Fasten your seat belts. Would go into the ninth. I that brigitte balance for shaded thank you. it's time for the pocket protector. Centrum the analytic numbers. You need to know well. Maybe anthony masterson as his name. Bs analytics is gay. What do you got for me anthony. Last week i talked about raises. And how close they all were while. Except one shohei otani is the foregone conclusion for aol. Mvp right well. Don't tell that vladimir guerrero junior who along with his bluejays are making a wild run to greatness over the past week live lady is writing a squirting september and the prospect of becoming the thirteenth player in. Mlb history and just the second in the digital era to win the triple crown. It's now in reach remember. Rbi became an official stat back in nineteen twenty at the end of monday's games body juniors now leading the al with the three eighteen average leading in home runs with forty five and he's third rbi four behind. Jose abreu you and to behind salvador perez while his bluejays have gone from six and a half games back in the wild card on august twenty seventh to leading the race as of september thirteenth. Could it co mbp beyond the horizon if guerrero wins the triple crown and gets a squad to the postseason. All that would not be without precedent in one thousand nine hundred seventy nine. Both the cardinals keith. And the pirates. Willie stargell tecom co. mvp honors in the national league receiving the same votes. Now otani is having all time unique season. We are unlikely to ever see again. He's tops in war among other things but guerrero's case is getting better by the day. I do not envy the voters. This season was a big week in the big leagues for is it fair and now thick from mlb. Bro dot com. Here's jr gamble after fourteen seasons with the milwaukee brewers ryan braun folly. Decided to retire is if foul or fair to say that brown pd conviction. Aside is one of the best players of his generation. That is phalle. That is a foul ryan. Bras name might not ring bells with the kids. Of the tat. Tease ole tiny vlad. Guerrero junior generation. But not too long ago. He was a big deal for small. Market milwaukee at a time when they were pretty darn good fifth overall. Pick out of miami and fast tracked into the pros in two years. He won rookie of being two thousand seven and finished third in the mvp voting. A couple years later which was a sure sign that braun was emerging as one of the best players in the game in two thousand eleven. He finally reached his pinnacle and one the nfl mvp from two thousand eight to two thousand twelve. He was a mainstay at the midsummer classic. What makes them special is that. He played for one team his entire career. Which is rare for an all-star caliber player these days. He's also littered all over the milwaukee record books. He's like top ten in everything. He's got three hundred fifty two career bombs. He's may six all star games. His career is not been shabby at all very solid. The only blemish unfortunately on bronze career is that he ended up serving a suspension for. Pd's in two thousand thirteen. As a result of mlb investigation into multiple players using performance enhancing drugs it elevated into a huge fiasco braun line and trying to blame the specimen handler for why he tested positive it was ugly it kinda comical but out of sight outta mind time heals all wounds brown recovered. To have some solid seasons he was accepted back into good graces of the milwaukee fans. And now we say goodbye but we flow. We go my other great with braun. Besides pd use the fact that he's stolen mvp from kim who went thirty nine homers and stole forty bases and lead baseball with one hundred and twenty six. Rb i in two thousand eleven. That's another story. Though for another day all in all brawn never got to play in that world series with milwaukee. But he's definitely one of the greatest bruise of all time. He's not like that. like that. Like robin yell. But he's a heck of a bra just not one of the best players of his generation pay cash.

Bs analytics is gay. What do you got for me. Anthony with about six weeks left in the regular season. We're starting to see the playoff races begin to take shape the reds there. Surging the padres. They're flailing the yankees. Well they can't be stopped but what's most important going forward could end up being each teams remaining schedule the dodgers chasing the giants still but they play each other only three more times a week in series at the beginning of september. The yankees only have one more series each with their division rivals red sox and rays while the al west might come down to the astros and as playing each other on each of the season's final two weekends the wild card race however could be the most intriguing of them all the giants. Dodgers are pretty much locked into the first spot. But cincinnati in san diego will be fighting to the finish however the rest of the way. The padres have the toughest remaining schedule based on opponent. Win percentage at five seventy eat a full thirty five points tougher than the next closest team. Arizona they have a goblet in their final twelve games by the way play. The giants braves dodgers the reds on. The other hand had the second easiest schedule left at four sixty seven win percentage ten of their final twelve games are in pittsburgh in washington by the way only philly has it easier than the red legs however don't count out the friars just yet this season. The padres are thirty. Two and twenty two against teams five hundred or better the best mark in the national league and only behind houston in all of baseball. These final six weeks are going to be phone was a big week in the big leagues for is it fair from. Mld bro dot com. Here's jr gambling. Miguel cabrera became the twenty eight member of baseball's distinguish five hundred. Home run club. Jr is if foul or is a fair to say he's the last five hundred homer guy. The mlb will see in a long time. That's how that is a foul. Of course you have the young bombers. Like t's junior and flagged guerrero junior who almost definitely will get barron about fifteen years or more but i did come up with to legitimate names. That should get their pretty soul. Nelson cruz was forty two. But he rakes like he's twenty one still and believe it or not he needs jets fifty seven more homers to get to five hundred boy. He really crept up on us. Only two men however have hit even thirty five career home or starting in their age. Forty one season. That's carlton fists with fifty three and barry barnes who had fifty four. So no one's ever even gun would cruise is attempting to do but despite his age crews have twenty six homers. This season so age is definitely just a number any still cooking. So i see him banging down these last fifty seven pretty easily over the next couple of years. Believe it or not giancarlo. Stanton is already two thirds of the way to five hundred homers. He has three hundred thirty. Three home runs entering wednesday's game and he's just thirty one years old now. He's had a lot of health problems or it have even more home runs so if you figure. He's on the upside of his health. He should cruise to five hundred runs. That'll be five more thirty homeless seasons that should about do it or eight. More twenty plus oma season scattered until he's about forty he can do it either way. These guys are in a great position to become the twenty nine in thirty the sluggers in history to achieve a mark of five hundred career homers. That almost guarantee them hall of fame induction money into more money now. It's time for betting on the basis. With dave gas guy that money roberts on as we close out the month of august in style. Hard to believe. September is here and so majorly baseball's postseason return anyways as we close out this month. Look at the dodgers in rockies. Game number one friday night i'm taking the l. a. No matter what their hot pursuit of the san francisco giants for the national league west title dodgers needed to keep pace with them. Rock is been brutal. This season. Fourteen in forty-six away from the happy confines. Of course field dodgers in this one to stir things out on the other side of the american league tampa bay rays or holding up. Everybody now boston the new york. Yankees who've come on strong as of late some tick and tampa there in baltimore in this matchup with mike walker versus harvey in the affair and the other game. I'm looking at isn't atlanta's the giants and the atlanta braves the should be fantastic. Pitching matchup max. Freed will be going for the home team in this affair. He's eleven and seven this year. The era of three forty nine. I'm looking for atlanta. Hold off san francisco and get the w. and that contest it's time for trash. Talk twitter with your chance to trash many one or anything in major league baseball this week. The san diego padres were the target number one on trash talking but we pick this one from lloyd. Christmas seventy six. He tweeted me. This the padres are all hype. Third place in ano- west play like mother fathers. Wow i i mean other than curse words i get it. If you want your tweet to be on trash-talking next week make sure you hit me up on my twitter at rob parker f s one. When rob was the newspaper columnist he lived by this motto.

