 Hi everyone, Joe for jaspyscasewrakes.com. Happy Wednesday coming at you with 2023 Bowman Baseball Jumbo Edition, eight box picker team number nine from jaspyscasewrakes.com. Big thank you to this group right here for making it happen. I appreciate you. Thank you. Chad, you ended up with the official last spot mojo with the Rangers. If you have a jumbo pack eight next game, that means you won that spot in the filler we did just before we started this video. Did I upload that pack? I did. Did I add that pack to the promo list? Because you are part of the promo. I did. And everyone on that list is part of the promo as well. So you might be asking yourself and Nicole might be asking herself. So Joe, does that mean I get an entry for being in the jumbo break and another entry for getting the Marlins? The answer is yes. So kind of heavy. I probably do like curls with these. Work on the biceps a little bit. Work on the guns. I could maybe lift these behind my head. Work on my triceps. Work on that too. I could maybe just work on the core. Kind of bring those around a little bit. I could hold this above my head while I'm doing crunches. Work on those abs. Good luck everybody. She is a lucky girl joke to you. There she is. And we did get the promo done because that best university break is full. So we're going to do that. Then we're going to do the Bowman University break after this. And then we'll give away the break credit. No, I'm not. I don't do any exercises. You are correct. That is a lie. Right. Those are the only curls I'm doing. Curling an adult beverage into my mouth. That's right. That's right Jason. You probably have as much muscle mass as an eight-year-old boy. Not sure how Jason is familiar with the body mass type of an eight-year-old boy. That's interesting. You might be on some lists. All right. Box number one. Three autos a box on average. So for example, this kind of paper will ship. That won't ship. Right. So rookie card paper will ship. Bowman first paper will ship. But like prospect paper and vet paper won't ship. So like these guys aren't going to ship. That will ship because that's Bowman first sign. This guy won't ship though. So just keep that in mind. And three autos a box. Otherwise all chrome ship obviously. All numbered paper will ship obviously. And Jorge Burgos will ship. That's 40 out of 250. Purple chrome going to Jeremy and the Guardians. And Shay Whitcomb will ship because it's an autograph. 33 out of 50. That's for Oren and the Houston Astros. And of course I'll do an autograph recap at the end of the break. If you're re-watching this video, you can fast forward to that's Roger Garrius, not Spencer Jones. You can, there's Spencer Jones. If you're watching live, you're stuck with me in this break. I guess if you're not in this break, you could leave I suppose. Jason Jaspy is still live on Instagram. And we've got, we've got a Nate Savino. Joe Pizzle. What team is this guy on? Joe Pizzle knows his, let's see how well Joe Pizzle knows his prospects. Don't look it up Joe P. Oh, he's got, he's going to know this. One sec as I Google it. That's, that doesn't count. You should know this though. Arizona Diamondbacks. He's from, from Sterling Potomac Falls High School from Sterling, Virginia. And drafted by the Dimebacks in the third round. That's going to go to Matthew Sharath. Chad Dawes is saying, which team has the worst batting average in baseball? Well, knowing how negative you are about your team, I would say it's the Seattle Mariners. There's Cam Collier. That Spencer Jones, by the way, it went to Mark Nofke, by the way. And then Cam Collier goes to Mark Beset and the Reds. Those are some of the, some of the more upper tier along with Edward Julian, Drew Jones, Justin Crawford. Those are some of the upper tier rookies that we're sleeving and top loading from the get go. They are the worst, unwatchable. Well, how are they doing now? There was a little rain delay. They should be able to tee off against J.P. Sears. Maybe they're not teeing off on J.P. Sears. He has four strikeouts already through three. And our third auto is Wilmer Abreu. Although, when we ever we get these like all-America under armor player autographs, sometimes we get an extra auto. That's usually like a bonus auto. So this goes to Orin and the Astros. Let's see if we could find a bonus auto out of here. A fourth. They almost get no hit yesterday by the, by the A's. Well, I'd be shocked with the team they have Chad. I'll be shocked if they have the worst average in baseball by the all-star break. That's a lot of season to go. And there's Justin Crawford. Carl's kid, Carl Crawford's kid. That's magenta paper to 2.99. That'll be for the Phillies, Neil with that one. There's Roderick Arias speckled to 2.99 for the Yankees. That'll be for Mark. There's Edward