Starting point is 00:00:00 How many home runs will Cal Raleigh hit? How many times will Logan Gilbert get deep into starts? And will the Marers win more than 90 games? We'll discuss that and more coming up here on our 2026 over under show. Colby, edit. You are Locked-on Mariners. Your daily Seattle Mariners podcast. Part of the Locked-on Podcast Network, your team every day.
Starting point is 00:00:28 Ahoy, Sailors, it is Wednesday, March 11th, 2026. You're listening to the Lockdown Marers podcast for the Lockdown Podcasts. Podcast Network now, the number one sports podcast network. My name is Siding Gazzalas, and I'm joined as always by my co-coast, Colby Patnode. We're two Lifeline Maris fans who have been covered the team for over half a decade. And today, it's time for our yearly over-under episode. I've put together 15 props for Colby and I to talk about. We'll do five per segment.
Starting point is 00:00:52 These are not real props as far as I'm aware, at least. This is also not gambling advice. So I want to make that clear. These are just random props that I created based primarily off of vibes and also just kind of what I felt made the most sense and what I thought was the most fun. They're also based off of a lot of talking points that we've had this off season, for sure. And I think we have a pretty good balance of, you know, individual props and then team props, specifically offensive props, pitching props, and then, you know, overall team props.
Starting point is 00:01:24 There's also a couple returning ones from previous over under episodes as well, bringing back a couple of favorites. Now, before we get into these, I want to shout out our title sponsor today, MLB, the show 26. Visit MLBT. com slash locked on and use the promo code locked on. That's O-C-K-D-O-N to unlock a pack-free use in Diamond Dynasty. Pre-order now, available March 17th on PlayStation 5, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch. Ritted E for everyone. Let's start with this one.
Starting point is 00:01:52 Josh Naylor, 19 and a half stolen bases. Stole 30 last year, of course. His previous career high before that was, I believe, 10. So let's split the difference. you think he gets to 20 20 plus taking the under I think you double it
Starting point is 00:02:10 and you have a good over under because in a third of the season he stole 60 he was on pace to steal 60 I should say yeah yeah so yeah I mean like you know could he steal 60 and 162 games
Starting point is 00:02:27 with the Mariners maybe I mean I think it's possible I'm going to take the over. I think we're going to get the 2020 Josh Nailer year again. Okay. All right. You want to put a specific member on it? 22.
Starting point is 00:02:44 22. Okay. I like it. I like it. He's an incredibly smart base runner, just an incredibly intelligent baseball player in general. And I think that ultimately leads, despite his second percentile sprint speed,
Starting point is 00:02:58 I think that ultimately leads to him stealing quite few bags this year. I don't think he gets 30 again, but yeah, I like the 22 call. I'll say, yeah, somewhere between 20 and 25 for sure. Also, think about how many bases he stole last year when he came from Arizona. How many of them were even like contested? Like how many even like came close to getting him? I, they don't remember that many where I was like, oh, got to go to replay on that one. That was close. Like, no, he just, he walked in on a couple of stolen bases. Yeah. you know, including stealing third base. Didn't he also do that in the,
Starting point is 00:03:32 in spring a couple weeks ago? Didn't he just like walk into third? Yeah. He swiped third a couple times, including off Derek Scoobel, which they needed to have happened because Arbor only had to hit a sack fly, which he did.
Starting point is 00:03:46 And so, yeah, Josh Naylor, you know, the best base stealer since Ricky Henderson, apparently. Clearly, clearly. Josh Naylor is speed. that's what speed do that's right that's right
Starting point is 00:04:01 yeah so I'm high on Josh Naylor being you know a 20 plus stolen base guy again how about that why not all right how about a Domcan zone we've talked a lot about him this this off season how about 112.5 WRC plus so that would be the middle ground
Starting point is 00:04:19 between his first two years combined and then this past year when he was a 141 WRC plus I feel like that's a that's a good prop for him. I am going to hammer the over. 1.30 plus for Dom Kanz out. He is a breakout candidate, even though he literally already broke out last year.
Starting point is 00:04:50 Now, at times this offseason, Colby, you've talked about, you know, sending him down. You don't have to have Dom Kanzal on this roster. Because the Grasley is going to have a 150 WRC plus. Oh, wow. So, I couldn't, I couldn't think of a good,
Starting point is 00:05:04 Luke Rayleigh prop because I came up with this one first and I didn't want to repeat stats you know I didn't want to repeat WRC plus props 115 WRC plus for Raley like I was also thinking of one I was also thinking of like a Victor Robles Luke Raleigh type of like combo prop or something like that like a war or something yeah yeah I was trying to figure that out but yeah Luke Raleigh spoiler alert not on this list today once again Luke Raleigh remains greatly disrespected on this podcast on every other podcast But in seriousness, Dom-Kanzone, 112 and a half, I think over. But I think it's like a 115 to 120.
