- 0:09Speaker 1: All system's going clear, the lift up? What is up everybody?
- 0:45Speaker 1: I don't know what my little box is spending there
- 0:48Speaker 1: for Matt, but uh, hopefully everybody's all right on a Tuesday.
- 0:52Speaker 1: What's going on? Seemed like we had a little fumble
- 0:54Speaker 1: there at the start, but uh, like we said, Matt
- 0:56Speaker 1: wouldn't be a show, something didn't get screwed up, right.
- 1:00Speaker 2: Yeah, we're good here on my end. I don't know
- 1:02Speaker 2: if we're good out there in the internets, but hopefully
- 1:06Speaker 2: we are. And uh, man different because usually me and
- 1:10Speaker 2: you are doing the Thursday slate, which we will still
- 1:13Speaker 2: be doing this week, but excited to be talking about
- 1:16Speaker 2: more of a main slate with you. We got good
- 1:18Speaker 2: contests on Tuesdays, so excited for this show man.
- 1:22Speaker 1: Yeah, Tuesdays and Fridays for me are my favorite days.
- 1:25Speaker 1: Like you know, it's like usually the healthiest tournaments on
- 1:28Speaker 1: Tuesday and Friday, So yeah, I totally agree. Yeah, those
- 1:33Speaker 1: are usually the fun days for sure. But we lost
- 1:37Speaker 1: one game here today already, so we can just throw
- 1:40Speaker 1: that out there, Mets Atlanta, we're gone. So it rained out.
- 1:43Speaker 1: So we lost Chris Sale, who probably would have been
- 1:47Speaker 1: a probably heavily paid played pitcher here tonight. But you know,
- 1:50Speaker 1: you overall look at it, we actually have one, two, three, four.
- 1:55Speaker 1: We got like handful arms seven or eight arms over
- 1:57Speaker 1: eight k so we got a decent like mid the
- 2:01Speaker 1: high level pitching here on the slate today. But I
- 2:04Speaker 1: can pick holes in a few of the dudes that
- 2:07Speaker 1: that I like. Now on FanDuel. There's one less game,
- 2:10Speaker 1: the doubleheader game with the Indians and Reds or not
- 2:13Speaker 1: on the on the FanDuel slate, so they're down to
- 2:16Speaker 1: eight nine on DK here today. But Matt some interesting pitching,
- 2:22Speaker 1: I mean, just kind of looking at it. I mean,
- 2:24Speaker 1: I think Gavin Williams, who's not on FanDuel, I think
- 2:27Speaker 1: would be probably one of my favorite plays today. I mean,
- 2:30Speaker 1: he's got three games in a row with eleven strikeouts,
- 2:33Speaker 1: So that in itself in the DFS world, is definitely
- 2:37Speaker 1: something to be interested with. And dude, Logan Henderson here
- 2:41Speaker 1: in Detroit is like a name that is being talked
- 2:43Speaker 1: about for the last few days because they think Scoo Ball,
- 2:46Speaker 1: you know, is going to get traded. The Brewers are involved,
- 2:49Speaker 1: and Logan Henderson is a name that is being floated
- 2:52Speaker 1: that the Tigers want back. So I've been hearing about
- 2:55Speaker 1: Logan Henderson, so but you know, this kid definitely has
- 2:58Speaker 1: some strike up capability. He gets a you know, we
- 3:00Speaker 1: like where him going out to park the San Franz.
- 3:03Speaker 1: The problem I have with him on FanDuel is he
- 3:05Speaker 1: just he gets pulled too early, like he's missing an inning.
- 3:08Speaker 1: Like you know, he's a five inning pitcher. It kind
- 3:10Speaker 1: of seems he's not getting me to quality start. He's
- 3:13Speaker 1: usually you know, mid seventies. I think he's only been
- 3:15Speaker 1: over eighty pitches like three times all season. I think
- 3:18Speaker 1: he's at eighty eighty three and like eighty five, so
- 3:21Speaker 1: he's not getting too deep. But I mean there's some
- 3:23Speaker 1: plays I think where Blue Ski's in play, if you
- 3:26Speaker 1: want to go that route. I really like the leash
- 3:27Speaker 1: he's been having here in recent times. I've been letting
- 3:30Speaker 1: him get over one hundred. I think anybody can make
- 3:33Speaker 1: arguments for Todz, Bradley and King. I'm not really a
- 3:35Speaker 1: fan of King. I think he's going to see too
- 3:37Speaker 1: many lefties. Debt mers. I think is in play. Roops
- 3:40Speaker 1: in play today. If somebody may want to go down
- 3:43Speaker 1: to like Castee or Kay, if you want to get
- 3:45Speaker 1: balls and get out the liquor bottle, Matt. But I
- 3:48Speaker 1: think we got some options in the pitching world here tonight.
- 3:50Speaker 1: I don't think there's any really high end dude that
- 3:53Speaker 1: we need to be worried about, Like, dude, it's gonna
- 3:55Speaker 1: blow us away with you know, a twelve or over
- 3:58Speaker 1: ten case strikeout performance here today. I think we got
- 4:01Speaker 1: a pretty good mixture. I think bats, you know, Dodgers
- 4:05Speaker 1: are in play. We got a Sacramento game here tonight.
- 4:08Speaker 1: So yeah, interesting slate that I think we have. But
- 4:11Speaker 1: pitching overall, like I said, I think there's a handful
- 4:15Speaker 1: of guys you can make arguments for. But uh, man,
- 4:18Speaker 1: I think for me, I don't like Garrett Cole. I
- 4:21Speaker 1: don't like picking on the White Sox. Man. It just
- 4:23Speaker 1: seems like it's just not been fun. But uh, I mean,
- 4:26Speaker 1: I think Gavin Williams stands out for me. He'd probably
- 4:28Speaker 1: be my favorite. I think Rube Blueski would probably be
- 4:31Speaker 1: my second favorite. And then and then maybe I could
- 4:35Speaker 1: do a Logan Henderson, but I don't have Logan Henderson
- 4:37Speaker 1: up in the top, and I don't think he's in
- 4:38Speaker 1: must play. Yeah.
- 4:41Speaker 2: I viewed that very similarly to you, where we have
- 4:44Speaker 2: a lot of good options, no really like you know,
- 4:47Speaker 2: mis Erowski against the Rockies or anything like that. But
- 4:50Speaker 2: the closest thing is Gavin Williams versus the Reds. The
- 4:52Speaker 2: Reds strike out a ton. Obviously it's a good hitters park,
- 4:56Speaker 2: so I think Gavin's floor is here. We've seen floor
- 5:01Speaker 2: starts from him a few times this season, but he's
- 5:04Speaker 2: in good form right now. Red strikeout a ton. I
- 5:08Speaker 2: think he's the sp one on this slate with no sale.
- 5:11Speaker 2: The only main difference I think I see with you
- 5:14Speaker 2: and I might be different than the field here is
- 5:16Speaker 2: I like Michael King Moore than you and the field. Yeah.
- 5:20Speaker 2: I don't like the lefties that Colorado will throw at him,
- 5:23Speaker 2: but it's still the Rockies on the road in San Diego.
- 5:27Speaker 2: And King's also in good form right now, pitching really
- 5:29Speaker 2: well his past couple starts, so eighty four hundred. I
- 5:33Speaker 2: like King, but to your point, I also like Robleski.
- 5:37Speaker 2: I like Logan Henderson, although his price tag is really high,
- 5:41Speaker 2: so pairing him with Gavin Williams a little bit difficult.
- 5:45Speaker 2: I imagine he's lower because of that, and I still
- 5:47Speaker 2: like him, so yeah, he's in play. Read Debtmer's at
- 5:50Speaker 2: eighty one hundred. I don't mind Landon raup as you
- 5:54Speaker 2: mentioned either nice price, tag, nice ballpark. He's not Tyler
- 5:57Speaker 2: Mallley pitch well. And then the other guy I think
- 5:59Speaker 2: that's got to be in play is TODs Bradley. Eighty
- 6:02Speaker 2: six hundred. Royals lineup just not good right now. Bradley's
- 6:07Speaker 2: been good and consistent, and I still never feel good
- 6:11Speaker 2: about rostering, especially into ownership, but I think there's a
- 6:15Speaker 2: reason we'll be pretty highly owned here and at eighty
- 6:18Speaker 2: six hundred against the Royals, got to the gotta at
- 6:21Speaker 2: least be in play for me. So kind of as
- 6:24Speaker 2: you mentioned, I like all these guys. I don't love anything.
