00:00One change, time change, I believe.
00:02This game is being pushed back.
00:05Shocker, given the fact of what the weather is right now.
00:09But it looks like 8.30 now will be the Washington and Toronto game there, Tom.
00:15So that was originally going to be a 6.40, 6.45 start.
00:19They're going to push that back to 8.30 now.
00:23And that's Bieber versus Cavalli.
00:25And boy, that was interesting last night.
00:28Was it not with Max Scherzer only giving up one run and two and what?
00:33You know, I knew we were in trouble, Tom.
00:36The minute Washington loaded the bases in the first inning and walked away with no runs.
00:41I'm like, yeah, this is exactly what this game is going to be here.
00:46But this Toronto offense cannot be trusted under any circumstances here, Tom.
00:52No?
00:54No, they can't.
00:55And, you know, listen, Shane Bieber was super solid last time out for them.
01:01You know, his last home start.
01:02He's getting through innings.
01:04He's not picking up a whole lot of strikeouts, but he's getting through innings.
01:07Cake Cavalli can really pile up the strikeouts.
01:09He's been solid for the Nats this year.
01:12I don't like this Blue Jays offense.
01:15I think Shane Bieber is surprising, and this is another audition spot for Shane Bieber and the Blue Jays.
01:20To put together back-to-back quality starts, go up against, you know, decent opponents, and put himself in a
01:27position to be traded.
01:28And that's what the Blue Jays should be looking to do.
01:29So I like Kate Cavalli.
01:31I don't like the Blue Jays offense.
01:33I see this as a Nationals bounce-back spot, and frankly, I don't mind the Nationals' money line tonight.
01:38It's a bit heavier for some people, minus 140 thereabout, but I think they bounce back.
01:42I think they are very clearly the better team compared to the Blue Jays.
01:46Yeah, and I think the market is undervaluing Bieber here tonight because, A, he's not nearly a 5-ERA pitcher.
01:57You know, this is a guy that came off the IL, right, back in, what, June?
02:01June.
02:02Was working through a lot of stuff, but if you look at his last three starts here, Padres, six hits,
02:10two runs, four and two-thirds.
02:12White Sox only gave up two-earned—I'm sorry, White Sox, he gave up none.
02:18He didn't give up any earned runs, only gave up three hits.
02:20He went six innings.
02:22Then you mentioned it.
02:23He went seven against Tampa and only gave up one earned run.
02:27That's vintage Bieber.
02:29I think he's getting better.
02:31I don't think he's worse.
02:32I think he's getting better.
02:34I think runs are going to be hard to come by in this game.