Starting point is 00:05:42 I don't think he's getting a 140 again. I'd be pretty surprised by that. But, you know, he's looked pretty good this spring. And I feel like we know who Dom Kanzone is. He's going to have games where he looks like the worst player on the planet, including some of the worst swing decisions and actual swings we've ever seen in our life. And then he's just going to, you know, hit a couple of nukes every week. And he'll be like, oh, well,
Starting point is 00:06:03 as long as he's not out there in right field running around like a baby giraffe, you feel okay about that production. So I think he's mostly going to DH. I think he's mostly going to face right-handed pitching, not that he can't hit left-handed pitching, just kind of the way they built the roster. And I think there's going to be enough, like, lineup protection around him that you're kind of want to pitch to him.
Starting point is 00:06:24 Sure. So, yeah, I think Canzone, I think he's going to be good. I could see him being very similar to what Luke Grayley was in 2024, just a, you know, surprisingly underrated hitter who doesn't play, it doesn't get 600 played appearances because of platoon splits and whatnot. But he extends the lineup just like you need them to. So yeah, I think Canzone is going to have a, I would classify it as a good, not great year from Canzone. Last year was kind of a great year for Canzone. Yeah, well, Switch over on Twitter is going to get mad at me because I am going to take the under here on, on Dom Canzone.
Starting point is 00:06:58 But only slight, only slight. I think he winds up in like a 107, 110 range, mostly because I don't think he's going to hit for a high average. I think the homers, the power overall is going to carry him to a slightly above league average WRC plus. Makes a good amount of contact and he hits the ball hard. So that's usually a good formula to hit for some average, but is it going to hit 300? Yeah. No. I'm thinking it's feeling more like a 250.
Starting point is 00:07:26 Yeah, yeah. But I think he could slug like 500 and that obviously would. jump on. And then it comes down to how many walks does he take? How about Cal Raleigh? 41 and a half home runs for the big dumper. So this is the median of his last three home run totals. Yeah. I think I'd take the over, but just barely.
Starting point is 00:07:52 It kind of feels like a 42 home run season for Cal. I think, you know, in general, if this was a prop present, it to me in one of the lovely states where you could gamble on sports, some of the unlovely ones, too, that I probably wouldn't place like an actual wager on this because it feels like this is the line. Like, this is the accurate line. Yeah, I would not touch this in real life. No, it feels like Cal is going to hit somewhere between 38 to 43, give or take. So this one pretty much splits the middle there. So I'm going to take the over.
Starting point is 00:08:30 I think he gets to like 42, 43. I don't think he's getting to 50. He's certainly not getting to 60 again. He's not getting to 50. I've seen nobody say he's getting to 50. Nobody I respect anyway. So yeah, it's just kind of one of those things where this is probably the accurate line. It's the right line and I just don't want to touch it.
Starting point is 00:08:48 I'm looking for value when I'm making picks like this. And this is not value. This is like get on. So I'm going to skip this one in real life. But for this exercise, I'll take the over, but just barely. I'm feeling 45, but yeah, like you, I would not touch this in real life. But since we're just having fun on the show today, yeah, sure, why not? 45 farmers for Cal so I'm taking the over.
Starting point is 00:09:12 All right. How about Julio Rodriguez, three and a half F4 in the first half? Now, this old F4 doesn't really matter. All I'm really asking here is do you think that Julio's going to have as red hot of a start to the season as he did in his rookie year? Because that's what he did in his rookie year going into the all start. like three and a half out four. Yeah. So it's been three full seasons since he's done that.
Starting point is 00:09:35 In the other three seasons, he's been, what, a two, two and a half one player? So I think he'll be better in the first half than he was in each of the last three years. But until I see him do it again, I'm going to assume that 2022 is the outlier in this, you know, and say, Julio is traditionally a slow starter. And I think he'll be off to a quicker start this year. I'm not going to put him on, you know, MVP watch until I actually see him, like, do it in the first half. And Julio's the type of guy who could have a five-win first half. Like, that is within the range of possibilities for him.
