“… in my other NFBC league, like a little, like to mix it up a little. I'd like to have, well, you know what? I'd like to have a team that starts with Juan Soto or Jose Ramirez. Either one would be fine with me. I don't think I have a team that I'm playing out that has Juan Soto yet. I have a lot of Juan Soto already, so it could be even more. It's out of our hands. I'm picking sixth in TGFBI, and I think I started Juan Soto, Nick Kurtz. Or no, sorry, Ronald Acuna, Nick Kurtz. So I wouldn't mind a Soto. You know it would be wild here. Hey! If he took Tarek Skubal, I was going to say. All right, so Jose …”

“… on this team are going to find some opportunity. And if a couple of them click, that very much changes their outlook, along with the safety nets of Soto, Lindor, Bichette. Like, I get it. I get it. I also think the division is a factor here. Like, the Braves kind of laid down last year. I don't know if you get that again. But it's going to be a very interesting, very interesting season for the New York Mets, as it always is. Jolly says they're going to win the division. He said he never said that on a microphone.

Well, a pre-apology for me. 90 and a half. I mean, I got to take the over because I, if I'm just going to continue to say, I believe in this team, it means they're going to win more …”

“Yeah. Which, okay, so that segues. DR's got momentum going. Soto's about to come out with two on. Skeens, like, second time seeing Skeens for these DR guys. There's really not anyone in the world if they don't get three looks at them. They're not going to give you an at-bat. In the fourth inning, so you get three clean from Seve.

“… Pirates. There was a report that Dennis Santana is not going to be the go-to closer. I'm skeptical of that, but it's something to watch.
