All systems going on clear lifting. What is going on? Ship at Nation
0:37
YouTube station, We are back with a birthday edition of the MLB Quick Hit
0:43
Video. I got my guy Gee Rising in here with me. You're probably
0:47
thinking, what the hell am I doing? I got Ham in here in
0:50
that title. We did a little flipper rood for today and Fridays. You'll
0:53
get title on Friday with nids or wrapping up the PGA show. I don't
0:59
know if you listen to any of that Gee Rising, but we're gonna have
1:00
some stragglers, some some diehards if you will coming over here after that PGA
1:06
show with all the giveaways that they had over there. But I'll pass over
1:10
to you before we get into it. How's your Wednesday going? How are
1:11
your safety meetings going? Your cards looking good back there in the background.
1:15
Yeah, man, doing good, Michigan. We finally turned the corner.
1:19
It's been nice and warm around here. Can't can't complain at all. But
1:23
yeah, you know, do a little bit of the day job. Had
1:26
to, you know, get some robots and get all them up and running.
1:30
My company repairs robots and stuff like that. So it's getting a call
1:34
this morning, but ass early, Hey, my shit's down, you know,
1:36
but whatever. I woke up thinking, man, it's Shipping Nation's birthday.
1:40
It was a lot of fun, you know here in this first year
1:42
here at Shipping I know, you know, we got to all meet up
1:45
in Arizona. We had a good time with you know, with everybody,
1:48
and you know, me being the oldest guy in the group, you know,
1:51
had had a lot of fun. But man, that golf when we
1:53
went to that golfing, Man, I think we walked like thirty two thousand
1:56
steps that I might. My knees and feet are still telling me, you
2:00
asshole, don't do that again. Ham that was not not too nice on
2:04
the back and the legs and all that shit. But I can walk it
2:07
one day. I could only take it one day of that. It was
2:09
too much, made too hot, too many people, too much walking around,
2:13
too many crowds. And hey, I'm right there behind you in the
2:15
age department. We got the Elder Statesman, if you will on this show
2:19
today. Hey, we got more knowledge. Hey, those the Naids the
2:22
title and uh and Hebrew. Those guys can party into the wee hours.
2:24
Well you can party with the best of them. Am I kidding? But
2:28
I got to get to bed early and get get wake up. Yeah,
2:31
I mean, hey, doing like back to back days like that. I
2:35
mean, I don't care who you are, it gets it gets to be
2:37
tough. But man, I'll tell you what though, Ship it's birthday.
2:40
Like, I still can't get over It's been one year. I can't.
2:44
It just seems like it went so fast. I just can't get over it.
2:46
But a lot of fun being around everybody. We got the golf come
2:51
up this week, you know, we got you know, we been rolling
2:53
with some baseball did pretty decent yesterday. Man, we were just talking before
2:57
the show started. Cease was right there and getting that tenth k you know,
3:01
had eight sitting there, you know, and Sale come out, you
3:06
know, zinging it yesterday. Ham was like the first time I was really
3:08
intimidated by the pitching, you know, and not to be left, you
3:12
know, left out of the the good pitching yesterday because I just thought it
3:15
could beat us. It ended up, you know, Sale worked out pretty
3:17
well, but Seas didn't fare too well. But hey, it seems like
3:22
the chalk pitchers have been getting beat up this year. But man, we'll
3:24
get back at it here. Today we got what seven games got to talk
3:28
about. Looks like we got a little bit of weather in one of the
3:30
games. From what I'm understanding, looks like that Yankees Minnesota game. Yeah,
3:36
that's it with yellow orange. You got some Yeah, you got some
3:38
pictures in there that you may want to play, and obviously the Yankees' bats.
3:43
But yeah, let's uh yeah, I got got Brendon here, BJ
3:46
and I did the show on Monday. Hey, he was all over the
3:49
Guardians, gee, rows, and I was all over Michael Rinsey because they
3:51
tried out seven left. He's got that no no going into sixth. But
3:54
hey, you still need to the Guardians because they went off. They win
3:58
him in the seventh and eighth and ninth and they took in and out.
4:00
So Bjay, we both I'll call that a drawl man. You got there,
4:02
I got there. It was a win for all good time. Hey,
4:06
listen, gee Rosen, I thought about this. I was like,
4:09
I may be hosting the show today. I was listening to you guys yesterday,
4:12
and I could feel it in your voice. You're disappointed. You don't
4:14
ever get to say hello to the people in chat. So today it's all
4:17
you go ahead and give a shout out to everybody in the chat so far.
4:21
I don't like to steal everybody's shtick. You know, that's titles thing.
4:25
He likes to say hi to everybody, gets everybody fired up. It's
4:28
good. But hey, we got Greg here already. Man, he was
4:30
in here early twelve fifty five. What the that was? What was I
4:33
don't want the hell that was? That was yesterday or something. I don't
4:36
even know. But Brent Jones, Connor Sean, you told me cal control,
4:42
did you. Hey, that's baseball, man, That's what I like
4:44
about baseball. It's it's not easy to predict. It's a lot of Yeah,
4:47
it's tough, but you know what, I look at numbers. I
4:49
just look at what the odds are. But that's the thing with baseball.
