• 0:00
  Speaker 1: H m hmmm. All systems going clear the left.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: What is going on?
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Shipping Nation YouTube station.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: We're back here early for this week and next week
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: as our guy GM Risen looking to uh looking to
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: get that championship on the old lanes out there with
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: a little bowling.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Not something I've I've ever done.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: I mean, I've not gotten anywhere close to I think
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: my highest score ever bowling is like one hundred and
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: fifty points, So not great, but better better than most
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: can say. But I'll bring you in man happy Wednesday.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: We got Dave Baseball going on. We got three games
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: in the early window here, not going the best for
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: me so far, so hoping main slate's going to be
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: better than this early slate, and really trying to chase
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: some of these fifteen tickets that for the contest. I
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: think it's the twenty second which is next week sometime,
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: which is the mega Mega home run or something like
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: that on DraftKings. Usually that's a pretty chunk of pretty
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: big chunk of change up top of that contest there.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: So trying to chase some of these satellites and some
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: of the tickets over the next couple of days to
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: see if.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: I can't get my way into that contest there.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: But man, we had a lot of good members, a
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: lot of success last night in the streets here. How
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: your night go last night with the angels smashing the
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: slates and anything else leading into to you want to
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: talk on before he pulled up and walked through ger Eisen,
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: what's going on, brother.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: H not too much. It's a pretty good day to day.
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: Last night, man, Nates, we got hit with this crazy
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: thunderstorm here in southeast Michigan, and Man, two and thirty in.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: The morning, my phone's going crazy. Get your ass in
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: the basement and shit, I was like, what is happening?
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: And I hardly even rain, but it was kind of windy.
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: But so that kind of got my day, kind of
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: started to fuck my sleep pattern up last night. But yeah,
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: like you said, these next couple weeks just a little early.
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: You got to finish up my bowling season.
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: I'll be glad when that shit's done, because you know,
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: it's just starting to get warm.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: It's not fun when you're in the bowling alley. But
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: I both three times a week, Nate's you know, I
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: gotta do something up here in the winter.
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: But make some chat a lot of chatter, bowling too
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: twenty ish or so bold couple three hundred so far
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: this year.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: Whatever, good times, good times, good times. But uh yeah,
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: last night not so good man. The pitching, which we
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: thought was kind of strong Gore didn't really come out
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: very well. Yam A Modo did pretty good.
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: But yeah, I mean, I know Matt and I talked
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: a little bit that we were kind of looking at
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: weathers and you know, it didn't work out very good.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: So, I mean, you know it is what is dead.
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: Mers actually was the guy that looked pretty good on
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: the other side of that game.
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: But you know, it's baseball. Baseball's tough. You know, most
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: days you're gonna lose.
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: If you everybody thinks you're gonna win every stinking day
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: in baseball, I got something else for you. But you know, hey,
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: we're gonna get right back at it. The best thing
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: is we get to start over again today. I think
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: the slate today is interesting. The pitching I mean today,
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: like we always like to talk about, you know, like
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: how is all the mass is gonna get filtered? I
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: think today the masses are gonna get filtered, obviously, probably
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: toward a tany and cease so we're gonna see heavier
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: ownership on pitching than.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: We did yesterday.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: So you know, maybe we'll live a little bit, we'll
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: live a little bit below that radar. Maybe there's a
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: couple guys we can pull out, but uh yeah, let's
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: dig into it and figure out what we can do.
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: But yeah, it kind of looks like one of them
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: slates day Yankees are gonna be heavy chalk. It's it's
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: just a little bit more defined than yesterday, where it
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: seemed like it was a little bit more spread out.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I love Deptmar's yesterday. Det Mers I played
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Kikuchi the day before that. Anytime I see the Yankees
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: is absolutely the highest on staff by a wide margin,
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: on a fuller slate, especially against the left handed pitcher
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: to start the year with their strikeout rate.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: That they have.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they have Johns, they have Stanton, but the rest
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: of those guys, I mean, guys like I mind Rosario
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: are hitting fifth and sixth in that lineup, like Randall
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: Greechik the corpse of himself. The dude was over nine
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: hundred and he finally got a hit yesterday. But yeah,
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: I love Detmer's yesterday. So that was fun there, didn't
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: quite get all the way home, but had myself a
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: really profitable night there and talking slate of the talking
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: point of the slate today, pitching pretty gross outside of
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: quote unquote three arms that everybody wants to play in
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: Otani cease and Arraghetty, which Spencer Arraghetty chalk seems like
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: just absolutely.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Ridiculous to me.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: But he's seven k pitching at home. Should have run
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: support against the Rockies. That's not something I really want
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: to go down on. That's that's Letting Hill there. I
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: don't really feel like it's gonna be a safe landing
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: zone down there. I feel like there's a lot of
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: trees at the bottom that you might run into and
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: get knocked out there. So well, we'll see how we
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: talked through it. But yeah, definitely that game in Yankee
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Stadium we're gonna have to talk about for sure, Yankees.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Heis on stack.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go ahead and pull up our partner over
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: here at Saber sim and I did do the drive
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: run here with an average of a couple of projection
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: sources just kind of get an idea of what the
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: projections are spitting out in terms of projected ownership and
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: roster construction. You see right here Otani, Spencer, Arraghetty, Dylan,
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: see nobody else outside of one lineup in one hundred
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: and fifty sets you click over here team stacks while
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: Yankees Texas no surprise.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: So that's the that's the that's the broad slate over you.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: It's Otani, Arraghetty, Cease, Yankees Rangers and hold hands with
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: everyone else and trying to get the way to the
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: top of the leader aboard. So we'll do the best
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: we can to talk through it and break it down
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: there gee Risen, like we always do.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Eight K and above. You got Brandy Vasquez.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: His uh, underlying metrics and everything look absolutely atrocious. However,
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: last year we picked on him all season long, never
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: worked out.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: This year he comes out the gate looking like he's
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: got strikeout potential.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: But anytime you have a pitcher that does have six
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: pitches in his arsenal like of Randy Vasquez, sometimes it
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: takes a little little figuring out to do right on
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: how to navigate and utilize those pitches to your advantage
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: to keep these hitters off balance. He's at eight K
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: gets the one of the best pitching ballparks in the
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: league down there at the bottom obviously, got Cison Otani
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: up at the top. Hard to get away from them,
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: just in due to the pitching slate at hand right,
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: not many other guys on this slate, hag of the
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: potential ceilings that a cease in Otani do. But both
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: of those guys have downside. I mean, Cese, we know
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: what he is. Start to start. He's up and down regardless.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: Right one day he's gonna come out strike out ten
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: twelve guys the other day.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: It doesn't matter what the matchup is.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: It's more of just a mindset thing with cease and
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: if he has it, if he doesn't. So anytime you
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: have that right as ownership, there's always risk there. And
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: then Otani hasn't looked like an ace yet to start
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: the year. Obviously he's very talented, he's insane. The Mets
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: hit a little bit last night, but young Modo still
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: skated through. So those two guys seem like the easiest
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: clicks on the board. But none of these other guys
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: above eight K are gonna get played at all. I mean,
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: you got Vasquez, Elder, Emerson, Hancock, who's looked great and
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: has a thirty percent k rate on the season, gets
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: a tough matchup in San Diego, but a good place
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: to pitch. And then Clay Holmes, not Nolan McLean, who
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: had himself a pretty good game against the Dodgers, but
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: at eighty seven hundred feels like a tough click, especially
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: with his pitch concerns there, and uh, signing up to
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: play a pitcher that is the third highest price on
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: a slate against the Dodgers never feels like a fun
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: thing to do.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: Now, get this top tier for me? What are you
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: doing here?
