My name is Malcolm Bamford, come at you from Newcastle, Pontine in the North East of England. Today is Wednesday, September the 2nd. We are here to handicap a 9 game card for Thursday, September the 3rd and joining me is Mr Lonte Smith. Lonte, are we doing? Pretty good, man. I'll pretty good. One question for you before we start. Are we going to keep fading, Tatten? Oh, yes. Absolutely. Until the cows were warm, Lonte. He would talk to you now. One of my friends who is really into football, he was telling me, bro, trust me, he told

me this like... When did the season start, like two weeks ago? Yeah, we played like two games. Yeah, he told me that like a month ago, he was like bro whenever you see Tatten playing just bit the others, I'm like alright, cool. Well yeah, they played two games, they haven't scored a goal yet. Yeah, they lost a new castle on Saturday night. just me and Barry just finished the Premier League show and fated Tottenham. They're playing Nottingham Forest, he was Dylan's team at the weekend, if Nottingham Forest star about plus one 45 to beat Spurs, they're fucking clueless, Lonte. They're an absolute circus active of a football team is what they are. That's really good. Oh, I made it. It would be the happiest day of my life. Genuinely, the happiest day of my life, if they went down. And they probably won't, but we can live in Hortmeid. Good knowledge. I'm impressed, Lonte. Very impressed. But if this is a bit of a late, a show that usual Scott somehow forgot, he was at the US Open tennis. Like, I don't know how you forget you're watching tennis, but Scott,

excuse themselves late. So I very much said the Newcastle Night Talks have been brought off the bench in a lower leverage Wednesday night, nine game situation. So that's why we're a couple of hours late. So I apologize for that. We try and stay consistent. Been some days, bolder day. So I'm being, he's been in Dylan to the show last night. It's been a right mix bag. I started three, you know, and quickly and then sort of came back the other way. Partries, reds over easy athletics. I took the athletics on to our love. Jacob Lopez and who's the other keys? Are we getting him to later on out? We're getting him to be JT. Now, athletics plus 160. Then I took the Braves team to all these Gordon, nine runs. And then it started biting back the other way. So I quickly went from three, you know, back to three and three, the Phillies lost the red socks.

Let me down there on my lock. And then what a peculiar loss this was. I've had the most secure to slosh of the season in the Orioles Rockies. Took over 11 and a half. It finished six five, but the sequence of it, four runs and the first inning. So we think, yeah, here we go. And then nothing happened for hours. It was three, two in the ninth. Went to extras. Colorado tied it up, went to extras at three, three. And then there was five runs in the 11th. So we got to six five in the Rockies one. So it finished on 11. The tour was 11 and a half, but it went from big in a shoe, a fire winner to a dead duck to whatever that climax was, long story short lost. So started three, you know, back to three and three. The rule I caused to continue slumty.

Yeah, I didn't have much action tonight, but yesterday, yesterday wasn't good for me. I think I went like one in three yesterday wasn't good. I had the coves. They blew the game. I had the Orioles. They didn't show up at all. The one winner I did have was the, um, was the race, the race played really well. Oh, wait, I had two winners. I was like two and I was like two and three. I did have the over in the, um, what game in the Texas, uh, who did they play? Texas and I forgot. Yeah, flat. Was it huge athletic? Yeah, I had over seven and a half in that. That was actually my lock for the show on Monday. It was actually my lock on the show for Monday. So yeah, I went like, I went like three and four or two and three and something like that. So, but it wasn't, I felt like I had a lot more misses than, than makes. So, but overall, man, we'll get, we'll get right. We usually have good shows. So we'll carry over the momentum here. Uh, TV, DBJ has been very bullish on the Brewers all week. He fucking loves those Brewers.

Um, they're late enough now for me to watch the first hour of that. I might, but you know what? I'm going to have one of those three innings bets on day. They're going to go out to do two seasons ago. There we go. It's gonna be a fortune. Uh, I'll have it. I'll have one of those before I go to bed for a trev's in the chat. Um, welcome along. Trev, we will start by, um, mentioned in the free rule football contest. Pick every game against the spread for a chance to win up to $4,000. And it's a day at sports gambling podcast.com.

Uh, Keon, he owned it and it turned to be endlessly last night in the chat. So welcome along. The secret hit need team parles, uh, make a selections, make sure none of them suck easy. I said the dun, Neon. Yeah. There's nine games tonight. So we might as well make a nine game parley, unless there's one that you want to leave out. Yeah, I've got a couple of either roles in the pitching, uh, the start and pitching matchups here.

