Who can draft a Pitching Staff with the most Strikeouts? (AL Central Edition)

[@anniesymons8474]

11:08 JOEZ LITERALLY CALLED THE SKUBAL YEAR

[@aguywithcommonsense7503]

I came back here looking for a comment like this lol

[@marimbaguy715]

8:38 goddammit Jolly, if you wanted a recent Twin, 2023 Pablo Lopez was right there for 200+

[@faithlarsen1257]

He had like 50 more Ks than Sonny in 2023

[@mrgrimm]

Joez constantly reminds me that this is an entertainment sports channel.

[@Roysorb]

2012 greinke is wild, you had a whole decade to choose from

[@michaelcahill4534]

Joez was on another level for this one. "Zoe Zumaya" 😂😂😂😂😂

[@michaelcahill4534]

"Defense?!?! I need to play offense, PAP!" 🤣🤣🤣

[@greenebeane7]

Joez is a menace💀

[@Snazzeo]

The last time I was this early Gerrit Cole still had a healthy elbow

[@GunshipGang06]

Lol

[@slyde6784]

Too soon 😅😅😅😅

[@Random_Dizzy]

🤣☠️

[@TheTEN24]

Joez had such a great start. Thinking of royals starters is a tough ask

[@Apere12]

BBD might be on to something with a ERA draft where you draft a pitchers ERA from a specific year and Lowest total ERA at the end of the draft wins

[@dylandolisi374]

I think I’d enjoy it even more with them picking the highest ERA… haha

[@RilesIsTall]

As a Tigers fan, when Joez said 2011 or 2012 Zumaya I was SCREAMING

[@Karmy.]

Same

[@peterskrobola8753]

Pablo Lopez 2023 and Matt Boyd 2019 abandoned on the side of the road

[@notsauer]

As a Tigers fan, I was thinking ERA title Anibal Sanchez

[@peterskrobola8753]

@@notsauer Also had one with the Marlins back in 2011

[@NotdeKikker]

11:10 The 2024 Skubal prediction was actually insane

[@asdfaeou]

Joez with an Ozzie Albies meltdown.

[@Deeptocenter]

You guys really need a fan of an Al central team in the office

[@Karmy.]

I'd love to volunteer to be that person

[@bentaylor4705]

For a second I thought Joez was about to be a central guy until his epic collapse.

[@JayMac2284]

Tigers fan from 1995-2015... sign me up.

[@cflow2013]

Joez is on the biggest one this episode lmfao love it.

[@iamjp1]

11:11 to be fair, skubal 2024 is looking like a great pick for joez lol

[@JasonEllBowling]

6:00 Thought Joez was picking Zo. I don't know if Blitzball stats count here.

[@ryanmacdonald9456]

Jolly "copping out" for a Twin and saying 2023 Gray instead of Lopez 🤣

[@glucosaminecondroitan9135]

The Jordan Lyles and Brady Singer mentions make me think of Foolish Baseball/Bailey videos. Chad Innings and the psychedelic caught looking Brady Singer video.

[@jasonbeers3990]

2000 Bartolo Colon for Cleveland would have been a solid 212 K's

[@swaggod1]

that tarik skubal future pick aged like fine wine

[@Karmy.]

I would love to see their reaction here if someone went with 2006 Jeremy Bonderman

[@JayMac2284]

I was looking at Jeremy Bonderman's stat sheet this morning. Crazy to see this comment.

[@bigtasty8446]

I’ve been WAITING for a NL Central vid

[@eighteight4612]

Why did they stop reading off at the End who was the best options possible. They did that for the Homer draft and it was really cool.

[@Karmy.]

Especially since it only stays on screen for like 0.0002 seconds

[@michaelbis2148]

joez predicted 2024 skubal

[@cgsanchez]

Not mentioning 2023 Pablo Lopez was insane. Plus Guardians had good Bauer, Bieber, Carrasco and even Clevinger seasons..

[@thoughtfulstargazer]

Gotta love that Target Field in the background.

[@Smabe777]

2023 Pablo Lopez 230k’s?

[@zackaryhaselius2226]

I know. I was confused why no one did him.

