00:00let's get to the american league and as matt said it's not the yankees or the twins or the
00:04seattle mariners or the red sox have the best record in baseball it's the detroit tigers in
00:09the american league they have the 30 wins that's the team that everybody's chasing right now
00:13uh and they're at the top of the central but can the tigers hold on i think that is a big question
00:19you look at the rankings here the yankees are still at the top rodon's pitched relatively well
00:24uh max free has been great you'd like to see somebody else will warren's been pretty good
00:29which is one of our sleeper picks going into the year he's been serviceable you know if you got
00:33will warren for free you're kind of lucky right now you're enjoying that ride but they need more help
00:38i don't know if louis heel is going to be that help or somebody else outside the organization but i think
00:42the yankees still need more help they're plus 280 they still feel like a pretty good wager three to
00:46one to win the american league because they have the will to go out there and it's not even the
00:51prospects they can move matt because the prospect well isn't the greatest it's the ability to take
00:57on bigger salaries the teams just want to shed and at the end of the day this is what's wrong
01:02with baseball and that salary cap issue where you're just going to the yankees will just take
01:07this terrible contract because they can and they'll eat it for a season and we'll figure it out later
01:12the seattle mariners again my big question with them is the health of logan gilbert we'll see when
01:16he comes back i think they're tough to invest and i would stay away from them boston red sox at nine to
01:21one are intriguing uh i have to say now you don't like what happened with giolito yesterday
01:26you again you look at what they have prospect wise what's going on in the clubhouse i think it's a
01:31big distraction with the devers stuff and all the first base issues and nonsense going on there
01:35so there's a lot to iron out here but the red sox are have the best prospect capital to make moves
01:43at the break to bring in more help to that rotation or to that offense frankly if they need it
01:47and we'll see if they want to do that or if they just want to bring those kids up but the red sox
01:52are still within striking distance at nine to one the rangers jacob de grom had a great start this
01:57week it was a terrific pitching matchup between him and hunter brown i think you would agree
02:00if you love old time pitching matchups you gotta love that one and that's a big turn of the corner
02:06now can he stay healthy because we've seen this before where the ground goes out there it looks
02:09like to grama wall the next thing you know he's out there on the il again i still think it's the
02:12yankees to lose i'm gonna be honest with you uh houston astros no houston astros are not it this
02:17year they don't have enough offense especially with alvarez out this is i don't think they can
02:21flip the switch this season so the yankees for me and i'm not trying to ignore the tigers but as
02:26good as scoobal is again short series i just don't know if they could beat the yankees scoobal can't
02:31pitch every single game