Um, one in this first game, particularly, which is the 1235 Eastern between the San Francisco Giants and the Pittsburgh pirates. It's played Tidwell confirmed for the Giants. Um, I had seen Carmen Blodzinski listed for Pittsburgh. But Jared Jones, who we had to cap last night, um, is also listed one or two places. So I don't know what the crack. We're Jones in there. Um, I'm not in speaking kind of go three innings. So I don't know what to open a piggyback situation, something like that. I've got the Giants at plus one 35 with Pittsburgh at minus one 65. And it's all over eight and a half. Um, the really the difference. There's not much difference if not in school Jones to do so because last night, I said, I kind of had to start feeding Jones because I'd followed him off a cliff a few times. I think he'd lost seven in a row of his starts. Um, Tidwell's metrics aren't created all the Giants have lost seven of his starts in a row.

That's a really strong trend. Mullinski pitched in a win last time, but that's the first time in forever. Um, and I still can't really trust him. Taken in over between these two teams doesn't seem like a good idea. But I think I have to fade both start and pitches in this situation. Giants have actually put a few runs on the board recently. I don't mind to over eight and a half, although, like I said, them, Lonsinski Jones thing. I would probably take the giants if you force me, um, to pick either of these two, Lonte. Yeah, I agree with you with the over, you know, both pictures are a bit erratic. If you look at Tidwell, 606, one's last four. Um, the issue, I mean, it's not a, I mean, it's an issue, but so he's not allowing a lot of hits. It's just when he's allowing hits, they're turning into like two and three run home runs because he's only a lot of four hits. So he's a lot of four hits or less in three of his last four games. So I mean, two up and down for me, I do think the offense for San Francisco has looked better. Devers is look pretty good, um, during this stretch.

Now, if it is Jones, I hate to get Jones for full disclosure. Um, but either way, I don't think it matters. I think San Francisco is live either way. But if we're looking at Jones, I mean, he's got no real length. There's any of his endings have kind of fluctuated. He only got it out of the fifth inning once in his last six. And Tidwell, you know, while he's been up and down, if you look at the small sample, but his last two road outings, he's allowed to combine rooms. So, um, you know, Pittsburgh offense did break out yesterday. I think this, I forgot how many runs at school, like 12 or 13, but I think that was an outlier performance. So I expect him to come back down to earth a little bit, but just enough so we can go over that total. So I'm with you now with the, with the over, but I like San Francisco to get it done here. I like the full disclosure. A lot of day, uh, Rubric Ocean's Jones, a little bit for you being a little on me. C. L. O. Back me C. L. O. Welcome along. Uh, good afternoon. We'll move on to game number two, which is a one 10 Eastern between the Toronto blue jays and the Cleveland guardians. Jose, sorry, I know for the blue jays takes on Tana, baby of the guardians.

This is a match on the books. It's minus 110 each of two with the tools of seven and a half or the Zineat if you want to. Yeah. I mean, Cleveland's playing good, good baseball. And I mean, one eight of the last 10, um, baby's been pretty consistent over over a stretch. I mean, if you look at his overall, you know, like last two months outside of one, one best art. He's been pretty good. Uh, had some control issues at times, but he's been pretty solid. I think it can pencil only man, you know, for six innings, you know, two or three earn. I think that's a solid outing for him. Uh, now the offense is another story like can the offense, you know, keep, keep it up. But sorry, all those not being, you know, he's not had the best ending to the month. 11 earned runs on 20 with hits in his last three. He's got a 4.13 ERA since joining Toronto. I mean, I'm just going to simple handicap from email. I'm just going to take the better team, the better, the better team that's playing right now. I think you can, you know, expect to buy me to go okay. I think he's a little bit better than what his numbers show.

So I want to take the home team who's playing a really well offense. Looks good. I'm going to take the guardians to get it done. Yeah. Again, given the choice, Cleveland would be the choice. I didn't mind the young, um, sorry, I was going okay. Seven and in three years again. Seattle is last couple of road starts haven't been the best though. Since he went across to Toronto. But consistent is the word for by the and kind of consistent in easy to read. Because like you said, he's kind of on proof six innings. You get 95 pictures on average out of him. Um, three unders in a row in his game log as well. And that feels like where this should be. Is particularly with the blue jays offense being so anemic. I think Cleveland win. Um, I preferred the pictures over the offense, which is a, the under eight. But I think the under seven and I thought this might be the seven. Um, I say Cleveland with a four to something like that for one.

