| 0:24.2 | We will see you tomorrow. It's June 9th. What does that mean |
| 0:41.3 | numerically? Six nine, 2022. Nice. Nice. Jack Peter, just baseball show on the nicest day. On the |
| 0:53.9 | calendar, we're talking about, we're talking about |
| 0:57.7 | guys that started slow that are starting to heat up. We're talking to you on June 9, 6, 9 again, |
| 1:04.0 | third reference we could possibly make. We're talking about guys that might have had like that slow |
| 1:09.3 | April, maybe even the slow first two weeks of May, but it really picked it up since and looked like they're going to hit the ground running. We've also got some niche-ass splits. I hopped on the MLB research tool and just did like, okay, what's the weirdest thing I could possibly find? And I found 10 weird things, five hitting things, five pitcher things. You've got five hitters. You've got four starters and you've got a reliever. This is, yeah, it's going to be a relatively shorter episode because we're just going to fly through these. We're just going to fly through these because we have a huge episode on Friday. We are picking our early all-star game because we got to go through the American League. |
| 1:44.2 | We've got to go through the National League. It's going to be that man over there, Jack McMullen, myself, and then arms. We got a big episode for you on Friday.

| 2:13.1 | So I queued it from about May 18th. |
| 2:15.7 | And there are a lot of good players who have been crushing the ball. May 18th. All right. So that is, that's about what, 20 days? That's the last three weeks. Three weeks from today. Okay. We'll start with the slow performers and then we'll get to the splits. Fair. Well, they were slow performers. That's the point. They were slow |
| 2:35.7 | performers and now they're really starting to heat up. Right. So I'll start with the offense. |
| 2:40.9 | Yeah, perfect. Let's start with Joey Votto because Joey Votto had a 434 OPS in April with one extra |
| 2:49.3 | base hit. He was hitting 18. |
| 2:52.5 | Since May 18th, Joey Votto is slashing 298 average, 420 on base percentage, 719 slugging, |
