  Speaker 1: All system's gone clear, the lift up?
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: What is up, everybody?
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: We got us a big Tuesday day of baseball, big
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: eleven games on the two sites here tonight. I got
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: my friend Fantasy Tips Matt here with me. We're gonna
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: break this late down today and see if we can
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: dole us up some winners and get some of that
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: big cheese that Luke that's out there in the field
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: here today. But Matt Man, it's been like two weeks.
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: We normally do shows together on Thursday. I know you're
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: you switch with Nates big Nads, you'll be uh, He's
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: gonna be on your Friday for you.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: But man, it's been like two Thursdays.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: We had like no games on during the day, so
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: we didn't get a chance to chat. But hey, I
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: gotta give you kudos. I know your boys are out too,
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: But that was fun. The Pistons and Cavs series. I
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: did get to go to Game seven. My boy Nolsman
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: was in town and springs and buys us eight tickets
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: right behind the Cavs bench, which I know I sent
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: you a shot or too, but hey, it was pretty fun.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: Good time going to that.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: A lot of celebrities walk around I was kind of
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: surprised and all them women dressed to the nines trying
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: to get the attention to them basketball players.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: Kind of hilarious to watch, but yeah, good times.
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: Glad to be backing on with you, Matt. Like I said,
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: it's been a while, but what's going on my friend?
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Bro thought about that too. Haven't been on in
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: a minute because of the Thursday lack of game, So
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: jumped at the chance to get on here today with
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: you because I figured we'd have a full slate to
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: talk about. That's the other thing about the Thursday slates.
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: A lot of times they're like smaller slates as opposed
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: to Tuesday. You get these big boys, so excited to
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: talk this out with you. It has been like a
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: couple of weeks. The Calves Piston series was fun. Seems
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: like forever ago as a Cavs fan, considering how pathetic
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: they looked in the Eastern Conference finals, but they did
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: get there. I'll give them their kudos there. But back
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: to baseball, which is the better sport anyways, and got
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: a ton of games tonight. Know why their concerns anywhere? Yeah, man,
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: just looking forward to breaking this one down with you.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you this slate's kind of rough. Man.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: When you're looking at it, it's like nothing really jumps
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: out on the page on really either side of the ball,
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: bats or on the mounta tonight. Like normally you got
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: you know something glaring, you know, Dodgers Yankee something, you know,
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: the team total's real high, or you know, Cords game
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: or something like that, or you know, one of these
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: high It seems like literally, you know, just kind of
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: just looking at it, you know, from a broadview, like
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: there's probably ten to a dozen pitchers you could legitimately
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: make arguments for that are all definitely in play.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: And I think there's like ten offenses you can legitimately play.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: I know we got eleven games, twenty two teams, but man,
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: I think it's it's it's one of those slates. Today
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: was actually kind of hard, you know, because you're looking
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: at it and you're like, I don't know if I
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: like that or this or that. I mean, there was
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: a few things that I think we're all clad in
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: the close in the same bucket. So really today I'm
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: not really worried about ownership. Really today I don't feel
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: I think maybe the chalkiest piece could be maybe Grayson
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: Rodriguez on DKY, maybe Bobby Witt, you know, on on
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: the bat side, like maybe as possible.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: It doesn't really seem like anything's glaring today. But Matt,
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: I think pitching's kind of tough to be honest with.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: I think we got three dudes up at the top.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: I think stand out Schlitzler, Harrison, and then I think
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: Gilbert is going to be in play. But I mean,
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: you got Barton in there, you could kind of throw
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: in the mix as a top starter. But I mean,
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: for me, it kind of lies within them three guys there, Harrison, Schlittler,
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: and then Logan Gilbert, who's looked pretty good in here
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: in times like Gilbert's get the discount is why I
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: think you'll see a little bit more people hopping on him.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: But Harrison's been pretty good here in recent times. But yeah,
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: I think Schlitzler is in a pretty good spot here
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: today against the against your gets your club down there.
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: But man, there's nothing really stands out. I think you
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: can make arguments, you know, for for really any of
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: these three guys to be the top pitcher today.
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: What do you think I'm with you? I think there's
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: a lot of mid just all over this slate to
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: kind of your point that, like there isn't much that
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: stands out anywhere. I think those three guys you mentioned
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: are the three pictures that I'm gonna be looking at
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: up top. For sure. Schlitler, he's just the best. He's
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: one of the best pictures in base ball. You know.
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: For my money, the best picture on this slate would
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: have said Logan Gilbert coming into the season, but Schlittler's
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: overtaking him in my opinion, So yeah, he looks good.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: Gilbert is my number two just because of the price tag.
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: Harrison's been better than Gilbert so far this year, but
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: I'm not necessarily buying that going forward. I'll take the
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: twelve hundred dollars savings between Gilbert and Harrison, even though
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: wouldn't fall anyone at all for playing Harrison himself. I
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: don't hate Yavaldi at ninety five hundred just because you're
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: gonna get a big ownership gap, but there's a project
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: like there's a projection gap as well, so you know
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: that going in. Other than that, like Martin is too expensive, Goussman,
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: you know, hate the matchup and he's not cheap. It's
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: really those three guys up top for me, and I
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: like Gilbert and Schlitler more than Harrison personally.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: I think Martin.
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: I see a couple of people mentioned in Martin in
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: the chat. You know, Martin used to be a guy
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: that was cheap, right like, I mean, and he'd roll out.
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: I mean, the dude's was really good. He's in the
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: top ten and in a lot of the pitching stats
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: so far this season. But I mean now he's he's
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: bumped up a little bit. I mean, he's been really
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: good against against righty's, his strikeouts so far at twenty
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: five percent against lefties. But I think the Twins are
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: gonna throw six seven lefties at him here today, So
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: that's not as stronger, that's not as stronger type of
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: a lineup that he's gonna face today.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: So with his price.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: Getting bumped up, and with with what the Twins are
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: gonna throw at him with all the lefties, I just
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: I don't I don't put him in the same category
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: as like Schlitler and Harrison and Gilbert. I mean, he's there,
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: he's right there, but I don't think for me he's
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: a great pivot off those guys like if you, I mean,
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: he's in play. That's why I said, I think there's
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: a lot of pitchers in play today. I mean there's
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: really nobody that you know, you can you say it
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: stands out you cross them out.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: Or yeah, those are the top guys in my opinion
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: on any of it. Really.
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: So would you play Evaldi or Martin? First?
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: Mmm? Evaldi has just been worrying me here lately.
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: Martin's definitely been better.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I would you know what, I'd probably go
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: Martin just because it just seems like the sunshine and
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: on the on the White Sox ass too so far
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: this year too, So I mean, they can't do anything wrong, right,
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: so I feel like he's in a decent spot to
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: get a win. I mean, you know, they've been pretty good.
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: I just you know, it's just, uh, I mean it's
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: a division game. Martin's been good. I mean, Martin was
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: the guy who was like seven and eight thousand. Now
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: you know, now he's bumped up, you know, to the
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: higher price range. So it just it just kind of
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: looks like a sticker shock to me. I think is
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: probably more so what it is than anything else. So
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: but yeah, I would go Martin over Evaldi.
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I get it. I mean I don't have a
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: strong take there because I probably won't play either. But
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: Martin's definitely been better, so I don't like I couldn't
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: argue with that.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So I mean, let's just real quick, we'll look
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: at uh, let's just look at like Ak and above here, Matt,
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: if you want to just start with the from AK,
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: move on up. Let me know what you think if
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: you just cross him off, if you know, you leave
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: him in your pool.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: However you feel about it. But let's run Ak and above.
