00:00And we got the Cubs taking on the Tigers and some great matchups this weekend.

00:05Jamison Tyon against Hyder Montero.

00:08And then Sunday, it's Cade Horton against Jack Flaherty.

00:12Two prime matchups, I think, coming this weekend.

00:15Yeah, first place teams, maybe a World Series preview, as they always like to say here.

00:21As a coach, it's been fantastic.

00:22Tyon comes off a great start earlier.

00:25I mean, you're talking about, I mean, could this be a World Series preview?

00:29How much do we believe in the Cubs?

00:30Let's see if they're lesser pitching.

00:32Eminaz is still probably a few weeks away, maybe late June, early July.

00:36We see him back there.

00:37Cade Horton's been a nice story here.

00:40It's probably not the sexy.

00:41We got Scuba last night, right?

00:42So we're not going to see him the rest of the weekend.

00:45But I don't expect a lot of runs this weekend in Detroit, right?

00:48I think there's going to be more mediocre games here, four, three games, somewhere around there.

00:53Talion, they were going to move him at one point.

00:56Not going to do that now with how well they're playing.

00:57Cade Horton is the guy, by the way.

00:59That we don't talk about as far as picking up.

01:00He's the guy, he's on my watch list.

01:02And I'll be watching him again this weekend.

01:05The Blue Jays take on the Twins.

01:07Tough matchups here, I think, in both spots here.

01:10I think that the advantage for Saturday's game is Toronto with Gossman taking on Chris Paddock.

01:17And then Sunday, the Twins have Joe Ryan on the mound, George.

01:21And unfortunately, they lost Pablo Lopez for what looks like to be two, three months.

01:26Dude, it's going to be tough for the Twins without him.

01:29Yeah, that's a brutal injury, right?

01:31He's not coming back anytime soon.

01:34Gossman's been up and down.

01:35Up, down.

01:35You don't know what you're going to get from him starting to start out.

01:37Didn't Bob pitch roll that well on his last start.

01:39It was fantastic.

01:39The start before that.

01:41The Toronto Blue Jays, by the way.

01:42You know, we talked about the Tampa Bay Rays, how they're playing well.

01:46Blue Jays playing well there, Greg.

01:49All right, they've sort of announced themselves that maybe, maybe, you know, we've seen this

01:53before from them, but that maybe they can be a threat there in the American League East.

01:58I mean, they're the same record as the Rays, 34-29.

02:01You have five and a half games behind the Yankees there.

02:03So, Blue Jays have been pitching, playing very well.

02:06You know, I know some of that was against Sacramento.

02:08I get that.

02:09But, hey, you've got to beat who's on your schedule, and they've been doing that.

02:11Chris Paddock is another guy, by the way.

02:13If you're looking for a starter, you might be out there in your fantasy leagues.

02:15You might want to go grab him.

02:17Maybe not today.

02:18I have a little bit worried about fixing that Toronto lineup and how hot they are.

02:21I think Francis will get the snot beat out of him tomorrow, by the way.

02:24I sort of start to split in the series.

02:25Jays win today.

02:26Minnesota wins tomorrow.

02:29Dodgers-Cardinals.

02:29What a great matchup we've got going today.

02:32Yoshinobu Yamamoto against Eric Fetty.

02:34That's a great start.

02:35And, yeah, I mean, I'm looking up myself here to see who's pitching Sunday.

02:39I can't find it.

02:41You know, fans try to help us out here.

02:43But it seems like just TBD for both situations here.

02:51I'm going to take TBD to win that game.

02:53I think I'll be all right.

02:54Listen, Yamamoto, we know he's been the Dodgers' best starter there.

02:58Did not pitch all that well Sunday night against the Yankees here.

03:01So, I think I do expect a rebound from him.

03:03Dodgers made a score run last night.

03:05Remember, they got shut out by St. Louis.

03:07All right, lost 5-0 there.

03:08Didn't see that coming here.

03:09Sonny Gray is really, really good.

03:12But, once again, doesn't get enough as much love as he should either here.

03:15And I guess he's not going anywhere with the – he didn't want to go anywhere before the season.

03:18Now they're playing well.

03:19He certainly doesn't want to go anywhere by the deadline there.

03:22Fede has been probably more good than bad.

03:26But still, it worries me a little bit here.

03:27I certainly like Fede.

03:29And as for tomorrow, we don't know who's pitching tomorrow.

03:32It's hard to judge that game here.

03:34It is still TBD versus TBD there.

03:36St. Louis.

03:38I guess it is.

03:38I can't even find it.

03:40Well, they say Kershaw.

03:42I see Kershaw now for the L.A. for what it's worth versus Undecided.

03:48Doesn't make me feel any better.

03:49I probably still like Undecided.

03:50Yeah.
