  not already a member, head on over to ship at nation dot com and
• 1:17
  give us a try to cover all the main sports over there. Projections,
• 1:19
  ownership, core plays, rankings, pitcher rankings, hitter rankings, everything you
• 1:26
  need to be successful at dfs for fraction of the price compared to the competitors.
• 1:30
  So on the slate we have five games. Like we talked about one
• 1:34
  standout pitcher Glass now clearly the sp one. He's been phenomenal all season long.
• 1:41
  If you're just looking at fantasy output, you can see thirty seven,
• 1:45
  thirty, thirty two, thirty two, and gets a good home matchup here
• 1:49
  with Cincinnati. I just think he is a lock button play, whether you're
• 1:53
  playing three lineups, five lineups, ten, twenty, doing the one to
• 1:57
  fifty, I want him on as many teams as possible. You look around
• 2:01
  at any projection site and he's projected significantly higher than the competition. So makes
• 2:08
  it relatively easy. Not easy, but it makes it easier when going through
• 2:14
  and building out your teams When you know you know one of these pitchers is
• 2:17
  essentially a lot now after him, I think it gets a little more difficult.
• 2:22
  Jones for Pittsburgh has been really, really solid. He's shown the upside
• 2:28
  thirty five fantasy point game, he's got a twenty five or twenty four or
• 2:30
  twenty. The strikeouts can be big, and you know those games where he
• 2:34
  had the good fantasy outputs, obviously the strikeouts for their ten to seven to
• 2:38
  seven eight in terms of strikeouts, had a ten earlier on in the year.
• 2:43
  So pretty good matchup here in Chicago. A little bit of rain projector,
• 2:49
  but it's not gonna be an issue. They're gonna be able to play
• 2:52
  this one, So I think He's a fine option if you can fit them
• 2:54
  both in there. I don't think it's too bad thirty eight hundred per spot.
• 2:58
  There's always a cheap, especially on these smaller slates or Thursdays. A
• 3:02
  lot of teams are leaving town after these games and kind of throwing a different
• 3:07
  lineup and get some cheaper bats. So thirty eight hundred per spot, if
• 3:10
  you go those two, I think that's totally fine. Coming down a little
• 3:15
  bit more, Zach Little's a guy I'm interested in. Not as much upside,
• 3:17
  but the price is a little cheaper and he's been more consistent, so
• 3:22
  I think he's fine at eighty four. Javier a little bit of a risk
• 3:25
  coming off the injured injured list, and he got rocked against the Tigers,
• 3:31
  who their offense freaking sucks. I know because I'm a Tigers fan and unfortunately
• 3:37
  watched a lot of their games. So not a ton of interest in him.
• 3:40
  Steele at seventy three has not had a great season. He was very
• 3:45
  solid last year, but man, it hasn't really shown much this year.
• 3:47
  Don't love him. Chris Wall at sixty eight hundred I think is a fine
• 3:53
  option. He's been very good in four straight starts and then flash the strikeout
• 3:58
  upside last time out against Washington with nine, so I think he's a strong
• 4:01
  option. Then the last guy I'd probably consider it would be Taiwan Walker back
• 4:06
  to back solid starts here, don't mind the matchup against the match so Glass
• 4:14
  now for sure block button play for me. Jones would be the SB two
• 4:17
  if you can make it work. If not, Jones probably would just go
• 4:23
  save some money and go to like chris Well or Walker, and then Little
• 4:29
  would probably be like the fifth guy I'd probably consider here tonight. If you
• 4:32
  do play one of these cheaper guys, like let's say you put in Walker,
• 4:35
  you have to basically forty two hundred dollars per roster spot, so no
• 4:41
  price here is prohibitive. I'd say in terms of pitching Glass now at ten
• 4:45
  to four is too cheap really for the product production that he's been putting out.