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the top tier isn't that deep. Like you mentioned,
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: we got the top two guys at the top. Now,
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: I was trying to figure out who I like better
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: between Otawani and Cease, and you know, just kind of
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: looking at the matchups. I mean, you look at the
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: matchup with your Brewers. I don't want to be fooling
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: around with the Brewers when I'm you know, because the
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: Brewers don't strike out all that much.
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: They got they got.
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: Sanchez who strikes out, Mitchell strikes out, and then you
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: got Bauers, who's that twenty five percent.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: Everybody else is in the teens.
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: So the other thing the Brewers are also pretty patient,
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: and I think what could end up getting the Dylan
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: Cees is his control. I mean, this dude, fourteen percent
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: walk right to the left side, eleven percent walk right
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: to the right side, including.
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: This including from last season.
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: So I mean a cease, you know, Brewers become patient,
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: make them pitch.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: I could see for him, and when I kind of
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: compare him to Otani, Otani to me, it is just
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: the guy that I think with his even though he
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: has a lower strikeout rate, I'm not really all that
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: concerned off at this point. I think it's a better pivot.
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: It's just I like Otani overseas actually is what is
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: what I'm getting at. So it just sucks you can't
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: use him in your lineup. But for me, I think
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: I got Otani as number one. I don't fear this
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: Mets line up right now. This Mets lineup can't hit
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: for shit at all right now. So just by the
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: match up between the two teams, Uh, even though the
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: Brewers are missing Yellich and I do think that's a
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: that is that's a knock on him there, But uh,
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: I do think that Otani for me stands out Homes.
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: I don't really want to fool with the Dodgers out
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: there in LA And then when you get to the
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: bottom here, like Hancock and.
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: Vasquez an Elder, I mean they're all like, uh, I mean,
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: they got some good recency bias, sure, you know, but when,
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: like you mentioned earlier, you look under the hood, Vasquez
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: and Handcock, we're really strike out pitchers. They're all like
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: seventeen eighteen percent all last year. All of a sudden
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: they're up there a little high after a couple of
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: decent starts.
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: You know, you read into it a little bit.
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: You know, they're changing our angles and changing different things,
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: and you know, using their pitches in a little different
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: I mean, if you want to buy into all that,
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: then these guys are fairly cheap today, and then you
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: know you should look into them as pivots. I do
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: think of the three between Hancock, Elder, and Vasquez, I
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: think I'd rather play Elder, to.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: Be honest with you, I think he's the guy that
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: I'd rather play.
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: I mean, I really don't even like picking on Miami
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: at this point, but Miami's a little better than people think.
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: But I just think Elder started out the season pretty
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: good Here, he's I think he's got less than a
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: one year eight strikeout seven innings.
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: So i'm you know, at home, I think it's decent. Here.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: He's got two games with twenty four points, twenty eight points.
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: He did struggle last time out against the Indians, But
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: I think Elder would be the guy that I would
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: rather rely on.
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: The Aves have been hitting the ball really well. I
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: like his win equity, especially over there on FanDuel, Hancock
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: I think is tough. San Diego really just doesn't strike
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: out all that much. So you know, those guys are
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: tough for me. But I think I would I think
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: I would leave him in my player pool just because
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: of how well they've been pitching. I mean, if this
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: was last year, I'd already crossed the Mountain Aids. But
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: you know what, both these two guys, Hancock and Vasque,
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: has been pitching fairly well. So I think we got
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: to leave him in consideration. And then really the only
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: reason being is pitching is just so thin today. Like
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: other than Cease, you know, over in FanDuel you do
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: have Lizardo.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: I think that helps out a little bit.
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: Lizardo is a guy that I'll be looking at using
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: over there on FanDuel. But you know, I mean today
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: that it's pretty slim pickings today. I mean, I think
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: you're gonna see heavier ownership on Otani and Cease. Then
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: you're gonna want and I just I'm looking to try
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: to be a little bit different. I'm gonna want some
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: bats today, Aids. So I think if I can pay
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: down for some pitching, I might be different all ready
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: right off the bat.
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: So I think most people are probably gonna I mean, at.
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: Ninety seven hundred, ninety five hundred, I'm sure you can
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: find some bats that you could you could build, build
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: you a nice stack with using those two pictures.
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: I don't know how.
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: Popular that will be using both of them, but I
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: do believe that you're gonna see sixty seventy percent lineups.
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: You're gonna at least have one of them over on
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: dk on. They're in their roster tonight.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so I agree with a lot of what you said.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: You can see this right here. You can play a
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: five man Yankee stack very easy with both Ceas and Otani.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: So anytime that's the case, Yeah, it's gonna be a
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: popular pairing. It's gonna be the cash game Perry, if
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: not both of those guys, one of those guys in Arraghetty,
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: for sure, I prefer Otani overseas as well. I'm with
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: you there, not just because I'm a Brewers fan, But
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: the metrics tell me so, right, I mean, I mean,
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: you look at Cease. He's obviously has a strikeout strikeout
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: upside any single time or anytime he's on the slate right,
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: thirty one percent rate last year and this year combined.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: But that walk rate, and then you look at the
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: Brewers this season against right handed pitching, twenty percent walk
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: rate for Tering eighteen, almost a twenty percent walk rate
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: for Hamilton Garrett Mitchell. Yeah, he strikes out a lot,
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: but if he doesn't strike out, he's got a good eye,
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: can hit for power. And he's at a fifteen percent
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: walk rate. Freelk fifteen percent walk rate, even Sanchez right,
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: fourteen percent walk rate, Contreras thirteen percent walk right. The
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: least guy in this lineup is Joey Ortiz, if he
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: if he even makes.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: The or the lineup tonight.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: There So I am a little worried on Dylan Cease,
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: especially at the ownership. I don't like either of these
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: guys a ton at the top, Cease or Toani. I
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: just think it's so easy to play them. It's probably
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: the right thing to do. But in tournaments here, I mean,
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: if you want to play the Yankees differently, just don't
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: use Cease Rotani with your Yankees, and you can play
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: the Yankees differently right there. So for me, it is
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: Otani overseas. I think they're both playable, They're both fine.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna buy on Emerson Hancock here.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: I get it. The Padres lineup is contact heavy.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: They got to Brian Wo a little bit last night,
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: but still, I mean, eighty five hundred no ownership going
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: to him.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: You look at his outsprop on this slate.