- 6:28Speaker 2: For me, Gavin is my number one and then number two.
- 6:34Speaker 2: I also like Robleski. It's tough between Robleski, Bradley and
- 6:38Speaker 2: King for me. I'll say Robleski as well. I like
- 6:42Speaker 2: him too.
- 6:44Speaker 1: Yeah, I think the issue I had I was looking
- 6:46Speaker 1: at Bradley too, and then I start thinking, like, all right,
- 6:49Speaker 1: Bradley in recent times a strikeout percentage, I mean it
- 6:53Speaker 1: has not been bad. He's good against lefties twenty nine
- 6:56Speaker 1: percent so far this year twenty four percent it's since
- 6:59Speaker 1: he walks so many lefties. I mean, he's got like
- 7:01Speaker 1: an eleven percent walk rate, which is concerning, and he
- 7:04Speaker 1: gets buriled up quite a bit by lefties. And you know,
- 7:08Speaker 1: some of the Jensen and Kaglioni's going to see up
- 7:11Speaker 1: at the top, they're pretty patient. Pascuntino's pretty patient, so
- 7:16Speaker 1: you know. I mean, but he could get to Jensen
- 7:17Speaker 1: and Keglione and get some strikeouts up there at the
- 7:19Speaker 1: top of that lineup. Both of them are twenty seven
- 7:22Speaker 1: and twenty nine percent strikeout rates, So you know, I
- 7:25Speaker 1: think Bradley's one of them dudes where you know, I
- 7:29Speaker 1: I think you could see the upside like I see upside,
- 7:32Speaker 1: but then you could see some reasonings why I could
- 7:35Speaker 1: go to shit real quick, right, But you know, but
- 7:37Speaker 1: the upside is definitely there. I think, you know, with
- 7:40Speaker 1: the way he's been pitching, I mean the last month
- 7:42Speaker 1: or so he's been he's been pretty good the last month.
- 7:45Speaker 1: Thirty three percent k rate to the left side and
- 7:47Speaker 1: it's twenty eight percent k rate to the right side.
- 7:50Speaker 1: And I mean he in one hundred and twenty three
- 7:53Speaker 1: played appearances in the last thirty days, So I I
- 7:56Speaker 1: think that's decent. I mean, so, like you said, he's
- 7:58Speaker 1: he's in good form right now. So I don't mind it,
- 8:01Speaker 1: and I don't mind picking on a Royals team anyway,
- 8:05Speaker 1: you know, especially at that price. So King, I think
- 8:09Speaker 1: does concern me a little bit. But I mean, you
- 8:12Speaker 1: look at it. I think a lot of the optos
- 8:14Speaker 1: like King too, because I mean the Rockies have the
- 8:16Speaker 1: lowest team total pretty much on the slate, so I
- 8:19Speaker 1: mean he's and he's also the highest favorite. He's like
- 8:21Speaker 1: a minus two forty favorite or something like that here
- 8:25Speaker 1: today too. So you know, I could see I could
- 8:27Speaker 1: see that, you know, reasoning why he's you know, he's
- 8:31Speaker 1: well liked. I mean, he's been over the sixth inning
- 8:34Speaker 1: mark here, you know, like four or five starts. I remember,
- 8:36Speaker 1: looking That's one thing I always look at when I'm
- 8:38Speaker 1: on FanDuel. I want guys that I think can get
- 8:40Speaker 1: me past that sick. It's such a difference that at
- 8:43Speaker 1: ten extra points with the win in quality start. But
- 8:46Speaker 1: I mean I could see why you like King, especially
- 8:49Speaker 1: against the Colorado team as the team we've been you know,
- 8:52Speaker 1: basically chasing against here. What do you feel about debt
- 8:55Speaker 1: meers against Houston.
- 8:58Speaker 2: I'm torn on Debtmers seen this matchup before. Debt Merse
- 9:01Speaker 2: strikes out a ton of right handed hitters, like he's
- 9:04Speaker 2: really good at king righties. But it always worries me
- 9:08Speaker 2: using a lefty against this Houston lineup just because they
- 9:10Speaker 2: set up so well against left handed pitch against left
- 9:13Speaker 2: handed pitching. But in general, on paper, it's I like
- 9:19Speaker 2: Debt Merse. I think he's definitely in play here. Again,
- 9:23Speaker 2: big strike on percentage against against right eyes. He's gonna
- 9:26Speaker 2: see a lot of them tonight. He's been good all year.
- 9:31Speaker 2: I like that Merse. I don't view him as like
- 9:34Speaker 2: I like him not much more than the other guys
- 9:35Speaker 2: we talked about, but he's right on that list for me.
- 9:40Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he's on the borderline for me too.
- 9:42Speaker 1: I think it'd be a good tournament play. I mean,
- 9:44Speaker 1: if I had a handful of teams, I probably wouldn't
- 9:45Speaker 1: get to read Debt marries. But if I got twenty
- 9:47Speaker 1: I'd probably get a handful of lineups with him in there.
- 9:50Speaker 1: It's just Houston doesn't have too many guys that are
- 9:53Speaker 1: over that twenty two and a half percent k rate
- 9:57Speaker 1: that you know, basically is kind of like the average
- 9:59Speaker 1: line there I that I want to see. So when
- 10:01Speaker 1: I see everybody in the teens in the twenty low twenties,
- 10:05Speaker 1: nineteen percent, you know, all the way up and down
- 10:07Speaker 1: that lineup basically sixteen, fifteen, seventeen, twenty one, twenty, twenty one,
- 10:12Speaker 1: twenty two. So it's like, ah, you know, do I
- 10:14Speaker 1: feel like I'm gonna get a ceiling game out of
- 10:16Speaker 1: this team? You know? Like, you know, do I feel
- 10:18Speaker 1: like they're all gonna be shit one day? You know
- 10:21Speaker 1: and get there. I mean, it could happen. It's baseball,
- 10:24Speaker 1: but the likelihood of a bunch of lower level strikeout
- 10:27Speaker 1: guys not striking out a bunch is something that does
- 10:30Speaker 1: concern me. But like I said at the start, I
- 10:33Speaker 1: don't think there's any really pitcher today that I feel
- 10:35Speaker 1: like is going to overwhelm me today. So I'm not
- 10:39Speaker 1: too scared to take a risk or a chance if
- 10:41Speaker 1: it means me being different, Because maybe I like the Dodgers,
- 10:44Speaker 1: like you know, fucking everybody always gonna like the Dodgers.
- 10:47Speaker 1: So I mean, if you want to get a little
- 10:48Speaker 1: different with some of the pitching, yeah, I think there's
- 10:51Speaker 1: some guys down here that we can definitely play, But
- 10:55Speaker 1: for me, Gavin Williams Rublueski would be probably my favorite
- 11:00Speaker 1: way to go, and then I'd probably throw Logan Henderson
- 11:02Speaker 1: in there, and then maybe like at Todz Bradley that
- 11:05Speaker 1: would be probably my That'd be probably my angle at it,
- 11:09Speaker 1: generally playing two or three teams, But yeah, I think
- 11:12Speaker 1: that's the way i'd pretty much go. Is there anybody
- 11:15Speaker 1: else you would add into your pool?
- 11:17Speaker 2: I don't think so. The one guy that's like really
- 11:19Speaker 2: interesting to me that won't get played is Peter Lambert
- 11:23Speaker 2: because it's just a righties against the Angels thing. But
- 11:26Speaker 2: what's interesting about this matchup is he's got really bad
- 11:28Speaker 2: reverse splits. So yeah, I think just because of how
- 11:34Speaker 2: much the Angels strike out against right handed pitching, Lambert
- 11:37Speaker 2: is intriguing in tournaments. But I think the Angel stack
- 11:41Speaker 2: against him is also in play a tournament. So if
- 11:43Speaker 2: I were playing one lineup, I would never play Lambert,
- 11:46Speaker 2: but in multi entry stuff like kind of with that Merz,
- 11:48Speaker 2: he'd be in play for me.