[@justinbodenschatz3796]

These 3 are electric together 😅

[@jacklee227]

Cleveland in 2018 had 4 starters with 200+ K's and the starter that didn't get 200 (Bieber) had 259 in 2019. With how baseball is trending it's hard to see another staff with 4 guys all hitting 200 in a season in the near future.

[@WeGotIcetoo]

Best series ever

[@Grimmnation4]

My favorite Royal is a World Series Champion who led the Royals in HR in 1985, Steve Balboni.

[@jefftheworthlessnut]

It could be a fun tweak to allow a player to get drafted multiple times. Would just have to control the reactions when a year is give

[@zackcaldwell4704]

Joez lack of baseball knowledge while working for a baseball company never ceases to astound me

[@saskscott26]

Fun fact about Joel Zumaya. He was a fireballer for the Tigers that could hit 100 mph in an era where that was rarer than it is today but the fun part is he missed a playoff game or two by getting put on the IL for playing too much Guitar Hero and strained his arm.

[@spartacus778]

RIP Yordano Ventura

[@joshcreel3835]

I miss the Zole Zumaya era

[@Karmy.]

Joez fucked that up so bad lmao

[@piercegormley8644]

It’s Zoel*

[@thecardguy9178]

You guys have no idea how much I wanna compete against you guys for even one of these games

[@ishshah31]

Rockies legend Wade Davis 🙏🏻

[@Howdyfolksimoliver]

Was thinking Danny Duffy and Ian Kennedy lol

[@ApexATL]

Joez was on fire this episode.

[@dustinhealy1676]

Nobody taking Duran 2023 or 2022 for their bullpen is practically criminal, and I’m not even a Twins fan. But that man is nuts.

[@kingslayer3796]

Francisco Liriano, Jhoan Duran, David Price, Jeremy Bonderman, Greg Holland, Fausto Carmona, Esteban Loaiza, Bobby Jenks

[@denizakin5645]

11:11 2024 Tarik Skubal is a really good pick lmfao

[@MissStargazer95]

I was wondering if we were gonna get a Danny Duffy year with how many Royals were wasted here

[@JeffreyThrush]

How about Detroit Tiger Jeremy Bonderman in 2006? Bondo could throw gas. He would get himself into a bit of a jam at times during the game, but would usually escape without too much damage. The MotorCity would of had more dings and dents if it wasn’t for Bondo

[@Karmy.]

Yes!

[@Quartermainman1]

Irvin Santana was a royals pitcher. 161 strikeouts. Edison Volquez also a starter, 155 strikeouts. Danny Duffy had 188 in 2016.

[@brettostby1945]

A great twist to these videos would be if Lucas didn’t even have a computer and just memorized these stats the whole time

[@cash_us]

JOEZ REDEPTION INCOMING

[@zackaryhaselius2226]

Sorry

[@randyrios1748]

I come back to this video just for 1:48

[@peterharris6409]

You could definitely do this same format and do innings pitched.

[@adamwadley9642]

I hope we get a hits and maybe a walks draft for the hitters when this is done

[@danielbuck3082]

“Guess a year babyyy” “…WHATT?!”

[@murphythedog789]

Same game with wins and saves would be fun.

[@Meejor100]

You guys should do hits draft next

[@jasonbarba19]

Little did they know that future Skubal pick would’ve been a great pick

[@williammcnasty5854]

Let's be honest: when Jolly goes: this one is brought to you by Shady Rays (or whoever) you will hear more about them later, we all hear: you can skip them later.

[@AliceYobby]

???????????

[@viggyv9]

I think you should be allowed to take a player if he pitched in the division (i.e. Greinke) and someone picks a year said player was not in the central, provided they know which year said player was in the division.

[@dfp_01]

In terms of time since each AL Central team's last World Series win, the Royals are the most recent, then the White Sox, Twins, Tigers, and Guardians. The only other division where every team has won one is the NL East. Will the Mariners, Rays, or Brewers be the next team to send their division into that club?

[@josuesongo]

I love Joez!!

