- 0:01Speaker 1: Yep. Inside I want to kill myself. We are on
- 0:05Speaker 1: OWN seven run over the last two days after tonight
- 0:08Speaker 1: it was just complete bullshit. So that's that's I'm gonna
- 0:11Speaker 1: start off this show horrible Sunday one and five. I
- 0:15Speaker 1: don't even know what to tell you about that. I
- 0:18Speaker 1: just don't want to do this anymore. I have never
- 0:20Speaker 1: seen anything like this. Man with the slump continuing, two
- 0:25Speaker 1: straight losses, not a good day at all. Own four
- 0:28Speaker 1: that have not had a good season. Man with wookends
- 0:33Speaker 1: the slump that I'm on, and the slump continues. I've
- 0:37Speaker 1: reached into peak. Actually, I'm going to burn my browins
- 0:42Speaker 1: hat Man, I don't know what is going on with
- 0:44Speaker 1: the bruins arch hape? Is that what it is? I
- 0:47Speaker 1: don't even know it's It's March ninth, I think who
- 0:50Speaker 1: even knows? Man, I don't know what day is anymore.
- 0:53Speaker 1: But I don't even know what data is anymore. Man,
- 0:55Speaker 1: back with you after the worst day that I can
- 0:58Speaker 1: possibly have, back to you as I always am until
- 1:02Speaker 1: I die at least oh and two. Yesterday and yesterday
- 1:06Speaker 1: did not go well for me. Own five the worst
- 1:10Speaker 1: month that I've ever had in my eighteen years doing this.
- 1:13Speaker 1: I don't know what to even tell you about this anymore.
- 1:15Speaker 1: To the slumpers, the slump discontinuous, the slump continues. Somebody
- 1:21Speaker 1: fucking kill me, please. I don't even know what I
- 1:24Speaker 1: should do at this point other than potentially end it all.
- 1:33Speaker 1: What's up, everybody, It's Toad. I am back with you
- 1:36Speaker 1: for better off Dad Friday. It's August now, August first.
- 1:41Speaker 1: July was not a good month on the show. Not
- 1:44Speaker 1: that I've actually been betting much of anything, as I've
- 1:46Speaker 1: been pointing out, trying to save money or you know,
- 1:51Speaker 1: get to a point where I have more money that's
- 1:54Speaker 1: liquid and then maybe start doing this again and we
- 1:56Speaker 1: will see. But July, if you've been tracking, it was
- 2:00Speaker 1: the second losing month of the year for me. Not
- 2:02Speaker 1: as bad as March, though, but still down on the
- 2:05Speaker 1: year now because of July. Fuck July, not Eric July.
- 2:09Speaker 1: I like that guy. Thanks for everybody who hung out
- 2:12Speaker 1: last night with an episode of Bald that I did
- 2:15Speaker 1: with Clint. If you miss that, you can go check
- 2:17Speaker 1: it out. Clint Russell from Liberty Lockdown. We talked NFL
- 2:21Speaker 1: season predictions. I gave him sort of the low down
- 2:24Speaker 1: and all the off season changes that have happened. I
- 2:27Speaker 1: also I shaved everything to get ready for ball. That
- 2:30Speaker 1: was like, well, I gotta be bald for bald. And
- 2:32Speaker 1: then I went to shave my face and I had
- 2:34Speaker 1: the razor on the wrong setting. I'm like, oh, fuck something.
- 2:37Speaker 1: So I started at least I started with the side burn.
- 2:40Speaker 1: So I'm like, well, I have to leave something on
- 2:41Speaker 1: the chin, man, because I do not look good completely shad.
- 2:44Speaker 1: It looked like a big fat baby. So I'm like,
- 2:47Speaker 1: all right, well, I'll just shave the beard down to like,
- 2:50Speaker 1: you know, have kind of an extended goat sea. I'm like, yeah,
- 2:52Speaker 1: all right, this looks all right. We'll just leave it
- 2:54Speaker 1: like that for now. Hopefully it's not terrible. Maybe I
- 2:57Speaker 1: look like I don't know, Pete Kenos or something. All Right, Yesterday,
- 3:03Speaker 1: as I said losing day on the show, I apologize
- 3:05Speaker 1: for that. Tampa Bay Pepio was just awful. Stroman out
- 3:09Speaker 1: pitched him. The game entered into a rain delay, which
- 3:12Speaker 1: I think kind of hurt Tampa actually a little bit,
- 3:14Speaker 1: because they had a little bit of momentum. I know
- 3:16Speaker 1: they were losing the game, but they had runners on
- 3:19Speaker 1: the corners in the top of the fifth I believe,
- 3:21Speaker 1: so they at least had a chance to maybe do
- 3:23Speaker 1: some damage there. But yeah, that was a loser, Tampa Bay.
- 3:26Speaker 1: Fuck that. We're gonna move on to today. I do
- 3:28Speaker 1: have one full game total in one full game side
- 3:32Speaker 1: both in Major League Baseball today, as all the teams
- 3:35Speaker 1: are playing again today. Speaking of baseball, not a fan
- 3:39Speaker 1: of the Red Sox trade deadline moves. Man, I don't
- 3:42Speaker 1: like it at all. They got Steven Motts or Matts,
- 3:46Speaker 1: Matt's Motts, however you pronounce. I mean, he's a decent reliever,
- 3:49Speaker 1: but he's in his thirties. They got him over from
- 3:52Speaker 1: Saint Louis. But to do so, they traded Blade Jordans
- 3:56Speaker 1: Blade Is Jordan, some stupid name whatever. But he's actually
- 3:59Speaker 1: a really good hitting first basement and the Red Sox
- 4:03Speaker 1: traded that guy away. So I don't love that deal.
- 4:06Speaker 1: But the Red Sox, I mean really, actually, the Red
- 4:08Speaker 1: Sox kind of need a good hitting first basement too,
- 4:11Speaker 1: so that kind of didn't make sense to me. Although,
- 4:14Speaker 1: of course a lot of different guys can kind of
- 4:15Speaker 1: move to first base because it's the easiest position to
- 4:18Speaker 1: learn how to field pretty much. Then they also they
- 4:21Speaker 1: made one trade actually yesterday, which was to get what
- 4:26Speaker 1: the hell did the Oh they got Dustin May, which
- 4:28Speaker 1: as if you watch my show, you know I'm not
- 4:30Speaker 1: a fan of that guy. He sucks Dustin May over
- 4:32Speaker 1: from the Dodgers. Not impressed by that guy at all.
- 4:36Speaker 1: I don't know what they plan on doing with him. Like, nope,
- 4:38Speaker 1: he's gonna be the last guy in the Red Sox
- 4:40Speaker 1: starting rotation. Now, okay, if you say so, I guess.
- 4:44Speaker 1: I mean, he's gonna fit right in with all their
- 4:47Speaker 1: other shitty starters. It's basically Garrett Crochet Beao actually started
- 4:52Speaker 1: to pitch well and then everybody else just blows. So
- 4:55Speaker 1: like I mean, now they have two of the Dodgers
- 4:57Speaker 1: starters over here who just both blow and May, so
- 5:01Speaker 1: that's just great. And to get May, they traded some
- 5:04Speaker 1: prospect I've never heard of and Tibbs, who was one
- 5:06Speaker 1: of the guys basically the best player they got over
- 5:09Speaker 1: in the Dever's trade. And Tibbs is a good hitting
- 5:13Speaker 1: outfielder man. But at least from the Red Sox perspective,
- 5:17Speaker 1: at least the Red Sox do have a lot of outfielders,
- 5:20Speaker 1: so that kind of made a little bit more sense.
- 5:21Speaker 1: But to get that little out of him. I don't
- 5:24Speaker 1: get it, man, I really don't get it. Terrible terrible deals.
- 5:27Speaker 1: In my opinion, it would have been a lot better
- 5:29Speaker 1: if the Red Sox made zero trades at all. They
- 5:31Speaker 1: would be better off. Like, just stand Pat, I mean,
- 5:34Speaker 1: you're not gonna win this year, dude. I know you're
- 5:36Speaker 1: fighting for the wildcard right now. You're not gonna win.
- 5:39Speaker 1: You got a young core, you're building it right now.
- 5:43Speaker 1: This Red Sox team could be good in the next
- 5:45Speaker 1: few years. That's what they should do. But I mean,
- 5:47Speaker 1: I'm a Red Sox fan. I'm getting autistic about it.
- 5:50Speaker 1: You guys don't want to hear me rant about the
- 5:51Speaker 1: Red Sox. We got a lot of stuff going on
- 5:54Speaker 1: today on the card, so let's get into it. I mean,
- 5:57Speaker 1: I'm gonna do the rundown here. Let's do it. Let's
- 6:00Speaker 1: remember bring up the graphic. WNBA is up first. I
- 6:03Speaker 1: don't have a play in the WNBA, but I will
- 6:06Speaker 1: give out a couple of leans. I guess. I think
- 6:08Speaker 1: there's one decent lean in the WNBA that I still
- 6:11Speaker 1: don't really want to deal with. But Phoenix is at Atlanta.
- 6:14Speaker 1: All these games are actually in the evening, Atlanta coming
- 6:18Speaker 1: off winning against Dallas at Dallas, and now they're coming
- 6:21Speaker 1: back home again. So they return over from a long
- 6:24Speaker 1: road trip. Lost that game, the Doldo game, which I
- 6:27Speaker 1: gave out Golden State on the show as a play
- 6:29Speaker 1: Golden State did it get it done? Atlanta went on
- 6:32Speaker 1: the road beat Dallas. Now they're back home again against
- 6:36Speaker 1: the Phoenix team that they actually just beat on the road.
- 6:38Speaker 1: And with all this back and forth for Atlanta going
- 6:40Speaker 1: all over the place, travel spot doesn't look that great
- 6:43Speaker 1: to me for Atlanta, and it is a little bit
- 6:45Speaker 1: of a road revenge spot for Phoenix here. Phoenix, though,
- 6:48Speaker 1: they're playing a fourth straight road game, and I think
- 6:50Speaker 1: it's been in kind of quick succession too. Actually maybe
- 6:53Speaker 1: it hasn't been. I looked earlier this morning. Yeah, they've
- 6:57Speaker 1: had a few days off in there, so actually they
- 6:58Speaker 1: haven't had that like jam pass to a schedule. There.
- 7:01Speaker 1: Still not the greatest spot for Phoenix, but I think
- 7:03Speaker 1: the spot is probably a little bit better for Phoenix.
- 7:05Speaker 1: The line is up from one and a half to
- 7:07Speaker 1: three and a half, Phoenix being the road favorite here.
- 7:09Speaker 1: I don't really disagree with that. Liberty at Connecticut, I mean,
- 7:15Speaker 1: this is one of the best teams in the league
- 7:17Speaker 1: against one of the worst or the worst Connecticut. Connecticut
- 7:20Speaker 1: just lost again by a lot to Seattle. They're just
- 7:23Speaker 1: staying at home. Those of the travel spot probably a
- 7:26Speaker 1: little bit better for Connecticut. Liberty are traveling back in
- 7:30Speaker 1: from Dallas and Minnesota, so this is kind of close
- 7:33Speaker 1: to a return home spot almost because Connecticut is not
- 7:35Speaker 1: that far away from New York. It is technically a
- 7:38Speaker 1: third straight road game Liberty three straight losses, but they're
- 7:41Speaker 1: also coming off the big rematch of the finals from
- 7:45Speaker 1: last year, and Minnesota got the revenge I mentioned. I
- 7:47Speaker 1: liked Minnesota in that game, but they didn't actually cover
- 7:49Speaker 1: the spread they won didn't cover. Still a huge game
- 7:53Speaker 1: for both teams, So I might look to fade Minnesota
- 7:56Speaker 1: man in the letdown spot tomorrow. They're playing tomorrow against
- 7:59Speaker 1: Las Vegas, I guess, so we'll see if that becomes
- 8:01Speaker 1: a play of mine, but it's definitely possible. But the Liberty, Yeah,
- 8:05Speaker 1: coming out of a big game there, the spot is
- 8:08Speaker 1: worse for the Liberty here. But do I really want
- 8:11Speaker 1: to play Connecticut? I mean no, not really. A Liberty
- 8:14Speaker 1: up from ten to eleven and a half here. I mean,
- 8:16Speaker 1: it's probably too big of a line, but Connecticut is
- 8:20Speaker 1: really really bad, so don't want it. Golden State at Chicago.
- 8:25Speaker 1: Golden State played yesterday actually and they actually won again,
- 8:28Speaker 1: another road upset at Washington. Now they're playing I believe,
- 8:32Speaker 1: a third straight road game now going out to Chicago,
- 8:36Speaker 1: or maybe it's a fourth straight road game even now, Yeah,
- 8:39Speaker 1: my apologies, Yeah, it's a fourth straight road game. And
- 8:41Speaker 1: actually I looked at this earlier. It's four games, it's
- 8:44Speaker 1: six days, and it's actually five games in the last
- 8:46Speaker 1: eight days in all in different cities. So it's a
- 8:49Speaker 1: very difficult spot for Golden State here, especially on top
- 8:52Speaker 1: of a back to back, on top of back to
- 8:54Speaker 1: back upsets as well. This is the spot that I
- 8:57Speaker 1: think is if you're gonna play anything in WNBA today,
- 9:01Speaker 1: I think this is the spot take the points of Chicago.
- 9:05Speaker 1: The problem that I have with that is, even though
- 9:06Speaker 1: Golden State does have that one key injury to Caylea Thornton,
- 9:10Speaker 1: who is one of their best players, she's done for
- 9:12Speaker 1: the season. Chicago has a bunch of injuries of their own. Man,
- 9:16Speaker 1: it looks like Angel Reese is gonna miss this game.
- 9:19Speaker 1: Two we should probably help their shooting, to be honest,
- 9:22Speaker 1: but they have five players listed on the injury report.
- 9:26Speaker 1: It looks like three of them are game time decisions.
- 9:28Speaker 1: So this is something to definitely keep an eye on
- 9:30Speaker 1: for Chicago. But I think the spot does set up
- 9:32Speaker 1: better for Chicago. I would take the points with them
- 9:35Speaker 1: if I was gonna do anything. And it's tempting actually,
- 9:38Speaker 1: because Chicago did just get blasted at Washington. I know
- 9:42Speaker 1: they've lost a ton of games in a row, so
- 9:44Speaker 1: it's really not tempting from like the public's perspectives and
- 9:47Speaker 1: want anything to do with Chicago. And they've lost most
- 9:50Speaker 1: of these games by horrendous margins too. They've been horrible
- 9:54Speaker 1: dealing with injuries. Plus they're a bad team on top
- 9:57Speaker 1: of that. But the spot looks right for it, man.
- 10:01Speaker 1: And as I was about to say, on top of
- 10:03Speaker 1: all that, Chicago just beat Washington on the road, or
- 10:06Speaker 1: Chicago Susan got beaten badly by Washington on the road.
- 10:10Speaker 1: Golden State just beat Washington on the road. So people,
- 10:13Speaker 1: I think are gonna look at that and think this
- 10:14Speaker 1: is really easy. You just lay the points with Golden State, right,
- 10:17Speaker 1: But it's down from six to five and a half here.
- 10:21Speaker 1: You know, I'm tempted if we think Chicago's gonna have
- 10:24Speaker 1: a lot of these players actually playing. Actually, let me
- 10:27Speaker 1: see if it's an injury spot. If Angel Reese, if
- 10:30Speaker 1: it's her first game out and she's you know, kind
- 10:32Speaker 1: of that star player missing, if that makes it an
- 10:36Speaker 1: injured player spot, I think I will actually do this.
- 10:38Speaker 1: Let me look at this game here. She did play
- 10:41Speaker 1: against Chicago, and she was horrendous yet again, six for
- 10:44Speaker 1: sixteen from the field, twenty two points though Man thirteen
- 10:49Speaker 1: rebounds is goo. She got a double double, but she
- 10:51Speaker 1: took a shit ton of shots and missed the vast
- 10:54Speaker 1: majority of them, which is typical. But yeah, if this
- 10:57Speaker 1: is gonna be her first game out, you know, but
- 11:01Speaker 1: I think maybe we should do this. I'm looking at
- 11:03Speaker 1: this right now. I'm looking at the box score here.
- 11:07Speaker 1: Washington shot absurd in that game. Man fifty from the field,
- 11:11Speaker 1: forty one point from three, pretty major outlier there. You know,
- 11:18Speaker 1: should we add the WNBA play last minute here, Chicago Sky,
- 11:23Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna do it. You know, it's an
- 11:26Speaker 1: injured player spot with Angel Reese out, and again I'm
- 11:29Speaker 1: not even sure that that's really a bad thing for them.
- 11:32Speaker 1: We'll call it five and a half. We'll see WNBA.
- 11:35Speaker 1: There you go, Chicago Sky plus the points, even though
- 11:39Speaker 1: the last time I gave out the Sky did not
- 11:41Speaker 1: work out well. But that's what we'll do, and we'll
- 11:44Speaker 1: do that, and I am up in the WNBA this
- 11:48Speaker 1: year though, so WNBA has not gone that poorly for me.