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel similarly to how you do. Like it's
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: the guys you mentioned. I mean it's Harrison, Schlitzler, Gilbert,
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: not in that order for me. It's Schlittler, Gilbert, Harrison
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: for me, and then Ivaldi. Martin is pivots like Gousman,
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: No thanks, hate the matchup. You know, I like Gouslan
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: in general, but not in this spot at that tag.
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: Martin and Ievaldi I think are just too pricey. So
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: like Elder is also too pricey for the spot he's in,
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: you know, as much as like I don't love Schlitler,
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: Gilbert or Harrison here, but I like them enough to
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: make me not really want to play anyone else on
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: this slate, Like if I'm handbuilding and you know, the
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: obvious other guy is Grayson Rodriguez, which we'll get to
• 9:18
  Speaker 4: when we talk about the next group of pitching. So
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: my pitching pool is going to be pretty limited tonight.
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think down below there's a few guys that
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: do stand out that I think you could play. I
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: mean we could jump down there below a K. I
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: mean you got you know, starting with with Sarroak up
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: at the top. I'm not really interested in picking on
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: the Dodgers, not too many people are. And then McDonald,
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: I don't really want to pick on the Brewers.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: Can Tello against the Yankees, no thing.
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: Cameron maybe I think about him, but he just hasn't
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: been good enough. I think I think he could be
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: in some trouble there with some of the Red today.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: I think I think may could be a decent pivot
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: off of Rodriguez if you wanted to go there. Uh,
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: but you know, all these other guys are you know,
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: I wouldn't say they're terrible plays, but nobody really stands out.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: I mean, he got jump who came up. He's kind
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: of cheap, ended up.
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: Having what I think five k's gave up a four
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: runs in his first game. I know, you know, I
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: think he was with four k when he came out.
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: I mean he's fairly cheap. I mean, if you wanted
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: to leave a cheaper guy in the pool, if you're
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: playing a bunch of lineups, I don't mind him.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: Abbott.
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: I'm not really a fan of his low k rate,
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: gives up too many fly balls. I don't think that's
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: really where I want. Grayson Rodriguez, I think, is the
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: guy that's going to get a lot of run. I know,
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: he pitched against the Tigers the last time he was
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: out on the mound, and uh, you know they were
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: churching him up on the broadcast, you know, that highly
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: touted prospect. They literally were talking about trading Grayson Rodriguez
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: and like Kobe Mayo for Trek Skoubel a couple of
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: years ago. So they were like revisiting that, Matt like
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: talking about, like, you know what we had been good
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: because at the time, the Orioles had you know, one
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: of the top you know, minor league systems with what Norby, Mayo, Kowser,
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: you know, all the guys holiday. Yeah, so they were
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: talking about, you know, if that trade was made, Grayson
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: Rodriguez was gonna be one of the main pieces. So yeah,
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: I mean, I think he's in a decent Spotriguez. This
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: has not been really good here in recent times for me.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: I mean, the strikeouts don't really seem.
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: To be there. I mean, I don't know, I don't
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: love it.
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: If he's going to be that Chalky. I think I'd
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: rather play Dustin May, to tell you the truth. I mean,
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: Dustin May looked pretty good last time out seven innings.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: I think he had no hit ball seven k's looked
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: pretty good. So I don't mind him. I think he's
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: in a decent spot. He would be the pivot off
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: with Grayson Rodriguez. I'm not sure if Grayson how much
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: ownership he's gonna garner, but you know he's Projeck to
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: be one of the highest owned pitchers today.
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think Grayson might be the highest owned just
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: because of the price tag the matchup. I get your concerns,
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: like he hasn't been great, you know, I know, he
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: kind of just came back a few starts ago, is
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: coming off his best start though, as you've mentioned against
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: the Tigers last time out, and now in an even
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: better spot at home against the Rockies. All your concerns,
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: in my opinion, are kind of mitigated by the fact
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: that he's sixty five hundred. That said, he is also
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: going to be owned, so like, I get why you
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: wouldn't want to play him. I don't really love may either,
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: so I'm hesitant to go there. But he's the natural
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: pivot and he's been solid enough this year. And I
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: think you can easily spend up. You know, there aren't
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: that many like crazy expensive stacks, especially with Judge out
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: of the lineup. You know, Casey has a high total
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: with a lot of cheap guys, so I don't think
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: you have to spend down either. I like Rodorguez more
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: than you, but I certainly under stand your concerns.
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think like you said, I think there's really
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: no there's not too many bets that.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: You feel like you got to pay up for today.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: So I don't know, it's almost one of them days.
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: A lot of times I feel like in recent times
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: where I feel like I want to just start with
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: my stacks and kind of see what I got left
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: for some pitching. But I think today is one of
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: those days where you know, I think it's gonna be
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: spread out enough you don't have to be too concerned
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: really about ownership on either side. I mean, Grayson Rodriguez
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: probably be one of the highest done players on the slate.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: I don't know, Bobby Wit may give.
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: Him some contention. He's just been he's been good, gotta
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: he projects well, so I think between them too. But yeah,
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: so give me your give me your like top five pitchers,
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: you know, with salary included.
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: We'll say Schlitler, Gilbert Rodriguez, Harrison, and number five will go. Yeah,
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: my pool's kind of four deep. I guess today we
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: will go with man that's tough. I'll go with the talent,
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: and I'll say Gousman. But it's it's really those four
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: guys for me. Schlitzler, Gilbert Rodriguez, Harrison.
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, those are those are the ones I like. I
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: think I throw Martin in there also, and then May
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: I think would be a couple of guys that I'd
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: probably add to that pool. But I mean, there's a
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: handful of guys you could definitely play today.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: I mean, don't let us talk you off anybody. I mean,
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: I think I think the slate will have a lower
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: you know price.
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: Pitcher definitely probably be up in the in the top
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: of the tournaments today. I just I don't necessarily feel
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: like you have to build with two top pictures. There's
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: a lot of opportunities for some of these guys to
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: throw up you know, twenty points seven to twenty points
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: seventeen points I think, which could get the job done today.
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: But yeah, interesting slate for sure. As far as pitching,
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: nothing like really to me, like really stood out. But uh,
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: definitely interesting one, that's for sure. But let's say, uh,
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: let's say hi to a few of the people in
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: the Uh in the chat. We got Sean, we got
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: big g little Neck, Philly, Fantom, Chris in the house,
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: heart O three k B in the house, William in
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: the house, Adam is here, we got William, we got Jake, Taco, Todd,
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: Anthony is here. We got all kinds of some familiar
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: faces in here today. But uh, yeah, you know, I
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: think for me, pitching is kind of interesting. I think,
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: you know, no, no bats really are standing out for
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: me today, like like where I feel like, damn, I
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: gotta have them. So yeah, I mean, let's dive into
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: some bats. Let's get into these games. We got the uh,
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: we got the stone pulled up and hey, yesterday Matt,
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: you noticed we changed up our slate.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: Plan a little bit. It's now more AI generated. So
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: you know, we're always looking for feedback. So if you
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: know you love it, you hate it, you like to.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: See something else, whatever else, make sure you know you
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: hit us up and let us know how you feel
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: any kind of changes.
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: We're always trying to make changes for the better. So
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: but yeah, I mean.
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: Some people may like the personal feel like how you
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: know our doing that. We're still throwing up our GPP course,
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: so that will uh, that will be in there as well.
