00:00Let's get after it. Major League Baseball today, people. Let's start in Baltimore, Boston and Baltimore,

00:05which you saw yesterday, a 4-3 victory here by the Boston Red Sox as they handled business,

00:10trying to stay in that race in the AL East. If we look at the line today, Joe, it's roughly a pick-em

00:15depending where you're shopping at. It's Gialito versus Braddish. I haven't heard that name in a

00:18while, Braddish. Yeah, he's coming back from Tommy John surgery, and he's got quite a mixed bag. We're

00:22going to go over in just a few moments here. The total of this game opened up at 9, Joe,

00:25but it does sit now at 8.5. Gialito, last 60 days, decent ERA, 3.42. Analytics don't love him,

00:32but if we look at Braddish coming back, because sometimes you don't know how they're going to

00:36handle it coming back from Tommy John. He had a couple starts in high A rookie ball,

00:41a start in AA, and then into AAA. His AAA starts, Joe, between building up to getting back to Major

00:47League Baseball. On August the 3rd, he started in AAA. Three innings pitched, seven runs,

00:53five of those earned. Then he went three and two-thirds innings pitched, gave up six hits,

00:58and three earned runs. Then he had a decent start on the 14th of the month, Joe. He had five innings

01:03pitched, two hits, no earned runs, and then his last start, four and two-thirds innings pitched,

01:07six hits, three earned runs here. ERA, which includes rookie ball, at close to five. Sometimes

01:13they're hard to calculate how it's going to factor in, but I can't go with Baltimore in this game with

01:18Braddish coming back, talking about a five ERA, coming back from Tommy John. How long is he even

01:22pitching for in this game? Yeah, see, I don't know, but that's the problem is I'm also not

01:28expecting Giolito to continue with what he has got going on here. At some point, I do think there's

01:35regression coming for Giolito, as well as this Boston bullpen that, you know, has pitched way above

01:43their pay grade and stats over the last couple of weeks here. But you're right. What are you going

01:49to get from Braddish? You don't know. What I do know is Baltimore has had a ton of success

01:53against Giolito over the last couple of years. I feel like that was a close one last night. The

01:59home run ends up doing them in. Baltimore should have won that game. But yeah, why not? I mean,

02:04a plus money. I'll take a shot on Kyle Braddish outpitching Giolito. Who knows what we're going to get?

02:10you're right.

02:10I mean,

02:12I'm going to help. I'm not going to play so many of these. I hope you enjoy that.