Julian. And there's Drew Jones. The team they have besides Julio Hootman. I don't know how, Chad, you just go from here to here to here. I'm consive concerns for your blood pressure and your heart. You should have seen him during the playoffs. Marriage in the playoffs when they got in. What an amazing team. This team's fantastic. How far could they possibly go? And then it was just depths of despair when they were out of the playoffs. It was just the worst day ever. There's Fraley and Carnation. That's our fourth autograph of the box. It's the rollercoaster ride of being a Seattle sports fan, I guess. I mean, I feel like the other day Chad was making Stanley Cup parade plans with the Kraken next loss that they have. I think it's going to be which bridge. It's going to be looking at bridges to jump off of. Yeah, forget about the Mariners, Chad. Just think about your Kraken. Except Chad's like the opposite of you, Rex. Chad's like just way too negative. Just impossibly negative. You are like impossibly positive. We need both of you guys to come a little bit closer to the middle here. It's a long season. What about Jared? I'm looking at the box score right now. Jared Kalanek's hitting 313. Yeah, that's your number three hitter, Jared Kalanek. I mean, when a guy that hit 160, that's last year. This year, Jared Kalanek's hitting 313. He's one for two today. Kalanek's the only player doing anything. Remind us of your thoughts about Jared Kalanek last year, Chad. You want to apologize to Jared? When's Jared Kalanek going to go to the Miners? Is he a bust? When will the Mariners trade him? He's not going to do anything in the league. How many years is Jared Kalanek last in the league? Less than three? Less than two? I've always been high? No, stop. I don't think, Jason, where's Jason Jaspy? I feel like Jason Jaspy, am I wrong here? Was he... I feel like there are some harsh words about Jared Kalanek for many moons. There's Tommy Specht. Now, you also said that about Kyle Lewis. I'm pretty sure you said that about Jared Kalanek too. There's 24. I think you do hate Kyle Lewis more, but not as much as Kyle Seeger. Kyle Lewis, maybe it's a Kyle thing, but I've heard harsh words about Kalanek too. Will he ever figure it out? I don't think he's had anything about... I don't think he's gonna... he doesn't have what it takes to be a major leaguer. You didn't say that up. I'm pretty sure you did. Where's Jimmy or Danny? There's Yainer Fernandez, 100 out of 3.99. Lava for my Dodgers. That'll be for Mark. Mark was set with that. Why did we trade for Kalanek? What a poor move. I think you did say about Kalanek. I mean, Chad, maybe you're just so blind, blinded with rage against your Mariners. I think you forget sometimes what you say about these players. You're just so blinded with rage. Just the red mist over your eyes. And there's Junior Tillian. That's for the Metropolitan. That's gonna be for Neil Patel. There you go, Neil. Scott is from a Met's point of view, Scott saying, not happy about the trade then or now. I mean, who knew that he was gonna... he's gonna do his ACL during the World Baseball class? You weren't happy with the trade then? I suppose not. I feel like... I feel like he's put up the numbers last year. Averson Arteaga at a 2.99. For the Giants. For David Harrell and his Giants. We've got a paper and chrome camocalier for Mark and the Reds. And we've got for the A's, speckal autograph, Colin Palouse. 25 out... 25... 255 out of 2.99. Yeah, I'm looking at the Mariners line up. Yeah, it's not good. But I mean, I'd be surprised if they had the lowest average in baseball by midseason. You think Julio's gonna hit 235 all year? I mean, AJ Pollock's not gonna hit 125 all year. I assure you that. Tom Murphy's hitting 176. He's lifetime 233. That's gonna go up, right? There's some... there's some... yeah, Julio's not gonna hit 235 all year. Pollock's not gonna hit 125 all year. Why is Tom Murphy starting anyway? Don't the Mariners know that I have Cal Raleigh on my fantasy team? I need the big dumper to hit some more home runs like he has been doing. The two home run game the other night, it's pretty nice. Yeah, but Cal Raleigh's not hitting bad... you're not expecting batting titles from Cal Raleigh. You know, you want to hit those... hit those jacks. Call a good game and hit those jacks. Next box. And we've got a pink Raleigh green out of 175. Pink paper. Pink Panther. Rick T with the Tigers. Well Chad, fine. You're right. Season's over for the Mariners. Just... we'll be happy to... why don't you just go ahead and trade Julio Rodriguez to the Dodgers. Get some guys... there's a lot of guys in the Dodgers farm system that can that can hit above the Mendoza line. We'll send you some of those guys. We'll take Julio Rodriguez off your hands. Thank you. There's Josh Hood