- 11:51Speaker 1: Indiana and Dallas here should be the big matchup between
- 11:54Speaker 1: Caitlin Clark and Page Becker's, of course, but Caitlin Clark
- 11:57Speaker 1: is still injured. I have no idea when she's coming back,
- 12:00Speaker 1: so Caitlyn Clark will not be playing. Dallas just had
- 12:04Speaker 1: a close game against Atlanta, big game, coming off a
- 12:08Speaker 1: big game against the Liberty, So they're actually playing a
- 12:10Speaker 1: bunch of games in a row that are big games.
- 12:13Speaker 1: So it seems like they are kind of keeping their
- 12:15Speaker 1: level of play up though, But how long can they
- 12:17Speaker 1: really do that? And how seriously are they gonna take
- 12:20Speaker 1: Indiana without Kaitlin Clark. I don't know, because they did
- 12:22Speaker 1: lose by nineteen points at Indiana not that long agoing
- 12:25Speaker 1: I don't think Clark was there for that game either.
- 12:28Speaker 1: She's missed most of these games at the very least. Oh,
- 12:30Speaker 1: she did play that game, my mistake, so Clark actually
- 12:33Speaker 1: was involved in that game. But still, Dallas, maybe they
- 12:37Speaker 1: will show up, just because still it is Indiana. Indiana's
- 12:40Speaker 1: on a three game win streak even without Clark. They
- 12:43Speaker 1: did just win against Phoenix, and now they're starting a
- 12:46Speaker 1: new road trip or at least going out on the
- 12:48Speaker 1: road after that home win. Fairly big win for Indiana,
- 12:51Speaker 1: but starting a road trip with momentum, will they be
- 12:54Speaker 1: focused though to play this Dallas team? It isn't really
- 12:57Speaker 1: that good. I don't know, Indiana's laying four points on
- 12:59Speaker 1: the road. It's a tough call home man, that game, Yeah,
- 13:05Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know what I would want
- 13:07Speaker 1: to do with that. It seems like maybe a slight
- 13:09Speaker 1: lean too, taking the points at home. But I really
- 13:10Speaker 1: don't have much of a field for that game at all.
- 13:12Speaker 1: And then LA at Seattle, LA coming off a loss
- 13:16Speaker 1: to Vegas, and that might hang them over me because
- 13:18Speaker 1: LA was hot. They'd won five games in a row
- 13:21Speaker 1: and that was a letdown spot. I mean, they had
- 13:23Speaker 1: just beaten the Liberty and they returned home. I think
- 13:26Speaker 1: I mentioned that as a lean on my show. I
- 13:28Speaker 1: didn't give it out as a play though, which maybe
- 13:30Speaker 1: I should have because I had that one correct on
- 13:32Speaker 1: Las Vegas. It was a bad spot for la man
- 13:35Speaker 1: returning home off with a big win over the Liberty,
- 13:38Speaker 1: returning cross country bad spot. Now they're going back out
- 13:41Speaker 1: on the road after that loss. I could see it
- 13:44Speaker 1: going both ways. Man. If they stayed at home, I
- 13:46Speaker 1: would probably say, maybe they have a chance to bounce
- 13:50Speaker 1: back here because that second game back home after you
- 13:52Speaker 1: have a bad game, the first game back you tend
- 13:55Speaker 1: to bounce back a little bit more easily. But out
- 13:56Speaker 1: they're going out on the road, I'm not so sure. Man.
- 13:59Speaker 1: They could be hungover. If you lose a long win
- 14:01Speaker 1: streak like that, sometimes it does hang you over. Seattle's
- 14:05Speaker 1: a pretty good team, though, so it's not like they're
- 14:06Speaker 1: not gonna be focused on Seattle. So I think they
- 14:09Speaker 1: will show up for a game against Seattle. Seattle is
- 14:12Speaker 1: returning home, so it's not a good spot for Seattle either.
- 14:15Speaker 1: They were just out east and they're returning home from
- 14:17Speaker 1: the East Coast. They played a three game roa trap
- 14:20Speaker 1: with two games basically on the East Coast. Returning from
- 14:23Speaker 1: winning two of those three and beating Connecticut, which is
- 14:26Speaker 1: not very impressive, but the return home spot never really
- 14:29Speaker 1: that good a spot, and especially they're playing a team
- 14:31Speaker 1: that has a worse record than they have, So I
- 14:33Speaker 1: don't think it's a great spot for Seattle either. And
- 14:36Speaker 1: the line has moved against Seattle down from five and
- 14:38Speaker 1: a half to five, but neither team I would say,
- 14:42Speaker 1: is really in a particularly great spot of I guess
- 14:45Speaker 1: I would agree with that line movement. I do think
- 14:47Speaker 1: the spot is a little bit worse for Seattle, could
- 14:49Speaker 1: potentially be a bounce back for LA. So that's the
- 14:52Speaker 1: way I would lean in that game. Jay MANE, what's up, Man,
- 14:55Speaker 1: Thanks for hanging out again. Yeah, thanks Man, good to see.
- 14:58Speaker 1: I'm gonna be switching over to baseball right now. Man,
- 15:02Speaker 1: here we go major League baseball. We had a really
- 15:05Speaker 1: short baseball board yesterday. Today that is not the case.
- 15:07Speaker 1: We have a full baseball slate today because it is Friday.
- 15:11Speaker 1: We have some undecided pitchers here, and I don't know
- 15:14Speaker 1: if any of the pitchers have been decided, but it
- 15:16Speaker 1: looks like Toronto, Boston my Red Sox, White Sox, and
- 15:22Speaker 1: Arizona and the A's both teams in that game. It
- 15:25Speaker 1: looks like they have not decided on a starter. Yet
- 15:28Speaker 1: we'll start with the afternoon. Atlanta and Cincinnati. I mean,
- 15:31Speaker 1: these teams they played last night in that crazy game
- 15:35Speaker 1: where Atlanta had the huge lead, Atlanta blew the lead,
- 15:37Speaker 1: and I think there were sixteen runs scored in a
- 15:40Speaker 1: single inning in this game if I remember correctly. Yeah,
- 15:44Speaker 1: in the eighth inning, Atlanta scored eight runs to take
- 15:48Speaker 1: a huge lead, and then they took an eight run lead.
- 15:52Speaker 1: And then this Atlanta bullpen, which is the bullpen that's
- 15:54Speaker 1: blown the biggest leads in baseball this year, blowing and
- 15:57Speaker 1: losing a six run lead when I gave out Atlanta
- 16:00Speaker 1: as a play on the show way back in the day.
- 16:03Speaker 1: And now they do it again and they blow the
- 16:05Speaker 1: eight run lead immediately to the Reds. But Atlanta still
- 16:08Speaker 1: wound up winning the game last night in a tenth inning.
- 16:11Speaker 1: Absolute madness. In this game, absolute insanity. A lot of
- 16:14Speaker 1: bullpen usage, five relievers for both teams, so the bullpen's
- 16:19Speaker 1: not in great shape coming into this game, so somebody
- 16:21Speaker 1: to keep in mind here. And a quick turnaround times,
- 16:25Speaker 1: so these teams have not had that much time to rest,
- 16:27Speaker 1: which could mean that the hitting will fall through a
- 16:29Speaker 1: little bit here because they have to play now in
- 16:30Speaker 1: the afternoon after that game last night that went extras.
- 16:34Speaker 1: But it doesn't look like it sets up well for
- 16:37Speaker 1: the bullpens in this game. And I don't like at
- 16:40Speaker 1: least one of these two starters here either. Bryce Elder
- 16:43Speaker 1: not a fan if you haven't guessed by now, or
- 16:45Speaker 1: you haven't figured that out on this show. His numbers
- 16:48Speaker 1: are absolutely atrocious six point two ninety one point six' one.
- 16:53Speaker 1: Whip he's twenty six years old and he's pitching like An.
- 16:56Speaker 1: ELDER i mean he might he might as well be
- 16:58Speaker 1: forty six with numbers like. This his numbers suck both
- 17:02Speaker 1: home and. Away it doesn't even really matter pitching in
- 17:05Speaker 1: a pitcher friendly park, here and he's not in good
- 17:07Speaker 1: form this, month with a seven point nine to ONE
- 17:10Speaker 1: era in four, starts sixteen to eleven strikeout walk, ratio
- 17:14Speaker 1: three or more walks than three of the four. Starts last,
- 17:17Speaker 1: start he gave up eight runs to this not Good
- 17:21Speaker 1: texas offense four walks in that game as well to three.
- 17:25Speaker 1: Strikeouts elder is not pitching well man at, all so
- 17:29Speaker 1: there's no way that he's. Trustworthy the numbers against The
- 17:32Speaker 1: reds are not horrendous in twenty two at bats is
- 17:34Speaker 1: a small sample size nine, strikeouts one, walk two seventy
- 17:37Speaker 1: three average six sixty EIGHT, ops BUT i see no
- 17:41Speaker 1: way of Trusting elder in this. Game man and Then
- 17:44Speaker 1: Brady singer on the other side obviously is the better
- 17:47Speaker 1: of the two, pitchers but his numbers are not terrific
- 17:49Speaker 1: four point SIXTY, ra one point three to THREE. Whip
- 17:52Speaker 1: he is significantly better at, home though more than two
- 17:56Speaker 1: runs better at home on THE era three point six y,
- 17:59Speaker 1: nine even though it's a hitter of friendly. Stadium he
- 18:01Speaker 1: is in better form because he is coming up one
- 18:04Speaker 1: really good start Against tampa eight to one strike out walk.
- 18:08Speaker 1: Ratio his strike out walk ratio has still been good
- 18:10Speaker 1: this month twenty five to. Seven, really he just got
- 18:13Speaker 1: wrecked in one start At washington two starts to, go
- 18:17Speaker 1: giving up seven runs and two and a third. Innings
- 18:20Speaker 1: his performance has not been that bad this month, otherwise
- 18:23Speaker 1: so that could have been a bit of an outlier
- 18:25Speaker 1: because he did bounce back very. Nicely but he does
- 18:28Speaker 1: not have good numbers against The braves and sixty four
- 18:31Speaker 1: at bats to eighty one batting, average nine to fifty TWO,
- 18:34Speaker 1: ops six home, runs allowed two From, murphy two From.
- 18:38Speaker 1: Olsen player prop potential There murphy five for eleven with
- 18:42Speaker 1: two doubles in the two home runs And olsen three
- 18:44Speaker 1: for nine at the two on runs and three. Walks
- 18:47Speaker 1: could look for those, guys maybe hits plus runs plus.
- 18:49Speaker 1: RBIs But, singer based on the fact that his matchup
- 18:54Speaker 1: numbers aren't really that, good my lean on this game
- 18:57Speaker 1: would be to the. Over it's sitting at, nine heavily
- 19:01Speaker 1: juiced to the. Over right, now it looks Like cincinnati's
- 19:03Speaker 1: dropped a little bit on the money. LINE i don't
- 19:04Speaker 1: see any percentages yet because it is. Early i'm doing
- 19:07Speaker 1: this show a little bit. Earlier right now down for
- 19:09Speaker 1: minus one thirty five to minus one thirty one on
- 19:11Speaker 1: the money. Line there's no way THAT i would Trust.
- 19:14Speaker 1: ATLANTA i, mean IF i was looking at a, SIDE
- 19:16Speaker 1: i would probably look To. CINCINNATI i guess just in
- 19:19Speaker 1: the first five. Innings that just isolate the starting pitching,
- 19:22Speaker 1: matchup BECAUSE i don't know what the hell is gonna
- 19:23Speaker 1: happen with the. Bullpens although you could argue that The
- 19:27Speaker 1: bullpens are about even and maybe That. Cincinnati you could
- 19:31Speaker 1: maybe argue for full Games, cincinnati but first five. INNINGS
- 19:35Speaker 1: i do Think singer probably does have the edge Over elder.
- 19:38Speaker 1: Slightly he's the better. Pitcher BUT i don't like the
- 19:40Speaker 1: pitching matchup numbers at. All SO i think the, over
- 19:43Speaker 1: including these you, know unrested bullpens and aren't really that good,
- 19:46Speaker 1: anyway and two pretty questionable starters, here that's the way
- 19:50Speaker 1: THAT i would look would be the over in that.
- 19:52Speaker 1: Game and you might have to go over nine and
- 19:54Speaker 1: a half at this, point hopefully not though if you
- 19:56Speaker 1: can get over nine at like around minus one, twenty
- 20:00Speaker 1: i'd probably do. That but even the nine and a
- 20:01Speaker 1: HALF i think would probably still be the best way
- 20:03Speaker 1: to look in that. Game the other afternoon game Is
- 20:06Speaker 1: baltimore at The. Cubs because It's Wrigley, field of course
- 20:09Speaker 1: we get these weird afternoon games At. Wrigley these teams
- 20:12Speaker 1: were both off. YESTERDAY i mean almost every team was off.
- 20:15Speaker 1: Yesterday cubs coming off a big series Against, milwaukee, though
- 20:20Speaker 1: and they were turning home from a road triple though
- 20:22Speaker 1: of Course milwaukee To chicago very short, travel though it
- 20:25Speaker 1: wasn't really much of a road trip because they were
- 20:27Speaker 1: In chicago and Then, Milwaukee SO i don't really know
- 20:30Speaker 1: if this counts as a road trip, return SO i
- 20:32Speaker 1: don't really think it's gonna be that much of a distraction.
- 20:35Speaker 1: Spot but it could be a letdown spot, anyway, man
- 20:38Speaker 1: or hangover, spot because when you're coming off playing Against,
- 20:41Speaker 1: milwaukee who's the team you're fighting with in THE Nl
- 20:44Speaker 1: central here you just beat them ten to, Three are
- 20:47Speaker 1: you really gonna focus on this Bad baltimore team was
- 20:50Speaker 1: not even in your? League probably. Not so it looks
- 20:53Speaker 1: like a bad spot for The cubs to. Me baltimore
- 20:57Speaker 1: not the greatest spot for them. Either, Necessarily baltimore was
- 21:00Speaker 1: actually on a five game win streak and they were
- 21:02Speaker 1: going for a sweep Of. Toronto would have been a
- 21:05Speaker 1: huge Sweep toronto currently leading THE Al. East baltimore lost
- 21:09Speaker 1: the last game, close nine to, eight so that could
- 21:12Speaker 1: hang them over into the next. Game, Man but they
- 21:14Speaker 1: are starting a road trip and it is The, cubs
- 21:16Speaker 1: so they might still be focused going out on the
- 21:19Speaker 1: road to start a road trip against The. Cubs SO
- 21:21Speaker 1: i do think the spot is still worse for The
- 21:23Speaker 1: cubs as far as like who's going to be, Focused
- 21:26Speaker 1: AND i would say Probably baltimore has the more trustworthy
- 21:29Speaker 1: of the two starters. Here. Too cubs have the better
- 21:32Speaker 1: bullpen and obviously have the better, offense and The, CUBS i,
- 21:35Speaker 1: believe are pretty good at hitting at home as. Well so, Really,
- 21:40Speaker 1: baltimore if they have any advantage, here it would be the.
- 21:43Speaker 1: Spot but also, SPECIFICALLY i think the starting pitching might
- 21:46Speaker 1: be in their Favorite Trevor. Rodgers. MAN i keep pointing
- 21:49Speaker 1: out HOW i did not like his numbers and he
- 21:51Speaker 1: was On. MIAMI i don't like his numbers On TRIPLE
- 21:54Speaker 1: a this, year but you can't really argue with his
- 21:56Speaker 1: numbers On. Baltimore so, far he continues to do well
- 22:00Speaker 1: one point four to NINE, era point seventy nine whip but,
- 22:03Speaker 1: man at some, POINT i don't think he can continue.
- 22:05Speaker 1: This but he's pitching. Well he's been a little bit
- 22:07Speaker 1: worse on the, road but two point three SIX era
- 22:10Speaker 1: is still really. Good he's in really good form right.
- 22:12Speaker 1: Now still one point zero THREE r in four starts this.
- 22:16Speaker 1: Month baltimore won three of those. Starts he got the
- 22:19Speaker 1: win and all Three baltimore has won five of his
- 22:22Speaker 1: last six. Starts he's given up two or fewer earned
- 22:26Speaker 1: runs in every single one of those starts this. Month
- 22:29Speaker 1: twenty two to seven, strikeout walk. Ratio last, outing Dominated
- 22:33Speaker 1: colorado for seven, innings one, hit, shutout five, strikeouts one.
- 22:37Speaker 1: WALK i mean, again it Is, colorado so it's not
- 22:41Speaker 1: that impressive of an. Offense he really is not faced
- 22:43Speaker 1: that impressive of an offense. Yet so that's the one
- 22:46Speaker 1: thing he's stepping way up in class to face The cubs,
- 22:49Speaker 1: here because he's faced really one good offense so, far
- 22:52Speaker 1: The Red sox in his first, outing and then since
- 22:55Speaker 1: then it's Been tampa, Twice texas, Twice, Colorado miami In,
- 22:58Speaker 1: atlanta so not really that much of a gauntlet For.
- 23:01Speaker 1: Rogers so at some POINT i do think he's gonna pitch.
