00:00One of those interesting teams now is the San Francisco Giants, Tom.
00:03Looking at their one through nine, they pick up Louie Arise there as a free agent here.
00:06Love the fact that you start him off in that lineup.
00:08Raphael Devers, Willie Adamas, Matt Chapman, Jung-Hoo Lee, Ramos, Bader,
00:12who comes over from the Philadelphia Phillies as a free agent.
00:15Got a pretty cheap there, Eldridge and Patrick Bailey.
00:17I'm intrigued by this starting lineup here, Tom, for the San Francisco Giants.
00:21I am too.
00:21You know, I mentioned it to you the other day that I'm interested in the Giants' team total over 81
00:26.5 this season.
00:27I really think they made some good moves.
00:30You know, they bolster their lineup just a little bit.
00:33You know, Bryce Eldridge is one of their top prospects that, you know,
00:36should be making the opening day roster.
00:38He has plenty of power.
00:39I like it.
00:40I like this team top to bottom.
00:42Is it a lineup that has many guys that all have, you know, 30, 40-plus home runs?
00:47No, but it's good enough that I think they'll be better than they were last year.
00:51Yeah, again, it's a true pitcher's ballpark here.
00:53Devers, 35 home runs last year.
00:55Adamas with 30 home runs here.
00:56And you take a look at that lineup from top to bottom.
00:58Nice mix of lefties and righties.
00:59I like that lineup.
01:00But, again, sometimes it's tough just to do the ballpark that they actually pitch in.
01:03Speaking of the pitching staff here, Logan Webb, Robbie Ray, Tyler Molle, Adrian Hauser, and Rapp.
01:08You get the two free agent signings here, Tom, for Hauser and Malley to sort of fill that out.
01:12Robbie Ray, a power pitcher.
01:13Can be good, can be bad at times.
01:15365 ERA, not terrible last year.
01:17But they lean on Logan Webb.
01:18They need him to be solid this year.
01:19Through 34 starts last year, he finished with a 322 ERA.
01:23Yeah, the top of the rotation's good.
01:25Logan Webb is absolutely awesome.
01:27He's finished in the top five-ish of Cy Young.
01:29Robbie Ray's good.
01:30He's not as good as he once was.
01:31The health and the innings will always be an issue for him.
01:33It really comes down to the back end of the rotation and the injuries and who they have to replace
01:39said injuries as they come up.
01:40But I like the lineup and I like the top two options in the rotation.
01:44Now, we take a look at these teams.
01:46We're going to get some of the bottom feeders here, which includes the Colorado Rockies where they wind up.
01:51But the Los Angeles Dodgers, Tom, to win this division.
01:55Minus 700 here.
01:56Followed by the Padres at plus 950.
01:58We'll get to them in the San Francisco Giants at a 17-1 price.
02:01Looks like a runaway for the Dodgers, but it's instead they still have to play the games.
