- 1:12Speaker 4: a bunch of good hitting spots. So more the same
- 1:15Speaker 4: with me, you know, same stuff, a different day if
- 1:18Speaker 4: you will, just excited to break the slate down with you,
- 1:21Speaker 4: get a little break, get a little bit of a
- 1:23Speaker 4: break from the madness that is living with all girls
- 1:26Speaker 4: when we talk some baseball. So let's do this, bro.
- 1:30Speaker 2: Yeah yeah.
- 1:31Speaker 3: Rest in peace to our guy Bellman over there with
- 1:33Speaker 3: the households full of uh right yeah. Usually usually the
- 1:37Speaker 3: women lead the lead the house in general, let alone
- 1:41Speaker 3: not having another single uh single son or male in
- 1:44Speaker 3: the in the household there.
- 1:46Speaker 2: So hey, girl, dog too.
- 1:48Speaker 3: Oh wow, yeah, yeah, you got you got everything rolling
- 1:51Speaker 3: down down the hill here, but hopefully, uh hope you're
- 1:54Speaker 3: going up the hill or up the leaderboards here tonight
- 1:57Speaker 3: with some extra money in your pocket.
- 1:58Speaker 2: Massive contest Aro on DraftKings and Fando.
- 2:02Speaker 3: I know we got game three here tonight, I believe
- 2:04Speaker 3: right in the NBA Finals Nicks out to two oh lead,
- 2:07Speaker 3: their Spurs kind of pissed down their leg twice and
- 2:10Speaker 3: in both of those games, but next obviously.
- 2:14Speaker 2: Got the job done there.
- 2:15Speaker 3: I don't dabble too much in the NBA streets, but
- 2:19Speaker 3: I know you and Rio have content up and our
- 2:22Speaker 3: guy little neck in the discord for the finals and
- 2:25Speaker 3: Game two was.
- 2:26Speaker 2: Very profitable for the nation for sure.
- 2:28Speaker 3: So looking to keep that rolling alongside the eight game
- 2:32Speaker 3: MLB slate here tonight, locking at six thirty five Eastern times,
- 2:36Speaker 3: so it does lock about forty minutes earlier than usual
- 2:40Speaker 3: with three really important games off the start, so make
- 2:43Speaker 3: sure you are around with that Baltimore, Cleveland and Tampa
- 2:48Speaker 3: game all locking in that kind of six forty Eastern
- 2:53Speaker 3: time window there, so make sure you're around. Set your
- 2:55Speaker 3: lineups there. We got flip flopping in here my lane
- 2:58Speaker 3: mister r K nine, Michael W. Marquee Sports, Sean Sally
- 3:03Speaker 3: Post owner, appreciate everyone tuning in. Hit that like button,
- 3:06Speaker 3: hit that subscribe button. We're gonna go ahead and pull
- 3:09Speaker 3: our partner sabersim up here. I did go ahead and
- 3:12Speaker 3: do a dry run. Have it sort of by projected
- 3:16Speaker 3: score here and pitching overview. Looks like Gavin Williams, Logan Web,
- 3:22Speaker 3: Christopher Sanchez, Walker Beeler are kind of the four guys
- 3:26Speaker 3: hitting projections in terms of projected ownership and one hundred
- 3:30Speaker 3: and fifty lineups Waukee, Seattle, Houston as offenses. So that's
- 3:36Speaker 3: kind of the four the four pitchers and the three
- 3:39Speaker 3: offenses that are headlining today slate.
- 3:41Speaker 2: Obviously, we'll do our best to break it all down there.
- 3:44Speaker 3: But when we jump over and take a look at
- 3:46Speaker 3: pitching here, Matt, we got Logan Web down at eight K.
- 3:49Speaker 3: Pitching out in the Bay Area, NAT's been best team
- 3:53Speaker 3: in baseball in terms of run scored, especially against right
- 3:55Speaker 3: handed pitching. Much different match up here for the Nats though,
- 3:59Speaker 3: going out west to that ballpark there. So at eight K,
- 4:03Speaker 3: he's probably gonna be the second highest stone pitcher. You're
- 4:06Speaker 3: you're probably looking at cash game pairing here of Logan
- 4:10Speaker 3: Web with one of either Gavin Williams or Christopher Santez
- 4:13Speaker 3: all the way up top. Depending on what your roster
- 4:16Speaker 3: looks like in terms of salary, I'm assuming it's probably
- 4:19Speaker 3: we're probably gonna see more Gavin Williams and Logan Web
- 4:22Speaker 3: type teams with the salaries the Brewers and the A's
- 4:24Speaker 3: do in that game. It is kind of your cash
- 4:26Speaker 3: game roster construction, if you will, think he's still solid
- 4:30Speaker 3: play even at ownership down there at ak Flat, Emerson
- 4:33Speaker 3: Hancock kind of falling back off, regressed a little bit.
- 4:35Speaker 2: Nobody's gonna play him, but he's an option there in Baltimore.
- 4:39Speaker 3: Pitching up in Camden Connelly early, I think is really
- 4:42Speaker 3: really interesting on this slate sandwich between Webb and Gavin Williams.
- 4:45Speaker 3: He's one of my favorite pitchers on the slate. Will Warren,
- 4:49Speaker 3: He's been great, doesn't doesn't have the same strikeout stuff
- 4:55Speaker 3: that he typically does from the left side than he
- 4:58Speaker 3: does the right side. Cleveland, we know, is obviously litter
- 5:00Speaker 3: with left handed bats, probably seven or eight lefties in
- 5:03Speaker 3: that lineup, depending on the switch hitters and things like that.
- 5:06Speaker 3: So eighty nine hundred. He probably misses my cut there.
- 5:10Speaker 3: And then you got the three guys up at the top, Sanchez, Harrison, Arraghetty.
- 5:13Speaker 3: Harrison and Sanchez been two of the best pitchers in
- 5:15Speaker 3: the league. Obviously, Sanchez just won the kind of nl
- 5:20Speaker 3: Cy Young if you will, for the month of May.
- 5:23Speaker 3: He's eleven to five, pretty expensive, not the best strikeout
- 5:26Speaker 3: matchup against Toronto pitching out there, but he's been obviously
- 5:29Speaker 3: really good. And then Kyle Harrison's been absolutely elite. Both
- 5:32Speaker 3: of those pitchers, their underlying metrics have been really good
- 5:35Speaker 3: to back up their success.
- 5:37Speaker 2: However, he's ten to five.
- 5:38Speaker 3: Pitching out in Sacramento with like ninety degrees and almost
- 5:42Speaker 3: twenty mine hour wins, blown out in the second highest
- 5:46Speaker 3: elevation stadium in all of baseball behind cors Field, So
- 5:50Speaker 3: there's definitely downside there. Arraghetty is kind of the guys,
- 5:54Speaker 3: if you will, the pivot off of Gavin and the
- 5:58Speaker 3: guy that really nobody's clicked when normally people want to
- 6:02Speaker 3: streamline pictures.
- 6:03Speaker 2: Against the Angels right for the strikeouts.
- 6:06Speaker 3: We know that it's obviously a great place to hit
- 6:10Speaker 3: here tonight, it's fairly decent in Anaheim, in terms of
- 6:13Speaker 3: the temperatures, there's some wind blown out there.
- 6:14Speaker 2: We know it's above average stadium for hitting.
- 6:17Speaker 3: He's the guy though, that I think is pretty interesting
- 6:19Speaker 3: in tournaments that nobody's gonna click, especially as a pivot
- 6:21Speaker 3: off the top two, but more so a little bit
- 6:24Speaker 3: more expensive than Gavin Williams, who's going to be played,
- 6:26Speaker 3: probably is the highest on pitcher completely on the slate.
- 6:29Speaker 2: Same thing with Logan Web and then.
- 6:31Speaker 3: If people are spinning up, they're going all the way
- 6:32Speaker 3: up to Christopher Sanchez. So I think there's a lot
- 6:35Speaker 3: to talk about up in the top tier range. Here,
- 6:38Speaker 3: go ahead and break it down here, Matt, what do
- 6:40Speaker 3: you see?
- 6:41Speaker 4: Yeah, so I agree with most of everything you said.
- 6:45Speaker 4: Sanchez is obviously the best picture on the slate, but
- 6:48Speaker 4: it's not a good matchup and he's uber uber pricey,
- 6:51Speaker 4: so he's obviously in play. He projects the best. If
- 6:56Speaker 4: you like cheap stacks, et cetera, play Sanchez, but he
- 7:00Speaker 4: doesn't project for enough better for me to want to
- 7:02Speaker 4: prioritize him at eleven to five in this matchup, so
- 7:05Speaker 4: he's just in play for me. Kind of the same
- 7:08Speaker 4: with Harrison. I trust Sanchiz more Harrison's been really good.
- 7:15Speaker 4: He's also really expensive in an even worse spot. So
- 7:18Speaker 4: I got no problems playing Harrison, but hard for me
- 7:20Speaker 4: to prioritize him here. My two favorites are Webb and Williams.
- 7:25Speaker 4: I expect them to get owned, but understandably so. Web
- 7:28Speaker 4: is tough for me because Washington has been so good
- 7:31Speaker 4: against right handed pitching. However, most of the right is
- 7:34Speaker 4: that they faced Art as good as Web, and this
- 7:37Speaker 4: is their first time playing in this ballpark, so that
- 7:40Speaker 4: matters a lot. I think it mutes their offense enough
- 7:44Speaker 4: where eight K logan Web just looks good here. Gavin
- 7:49Speaker 4: Williams also too cheap. You take judge out of this lineup.
- 7:52Speaker 4: I mean, it's not an awful lineup, but it's certainly
- 7:55Speaker 4: not the same lineup, and it's pretty just mid. Gavin
- 7:58Speaker 4: Williams is really good, we know he has upside. He's
- 8:01Speaker 4: too cheap all things considered. So those are my two
- 8:04Speaker 4: favorite guys. You did mention two tournament plays. I also
- 8:08Speaker 4: like kind of the Early. You know, the Rays are
- 8:12Speaker 4: another team. They've been amazing against right handed pitching. They're
- 8:16Speaker 4: good against everyone, but I think Early is talented enough
- 8:18Speaker 4: and low enough owned where he's in play, and then
- 8:21Speaker 4: rag Getty like, I get it just because of the matchup.
- 8:24Speaker 4: I mean, it's tough to swallow that ninety five hundred
- 8:27Speaker 4: dollars price tag on a guy that I'm really not buying.
