00:00
By the way, do you remember when the Mets were having issues there with their draft pick Kumar Rocker?
00:03
I don't know if he's going to be worth it.
00:05
I don't know if that arm is going to hold up here.
00:07
Well, he did make it to Major League Baseball.
00:09
If you can call it that.
00:10
Three innings pitch yesterday, seven hits, six earned runs, which included two home runs,
00:14
only three strikeouts, in a loss to the Cincinnati Reds 14-3 at the Great American Ballpark,
00:19
which typically is known to see a lot of runs.
00:22
How about seven of 18?
00:23
That means you have 18 runners in scoring position for the Reds yesterday, easily cashing in on some of those tickets.
00:28
I had a prop parlay yesterday on the Rangers where maybe Seager and Peterson could have done something.
00:33
They did absolutely nothing and they got crushed 14-3 yesterday.
00:38
Yeah, and Ellie, the other crews that I keep saying this tongue-in-cheek,
00:42
but he did switch to the Torpedo Bat, managed to go four for five, a double, two home runs,
00:46
seven RBIs as the Reds put up two touchdowns on the Texas Rangers.
00:52
So maybe there's something to it or not.
00:54
Look, I'll say this much on the Torpedo Bat.
00:56
It's like when every nine-hole hitter in Major League Baseball starts using the Torpedo Bat
01:01
and we start seeing those guys hit 35 bombs each year,
01:03
then maybe I'll start putting a lot more stock into the idea that it's the bat more than anything else.
01:08
Guess what, Donny?
01:09
Right side.
01:10
I can go by the most expensive driver there is.
01:12
My ball probably still won't land in a fairway every single time.
01:15
Some of it's not really the equipment.
01:17
It's the guy using the equipment.
