- 0:18To write it down so I I put the. Gotta.
- 0:21Write it down. But I'm I'm still trying to, I'm
- 0:24still highlight my my my what's name so.
- 0:29What is the wild card game? Can I switch it up from where my
- 0:32predictions were preseason? Yeah.
- 0:34Of course, of course you can. Yeah, OK, yeah, yeah, you could
- 0:38look. You could look at the way the
- 0:39season's going, so. Yeah.
- 0:42So let me go back to the standings I still got.
- 0:46I still got the Yankees, not the Yankees.
- 0:49The Yankees being a wild card team, obviously, right?
- 0:52OK, as of right now. What are the games right?
- 0:56Yeah, dude, this. Is this is hard man, because I
- 0:58don't want to say like Toronto right now, but yeah, they're in
- 1:00front first right now. But it all depends on after the,
- 1:04after the, the what's name, the. Trade deadline.
- 1:07Yeah, Trade deadline. If they can sustain it because
- 1:10you know what that the Yankees can make a big more of a more of
- 1:13a splash too, because they might they might end up trying to
- 1:16upgrade their bullpen and get rid of, you know, some guys you
- 1:20know, I'll just keep it I'll keep it like this.
- 1:23I'll flip it. I'll go I'll go Toronto when the
- 1:27when the East Yankees wild card, you know, OK, probably get a lot
- 1:32of heat from that, but. OK, who do the Yankees face, you
- 1:36think? Do they face the Tigers or or do
- 1:40they face the Red Sox? I would love their Yankees Red
- 1:43Sox wild card game. My God, that would be something
- 1:47if they face each other or Or do you think it's the?
- 1:49Yeah, yeah. Because I, I, I think, I think
- 1:53the the Tigers will No, do you think I do?
- 2:00I think the Tigers are gonna have the best, the best record
- 2:04in the AL. That's the question.
- 2:07Are they gonna be ahead? Of Toronto, whatever, whatever
- 2:09you feel. You guys are big Toronto fans
- 2:11every year from Toronto, but they do they.
- 2:14Jump. Hey, man, That's it.
- 2:16Yeah. That.
- 2:17Did they jump in front of you guys?
- 2:18What's gonna happen at the deadline?
- 2:20That's too close to tell, but yeah.
- 2:27Not a deep thought into this man.
- 2:31Because it's too many teams are just close to 500, you know?
- 2:34Yeah, I say Yankees do play against Boston.
- 2:49OK. It's gonna, it's gonna cause
- 2:52Boston is gonna I feel like they're gonna they're gonna make
- 2:55a couple moves too, OK. But I got Toronto, got Toronto
- 3:00winning the East. I got OK.
- 3:01So they got the bye week? OK, Yeah.
- 3:04The central Give it to. I'll give it to Detroit, but I
- 3:10still got the West. I still got Texas one in the
- 3:12West. I don't know, I just feel like
- 3:14they're. Going So do you think they're
- 3:15going to? Have a bat and they're going to
- 3:17take over. I just think they're just going
- 3:18to. Do it.
- 3:19So who? Who do you think?
- 3:20So who gets the bye week? You think it's Texas or you
- 3:23think it's Detroit? I think Detroit will probably
- 3:25get the bye. Week OK, so Texas is a wild card
- 3:27game. Who does Texas play?
- 3:29Who do they represent? Who they play?
- 3:34Do they play? Do they play Tampa?
- 3:36Do they play Cleveland? Do they play Seattle?
- 3:40Do they play Houston? Do they?
- 3:42Who do you? Well, if text, I mean the Texas
- 3:48is when's the vision they got the buy right and they I mean.
- 3:51Well, well, it's it's two of the best records in the AL gets to
- 3:56buy. So let's just say if let's just
- 3:59say you say Texas going to get the buy.
- 4:02So if Toronto and Texas get to buy, Detroit plays in the wild
- 4:05card. Yeah, you said Toronto.
- 4:07You said Toronto and Detroit are going to have the two best
- 4:10records. So so.
- 4:11You got in Texas? Yeah, I was there to say Texas.