- 8:30Speaker 4: But it's the simple it's just simply insert pitcher against
- 8:35Speaker 4: the Angels. Here. They strike out more than anyone we've
- 8:39Speaker 4: seen much worse pitchers have monster games against the Angels.
- 8:42Speaker 4: So I'm not sure I'm gonna play him, but I
- 8:44Speaker 4: get it for sure. After that, I don't see much.
- 8:49Speaker 4: I do think it's the four guys, you know, if
- 8:51Speaker 4: you want to say Hancock, you know Buehler, Like the
- 8:54Speaker 4: Reds aren't particularly good without Elie de la Cruz, but
- 8:58Speaker 4: Bueller's not he really good either, so I think that
- 9:02Speaker 4: kind of washes each other out. Grayson Rodriguez was monstrous
- 9:07Speaker 4: chalk last time out. I played him against the Rockies,
- 9:11Speaker 4: you know, especially if Houston's gonna get a lot of ownership,
- 9:13Speaker 4: I don't hate that. Playing tournaments, he's inconsistent, but we
- 9:17Speaker 4: know he's talented, Like he's way more talented than a
- 9:19Speaker 4: seven K pitcher in my mind, So maybe he's the
- 9:23Speaker 4: one just talking this out if I were to get
- 9:25Speaker 4: weird in tournaments and play a bunch of lineups, I'd
- 9:27Speaker 4: certainly have him in my pool. You know, tournaments are
- 9:31Speaker 4: a little bit different. On DK tonight, you got like
- 9:33Speaker 4: the one to eleven with four thousand people. So I
- 9:36Speaker 4: don't hate plays like that on this slate. But really
- 9:39Speaker 4: for me, it's Williams and Webb and then Sanchez, Harrison
- 9:43Speaker 4: and then Big Drop.
- 9:45Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 9:45Speaker 3: I agree with a lot of what you said. I
- 9:47Speaker 3: ranked the top tier just a little bit different. I
- 9:49Speaker 3: do have Harrison slightly ahead of Sanchez just because I
- 9:52Speaker 3: know the weather and this and that. But I mean, Harrison,
- 9:56Speaker 3: you still got to hit him, man. I mean, this
- 9:58Speaker 3: dude is look damn near on hitable in his starts
- 10:01Speaker 3: this year.
- 10:01Speaker 2: I know it's a it's the ballpark. I know.
- 10:04Speaker 3: I'm not just saying that either because I'm a Brewers guy.
- 10:07Speaker 3: I'm just looking at the ownership discount, the salary discount,
- 10:11Speaker 3: the props align it. I mean, he's got the best
- 10:13Speaker 3: k PROP on the slate, even ahead of Sanchez six
- 10:15Speaker 3: and a half minus one fifty four on the over.
- 10:18Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, does he He's.
- 10:20Speaker 3: Probably not gonna have a clean outing, right, He probably
- 10:22Speaker 3: is gonna get give up some runs. Unluck he has
- 10:24Speaker 3: been right he obviously I forget whatever the streak is
- 10:28Speaker 3: in terms of scoreless sittings and that, but I mean
- 10:31Speaker 3: six and a half k prop heavy juice to the
- 10:33Speaker 3: over his outs prop sitting at sixteen and a half,
- 10:37Speaker 3: which is okay, not bad. So for me, yeah, it's
- 10:42Speaker 3: it's those four guys I have. I have the top
- 10:45Speaker 3: tier kind of ranked. Harrison is my favorite, between him
- 10:50Speaker 3: and Sanchez. Irraghetti I like more than probably even Sanchez
- 10:55Speaker 3: a little bit, just because I think the strikeout matchup
- 10:58Speaker 3: is real. Obviously, we know that Angels second best strike
- 11:01Speaker 3: up matchup in the league against right handed pitching. Over
- 11:02Speaker 3: the last month, arrag Getty has shown a ceiling. He's
- 11:06Speaker 3: two thousand dollars cheaper than Sanchez. He's gonna be sub
- 11:09Speaker 3: ten percent owned on a shorter slate when everything's gonna
- 11:12Speaker 3: be condensed around that West Sacramento game in terms of offense.
- 11:15Speaker 3: And if they're not going there, they're going to Seattle.
- 11:17Speaker 3: So I think playing Arraghetty in tournaments is really interesting. No,
- 11:22Speaker 3: Will Warren for me, I'm not messing with that. Early
- 11:24Speaker 3: is probably my next guy that I look at Gavin
- 11:27Speaker 3: Williams is right.
- 11:28Speaker 2: There as well, and then Web.
- 11:30Speaker 3: Those are kind of the main that's kind of my
- 11:32Speaker 3: main pitching pool that I'm looking at is Web, Early Williams, Arraghetty, Harrison,
- 11:37Speaker 3: and then Sanchez.
- 11:39Speaker 2: I don't know how much chances I'm gonna get.
- 11:40Speaker 3: I'd rather just take a shot, to be honest, on
- 11:43Speaker 3: Harrison or Arraghetty with the ownership discount and the salary savings,
- 11:47Speaker 3: because I do want to play that game. I do
- 11:49Speaker 3: want to spend up for some of these offenses that
- 11:51Speaker 3: we're going to talk about here. So that's kind of
- 11:52Speaker 3: how I see the top tier. Again, the quote unquote
- 11:57Speaker 3: best plays on paper are Logan Web and Gavin Williams.
- 11:59Speaker 3: Just know, when you are playing those two guys, I
- 12:02Speaker 3: probably wouldn't five stack the Brewers just because you're gonna
- 12:05Speaker 3: be playing the same team as everybody else there. So
- 12:08Speaker 3: if you are going and eating that chalk at pitching,
- 12:11Speaker 3: which you certainly can, be cognizant of what you're doing
- 12:15Speaker 3: with the bats, because again, right look at that eighty percent,
- 12:19Speaker 3: I don't think.
- 12:19Speaker 4: We see crazy chalk. I'm pitching Tonty honestly, because I
- 12:22Speaker 4: think Sanchez and Harrison get like, I don't think any
- 12:24Speaker 4: of these guys are fifty plus percent owned to you.
- 12:28Speaker 3: So I mean, I think Gavin Williams in single entry
- 12:30Speaker 3: stuff comes over fifty percent, and I think Logan Web
- 12:33Speaker 3: is probably in that forty percent range. That's just what
- 12:36Speaker 3: I'm seeing. That's what projections are saying right now. I
- 12:39Speaker 3: have it sorted as an average of ownership, and we're
- 12:42Speaker 3: seeing Gavin Williams at forty percent, Logan Webb at at
- 12:45Speaker 3: thirty two percent. If I switched this to high stakes here, Matt,
- 12:48Speaker 3: I mean that's where I'm seeing, Yeah, Gavin fifty percent,
- 12:50Speaker 3: Logan Webb at forty three, which is kind of what
- 12:52Speaker 3: I thought. So I see Logan Web and Gavin is
- 12:54Speaker 3: kind of definitely the chalk pairing the in the smarer
- 12:57Speaker 3: your field gos cash game single entry stuff, just because
- 13:01Speaker 3: eight K eighty seven hundred the props the line at
- 13:04Speaker 3: their projections off the chart, and then it gives you
- 13:06Speaker 3: that extra three thousand dollars will spend up at BATS
- 13:09Speaker 3: when we have an eleven total out in West Sacramento.
- 13:12Speaker 2: So that's kind of what I.
- 13:13Speaker 3: See, and I do expect the smaller of the field,
- 13:15Speaker 3: the higher the stakes Kevin Williams and Logan webs ownership
- 13:18Speaker 3: is going to kind of steam anyone else and everybody
- 13:21Speaker 3: else's ownership is kind of going to moon walk back
- 13:23Speaker 3: from what you see there, it is kind of how
- 13:25Speaker 3: I how I see Yeah, the breakdown.
- 13:28Speaker 4: In that case, I think everything he said is right
- 13:31Speaker 4: on point. I mean, I think pivoting off those guys,
- 13:34Speaker 4: I don't think you have to, but I think if
- 13:36Speaker 4: you're playing then you got to be cognizant about who
- 13:38Speaker 4: you're playing with them. And at first, when you said
- 13:42Speaker 4: you liked Arragetty over Sanchez, I was ready to fight
- 13:46Speaker 4: you on it. But thinking about it more like just
- 13:49Speaker 4: because of the matchup, I think there are enough times
- 13:52Speaker 4: that Arragaetty outscore Sanchez considering the spots that they're in,
- 13:56Speaker 4: that it makes him worthwhile in tournaments, even though I
- 13:59Speaker 4: think the already of the times Sanchez is a much
- 14:02Speaker 4: better play you're looking for outliers. He's two K cheaper
- 14:06Speaker 4: half of the ownership, and there are times where he's
- 14:10Speaker 4: just straight up outscore Sanchez here. So I don't know
- 14:13Speaker 4: if I'm gonna play it, but I dig it. And yeah,
- 14:15Speaker 4: the ownership on webbin Williams. Man, it does get me
- 14:19Speaker 4: a little bit cautious, not gonna lie that they're gonna
- 14:23Speaker 4: be that highly owned, just because I like Williams a lot.
- 14:26Speaker 4: He's really good, obviously, I watch him all the time.
- 14:30Speaker 4: And the Yankees aren't as good without Judge, but it's
- 14:32Speaker 4: not like they're a trash lineup or anything. They still
- 14:34Speaker 4: got guys that can make him pay. And we know
- 14:36Speaker 4: that he's still not as consistent as some other aces
- 14:40Speaker 4: are because he puts guys on base. And then Logan
- 14:43Speaker 4: Webb prior to last start, I mean, he had troubles
- 14:47Speaker 4: all year and he's going against I mean, you said
- 14:51Speaker 4: it if the Nats have scored the most runs against
- 14:53Speaker 4: right handers of any team all year. So the ownership
- 14:57Speaker 4: does get me a little bit like, I don't even
- 15:00Speaker 4: know what the word for it is, but considering wanting
- 15:04Speaker 4: to get off of them, I guess is the best
- 15:05Speaker 4: way to put it.
- 15:06Speaker 3: Yeah, if I had to pick one of those two
- 15:09Speaker 3: between Web and Gavin Williams, I'm definitely picking Gavin Williams, and.
- 15:13Speaker 2: Props agree with that too.
- 15:14Speaker 3: But I look at the Nationals on the year against
- 15:16Speaker 3: right hand and pitching, they have a nineteen percent k
- 15:18Speaker 3: rate with power and speed.
- 15:20Speaker 2: I know it's the Bay Area. I know that, but
- 15:24Speaker 2: like Logan Webb.