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: So but yeah, new addition to the to the baseball
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: lineup we have here.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: I thought it was pretty cool. Did you check that out? Matt? Sure?
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: Dad like it a lot, and it just makes sense
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: to kind of keep that up going forward. So yeah,
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: I'm a fan.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah it look it looked good.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: I mean had basically all the I mean, when you're
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: looking at a slate plan like you and I have done,
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: and you know everybody's played baseball some days, you just
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: don't have the time to dive in. Man, you want
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: the quick give me all the quick you know, give me,
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: give me all the quick parameters, real quick, let me
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: know what I'm looking at.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: And I think that's a pretty good place to start.
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: Gives you the weather, you know who has projected here,
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: the top stacks, bats, gives you some value plays, all
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: kinds of good stuff. So definitely think I think that
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: was a good addition.
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: Not that I didn't like doing that.
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: I mean it was back in the day, Matt you
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: had to type in all the names and then look
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: up all the salaries. That was kind of more of
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: a pain in the pain in the butt. But got
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: it all automated now, so definitely pretty cool. But let's
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: just run through some of these games here. We got
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: the top game here on the slate. We got the
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: Guardians Indians versus the Yankees. Get the Yankees minus two
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: fifty with a five and a half run total. We
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: got Schlitler on the mound against Joey Cantino. Yankees lineup
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: does look like it's confirmed. We got obviously a lefty.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: On the mound for the Indians.
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: We got Ben Rice at the top Bellinger looked like
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: they went righty, lefty, alrighty lefty. All the way down
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: the line up here. But I mean most people were
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: probably going to start and say, oh, Yankees one of
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: the top staffs here today. They are one of the
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: best teams against left handed pitching, so I think they
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: have the most homers, they have one of the highest ops's,
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: one of the highest slugging percentages. They are pretty good offense,
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: as we know, especially against lefties. But anything stand out
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: here to where you got the Yankees.
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think Antio is a good pitcher, but obviously
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: a tough spot from going into Yankee Stadium to face
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: the Yankees. Now you don't have Aaron Judge tonight, so
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: boon to him or boost to him, excuse me, and
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: you makes it makes you not like the Yankees as much,
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: especially on the slate where we're kind of craving elite
• 18:45
  Speaker 4: hitters and Judge would have been one of the top
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: ones off the slate now makes the Yankees easier to stack,
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: Like you can stack the Yankees now and spend up
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: at pitching, which is always desirable. So I think the
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: Yankees are in play for me. The the Cleveland side
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: not so much. I'm not stacking in Schlitzler on a
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: slate like this I think you're better off just fading
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: Schlitler than playing Cleveland here. So it's the Yankees. I
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: don't think they're a must player or anything, but they're
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: definitely in play for me, just looking.
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: At that Yankee lineup.
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: If Judge did get pinch hit, I mean, I would
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: say that Rosario is probably the candidate, I would assume.
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: But yeah, most times, when you sit a guy like Judge,
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: you tell him he's got the whole day off, and
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: you know, unless it's something like at the end of
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: a game that you know he might get in that bet.
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: But yeah, most times that doesn't, that doesn't come into play.
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: But yeah, so what do you think about any of
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: the leverage with the Indians against Schlitler?
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Do you like that at all?
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: Not really. I mean, he's just too good, Like you
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: could just not play Schlitler. You could always play Jay Ram.
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: He steals bases and hits homers. So guys like that
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: always in play. But other than that, I'm good.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: I mean, flyball per centens it up a little bit
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: higher ten percent higher to the left side than to
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: the right side for him. But I mean you're looking
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: at some of the fly ball hitters I mean Manzardo, Sheman,
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: They're in the thirty percent. Jose's thirty five percent. So yeah,
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: I mean those are the guys that I would probably
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: more and less look at. I mean maybe even just
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: like a one off if you wanted to do something
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: you're gonna pay off for Jose, I mean, I mean,
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: Jose is definitely going to be expensive. But yeah, Philly
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: saying judges about hit the il injured his shoulder. Didn't
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: see that yesterday, But that's too bad. I hate when
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: all the top players.
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: Any of them, that's very unfortunate.
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I hate when any of them in the baseball
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: world are out. It just just sucks. But moving on
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: to the next game, we got the Reds and we
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: have the Royals.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: I think this one is going to get some love,
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: especially from the Royal side. Lane Thomas sitting up at
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: the top of that lineup at twenty four hundred twenty
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: two on DK twenty four on fan duel is probably
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: going to be a pretty popular play today. Bobby Wit
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: is always pretty good. But we got the Reds here
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: against no one, can't Noah Cameron the lefty. You know,
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: they've been pretty decent against the lefties. To Sal Stewart
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: Eugeno be pretty good. No Ellie obviously makes this line
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: up a little bit cheaper, But you got any interest
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: in either one of these sides.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: I think they're both in play in my opinion.
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: I agree, I think they're both definitely in play. Cameron
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: has not been good this year, gives up homers Cincinnati
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: in this park definitely in play for me. No Ellie
• 21:41
  Speaker 4: stinks he's on the IL for a couple of weeks,
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: but makes them cheaper so they're easy to fit. And
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: then talk about being cheap. Kansas City is insanely inexpensive,
• 21:52
  Speaker 4: about as cheap of a stack as you'll ever see.
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: They got multiple guys twenty five hundred or last like
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: four or five guys in this lineup at that price point.
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: So yeah, Casey looks like very good. I'm a little
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: worried about their ownership and they are never a team
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: I want to play into ownership, but they look good
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: on paper here. Abbot is not great and this ballpark
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: is very conducive for for hitting, So yeah, I'm in
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: on both teams here for sure.
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Abbot's been pretty bad against right He's twelve percent
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: walk percentage. He is flyball percentage isn't all that bad
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: twenty four percent. He does give up more fly balls
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: to lefties, but I mean his K percentage has been
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: pretty low. So you know, guys like Laane Thomas, Witt, Salvador,
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: He's going to see what five top five of the
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: top six bats are going to be, right, He's he's
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: going to look like I see two or three lefties.
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: But Abbott, you know, been giving up fly balls, been
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: giving up some homers.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: I just I have a hard time playing a team
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: like the Royals.
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: The Royals just, you know, just haven't They just don't
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: seem like they got enough power for me, especially to
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: win a slate with twenty two teams on it.
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: I just I've just always felt that way.
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: Like teams that just don't want to hit homers, I
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: have a hard time with. I mean, like the Brewers
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: are like one of the perfect teams, like they'll win slates,
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: don't get me wrong, but man, like, so far in
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: this last two weeks they got like five home runs,
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: they scored sixteen runs. The other day they only got
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: like five homers. Sure they scored sixteen runs, but I
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: mean they're nickeling and diamond and to death you get
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: a team that's gonna hit three or four homers, that
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: team's gonna be in the you know, at the top
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: of the board, not the Brewers. So I mean, it's
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: just kind of hard for me to play team more.
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: So it's easier to play teams like that on DK
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: than FanDuel. I think FanDuel is more home run chasing
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: than DK is, And sometimes I struggle with that when
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: I go back to DK and not you know, not
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: play more speed and not play more you know, you know,
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: singles and doubles hitters than I do like to do
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: on FanDuel. FanDuel to me, I just feel like I'm
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: chasing homers. So it's harder for me to stack up
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: teams like the Royals that just don't seem to be
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: hitting homers, but they do great out pretty well today.
