00:03 But if I'm looking at the top four teams in Major League Baseball and
00:05 splitting them up, Kevin, two and two, two National League teams,
00:08 two American League teams.
00:09 To me, it really is the Dodgers and the Phillies, the Yankees and
00:13 also the Orioles, and I don't see much pushback from anybody behind them.
00:16 The Braves would have been there, but you can't lose a Cy Young pitcher and
00:19 an MVP and expect still to be yourself.
00:22 And also, the Philadelphia Phillies with a five or six game lead now this early,
00:25 typically you're down five or six games this early to the Braves to try to chase
00:29 them down outside of those top four teams.
00:32 Do you see any other teams that can sort of creep into that equation?
00:34 Cuz for me, it looks like the top four and everybody else.
00:37 >> I think the difficult thing is, so far,
00:42 history would suggest that the buy is not helpful, right?
00:47 Let's forget the idea that the buy is harmful, which is absolutely on the board.
00:52 It suggests it is not a beneficial,
00:55 something that is beneficial to these teams at the top.
00:58 So I think you're right, Donnie, those are the four best clubs.
01:03 Cuz again, the Atlanta stuff, sometimes there's injuries,
01:06 there's overreactions in value.
01:07 I hate every Atlanta number.
01:09 If you made me bet a Brave number, it would be to miss the playoffs.
01:13 I just don't think you're getting enough at that 14 to 1 marker.
01:16 But I think based on what we've seen from Major League Baseball,
01:21 even if you're right, Donnie, those teams at the top are the best in the bunch.
01:25 And I bet Baltimore before the year to win a World Series,
01:28 if I were to bet another team, I'd want a big ticket.
01:32 I expect this team to be in the mix type of team,
01:36 a San Diego Padres, a Milwaukee Brewers, for example.