- 15:26Speaker 3: I mean you look at the numbers, he's like a
- 15:28Speaker 3: twenty five percent k rate. Arm between this year and
- 15:30Speaker 3: last year. Has a below average strikeout rate or below
- 15:33Speaker 3: average strikeout matchup here against the Nats, who I get
- 15:36Speaker 3: it right, It doesn't matter the ballpark. Yeah, they don't
- 15:40Speaker 3: walu with home runs either. I mean, they're just They're
- 15:43Speaker 3: just a good baseball team against righties.
- 15:44Speaker 2: Right.
- 15:45Speaker 3: So that's where if if I had to pick one,
- 15:48Speaker 3: like I said, to be worried about, it would be
- 15:51Speaker 3: definitely for me.
- 15:52Speaker 2: Logan web Over, Gavin Williams.
- 15:54Speaker 3: Gavin Williams, I think is it's just hard to it's
- 15:57Speaker 3: hard to ignore the spot. But there's definitely downside. It's
- 16:00Speaker 3: not the best hitting environment here tonight in Cleveland. If
- 16:04Speaker 3: this game was in Yankee Stadium, I'd be a little
- 16:07Speaker 3: bit more worried. It is going to be in the eighties.
- 16:10Speaker 3: But there is some slight wind blown in. I just
- 16:13Speaker 3: the Yankees are so much better in my opinion, at
- 16:15Speaker 3: home than they are on the road most of the time.
- 16:17Speaker 3: But I think this lineup obviously took a big hit right,
- 16:21Speaker 3: not having Judge in there, they still have lefties to.
- 16:24Speaker 2: Get to them.
- 16:24Speaker 3: But if I had to pick one, it'd be Gavin
- 16:26Speaker 3: Williams to play into ownership there, and I do like that.
- 16:30Speaker 3: So yeah, I think we broke down the top tier
- 16:32Speaker 3: pretty good. I know you had mentioned down in the
- 16:35Speaker 3: lower tier some of these guys a little bit. I
- 16:37Speaker 3: don't know that I love Walker Bieler there. I get it,
- 16:41Speaker 3: no Ellie and that Red's lineup and the strikeouts are there.
- 16:44Speaker 3: I just I'm not a Walker Beler guy. I'd rather
- 16:46Speaker 3: take a shot on a guy like Andrew Abbott on
- 16:48Speaker 3: the other side of that game. Personally, I just I
- 16:51Speaker 3: think Abbott does have something down there in his repertoire.
- 16:55Speaker 3: I mean, you look at the Padres. They've been like
- 16:56Speaker 3: one of the worst offenses in baseball since the start
- 16:58Speaker 3: of May. Yeah, they're starting to get it going a
- 17:02Speaker 3: little bit, but I mean sixty eight hundred, he's probably
- 17:04Speaker 3: got a longer leash because the Reds bullpen is much
- 17:07Speaker 3: worse than the Padres. So if Bueeler gets into any
- 17:10Speaker 3: sort of issues or trouble, they're just gonna pull him
- 17:12Speaker 3: go to that bullpen. I mean Abbot at sixty eight hundred,
- 17:15Speaker 3: I think he has strike on upside. His projection is worse,
- 17:18Speaker 3: but his ownership is gonna be down the charts, and
- 17:22Speaker 3: I think he's a good SP two option to get
- 17:25Speaker 3: you twelve to fifteen points here. And if that total
- 17:28Speaker 3: or that Sacramento game right goes off for what it's
- 17:32Speaker 3: anticipated for eleven plus runs and those salaries on those
- 17:36Speaker 3: hitters out there, you're gonna need some cheaper guys overall.
- 17:40Speaker 3: So I think Abbot's fairly interesting down here. Grayson Rodriguez.
- 17:44Speaker 3: I liked your shout there just because he's a bet
- 17:46Speaker 3: on talent and it is still Houston against the righty,
- 17:49Speaker 3: so I don't mind that. But yeah, it's I mean,
- 17:52Speaker 3: it's pretty gross down down low, and ideally I want
- 17:55Speaker 3: two of those top tier arms in Sanchez, Harrison Arraghetti,
- 18:00Speaker 3: Alvin Williams early in Web are kind of the main guys.
- 18:02Speaker 2: I'm looking that up there. Any any kind of closing
- 18:04Speaker 2: takes from the pitching.
- 18:07Speaker 4: No, My only closing take is even more interesting. The
- 18:11Speaker 4: Brewers might be in an even better spot here. This
- 18:15Speaker 4: game is being played in in the in Las Vegas tonight,
- 18:17Speaker 4: in their actual stadium, their minor league stadium in Las Vegas.
- 18:21Speaker 4: So I'm still trying to see if it's better than Sacramento,
- 18:24Speaker 4: but I can't imagine it's worse. So yeah, you might
- 18:27Speaker 4: really even want to spend up on the Brewers even more. So,
- 18:30Speaker 4: just an interesting note as we head into talk offenses.
- 18:33Speaker 3: Yeah, good, good catch. Yeah, that's I was misspeaking West Sacramento.
- 18:38Speaker 3: But I did see this, uh ballpark battle did post
- 18:41Speaker 3: out a tweet. Right, in terms of elevation, this isn't
- 18:44Speaker 3: quite coarse field elevation, but it's definitely the best second
- 18:48Speaker 3: highest elevation stadium in all of these all of baseball.
- 18:54Speaker 2: And you add in the weather out there in Vegas.
- 18:57Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's it's hard to imagine and that
- 19:00Speaker 3: this is not going to be a bump to bats.
- 19:03Speaker 2: Right.
- 19:04Speaker 4: They played a game yesterday and it was twenty one
- 19:06Speaker 4: to ten.
- 19:07Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, exactly, So obviously this is it's a it's
- 19:11Speaker 3: a very hard hard spot to go in with arms,
- 19:14Speaker 3: and I just I don't know, it's it's hard to tell.
- 19:17Speaker 3: And we'll see really how good Kyle Harrison is at
- 19:20Speaker 3: this right, So obviously you're gonna want that game from
- 19:23Speaker 3: bats on both sides That's why you see the A's
- 19:25Speaker 3: at almost a five implied run total against.
- 19:28Speaker 2: A guy who's arguably right up there.
- 19:30Speaker 3: In the cy Young voting with Christopher Sanchez Jacob Menzerowski
- 19:34Speaker 3: in terms of the metrics, right, So you wouldn't see
- 19:37Speaker 3: that if this game was played played, if this game
- 19:40Speaker 3: was in Milwaukee, the A's would probably have like a
- 19:42Speaker 3: three implied run total here, So they're like almost double
- 19:46Speaker 3: what they would be.
- 19:47Speaker 2: So the weather's real. Any any additional like the value
- 19:52Speaker 2: tier here, Buehler Rodner.
- 19:54Speaker 4: I'm with you on Abbot, like I think Abbot and
- 19:57Speaker 4: Bueler are kind of similar, and that you're just playing
- 19:59Speaker 4: the matchup. Both Padres and Reds have really struggled them.
- 20:02Speaker 4: I'm with you that Abbot's probably more talented at this
- 20:04Speaker 4: point than Bueler, So like, I got no issues with
- 20:07Speaker 4: wanting to play him over Bueler. The matchup is honestly
- 20:10Speaker 4: pretty similar. Both teams really struggling. I mean, you get
- 20:14Speaker 4: into this ballpark, you really want to get weirder to
- 20:17Speaker 4: pay up for offense. I think you could use both
- 20:19Speaker 4: pitchers in that game. I think I like Bueler a
- 20:21Speaker 4: little bit more, but I got no arguments that Abbot's
- 20:23Speaker 4: just is good to have a play, if not better.
- 20:26Speaker 2: Yeah, I just look at the rate.
- 20:27Speaker 3: I mean, you look at the padres over the last
- 20:28Speaker 3: month against left handed pitching. Thirty percent k rate with
- 20:32Speaker 3: some of the projected guys in there forty percent, forty
- 20:35Speaker 3: six percent, thirty percent, thirty one percent, twenty nine percent.
- 20:39Speaker 3: That's like, I mean that includes Tatis Machado. I mean
- 20:43Speaker 3: that the only guys that really haven't struck struck out
- 20:46Speaker 3: against lefties all over the last month, which is a
- 20:49Speaker 3: lot of played appearance. I mean, that's one hundred and
- 20:51Speaker 3: sixty six played appearances against left handed pitching over the
- 20:54Speaker 3: last month. And you're looking at a thirty percent k
- 20:56Speaker 3: rate and nobody's going to play this guy at six
- 21:00Speaker 3: eight and one.
- 21:00Speaker 4: Of them yesterday too.
- 21:03Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 21:03Speaker 3: I mean it's not that Abbot's a ace by any means,
- 21:05Speaker 3: but he's pitching in one of the best ballparks in
- 21:07Speaker 3: baseball to pitch in.
- 21:08Speaker 2: Nobody's gonna play him. He's he's cheap on a slate
- 21:12Speaker 2: where we have an eleven top total that probably flies
- 21:15Speaker 2: over the over the post of total on both sides
- 21:18Speaker 2: of offense out in Vegas, right.
- 21:20Speaker 3: So, uh, Abbot's probably my favorite cheaper pitcher on the
- 21:23Speaker 3: slate and feels gross to say that. It's just it's
- 21:26Speaker 3: a matchup play at at the salary, right, So I
- 21:29Speaker 3: do like that. Let's jump over here, Matt and showcase.
- 21:33Speaker 3: I do want to showcase this off real quick. Here
- 21:35Speaker 3: Matt our slate station. So this is second going on
- 21:41Speaker 3: a second week now since it's been available. Here really
- 21:45Speaker 3: a one stop shop here for all things you need
- 21:48Speaker 3: for the slate.
- 21:49Speaker 2: Right. It gives you kind of a summary down on
- 21:51Speaker 2: the bottom of a slate breakdown. The AI summary.
- 21:54Speaker 3: Of this show. Our live show will will populate in
- 21:57Speaker 3: here as well. You got the weather here which pulls
- 21:59Speaker 3: it API right from Kevin Roth, so you don't have
- 22:02Speaker 3: to have multiple tabs. Open, gives you kind of a
- 22:05Speaker 3: value breakdown, gives you all the hitter rankings that we
- 22:08Speaker 3: have our proprietary kind of formulation behind the scenes that.
- 22:12Speaker 2: Makes it very easy to sort.