- 4:15Yeah. So Texas, Texas, New York.
- 4:18So you're having Texas, New York, Boston and one other team.
- 4:23Then you need one more team in the wild.
- 4:25I mean, I mean, my bad. Hold on.
- 4:30I can't think about this week. I got mine.
- 4:33I got mine right now let. Me redo this because I because.
- 4:36Seattle and Houston, they all, they're all doing great too.
- 4:39So I don't want to say that they're not going to like all
- 4:42three teams probably going to take it.
- 4:44But then I got to say the same thing about the all three teams
- 4:47in NLS. No, you're fine.
- 4:49OK, let's shoot. Yourself in the corner.
- 4:52I'll be bad. That's funny.
- 5:00I, I Jay. You wanna go?
- 5:02Yeah. Then I'll go.
- 5:04I'll go next and then I'm. Gonna have I'm gonna have the
- 5:10Yankees and the and the Tigers actually as.
- 5:21The match up. Having the best records, having
- 5:23the best records. So I'm going to have the Yankees
- 5:26overtaken Toronto just because the Yankees have more of they
- 5:30just they have more experience later in the year being there
- 5:33already and Toronto hasn't gotten that far to understand
- 5:37that that mentality, even though they've gotten some players,
- 5:40they haven't got that mentality yet.
- 5:41I do believe Toronto is going to be in the wild card and they're
- 5:45going to win the wild card. Their wild card match up this
- 5:47year, though, I believe they're going to play.
- 5:56I truly believe they're going to play Seattle.
- 5:59Toronto versus Seattle Part 2 rematch of.
- 6:02Yeah. OK, I'm going to write this down
- 6:05so I'm going to we could go back and relate to this later on.
- 6:10What's the other wild card matchup?
- 6:12The other wild card is going to be Texas versus Boston.
- 6:25Texas versus Boston. OK, Yeah, OK, OK.
- 6:36Who's your, what is your NLNL? What you wanna do, ALDS?
- 6:41Matchups and then yeah, the ALDL, the AL matchups would be
- 6:49oh. ALCS.
- 6:51Toronto. It'll be Toronto versus I'm
- 6:57hoping they get Detroit, honestly.
- 7:00OK, so you say Toronto, Detroit. I'm hoping they get Detroit.
- 7:03Match up, yeah, I like. I like, I like, I want to say
- 7:07Toronto versus Detroit and then I want to say Texas versus New
- 7:11York. That's a good.
- 7:15Interesting. New York OK, what's the ALCS?
- 7:19And then you gotta do it at NL. ALCS Let's see, I have Toronto
- 7:29beating Detroit and it's gonna be Toronto versus, I'll say
- 7:39Toronto versus I'm say Toronto's New York I.
- 7:44Knew you were gonna say that. I knew it.
- 7:48But hey man, with the fireworks has gone on between those two
- 7:51this year, that'd be only fitting, man.
- 7:53So. Right.
- 7:54So Toronto versus New York? OK.
- 7:57And then and and do the NL and then we'll do the World Series
- 8:00right after. Alright.
- 8:01And then for the NL, we have, I'm gonna say that all these
- 8:13teams are literally tied right now with the record, which is
- 8:16crazy. You know what I'm going to say?
- 8:20I'm going to say the Dodgers end up getting getting the overall
- 8:23best record because they're going to end up getting healthy
- 8:25again. And they're just.
- 8:26The Dodgers by week. OK.
- 8:28Dodgers get a bye and we're going to say we're going to say
- 8:33the Brewers get a bye. Brewers OK, OK.
- 8:37So and so we're gonna have the Mets.
- 8:44Let's see. It's gonna, I think it's gonna
- 8:45be the Mets versus the Cubbies, OK.
- 8:57And then Philly in San Diego. Phillies versus Padres rematch
- 9:06of the 2022 NLCS. I'll be something.
- 9:12What are your NLDS matchups? I have.
- 9:18I have Philly beating in the Padres.
- 9:23I have. Let's see, that's where it gets
- 9:30difficult. I don't know if I want the.