- 11:52Speaker 1: I mean, Lambert, shit is he ra I mean he
- 11:54Speaker 1: looks good on paper, but you know, as far as
- 11:58Speaker 1: DFS world goes, and then you know, you see the
- 12:00Speaker 1: Angel line up to match up, and you're thinking, huh,
- 12:03Speaker 1: I mean the last three out of four starts, Lambert
- 12:05Speaker 1: has been pretty good. I mean he's uh, he had
- 12:08Speaker 1: eighty nine one hundred and four one oh seven. So
- 12:11Speaker 1: his last three out of five starts, he's been over
- 12:13Speaker 1: one hundred pitches. That's something I look for too, So
- 12:16Speaker 1: I think that's, uh, that's interesting. But yeah, I uh,
- 12:21Speaker 1: I don't have Lambert actually high up. I think nine
- 12:23Speaker 1: k's just too much for me. I'd rather much rather
- 12:26Speaker 1: play rub Blueski against that, against that Seattle team.
- 12:30Speaker 2: But does that well I agree, No, I agree with you,
- 12:34Speaker 2: and I'm not gonna play him either. But it's just
- 12:35Speaker 2: interesting with Lambert. Like the last slate that he was on,
- 12:39Speaker 2: different slate, we didn't have good pitching options, but he
- 12:42Speaker 2: was like fifty percent on against the Marlins. Now he's
- 12:45Speaker 2: against the Angels and he won't get any ownership, So
- 12:47Speaker 2: it's just interesting, you know what I mean?
- 12:49Speaker 1: Yep, yep. Sometimes I think that too, Like, oh man,
- 12:52Speaker 1: if they're in the other park, the other team's park,
- 12:54Speaker 1: you know what, would would they still be even played
- 12:56Speaker 1: or chalky or not played. It's just like sometimes you're
- 12:59Speaker 1: making all everybody's making a whole decision on such like
- 13:02Speaker 1: a half of a run difference and like a you know,
- 13:05Speaker 1: a run difference in a run total or something. It's
- 13:07Speaker 1: just like it's sometimes it is baffling to me. And
- 13:09Speaker 1: that's sometimes pivots I like to make in baseball. But
- 13:13Speaker 1: see a bunch of familiar faces po Jen Stoner, Jake Swalls.
- 13:18Speaker 1: We got Woodie Gane Green, Warren Tyler in the uh,
- 13:22Speaker 1: in the chat, Richie Smalls. So yeah, if anybody has
- 13:27Speaker 1: any other pitchers or anything before we move on to
- 13:30Speaker 1: the bats, let me know before before we get over there.
- 13:33Speaker 1: But I think we pretty much went through pitching pretty well.
- 13:36Speaker 1: I think we all agree. Gavin Williams is uh is
- 13:40Speaker 1: definitely our favorite. I mean, the dude's just been modo
- 13:43Speaker 1: no with three games in a row, eleven caves. I mean,
- 13:45Speaker 1: that's too hard to ignore picking out Cincinnatian. Cincinnati does
- 13:48Speaker 1: have some power, and Gavin Williams will give us some power.
- 13:51Speaker 1: But I mean, if you can give me eight or
- 13:53Speaker 1: nine strikeouts here today, that's definitely something I am looking for.
- 13:59Speaker 1: Any any other thoughts here before we move on to
- 14:01Speaker 1: some bats.
- 14:03Speaker 2: No, I agree, Like, yeah, I think Addan Williams's floor
- 14:06Speaker 2: is low because it always is, and especially in this ballpark,
- 14:10Speaker 2: but his ceiling is, I think, by far on like
- 14:13Speaker 2: the highest of anyone on the slate.
- 14:14Speaker 1: You know, yeah, I gotta agree. I mean it's just
- 14:18Speaker 1: not fun, you know sometimes, like you know, you're you're
- 14:21Speaker 1: sitting there rooting for your pitcher and then all of
- 14:24Speaker 1: a sudden it's Elie, Dela Cruz, South Stewart, JJ Bodey.
- 14:28Speaker 1: You know, the bottom of that lineup doesn't really worry you.
- 14:30Speaker 1: But I mean I think Ellie is a really good player,
- 14:34Speaker 1: but you know, just uh, that would drive me. But
- 14:37Speaker 1: Gavin Way has been good man like that, Dude's been
- 14:39Speaker 1: really good. Like you said, recent form has been good.
- 14:42Speaker 1: So Reds definitely have some k's in that lineup. I
- 14:45Speaker 1: mean they got l twenty six, Eugenal thirty four, Nate
- 14:49Speaker 1: Lou twenty six, Myers twenty seven percent for you to
- 14:53Speaker 1: let the bottom twenty four percent, and then three of
- 14:55Speaker 1: their other bats are in the mid low twenty twenty
- 14:58Speaker 1: and a half twenty point three. So yeah, definitely some
- 15:02Speaker 1: strikeouts for Gavitt. I think he can get the job done,
- 15:04Speaker 1: and he's been better the last month I mean he's
- 15:06Speaker 1: at thirty six per kate against lefties and he's at
- 15:09Speaker 1: forty against righties in the last month too, So I mean, dude,
- 15:14Speaker 1: Gavin's Gavin's throwing missiles up there, that's for sure. All right,
- 15:20Speaker 1: what do we got here? We got nine bets. Probably
- 15:23Speaker 1: should keep the bosses happy. Everybody knows. You see the
- 15:26Speaker 1: code up there, five days for nineteen bucks gets the
- 15:30Speaker 1: ship nineteen. I know too, if you're in the DFS community,
- 15:33Speaker 1: I know they've been in our discord. They're talking about
- 15:35Speaker 1: the event with the big guy up in the sky.
- 15:38Speaker 1: I know. I think they're going out in Vegas. They
- 15:40Speaker 1: have a golf event. I unfortunately will not be able
- 15:43Speaker 1: to go to prior commitments. I wish I could. That'd
- 15:45Speaker 1: probably be a hell of an expensive weekend with all
- 15:47Speaker 1: my DFS boys out in Vegas because somebody be always
- 15:51Speaker 1: wanting to gamble, Matt, and you know, it's like shit,
- 15:53Speaker 1: then you'll be running somebody at the book and they'll
- 15:55Speaker 1: be running over there. Somebody be playing crafts, somebody playing slots,
- 15:58Speaker 1: and you know you better have a stack of hondos
- 16:01Speaker 1: like that in your pocket or yeah, I gotta get
- 16:04Speaker 1: too far, but yeah, It should be a good time,
- 16:07Speaker 1: especially the golf out there. That would be fun. I'd
- 16:09Speaker 1: like to swing some clubs out there with some of
- 16:11Speaker 1: the boys here at ship It and see what see
- 16:14Speaker 1: what we can do has some fun. But you getting
- 16:16Speaker 1: out there for that.
- 16:19Speaker 2: I'm in the exact same boat as you. I can't.
- 16:21Speaker 2: It's my tenth wedding anniversary, so prior commitments like during
- 16:25Speaker 2: that weekend. So yeah, definitely going to be missiing it.
- 16:30Speaker 2: Talked with Ham a bunch about it after the show.
- 16:32Speaker 2: I already have bad FuMO and the trip hasn't even
- 16:34Speaker 2: happened yet, so I feel you.
- 16:38Speaker 1: Yeah, they got last year, everybody came into Michigan for
- 16:41Speaker 1: the live event out here, the Championship team event, and
- 16:45Speaker 1: I heard, you know, they talked about maybe doing that again,
- 16:48Speaker 1: but I think the Vegas thing kind of took over
- 16:49Speaker 1: for that. But I heard tomorrow they're canceling that live
- 16:52Speaker 1: team event here in Michigan, so kind of a bummer.
- 16:56Speaker 1: That was like right down the road, so I know
- 16:57Speaker 1: it brought a lot of money into the area, especially
- 17:00Speaker 1: the bars, so yeah, I.
- 17:03Speaker 2: Know I know how that goes. They just canceled, like
- 17:06Speaker 2: I think it's a senior PG eight event in Akron
- 17:09Speaker 2: at Firestone, which is a famous club, and now there's
- 17:12Speaker 2: no like PGA or Senior PGA or any event at
- 17:15Speaker 2: that club, and there had been for the past, like
- 17:18Speaker 2: however many years. So it's like a big loss to
- 17:20Speaker 2: the community.