- 22:13Speaker 3: I have disordered by kind of the core hitters that
- 22:15Speaker 3: you want to look at here tonight. If you want
- 22:17Speaker 3: to look at home run Radar, while you can just
- 22:19Speaker 3: click on home Run Radar, it'll filter to however many
- 22:21Speaker 3: hitters on the slate. If you want to look at
- 22:24Speaker 3: value bats well, it'll give you the value there again,
- 22:27Speaker 3: Core Hitters Stack two. It really kind of pulls everything
- 22:30Speaker 3: down and makes it super user friendly. You can see
- 22:33Speaker 3: the stack rankings here right, you can filter it, you
- 22:36Speaker 3: can kind of read up, read up everything, pitch a ranking,
- 22:39Speaker 3: same thing. It'll show you the ownership, their projection kind
- 22:42Speaker 3: of everything. And we have this for both FANDO and DraftKings.
- 22:45Speaker 3: And then once we have our actual cores, whether it's yourself, me,
- 22:49Speaker 3: g Rise, and Ham on the weekends, this dk GPP
- 22:53Speaker 3: will switch to whoever's doing the cores to post it
- 22:56Speaker 3: up here. So I mean, between this and the still
- 23:00Speaker 3: which we're gonna share right here to go.
- 23:03Speaker 2: Through, I mean, I don't think there's really much more.
- 23:06Speaker 3: You put that either one of those up right, the
- 23:08Speaker 3: stone or the slate station up on one screen.
- 23:11Speaker 2: You have saber same up on the other screen.
- 23:13Speaker 3: And you should at least give yourself competitive lineups, right
- 23:18Speaker 3: or at least give yourself a lens into having a
- 23:21Speaker 3: shot to be competitive on any given slate, regardless of
- 23:25Speaker 3: what night it is.
- 23:27Speaker 2: So I can't say enough about the slate station. It's
- 23:30Speaker 2: won a ton of money.
- 23:31Speaker 3: I almost shipped a couple of days last week, right,
- 23:34Speaker 3: had a really good week, picked up a bunch of
- 23:36Speaker 3: tickets to some hi higher dollar tournaments and things like.
- 23:40Speaker 2: That, and all of those days I was on the go, right.
- 23:42Speaker 3: So you know, when you're on the go traveling, you
- 23:45Speaker 3: don't have a ton of time to look into things.
- 23:47Speaker 3: It's nice to have a tool to really simplify kind
- 23:51Speaker 3: of your research process. Right, if you don't have an
- 23:54Speaker 3: hour to watch this show that we do here, Right,
- 23:56Speaker 3: you're getting home from work, you got your family, you
- 23:58Speaker 3: got your wife and kids at home. You know that
- 24:00Speaker 3: your family man there with some young kids, right, you
- 24:03Speaker 3: got the baby, and you got attend to your kids
- 24:06Speaker 3: all the time.
- 24:06Speaker 2: Right, Sometimes you just don't have time.
- 24:08Speaker 3: And we know the majority of our member base doesn't
- 24:11Speaker 3: have a ton of time when they get home from work,
- 24:13Speaker 3: start dinner, spending time with their kids and their wife
- 24:16Speaker 3: and family, and whoever right gives you kind of pull
- 24:20Speaker 3: up the slate station. You get a good idea and
- 24:22Speaker 3: then you can kind of add in your personal bias
- 24:24Speaker 3: to that from there. So I can't say enough about that,
- 24:27Speaker 3: But let's go ahead and jump over here and talk
- 24:30Speaker 3: the hitting side of things.
- 24:31Speaker 2: First game in the mound. We're up in Baltimore, Trey Gibson.
- 24:35Speaker 3: More of a bullpen game here from the art the
- 24:38Speaker 3: o's Gibson's not going to go super long here. Oh's
- 24:40Speaker 3: got a really good bullpen behind him. Emerson Hancock, like
- 24:44Speaker 3: I said, I mean, he started off the season and
- 24:48Speaker 3: we talked about kind of smoking mirrors a while. He
- 24:50Speaker 3: started to regress down a little bit here, still a
- 24:53Speaker 3: serviceable arm in general. Don't love the O side of it.
- 24:59Speaker 3: No basal or adly in that lineup does hurt overall
- 25:03Speaker 3: there to target Emerson Hancock. The Mariners, though, probably going
- 25:07Speaker 3: to be one of the higher on stacks just because
- 25:09Speaker 3: of these salaries right.
- 25:10Speaker 2: When people want to spend up for pitching and spend
- 25:12Speaker 2: up for the.
- 25:13Speaker 3: Brewers out in Vegas, Mariners make it very easy to
- 25:17Speaker 3: do that good implied run total here against a pitcher
- 25:20Speaker 3: who you want to target.
- 25:22Speaker 2: So Mariners look pretty solid here. What do you see
- 25:24Speaker 2: in this one? To start us off?
- 25:27Speaker 4: We start off with a game I like both sides
- 25:29Speaker 4: of So you get the Mariners against Trey Gibson, who's
- 25:32Speaker 4: not good at all in my opinion. Baltimore does have
- 25:35Speaker 4: a good bullpen, especially back end, but you got to
- 25:37Speaker 4: get to it first. So I like both sides of
- 25:41Speaker 4: this game. Talk about Trey Gibson being bad Mariners on
- 25:44Speaker 4: the road. You take them out of one of, if
- 25:47Speaker 4: not the worst ballpark for hitting, put them into even
- 25:50Speaker 4: the neutral park and they're going to look a lot better.
- 25:52Speaker 4: And they do here for price tags just never get
- 25:55Speaker 4: crazy high because they don't get played when they're at home.
- 25:59Speaker 4: So now that they're on the road, I like them
- 26:01Speaker 4: a lot here. I think you can play them one
- 26:02Speaker 4: through nine. Still know JP Crawford, so you got Cole
- 26:05Speaker 4: Young leading off. I'm a fan. I like the Seattle
- 26:08Speaker 4: line up quite a bit, and then Baltimore. I'm higher
- 26:12Speaker 4: on Baltimore than the field. They've been good recently. I
- 26:15Speaker 4: don't like that Rutchman is out, Pisio out as well,
- 26:18Speaker 4: and you got pinch hit risk with Huff for sure,
- 26:20Speaker 4: But I like the matchup Hancock do for some negative
- 26:25Speaker 4: regression and you get him on the road now. He's
- 26:28Speaker 4: one of these guys that pitches much better in Seattle.
- 26:31Speaker 4: And I like the Orioles as a sleeper stack here.
- 26:34Speaker 4: I don't expect them to get much love at all
- 26:35Speaker 4: because the guys you want are expensive and I think
- 26:38Speaker 4: they have upside here. They were really good all weekend
- 26:41Speaker 4: in Toronto and weren't played at all. I think that
- 26:43Speaker 4: continues here. So I'm in on both these offenses.
- 26:47Speaker 3: Yeah, I do think Theo's are pretty interesting as well,
- 26:50Speaker 3: on the side that nobody's really gonna play of the two.
- 26:54Speaker 2: Overall. You look at Seattle's bullpen, it's it's good.
- 26:58Speaker 3: I mean it's it's top ten in the league in
- 26:59Speaker 3: terms of X fit, which doesn't doesn't excite me too much.
- 27:04Speaker 3: But Hancock, you want the leftiest, so click Colton Kwser
- 27:06Speaker 3: looks really good. Jackson Holliday back in this lineup does
- 27:10Speaker 3: help the depth of the lineup. I think he's a
- 27:12Speaker 3: really good play. Pete Alonso, Mayo, Blasee Alexander have been
- 27:16Speaker 3: really really good against right handed pitching as well. Mayo
- 27:19Speaker 3: there is some strikeout risks there, but he does have
- 27:21Speaker 3: power as well. Gunner obviously he always has upside. You
- 27:25Speaker 3: got a fairly cheap Tavares down there hitting in the
- 27:29Speaker 3: heart of that lineup at thirty five hundred.
- 27:31Speaker 2: I think he's interesting. So yeah, Mariners are probably better
- 27:34Speaker 2: on paper, but at ownership and in GPPs against a
- 27:38Speaker 2: team that nobody really is gonna get too much in
- 27:40Speaker 2: the Oreos.
- 27:41Speaker 3: They have tons of upside here. There is some slight
- 27:45Speaker 3: weather kind of blowing not weather win kind of blown
- 27:48Speaker 3: across the field here at but nine to nine to
- 27:51Speaker 3: ten twelve miles an hour is what I'm seeing kind
- 27:55Speaker 3: of out to that left field foul pole. So if
- 27:58Speaker 3: that helps anything, maybe some of the righty's right I
- 28:01Speaker 3: thing makes some sense. I did want to call out
- 28:03Speaker 3: Colt Emerson. Don't forget about him in your Mariner stacks.
- 28:07Speaker 3: He's really good against righty's obviously a big time prospect
- 28:10Speaker 3: for them. Sign a massive, massive contract with the Mariners
- 28:15Speaker 3: here thirty seven hundred. Like I said, super cheap, you
- 28:18Speaker 3: can wrap it around. Yeah, I mean he's very good.
- 28:21Speaker 2: Cole Young.
- 28:21Speaker 3: You got a cheap second basement there, which is obviously
- 28:24Speaker 3: it's all the way up to Bryce Terrang at what
- 28:26Speaker 3: six k or a value guy, a guy like Cole Young.
- 28:29Speaker 2: Same thing at third base.
- 28:30Speaker 3: Second and third base usually a pretty weak position there,
- 28:33Speaker 3: so you got two guys to fit that. And then
- 28:35Speaker 3: Luke Railey and Canzone Murder right handed pitching. So yeah,
- 28:38Speaker 3: really good game for offense on both sides to kick
- 28:41Speaker 3: off the slate next one. Here we're out in Tampa.
- 28:44Speaker 3: Connelly Early one of my favorite pitchers in terms of tournaments.
- 28:48Speaker 3: Here the Rays have been kind of pesky.
- 28:52Speaker 2: As of late.
- 28:53Speaker 3: But I don't know how you look on paper right
- 28:55Speaker 3: this this lineup just looks gross. I mean, you got
- 28:58Speaker 3: Austin Slater obviously, just a platoon guy there against lefties.
