Aaron Judge has cut down on the strike outs considerably he is a much more complete player now then he was in 2017 and 2018 so the argument that is made for his strikeout problems shouldn’t be an argument anymore period because the last 2 years are evidence that when healthy judge is an unstoppable hitter
I agree with this 100%. Its almost a casual take at this point to just blow Judge off as a one dimensional player. Trout and Ohtani are great in their own right but I don't see either one of them putting up the same stats as judge this year. Judge also has plus defense in center and elite in right we wont even discuss that. Not too many guys who are true 5 tools and then some like the Judge.
@@matthewoneal7291 these dudes just Yankee haters , othani strikes out way way more than judge & trout is great but defensively I give judge the edge over him
1) Judge gets bad strike calls from the umps because of his height, still hits for average and walks 2) Judge plays a really good center and a gold glove right field There’s no holes in judges game. Is he better than Trout, no. Is he a 5 tool player? Yes. Can he possibly have a better season than Trout and win mvp? Definitely a chance it happens
Judge obviously leading the mvp race at this point in the season and yordan obviously is a better hitter than ohtani it’s just he doesn’t pitch or play defensive at all which makes ohtani a million times more valuable but just from a hitting standpoint he’s a better hitter
2015 Marc: I told you the Mets would win the wor…….. 2016-2022 Marc: mark my words this year the Mets will win the World Series its gonna be different this year
I think a Robot umps are good. Let the robot ump make the call but umps can review it quickly based on technology. I understand there would be a concern with games taking EVEN LONGER than they already are this year because of review times. However I feel they can make the call quickly and it would even cut down on time from players/coachs arguing with umps.
Mike Trout is the G.O.A.T ? What??? Hey I guess Ruth, Ted, Mantle, Hank, Mays, Bonds, Rose and Joe.d don’t count sheesh 🙄 I thought y’all had knowledge on baseball ⚾️.
Jazz Chisholm starts in the Allstar game and if the marlins slump, he could be on the trade deadline Another hot take: coming from a Phillies fan, Zack wheeler or Aaron Nola could win cy young and will be a big reason why the Phillies have an underrated rotation.
I’m confused on the last one dude said robo umps are a no go which means he wouldn’t want them from my understanding yet marc buys but says he wants robo umps am misinterpreting that or did yall?
Shohei strikes out a ton and doesn't walk. He's an absurd power hitter, but he's not Ted Williams. Yordan is a more complete hitter. Similar power but elite strikeout and walk rates. Shohei's obviously a better player though. I just think Yordan is a better hitter.
@@EldritchAugur shohei had better on base and slugging numbers through all of last year, than yordan has through this short stretch right now. Shohei i thought was pretty unanimously better. He had like twice as many walks as yordan last year.
Hot hot take: the Rockies aren’t stupid and understand that most Rockies fans don’t care about us being good and only go to the games to drink and watch a high scoring slug fest. Sincerely, a Rockies fan.
The judge take better have been said before last nights game man went 4 for 5 with 2 homers he is trying to prove these men wrong and fuzzy puts a lot of respect on him and judge is so good
In terms of Robo umps, my biggest issue isn’t the human element but the fact that framing will no longer be needed for a catcher. Framing is such an underrated skill that really separates MLB catchers to very good defensive MLB catchers
I have a hot take: Zac Gallen and Merril Kelly will end up being the second best pitching duo(obviously behind DeGrom and Scherzer) Hot take: Taylor Ward will end up top 5 in the MVP race
Gallen and Kelly are probably not top 5 duo. Even with both of the best duo out of commission they aren’t a top 2. If Taylor Ward can keep this up he will have the best offensive season of all time, so yeah I buy the second part.
@@jamison9986 how abt the pirates if bryan Reynolds gets hurt?? Then the reds might pull ahead also rn theyre red hot so if they keep this up theyre good to go 💨
Im selling the Trout best player all time. With players like Hank Aaron, who is among the top 50 in almost every offensive stat, I think it's hard to say trout will be the best. I like trout a lot, I say he can finish top 10 but not 1.
ACCEPT JESUS AS YOUR LORD AND SAVIOR AND REPENT JESUS LOVES YOU HE DIED FOR YOU SO YOU COULD BE FORGIVEN ASK GOD FOR FORGIVENESS AND REPENT!🙏🙏 AMEN.’!!!
Hot Take: The Braves will get 1st in the NL East this year. They will go on a hot streak in the second half of the year and beat the Mets in the last series. But eventually will lose to the Mets in the playoffs. From a Braves fan.
Braves getting hot is not a hot take lol, it's a long season so if they end up overtaking the Mets at some point, it's not that shocking. They're one of the most talented teams in the NL and are the freaking defending champs so definitely not a hot take.
@@franzreyes846 they're too talented on both ends and have good enough pitching to not be World Series contenders. I think a healthy Braves team has a better lineup than the Dodgers.

