Welcome to the Monday of Nailbag show, we're recording this on Friday June 30th.

You are listening on Monday July 3rd and everybody enjoy your Independence Day.

You won't be hearing from us that frees up an hour for you to go and set off fireworks and have fun safely with your family and friends and eat good food because

for the July is about food. Let me tell you about Buffalo Wild Wings. Sports trades are scary. One person can be replaced by another exchange for money or given away for a hypothetical future person.

That's always weird. Once they leave your team you can't like them anymore even if you have their jersey which you can't wear anymore except at B-Dubs.

They won't judge but others might Buffalo Wild Wings, Wings, Beer, Sports. Atom Acer with Scott White and Chris Towers.

Hello guys, happy 3rd of July. Hello. One last day to be dependent on us before you celebrate your Independence from everything.

Is it a bad look if I point out that July 4th is my birthday and nobody got me anything? Nobody cares about your birthday. It's only July 3rd Chris. We still have time to get you something.

I expect something in my mailbox. It's Friday right now and a lot of stuff is going to happen over the weekend and we're not going to know about it. I already predicted a closer would be traded.

I'm just going to tell you that Addison Reed is probably going to keep closing for the nationals so don't worry about it.

Don't joke this like that. Come on. I want to have a quiet weekend. Nobody wants to have to open their laptop at all during the weekend.

Nothing's going to happen. I volunteered to write the article for Scott and he's like, give me a break. It's something like that.

Are you going to address as fantasy baseball at CBSI.com? Let's do some baseball talk here. We'll do by our cell which I was going to put in the Wednesday show or Thursday show but I saved it for today and a lot of your emails.

Hey real quick though first. Hey real quick. I'm going to give you an option to players. They have pretty similar slash lines. They're both top five in their position. One of them has more walks than strikeouts and one of them doesn't and one of them has terrible that same one who doesn't has terrible platoon split. So who would you rather have Anthony Rendon or Jake Lamb?

If you're telling me this lash line is similar. I'm taking the guy with the good plate discipline always always. Well then you have to take you have to take Rendon over lamb then.

Without you do that without even getting into the fact that Anthony Rendon has a track record of this. This is what three three seasons now being pretty close to at least a top 10 third baseman.

Well I would have to disagree that he has a track record of this. He is as of Friday morning. Anthony Rendon is having an unbelievably good year. He's got a 402 on base.

He has a 508 slugging percentage and he had that three home or game. His number since then 50 games. That's the crazy 1061 OPS. He has a 1061 OPS not including the game where he hit three home runs and had a double going six for six with 10 RBI.

This is clearly his best season and lamb. Lamb did this last year before he heard his wrist or I think it was his wrist right. Yeah. So they're both been good. But are you prepared to tell me that you would rather have Rendon than lamb.

Yes. And I we all have wavered from that. Yeah. We all had Rendon above lamb before the season nothing we've seen. I think you just like lamb too much. I didn't really have lamb one spot behind Rendon. So it's not like a huge but there is a gap there like that's that's one of the spots where there's there's a chain.

It certainly feels like lamb's floor is quite a bit lower than Rendon's. All right. Well lamb does enter Friday as the number one third baseman in in fantasy number two and points behind Aaron Otto number one in Roto. And actually I've been seeing some questions. People.

I don't think people realize how good Anthony Rendon has been for two months now. And I don't think they realize that he has as a Friday more walks and strikeouts. So I don't know if that's just a fluke or if this is a legit like maybe post type breakout. He's healthy and.
