00:00Kansas City and the Angels have now won, what, three in a row?
00:03And put together a little winning streak here, Kansas.
00:06Right?
00:07I mean, as long as they're playing Texas, apparently, they're good to go.
00:11I guess.
00:11But Lugo against Grayson Rodriguez with nearly a 7.5 ERA.
00:18And as bad as maybe both these pitchers are,
00:21I still can't trust them, Craig, to score nine runs in this game.
00:24It's still an under for me.
00:26Yeah, I mean, this is the worst game on the board right here.
00:28So, yeah, you wouldn't think so.
00:31My only concern would be late in the game.
00:33Neither team has good relief pitching.
00:34So you can see that game sort of exploding after the fifth inning.
00:39Angels play a little bit better.
00:41Like I said, I saw them.
00:42I thought that they were better than their record indicated.
00:45They've made a lot of changes.
00:46In fact, after they got crushed by Miami,
00:49they fired all their coaches, pitching staff, Mike Maddox, too.
00:52So that's another thing, too,
00:54is that you would think that their pitching could, you know,
00:57potentially change a little bit.
00:59They want to go more analytical.
01:01And right now they, for whatever reason,
01:04John Moselak, the new GM or interim GM,
01:07didn't like the fact that they weren't using the data that they had.
01:10I guess that's what was reported.
01:11Now that's going to change.
01:13I don't know that that means the pitchers will be better.
01:14But, you know, certainly data can't hurt.
01:16Mike Maddox, great pitching coach for a long time,
01:19including in St. Louis under Moselak.
01:21That was a little weird that I guess he got fired twice,
01:24once by him in St. Louis and now by him with the Angels.
01:27But, you know, the Angels,
01:29at least for the first time in a while,
01:30are playing young kids.
01:31And hopefully their future is brighter than what it is right now.