• 4:48
  So I'm be looking to start all my teams with class now, and
• 4:53
  then if I'm a meeting, I've probably mixing the other dudes. They don't
• 4:56
  really have a strong take on anyone else. To get Jones, you got
• 4:59
  Little, chris Well and Walker will be the four other guys I think that's
• 5:04
  for four other guys that I'd be looking at. So in terms of offense,
• 5:10
  you can see the games here at the top. We'll kind of talk
• 5:12
  through them. This Mets Phillies game has a total of eight. Not a
• 5:16
  ton of interest on the Mets side. You know, if I am playing
• 5:20
  Mets, it's just going to be their their power guys. Look to Lindor
• 5:24
  Alonzo, maybe j D. Martinez, probably more of like three men stacks.
• 5:28
  On the Philly side, I want to target some of their rightys.
• 5:30
  Bone Castianos I think is both solid options. Real Muto I think is a
• 5:36
  solid option as well. Just got to see what these lineups kind of look
• 5:41
  at. But yeah, for Philadelphia, I'll be looking more at the rightings.
• 5:45
  Tampa and Boston not a ton of interest. Offensively, I'm kind of
• 5:48
  in on both these pitchers. I don't like either team for for a full
• 5:51
  stack. If you want to, you know, power hunt for some one
• 5:56
  off guys with powered Rafael Devers Arena. Sure you can play those guys,
• 6:01
  But in terms of full stacks, not a ton of interest. Same thing
• 6:05
  in Pittsburgh and Chicago. It's a low total, lowest total I believe on
• 6:09
  the slates, sitting at seven and a half. Both these pitchers you know
• 6:13
  pretty good. I mean, if I'm gonna go anywhere, probably be on
• 6:15
  the Pittsburgh side. You know, Steel hasn't been as good as he was,
• 6:19
  and you know, especially last year. I'll take a look at some
• 6:23
  of these Pittsburgh guys. But it's a low total. I mean it's a
• 6:26
  low total and a low team total for for Pittsburgh, So not not a
• 6:30
  of interest in the Pittsburgh Chicago game. Oakland Houston biggest total on the slates,
• 6:36
  sitting at nine. Most of that is obviously on the Houston side.
• 6:39
  Their team totals right around five and a half. Be looking to play this
• 6:43
  whole line up top to bottom. Bragman's kind of broken out a little bit
• 6:46
  had the two home run game a couple of nights ago. Tucker's having a
• 6:50
  solid year as well. You can play this whole lineup. Lineups obviously not
• 6:54
  out yet at this point, but when it does come out for MMV purposes,
• 6:58
  you can play them all. Five man stacks, three man stacks,
• 7:01
  individual plays. I think the sneaky team on this slate could be Oakland.
• 7:06
  You know, people don't like playing this offense, people will consider playing Javier.
• 7:13
  I do have interest in Oakland. They'll be the sneaky stack that I'm
• 7:15
  kind of looking at here today. You know, they have a lot of
• 7:18
  guys they mix in, so need the line up. This is an eight
• 7:21
  to ten Eastern games, so we'll have it at Lock so you can kind
• 7:25
  of circle back and see see who the guys are that we're interested in.
• 7:30
  And then the final game on the slate Cincinnati, Los Angeles not playing any
• 7:34
  Reds guys. Glass Now sp one lock and load type play. Dodgers definitely
• 7:41
  a fine option. Reds are kind of going with the starter and then to
• 7:46
  some long relief guys. So you know, it's expensive team if you're paying,
• 7:51
  if you're going glass Now and Jones, it might be a little difficult
• 7:55
  to get some of these main guys. But if you're going glass Now and
• 7:58
  one of the cheaper guys, you can definitely take advantage of this Dodger's offense.
• 8:01
  It's gonna go Houston, It's gonna go La in terms of the way
• 8:05
  I ranked these offenses, and then I'm gonna say Oakland is kind of the
• 8:09
  sneaky type team tonight that I have interest in uh, and then you know,
• 8:13
  maybe some some Philadelphia would be like the fourth way that I'd be looking
• 8:18
  to go here today it's only five games slate obviously, so not a ton
• 8:22
  of options. So that's kind of what we're looking at offensively, kind of
• 8:26
  went through the pictures. It's class now and then you know Jones, little
• 8:31
  Chris Well and Walker kind of the four other guys. If if I'm if
• 8:35
  you are mming, I'd be looking to kind of get exposure to all those
• 8:39
  other guys paired with glass now. So it's kind of how I'm playing this
• 8:43