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: But I'd just rather fade them on on on days
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: like that. So for me, I'm just I'm gonna I'm
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: gonna leave them alone, but I'm not gonna be stacking
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: up the roads. But Bobby Witt is definitely good play
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: and like I said, if you want to use a
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: one off lane, Thomas is definitely a guy that you
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: could use pretty cheap on both sides.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: Here today, But what do we got here? The next game?
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: We got the Blue Jays and the MLB wins leading Braves.
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: Kunya finally started to hit the ball here recent times,
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: you got Elder against Gossman, two pretty decent pitchers up
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: on the hill today, I mean days. The Braves have
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: been the darling in the last few weeks, been hitting
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: the ball pretty well, especially at Kunya let off the
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: game the other day with the homer. But yeah, I'm
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: not sure. I'm not sure either one's gonna make my
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: top about my top about my top teams today.
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree. It does feel like this game is
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: gonna be under all on all sides. Like Gousman is good,
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: the Braves are good. They're both kind of extensive, so
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: neither side's gonna get owned, but both sides have upside.
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: And I feel similarly about Toronto and Elder. Elder not
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: really in play from a DFS perspective at that price
• 25:17
  Speaker 4: on this slate, but he's a good enough real life
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: pitcher where he's you know, not a guy you love
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: to stack against. But Toronto's a good offense, So yeah,
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: I don't love anything in this game. But if you
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: told me you did, I think it would make sense.
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I think that's what I was kind of,
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: you know, going back to the start, Like, there isn't
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: anything that overly stands out. So I think offense today
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: is gonna be fairly spread out, especially some of the stacks.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: I mean, there are a.
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: Couple that I like that did do stand out. But
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: I'm just picking on some shit pitchers. But you know,
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: then you get a bullpen behind him. You know, like
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: if you want to pick on Eric Lauer today, it's
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: not much fun. You know, who hasn't been good. It's
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: not much fun picking on that Dodger bullpen after that.
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: But I mean we'll get there when these games come up. Yeah, Todd,
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: You're right, Knaves is gonna have an andeurism. He loves
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: him some Brewers, we know, he does, you know, I
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: and a lot of times the Brewers are in decent spots.
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: But he does get a little excited about his Brewers sometimes.
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: I got excited about my Tigers when they were winning.
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: I mean as part of being a fan, but I
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: mean in reality, I like teams that are gonna, you know,
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: top of the ops, hitting homers, you know, I mean,
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: those are the teams I want, man Like, I mean,
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: I get it, those teams do win sometimes. I've been
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: saying it for the last I don't know how many
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: years I've been on talking about baseball. I just rather
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: not play bottom of the barrel offensive teams, and even
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: if they're in decent spots. I mean, it is what
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: it is. I just don't like it. I don't feel
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: like they're gonna hit me enough homers to win. So
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: if that beats me, it beats me.
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: I live with it.
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: I mean, it is what it is. I just I've
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: always played that way. I just can't do it.
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I had no arguments to that. I know that's
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: how you play, and I think that is that. I
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: think that there's a lot worse ways to play than
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: not playing the shit teams, you know what I mean? Right?
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: I just feel like like I just feel like my.
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: Odds, Like I feel like, what's my odds of winning here?
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: Ten to one, forty to one, twenty to one? Like
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: am I getting You know, in a GPP, you're gonna
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: get paid for that. But like if I'm stacking up
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: a Yankee team who's gonna be fifty percent own, then
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: I feel like, Okay, I'd just rather be contrarian or
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: still stay on the good teams instead of me taking
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: a chance on the Yankees versus the Royals in a
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: slugfest like that don't make any dance sense to my brain,
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: like it just never has. So I'd just rather play
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: teams I know can flip a lineup over. We're looking
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: for them two big innings, right like, I mean, that's
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: what we're looking for. So I mean, if we can
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: get them, chances are you're you're gonna be in the green,
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: which is obviously what we're looking for. I mean, I
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: play two to win, like I feel like, you know,
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: baseball isn't an everyday grime. We're gonna be fifty to
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: fifty win, lose, win, lose. You're gonna lose more than
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: you're gonna win. But when you win, you want to win,
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: like you know, you want to set yourself up to
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: win big, you know, play some of the bottom lineup hitters.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: And do you know we've.
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: Done a good job over the years talking about you know,
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: talking about all that with the ship it members. I
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: you know, it's just it's it's obvious when you see
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: the lineups we see in the discord. You know how
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: people are building their lineups. I mean, I've watched it
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: go from shit over the years to actually now pretty
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: much as everybody's on the same page. There wasn't even
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: a lot of stacking back when. Yeah, right, I know,
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: I walked to school uphill both ways, you know, I know.
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: Matt, But either way, we move on. What is the
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: next game? We got here?
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: We got White Sox Twins. I think this one's interesting.
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: You got Davis Martin, uh here against the Twins. You
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: got Connor pre Lip against against the White Sox. Prelip
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: a lefty. The Twins do have a few lefties in
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: that bullpen as well. Uh you're gonna see a pretty
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: heavy righty lineup here at first. Uh So you might
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: see alrighty come in after that, and then you probably
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: see another lefty. But I mean, White Sox's been pretty good. Vargas,
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: I mean he's a killer.
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: They been good.
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: I don't let's see here. Montgomery Gritchuk has been pretty good.
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: He's a cheap bet against lefties. On the other side,
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: for the Twins, Buxton's just been Buxton. He's been really good.
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: I'm not really as much of a fan of the Twins.
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: In the spot against Martin, I'd rather play Martin. But
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: I think the White Sox have been interesting. They've been
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: a team here that's been been winning. But I mean
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: Vargas and Gritchik I think are pretty good spots.
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't hate that call. I also don't mind this.
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: Jacob Gonzalez in the middle of the White Sox lineup
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: just absolutely was raking in the minors, raking nineteen homers
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: so far this year. So yeah, I don't mind some
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: White Sox pieces. I don't love this game in general.
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: I'm not in on the Twins. I'm with you. I
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: think the White Socks are in play, but not my
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: favorite stack on the board. More pieces, many stacks.
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that you brought up. He was what like two
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: k here the other day. He's probably fairly cheap. Rodriguez.
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: He he's looked pretty good.
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: I know. I think his first at bad I was watching.
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: I think he's number seven if I remember right, And
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: I thought, you know, this rookie came up. He's not
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: wearing fifty seven, he's wearing number seven, so he's got
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: to be pretty good just right there. And then I thought, man,
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: he stroked a couple of them out there against the
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: Tigers the other day out there right field that they
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: thought was gone, and the place was going nuts, and
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: you know they're they're excited that that kid is up there.
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: And uh for the White Sox, I mean, how fast
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: times have turned?
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: Man?
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: The White Sox were like absolutely dog shit, and all
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: of a sudden, you know they're on a dozen games
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: ahead of my Tigers.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: It's like, it's just sickening. I don't even know what
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: to think.
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: But next game we got here, we have the Giants
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: and the brew Crew needs brew crew. We got Kyle
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: Harson against the Giants left he not really too interested
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: too much. Maybe Casey Schmidt at the top of that
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: lineup for the Giants. I mean, I think he's about
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: the only one. Adamis used to be a lefty killer
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: throughout his career. You got Trevor McDonald, who's kind of
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: more of a ground ball lean that that I like.
