Kopech was dealing with a divorce, more so than anxiety. He's a big wild card in my book. Madrigal has been outstanding since getting called up. Injured for a bit and not a guy with a lot of power, but his contact numbers are unreal. I imagine him being a very high OBP guy and maybe yearly 200 hit per season guy. That said, you had me watch a 2+ hour video. Fun stuff - good job!
Welp, as a White Sox fan, I can admit that this comment did not age very well :( Kopech I’ve believed in from the beginning but after this 2023 season, idk man… he shows flashes of brilliance every year but then fills the rest of the year with terrible results. And Madrigal ended up being pretty terrible overall. Who knows if he would’ve done better if he stayed on the Sox. Anyway, glad AntOrtiz’s vid still brought us both so much joy so many years apart!
@@Reavezz Very good stuff, man! Yeah, Kopech was a wild card then and he still is now. Kind of a make-or-break year for him..... or we just discover he's kind of a mediocre 4th starter type. And yeah, we'll never know what would've happened had Madrigal stayed a starter in Chicago. If nothing else, I would've wanted him there to save us from the need to constantly scramble for a new second baseman. Have a good one, and hopefully Spring Training will at least be fun to see some of the young talent, who are still a year or two away from the Bigs.
You should try a 10 year rebuild with the Blue Jays they are close to turning the corner with the young players and see if you can build yourself a dynasty with the core group of players that they have.
I was going to complain about the Tigers franchise haha but this video was amazing! Love the idea man, White Sox are in a good spot, it would be even more interesting with a team like the Orioles or Giants I think! Keep up with the good job and thanks for the time you spent doing a 2 and half hour video!
I really love your ideas of rebuilds and stuff like that but, I’m sure myself and many others would love more Tigers franchise series and more consistent videos. Anyways thanks Ant keep up the great work! 🐜 ⚾️
Nick Madrigal isn’t adjusting to the majors😂 Going into today in 53 ab he is batting .358 and is like 10 for 19 hits are with two strikes 😂 I luv u ant but come on! By the way very very great video I look forward to every upload
Turns out Ant was dead accurate. Madrigal ended up being horrible. Bro got traded to Ant’s favorite team the Cubs and even still, Ant has mentioned how bad he is.
Love this vids, also a fellow cubs fan, one thing however I wouldn’t call nick Madrigals start in the big leagues “not as smoothly as expected” he is hitting .358 (according to baseball reference) and he has been having great approaches at the plate. I am interested in the show and will continue to watch the videos but I would like to see a video where you sit down and talk about the cubs. I think it would be interesting to hear you talk about your favorite team and the ups and downs of this year.
Turns out he went to yours and Ant’s favorite team and ended up being terrible! He was terrible his final year with the Sox too but yea. Maybe Ant could tell ahead of time that Madrigal wasn’t gonna cut it 😂
hey buddy! how are you? loved the idea. I always wanted that type of rebuild video, a more longer in in terms of years in the game and content in general. i hope you keep this idea going. cheers from Brazil!
Really enjoy the vids! You should do another rebuild with the Brewers. Doesnt matter if its anything special or not. Just havent seen one other than the original
Shouldve tried to develop Dane Dunning in the pen in the bigs to try and boost that overall and potential more rather than letting him rot in Triple A.
He literally said in that video "people pronounce it this way in Cuba, people pronounce it this way in America" never once said what he prefers, you're obviously not a white sox fan, your knowledge of Madrigal proves that, our announcer Jason Benetti pronounces Rah-Burt, even made a tweet about how to pronounce it correctly because he talked to luis about it. Dont get cocky about it, you're just a guy who makes unrealistic franchise videos, I mean really, trading for Tatis?
@@robr1822 oh buddy... Never do I claim to make realistic franchise videos. My mistake of madrigal is a mistake, sorry I made 1 mistake. I guess you are perfect. I looked at baseball reference before the video and thought Madrigal was the starting 2B, but they had Mendick there so it was Mendicks stats that I saw. Also NO I am not a white sox fan, I have made it very obvious over the 3 years that I have uploaded that I am a Cubs fan. Finally, if a guy says his name is pronounced Ro-bear in his homeland, I would assume that's the correct pronunciation. He says people say it Robert in America cause that's what americans read it as. SO HE SAYS HE IS OK WITH IT. Not the correct way. It's similar to Roberto Pérez. Pronunciation is Ro-bear-toe. Not Rob-ert-toe. It's just the way Robert is pronounced. So take your shit ass attitude and calm down or you can leave.
@@TheAntOrtiz I think you're the one who needs to calm down bud, as I never typed in all caps, so obviously you're the one getting heated. But what evs bro
@@robr1822 sometimes people skip while reading, so figured I'd make somethings stick out to catch your eye. I'm fine, bud. Just kinda funny you're so upset over a pronunciation. But oh well
All Canadian rebuild challenge only Canadian players, 2 sport drafted rebuild challenge or players who have been in the league for over 10 years maybe more and have never been to a World Series.
When I was looking at baseball reference for the Sox, I thought the starting 2B spot was him. Instead it was Mendick, so it was a mistake on my end. I mixed up their stat lines
@@swisscheese6456 ya it's a carry over from 2019 so it's been about a year since I started it. I'm curious to see what happens after 1000 yrs. I've already gotten a few bugs that happen
@@ratchetandquark yea, I have noticed in mine that the indians still haven't won a world series and mike trout is still playing because i change his stats to 99 at the end of every season so he doesn't retire, he has only won 2 world series
I didn’t know this was 4 months ago, cause pitching is no longer a problem with hendricks and lynn