- 9:32Nice, I have mine set. I like, it's like what I'm I'm
- 9:36ready for mine. I got the cubbies winning that
- 9:38too. I.
- 9:38Got mine too. I got the cubbies winning that.
- 9:41One too much. So this let's see, I have
- 9:46Phillies, Cubbies, Brewers and Dodgers then, and then I'll have
- 9:53the Dodgers playing. I got the Dodgers playing the
- 9:59Brewers. No, that can't happen.
- 10:03Actually, I'm gonna have the Dodgers playing the Cubs and the
- 10:09Phillies playing the Brewers. Cubs OK.
- 10:14That's on your Dodgers, Cubs and then Phillies, Brewers and then
- 10:20out of Phillies, Brewers I have the Fighting Phils, OK, And then
- 10:29I have the Dodgers beating the Cubbies.
- 10:31So it's Dodgers versus. Dodgers and Phills.
- 10:36All right, so what's the World Series matchup between Toronto
- 10:39and New York and and Dodgers and and Phillies I?
- 10:47Have my boys the Blue Jays bowling against the Dodgers.
- 10:55Oh yeah. I like it, I like it.
- 10:59Who's the winner, you say? Dodgers, probably.
- 11:02Or you think it's Toronto? This is where I'm torn, because
- 11:07I feel like if the Dodgers are healthy, the Dodgers take it.
- 11:10But if the Dodgers have any chink in the armor and the boys
- 11:15in Canada are playing their best ball and staying consistent and
- 11:19doing the things they're doing when they have a chance, because
- 11:21I just have. They're starting pitching, being
- 11:23able to hold up and knocking them off.
- 11:26Like I said, pitching a defense wins championships and I feel
- 11:28like if the Dodgers aren't completely healthy then.
- 11:32Toronto has that in the Blue Jays.
- 11:34They do. Exactly.
- 11:35So that's what I'm looking at it right now.
- 11:37So that would mean I have the old Toronto Blue Jays winning a
- 11:41ring. And if I'm right and the Blue
- 11:43Jays hear this, they better send me my ring, too.
- 11:46I will, I will. I will talk to one of the
- 11:49Sportsnet guys or guys over there.
- 11:51I'll let them know. All right.
- 11:54OK, I'll go. You want to go or?
- 11:56I'll go. I'll go.
- 11:57You want to go I? No, I, I I'll be bold here, OK?
- 12:02Go ahead. OK.
- 12:04And then you could go next and then Trayvon can.
- 12:06We can go back to Trayvon. OK, I'm still in the corner.
- 12:11OK, I have I have the Blue Jays and the Astros having bye weeks.
- 12:18Blue Jays have already won the season series against the
- 12:21Yankees. They they've shown that they are
- 12:23far better than the Yankees and I do get the Yankees, but the
- 12:26Jays farm can do whatever it takes to upgrade the team.
- 12:29The Astros, Dana Brown like the Astros have the pedigree.
- 12:33So those are my 5 weeks for those two teams are five weeks,
- 12:38the Astros and the Jays, AL wild card 1.
- 12:46It's going to be oh man, this is this is I do have I got I got
- 12:55Yankees. I'm going to say Detroit versus
- 13:00Texas and Yankees versus Mariners.
- 13:04I don't think Boston has enough with their pitching and it's I
- 13:08think they need more pitching. I think I think losing Devers is
- 13:12going to hurt them in the in the second-half of the season.
- 13:15They need AI mean they've been playing better, but Marcelo
- 13:18Mayer hurt. It's also hurts them as well.
- 13:22So I have to the Grom versus school bowl game one.
- 13:30Oh man, can't get any better than that.
- 13:35I'm going to, I'm going to say, I'm going to say.
- 13:40So see, I have Yankee Seattle, so that's wild card one wild
- 13:44card 2 Detroit, third, third division winner playing against
- 13:48Texas. This.
- 13:49I'm going to say Detroit. Oh man, that's tough.
- 13:53Yeah, I'm going to go with Detroit and Yankee Seattle.
- 14:03That's a tough one. And they're playing in New York.
- 14:10I'm going to I'm going to say Seattle.