for the Mariners. Mark Passat. Just call it. Season's over. Yeah, trade Kalanek too. Why even have those guys if the rest of the guys aren't gonna hit? It's a lost season already. Let's just call it. Hit the reset button. Here's Alex Ramirez to 199. Yeah, they're not gonna... yeah, they're not gonna pay him anyway. Chad, your team's not gonna pay him. Your team sucks. You're not gonna pay Julio Rodriguez anyway, so he's gonna be gone after all of his arb years, right? Yeah, free age starting to go there. They're just gonna have bad years when they go to Seattle anyway. I do, but you don't... you think they're gonna give him a second contract? No. I'm surprised they got him to pay... got him a contract now. At the cheapest... cheapest you could get for Julio Rodriguez. You didn't want to hit him... hit open market. Seattle would never have a chance. There's William Lugo. It's a 15-year deal. Well, there's got to be Alts, right? Yeah, he's probably... I'm so fine. I don't know why Chad's suddenly defending his team. Chad, you know they're... you know that he's not gonna last the entire contract, so may as well just... yeah, they'll trade him... you gotta save money anyway. In fact, they should just move the team, Chad. With fans like... with fans like Chad Dahl, just move the team. Yeah, just have them leave Seattle. It's an ice hockey town. Seattle is not a baseball town. It's an ice hockey town. Where should... where should Seattle go? They should... Salt Lake City wants a team. That... that... Chad wouldn't mind. That team sucks. Send... send the Mariners to Oklahoma City. Justin Crawford to 175, pink paper. I don't know. Sounds like... sounds like the Mariners. Sounds like Seattle needs some more... she needs more fans like Rex out there. Can we trade Rex from the Cubs to the Mariners? Cubs fans might need a little... a little more downers like like Chad though. Here's Jose, Perroza, 008 out of 250, purple ray wave for the Mets. It'll be for... for Neal. There's Emanuel Bonilla, 005 out of 100, Tommik for the Blue Jays. That'll be for Neal as well. Hoolie to the Yankees. Judge isn't that? Judge will be fine. Let's just move him to DH. Once... once Stanton runs out of his contract. Good teams with good players can always make it work. Rex. Rex saying it's... it's not always about the chips. That's precisely what it's about. It's always about the chips. That's the only reason why any team plays the game. That's the only reason why we even keep track of... if it's not about the chips, why even keep track of win-loss records? We should just play for participation trophies as the point. This isn't a Little League Baseball. It is about the chip. Why are you hating on me being angry with your team? Sounds like you're giving up on your team. You didn't play any sports growing up? I mean, I wasn't coordinated either. I still play sports. I think it's... it's important, I think, to play sports, I think. That's... that's a good... so it's... team sports, I think, is important. You learn about winning. You learn about losing. You learn about yourself. You get that winning mentality. It's always about the chips. Otherwise, we wouldn't keep score. Samuel Muñoz to 125. At least in the majors. When you're a kid, whatever. On the... on the pro level, I mean. It is all about the chips. That's why we're paying these guys all that... all this money. Now, what... yeah, what did you hunt? I'd like to go bow hunting someday. There's Matt Mervis, Bowman first autograph for Scott Goodman in the Cubs. If it wasn't always about the chips, many owners wouldn't consider... well, it's because they're greedy owners. That's different. For the fans and for the players and for the front office, it's always about the chips. You're always battling owners for that. You think owners are always doing what's in the best interest of their employees? No way. Look at your CEO, Rex. Guys cashing in all these bonuses while... while guys like you who's working their butts off through a pandemic. What are you getting paid, Rex? You should be getting... you should be getting a piece of that CEO money. Just like that. Another goal for Vegas? I hope we can, Nicole. Good start for my Lakers game one. A Kings Lakers series would have been a lot of fun. That would have been a lot like some of the old days. There's Jonathan Mejia, 53 out of 99, Invicta autograph. Would have liked to see little Kings Lakers. But yeah, hopefully Lakers can do well against the Warriors. Good start though, so far so good. Simon for the Cardinals gets the Jonathan Mejia Invicta autograph. Gay, what's going on? Welcome. There's Jace Avena, 38 out of 150. I don't know why I top-loaded that, but there you go. I was gonna get top-loaded anyway. Brewers, Mark with that one. Here's Drew Jones for Matthew. Have you seen how terrible