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: And you know, I always say, we got a game
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: total sitting at seven. You got Trevor McDonald who's got
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: a fifty two percent ground ball rate to lefties, sixty
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: nine ground ball rate to righty's. The Brewers hit the
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: most ground balls of any team in baseball. I always say, Matt,
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: where you're gonna get When you get a ground ball
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: pitcher throwing a bunch of ground ball hitters, You're gonna
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: get a bunch of ground balls. That's what we're gonna
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: get today. I mean, that's just the way it seems
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: to work. But uh, you know, I thinknaids last week, Matt,
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: he went to the bathroom and this case, he went
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: like before his Brewers were up, and I was saying
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: that said the same thing, and then he sat back
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: in the seat, and I was like, acting all quiet.
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: I didn't say nothing bad about your Brewers. I didn't
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: say nothing bad. I don't think they got the job
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: done that night. But seriously, when you get a team
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: that hit ground balls and you got ground ball pitcher,
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: pretty good chance you're gonna get ground ball.
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: But I'm not in on the Brewers here today, but definitely.
• 32:08
  Speaker 4: It was pretty crazy to see them score sixteen runs
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: last night and not be on the winner because to
• 32:13
  Speaker 4: your point, they didn't hit any home runs and I
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: don't even know if they stole any bases. So yeah,
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: I mean THEFS is about home runs and strikeouts, So
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: I'm with you. I don't really like either side in
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: this game. Certainly you would like the Milwaukee side more
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: than San fran but Milwaukee's crazy expensive, and I'm not
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: going back to them tonight after last night's explosion where
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: they didn't even hit any home runs.
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean the Brewers definitely, you know, can hit
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: the ball, put it in play. They're gonna single Nick,
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: you know, w to death. But yeah, I mean they're
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: there minus two hundred four point seventy five team total
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: against against McDonald. I maybe a mini stack. Maybe I
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: just couldn't fought full stack the Brewers on this one.
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: I don't even have them ranked up that high. But
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: the next game we got here, we got another game
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: pretty low total Rangers and Cards, Dusty May against Nathan Valdi.
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: I mean, you could you can get to both of
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: these pitchers here, don't. I don't have either one of
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: these teams ranked up in my rankings today. But May's
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: been looking pretty good. But I mean, of all these
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: given up, you know, it hasn't been all that great,
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: So again, any interest in these teams?
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: You know, I always like going to teams against pitchers
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: that like like May May last, for instance, May last
• 33:42
  Speaker 4: start out went really deep with like a no hit
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: bit and then kind of gave it up and got
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: hit around in that last thing. I always am interested
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: in going to teams against pitchers like that in the
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: next start obviously non elite pitchers, and May it's certainly
• 33:54
  Speaker 4: not elite, but it's hard aget. I'm bored with Texas
• 33:57
  Speaker 4: on such a big slate. All the points you made
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: about Kansas City not himing the power and stuff, I
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: think that goes even more so for Texas against the competent,
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: at least pitcher in May. So I'm good. Saint Louis Nah,
• 34:13
  Speaker 4: if you have all they were getting more ownership maybe
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: because of the leveragement, and he's not. So I don't
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: really see Saint Louis's appeal on this slag personally.
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, of aaldi, I mean he's not really walking. Anybody's
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: k rate's been pretty low. He's gonna get ground balls
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: fifty percent ground ball rate. I mean he has been
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: getting buriled up by left He's at a ten percent
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: rate so far. I mean weather Hold Burlson. Maybe if
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: you're looking for maybe Gorman is a cheap third basement
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: if you're looking for you know, maybe a spot to fill.
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: Maybe you could look something like that, but I don't
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: love it. So let's see here.
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: Moving on, we got the uh An interesting one, actually,
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: I think we got the A's and Cubbies here. We
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: got taie On, who to me, is not very good.
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: I think I'm gonna want attack, uh mister Tyan. I mean,
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: the wind is blowing in in Wrigley about what ten
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: miles an hour, I believe, I mean, but the A's
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: hit right, he's pretty well. Tyon has not looked good
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: at all, So I think he's You know, the A's
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: are definitely a team that I do have a little
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: bit of interest in. I put the A's up there
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: and may maybe one of my top five today against
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: Tyon here, Matt, even with that wind blowing in, I
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: think they can still take advantage. I'm not too worried
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: about that. But man, Tyon's has not been good at all.
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: I think he's definitely someone I'm gonna want to attack.
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: I know, we got a game total of seven and
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: a half. Normally I don't like to jump on teams
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: in that kind of game total. I usually like the
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: aids and nines and you know tens. As we you know,
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: get up there higher. But I think, uh, you know,
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: looking how bad Tian's been. I mean, his K percentage
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: is down. He's walking almost twelve percent of lefties. He's
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: got a three eighty eight woe by the lefties, forty
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: six percent fly ball the lefties, thirty two fly ball
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: the righties. I mean he's been getting buriled up at
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: sixteen percent the lefties, fourteen percent the righties. I mean,
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: he's just not been good. He's like a kickball pitcher.
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: So for me, I think the a's are definitely interesting.
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: And on the other hand, are we really sure we're
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: getting with Gage jump yet? I mean, he did come out,
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: he'd strikeout type arm as we talked about when he
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: was when he came up his first start, we gave
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: up what four runs. I think he had five k's.
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: I mean, but the Cubbies are gonna be able to
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: throw some righties at him, Horner, Bregman, Suzuki Hat, Kelly Swanson.
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: So I mean they're gonna be able to get some
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: to get maybe to get to this kid today. So
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: but I prefer the A side. I think attacking tie.
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: On is going to be kind of fun, But Mad's
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: anything standing you know, and I think too, Matt, Like
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: I look at this game too a lot of times,
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: like if this game was out in Sacramento, how popular
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: would the A's be against.
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: Tay On today? I think they'd be pretty popular.
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: So with that being, I think the A's for me
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: are one of my sneakier sticks.
• 37:05
  Speaker 4: I'm totally with you that this game would be way
• 37:08
  Speaker 4: more popular from both sides of this game was in Sacramento.
• 37:12
  Speaker 4: I guess my only counter to you would be, it's
• 37:15
  Speaker 4: not so like you know what I mean, you know
• 37:17
  Speaker 4: what I mean, Like I get your point for sure,
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: but like it's also not which is like the reason
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: it's not getting a lot of love. That is also
• 37:25
  Speaker 4: something that I take into consideration, Like, you know, just
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: because the weather isn't like ideal, doesn't need these offenses
• 37:32
  Speaker 4: are any worse than if this game were played in
• 37:34
  Speaker 4: Cores or in Sacramento or wherever. And I do think
• 37:38
  Speaker 4: there's upside for both sides here. I don't love either
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: side because I hate taking the A's out of that
• 37:46
  Speaker 4: ballpark now going into a non ideal hitting spot. Tian's
• 37:50
  Speaker 4: not good though, so like I understand why you like
• 37:52
  Speaker 4: the A's, especially a very low ownership, I would presume.
• 37:56
  Speaker 4: Then the Cubs. Yeah, like the Cubs are kind of
• 37:59
  Speaker 4: just a play again Gage Jump, who was really good
• 38:02
  Speaker 4: in the miners. But wouldn't be the first time we've
• 38:04
  Speaker 4: seen a guy be really good in the miners and
• 38:06
  Speaker 4: then struggle once he got called up, you know, like
• 38:08
  Speaker 4: we see that all the time. So yeah, like I
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: get the appeal for both teams. I'm just not sure
• 38:13
  Speaker 4: all personally play either.
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's interesting.
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: I mean, with all the offense we have today, I
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: think they'll definitely be a low offense that could definitely
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: get you.
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: Up there to the top.