- 14:13And I think Seattle. Seattle plays better over there
- 14:17at home. And you know, Cal Riley's having
- 14:19a good year. I think they're going to go get
- 14:21another bat. Josh Naylor, short porch.
- 14:24I think they're pitching is better than the Yankees,
- 14:27especially the rotation. OK ALDS.
- 14:34So I do think Toronto will get the best record in the Ali.
- 14:39Don't know about baseball, but I do think it's going to be the
- 14:42Blue Jays versus Detroit round one and then Astros versus
- 14:58Seattle. That's gonna that's Detroit.
- 15:03Toronto, it's gonna be like old times and Astros.
- 15:05Seattle have a history. I do think ALCS, it's Blue Jays
- 15:11versus Astros. OK, That's what I think.
- 15:20OK, NL wild card. Now this is where it gets
- 15:23tougher. NL wild card.
- 15:27So NL wild card, I had the Dodgers and the Brewers with bye
- 15:35weeks. I agree with Jay there.
- 15:44I'm gonna say Phillies versus Padres.
- 15:49I agree with Jay there too. And Mets versus the Cubs.
- 15:58I think that's the match up. I have the Phillies coming out
- 16:06and I have the Mets coming out. So those are the two teams.
- 16:13Let me see NLDS. I have the Dodgers versus the
- 16:30Phillies and the Brewers versus the Mets.
- 16:43My NLCS is Dodgers versus Brewers.
- 16:53My World Series matchup is Jays versus Brewers.
- 16:59That'll be. Something right that'd be.
- 17:02Cool, that'd be. Cool.
- 17:04Man, that'd be cool. I think I think those are the
- 17:08two teams are destined and then World Series is I do think it's
- 17:12a Jays. I feel like this is their wow.
- 17:16I'll say, all right, Rob here we.
- 17:18Go. OK, I'm gonna I'm gonna say
- 17:24this. Hold on.
- 17:26Let me pull up the I had the standings here.
- 17:30Hold on a SEC. There we go.
- 17:32OK, that's pretty. Quick from you, right?
- 17:34Straightforward. Yeah, you were.
- 17:35Good man. OK, see here.
- 17:40OK. For the for the top seeds, I
- 17:43think it's going to be I agree with you Rocky.
- 17:46I think it's going to be Toronto and Houston and then for the
- 17:54wild card, the wild card game. It's, it's going to be, I think
- 18:31it's going to be Texas, man. OK, I think.
- 18:35Texas goes up in there and, and, and you're going to, you're
- 18:38going to see a surprise with me. And this might be a bold take,
- 18:42but New York Yankees missed the playoffs.
- 18:45Wow, I'm going. To say that I said that the
- 18:48beginning of the year and I think that I think I don't care
- 18:52what moves they make. I think they, they missed the
- 18:54playoffs. Oh shit, yeah.
- 18:58They they fall right out of it, man.
- 19:00You know, I think, I think the three wild card teams, and this
- 19:04is bold. Like I said, I'm going bold,
- 19:06right? The three wild card teams I have
- 19:08are being Texas, Seattle and Boston.
- 19:14I think in the end, those would be the three wild card.
- 19:18I think. So we'll ride with that.
- 19:23OK, Where are we? The ALDS?
- 19:26How does that go again? The the so wild.
- 19:29AL wild card won, so it's the third division winner versus the
- 19:33third wild card and then the first wild card versus the
- 19:36second wild card. OK, so then I guess it would be
- 19:42OK. So it'd be the first.
- 19:44OK, So I guess so be Detroit then, yeah?
- 19:52Detroit. You got Detroit wild card one
- 19:55versus Texas, and who would be the other?
- 19:58Texas. Yeah, Texas suit.
- 20:00Would be wild card 3. So who would be the wild card
- 20:02ones and twos? It would be Oh yeah, be the two
- 20:08top wild card seats. So probably be I'm gonna say
- 20:12Seattle wins the top wild card spot.
- 20:14OK, they're. At home versus?
- 20:16And then actually, actually, no, I I think it's going to be Texas
- 20:20gets 2 and Boston gets the third wild card spot.