4:53
You got a gut feeling, you got a gut about somebody, you go
4:56
for it. Man, Like I'm just trying to let you know what I
4:59
think. You know the percentages are, and uh, you know what what
5:02
the odds are and what your likelihood. I mean, if you were to
5:04
play that one hundred times, it may now fare all that well to you
5:08
in the majority of the times, but hey, it worked out. Can't
5:10
complain but let's uh, let's dive in a little bit today. I think
5:13
we got we got some day baseball. We're sweating now too. I don't
5:15
know if you ended up, yeah, getting anything in there this afternoon.
5:18
Him, No, I saw your I read your slate playing, but I
5:21
didn't get there. And our guys Sean V is always in there giving us
5:26
the narratives. Hey, hey, Sean V. The birthday narratives. Man,
5:29
Nico Horner, I thought about you too. All I do is thinking
5:30
about you guys. Nico Horner went over against my guy Ranaldo Lopez. Yeah,
5:35
of course the Brewers go for ten today. I was all over them.
5:39
Yesterday they did nothing. But yeah, day basis you got any sweats
5:42
going on right now? I'm looking at a little bit. You know,
5:47
some of the games haven't gone off yet, the later games. So all
5:50
those people with the early you know, sitting there thinking they're sitting pretty.
5:55
Brewers did throw up ten spot looks like what contraras hit a homer whatever else.
6:00
Yeah, I like the Brewers yesterday too, Brewers and Reds. I
6:03
was on yesterday with I had sale over on DK and I ended up going
6:09
with cease just because I had the salary. There was some cheap bats you
6:13
got to use. I actually threw in Dylan Carlson and that the nine hitter
6:16
there for the Reds that actually put up a bagel yesterday was two cheap bats.
6:20
Help you get those expensive pictures yesterday. But yeah, excited to break
6:26
this down with him. Haven't done a show. I don't know if we've
6:27
done a show yet this year together. Now you know what we did opening
6:30
day and then that was it. Yeah, that's fair, that's fair.
6:32
Separate ways, But Trevor Brian does not want to stick. He wants us
6:35
to get into it. But I got one marketing piece to throw up.
6:39
If you haven't heard, today is our birthday. We're turning one Hoop Tambo,
6:44
the whole crew. They had a vision three hundred and sixty five days
6:46
ago. And if you're not a member yet, we'd love to have you
6:49
over at ship at Nation into the promo code B Day fifteen. We'll give
6:54
you fifteen percent off for the entirety that you're here with us. And we've
6:58
been rocking and rolling since we launched with two sports Gee roles. And I
7:00
know you remember you were here from the beginning. It was MMA I'm sorry.
7:04
It was baseball and it was I believe it was MMA or golf,
7:09
and we had an MMA, we had an NFL, obviously NBA. This
7:12
season with our guy Hebrew, we're rocking and rolling out. So head on
7:15
over best discord in the business by far. You got a lot of valuable
7:18
members in there talking it up. But this is a seven game slate.
7:21
Shouldn't take us that long. We'll do what we always do, or what
7:25
I always do, unless you want to change it up. We'll talk DK
7:28
pitching. You mentioned the weather, but let's go. Let's go. Let's
7:31
go ninety eight hundred all the way down to eight K. I'll have you
7:36
note too. I'm assuming you've looked at FanDuel pricing because I know that you
7:41
play over there. It's gonna be a little bit different game. The price
7:44
is just it's just they got Tan or Howick on fando all the way up
7:46
to eleven K, which is insane to me. They got Charlie Morton,
7:49
the third highest price pitcher over there, I'm sorry, the second highest price
7:54
pitcher. They got Pablo Lopez the third highest price. So talk to me
7:58
a little bit about I know we normally DK, but if you want to
8:01
delve into Fando as well, talk to me about this, this upper tier
8:05
on DK ninety eight hundred all the way down to eight k. Yeah,
8:09
you're right. The pitching is when I looked at the two sites, I
8:11
you know, I was like, WHOA, FanDuel actually is priced up a
8:15
little bit today. But just talking with some DK as you mentioned, we'll
8:18
start up at the top here. You know, we got Pablo Lopez,
8:22
got the Yankees got a little bit of weather scare. I think that's mostly
8:24
from the toward the end of the game from what I'm seeing there. But
8:30
I mean you're looking at the guy like Pablo Lopez, He's got pretty much,
8:33
i'd say, probably the best skill set on the slate as far as
8:37
strikeouts go. I mean, you're looking at a guy with thirty four percent
8:41
strikeout percentage over there to lefties, and I think he's at twenty eight.
8:46
I think it was Righty's. I think I was reading thirty one all together,
8:50
actually at thirty five to Righty's twenty eight to lefties. So you know,
8:54
Yankees do have some strikeouts in that lineup. Don't mind that at all.
9:00
Just a little concerned about the weather ninety eight hundred really isn't bad for
9:03
a guy with that say, but I do think there's a few arms here
9:05
we could look at. You got Tanner Hawk here against Tampa Bay. I
9:09
think Hawke is, you know, obviously he's the highest priced pitcher up there
9:13
over on FanDuel. He'said seven of eight quality starts. I think that's why
9:16
FanDuel's got him up so high, because you know, we are chasing that
9:20
quality start over there on fanduels. So I think Hawk is definitely interesting.