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: But I think there's a lot of offenses kind of
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: in that position here today and we'll get to the
• 38:32
  Speaker 3: next game, which I think is another one. The Pirates
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: and Astros. I mean, Mike Burrows has not been good
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: at all. I mean the lefties for the Pirates, I
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: think ered a pretty good spot and then Bubba.
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: You got Bubba Chandler on the other side.
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: I think you could get to as well with some
• 38:50
  Speaker 3: of these Astros. I mean, maybe you get to Alvarez,
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: but Bubba just hasn't been able to get the ball
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: over the plate. But Mike Burrows has just been getting
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: has been getting just barreled up. I mean, this guy
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: has not been very good at all. You know, you
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: sit here and you look at what he's what he's
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: bringing the table fifteen percent strikeout right to the lefties.
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: He's got a we's see here barrel? Where is his
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: barrels here? Eleven per barreled up to the to the
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: left side. So that's what that's what I want.
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: I think Brandon Lowe sitting up there in the two
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: hole second base is going to be a pretty popular play.
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: I think he's in play.
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: Horrowitz sitting up there in the in the one spot,
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: of course, Or'neil Cruz.
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: But I mean the Pirates have been good overall. Is hitting.
• 39:37
  Speaker 3: I mean they're in the top five of home runs
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: in the last couple of weeks as far as ops goes.
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: The Pirates are also fifth with seven to eighty two.
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: So I mean the Pirates quietly are putting together a
• 39:49
  Speaker 3: pretty good offensive year so far this year, and I
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: think the lefties in a really good spot.
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: Burrows is not good.
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: And I'll tell you what, that Astros bullpen sucks ball,
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: So definitely something I want to attack.
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: Matt so I think the Pirates for me, are one
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: of my favorite stacks.
• 40:04
  Speaker 4: Honestly, I like both sides of this game because Bubba
• 40:06
  Speaker 4: Chandler kind of stinks too, So both these guys get
• 40:08
  Speaker 4: hit hard by lefties. Chandler has a lot of pedigree
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: and he's got good stuff, but he can't find the
• 40:14
  Speaker 4: zone too often. And I like, for Chandler's sake, how
• 40:18
  Speaker 4: Houston has a bunch of righties. But if he's struggling
• 40:20
  Speaker 4: to find the zone, these a righties that can still
• 40:22
  Speaker 4: hurt him. I like both sides of this game. Pittsburgh's
• 40:24
  Speaker 4: been really good. Houston, I think has the guys that
• 40:28
  Speaker 4: can beat him. Yeah. I also like, uh, I'm pretty
• 40:34
  Speaker 4: sure in Houston's last spot they faced Mazerowski or they
• 40:38
  Speaker 4: I know they just recently faced him. I'm pretty sure
• 40:41
  Speaker 4: it was their last game. Now they're going to Bubba Chandler,
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: so pretty big fallof there. I think both sides of
• 40:46
  Speaker 4: this game wildly and play good offensive spot. I like
• 40:49
  Speaker 4: low Brandon Laue and Jordan Alvarez, two of the best
• 40:53
  Speaker 4: one offs if nothing else on this slate in my eyes.
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Elvarez always always seems to be in He's definitely
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: a beast, But yeah, the lefties for the Pirates definitely stand.
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: I love attacking them.
• 41:05
  Speaker 3: Shit Bullpens in Houston definitely is one of those, that
• 41:09
  Speaker 3: is for sure. The next game we got here up
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: on the doc is Colorado against Grayson Rodriguez. Might be
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: able to get a little bit of leverage if you
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: wanted to go that way. And then we got Sigano,
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: who can't seem to miss really any bats against an
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: Angel offense who I think could be in a pretty
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: decent spot here today if you want to attack a
• 41:35
  Speaker 3: guy who just can't seem to miss any bats. But
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: I don't have the Angels in my top five, I
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: definitely leave them in my pool. I think I'd rather
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: play some Angels over like the Astros. I think the
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: A's I prefer over the Angels. But yeah, I think
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: the Angels are definitely in spot today. I mean Sigano
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: just like I said, I mean, looking at what he's
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: bringing to the table with his low strike. I mean
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: he's got fourteen percent to the left side, eleven and
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: a half percent to the right side. Really's not really
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: walking too many people. He's just been getting beat up
• 42:09
  Speaker 3: by lefties quite a bit. Nineteen percent barrel rate to lefties.
• 42:14
  Speaker 3: He's got a thirteen percent barrel rate to the right's
• 42:17
  Speaker 3: Wade Meckler looking pretty good.
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: I know the Angel's got a.
• 42:21
  Speaker 3: Bunch of righties, but I mean it's always fun picking
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: on Sogano. I think he's definitely definitely gonna get to
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: exploited here today. I think they're gonna put up some numbers.
• 42:31
  Speaker 3: Trouts always in a pretty good spot Solare, but I
• 42:34
  Speaker 3: think Meckler stands out.
• 42:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I like the Angels a lot here, Sigano, he's
• 42:39
  Speaker 4: just not good. I mean, this is a guy that
• 42:40
  Speaker 4: probably doesn't have major league level stuff still floating around. Yeah,
• 42:45
  Speaker 4: the Angels usually only like them against lefties. And you've
• 42:49
  Speaker 4: also got zach Netto who is questionable after missing yesterday.
• 42:54
  Speaker 4: So there's enough questions here where I would understand why
• 42:56
  Speaker 4: you don't have them as like one of your top
• 42:58
  Speaker 4: top stacks. But I do. I kind of lean into
• 43:01
  Speaker 4: that uncertainty and tournaments. Maybe people don't like them as much.
• 43:05
  Speaker 4: We'll have to wait on the netto news. Sigana is
• 43:07
  Speaker 4: just that bad, Like he's a pitcher where I'm always
• 43:10
  Speaker 4: willing to pick on him with at least a competent offense.
• 43:14
  Speaker 4: The Angels are that, and usually against righty's they struggle
• 43:17
  Speaker 4: with strikeouts. Sigano doesn't strike anyone out. Like the flip
• 43:22
  Speaker 4: side of that is, if there was a random start
• 43:25
  Speaker 4: where Sigano like went six innings and like had his
• 43:28
  Speaker 4: one of his best starts of the year, it would
• 43:30
  Speaker 4: be against the Angels because they're so bad against righties.
• 43:33
  Speaker 4: But I think their upside is too hard to ignore
• 43:35
  Speaker 4: in this spot.
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I got it. I gotta agree with you there.
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: I mean I didn't know about Netto.
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: That does kind of bump them down a little bit,
• 43:45
  Speaker 3: taking off your one of your power back top of
• 43:47
  Speaker 3: the line up there. But yeah, like Michaels this year,
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: picture can't miss bats against a team.
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: That misses a lot of balls. Yeah, I mean, it's
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: that's what we got here tonight. So we'll see how
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: that works out. But I think the Angels definitely have
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: some upside in the game here tonight. But I think
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: this one here is is interesting.
• 44:07
  Speaker 3: This next one. We got Eric Lower who's just been awful,
• 44:12
  Speaker 3: and then he got a pretty good bullpen behind him.
• 44:15
  Speaker 3: Lower being a lefty there, and then you got you know,
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: you got some variety power over here for for the
• 44:21
  Speaker 3: d Backs. You got Marte never can fit about Corbyn Carroll,
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: but Norlan Ernando is pretty good. Marino isn't bad. But
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: I think I do like some of these d Backs
• 44:33
  Speaker 3: here against the Dodgers. I think, I mean, Lower's just
• 44:36
  Speaker 3: not been good at all. I mean not at all.