- 29:02Speaker 3: He's back in there so if he doesn't get a
- 29:04Speaker 3: home run, he's a strikeout. So that does help Cannelly
- 29:07Speaker 3: Early as long as he can hopefully not allow the
- 29:12Speaker 3: home run there. But this game I don't love from
- 29:15Speaker 3: offense on either side. Here they have upside, but there's
- 29:18Speaker 3: much better spots I think, so this isn't one that
- 29:21Speaker 3: I love. Duran's getting going a little bit, but his
- 29:23Speaker 3: price is coming up. A bray You is probably my
- 29:26Speaker 3: favorite if you had to pick up Red Sox, a
- 29:28Speaker 3: bray You or Catreras, just because they've been really good
- 29:31Speaker 3: and they're forty two forty four hundred. But I don't
- 29:33Speaker 3: love this game from offense. What do you see in
- 29:35Speaker 3: this one?
- 29:37Speaker 4: Same? I'm off this game. Other spots are just like
- 29:39Speaker 4: so much more. This might be I don't know if
- 29:41Speaker 4: it's my least favorite spot on the slate, but one
- 29:43Speaker 4: of them we got good weather. Like all over, I
- 29:47Speaker 4: don't like this game for offense at all. Yeah, I
- 29:51Speaker 4: respect Early certainly enough, and you know, don't really want
- 29:55Speaker 4: to target to raise bullpen with the Red Sox stack.
- 29:58Speaker 2: Tonight, that's going to be a bullpen game from the Rays.
- 30:02Speaker 3: I hate attacking bullpen game, especially with the shitty offense
- 30:05Speaker 3: like Boston. So yeah, probably my least favorite game. Like
- 30:08Speaker 3: you said on the slate, there don't don't love it.
- 30:11Speaker 3: Next spot here, Will Warren Gavin Williams, two good real
- 30:13Speaker 3: life arms. Gavin Williams probably consensus best starting pitching play
- 30:17Speaker 3: on the slate at salary. He is going to be
- 30:20Speaker 3: owned as such, especially in single entrees stuff that we
- 30:23Speaker 3: talked about. I see him approaching fifty, mid fifties, potentially
- 30:28Speaker 3: even sixty percent in some stuff like the one twenty one.
- 30:31Speaker 2: I would be shocked to see Gavin Williams under a
- 30:32Speaker 2: fifty percent. Like I'm just I don't see it.
- 30:36Speaker 3: There's always downside facing the Yankees, but again with no
- 30:39Speaker 3: Aaron Judge, this lineup does take a pretty big hit.
- 30:42Speaker 2: Grisham Ben Rice.
- 30:43Speaker 3: Obviously, Rice has been incredible all year he's really good
- 30:46Speaker 3: at baseball. Bellinger Jazz, I mean, there's there's definitely downside here,
- 30:51Speaker 3: But I mean Gavin Williams, I trust him enough. I
- 30:54Speaker 3: don't love the Yankees. The Yankees always have upside in tournaments.
- 30:57Speaker 3: I'll definitely have some Yankee stacks, just be because they're
- 31:00Speaker 3: the Yankees in mmme, but I don't love them. They're
- 31:03Speaker 3: definitely not a top stack for me by any means.
- 31:05Speaker 3: Guardians kind of same thing, However, Will Warren is much
- 31:08Speaker 3: more susceptible to lefties, and the Guardians are gonna throw
- 31:13Speaker 3: nine lefties Adam obviously two of those being switch hitters.
- 31:16Speaker 3: I think as a kind of a sneaky unknowned value stack.
- 31:21Speaker 3: As a pivot off of Seattle, I think the Guardians
- 31:24Speaker 3: could make some sense. You don't love picking on the
- 31:27Speaker 3: Yankees pitching in that bullpen, but in tournaments, say you're
- 31:31Speaker 3: eating the chalk at pitching, right, you're going Gavin Williams
- 31:33Speaker 3: and Logan Web with some Brewers. Why not pair up
- 31:37Speaker 3: some Guardians right to get a little different When all
- 31:39Speaker 3: of those Brewer stacks are gonna have the Mariners value mats.
- 31:43Speaker 3: If you pivot to the Guardians right, well, that's a
- 31:46Speaker 3: little thing that you can do to be different. You
- 31:48Speaker 3: don't have to be off the wall in baseball. You
- 31:49Speaker 3: can still play good plays and get different that way. Right, So,
- 31:53Speaker 3: guardians I think are kind of interesting just because Will
- 31:57Speaker 3: Warren is more susceptible against the left side. He's gonna
- 31:59Speaker 3: see nine lefties here, what do you see?
- 32:02Speaker 4: Yeah, So I agree with you. Actually, I think both
- 32:05Speaker 4: sides are in play if you're not playing Gavin Williams
- 32:07Speaker 4: at the ownership that he's commanding right now, the Yankees
- 32:10Speaker 4: are in play. I mean, still a very capable offense.
- 32:14Speaker 4: They got power and they run, and you've got really
- 32:17Speaker 4: good hitting weather here, big boost the home runs. It's
- 32:20Speaker 4: hot in Cleveland today, I mean might be the hottest
- 32:23Speaker 4: day of the year so far. So yeah, Like I
- 32:27Speaker 4: Gavin Williams is a dog and I think he's an ace,
- 32:31Speaker 4: but he's not like a top He's not like a
- 32:35Speaker 4: top three guy, at least not yet. So he can
- 32:37Speaker 4: get got and he puts guys on base when he's
- 32:40Speaker 4: not on his best stuff. So there's definitely a role
- 32:43Speaker 4: for the Yankees on this slate. I'm not sure how
- 32:45Speaker 4: many lineups it would take me to get there. But man,
- 32:48Speaker 4: you talk about the leverage they're offering both sides. Are
- 32:51Speaker 4: Rildy in play the Cleveland side just because they look better.
- 32:54Speaker 4: Warren isn't getting the ownership, but Warren isn't as good
- 32:56Speaker 4: as Gavin Williams. And I like the Guardian's line up
- 32:59Speaker 4: a little bit more than New Yorks.
- 33:00Speaker 3: Right now, Yeah, I agree. Menzarto has been been really solid. Obviously,
- 33:05Speaker 3: there's a lot of strikeout risks there. Bozana fill in
- 33:08Speaker 3: second base, right, I think he's a really good play.
- 33:10Speaker 3: Jay Ram is a DFS cheat code, right, because if
- 33:13Speaker 3: he's not hitting home runs or hitting doubles, right, he's
- 33:15Speaker 3: stealing bases as well, So he's got a ton of upside.
- 33:18Speaker 3: Martine has been solid, Patrick Bailey got a cheap catcher,
- 33:21Speaker 3: and then ro Chio, right, don't forget about him. He's
- 33:24Speaker 3: he's got to fund a little power stretch as of late. Right,
- 33:27Speaker 3: hit a bomb yesterday their day before saw he's thirty
- 33:30Speaker 3: four hundred at shortstop and it makes a nice wrap around, right,
- 33:34Speaker 3: you can go Bailey, Roschio and then wrap it up
- 33:37Speaker 3: to the top in Bozana, Jay Ram, the latter Manzarto.
- 33:40Speaker 3: I mean this this whole lineup on paper is pretty solid.
- 33:43Speaker 3: Rich Homi Kwan, it would be my least favorite. I
- 33:45Speaker 3: just never play him, so i'd probably leave him out.
- 33:49Speaker 3: But yeah, I think the Guardians are are pretty interesting
- 33:52Speaker 3: at the salaries here and nobody's gonna click their names,
- 33:55Speaker 3: and I do see upside for them tonight.
- 33:58Speaker 2: Next spot here, Blue Jays and the Phillies Christopher Sanchez,
- 34:01Speaker 2: Patrick Corbyn. I don't love this game.
- 34:04Speaker 3: Phillies probably get ownership just because everyone's got it baked
- 34:07Speaker 3: in their head right that Patrick Corbin's a gas can
- 34:09Speaker 3: and he's not a great arm by any means. But
- 34:12Speaker 3: I mean, really, the best kind of upside is the
- 34:15Speaker 3: stolen basis so Trey Turner, Bryson Scott, Brandon Marsh, even
- 34:20Speaker 3: lefty Lefty Marsh is just raking baseballs right now.
- 34:23Speaker 2: I don't love this game either side.
- 34:25Speaker 3: Here for offense, I know the Phillies have a good
- 34:27Speaker 3: implied run total.
- 34:28Speaker 2: It's still Patrick Corbyn on them mound.
- 34:30Speaker 3: They have upside, but I don't like them very much
- 34:34Speaker 3: here tonight. And I'm just gonna not be very high
- 34:38Speaker 3: on this game from an offense. But what do you
- 34:40Speaker 3: see in this one up in Toronto?
- 34:41Speaker 4: Here? I think I like the Phillies more than you,
- 34:44Speaker 4: but I have to think they get ownership and there
- 34:46Speaker 4: are other good weather spots on this slate. Corbyn, I think,
- 34:49Speaker 4: is a guy that people like to pick on more
- 34:51Speaker 4: than me. Anyways, So I like the Phillies, but I'm
- 34:55Speaker 4: fine not playing them. Like if I were playing one
- 34:57Speaker 4: lineup tonight, I don't think it would be a Philly stack.
- 35:00Speaker 4: They certainly have upside we saw yesterday. They're cheap enough
- 35:03Speaker 4: to so I'm I think I like the Phillies a
- 35:08Speaker 4: little bit more than you, But at the end of
- 35:11Speaker 4: the day, like I don't think either of us would
- 35:13Speaker 4: play them in one lineup, So we basically get to
- 35:15Speaker 4: the same conclusion. And I don't think it's that you
- 35:17Speaker 4: don't like the Phillies. I think there are just other
- 35:19Speaker 4: spots you like more and the Phillies are gonna get ownership.
- 35:23Speaker 3: Yeah, correct, Yeah, we obviously when we look at our
- 35:26Speaker 3: kind of staff rankings, Phillies are our top four.
- 35:29Speaker 2: Ownership is going to be there because of that.
- 35:31Speaker 3: Right, everybody's production system can see it's Patrick Corbin Phillies
- 35:35Speaker 3: against a lefty here, Trey Turner, Alec Bohm, Real Mudo.
- 35:40Speaker 2: Those are kind of the main guys you're looking at there.
- 35:42Speaker 3: But yeah, I don't love this spot compared to other
- 35:44Speaker 3: spots on the slate, and I'm probably gonna be under
- 35:48Speaker 3: on the Phillies and if they beat me, they beat me.
- 35:49Speaker 3: But yeah, that's kind of the approach I'm taking. Blue
- 35:52Speaker 3: Jays not really much interest against Christopher Sanchez. It's the
- 35:56Speaker 3: argument against not playing Christopher Sanchez is his salary and
- 35:59Speaker 3: maybe he goes out there and get just six k's
- 36:01Speaker 3: instead of ten k's and go seven innings and is
- 36:05Speaker 3: that enough at at eleven five hundred with the game
- 36:09Speaker 3: if the Vegas game does what it does, probably not right.
