00:00 The Phillies and the Blue Jays are next.
00:02 And I'm very interested to see how you feel Aaron Nola matches up against Toronto.
00:07 Because Donnie, this is someone whose home road splits are not good when you consider
00:11 this is a road baseball game here against a Toronto team that I feel like you've been
00:16 flirting with more and more when it comes to RBI shots or team totals.
00:21 What do you think of Toronto Gausman going up against Philadelphia and Aaron Nola?
00:26 You got to lean towards the Toronto Blue Jays.
00:28 And even though you take a look and say, "Hey, the Phillies are the leaders in the wild card."
00:31 This is what they do at times.
00:32 They go through a swoon.
00:33 After a nice Friday night offensive output against the Minnesota Twins for the Phillies.
00:37 Saturday, what did they do?
00:39 Nothing.
00:40 Sunday, what did they do?
00:41 Basically nothing again.
00:42 And then last night, one run, basically nothing here.
00:44 You had a Zach Wheeler performance that you wasted.
00:46 But by the way, you say Cucucci, he's having a phenomenal past six to seven weeks in Major
00:50 League Baseball.
00:51 And that might be something to look forward to for that team as they head maybe towards
00:53 a playoff march.
00:54 But today, Aaron Nola, completely untrustable.
00:56 He's supposed to be the ace of the staff.
00:58 He wanted a major contract extension before the season began.
01:01 They weren't able to come to it and he hasn't performed like that.
01:04 So if I'm just looking and keeping it simplistic today, another really good pitcher on the
01:08 mound to face the Philadelphia Phillies who are struggling at the plate.
01:11 You don't just wake up against Kevin Gaussman on the road.
01:13 I lean towards, even though that price point here says, you know what?
01:15 The Phillies might be worth a swing at that dog price.
01:17 I'm not taking the Phillies today.
01:19 I don't trust him at the plate.
01:20 Three straight games of bad.
01:21 I'll wait till they get back on a roll on offense.