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: So I think he's you know, some might want to
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: pick on I'm just a little bit worried about about
• 44:45
  Speaker 3: that bullpen. But Lower's given up what eleven or twelve
• 44:48
  Speaker 3: homers in his forty some innings. He's got a pretty
• 44:51
  Speaker 3: high walk rate, which is not gonna bowl well for
• 44:56
  Speaker 3: him today. I mean he's been sitting at what eighteen
• 44:59
  Speaker 3: percent walk right to or sixteen percent walk right to lefties.
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry, so left he's been getting to him. He's
• 45:05
  Speaker 3: been getting buriled up at fourteen percent the right eyes,
• 45:09
  Speaker 3: almost ten percent the lefties.
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: Wolba is pretty.
• 45:12
  Speaker 3: High on both sides, fly balls almost at forty five
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: percent to the right side.
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: So Lower has just not been good.
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: I think the d Backs can definitely get to him.
• 45:23
  Speaker 3: I like the d Backs better than the Dodgers, and
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: you're not gonna hear me say that that often Soroka
• 45:28
  Speaker 3: is just a pitcher that hasn't been really all that bad,
• 45:32
  Speaker 3: just doesn't seem to get beat up. More of a
• 45:34
  Speaker 3: ground ball pitcher to the right side. I guess some
• 45:37
  Speaker 3: of these lefties have got to him. He got a
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: ten percent barrel rate to the lefties, So I mean,
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: I guess if I was living in the Dodger world,
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: you know, show Hey Freeman, Tucker Munsey, I guess that'd
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: probably be about it. But yeah, I think I like
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: the d Backs bats. Hopefully they can get to him
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: two or three at bats. But Lower's has not been good.
• 45:57
  Speaker 4: I'm a little torn on Arizona because they're off I
• 46:00
  Speaker 4: like a lot like at Tell Marte is a guy
• 46:01
  Speaker 4: I'm always trying to play. He's just rakes that second base.
• 46:06
  Speaker 4: Lower hasn't been good this year, but most of that
• 46:10
  Speaker 4: are all that was with Toronto. He was actually pretty
• 46:12
  Speaker 4: good his last start out. I feel like when guys
• 46:14
  Speaker 4: go to LA, like they just change things right away.
• 46:17
  Speaker 4: And I'm a little bit I don't know if skeptical
• 46:21
  Speaker 4: is the right word, but like, I think there might
• 46:23
  Speaker 4: be some positive variants headed in Lower's way. Now, the
• 46:28
  Speaker 4: other side of that is maybe like he just got
• 46:30
  Speaker 4: up for his first start as a Dodger and he
• 46:32
  Speaker 4: just stinks now and that like you can get to him.
• 46:35
  Speaker 4: So I think the Diamondbacks are in play. Like I
• 46:38
  Speaker 4: get why you like them too, because it falls into
• 46:40
  Speaker 4: teams you like because you'd rather play like good offenses,
• 46:45
  Speaker 4: teams that are good and like less than ideal spots
• 46:48
  Speaker 4: on paper. Then like the bad offense is in better
• 46:51
  Speaker 4: spots against worst pitchers. So the Diamondbacks all right in
• 46:54
  Speaker 4: line there, I get it. I wouldn't mind it all
• 46:57
  Speaker 4: if I landed on some zones tonight.
• 47:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that that is basically the way I
• 47:02
  Speaker 3: look at it. I mean I always always said, I mean,
• 47:06
  Speaker 3: a turd's a turd. You can dress a pig anyway
• 47:09
  Speaker 3: you want, it's still a pig, you know what I mean. Like,
• 47:11
  Speaker 3: I just it's like I always I think I said
• 47:13
  Speaker 3: to you before, like an NFL, like when a backup.
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: Running back comes in and you know, and all of a.
• 47:17
  Speaker 3: Sudden, everybody's playing him and he's cheap, like unless they
• 47:20
  Speaker 3: fall in the end zone, get a lucky one. It's
• 47:21
  Speaker 3: just like I never feel like I just feel like
• 47:23
  Speaker 3: I'm chasing, you know, like just chasing the salary or
• 47:26
  Speaker 3: something and still playing a guy that just isn't good. Like,
• 47:29
  Speaker 3: I just feel like, you know, baseball maybe a little
• 47:32
  Speaker 3: different because you know, you can get some cheap value,
• 47:34
  Speaker 3: you know, pitchers or whatever coming up, or rookies or
• 47:36
  Speaker 3: you know, stuff like that. But yeah, I like, I
• 47:38
  Speaker 3: just feel like you're a turd. You'b always will be
• 47:40
  Speaker 3: a turd. Like, I mean, you can't You're not gonna
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: spend it any other way to me. But uh, but
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: we got Naids there and the check good thing. Don't
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: rewind when I was talking about the Brewers, my friend,
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: you might you might be sending me some hate messages,
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: but uh, either way, but uh, we miss Nates on
• 47:57
  Speaker 3: on our Tuesday. I know he's got some work meetings
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: this week, but yeah, the no fun job always got
• 48:04
  Speaker 3: to take got to take over. But we got to
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: get to the last game. We got here tonight. We
• 48:08
  Speaker 3: got Logan Gilbert, who we talked about might be a
• 48:12
  Speaker 3: cash game tight pitcher here today for the Mariners against
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: the awful Mets, who we like to pick on have
• 48:18
  Speaker 3: not been good offensively. Gilbert has struggled a little bit
• 48:22
  Speaker 3: at home here, but I'm not too worried about it.
• 48:25
  Speaker 3: I think he's in a pretty good spot here against
• 48:27
  Speaker 3: the Mets. Jonah Tong righty going for the.
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: Mets, I'm not.
• 48:32
  Speaker 3: I really don't like playing bets out there in Seattle.
• 48:35
  Speaker 3: Got a four point two to five team total four
• 48:37
  Speaker 3: the Mariners. But can you talk me to any Mariners
• 48:40
  Speaker 3: or you like any of them? Mets as a one
• 48:43
  Speaker 3: off maybe against Gilbert?
• 48:45
  Speaker 4: No, not in this spot, like is a I can't
• 48:49
  Speaker 4: fully stack teams in Seattle on slates like this. You
• 48:54
  Speaker 4: can get the pieces like Soto Julio, and obviously the
• 48:58
  Speaker 4: Mets side are not stacking against Gilbert at least, I'm not.
• 49:00
  Speaker 4: Seattle looks more appealing, but it's just it's too hard
• 49:04
  Speaker 4: in this ballpark. Again, pieces are fine mini stacks if
• 49:07
  Speaker 4: you're playing the late slate, definitely, But I don't know.
• 49:11
  Speaker 4: I guess to the flip side of that to counter that,
• 49:13
  Speaker 4: if there ever were like a massive slate to play
• 49:16
  Speaker 4: a game in this ballpark, it would be this one.
• 49:18
  Speaker 4: Because we've talked all show about how there aren't great offenses.
• 49:22
  Speaker 4: I still don't like it and I won't do it.
• 49:24
  Speaker 4: But it's not like we have corps. You don't love
• 49:27
  Speaker 4: the Dodgers. Soroka's good. Not amazing, but he's good. The
• 49:31
  Speaker 4: Yankees are missing Judge, Like, I would understand why someone
• 49:35
  Speaker 4: would stack Seattle here, even if I'm not gonna do
• 49:38
  Speaker 4: it personally, you know what I mean?