- 36:13Speaker 2: So that's more of the argument.
- 36:14Speaker 3: It's not like I'm going to play these Blue Jays
- 36:16Speaker 3: against him as some sort of leverage or anything like that.
- 36:18Speaker 3: I just I don't want to pick on one of
- 36:20Speaker 3: the best pitchers, if not the best pitcher in the
- 36:23Speaker 3: league's so or in the league so far. Next game,
- 36:26Speaker 3: Angels Astros late night window here for the last four games,
- 36:31Speaker 3: which are obviously all really really good games that we're
- 36:34Speaker 3: gonna talk about here. Ragetti on the Mountain, Grayson Rodriguez,
- 36:37Speaker 3: we saw the downside. Grayson Rodriguez can have in his
- 36:40Speaker 3: last start there, I think it was his last start, right,
- 36:45Speaker 3: he does still have talent there, but if he can't
- 36:48Speaker 3: command it, it can go south in a hurry. Here,
- 36:50Speaker 3: Astros gonna be probably the second highest on stack on
- 36:55Speaker 3: the slate, behind either Seattle or Milwaukee.
- 37:00Speaker 2: I mean, Jordan is hitting beach balls right now.
- 37:02Speaker 3: He looks probably like one of the best plays on
- 37:04Speaker 3: the slate in general, sixty two hundred for him, he's
- 37:07Speaker 3: gonna get on, But I mean he looks like one
- 37:09Speaker 3: of the best bats on the entire slate, So it's
- 37:11Speaker 3: hard to argue there. I mean, you got a bad
- 37:14Speaker 3: bullpen behind Grayson Rodriguez, who can pitch himself right out
- 37:17Speaker 3: of the inning in general, or right out of.
- 37:19Speaker 2: The game in general with his command issues.
- 37:21Speaker 3: Arraghetti can have command issues at time as well, which
- 37:25Speaker 3: could lead to the Angels kind of getting there and
- 37:27Speaker 3: then the Astros bullpen, while it is improved from what
- 37:30Speaker 3: it has been with getting some of their guys back,
- 37:32Speaker 3: it's still not a great bullpen.
- 37:34Speaker 2: So this game looks like offense on both sides here.
- 37:36Speaker 3: For me much preferred the Astro side if picking one,
- 37:39Speaker 3: but still don't have these kind of either of these
- 37:42Speaker 3: offense really stacking up with some of the other teams
- 37:44Speaker 3: that we talked about and we're gonna talk about here,
- 37:46Speaker 3: But I do think the Astros on paper look really
- 37:49Speaker 3: solid here against Grayson Rodriguez.
- 37:51Speaker 2: What do you see though?
- 37:53Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree with you, but I think the Astros
- 37:55Speaker 4: are kind of your Phillies, like my phillies for you.
- 37:58Speaker 4: I get it. They're in a good spot against Grayson Rodriguez.
- 38:02Speaker 4: There's just other thoughts out like more and like I said,
- 38:04Speaker 4: no matter how awful he was last start out and
- 38:08Speaker 4: how up and down he's been this year, I still
- 38:10Speaker 4: respect Rodriguez enough where there are pitchers i'd rather pick
- 38:12Speaker 4: on on this slate, and he's like Houston's getting ownership,
- 38:16Speaker 4: So I'm probably not gonna be on Houston personally, not
- 38:20Speaker 4: that I don't get it. I mean jord On, you
- 38:22Speaker 4: talked about it. He's been the best hit or of
- 38:24Speaker 4: baseball this year. So if you're stacking Houston, he probably
- 38:27Speaker 4: wants some jord On exposure and they're cheap outside of him.
- 38:31Speaker 4: So I get Houston. I just don't know if I'm
- 38:34Speaker 4: personally gonna play them, but certainly things can change if
- 38:37Speaker 4: their ownership comes down or you know, projections, you know,
- 38:42Speaker 4: sim start loving them before, maybe I'll change my stance.
- 38:44Speaker 4: But as of right now, I don't think I'm gonna
- 38:46Speaker 4: be over the field on Houston. I do think the
- 38:49Speaker 4: Angels are in play. Just like talked about with Arrogetty.
- 38:54Speaker 4: You know, you could play him because of the matchup.
- 38:56Speaker 4: That's the only reason I'd be playing him, because he
- 38:58Speaker 4: hasn't been particularly good this year. You look under the hood,
- 39:01Speaker 4: he's got like a one something ERA close to a
- 39:03Speaker 4: five expected. Dra hasn't even been prying that many guys.
- 39:07Speaker 4: You're just playing him because of the matchup. But he's expensive.
- 39:10Speaker 4: And the Angels we saw yesterday they got Mtsghn out
- 39:14Speaker 4: of the game early and proceeded to put up like
- 39:16Speaker 4: fourteen runs against the Dodgers bullpen. They got power when
- 39:19Speaker 4: they make contact. So I think the Angels aren't play
- 39:22Speaker 4: on this late. We talked about like the one to
- 39:24Speaker 4: eleven bigger tournaments tonight. You know, they're an outside the
- 39:28Speaker 4: box stack that won't get any love. That I think
- 39:30Speaker 4: is upside.
- 39:32Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree on as a stack, I prefer the Angels.
- 39:35Speaker 3: Obviously, jord On Trump's anything in this game for me
- 39:40Speaker 3: as as does it for everybody else, I'm sure, but
- 39:45Speaker 3: wayde Meckler I think is I mean, I think this
- 39:48Speaker 3: kid kid is going to be I mean, I think
- 39:51Speaker 3: he's solid and he's thirty eight hundred with power against Arraghetti.
- 39:55Speaker 3: I don't hate that. Yeah, I like the Angels more
- 39:59Speaker 3: when you consider ship It's still the Bullpens are pretty
- 40:03Speaker 3: similar in terms of I mean five and six in
- 40:07Speaker 3: terms of x FIP over the first or over the
- 40:10Speaker 3: season so far, so it's equal on both sides. I
- 40:14Speaker 3: do like both sides, but overall, I think the Angels
- 40:18Speaker 3: I really like that one two three, Nettle, Trout, Meckler, Shanuel,
- 40:22Speaker 3: you got a cheap first baseman there, Astros, You're probably
- 40:25Speaker 3: gonna see some cheaper lefties. Right, lefties is what gets
- 40:28Speaker 3: to Grayson. So you'll probably see Taylor Tramil make the lineup.
- 40:31Speaker 2: You'll probably see LaMonte Wade make the lineup as well,
- 40:36Speaker 2: at least if I'm the manager here, because that's really
- 40:40Speaker 2: what tags up Grayson the most. It is the lefties.
- 40:42Speaker 2: So you probably see some more lefties.
- 40:45Speaker 3: Definitely, Tramo probably makes it and Wade might even make
- 40:48Speaker 3: it as well. So yeah, I mean obviously one of
- 40:52Speaker 3: the best games on paper here. Both sides definitely top
- 40:55Speaker 3: five stacks for probably everybody, but I do slightly lean
- 40:59Speaker 3: the Angel side more so. Meckler is probably one of
- 41:03Speaker 3: my favorite bats at the salary as well, which I
- 41:06Speaker 3: do like quite a bit.
- 41:08Speaker 2: Next game, Padres Reds.
- 41:10Speaker 3: This is a game that you can probably put up
- 41:13Speaker 3: there in the caliber of the Rays and the Red Sox.
- 41:15Speaker 3: From an offensive standpoint, I don't love this game on
- 41:18Speaker 3: either side. Bueler's gonna get it some ownership down down low,
- 41:21Speaker 3: but I don't. It's not I I'm not gonna go
- 41:23Speaker 3: play the Reds. This is the spot where the Reds
- 41:25Speaker 3: do score runs. Though, when people are trying to streamline
- 41:28Speaker 3: a cheap starting pitcher, two offod bats and the Reds
- 41:32Speaker 3: are on own, that's usually when it's the time to
- 41:34Speaker 3: play the Reds.
- 41:35Speaker 2: But not for me here tonight in San Diego. What
- 41:37Speaker 2: do you see though?
- 41:38Speaker 4: Yeah, I've played a bunch of the Reds too recently
- 41:40Speaker 4: to know to obviously not much success. But they're facing
- 41:44Speaker 4: Bueler tonight, Like this Gameer at Cincinnati. I'd like the
- 41:47Speaker 4: Reds a lot, it's not Buehler is inconsistent slash not
- 41:52Speaker 4: good enough where you could consider using pieces of the
- 41:54Speaker 4: Reds that they're cheap, but certainly not a priority San Diego.
- 42:00Speaker 4: I feel like they should be so much better than
- 42:01Speaker 4: they are a guesst left handed pitching, but I'll probably
- 42:04Speaker 4: be saying that at the end of the year. Also,
- 42:06Speaker 4: so like, yeah, to TC, you want to use his
- 42:08Speaker 4: one off, Sure, Machado has been got off of this year.
- 42:11Speaker 4: This game's all about the pitching for me.
- 42:14Speaker 3: Yeah, I think JJ Bledah and Nathaniel Lowe are pretty interesting.
- 42:17Speaker 3: The reason being is a guy like Andrew Vaughan at
- 42:21Speaker 3: forty three hundred is going to be thirty to forty owned.
- 42:25Speaker 3: Nathaniel Lowe with some power at thirty five hundred is
- 42:28Speaker 3: going to be two percent owned. JJ Bleday same thing
- 42:31Speaker 3: fifty three hundred. A guy like Jackson Curio, right, I
- 42:37Speaker 3: mean you name it. Those outfielders in that Vegas game
- 42:39Speaker 3: are going to be off the charts compared to these guys.
- 42:43Speaker 2: And Bladet's been one of the better hitters in baseball too.
- 42:45Speaker 3: I mean, this dude's Nation and Baseball, so it doesn't
- 42:48Speaker 3: matter what park he's in. I think he's got power,
- 42:50Speaker 3: and his power is real when you look at his
- 42:52Speaker 3: bat speed and all of his kind of stat cast numbers.
- 42:56Speaker 3: So I think Bliday and Low are pretty interesting there.