Yes if Kopech plays well that would really make a difference. They need starting pitching

Kurtis Dunlop I really like bo bichette as a Mets fan pretty jealous of Toronto
If he can keep vladdy and bichette he would have 2 99’s later in the rebuild
Bichette will end up higher overall rating than Vladdy, just sayin...still would like to see a long term Jays rebuild video though
TH-cam really needs to chill with these double fifteen second unskippable ads
adblock
@@alexlamon723 phone
Hahahaha nowadays we would be jumping for joy at the double 15 second’ers. It’s gotten out of control with the ads on YT now.
can’t get enough of your rebuilds. i’ve rewatched every one at least 2 times keep making these ur killin it
I would love to see you vs fuzzy in diamond dynasty

Madrigal is hitting like 380 what do you mean struggling, his batting average with 2 strikes is above 500, he a beast
He doesn’t know shit man lol
like what tim says let em sleep
Syndagard is averaging a cy young and he lets em walk
Welp, this aged very poorly 😂 guess Ant knew what he was talking about after all! Madrigal is straight doo doo

Madrigal hitting .360 this year , he ain’t struggling (regardless very much enjoy the content my guy :) 👍🏼)
Agreed!!!
He struggled in the game
@@CYROMERO2 he stated he is iffy in the MLB season.
Nicky Two Strikes haha
Half of those hits are bloopers, he wasnt awful but theres certainly room for some more hard contact
I really love your ideas of rebuilds and stuff like that but, I’m sure myself and many others would love more Tigers franchise series and more consistent videos. Anyways thanks Ant keep up the great work! 🐜 ⚾️
Nicely worded, also I agree 👍
Ya he should do it
mad respect for you the editing on this must have been insane
You should do a ten year rebuild of the Mariners since they have such a deep farm system
Love that you chose my favorite team...great video man keep up the great work!!
Nick Madrigal isn’t adjusting to the majors😂
Going into today in 53 ab he is batting .358 and is like 10 for 19 hits are with two strikes

1:58:01 "Seven tin innings"
Best rebuild on TH-cam
2 hour and 26 minutes rebuild? Fuck I’m down with that

20 Years PLEASEEE
Thanks for making my quarantine better love your content keep up the good work
everyone complaining about Madrigal like bruh this man just uploaded a 2 hour+ video show some respect lmao
It’s always bittersweet to let players walk but at least it comes after a championship.
Gotta make this a full time series
Love these rebuilds keep it up they are entertaining
Yeaaaaa 2 hour video. Ill watch this tomorrow
And the great one has returned!
Bro are you crazy the stuff you do for your fans is amazing 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I really enjoyed watching this video. Keep it up. Thank you for being entertaining.
The Sox are so close to a World Series. All they need is to keep Colome and get 2 good starters. Play Adam Engle in right field.
This is probably best video ever
Damn Ant rolling out a 2.5 hour video.
Please keep these coming
1:01:51 PLEASE DON'T REMIND ME OF THAT STUPID TRADE WE DID FOR DUMB JAMES SHIELDS :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :(
10 year rebuilds are 👍👍👍👍
Really enjoy the vids! You should do another rebuild with the Brewers. Doesnt matter if its anything special or not. Just havent seen one other than the original
Isnt Nick Madrigal batting like .360 I wouldn’t exactly call that a tough time adjusting
Wat roster are you using for this Ren
Build
Skipping a draft in vid because it would be too long yet the vid was still over 2 hours!!!!!!!! C’MON ANTORTIZ
Time to get some popcorn this is gonna be a long one
Ant the 🐐
Shouldve tried to develop Dane Dunning in the pen in the bigs to try and boost that overall and potential more rather than letting him rot in Triple A.
You should do a Bryce Harper rebuild where you rebuild the Phillies until Bryce’s contract runs out
An Orioles 10 year would be interesting
Hell yeah.
we gotta get 1k likes on this guys
Needed to let the younger triple aaa/mlb prospects develop for a year or two and fill with some placeholders
an oakland A's rebuild or a blue jays rebuild
Guess I’m here for the long haul
Please do a 20 year braves franchise rebuild
Madrigal has been excellent
He literally said his name is Luis Robert. Rob-ert. He even said it. This is not complaining, this is facts.

Madrigal is hitting .355. What exactly does he have to do to 'adjust' to the majors?