9:24
But man, eleven K that's that seems to be a little bit much for
9:28
him, you know, like sce and is Tanner Hawk, you know,
9:31
Spencer Strider is what I'm thinking, and then you got you got Valdez against
9:37
Oakland. I think he's gonna especially on DK, I think he'll be probably
9:41
the chalkiest pitcher just because of the matchup there with Oakland. So I do
9:46
think he's an eighty eight hundred over there on DK. Stroman, man,
9:50
I'm not interested in Stroman. I just don't think he has too much upside.
9:52
I'm not really interested in at teching the met and the Twins. I'm
9:56
sorry, just not going there. Charlie Morton, he's just past his prime.
10:01
Decent pitcher, just not really for me in DFS here today. Logan
10:05
Webb, no, thank you. I'm not going to be chasing the Dodgers.
10:07
Not going there. Lance Lynn, not gonna do that either now.
10:11
TODs Bradley I think is interesting against Boston. I mean, you just got
10:13
the top half of that lineup that's really got anything that we need to be
10:18
concerned about. But Bradley coming off the ile last start, ended up first
10:22
start back, ended up having ninety some pitches. I remember ninety three first
10:26
doubting, Yeah, ninety three pitches. So that's definitely and play you ended
10:31
up taking a loss, still got twenty two points, so you know,
10:33
the for the salary we're looking at ak I think he's definitely probably standing out
10:37
as one of the better value here place today. We really don't have a
10:41
pitcher that I'm looking at that even, you know, really in the low
10:45
end, you know, like I I don't know, I can't I don't
10:46
know, I can't play Canning. I'm just not going there. I've seen
10:50
some love for Griffin Canning over out there in the world, and I just
10:56
I'm not going there. Saint Louis does suck balls, but uh, you
11:00
know, I just I can't do it. But for me, really,
11:03
I mean you could look at John Gray against Cleveland. I just Cleveland just
11:07
doesn't have enough strikeouts in that lineup for me. So I'm not really looking
11:11
at looking at John Gray here today either. So for me, I think
11:13
it's pretty simple. I think it's either TODs, Bradley, Valdez, Hawk
11:16
or Lopez. I think those are the guys you need to look at here
11:20
today. And uh really for me, I mean, if you wanted to
11:24
risk it with somebody like Canning, you could just cause Saint Louis sucks.
11:28
But uh, I think there's only four guys that I'm really even interested in
11:31
playing here today. Yeah, no great breakdown there. I mean, uh,
11:35
the thing with TOAs your boy TODs Bradley ninety pitches, ninety plus pitches,
11:37
we like that, Uh, he couldn't miss right handed bats. I'm
11:41
out on TODs Bradley. I think that that lineup came out on New Tyler
11:46
O'Neil. I like Tyler O'Neil. We'll get into bats, but I'm out
11:48
on Bradley. I'm with you though. These pitchers up here. I mean,
11:50
you're not gonna take logan web against the Dodgers. For me, it's
11:54
it's it's it's three pictures, it's Lopez, it's how it's Morton. Lopez
11:58
does Tim Mile and Mile prior win blowing in. But you said there's any
12:03
chance that it gets rained out. You obviously never want to play a starting
12:05
pitcher if it's gonna be a short game or anything like that. The Yankees
12:09
are, you know, have the most home runs versus Righty's in the season.
12:13
Yeah, so I might be down on him. So how against the
12:16
Rays? Rays aren't any good, especially getting right handed picture and it's tough
12:20
to pay eleven k. That's a big boy price tag over there. Don't
12:24
mind ninety one hundred. I'm actually out on Framber Valdez. Uh, don't
12:28
mind. Don't mind the the A's bats a little bit. So it's Lopez.
12:31
How for me Morton, I don't think this Cups team is very good.
12:33
I know they've been I guess quote unquote hot recently, but I think
12:37
Morton's coming back from the dead gee rise and he had a good couple get
12:41
last games against the Guardians and then the Mets. I believe, so I
12:43
don't mind him against the Cubs. What about down here eight k and below,
12:50
you know, seventy seven hundred all the way down to fifty two hundred,
12:52
Ryan yarbro anybody in there. I know you mentioned Canning Gray a little
12:56
bit, so you kind of already did all this. But what about Hobby
12:58
Aerosidus? He was that a decent season. Brave's kind of got off track
13:03
on track last night with seven runs. Matt Olsen broke the slate. Any
13:07
Carlos Grasco love, anybody else down there that you want to talk about?
13:11
Yeah, I mean, no Carlos Carrasco love for me. You know,
13:16
just looking at Canning, he's the only he's only given up to earn runs
13:18
in his last eleven innings. You know, he just not really that big
13:22
of a strikeout guy. He's got eight strikeouts in his last eleven innings.
13:26
I mean, he's just I mean, I think to me, it's just
13:30
more of a cheap safe play if you wanted to go there. I mean
13:33
kind of looking at the pitching today, I'm not as fearful of the pitching
13:37
it nearly even close as I was yesterday of losing in the pitching. So
13:41
yeah, I mean, if you wanted to go down there, I got
13:43
you know, i'd be you know, i'd be open to that. I
13:46
don't necessarily can't argue with you, you know, chasing after Saint Louis.
13:52
They suck, so I couldn't do that at all. But I mean,
13:56
for me, Lopez hal Valdez, you know you mentioned Wharton. You know,
14:01
I just there really isn't too much upside here, I think on this
14:05
slate here, you know, in Lopez, like I said, from what
14:09
they're saying now, I know, it's only three forty five here Eastern time.