And so I'll take the under Cleveland, uh, would be my, uh, moneyline pick in this one. I don't need picks in there. Cleveland are eight and 20 in the baby starts. So that's a good number. And there's a start or maybe I might just stick to the under two ten Eastern. There's cargo white socks at the Houston Astros Lewis Castile for the white socks. Takes on Hunter Brown of the Astros Astros minus one 53 white socks plus one 43. And the total here is it eight and a half. Think this was my quickest standi cap of the year. Oh, yeah. Yeah. It was like you couldn't get cute. There's no way to get cute with it, even like however you looked at it, Castillo remains on the no bet list. I mean, I assume you've got the same pick. You might, you're not going to pivot on me. Um, the metrics are awful. The game logs awful is road starts are awful.

Uh, four more earned runs last time added to the list. And Brown is put together a really good sequence lately. It was just straight forward, uh, not a prize winning pick Houston minus one 50, the unit in the half play on 10. Yeah, absolutely anywhere else. Yeah, two units and a half for me, Mal, you got to keep baking. Yeah. Yeah. One unit on the first five, one and a half on a full game. I mean, I just think that, you know, Castillo has just been, uh, you know, punching bag for, for me for the last, I don't know, two months, two, three months. But I mean, he's a lot of 24 hits in his last three, four plus earned and four of his last six. Like Houston should be able to tear him apart offensively. I think you were done to have a big day. He's kind of, you know, trying to keep that cripple, triple crown, um, home it on. So I think you'll have a good day. I think the offensive coming to play Brown has been fairly consistent. He's at two earn runs a lesson through his last four starts at home. Yeah, I just, I don't really believe, I don't know why they're trying him out there. I don't know if they want to do something different with him, but yet Castillo's not, he,

he's not that guy anymore. Um, I think the white socks made probably a bad. The decision bringing him in, but I will, we'll keep jeopardising from it. I like to, I like Houston minus that 150.

And but I've got Brandon Jung. It going for the use. London gives me the node. Baltimore plus 105 Boston minus 133 totally has eight and a half. Luntie, I need to change my mind on this pick here because I've made one, but I could very, very easily be swayed. So what if you go, oh, okay, well, I got a big, I got a big decision to make because I

don't really have a ton on this game. From a, from a side perspective, I really think that Baltimore is going to be to play Boston struggling a little bit. Bennett's coming off six scoreless, but he's been between three and four runs in his previous seven stars. I think if you look at his road numbers like the past three, it's been like three, four, three in that order. So he hasn't been below three, hasn't been above four. Now, I don't think you can do that against Baltimore who's playing really well. They've won four to last five offense has been up and down over that stretch, but they're still finding ways to win games. I like the overdo. I mean, I like young. He's, he's been pretty good, but he does have some control issues at times. He's a lot of six home runs in his last five. He's got a low K rate, which means he's going to allow a lot of contact. Boston's offense can still kind of get, get things going. They just not winning games right now. So my preferred pick would be the over, but if I had to take a side, I would pick the home dog, because I think the Orioles are in better form right now. And I probably would prefer young in this match, it was especially with him being at home.

So that was it. And what I needed talking off the red socks. And partly because I took locked him up tonight, I thought tonight looked like a really good opportunity. And they were miles behind pretty early on to pull it back a little bit, but they're still going to get beat if they haven't already. And Bennett's numbers are clearly better than youngs, like in direct comparison to each other. And then your factor in the home splits and that widens the gap a little bit more, but I still didn't want to take the red socks. I'm a fingersprint tonight. The over makes sense. That makes perfect sense. Keon's telling us five straight overs and we can make it six after tomorrow. I would think exactly the same as you that I think you'd have to play Baltimore. But we don't have to because we can play the whole thing. That's a perfectly. As a free play. 715 Eastern is Trev's Milwaukee Brewers against the Chicago Cubs.

Logan Henderson for the Brewers will take on. Kevin Gorsman of the Cubs. The Brewers are on the next page, minus 111 plus 101 for the Cubs. And the total is at eight. So we carry on here in what is a big CVs. And I thought this was another really straightforward pick. We had the captain, Mr. Aski against Peterson last night. Said don't get cute. We'll just take May's, but May's was minus 150. There's not nearly enough trustworthy efforts from Gorsman. And his game not at all to make him want to back the Cubs. Five in drones at home. Again, since then at the last time. Henderson's given up one in drone, three starts in a row. The Brewers won those starts. Six one, four, one, six, two.