Welcome to the podcast. Rob is always an honor to be in a conversation view of any sort my man. Hey i gotta you cover all the baseball but we gotta talk about the yankees and their hot streak going into Wednesday night they have won eleven in a row first time since one thousand nine hundred eighty five. And what's been the turnaround. Ken for the bronx bombers then a few different things rob but i think it starts with their starting pitching. It's really superb. Even as garrett call jordan montgomery mistimed was cove. It and some other guys have been injured. The starting pitching is really lead the way then. I think you go to Lineup balance you know they even though. Anthony rizzo joey gallo or crushing it just to have those guys in the lineups make makes the apology manager thanked about you know what to do. Bullpen wise and then they've got a little more athletic talk about tyler wave. He's been stealing a lot of basis in this young shortstop andrew villas filling in for glacier torres who's injured.

But i don't think they'd run away with the central u. Surprise i am a little surprised Not now having seen some of the way that they're young pitchers developed their starting rotation is is probably the best if i had to say at least at the best in the national league and maybe even the best in all the major leagues and he took it looking at their starting rotation and then when you got hater and i think williams the back end. You're you're talking about high end. Pitching they did a nice job of adding position. Players cold longs had a really good season. They've made some nice moves did it kinda supplemented their offense but their their in house. Pitching that they've developed is turned out to be super high end. And it's it's good. They're going to be a tough out. I would say if i had to pick a national league representative right now For the world series. I i think i would go with with.

"Easy it is to file a claim with geico. We hired a soap opera star. Gracious me like our has storm damage. I to file a claim could possibly get worse when my claims team leave me for someone else. Someone less intense. No actually when you file a claim with geico you get your dedicated claims team. Who promises to stay with you throughout the process. I've never known such loyalty. I can't wait for the second season. Geico great service without all the drama. It's time for the pocket. Protector centrum the analytic numbers. You need to know well. Maybe anthony masterson is his name. Bs analytics is gay. What do you got for me. Anthony with the padres fernando totti's junior once again announcing his presence off the i l. with authority for the third time this season a to homer dana is. I came back on sunday. The nl mvp odds are once again back. Kentucky's his favor. If there were ever pointed somewhere else the padres shortstop has unequivocally been the best player in the national league when he's been on the field this season but what does that meant for the padres as a team. Well it's hard to figure out but the padres have been a fairly average offense even when taty has been healthy this season middle of the pack in the nfl and runs extra base. hits home runs. Their and walk. Rates are elite. Don't really jive with the talent on the roster. In fact as of august sixteenth the padres were just forty seven and forty two in games in which totti's appeared of five twenty eight win percentage and twenty and twelve games. He missed a six twenty five. Win percentage no one. Here's singapore are better off without totti's it's just a fun. Statistical oddity only seemed to get in baseball. It also got me thinking but which players have been a part of the most victories this season not the best players necessarily but the ones whose teams have won the most in their outings. No surprise with the league's best record. The giants on the top two spots at stanford has won two thirds of mike. You stransky's one. Hundred games played but number three on that list. Switch teams during the season. As a brewers willie adamas went from tampa to milwaukee and seen his teams go seventy five and forty in his presence. Now hopefully can stay on the field over the season's final six weeks to. I don't know maybe bump that team win percentage up a bit. That was sarcasm was a big week in the big leagues for is it fair and now from. Mlb bro dot com. Here's jr gamble. We're mac sure's it was traded to the dodgers from the nets shortstop trade turner was considered like a throw in player in the blockbuster deal and is overlooked when mentioning the elite shortstops in the game. Jr is foul boys. It fair to say that turner will shed the underrated tag this season as a member of the dodgers fair trade. Turner was one of the best. Kept secrets baseball along the nationals. He gets high average in fact. He said for the cycle three times. He's a world champion and he's fast as head swiping more than thirty basis in four out of six full seasons in three forty two as a rookie and never sent his power. Numbers have been increasing. The shortstop position is a glamour position of fortunately and san fernando tap. Teeth came into the league. He's been the all-star that position in the national league and turn is modest. Power numbers have caused people to overlook his all around game. He's like a throwback he says seasons of forty three and forty six deals and is approaching the twenty twenty mar as a member of the star. Studded dodgers turn his already more popular being appreciated for everything from the way. He hits in fields to the way he slides. He's a gamer. He's all over social media as the dodgers fight for the nfl west. La was the perfect place for god. Who made his first all star game this season and just needed to get on the dodgers superstar radar to get full props money into more money though. It's time for betting on the basis with dave guests. Guy that money. Got that money. Roberts a brand-new week. We came off a stellar performance. A weekend to go and we continue that trend. Today with the new york. Mets and the los angeles dodgers. Elliot's trying to keep pace the san francisco giants that never seemed to want to lose and the dodgers also lit up the mets last weekend. Sweep in them. At city field would turn over the page to shabas ravine yet. Max sure on the mound versus carlos kuranda in this pitching matchup. I'm all over this thing. Dodgers in a victory and that affair at the new york. Yankees are riding high right now. You go from july to august and potential. See what happens in september. They fly down not only boston but also tampa bay rays in the american league east division. I'm going with the yankees in this. When they take on the minnesota twins first pitch is at seven. Oh five eastern speaking of that. I'm also looking at the white sox in the raise this will be a stellar matchup michael walker lucas gio lido in the pitching matchup. I liked tampa. i liked to chicago. White sox both with good offenses and pretty solid pitching staffs. I'm taking the under in this one. Under with the white sox the raise that game number three for us. Rob him out takeout. Though it's time for trash talk twitter your chance to trash anyone or anything in major league baseball this week for trash talking.

That's gonna scare the pants off your next thing you know you know. They're they're sitting at a really good position. Sixty four fifty six and they have had outstanding performances out of a bunch of guys in the bullpen. And i don't think many people have heard of and the other thing that's really been outstanding. They've been anywhere from two to seven in the major leagues runners in scoring position batting average Lot of clutch hits and this ball club. And i think that's The bullpen and the questioning has been really good big reasons and also the Starting pictures come around too..

Shortstop is unequivocally been the best player in the national league when he's been on the field this season but what does that mean for the padres as a team. Well it's hard to figure out but the padres have been a fairly average offense even has been healthy this season middle of the pack in the nfl and runs extra base. Hits and home runs though there. Strikeout-to-walk rates are elite. Don't really jibe with the talent on the roster. In fact as of august sixteenth the padres were just forty seven and forty two in games which totti's appeared a five twenty eight win percentage and twenty and twelve games. He missed a six twenty five win percentage. No-one here's singapore are better off without tease. It's just a fun. Statistical oddity only seem to get in baseball it also thinking but which players have been a part of the most victories this season not the best players necessarily but the ones whose teams have won the most in their outings. No surprise with the league's best record the giants on the top two spots at san fran. One two thirds of mike you stransky's one hundred games played but number three on that list switch teams during the season. As a brewers willie adamas went from tampa to milwaukee and has seen his teams go seventy five and forty in his presence now. Hopefully totti's can stay on the field over the season's final six weeks to. I don't know maybe.

