00:00The Yankees return from Queens to the Bronx
00:03to host the Seattle Mariners, minus $132.
00:06That price in favor of the pinstripes at home.
00:09Total is nine.
00:10The M's swept the Pirates over the weekend at home.
00:13Now make the cross-country journey.
00:15Not just a matchup of these two squads,
00:17but a matchup, of course, of our two guys
00:20leading the home run race this year.
00:22Big dumper Cal Raleigh has 35.
00:24Aaron Judge has 33.
00:26What will we see tonight in the Bronx?
00:27If you just want to look at analytics,
00:30you should be back in Logan Gilbert,
00:32number one on the card today overall.
00:33And this guy's an ERA of close to five.
00:35Donnie, how can he be the best pitcher on the card?
00:37Well, theoretically, he doesn't walk players.
00:39He strikes them out at an extremely high rate.
00:41That's usually what gets you out of situations like,
00:44oh, second and third, one out here.
00:46You avoid contact.
00:47You avoid getting a run home with a positive out,
00:50or should I say a quality, a bad appearance.
00:52Isopower, weighted on base percentages,
00:53high against Gilbert.
00:54Again, that strikeout rate,
00:5535% over the past month.
00:58If you just look at left-handed batters,
00:5943% strikeout rate,
01:01which is absolutely incredible.
01:03Lefties in the lineup,
01:04Grisham, Rice, Bellinger, Chisholm, Wells.
01:07Like, I look at this and say to myself,
01:09like, yes, the Yankees probably should be a favorite,
01:11but I gotta tell you,
01:12with Gilbert on the mound,
01:13I'm looking at that plus 104 price and saying,
01:15let me just be a sneaky dog here
01:16with an ERA of a really high pitcher,
01:19but a great analytical pitcher.
01:20I'll trust the analytics tonight.
01:22How about that?
01:22And then that'll be a little bit more fun.
01:26Yeah.
01:27Let's go.
01:27Let's go.
01:30Here we go.