Starting point is 00:10:12 But I just think, you know, you want to play the odds as you do when you do over-unders. Hashtag not gambling advice. I cannot stress that enough. That I think this is like, I probably wouldn't bet on this one, IRL, just because, like, yeah, he could pop. but I'll just wait. I'll wait and see how it goes. But for us today, I'll take the under. But I do think he'll push about three,
Starting point is 00:10:36 F-4. I don't think he'll be down in the two range, which is traditionally where he is. So improvement, yes, three and a half, I think slightly under. I think three is the safe spot here for Julio. So yeah, I'll take the slight under on Julio.
Starting point is 00:10:50 Would love to be proven wrong on that, though. Absolutely. And by the way, if you're watching, play along down in the comments below. I'll just know what your answers are. We don't really care, but it's good for the algorithm. All right. Our last offensive prop is Cole Young and Cole Emerson, two and a half F-4 combined.
Starting point is 00:11:08 Yeah, I think I'll take the over because I feel like Cole is going to be at least a two-win player. And I mean, Emerson, to get a half a win, if he's just an above-average defender in the infield, he probably gets there with enough playing time, of course. Sure, sure. It's kind of the X factor in this one. Does he get 50 games? Does he get 100 games? Like, we don't know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:26 When is he going to get called up? Yeah. I'll take the over still. I'm relatively bullish on Cole Young. Yeah. Yeah, I think Cole's going to be a lot better defensively, know that he's seemingly healthier and just in better shape overall. And I think Colt will at least,
Starting point is 00:11:42 at the very least, he'll have maybe a couple weeks stretch or a month stretch where he's actually pretty good. And then, you know, maybe it kind of goes like Cole Young's season last year where, you know, there's a lot of peaks and valleys. But I think he would be good enough at the very
Starting point is 00:11:58 least to get about a half win, maybe even a full win. And I think they could absolutely get to the smart. But yeah, I'm actually pretty high on Cole Young as well going into the season. So I'll take the over as well. All right. We will continue with our over-unders. We'll get into the pitching side of things in just a moment. But first a reminder, this episode of the Locktime Airs podcast is brought to you by Ethos in Game Time.

Starting point is 00:15:17 So he went seven or more ten times in 2024. And I think in 2023 he went seven or more eight times. So I put it at seven and a half starts. Basically, can Logan Gilbert get back to do him? we know he can do. The signature Colby last year he only had one, right? In 2024 he had 10 times
Starting point is 00:15:46 where he went seven or more. Yeah, yeah. Opening day was the only time that he went seven or more. Yeah. And then I think he also had like five starts in 2024 where he went six and two thirds. So essentially half of his starts,
Starting point is 00:15:59 he pitched into the seventh inning. Yeah, in 2024, he led the leg in any. I can take the under, I think it'll be better than it was last year. But I still, based on what I've seen, and again, it's the Cactus League and all that, still hasn't shown like a real propensity to get quick innings and quick outs and all that. And so, you know, he's going to strike out a lot of dudes, but he's going to throw six pitches to get that strike out. That seemed to be like the formula last year.
Starting point is 00:16:31 Is that per pitch or per out, it cost them. you know, five, six or seven pitches to kind of get that out. And 20 pitches in inning is, you know, going to eat up your day pretty fast. So I think it's under, but I don't know that it's going to be, it's not going to be one like it was last year. I feel confident about that. But I don't think he's going to get to eight, which is what you would need to take the over. So I think this is about the right number, but I would take the under just because I don't really know if Logan, we'll see maybe the cutter helps him get some, some quick round ballouts and stuff like that.
Starting point is 00:17:05 But yeah, just based on what I saw last year and based on the handful of of endings I've seen them pitch this year, it doesn't look like there's a massive difference in terms of, you know, putting guys away. But again, it's the cactus league. So who really knows? Yeah, I'm feeling like five on this one. Yeah. Before we move on to the next prop, though, should mention breaking news, kind of, from our
Starting point is 00:17:29 buddies at Mariner Mojo. Ooh. Yes, you probably want to take away those. The two most athletic guys in the Mariners content space. If you guys don't believe me, go watch their video. They are down there in spring training still, and today Bryce Miller was supposed to throw his bullpen. He threw three pitches and stopped.
Starting point is 00:17:49 So, yeah, I said he was talking to a trainer. You know, that's all I got right now. They posted a video too, but I obviously can't watch it right now. So I assume tomorrow's show we'll be talking about what to do with Bryce Miller's spot because that does not seem like good news. And I assume we'll get an update later after the show is published from Dan Wilson and whatnot. So, you know, we'll see where that is. But I would say that pretty much eliminates any possibility that Bryce is going to be opening day ready. So it might be an open spot in the rotation.