"Bacon wear now beppe. They won the division last year and the shortened sixty game up covert season but again the problem with the age that they had an early playoff exit. Right people keep them you know. They want a lot of games regular season games over the last four five years. They've been formidable but doesn't translate to the postseason. How important is it this year. You know to a win the division again. Because you don't want to get in a wildcard right when you play one game and season could be over book. Be make a run in the playoffs. Yeah and you're right. I think they had teams that. Were kind of one dimensional. It was the home bradtha strikeout and this year. You see now that martinez here olsen lowry harrison i mean andrews these guys use the entire feel. Yes they can hit. Home runs also gets through at home runs but he's been gone the opposite way a lot. He's changed the way guys. Play him at shift used to be imminent but now they have to play them straight up so now we have five guys wanna spend how to stay inside the ball and using our ballparks. You have to play them straight up which gives them opportunity now to get the whole like normal and so. I think that it's a totally different team with speed. The defensive been solid Year so not really worried about that side of ball. Pitching has been great all year. We were learning about the offensive side which was like i said anemic but all of a sudden you got larry using the whole field. You got mark using the whole field. You got gums. Who can hit the ball out the yard and use the entire field again. You've got mark and harrison. These guys know how to play. They stay inside the ball and they make solid contracts so different team that we've seen in the season i going to say. Yeah you know if they get to the wildcard they probably be in and out. But now that what i see and collectively six seven guys. That lineup stressed that lineup out and make the pitcher work but now have an idea and approach to where they go up and understand what they're trying to do. It's a different team. So i might to see how they do. They get in the playoffs. But i just believe that from what i'm seeing right now. That's gonna go a little farther than they did in the past i. His name is bip roberts. Thanks for the insight. The former major league and of course baseball analysts would nbc. sports bay. area my body man. Thank you for joining us man. We'll talk to you sue. Hey my pleasure. Thanks for having me. You'd be safe to take care of yourself. It's time for the pocket protector. Centrum the analytic numbers. You need to know well. Maybe anthony masterson is his name. Bs analytics is his gay. What do you got for me. Anthony with the first ever major league baseball game to played in the state of iowa this week the field of dreams game between the yankees and white sox at the site of the academy award nominated film in dyers ville. I feel it's appropriate to give the hawkeye state some love. Did you know that. Even though this will be the first regular season game there was an exhibition there. Back in one thousand nine hundred forty two between the white sox and cubs the druid then exhibition record. Eight thousand people to the small town of fort dodge six hall of famers iowa home including legendary cub cap anson arguably the best players entire career spanned the eighteen hundreds compiling over thirty four hundred hits and a career average of three thirty four. It also includes the heater from van. Meter bob feller who's fastball is still talked about in legendary ways. He led the league in wins three straight years from nineteen thirty nine and nineteen forty. One spent three years serving in the armed forces in world. War two then came back and wins. Two of the following three seasons for his hall of fame career ended in nineteen fifty. Six here are a few iowan superlatives. Most homers how to twenty-eight most war wins above replacement. that'd be anson. Ninety four point. Three one of the highest marks of all time most stolen bases hall of famer fred clark. Five hundred nine most strikeouts. No surprise feller. Two thousand five hundred eighty one highs pitcher war not feller hall of famer red faber sixty seven point seven lowest era. That would be tornado. Jake weimer for the cubs to three mark in the early. Nineteen hundreds now. Tony watson and michael waka are the two most notable iowans in the big leagues in twenty twenty one but the hawkeye state in its history will be on full display among the cornfields was a big week in the big leagues for is it fair and now from. Mlb bro dot com. Here's jr gamble. Jay are the metro coups along all season on the strength of their starting pitching but the hitting was suspect and most people outside of new york new. That team would eventually fall out of first place in the nfl east. Is it foul boys fair to say that at two and a half games out of first place behind the phillies and the braves and no sign of how common that the mets probably won't even make the playoffs fair. It's been a great run for the mets led by the unlikely lip. Production of marcus. Stroman and taiwan walker where filled in like aces in the absence of jacob degrom. But it wouldn't matter bis team had. Maddox glavin smokes. The fact of the matter is they can't hit. They had an opportunity to bring kris bryant and instead went the strikeout. Prone hobby bias. Let's be honest. Michael conforto dominic smith. They've been disappointment and lynn door has been a disaster. He's had one of the worst i. She is in new york by a big time for agent that i can remember every move. They make and spelled disaster with this offense. Philly has a chance to do the playoff dance for the first time with bryce harper. I doubt they've relinquished. That opportunity to this. Mets lineup doesn't even have anyone who can hit consistently as man andrew mccutchen atlanta was. Everyone's preseason pick to win that division and even without superstars kuna who toys right. Acl in july. They have enough talent to overtake a division. Which in honesty is one of the weakest in baseball. The mets need a miracle or barry bonds in his prime in knipe is happening. This ship sinking rush into more money. So it's time for betting on the basis with dave guests guy love that money that money robber bouncing all the way around the diamond here last week. A little choppy but promise. We'll rebound today. Dodgers and mets from queens uptick in l. a. Julio real thirteen and three year ray of three forty one. It seems like when la goes out to the national league west. Have many problems. So i'm taking l. a. In that affair. San francisco in colorado. This is from the bay area. That's a nightcap. Doesn't seem like san francisco wants to lose any time. This season the pace that right now in the national league west. I'm taking the home team in that affair. And then for the american league set of things. I'm taking tampa bay at minnesota raise right now in a dogfight in the american league east standings. It seems like everyone is chomping at the bit if yankees yet the red sox the trump blue jays have caught fire as of late. I'm taking.

I think that they were on the off season. You know so. Many people thought that they were to be a team. And the white sox had a lot of juice and that in the al central people thought the white sock could would be there as well but the twins are really built to win now and you know the pitching was was always going to be a question. Mark like every team by the way pitching always going to be an issue but the pitching was kind of the one weakness but man. I did not see them. I mean getting out of the game slowly as they did and then just never been able to recover and that that to me that there were high expectations in minnesota to me. That's that's the biggest disappointment. The biggest surprise to me is shohei ohtani. I look we got a tip. Our caps to guy. I mean we. We've never seen anybody do anything like this. We were on the set going crazy last night. John smoltz myself only when he hit home. Run number thirty six four sixty three feet. I mean you know even multi state because some hoping for the longest. Has you know. There's a big. There's a big group of people who think he'd be better off being a closer if he's going to go hit every day but because they just don't you know the preparation that it takes to be a starter you know. A lot of people thought the hitting was just going to be too much. But even john i mean he cop last night he said look i was wrong and he said this is what this guy's doing is truly amazing. And i know a lotta people with. Oh babe ruth. But but what babe ruth did compared to what it. It's it's really night day. I mean this guy throws a hundred and he can turn around one hundred miles an hour and he's having so much fun doing it and you know i think we really gotta just kinda soak this in because we have never seen anything like this and you know. It's it's unbelievably special for him. It's probably no big deal because he's done in his entire life ever since you know as long as he's been planning over in japan but to come here and do this against the you know the best players and compete with the best players in the world i mean and be dominant starting pitcher and oh by the way one of the best hitters in baseball leads the league in slugging and homers.