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: He's right there in line with guys like Otani and
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: Dylan Cees for a fraction of the ownership. I mean
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: you're talking like a tenth of the ownership potentially for
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: a guy like Emerson Hancock pitching.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: In San Diego out there. I get it. Strikeouts aren't there,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: but I don't really think.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: I mean, if Otani and Ceased don't have a crazy
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: strikeout game because of the patients they get, Cease falls
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: falls behind and starts walking. Dudes, Otani just doesn't have
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: have his best stuff and the short leash that Dave
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: Roberts can have out there. I mean, you can see
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: these other guys that just kind of skate through the game,
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: maybe pick up four to five strikeouts and have six
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: innings pitch or seven innings pitch right and get there
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: on the floor that way. So for me, I don't
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: mind Hancock there nobody's gonna play. I think he's fine.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: I prefer him more to than than Elder. I just
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: I don't like Elder's upside at all. I just I
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: don't think the dude has strike on ability. I'd much
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: rather play a pitcher at a similar price point, similar ownership,
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: everything similar in the better pitchers ballpark in San Diego
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: than Atlanta.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: So that's reason for me.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: Up top, it's really Otani my favorite, then Hancock probably
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: then see than Vasquez, it would be the four guys
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: I play, not messing with Home's not messing with Elder personally.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: But I do think this is a slate where you
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: don't have to play any of these guys up top,
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: and you just get on.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: A completely different roster.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: Down below a k there is some guys that stand
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: out here to me number one obviously, Ragetty Chalk, I
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: don't really like it much. I'm actually more on the
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: Rocky side of that game. I just don't think rag
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Getty is a very good pitcher in general. Yeah, the
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: Rockies are always going to strike out, but the Rockies
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: do have some of these lefties right Adding guys like
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: Julian into this lineup, and there were two young or
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: there are two guys that our everyday starters now for
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: them this year in runfield in Troy Johnston. Willie Castro
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: coming over as well helps them, so they do have
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: more lefties to target. Arraghetti splits. He's almost a fourteen
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: percent walk right pitcher to left side. So for me
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: as heavy ownership at that price point, it's hard for me.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: So down here, I think Sean Berk's really interesting at
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: sixty five hundred, when we don't like the pitching slate much,
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: do you rise in here a guy that's sixty five
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: hundred dollars that does have some strike out upside. His
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: outs prop is solid on the slate as well. I
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: think he's he's interesting to me. He's got a fifteen
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: and a half out prop. Yeah, slightly juice to the
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: under there, but you look at a strike up prop
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: it's solid at four and a half as well. So
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: I think Sean Burk's fairly interesting to me. There is
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: some slight weather concern there in Chicago, but I'm not
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: too afraid.
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: Of this Tampa Bay lineup.
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: I mean, outside of the top Camoniro, Yondi Diaz, those guys,
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: the back half of that lineup is absolutely atrocious. So
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: Burke at sixty five hundred, I think he's interesting to me.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: Kumar Rocker, I think is fine.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: JT.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: Gin is fine, Chad Patrick maybe, but yeah, I mean
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: it's pretty gross.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: What do you seat on here?
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's pretty ugly. I mean Arregetty, I mean people
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: are just looking at that. You do strikeout numbers he's
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: got down there in the triple A. Oh it's thirty
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: six percent strikeout, right, but the dude still nineteen percent strikeout.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: But before you know, in his last season so and
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: all of a sudden, he had also lasted thirteen percent.
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: And the Rockies have been hitting the ball here in
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: recent times.
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: So I know, yesterday Goodman obviously was was the guy
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: you needed to have. But I mean when I look
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: down here, it's just It's just a bunch of nonsense
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: to me.
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: I just think they're dart throws. I mean, you look
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: at J. T. Gen. I mean I don't mind that
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: at all, but I mean all the strikeouts last year
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: basically came against righties, and I think they're gonna end
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: up throwing what six maybe six lefties against him, So
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: I mean that kind of neutralizes Gin a little bit
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: for me.
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: But you know, you look at down here and you
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: just look even at the win equity. You know, Arraghetty's
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: a minus one ninety. The Dodgers are the heaviest favorite
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: on his slate today at minus two ten. So if
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: you get Aarraghetty, you know, he's the second highest favorite.
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: I mean, so you're looking at possibly getting to win
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: if he can get you know, past the five innings there.
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: So if that's the case, you know, Arraghetty at seven K,
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: I mean, I can see why he's chalk Burke. I
• 18:24
  Speaker 4: think it's interesting, like you said, he's about an average
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: strikeout pitcher here Tampa Bay, if you just look under
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: the hood a little bit as far as some of
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: their strikeouts, you know the top of that lineup, Simpson
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: doesn't strike out much caman Aro League garage, Ronda goes
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: a little bit high, and then the bottom half of
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: that lineup does have some strikeouts in it that you
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: could be had Cedric Mullins, Walls Williamson. So yeah, I mean,
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: I think Burke's definitely interesting. He doesn't really walk guys
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: all that much, so I don't mind that at all.
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: I mean, to take a shot, there's no way in
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: hell I can play Chris Paddock. I might as well
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: go outside and go play in traffic and see if
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: I can frogger across the freeway. But yeah, no, thanks
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: on Paddock, Quintana, I mean, you can't play that guy anymore.
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: That guy might as well be playing, uh, you know,
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: being a pitcher at kickball and sultser.
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: I'm not interested in. It's just it is kind of
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: tough down there. But I think Arraghetty, I think you
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: could look at Burke, as you mentioned, I think Burke
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: is pretty much my favorite pivot off of Arraghetty, So
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: I think I would go there. But you know, then
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: really after you look at all that, and then I
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: get bounced back up to the Hancocks, the Elders in
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: the vasquezes Na It's like, I feel like I'd rather
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: just play those guys, pay up a little bit for
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: them to try and be a little bit different with
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: one of these guys, maybe paired up with like an
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: old Tani. So I think that's that's where i'd be looking.
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: But yeah, pitching shitty today.
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: So I'd rather pay down, I guess in pitching today
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: because I don't feel like there's as many land mines
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: that I have to avoid. But uh, yeah, I think
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: pitching is just terrible. I think we're we're gonna want
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: to spend their money on some bats today.
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's pretty tough. I will say, yeah, I will
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: say rag Getty if you play him, I just wouldn't
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: use CiCi Otani. I'd pivot to Hancock, Vasquez or even
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: a Homes if you wanted to up at the top
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: range and just play use Arragetty differently than than what
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: the field's gonna because obviously, if you click this right,
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: one hundred and eleven out of one hundred and fifty
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: teams projections wise, all of those are either with CiCi Otani,
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: majority of them with Otani, Raghetty Otani in like the
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: one twenty one single entry or any single untry three
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: mac small small field type contest, even it doesn't even
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: have to be higher dollar is gonna be probably both
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: of them at probably sixty percent on each just because
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: that's just how it is, right. So I just I
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: just don't think that's the right way to play baseball personally.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: So for me, I'm down here. I think Rockers interesting
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: just to bet on talent sixty seven hundred. Uh, the
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: A's have a lot of strikeouts. No Brett Rooker in
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: that lineup does help that. If Rocker can somehow can
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: figure out how to command the strike zone, I think
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: he's interesting.
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: And then the other guy I'll throw out is Chad Patrick.
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: The dude has not looked good yet to start the year,
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: but you look at his numbers from last season.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: I mean he was a twenty six percent strike up
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: rate guy.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not the best matchup, but none of these
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: guys have good matchups really outside of the chalk on
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: the slate.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: And we just.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: Poke Tols in that, or at least I just poke
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: Tolls in that when explaining it. So if you wanted
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: to take a shot in a guy like Chad Patrick,
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: who should have mid mid eighties in terms of pitch
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: count there you could, but yeah, it's it's it's gross
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: in general. I guess ranking them for me, I'll go
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: with Tani number one. I like Sean Burke quite a bit. Actually,
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: he's kind of a guy I'm buying on. I'll put
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: him to I'll put Handcap Hancock three, Vasquez four, and
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: then i'll put I'll put Dylan Cease five. I really
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: don't like Irregetty much at all personally. What's your kind
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: of top five here, do you?
