00:03Another World Series preview, perhaps it's the Guardians and
00:07the Phillies in the city of brotherly love this weekend.
00:12The Phil's have lost three straight series on either side
00:15of the break. Not great for the Phil's to the twins and the
00:19Pirates since returning from the break to the Oakland
00:22Athletics before the all-star break and we shared the
00:25Guardians just split their four game set with the Detroit
00:29Tigers, but they are not playing great baseball at this
00:32moment, but it's still a World Series preview because the
00:34Phil's have the best record in the National League in all of
00:37the bigs Cleveland enters this weekend set at 61 and 41 tied
00:41with Baltimore for the best record in the American League.
00:44The fight is a hefty home favorite today at minus 178
00:48will Philly make good on that price and take the opener
00:51should be able to do that bank because Sanchez is on the mound
00:54that he is the true number three pitcher right now in the
00:56Philadelphia Phillies. Take a look at the season 446 batters.
01:00He's faced having an ISO of 077. That's it. Like that's not
01:0444 batters. That's almost 450 batters weighted on base
01:07percentage 283 low walk percentage even over the past 30
01:11days ISO power number climbs per se 2.106, which is fantastic.
01:16You take a look at the way to don't base percentage actually
01:17drops to a 277 and you're getting Cleveland at the right
01:21time with that offense really isn't clicking outside of the
01:23first three guys Kwan Martinez and Ramirez. They have high
01:27ISO power numbers. Not a lot throughout the rest of that
01:30lineup to love you. So Sanchez should be able to keep them
01:32down that the question is going to come here as I just told
01:34you better picture on the mound is Sanchez, but lively has
01:37been average at best a 106 exit minus number over the past
01:4160 days of 4 era of 4.35, but this is an affiliate lineup.
01:45That's absolutely battering the baseball and lively is a
01:48right-handed pitcher, but how about this past 30 days Trey
01:51Turner Bryce Harper Nick Castellanos and Brandon Marsh
01:54everybody else not doing so hot and that includes Kyle
01:57Schwarber you would figure left-handed batter gun. It's
02:00right-handed pitching. How about a 125 ISO? That's not
02:03Schwarber like how about a weighted on base percentage of
02:05226. That's not great either something has to give tonight.
02:08I'm going to trust the Philadelphia Phillies playing
02:10well at home with a good pitcher on the mound should be
02:13able to beat the Guardians today because again Guardians
02:15not coming in a great form here. Give me the Phillies today
02:18over the Guardians.
02:21Yeah.