What do you got for me. Anthony with the trade deadline looming on friday. It's time for front offices to decide whether they're planning for baseball or golf. Come october comey thinking about some of the greatest deadline acquisitions and mlb history. Did you know only two players ever hit twenty plus homers for their new team after coming over and july trade mark. Maguire nineteen ninety-seven. The year before he broke rodriguez record. Hit twenty four for the cardinals but jd. Martinez blew him out of the water in two thousand seventeen going from detroit to arizona. Crushing twenty nine home runs in that time including four homer game at dodger stadium in september of that season. Also don't forget. Manny ramirez finished fourth in nl mvp voting in two thousand and eight after playing only fifty three games for the dodgers. Yes is twelve. Thirty two opie. Was that good on the mound. Was there ever a better deadline. Acquisition than the for the brewers in two thousand eight coming over from cleveland. So you went eleven into with a one sixty five. Era in seventeenth starts from milwaukee with a league leading seven. Complete games and three shutouts leading the brew crew to their first playoff berth in twenty-six years now time will tell anybody switching teams. This year will have that type of impact. That was a big week in the big leagues. Four is it fair and now from. Mlb bro dot com. Here's jr gamble. Jr is if foul or is it fair to say the dodgers should give up on. Trevor bauer returning this season and go after norm like max scherzer if they hoped to repeat as world series champions fair any hopes that the dodgers had trevor bauer returning before the play offs or even seasons end is dashed with the postponement of his recent court hearings. Nearly a month after the last pitch for the los angeles dodgers bauer appeared in los angeles superior court friday for a civil hearing in which was to contest at temporary restraining. Order filed against him by twenty-seven-year-old san diego woman and the pitches representatives were to review and defend him against sexual assault allegations. He won't be seeing a courtroom again until august so with that in mind. And the dodgers slugging it out with san francisco and the san diego padres for the division. They are definitely short. An ace in the rotation and over the long haul. It could dead their chances of repeating as world series. Champions if max scherzer is truly available the dodgers have no choice but to grab him up. He's probably an upgrade from bauer. If not at least as equal and he's battle-tested and the world series champion. Imagine shirts pitching on a team as talented as the dodgers. He's actually the perfect peace especially for the play offs because without bauer officers. The dodgers at hoping and praying for world series repeat and. I don't see it happening money into more money. Now it's time for betting on the basis with dave guests that money that money. Hey rob thank you very much a handful games. I'm looking at one in particular angels in as this game taking place though in anaheim patrick sandovol starting this ballgame the important note. He's coming off his last performance which he went eight and a third innings of no hit ball. Opposing side is crisp acid ten and three with a three forty six. Era omitted the angels in this one. Matchup put divisional opponents. Some taking the halos in this affair with patrick sandoval on the other one. I'm taking a peek at the san diego. Padres there at home against the colorado rockies. Rock is one of the worst teams at all major league baseball but they have a mere eleven wins on the road. This season. thirty seven losses ryan weather's versus john gray in that pitching matchup. Of course we stayed in the national league. West dodgers diamondbacks arizona's godawful the season. In fact going this ball game. Forty games under five hundred. I'm taking the los angeles dodgers in the victory in this when the spite fact. Mookie betts has been banged up cody bellinger batting sub. Two hundred they have enough offensive firepower in the pitching staff has been tremendous. La in the victory. When rob was the newspaper columnist he lived by this motto. If i'm writing i'm rippin.