- 17:22Speaker 1: Yeah, they did that a little bit here with some
- 17:24Speaker 1: of the Detroit I forgot what I mean, the Rocket Mortgage,
- 17:28Speaker 1: I know, has struggled a little bit here. They used
- 17:30Speaker 1: to have the Buick open here too, and that that's
- 17:34Speaker 1: since you know, gone gone away. But yeah, it's just
- 17:39Speaker 1: that live hold ding thing like them, I mean, with
- 17:41Speaker 1: the money and all that, the sponsorship money. Hopefully they
- 17:45Speaker 1: get that shit sprat straightened out. But yeah, golf's definitely fun.
- 17:49Speaker 1: I miss the Tiger Weds Days. That's what I was
- 17:51Speaker 1: really liking. The watch golf. That was fun. All right, eight,
- 17:55Speaker 1: what do we got? Nine games? We got first one
- 17:58Speaker 1: coming out the gate, the at ten be a doubleheader.
- 18:02Speaker 1: Now this one may not start at seventon they get
- 18:04Speaker 1: the other one done yet. I didn't even see eighth inning. Yeah,
- 18:09Speaker 1: they'll be good. So yeah, this one here at Cleveland
- 18:13Speaker 1: we have coming into Cincinnati. We got a game total
- 18:16Speaker 1: of nine. We got Gavin Williams versus Chase Petty here,
- 18:21Speaker 1: So obviously we're not gonna want to pick on Gavin Williams.
- 18:25Speaker 1: I mean, we were just talking about how good he's
- 18:27Speaker 1: been here recently, But do we want any part of
- 18:32Speaker 1: mister Chase Petty here today?
- 18:35Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's gonna be kind of a bullpen
- 18:37Speaker 2: game for the Reds. Patty's opening, and yeah, I think
- 18:41Speaker 2: the Guardians are in play here. Obviously, a good ballpark,
- 18:44Speaker 2: good hitting weather. Really hard for me to get too
- 18:47Speaker 2: excited about this lineup. Manzarno had a grand slam in
- 18:50Speaker 2: the first inning today. They've actually had a pretty good
- 18:53Speaker 2: day today, but man, it's just tough to hit your
- 18:56Speaker 2: wagon to this this offense right now. So they're im
- 18:59Speaker 2: play because you know, Cincinnati's doesn't have good pitching. Their
- 19:03Speaker 2: bullpen isn't good, Petty isn't good. So just because of that,
- 19:08Speaker 2: I think Cleveland's in play, but I'm not excited about
- 19:12Speaker 2: playing them, And there's other offenses I like more. But
- 19:16Speaker 2: you could do worse in stacking against Petty in the
- 19:18Speaker 2: Reds bullpen in Cincinnati, So I get it. And then
- 19:22Speaker 2: I will just say, like I do think Gavin Williams
- 19:25Speaker 2: is really good, and his ceiling is really high, but
- 19:28Speaker 2: his floor is also low, and I think he's gonna
- 19:30Speaker 2: be really highly owned with no Chris Sale on this slate. Now,
- 19:33Speaker 2: So in tournaments, we've seen crazier things than things than
- 19:38Speaker 2: red stacks. Like if I'm playing one lineup, I'm not
- 19:40Speaker 2: playing the reds, but if I were playing a bunch,
- 19:43Speaker 2: I would have some reds just because Gavin's volatile for
- 19:47Speaker 2: a picture of his quality simply put, Yeah, yeah, I.
- 19:53Speaker 1: Don't mind that especially. I mean we like the park.
- 19:56Speaker 1: I mean, for as much as we like Gavin Williams.
- 19:58Speaker 1: The game totals nine in Vegas, so it's not like
- 20:01Speaker 1: we're looking at a seven total, right Like, So, I
- 20:03Speaker 1: mean that's already telling me that, you know, that game
- 20:06Speaker 1: easily could turn into more of a softball game than
- 20:09Speaker 1: if something was sitting at a seven total, which we
- 20:11Speaker 1: generally see both teams at a you know, mid three
- 20:13Speaker 1: team total. But yeah, so, I mean, I mean, given
- 20:18Speaker 1: Gavin Williams does give up some power, I mean, he
- 20:21Speaker 1: gets barrel from both sides of the plate. I mean,
- 20:23Speaker 1: so far the shear's twelve percent barrel percentage to the
- 20:26Speaker 1: left side, and he's at eleven percent barrel to the
- 20:28Speaker 1: right side, so he does give up some power. But
- 20:31Speaker 1: when you're when you're mowing down eleven dudes, I mean,
- 20:34Speaker 1: you don't really give a shit if he gives up
- 20:35Speaker 1: two or three single home you know, solo shots, you know,
- 20:38Speaker 1: and still gives up maybe two or three runs and
- 20:41Speaker 1: you know, so forth. But I mean, yeah, his strikeout
- 20:43Speaker 1: capability is definitely something that's working on. But yeah, I
- 20:47Speaker 1: could see that. Would you rather like play would you
- 20:49Speaker 1: just go full stack or are you thinking like maybe
- 20:51Speaker 1: just pluck some one offs, you know, like JJ Budet
- 20:55Speaker 1: or Nate loudown there. Uh, it's got pretty good WOVA
- 20:58Speaker 1: against Wrighty so far this year, you know, is that
- 21:01Speaker 1: something that you'd be looking at? I mean, Gavin Williams
- 21:05Speaker 1: does have a mid ground ball league too. He's up
- 21:06Speaker 1: about forty six percent to the both sides, so I mean,
- 21:10Speaker 1: but they does get the ball up in the air
- 21:12Speaker 1: the best of all the Reds hitters, So maybe that's
- 21:15Speaker 1: somewhere you might want to look.
- 21:16Speaker 2: Yeah, I think either or honestly, like you could full
- 21:19Speaker 2: stack the Reds here and play for like the outlier result,
- 21:21Speaker 2: but obviously that's more unlikely to happen. Then, you know,
- 21:26Speaker 2: I like the picking out like a JJ blade because
- 21:29Speaker 2: you know, if you're not playing Gavin Williams, there's probably
- 21:32Speaker 2: a reason why he's not that expensive. So using a
- 21:36Speaker 2: bat or two from Cincinnati, even if you don't fully
- 21:38Speaker 2: stack them, makes sense.
- 21:39Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, especially if you don't, you know, like Gavin.
- 21:45Speaker 1: I think that's, like you said, that's definitely a place
- 21:48Speaker 1: to get you some leverage. So the next bunch of games,
- 21:53Speaker 1: and we go from seven to ten, and we have
- 21:54Speaker 1: three in the seven to forty five window, and then
- 21:57Speaker 1: we got what five games at the ninety and later windows,
- 22:01Speaker 1: So I mean, if you're into them late slates and
- 22:03Speaker 1: you want to stay up, you know, you got five
- 22:06Speaker 1: decent games that start from nine thirty eight and later.
- 22:09Speaker 1: But we got nine, seven forty, We got Yankees and
- 22:13Speaker 1: White Sox. We got Garrett Cole been looking decent here
- 22:16Speaker 1: in recent times, I mean, his highest priced pitcher. But
- 22:19Speaker 1: it's just tough to sit there and fool around with
- 22:22Speaker 1: these White Sox who've been pretty good here in recent times.
- 22:25Speaker 1: But I mean he's sitting here looking at the Yankees
- 22:28Speaker 1: against Anthony k I mean, strikeout percentage against righties is
- 22:33Speaker 1: pretty low fifteen percent. You know he does get burled
- 22:38Speaker 1: up ten percent by righty's. I mean, were looking at
- 22:40Speaker 1: some rities here, maybe gold Schmidt, do Minguez, somebody like
- 22:45Speaker 1: that Bulpe maybe if you wanted to go that route.
- 22:48Speaker 1: I don't know about Rosario. I always have a hard time.
- 22:50Speaker 1: I know he'd be fairly cheap, But man, do you
- 22:53Speaker 1: want and you got any interest in going against Cole
- 22:56Speaker 1: with some of these lefties over here on the White
- 22:59Speaker 1: Sox and what do you think of them?
- 23:00Speaker 2: Spankyes, I don't really want to pay the high price
- 23:04Speaker 2: tag for Cole because he's uber pricey and I don't
- 23:09Speaker 2: like the matchup, but I don't really want to stack
- 23:11Speaker 2: against him either. On this slate, I could see either
- 23:14Speaker 2: side of it, Like Cole has been good coming off
- 23:17Speaker 2: a really good start, and I think he was really
- 23:18Speaker 2: good to start before that White Sox crush right handed pitching,
- 23:23Speaker 2: both sides will probably be well. The White Sox will
- 23:26Speaker 2: definitely be low, and Cole probably gets some ownership because
- 23:29Speaker 2: no Chris Sale. But I don't really love Cole and
- 23:33Speaker 2: again probably won't stack the White Sox either. The Yankees
- 23:38Speaker 2: their lineup pretty gross. I'm sure they run out a
- 23:40Speaker 2: similar lineup that they had yesterday when they faced Noah
- 23:44Speaker 2: Schultz another lefty Rosario. To your point, I don't know
- 23:47Speaker 2: if their lineups out, but will probably be in there tonight.