Only hole is his health, but in terms of on the field, no holes
It is happening.
Hot take: Juan Yepez has a real shot at NL ROY. Bat to ball skill is unreal for a rookie
Barry Bands shaking his head rn 2:30
Less go, let’s get some more Wander Franco hype.
Hot Take: Alek Manoah and Kevin Gausman both finish top 3 in AL Cy Young voting.
You guys should post videos like this together monthly, you have amazing videos but this is my favorite.
Hot take: Jeremy Pena will win the AL Rookie if the year. And Astros will make another WS run
It's possible but there are a lot of great teams in the AL such as the Yankees
Are u kidding me?? What an absolute fuckin BANGER!
Great meeting you at the Mets game earlier!
Judge obviously leading the mvp race at this point in the season and yordan obviously is a better hitter than ohtani it’s just he doesn’t pitch or play defensive at all which makes ohtani a million times more valuable but just from a hitting standpoint he’s a better hitter
Hot take: Logan Gilbert lowers his ERA back down to 2-2.5 and manages to sneak his way in top 3 of Cy Young voting and if not he will win it.
Hot take: Taylor Ward is legit and finishes top 5 in MVP voting
could not agree more
2015 Marc: I told you the Mets would win the wor……..
2016-2022 Marc: mark my words this year the Mets will win the World Series its gonna be different this year
Hot Take about AL Central: The Tigers will get back on track in June and finish 500. The Twins finish in first and White Sox 2nd
Cool collab! Always enjoy the buy or sell videos
Very Hot Take: Mackenzie Gore continues to dominate and finishes with a sub 3 era and wins the NL ROY
I think a Robot umps are good. Let the robot ump make the call but umps can review it quickly based on technology. I understand there would be a concern with games taking EVEN LONGER than they already are this year because of review times. However I feel they can make the call quickly and it would even cut down on time from players/coachs arguing with umps.
Hot take: the Cardinals win the NL central, arenado wins mvp. They also get 4 + gold gloves
BUYYY!!!!
Adley will come up and instantly be a top 5 catcher
Sell
you from the future?
Buy or Sell Mariners make playoffs
Wee need more of this to say the less, also gore for roty
aaron judge take was 100% accurate
BRO SAID AARON JUDGE IS NOT A COMPLETE PLAYER LMAO WTF
Hot take: This is the first year in a long time that a freeway world series is possible.
Angles vs Dodgers or Yankees vs Mets
To clarify Marc's opinion Yordan is a better power hitter than Shohei
Hot Take: Yankees/Astros in the ALCS
Mike Trout is the G.O.A.T ?
What??? Hey I guess Ruth, Ted, Mantle, Hank, Mays, Bonds, Rose and Joe.d don’t count sheesh 🙄 I thought y’all had knowledge on baseball ⚾️.
Hot take Patrick sandavol is a top10 pitcher
I wonder if this was filmed before Rodon got shelled on sunday
This is a W collab…. Good stuff man😤
Hot take: Juan Soto to the Dodgers for a package that includes Gavin Lux Andy Pages and more in return
Luis Robert is an MVP candidate this year.
I see it coming down to Suzuki & Jeremy Peña
Hot Take: Xander Bogaerts is the best shortstop in all of baseball.
Hot take: the guardians will be second place in their league by the end of the year.
2:43 Anaheim* angels don’t play in la
Not as awkward this time Marc woooo!
Buy: Mike Trout wins mvp and shohei ohtani finishes top 3 in cy young, and the angels make wild card.
Max Scherzer is out for 2 months now... Mets ain't winning a thing haha
Jazz Chisholm starts in the Allstar game and if the marlins slump, he could be on the trade deadline
Another hot take: coming from a Phillies fan, Zack wheeler or Aaron Nola could win cy young and will be a big reason why the Phillies have an underrated rotation.
No way in hell they trade Jazz, thats just dumb af
Ok Marc I would agree with a robot home plate umpire only because what if a fight breaks out
yordan is just a better hitter than shohei and i absolutely simp for shohei. yordan just never ever looks off balance up there it’s incredible
Hot take: Soto leaves in fa and goes to either the Twins or Blue Jays, leading them to the world series
Lol why are you standing mark?
Angles have a top 5 offense on the American League
there should be a new york vs LA all star game to see which is the best baseball city
I’m confused on the last one dude said robo umps are a no go which means he wouldn’t want them from my understanding yet marc buys but says he wants robo umps am misinterpreting that or did yall?
i would hard sell the trout take, he’s great don’t get me wrong, but he won’t be the greatest ever at the end of his career
Hot take: Pete Alonso will win the hitting title this year
Wonder if Marc thinks the same about the mets after scherzer going out
LFG KING OF JUCO!!!
Thanks for having me on I had a lot of fun. I still think you’re smoking some shit if you think Yordan Alvarez is better hitter than Shohei!
eric!!!
Shohei strikes out a ton and doesn't walk. He's an absurd power hitter, but he's not Ted Williams. Yordan is a more complete hitter. Similar power but elite strikeout and walk rates.

