"But he got back in the swing of things by swinging a lot and was just like in the cage and working and seems to have solved something and came back out of that new man in the second half and also related to large new bar and dugout celebrations. He had a pepper grinder in the dugout that they would grind. This is apparently something that Andrew kisner started. It's a pepper grinder because you're grinding out every at bat. So that was why that was where they had the pepper grinder because that makes some sense. Okay. Also, we were informed that was Tyler pointed out large new bar Brian Johnson listener pointed out the brief season of Kramer Robertson of the cardinals who debuted at age 27. A lot of meet a major leaguers in this group here. So Kramer Robertson had two at bats and one chance in the field and in his one fielding opportunity he committed an error and then he was designated for assignment. Shortly after thereafter. So he's not quite moonlight Graham, but one official at that with an RBI, but has a negative .1 career war probably from that one error in his one chance. So hopefully he gets another cup of coffee at some point. That would be nice. And also, Zach Thompson, cardinals, pitching prospect who came up. He became the first cardinal to wear number 57 since the death of Darrow Kyle and it was appropriate because Kyle, of course, famous for his big bending curve ball and Zach Thompson also throws a big bending curve ball. So he got to inherit number 57. And then last cardinals nomination, Jeff Albert, the hidden coach who will not be back, apparently part of why he decided not to return is that cardinal's Twitter was mean to him. Very mean to him. Yeah, so according to John mozzarella, Jeff Albert had frustration, quote, about the frequency with which he took blame for the team's offensive struggles and mentioned the tenor of social media comments as a factor in that frustration. So Jeff Albert does not officially have a Twitter account, but he must have a burner in there somewhere. He must have, he's lurking, and I guess he did not like what he saw on cardinals Twitter, and so the team was prepared to offer a new contract to him, but he decided not to return and that was cited as a reason why. So, you know, people are pretty mean to hitting coaches when the team doesn't hit. It's certainly not always their fault, but cardinals, Twitter, was especially hard on Jeff Albert for one reason or another rightly or wrongly. And he took his leave and that was one reason why I'm sure that wasn't the entire reason, but that was a reason. Wow. Yeah. Now the cubs, so listener Arya pointed out that the cubs went 21 and ten against NL east teams and did not have a losing record against any team in that division and actually swept the Phillies in the season series. So 28% of the cubs wins came against NL east teams and that ended up impacting the play out phrase. So that's interesting. I did not know that the cubs owned the NL east. And also listener Nicholas nominated and we may have mentioned a bit some point, but he wrote for the cubs I nominate Christopher morell, who was such a delight. He always smiled and hugged opposing players every game when he came to bat he fist bumped the home plate umpire or tried to, some empires did not want to do that. And on top of a very successful season for a player who was not a top prospect being called up from double-A, he deserved some spotlight just for being the positive guy. He is. He also had a very fun case where he pinch hit homered in his first at bat and supposedly he called his shot in any earlier, two Wilson Contreras who had hit a Homer in his first at bat years before, so this was one of the many instances of players predicting something which happened so often that we don't discuss it that much anymore. So that was a fun moment. What do you think? If you were a home plate umpire and a better come to the plate went for the fist bump, would you leave him hanging or what? Oh man, it's so fraught in both directions, right? Because if you do it in a game that counts, right? Nelson Cruz took a selfie with Joe western the austro-hungarian All-Star Game. He had his phone in his pocket. We're not doing anything serious, right? But if you do it in a game that actually matters for something, you're going to be accused of biased toward the hitter, but if you don't, people are going to call you ground be, you know? And they might accuse you of bias, the other direction. So I think that the only answer you have in that moment is to immediately start doing your home plate chores. I didn't see it. Sorry I was cleaning the plate, you know? Like, I'll get you next time, but I won't. So it's a fraught situation. Yeah, it's tough. Being very friendly. Yeah. And he's putting them in a tough position by being so friendly. Right. I'm sure empire is appreciated on some level. Like players often not so nice to them friends often that's so nice to them. But they have to maintain some remove of some sense of impartiality and objectivity and if you fist bumped him and then you immediately fist bumped like the catcher and the pitcher, if you fist bumped everyone, then maybe you'd be seen as unbiased, but otherwise it's tough. Right, and then if you're like, you fist pump the hit, or you just sit at home run, and then you turn to fist bump, the catcher, and also the pitcher, they're gonna be like, what are you doing? That was terrible. I didn't want that to happen. We're not rewarding that. So I think that someone should pull the young man aside and be like, look, it is a nice thought. You're clearly trying to be, you know, like a generous, kind of coworker, sort of coworker, right? I'm like, I get it, but also it's like, you gotta not do that. They do have chit chat often, you know? Hitters will come to the plate and they'll go, you know, hey, how's it going? If it's someone who is been their home plate umpire before and I think that a whole book could be written about the relationship between catchers and umpires, right? Because they are at odds, but also have an appreciation, unique to each other about what it feels like to get hit in the face with a freaking baseball. You know, so they have, they have care and consideration, but also antagonism, so there are a lot of ways in which that relationship is fraught, but you have to at least allow people to maintain the illusion of complete divorce objectivity. Allow for that. I wonder if he helped grudges. I don't know whether he fist bumped just before his first at bat of the game or whether he fist bumped every time he came to the plate, but if he got rung up on a borderline pitch and he disagreed with the call, would he still fist bump the next time up, or if the umpire, if the previous batter had had a call go against him, would he still fist pump? I wonder whether he withheld fist bumps, just based on the situation or how the empire was performing in that game or whether he just turned the other cheek and fist bumped regardless. Anyway, interesting. Yeah. All right, we're up to the Diamondbacks, not a lot of on the field nominations here. I don't know whether they're weren't interesting stories or whether we just talked about them. I think we talked about some interesting Diamondbacks stories. They are perhaps over represented based on my proximity to the big league club.