- 20:23OK. You think Boston makes it OK?
- 20:25Yeah. Boston makes the third wild card
- 20:28spot I could. Be wrong about the Yankees, but
- 20:30we'll see. OK, Seattle versus Texas.
- 20:33OK who? What are the two teams that come
- 20:35out? Of the of between Texas and
- 20:42Detroit. Was it or is it?
- 20:43Yeah. Texas and Boston, I mean, no,
- 20:46no, no, no. Detroit and Boston, Seattle
- 20:48versus Texas, OK. Detroit, I thought.
- 20:52I think Detroit beats Boston. OK.
- 20:55And who's Seattle and Texas? Thanks.
- 20:57Seattle beats Texas. Because.
- 21:01They got the pitching. Seattle versus Texas.
- 21:03OK, you got So you like Seattle. Yeah, OK.
- 21:07We're who's your wild card rounds?
- 21:10Who's so so between? So you have Detroit facing.
- 21:17I think you're Detroit facing Toronto.
- 21:19So yeah, Detroit. Facing Toronto, yeah.
- 21:22And. Then Seattle versus seriously
- 21:24like me. OK.
- 21:25Yeah, I think. I think Toronto beats Detroit.
- 21:30Blue Jays versus Tigers like old times.
- 21:33And then you got NL. Wild card is you got the other
- 21:39wild card. Sorry, the NL, the NLCS, right,
- 21:42it's. Houston Ald.
- 21:45SALDS, sorry. ALDS and NLDS, sorry.
- 21:48And then you got Houston. Houston versus Seattle.
- 21:56I'm gonna say, Houston, what's that?
- 21:59OK. And so you got, what do you got,
- 22:01Jason Houston? OK, Jason.
- 22:04Houston, Yeah. And I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say
- 22:08the Jays beat Houston. OK.
- 22:11And then you got to do the NL. OK, OK.
- 22:16What's the World Series, though? Well, you got to do the right.
- 22:19The Jays are in the World Series, right?
- 22:21OK, so. You got the NLS NL wild cards,
- 22:24Who are The Who gets the bye weeks?
- 22:27Who gets the two best records in?
- 22:29Yeah, the NL is a little bit more murky.
- 22:34I'm I'm going to say the top spot in the NL is going to go to
- 22:41the Milwaukee Brewers. OK, who is the other team that
- 22:46gets a buy let? Me see.
- 22:59I'll give it to the Dodgers. I think they'll get their act
- 23:02together. They'll add stuff at the
- 23:05deadline and and the the offense will get back to mashing again.
- 23:10Okay, So what are your wild card matchups?
- 23:16Well, be Chicago, right? Would be there, yeah.
- 23:22OK Cubs, get the top wild card. Yeah, food.
- 23:27They're. Facing versus OK, they get the
- 23:29second wild card and who gets the third division win?
- 23:34I'm going to say no. No, no.
- 23:35No, I I disagree. I I think the Mets get the wild
- 23:38card and Phillies get the division win.
- 23:41OK, so you got Phillies at home against the Cubs.
- 23:44OK. And then you got the Mets.
- 23:46The Mets get the top wild card. Let's the top wild card, yeah,
- 23:55the the Mets get the top walk. Yeah, yeah, yeah, right, yeah,
- 23:59yes. OK.
- 24:01The Mets get the top wild card. And I said oh, no.
- 24:04I said the Cubs got the top wild card.
- 24:06Yeah. So they would have #2 So who
- 24:09gets wild card too then? The Cubs, the Mets.
- 24:13OK, the Mets, and then the Phillies.
- 24:14Who do? Who face the third wild card?
- 24:16The Phillies see. This is where I have a tough
- 24:19time between the Phillies and the Padres, but I have a hard
- 24:28time seeing the the Phillies. I must say, the Phillies, I'm
- 24:32just going to leave it like cadres.
- 24:33OK, so who do you have? The Mets and the and the
- 24:36Phillies? Or the Cubs and the Phillies?
- 24:41For what? The division?
- 24:43No Wild. Card round.