14:11
We still got another three hours to go. But that game they're saying,
14:15
could be a little bit of showers and at the beginning and at the
14:16
end of the game, there's some cells that are supposed to pop up.
14:18
So definitely gonna have to keep our eye on that. But uh, you
14:22
know, this may be a slate, you know, now thinking about it,
14:26
Ham, you know, maybe a guy like Canning is in play a
14:28
little bit more than I mean, just thinking about it first, you're like,
14:31
man, that's gross like Canning. I don't want to play Griffin Canning.
14:35
But you know what, I don't really think any of these pitchers.
14:39
And I think it is going to be pretty condensed today. I think it's
14:41
only gonna be four or five guys that are really going to garner the ownership.
14:45
I think Valdez is going to be the most popular guy in DK today.
14:48
I think that will probably hold true, and I think Lopez will probably
14:52
come in at second. But you know, I you know, if you
14:56
don't feel Lopez and Valdez really can beat you and put up a thirty spot,
15:00
I you know, like then might as well pay down and let's go
15:03
for some bats. But the thing really is ham I mean, it hasn't
15:05
been worth chasing some of these bats, you know, like we're seeing we're
15:09
not seeing some of these you know, these softball games we've been used to
15:13
seeing in prior years. But yeah, I more I think about it,
15:16
I think pitching is kind of condensed. But for me, the only guys
15:20
on the bottom, you know, I just I'm not chasing after the Indians
15:24
with their you know, they just don't strike out. I'm just not interested.
15:28
Really don't Yarborough. Yarborough's not in play for me, just doesn't go
15:31
deep enough. I mean, fifty five hundred for Canning. Sure, maybe
15:35
on DK, but I sure the hell I'm playing him on fan duel.
15:37
No on DK. I could see him sneaking in as an SP two if
15:41
you wanted to go there. And you know, I feel good about it
15:43
a little bit more so, like I said, because I'm just not fearful
15:46
of getting, you know, getting beat by two guys throwing up twenty five
15:48
points. Yeah, you talk about Valdez, It's gonna be tough for Valdez
15:52
to get there. I mean, he just doesn't strike anybody out about eighteen
15:56
percent on the right handed side of me. He's a string ground ball pitchure,
15:58
which you'll obviously you'll love to see. But you know, for him
16:02
to beat it's gonna have to be eight or nine innings, no runs,
16:04
you know, four or five k's in a win because he just doesn't strike
16:08
people out. And this this A's team has been pretty good against left tenant
16:11
pitching over the last fourteen days. So give it. So, I'm gonna
16:15
put you on the spot top three pitchers of the slate. It's gonna be
16:19
condensed. I think ownership. You'll got fourteen to choose from, so ownership,
16:23
it's gonna be condenced, and you already said there's gonna be numerous that
16:26
I'm just gonna be XD out of everybody's player pool. Give me your top
16:30
three that you're gonna be playing tonight. Well, I'm gonna go Lopez one,
16:33
I will go how two, and then I'm gonna say Bradley three.
16:40
I think Bradley might even sneak up there in my top two. Actually,
16:45
you know, as Sean mentioned, Bradley was really good in his rehab starts
16:52
as well. So he had what fifteen strikeouts and eleven innings down there in
16:56
triple Am from what I saw, so, you know, definitely something to
17:00
keep in mind. I think Bradley at a K. You know, I'm
17:03
gonna move Bradley to two. Let's call Lopez one, Bradley two, and
17:07
then we'll go We'll go Halp three. So I think Bradley today is my
17:11
favorite guy. You could go Bradley and Griffin Canning. I think you could
17:15
get pretty much any batch you want. Well, the Red Sox did you
17:18
a lot of favors because they rolled out five left handed bats against Bradley didn't
17:22
miss any rioties last time and missed a ton of lefties since the or of
17:25
the Red Sox two. They throw five lefties out there. Don't agree with
17:27
that managerial style, but hey, what do I know about that? With
17:32
Bradley facing five lefties, I definitely think he's employee. I'm gonna go Halk
17:34
one for me, Morton two. Then I would say Lopez would be three.
17:38
I do like Lopez a little bit better than than Bradley. Let's move
17:42
in to the games. Now, we'll go game by game. We'll start
17:48
with that Tampa and Boston game. Both teams have a round a four and
17:51
a half imploied run total, so they must think they're gonna score some runs
17:55
in this game. You would think with two good pitchers, you would think
17:57
it's gonna be lower scoring than that. Any interest in any of these bats,
18:03
Is it all gonna be pitching for you? You know? I mean,
18:07
I mean, we got a seven games slate and you're looking at all
18:10
the games. As you mentioned these over unders. We got two eights,
18:14
four eight and a half's, and a nine, so we literally the whole
18:17
slate is within a run according to Vegas, so kind of a pretty balanced
18:21
out slate. So there are probably gonna be some leverage spots we're gonna be
18:25
able to look at and talk about here as we go forward. But you
18:29
know, this Tampa Bay Boston. You know, you could definitely look at
18:33
some Boston Bats if you want it. I'm just not particularly gonna go after
18:37
Bradley. As you mentioned, they're gonna have a bunch of lefties in there.