"I mean, it must have been 5 feet high and ten feet wide, a pile of all these baby dolls, and then you just doused it with some dark red paint or scarlet looking, and so it just looked like all these bloody babies and it was such a powerful anti abortion message. And I know people were kind of upset because it was near the children's ministry and it was upsetting some of the toddlers and whatnot. But you know what? I say they need to know from a young age that we are pro life around here, you know? If I might give you a word basket of encouragement, that was one of my favorite pieces you ever did, tech. Well, I'm glad to hear that. And we did have to clean it up. Honestly, the red liquid was pig's blood. Oh wow. We wanted to make it as real and visceral as possible. And if you recall, it's in the hallway by the by the preschooler, like you said. And it's near the trash can, so it goes trash, recycling, and then there was the little sign that says, we are not garbage. Oh, I love that. Have you ever tried to follow von to where he lives? Just because there's something about that that is just kind of it's sticking in the back of my mind like, okay, he just he's a man of mystery. Have you ever tried to figure it out? I have. I've tried to play it cool where I'm like, all right, well, we'll see you tomorrow, and then I rush off to my Tahoe, turn the key, and then I look around and I can't find him. And sometimes I try and like, back away from him into the parking lot. I've also nearly been hit several times doing that. I've even asked the security guard. Can you tell me where Vaughn goes when he leaves? And they have it's like he knows where there's holes in the security cameras. That's crazy. He just slips right through. Maybe you could do what I hear a lot of stock is doing these days. You know, you put one of those Apple tags in some of the bottom of somebody's lunchbox is something you can see where they're going. That's right. For finding luggage and things like that, I should try that. Just slide it under the little cape lit thing on the sailor suit and see if I can figure out what is the back flap. Are you married? I have not. I have not been married yet. I'm sorry. You stumbled me up quite a bit there. I am still looking. Still looking..

"I mean, I just kind of want to go down to the cafe. They have a good cafe. You're not lying. Yes, a good cafe in, yeah. They have the wettest lettuce sandwiches. It's delicious. I can't figure out how to replicate it at home, but I don't trust it. But all that said, I think honestly, ally, what I would say to you is walk around and see what treats your eyes. Okay. Sometimes it can be harsh. Sometimes it can be like the painting of damnation that's near the men's room. I mean, it's pretty striking. It is an image of what I would consider to be almost like a doll, kind of wandering through hell. Because that dollar that person that became a demon doll didn't accept our lord and savior Jesus Christ of their heart..