Junior is he goes far beyond traditional triple crown categories however he's tops and opie s a tick under eleven hundred even better than any of might trout's best seasons by the way his. Opiates plus one ninety five. A steady takes into account ballpark and league. Where league average one hundred and each number above or below is a percentage meaning. He's ninety five percent better than league average. This season is only surpassed by guys. Like jami trout tomi and maguire in the al and the last twenty five years. And what's even more impressive is the fact that he's a complete power hitter at such a young age in a full season. There's only one other player twenty two or younger to hit at least three. Twenty-five have an ob bp of at least four twenty five and slugging percentage over six fifty all numbers. Vladi junior hits at this point. That player ted williams in nineteen forty one. Yes the year. He hit four zero six and shohei might steal all bank and rightfully so but if he somehow falters in the second half. Don't be shocked if flighty junior garners much more. Mvp consideration going forward was a big week in the big leagues it or is it fair and now feared shadow. League dot com mlb insider jr gamble jr is if foul or fair to say that the mets can tread water without their ace jacob. Degrom fair even without jacob degrom who will be needed in the playoffs. The mets can't survive with taiwan walker. And marcus stroman throwing lights out as they have all season. The mets offense is pretty inept. Outside of peter lonzo and adding a proven that like chris. Bryant's can only help them in the national league east there's reportedly a bidding war between the washington nationals and mets but if i'm bryant i definitely want to come to a first place team that desperately needs me to remain in first place. Washington hasn't been consistent all season long and they seem to need a lot more than solid back. As far as the mets go a reliable all star hitter added to the mix is all they really need. The pitching is solid in bryant. Only twenty nine. it can still rake. He hit thirty one homers in two thousand nineteen and sixteen homers and forty eight. Rbi which would put him. Second on the mets immediately so detroit for him as a no brainer. Only problem is the cubs will be looking to fleece the mets are in a position of power right now and don't have to make a move but if they do probably have to give up some top prospects including mlb bro khalil league. It seems like a perfect match. For the mets end brian he'd probably be revived playing in a new town. Get it done money into more money though. It's time for betting on the basis. With dave gas guy that money that money rob what is up. Man's been along time. Let's get right into first things. First on friday night at the san francisco giants and the pittsburgh pirates pirates of the worst teams in all of major league. Baseball the giants. It looks like they're not going anywhere. Nationally west division is up for grabs the giants dodgers and of course the san diego padres on taking the home team the giants and this one will crow going for pittsburghese one in five this season with an ira at six twelve. Speaking of the dodgers they have dominated the colorado rockies season. David price is on the bomb. Friday night first pitches at ten ten eastern. I'm taking the dodgers and this one hands down. The dodgers should have their way this entire series as well against colorado and then on top of that the chicago cubs they get things underway a little bit earlier on friday in the windy city gets arizona diamondbacks zag gallon goin for them. One in four the season you're at three eighty six davies going for the home team in this one ariza's nearly thirty games under five hundred on the season. Some pound the cubbies and that one as well the next time for trash talk twitter with with your chance to trash anyone or anything in major league baseball. This week tries to come from at robert tino fifty three any tweeted meat is. I'm a yankees fan. I trashed cashman. He has failed to produce a chip while the red sox have retooled rice at one. Dry ice i to last last two. I suddenly not with throttling steps on athletic players. Stanton will be here making lula until the second coming. If you want to be featured in ordinary trash talking. Hit me up all my twitter at rob parker f s one. When rob was a newspaper columnist he lives by this motto. If i'm writing i'm rippin. Let's bring in a writer and broadcaster older new now. Let's welcome into the podcasts. Russell dorsey buddy of mine. A friend of mine. Who is the chicago cubs beat writer for the chicago sun-times. What's up bro. how you man. I'm chilling chilling. Good to hear from you could see i. It was always good to give a text for my guy midler and now Doing well how are you. I'm doing great. And i can't wait to see you in saint louis on top it up and eat and catch up. But let's talk about those clubs that you cover and going into thursday night's game wednesday night's game in saint. Louis there were tied with the cardinals. Both have forty seven forty eight right gertz where all the cubs dirt tied for. Third plays eight games allowed. Is this team on the brink of collapsing. Or do they have a little energy left that maybe they can make a raw well. I think this is the calm for the storm. I think this is one of the season where everybody pretty much knows. What's going to happen They were in first place for a while. Rob like they. They had a good team. That you look at that lineup. All paper you lie. This still superstars in this lineup. But at the same time no they had that eleven game losing streak and that's really where that seats in you know. We're in the tank. And so with that deadlines coming up it kind of worked out for president You can look at it and say all right. We can use this to read to a little bit retool on the fly maybe have some money to spend an off season at turn things around over the next couple of years but it feels like this is the end for this. Group is currently a simple and you talk about the trade deadline which is next friday. July thirtieth and john peterson was already traded right. I mean that wasn't signed wasn't it. Was that the the stores in business. Oh yeah absolutely. I think that was the the that warning shots of the rest of the league lie. Hey jets phone is on. He's willing to make some calls. And so you look at it. And say are who's could could be traded so that that trio by brian. Rizzo all those guys are last year. They're deal so obviously. Those guys are all on the table. I don't think by at and rizzo go anywhere but bryant with what he's been able to do. Bounceback season is versatility. That's guy a lot of contenders to have on their roster in craig kimbrel who's come back to being the closer that he's proven to be or allow hall of famer. He's done well. After the bounceback added point twenty is really showing that he could be that elite guy against so. That's another guy site could bring back. You know a decent bit of value for the cubs as they looked reach doors. Thing was i. I just get the sense that chris. Brian is the guy definitely that will as as that That he's valuable to some teams had to put money on at say that chris. Brian is probably the guy and they gets moving. I think there's been a misconception over the years that kris bryant didn't wanna be a cup because of who is agent is and all i. He's one of my favorite. Athletes were favorite players to cover. Good guy down to earth. Maybe one of the most humble supersize you'll come across but the feels like that time has come and good progressive. He can stay healthy and goes somewhere. He's still gonna be that force at the blade for a long time. It's only twenty nine years old so but does feel like this. Is that time for chris where it was to get an opportunity to go play continued. It's you good afternoon. Would you like to try a free sample of our double fudge brownie. Sure that's very good. I'll just take one more just to be sure. Yep still very good. Some things never change like never being able to take just one free sample and geico. Saving folks. Lots of money on their car insurance macadamia nut. I taste take one more. Yeah i thought so. Fifteen minutes could save you. Fifteen percent or more fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percents or more. Is that shakespeare. it's geico i. Yeah that's shakespeare from one of his unpublished works. Which be not for awakening may give it the other batteries for fifteen minutes. Could save you fifteen percent toll more. No it's from geico. Because they help save people money. Well i hate to break it to you but geico got it from shakespeare geico. Fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more. Our guest is a store see. Of course he covers the chicago cubs. Chicago sun tonto. Second year on the beat for the Sometimes and. Let's talk about by says. Rizzo who you both mentioned of course along with brian. All free weird that all through these guys are up. Ranch is is usually. don't do that You know are they going to what about rizzo and by as the chances of them resigning or or do name move on and then a gut the whole thing. When they won the world series back people thought this was to be dynasty with the young nucleus that they had they got the one. And that's been it so. Is there a chance that those two guys could be gone as well. Well i think when we think about yeah we thought these guys are going to be together for ten plus years. It didn't work out that way. They won their idol. Which you know. That's always the goal they got to this point and didn't win. That would be the bigger disappointment but they have. And sometimes you know you've been covering sports not just baseball like you can't keep it. Everybody right as just the nature of the beast. So i think these guys. They got offered extensions. It wasn't to their liking. That's fair representation. Said no we're gonna hold out and those guys upheld out. Do i still think there's a possibility. Those two guys sign extensions. Sure it might be during the offseason. But i do think in some capacity especially rizzo It's older guy core mystical to plano light. You that's a guy that you think is going to retire but you never know in this business and i. It has shown himself to be one of the most electric players of the game. That's a guy that you're gonna wanna keep around for a little while. So i think there's an opportunity at some point to resign those guys. It's just deciding what their number is. And what the cubs are willing to go to lasting russ. I'm going to the white sox twins game on wednesday night in chicago. Who thought that the white sods would have the live team. That is running away with it and got some swag and you know a happened. Fawn a main. You wouldn't have been able to convince me that a few years ago that it wouldn't be cops in this position. How surprised you just that. The cubs are taken aback. Steve's or white saw. I saw the way the socks built this thing and they did it right. They got some buying from young guys. That did as we talk about. The coast did sign an extensive thoroughly. And those guys turned into stuck with them so they got those guys locked up the while. Ta signed an extent before he even took. He's become one of the best player of the game too so they have a squad over there. They just locked up lance lynn. Who's coming into been a really good piece of their rotation. So they did it the right way and they're going to be a fun team prone no doubt his name. Rosty man check them out on. Twitter stuff covers chicago cubs for the chicago. Sun-times one of my menotti's on very proud that my man appreciate reason number one thousand fifteen. Why major league baseball is better than the nba. Any nfl on tuesday night after watching the nba finals. Game six wrapped up. With the milwaukee bucks won the championship over the phoenix. Johns i was with a bunch of chicago sports writers and broadcasters and what we broke. Got an debate about the whole aid what a shock. No wasn't a shock. Baseball's hall of fame was revered. Everybody pooh-poohed the basketball hall of fame. We didn't even really up the pro football hall of fame. It was all the debate was all about the baseball hall of fame. Names were being thrown our stature be drawn out who deserves to be an. And that's the point is that there's really only one hall of fame that people care about and these weren't even just all baseball riders these sports writers and broadcasters who cover all the sports and the biggest obey the biggest pushback biggest noise were about baseball player and where they fit in as far as making it to the hall of fame all he had one trump card of all those knuckleheads.

It seems we may have reached that point with one vladimir guerrero junior this season as of tuesday morning. He's thousands of a point behind. Michael brantley for the lead in batting average though.

They'll stay with their families dressing up. Do to do for a young guy what you're saying. What's the all star game still special like every chance. You get to be a part of this for you. Never once like this moment for brandon opportunity. Come here and celebrate with family over friends represent the yankees are fan. Base is something that i never once a grand. Never wanna miss.