18:40
Bradley thirty three percent k rate to lefties, twenty six percent k rate
18:45
here to righty's. So you know, I I just can't go there.
18:48
Devers just isn't doing it enough for me. I just don't like the top
18:52
part of this lineup, this Tampa lineup, I'm not really interested in either
18:56
going after how I mean, this bottom of this lineup is just garbage.
18:59
I think there's better spots, But I do think that Boston's in a little
19:04
better spot if you want to use some one off guys, I think that
19:08
the Tampa guys wouldn't be bad one offs because I think hole Co will be
19:11
pretty popular. I can't see anybody really stands out for me. But if
19:15
you want to look for leverage, I think there's only going to be a
19:18
handful of pitchers today that are going to be owned. So if you wanted
19:21
to use any one offs against them. I think that would be a preferred
19:23
route. Yeah, I'm with you. There be one off for me only
19:26
on Tampa, only the righties, and then on the Boston side's Tyler O'Neil
19:30
for me. I like Tyler o'nill a lot as a one off against Todje
19:36
Bradley. I think he struggles more versus Roddy than he does left. He's
19:37
give me some Taler O'Neill in this game tonight. Moving on to the next
19:41
game, We're going Cubs, We're going Braids. We're going old school g
19:45
Rodzi. When I would come home from school back in the day, we
19:48
only had WGN A TVs. Man and these were the only two games on
19:51
in town. You probably remember some of those days. Oh yeah, so
19:53
all the Cubs games in the day because they didn't have lights and you got
19:56
to watch the Braves at night. But any anybody in this game. We
20:00
got Javier Asadez, I mentioned Charlie Morton, any Stacks, any one offs
20:03
who you like in this one. Yeah, I mean the Braves are definitely
20:07
gonna be expensive, definitely something you you could look at. Jumped out yesterday
20:11
with seven runs, so don't mind that, but you know, I mean
20:17
I think here, I think I'd be more interested in like a mini stack.
20:19
I like the lefties, I like Olsen, I like Albe's. You
20:22
know, a Zuni obviously has been hitting well. I don't know if I'm
20:26
gonna get up to pay for Acunya. But you know, the Braves Bats
20:30
are definitely interesting. I mean, we've been talking about them all season.
20:33
Definitely one of the best offenses around, you know, the Chicago Bats.
20:37
I'm not really sure I'm want to tackle Charlie Morton here, but if you
20:41
wanted to go that route, he's got a very low key rate here to
20:45
Righty's. I mean, if you want to look at somebody like Suzuki,
20:48
maybe morele Horner or somebody like that, you could do that. But I'm
20:52
just not interested in attacking him. I think the Cubs would be more left
20:55
for if you wanted to go one offs. And I see you in there,
20:57
Michael w you want me to tell you what team can't hit out of
21:00
a paper bag? We might get to that. But there's this is actually
21:03
a pretty decent slave. There isn't any games down to seven, but you're
21:07
right, it seems like every time I say that, especially, it's just
21:08
been the Indians really, but they're still not hitting homers. They might put
21:11
up a bunch of runs. It's only Josh Naylor in Jose Ramirez that are
21:17
hitting homers for him. Bu Naylor hit one yesterday. But still, I
21:21
mean, it's just at the end of the year, I guarantee you they'll
21:22
be bottom five in the MLB and homers. So yeah, they're I mean
21:26
they're yeah. I hate it's impossible to stack them. I mean, like
21:30
you we saw earlier me bj said Lorenzo had a no no going into the
21:34
six. They round up with seven. You know, they just don't any
21:37
home runs. And against right handed pitching they're very bad. But enough about
21:40
that. We're talking braves. We're talking cups here. Sean likes Sean likes
21:45
where to Goes. She likes Olsen as a one up I don't hate that
21:48
actually, like Ozzie Alby's as a righty or sorry, as a one off
21:52
lefty against Asad. Asada has been absolutely dynamite against right handed hitters all year.
21:57
I think that changes today, you Rosin, I'll tay why. Asade
22:00
has been very good extreme groundball pitcher almost at fifty percent. He just doesn't
22:04
miss any bad. So we know the Braves team struggles with high fastball,
22:08
high strikeout pitchers, which aside is not striking out about twenty percent of right
22:14
handed hitters. I think the Braves can get to him. Acunion has been
22:15
struggling all season long. Marcelo Zuna is even higher price than he is,
22:21
which is crazy to say, but I think the Braves get to him today.
22:25
I don't mind the many. I haven't seen that lineup if it's out
22:27
yet, but I like to zoom in the third, the three hole.
22:30
Yeah, you got his Acuna Albi's a Zuna Olsen. That first four right
22:33
there, that's pretty dynamite. Don't mind that at all. And then no
22:37
Cubbies for me. I think Charlie Morton is a resurgence of Charlie Morton,
22:42
and I think he gets it done today. Moving on to the next game.
22:47
Let's talk about this game as it does play. I know we got
22:49
some rain or some weather up there. Let's tart go up these Yankees.
22:52
Any love for Aaron Judge and crew or anybody on this Minnesota team. I
22:57
have some Minnesota stacks. Last night and I was counting my money. After
23:00
the third pitch of the game, I had a home run Ryan Jeffers.