"I'm talking about typewritten psalms and messages from the Bible. We're replacing all that font with you may be familiar with Leela lo font to kind of update the message from its severe times the Roman that we had up there previously. But we're trying to soften it and it is a message of course, but I think everything that we gaze upon is a message that our creator loves us. Isn't that right? And he's the best artist. And are those some I did want to ask you about Vaughn because it's not often that you see someone in a sailor suit both around twin hills. And then also what I would call not an unfriendly affect, but when I realized later is that I believe he doesn't speak English or maybe not as first language. So because I did say hello, good morning and he just kind of looked at me with a surprise look. So how did you all come to work together? My first international trip was to Thailand for vacation. And I met him there. He speaks very little English. A lot of people think he's my child, adopted or otherwise, because that is a child sailor suit that he wears. But he's not definitely has an eye. We actually have been, I know you guys are impressed with what we hang around the facility in the campus, but you would not believe the pieces that we have put in pastor Steve's house. And the pieces that we do to litigation and other reasons can't display yet that are just stored below the campus. Oh, wow. Oh, is that way okay, so is that Disney? I was wondering, where do all these pieces go when they're not on the walls? We cycle through a lot of things. We try to keep it fresh. I mean, aside from von and I, we have a series of facilities workers that do hang in level everything. You know, right now we're in the process of taking down the prayer quilt that's in the B building and replacing it with a piece that we've acquired that is not the Shroud of Turin, but its pieces of other shrouds, I don't know if you, if you were as old as I am, you might remember that there's some pictograms where you have to relax your eyes and see other things. These are actually pieces of the fabric, then you relax, yes, exactly magic eye. Thank you. You relax your eye and you'll see a close up on the visage of Christ. That is amazing, a crowd of shrouds. Well, and I like that he's always in a sailor's suit. I mean, he's nothing, if not predictable, but I was sort of curious about it, is he dressing for the job he wants? Or is he just trying to stand out? You want to know a secret? I don't know. Also yeah. He shows up every single day on time. I don't see him arrive. I've never seen him in a car. I've never seen the leave. And I don't know where he lives. Oh, wow. But I brought him home to Indy, and he debarked a pulling disembarked the plane with me. And disappeared. Shows up every single day. I have no idea where he comes from and where he goes but he shows up every single day, right on time. And I've never seen him speak a word of English. I don't know if he knows what I'm saying. We communicate in a certain way. And I think the work we do is proof of something higher than we can. Well, you mentioned tech, you mentioned pastor Steve. Is he an art lover? What kind of art does he have?.

"Yes, awesome honestly who are they now? Sorry, Esther Kathy is the founder of Chick-fil-A. And David green was the founder of hobby lobby. Their family, family, Christian family owned businesses and you may or may not know they do a lot of secret operations to for one of the better term liberate Christian art from the so cool. Oh, it's like Indiana Jones or something. In a lot of ways, yeah. Well, I love hobby lobby. I mean, it's full of wholesome activities and boy, do I love a Chick-fil-A? I can't get enough of their Chick-fil-A sauce. I don't know what's in there. It's crack. Well, we'll look out. You don't want to get addicted to it. I will say the hobby lobby has the cleanest public men's room you'll ever find. Oh, isn't that neat? And so tac, have you ever gotten to join those guys on one of their stealing missions? So I have not. But I will say you guys know that the fully clothed David that we commissioned for twin hills. Yes. I was actually flown to the quarry in Italy. We chose the marble and chose the perfect veining on the marble to match as close as we could to Michelangelo's David before we before we commissioned a fully closed version of it. So there's only the second time I traveled internationally. That is fantastic. And I love the choice kind of to put them in some cool street way, the drop crotch sweat pants and the tank top. I just thought that was like really showing, hey, this is a church that pays attention to history, but we're bringing it into the future. Absolutely. We wrestled with the outfits quite a bit actually. We were going to put him in a full uniform with him standing glass head would have been like a giants helmet..

"The lord will give you meat and you shall eat you shall not eat just one day of meat or two days or 5 days or ten days or 20 days, but a whole month until it comes out your nostrils because I want it to become loathsome to you. Oh, that is pretty funny. I mean, it's basically keto. Isn't that funny? God was like, I'll give it to you until it comes out your nose. So funny, God is hilarious. I love it when God does funny stuff. And then the other story was when Paul was preaching too long and some kid fell asleep up in the window and he felt so deep asleep that he fell out the window and died. There's another funny story and Mark 14, which I was not aware of, which is so weird because I read the Bible all the time about a guy who was following Jesus around and the guy was wearing his underpants, and when they tried to seize him, he fled, and he left the linen behind, so there was a naked guy. Oh, well, yeah. I mean, that can happen to anybody. And let's say the last one was, in first Samuel, the Israelites they lost to the Philistines in a battle and so they decided to take the arc with them, the ark of the covenant so that its power would protect them from the Philistines, but not only did it not protect them, but the Philistines captured and stole the ark of the covenant. Which would make you think that the ark wasn't that powerful, right? Right. But everyone came down with a bunch of tumors. The ash Dodds, the gaffes and the Philistines, they all were inflicted with terrible, terrible tumors, just God was given everybody tumors everywhere. If there's anybody that can make tumors funny, it's God. God was like, and you get a tumor and you get a tumor and you get a tumor. Yeah. I love a good whodunit. Knives.