- 23:03Speaker 1: Worse The cubs have twenty at bats against, him only
- 23:06Speaker 1: three hitters have seen him, before but they are nine
- 23:09Speaker 1: for twenty off, him a four point fifty, average one
- 23:12Speaker 1: thousand and two seventy two oh ps with swanshim with
- 23:14Speaker 1: a home run off him as, well and three walks
- 23:17Speaker 1: to four strikeouts for The. Cubs So rogers doesn't particularly
- 23:21Speaker 1: match up well against The, cubs but the majority of
- 23:24Speaker 1: their lineup hasn't Seen rogers, before so it's a real
- 23:26Speaker 1: mix where The cubs are good at hitting The cubs
- 23:29Speaker 1: hitters that have seen, him have hit him, well but
- 23:32Speaker 1: the rest of The cubs lineup has not seen him,
- 23:34Speaker 1: before so some might be at a little bit of a.
- 23:35Speaker 1: Disadvantage so it's a weird mix. There Cad horton espicially
- 23:39Speaker 1: for The, cubs AND i would trust him less Than,
- 23:41Speaker 1: rogers just based on the way that they've been. Pitching
- 23:44Speaker 1: three point six SEVENTY ra for him not, bad but
- 23:46Speaker 1: one point three to one whip doesn't really inspire too
- 23:50Speaker 1: much confidence in. Me although he's been better at home
- 23:52Speaker 1: two point one to TWO era And, wrigley his numbers
- 23:55Speaker 1: this month have not been that bad though one point
- 23:57Speaker 1: five TWO ra is obviously. Good seventeen to eight strike
- 24:01Speaker 1: a walk ratio is a little bit. Iffy but three
- 24:04Speaker 1: of the four starts this month have been shutouts where
- 24:07Speaker 1: he went at least five to two thirds in all,
- 24:09Speaker 1: three although the only one against a good offense was
- 24:12Speaker 1: The Red. SOX i, mean the other Starts, Cleveland Minnesota White.
- 24:15Speaker 1: SOX i mean, again he's not facing a gauntlet, either
- 24:18Speaker 1: so he's not that trustworthy. EITHER i mean when he
- 24:20Speaker 1: faced good, offenses he didn't do particularly well against The
- 24:24Speaker 1: mets And houston really lit him up and those were
- 24:26Speaker 1: the two best offenses that he. Faced seattle fairly good
- 24:29Speaker 1: offense as. Well he Had detroit and he didn't do
- 24:31Speaker 1: well in those starts. Either but of course he is
- 24:35Speaker 1: Facing baltimore, here who are not really that good of an,
- 24:38Speaker 1: offense And baltimore has actually never Faced Kate horton, before
- 24:42Speaker 1: so Maybe horton does have a little bit more of
- 24:45Speaker 1: an edge Against baltimore. Here SO i, mean this is
- 24:47Speaker 1: a stayaway game for me, though, Obviously BUT i, mean
- 24:50Speaker 1: if you want to lean into the situation, here potentially
- 24:54Speaker 1: maybe you could look To. BALTIMORE i would go if
- 24:57Speaker 1: you're gonna Go baltimore money, LINE i would go first five.
- 24:59Speaker 1: Innings i'm not sure it's that great a play, though
- 25:02Speaker 1: BUT i think if you isolate the starting pitching, Matchup
- 25:04Speaker 1: rogers has pitched better Than howart and so, far but
- 25:07Speaker 1: STILL i don't know if we could trust either of.
- 25:08Speaker 1: Them it's a very low, total which means the wind
- 25:11Speaker 1: is blowing in off of A Lake michigan, there BECAUSE
- 25:14Speaker 1: i don't see how the total would be seven and
- 25:16Speaker 1: a half juice to the under with this pitching. Matchup,
- 25:19Speaker 1: Otherwise cubs up for minus one forty five to minus
- 25:23Speaker 1: one forty. Eight on the money, line you're always paying
- 25:24Speaker 1: a bit of a price for The, cubs and given the,
- 25:27Speaker 1: SPOT i think it's probably a little bit better of
- 25:30Speaker 1: an idea to look Towards baltimore in this, game but
- 25:33Speaker 1: it's certainly not something THAT i would want to actually.
- 25:35Speaker 1: Do and keeping in mind all these bullpens arrested that
- 25:40Speaker 1: we're talking about, here except for the, game The Atlanta cincinnati,
- 25:43Speaker 1: game The Texas seattle, game Which i'll talk about a bit,
- 25:45Speaker 1: later In tampa And New, york who were both starting new.
- 25:48Speaker 1: Series those are the teams that played. Yesterday detroit At.
- 25:51Speaker 1: Philadelphia interesting, matchup, man and people might hail this as
- 25:56Speaker 1: a Potential World series preview because both teams are doing.
- 25:59Speaker 1: Well detroit starting a road trip with. Momentum they just
- 26:03Speaker 1: swept This arizona team that looks like they're really unfocused
- 26:07Speaker 1: after the trades that their team. Made, MAN i Think
- 26:10Speaker 1: arizona is looking like they're kind of packing it in right.
- 26:12Speaker 1: Now detroit starting the road trip with momentum should be
- 26:16Speaker 1: focused for A philadelphia team here looks like a decent
- 26:19Speaker 1: spot to me For. Detroit philadelphia is returning on from
- 26:23Speaker 1: a road trip that took them to The yankees and Then,
- 26:26Speaker 1: chicago so it didn't really take them that far, geographically
- 26:29Speaker 1: and they did lose the series To. Chicago but it
- 26:31Speaker 1: is still return home. Spot AND i always say about
- 26:33Speaker 1: these return home, spots you have to get back to family.
- 26:36Speaker 1: Life it can be a little bit distracting because you've
- 26:38Speaker 1: been away from home for a. Bit this trip maybe
- 26:42Speaker 1: less so because it wasn't that extended of a road,
- 26:44Speaker 1: trip and they're playing a Good detroit, team So philadelphia
- 26:47Speaker 1: might still kind of break through that unfocused aspect of
- 26:51Speaker 1: this and actually show up. Here detroit has the bullpen
- 26:56Speaker 1: advantage Of philadelphia's bullpen is not very, good ALTHOUGH i
- 26:59Speaker 1: Think detroit's actually been kind of falling off a little.
- 27:01Speaker 1: Bit detroit's in the middle of the pack, now but
- 27:03Speaker 1: still better Than, philly who's a bottom tier bullpen like
- 27:07Speaker 1: bottom several starting pitching Matchup Jack flaherty For detroit mediocre
- 27:13Speaker 1: numbers on the season four point five ONE, era one
- 27:16Speaker 1: point two eight whip way worse on the, road though
- 27:20Speaker 1: almost three runs WORSE era wise on the road six
- 27:23Speaker 1: point two to EIGHTY r on the, road even though
- 27:25Speaker 1: he's allowed more home runs at home but way more
- 27:27Speaker 1: innings at, home so he is worse on the, road
- 27:31Speaker 1: but he is pitching a little bit better. Recently this,
- 27:34Speaker 1: month pretty good numbers three point five to FIVE, era
- 27:37Speaker 1: thirty seven to, nine strike out, walk, right, Sure so
- 27:40Speaker 1: WHEN i say this, MONTH i Mean. JULY i forget
- 27:42Speaker 1: that we're Starting august, now but in the past, MONTH
- 27:44Speaker 1: i should. Say and he Finished july with a nice
- 27:47Speaker 1: six inning shutout Against. Toronto seven, strikeouts one, walk five hits.
- 27:51Speaker 1: Allowed that was, good and he didn't allow more than
- 27:54Speaker 1: three on runs and any start this. Month he didn't
- 27:56Speaker 1: go deep in The pittsburgh, game AND i don't. KNOW
- 28:00Speaker 1: i don't know why they took him, out to be,
- 28:01Speaker 1: HONEST i don't know if there was any sort of
- 28:02Speaker 1: rain delay in that. Game he like through seventy eight.
- 28:04Speaker 1: Pitches he is coming up That toronto. Gimber he did
- 28:07Speaker 1: throw over one hundred, pitches, though but he has done
- 28:09Speaker 1: that at least once this year Against, cleveland and he
- 28:12Speaker 1: followed that up with a nice shutout performance Against San.
- 28:15Speaker 1: Francisco so he is a. VETERAN i, mean he's used
- 28:17Speaker 1: to throwing pitches like that once in a, while SO
- 28:20Speaker 1: i don't think that's going to affect him that much
- 28:22Speaker 1: here up against Stuff. Philadelphia we gotta Have, god why
- 28:27Speaker 1: CAN'T i? There they? Are this is A i don't.
- 28:31Speaker 1: Know the dropdown was like scrolling off the screen for.
- 28:33Speaker 1: Me Against, Philadelphia flaherty actually has done really well for
- 28:36Speaker 1: the most. Part in fifty six at bats one sixty
- 28:38Speaker 1: one average allowed little bit of a higher six fifty six,
- 28:41Speaker 1: ops which is still not high at, all but higher
- 28:44Speaker 1: than you'd expect with that batting, average because fifteen strikeouts
- 28:48Speaker 1: to eleven walks is not that. Good it's a lot of,
- 28:50Speaker 1: walks but it looks like it's because he pitches Around,
- 28:53Speaker 1: schwarber who does have a home run off, him But
- 28:55Speaker 1: schwarber is only two for twenty three off, him does
- 28:58Speaker 1: have five walks but eight strike, up so he does
- 29:00Speaker 1: still pretty much blow schorebro. Away castellanos is the one
- 29:04Speaker 1: guy that does damage against, him really five for thirteen
- 29:07Speaker 1: with one of those home runs double in two, walks
- 29:10Speaker 1: so he's the guy to really watch out. For But
- 29:12Speaker 1: flarherty does have good numbers Against. Philadelphia he's up against
- 29:16Speaker 1: ron Your, suarez who does have the better numbers Than
- 29:18Speaker 1: flarherty on the. Season BUT i don't think it's been
- 29:21Speaker 1: the better pitcher. Recently AND i told YOU i Think
- 29:23Speaker 1: suarez is a little bit wild for my. Taste he's
- 29:27Speaker 1: a wild man. Man he's too much of a bad
- 29:30Speaker 1: boy for. Me BUT i told, you just LIKE i
- 29:34Speaker 1: said last, YEAR i expected his numbers to get a
- 29:36Speaker 1: bit worse just looking at what he's done throughout his.
- 29:38Speaker 1: Career still has good numbers this season two point five
- 29:42Speaker 1: nine E, ra one point one seven. Whip he's been
- 29:44Speaker 1: worse at home, though four point one FIVE era here
- 29:47Speaker 1: in this. Stadium and this month he's been a little
- 29:50Speaker 1: bit worse four point five to seven E ra or
- 29:52Speaker 1: this past month twenty three to ten strike a walk,
- 29:55Speaker 1: ratio so he has walked a bunch of. Guys he's
- 29:58Speaker 1: walked multiple guys in three of the four. Starts he
- 30:01Speaker 1: is coming off a one hundred and eight pitch outing
- 30:03Speaker 1: where he only lasted five to two, thirds threw a
- 30:06Speaker 1: lot of pitches to get through that Difficult yankees. LINE i,
- 30:09Speaker 1: mean he did pick up a, win, big big start for,
- 30:12Speaker 1: Him so this could, be you, know maybe a little
- 30:15Speaker 1: bit of a let, down maybe regressive spottle that the
- 30:18Speaker 1: know It's, detroit you still focus when your face At.
- 30:20Speaker 1: Detroit his numbers Against detroit are actually not good in
- 30:27Speaker 1: only sixteen at, bats so it's a very small sample,
- 30:29Speaker 1: size but three seventy five average allowed nine to twelve.
- 30:32Speaker 1: Ops So i'm thinking Of flaherty has a little bit
- 30:36Speaker 1: of the upper hand Hereman DETROIT i think is in
- 30:38Speaker 1: the better spot situationally a bit Because philly's returning home
- 30:42Speaker 1: from the road Trip detroit starting a road trip with some. Momentum,
- 30:45Speaker 1: Here detroit has the better overall. PITCHING i think they
- 30:49Speaker 1: might have the advantage of the starting, pitching AND i
- 30:51Speaker 1: think they have the better. BULLPEN i would Give philly
- 30:53Speaker 1: the advantage on the offensive side of Thinks detroit's offense
- 30:56Speaker 1: is really kind of, faltered So philly does have that.
- 30:58Speaker 1: Advantage But philly for minus one forty five to minus
- 31:01Speaker 1: one forty. Eight to me in the, marketplace it looked
- 31:03Speaker 1: like some of the money was coming in On, Philly
- 31:05Speaker 1: BUT i actually don't agree with. IT i THINK i
- 31:07Speaker 1: would lean To, detroit AND i think it would make
- 31:10Speaker 1: sense either first five inning or full, game BECAUSE i
- 31:12Speaker 1: do think they have the bullpen edge as. Well so
- 31:15Speaker 1: my lean would be To detroit on the money line
- 31:17Speaker 1: in that game and just take the shot on that
- 31:20Speaker 1: One milwaukee At. Washington washington is returning on from a road,
- 31:24Speaker 1: trip so they are not in a good spot. Either
- 31:27Speaker 1: they went To minnesota And, houston so again could be
- 31:30Speaker 1: a distraction. Spot although With milwaukee coming to town with
- 31:33Speaker 1: one of the best records in, baseball maybe you're still
- 31:36Speaker 1: gonna be focused on The. Brewers brewers coming off that
- 31:39Speaker 1: big series against The. Cubs, Man, so even though it
- 31:42Speaker 1: is the start of a road trip and usually you
- 31:44Speaker 1: are focused to start a road, trip maybe not the
- 31:46Speaker 1: case With, milwaukee because coming off that big series against The,
- 31:49Speaker 1: cubs losing a three game win streak at the end
- 31:52Speaker 1: of that series could be a little bit more of
- 31:54Speaker 1: a hangover spot From milwaukee than what you would normally
- 31:56Speaker 1: see on the start of a road. Trip SO i
- 31:58Speaker 1: don't love this For milwaukee. Here milwaukee obviously has the better,
- 32:02Speaker 1: bullpen they have the better. Offense their offense is actually
- 32:05Speaker 1: better on the, road So milwaukee definitely has some pretty
- 32:08Speaker 1: major advantages in this. Game washington's bullpen is, horrendous but
- 32:13Speaker 1: who has the starting pitching. EDGE i don't like either
- 32:16Speaker 1: of these. Starters Man kintana is pitching For, milwaukee and
- 32:19Speaker 1: his era continues to look good three point, five but
- 32:22Speaker 1: his whip is definitely too high one point three to
- 32:24Speaker 1: four better on the road, though two point three to.
- 32:27Speaker 1: Six Roadyra. Kintana he's continuing to hold the posing offenses in, check,
- 32:32Speaker 1: man AND i don't understand how he could continue doing.
- 32:35Speaker 1: That this past month hadn't allow more than four earned
- 32:38Speaker 1: runs in any started that was a start against The.
- 32:40Speaker 1: Dodgers he actually faced The dodgers twice and it was
- 32:43Speaker 1: the second of those two starts that he did, worse
- 32:46Speaker 1: or The dodgers were more familiar with him right after
- 32:48Speaker 1: facing him the first, time and then The mets also
- 32:51Speaker 1: were in there, too so he faced some pretty good
- 32:53Speaker 1: offenses four point zero THREE era over that span of
- 32:56Speaker 1: four games in the month Of july fourteen to six
- 32:59Speaker 1: strikeout walk ratio not horrible, numbers but he's not striking
- 33:03Speaker 1: out a lot of guys, man and that's kind of
- 33:04Speaker 1: been my issue With. Kintana though those walk number has
- 33:07Speaker 1: been too high for me as. Well this past, month
- 33:10Speaker 1: he actually limited the walks a little bit, more so
- 33:12Speaker 1: that is a little bit of a better. Sign he's
- 33:14Speaker 1: pitching a little bit better. Recently up against The, gnats
- 33:18Speaker 1: he actually has done really well against them in a
- 33:20Speaker 1: big eighty five at bat sample size twenty to twelve
- 33:23Speaker 1: strike a walk ratio is not that. Good although seven
- 33:26Speaker 1: of the walks Are bell And, DeJong they each have
- 33:28Speaker 1: a homer off, him so maybe he's kind of pitched
- 33:31Speaker 1: around them a little. Bit they haven't done well against.
- 33:33Speaker 1: HIM i mean they're a combined what is that six
- 33:36Speaker 1: for thirty four off, them so they still have not
- 33:38Speaker 1: done well. There but overall he has done well Against
- 33:42Speaker 1: washington in, general one eighty eight batting, average a lot
- 33:44Speaker 1: six h two, ops a couple of home runs in,
- 33:48Speaker 1: There LIKE i, said but, Overall kintana might actually still
- 33:51Speaker 1: pitch well in this. Game maybe he very well does
- 33:54Speaker 1: have the edge Over Mitchell. Parker Mitchell parker has the
- 33:57Speaker 1: worst numbers on the. Season he is the much younger
- 34:00Speaker 1: and probably has a higher, ceiling but he has not
- 34:02Speaker 1: been getting it done For washington four point nine to ONE,
- 34:05Speaker 1: era one point four to one. Whip he's been better
- 34:08Speaker 1: at home, though three point nine to TWO era at.
- 34:11Speaker 1: Home so ACTUALLY i think both pitchers actually have the
- 34:13Speaker 1: better splits right in this, game is WHAT i said About.