Drew Jones' helmet looks? Is there something wrong with his helmet? Here's a Henry Davis, 7 out of 50. Nice Bowman Scouts top 100 gold for the Bucco's Brandon of the Pirates. There's Hector Rodriguez, purple paper to 250 for Mark in the Reds. And we've got Tommy Speck, 143 out of 250, purple chrome autograph for the Rangers. Chad Cromwell, last spot mojo. I think we had another one previously as well. Yeah, we had one previously as well. Last spot mojo, 70% of the time. Hits 100% of the time. Especially in the main breaks. Terrible how though. I'm not I'm not sure how it looks terrible. My eye is not as sharp as yours, Gilo. Halfway through this break, about another 35, 36 minutes ago. It looks photoshopped. I don't know, maybe that... Well the one on the the the preview image on the website is definitely photoshopped. That's a mock-up. Does it look the same way here too? That's the entire photo kind of looks like it, right? It almost looks like they put the Bowman inception filter on it or something like that. Maybe that's the way the matte, maybe it's a matte helmet kind of looks looks a little weird on on a photo. Maybe they oversaturated it a little too much. I mean I'm sure all these photos are photoshopped to a certain extent. Maybe they're a little aggressive on the some of the color corrections. Alright, I think some of you may have noticed another one of those autographs, an Under Armour autograph or All American autograph, which may mean we will get a bonus auto out of this box. More often than not, that's what it seemed to seem to look like. There's Brett Beatty. 61 out of 199. Purple paper for the Mets that's gonna go to Neil. And then we have a Hayden Younger autograph. Refractor autograph 485 out of 499 for Toronto. That's also for Neil. He's heating up. He's on fire. From downtown. And it's Nate Savino. Diamondbacks. The other one was a Nate Savino as well. The auto seemed cleaner on the first one. Is he a lefty? He's a lefty. He must right left. Sometimes left-handers run their hand across. I think this announcer's voice is just wrecked after after a game. There's Andres Mesa. 141 out of 199 for Chad and the Rangers. Gilo's left-handed. Smears City. You're a lefty, huh? Do you hit left as well? There's a Henry Davis autograph. Nice. 45 out of 50. Another Bowman Scouts top 100 gold, but this time with the auto. Nice. Former number one overall pick. Another big name for the Pirates that could come up pretty soon. Wow. You only right left, but you do everything else right-handed? You bat, you throw, you putt right-handed? Isn't that the... I feel like that's one of the... If you look at all the behavioral sciences for the FBI, I think they say that that's part of what serial killers do. Gilo, are you a serial killer? We can uncover some crimes right now. Here's a true crime episode here in Bowman Picker Team 9. Jaspy true crime episode. Did you wet the bed through adulthood? Do you still wet the bed? Do you have the propensity to start fires? Do you harm animals? Do you right left, but do everything right-handed? Do you often give yourself high compliments? Like saying that you're the... Do you often say to yourself, I'm the Otani of this? Do you think you're smarter than everybody else? Here's a nice Jacob Berry autograph. It's gonna go to Nicole and the Marlins. That's for the spot that she won in the filler. Sixth overall pick. Well, you might be a serial killer, Gilo. Someone look up unsolved murders in the Kansas City area. Someone pull that. I'm sure those are really easy to find. Just pull up those numbers and we'll figure it out. Welcome to another true crime break with Joe Jaspy. Every eight-box Pick Your Team jumbo case break that we do, we solve a new cold case where we uncover serial killers. Here's Jorge Burgos to $4.99. Oh, you love serial. Love it enough. Love it enough to murder Gilo. This could be like case breaks and date line together. All Kanzai, Rex. All Kanzai. No, Gilo is a long-suffering Royals fan. But his sports fan temperament is much, much more easy going because he's also a fan of the Chiefs. So his murderous rage is not as great as, say, our friend Chad Dough in the Pacific Northwest. Helen just got thrown out. Like what? At home plate? I do not remember Trump crediting it. I feel like a lot of people have made that mistake. The ump threw him out. Right, that's what umps usually do. Was it at first base, second base, home plate? There are the ones calling the outs. Here's a hunter bargo. Yeah, that's what umps do. Chad, you're out of here. Point to a base, you're out. Oh, he got ejected. Oh, that's different. For what? Hunter bargo goes to the Pirates. So this might mean we might get a fourth autograph out of here. This goes to Brandon and the Pirates. Won the spot in the filler. Maybe he's truck out and