00:03 But if we are taking a look at the AL Cy Young award winning market here at
00:06 the Fandle Sportsbook, Scuball is the privilege of favorite here, Craig,
00:10 plus 185, followed by Corbin Burns, who's been very good in Baltimore.
00:13 Then you see that sort of shelf between Luis Castillo, Cole Reagans, and
00:16 Pablo Lopez, 14 to 1, 18 to 1, and 25 to 1.
00:20 Are there anybody outside of Scuball and Burns,
00:22 could you see one of those guys picking up?
00:23 Cuz I know Tanner Hauk's having a very good year here for the Boston Red Sox.
00:26 He's listed at 30 to 1 right now.
00:29 >> Yeah, this is a market that I think is sort of open and shut, Donny.
00:33 I just don't see a lot of opportunity for other pitchers.
00:36 And then the other thing that factored in for Scuball with me,
00:38 as far as a handicap at the beginning of the season,
00:41 is you never know when pitchers have a major injury, how they're going to respond.
00:46 But this guy missed a decent amount of time with an injury that usually portends
00:51 to a very solid recovery, which is what Scuball had.
00:54 He missed almost an entire year plus,
00:56 came back through his whatever it was last year, 80, 90 innings, whatever it was.
01:00 And now he has the full workload.
01:02 Those are the kind of players to bet on after a Tommy John surgery,
01:06 not the year after, but two years after that.
01:08 It's almost like that player in the NFL that has the ACL surgery.
01:11 You don't bet on that guy the first year, but the second year he's fully healthy.
01:14 It definitely appears to be going that way for Scuball.
01:17 And the other thing too is that if he's within that Cy Young Award range, guys,
01:21 at the end of the season, and Detroit is sort of out of it,
01:25 you gotta wonder if Detroit's just kind of like, let's just give this guy the Cy Young.
01:28 Let's make sure he gets it, limit his innings at the end of the season,
01:31 and make sure he's fully healthy for the next year.
01:33 Scuball will have to win the Cy Young without any run support.
01:36 The Tigers are just not a good offensive team.