- 34:16Speaker 1: KINTANA i think so this past month not good For
- 34:20Speaker 1: parker six point zero FOUR, era twelve to six strikeout
- 34:23Speaker 1: walk ration not very. Impressive he allowed thirty one hits
- 34:26Speaker 1: in twenty two and a third innings as, well so
- 34:28Speaker 1: he allowed way more hits Than kintana. Did the hit
- 34:31Speaker 1: rate was not good at, all not a ton of,
- 34:34Speaker 1: walks but a very low strikeout rate as. Well washington
- 34:38Speaker 1: did win his last two, starts but he Faced San
- 34:41Speaker 1: diego In minnesota on those two. Games San diego's offense
- 34:44Speaker 1: has been kind of, Sputtering minnesota not a very good,
- 34:46Speaker 1: offense SO i don't know how IMPRESSED i am by those.
- 34:49Speaker 1: Performances going up Against milwaukee's offense could be a task For,
- 34:54Speaker 1: parker and he has not been good against. Them in
- 34:56Speaker 1: thirty eight at, bats he has seven walks and only two.
- 34:59Speaker 1: Strikeouts he's allowed eleven RBIs and two of them runs
- 35:03Speaker 1: to them To vaughn And. Yelich that is a lot
- 35:05Speaker 1: of RBIs to six doubles as, well three forty two
- 35:08Speaker 1: batting average allowed in one thousand and one oh TWO.
- 35:10Speaker 1: Obsa parker really bad numbers there as, Well SO i
- 35:14Speaker 1: actually think pretty much everything kind of lines up On
- 35:18Speaker 1: milwaukee in that. Game they're up for minus one forty
- 35:20Speaker 1: two to minus one forty. Six THOUGH i just kind of, hesitate,
- 35:24Speaker 1: man Because milwaukee's coming off the big series against The
- 35:26Speaker 1: cubs could be a little bit of a mindset issue
- 35:29Speaker 1: there for. Them it is a bad spot For washington too,
- 35:32Speaker 1: though in the return home. Spot so OVERALL i would
- 35:34Speaker 1: lean To milwaukee in the. GAME i do think they
- 35:36Speaker 1: have the edge across the board in the, game but
- 35:39Speaker 1: you are paying a bit of a price for that
- 35:40Speaker 1: obviously on the, road AND i don't know The kintana
- 35:42Speaker 1: really warrants being that much of a road. Favorite we will.
- 35:47Speaker 1: See it's not gonna be a play for, me but
- 35:48Speaker 1: that's the way THAT i Lean Kansas city At. Toronto
- 35:52Speaker 1: toronto is listed as having an undecided starter here on
- 35:55Speaker 1: the board here it was listed As goussman here ON.
- 35:58Speaker 1: ESPN i don't know if it's going to be me or,
- 36:00Speaker 1: not THOUGH i can handicap him if we. Want Kansas.
- 36:03Speaker 1: City they're starting a road trip with some. Momentum they
- 36:06Speaker 1: won the last two games at home Against, atlanta and of,
- 36:09Speaker 1: course remember all these Games i've been talking about rested
- 36:11Speaker 1: bullpens for all these teams as. Well toronto is returning
- 36:15Speaker 1: home from a road trip they went To detroit And,
- 36:18Speaker 1: baltimore so it's not the greatest spot For toronto returning
- 36:22Speaker 1: over from a road trip like, that from playing A detroit,
- 36:25Speaker 1: team it's, good and then a divisional matchup Against baltimore
- 36:28Speaker 1: could be a distracted spot on the return home spot
- 36:30Speaker 1: here With Kansas city not playing well, recently So toronto
- 36:34Speaker 1: might not have full focus Against Kansas. City toronto obviously
- 36:38Speaker 1: has the way better, OFFENSE i, mean that is the
- 36:41Speaker 1: significant edge they. Have Kansas city is a horrendous. Offense bullpen,
- 36:45Speaker 1: Wise toronto probably has the edge as. Well toronto actually
- 36:48Speaker 1: does have a pretty good, bullpend better Than Kansas. City's
- 36:52Speaker 1: So toronto does have those two. Edges don't know who
- 36:55Speaker 1: their starter is gonna be, though but we know it
- 36:57Speaker 1: is going to Be Michael waka for The royal and
- 37:00Speaker 1: he's been a pretty consistent dude throughout his. Career man
- 37:04Speaker 1: not a velocity, pitcher but he gets the job. Done
- 37:07Speaker 1: three point five THREE era one point two to two
- 37:10Speaker 1: whip not bad numbers on the. Season has been significantly
- 37:13Speaker 1: worse on the road, though four point five to THREE
- 37:16Speaker 1: era two runs worse basically than he is at. Home
- 37:19Speaker 1: this past month three point one era pretty. Good fifteen
- 37:22Speaker 1: to nine strang a walk ratio not as, good but
- 37:26Speaker 1: he did limit his opponents only two walks across the
- 37:28Speaker 1: last two starts. Combined so his walk numbers dropped again
- 37:32Speaker 1: over the last two starts and he became not a walk.
- 37:35Speaker 1: Again he allowed only one are in run over the
- 37:38Speaker 1: in each of the last three, starts but the last
- 37:41Speaker 1: two were Against miami And. Cleveland not good offense is
- 37:44Speaker 1: the one prior to that was a decent starting against
- 37:46Speaker 1: against The. Matts excuse, me so give him credit for,
- 37:49Speaker 1: that but The mets offense has actually been kind of
- 37:51Speaker 1: struggling recently. Too walk up Against, toronto what do we?
- 37:57Speaker 1: Have seventy five at? Bats he has not done very
- 37:59Speaker 1: well against. Them nine, strikeouts five, walks three seventy three
- 38:03Speaker 1: batting average allowed and nine to sixty seven. Ops that's
- 38:07Speaker 1: no good player prop. Potential bishett is five for thirteen
- 38:11Speaker 1: with a home, run a couple of. Walks france has
- 38:14Speaker 1: really damaged. Him twelve for twenty five with five doubles
- 38:17Speaker 1: in a home. Run definitely some player prop potential With
- 38:20Speaker 1: Ty france, THERE, waka SO i wouldn't really trust him
- 38:24Speaker 1: in this. Game Necessarily man Against. Toronto toronto does hit
- 38:27Speaker 1: him well in the. Past if it Is, gaussman which
- 38:30Speaker 1: it looks like it might not be, now they might
- 38:32Speaker 1: be Pushing gaussman. Back gusman is having a decent season
- 38:35Speaker 1: three point eight TWO era one point one whip very
- 38:40Speaker 1: similar home and, away not much of a, difference only
- 38:42Speaker 1: very slightly worse at. Home he's done well over the
- 38:45Speaker 1: past Month toronto won four of his five starts during
- 38:49Speaker 1: the last month five of his last. Six hasn't allowed
- 38:52Speaker 1: more than three on runs in any of those, starts
- 38:54Speaker 1: two or fewer in all but, one and that one
- 38:56Speaker 1: start where he did allow three was at That A's sacramentos,
- 39:00Speaker 1: eight which is very hit or fundly. So gussman is
- 39:02Speaker 1: definitely a good form right. Now two point five ONE
- 39:05Speaker 1: era in the month Of july thirty two to twelve
- 39:08Speaker 1: strike At Walker race. Year it's a bit too many,
- 39:10Speaker 1: walks but high strike Gout ray didn't allow a whole
- 39:13Speaker 1: lot of, hits and he did this against The yankees
- 39:15Speaker 1: twice pitching in that a, stadium LIKE i, said and
- 39:18Speaker 1: also pitched Against detroit in his most recent, starting shut
- 39:22Speaker 1: them out with one hit over six. Innings ten k's
- 39:25Speaker 1: and one walks Of gussman definitely is pitching well right.
- 39:29Speaker 1: Now but will it be him on the mound, TODAY
- 39:31Speaker 1: i don't. Know it seems like it might not. Be
- 39:33Speaker 1: he is good Against Kansas city to one hundred and
- 39:35Speaker 1: ten at, bats twenty to seven strike a walker, ratio
- 39:38Speaker 1: two forty five average allowed in six to forty five.
- 39:40Speaker 1: Ops So, toronto they're returning over from a road, trip
- 39:44Speaker 1: doesn't look like a great spot for. Them it might
- 39:46Speaker 1: not be focused On Kansas. City it depends on what's
- 39:50Speaker 1: gonna happen with the starting pitching. Matchup, man it looks
- 39:52Speaker 1: Like toronto right now is lined around a minus one
- 39:54Speaker 1: sixty money line according TO Espn at least that's probably
- 39:58Speaker 1: WHAT Espn bet has it at right. Now toronto would
- 40:02Speaker 1: have the edge across the board as far as the
- 40:04Speaker 1: matchup is. Concerned BUT i don't like the situation For.
- 40:07Speaker 1: Toronto so it's a mixed bag. There so that's why It's,
- 40:11Speaker 1: yeah it just becomes a stay away from Me houston At,
- 40:14Speaker 1: Boston My Boston Red sox returning. Home but they only
- 40:18Speaker 1: had a one series road trip To. Minnesota they did
- 40:21Speaker 1: pretty well after losing the first game by one. RUN
- 40:24Speaker 1: i think an extra innings. Too they took it To
- 40:26Speaker 1: minnesota over the last two, games scoring twenty one runs
- 40:30Speaker 1: in the last two games and Beating minnesota in both,
- 40:32Speaker 1: games beating them thirteen to one in the most recent.
- 40:35Speaker 1: Game will it be a letdown For boston in the
- 40:37Speaker 1: return home. Spot probably, not Because houston is a good,
- 40:41Speaker 1: team SO i think The Red sox should be focused.
- 40:43Speaker 1: Here houston is starting a road trip with some momentum
- 40:47Speaker 1: after they had a bad home, stand losing getting swept
- 40:51Speaker 1: in four games by The, a's which is, ridiculous then
- 40:54Speaker 1: losing a game To, washington but they picked it back
- 40:56Speaker 1: up and Beat. Washington houston's starting to get their offense
- 41:01Speaker 1: back intact. THERE i Guess houston has had some pretty
- 41:05Speaker 1: key injuries in their line up there and their offense
- 41:08Speaker 1: was really really. Struggling but their offense looks like it's
- 41:10Speaker 1: coming back a little. Bit i'm still probably gonna give
- 41:13Speaker 1: the offensive edge to The Red sox, here especially because
- 41:15Speaker 1: they hit better at. HOME i think they do have
- 41:17Speaker 1: the better. Lineup the bullpen edge probably would go To,
- 41:21Speaker 1: houston but let me, see let me, see looking at the, Stats,
- 41:26Speaker 1: Yeah houston second best bullpen, whip although THE era is
- 41:30Speaker 1: a little bit higher than, that but still like a
- 41:32Speaker 1: top several bullpen era as. Well houston's bullpeny array is
- 41:37Speaker 1: actually worse than The Red sox bullpen THE, ra but
- 41:39Speaker 1: The Red sox whip is significantly. Higher so, Yeah i'll
- 41:42Speaker 1: Give houston the bullpen edge. Slightly two rested. Bullpens we
- 41:46Speaker 1: don't know who The Red sox starting pitcher is gonna.
- 41:48Speaker 1: Be Hunter brown is pitching For houston and he is
- 41:51Speaker 1: pretty much their best, starter although you could argue It's
- 41:54Speaker 1: valdez Because brown has been a little bit more. Inconsistent
- 41:58Speaker 1: two point five FOUR era one For, brown really good
- 42:01Speaker 1: numbers this, year a little bit worse on the, road
- 42:05Speaker 1: but very similar numbers both home and. Away this past
- 42:10Speaker 1: month he was a little bit worse though five point
- 42:12Speaker 1: five FOUR era certainly not. Good still had the strikeouts
- 42:15Speaker 1: tough thirty one, strikeouts but ten walks in twenty six
- 42:18Speaker 1: innings put too many men on base for. Sure twenty
- 42:22Speaker 1: seven hits as well in that span of four home runs.
- 42:24Speaker 1: Allowed so he was starting to pitch. Worse and he
- 42:26Speaker 1: wasn't really facing a gauntlet of offenses. EITHER i, mean
- 42:29Speaker 1: he Faced, Colorado, Cleveland texas didn't do well Against, cleveland
- 42:33Speaker 1: Or texas really went To, seattle didn't really last long
- 42:38Speaker 1: in that, game and then faced The a's at least at.
- 42:40Speaker 1: Home So brown starting to pitch a little bit worse of,
- 42:43Speaker 1: though maybe you could argue that because he got named
- 42:45Speaker 1: to The All Star, team WHICH i think was his
- 42:47Speaker 1: first time being named to The All Star. Team he
- 42:50Speaker 1: didn't pitch in The All Star, game but being involved
- 42:53Speaker 1: in The All star festivities and being named to it
- 42:55Speaker 1: could have maybe thrown him off a little. Bit so
- 42:58Speaker 1: maybe he was. Distracted maybe he is coming back into
- 43:00Speaker 1: form because That a's start last time out wasn't that.
- 43:03Speaker 1: Bad give up one on In Ronald those team lost
- 43:06Speaker 1: the game because they weren't hitting at all against The Red.
- 43:09Speaker 1: Sox Red sox haven't seen that much of him fifteen at,
- 43:13Speaker 1: bass but The Red sox have done okay against him
- 43:15Speaker 1: three thirty three, average seven forty five, ops six, strikeouts two,
- 43:19Speaker 1: walks so Overall Red sox have hit him. Okay but
- 43:23Speaker 1: something that might have been in the past When brown
- 43:25Speaker 1: wasn't as good as he is this. Year, Again Red
- 43:28Speaker 1: sox haven't decided on a starter or at. All houston
- 43:30Speaker 1: is actually a road favorite, here and do they deserve to?
- 43:34Speaker 1: Be i'm not so. SURE i think because It's, houston
- 43:37Speaker 1: they have the, name they have the good, Record Hunter
- 43:39Speaker 1: brown on the. Mound Maybe houston's a little bit too
- 43:42Speaker 1: much of a. Favorite but we're gonna see what The
- 43:43Speaker 1: Red sox even decide to do with their starting pitching right.
- 43:46Speaker 1: Now we don't even know what it's gonna. Be so
- 43:49Speaker 1: that remains to be seeing what's gonna. Happen, man is
- 43:51Speaker 1: it gonna Be Dustin? May when did he last? Pitch
- 43:53Speaker 1: and they gonna get him over? Here AND i would be,
- 43:55Speaker 1: like you're starting right? AWAY i don't, Know, Minnesota. Cleveland
- 43:58Speaker 1: i'm gonna skip right. Now that's gonna be one of my.
- 44:00Speaker 1: Plays yankees At. Miami both of these teams are in
- 44:04Speaker 1: a bad. Spot. Man miami is returning home from a
- 44:07Speaker 1: road trip where they actually won both series on the road.
- 44:10Speaker 1: Trip they Beat milwaukee And Saint louis on the road,
- 44:13Speaker 1: trip and they'd Beaten San diego a series at home
- 44:16Speaker 1: before that In Kansas city And baltimore in series before,
- 44:20Speaker 1: that so they've actually won five series in a. Row
- 44:23Speaker 1: miami actually still pitching above their, DEPTH i would, say,
- 44:27Speaker 1: MAN i still don't Think miami is anywhere near as
- 44:30Speaker 1: well as good as they've been. Playing. MAN i, mean
- 44:33Speaker 1: they're still below five. HUNDRED i think you should be
- 44:35Speaker 1: significantly below. That but they're continuing to. Surprise they're coming
- 44:38Speaker 1: off two straight shutouts Of Saint. Louis returning over from
- 44:41Speaker 1: a road, trip though not a great spot returning home
- 44:44Speaker 1: from a road, trip, Man AS i always, say it's
- 44:46Speaker 1: a distraction. Spot you have to get back to family.
- 44:49Speaker 1: Life but it's The, Yankees so you're really gonna be
- 44:52Speaker 1: unfocused with The yankees coming into your. Place probably. Not
- 44:56Speaker 1: yankees have the unrested bolt, then because they played, yesterday
- 44:59Speaker 1: although they actually only he used two of their relief pitchers.
- 45:01Speaker 1: Yesterday we can look that up real. Fast. Yankees, YEAH
- 45:04Speaker 1: i think we used two relief, pitchers so it's not that.
- 45:06Speaker 1: Bad but The yankees bullpen is not that. Good miami's also.
- 45:10Speaker 1: Isn't But miami is at least, rested so Maybe miami
- 45:13Speaker 1: has a little bit of an edge. There miami at
- 45:15Speaker 1: least has a rest, Edge BUT i think because the returning,
- 45:17Speaker 1: home maybe it's a little bit less of an edge
- 45:20Speaker 1: than it would be. Otherwise yankees Have Carlos redon starting
- 45:26Speaker 1: having a good season three point one AD ra one
- 45:28Speaker 1: point zero five. Whip he's been slightly worse on the,
- 45:31Speaker 1: road but pretty similar home and. Away starting to struggle
- 45:35Speaker 1: a little bit more recently. Though this past month four
- 45:38Speaker 1: point two to FOUR era twenty four to ten strike
- 45:41Speaker 1: a walk, ratio so his walk rate went. Up face
- 45:45Speaker 1: some difficult offenses. Though he faced The, mets The, Cubs, Toronto,
- 45:50Speaker 1: philadelphia and he had The All Star game to deal
- 45:52Speaker 1: with in there, too and he pitched in The All
- 45:53Speaker 1: Star game as, well so not an easy task for.
- 45:57Speaker 1: Him so maybe he will pitch a little bit better.