Starting point is 00:18:23 Do they just go with Cooper Criswell? Do they want to go in the free agent market and try and sign someone like Tyler Andrews? or somebody like that. We'll see. But anyways, we'll talk about that in depth tomorrow. I just wanted to mention it. So you guys know we saw it and not be like, why didn't you talk about the Bryce Miller thing? It's like, well, because it happened in the middle of this. So there you go.
Starting point is 00:18:43 Yeah. Well, that's unfortunate. Do you have any Bryce Miller prop bets? Because I'm going to take that right now. Thankfully, I did not put any Bryce Miller props on this list here. So continue with the pitching, though. Brian Woole. $199.9 and a half strikeouts.
Starting point is 00:19:00 He would have gotten to $200 had he not gotten hurt. He wound up at $198. So essentially, do you think Brian Wu is a 200 strikeout pitcher in 2020? In reality, it's due. I think Brian Wu will throw enough innings to get to his 200 strikeouts because, yes, he can absolutely be a 200 strikeout pitcher. Basically was last year. The question is, can he be healthy enough to do it?
Starting point is 00:19:23 It's kind of one of those, you know, show me you can before I buy into it type of things. and you know, Wu misses time and he wears down. And that's just kind of what we have to assume will happen. And it's not a work ethic thing. You know, it's not like he's in bad shape. Who's probably the most athletic guy in the rotation. It's just, you know, year before last, there was some arm fatigue stuff. And then this, you know, last year the peck thing happens.
Starting point is 00:19:49 So, yeah, you do have to, you know, be worry or at least wary of that to a certain degree. Yeah. So when it comes to bets that are primarily focused on the player's health, I let the players help or players' health kind of dictate where I go with this. And because Brian Woods never done it before, I think I would have to take the under on this one. But this is also like a lot of these other props, IRL, I wouldn't touch this one if I was so inclined to actually place wagers, hashtag not gambling advice, on any of these props. So I take the under. I think he'll be a very good season. I think if you told me he was making 32 starts or whatever,
Starting point is 00:20:32 I would say, yes, he'll get the, I'd hit the over on that. But I just feel like he's going to miss a month or so because it's generally what happens. And I mean, Brian Wu is not the only pitcher who, you know, goes through injury spells. So it's not a shot at him. It's just until I know that he can do it until I know that he can actually get through an entire season, I'm going to assume that he's going to miss a little bit of time. And that's going to prevent him from getting to two. strikeouts.
Starting point is 00:20:59 I'll take the over. Okay. I believe in Brian Wu, unlike you. George Kirby, three and a half percent walk rate. So he was at five and a half percent, I think, this past year, which is not typical for him. Essentially, what I'm asking here is, does George Kirby get back to being George Kirby, right? Just not walking anyone, really. How much of that is intentional, though?
Starting point is 00:21:25 It's a good point. So I'm going to take the over. I think he'll be at around four, four and a half percent. I think he'll kind of try and find a balance between not walking anybody and, you know, throwing meatballs down the middle of the plate to avoid walking people. And again, five percent is not a problem. You know, that that's not a bad walk rate or anything like that. Yeah, that was a 207 walks per nine, I think.
Starting point is 00:21:49 Yeah. Which is fantastic. Still great. Yeah. It's still near elite. It's just not quite George Kirby. But I think a little bit of it is intentional. He's trying to get more swing and miss.
Starting point is 00:21:59 He's trying to pitch outside of the zone a little more, get more whiffs outside of the zone. So I think the natural result of that will be just a few more walks. So I'll take the over, but I think it's going to be closer to 4% than 5%. Kate Anderson, half an MLB start. Well, we know he's pitching in early April. Clearly, his first start's going to be against the Yankees in that second
Starting point is 00:22:21 homestand. So, yeah, I'll take the over. over by the end of by the end of March the over will hit on this uh I think I think Chris well gets the first crack probably yeah assuming assuming that this Bryce thing is is you know what which sounds like because even if this is just like let's push it back a couple days you're just running out of time but anyways Chris Wells look good too so yeah I think you'll get the the nod here I think he'll make more than one start yeah well one start even I don't need more than one I just need one
Starting point is 00:22:54 He'll get called up sometime in the summer and he'll make a spot start or somebody who'll have to go on the IL. And so, yeah, I'll take the over. All right. And then lastly, for at least the individual player set of things, even though this is technically a four-player prop, Andreas Monios, Jose Ferrer, Gabe Spire, and Edward Bizarro, 249 and a half innings pitch.