- 23:50Speaker 2: I don't love them as a full stack. I think
- 23:52Speaker 2: you can definitely play pieces all the guys you mentioned.
- 23:56Speaker 2: I like Volpe as a cheap shortstop. Not super exciting,
- 24:00Speaker 2: but middle of the lineup, cheap shortstop. I'm cool with it.
- 24:04Speaker 2: Ben Rice always in play. Max Schuman let off for
- 24:07Speaker 2: them last night, like he's he stinks, but he's let off.
- 24:11Speaker 2: He's cheap. Sure, Yeah, I mean I guess I could
- 24:15Speaker 2: talk myself into the staff. I don't love it, though.
- 24:20Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not really a fan either. I was just looking.
- 24:22Speaker 1: Kay does generally seem to get mid eighty pitches, so
- 24:26Speaker 1: you know, you're probably gonna get two, maybe three at
- 24:29Speaker 1: bats for somebody like Rosario if he is in that
- 24:32Speaker 1: three hole, you know, because I mean, if they pinch it,
- 24:35Speaker 1: you're probably gonna see You're probably gonna see a lefty
- 24:37Speaker 1: come off. Or you know, if they throw a righty
- 24:39Speaker 1: out there, you're proably gonna see a left he come
- 24:40Speaker 1: off the bench. So I mean, at best you're gonna
- 24:43Speaker 1: get two or three out of Rosario unless you know,
- 24:45Speaker 1: the game isn't that tight to where they make any
- 24:48Speaker 1: kind of difference. So that's my only reason why I
- 24:49Speaker 1: said I kind of worry about him being up there
- 24:52Speaker 1: in that in that spot of the lineup. So yeah,
- 24:55Speaker 1: for me, I got Yankees outside, like my top five,
- 24:57Speaker 1: I don't I don't really particularly I love it here
- 25:00Speaker 1: today either, I mean kind of rare. I mean, it
- 25:03Speaker 1: seems like we had Yankees most days, but yeah, today
- 25:06Speaker 1: for me, I'll just pass next one. We got Twins Royals.
- 25:10Speaker 1: We got Lugo pitching for the Royals against the Twins,
- 25:16Speaker 1: who I've been enjoying picking on here in recent times.
- 25:19Speaker 1: And then we got the Royals against TODs Bradley, who
- 25:21Speaker 1: we did talk about a little bit, who we did
- 25:24Speaker 1: seem to like Bradley then a little bit more than
- 25:27Speaker 1: we'd like the Royals offense. But yeah, man, I mean,
- 25:31Speaker 1: Seth Lugo for me is a guy that I mean,
- 25:34Speaker 1: we've been picking on the Wolbas hide to both sides
- 25:36Speaker 1: of the plate. Fly ball percentages are high thirty three
- 25:39Speaker 1: percent to the right side, thirty percent to the left side.
- 25:42Speaker 1: He's been getting buried up by both sides, so I
- 25:45Speaker 1: mean k percentages are a blow average on both sides.
- 25:48Speaker 1: So yeah, I do like some Twins here in this one.
- 25:51Speaker 1: But I'd say I got the Twins probably maybe fourth,
- 25:57Speaker 1: third or fourth in my list today. I do like
- 26:00Speaker 1: the uh. I do like the Dodgers, as I mentioned
- 26:02Speaker 1: a little earlier, maybe a little Red Sox coming up here.
- 26:05Speaker 1: But yeah, so for me, uh yeah, let me uh,
- 26:11Speaker 1: let me, let me have some of these, Let me
- 26:13Speaker 1: have some of these Twins. I mean, I like the
- 26:15Speaker 1: Twins too because they do fill up all the middle
- 26:16Speaker 1: positions pretty well too. That kind of sucks. So I
- 26:20Speaker 1: do like the Twins, maybe more of a many for me.
- 26:24Speaker 2: Yeah, I think my only thing that I don't love
- 26:25Speaker 2: about the Twins is their price tags, like they're expensive
- 26:28Speaker 2: up top, But I like the spot. Lugo has not
- 26:31Speaker 2: been good this year. Teams have gone off against him
- 26:35Speaker 2: multiple times. The Twins. You know, I'm fine stacking them.
- 26:42Speaker 2: I'm never excited about stacking them, but I'm with you.
- 26:45Speaker 2: I think they're a top five stack on this slate probably,
- 26:49Speaker 2: I don't know, we haven't gone through all the teams.
- 26:51Speaker 2: Probably like fifth for me, but yeah, always fine stacking
- 26:57Speaker 2: against Lugo. I don't think they're really highly owned. I
- 27:00Speaker 2: think the Red Sox again or the highest own team
- 27:02Speaker 2: on the slate by a good amount. So anything other
- 27:05Speaker 2: than the Red Sox and some pieces of the Dodgers
- 27:08Speaker 2: maybe is gonna be different. So the Twins fall in
- 27:11Speaker 2: that bucket. I like stacking against Lugo. Yeah, Twins definitely
- 27:14Speaker 2: the side of this game I like. I guess I
- 27:17Speaker 2: don't hate the Royals either, especially if TODs Bradley's gonna
- 27:20Speaker 2: get ownerships. Kind of the same case I made with
- 27:23Speaker 2: the Reds against Gavin Williams. It's weird todzs Bradley's been
- 27:28Speaker 2: less volatile than Gavin Williams this season, or at least
- 27:30Speaker 2: recently without the crazy upside. But we've seen TODs Bradley
- 27:37Speaker 2: for years and he's volatile. So any start that TODs
- 27:41Speaker 2: Bradley gets blown up in will not surprise me. So
- 27:44Speaker 2: just because of that, the Royals aren't playing tournaments.
- 27:50Speaker 1: All right, I do like that. Actually, it's just hard
- 27:52Speaker 1: for me always to play the Royals. I mean, I
- 27:54Speaker 1: do like parts of the Royals. It's just like I
- 27:57Speaker 1: know some people do it. I just block teams out
- 27:59Speaker 1: that I just don't think or you know, are going
- 28:01Speaker 1: to get me to the top because I don't have
- 28:03Speaker 1: enough power and can't roll through a lineup that well
- 28:06Speaker 1: and there's too many road bumps. And yeah, the the
- 28:09Speaker 1: Royals have been one of those teams for me for
- 28:12Speaker 1: I mean, not as much this year as last year,
- 28:14Speaker 1: but yeah so, I mean, especially when when Bobby Wits
- 28:19Speaker 1: not in there, it just makes it mix it even worse.
- 28:22Speaker 1: But this next game, I do like some Cubbies, and
- 28:26Speaker 1: we got some cards here. We got Colin Ray on
- 28:29Speaker 1: the mound for the Cubs, and then we got Michael
- 28:32Speaker 1: McGreevy on the mound. I mean McGreevy here is a
- 28:35Speaker 1: guy that I think we can attack obviously with some lefties.
- 28:37Speaker 1: His K percentage is at thirteen and a half percent.
- 28:41Speaker 1: He's been getting buriled up at ten percent, so I think,
- 28:45Speaker 1: I mean he is a mid ground ball lean. I
- 28:47Speaker 1: mean his flag ball percentage is higher to the left side.
- 28:49Speaker 1: So somebody like PCA who's just been has been hitting
- 28:52Speaker 1: the shit out of the ball. Michael Bush, I think
- 28:56Speaker 1: we could look at. I mean, we know Bush likes
- 28:59Speaker 1: like some law and likes to hit them long, So
- 29:02Speaker 1: you know, I think Coubbies for me, are interesting. I
- 29:05Speaker 1: think the cards on the other side against Ray, I mean,
- 29:07Speaker 1: Ray does give some up some power to the right side,
- 29:10Speaker 1: so I mean he's got a barrel percentage at fifteen percent,
- 29:14Speaker 1: half to the left side at seven percent. K percentage
- 29:17Speaker 1: is lower to the right side, so he's reversed splitzy
- 29:20Speaker 1: ground balls, kind of low flyball percentage at thirty eight percent.