It's just good enough for me. Lundy, that was all that was good enough for me. I prefer Henderson to Gorsman. Can the Cubs hit the way out of trouble possible? But why wouldn't Henderson be able to hold them like it has to and everyone else? The prices were too close together. I'll take the Brewers. Yeah, I like the Brewers too. I mean, Henderson's been, been amazing. He's got three combined his last 20 like you talked about. He's coming off one earn in seven innings, pitch versus Texas. I mean, he's dominated Atlanta and the Dodgers before that. So like, I don't see an issue with with him here. I mean, Chicago for eight to last 12, they blew six of those eight games with they held leads in, um, late in the game. So like Gorsman inconsistent. I think what five, zero, three, six, two, um, in August, his innings have also kind of fluctuated. He's he's either had four innings, pitch or seven innings, pitch is like no in between. Um, so that's something that I'm kind of concerned about. He hasn't been good and back to back starts at home. I think Henderson is aside here. I thought this was too short. I like Henderson a lot.

So I'm with Trevor with with the with the Brewers. And I do think now if the Brewers get the Dodgers, I think they're going to take them on. Yeah. Yeah, because have you seen Henderson's numbers versus the Dodgers? Yeah. Oh my God, they're amazing. Like he like, you're going to go back to back with him and me is like, I mean, I don't know the Dodgers got some firepower, but I think I like those two. London is called a shot early. I love it. Um, this next game I found really easy as well. I don't know what's good. I did this in a rush. So I don't know if we brain just sort of clicked into some sort of high performance mood or I'm going to completely focus. But I thought this was quite straightforward. You get to go first. Yes. So we'll see some for Eastern Miami, Marlins, Kansas City Royals, Sandy, Alcantra for the Marlins, Michael Wacker goes for the Royals. Miami, minus 121, Kansas City plus 110. Total is the picture got no idea. Eight and a half all the way up to nine and a half.

So it's a big old range of tools here. Lundy. Yeah. You know what? I struggle with this game now. So I'm interested to see to hear what you think. But I really struggled with this game because, you know, I'll consider he, you know, Sandy, he had a great start to August, but he ended a little bit cold. His last three, 22 hits, eight earned, a Wacker ended him up on the opposite side. And the mother really good when combined run. He's allowed either one run or four runs his last five at home. Like so it's really weird dynamic. But we know Miami struggled on the road. Royals playing a lot better. I want to take, I'm going to take Kansas City. Now I think Kansas City is, you know, playing better right now. If this was in Miami, it'd be a totally different story. I mean, obviously, you know, I like Sandy, but I think the royals are going to be side here. Wackers pitching better. Um, if you can just get, you know, not that for it. If you can get on a lower end of the forward, it doesn't have to be one, but maybe a two. I think we can get it in. So I'm going to take Walker and Kansas City.

Yeah, that was my play. Okay. I got there. I think a little bit easier than you. Um, Sandy is okay. Uh, it's last to road starts. He was got to eventually buy the nationals and the fillies. Uh, but Miami have lost his last four starts. Contrast that to the royals winning Wackers last three starts. Is last two would be an outstanding 15 innings, one in and run 16 strikeouts. Wacker looks like he's going to finish the season strong in Miami. You're a completely different team on the road. So yeah, rolls plus one 10. There's a home dog really appealed to me. Uh, El Fox is in the chat. El Fox, how you doing? Um, he's asking about the brewers. It's all brewers chat tonight. Yeah, I think we still like the brewers. Uh, travel make a case for you in the chat. Next. Under the bottom line already 805 Eastern Tampa Bay rays. And the Texas Rangers left under pitch a shame.

McLean a hand for the race will take a call control of the Rangers. Tampa Bay minus 133 Texas plus 105 with the total of seven and a half. McLean hands handicap McLean last night. Actually, his numbers are OK. He is half run worse on the road. He's been slightly inconsistent. McLean has been so inconsistent that you can't find a pattern. No, he's really tough to predict. And because it was like 300, 300, like you don't know which one it is. It's, um, however, this is where the Rangers offense helps. Because the presence of them makes me think it's more likely to bring the zero than the three. Um, poor again tonight against the athletics. Quantal has been great. The 261 homey array. Um, and I'm happy to factor in that poor Texas offense under seven and a half.

