 Alright over at Fox Field with Eric and AJ. We were talking before the show about the best team in baseball right now We're just past the one-third mark so a lot of baseball to be played But if we asked you to rank let's say the top five go from five up to the number one team You could do that for us, right? I can do that. You can do that Wait, I can't wait who he's going with but start at number five. Okay. I'll start at number five and remember I mean I had a tough time especially four and five, but You know after a lot of thought right preparation and that's trouble for you. Here's number five. Okay. Thank you Chris the Cubs. Wow Chicago Cubs and again, they haven't been playing extremely well lately And they had that stretch at the beginning of the season, but they won today and overall This is a team that has some depth. They can beat you in a lot of different ways Their team that I would say right now one of the top five in baseball All right, but a six and 12 record since the middle of May so but you still think in the end They're still top five. All right, who gets number four. Thank you for pointing that out And I'm gonna go to top four right now. So number four where are those guys at a list? Hey AJ You're gonna appreciate this the twins really. This is where you were drafted. Come on, right? Team with the best record in baseball four So here that may be at least two the things about the twins now everybody talks about the home runs and the offense Which of course we're all aware of the starting pitching the starting pitching has the second best RA in the American League, which is really the first because Tampa Bay is atop and they've got that starter thing that skews everything They can play no question. And you're right. They do have the best record percentage wise Why is that up there now because the Yankees are three? Well, I was gonna go touch the board. We're in a hurry So we got to move it along. I like the Yankees. They're playing well But see this is the interesting thing with the Yankees too They're gonna have all these guys coming back and people think well, they're gonna play even better than they are I don't know about that but they become more potent They become a deeper team. I'd like the Yankees at three. I love their bullpen Which when we get into the late the postseason, that's a big deal. All right, so now we're down to Now this is a tough one here, but you know where I'm gonna go with you Houston Houston Astros they're a little Bitten by the injury bug a bit. I think they need one more starter again a very deep athletic team went all healthy I'll two of a though. That's been a question mark. I don't know what happens with him I mean, he was on his way back then again the leg issue Springer comes back They are right now for me the class of the American League go Verlander and Cole Excellent, so say a second best offensive baseball so American League you agree with that that they're the best of the American I agree with I agree with where he's got probably these guys ranked Except I'd probably maybe move the twins up right now. This is right now This isn't when judge Stanton Gregorius everyone comes back. I'll two of a comes back I mean the twins again best record in baseball great starting pitching Don't find a way to figure out their bullpen. I would move the twins sounds like some Minnesota home route I mean look at any time you're beating up on the Tigers But let me give you number one I know you guys we know we already know speaking at home rooting here we go number one It's real easy I look at the starting pitching has been off the charts Ryu has been Second to none really in all of baseball you talk about the MVP Cody Bellinger The depth of this ball club they can match up with any starting pitcher. You could throw a right-hander against them They've got a group of left-handers that are gonna take them apart. You throw a lefty. They've got a group of right They for me right now are playing the best baseball. They've been best against the top competition They're the best team way earlier earlier. You said National League better than American League We got three American League teams here two National League teams here So right now it looks like the American League is better than the national well He's just ranking who's number one in a particular top five. Thank you for explaining this But would you disagree that that's a pretty good? Right now or the best team in baseball the way would you change your I'd move the twins up to where because this is right Where would you move to three at this moment? You put them at two put them at two right now. This is right now a month from now and I'll too big Korea right now Come back when you beat up on the the Royals and though But that's why we can have this discussion now we can have it at another month or two All right, thanks for putting all your time and energy and he tried to trash it, but it was