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: Rysen?
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll go Tony one, Cease two, and then I'll
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: go I'll go Burke, Hancock, Elder Awesome. Yeah, that's why
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: I think the way I go. And you know, just
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: looking even more at your Burke Cows, just kind of
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: looking at teams that I mean, naids were getting to
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: be about twenty games in now, so I kind of
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: start like watching to pay attention, you know what teams
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: have been hitting, what teams are not, you know what bullpens.
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: We're starting to kind of get some significant numbers where
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: I feel I can feel comfortable about it. And I
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: mean you look at the Rays. I mean they got
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: twelve homers. They're obviously not hitting for power. They do
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: have a decent average, but it's just not a team
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna really fear. So I think Burke is definitely
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: a very good pivot off Araghetti today.
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you. It could burn me. It could not,
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: but all these guys in the slate could burn you,
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: and at least you're not paying to find out. Right,
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: he's done there in that six skate range, sixty five
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: hundred at home and basically a game that that Vegas
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: has to pick uIP. So yeah, I mean on him.
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: He's probably my favorite overall consider an, ownership, points, per
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: dollar everything, favorite pitcher on the slate, which is really
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: gross to say, but that's the that's the slate we
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: have at hand. So now we jump over and start
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: talking hitting where things open up. Obviously, when pitching is gross,
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: hitting likely seems to be much better. And the first
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: game to kick us off here is Yankee Stadium by
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: far the best hitting environment.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: Is well on the slate tier.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: We saw this game kind of go crazy all series
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: so far, at least on one side or the other.
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: The first game was obviously twelve to eleven last night.
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: The Angels did the job for me. Outside of Zach Natto.
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: Fuck that dude, So naturally he's gonna hit four home
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: runs tonight instead of strikeout four times. But man, you
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: look at the ownership on the slate, projections, dry runs everything,
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: there's not another. I mean, the Yankees are twice as
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: owned of any other team on this slate.
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: Twice is owned, and we have.
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: I mean, there's games on the slate, right, it's an
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: eight game slate. There's sixteen teams to choose from. You're
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: telling me the Yankees are double double is owned. Does
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: anyone else? I mean, it's just interesting to me. Obviously,
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: this is their best spot, in my opinion, of any
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: of them so far. The lefties, you like, this is
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: their best lineup right when they're facing right handed pitching.
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: This is when you want to play the Yankees.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: It's Jack Kochanowitz, who's looked absolutely atrocious this year.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: It's the Angels bullpen, which is not good. I get it.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: I get the reason for the Yankees. I just it's
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: it's tough. I mean, it's just I don't know. I
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: prefer the Angels side of this game. You Louise Heal
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: can walk this entire team. Jorge Silaire is gonna be
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: out of the lineup tonight, serving his four game suspension.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: There, but Zach Nette, I'll go I'll go back to
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: the well.
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: Mike Trout looks healthy, looks like one of the best
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: players in baseball, like he's always been is as long
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: as he's healthy.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: I like him.
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: I think this game is interesting on both sides, but
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: in tournaments, I prefer the angel slide slightly.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: Here. What do you see?
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean the Yankees is great out. It is
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: so high.
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: I mean, they they're the clear number one stack. But
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: we're not playing that way, you know, like we got
• 25:17
  Speaker 4: to figure out everybody else is gonna probably be rolling
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: out some Yankees, But I do I mean, if you
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: want to have a Yankee stack, I think Ben Rice
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: is a guy that I'd be sure to include in
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: my stack.
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: I think I actually like him more than Aaron Judge today,
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: to tell you the truth.
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: So you know, the Yankees, this fucking jack jack in
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: the box. He can't strike out anybody, nads a dude,
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: He's a mid level ground ball pitcher.
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: Then you look over here at these Yankees. None of
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: them are ground ball hitters. They're all fly ball hitters
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: that they're gonna see today. So Jack in the Box
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: is gonna be in some trouble here today, I feel.
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: But you know, they they can still score eight, nine,
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: ten runs and still not win the slate. So you know,
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: it doesn't mean just because they score a bunch of runs,
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: you know that they're gonna absolutely Nukia.
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: But I just think they're gonna be so popular today,
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: you're gonna have to nail that stack. I mean pretty much,
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: you're gonna have to have the four out of five
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: for sure too. Uh, They're gonna be so popular popular today.
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: As far as the Angels go, I can see your point.
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: The Angels have been actually been hitting pretty well. I
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: mean even last year, if we recall they came out
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: the gate. We're one of the more powerful teams, especially
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: you know, from the right side. So I do like
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: the Angels. I just don't have them ranked up as high.
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: You know, over on FANDOL there's a couple of games
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: that aren't in it. And you know I was telling
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: you pre show, I mean I got the Pirates ranked
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: actually had the Yankees over there on FanDuel.
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: But uh, yeah, the the Yankees for me, great out
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: the highest.
• 26:41
  Speaker 4: But we're gonna have to try to figure out, you know,
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: how to get a little bit different and build something
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: that we feel can definitely compete and beat these Yankee stacks.
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: I think there's a few good options as we move
• 26:51
  Speaker 4: along here, but I mean this game right out the gate,
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: highest total, I mean ten and a half, but really
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: good hitting conditions. We know that bullpen just absolutely sucks
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: for the Angels, and I was just checking here that
• 27:04
  Speaker 4: Yankee bullpen. Yeah, it's been mid form. It's like mid
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: middle of the pack. So nothing nothing, you know, nothing bad,
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: nothing great, But yeah, that Angel bullpen sucks.
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Angels bullpen eighth worst in terms of x FIP
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: on slate, Yankee sit sixteenth, so basically dead center. I'm there,
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: So yeah, it's just obviously on paper. Right, we could
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: come on here, tell you to play Otan he play Seas,
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: play the Yankees, and the show would be done in
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: five minutes. Right, That's not what we want to do.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: Everyone in this Yankees lineup in single entry three max
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: smaller field stuff are all gonna be twenty percent or
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: higher outside of maybe Jose Caballero, right, which, yeah, I mean,
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: the dude has upside there, So I would probably make
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: sure if I'm stacking the Yankees to include Caballero. I
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: actually want the lefties first, So I'm fine stacking the Yankees.
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: You want to stack the Yankees differently, Leave out Judge,
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: leave out Stanton, play Cavallero, wrap it around at the
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: top played Grisham, Rice Bellinger, Jazz or Wells, Cavallero, Grisham,
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: Rice Bellinger, something like that. You leave out Judge, you
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: leave out Stanton. That that's how you stack them differently. Right,
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: A Judge is gonna be probably the highest on player
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: on the slate.
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: I get it.
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: It's Channa wetch He's not good everything there, But I
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: mean people are just just think because Luis Heel has
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: a Yankees uniform on, he's good.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: I mean, look at the dude's numbers.
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: The dude has a fifteen percent k rate between this
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: year and last year to the left side, fifteen percent
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: walk rate the same both sides. He doesn't strike anyone out,
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: He allows fly balls, he allows hard to hit, he
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: allows barrels power. I mean, Mike Trout, Netto, Josh Lowe,
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: Shanuel Mancata, all of these guys right can hit the ball.