Yeah, you know what? I like that under. Um, it's hard for me to bid against the race, but I think you brought up some interesting things with the way that McLean ahead has been pitching. Um, Quantal, I've really, I mean, I like Quantal. He's got one or less in four in five of his last six, um, including a game where he only went one inning because obviously that would be six of seven, but only one ending. So I didn't count that one. Not allowing a lot of contact. And right now he's on a 13 school as in his pitch streak at home. So that alone right there, let me know that I think Quantal is going to be decide. I like under. I like under and I like the Rangers. Okay. Two more games to get to. We are brought to you by CalShi on CalShi. You can trade spreads, money lines, tools, futures and much more.

The penultimate game this evening is a 940 between the athletics and the Seattle Mariners, Jack Burkins or possibly JTGN. JTGN. Go in. Who did you want to cut me a londty? I handy-chaped. Do I have a key? Yeah, I do have a. Yep. Yeah, okay. So it looks like JTGN then going for the ace and left-handed pitch. KD Anderson for the Mariners, Londty. If you have the rookie this time. Yes, we are, man. He's not a rookie anymore. He's got a couple stars. Okay, so you can take him now. Yeah, he's got a couple stars and he's got a watch that they view. And he was really good. He had one, yeah, he had a bad, you know, ending or bad. A bad few pitches here and there, but he still held his own.

He's been super solid in his small sample, like I said. I mean, he needs to cut down on the walks, but I think that he'll do well against the athletics. Gens off extended, where is he supposed to pitch last night from that mistake? Or two nights ago? I can't remember which one. But he allows a lot of hard contact. Hasn't been horrible, but I don't think he's backable right here against Anderson. I think one of the better plays in this game out that you can get some plus money on. It's Anderson to get his first win. You'll get a really good price on that. I think Anderson gets it done. I like the way the manners have been hitting the baseball. I'm going to take them at home. Yeah, the price is short. But Dinn is hard to trust. I like Dinn. But, what, 11 Endrons in his last three starts. I don't know. This is tricky, you know. Yeah. I think I might take the athletics. Just because minus one 90s are mad old price.

I was happy to take Anderson it. What was he minus one 10 or plus one? Whatever he was on debut. This seems like a mad old price. When we're not 100% sure what we're going to get in Seattle. Or a bit shit. And the A's behind in certain spots have done it tonight. And it's almost identical price actually. Plus 160 something. It's called nine runs tonight behind Lopez. I'm going to take the athletics here. I'm going to zag might be foolish. But if I keep taking these two pitches at these prices, I think you're going to be all right. The athletics did win two of games last well against Boston. That would have been a huge fight. In fact, at Boston back on August the 9th, that would have been a massive price. Then against the twins. So two out of four plus 163 in your own profit. Long to give me the years, bollocks to the final game. Is the cowboy time 1010 Eastern first pitch between St. Louis

Cardinals and the L.A. Dodgers left handed picture. Quinn Matthews with one T will take on left handed picture. Tarek Scubal of the Dodgers minus 275. The Dodgers Cardinals plus 250. And the tools of seven and a half or eight. Did you hear Lonty at that? Tarek Scubal, you pitched that Detroit last week for the Dodgers, didn't you? He went back into the Tiger's dugout. And took his fucking espresso machine with him. What did he left it there? I've never heard of it before. How much money's he getting paid by the way? He's fucking under his arm. Say you're late. I took his coffee machine. Fucked off. Oh my god. I didn't know that. I didn't know that. It's a fucking really funny story. I mean,

you could leave it. You could probably afford a new one. I don't know. Anyway, no coffee for those bottles anymore. Tarek's at the machine away. What we talking about. So yeah, Quinn Matthews, three of his last four. Sorry, he's only had four sorts. Three of them have been really good. If you just looked at his numbers, the ARA and everything's huge, but there was one big blow up at Philly seven-air runs. And that makes everything lopsided. We're actually three quarters of what he's done. He's looked fine, so he's not without hope in this situation. Scooble will be fine. The worst thing he's done is give up three-air runs. He handled the return to the Tigers really well. And he had a nice one of home form before that. He had I think three home games in a row to give him the opportunity to settle in. The main handicap here in terms of the pick was that I think Matthews can start well. I don't mind the first five under here.