Starting point is 00:23:17 So combine these four guys through about 280 last year. Yeah, that would be, about 62 innings apiece, 63 innings apiece. Which Munoz threw 62 and a third last year, Spire through exactly 62. Yeah, and Bizarro and
Starting point is 00:23:36 Ferreira through like 75. I think Bizarro made through 80. I assume we're talking about regular season. This is regular season. Yeah, yeah. Because if you include the postseason numbers, Bizarro through like 90. The question here really is how much
Starting point is 00:23:51 of the bulk is the rotation and then Carlos Vargas and Matt Brash is going to take off the shoulders of these other four guys. Yeah. I'm going to take the under. And I really hope I'm right about this. And I really hope it's not because somebody gets hurt. Let's be clear about that. I would love for all these guys to only have to throw 60 innings.
Starting point is 00:24:12 Let's just say for the sake of the exercise, everyone is healthy, relatively so. I feel like 60 to 65 innings is a sweet spot for any reliever. I just I don't trust Dan to not overuse guys like Vizarro, for example. So I think I'd take the over if you're eliminating injuries, but just barely. I think these guys probably average about 65 to 70 innings, and that would take you over 250. Also, you can't have a half inning, so, you know. Right, of course. It's 249.2 or 249.1.
Starting point is 00:24:52 Yeah. That one out, like this is not a good profit. that on. Like again, yeah, but like, yeah, I think if all four are healthy the entire year,
Starting point is 00:25:02 I take the over and I hope it's just barely over. But I do think the rotation will eat more innings this year. And I do think that, you know, Brass should be able to handle a little bit more of a workload. And we'll see what happens with the other spots in the bullpen. All right.

Starting point is 00:28:08 Starting with the Mariners rotation just as a whole, 415 ERA on the road. The last two years, this would essentially put them about right in the middle of the league. And they haven't been right in the middle of the league the last couple years, of course. They've been more so in the 20-ish range, 18 to 20-ish range. though. I'll take the under. Yeah, I think they make improvements on the road
Starting point is 00:28:31 just based on vibes. Sure. Yeah, it's literally like this one's just a vibes one. You know what? Cooper Chriswell is the fix for the road woes. Cooper Chriswell to me seems exactly like the type of guy who would pitch very well
Starting point is 00:28:49 at Team Mobile and then struggle on the road. So, I mean, you know, he survived in, you know, Boston. so like yeah Cooper Chriswell single-handedly gets them under 415
Starting point is 00:29:02 you're a lot of heavy lifting if he's going to do it by himself because Luis on the road yeah yeah we'll we'll see this one I don't feel great about frankly I really don't I'll go
Starting point is 00:29:16 I'll take the under just to be an optimist here but that is purely purely based off of vibes all right Mariners 90s and a half wins. So I believe the
Starting point is 00:29:27 popular prop for this on betting sites is 89 and a half. But the merits they've gotten to 90, a couple of years over the last half decade. Can they finally get to at least 91? They haven't gotten to 91 minimum since 2002.
Starting point is 00:29:43 Yet another drought. They have refused to break. They had plenty of opportunity to do it this past year. And yeah, decided to fold up shop. Manage those games like Mark DeRosa managed last night. WBC game, which A lot less on the line
Starting point is 00:29:59 Maybe stop hiring people for important jobs off TV shows. I don't know. Just a thought. Clayton Kershaw was going to pitch in that game until he realized, oh, this game matters. That's what you want from your manager. Yeah, I'll take the over. I think they get to
Starting point is 00:30:15 92, 93 wins. Again, assuming normal health, which may or may not be off to a good start. You know, you kind of assume every starter in your rotation is going to miss a little bit of time. But, you know, oblique's, you have, is it good news or bad news? No, we'll save that for tomorrow. Like, is it better that this is an oblique thing and not an elbow thing for Bryce, considering what happened last year.
Starting point is 00:30:43 But, yeah, yeah. Anyways, I'll take the over. I would say so, yes. Yeah, I'll take the over on this one. I think the American League West in general, the Astros aren't as good. Um, so the angels stink. Uh, I don't think the Rangers are as good. Astros are off to a bad start injury wise.
Starting point is 00:31:01 Haters going on the IEL to start the year and then Pena is dealing with this finger thing. Yeah. Yeah. Um, yeah, I just think it's kind of a mediocre division behind the Mariners. Not that, I don't think there's angels suck, but like everybody else I think is going to be okay. Yeah. But I don't think there's another like 86, 87 win team in this division. as things sit right now.