- 45:59Speaker 1: Here he, Is he's stepping way down in class to
- 46:01Speaker 1: face this really really Bad miami, offense So i'm not
- 46:04Speaker 1: sure That radon is really gonna be that bad in this.
- 46:07Speaker 1: Game and his form wasn't horrible, REALLY i, mean his
- 46:10Speaker 1: last three starts he gave up three or fewer earned
- 46:12Speaker 1: runs at, Least so he might pitch well here In.
- 46:16Speaker 1: MIAMI i think has actually never faced him, before which
- 46:19Speaker 1: kind of surprised me WHEN i saw. That but he
- 46:21Speaker 1: might have a little bit of an extra advantage there
- 46:22Speaker 1: Because miami is gonna have to get used to what
- 46:25Speaker 1: he's even throwing at, them and he is a pretty talented,
- 46:27Speaker 1: pitcher so could be an issue For. Miami, There Jansen
- 46:31Speaker 1: junk is pitching For miami and he has not been.
- 46:35Speaker 1: Junk he's actually pitched. Well i'm pretty surprised by. THAT
- 46:38Speaker 1: a three point two EIGHTY ra one point eight whip this.
- 46:41Speaker 1: Season a little bit better at home as. Well, uh
- 46:45Speaker 1: this past month really really nice. Numbers two point seven
- 46:48Speaker 1: to NINETY, ira eighteen to three strike out walk. Ratio
- 46:51Speaker 1: he's not striking guys. Out he is still kind of
- 46:53Speaker 1: a junk, pitcher but he doesn't walk a lot of.
- 46:55Speaker 1: Guys he's not putting a lot of guys on base at.
- 46:57Speaker 1: All didn't give up any home runs over the span
- 47:00Speaker 1: in that. Month over the last two, months he's only
- 47:02Speaker 1: over the entire, season he's only allowed one home, run
- 47:06Speaker 1: so he is pitching quite. Well he's keeping guys off
- 47:08Speaker 1: the base pass over the past. Month you allow more
- 47:11Speaker 1: than three on runs only one time over those five.
- 47:14Speaker 1: Starts he's only done it three times over the course
- 47:17Speaker 1: of the. Season he's pitching well against The New York,
- 47:21Speaker 1: yankees though only nine at, bats so The yankees don't
- 47:25Speaker 1: have a ton of familiarity with. Them no extra base,
- 47:27Speaker 1: hits no, walks three. Strikeouts, overall they have a three
- 47:30Speaker 1: thirty three average but only six sixty seven ops Against,
- 47:33Speaker 1: Junk So yankees have not hit him that well. EITHER i,
- 47:39Speaker 1: mean to, me it's kind of looking almost like an under,
- 47:42Speaker 1: here but the total is pretty. Low it's seven and
- 47:44Speaker 1: a half with some juice on the. Over i'm not
- 47:47Speaker 1: sure THAT i love the bullpens either, here, MAN i,
- 47:49Speaker 1: mean neither bullpen is really that, Great SO i kind
- 47:52Speaker 1: of hesitate on the under even though they are rested
- 47:55Speaker 1: enough that maybe it does make. Sense and the hitting
- 47:57Speaker 1: looks like it might struggle in this, game maybe you
- 48:00Speaker 1: somehow find a way to limit. It if you can
- 48:02Speaker 1: find like an under four on the first five, innings
- 48:04Speaker 1: maybe it makes sense to limit it to just the starting.
- 48:06Speaker 1: PITCHING i don't think there's any way you could play The.
- 48:08Speaker 1: YANKEES i, mean they're down for just one sixty eight
- 48:10Speaker 1: to minus one sixty, five laying a huge price on the.
- 48:13Speaker 1: Road with a low scoring game predicted like, this it
- 48:18Speaker 1: could be that could mean that there's a little bit
- 48:20Speaker 1: more value looking at the underdog and what might be
- 48:22Speaker 1: a lower scoring game like. That SO i wouldn't want
- 48:25Speaker 1: to do, it but it looks like both starting pitchers
- 48:27Speaker 1: might do okay in that, game as you can see
- 48:29Speaker 1: in the Title Giants, Mets So i'm gonna give out
- 48:31Speaker 1: a play on that game as, well So i'll skip.
- 48:34Speaker 1: That Dodgers Tampa. Bay Tampa bay is in probably one
- 48:38Speaker 1: of the worst spots of anybody. Today they're returning over
- 48:41Speaker 1: from a road trip where they went To cincinnati and
- 48:43Speaker 1: then The yankees and they lost all but one. Game
- 48:46Speaker 1: they went one to six on that road. Trip really
- 48:50Speaker 1: really Bad Tampa. Bay coming off that big series against The.
- 48:53Speaker 1: Yankees they blew one of those GAMES i think two
- 48:55Speaker 1: games ago they had the league and blew IT i
- 48:58Speaker 1: think maybe even multiple times in the final innings of
- 49:01Speaker 1: that game and it went into extra. Innings tampa not
- 49:03Speaker 1: looking very good coming into this. Game. Man. Uh they
- 49:06Speaker 1: used three relief pitchers, yesterday which isn't that. Bad so
- 49:09Speaker 1: their bullpen isn't in terrible, shape And they're bullpen generally
- 49:13Speaker 1: is better than The dodgers', bullpen but the rest advantage
- 49:16Speaker 1: obviously goes to The. Dodgers dodgers are on a road trip.
- 49:20Speaker 1: Already they actually went To Boston anstincinnatis that rest might
- 49:24Speaker 1: actually help them as they're just continuing this road trip
- 49:27Speaker 1: and they're not having to, travel you, know multiple time
- 49:29Speaker 1: zones at least, here so doesn't look like a horrendous
- 49:32Speaker 1: spot there ten. Tin what's up? Man so we got
- 49:37Speaker 1: h that's? Right ahh, man thank, you, Sir thanks for hanging.
- 49:42Speaker 1: Out don't want to get this channel. Nuked. Though we're
- 49:46Speaker 1: saying it all in, jest, man of, course it is
- 49:48Speaker 1: always we're always joking around. Here it is a. Joke
- 49:51Speaker 1: dodgers At Tampa bay, Here Clinton kershaw is gonna be
- 49:55Speaker 1: the starter for The dodgers. HERE i, mean obviously he's
- 49:58Speaker 1: a Future hall Of. Famer he's been pitching, okay kind
- 50:02Speaker 1: of coming back into, form but he's still Not he's
- 50:05Speaker 1: still not what he. Was, no that's all, right, Man
- 50:07Speaker 1: thanks for hanging. Out man three point six two E
- 50:10Speaker 1: r For kershaw one point twenty. NINE i, Mean i'm
- 50:12Speaker 1: the one that brought the comment. Up MAYBE i should
- 50:14Speaker 1: stop having the itchy trigger. Finger i'm, LIKE i want
- 50:17Speaker 1: to give everybody the chance to get their comment up.
- 50:19Speaker 1: Here kershaw three point six to two E r a
- 50:22Speaker 1: one point twenty nine whip on the season not bad,
- 50:24Speaker 1: numbers but the whip is definitely too high than WHAT
- 50:28Speaker 1: i would higher than WHAT i would like to. See
- 50:30Speaker 1: he's been better on the road two point eight three
- 50:32Speaker 1: r in the, row but this is a hitter friendly
- 50:34Speaker 1: ballpark here At Steinbrenner. Field kershawn not exactly a great
- 50:38Speaker 1: form here man surrounding pitching in The All Star, game
- 50:42Speaker 1: although he's used to pitching in The All Star. Game
- 50:44Speaker 1: but coming out of That All Star, game he did
- 50:46Speaker 1: not do well Against milwaukee Or. Boston didn't make it
- 50:49Speaker 1: five innings in either. GAME i, mean both offenses are,
- 50:51Speaker 1: good but he only had a four to three strike
- 50:54Speaker 1: a walk ratio there across those two, starts gave up
- 50:57Speaker 1: five earned. Runs didn't look that good those, Starts, man
- 51:01Speaker 1: give up more hits in the innings. Pitch he's not
- 51:03Speaker 1: a great form right. Now over the course of the
- 51:05Speaker 1: entire month Of july ten to five strike a walker,
- 51:07Speaker 1: race he his strikeout rate is way, down and he
- 51:10Speaker 1: gave up more hits in the. Innings pitch again twenty
- 51:12Speaker 1: six and twenty one. Innings kershaw, again he doesn't really
- 51:15Speaker 1: have his stuff, anymore. MAN i mean that strikeout rate
- 51:17Speaker 1: is way down from what he used to be able
- 51:19Speaker 1: to do four point seven ONE era And july not
- 51:22Speaker 1: a great sign either Against Tampa. Bay he actually has
- 51:27Speaker 1: not done well in his career Against Tampa bay. Either
- 51:29Speaker 1: their hitters forty one at bats three seventeen batting average,
- 51:33Speaker 1: allowed seven to sixty three oh. Ps so he hasn't
- 51:36Speaker 1: done really particularly well Against. Tampa SO i kind of
- 51:39Speaker 1: hesitate to want to look Towards kershaw in this. Game
- 51:42Speaker 1: Man Shane boz is pitching For tampa and he does
- 51:44Speaker 1: have the worst numbers on the. Season four point six ONE,
- 51:48Speaker 1: era one point three whip not great at, all very
- 51:51Speaker 1: bad in this, stadium six point three THREE r eight.
- 51:54Speaker 1: Home he's been really really smacked around in this, Stadium
- 51:58Speaker 1: man along twelve of the nineteen runs he's allowed this
- 52:00Speaker 1: year all in this. Stadium that's not. Good he hasn't
- 52:03Speaker 1: pitched well this month the past month, either really five
- 52:06Speaker 1: point four toy rail though thirty to nine strike a
- 52:09Speaker 1: walk ratio was, good so his strikeout rate is actually
- 52:12Speaker 1: higher Than. Kershaws But tampa lost all five of his
- 52:15Speaker 1: starts this. Month this past, month he only gave up
- 52:18Speaker 1: more than three or on runs once, though and that
- 52:20Speaker 1: was the only start that he failed to go five
- 52:22Speaker 1: innings against The White, sox though that's not a good
- 52:25Speaker 1: sign because The White socks are Terrible, andrew what's? Up?
- 52:27Speaker 1: Man SO i don't know what to think about. Him.
- 52:31Speaker 1: Man the last two starts he went five innings or.
- 52:33Speaker 1: Fewer that last one was At Great America, ballpark which
- 52:37Speaker 1: is also a difficult stadium to pitch, in walked two
- 52:40Speaker 1: guys a piece in all of the last four. Starts
- 52:43Speaker 1: don't know if we could really trust Bos. Man he
- 52:45Speaker 1: is facing this really Good dodger, lineup so although The
- 52:48Speaker 1: dodgers are a better lineup at home than they are
- 52:50Speaker 1: on the, road And dodgers are not familiar With, boz
- 52:53Speaker 1: only Ta Oscar hernandez has ever faced. Him he's one
- 52:56Speaker 1: for four of the home run and a walk and
- 52:58Speaker 1: two strikeouts off A, Bob but the rest of The
- 53:01Speaker 1: dodgers' lineup has actually never even seen bos before. Him
- 53:04Speaker 1: so bos might actually have a little bit of an
- 53:06Speaker 1: edge of A kershaw in that, Matchup, man based on
- 53:09Speaker 1: WHAT i just showed, You dodgers down for minus one
- 53:12Speaker 1: ford in to minus one twenty five And tampa still
- 53:14Speaker 1: might have a bulpen edge. Too BUT i don't THINK
- 53:16Speaker 1: i could really do, this, man With tampa being disadvantaged
- 53:20Speaker 1: in that they're returning over from a road trip And
- 53:23Speaker 1: la rested yesterday And tampa did, Not SO i don't
- 53:25Speaker 1: THINK i can actually recommend. It but you're always paying
- 53:28Speaker 1: attacks man For. Dodgers With kershaw on the mound laying
- 53:31Speaker 1: a price like this on the, road you're always gonna
- 53:33Speaker 1: have to pay too much for. That they're down for
- 53:35Speaker 1: minus one ford to minus one twenty. Five SO i
- 53:37Speaker 1: probably would still slightly lean to Playing tampa on the
- 53:40Speaker 1: money line there as an, underdog either in the first
- 53:43Speaker 1: five or in the full, Game BUT i can't that
- 53:46Speaker 1: can't reach the level you know where it would be
- 53:49Speaker 1: a play for. Me pittsburgh At, colorado great match up here,
- 53:53Speaker 1: Right oh my, God colorado's returning home from a road,
- 53:57Speaker 1: trip or they went To baltimore And. Cleveland teams returning
- 54:00Speaker 1: over from road trips usually are even more disadvantage because
- 54:04Speaker 1: they Are they're just, bad so they tend to fall
- 54:08Speaker 1: into that distraction even more, so and it might even
- 54:10Speaker 1: happen even more here Because pittsburgh's not a very good,
- 54:12Speaker 1: Team So colorado returning home doesn't look like a good
- 54:15Speaker 1: spot to. Me for. Them pittsburgh has momentum right now
- 54:19Speaker 1: if they're coming in From San, francisco they're already in
- 54:21Speaker 1: the middle of a road. Trip but will they be
- 54:23Speaker 1: in a letdown spot or are they just really playing
- 54:25Speaker 1: well right? Now they've actually won five games in a
- 54:27Speaker 1: row and eight of their last nine against decent opponents To, Detroit,
- 54:31Speaker 1: Arizona San, francisco Though San francisco has been really bad
- 54:34Speaker 1: offensively for most of the. Season, now but Maybe pittsburgh
- 54:39Speaker 1: has a little bit of an advantage. There, man they
- 54:40Speaker 1: have the momentum at. Least might be a little bit
- 54:43Speaker 1: of a letdown, again, though BECAUSE i don't know if
- 54:45Speaker 1: they're really gonna pay attention To. COLORADO i, Mean colorado
- 54:49Speaker 1: basically is gonna have a disadvantage across the board. THOUGH i,
- 54:53Speaker 1: mean both of these offenses are terrible, though actually Probably
- 54:55Speaker 1: colorado slightly better. Offense, actually especially because they're at Home
- 55:00Speaker 1: colorado for, once they actually probably have the better. Offense
- 55:03Speaker 1: pittsburgh is just that. Bad pittsburgh at the, bottom the
- 55:07Speaker 1: very bottom of the pack in ops at, Least So
- 55:11Speaker 1: i'll Give colorado the offensive edge in this. Game pittsburgh
- 55:15Speaker 1: gets the bullpen. Edge colorado's bullpen's. Bad pittsburgh is actually
- 55:19Speaker 1: not that, bad and with two rest of bullpens, here
- 55:22Speaker 1: you gotta Give pittsburgh the starting pitching edge too With Andrew.
- 55:24Speaker 1: Heeney but he hasn't exactly been. Great four point seven
- 55:28Speaker 1: to NINETY, ra one point two to seven whip, okay
- 55:31Speaker 1: but six point four to FIVE r in the road
- 55:33Speaker 1: not a good. Sign thirteen of the twenty home runs
- 55:36Speaker 1: that he's allowed the season have come on the, road
- 55:38Speaker 1: not a good. Sign when he's pitching in This corps,
- 55:41Speaker 1: field he're not. Good pittsburgh has lost three of his
- 55:45Speaker 1: four starts in the month Of, july and they've actually
- 55:47Speaker 1: lost six of his last eight starts as. Well this,
- 55:50Speaker 1: month he has a NINE era and only a seven
- 55:52Speaker 1: to four strikeout WALK raceiow twenty hits, allowed six home
- 55:56Speaker 1: runs allowed in fourteen. Innings he is not pitching well
- 55:59Speaker 1: and a lot of damage came against bad Teams Kansas,
- 56:02Speaker 1: City Minnesota White. Sox that's not. Good and then his
- 56:06Speaker 1: best start of the month was Against, arizona the best
- 56:09Speaker 1: offense did he, Faced so try to figure that. Out
- 56:11Speaker 1: maybe it was because the team started falling off because
- 56:14Speaker 1: they knew they were gonna sell some of their batters and,
- 56:16Speaker 1: Whatever so maybe that was what happened. There he did
- 56:20Speaker 1: have a five inning shutout in that, game allowing only two,
- 56:23Speaker 1: hits no walks for. Strikeouts does that mean he and
- 56:26Speaker 1: he is coming back into? Form And i'm not so
- 56:29Speaker 1: sure about. That Against colorado his numbers are. Mediocre, really
- 56:34Speaker 1: in forty seven of bats thirteen to five strike a
- 56:37Speaker 1: walk races is not that, good Although nola has four
- 56:40Speaker 1: of the. Walks Not Aaron, nola the pitcher For philly
- 56:42Speaker 1: who was, injured AND i don't know when he's coming,
- 56:44Speaker 1: back But Austin. NOLA i don't know if there's any
- 56:46Speaker 1: relation overall two fifty five average allowed by he And
- 56:51Speaker 1: ach To colorado's offense eight eighty ops not good though
- 56:54Speaker 1: three home Runs, Goodman, farmer And estrada have all home
- 56:58Speaker 1: run off. Him any not really great numbers there Against
- 57:02Speaker 1: colorado and sends a tell a pitcher Of. COLORADO i,
- 57:05Speaker 1: mean he's got to be the worst starter in all of, baseball.
