00:00we'll start off with the san diego padres and we've got fernando tatis 13 home runs 14 steals

00:07you took them high you're getting exactly what you hope for this is a guy on pace for 30 30

00:12264 batting average george i mean it's like if you're training a guy like this

00:17i mean even to get a pitcher of high quality like i mean it's almost like i think like i

00:22gotta get scoobal for a trade like this i don't know that i can move this player

00:26yeah i don't know if anyone's trading tatis anyway listen i guess it could happen tatis for

00:31scoobal but i mean you're talking about a five category guy for a four you know uh but you're

00:37sort of hitting there once again pitching is more valuable than the hitters you know it would have

00:41to be a monster deal i mean listen maybe uh you're dealing quality for quantity and you're getting

00:46three four players back here i can certainly see that as well we know at the trade deadline

00:50you will see some strange trades as well where you may trade a top player for a guy who just

00:55steals stolen bases right that's all he just steals bases for you and that's what you need so you're

00:58trading anybody to get that because that's the category you can gain the most points in

01:01so well we will see deals like that uh but you know as far as normal i don't see tatis being moved

01:06i don't all right because he's i mean you have to be one hell of a strong officer or a desperate

01:12desperate very uh top starting pitcher because i don't see you trading in front of the bat

01:15you know what are you hoping for you got tatis average is okay the home runs are good

01:20you know he steals bases anyway so what are you trying to get back if you're dealing someone like

01:23tatis yeah tough month for him but generally speaking everybody's gonna have a tough month

01:28sam it's the way it works wyatt langford of the texas rangers a lot of high hopes for him going into

01:35the year 13 home runs 11 steals he bats the top so 30 runs driven in can't really look at that as

01:43anything i mean george i i think langford probably would be in line for better numbers

01:49in the second half of the season i don't know how do you feel about that i'm kind of with this

01:54let's just take it as a whole here we haven't played at the season yet so he's probably gonna

01:57hit 30 home runs steal 20 bases that alone is pretty good right does i would take that as as

02:04easier now the average is gonna hurt you and i don't know even if i even let's say we just say

02:08for giggles he's gonna do better in the second half i don't know if the average is gonna get much

02:12better all right or it's gonna help you it's probably still going to hurt you here

02:15uh he's a player depending on what i need i have no problem either way trading him or keeping him

02:20off on my team here but uh i i wouldn't be afraid to acquire him i wouldn't now listen we always have

02:25to tell you when you're when you make trades here uh it's a bugaboo of mine no one trades anymore it's

02:30very difficult here because everyone and it's craig's fault everyone's every talky head's fault

02:35because we all criticize these deals oh you're an idiot you know it's a terrible deal here you know

02:39what do you do what were you thinking you know then again you might want to ask our opinion of

02:43these deals before you make them rather than answer and you wouldn't have to worry about that

02:46problem uh but if i'm going to trade with craig mish i'm going to look at craig's team what does

02:51craig need you know i'm not i'm not saying i'm dying to help craig but i'm not going to offer him a uh

02:57you know a closer if he has three all-star closers on his team he doesn't need one all right i gotta

03:02find what craig needs and work from there and although i may not give craig my best offer right away

03:07it's going to be a competitive offer something we can work with i am not and it has nothing to do with

03:11him being craig measure be anybody my home league i am not going to insult craig and get you know

03:16oh craig and i have your all-star uh hall of fame player for this scrub because you know what craig's

03:21gonna do delete and not talk to me make a competitive offer and work from there i do it anyway i delete

03:28and not talk to you anyway even if it's not a trade it's the way it works

03:31father's dead great sign for george great sign for george jose altuve the ageless wonder again

03:42with another good season this guy's had like one bad year out of 20 it is incredible this guy is oh

03:48if you switch positions you don't hit really okay 10 home runs 30 runs driven in six stolen bases 278

03:55i mean george mentioned hall of fame you're gonna be it's gonna be painful for you that day that

03:59is on that podium man he is the player i probably despise most in baseball all right uh you'll never

04:08be able to convince me he wasn't wearing a buzzer i don't care about the garbage can thing all right

04:11i don't all right but the the buzzer thing that uh that bothers me immensely here uh yeah my wife

04:17didn't want me to take my shirt off you clearly say see here he says he's rounding third base at the

04:23home run by chapman don't take it off i'm wearing it and give me a break all right so yes i do not

04:27like jose altuve probably hate the excuse more than anything else i hate all the excuse these

04:31players make uh just come out and say you did it by the way you'd be forgiven at a certain amount

04:35of times what we do here all right uh but yes uh listen bottom line is he's hitting you know uh

04:41i he'll never be on one of my fantasy teams can't do it uh but he is hitting there gives you the

04:45extra eligibility and outfield although i imagine if you have altuve he is playing second base for you

04:50because second base is a it is just a black hole this season

04:54you