- 29:23Speaker 1: His flyball percentage to the left side's only at eighteen percent,
- 29:27Speaker 1: so and you don't really see it that much. And
- 29:29Speaker 1: we're talking two seventy five plate appearances to the left
- 29:32Speaker 1: side one eighty seven, so it's it's a pretty good,
- 29:35Speaker 1: pretty good sample side. So I mean for me, I
- 29:38Speaker 1: mean I like some of the righties we got here,
- 29:40Speaker 1: like Jordan Walker. I mean I'm looking at you know,
- 29:43Speaker 1: Walker Herrera. I think it's interesting. But I mean you
- 29:46Speaker 1: can still throw in some of these lefties in here.
- 29:48Speaker 1: Burlson hits the shit out of right He's he's got
- 29:50Speaker 1: a four to twelve wOBA against the right side. So
- 29:54Speaker 1: I think you could look at both sides here, and
- 29:58Speaker 1: I mean you could game stack those one. I wouldn't
- 30:01Speaker 1: mind that. I do think that. I think I like
- 30:05Speaker 1: some Cardinals, actually a little bit more in the Cubs,
- 30:08Speaker 1: so I'm not too sure. I'm gonna put them like
- 30:12Speaker 1: maybe four and five like in my bunch. You know,
- 30:15Speaker 1: they'd be in my top five, both of them. But
- 30:16Speaker 1: I think it'd be a decent game stack because both
- 30:18Speaker 1: pitchers are not going to be missing any bats. I
- 30:21Speaker 1: think you're gonna get a lot of balls and play
- 30:22Speaker 1: on both sides. So I mean this one could turn
- 30:25Speaker 1: into an is interesting game and get us some runs here.
- 30:27Speaker 1: I think this one's a game that would be on
- 30:29Speaker 1: my low owned list like where like you said, Dodgers
- 30:32Speaker 1: is not a Red Sox type stack, So this one here,
- 30:35Speaker 1: I think could definitely could get you a top of
- 30:37Speaker 1: a turner one of these two teams.
- 30:39Speaker 2: I totally agree with you see this exactly the same way.
- 30:43Speaker 2: Both these pitchers are not good. Mcgreeveys a pitcher I
- 30:46Speaker 2: wanted to pick on and have picked on all season.
- 30:49Speaker 2: Expected numbers way worse than his actual numbers. Now he's
- 30:53Speaker 2: gotten by with smoking mirror as much of the season,
- 30:55Speaker 2: but the negative regression has been coming and I think continues.
- 30:58Speaker 2: So I like the Cubs, but like the Cardinals, I
- 31:01Speaker 2: think even more like you said Ray is bad, maybe
- 31:06Speaker 2: even worse than a grievy. And I think the Cardinals
- 31:09Speaker 2: are real low own on this slate, Like I think
- 31:11Speaker 2: the Cubs are not like owned as much as Boston
- 31:15Speaker 2: or the Dodgers, but I think the Cardinals come in
- 31:18Speaker 2: like real low owned. So that intrigues me a lot.
- 31:21Speaker 2: So I'm interested there. I think if yeah, we just
- 31:25Speaker 2: talked about the Twins, I think I'm gonna move them
- 31:27Speaker 2: out of my top five and put both these teams
- 31:29Speaker 2: in there.
- 31:33Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I just like it because I think
- 31:35Speaker 1: you're just gonna see a game that's gonna go back
- 31:37Speaker 1: and forth, probably you know, score some runs back and forth,
- 31:40Speaker 1: and then you know it's I think this one definitely
- 31:43Speaker 1: has a potential to be like an eight to seven
- 31:46Speaker 1: type game. I mean, something we're looking for. Ray has,
- 31:48Speaker 1: like you said, it's just been bad. I mean he's
- 31:50Speaker 1: actually double worse to the to the right side statistically
- 31:55Speaker 1: so far this year. And like I said, it's been
- 31:57Speaker 1: pretty big sample size, like damn man, Like normally see
- 32:00Speaker 1: that's like fifty or sixty at bats, like you don't
- 32:02Speaker 1: see it in the Honda, like just far into the
- 32:05Speaker 1: season generally per se, like being that splitzy and like,
- 32:09Speaker 1: like I said, eighteen percent flyball Ray to the other
- 32:11Speaker 1: side being like a thirty seven, Like that's that's kind
- 32:14Speaker 1: of bizarre too. So yeah, let's let's attack some Colin
- 32:18Speaker 1: Ray with with some cards. So the other one we
- 32:23Speaker 1: got here, next one as we get to the nine
- 32:27Speaker 1: to forty windows. So if you got that late, like
- 32:29Speaker 1: I said, you got a decent lake slate. So if
- 32:30Speaker 1: you start out like shit and you're a degenerate, like
- 32:34Speaker 1: generally like I am, you know, I'm already looking forward.
- 32:36Speaker 1: If my pitcher got blue up or something like that
- 32:39Speaker 1: in the early window, well shit, I got five games
- 32:41Speaker 1: to maybe get some money back here in the late slate.
- 32:44Speaker 1: So we got we got Houston, we got Lambert, and
- 32:47Speaker 1: then we got Reed Detmers on the hill today, I
- 32:50Speaker 1: actually kind of prefer both sides of the pitching. I mean,
- 32:54Speaker 1: in my world, you can always play JR. Don Alvarez.
- 32:57Speaker 1: I mean that dude, I don't give a shit if
- 32:59Speaker 1: it's a left ear not he still hits left. He's
- 33:01Speaker 1: at a three seventy four wOBA, which it's got to
- 33:04Speaker 1: be pretty close to the top. I don't know if
- 33:05Speaker 1: Schwarber's better, but so I mean, I don't really ever
- 33:10Speaker 1: mind him. I mean, I don't mind picking on the
- 33:13Speaker 1: picking on the Angels bullpen, which is not very good,
- 33:17Speaker 1: but I don't really see any reason for me. I
- 33:19Speaker 1: think it's just kind of pushing it to play either
- 33:21Speaker 1: one of these teams. Lambert's been just so good here
- 33:25Speaker 1: so far this year, so for me, I don't even
- 33:27Speaker 1: have these teams really on my radar. But I mean,
- 33:30Speaker 1: if he did, like I said, you could maybe play
- 33:32Speaker 1: a Jordan, I'd never felt I'd never argue with that,
- 33:35Speaker 1: especially I you're gonna get him low owned.
- 33:37Speaker 2: I agree with that, but I actually like the Angels
- 33:39Speaker 2: more than you do. Lambert is really really big reverse
- 33:44Speaker 2: splitz you just talked about Ray Lambert mighte have the
- 33:47Speaker 2: most pronounced splits of anyone in baseball as far as
- 33:50Speaker 2: his reverse splitz go. And we know the Angels all
- 33:53Speaker 2: their best hitters are righties. So yeah, net O Trout Solaire,
- 34:00Speaker 2: I don't hate the lefties either, if you're stacking, but
- 34:02Speaker 2: I think they're another low owned stack that has upside
- 34:04Speaker 2: on this slate. You know, I understand why Boston is
- 34:09Speaker 2: gonna be so highly owned, and the Dodgers obviously against
- 34:12Speaker 2: Luisca Steele. But outside of that, like, I like, some
- 34:15Speaker 2: teams that are gonna be way lower owned than the field,
- 34:18Speaker 2: way more than the field. So this is one of them.
- 34:22Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, I mean I think let's like, let's just
- 34:28Speaker 1: like lay it out like Dodger. I like, between Dodgers
- 34:31Speaker 1: in Red Sox, do we think that's gonna be over
- 34:34Speaker 1: like a fifty percent ownership between the two teams to
- 34:38Speaker 1: where you know, like some of these other teams are
- 34:40Speaker 1: all going to be in the less than ten percent.
- 34:42Speaker 1: Is what I'm going to assume, is that where you
- 34:44Speaker 1: think we're at?
- 34:45Speaker 2: Yeah, I think honestly most of that comes from Boston,
- 34:48Speaker 2: though the Dodgers it's tough because they're really really expensive,
- 34:52Speaker 2: So I don't know, Yeah, maybe forty yeah, forty to
- 34:57Speaker 2: fifty percent probably somewhere around there.