- 42:59Speaker 3: But yeah, not a game where I'm really getting to
- 43:02Speaker 3: stacking or anything like that. If I had to pick
- 43:04Speaker 3: a side to be more on the Reds and then
- 43:06Speaker 3: the Padres, I think abbots are really solid play as
- 43:10Speaker 3: a cheap sp two on the slate. I didn't want
- 43:12Speaker 3: to call it Edwin Arroyo as well, second base shortstop
- 43:15Speaker 3: two k flat. This guy, this kid does have talent.
- 43:19Speaker 3: I mean, he's got power and speed and he's two
- 43:21Speaker 3: thousand dollars at on a slate where we have an
- 43:24Speaker 3: eleven implied run total where the bats you want in
- 43:27Speaker 3: that game are expensive, right, So I think he definitely
- 43:32Speaker 3: was worth a mention on the slate. Next game, Nationals Giants.
- 43:37Speaker 3: Two games left to talk about.
- 43:38Speaker 2: Miles michelis back in Our Lives on the Mold again.
- 43:42Speaker 2: Logan Web. We talked about Web.
- 43:44Speaker 3: It's going to be probably Logan Web and Gavin Williams
- 43:47Speaker 3: is the single entry cash game chalk pairing both probably
- 43:52Speaker 3: fifty plus percent on just projections wise, because it allows
- 43:55Speaker 3: you to spend up to get to those brewers. National
- 43:57Speaker 3: Z though anytime they're against a riety have to have
- 44:00Speaker 3: interest regardless of the ballpark. James Wood, Dylan Cruz, Curtis Mead,
- 44:04Speaker 3: I mean, this dude is I don't know what the
- 44:05Speaker 3: hell happened to Curtis Mead. He left Tampa and came
- 44:08Speaker 3: to the Nationals and now this dude is just Barry
- 44:11Speaker 3: Bonds out there.
- 44:12Speaker 2: I mean he hit. I think I was on the
- 44:14Speaker 2: show on Friday.
- 44:16Speaker 3: He was my home un call, didn't make the lineup
- 44:17Speaker 3: hit he then he hit a home run on Saturday,
- 44:20Speaker 3: so that was pretty funny. Cja Abrams obviously a cheat
- 44:23Speaker 3: code there, but those guys are expensive. It is in
- 44:27Speaker 3: San Fran. How many stats have won DFS slates in
- 44:31Speaker 3: San Fran Not a lot.
- 44:34Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 44:35Speaker 3: You get the leverage off of Logan web So in
- 44:37Speaker 3: lineups where maybe you pivot down to like an Andrew Abbott, right,
- 44:40Speaker 3: maybe you pull some of these more expensive Nationals like
- 44:43Speaker 3: a James Wood, a cja Abrams something like that at
- 44:45Speaker 3: daylan Lyle and you play Abbot instead of Logan Webb.
- 44:50Speaker 2: That'll follows you to get kind of on a different
- 44:51Speaker 2: roster construction there.
- 44:53Speaker 3: I think the Nationals in tournaments are are kind of
- 44:55Speaker 3: intriguing the Giant side as well. Right, Michelas has just
- 44:59Speaker 3: not been good. Giants are starting to hit the baseball.
- 45:01Speaker 3: They're still not a great offense, but Casey Smith's been
- 45:03Speaker 3: really solid. Devers is starting to hit again.
- 45:07Speaker 2: I don't know. I probably like this game more than
- 45:08Speaker 2: I should in the shitty ballpark, But what do you
- 45:11Speaker 2: see here? Matt?
- 45:11Speaker 4: Talk to me, man. The funniest thing is like, you
- 45:15Speaker 4: got the Giants against Miles Micholas and the Nationals against
- 45:18Speaker 4: Logan Webb, and I couldn't tell you which one I
- 45:21Speaker 4: like more because I like both because they both provide
- 45:25Speaker 4: really good, really good things for lack of a better word,
- 45:29Speaker 4: on this slate that the other one doesn't. So you
- 45:32Speaker 4: got the Giants, they face Miles Michaelis, who we always
- 45:36Speaker 4: want to pick on. This is kind of where the
- 45:38Speaker 4: rubber meets the road because you get Michaelas in this ballpark,
- 45:41Speaker 4: but I don't think San Fran gets hardly any ownership tonight.
- 45:44Speaker 4: They're cheap and they're facing Miles Michaelas. That's a good
- 45:48Speaker 4: combo for me then that we kind of talked about
- 45:51Speaker 4: him earlier. But Logan web is gonna be one of
- 45:55Speaker 4: the three most popular pitchers on the slate hasn't been
- 45:57Speaker 4: great this year, and then that's have been phenomenal against
- 46:00Speaker 4: right handed pitching. So, man, if there's ever a game
- 46:03Speaker 4: to go after hitting, I think, you know, hitting in
- 46:05Speaker 4: this ballpark, I think tonight is it smaller slate, no Cores,
- 46:10Speaker 4: no Dodgers, Yankees without judge. You do have the Brewers
- 46:14Speaker 4: in the Las Vegas Park, but they're just that's part
- 46:18Speaker 4: of the reason that this game isn't going to get
- 46:20Speaker 4: any love. And you know, it's not like there would
- 46:25Speaker 4: be no good spots on the slate. Jeffrey Springs is
- 46:28Speaker 4: good enough where it wouldn't be crazy if the Brewers
- 46:30Speaker 4: don't go off tonight. And if that's the case, I
- 46:33Speaker 4: wouldn't be surprised if either of these teams are on
- 46:35Speaker 4: the winner. And that's rare to say in this ballpark,
- 46:37Speaker 4: but I'm with you.
- 46:40Speaker 3: Yeah, you look at the Giants bullpen too, second worst
- 46:42Speaker 3: in baseball, So that adds in, right, if they are
- 46:44Speaker 3: able to get to Logan web or at least stretch
- 46:48Speaker 3: Logan webs pitch count, and I mean he can walk
- 46:51Speaker 3: walk guys himself, right, so we know that then you
- 46:56Speaker 3: got a bad bullpen as well for the Nats, and predominantly,
- 47:00Speaker 3: I mean you probably.
- 47:00Speaker 2: See some riti's coming out of there.
- 47:03Speaker 3: I think I prefer the Giant side more just because
- 47:05Speaker 3: Micholas is a gas can and I streamline anyone really
- 47:11Speaker 3: against him and usually it goes south. But I mean,
- 47:14Speaker 3: anytime there's a fifteen percent strikeout right arm on the
- 47:16Speaker 3: slate that gets barreled up by both sides gives up
- 47:20Speaker 3: power fly balls, I mean you have upside there. Schmidt Devers,
- 47:25Speaker 3: you probably get a cheap Drew Gilbert in there, Bryce
- 47:28Speaker 3: Eldridge as a cheap first baseman as well.
- 47:32Speaker 2: So yeah, there's upside on both sides.
- 47:34Speaker 3: And this is probably one of my couple of my
- 47:38Speaker 3: sneaker favorite offenses on the slate where it does.
- 47:41Speaker 2: Seem pretty cut and dry in terms of what people
- 47:43Speaker 2: are gonna do.
- 47:44Speaker 3: They're gonna play the Brewers and then they're gonna play
- 47:46Speaker 3: either the value the value Astros are the value Mariners, right,
- 47:51Speaker 3: So you're looking up when you're building lineups, you're looking
- 47:54Speaker 3: to compete against those kinds of roster constructions. And I
- 47:57Speaker 3: think some of these guys on both sides that that
- 48:00Speaker 3: Giants Nationals game can do it for you. Last game
- 48:04Speaker 3: of the slate. We are in Vegas here. Excuse me
- 48:07Speaker 3: for saying West Sacramento. Obviously in earlier there's not a
- 48:12Speaker 3: lot of data on this ballpark. But based on what
- 48:15Speaker 3: you saw yesterday and tonight the weather alone in Vegas,
- 48:20Speaker 3: I mean it's extremely hot.
- 48:22Speaker 2: There's tons of wind blown out.
- 48:24Speaker 3: We know in these kind of undeveloped stadiums, right wind
- 48:28Speaker 3: is more affected than others.
- 48:31Speaker 2: Again, not a lot of data.
- 48:33Speaker 3: Vegas would tend to agree hanging eleven implied run total
- 48:36Speaker 3: here I talked about the A's implied run total probably
- 48:39Speaker 3: two two to two and a half runs higher than
- 48:41Speaker 3: what it normally would be if this game was in Milwaukee.
- 48:44Speaker 3: We talked about Kyle Harrison in terms of a pivot
- 48:47Speaker 3: in the top tier that I just I don't see a.
- 48:50Speaker 2: World where he comes in at twenty percent.
- 48:51Speaker 3: I mean, when you actually go to start building teams
- 48:54Speaker 3: and you click Kyle Harrison, it probably feels pretty gross
- 48:58Speaker 3: to do so when you can just go down to
- 49:00Speaker 3: Gavin Williams and Logan web So I don't see this
- 49:03Speaker 3: ownership holding true. I expect him to move and walk
- 49:06Speaker 3: back and those other guys to kind of steam up
- 49:07Speaker 3: when people actually go to start building teams.
- 49:10Speaker 2: Brewers on paper, best stack on the board. Hard to argue,
- 49:15Speaker 2: Springs is the flyball pitcher. The only kurrent argument here
- 49:18Speaker 2: is number one, ownership on the Brewers side. Number two.
- 49:21Speaker 2: This team against lefties is just not the same as
- 49:24Speaker 2: it is against righty's, and they don't hit the ball
- 49:27Speaker 2: in the air. Andrew Vaughan probably one of the best
- 49:29Speaker 2: players in the slate, followed by William Catreras. There is
- 49:33Speaker 2: definitely clear downside here. You look at this team, like
- 49:35Speaker 2: I said, against lefties, they're up there in strikeouts. Their
- 49:40Speaker 2: ops is down the charts, So there's definitely a clear
- 49:43Speaker 2: downside here. It's just a true.
- 49:47Speaker 3: Hard to ignore spot right with the weather on the
- 49:51Speaker 3: other side, though, Matt the A's, I mean, nobody's gonna
- 49:55Speaker 3: play the A's really and they get the exact same environment. Yeah,
- 50:00Speaker 3: Kyle Harrison's really good, but we don't know how good
- 50:03Speaker 3: he's going to be in this kind of environment, in
- 50:05Speaker 3: this kind of ballpark. Kobe Thomas, I mean lang Lear's
- 50:10Speaker 3: Nick Kurtz, he's been really good. Brent Rooker at four
- 50:12Speaker 3: K for Brent Rooker in the stadium against Lefty. I
- 50:15Speaker 3: think that's interesting. I think the A's are getting slept on,
- 50:19Speaker 3: and I think they're pretty damn interesting here tonight as well.
