00:00All right, so that being said, we're watching Mike Trout take down the A's.
00:03Gray, would you trade Trout right now in a fantasy league?
00:07Would you get out of it and say, ah, you know, I'm not buying 2017 here.
00:12He's got six home runs already.
00:13Let me dump.
00:14Would you do that?
00:16Yeah, you know, actually, I have a magic eight ball,
00:19and it says Mike Trout's going to be injured after his 14th home run.
00:23So you have roughly a week and a half.
00:27I can't, but I do think Mike Trout is like, you know,
00:33if history is what, you know, what can predict the future,
00:38I mean, you do see the injuries just like every year just pile up.
00:42You know, I mean, it's impossible to expect more than, I want to say, 80 games.
00:47You know, it'll be a good 80 to 100 games maybe, but it's not really,
00:53like you're not going to get a full season.
00:54So you're probably looking at maybe roughly, I don't know, 27 to 32 homers,
01:01a 260, 265 average, you know, maybe 65 to 65 runs in RBIs.
01:08It's fine.
01:09It's not terrible, but you just can't expect a full season.
01:12If for a prorated small sample size type season, like an 85 game season,
01:19it's going to be good if you can, you know, in a shallower league where you can get a guy off of waivers
01:25and not have to worry about, you know, whether or not you can replace Mike Trout,
01:30then I would acquire him in a league like that.
01:32But in a deeper league where you go to waivers and you see nothing,
01:36then in that league, you're going to have a harder time replacing Mike Trout.
01:40So he becomes a little bit less valuable there.
01:42But yeah, I mean, you know, I think at this point you kind of,
01:46you understand what you're getting, you know?
01:49Gray, earlier this week, we saw Fernando Tetes Jr.
01:52take a swing and collectively we all took a sigh because it did not look like it was a very easy experience for him.
02:00There was immediate pain.
02:01And then immediately he was, well, it's a surgically repaired shoulder.
02:05It's going to be day to day.
02:06We hope we get him back in a couple days.
02:08Now he actually did come back yesterday and hit a home run.
02:11So it was all well now with Fernando Tetes Jr.
02:14Or should everybody be a little concerned about him going forward too?
02:17He got off to a great start.
02:19This was starting to feel like, wow,
02:20could we get a full great season for Fernando Tetes without any nonsense?
02:24And sure enough, there was a little bit of nonsense right as we started to think that.
02:28So where are you at with that panic button when it comes to Fernando Tetes?
02:31Yeah, that's a good question.
02:35You know, I have a harder time with Tetes than I do with Trout predicting whether or not he's going to be injured.
02:41It's hard to say.
02:42Like, you know, we have had a lot of partial seasons from Tetes.
02:47One was, you know, his, you know, the PEDS suspension.
02:51Another was, you know, because of his motorcycle riding wasn't up to snuff, I guess.
02:57I, you know, I like Tetes a lot.
03:00He's so exciting.
03:02I, I do think the Padres seem like they're running a lot more this year.
03:05Like Machado, I think has like six steals already, which is, you know, a roughly a 60 steal pace from Manny Machado, which obviously that won't continue.
03:16But, I mean, that's nice.
03:17But back to your question with Tetes, it's really a difficult one.
03:22I don't know.
03:23I don't know what to expect.
03:24I would say, you know, if, if you have them, I guess you ride it out unless someone's willing to pay draft day price, which was roughly, you know, in the top 12 overall.
03:37And, you know, in a 12 team league, say like $35 on an auction.
03:42So, yeah, I mean, you're probably not going to get the, I don't think you're going to get draft day price again.
03:47So, I would be probably looking to hold and you just hope you get like a full season.