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: So I like the Angels quite a bit Actually in tournaments,
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: they're one of my top stacks on the board. Ownership
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: is not going to be there full nine and at
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: bats the exact same weather, exact same hitting positions.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: It's nothing like the Yankees bullpen has.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: Been shut down either, like like I talked about there,
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: So I'm in definitely prefer the Angels at ownership in tournaments.
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: Yankees best play on the slate in terms of on paper,
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: but we know how that always turns out. Could be
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: the night that they go off for twelve. You're gonna
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: need them, but you're gonna have to devote a lot
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: of your portfolio to it because there's gonna be the
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: bull that play seventy percent Yankee stacks right, if not
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: even locking Yankee stats and just plant their flag right
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: that they're gonna have the right combo. So takes us
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: in the next game here, Truce Park, Marlins, Braves, Bryce
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: Elder on the mound, Chris Paddock talk about one of
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: my top stacks on the board, hits the Braids.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: The Braves have been hitting. Chris Paddock allows a ton
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: of home runs.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, this dude straight throws fucking slow pitch softball
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: out there. I mean these lefties look absolutely incredible for
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: the Braves, and then adding the righties like Acunya.
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: And Austin Riley. Austin Riley at thirty seven hundred.
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: I know the dude's declining and this and that, but
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: thirty seven hundred for the power that he can have,
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: even regardless of if it's a lefty. Alrighty, I don't
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: care when Chris Paddock's on the mound. Right, So I
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: like this Braid's line up. A Ton dom smith, Yastremski,
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: Dubon and Harris Dubon's actually been hitting really really well
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: this year. That back half of the lineup is very
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: very nice. I mean, you could do a rap around
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: stack really easily here do six seven, eight nine two
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: three or two or something like that? Right, So I
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: really like the Braves here. A Ton Marlin's not.
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: So much for me.
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: It's just I'm not really getting to elder much. The
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: Marlins prices are up there. I don't love it. I
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: just don't love Elders upside much. But maybe that puts
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: him back into the pool after looking at it more,
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: just because pitchers are pretty hard to come by here.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: What do you see on this one?
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah? I gotta agree with you on the Braves here.
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: I think the Braves are in a great spot.
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: I don't think they're that much further behind the Yankees
• 30:42
  Speaker 4: when you look at it. Paddock sucks. I mean, as
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: you mentioned, his isottle left, he's like two thirty seven
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: to Righty's. I mean, Baldwin's sitting up there and Olsen
• 30:50
  Speaker 4: sitting up there at top of that lineup. And I
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: think I saw Olson hit a home run the other day. Man,
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: I think he hit that shit to the moon. It
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: was like, damn, that boy smoked it. I think he
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: hit it over there like restaurant or something like that.
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: He just absolutely blistered one.
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: I think he was wearing that light blue his light
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: blue jersey if I remember the highlight. But man, Nazan, you.
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: Look at these Braves, they're top three and slugging so
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: far this year in baseball, there are top five in
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: home runs.
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: I mean, the Braves.
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: Quietly are so far running out the gate and hitting
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: the ball pretty well, even though Acuna only costs like
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: three thousand, you know on FanDuel, which is absolutely nuts
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: to me. But yeah, I mean Paddock is a guy
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: we definitely want to pick on the Lefties definitely first here.
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: And you know, I don't mind at all just going
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: pretty much. I'd rather I think.
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: If I was gonna, you know, I'm building one fifty,
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: I think I would probably double up my ownership on
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: the Braves and I would the Yankees.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm right there with you.
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: I'm if my memory doesn't let me see real quick,
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure you can steal on Chris Paddock as well,
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: which does add not a lot of people talk about
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: bullpens are so and based upside or potential. He hasn't
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: allowed one. He allowed eight last year, So not the
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: best guy to steal on. But you can throw that
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: in there too. But yeah, I love love the Braves
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: here tonight. They'll probably let us down. Anytime people are
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: on the Braves, they always fall flat on their face.
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: But any team outside of the Yankee is gonna be
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: fairly low owned relative to to the slate. So Braves
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: flit that bill. I like Braves a lot here tonight
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: on the slate. Next game, Raised White Sox. This is
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: a game I don't love much.
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: Obviously.
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: I'm on Burke pretty heavily. This Bray, this Raised lineup
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: is just not good to me. I mean, look at
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: this lineup. I mean it's gross. Outside of the top Simpson,
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: cam Niro, Randa Diaz, I mean the back half is
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: just absolutely atrocious. You got Walls, Fiducia, Palacios, Mullins, the
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: Corps of Mullens that that still left Jake Freiley. Yeah,
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: could could they do some damage? Yeah, I'm not gonna
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: be on it. I don't really like it. I get
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: the White Sox bullpens not great as well. White So
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: I don't really like either. I mean, Murakami, I think
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: is a great play. Colson Montgomery is a great player.
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: Anytime they're on the slate, they get this platoon advantage.
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: They both mash right handed pitching. Murk Commy's gonna be
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: a dude that has hell of power anytime he's on
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: the slate, especially facing a right hander.
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: So I think he's an interesting one off at first base.
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: Right, I much prefer guy like Ben Rice, but everybody
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: does right, So I think he's an interesting one off
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: or mini stack.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: Right, you can play him in Montgomery little two man
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: mini there. What do you see? White Sox and race.
• 33:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not really a fan of either side of this. Actually,
• 33:34
  Speaker 4: I mean it's just hard to It's hard to stack
• 33:37
  Speaker 4: up the Rays. I mean the White Sox. I couldn't
• 33:39
  Speaker 4: stack up if you paid me. The White Sox can't
• 33:42
  Speaker 4: hit themselves out of a damn paper bag. They got
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: the lowest slugging percentage in all of baseball at three
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: oh seven so far this year. So yeah, I mean
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: they're they're like in royal territory from last year. I
• 33:52
  Speaker 4: just they're gonna start crossing them boys off. So but
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: uh yeah, I mean we got a game total seven
• 33:57
  Speaker 4: and a half. I think there's two good of offenses
• 33:59
  Speaker 4: to try to get too, so I'm just gonna pass.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, we see pretty close next game on the slate,
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: Blue Jays and the Brewers.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: No ownership going to either side of this game.
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: I think it's fairly sneaky both sides, but definitely the
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: Blue Jay side.
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: Here.
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: Just a bet on Chad Patrick not being right yet.
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: He hasn't looked great to start the year. He looked
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: much better obviously. Last year was really good for the Brewers.
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: Last year just hasn't been the same pitcher, and blue
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: Jay has started hitting a little bit last night. I'd
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: be interested to see this lineup, but Jimenez is hitting
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: well right now, Hacy Sanchez, Dalton Varshall hit a bomb
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: last night. Again, Vlad has always got tons of power.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: O Komodo always tons of power too. With this, with
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: the strikeouts that come with him, I think the Blue
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: Jays are fairly interesting. And then I will always mention
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: Bryce Terrang, Jake Bauers, Garrett Mitchell. Those three absolutely mashed
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: right handed pitching, especially Jake Bauers and Terrang.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: Nobody's gonna click them.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: You get massive leverage off of Dylan ce So in
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: a lineup where you're playing show hey Watani over Dylan Sees,
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't fault anyone for going to a Jake Bauers,
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: Bryce Trang something like that mini stack. They're the only
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: issue is Blue Jays do have the best bullpen in
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: baseball by a pretty wide margin, so it is tricky there.