Protector central the analytic numbers. You need to know well. Maybe anthony masterson as his name be analytics. What do you got for me. Anthony the twenty twenty one. All star game is here with forty two first timers on the league. Rosters a new record. It feels like the league is turning over a new leaf the faces of the game in each league. Guerrero junior and fernando tatis. Junior are both twenty two. While two way unicorns shohei ohtani just turned twenty seven flat. He could become the youngest player. Ever tip for the triple. Crown will not become the first player since chuck klein in nineteen thirty two to lead the legal homers and stolen bases. It's also time to look back. Were the first half of two thousand twenty one race and of historical context. The twenty three point eight league. Strikeout percentage is at an all time high continuing a trend. That's been going his direction for the last decade or so each. Mlb game on average nearly eighteen combined strikeouts per game also an all time high even though strikeouts are on the rise so is the long ball at two point. Four home runs per game in two thousand twenty one. that's the fourth highest mark. The sport has ever seen the. Al has won seven straight all star games tied for the third longest streak by any league. Ever but the last on the all star game was in denver. We saw twenty one combined runs the most in all star game history with these performance of otani. Both starting has a pitcher and leading off as a hitter. Let's just say it'll be a safe bed. We won't see a repeat performance of one thousand nine hundred eight chosen for baseball fans. Take game we love. Hello everyone this is jones win. I hope everyone enjoyed the all star festivities speaking of which i wanna touch on that real quick. Now it's just mopping. But i enjoy baseball. All star festivities more than any other sports. The essence at a game of baseball rid itself of excitement. Which leads me to the home. Run derby speaking. On 'sensitive gang who in the best players are usually synonymous in baseball. I like other sports. West players might be considered more specials. I like the phrase they use in boxing were referring to the knockout punch as a great equalizer. Which in fact is what the whole run is to baseball now as exciting as the homer derby as the real prize is is the actual all-star game for transparency purposes must admit i did prefer hope field advantage for the world series from the law. But it is what it is ain't tripping because also unlike other sports baseball's all-star game is a real game. Dad brings up that phrasing as the game it allows for both sides to play a legitimate game with the very best of the best when not saying legitimate. I'm referring to be able to play the game full speed versus going through the motions. Now gotta give a shout out to pete alonso for becoming the third player since kid. Ken griffey junior. And you're winning is to win back to back home. Run derbies same. Goes for the american league for winning the all star game. We've had some incredible storylines this first half of the season. I'm excited for what the upcoming trade deadline has in store and the remainder of what's left on this historic campaign bringing the closer here's why. Lv is better than the nfl or nba and it isn't even close number. One baseball is better than the nba. And the nfl man. Oh man let me tell you. Coors field did not disappoint in the apartment at the all star game. Man of food was so good. A like a pig. But i'm gonna give a special shout out to coors field for their hotdog. Oh my god. I could not believe it. I had an all be foot long hot dog on a warm bon with sauerkraut and mustard. I definitely needed a cigarette after that. It was at good my goodness you don't know how dogs on always created equal. You go places. But i baseball. There's like a hot dog out of baseball game. I don't i don't know people will hotdogs.

It's time for the pocket. Protector centrum the analytic numbers. You need to know well. Maybe anthony masterson is his name. Bs analytics is gay. What do you got for me. Anthony all star rosters were announced this past weekend. It any surprise that shohei ohtani made headlines again. He became the first player in. Mlb history voted into the game as both a pitcher and a hitter. Oh and will be competing in the homerun derby in denver as well just absurd stuff thirty. Four first-time all-stars as of the reserves announcement. This past sunday pushes the total number of all stars. Mlb history to one thousand nine hundred and to making show his achievement even more amazing in my opinion even though there are only two rookies currently on the roster youth is definitely served as vladimir guerrero junior at twenty two became the youngest player to be the league's leading vote getter by the fans and the youngest to start at first base since george boomer scott in one thousand nine hundred sixty six in the other league fernando totti's junior also twenty two his twenty seventh home run a monday night pushing his at bat per home run ratio to a tick over nine. That is the lowest by any. Nfl players in some guy named barry bonds. Back in two thousand four. He'll get his first. Start on tuesday at coors on the other end the yankees are all this cabin as era over twenty two twenty two in his last nine outings pushing his season era to four point seven one. That's the highest by any all star pitcher in fifteen years even with chapman slide. Baseball's best will be fully on display in denver next week taiwan walker of the mets didn't make the all star team despite basically carrying the pitching staff this season especially as jacob. Degrom has missed some starts with nagging injuries. Walker kept the mets in first place in the national league with dominant performances and which he had gone deep in games. Jr is it foul or fair to say that walker was a clear all star snob in twenty twenty one fair fair ball. I'm not one to complain about all star snubs because every year. There's someone who gets off. That is probably more worthy than someone who was put on usually from a very bad team just to satisfy this ridiculous role that everyone must be represented but taiwan walk up. The mets has clearly been a top-five pitcher probably in baseball season. In addition to that he's been the mets most consistent in available pitcher as jacob. Degrom has been in and out with injuries at miss some starts. The mets didn't miss a beat because of walker who was currently top ten. Era and wins for team has been offensively in that so we have seen with each of his starts. If you have is that he has been pitching under pressure the coming through every time. And he's the workhorse going seven innings often and he's been a big reason as anybody even to graham who can't get past five innings that the mets are in first place. It's almost a disgrace. That walk has been overlooked especially considering. He's an nlp. Bro and black pitches are as rare as mlb gain with no one strikes out. There's so many young kids of color pitching. Aau right now would be so inspired to see him on the mound for the mid summer. Classic and boy does taiwan walker deserving the other pitchers selected have decent numbers as well. But we all know that walker along with his partner. Marcus stroman had been the saving grace for the first place mets. And it's sad that his aerobics are being overlooked. Ain't.

Bs analytics is his game. What do you got for me anthony. I know people keep talking about shohei otani. But i really don't think we can talk enough about what he's doing the season it's made even more crazy by comparing him to his peers. Let's pitching surpise. Great obviously to fifty eight. Era fifth in the american league. Better than garrett. Cole and tyler glass now. His strikeout percentage of thirty three point one percent also fifth better than lucas g lido opponents hitting one eighty eight autumn. Better than yu darvish including an absurd. Oh eighty-six against his splitter as a hitter easily not only to show. Hey lead all of baseball extra-base hits he's only behind vladi junior and fernando. Todd s- junior opie and slugging. Going deeper he leads the league in barrels and barrel rate and his average exit velocities only behind guys like judge vladi a kunia and machado while his heart hit percentage. The number of it's above ninety five miles. An hour is only behind judge. But that's not all. He's one of only three players this season with twenty homers and ten steals joining totti's and kunia and he's a sprint speed of twenty eight point nine feet per second. Anything above thirty is considered a lead faster than guys like what airfield cedric mullins and trevor story. Plus he'll be the first japanese-born player and first pitcher in the homerun derby in a few weeks in colorado. He's a unicorn he's captain of the varsity team. He's literally doing all money into more money. Now it's time for betting on the basis with dave guess guy love that money that money rob. We got some interesting games over the weekend.

