00:00All right, we'll go to Seattle and then we'll end it up in Chicago.
00:05I won't tell you which side though, Joe, take it away.
00:08I'm still buying Julio Rodriguez.
00:10I I'm just buying him.
00:11He's too good of a player.
00:12They are just not pitching to him.
00:14And when you don't have to pitch to a guy, that's the one guy in the order who can beat
00:17you.
00:18Eventually this is going to change.
00:19And when that other back comes in and it will come in here, things will be different for
00:22him.
00:23Two 64 batting average, seven homers, 29 RBI, a six 65 OPS.
00:27That's not what you signed up for, for Julio Rodriguez this year, a little line of protection
00:31goes a long way.
00:32He needs it desperately.
00:33They have to go and help this kid.
00:35He doesn't have anyone around him.
00:37And this is true of any team and any great player judge and Soto feed off each other.
00:42You know, whenever you have good line of protection, that's going to help the other guy.
00:45And Luis Robert, who's that guy that I want desperately is another player that has not
00:49played anywhere close to what he's capable of.
00:52Luis Robert, again, dealing with injuries this year.
00:55He has been a guy that's been sluggish to come back here.
00:58He's sitting under 200 on the season, seven home runs.
01:01But I'm looking at him also as a player that's finally healthy, that in the month of June
01:06still might be hitting, you know, a buck 80, but that's not who Luis Robert is.
01:10If you go back and look at last year's stats, Luis Robert is the guy that hit 38 home runs
01:15last year.
01:16Okay.
01:17Luis Roberts stole 20 bases last year.
01:19He had two 64.
01:20He is a far better player than he's shown you so far, and he will get better as the
01:24season goes on.
