| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Rates at Beryl's Tuesday, July 18th, Derek Van Riper here with Edom Seris, Chris Welsh. It is Project Prospect on this Tuesday. If you're watching us on YouTube, yes, my background is empty. No, I am not in harm's way. I am fine. I am well. This wall is supposed to be bare. My things are on a truck. They're somewhere west of St. Paul, Minnesota right now. So Thursday, I will have |
| 0:39.1 | things back. Hopefully by Friday, I'll even have some things behind me on this nice blank canvas |
| 0:44.0 | I have. It'll be more exciting than my California backgrounds, too. I promise everyone that. I don't |
| 0:48.1 | know what it's going to be, but it's going to be at least half as good as what well should Eno |
| 0:53.3 | have in their respective backgrounds. |
| 0:55.7 | But we figure we're going to do a lot on this show, including some project or some prospect |
| 1:00.9 | promotions between levels and a few more adjustments coming out of the futures games. |
| 1:05.2 | We'll talk about a few players who've moved up. I want to do a mid-season check-in on a few |
| 1:09.1 | prospects that we haven't talked a lot about on this show over the course of the season. We've got some trade tips since we're really at that point now, where if you haven't been making trades already, you're certainly thinking about it now in Keeper, Dynasty, and even redraft leagues. And we've got at least one mailbag question. We're going to squeeze into this episode as well. But we begin with a prospect |
| 1:28.1 | promotion. Jacob, Misarovsky, I missed him by just a couple of weeks. He is no longer in |
| 1:34.8 | Wisconsin. He has been bumped up to double A. A lot of people got to see him pump some gas during that |
| 1:40.2 | futures game a couple of weeks ago. And look, I think as far as your pitching prospects in the miners go, he's one of the |
| 1:47.3 | biggest risers so far this season. |
| 1:49.5 | And now the hype is probably all the way behind him because as Welsh and I discussed |
| 1:53.0 | prior to the futures game, there was a lot to like here. |
| 1:56.1 | And now he's done it on an elevated stage. |
| 1:58.8 | So Welsh, where do we go from here with Mizorowski? Do you think |
| 2:02.8 | he's probably on the radar for a call-up, maybe by this time next year, based on his current trajectory? |
| 2:09.2 | No doubt about that. I think there's even, I mean, I don't think this is going to happen, though |
| 2:14.1 | this would be very AJ Smith-Shavre-like. There's some people that are just kind of floating around, like, maybe they even try to |
| 2:21.2 | push a little squeeze in this season. |
| 2:23.3 | You know, maybe he's just moving. |