This week's trash comes from the bronx. Da ro annex from 'em brown at pro meal one six one and he is not happy with google gate and he tweeted me. This the yanks got scammed by garrett cole for three hundred twenty four million dollars no sticky stuff. Now he's back to who he was in pittsburgh and i'm pissed if you wanna have your trash on the podcast. Hit me up all my twitter at rob parker f s one. When rob was a newspaper columnist he lived by this motto. If i'm writing i'm rippin. Let's bring in a writer. Broadcaster older new i. Now let's welcome to the program brandon. Carr who is a content reporter for mlb bro dot com and. He has a piece on the website today. July first of course is bobby bo. Nia day brandon. Welcome to the podcast and tell us for all the people who don't know why today is bobbi baena day. Could they say it's a special day especially people of color for outsmarting a million getting one over on the man so bobby bruyneel Back in nineteen ninety nine. He was old. I'm gonna say almost six million dollars. But due to the mets being involved with bernie madoff find schemes. They didn't have the money to pay them so basics like oh man we just work a deal get you away from us man you over one point. Two million dollars Starting in twenty eleven for twenty four years and we give you eight percent interest rate or whatever so they use thinking you know the cost on price inflation or whatever may be down. I mean i'd be up or whatever so it's like a gamble and he's like you know what i think they're doing. Whatever long story short how. He's one of the mets are highest. Paid player still. He hasn't played baseball for the nineteen ninety nine. So it's a gorgeous day for black baseball players. It is crazy that the mets could make a deal brandon where they owe somebody five point nine million and instead from twenty eleven to twenty thirty five. I mean this is twenty twenty one. He still has fourteen years and on july first year. It's going to get one point nine million dollars a year. I who who in the world could have come up with this idea when you when you do your research and you were writing your story about this. Did you scratch your head and say how did this happen or give all products to say about it here but which is agent. I think his name was like a demon gobert. and hopefully. that's his name and He he had coding office and he was just working out in the negotions. Whatever with the organization he was like you know what compensated with here and he was down for the for payments. And at the time you know it was it's not really new for players of that magnitude and a half of furry payments. But like i said he was like you know what i'll take it. It is what it is. I have the money for the future. Honey right now has some money. When i'm old man and like i said this can't you're rich and he looked like agendas right now. So you gotta give it to him and give two days and there's no doubt about it. I may not see bobby boondi. Every so often at all star games and see him around always has a big smile on his face and for good reason because anybody who could broker a deal like this and and still have another eleven years to go is pretty amazing but thanks for that piece on. Mlb bro dot com. Check out brandon. Cars work on the site and brandon. Thanks for joining the podcast. We appreciate it. Sits jones in for baseball fans take on the game..
The Herd with Colin Cowherd
"anthony masterson" Discussed on The Herd with Colin Cowherd
"Analytic numbers. You need to know. Well maybe anthony masterson is his name be s. Analytics is his gay. What do you got for me. Anthony a no. We all got acquainted with being at home last year. But i think baseball twenty twenty one is taken it one step too far. Even the league win percentage on the road this season is it near the all time depths. We've seen some team performances. That are rewriting record books right now the colorado rockies who are very respectable twenty one and fourteen at home are five and twenty seven on the road that one fifty six win percentage would be the worst road record for any team in. Mlb history beating the nineteen thirty. Five boston braves. And we're only in the middle of june but the rangers orioles diamondbacks have all had losing streaks of at least fifteen games on the road. This season the first night mark has ever been reached by three teams in a single year and arizona. Especially my goodness. Struggled away from chase field. Their loss on monday in san francisco was their twentieth straight loss on the road. Just the fourth team to suffer that indignity and the first since nineteen sixty three mets along with the forty three philadelphia athletics. Only all time record with twenty two straight road losses. But on the other side after. Monday's win in chicago to tampa bay rays on a twenty four and ten mark on the road the best win percentage from an aol team since the one mariners tied a record with one hundred sixteen wins that season. We'll see teams get more comfortable in their hotels in the season. Second half was a big week in the big leagues so foul or is it fair and now from. Mlb bro dot com. Here's jr gamble jazz. Chisolm junior has been electrified fans as a rookie. Since opening day. He's been promoted as one of the new fresh faces of baseball with a combination of tools and charisma. That makes must see tv. But currently he's only in tenth place among national league's second baseman and the all star voting. Jr is it foul or fair to say that jazz should home. Junior is getting a raw deal. Fair ball jazz. Got the blue hair. He's got the stolen bases his co. Ps over eight hundred. We have named him over Be bro the bahamian blur. He's pure excitement. And just what. the game is looking for. Adam frazier in jeans. Agoura veterans day having great years hitting a high average but jazz with his eight home runs multiple digit steals. He definitely shouldn't be behind someone. Colton wrong in the national league voting for second basement systems on the base paths. The crowns get pumped. I seen him. He's very marketable. he's just what he's been waiting for. I have to blame the miami marlins franchise and derek jeeter for this kid. Not getting more votes. There's still unappealing to fans did not exciting. They are in last place last. I checked though. He had a little over seventy thousand votes in the leader. Ozzy obvious of the atlanta braves hitting sixteen points lower but he almost had three hundred thousand volts. I know there are other formidable candidates to play second base for master league in the two thousand twenty one all star game. But it's a tragedy that rookie jazz chips is not considered the top five second basement by the fans at this point and hopefully by the time seasons in the recognized their mistake or regardless stuffed ballot boxes a little maybe elevate his position but he has a long way to go into more money now. It's time for betting on the basis. With dave guess guy that money that money will be racing adler box here on a friday afternoon into the night time. I don't know what the hell's wrong with your new york yankees but they are laboring right now just two games over five hundred and they're gonna be slight underdogs against the oakland a.'s. But i will take the bronx bombers in this one. Take the yankees at home on the money. Line first pitch for them at seven. Oh five eastern dodgers right now will be in arizona. Diamondbacks arizona has been laboring the one of the worst teams in all major league. Baseball doesn't matter if they're sticky substance on his fingers or not. I'm thinking trevor bauer. And the dodgers are taking this. Once i got the brew crew and that affair in fact l take los angeles and the run line in this one as the victor other game. I want san diego padres at home. Chris paddocks on the bump paddocks. So far this season sub five hundred three and five of the year at four fourteen with the offense has been consistently good and of course the san diego padres had one of the better bullpens at all major league baseball little in the national league. I'm taking the padres. The dodgers and the new york yankees at home on friday. When rob was a newspaper columnist he lived by this motto. If i'm writing meridian let's bring in a writer. Broadcaster older new now. Let's welcome into the podcast. A longtime friend of mine. The great voice of the new york yankees on television the yes network. Of course he has a radio. Show the michael. Kay show in new york and he has a tv show called Center on the. Yes network. Mr michael kay. What's up my rob. How're you doing men doing great And for people who don't know mike. We cut our teeth in the newspaper. Business back in the eighties. We cover saint john's basketball together back in those days. Thank john's good. That's right watch. Jackson was on that team of you. Remember right oh yeah. The final four teams. No doubt but mike. Let's get to you. Have a new book. Which i'm excited to read. It's called centerstage my most fascinating interviews from a rod to jay z. Tell us about the book and why we should pick it up. Well i had a vocal cord surgery like two years ago. And i couldn't talk for six weeks so i was depressed from watching watching