, you know what this is where Terry
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: Francon's value comes in. How do you get the most
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: out of those guys?
• 32:19
  Speaker 9: There?
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: You go?
• 32:20
  Speaker 9: All right?
• 32:20
  Speaker 5: Coming up next right? You are a nerd, so you
• 32:24
  Speaker 5: got that part of it right.
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: Thank you. I'm a prospect nerd. You can't get me that.
• 32:29
  Speaker 7: I didn't say prospect. I just said he said nerd,
• 32:33
  Speaker 7: which is funny.
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: Thank you. I'm definitely a nerd.
• 32:35
  Speaker 7: Wor the world is run by nerd Scott, we.
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: Know, correct? Correct?
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: This one is for Jamon in the chat who asked
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: us to give them futures bets that we like for
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: the year.
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: So we'll do this throughout the show as well. You
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: give me three that you picked out that you like.
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: Oh my futures bets are the Phillies over ninety and
• 32:57
  Speaker 4: a half wins. I think they're going to be closer
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: to one hundred. I think they're gonna have a really
• 33:01
  Speaker 4: good year. I also pick Wan Soto have over one
• 33:04
  Speaker 4: hundred and four and a half RBIs. I think that's
• 33:08
  Speaker 4: I don't know, I hate to say, but I feel
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: like that's a lock, you know, yeah, barring any circumstances.
• 33:13
  Speaker 4: And I got Hunter Green over one hundred and sixty
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: two and a half k's. I feel like he was
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: in Talk for the cy Young last year. I think
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: he's gonna take another step to even get closer to that.
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: I don't think he's gonna win it, but he's gonna
• 33:25
  Speaker 4: go out there and open some more eyes.
• 33:26
  Speaker 9: And man, this guy just keeps getting better and better.
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: Okay, I like it.
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: Let's see, we have time for one more AJ you
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: want to run through your three futures that you like.
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: We're holding you te these all year.
• 33:40
  Speaker 7: That's fine. I don't care. I'll forget. I already forgot,
• 33:42
  Speaker 7: so I'll forget by tomorrow.
• 33:43
  Speaker 5: So I don't really care. I know I picked the rock.
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: The eight's over seventy one and a half is my
• 33:49
  Speaker 5: lock of the freaking century. Okay, the lock of the century. Also, Marlin,
• 33:56
  Speaker 5: are not gonna win sixty two games, sixty three games.
• 33:58
  Speaker 7: They're gonna lose a hundred okay, and then the other one.
• 34:02
  Speaker 7: The White Socks call me a homer. It was fifty
• 34:04
  Speaker 7: three and a half. I don't know when it went
• 34:05
  Speaker 7: to fifty four and a half.
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: Apparently people matter to me.
• 34:09
  Speaker 5: It does matter because I think they're around a fifty
• 34:11
  Speaker 5: five to fifty seven win team.
• 34:13
  Speaker 7: So that happens, it does matter.
• 34:15
  Speaker 5: But I've still taken them because they will not be
• 34:18
  Speaker 5: as bad as they were last year. They can't lose
• 34:19
  Speaker 5: one hundred and twenty one games. It's impossible to lose
• 34:22
  Speaker 5: that many games. People don't understand. Is it hard to
• 34:24
  Speaker 5: win one hundred games? Yes, it's also really hard to
• 34:27
  Speaker 5: lose one hundred and ten games. So I feel like
• 34:30
  Speaker 5: they're not They're going to be one hundred and five
• 34:31
  Speaker 5: lost teams.
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: Okay. I mean I like all of those a lot.
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, some of those I'll include later on in mind. Now,
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: we'll do more later. But Kratz did you have any
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: problems with those. I think the White Sox one is
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: the scariest for me.
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: Under under on the White Socks, they if they improve
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: by eleven games, they're still at one hundred and ten losses.
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: They're in a worst team than they were last year.
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: You're saying under on what though their wins are their
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: losses under wins? Right, so you think they'll be even
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: worse than what's on the board. Yes, okay, I'm with
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: you on that one.
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I have too, I'm right with you.
• 35:14
  Speaker 10: I don't think anybody can name the five starters or
• 35:17
  Speaker 10: even three starters.
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: A j Jason Stark the other day said one hundred
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: and twenty four losses for the White Sox.
• 35:25
  Speaker 5: Jason Stark is trying to get clicks. I love you, Jason.
• 35:27
  Speaker 5: Quit trying to get clicks at that one. That one's
• 35:30
  Speaker 5: a little expressive.
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: Let's keep running futures bets for our guy Jamin and
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: the chatter's there every day and said, I need futures
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: that we can follow all year.
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: Crats, you're up, all right.
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: I got Lawrence Butler stolen bases the over it's at
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: nineteen and a half.
• 35:50
  Speaker 7: Smash it.
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: He's a Paasyde's gonna have a monster year, probably an
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: All Star. Even the Rockies under sixty and a half wins.
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: I bought that it's now, I think at fifty nine
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: and a half, but you get it at plus one
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: oh five. I bought it at minus one fifteen for
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: sixty and a half wins. And the Cardinals under seventy
• 36:11
  Speaker 3: six and a half. I think they're gonna be right
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: around the seventy two mark. And I think that's an
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: easy under. Again, like I said before, if they do well,
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: if they start out doing really well, even guys like
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: Sonny Gray are gonna be up for trade, Nolan Eronado.
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: They've been trying to trade them, all that stuff. You know,
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: guys will be leaving this team. They are gonna lose
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: their closer if they're doing well, and if they're not
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: doing well, seventy six is an easy on.
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: Those are really good. Yeah, loocks for futures. Seriously, I'm
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: very impressed.
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, law Butler. I mean, he said it himself like.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: He's going for thirty, thirty, forty, forty whatever, even if
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: he's got that in his head, young player, that's great.
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: And I like the other two as well. I'll just
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: give you three team ones. Obviously, I'm probably the high
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: guy on the Tigers. I think they're closer to a
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: ninety win team, and I think they're gonna win the
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: American League Central.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: So I've got myes with a breakout year.
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: Finally, Schooble Scooble job is gonna be insane for as
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: as long as they'll let him go, So over eighty
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: three and a half wins for them, I'm with aj
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: on the Marlins. That's a one hundred lost team for me.
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: I locked that in at sixty two and a half.
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: And then if I'm gonna say the Brewers are winning
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: the division, they're gonna win more than eighty two games, right,
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: so I'll pick them. I mean the Central might be
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: eighty six to win the Central, whatever it is, I
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: think they're gonna go about that. So those are my
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: three cratses are probably better, so jealous.
• 37:40
  Speaker 9: I think everybody so far has been pretty good.
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: They're nice, right, Okay, But we're gonna keep track of
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: those for the whole year. We'll check in on them
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: every once in a while, especially for a Ja, since
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: he's gonna forget his he checked that he already did.
• 37:54
  Speaker 5: I don't even remember what I've been I already forgot
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: One