@@PoopScoopCoop you are bringing up Shohei's MVP season lol. Now bring up numbers from any other of Shohei's season. It's not that elite
Let’s see if Marc learned how to not be awkward when they are talking
Looks like he did do way better this time
😂
I think I helped him there by being the most awkward person on earth
@@FivePointsVids felt
@@FivePointsVids took one for the team
Marc posted more in the lockout than this season
And your point being?
His team is fucking crushing he’s probably too busy enjoying the season to make vids
The mets take was dead accurate
The one about judge aged well 😂
Hot Take: Juan Yepez wins NL Rookie of the Year
W take by a W youtuber

Hot Take: The Cardinals will win the NL central and Arenado will win NL MVP
Cardinals winning? Yes. Arenado MVP? Hell nah
Hot hot take: the Rockies aren’t stupid and understand that most Rockies fans don’t care about us being good and only go to the games to drink and watch a high scoring slug fest. Sincerely, a Rockies fan.
Hot take: Jeremy Peña is a top 7 shortstop in all of baseball, And he will win AL ROY.
Statistically he’s the best in the league rn
I think he’ll definitely with rookie of the year, but top 7 SS is a bit of a stretch
Hot take: YANKEES (let’s go) will play the Mets In the World Series as a subway series.
If that happens make it more interesting then last time
I would love that so much, but I doubt the Mets will keep it up

Facts
Hot take: by the end of the season Marcus semien will no longer be a top 50 player. Btw you ranked him at 16
One season doesn't define a players worth. Nonetheless one quarter of a season.
The judge take better have been said before last nights game man went 4 for 5 with 2 homers he is trying to prove these men wrong and fuzzy puts a lot of respect on him and judge is so good
Even during this ridiculous hot stretch from Aaron Judge, Mike Trout's numbers are still better lol
I had this take and submitted this take about a week or two ago Judge is just insane this year
@@Shyny_Yordy not really trout only has judge beat in 2 categories
Hot Take: Devers finishes top 3 in MVP voting
It would be quite impressive if the Yankees ran away with “the NL East”
In terms of Robo umps, my biggest issue isn’t the human element but the fact that framing will no longer be needed for a catcher. Framing is such an underrated skill that really separates MLB catchers to very good defensive MLB catchers
Just re-watched this video 7 months after its approximate release date and Quinn Jackus is the most accurate on this list. Bravo!
Hot take: Mike Trout is a right handed Ken Griffey Jr.
Yankees will win the World Series and six games and they will bring 100+ wins
Bartolo Colon will be a Hall of Famer (hot take)
“Yankees are going to run away with the NL east”
Hot Take: Rafael Devers is a major threat to win AL MVP if he can continue to hit at the level he is
Hot take Joe Ryan will win Al Cy young
I have a hot take: Zac Gallen and Merril Kelly will end up being the second best pitching duo(obviously behind DeGrom and Scherzer)
Hot take: Taylor Ward will end up top 5 in the MVP race
Lopez alcantara better
Gallen and Kelly are probably not top 5 duo. Even with both of the best duo out of commission they aren’t a top 2. If Taylor Ward can keep this up he will have the best offensive season of all time, so yeah I buy the second part.
@@snipergangdrob5940 But the chances of him keeping up his pace is next to none..
@@willyb9572 I said that a month ago and it's almost June and he's getting better. You never know with baseball that's why we play the games.
Hot take: the reds wont lose the NL central
Hell no
@@jamison9986 how abt the pirates if bryan Reynolds gets hurt?? Then the reds might pull ahead also rn theyre red hot so if they keep this up theyre good to go 💨

Thats an easy sell since Oakland isn't in the AL East

The Tatis one is horrible. He is horrendously bad at defense it's not even funny. He also gets injured too much.
The St. Louis cardinals are so good I see them making them to the playoffs
Hot take: The Astros make their 6th straight ALCS and Jeremy Peña wins AL ROTY alongside a top 20 finish in MVP voting
Hot Take: Mookie Betts has a comeback, bats .320, 30 HR, and 130 RBI through the end of the season. (WS MVP)
Judge has a lower k rate higher average higher fwar more home runs rbis and ops he’s simply better than trout rn and they’re talking out of their ass