walked away. Then he got thrown out. Oh, well, you know what happened, Chad. We all saw the movie Bull Durham. There's Jace Bowen, 116 out of 125 also for the Pirates. Jackson Kurio, number one on the Bowman Scouts top 100. Here is Jace Avena, 291 out of 499. That's Jackson Kurio's future teammate. It's for Mark and the Brewers. Oh, yeah, that's right. Jilo, you've got Max Muncie, Dodgers edition on your fan team. He sure did a walk off grand slam. If you go to the live stream video earlier tonight, you might hear me say Max Muncie is going to hit a grand slam. And then a few moments later, he hits a grand slam to walk it off against Craig Kimbrel and the Phillies. Boy, am I glad the Dodgers do not have Craig Kimbrel anymore. Not this Max Muncie. Well, you know the magic words get thrown at Chad. He probably called the ump a, I don't even know if there's a delicate way to say this on a family friendly show here. There are some implications made about his bedroom habits, I want to say. John with the twins. That'll get you run. Hector Rodriguez yellow paper 75. Now, I think from what I know about, from what little I know about getting ejected in professional baseball is that, yeah, you might be able to comment on the call. Like you could be like, hey, um, that was a BS call. That was low. Now, if you walk away and you're like, your BS, um, that's a slight difference, but that can get you run. I mean, you could have been like, what a D as he's walking away loud enough under his breath. Maybe thought he was under his breath. He could have been like, you're, you're an S. Ump. Or you can be like, what a, what a S. Ump as he's walking away. Yeah, Kellinix done. Tratum. There's Nick vote to 150. Blue Chrome. Rex is saying Kimber at one point was on a Hall of Fame trick. Same way. David Price. Well, that's the thing, Rex. It's hard to keep up. Keep that up. Yeah. Kimber was awesome at one point with the Braves and even with the Cubs for a bit, but that's what happens. Then players regress. They start to suck. You know, they can't, they can't have that dominance forever. That's what makes that. Well, that's the difference between a Hall of Fame players and not Hall of Fame players. You know, anyone can have a string of good years, but you know, more, more often than not, most players are not going to do that from beginning to end of his career. Same with David Price, same with Craig Kimbrell. I don't think that's strange at all. I think that's pretty common, actually. Right. I mean, look at what Kershaw is. He was Kershaw, I think one NL player of the month. You know, and he doesn't have his best stuff anymore, but he's still figuring out ways to win. He's 50 out of 150, Eric, and that's why you give players like that. Gotta give him a lot of credit. That's why they're special. David with the light talks. I mean, in my opinion, that shouldn't be strange. That shouldn't be strange to anybody, because that's what happens all the time. He struck out swinging. It was super weird on why maybe, what was the pitch before Chad? Maybe the pitch before was outside, but was called a strike, expanding Kelleneck strike zone, meaning he had to swing at whatever pitch was next, which made him mad, because he had to expand the strike zone, because he didn't know where that pitch was going to be called. And then you go, ump, ump, your player is blind as a bat. You're an S. Ump. M. Effer. U. M. Effer. U. M. Eff that ump. You're getting run. Damon Keith. That goes to the Dodgers. That'll be for Mark Bissette. That's what happens there, Chad. Does it sound stuff? We can look at ump score tomorrow. Let's see how much he really sucked. There's a Twitter account that does ump scores. It's really great. I don't know, or maybe Jared Kelleneck heard Chad Dahl on the jazzy stream being like the Mariners suck. And he's just like, well, with fans like this, why should I even play the game? Why am I, who am I playing for here? Just a paycheck. Here I am trying to play for the fans. Here I am trying to play for the fans and just not being appreciated by Chad Dahl. I'm out of this game. At least I am a fan. You're pretty sure there's only 250 people at the park today? Really? What's the weather like out there? What's the weather like right now? Oh, it was raining. That's why, Chad, there was a rain delay. I think it was delayed for hours. There would have been 500 people there, but they lost half the crowd in Oakland. There's a question, Rex. Where on the list would you put Kershaw for Best Dodger's Pitcher? Probably number two behind Sanny Kofax. Another all-america baseball autograph, which might mean there's an extra hit, extra auto. Scott's saying I don't know if there's much and I can do in the A's favor with that completely throwing the game. Right. There would be some explaining to