23:03
I was cruising. I knew Carlos Rodon was gonna get lit up, and
23:07
man I checked the app again, they still had one run in the ninth
23:10
inning, and I was like, oh, hell no, they don't went
23:11
all my money. So any love for those Twins. We know Stroman has
23:15
been struggling this year, he's giving up a lot more power to lefties.
23:18
But who you got in this game? Yeah, I think you know.
23:22
I just I'm not gonna go after Stroman. He's just such a high groundballing
23:26
I'm just not really interested there. I think there's just a couple other spots
23:30
I'd rather attack here today. But yeah, you mentioned the Twins. I
23:34
actually had Jeffers in a few as a one off, very expensive catcher yesterday,
23:38
and as you mentioned, hits that home run. I was kind of
23:41
in the same boat, thinking, hell, yeah, this is always nice
23:44
when you're looking at your app and you got like a first home run,
23:48
like right off the bat, or you know, you get the first home
23:51
run of the night. You know, yeah, always like that. But
23:53
uh, yeah, I'm not really interested in going against Pablo Lopez here at
23:56
all. You know the I think you know you could get some leverage here
24:00
if you wanted to go there with the Yankees. But uh, I mean,
24:03
we're talking about a guy here missing all kinds of bat mid thirty percent,
24:06
thirty seven, thirty six percent here. You got Stanton at a thirty
24:10
five percent k Ray here recently. He's the one that I could see getting
24:14
the sombrero here today and striking out three or four times. But you know,
24:18
lots of power in this Yankee lineup. I mean, if you wanted
24:21
to go there, great. I mean, this game does have and over
24:25
under. Like I said, every game is between eight and nine. Here
24:26
today it's sitting at eight. Actually been bet down from eight and a half
24:30
down to eight. So definitely some love coming in for the pitching side here
24:34
in this game. So yeah, I think I think there's some better spots
24:37
to attack here, Haim. Yeah, I don't. I don't hate it.
24:41
It would it would be I'm not going to stack the Yankees. I
24:44
mean, obviously you don't need me to tell you are a judge is always
24:45
in play. It would be the Lefties for the Twins for me to nine
24:49
and their confirmed lineup is out. Looks like we've got six lefties in the
24:53
lineup. But a strumming is tough because, like you said, he's an
24:56
extreme ground ball pitcher, but he's giving up almost a fourteen percent barrel rate
25:00
to lefties this season, So I don't mind some of those lefties in that
25:03
lineup. We're about halfway through. If you are new, if you haven't
25:07
joined us yet, make sure you hit that like, make sure you hit
25:10
that subscribe. We got up about fifty people watching right now. Even if
25:12
you come in after we're done, make sure you hit that light. We're
25:15
almost up to seven thousand subscribers, so make sure if you're not a subscriber,
25:18
head on over to a shipping nation and subscribe today. Moving on to
25:23
the next game, Gee rods, and we're rocking and rolling. We got
25:26
your favorite team, the Artist's formally known as the Cleveland Indians, still in
25:30
Texas beating up those Rangers, those putrid Texas Rangers offense. They get a
25:36
break tonight, your boy, Cookie Carrasco on the bump. Will the Rangers
25:40
finally break out of the slump tonight? You go into Cleveland? What you
25:44
doing in this one? Yeah? I can't go with Cleveland there, you
25:48
know, Gray EXPI I disrespect them just enough, and I don't think the
25:52
Cleveland lineup is gonna get it done today. A I mean, if you
25:55
want me to William out to say I can't hit their way, I have
25:56
of a fucking paper bag. But you know, so there you go.
26:02
You can stack up your Indians now. But the Texas Rangers I think are
26:06
definitely interesting. One of my top stacks today. Carlos Carrasco is just garbage.
26:10
Strikeout percentages are in the teens both sides of the plate. He does
26:14
have a higher ground balling higher flyball rate to righty's, which I like.
26:18
I think Semyon and Garcia today are excellent plays here today. Definitely like all
26:23
sides of this Texas lineup, and really him there. You know, you
26:26
look at all these lineups from one to nine, there isn't too many that
26:30
you know, you feel comfortable playing eight and nine hitters. Texas definitely has
26:33
a lineup that you can do that. So I think Texas here today is
26:37
one of the stronger plays best, one of the better stacks here today.
26:40
So I think Carlos Carrasco is in a world for hurt today. So give
26:44
me, give me, give me some of these Rangers. Now. The
26:47
only bad thing is Cleveland's got the best dam bullpen in MLB. So you
26:52
know you're gonna want to get your runs early, get after Carrasco. You're
26:55
gonna need to get some crooked numbers and then first four or five innings because
26:59
at bull it's, like I mentioned, tops in MLB don't like generally like
27:03
chasing there. Behay, we got a seven games slate here. I think
27:06
they could get enough to Carrasco. But I do respect that bullpen enough to
27:10
where I won't have the Rangers my top stack, but definitely one of my
27:12
favorites. Yeah, one of the top era's in the bullpen, one of
27:18
the top Sierras in the bullpen. Yeah, if you don't get to him
27:19
early, if it's a close game, yeah, you might as well go
27:22
ahead and shut it down because they got a pretty strong bullpen. Absolutely,
27:26
Yeah, Cookie Carrasco striking out less than nineteen percent from both sides of the
27:30
plate. Simone said in the chat, this is the get right spot for
27:33
the Rangers. If this isn't it, Andrew, I don't know what is.
