00:03 - You and I were talking about how Dylan Cease now
00:05 pitching for the Padres can actually pitch differently.
00:07 He can actually pitch to contact now,
00:09 but even though the 25 to five strikeout to walk ratio
00:12 would indicate it, he can pitch differently now.
00:14 And it probably makes a guy like Dylan Cease
00:16 even more dangerous in addition to the K props.
00:19 Joe?
00:20 - I wish I had more shares of Dylan Cease.
00:22 I like Dylan Cease, but he was a white sock.
00:24 The minute he got traded to San Diego,
00:25 unfortunately the drafts where I had a shot at him,
00:28 I did not get him.
00:29 But I think you make a great point there,
00:31 which is you can pitch with a lot more confidence
00:34 with a team that's gonna score runs
00:36 and actually catch the baseball.
00:37 And that's two things right now.
00:38 (laughs)
00:39 It's a night and day.
00:41 Look at the last few weeks for Dylan Cease.
00:42 19 innings over his last three games.
00:44 He's two and one over that span.
00:45 25 to five strikeout to walk ratio, five to one.
00:48 I mean, it doesn't get much better than that.
00:50 A two seven ERA, a whip under one.
00:53 Dylan Cease has been absolutely fantastic.
00:56 And it's why I always said that, you know,
00:58 if this pitching can just get right,
01:00 you know, Musgrove went on the IL,
01:02 Hugh Darvish just came off the IL.
01:04 If the pitching can just be more consistent,
01:06 including Michael King,
01:07 there's a script you can write where the Padres
01:09 are a real pain in the rear end
01:11 for the rest of the National League
01:12 down the stretch of the season.
01:14 'Cause that pitching is really good.
01:15 It's not quite as good as say the Seattle Mariners
01:18 who are getting Bryce Miller, just got Brian Wu back.
01:21 - Had Brian Wu and then lost him, yeah.
01:23 - Well, yeah, I mean, yeah, it's kind of,
01:25 it's like the back and forth of the situation.
01:27 You know, like if you could just, you know,
01:29 Logan Gilbert had been brilliant.
01:30 He had that one hiccup start, but still he's been so good.
01:33 The Padres pitching is really good.
01:35 It makes you wonder again,
01:37 if they can get the right offense,
01:38 if they can get hot at the right time
01:40 and healthy at the right time, what they could be.
