00:00And of the teams that don't have anything to play for, well there could very well be.
00:08You wouldn't be able to tell it by watching them.
00:10In case in point last night with the Angels and the Nats, a game in which the Nats were
00:15able to walk off 3-2 with the Angels playing at a, they're playing great here over the
00:22last couple of weeks, just coming out of taking the games against the Yankees.
00:28They are absolutely, Neto and O'Hop are absolutely crushing the ball for the Angels, but unfortunately
00:36they weren't able to get it done last night as the Nats walked them off.
00:40They are still obviously swinging and playing here.
00:44So even the teams that have nothing to play for, it seems like when they play one another,
00:51they are certainly looking for extended contracts.
00:54They are looking to be able to make a name for themselves because let's face it, in the
00:59off season, a lot of these guys currently playing on these teams may not be there again
01:06next year.
01:07And in today's game number two, get ready, it is Patrick Corbin day.
01:11And what does that mean?
01:12Well, it's fade Patrick Corbin day.
01:15Does it not?
01:16He continues to be one of the worst pitchers in Major League Baseball.
01:20He allowed what, 10 earned against the Diamondbacks last time out, four earned against the Giants.
01:28Do we trust the Angels bats to even be able to score against Patrick Corbin?
01:34Well, Griffin Canning's going on the other side and let's face it, he's got absolutely
01:40no confidence whatsoever.
01:42He has had, I don't think he has had back-to-back quality starts yet.
01:48One of the more inconsistent pitchers for this team, but Patrick Corbin is just like
01:53taking candy from a baby.
01:55Is it not?
01:56There is no way we are not looking at Patrick Corbin to give up at least four runs in this
02:03game here, which is why I am going to take the team total of the Angels up and over so
02:08we can get some runs here and laugh at Patrick Corbin.
