0:16.8	All right back to your phones, as promised, Felger and Maz.
0:20.2	Wally and Fall River on the Sox. Go ahead, Wally. Yeah, what's up, guys? A couple of things I want to hear on with the rest. First of all, Blake's Whitehall, what do with this guy? This guy's in the Twilight Zone. But as far as all these games, these games count. We only won the division by two games last year. but if we take two out of three, I think it'll be a miracle. I'd be happy with one game. But you look at the bottom of the other than it's a black hole again. You get three guys with, what, Nunes, Leon, Vasquez, and you got J.B.J., they got 15 RBIs between them if they're lucky. But definitely J.B. Day has to be on the bench for these three games. But I'm just wondering, you're looking at Mookie Betts. He's got, what, 13 home runs? He's our lead off hitter. But the bottom of the order, really, once you go through that order once, the table setters are at the bottom of the order. These guys don't get on base.
1:11.8	This guy's going to have what, at the most of the RBI.
1:28.5	Okay, well, I'm just going to stop you there. So you mentioned the catching in the bottom of the order. They're sort of tied together.

1:31.6	ERA. That
1:33.4	Vasquez and Leon are the worst offensive
1:35.3	duo in the majors is largely
1:37.1	incidental. They are.
1:39.2	They're dead blasting OPSA catcher.
1:41.4	What does he mean by saying
1:42.8	the fact that they're the worst offensive duo is largely incidental, meaning... Defense is more important, maybe? Irrelevant. Yeah, I don't know what he means, but... That's what he means. He says the league average for a major league to finish. The league average for a major league catcher is 228 with a 679 OPS.
2:02.4	So what he's saying is all catchers suck offensively.
2:09.0	As teams get more sophisticated with using analytics, a catcher's primary job is to carry out the game plan with the pitcher's offense is a bonus.