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, like we said, there's a bunch of
• 49:42
  Speaker 3: offenses are all in the same, but no one stands out.
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: So I don't think there's you know, the better offensive
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: aren't stand out. We got eleven offenses. We're gonna have,
• 49:51
  Speaker 3: you know, twenty two teams in play. It's not like
• 49:53
  Speaker 3: we got our typical Thursday where there's what four games
• 49:55
  Speaker 3: and you know, so a lot of teams out out
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: there today. But definitely an interesting slate, that's for sure.
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: But Matt, let's basically dive in here. Give me your top, Like,
• 50:08
  Speaker 3: give me your top three or four stacks, and then
• 50:11
  Speaker 3: give me a a low owned stack.
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: You think nobody will be.
• 50:15
  Speaker 4: On my top? Okay, so my top three or four
• 50:22
  Speaker 4: stacks are going to be and I think there's a
• 50:24
  Speaker 4: lot of just it's flat tonight, right.
• 50:28
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 50:29
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna say the Angels, I'll say the Royals, I'll
• 50:34
  Speaker 4: say the Pirates, and the Dodgers just because they're the Dodgers,
• 50:40
  Speaker 4: and then what else was that? It?
• 50:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll give I'll give my sex, and I'll ask
• 50:44
  Speaker 3: you for a couple of couples pitchers and stuff here,
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: but the stacks, I think I think I got some pirates.
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: I think I like the d Backs, I like the A's,
• 50:54
  Speaker 3: I like the Angels and Yankees.
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: I think are where i'd lie.
• 50:59
  Speaker 3: I think, you know, fading some royals, I think is
• 51:02
  Speaker 3: what i'd just rather do. I think they're gonna be
• 51:04
  Speaker 3: fairly popular. But Bobby Whitt, as I said, is always
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: a good one off.
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: But how about uh?
• 51:10
  Speaker 3: I know you got the four pictures that you like.
• 51:13
  Speaker 3: You know, we're pretty pretty clear on that. So with Harrison,
• 51:18
  Speaker 3: and then we got Gilbert here tonight, and then we
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: got Schlitler, uh, and then we got Grayson Rodriguez. Where
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: are four pitchers? Is there anybody else that you would consider?
• 51:27
  Speaker 3: Are you just gonna stand with the four?
• 51:29
  Speaker 4: If I were like playing a bunch of lineups, I
• 51:31
  Speaker 4: would be considering a lot of other guys. I wouldn't
• 51:33
  Speaker 4: really be exing out many guys. But if I'm a handbuilding,
• 51:36
  Speaker 4: it's really hard for me to get to anyone else,
• 51:38
  Speaker 4: you know, I just I don't really see the need
• 51:40
  Speaker 4: to when you can get different with bats.
• 51:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think there are a lot of guys are
• 51:45
  Speaker 3: in play there. I mean, like we're scratching off like
• 51:47
  Speaker 3: Sigano's and you know, guys like that who you know
• 51:50
  Speaker 3: obviously sucked. But I think there was you know, a
• 51:52
  Speaker 3: dozen pictures or so that I think you can that
• 51:56
  Speaker 3: you can do juice man here, kissing Naid's but a
• 51:59
  Speaker 3: little bit here. Best stack on the slate, hands down.
• 52:04
  Speaker 2: But hey, that's the kind of slate it is today.
• 52:06
  Speaker 3: I don't think there's really any kind of offenses that
• 52:09
  Speaker 3: you know, all the masses are going.
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: To gravitate towards.
• 52:11
  Speaker 3: So yeah, I think this is definitely a good slate
• 52:14
  Speaker 3: if you want to get over a weight on a
• 52:16
  Speaker 3: few teams today, I think this is a day to
• 52:19
  Speaker 3: do it. If you're playing twenty teams plus, I think,
• 52:22
  Speaker 3: you know, if you nail that team today, there's not
• 52:24
  Speaker 3: really going to be too many chalky teams that you
• 52:26
  Speaker 3: feel like you got to mix your lineup something, flip
• 52:28
  Speaker 3: it around with the eight eight hole hitter, nine hole
• 52:31
  Speaker 3: hitter to get you a little different today. I think
• 52:33
  Speaker 3: offenses should be pretty spread out, but Matt, give me
• 52:36
  Speaker 3: a home run call, then we'll get out of here.
• 52:38
  Speaker 3: But always fun talking baseball. Let's see if we can
• 52:42
  Speaker 3: nail us a couple of home runs. I know nads
• 52:44
  Speaker 3: and I've been pretty good at nailing some homers here
• 52:47
  Speaker 3: recent times. But always fun to give out a home
• 52:50
  Speaker 3: run call.
• 52:52
  Speaker 4: I'm going to go away. I like to go off
• 52:53
  Speaker 4: the off the reservation. Unfortunately, I said Isaac Collins yesterday
• 52:57
  Speaker 4: when both the other Kansas city out here there's homeward,
• 53:00
  Speaker 4: which was sad, not gonna happen tonight, though, Tonight we're
• 53:04
  Speaker 4: gonna go to the guy on a stack I don't
• 53:06
  Speaker 4: even love, but I mentioned them as a stack. I
• 53:08
  Speaker 4: think is in playing tournaments against the picture that I
• 53:11
  Speaker 4: feel like blew his wad last time out. Brandon Nimo
• 53:15
  Speaker 4: going yard off Dustin may Neimo.
• 53:18
  Speaker 2: I like Nemo going off may. I like that one.
• 53:22
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with Kurtz hitting a home run off
• 53:25
  Speaker 3: tie On. I think that is a that should get
• 53:30
  Speaker 3: decent odds on that. Ti On's just not been good
• 53:32
  Speaker 3: all kinds of getting getting hit hard.
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: So definitely like tie On.
• 53:37
  Speaker 3: Nate'sny like your Nemo call, thinks May's cheeks as I said,
• 53:42
  Speaker 3: I think that was the pivot off Grayson Rodriguez today
• 53:45
  Speaker 3: in the lower end, as I think Rodriguez will be
• 53:47
  Speaker 3: the highest.
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: Don't picture on DK today, but tie on. Yeah, we
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: know he stinks, but.
• 53:55
  Speaker 3: Matt, appreciate you jumping on here today. I know we
• 53:59
  Speaker 3: got some ball here. Tomorrow we'll see if we can
• 54:01
  Speaker 3: get on Thursday. But always fun talking some bats with you.
• 54:06
  Speaker 3: Got any last words before we run out of here?
• 54:08
  Speaker 4: No man, fun slate, A ton of good spots, but
• 54:12
  Speaker 4: nothing great. I'm with you, so it should be a
• 54:14
  Speaker 4: fun one because kind of an unknown and whatever lands
• 54:18
  Speaker 4: up top shouldn't be crazy highly owned, which is always fun.
• 54:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, always always fun. Here.
• 54:25
  Speaker 3: Let me see if I can get this right here
• 54:27
  Speaker 3: for the end of the show. I always struggle with that, Matt, like,
• 54:30
  Speaker 3: where the hell is that damn funning at? But either way,
• 54:33
  Speaker 3: appreciate you jumping on here with me today. Hopefully we'll
• 54:36
  Speaker 3: catch you on a Thursday. But hey, let's ship it
• 54:40
  Speaker 3: and I'll see all top of them.
• 54:41
  Speaker 5: Tournaments had steps.
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: And then stops and mans
• 55:26
  Speaker 5: Uns