- 50:22Speaker 3: What do you see in this one to run us
- 50:23Speaker 3: out the most important game of the slate.
- 50:27Speaker 4: Yeah, so weirdly enough, I think you're you're actually higher
- 50:31Speaker 4: on Harrison and the A's than me. I get both
- 50:34Speaker 4: of them, though, Like there are just a lot of
- 50:36Speaker 4: good spots on this slate. You can't play everyone. Harrison
- 50:39Speaker 4: has been so good, so of course I couldn't argue
- 50:42Speaker 4: for wanting to play him because he's been the best
- 50:47Speaker 4: picture on almost every slate he's been on. He's just
- 50:49Speaker 4: been phenomenal and outside of the ballpark not an awful spot. Certainly,
- 50:54Speaker 4: we don't hate using pictures against the A's. He's expensive, though,
- 50:58Speaker 4: so that's my hesitation. When you do have, you know,
- 51:03Speaker 4: not a matchup where the A's certainly have power upside,
- 51:06Speaker 4: and then you put this ballpark into consideration, makes me
- 51:09Speaker 4: personally not love Harrison, but I get your point about
- 51:12Speaker 4: ownership the A's themselves against him. I'm struggling here because
- 51:18Speaker 4: I feel like I have respect. I don't want to
- 51:20Speaker 4: use Harrison here. But I respect him enough to not
- 51:23Speaker 4: want to stack against him. That said, you mentioned that
- 51:26Speaker 4: high total for the A's here the ballpark, This does
- 51:30Speaker 4: seem like a spot where if they get to him,
- 51:34Speaker 4: they do so with home runs, and that's all you
- 51:36Speaker 4: can ask for from a stack, So I get it
- 51:38Speaker 4: from that perspective. I don't have much to add on
- 51:41Speaker 4: the Brewers. They're the top stack on paper, but I
- 51:44Speaker 4: think there's enough holes to poke in them that I'm
- 51:46Speaker 4: not sure I want to play them into ownership. That said,
- 51:50Speaker 4: they are the best stack on paper with the highest upside.
- 51:53Speaker 4: The thing we usually don't love about the Brewers so
- 51:55Speaker 4: they don't hit a ton of home runs, but you
- 51:58Speaker 4: put them in this ballpark, in this matchup up like
- 52:01Speaker 4: the home runs might come. So definitely a fade at
- 52:03Speaker 4: your own risk type of spot. Even if they don't
- 52:05Speaker 4: get a lot of home runs, they run. They should
- 52:08Speaker 4: score runs tonight. So even as MANI stacks, they look good.
- 52:12Speaker 4: Just a matter of if you want to play them
- 52:14Speaker 4: into ownership.
- 52:16Speaker 3: Yeah, well, Jackson Urio is probably my favorite bat of
- 52:20Speaker 3: all of them. Andre Vaughan probably two, then Contreras, Thn Sanchez.
- 52:24Speaker 3: It does suck to uh have to pick between the two.
- 52:28Speaker 3: Sanchez is probably the better, the better option just when
- 52:32Speaker 3: you add in the salary. But yeah, those are kind
- 52:35Speaker 3: of the main four guys you're looking at, and then
- 52:36Speaker 3: it's just whoever, whoever fits your bill. Joey Ortiz against Lefty.
- 52:40Speaker 3: I always mentioned him. He's not a good bat by
- 52:42Speaker 3: any means, but he's twenty nine hundred. He's gonna be
- 52:44Speaker 3: probably one of the lower owned Brewers just because he's
- 52:46Speaker 3: hitting probably eighth or ninth in this lineup. But yeah,
- 52:50Speaker 3: Brewers on paper, best stack on the board a's power.
- 52:53Speaker 3: It's not that I'm gonna go in full stack the
- 52:55Speaker 3: a's against Kyle Harrison because you probably if this game
- 52:59Speaker 3: is somewhat close as well, you're probably gonna see a
- 53:01Speaker 3: guy like Aaron Ashby come out of the bullpen who's
- 53:04Speaker 3: been just absolutely nails all year, which does hurt.
- 53:07Speaker 2: But ling Leers, Brett Rooker, Kurtz, even Lefty, Lefty.
- 53:11Speaker 3: I mean, these guys are gonna be sub ten percent
- 53:14Speaker 3: owned with tons of power in a ballpark where he
- 53:17Speaker 3: got wind blown out and it's the cracker Jack Stadium, right,
- 53:20Speaker 3: so especially Brett Rooker, I mean four K for Brett Rooker. Yeah,
- 53:24Speaker 3: he probably strikes out three times, but his fourth fourth
- 53:27Speaker 3: time he probably hits a home run, right, So I
- 53:29Speaker 3: do like that. And then you got a cheap guy
- 53:32Speaker 3: in Henry Bolt as well that it's had.
- 53:36Speaker 2: All the talent in the world hasn't really translated this
- 53:39Speaker 2: yet at the big lee level, but it's in there somewhere.
- 53:42Speaker 2: And he's thirty three hundred dollars, So don't hate it.
- 53:46Speaker 3: Matt end of the show, your top two pitchers, your
- 53:50Speaker 3: top three stacks, and then a home run call for
- 53:52Speaker 3: the people to run south.
- 53:54Speaker 4: So one guy I forgot to talk about. We talked
- 53:56Speaker 4: about the Angels. Stack guy that got called up today's
- 53:59Speaker 4: having a really really good year in the minor league's
- 54:02Speaker 4: benefiting from playing in the PCL. I'm gonna say him
- 54:05Speaker 4: as my as my bomb call.
- 54:06Speaker 1: Though.
- 54:06Speaker 4: Give me Denzer Guzman home run two K shortstop tonight
- 54:11Speaker 4: on DK. Don't forget about him, and yeah, did you
- 54:15Speaker 4: want Stacks and stuff or just my home run call?
- 54:18Speaker 2: Yeah, Stacks, Stacks and then.
- 54:21Speaker 4: Guzman. I couldn't contain myself, so yeah, Stas Brewers won,
- 54:26Speaker 4: But that's kind of obvious. So after that we'll go man.
- 54:31Speaker 4: I like Seattle talked about them earlier. Uh, a bunch
- 54:37Speaker 4: of good stacks tonight. Uh, you know, I'll say Seattle,
- 54:40Speaker 4: and then I'll say the Washington San fran game. Man,
- 54:43Speaker 4: I'm kind of stuck on that. We just talked about it.
- 54:45Speaker 4: I like both sides of that game.
- 54:47Speaker 2: Yeah, I like that. I'm gonna go my favorite pitching.
- 54:51Speaker 3: I'm gonna go Gavin Williams, and then I'm gonna go
- 54:56Speaker 3: down to my guy Andrew Rabbit down low.
- 54:59Speaker 2: So I like that.
- 55:00Speaker 3: I like Abbott quite a bit against those padres in
- 55:03Speaker 3: that ballpark there for me, top stack Brewers obviously, but
- 55:07Speaker 3: leaving the Brewers out, I will say the Angels, I
- 55:10Speaker 3: will say the Mariners, and.
- 55:13Speaker 2: I will say the Guardians.
- 55:15Speaker 3: Some of those lefty value power bats guys like Jay
- 55:18Speaker 3: Ram and Zarto de Lauter Bizana. Those guys have been
- 55:21Speaker 3: good and nobody's gonna click their name.
- 55:23Speaker 2: So I like that.
- 55:24Speaker 3: Then my home run call, I'm going to Seattle. I'm
- 55:26Speaker 3: going to the sixth hole, dominant can zone thirty two hundred.
- 55:31Speaker 3: I love him against any righty, especially already in Trey Gibson,
- 55:34Speaker 3: who I think is trash. And then yeah, you got
- 55:38Speaker 3: a good bullpen, but it's still dominant can zone, and
- 55:41Speaker 3: I like his power and his price is nice. So
- 55:43Speaker 3: that's gonna do it for this WLB show here. Appreciate
- 55:47Speaker 3: everyone tuning in and hit that like button. Hit the
- 55:48Speaker 3: subscribe button. Helps us out a ton. Matt's gonna get
- 55:50Speaker 3: his cores up. The Slate Slate station, like I already
- 55:53Speaker 3: talked about, is already live. You can filter in the
- 55:56Speaker 3: Stone updates as lineups come out. We have already have
- 56:00Speaker 3: the lineups outside of the late window there, which is
- 56:02Speaker 3: obviously where many people's teams are going to be anchored.
- 56:06Speaker 3: I do want to also make a final note depending
- 56:09Speaker 3: on how your teams look in those early games, right,
- 56:12Speaker 3: if you played Christopher Sanchez, he's not doing it. You
- 56:14Speaker 3: played Gavin Williams, he's not really going Connelly early, Emerson Hancock.
- 56:19Speaker 3: If you played some of those guys in your teams
- 56:21Speaker 3: aren't sitting pretty. You have plenty of these four games, right,
- 56:25Speaker 3: Maybe you pivot more to that Nationals in Giants game
- 56:28Speaker 3: instead of that Brewers. That that Brewer stack, right, so
- 56:32Speaker 3: do pay attention there, or you pivot off the Astros
- 56:34Speaker 3: if your team isn't looking great and you go to
- 56:37Speaker 3: the Angels side, or you play some of those reds
- 56:39Speaker 3: bats that we talked about, right, because you do have
- 56:42Speaker 3: four games to work with in the late window, right
- 56:44Speaker 3: with it being kind of a four to four split.
- 56:47Speaker 3: Do pay attention, right, this is a good kind of
- 56:49Speaker 3: late swap slate here based on where you're sitting in tournament.
- 56:52Speaker 3: So don't forget about the late swap here based on
- 56:56Speaker 3: your your your position right, have the best chance to
- 56:59Speaker 3: the top, and that includes playing the ownership game when
- 57:02Speaker 3: you already have pieces of the puzzle in front of
- 57:05Speaker 3: you based on what the first four games look like.
- 57:09Speaker 2: So I didn't want to call that out. Matt. Appreciate
- 57:11Speaker 2: you tuning in here.
- 57:12Speaker 3: Always fun breaking baseball down eight games, We'll be back,
- 57:16Speaker 3: or I'll be back tomorrow with Gee rising to break
- 57:18Speaker 3: down probably the ten or twelve games slate whatever it
- 57:20Speaker 3: is tomorrow, But good luck tonight in those contexts, hope
- 57:24Speaker 3: to see those ship nation logos at the top.
- 57:25Speaker 2: We're out here, peace,