If Scooble shuts down, certainly, we start helps. But a part of his, I think Quinn Matthews might be all right, so I'll take the first five under. Yeah, and you know what, now it's a little bit of a, it's a little bit of a homecoming form. He's back home in California and went to Stanford. So he's back in his home state. I mean, I like him. He's got to clean up the walk stuff. Like he said, at least three walks in half of his starts. At least seven Ks in two of his last three. So he's got some stuff to him. Just kind of figure out like when to throw certain pitches. Now I will say, I don't know if, you know, walking guys and trying to figure out things is the right thing to do against the Dodgers, but I mean, Scooble's Scooble, like he's only allowed over one run once in his last three. So he's getting back in that good form. I definitely not laying 275 because the Dodgers have been done anything to have me, you know, one of the late 275. But I will say, I thought about taking a team total over for the Dodgers now. This is a game that I want to stay away from. But I can see a world where, you know, Matthews is maybe a little bit overwhelmed,

walks a few guys here and there. Base, Moodybets, base hit, double, sends two home and then they kind of go on a rally. So I would look at the Dodgers team total over. Definitely will not lay this type of number with them the way they've been playing for. Well, the month of August is over. So maybe they'll start a new month. So yeah, I just couldn't, I can't do it right now with that big of a price. Even what's going on in the mail? Trev's gone with the Cardinals team total over. And the Cardinals plus one and a half makes me laugh about Trev is, you're always so confident. Like sometimes right, sometimes wrong, always confident, which is fucking great. There's a rumor in the chat that Keyon Leon reckoned it was Tarik Skull's looky coffee machine which you just see wanted it back. However, if that is true, did he supply a new coffee? He didn't replace the coffee machine like take the looky one away. So there you go, Lads, there's a new one. I think he just took it away.

So there we go. Luntik, who led off? I think it's your turn. I went first the last the last. Yes. Right then. Lock me up. Well, underdog jumps out first of the Kansas City Royals at Miami. At home to Miami. Sorry, plus one ten behind Michael Wackett. I probably should have gone for the A's. But yeah, that was a bit of a reckless, reckless play. And my lock will be, oh, Houston, not winning any prizes. I'll take Houston at minus one fifty and I will take the royals as my dog, please, Luntik. Yeah, so for my lock, give me Henderson and Milwaukee minus one fifteen. We talked about that. We thought that was too short. Henderson's been great. Gosmmer's been up and down, especially at home. So I think he's, I mean Milwaukee's been having a wave with Chicago, but I think that continues here with this matchup.

I think it's the advantage matchup for Milwaukee. So minus one fifteen for Milwaukee for the dog. Give me Baltimore and the plus one of five better, better playing team right now. I just think that all things are, I think all things are going well in Baltimore right now. Not so good in Boston. So I'll take, I'll take the home dog plus one of eight small dog, but it's there. Okay. Last night took Brandon Marshall to run. The Phillies didn't hit anyone's watch. So that was disappointing. Um, right. I just looked at the start and picture home up her nine to see who we wanted a fade here. And there's already one answer is that they're all fucking hell. The boy you look at it. Multi-hormas three starts in a row. Oh, yeah, you're going to the same game. Yeah, me. It's an absolute no-brainer. Sorry, everybody. It's Lewis Kistio. I mean, come on. The blue striker put all of our children through college, even the unborn ones.

So we'll get stuck into a huge snowshow now then. As discussed, Lunté, you're a big your novelver is guy. So there's no one else either. You could add a push if you were feeling maverick. You could take young ideas. Oh, you could take Jeremy Pena. But your den alver is is blood red. So I'll take your guy, your down Lunté for tomorrow. What you got? Yeah, you know what? I was going to that game and I was probably going to look at your done. But I'm going to go a different route. I'm going to go with the guy who's hitting the ball pretty well as a late. I'm going to go with Julio Rodriguez to get it done for Seattle. He hasn't hit home runs about two weeks. But he's hitting the ball pretty good. I think that, you know, if Jen, you know, Jen's okay. I don't dislike him, but I think the bullpian, something that Julio can get to. So let go of Julio Rodriguez to hit a bomb tomorrow. Excellent. Thank you very much, mate.

I appreciate you waiting for me, Lunté, because you're hanging around as well. So thanks very much for that. Scott will then do my show tomorrow. So I'm going to evening off, which is handy. Thanks, Lunté. Thanks everyone in the chat. It made me laugh again. Good luck with your baseball bets. 20 minutes away from watching three innings of Mr. Oskie. Again, Pete is still looking forward to that. 20 minute winner before bed, Lunté. And we'll see you all time the road.
