00:00The Atlanta Braves and the Cleveland Guardians.
00:02The Braves trying to play spoiler.
00:03Maybe they can spoil the Guardian season as well.
00:06Waldrop's on the mound versus Cantillo.
00:08A $134 price at the opening number.
00:12That's disappeared.
00:13We're looking at $125s and less and pick'ems at some outlets here.
00:17Eight and a half line.
00:18Cantillo, I should say, the lefty versus Waldrop.
00:21Not Darryl Waldrop either from NASCAR fame.
00:25Yeah, and listen, I mean, we had the Guardians last night
00:28against the Marlins, and we liked the opportunity here
00:32as they are now also a half a game out of the final wildcard spot
00:37as they're trying to catch the New York Yankees.
00:40And Atlanta, you mentioned it.
00:41Great spoiler trip here.
00:43But they have always dominated the Mets this year.
00:48I mean, they went 7-3 against the Mets this year.
00:50Of all the teams they couldn't beat, the Mets weren't one of them.
00:54Now they've got to go on a road.
00:56They've got to go to take on the Guardians,
00:57coming off a pretty good win where the bats came alive there.
01:02Yeah, I still like the Guardians at a cheap price here.
01:05Team has something to play for versus a team that has nothing to play for.
01:10I'll take the Guardians at home.
01:12Ah, Joe's going to fade Hurston Waldrop.
01:15And by the way, his last 60 days in Major League Baseball,
01:17not a ton of work, but a 91 XFIP minus and a nice ERA of 1.54,
01:22slightly higher XFIP of 3.72.
01:24But right behind him is Cantillo.
01:25That's a 91 XFIP.
01:27So they both have the same XFIP minus over the past 60 days in Major League Baseball.
01:30Just the ERAs are a little bit different.
01:32XFIP's lining up the same.
01:34And again, 4.36 ERA for Cantillo and a 1.54 for Hurston.
01:39How about that name?
01:40Hurston.
01:41Hurston Waldrop.
01:42I don't know if I've ever heard of it.
01:43Like Houston as a name?
01:45Hurston?
01:46Hmm, I don't know about that one.
01:48Like vibes on a pitcher's name?
01:49Not good for me.
01:50Not good.
01:51No, no.
01:51It sounds like a NASCAR driver.
01:53Isn't there a Waldrop NASCAR driver there, Donnie?
01:56Yeah.
01:56Maybe they're related.
01:57Yeah.
01:57Yeah.
01:58Maybe it could be related at this point.
01:59Like, don't you need to have that energy on the mound?
02:01Like, you know, what's your name?
02:02I'm a pitcher.
02:03What's your name?
02:03Zach Wheeler.
02:04Like, ooh, you know what?
02:05I could fit that in.
02:06Hey, who are we going up against today?
02:08Zach Wheeler.
02:08Ooh, man, it's going to be tough.
02:09Who are we going up against today?
02:11Hurston Waldrop III.
02:12Like, what is he going to do?
02:13Like, have like, you know, the million dollar man follow him out there and like throw like,
02:17instead of rose petals, dollar bills as he gets to the mound.
02:19Sounds like that dude grew up rich, though, to me, Joe.
02:21What do you think?
02:22Yeah, he might.
02:24There might be a country club address somewhere involved with him.
02:28I'm just saying.
02:29Might be a gated community involved with that name.
02:33By the way, you know what should have a gated community tonight?
02:36Arizona and Colorado.
02:37See, Arizona putting up numbers again.
02:38Let me ask you this.
02:39Colorado games to me.
02:41Like, yesterday, you had all the makings of what should have been an over game.
02:44Didn't go over, but it wasn't Arizona's fault.
02:46But like, you know, the 88 degree temperatures, the wind blowing out.
02:49But you know what the term is?
02:50Like, I know Arizona's going to hit.
02:52And then they get slapped in the head with like the seven and a half team total, like
02:56plus 110.
02:57You're like, I need eight runs to hit a team total in Major League Baseball.
03:01And yes, they hit the baseball game yesterday to the over.
03:05Do you ever have a problem with Colorado games?
03:06Like, I know they're going to score, but stop the 12 and a half.
03:09Like, 13, the win.
03:11Yeah, it's kind of crazy.
03:13But to your point, Arizona has won six of their last seven, three in a row now, going
03:18for their fourth season.
03:20Why not?
03:21They're trying to get over 500 here.
03:24I got no problem looking to back them in this game here.
03:27I'd even lay the run and a half.
