00:00All right, Cleveland and Kansas City,
00:01American League Central matchup to open up the season.
00:03Tanner Bibby starts against Cole Reagans,
00:05who was fantastic for the Royals.
00:08Both teams with high expectations.
00:10Royals a little bit higher, naturally.
00:13Seems to be Bobby Wood Jr. is in full focus here.
00:16Jose Ramirez, two MVP candidates.
00:18Underrated matchup probably to open up the season
00:21as I really do like the direction
00:24that Kansas City is headed.
00:26They are gonna have to fight with Cleveland.
00:28I do believe they're gonna have to fight
00:29with Detroit as well.
00:32Yeah, you probably wanna throw Minnesota in there.
00:33A nice competitive division outside of the White Sox
00:36who are gonna lose, I don't know, 110 plus games.
00:38Sort of the anti-Dodgers.
00:40But yeah, I think it's gonna be a nice opening series here.
00:42Bibby versus, you know, once again, Cole Reagans.
00:44We think he's going to be a solid young candidate there.
00:47Hard not to like the Royals, all right?
00:49I'm a big Pasquotino guy.
00:50I think he's had a better year than last year.
00:53If you do wait on first base,
00:54I think he is a guy you can take later on here
00:56and be your starting first baseman there.
00:58As a third off, first base is thin.
01:00Jonathan India traded over.
01:01Wanna see what he can do for the team here.
01:03We all love Bobby Witt, right?
01:04We know he's gonna be fantastic.
01:06The rotation, Seth Lugo.
01:08You don't wanna sleep on him either.
01:10He's a really good pitcher.
01:11Not a number one, but a low-end number two
01:13is where I have him ranked.
01:15I think he's a guy you don't wanna forget about here.
01:17Walker, Lorenzen, Bubik.
01:19Those are more rotation fillers there.
01:21But I do like the Kansas City.
01:22I like the Kansas City Royals.
01:23I think they're gonna win that division.
01:26The Mets and Astros.
01:27Somehow the Mets landed on Klay Holmes
01:29after everything they did in the off season.
01:30He's their opening day starter.
01:32No offense to Klay Holmes,
01:33but didn't see that one coming.
01:36Frambois Valdez is back for the Houston Astros.
01:39It will be the debut of Juan Soto in New York.
01:42I gotta tell you, there's a story percolating
01:44with the Astros, George,
01:46a player that essentially was not being drafted at all
01:49in 12 team leagues.
01:51This kid, I mean, have the Astros done it again
01:53with this kid, Cam Smith, who they just drafted?
01:57And all of a sudden now,
01:57it looks like he could potentially be a star,
01:59maybe makes the team too out of spring training.
02:01They haven't announced this officially.
02:04One of these years,
02:05we're expecting the Astros to not have some prospect
02:07that comes up and replaces somebody else,
02:09but they may be doing it again this year.
02:12He looks good.
02:14He's battling with Soto McCormick there
02:15for the right field job, right?
02:17So we'll see what direction they go in there.
02:20The first thing that comes to mind
02:20is why aren't they playing Sunday?
02:23Both days Sunday, weird.
02:25I know there's a couple of teams that have off on Sunday.
02:27It's only 13 games on Sunday, instead of 15.
02:29So a couple of games not being played for whatever reason.
02:32Weird.
02:33It's another interesting pitching matchup.
02:36Clay Holmes, by the way, he's had a fantastic spring.
02:39All right, they can't hit him right now.
02:41He looks great.
02:42Probably that's going to be,
02:43how many innings can he give you?
02:44He was relieved the last year.
02:45So can he give you 100, 120 before he falls apart there?
02:49So good luck to that.
02:50Valdez, a solid number two there, fantasy-wise.
02:53Good opening series there.
02:55This may not be the game
02:56where you're going to get 19 runs here,
02:58but the Mets are going to play a lot of overs this year.
03:01Braves and Padres, Chris Sale, Michael King,
03:04another underrated matchup going into opening day.
03:06We know all the predictions between these two teams.
03:10Yeah, one of Sale could stay healthy and do it again there.
03:12Michael King, free agent at the end of the year.
03:13Could be the top free agent pitcher on the market
03:17this year, Greg.
03:18Not too many, it's a weak free agent class
03:20as far as pitching next season.