other people do my job so reading one of the books i read was howard. Stern comes again. Which was you know. He took snippets from a lot of the interviews. He's over the years on radio. And and you know you know just took out the best lines and i sort of thing. You know what we've done two hundred and forty interviews satter stage. The whole interviews are interesting. So i decided to take the thirty five best ones out of the two hundred and forty and then back stories leading in to the transcripts of the interviews like how the people were how to get them You know as a guest how they treated the people how they acted with me The back story and getting them as guest and You know there's some there's some really interesting stories that give you some insight on how people have evolved like you know. The part of the book rob yet interview was conducted in two thousand and three when he was at the texas rangers so it was kind of interesting to see some of his answers to some of the questions and you try to read between the lines and see if it foreshadowed anything that would have happened in the remainder of the next twenty years. So that that's what makes some of the interviews really really interesting. Yeah i can't wait. I've watched the show on the yes network and it sounds like it'll be fascinating especially with the people you have talked to but everybody knows your main gig is doing tv and doing the yankee games. Something that mike. I remember even when you were a reporter for the new york post. Always talking about what you wanted to do. You know and to have jal you had and now you're ready to might. This is my thirtieth year. It's not.
The Herd with Colin Cowherd
"anthony masterson" Discussed on The Herd with Colin Cowherd
"Well. Maybe anthony masterson name. Bs analytics is gay. What do you got for me. Anthony offense and baseball. This season like resistance is futile. The league wide average is the lowest since nineteen sixty eight. you'll be the lowest nineteen seventy-two and of course strikeout totals or an all time high continuing a decades long trend. But what hit the news. This past week was the outing of a dirty little secret. The men on the mound possess the use of foreign substances on the baseball nord increase spin and movement and take a picture. The league average spin rate on his four seam fastball. This year about twenty three hundred. Rpm's basically what indians starter. Aaron savali records his four seamer getting hit a a two fifty four clip this year again about average then take the dodgers bid rate maven. Trevor bauer who's four seamer. Goes up there to clip of over twenty eight hundred rpm over a hundred thirty. Rpm's higher than the next closest pitcher in the league. His four seamer is hit at a one forty three mark this year. That's a big difference. Now garrett cole clayton kershaw and bauer among others saw significant decreases in spin rates in their first start since mlb's announcement on the crackdown bowers. I start in atlanta. On june fifth. For example saw his spin rate on his fastball. dip over two hundred rpm slower than his yearly average to date could be coincidence. Sure but you can bet stat heads. And the commissioner's office alike will be hitting up the baseball savant game. Feed on bauer star. touring forward. That was a big week in the big leagues is it fair and now from. Mlb bro dot com. Here's jay jr gamble the scrappy. San francisco giants have surged past the glitz and glam dodgers and the new bree padres in the nfl west standings given a division three teams. That could legitimately win a world series. Jr is if foul or fair to say that the nfl west is the best division in baseball fan. Pat is a foul. it's still be american league east. it's a dog fighting that division. I get it the padres other fancy new toy with tatt. He's junior and company and they're exciting and media. Can't stop talking. About how tattoos junior compares with the all time greats like hank aaron and babe ruth at this juncture young career. But we get it when the new girl comes into the school the head. Cheerleader isn't the most sought after anymore but she's still a one. Let's not forget. She just not getting the same attention. The american league east remains the only division in baseball with four of the five teams. Have breakfast over five hundred. Nobody's a slouch slouching that division and even the last place orioles the only team in the division with the losing record debts found after three california teams in the national league west. There's a significant drop oil to the arizona diamondbacks and colorado rockies who let's be his spokes did just both caught awful right now and once. They start unloading veterans later in the season. The basically be automatic ws for anybody that plays them especially the powerhouse teams within their division. So i'll say the best divisional racing baseball. Yes it's in the top heavy. Nfl west but the best division in baseball remains the american league east with the yankees are fourth-place the red sox blue jays and lashes. Al champion raise obviously will underrated entering the season. The beast division remains the least as it's been for some decades. Now give a take a few seasons. Take out the papers tried. It's time for trash. Talk twitter wing with your chance to trash anyone or anything in major league. Baseball are this week's trash comes from at the smack and he tweeted me. This are nuff already with aaron. Boone and the yankees. I can't watch my team. The yankees need to make a move boon or the gm cashman need to go. The bronx deserves better. I'm tired of watching this and quote that came from j. d. at the smack on twitter. And if you want your tweet read on trash. Talk can hit me up on twitter at rob parker f s one. When rob was a newspaper columnist he lived by this motto. If i'm writing i'm rippin. Let's bring in a writer. Broadcaster older new i now. Let's welcome in craig. Calcaterra formerly of nbc sports. But doing his own thing these days he has a daily newsletter called cup of coffee. And we're gonna talk baseball with craig. Hey craig thanks. Welcome to the podcast. Thanks for having me and no doubt of so many different things to talk about couple teams to pepper you about and find. Let's start in the al leased and the tampa bay rays. Who just i mean. They traded blake's now. Everybody thought they do the towel. And they went to the world series a year ago and here we are in june and there in first place game and a half ahead of the red sox going into wednesday kanesa this or they really this good. They are really this good and and that's the thing about the raise. You mentioned them getting rid of lake now yet. He mentioned him They they got rid of charlie morton. It doesn't matter what the raise their the enemy of the next man up kind of team in baseball. You don't see that baseball very often year about that footfall basketball but the razor definitely that way. the depth of that team is absolutely incredible Tyler glasnost future cy. Young winner as the starter. So they're not gonna miss flakes. No richhill forty one years old. They're getting a new level out of him this year And then the real. The real power of this team is the bullpen. They are always five or six guys. Eat in five or six guys who are better than the top two on half the teams in baseball and this year for the first time in a long time. They're getting a lot of often to. They're getting a lot of power. They're they're They're getting on base at probably the best in the league if not the best. They're definitely up near the top solid team. The strongest team. Top to bottom in the american league this move to the al central. We all know the white sox. They survived that little storm with tony. Larussa mercedes and clubhouse not feeling that great about larussa calling out the young player. But i want to talk about the minnesota twins and what has happened to them. Byron buxton is coming back for them but when he went out they went straight down to the bottom. They're in last place in the al central even below two detroit tigers who are rebuilding. What happened there craig. Just across the board failure You know the starting pitching did not come through. J happens in a disaster. Matt shoemaker has been an even bigger disaster. Those were a couple of guys that really needs to step up their ace. Jose burritos he. He's good but he's not where they need him to be right now. The bullpen has been terrible. They've also been extraordinarily unlucky their record extra inning games. I don't have it off the top of my head but it's like really really bad. I think they've won one expert game out of something like eight or nine lost a lot of one run games. If anything has gone wrong for this team it has and like you mentioned buxton. He is distraught. That stirs the drink there. And he's losing him for so long Makes this lineup so much. Easier to pitch you. That a huge huge problem for them They're going to be a seller at the deadline at this point. I don't think they're going to be able to dig out of this hole. You're going to see someone like nelson cruz on the market and Just retrench ear a lot of talents. They're going to be fine again next year. Probably i think.