[@andylutz]

everything was going great before “the Cliff Lee incident” 🤣

[@RunnerBoy55]

Don't forget Lyles in 2023 also led the league in CG's

[@NoseyNick57]

Papa grande Jose Valverde felt like a miss here. One year he had like 50 saves for the tigers. I think it was 2012, don’t feel like checking lol

[@bigwills53]

Joez is my favorite human

[@casadycawlfield1019]

Was K-rod on the tigers?

[@shaymerten173]

Sometimes Joez sounds like master shake

[@MICHAH6]

SHADY RAYS

[@9JPDAWG]

The disrespect to Javier Vazquez’s White Sox run

[@bigmansam9968]

I THINK he was pitching relief by then but in 2005 for the White Sox El Duque had 91 Strikeouts

[@dmoneyyy1863]

Where was the Greg Holland pull?!?!

[@baileysmith4744]

everyone's favourite Royal should be WS champ Johnny Cueto (he struck out 56 batters for the Royals after being traded from the Reds)

[@shoukatsukai]

I am HURT they got the Greinke year wrong. Its my favorite Cy Young season of the 2000s. He won 16 games on a team that lost 97. Paved the way for King Felix to win Cy Young with only 13 wins the next season.

[@illusionSquared]

Joez was doing so well before his rotation fell off a... Cliff

[@dgrblue4162]

Apparently Joez is the mascot here.

[@mubs42]

If y'all wanna get real nasty, you'll do an RBI draft

[@christophertenpenny]

Greg Holland and Danny Duffy some big misses after the atrocious shields and Greinke guesses.

[@thomasholder1566]

No one thought anything about the tarik skubal future pick being one of the best picks lol

[@DSTEWGOD]

You’ve got to stop letting Joez play these games. It’s an automatic loss the second he shows up for any of these contests 😂.

[@piercegormley8644]

Picking Lee in 07 after knowing CC won that year lol

[@timothybrown5999]

Before the video started, I assumed Joez would constantly screw up. I wasn’t disappointed. It’s almost as bad as Pennick doing trivia.

[@DrewB2400]

I still thinking taking a reliever before starters is never worth it. The gap between the top relievers and the average guys is soooo much smaller.

[@RIPObamacare]

Crazy that no one named 2019 Shane Bieber

[@austinshook7289]

They should make it so if you pick a year where the player was in another division or retired or whatever they get a zero. Not fair to only get 60 ks for picking an injury year or something and just lose the player if they didnt pitch at all.

[@rorogonzo7867]

What about Y. Ventura 2015.

[@elemental2708]

2023 Lopez and Lange were right there

[@Johan_Kia]

No Cueto?

[@noahgarcia1357]

3:06

[@moiseslara9160]

dont know how many K's he had but Jeremy Guthrie came to mind for a royals pitcher

[@systemfan3]

No love for Royals legend Gil Meche! I was confident in him but would have totally messed up the year.

[@zachgreenwalt3168]

My favorite is Royal Tenenbaum

[@Chris_Simonton]

I fucking love Joez

[@williamfischer3990]

I had a random Ricky Nolasco thought for a Twins SP

[@shoukatsukai]

115 Ks best season nah

[@n00bspwn]

You should change the rules so that if somebody picks a player year that wasnt in the division, other people can still pick that player. With the current rules, people can just keep picking wrong years to purposefully take good players off the board.

[@NicolasTermini]

My favorite royals are Juan Soto and Zack Greinke

[@dylandolisi374]

Danny Duffy, Edinson Volquez, Gil Meche…

[@Sdizzle7]

Liriano?

[@zackaryhaselius2226]

If Johan isnt the First Twin drafted, we riot.

[@lebronakon2324]

Plouffe

[@brobrostock]

i think if someone guesses a year where the player wasn't in the division, then that player should still be up for grabs just not for who got it wrong

[@JETEP3]

Surprised no one said Mark Buehrle

[@shoukatsukai]

Never a strikeout guy

[@ferdinandfoch7816]

His best season in terms of Ks was only 165

[@mattgustavson2780]

03 Esteban Loaiza 207 K's. Thanks, recent Jolly Olive Video

[@Karmy.]

06 Jeremy Bonderman 202 Ks