Starting point is 00:31:24 So I think that'll help a little bit. So I'll take the over, but I don't think they're going to push 100. But I think they're going to be, you know, 92, 93 wins. All right. Mariner's three and a half all-star selections. So they had technically five last year.
Starting point is 00:31:37 Yeah. Four initially. And then Julio bowed out and then Randy got that spot. We had this at two and a half last year. So I felt like three and a half was a good place to put it this time around. Over. Over. Okay.
Starting point is 00:31:53 You have a prediction. for for who Julio Cal Cole Young Josh Naylor Don't Alstar Andres Munoz
Starting point is 00:32:02 and Logan Gilbert seven all stars Wow now Julio Cal one of the starters
Starting point is 00:32:10 Wu or Gilbert probably Munoz I think gets you to four and then there's always a possibility Brash Nayler
Starting point is 00:32:19 could get there Randy certainly could get there so yeah I'd say four. Unfortunately, I don't think Nailer will get in unless he has just an insane year. The home runs and all that.
Starting point is 00:32:30 Petolanzos now in the AAL, obviously, he's going to get it. Even if Vladdy is disappointing, he's going to get in because he's Vladdy. So, yeah, I'm pretty low on Nailer's odds of making the All-Star team. Brennan Donovan is interesting. He made it last year for the National League. Representing like the lone representative of that team. Sure. But yeah, I mean, he's the only Cardinals?
Starting point is 00:32:55 I think so. I thought Alexer or Hellsley maybe. I don't know. Anyways, whatever. Yeah, he's kind of one of those like, I think he's similar to the Josh Nailer thing where he's just, he's not going to carry enough name recognition really. Now, you know, Cardinals fan base is pretty vocal one. So maybe they stuff the ballot box for their former player.
Starting point is 00:33:14 And he kind of gets in that way. But he's also going up against Jose Ramirez. So, I mean, already, Michael Garcia, like, yeah I don't I don't see it but maybe I think him and nailer you're kind of like yeah you know maybe maybe like Randy has a better shot of making the all-star team than those two guys even though those two guys might be better players than Randy yeah I mean you could see two starters I mean could Gilbert and woo or woo and Kirby or could two of those three guys make this yeah sure and munios I think is going to make it so I think Julio Cal and Munoz are basically locks just you know based off
Starting point is 00:33:51 their reputation and all that. Yeah. And then do they get one more after that? I think they do. Yeah. Agreed. As for who that fourth could be, I'll go woo.
Starting point is 00:34:01 It's probably going to be one of the starting pitchers. But yeah, Donovan, Randy, Nailer. Yeah. For sure. Mariners, one and a half top ten prospects traded. Under. Interesting.
Starting point is 00:34:18 One or none? One. Because they're going to trade Colt Emerson and fix everything else. I think I'd say one because, again, the top 10 right now as we sit here, it'll look different by the time the trade deadline rolls around. I'd say one because I don't think they have as much to do at the deadline. Now that could change, right?
Starting point is 00:34:42 Injuries, underperformance. But as things sit right now, what are they going to need at the deadline? Another high leverage bullpen arm. and then like, you know, maybe a utility infielder, maybe a fourth outfielder, maybe a number five starter. Those things don't cost, you know, top 100 prospects. And like seven or eight of the top 10 prospects right now for the Mariners are, you know, top 100-ish type of dude.
Starting point is 00:35:08 So I don't foresee them doing anything that's going to require multiple of those guys. But it's possible. I think one and a half is the correct number to put it at. I would say they end up trading one of the, those guys. And if I had to guess which one it would be, it'd probably be Felman. I think they really like Laz. I think they really like Arroyo. Obviously, it's not going to be any of the top three, maybe Farmel. But it feels like you're selling low on him if you were to trade him. So, yeah, I think maybe him. Maybe Felman gets traded. I don't think they're going to trade Stevenson yet. But this could
Starting point is 00:35:43 all change in July. And in July, I'm going to be, you know, pounding the table for them to trade. you know, Lazz and Arroyo to get the high leverage reliever with three years of club control. So we'll see what happens. But for now, I'll say under. I think they trade one. 0.5 brawls. It's been a couple of years. Under.
Starting point is 00:36:06 I'm taking the over this year. I think I take the over every year. I think it finally happens with the Astros. I think now that rolls have reversed with Houston and now they're the team chasing you. I think they try to punch up a little bit. All right. Well, that's going to do it for our show.
