00:00
jacob wilson of the a's is just been fantastic man i mean one of the best picks in fantasy
00:05
you know this this is kind of like you know having george let's be honest like luis arise
00:11
with a guy who's hitting some home runs right like i mean 363 in a fantasy league this guy's
00:16
been great maybe you're gonna say help by the ballpark probably true eight home runs 34 runs
00:21
driven in five steals this is why this is by the way the only reason why i cannot buy caglione to
00:29
win rookie of the year i just can't do it this guy's been too good yeah listen i like caglione a lot i
00:34
think over the course of their careers caglione's a much better player but wilson i i don't know how
00:39
i don't know how kags other than an injury to wilson catch him for rookie of the year i just don't know
00:43
you know what has been that good here he's got the most three hit games in baseball i had another one
00:48
last night uh so uh could the ballpark and aiding the home runs sure but guess what he's playing
00:54
there for the next three years so you know worry about that four years down the line now when they
00:58
go to vegas uh yeah no wilson's been great here uh i mean a fine he's really been a fine there's no
01:05
one really saw this coming especially the power i really thought he might be he's more of a punch
01:09
and judy guy i'm more of an arise guy as you say he's on base great but not getting a lot of bombs
01:13
like i said maybe it is because of playing in uh sacramento well guess what he's there all right
01:18
he's gonna be there for three more years here so i know it doesn't matter here whether it's helped
01:21
him or not here we don't care we only care that he puts those numbers up and he's doing that and
01:25
i do expect to win rookie of the year all right so then so the national league rookie of the year
01:29
could be down to these two players george it could be down to the two who we just discussed
01:32
drake baldwin of the atlanta braves 3 10 7 home runs 18 runs driven in but look at augustin
01:40
ramirez he's sort of like right there with him doesn't necessarily have the batting average that
01:45
baldwin has but uh both guys gonna play a lot the rest of the year i think ramirez is gonna
01:51
probably end up hitting more home runs in baldwin if you look on fan duel this is like pretty much
01:55
neck and neck right now now obviously the rookie of the year in the nl would have been smith shauver
02:01
had he not gotten hurt and now clearly is out for the season i think uh gonna be a tight race here
02:07
it is going to be a tight race now atlanta sort of has some decisions to make you got sean murphy
02:13
right uh where miami really doesn't ramirez should play uh do they trade murphy you know
02:20
it's gonna be that kind of year for atlanta you might want to trade him anyway but uh
02:24
well and baldwin sort of came out of nowhere i mean in some ways sort of ramirez uh but he had a
02:28
little bit more valley healed than uh baldwin here it should be an interesting race all right
02:32
because atlanta at some point you know we gotta play baldwin's gotta play he's gotta play you know
02:36
four or five days a week because we need to win and he's hitting you know not that murphy's not
02:39
hitting murphy's actually started off pretty well also here but uh right now i'd probably go with
02:44
baldwin as well oh maybe they're gonna keep platooning here he's on the correct side of the
02:48
platoon anyway as he's the left-handed bat so maybe just works itself out there here uh it'd be funny
02:53
uh because it's miami i think ball uh ramirez would have to beat out baldwin rather than if it's
03:00
tied i think well it's got the advantage here but the thing is i think a rear is going to hit a lot
03:03
more home runs i think he could hit 25 you know and that's going to help out with the uh the voters
03:07
you're going to like that that nice number there the power number here so it'll be close going down
03:11
the stretch though it's been a nice season for catchers we've seen marcelo mayer make his debut
03:15
for the red sox not much to say about it thus far the big discussion for the red sox george has been
03:21
the other player sitting in the minor leagues that's roman anthony who looks like he's just a superstar
03:27
in waiting but george let's just call it what it is the red sox cannot call him up they're playing
03:34
horrible they can't make this guy the savior you can't do that in major league baseball i mean he's
03:40
gonna get called up george but they got to win some games they can't put that they can't put this kind
03:45
of pressure on this kid coming up you're like six games under go out there and be the star that's why
03:50
they're waiting well they also have no place to put him all right their outfield is fine i mean you got
03:56
duran you got rafael who's one of the best defensive uh healers and a break was having a great year you
04:00
have no place to put him out there this is why we're hearing rumors that uh duran can be on the
04:04
move right san diego's interested listen 29 teams should be interested in duran he's a very good
04:09
player here uh so uh we'll see if they end up moving him to make room for roman anthony here uh
04:15
anthony i i do expect to be a star but we thought christian campbell's gonna be really good not so much
04:20
struggling mayor you just talked about him he hit his first dimension home run last night yeah but he's
04:24
been struggling you know so maybe they're thinking whoa back off here because i stopped bringing all
04:29
these guys that we don't want to ruin them as you're sort of hinting here uh we don't want to ruin
04:33
these guys either