do. What, James? Did you know James is telling me, did you know that Kershaw and Matt Stafford grew up together and are best friends? You're going to tell me they played high school football together in Texas. I did not know that. Next thing you know, you're going to try to tell me that Antonio Gates used to play basketball in college, which would be crazy. That doesn't happen. Yeah, I don't think very many people know. That's a bit of trivia, James. I had no idea about. No one's ever mentioned that. Clubs have never been known for pitching, so Greg Maddox has to be their number one, right? I think Fergie Jenkins would like a word, Rex. Come on. Such disrespect to Fergie Jenkins. I think Fergie Jenkins has a statue outside of Wrigley, not Greg Maddox. There's Kenny Gomez, 43 out of 99. Right, or three-finger Brown. Show some respect to three-finger Brown. Kevin Gomez, green grass for the Astros. Orin. Show some respect to Luke Apparicio. Or was he a, was he even a pitcher? He's a white sock, I think, actually. There is Kyler Fedko, 151 out of 499. I don't know. Maddox has got to be ahead of Pryor and Kerry Wood though, right, James? No? I don't know. Who are the best pitchers in Cubs' franchise history? Not pitchers who happen to be Cubs at one point that had great careers, but just while there were, I don't know, we should look at Cubs' records here. Robert Moore. Roger Moore? Firewind Reddy Mishmoney Penning. That's more Connery as bond. Roger Moore. No, Robert Moore. Robert Moore. More, more, more. How do you like it? That's a Brewer. That's going to go to Mark Passett and the Brew Crew. By war, if you like advanced tennis, it looks like Fergie Jenkins. See? Fergie Jenkins got it. Put some respect on Fergie Jenkins' name. We're talking baseball. Who's two on that list then? Now, if you have that list up, I think Rex might have that list up too. Fergie had 84.2 war, 284 wins, 226 losses, 334 ERA. Look, Fergie. I think he's got a statue. I think he's got a statue in front of a Wrigley. Somewhere around there. Somewhere around Wrigley. Wrigleyville. We're talking baseball. What do you got? A Marion Boyd, 49 out of 150. A little color match there. A bit. The blue helmets. Philly. That's going to be for Neil. Maddox has a 106 war. Well, how many of those wins above replacement points were with the Cubs? I feel like most of Fergie Jenkins is with the Cubs. Maddox has some good Atlanta years too. Keep talking about, yeah. Yeah. Joe Jaspy talking it up is going to up that Fergie Jenkins value. I don't think I'm moving markets though. Only 31.6 of Maddox's were for the Cubs. We're working on improving Rex's research skills. I'm glad that he named check baseball reference though. Austin Charles to 199. That's for the Royals. Jason Parker. Right. He did play for the Fergie. He did play for the Cubs longer. I think the question was who's the best Cubs pitcher, right? Jorge Ruiz to 499. Maddox doesn't even deserve to be in the same sentence as Fergie Jenkins. Empty net goal for Vegas. Although I'm pretty sure that if someone correct me from wrong, Greg Maddox won a Cy Young Award with the Cubs and then the Cubs ownership who still might be the same owners as today got cheap and did not re-sign Greg Maddox and then Atlanta re-signed and there's Brandon Walter. It's Rick T with the Red Sox. That's our fourth hit. The All America Autograph generally indicates an extra auto, which I won't complain about. All right. We made it. Final box. Box number eight for Pick Your Team 9. Pick Your Team 10 in the store right now. Old Three Finger did win two World Series with the Cubs and his third in their pitcher wins above replacement. Old Three Finger. Old Three Finger. Is Old Three Finger Mordecai Brown or is that someone else? Or is it Mordecai Brown? Nice. Who's Old Skin and Bones then? There is an old ball player nicknamed Old Skin and Bones. Not somebody else, I guess. It was a huge mistake by the Cubs. However, just like we said before, the player is like Mahomes. Patrick Mahomes? Maddox may not have gone on to be a Hall of Fame player with them. I disagree. Mahomes may not be the player he was on a different team simply because with the NFL he requires so many pieces to work in concert with the quarterback. With Maddox, I think he could have been on any mound. He could have been on a terrible, he might not have had as many wins, but I think he would have put up the same numbers. Yeah, that's different. You're comparing apples to oranges, Mr. X. I think Greg Maddox would have had a Hall of Fame career wherever he was. The wins might have been down, but with him pitching and painting corners like he does, I think he still he would have gotten the Ws. He would have gotten, he would have still had 20 win seasons, even on the worst teams. Teams would have won like 60 games and 20 