- 57:08Speaker 1: MAN i just have no clue how he even manages
- 57:10Speaker 1: to maintain a spot in this, rotation or in any
- 57:14Speaker 1: rotation for that. Matter six point six's eighty ra one
- 57:17Speaker 1: point eight four. WHIP i, mean it does not get
- 57:19Speaker 1: much worse than that throughout the course of this entire.
- 57:22Speaker 1: Season at this, point putting almost two guys on basin,
- 57:25Speaker 1: inning you can't do, that, MAN i, mean that's almost unheard.
- 57:28Speaker 1: Of ten ten thanks to the reps, Man he's been
- 57:32Speaker 1: a little bit better at home, somehow six point three
- 57:35Speaker 1: to NINETY r in course, Field he's just awful in,
- 57:38Speaker 1: general though this month is still really. Bad six point
- 57:41Speaker 1: six FIVE, era thirteen to five strikeout walk, ratio five, homers,
- 57:45Speaker 1: allowed twenty seven, hits and twenty one to two thirds
- 57:47Speaker 1: in he's. Pitch none of that is good at. All
- 57:50Speaker 1: So i'm, thinking even though the bullpen's, Arrested colorado's bullpen's
- 57:54Speaker 1: not very, good both these starters look like they're gonna
- 57:57Speaker 1: get roughed up. Here i'm thinking probably the over makes
- 58:00Speaker 1: sense in this, game even Though pittsburgh's bullpen is fairly.
- 58:02Speaker 1: Good both offenses do, suck Especially, pittsburgh's But pittsburgh's offense
- 58:07Speaker 1: might be able to do something against basically the worst
- 58:10Speaker 1: starter in. Baseball total up from eleven and a half
- 58:14Speaker 1: to eleven and a half with juice on the. Over
- 58:16Speaker 1: that is a high, total though for offenses like, This
- 58:19Speaker 1: SO i don't quite want to give that out as a,
- 58:20Speaker 1: play but that's probably the lean THAT i would have
- 58:23Speaker 1: in that. Game White sox At. Anaheim anaheim is actually
- 58:27Speaker 1: staying at, home coming off winning two, series winning a
- 58:31Speaker 1: series Against texas and splitting the prior series Against. Seattle
- 58:35Speaker 1: anaheim actually playing decently, Recently, scott what's up, Man thanks
- 58:39Speaker 1: for hanging out. Man they're playing against The White, sox
- 58:43Speaker 1: who actually have been playing a little bit better. RECENTLY
- 58:46Speaker 1: i mean they Swept, pittsburgh Beat tampa, onither won one
- 58:50Speaker 1: game against The, cubs and now they're coming up Beating
- 58:52Speaker 1: philadelphia in a. Series The White sox playing. Decently starting
- 58:57Speaker 1: a road drib beer could be a focused spot for
- 58:59Speaker 1: them because there's road, trip but could be a little
- 59:01Speaker 1: bit of a letdown two coming off a game Against,
- 59:03Speaker 1: pittsburgh and we have no idea who they're starting here
- 59:06Speaker 1: undecided for The White, sox so it makes it really
- 59:09Speaker 1: difficult to read. Here both these bullpens are, bad so
- 59:12Speaker 1: that's something to keep in mind. Too we're looking at
- 59:15Speaker 1: some pretty weak. Bullpens White sox twenty second In, whip
- 59:19Speaker 1: although their era is actually better than all the rest
- 59:21Speaker 1: of the teams in the. Packs so The White sox
- 59:23Speaker 1: bullpen actually maybe a little bit better than the rest of,
- 59:26Speaker 1: these and The angels bullpen is still one of the
- 59:29Speaker 1: worst in all of, baseball So White sox actually have
- 59:32Speaker 1: a bit of a bullpen edge. Here starting pitching, again
- 59:35Speaker 1: we have no idea who The White sox will even
- 59:37Speaker 1: throw out. There Tyler anderson pitching for The. Angels don't
- 59:40Speaker 1: trust him at, all as you know from watching me
- 59:43Speaker 1: on this. Show four point four to ONE, era but
- 59:46Speaker 1: one point four to one, WHIP i, mean that is.
- 59:48Speaker 1: Awful he's definitely been falling a part of. Though he's
- 59:51Speaker 1: been better at home, though three point one to nine E.
- 59:53Speaker 1: Ra so if you're gonna ever play in An anderson,
- 59:55Speaker 1: game you probably have to make it a home. Game
- 59:58Speaker 1: but he's been really bad this. Month he's been bad.
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: Recently four point three to ninety r, right not, terrible
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: but seventeen to eleven strike out walk, ratio five homers
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: allowed in thirty hits and twenty six to two thirds
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: in he's. Pitch not gonna cut. It that's not gonna
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: get it. Done he should get cut, REALLY a last
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: outing only made it four and two thirds Against seattle
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: to not pitch particularly well in that, game give up
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: a couple of, bombs although he limited it to those two.
- 1:00:22Speaker 1: Runs he's somehow limited his opponents to four and runs
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: at most in the last seven, starts but a lot
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: of those starts he wasn't going deep into the, games
- 1:00:33Speaker 1: so that's still not really a great. Sign he's still
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: allowing too many runs while he's out there up against
- 1:00:39Speaker 1: The White, sox who do have a very pathetic, offense
- 1:00:42Speaker 1: Though angels obviously have the better offense. Here he's done
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: pretty well against The White sox and forty four at
- 1:00:48Speaker 1: bats two fifty average allowed six forty. Five, oh he
- 1:00:51Speaker 1: has eleven to five strike out walk, Ratio So anderson
- 1:00:58Speaker 1: maybe not the worst matchup for him, there and he
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: has the home road splits for this at, least but
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: he's in such bad. FORM i don't know THAT i
- 1:01:04Speaker 1: would want to Trust anderson anim will be a favor,
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: here but it looks like there might be a small
- 1:01:08Speaker 1: favorite around minus one thirty. Five so, AGAIN i guess
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: kind of trying to process all that information to try
- 1:01:15Speaker 1: to figure it, out but it's really tough to figure
- 1:01:17Speaker 1: out what you even want to do with this game
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: with an undecided pitcher on the side of The White,
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: Sox so thank, you. Sir my instincts with baseball or
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: getting the stream, NUKED i don't. Know Saint louis At San.
- 1:01:29Speaker 1: Diego San diego is potentially in a letdown spot BECAUSE i,
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: mean they just split a series With Saint. Louis but
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: they won the last two games Against Saint louis on the,
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: road so maybe it's a little bit of a revenge
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: spot For Saint. Louis And San diego is now currently
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: coming off sweeping The mets and shutting them out in
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: the last game and beating them by a combined twelve
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: to one score over the last two. Games So San
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: diego is coming off some pretty big. Games San diego
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: did just make some moves and they got h the
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: only good relief pitcher in The a's. Bullpen The a's
- 1:02:03Speaker 1: traded him over To San diego along WITH Jp SEARS
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: i believe is now In San, diego who's an okay starter,
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: really But San diego got the best reliever from The a's.
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: Bullpen they're only good, relievers and The a's, bullpen already
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: the worst in, baseball just got worse And San diego's,
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: bullpen which is the best in baseball, now just became
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: even better getting that basically The a's. Closer So San
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: diego did have to give up one of their top,
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: prospects a short STOP i believe for. Him but Still
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: San diego just bolstered their team a little bit there
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: THAT i think they might have made one other move,
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: too BUT i don't, remember but that was kind of
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: the move that made waves. YESTERDAY i don't know if
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: the guy that got from The a's will be there.
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: Yet they'ren ready for this. Game but still you're looking
- 1:02:48Speaker 1: at the best bullpen in baseball With San diego that
- 1:02:50Speaker 1: actually has an unheard of two point nine to SEVENTY
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: ra at this point in the. Season that's. Insane so
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: they have the best bullpen in. Baseball, obviously they have
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: the better bullpen Over Saint lewis fairly. Significantly both bullpen's,
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: arrested Though Saint louis is starting a road trip after
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: getting shut out two games in a row Against. Miami
- 1:03:10Speaker 1: Now Saint louis starting to. Travel Though Saint louis became
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: kind of a seller at the deadline right they Traded motts,
- 1:03:16Speaker 1: away and they might have traded some other guys away.
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: Too i'm not, sure but they are starting a road
- 1:03:20Speaker 1: trip coming off some embarrassing, Losses so Maybe Saint louis
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: will actually show up with some sense of pride in this.
- 1:03:26Speaker 1: Game But San diego again has the better. Bullpen as
- 1:03:29Speaker 1: far as the, OFFENSES i, Mean San diego has so
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: much talent on their, offense you got to think that
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: at some point their offense is going to turn it.
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: Around but they've really. Slipped i'm looking at the offenses right,
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: now where Is San. DIEGO i don't even. Know they're
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: down at twenty. Seconds that's pretty. Bad Saint louis not
- 1:03:46Speaker 1: that far ahead of, them, though SO i, mean maybe
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: you Give Saint louis a slight offensive, edge but it's
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: not by. Much and we look at the starting. Pitchers
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: libratrre is pitching For Saint. Louis he's started to fall
- 1:03:58Speaker 1: off a little bit. Too he had a really good
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: start to the, season but maybe because he's, young he's
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: not used to pitching that deep into a. Season, whatever
- 1:04:05Speaker 1: he's starting to fall off a little. Bit four point
- 1:04:07Speaker 1: zero four E ra in the, season one point two seven.
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: Whip he's been better on the road three point six
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: FIVE r in the, road and this is a pitcher
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: friendly ballpark In San. Diego But libratory has not been
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: good this month at. All six point five to seven
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: E ra or over the past, MONTH i should. Say In,
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: JULY i keep fucking that. Up he had a seven
- 1:04:26Speaker 1: to seven strikeout walk ra issue over that span two
- 1:04:28Speaker 1: of three. Starts that's not. Good the last two starts
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: he didn't even make it past four and a third
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: in either of. Them and he just Faced San diego
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: and only went four and a third and didn't do
- 1:04:38Speaker 1: particularly well in that. Starting he held him to one
- 1:04:41Speaker 1: ear and, run but he was out of that game pretty.
- 1:04:43Speaker 1: Quickly So San diego did just See. Libratory they did
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: fairly well against him in that. Game might not be
- 1:04:49Speaker 1: a good sign for, him, man because they're facing him
- 1:04:52Speaker 1: again right now and they already did fairly well against,
- 1:04:55Speaker 1: him and now they're familiar with him from. Recency his
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: numbers Against San diego are not horrendous. Though in his
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: career thirty one at bats two fifty eight average is
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: not bad at. All seven to forty three ops is
- 1:05:05Speaker 1: not terribly high. Either seven to three strike a walk
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: ratio for The mendoza. Lines by the, WAY i kind
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: of look around batting average of maybe two eighty or
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: so to, determine, oh, yeah that average is good for
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: the hitters versus what the pitcher does and. Ops more,
- 1:05:20Speaker 1: IMPORTANTLY i look at about seven point fifty for where
- 1:05:23Speaker 1: it becomes like good versus bad between the pitcher and the,
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: hitter which has the. Advantage that's WHAT i tend to
- 1:05:28Speaker 1: look for, there BECAUSE i know people have been asking FOR.
- 1:05:31Speaker 1: ERA i, MEAN i tend to look at basically about
- 1:05:34Speaker 1: four as being kind of The mendoza aligned for the
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: whip like one point three kind of My mendoza line
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: there for WHETHER i think the picture is good or.
- 1:05:41Speaker 1: Not but, anyway, Libratoring, YEAH i mean his numbers are
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: okay Against San. DIEGO i don't know IF i could
- 1:05:46Speaker 1: trust them. Though Nick pavetta pitching For San. Diego he's
- 1:05:50Speaker 1: pitching really well this. Year man two point eight ONE
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: era point nine to nine whip anything sub one is
- 1:05:57Speaker 1: very very, good stellar. Whip he's been really, good good
- 1:06:00Speaker 1: at home to two point oh SEVENTY ra and this
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: very pitcher friendly. Ballpark pitching well this month as, well
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: the past month one point one to seventy ra thirty
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: to eight strikeout walk. Ratio had a ten strikeout shutout
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: with no walks the last start In. June right before that.
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: Too he's had three shutouts over the last six, starts
- 1:06:19Speaker 1: allowing two or fewer runs in all six of those.
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: Starts pretty good, stuff, man and his team is one
- 1:06:25Speaker 1: four of the. Six probably should be better than, that,
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: though because he's pretty much dominated every start Against saint
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: louis pretty much dominant numbers and forty five at bats
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: they only have six hits off of him fourteen to
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: six strike at walk ratio one thirty three average down
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: four to thirty one OH. Psa paveta has completely. Dominated
- 1:06:45Speaker 1: SO i think you gotta Give San diego basically the
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: pitching edge across the. Board they, have the better, starter
- 1:06:51Speaker 1: they have the better. Bullpen hitting is a little bit more.
- 1:06:54Speaker 1: Even LIKE i, said in the, situation maybe Favorite saint
- 1:06:58Speaker 1: louis a little, bit BUT i wouldn't Trust SAINT i don't,
- 1:07:00Speaker 1: think especially When saint louis right around the trade, deadline
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: those teams have become sellers might be a little bit
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: less motivated than the team that picked up some new,
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: pieces Like San, diego which means we're going for, it,
- 1:07:11Speaker 1: man so let's fucking. Play San diego is way too
- 1:07:14Speaker 1: high of a price, now though they're up for minus
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: one thirty five to minus one eighty. FOUR i don't
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: know what that minus one thirty five. WAS i don't
- 1:07:21Speaker 1: know if Maybe San diego was gonna have another pitcher
- 1:07:23Speaker 1: starting and then switched To. Paveda i'm not sure what happened,
- 1:07:27Speaker 1: there but minus one eighty. FOUR i just don't really
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: think you can do it With San, diego especially the you,
- 1:07:33Speaker 1: know coming off that big series like that against The.
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: METS i don't THINK i could do. It arizona at
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: The A'S i, mean we don't even know what the
- 1:07:41Speaker 1: fuck's going on in this. Game neither starter has been.
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: ANNOUNCED i think LAST i saw right undecided against. Undecided, Yeah,
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: like what the hell do you do in a game like?
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: THAT i don't. Know arizona is a continuing a road,
- 1:07:54Speaker 1: trip but they were just In Pittsburgh. Detroit they've lost
- 1:07:57Speaker 1: five straight. Games they've lost basically every game basically since
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: they decided to sell at the trade. Deadline they have
- 1:08:03Speaker 1: not been in a good mental state at. ALL i
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: would say they've lost eight of their last nine. Games
- 1:08:08Speaker 1: they're playing really really horrific, baseball losing a series To
- 1:08:12Speaker 1: pittsburgh after getting swept By. Houston now they got swept By.
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: Detroit they're going out to The Pacific coast now continuing
- 1:08:19Speaker 1: the road, trip having to change time. Zones doesn't look
- 1:08:23Speaker 1: good For. Arizona, man they know they're. Done they're pretty
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: much out of. It they traded two of their big bats,
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: NOW i believe, Right so it's not looking good For arizona.
- 1:08:31Speaker 1: Here man and their bullpen is, horrendous even though they
- 1:08:33Speaker 1: have arrested Bullpend both these teams have rested, bullpens but
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: as also have a horrendous. Bullpen so you have two
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: of the worst bullpens in all of baseball going up
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: against each other. Year these are horrific. Bullpens so does
- 1:08:46Speaker 1: that mean you should go? Over and it's in the
- 1:08:48Speaker 1: most hit or friendly ballpark basically you, know all of
- 1:08:51Speaker 1: baseball as, well except for Maybe Corp's. Field, yeah there
- 1:08:54Speaker 1: are definitely things looking like it could be an over.
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: Here we don't even know Who arizona starter is gonna. Be,
- 1:08:59Speaker 1: yes the relievers will be available, though so that takes
- 1:09:02Speaker 1: a little bit of something away from the over. Here
- 1:09:04Speaker 1: it looks Like Jacob lopez was scheduled to start for The.