- 24:44You got the Phillies round. The Cubs and the.
- 24:49And the Phillies, OK. Yeah, the Phillies, yeah.
- 24:53OK, so you got the Dodgers versus Phillies and Cubs versus
- 25:00Brewers. That's going to be a hell of a
- 25:02match up, man. Damn.
- 25:03Yeah. Who do?
- 25:06Who's coming out? Of which one of the?
- 25:11NLDS Dodgers versus Phillies. I'm going to say it's the
- 25:18Phillies. OK.
- 25:19And Brewers versus Cubs. So the Brewer, the brew brew.
- 25:31And you have the Phillies coming out or the Dodgers, Yeah.
- 25:39Because I think they got better pitching.
- 25:41Then the Dodgers. OK, so Phillies, Brewers.
- 25:44Who comes out? Between the Phillies and the
- 25:48Brewers are the Brewers. So you got Jays Brewers as well.
- 25:54OK, I do. Yeah, I do.
- 25:55We have. We have different paths of
- 25:57getting there, but our results are the same in the end.
- 26:00Who's the? Winner, I know your answer for
- 26:02why do I even ask? I gotta.
- 26:04Go with the Jays man, OK? OK, Trayvon, you're the last guy
- 26:10in the corner. Still OK?
- 26:15Man, this is hard dude. It's.
- 26:16Fine. No, it is hard, man.
- 26:18It's not easy, I'm just. Going to, I'm just going to wing
- 26:21it. I kind of switched it up a
- 26:22little bit, but I'm going to go, I'm going to go Toronto for the
- 26:31east. OK.
- 26:33Do they get the buy? No.
- 26:37OK, so who gets the buys? Tigers get the buy, Who's the
- 26:41other? Team Tigers are going.
- 26:42To have the best. Record yes.
- 26:44OK, Tigers. And who's the other team that
- 26:46gets a buy? There's two teams, Texas or
- 26:50Toronto. No, Toronto will get it.
- 26:54OK. All right.
- 26:56So you do have Toronto, you just have them as a second, second.
- 26:59OK, Yeah. Then I'm, I'm gonna go with
- 27:01Houston though. I'm just going to take the West
- 27:04because they're like, they're also, even though Texas is hot
- 27:10right now and I feel like Texas is going to get that.
- 27:12But just the whole Seattle thing, that's kind of give me a
- 27:17little bit. And that's why I'm kind of like
- 27:18thinking I don't know who if I should put for 3rd, but Yankees
- 27:22in Boston will be the wild card. Wild card one would be Yankees.
- 27:28Wild card 2 would be Boston. So you got Yankees versus
- 27:31Boston, and who does you have? Who has a third wild card?
- 27:39Seattle. Who was the other teams that's
- 27:43in the picture? Seattle, Texas.
- 27:45Houston, TX. Is going to.
- 27:47I think Texas is going to get a big bat.
- 27:49OK, so you got Houston versus Texas.
- 27:52Oh my God, so you so who so who has the so you got Texas?
- 27:59Well, the. Best the best number, yeah,
- 28:01because Houston, Houston's number 3 and and Texas will be
- 28:07#3 also. So you think you think.
- 28:08Seattle's out. Huh, that's interesting.
- 28:10I no you got 3. The division The number three
- 28:14division plays against number one Wild.
- 28:18Card No No. So #3 no #3 division plays #3
- 28:22wild card and number #1 wild card.
- 28:24Plays #2 wild card. OK all.
- 28:27Right, so you. Got Yankees as Boston won two,
- 28:30so they face each other. That's a history.
- 28:33And you got Houston versus Texas in Texas.
- 28:36So so Seattle's out. All right.
- 28:39Who do you have the winners as? The wild card winners between
- 28:44Yankees and Boston and Houston and Texas.
- 28:49I think Boston gonna be super excited to be in that, but I
- 28:52just don't think they have any kind of chance against the
- 28:55Yankees. So I got Yankees winning it.
- 29:00OK again. Is against them.
- 29:03Then I have I have Texas beating Houston.
- 29:08OK. So ALDS is, let me see here,
