00:00Well, Otani's got to top what he did last year for even to have a chance at winning

00:03the MVP again.

00:04Plus 145 Desotos, plus 550, the closest competitor there.

00:09Talk to me about Otani this year in that MVP race.

00:12So Otani's going to do the same thing as last year, but he may actually pitch this year,

00:16right?

00:17So we're talking about all the offense production plus the fact that he may be on the mound

00:21at some point.

00:22And even if he goes out there and he's like, okay, like he's not the ace, he's like, okay.

00:27If he's just okay, or above average, and he has 40 home runs and a hundred RBI is like,

00:32it's kind of like the Yoko's thing in the NBA, which is kind of just shoe him in to

00:35be the MVP.

00:36I don't have interest in that price locking up, uh, you know, money for six plus months

00:40at a one 45 place, just pressing on the spot that I'm going to go.

00:43The interesting option would be to go to something like LA David Cruz.

00:46His stolen base prop is 53 and a half this year.

00:49What happens if he goes for 60 stolen bases and has 30 or 40 home runs?

00:54Yeah.

00:55The Reds may not win the division, but at least we have some type, some level of excitement

00:57where we can actually make an argument for another player outside of Otani being unbelievable.

01:02So I don't like Tati said that price.

01:04I don't like Mookie bets.

01:05I would, I could reason myself to Acuna having a comeback season for the ages, even though

01:11he's not healthy, but it's a pretty tough market to break down.