- 1:09:07Speaker 1: A's maybe he won't be. Anymore four point twenty NINE
- 1:09:10Speaker 1: era one point three to four Whip on the, Season
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: lopez has started to trail off a little, bit though
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: he's somehow actually been better in this. Stadium three point
- 1:09:18Speaker 1: six TWO era in this, stadium but he's been bad
- 1:09:20Speaker 1: over the past. Month five point THREE era twenty three
- 1:09:23Speaker 1: to ten strike a walk race. Year he still has
- 1:09:25Speaker 1: a high strikeout, rate even though he's not a hard,
- 1:09:28Speaker 1: thrower but his walk rate was very. HIGH i don't
- 1:09:31Speaker 1: really Trust lopez against the D. Backs they've never seen him, before,
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: though so if it Is, lopez The diamondbacks have never
- 1:09:39Speaker 1: seen him, before so maybe he has a little bit
- 1:09:40Speaker 1: of an edge in that. Respect it looks like we
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: don't even know what the line is gonna be on
- 1:09:44Speaker 1: THIS i don't see what the total is gonna. BE
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: i mean a game like this with these, bullpens and
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: maybe we don't even know who the starter is gonna,
- 1:09:51Speaker 1: be and it might be bullpen games with horrendous bullpens
- 1:09:54Speaker 1: in this. Stadium the total in this game might come
- 1:09:57Speaker 1: out of twelve man to be, honest it might be
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: a crazy high, total so it's probably the WAY i
- 1:10:03Speaker 1: would lean would be to the over in this, game
- 1:10:05Speaker 1: but it might be an insane, total SO i probably
- 1:10:08Speaker 1: would Just i'll just stay Away texas At. Seattle these
- 1:10:12Speaker 1: teams played. Yesterday they actually started their. Series, seattle despite
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: returning home from a road, trip Beat texas six to nothing,
- 1:10:19Speaker 1: yesterday getting the shutout. There texas does have the better
- 1:10:24Speaker 1: bullpen in. General texas only used two relief pitchers. Yesterday
- 1:10:27Speaker 1: seattle used, three but fairly light usage, there so both
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: bullpens are still in decent form. HERE i Give texas
- 1:10:34Speaker 1: a little bit of the bullpen. Edge seattle obviously has
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: the offensive, edge especially With seattle getting these new pieces
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: WHERE i believe they got both of those hitters that
- 1:10:44Speaker 1: The diamondbacks trader both On seattle now, RIGHT i. Believe
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: take a look at their. ROSTER i don't know if
- 1:10:49Speaker 1: they're both gonna be there, now but they picked Up,
- 1:10:52Speaker 1: naylor WHO i believe has already been playing for them
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: for a, while and they picked Up, suarez so they're
- 1:10:57Speaker 1: both In seattle's lineup now, again AND i think Maybe,
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: SUAREZ i don't know if he's actually gonna play yet for,
- 1:11:03Speaker 1: them But naylor is. There seattle has the better offense.
- 1:11:06Speaker 1: Anyway Jack leater is pitching For. Texas he's been. Okay
- 1:11:10Speaker 1: four point zero NINE era one point three to two
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: whip is definitely too. High four point six' five r
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: in the road is. Not good he's been worse on.
- 1:11:18Speaker 1: The road seattle does have a pitcher, friendly part. But
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: lighter he. Throws hard he strikes out a good amount.
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: Of guys he's been good as Far as thera. Is
- 1:11:27Speaker 1: concerned last month three point four TO, three era twenty
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: five strikeouts in twenty. One inning he's only sixteen. Hits
- 1:11:33Speaker 1: allowed but the walks are. The. Problem man he, throws
- 1:11:36Speaker 1: hard but he walks guys. Thirteen walks that's. Not good
- 1:11:40Speaker 1: his team did win the last three starts that, he,
- 1:11:42Speaker 1: made though so he's been a little bit. Better recently
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: but the walks are definitely. A problem And against seattle
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: he has not. Pitched well they've seen a lot of,
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: him already even though it's a young career. For him
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: seattle has faced him a lot fifty seven at bats
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: because they're in the. Same division three, sixteen average nine
- 1:12:00Speaker 1: seventy seven ops fifteen to six strikeout, walk ratio five home,
- 1:12:04Speaker 1: runs allowed although two guys have two of them runs Off.
- 1:12:07Speaker 1: From raleigh what Else is new three for eight with
- 1:12:10Speaker 1: two of them runs and two walks off Him And
- 1:12:12Speaker 1: Rodriguez julio rodriguez six for eleven with two of them runs.
- 1:12:15Speaker 1: Off him so those two guys maybe player prop. Worthy
- 1:12:18Speaker 1: There jack lighter doesn't exactly look like he matches up
- 1:12:23Speaker 1: that well there in that. Particular game your dad's roommate
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: was Friends With, al lighter Which Is jack. LIGHTER'S father
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: i made a MISTAKE and i accidentally said It Was
- 1:12:32Speaker 1: mark lighter at. One Point But mark lighter's Son Is Mark,
- 1:12:35Speaker 1: lighter JUNIOR and i believe he's In. The yankees bullpen
- 1:12:38Speaker 1: Parted At gettysburg Gettysburg. GOT college i seem you mean
- 1:12:43Speaker 1: fall semester before reporting to spring training With. The, yankee
- 1:12:46Speaker 1: see your father Parted With al lighter before he reported
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: to spring training when he was On. The yankees is
- 1:12:51Speaker 1: that what? You're saying, that's, CRAZY man I believe i.
- 1:12:56Speaker 1: Did see i'll have to check to see if It Was.
- 1:12:57Speaker 1: AL lighter I think I Saw al. Lighter pitch i've
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: mentioned this on the. Show before it's a very memorable
- 1:13:03Speaker 1: GAME because I remember i was sitting in the grand
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: stand in The At, fenway park a little bit of
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: a ways, back though kind of down the right. Field
- 1:13:11Speaker 1: line not the. Greatest view you're kind of looking down
- 1:13:14Speaker 1: at the. Foul poll but it's the. GRAND stand, i
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: mean it's the environment you're. In there there were a
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: Lot of mets. Fans there It Was, Red, sox Mets the.
- 1:13:20Speaker 1: Mets fans this is back in like. The Nineties the
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: mets fans were chanting nineteen eighteen At The red sox
- 1:13:25Speaker 1: Because The red sox hadn't Won the world, serious intent,
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: of course and, you know Given The red sox fans
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: Shit about buckner. And WHATEVER but i remember. That game
- 1:13:33Speaker 1: it Was Definitely. Tim wakefield Rip Loved, tim WAKEFIELD and
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: i got to see him pitch in person. Multiple times
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: he had a good game that. Particular game It. WAS
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: wakefield i believe It was Wakefield, against lighter And The
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: red sox lost, THE game i think two. To one
- 1:13:47Speaker 1: some that it was a very. Close game it was a.
- 1:13:49Speaker 1: Pitching duel i'd have to look to see if It.
- 1:13:52Speaker 1: Was lighter i'm pretty sure. It was AND then I
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: remember i think it Was like isringhausen was the closer
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: For the mets at. The time he came in and
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: finished a. Game off but that was one of the
- 1:14:01Speaker 1: GAMES that i remember more than many of the. OTHER
- 1:14:04Speaker 1: ones i remember those pitching duels, man that AND then
- 1:14:07Speaker 1: i was At The john lester, no hitter which wasn't a,
- 1:14:09Speaker 1: pitching Duel but lester threw a no hitter in a,
- 1:14:12Speaker 1: blowout WIN so i remember that. Game too games like,
- 1:14:16Speaker 1: THAT definitely i. Remember those and then a pitching Duel
- 1:14:19Speaker 1: Between roy HALLIDAY and i believe it Was Also. JOHN
- 1:14:23Speaker 1: lester I think I Saw john lester. Many times halliday.
- 1:14:26Speaker 1: RIP two i think It was Halliday, against lester and
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: it was. A win late in. The Game KEVIN yuclas
- 1:14:32Speaker 1: i think had a WALK off rbi maybe in, that
- 1:14:35Speaker 1: Game and halliday was smashing gatorade coolers in the dugout,
- 1:14:38Speaker 1: after THAT which I think halliday pitched the complete game
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: in that game it took. The loss that was an
- 1:14:44Speaker 1: interesting one. As well and then We, had YEAH and
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: i Did See john lester pitch in the twenty thirteen playoffs.
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: As well in the first game of, the playoffs game
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: one Of The wildcard series or whatever it was or
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: maybe was At. THE alds i forget what it. Was
- 1:14:59Speaker 1: against it might have Been, THE alds i, guess right
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: because that's how the. Format was it was Against. The
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: rays lester didn't pitch well in, that game But The
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: red sox Offense And tampa bay's bad field And bailed
- 1:15:11Speaker 1: lester out And The red sox won that game after
- 1:15:13Speaker 1: they fell behind pretty bad early in. That GAME if
- 1:15:16Speaker 1: i remember cocing, it anyway Some Toaed red sox game
- 1:15:20Speaker 1: attendance lore. There Anyway logan gilbert is Pitching for SEATTLE
- 1:15:25Speaker 1: on i like what he's Been doing man three point
- 1:15:27Speaker 1: THREE six era, ONE whip i mean nothing to dislike.
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: About that he's been way better. At home one point
- 1:15:33Speaker 1: NINE four era at home. Is ridiculous three point OH
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: four era over the past month with a thirty eight
- 1:15:39Speaker 1: to ten strikeout walker show he's getting the. Job done he's,
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: pitching well getting a lot of strikeouts There against texas's.
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: Weak lineup he's been good in a massive sample size
- 1:15:50Speaker 1: two hundred two. AT bats i don't think you'll ever
- 1:15:52Speaker 1: see that big a sample size with THIS low, I mean,
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: I know i say that, a lot but two hundred
- 1:15:56Speaker 1: and two is a crazy. Sample size He sell texas
- 1:16:00Speaker 1: hits hitters to a one sixty eight average and five
- 1:16:03Speaker 1: forty eight ohps sixty to fifteen striking a. WALK ratio,
- 1:16:07Speaker 1: i mean he's Basically dominated texas man in a giant.
- 1:16:11Speaker 1: Sample size so, it's like even though they're familiar, with
- 1:16:14Speaker 1: him they can't get. To Him, SO seattle, i think
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: does have the edge of. This game they got the
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: edge of the starting pitching. MATCHUP here i would lean,
- 1:16:22Speaker 1: that way but, the price the price tag. Is high
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: they're up for minus one. Sixty four i'm not SURE
- 1:16:29Speaker 1: that i could do it, Mental though seattle is certainly going.
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: For It but texas made some moves that the deadline,
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: AS well. I believe I think texas made a couple
- 1:16:36Speaker 1: of sneaky MOVES or i think they improved their team
- 1:16:39Speaker 1: a little. Bit, there texas who did? They get they
- 1:16:41Speaker 1: got Some starter i'm trying to. Remember, now well we'll
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: see him come up when he, Does start but they got.
- 1:16:46Speaker 1: SOME starter i, Was, like oh that's gonna help them.
- 1:16:49Speaker 1: A lot who was, It Though, Merrill, kelly yeah that
- 1:16:52Speaker 1: was a decent move. For. Them man so they've thrown
- 1:16:55Speaker 1: him into their. Starting Rotation. They're texas they're pitching is
- 1:16:59Speaker 1: like one of The bet they're one of the best
- 1:17:01Speaker 1: pitching teams. In, Baseball man texas gonna be a difficult
- 1:17:04Speaker 1: team to contend with just because of. Their pitching but in,
- 1:17:08Speaker 1: this game the edge Goes. To seattle, FOR me i
- 1:17:10Speaker 1: just think it's too much of a price to lay
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: on that could Look, towards seattle, you know run line
- 1:17:16Speaker 1: or something. Like that maybe could go with. That BULLPEND like,
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: I said texas has a, bullpen edge but it's not.
- 1:17:23Speaker 1: That significant graphic for best bets should Be told rinning a,
- 1:17:27Speaker 1: suicide note just a list of. Your, PLAYS well i
- 1:17:31Speaker 1: do It, with AI and ai won't allow me to.
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: Do that but that is an, Excellent, Segue brad so
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: thank you. For that because we are going to the best.
- 1:17:39Speaker 1: Bets here consider that to be my. Suicide note they're.
- 1:17:42Speaker 1: Betting slip it's gonna be the slip of the the.
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: NOOSE there i don't want to. GET this i don't
- 1:17:48Speaker 1: want to. Get, this, nooked man we can't, do this.
- 1:17:51Speaker 1: Best bets let's go. To, it man first game up is.
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: A total we're gonna go Under In. Minnesota, Cleveland man
- 1:17:58Speaker 1: i'm both. THESE bullpens, I know i don't love these bullpens,
- 1:18:02Speaker 1: that much Especially. NOT minnesota's i, get it but they're
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: both rested at least to the best relievers will, be
- 1:18:07Speaker 1: available and both these teams they know they're not, going
- 1:18:10Speaker 1: anywhere so we might see a little bit less offensive
- 1:18:13Speaker 1: fervor in. This game both teams are, off yesterday so
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: the bats might be a little. Bit cold and these
- 1:18:18Speaker 1: are not, good, offenses man so that's definitely part of. The,
- 1:18:20Speaker 1: HANDICAP minnesota, i, MEAN mediocre i guess at best for,
- 1:18:26Speaker 1: Their offense cleveland. Very bad they're in like the bottom
- 1:18:28Speaker 1: five or whatever in. The OPS pitching, i, KNOW again
- 1:18:32Speaker 1: i Don't like minnesota's bullpen the way they've been pitching.
- 1:18:35Speaker 1: At all and they did Just trade, duran Away Not,
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: jaron Duran But wan duran or whatever his. Name is
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: they traded, him away so their bullpend got. Even worse,
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: BUT again, i mean they at least have a. Rested
- 1:18:49Speaker 1: bullpend cleveland's bullpen at least is not. THAT bad, i
- 1:18:52Speaker 1: mean their bullpend era is actually, fairly Decent so i'm
- 1:18:56Speaker 1: not too worried about it going full game on, this
- 1:18:58Speaker 1: one especially, because again you, KNOW me i don't like
- 1:19:00Speaker 1: going under three and a half in the first. FIVE
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: innings i think it's. Very dangerous so instead we're going
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: full game under the seven and, a half even though
- 1:19:07Speaker 1: it looks like you might if you. Get seven now
- 1:19:09Speaker 1: on this it looks like it's already dropped from the
- 1:19:12Speaker 1: seven and a half, to SEVEN so i think the
- 1:19:13Speaker 1: money is agreeing with me. On this the money line
- 1:19:15Speaker 1: is flipped from plus one point Fifteen on cleveland to minus,
- 1:19:18Speaker 1: one twenty so the actual money Is fading. Minnesota here i'm,
- 1:19:24Speaker 1: gonna Go and i'm gonna say both starting pitchers are
- 1:19:26Speaker 1: gonna do. Well. Here, though man even though the money
- 1:19:28Speaker 1: line makes it seem Like maybe cleveland will uh actually
- 1:19:32Speaker 1: will actually have the upper, HAND somehow i don't know
- 1:19:34Speaker 1: why that would be, the case Because Obviously joe ryan
- 1:19:37Speaker 1: is the better picture in General Over. Gavin Williams Will
- 1:19:41Speaker 1: joe ryan be like, fuck this like unfocused because it
- 1:19:45Speaker 1: looked like he was really close to being on like,
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: a contender and now he has to stay with. The
- 1:19:48Speaker 1: twins is it gonna be like fuck this or is
- 1:19:51Speaker 1: it gonna help him like get that stuff out of?
- 1:19:54Speaker 1: His head because when you go up to the. TRADE
- 1:19:55Speaker 1: downline i think you have that in, your head like
- 1:19:57Speaker 1: you don't know where you're, gonna be and now, You,
- 1:19:59Speaker 1: know okay this Is where i'm. Gonna be i'm gonna
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: finish the season with. The TWINS so i think that's
- 1:20:03Speaker 1: more of a. GOOD thing i think that's gonna give
- 1:20:06Speaker 1: him a little bit more focused again and, Be, like
- 1:20:08Speaker 1: OKAY now i KNOW where. I am i'm, Gonna focus
- 1:20:10Speaker 1: i'm gonna finish off. The Season and ryan has been
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: really good. This year two point EIGHT two era point
- 1:20:15Speaker 1: nine to two whip. Very good better on the road.
- 1:20:18Speaker 1: As well two point five to ONE road era had
- 1:20:22Speaker 1: a little bit of a, snag RECENTLY and i think
- 1:20:24Speaker 1: it was maybe because Of The all star festivities kind
- 1:20:27Speaker 1: of maybe throwing them off a. Little bit but still
- 1:20:29Speaker 1: over the Month of july two POINT seventy ra thirty
- 1:20:32Speaker 1: three to four strike a walk ratio that was. All
- 1:20:34Speaker 1: good he had an uneven Start against washington where you
- 1:20:37Speaker 1: gave up four, earned runs went, five innings but he
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: still struck out five and only. Walked one so he
- 1:20:43Speaker 1: got a little bit unlucky in that game where it
- 1:20:44Speaker 1: was like most of the base runners that reached scored
- 1:20:47Speaker 1: six hits one walk not really, terrible There so i'll
- 1:20:51Speaker 1: give him a little bit of pass. For that cleveland's offense,
- 1:20:54Speaker 1: is BAD as i already, showed You and ryan has
- 1:20:56Speaker 1: dominated them in eighty two, at bats thirteen to four
- 1:21:00Speaker 1: streke a walk ratio one eighty three average allowed five sixty.
- 1:21:03Speaker 1: Two OPS so I, think ryan if he's focused and
- 1:21:06Speaker 1: he wants to show up and he's on, his game
- 1:21:09Speaker 1: he should do well Here. Against cleveland it is a.
- 1:21:11Speaker 1: DIVISIONAL rival, i mean you're still gonna, Come out you're
- 1:21:13Speaker 1: still gonna want to try to win. This Game, GAVIN williams,
- 1:21:16Speaker 1: i think will try to show up, as well even
- 1:21:18Speaker 1: though he's a somewhat weak PITCHER and i really don't
- 1:21:21Speaker 1: like his whip. At all three point five to one era,
- 1:21:23Speaker 1: is good though one point three to seven whip obviously.