- 34:59Speaker 1: Yeah, So I was just trying to gauge, like, I mean,
- 35:01Speaker 1: we got a lot of options that I think can
- 35:03Speaker 1: get to where we need to get to to try
- 35:05Speaker 1: to beat you know, like a Red Sox team out
- 35:08Speaker 1: there in Sacramento playing you know, a higher altitude with
- 35:11Speaker 1: a you know, game total of ten here tonight. But yeah,
- 35:15Speaker 1: and then what Dodgers got a nine and a half total.
- 35:17Speaker 1: But yeah, so, I mean we got this other game
- 35:20Speaker 1: out here in San Diego where we have Michael Lorenzen,
- 35:25Speaker 1: who we definitely like to pick on against Michael King
- 35:30Speaker 1: and the and the Rockies here today. I mean King
- 35:33Speaker 1: a pretty big favorite minus like I said, like a
- 35:35Speaker 1: minus two forty minus two thirty three I'm looking at.
- 35:39Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean you had a little interesting King
- 35:41Speaker 1: more than me. Do you have any interest in maybe
- 35:45Speaker 1: bouncing it back with you know, like a one off,
- 35:48Speaker 1: like a lefty one off maybe like a moniac or
- 35:51Speaker 1: or somebody like that, or you know, do you just
- 35:55Speaker 1: you just wanting to leave it be? And do you
- 35:57Speaker 1: want to stack any padres against against the Rockies team?
- 36:01Speaker 1: And I mean Lorenzen is not obviously be getting low
- 36:04Speaker 1: k rates get smashed against lefties. I mean cronin Worth,
- 36:09Speaker 1: maybe Jackson, Merrill, Gavin Sheets, maybe somewhere around them guys.
- 36:14Speaker 2: Yeah, so not really in on the Rockies guys. I
- 36:16Speaker 2: like King. I understand it, Like you don't like King
- 36:19Speaker 2: as much as I do. And the Lefties are a
- 36:20Speaker 2: thing and he'be he owned, so I get it. But
- 36:23Speaker 2: I like the I like King, and I like the Padres.
- 36:26Speaker 2: Lorenzen is you know, of all the pitchers we've talked
- 36:31Speaker 2: about mcgree v Ray, all of them, he's the worst.
- 36:35Speaker 2: So you get a bad ballpark here for a hitting obviously,
- 36:37Speaker 2: but the vibes are high for the Padres right now.
- 36:40Speaker 2: There's coming off a sweep of the Marlins on the road.
- 36:43Speaker 2: They came back late in that Sunday game. I like
- 36:46Speaker 2: them at lower ownership against Lorenzen. They're cheap. They got
- 36:51Speaker 2: some expensive guys up top to Tisa Machado namely, but
- 36:54Speaker 2: they've got other, you know, much much cheaper guys to
- 36:58Speaker 2: balance it out. And I love the mats up in
- 37:00Speaker 2: the ownership. So I like the Padres here.
- 37:04Speaker 1: Yeah, I see uh Rin Gifo getting some love in
- 37:08Speaker 1: the chat from from Warren to Zero in Guifo Insanity runn.
- 37:12Speaker 1: He's been good, he's been yeah, yeah, he has been
- 37:17Speaker 1: pretty good. I mean too. I mean, like I said,
- 37:19Speaker 1: if you're I'm not, I'm not all tickled too much
- 37:21Speaker 1: about playing, but I don't mind like the like five, six,
- 37:24Speaker 1: seven hitters. If you're looking for some you know, Jackson
- 37:27Speaker 1: Merrill if you want to go in Gifo and then
- 37:29Speaker 1: Gavin Sheets down there. If that's where they end up
- 37:31Speaker 1: in the lineup, if that's projected. I mean, I I
- 37:34Speaker 1: don't mind that little little bunch. It's just harder to
- 37:37Speaker 1: play teams, you know, out there and in in San Diego,
- 37:40Speaker 1: especially in that later window in the day that you
- 37:43Speaker 1: know we talk if you okay.
- 37:46Speaker 2: So here's one I'll throw back to you because this
- 37:50Speaker 2: is kind of the opposite of what we talked about
- 37:52Speaker 2: before the show started. If this game we're in Colorado,
- 37:56Speaker 2: the Padres would be by far the highest on team
- 37:59Speaker 2: on a slate. They're not in Colorado, they're in San Diego,
- 38:03Speaker 2: but it's still the same matchup, and they're gonna be
- 38:06Speaker 2: low owned, like low. They're not gonna be like one percent,
- 38:10Speaker 2: but they're not going to be ten percent owned either
- 38:12Speaker 2: for the most part. So what's your take there.
- 38:15Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean when you look at it that way,
- 38:17Speaker 1: I mean, that's what we were talking about. How many
- 38:19Speaker 1: times do we see a team and you know, and
- 38:21Speaker 1: they're in the other park and then nobody's playing them.
- 38:24Speaker 1: I mean, that's this is a perfect situation actually, and
- 38:26Speaker 1: it's a shitty pitcher on the other side and a
- 38:28Speaker 1: bullpen that we that we don't mind picking on I mean,
- 38:31Speaker 1: Colorado is definitely a top five worst bullpen in baseball.
- 38:35Speaker 1: So I mean we yeah, we got it. We got
- 38:37Speaker 1: it all the way around. And then you know you're
- 38:39Speaker 1: sitting there with the Padres. It's just you know, I
- 38:43Speaker 1: I don't mind it. It's just the Padres for me, haven't.
- 38:46Speaker 1: I guess I'd feel better about it if it was
- 38:48Speaker 1: a team I've played more this year.
- 38:50Speaker 2: Like, I know, you're not a Padres guy. But to
- 38:52Speaker 2: the other point of that, they've been good over the
- 38:54Speaker 2: past month. They've been in better matchups on the road,
- 38:57Speaker 2: and I like them on the road more, but they
- 38:59Speaker 2: have been a lot better over the past month.
- 39:01Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that's a team that's like a disappointing
- 39:03Speaker 1: team too. You see some of the names on that team.
- 39:05Speaker 1: You know they're.
- 39:08Speaker 2: Right, like they're talented for sure.
- 39:10Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. And then you know, you get a Rockies,
- 39:13Speaker 1: you get a Michael Lorenzen. I still laugh. Didn't Michael
- 39:16Speaker 1: Lorenzen throw a no hitter or something like? I always
- 39:18Speaker 1: just laughed he did.
- 39:20Speaker 2: That's a good call. That is just crazy.
- 39:24Speaker 1: That one always made me laugh. But uh yeah, so yeah,
- 39:27Speaker 1: we got some Padres and the what do you put
- 39:29Speaker 1: the Padres to like the Cobbies, the Cards the Twins.
- 39:32Speaker 1: What do you think I.
- 39:34Speaker 2: Like them more than the Twins. I think I'm gonna
- 39:36Speaker 2: be lower of the Twins in the field, and I
- 39:39Speaker 2: liked them probably as much as the Cubs and Cardinals especially,
- 39:44Speaker 2: just I like that last point that we talked about
- 39:45Speaker 2: because we were just talking about that, and usually it's
- 39:47Speaker 2: the other side where teams are getting a lot of ownership,
- 39:51Speaker 2: Like if this game were like, for instance, if this
- 39:53Speaker 2: game were in Colorado and the Padres were super chalky,
- 39:57Speaker 2: we'd be saying, if this game we're in San Diego,
- 40:00Speaker 2: they wouldn't get any love, So we could flip it
- 40:02Speaker 2: on its head. But in this instance, I like the
- 40:05Speaker 2: case for playing them, So I like San Diego.
- 40:07Speaker 1: Here this game's in Colorado. It's a ten to eleven
- 40:12Speaker 1: total two to three run difference, is the way I
- 40:16Speaker 1: would look at it. So, I mean, if you went
- 40:17Speaker 1: to your optimizer and bumped that game up to like
- 40:20Speaker 1: an eleven and even in San Diego, and spun it
- 40:24Speaker 1: like it was in Colorado, you'd be surprised probably how
- 40:26Speaker 1: many Padres come up.
- 40:29Speaker 2: All right about it?
- 40:31Speaker 1: So let's move to the big one. The next one,
- 40:33Speaker 1: here we have Boston going out there to Sacramento. I mean, shit,
- 40:39Speaker 1: the red hot, red Hot Red Sox at the fire
- 40:41Speaker 1: of their manager roll off like fifteen in a row.