"It's a treat and a treasure. Well, per huge, I'm joined by my co host. He's the youth pastor for our high school ministry called climax. It's gray Haas. Hey, three in one and one in me, Hallie. How are you? I'm so good. Blessed, how are you, my brother? We had so much going on around climax and my teens who came this weekend. You know, on Friday night, we had a party called faith based spelled like BASS like bass. Not the fish. That was confusing to some people. And we invited all the biggest Christian DJs in the greater Indianapolis area to come in spin. Oh, that's so cool. Did they have cool DJ names? Oh yeah, you know, we had DJ nicotine. Nick odemis, you know? He's an Irish guy. That was really cool. We had DJ wearable parable. He sold a bunch of Mitch. We had DJ Jersey bell. DJ WW JD. DJ, will you go to heaven dot com, which is cool. Because you could just check the link. And then the big finale Halle, we added DJ DJ NFT, who appeared as a hologram briefly until someone purchased him and then he just disappeared. Wow. I don't even know how that works or how that's possible. I know. And then, you know, I volunteered this weekend with my friend. I'm not sure if I've mentioned him. Yeah, this week was one of our CrossFit gyms. Does this awesome thing with an organization called traumatic lift? And it's a nonprofit that's specializes in healing trauma through lifting heavy objects rather than talking about them. Not talking about heavy objects? No, the trauma. You can talk about the lifts as much as you want. In fact, it's encouraged. But clay still recovering from a little skydiving incident. So he couldn't do much, but I stepped in and funny, it's because I have zero trauma in my background. Just no trauma. And I was able to set personal records in both the clean jerk and the power clean, which I think was super inspiring to people who were there who, you know, so many people are just so caught up in the past that they can not show up for the present and really lift. And I think I showed them how to do that, which was awesome. How was we, Kelly? Well, I've got a God thing to share. Really? What's up? Yeah, one of my daughters has been saying that she likes comedy. What started? The one who likes comedy and my husband lancelot and we've both, you know, we've been trying to keep an eye out for opportunities for her to use her comic sensibility..

"Well what have you thought of the The recent run of games right now for the saint louis cardinals. They have dropped four in a row including another one last night. But the to milwaukee the to we've seen with the dodgers will start with that. What have you thought. Well certainly the games in milwaukee were winnable games. And you're playing the game that's has now. What a fourteen and a half liters game lead in the division. You know you need to play well. In those games along was away from the team on paternity leave so they weren't full strength and the cardinals just unfortunately found ways to lose. And it's you know it's got to be frustrating for players to have games. That are winnable where they're ahead late and you know the bullpen can't get the job done and it's you know the two games against god you're so far it's for me at least had been a good reminder of the talent difference between the two teams i mean the dodgers are twenty eight games over five hundred whatever it is and you may not even win their division and even if the cartels make the playoffs if they were to play the dodgers as today would be the first wildcard. I mean you. Can't you know it would take a sucker punch to you know for them to be able to advance. The dodgers are just you know unfortunately a much better team than the cardinals right now albert pool halls. Another memorable moment at busch stadium. He seems to rise to the occasion. Doesn't he yeah. It was nice. It was a nice situation. Where of course he got a standing. Ovation is deserved into hit a home. Run off the lefty. Albert's of playing mostly against left handed pitching which is his strength is at this point in his career and for him to hit that no doubt about it home. Run to left feel was was a nice moment and you know you look ahead and say you know could albert help the cardinals in twenty twenty. Perhaps you know if they Do enacted designated hitter in the national league in You know they wanna left-handed match off the bench. Certainly albert could be that guy but you know the cardinals have other needs in their daily lineups that they have to address. It has to be more oppressed more pressing than just you know the nostalgia that bringing albert back to closes career would provide and it looks like adam wainwright We'll come back What what do you think. The the trickle down effect of that is for next year looking ahead at some of the minor league guys in her close and with what the cardinals have currently on the roster to be also the. I don't think there's any impact. Negative impact of adam wainwright returning. You know it's not as if the guys at aaa all beat the door down run. Don't pitch well for a while. And then now he's hurt Certainly matthew laboratories fish well and he'll be in the mix for next year zach thompson. Been a disappointment. frankly He was asked to take a big step. You know hasn't been consistent enough. So you know with the exception of liberty were there. Aren't guys in triple a. That are really going to be knocking on the door and experience. So it's not like wainwright's gonna take some wonderful prospects job opportunity away. Of course you know with the bumps in the road. For alex raise you know the certainty of him stepping into the rotation and contributing or are necessarily more questions now..