27:37
You're at home. You got a bad pitcher on the hill. You're
27:38
in a losing streak, so yeah, only way to go up from here.
27:42
And then the Guardians mean John Gray. He does very very well against
27:47
right handed hitters. Misses a ton of bats. Strikeout strikeout percentage is what
27:52
is it? From the right handed side? Twenty six percent. Just doesn't
27:55
strike out the same clip, it missed the same bats. I know the
27:57
k percentage is close, but he just doesn't miss many bats. It's tough
28:03
to play those guardians. I'm not gonna stack him just because they are awful.
28:06
I'm with you. They'll think the dog shit as well, So no
28:07
guardians for me. Definitely love the Rangers. They will be popular tonight head
28:12
into the next game. This is going to be an interesting game where one
28:15
I think we maybe disagree. We got Aaron Brooks heading into Houston making his
28:22
major league debut, taking on this Astros team that you needed on Monday night.
28:27
You hope you faded last night. Maybe outside of Bregman, the A's
28:30
get Framber Valdez. I'll have a little bit of interest in the A's.
28:33
Interested to hear your take. They've been red hot in the last fourteen versus
28:37
lefties. Talk to me about this game. Any A's love, any astros
28:41
love, Yeah, I'm not. I'm not gonna get there on the A's.
28:45
I know you mentioned him a little bit before. I just respect Framber
28:48
enough to leave him be. But I will say the Astros to me today
28:53
are my favorite stack, top stack. We got guy making his MLBDB and
28:59
then look at these numbers here in the last seven days, Man Alex Bregman
29:03
is just absolutely slugging the shit out of its nine to seventeen slugging percentage.
29:08
You got Kyle Tucker up there as well, you got Alvarez, but Man
29:12
Bregman finally turned the corner here and actually been doing something here recently. He's
29:15
definitely in a hot streak. So definitely like that Houston line. It's another
29:19
lineup that I like from one to nine. I think they're my top stack
29:22
here today. So Houston for me, give me all the Houston I can
29:26
get. I like all of them. I like Pana, I like Bregman,
29:30
I think is a good play here today. Tucker obviously al two ve
29:33
So yeah, definitely like me some astros today, I think they are gonna
29:37
be my top stack. Reason being is because I respect that Indian bullpen enough
29:42
to not call the Rangers my top stack. So give me the Astros top
29:47
stack for me to hear today. Yeah, they're gonna be popular as well,
29:49
getting a rookie making his MLB debut as a groundball pitcher. But hey,
29:52
it's a little different level when you're coming up here facing you know,
29:56
some of the best hitters in the game in and in uh or Yourdong Alvarez,
30:03
ed Tucker in now to Ba Brighten. The list goes on and on.
30:04
I'm with you one through nine on the Astros. I don't mind these
30:08
I don't mind these a's. I know we're a little bit different there.
30:11
Give me these righties, you know, Zach Geeloff, if he's in the
30:15
lineup, Ruiz who can steal base his end go yard. I don't mind
30:18
these rities. And from the looks of it, looks like they're gonna trot
30:21
out nine righties. So yeah, definitely like those a's. And as a
30:23
contrarian stack, we got two games left to talk about. Another interesting game.
30:29
We've got the Cardinals taking on Griffin Canning. Any love for any of
30:33
this game, I know we think the Cardinals stink but does Griffin Canning stink?
30:37
At five to five? He's gonna be popular. Talk to me about
30:40
this game, any angels love? We didn't talk about lance Lynn, So
30:42
does that mean you like some of these Angels bats? Talk to me about
30:45
this one. You know, this is one of those games where I think
30:49
both offensive stink and both pitchy stink. If you ask me, I mean
30:53
I wouldn't feel comfortable playing either. I mean, if you wanted to go
30:57
Canning, you definitely could go Canning, like I mentioned a little bit earlier,
31:02
but I think that's just some a risky endeavor. You know, as
31:04
we mentioned, the Cardinals' bats have just been absolutely puke here recently. If
31:08
you were going to go after Canning, definitely left side of the plate is
31:12
where i'd look. New bar Gorman somebody like that is probably where I'd go
31:17
after. But definitely do respect Canning enough to leave him alone, especially because
31:21
the Saint Louis offense sucks, and man, I would love to be attacking
31:26
lance Lynn today. I think this guy's done lost it. So it's just
31:30
man, the Angels lineup, they're rolling out, it's basically Triple aesque.
31:34
I mean, it's just too hard to even think about rostering them. I
31:38
mean, you know, Mickey Moniague, if you wanted to, you know,
31:41
look somewhere like that he wanted to go there. I mean, I
31:45
don't know, man, I just there's just not enough there. I mean,
31:48
I just can't do it, man. I just I wish they were
31:52
playing a different team. I think lance Lin stinks I'm gonna stack up against
31:55
him pretty much the rest of the year in good situations. I just can't
32:00
go there with the Angels here today. So I think this game here,
32:04
if there's any plays ham, I think I'd just probably go Griffin Canning just
32:07
because of his price fifty five hundred attacking a bad offense, but I think
32:13
he will. He might get some ownership over there on DK, so I
32:16
mean, you could find a little leverage maybe if you wanted to play some
32:20
cards. I just can't do it. But man, like I said,
32:22
if the Angels lineup was, if it was somebody else other than the Angels,
32:25
I think I'd be interested in him. I just can't do it.
