00:03 >> Royce Lewis back with the twins.
00:05 This is one of those, if he can only stay healthy deals.
00:08 There's no question that he's gonna be probably the most talked about player.
00:14 I think Davis again going into next year's fantasy drafts too.
00:17 Like this is the same sort of thing every year.
00:20 This was his story in the minors too.
00:22 Very hard to stay healthy, but when he's on the field,
00:24 he's an elite player in the game.
00:27 He is, I mean, isn't it so funny that the twins are actually having this way above
00:32 average season, not what we would have anticipated from them where they're
00:36 hanging with the, I mean, they're more than hanging with the Royals and
00:39 the Guardians.
00:39 They are right in the thick of it in this division.
00:42 With Byron Buxton being healthy and not playing well, and
00:45 Royce Lewis getting injured on the opening day of the season.
00:48 I mean, Lewis has been called up since 2002.
00:53 He is maxed out at 200, I mean, he's got 293 plate appearances in the major leagues.
00:59 Crazy enough, he's got 20 home runs in those plate appearances, and
01:03 the six stolen bases.
01:04 You're totally right.
01:05 I mean, this to me, Craig, this is like I'm a moth to a flame to a talented,
01:10 fast middle infielder who hits for a little bit of power.
01:13 I mean, come on, I would never be able to quit this guy for fantasy baseball.