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: But again Bowers, Mitchell, Terrag, those guys can get there
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: with stolen bases too.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: Seas can blow up at times.
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: I don't think it's the craziest play, but definitely prefer
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: the blue Jay side of this game a lot more
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: than the Brewers.
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: What do you see here?
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean just kind of reading around looking at
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: you know, all the uh, all the plays today in baseball.
• 35:31
  Speaker 4: I mean Chad Patrick. I've seen a couple guys just
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: feel like he's not right. So you know, like, are
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: we basing it, you know, our play on the Blue
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: Jays on that. I mean, maybe it enhances a little bit.
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: But if you look at, you know, in the past
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: with Patrick, I mean, he gives up a lot of
• 35:46
  Speaker 4: fly balls to the left side, you know, So you
• 35:48
  Speaker 4: got a guy like Dalton Varshol sitting there in that
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: two hole with a thirty eight percent fly ball percentage,
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: is just staring at me at a home run today.
• 35:56
  Speaker 4: Nate So, I mean, Hayzu Sanchez, Nathan lu I do
• 36:00
  Speaker 4: like those lefties, and you could obviously throw in Vlad
• 36:04
  Speaker 4: I mean Eloy heman Is.
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: I mean, this guy sucks. I don't even know what
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: he's doing anymore.
• 36:09
  Speaker 4: But that's like the only spot that I don't even
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: really like in that lineup. I mean, Ernie Clement. That's
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: kind of hard to click too, but still, you know,
• 36:18
  Speaker 4: I think they're definitely in play. I wouldn't put him
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: up there in my favorites, but you know, it's definitely doable.
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: That's for sure, you definitely want the lefties. Venza tell
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: of Velenzeuela, the LEFTI catcher there. He's hit for a
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: lot of power actually to start the year two. So yeah,
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: you want the lefties against Patrick. Even if Patrick figures
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: it out, you look at just his long term sample,
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: his strikeouts are significantly lower to the left side, significantly
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: higher fly ball rate, hard hit rate, everything. So guys
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: like Dalton, Varshell, hayesus Sanchez are right up there with
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: some of the best plays in the slate in my opinion.
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: And then you got a cheap catcher to go along
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: with it.
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: You got a nine to two four stack or something
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: like that, depending on what that line up shakes out like.
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: So and then Jimenez right, so I would really like,
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: I want to see what this lineup looks like. But
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: I think a wrap around Blue Jay stack is pretty
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: interesting here. It's above average place to play for hitting wise, right,
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: it plays above average in terms of home runs and
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: run production, everything indoors there in Milwaukee.
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: So yeah, blue.
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: Jays are pretty interesting here. Everybody's been on them all year.
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: This feels like a spot. Something tells me, Gee, Risen,
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: this feels like a spot. Where the Blue Jays are
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: going to kind of explode and they let everyone down.
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: So far throughout the first what eighteen games or whatever
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: it's been, they've been chalky. Majority of the slates they've
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: been on. Ceased is obviously going to be the Megachalk.
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: I don't think how many. I don't think a lot
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: of people pare him up with these Blue Jays bats.
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: So I do think the Blue Jays are really interesting,
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: and like I said, those three Bluers make a lot
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: of sense in my eyes, mainly Terrang and Jake Bowers.
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: There next team in the slates Rockies and the Astros.
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: Spencer Aarraghetti Spaghetti over here, Jose Quintana, welcome back in
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: our lives. Now you're pitching for the Rockies here up
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: against one of the best hitting teams in UH Baseball
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: to start the year, especially against right hand and pitching.
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: Now they face a lefty which obviously they're gonna throw
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: eight righties at Quintana here. Astros probably one of the
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: top stacks of the slates.
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: They're gonna be significantly lower owned.
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: I don't ever like playing the Astros when they're owned,
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: But when you have the Yankees as double anyone else
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: on the slate the Astros, and you get that Rockies
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: bullpen as well, I don't think is very good at
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: by any means, So guys like Paridi's Christian Walker, Cam Smith, Diaz,
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: even Bryce Matthews, I think the Astros are are pretty interesting.
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: Then I don't hit these lefties for the Rockies. Here
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: you get direct leverage off Irrigatti. Everybody wants to play
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: them because of the price point. Guys like Julian Moniac Runfield,
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: Troy Johnston, Castro, these these lefties, and then obviously Hunter Goodman,
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: who's hitting BA balls right now in Tovar at thirty
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: nine hundred.
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: I think the Rockies are really interesting here too.
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: They're one of my favorite sneaky stacks on the slate,
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: if not my favorite overall. Because you you want to
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: talk about bullpens, the Astros have been I think the
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: best hitting team in the league, but have like one
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: of the worst records because look at their bullpen.
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: I mean x FIP of four point nine to five
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: right there with Washington, right we knew how bad Washington's
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: bullpen was. They're one point eight four home runs per nine.
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: I expected era approaching five like they just have not
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: been good at all. So yeah, I like this game
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: on both sides. For offense, here, what do you see? Yeah,
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: that Houston bullpen sucks.
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 39:41
  Speaker 4: They already walked like fifty six guys like eighty some
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: hit It's there.
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: They're they're bad. Well, you you mentioned the two that
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: are the absolute worst, that is for sure. But I
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: do like the leverage you're gonna get off the Rockies,
• 39:53
  Speaker 3: as you mentioned earlier with Araghetty. I mean, Arraghetty started
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: down in Triple A for a reason, he couldn't make
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: this team to be with, and now all of a
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: sudden he's gonna come back, and you know, all of
• 40:03
  Speaker 3: a sudden he's gonna be a chalk pitcher today. Get
• 40:05
  Speaker 3: out of here.
• 40:06
  Speaker 4: So I'm not I'm really I'm really not interested. I
• 40:09
  Speaker 4: think I do like the leverage today. Like yesterday we
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: were talking with some of the plays there will wasn't
• 40:14
  Speaker 4: enough leverage to kind of take that risk, and I
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: think this is a pretty good spot to obviously take
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: that risk. And then you look over at these astros.
• 40:22
  Speaker 4: I mean Quintana stinks, man, I mean he's just he
• 40:25
  Speaker 4: is not good. He's gonna be putting the he's not
• 40:28
  Speaker 4: gonna be striking anybody out. The ball is gonna be
• 40:30
  Speaker 4: in play quite a bit. I mean, he does have
• 40:32
  Speaker 4: a slight ground balling a little.
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: Bit more to left side, but as you mentioned, he's
• 40:36
  Speaker 3: gonna see eight righties except for Jordon that he'll see.
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: And then you look at some of these fly ball percentages.
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: You know, Jordon thirty eight percent, Paradi's thirty four percent,
• 40:48
  Speaker 4: Walker thirty eight percent. Christian Walker is a guy that
• 40:52
  Speaker 4: I really like today too, So Varshow and Walker two
• 40:54
  Speaker 4: guys I think could definitely hit some home runs today.
• 40:58
  Speaker 4: But uh yeah, I think that stack is definitely interesting here,
• 41:02
  Speaker 4: and this game could turn into a softball game pretty quick, actually,
• 41:06
  Speaker 4: So don't mind the don't mind either side of it.