32:29
Yeah, I'm with you in the sense that I think lance Lynn is pretty
32:34
bad. We stacked against him with the Brewers last time out, and he
32:37
got drilled. He's not any good anymore, losing a ton of villo on
32:39
that fastball. But you said that this Angels team is not fun to stack.
32:44
But hey, I think I'm gonna give it one more try against Lance
32:46
Lynn with this team because I just don't think he's any good. And then
32:50
I'm out on these Cardinals. Man, They're just not any good, haven't
32:52
been all season. They just see him discombobulated at the plate. They're constantly
32:55
changing the line up. Their best hitter just went on the il. So
32:59
yeah, I'll pa on that. And yeah, I said Brooks was a
33:01
rookie. It shouldn't have said a rookie, But I do believe he's making
33:05
his first start this year, is what I should have said, and not
33:07
a rookie. Appreciates you, boss, bro keeping me honest there. I
33:09
think this is as shit he said. He's old as me. He is
33:15
pretty You know, I forget who it was when we were talking about the
33:19
KBO days back in the day when I think was titling I, but yeah,
33:22
I think Aaron Brooks is in the those KBO days, you know,
33:24
back during Covie, which I know you were grinding those slates with us at
33:28
four. Actually I did not, man, I was like, you know
33:30
what, I'm just gonna leave it be. You know, it's just DFS
33:34
and sports betting in general, doing it for as long as you know,
33:37
I've been doing over a decade. Especially the DFS. You gotta have them.
33:42
You gotta have them break sometimes, you know, you gotta cleanse it
33:45
out a little bit. For me, it's between football and baseball. I
33:47
like to just shut her down for a few and you know, play a
33:51
little bit. But kb O days I was more or less playing poker online
33:55
all the damn time. Ham that and trying to stell my baseball Cascius.
34:00
All that shit went up through the roof and I was like, what you
34:01
want to pay me what for this card? Shit? Yeah, it's yours.
34:06
Yeah, those are the yeah, well those are the good old days
34:08
online poker. Wish you could do that. You can't really do that anymore.
34:13
So Yeah, I think this game, I think we see some fireworks
34:15
hopefully from the Angel side tonight. Griff and Kenny definitely will be popular if
34:20
I'm seeing this right. According to what I'm looking at, the Angels have
34:22
a three imploied run tottle, so that's not very appealing. Moving into the
34:27
last game before we wrap up on out of here. In this seven game
34:30
slate, we got the Dodgers who scored ten yesterday the quiet way. I
34:35
think they hit one bomb with my show Hay, but the rest were all
34:37
singles and doubles. Taking on the Giants, got Logan Web extreme groundball picture
34:44
doesn't strike anybody out taking on Ryan Yarbro in San Francisco, which I hate
34:51
stacking this ballpark, But do you have any interest in this Dodgers team coming
34:54
off a ten run performance? I mean, Logan Web is just too good
35:00
of a picture. I mean you mentioned his ground ball rate. I mean,
35:02
this guy's a seventy one percent ground ball rate to right. He's so
35:06
far this year sixty three percent the lefties. You know, he's just he's
35:10
just not a guy that's gonna get beat up. But you know, I'd
35:14
never argue with you if you wanted this jam a Mookie in or somebody like
35:17
that. I mean, he's definitely always in play, gets you some stolen
35:21
bases. It's just like you mentioned, not a park you really wanted to
35:23
chase after probably the worst park in all of major leagues. Really, in
35:29
my opinion. But yeah, I just I don't think there's really anything here.
35:32
I mean, Yard Bro, I respect him. I mean, if
35:36
you wanted to go Giants, I think I'd rather probably prefer that side just
35:38
to go after that Dodger bullpen isn't really the greatest either, So you know,
35:43
if you wanted to maybe pick some one offs from the Giant side,
35:45
definitely will be low owned if that's something you wanted to do. You know,
35:51
Wilmer Flores is a lefty smasher. You know that guy loves him some
35:54
lefties. So if you wanted to look at a Wilmer Flores, you could
35:58
definitely go there. But uh yeah, just not something might stack. But
36:01
hey, if you want to go one off, always a Wilmer when there's
36:06
a lefty on the other side. Wilmer against lefties. I don't hate Matt
36:08
Chapman if he's in the lineup against a lefty. Uh you know those two
36:13
guys, well, I think Chapman will stay in. But you know,
36:15
so as soon as a righty or a left he comes in, I'm sorry,
36:17
alrighty comes in and normally yank Wilmer. They're just so frustrating the stack
36:22
that ballpark Y. That's a one off for me on the Dodger side as
36:24
well, with the Mooki or show Hay or Freeman, whoever fits, maybe
36:28
a Will Smith, but yeah, Logan, well, we certainly respect him
36:30
as a pitcher. We think there's other places to go before head on out
36:34
of here. Give me your top three stacks. We know you got your
36:37
top pictures. Give me your top three stacks. Then give me your home
36:40
run call of the day and we'll get on out of here. You know,
36:44
I'm gonna go astro Is one, Rangers two, and then I'll go
36:52
Braves three is where I think I'm gonna go. And then my home run
36:58
call of the day, I'm going back to Alex Bregmant. Dude as hot
37:02
