00:00But listen, Sonny Gray, 16-3, he has been ridiculously lights out for the Red Sox.
00:09But Marlins have been feisty here.
00:11They are at home.
00:12Gusto hasn't been terrible.
00:14Got a lot of swing and miss stuff here.
00:16So I don't know.
00:17I give him a puncher's chance here to get it done.
00:19I certainly do.
00:21Sonny Gray has been great.
00:23Last night's game was also crazy with an extra inning was at a Grand Slam by Jaron Duran.
00:30So the Marlins need this game.
00:33They are sitting, what is this, four back now in the NL wild card.
00:37The Dimebacks are in a spot to win.
00:39The Padres are in a spot to win.
00:41The Phillies are in a spot to win.
00:42So they are chasing everyone down or trying to chase everyone down.
00:46Miami, as you said, over the past month against righties, they were 101 WRC plus.
00:52So they're literally right at league average.
00:53But, man, Sonny Gray has been almost too good for me to look the other way and say,
00:58I want to bet on the other team.
01:01Sonny Gray with a 2-8-1 ERA over the last 30 days is unbelievable.
01:06Could he do his thing and we take a first five under and maybe the Marlins come back and win
01:10just because,
01:11oh, it's baseball, weird stuff happens.
01:13They tied the game last night late and they let it get away in extra innings and they just happen
01:16to win tonight.
01:17Sure.
01:18But give me a first five under in that game.
01:21I don't mind that look at all here.
01:24I think that's a pretty good way.
01:25But, yeah, Boston been really good last couple of weeks against right-handed pitching.
01:30Miami, not so much.
01:3117th has not been great, but got to play the games one way or the other.
01:39Waldron is fascinating to me here that he's even back in Major League Baseball.
01:44But there he is for Washington taking on Tanner Gordon.
01:48Washington has just been terrible offensively over the last couple of weeks.
01:52I don't know even against Tanner Gordon that I can trust a whole lot from Washington here at this point.
01:58You?
01:59I really can't.
02:00I just want to note that I am seeing that Waldron is going to be an opener for the Nats.
02:06And Will Dion is going to be coming in behind him and he's a lefty.
02:10So, you know, take that account into your handicap out there.
02:14That does play a part.
02:16But this offense for both of them really have been bad.
02:20The Nats against righties right now, they're terrible at 22nd in the league.
02:25The Rockies versus lefties are sitting at 25th in the league.
02:29The runs may be hard to come by, you know, at face value.
02:33But the bullpens are so bad that we know anyone can score runs on them.
02:36I mean, it's only eight and a half tonight instead of the nine and a half, which we had last
02:39night.
02:41Yeah, it's actually the fact that they're bringing in a lefty.
02:46I mean, they have been a little bit better against lefties.
02:48But Washington offensively has been anemic here over the last couple of weeks.