• 41:09
  Speaker 4: If I had to probably pit choose, I probably just
• 41:13
  Speaker 4: go Astros just because I don't respect Quintana at all.
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: But uh yeah, give me the ass does give me
• 41:19
  Speaker 3: all them righties.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I like the Rockies slightly more.
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: I'm assuming the Rockies bullpen is gonna kind of regress
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: back down, but so far they've been sitting right there,
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: top five in baseball in terms of bullpen metrics. I mean,
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: that's that's pretty interesting at least to say I mean
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: three point six to two x FIP home runs per
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: nine at point six y three, which is like one
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: of the lowest in the league expected d RA even
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: they're actual ere sitting at two point nine expected e
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: RA not much higher than that. So they have been good.
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: But I just don't think when Ton is any good either.
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: So yeah, it's in tournaments. I like the Rockies or
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: but Astros are up there too. I like both sides.
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: That's one of the best offensive games, if not the
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: best on the slate, maybe slightly behind that that Angels
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: Rockies game or that Angels Yankees game.
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: Next team in the.
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: Slate, Mariners, Padres, Vasquez, Hancock, two pitchers I think are good,
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: at least to start the year.
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: Bullpark sucks.
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: Both bullpens of these teams are good, especially that Padres.
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: I just I think there's an easy game just to
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: not even get to anyone for hitting.
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: Wise, what do you see here?
• 42:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not really like it.
• 42:32
  Speaker 4: I mean, Vasqueaz is a guy you can go after
• 42:35
  Speaker 4: as far as you know, stealing some bags. But and
• 42:39
  Speaker 4: then you look at Seattle here, I don't even think
• 42:41
  Speaker 4: they're really They're not even stealing any bases, I don't
• 42:44
  Speaker 4: think at this point. So yeah, I mean that's a
• 42:46
  Speaker 4: guy generally. Yeah, they they've only got nine stone bases
• 42:49
  Speaker 4: so far this year. But yeah, I mean it's just
• 42:51
  Speaker 4: that's a tough run there. I don't I think there's
• 42:54
  Speaker 4: other better spots. As you said, I don't really like
• 42:58
  Speaker 4: either one of these two spots. I just don't even
• 42:59
  Speaker 4: really like the park.
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: So no, thanks. I think there's too good of offense today.
• 43:03
  Speaker 3: Be fooling with that.
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean a Rosa Reino run, Donovan'll run.
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: But outside of that, I mean Josh Naylor was running
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: last year just because I mean, you want to expect him,
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: but he's really good at just timing it out. It's
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: just I think you're chasing here. I just don't like
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: the park much. I respect both bullpens a lot. I
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: respect the starting pitchers, at least relative to the slates.
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: So I just think you're you're pushing there to get
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: to that game for offense could happen. It's baseball. Anything
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: can happen at the end of the day, right, talk
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: about it all the time. Hall of Famers seven out
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: of ten times they fail. Any of these guys can
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: fail any giving slate. Any of these guys can nuke
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: any given slate. We're just gonna try and put ourselves
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: in the best probability spot that to to make money.
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: Next team in the slate Rangers and the Athletics.
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: This is the first time this park has good weather,
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: at least relative to the slates.
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: We got some wind blowing out. We know this stadium,
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: the cracker Jack Park out there in Sacramento. Minor league
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: stadiums are much more wind affected than others due to
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: the obviously the stands and all of that right for
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: the seating, and that just isn't as built up as
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: normal stadiums are, because again it's it's spring training. It's
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: minor league.
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: Seventy degrees, which isn't crazy warm, but relative to the
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: rest of the slate, it's good. And you got double
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: digit wind blown straight out to left center field the
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: entire duration of this game. You got Kumar Rocker, who
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: can walk the whole lineup. You've got jg Gin who
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: is clear cy young against righty's but a bullpen arm
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: or a batting practice pitcher at best to the left side.
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: Both of these pitchers I mentioned a little bit in
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: terms of upside just because of the slates and their salaries.
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: But I think this is a prime spot you can
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: play both sides. If I had to pick a side,
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: I leaned on the Rangers lefties for sure. I think
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: the A's get more ownership, which I'm a little worried
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: just because of Rocker.
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: JT. Ginn Is is just absolutely abysmal against lefties.
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: So guys like Corey Seeger Brendon, Nimo, Evan Carter if
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: he's in there, I don't even want to say Jack Petterson,
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: but sure him, he's got power, Josh Smith, and then
• 45:17
  Speaker 2: you got guys like Jake Berger, who's had a hell
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: of a start to the season.
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: I think this game is really interesting both sides.
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: From an offensive perspective, I lean the Rangers side in general,
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: just with that extra.
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: Added at bat. But what do you see here Rangers
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: and Athletics.
• 45:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, especially with the Rangers, I'm gonna want some lefties
• 45:35
  Speaker 4: against gen As you mentioned, he's not very good against
• 45:37
  Speaker 4: the lefties.
• 45:37
  Speaker 3: So I couldn't play Jack Peters. He's probably about the
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: only one.
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: I think.
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: He's pinch hit risk as well. But yeah, if you're
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: gonna tack in, I mean we like the park.
• 45:48
  Speaker 4: Obviously, we know out there in Sacramento it's a park
• 45:50
  Speaker 4: we want to look at. But I'd like the Texas side.
• 45:53
  Speaker 4: That Oakland side scares me a little bit. Kumar's got
• 45:57
  Speaker 4: a Harold and Kumarer over here has got little ground balling,
• 46:01
  Speaker 4: and these A's do pound the ball into the ground
• 46:04
  Speaker 4: quite a bit. Butler is at forty five percent, Solderstrom
• 46:07
  Speaker 4: fifty percent, Wilson fifty three percent, Clark's fifty four. You
• 46:11
  Speaker 4: got a handful of guys that are in the forty so,
• 46:14
  Speaker 4: I mean, Kumar, I guess if you want to look
• 46:16
  Speaker 4: at it, I guess you'd want to attack them with
• 46:19
  Speaker 4: the lefties Kurtz and Soderstrom. But I just think there's
• 46:22
  Speaker 4: too many ground balls there for me with a ground
• 46:25
  Speaker 4: ball pitcher on the hill. But Texas, to me, them
• 46:27
  Speaker 4: lefties definitely stand out. Corey Seger to me is a
• 46:29
  Speaker 4: great plague, but a great one.
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: I think all the lefties.
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: And the reason I say that is the A's only
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: have one lefty in the bullpen in Hogan Harris, who's
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: obviously a good arm, but he threw yesterday and he
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: threw two days ago, so he's at thirty thirty two
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: pitches in three days. I would be very, very shocked
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: if he pitches again tonight.
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: It's early in the year. I just don't think it.
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: And he's their only lefty to.
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: Have all year right in their bullpen unless they make
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: a trade or calls up or something like that. As
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: it stands right now, he's the only lefties. So I'm
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: gonna be interested to see what this Rangers lineup does.
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: They're gonna throw as many lefties, if not every lefty
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: they have to offer, and they're probably gonna play the
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: full game, right, So I definitely love the Rangers here
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: over the A's.
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: I think the a's.
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: A's are probably the second most popular stack on the board,
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: at least projected ownership wise. I mean, it's between them
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: and the Braves, which is a close up, and then
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: it's nobody even close after that, obviously behind the Yankees there.