- 1:21:26Speaker 1: Not good but he's been better, at home so we
- 1:21:28Speaker 1: get the advantage of both home road splits here three
- 1:21:31Speaker 1: point oh five and this month he's had a three
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: point OH, three ERA which i can't argue that much
- 1:21:38Speaker 1: with that twenty nine to fifteen streke a, WALK ratio
- 1:21:41Speaker 1: i will take issue. WITH that, i mean that walk rate,
- 1:21:43Speaker 1: is terrible but he's settled down in the last. Two
- 1:21:47Speaker 1: starts it was Against the a's who actually have a
- 1:21:49Speaker 1: pretty good Lineup In kansas city who. Do not but
- 1:21:52Speaker 1: in those two starts he went, thirteen innings struck, out
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: fourteen which is a, decent sign and only had three
- 1:21:59Speaker 1: walks over those over, that span only allowed three ear
- 1:22:02Speaker 1: runs total and, Nine hits so he is actually in
- 1:22:05Speaker 1: good form over the last, two starts and over that
- 1:22:08Speaker 1: last four starts he didn't allow more than three earned
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: runs in. Any start he's only allowed more than three
- 1:22:13Speaker 1: earned runs once over the last, two months and it
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: Was At wrigley field against a Really good, Cub lineup
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: so that's not really that Bad For. GAVIN williams, i
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: mean his team is obviously not. WINNING behind i mean
- 1:22:24Speaker 1: they've lost seven of his last nine starts because their.
- 1:22:27Speaker 1: Offense reeks, BUT still, i mean he's, pitching well and
- 1:22:31Speaker 1: you look at his Numbers, against minnesota which they're not
- 1:22:33Speaker 1: a very threatening. Lineup EITHER and I believe minnesota they
- 1:22:36Speaker 1: Just traded, correa, away right so that's gonna. HELP out
- 1:22:39Speaker 1: i think with our, under, here man you got some
- 1:22:41Speaker 1: offensive pieces that have been, moving here, Moving AWAY so
- 1:22:44Speaker 1: I think i'm Pretty Sure carlos correa went back To.
- 1:22:47Speaker 1: The astros by, the way speaking Of the astros not
- 1:22:50Speaker 1: having a, GOOD lineup i don't Know if corey is
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: gonna be, there yet but that should Help the, astros
- 1:22:55Speaker 1: lineup and That means minnesota's lineup is gonna be without
- 1:22:57Speaker 1: one of their. Better hitters that's not Gonna help minnesota
- 1:23:01Speaker 1: their offense here And, against williams this lineup has not
- 1:23:05Speaker 1: done well against him in forty four, at bats, eleven strikeouts,
- 1:23:08Speaker 1: three walks only one. Extra base he had a Double,
- 1:23:11Speaker 1: from jeffers who's done okay against them four, for ten
- 1:23:13Speaker 1: but he's onto a one to fifty nine average and
- 1:23:15Speaker 1: three to ninety five. Ohps overall so very very weak
- 1:23:19Speaker 1: offensive numbers on both sides of the. Equation Here so
- 1:23:22Speaker 1: i'm gonna do, it under not, do it but give
- 1:23:26Speaker 1: it out as a play at least Under in Cleveland
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: and minnesota in. That Game go royals There at toronto
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: And then Boston For. Kansas, city, YEAH well I mean
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: i have to kind of root Against the royals a
- 1:23:41Speaker 1: little bit right just to get knocked out of. Contention
- 1:23:44Speaker 1: there But The red sox still have to CONTEND with,
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: i mean who else are they contending with, for wildcred
- 1:23:49Speaker 1: they're CONTENDING with I guess seattle, right now and they're Contending.
- 1:23:52Speaker 1: WITH texas, i mean that's. Not good both of those
- 1:23:55Speaker 1: teams might be better Than The, red sox So the
- 1:23:57Speaker 1: texas certainly not, better OFFENSIVELY but i Think The red
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: sox are up. AGAINST it i don't think they're gonna
- 1:24:02Speaker 1: make the playoffs and the Final play you guys are
- 1:24:05Speaker 1: not gonna. LIKE it, I mean i'm a. Contrarian man
- 1:24:07Speaker 1: people are not gonna like. This one and it Is
- 1:24:09Speaker 1: The San FRANCISCO giants sf The struggling fox or whatever
- 1:24:16Speaker 1: money Line Baby San francisco giants plus one twenty Against.
- 1:24:20Speaker 1: The mets i'm. Going there i'm. DOING it i think
- 1:24:23Speaker 1: the spot is actually good for. This man i'm looking at, the.
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: Market reeb you don't see a whole lot, going on
- 1:24:28Speaker 1: and it looks like it's gonna be a low scoring.
- 1:24:30Speaker 1: Game though total up a little bit from seven juice
- 1:24:32Speaker 1: to the over seven and a half juice to the
- 1:24:34Speaker 1: under but it's a very small, tick upward very, low
- 1:24:37Speaker 1: total so that means that the underdog has a better
- 1:24:39Speaker 1: chance to hang in. The game mets up for minus
- 1:24:43Speaker 1: one thirty seven of minus one thirty eight here battle.
- 1:24:46Speaker 1: Of lefties we do have the better Bullpen On san.
- 1:24:48Speaker 1: Francisco side even though their bullpen has been. Worse recently
- 1:24:51Speaker 1: they're still THIRD in whip and they have A, low
- 1:24:54Speaker 1: RARA so i think they're second in the, ra still
- 1:24:56Speaker 1: so that's still. QUITE Good a mets bullpen has STARTED
- 1:24:59Speaker 1: to i don't even know where they're, At here, Mets
- 1:25:02Speaker 1: bullpen where the hell are they other nineteenth NOW, in
- 1:25:05Speaker 1: whip ALTHOUGH their era is a little bit better, Than
- 1:25:07Speaker 1: That but mets very mediocre bullpen. Right now bullpen edge
- 1:25:10Speaker 1: definitely Goes To. San francisco offense goes To, the, mets
- 1:25:15Speaker 1: obviously But the mets have fallen down to the eleventh OFFENSE,
- 1:25:18Speaker 1: in ops which is. Not, terrific obviously We Know san
- 1:25:22Speaker 1: francisco's offense is a nightmare down at, twenty fourth BUT
- 1:25:25Speaker 1: still i like pitching BETTER than i like, Hitting man
- 1:25:28Speaker 1: so that's part of what we're going. With Here the
- 1:25:30Speaker 1: mets are returning over from a road trip where they
- 1:25:32Speaker 1: Went To san francisco by, the way And Swept. San
- 1:25:34Speaker 1: francisco so guess what, this, Is baby this is Revenge
- 1:25:38Speaker 1: For san francisco. Road revenge quick. Road revenge you don't
- 1:25:42Speaker 1: see this very often when your team just got swept
- 1:25:45Speaker 1: at home and now you're going to that opponent almost
- 1:25:48Speaker 1: right away who just. Swept, you YEAH so i think
- 1:25:51Speaker 1: it might be a bad spot For the. Mets, here
- 1:25:53Speaker 1: man they did just GET swept i understand That By.
- 1:25:56Speaker 1: San diego but they're returning home, cross country which is.
- 1:26:00Speaker 1: Difficult spot you have to return. Home again it's an.
- 1:26:02Speaker 1: Unfocused spot typically you have family life to. GET to
- 1:26:05Speaker 1: i Know the mets are Battling with philadelphia for the division.
- 1:26:07Speaker 1: Right Now san francisco still has a, decent record but
- 1:26:12Speaker 1: they're below five hundred now, at Least so mets might
- 1:26:15Speaker 1: not take, them serious EVEN though i know the records don't.
- 1:26:17Speaker 1: Look Good the giants are below five hundred on. The
- 1:26:19Speaker 1: road mets have a really good. HOME record i. Get
- 1:26:21Speaker 1: it the public is probably only gonna want to look
- 1:26:23Speaker 1: one way here Because the giants have looked. OFF one,
- 1:26:26Speaker 1: i know we're stepping in front of. This train giants
- 1:26:29Speaker 1: after getting swept By the mets got Swept by pittsburgh six.
- 1:26:32Speaker 1: Straight losses but what better then when you get swept
- 1:26:37Speaker 1: in home like that and you have to listen to
- 1:26:38Speaker 1: you know the media say you suck. And whatever what
- 1:26:41Speaker 1: better than to just go out on. The road, fuck
- 1:26:44Speaker 1: that forget about all. Of that go on, the road
- 1:26:47Speaker 1: anger in your in, your, heart man go out and
- 1:26:50Speaker 1: face that team that just swept you two series ago
- 1:26:52Speaker 1: in your. Home stadium go out and try to do
- 1:26:55Speaker 1: the same. To. Them MAN so i think even though
- 1:26:56Speaker 1: they're traveling cross country, as well both, teams are but
- 1:27:00Speaker 1: it's a return home spot versus a road trip. Start
- 1:27:04Speaker 1: spot so the start of the road trip is always
- 1:27:07Speaker 1: the more, focused spot almost always than the return. Home
- 1:27:10Speaker 1: spot and, especially Again the mets Might Take san francisco
- 1:27:13Speaker 1: more lightly because they've been ass recently And the mets
- 1:27:15Speaker 1: just Swept Them. San francisco, to me it seems like
- 1:27:19Speaker 1: they're still trying to do something. This. YEAR man i
- 1:27:21Speaker 1: don't think they were really sellers at the. Trade deadline
- 1:27:23Speaker 1: They got devers, over there so they're trying to do.
- 1:27:26Speaker 1: Something HERE so i still think. They're TRYING so i
- 1:27:30Speaker 1: like how that. Lines up and then the starting. Pitching
- 1:27:32Speaker 1: matchup i'm gonna give the slight Nod To robbie ray
- 1:27:36Speaker 1: with the starting. Pitching matchup this is mostly a situational play, for,
- 1:27:39Speaker 1: Me Though. ROBBIE ray i like what he's done this
- 1:27:42Speaker 1: season better THAN what I what i've seen Out. Of
- 1:27:43Speaker 1: peterson two point nine TO, three era one point one,
- 1:27:46Speaker 1: four whip really nice Numbers. FOR ray i know he's
- 1:27:49Speaker 1: been a little bit worse on the road three POINT,
- 1:27:51Speaker 1: four era but still that's. Pretty, good yes he struggled this,
- 1:27:55Speaker 1: past month three point FIVE two era is still not.
- 1:27:57Speaker 1: That bad twenty four to fourteen strike a. WALK ratio,
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: i know the walk ratio was. Really bad he still
- 1:28:03Speaker 1: only allowed twenty hits in thirty and two, thirds innings
- 1:28:06Speaker 1: which wasn't. That bad but he faced a fucking Gauntlet,
- 1:28:09Speaker 1: Man Arizona, Philadelphia Dodgers. Toronto mets he faced all good
- 1:28:14Speaker 1: offenses over, that man and he still did. FAIRLY well,
- 1:28:18Speaker 1: i mean he only allowed more than tour in runs Once,
- 1:28:20Speaker 1: against toronto which, was, like yeah it was on, the
- 1:28:22Speaker 1: road BUT still i think it was also a bit
- 1:28:24Speaker 1: distracted because that was the game coming out Of The
- 1:28:26Speaker 1: all star breaks and he got named To The all,
- 1:28:28Speaker 1: star team which was either the first or second time
- 1:28:32Speaker 1: that happened. For him he didn't pitch in, the game
- 1:28:34Speaker 1: but that might have been a bit of a distraction around. That,
- 1:28:36Speaker 1: time TOO so i think maybe he'll come back. Into
- 1:28:38Speaker 1: FORM every, i know his walk rate went. Way up
- 1:28:41Speaker 1: that's not looking. That good he's walked three or more
- 1:28:44Speaker 1: and three of his last. Four, STARTS yes i do worry,
- 1:28:46Speaker 1: about that but over the course of the season hasn't been.
- 1:28:49Speaker 1: LIKE that i think we can kind of understand it
- 1:28:51Speaker 1: based on the caliber of offenses he. Was facing, but AGAIN
- 1:28:54Speaker 1: like i just showed You the mets of the team
- 1:28:56Speaker 1: that he, just faced, which, again yeah it does mean
- 1:28:59Speaker 1: That the mets are more familiar, with them but that's
- 1:29:01Speaker 1: gonna be the case with both of these. Starting, pitchers
- 1:29:03Speaker 1: man they both have the same disadvantage because both of
- 1:29:06Speaker 1: these starting pitchers just face that, opposing lineup so that
- 1:29:09Speaker 1: is kind of. A wash ray Against the mets ninety
- 1:29:13Speaker 1: four at bats has a pretty good twenty six to
- 1:29:15Speaker 1: five strike a walk ratio. Against them despite all those
- 1:29:19Speaker 1: walks in the last outing two fifty five average allowed
- 1:29:22Speaker 1: is quite low eight twenty. FIVE ohps i understand that.
- 1:29:24Speaker 1: Is high he's allowed five home runs, to them, but,
- 1:29:27Speaker 1: Still overall i'm gonna say those numbers aren't, that BAD
- 1:29:30Speaker 1: and i think they're better than what we get Out Of,
- 1:29:32Speaker 1: david PETERSON who i still Don't. TRUST peterson i know
- 1:29:35Speaker 1: his numbers. Look good two point EIGHT three era obviously is.
- 1:29:38Speaker 1: Very good one point two to five whip isn't even,
- 1:29:41Speaker 1: that high although it's Still. WITH peterson i still think
- 1:29:44Speaker 1: it's indicative that something is not quite There. With peterson
- 1:29:48Speaker 1: he just gets out of jams with ground balls. And
- 1:29:50Speaker 1: SHIT but i know he's done it for a couple
- 1:29:53Speaker 1: of seasons in a. Row now he's really good at
- 1:29:55Speaker 1: all them. THIS year, i know one point NINE one
- 1:29:57Speaker 1: era not really something you necessarily want to fade. Very
- 1:30:00Speaker 1: often his team has won three of his last, four
- 1:30:02Speaker 1: starts But in june he wasn't. That good they lost
- 1:30:04Speaker 1: four or five starts from there this. Past month one POINT, five,
- 1:30:09Speaker 1: era yeah that's, really good but eighteen to seven strike
- 1:30:12Speaker 1: a walk race is not exactly. That good he Just Faced.
- 1:30:15Speaker 1: San FRANCISCO like, i said he did better in that
- 1:30:17Speaker 1: Start than. Ray DID ray i think walk, three guys
- 1:30:22Speaker 1: but So Did. David peterson he walked three Guys Against.
- 1:30:25Speaker 1: San francisco in the Start Against san francisco, as well
- 1:30:28Speaker 1: though he allowed, fewer runs he did have the better,
- 1:30:30Speaker 1: overall start but it wasn't by that much, SO yeah,
- 1:30:34Speaker 1: I mean i'm gonna fade On the mets just because
- 1:30:36Speaker 1: of the, spot HERE but i think we could do
- 1:30:38Speaker 1: it with this pitching matchup as Well. THE mets, i
- 1:30:40Speaker 1: know or, Excuse me peterson against the mess that's NOT
- 1:30:43Speaker 1: what i wanted. To do PETERSON against i, was like
- 1:30:45Speaker 1: how are they so unfamiliar? With them Against? The giants
- 1:30:47Speaker 1: fifty nine, at bats he has a really atrocious thirteen
- 1:30:51Speaker 1: to twelve strike at walk ratio. Against Him so rays
- 1:30:54Speaker 1: strike out walk ratio in the matchup lineup matchup here
- 1:30:58Speaker 1: is a lot Better. Than Peterson's and peterson's allowed worse
- 1:31:01Speaker 1: numbers across the board three thirty nine average and eight
- 1:31:04Speaker 1: ninety one. Oh ps so that's. Not Good so i'm
- 1:31:07Speaker 1: gonna go ahead and SAY that i think we get
- 1:31:10Speaker 1: a nice price here On the giants as, an underdog
- 1:31:12Speaker 1: give it. THE spot I think ray does have the
- 1:31:14Speaker 1: slight matchup. ADVANTAGE here i think we get the better
- 1:31:17Speaker 1: Pitching For san francisco across, the BOARD and i don't
- 1:31:19Speaker 1: think THERE'S really, i mean there's an advantage For the mets,
- 1:31:22Speaker 1: hitting WISE but i don't think it's, that MUCH and
- 1:31:24Speaker 1: i think it could be kind of a negated a
- 1:31:28Speaker 1: bit by how distracted they might be in. The spot
- 1:31:30Speaker 1: so that's. A play i know it doesn't, look good
- 1:31:32Speaker 1: but that's the other way that, it is Betting On.
- 1:31:35Speaker 1: San francisco, all, right well hopefully we get. It. Done
- 1:31:38Speaker 1: man please don't come and, you know yell at me
- 1:31:41Speaker 1: if if something else, happens, here man because you know
- 1:31:45Speaker 1: you don't win, every, play man especially as an underdog.
- 1:31:47Speaker 1: Like that you're only saying that you think that they're
- 1:31:49Speaker 1: probably gonna win about not even maybe fifty percent of,
- 1:31:52Speaker 1: the time but slightly less than fifty percent of the,
- 1:31:55Speaker 1: time almost because you're trying to just profit on. These
- 1:31:57Speaker 1: PLAYS and i know my players haven't gone that well
- 1:31:59Speaker 1: recent but we're trying to beat the. Profit, margin man that's.
- 1:32:03Speaker 1: The goal try to get about fifty four percent basically
- 1:32:06Speaker 1: on plays that are at minus one ten but at
- 1:32:08Speaker 1: plus one twenty a little bit, different anyway my plays
- 1:32:11Speaker 1: one MORE Time Wnba chicago sky plus five and. A