of those would be for Greg Maddox. That's how good he was. But that's more of an individual ask. You know what I mean? Like pitching is less reliant upon your fellow players very different from the NFL, which requires so much to work together. Yeah, that's true. I mean, I'm sure his resume in terms of in terms of like him being on a good team certainly helps. There's a 399 John Carlistan green paper, but I would argue that he's one of those unique pitchers. That might be true for some other pitchers where you're like, eh, you know, I think he might argue that them being on a good team has helped. But I think for baseball pitchers, especially for the caliber of Greg Maddox, I don't think it would have really mattered what team it was on. No, no, no, Scott, Rex is positing, he's questioning whether Greg Maddox would have the same career he did if he had stayed with the Cubs. There's Nick Vogt with the Padres. And I'm saying, yeah, a player like him, I think he would have had a pretty similar career arc and would have been a Hall of Famer. And Sierra report in the Padres, right, pray out probably fewer wins, stats would be similar and Hall of Famer, right? I mean, like the 90s raves are like the like today's Dodgers, right? They only knocked out one World Series. So it's not like the World Series win is helping Maddox's resume. There's Max Munty to 499. Yeah, baseball is weird, Rex. I think NFL and the NBA, I think it's like, hey, how many chips did Jordan win? How many chips does LeBron have? How many chips does Brady have? You know, how many chips does Mahomes have? I think the championship conversation, I think is weighed more. There's more weight on them for players in those sports. Baseball is a little different. You know, there could be players at like, yeah, like Tony Gwynn, Kirby Puckett, Kirby Puckett won a World Series in the early 90s. Cal Ripken maybe did too. Tony Gwynn didn't. But Tony Gwynn, RIP, you know, is an example, one of probably many examples of players who are on bad teams, but you can still put up individual numbers. Having that sort of postseason hardware isn't as crucial for for a ballplayer, major league baseball players, just because it's so GD hard. To 249 out of 499, Yoanel Aponte for the Blue Jays. Yeah, Ripken did his rookie year, right? Do I consider the Bucks a failure this season? Or did Yanis's speech change your mind? Like I was saying before, right, I think, you know, and I guess I was a little tongue in cheek, but I think, yeah, I think I do feel that why do you play the game? You play the game, you count, you keep score and you keep records because you want to win championships. So I think that particular season is a failure. I think the players as an individual are not failures. They played very hard. They did very well. They, you know, they just happened to run into a hot heat team. Yanis was injured for a couple of games and that's that. So you can't call the individuals failures, but overall, you know, if the goal is to win a championship every year, and it should be, yeah, this particular season, yes, was a failure. There's a large agreeing to 150 atomic. I liked what Yanis had to say. I get what he was trying to say. You know, like you do have to appreciate the accomplishments of the regular season and how hard they work to even get to that place. There's Jason Dominguez to 299, pink paper, you know, but the goal is to win trophies and they did not, you know, 29 teams in the NBA will fail every season. Look how far, yeah, I mean, I agree Rex, but I don't know. That's just not the mentality that I have. You know, maybe, maybe as a privileged Lakers fan, you know, you know, maybe maybe I've just been, you know, naively conditioned to think that it's just championship or bus, but that's just how that's the city that I grew up in. That's just what the expectations are. You know, like 36 out of 250 Colby Thomas, Purple Chrome, and I know that LA definitely has their own advantages, you know, to be able to win those championships, but that's just how I grew up. You know, and so yeah, you can appreciate a regular season, but ultimately a season that does not end with a title is a failure. I'm not saying it's easy, 30, 29 teams in the NBA and the MLB are in a fail every year, which doesn't mean your, you know, your life is over. It doesn't mean that, but yeah, the job not job was not accomplished. You know, yeah, you can appreciate the regular season, but at the end of the day, they didn't win, but it's hard to win. I think, I think we have to acknowledge that. It can't be too hard on a team, but it is a failure. Here's the recap. There you go, ladies gentlemen, really nice break boys and girls. That was pick your team number nine. I'm Joe for jashviscasebreaks.com. I'll see you next time for the next one. Bye bye.