"I still think it's empty steals in in that. That's all you're getting. I don't think he hits better than i think. Max to seventy the rest of the way and no power to speak up. That was his first homer of the year that he hit this week. Thirty two ribs only fifty one run so it's literally empty speed but some people need that and a lot of people have a roster structure that they can afford that. They're so desperate for steals. Were you after nikki. Lopez it all on the wire this week. I was not for the same reason that we're talking about about how it's already been the goodness or you. Just he's just he's not a good baseball player and he's working his way back. He's gonna lose his job you don't think they'll find a way to keep playing him. I mean they will but it won't be full-time you don't think they'll send edward oliver saudi. Even though he's not on the team like they'll find a way to bring him up just to send him down yet. Just take my indices spot. Be so i can royals i if someone who has commented on every single one of my articles on van grass really the last three weeks. Fire dayton moore. Oh okay so it's not just my articles. They've infiltrated yeah. It's new for me though. They came over welcome. He's been doing it for like two or three straight weeks. Ever since about edward others get extent down for like done that alone. That alone gets me on his side. Because i i'm not complaining. I'm i i like it. Every time i turned to bit on dayton moore for positive. You know he was. He was a laughing stock for a while and then the success that they had. I mean you you can really only say so much. They did a great job with the bullpen building. The small ball team that they they kind of worked for the new era was was pretty good. you know. I still disagreed with some of the things they did. Let that stupid thing about leading off l. c.'s escobar and. We win games when he does not cause him like in his frigging coup seventy bp. Like get outta here. But i've come back around to the negative because of because a moves like the edward only various thing how silly it is to still be wasting time on my coin taylor or you know even somebody i have liked in the past like hunter dosier like what like what are we doing. There is not clearly at this point. Twenty nineteen fluke like a rabbit ball. Yeah but i mean. They signed him to a long term deal. Like i don't think they can just play him at third who's emmanuel rivera. I have no why. Edward only various not up and then that's even beyond the the dosier thing there were times that gerard dyson was playing pretty regularly that edward. Only granola kind of come. I said only at all in various you could have come up does your should be playing third and always plan right. I mean it's like what what is aware as house to prove in minor league. Says this i i don't know i don't i don't mean bogged down that we're talking about nikki lopez but yeah. I'm with you about not going hard. I put in token single digit bids in two weeks. If i get him cool. I won't because people will go crazy. They can bid their their high double digits that that'd be bore bidding. I wish you the best folks unless you're in my say i in my main. In one of my main event links it is one of the most competitive leagues. I've ever been a part of. And i say that because i got shut out on three of my bid claims in like the last week of august. Hey that yeah that. I mean that does speak like this week and i was like and looked at my team. Like hey house choice on my team. I thought i cut this any. I'm pretty sure. I taught him and i went and looked i was like oh my god i had. I had eight backup bids. Why would ask. How many had that's that in got. Shut out on three claims. That's why old. I mean in like it's it is a league with a bunch of really really good player phil too so Rob silver you know but like everybody is still working right now like every nobody has given up in this league except for like the guy in last place. Wow while while. I mean people are just been working hard to try to try to get back into the money which i appreciate and i love yet same time like hey guys. I needed someone to this week. And you and you wanted to take advantage of you know what can usually be a a peak buying time because people start running. Yeah yeah budget. Three dollar bids everywhere and he said up your game dog yet. My own the only thing i got was an eleven dollar a in wick tang and they. They did you dirty there. Yeah i got. I got myself. I have We have five teams in the top ninety which which is really really really tight. And it's going to be a wild race down to the finish there and You know i'm not as aggressive as yours. In terms of everyone bidding but a big chunk of the league is still bidding regularly putting out bids and and really really chasing folks so We'll see tj antonio for forty. One dollars i got lorenzen for thirty two which was way too high was five was the backup but i thought i thought with two saves including one on sunday. Then he might go crazy and i had the angle casteel who by the way only has one save since joining seattle. One of the five saves that they have so. That's why i felt comfortable cutting him even though really liked what castio did for me this year with Tampa bay and everything. I figure i might as well get somebody who can give me a couple saves Especially because bednarz one of my other ones presley's my main guy but yeah anyway don't know bog down talking about my team. Let's keep keep people in focus. Talk about tyler. This guy's having a banana season. But the only thing is i. Think the only people that are benefiting from our and l. only because the volatility of this season means i think it keeps getting cut in mixed leagues six homers in april. Probably miss some of those before people even starting to pick them up seven homers in may through july not each month obviously because that would be twenty one more homers and he's obviously not a liter and homers seven total in those three months justin and then five here in august all of which have come in the last twelve games where he has a fourteen thirty-five old. Ps he seven forty six in his first six games of the mind. He gets four righties in six game week this week. But it's burns would drift sandy santiago. Tara and zach thompson is the hot street from dune. Anything for you or is this another case of yati missed the goodness you might as well just let it.

