00:00Talked about the Oakland Athletics slash Sacramento Athletics soon to be the Las Vegas Athletics
00:05here which I'm taking a look here at my team totals and saying to myself you know what I
00:09think this team might be able to lose 90 games and still cash a ticket to their over which is
00:13pretty incredible Major League Baseball but Tom I know you're looking at bombs for the Athletics
00:18who are we including there who's gonna be here let's go to Lawrence Lawrence Butler one of their
00:23young prospects last year he had 22 home runs in 125 games he had a 228 iso last season which is
00:29absolutely fantastic we have to remember last year they played in Oakland a completely different
00:33ball to where they're playing this season so a full season this year you know the iso may regress
00:39a little bit but we have a much better ballpark so I said this to Donnie on on pro baseball
00:44today you know when we're talking about seasonal and stuff I believe in Butler as a prospect
00:48and I if I believe he's going to go over this number 23 and a half home runs I don't think
00:51we're going to be like sweating this out for the last week of the season like I think he will be
00:55there in September and by next year this number is going to be up at 28 or 29 and a half home run
01:01so if I believe him as a prospect I believe in his underlying metrics I believe in all these things
01:04plus the improvement of ballpark factor I want to essentially be a year early ahead of the curve
01:08because if this number is gonna be 28 and a half next year he may not hit 28 and a half next year
01:12he just may be that 25 to 30 type home run type guy but we get the number 23 and a half right now
01:17and that's where I want to jump