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I lean the Rangers here. I like the
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: Rangers quite a bit. Brandon Nimmel, Corey Seger two of
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: my favorite plays there. White Langford getting back in this
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: lineup at yesterday, obviously it's already ready, but he's a
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: great player in his own right, So I do like
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: the Rangers quite a bit. I will call out the
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: lefties though for the A's butler Kurtz Soderstrom. Those three
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: I think are is an elite mini stack if you
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: want to get there in like a four to three
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: run or a five to three type bill. I think
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: those lefties for sure. And then obviously lang Lears you
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: can play him anytime he's on the slip last game
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: on the Slate Dodger Stadium show, Hey Otani going for
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: the Dodgers, play homes going for the Mets. Dodgers playable
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: for sure, They're gonna be low owned. That naturally has
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: interest whenever nobody's playing the Dodgers, especially nobody really ever
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: plays excuse me, the Dodgers when Otani's pitching, because for
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: some reason, nobody likes to play the Dodgers when you
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: can't roster Otani as a hitter, even though his points
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: home runs don't matter.
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: But what does he do? He helps the rest of
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: your stack.
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: And not only that, not having his salary makes his
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: stack a lot more affordable. Right, So I think the
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: Dodgers are are very interesting. I mean their minus two
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: twenty favorite with over a five implied run total and
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: nobody's clicking their names because play homes is on the
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: mound and you got you got the Dodger or the
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: Yankees and Yankee Stadium facing co Channelwitz Right, So Dodgers
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: interesting for me for sure. Freddie Freeman, Max Munsey two
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: of the better plays in the slate in my opinion.
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: Andy Pahz is absolutely mashing. I mean, this dude's like,
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: metrics wise up there with as one of the league leaders.
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: And this dude hits like seventh or eighth for the Dodgers.
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: That just shows you how good their lineup is. Kyle
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: Tucker obviously great play, even with his slow start. Met's
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: side much harder for me. I get the leverage on Otani.
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: I would just much rather leverage Dylan Cease.
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: Over Otani personly myself. But Lindor hit a bomb yesterday.
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: Maybe he keeps it rolling Polanco some of those lefties
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: if you wanted to. But Dodgers are busting this one
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: mainly for me.
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: What do you see here?
• 49:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the Dodgers I got pretty close to the Braves
• 49:33
  Speaker 4: as far as where I'd rank them. I mean, you know, Holmes,
• 49:36
  Speaker 4: just what we're sitting at a seventeen eighteen percent strike
• 49:40
  Speaker 4: our raid.
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: He's had control issues.
• 49:42
  Speaker 4: He does have a ground ball lean, but I mean
• 49:45
  Speaker 4: we talk about you know, when you got a ground
• 49:47
  Speaker 4: ball pitcher on the hill, you like to have guys
• 49:49
  Speaker 4: that hit fly balls. And there ain't no better team
• 49:51
  Speaker 4: than the Dodgers. I mean, the Dodgers are pretty much
• 49:54
  Speaker 4: loaded with fly ball hitters. They've been barrowing up righties
• 49:57
  Speaker 4: all season. So far, they got the most homer and
• 50:00
  Speaker 4: all of baseball the Dodgers. They got the highest lugging
• 50:02
  Speaker 4: percentage so far in all of baseball. I mean, they've
• 50:05
  Speaker 4: just been absolutely smashing the shit out of it. And
• 50:09
  Speaker 4: uh I mean anytime I think that you can get
• 50:11
  Speaker 4: the Dodgers out of a discount, especially when there's like
• 50:14
  Speaker 4: a heavier couple chalkier teams, I think the Dodgers for me,
• 50:18
  Speaker 4: are a great pivot.
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: I mean, on any slate, they're gonna be.
• 50:20
  Speaker 4: But today I don't think they're gonna get the ownership
• 50:23
  Speaker 4: that they probably should Aids. I mean, like you said,
• 50:26
  Speaker 4: people are gonna turn away from him because you can't
• 50:28
  Speaker 4: use Otani. But uh yeah, I think that the Dodgers
• 50:31
  Speaker 4: are definitely play I don't want any part of the Mets,
• 50:34
  Speaker 4: but as you mentioned that Dodger lineup so deep, Pa,
• 50:36
  Speaker 4: he is hitting way down as he is. Dude's one
• 50:38
  Speaker 4: of the hottest hitters in baseball. But uh yeah, give me,
• 50:42
  Speaker 4: give me some Dodgers. So, I mean, if I had
• 50:44
  Speaker 4: to rank them, Naids, FANDU, I got the Pirates ranked
• 50:47
  Speaker 4: really high.
• 50:48
  Speaker 3: I got them ranked up there with with the Yankees.
• 50:50
  Speaker 4: But I mean, just kind of looking at him, I
• 50:52
  Speaker 4: think I'd probably go Braves, Dodgers Yankees is probably the
• 50:56
  Speaker 4: way I would look at my my stacks here today.
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: No, excellent, there, excellent breakdown that takes us to the
• 51:03
  Speaker 2: end of the show where we do your favorite pitcher combination,
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: a chalkier arm and then a lower owned arm. I
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: know it's gonna be tough on this slate, and then
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: your favorite stack, a sneaky stack in a home run coffee.
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: Have it for the people? What do you see here?
• 51:18
  Speaker 3: All right, Well, let's roll with my favorite pictures.
• 51:22
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna go with Otani and then I will go with.
• 51:27
  Speaker 3: Let's go with Burke. We'll go Tani Burke so I
• 51:30
  Speaker 3: can get some bats.
• 51:32
  Speaker 4: But then I think the sneaky stack for me today,
• 51:37
  Speaker 4: I think is gonna have to be the Rangers. I
• 51:39
  Speaker 4: think will be my sneakier stack against Gin and then,
• 51:43
  Speaker 4: like I said, I got the Braves, I got the Dodgers,
• 51:45
  Speaker 4: and then I'd have them over the Yankees.
• 51:47
  Speaker 3: But I'm FanDuel.
• 51:48
  Speaker 4: I got the Pirates probably ranked number one actually, so
• 51:50
  Speaker 4: if you're over there on FanDuel, I think the Pirates
• 51:52
  Speaker 4: would be a great stack with like the Brazer Dodgers.
• 51:55
  Speaker 3: Today to get away from the Yankees.
• 51:57
  Speaker 4: So but yeah, I mean it's interesting, a little bit
• 52:01
  Speaker 4: more chalkier than yesterday. As far as home run go
• 52:03
  Speaker 4: with n Aid's I think I already kind of met you.
• 52:05
  Speaker 4: I like Christian Walker and var Show today, so I
• 52:07
  Speaker 4: don't want to pick one or the other, but I
• 52:09
  Speaker 4: really like both of them.
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: Awesome.
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna go with I'm go Emerson Hancock, I
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: think just uh, I think he's a pivot.
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: And then I'm gonna go with Tany I like him.
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go Angels and the Rockies for me as
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: my lower owned offenses.
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: And then home run call.
• 52:27
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go to two lefties hitting kind of in
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: the middle to back half of the lineup.
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to the Braves, Mike Yastremsky. I like
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: him a lot.
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: At three k flat, I think that's a great value
• 52:37
  Speaker 2: against Chris Paddock, and I'm gonna go to the rangeers.
• 52:42
  Speaker 2: Evan Carter forty two hundred LEFTY think he takes one
• 52:45