Imagine chance wheeler ended up seven and thirty eight hits four runs a walk five ks or the problem with that is i. Don't think they'd let him go past six or seven. And now no he if he was no hitting the yankees absolutely not on. How many pitches though he hasn't gone stephen forever. Yeah he if he had over one hundred fifteen pitches and it was the end the seven. He's not coming out again. Matt harvey would trade a no hitter for his career.

They've got to win so far in the series as for walker even though he took the loss and gave up four runs over five and two thirds encouraged as he tries to get out of this funk. He's been in since the all-star break. I'm going to read direction. Honestly you know. I had the two walks hit ground balls through the hall and i thought that was able to. The home runs unusual all a similar something after last. Start any pitch really good. It's just the home runs. Home runs a couple of pitchers who made it out of the park. Yeah great danger.

"And of course, the ridiculous part of the polls I pointed out was that when you acquire a player, you don't get like there isn't an immediate transferal of points into your score. Like you bought a start in which there's a wide range of outcomes in which they could score negative 13 to 30 points that they could pitch a complete game shutout. So like it's not like you're getting a guaranteed 15 points. If that had been the case, I would have gladly spent $6. But that's not how it works. So yeah, so I just wanted to kind of tee off on that subject and kind of how ridiculous rob views many things. Many things, yeah. Would you accept a blowjob from Halle Berry for $12? Absolutely. Rob, rob, specialty is not understanding the Game of Thrones here. Here's the flayed man in the Game of Thrones. Well, I think, yeah, because I'm with you. I will subsidize winners or, you know, subsidized teams that I'm looking to prop up to win to kind of put down an opponent who I might see as more worthy, right? Right. I think that is the mind game that's Rogers doesn't get. He just wants to win the pure win every day all day. Go home. I'm just like, where are you going over $2 and like this? Because we also have bets going on, right? It's like, rob and I have a bet where he has to finish 5th or better. Like I'm basically giving him a non playoff spot. So like, if he finishes 6, then it's a push. If he finishes 5th or better than what? Yeah, 5th or better, 6 places a push for him. Based on my pre season projections. So like, my projection, my current projection is that rob will probably end up 6. But. He's acting as if he's already got her. I'm like, dude, you've got the second most points, but you're not even the playoffs right now. Like you've actually underperformed given how many points you've accrued to this point, and there's you're probably going to get beat by some teams that you beat in the first half. So like especially a team like John castle. So wouldn't it be a good idea to just end John capel before you can get to that point where he whoops your ass like just where he's kind of half assing it. You have the second half, but no, that's not how rob crab works. He's just trying to win a deal for no fucking reason. And what ended up happening, by the way, what happened? So Marco Gonzalez got shelled. So I wanted the next day. I wake up with John capel making a deal for pavetta and maeda, who just fucking dealt Sunday. I was both those starts. I mean, they both scored like 24 points in those starts. But what happened that morning was, I went and bought Robbie ray. I went and bought cranky. I went and bought Zach Thompson