- 40:45Speaker 1: I mean, that's just definitely baseball. But you know, I
- 40:48Speaker 1: always I was laughing with a couple of my buddies,
- 40:50Speaker 1: was a Red Sox fan. I'm like, hey, is it
- 40:51Speaker 1: like that Major League movie where they got the pin
- 40:53Speaker 1: up of the old owner's wife and they're like ripping
- 40:56Speaker 1: pieces off if they're winning games and shit, and they're like,
- 40:59Speaker 1: you know, I'll have having fun and all that crap.
- 41:01Speaker 1: I was kind of laughing with him about it. But yeah, So,
- 41:05Speaker 1: I mean we're sitting there with the Red Sox here
- 41:06Speaker 1: against Gage Jump So I mean, really, we're looking at
- 41:12Speaker 1: a twenty four percent k rate to basically both sides
- 41:16Speaker 1: of the plate. Doesn't really get burroled all up that much.
- 41:19Speaker 1: I mean, flyball percentages are not that great, twenty eight
- 41:23Speaker 1: percent to the left side, twenty six and a half
- 41:26Speaker 1: to the to the right side. He does get more
- 41:27Speaker 1: ground balls to the right side at forty two percent,
- 41:30Speaker 1: But I mean you look at some of these Red Sox,
- 41:33Speaker 1: I mean they do beat up some lefties I mean
- 41:36Speaker 1: Contreras Wilson, Contrera's four twenty nine wOBA Mead who they
- 41:39Speaker 1: just got into trade which man Connor Early. For me,
- 41:43Speaker 1: when I saw that one, I was just like, that
- 41:45Speaker 1: one's gonna be interesting to pay attention to in the
- 41:47Speaker 1: next in the next couple of years, because I got
- 41:50Speaker 1: a feeling Early is going to be pretty good. You're
- 41:52Speaker 1: moving forward. But yes, I mean made that line up better.
- 41:56Speaker 1: I mean, I can't believe Jamani Jones may be in
- 41:58Speaker 1: that line up either because he hit a beach ball
- 42:01Speaker 1: on the fucking Tigers here in recent times, but he'll
- 42:05Speaker 1: probably have a decent night because I ripped on him.
- 42:08Speaker 1: But either way, I think the Red Sox are definitely
- 42:10Speaker 1: gonna be in play here out there in Sacramento. You
- 42:13Speaker 1: got that bullpen for the A's that is not very
- 42:17Speaker 1: good at all, definitely one of the worst bullpens in baseball.
- 42:20Speaker 1: So yeah, I can definitely see why everybody's on the
- 42:22Speaker 1: Red Sox. But you know, we were talking about Matt like,
- 42:24Speaker 1: when the Red Sox are winning all the games, me
- 42:26Speaker 1: and Nate literally mentioned like they're not like killing everybody.
- 42:29Speaker 1: They weren't putting up a bunch of runs they're winning five,
- 42:32Speaker 1: you know, five to two, six to four, you know,
- 42:35Speaker 1: like they were winning games, close games, mid level scoring,
- 42:38Speaker 1: low scoring games. They weren't putting up huge numbers, but
- 42:41Speaker 1: definitely been winning a lot of ball games. But I mean,
- 42:45Speaker 1: which doesn't really matter in DFS unless it's your pitcher.
- 42:48Speaker 1: But for me, you know, I think the Red Sox
- 42:51Speaker 1: are in play. I'm not sure I like him as
- 42:53Speaker 1: much as everybody else does, just because I don't normally
- 42:58Speaker 1: play the Red Sox, it seems like in recent times,
- 43:01Speaker 1: so whenever I feel like a team I'm not normally playing,
- 43:03Speaker 1: all of a sudden it's chalky, like I can find
- 43:05Speaker 1: more reasons in my brain to say why not to
- 43:07Speaker 1: play it. But I do like this lineup a lot
- 43:10Speaker 1: better with Meat at the top. I mean that dude
- 43:12Speaker 1: does hit left. He's pretty well, I mean three eighty
- 43:15Speaker 1: five whoba pretty decent walk rate. So yeah, I can
- 43:19Speaker 1: see why the Red Sox are chocky.
- 43:21Speaker 2: We'll see if Mean's in there tonight. He left early
- 43:23Speaker 2: after getting hit in the hand and the second and
- 43:25Speaker 2: the second and that bat, so yeah, I mean, that
- 43:28Speaker 2: would definitely be a big loss for them. So first off,
- 43:32Speaker 2: you know, the vibes are high when we're getting major
- 43:33Speaker 2: league references because that's my favorite movie ever, so love
- 43:37Speaker 2: this shout out. And yeah, this one's tough because I
- 43:42Speaker 2: like gags jump as an arm. But you look at
- 43:44Speaker 2: his home and road numbers, home and road splits, I
- 43:48Speaker 2: should say, and he's so much worse at home, and
- 43:51Speaker 2: it makes sense this ballpark. You get Boston here, and
- 43:55Speaker 2: they're just basically so cheap outside of contraras and meat
- 43:58Speaker 2: if he's in there. So I think the thing you
- 44:02Speaker 2: said that I totally agree with is I really like
- 44:05Speaker 2: Boston here. I just don't know if I like them
- 44:07Speaker 2: as much as the field does, especially when there's other
- 44:10Speaker 2: stacks that I like that the field doesn't really like.
- 44:13Speaker 2: So yeah, I think Boston is the scariest team to
- 44:17Speaker 2: fade on this slate, and I think on paper they
- 44:20Speaker 2: look pretty clearly like the best stack, but you know,
- 44:24Speaker 2: it's baseball. Weird stuff happens nightly, and I do respect
- 44:29Speaker 2: games jumping off where he's not a guy, even at
- 44:32Speaker 2: home where I'm like, I have to stack against him.
- 44:34Speaker 2: So I'm not exactly sure how I'm gonna play yet. Obviously,
- 44:38Speaker 2: the Red Sox rank high for me, but I just
- 44:41Speaker 2: don't know if I want to ride all the ownership there.
- 44:45Speaker 1: Yeah, Like I was saying, like, whenever there's a team
- 44:47Speaker 1: that's fairly chalky, you know that, I just normally normally
- 44:51Speaker 1: don't like to play. Like to me, it's just like okay,
- 44:54Speaker 1: And then I got to just keep myself in line
- 44:56Speaker 1: and not be stubborn and get fallen into the you know,
- 44:59Speaker 1: all the you know everything you're hearing chirping in your
- 45:02Speaker 1: ear by this deck and this, and you're hearing different
- 45:03Speaker 1: people why they like something, or you're reading different things
- 45:06Speaker 1: and or you just dive into different numbers, and you know,
- 45:09Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, when you've initially looked at it.
- 45:11Speaker 1: I always like to take my initial look. You're like, oh, man,
- 45:15Speaker 1: that Cubs Cardinals game looks interesting, and then you kind
- 45:18Speaker 1: of look like, man, nois talking about the Cubs Cardinals.
- 45:20Speaker 1: It was like my first instinct when I looked at it.
- 45:22Speaker 1: Like a lot of times, I just like to rely
- 45:24Speaker 1: on my first instinct sometimes. And you know, like it's
- 45:27Speaker 1: easy when a team like the Dodgers is insane, you know,
- 45:30Speaker 1: Sacramento or Colorado. I mean, it jumps right out to
- 45:33Speaker 1: you on the page it's like, I mean it's easy
- 45:35Speaker 1: to see. But like when I see like my teams
- 45:38Speaker 1: that I don't normally play that are in the good
- 45:40Speaker 1: situations that you know, sometimes I'm just willing to fade
- 45:44Speaker 1: that if it beat me, it beat me kind of thing,
- 45:46Speaker 1: you know, and maybe play a team that I'm not
- 45:49Speaker 1: that I do like to play that. Maybe I like
- 45:51Speaker 1: the Cubs like tonight, like we like to play the
- 45:53Speaker 1: car I go. I mean they're good up and down,
- 45:55Speaker 1: they can turn the lineup over, they score runs, you know.
- 45:58Speaker 1: So for me, I think that that's definitely, you know,
- 46:02Speaker 1: something I'd like to do. And play somebody different, like
- 46:04Speaker 1: I mean, that's DFS baseball, especially if you're playing tournaments,
- 46:07Speaker 1: because especially tournaments. I mean, we don't play too many
- 46:11Speaker 1: cash games anymore. So, I mean it's just it just
- 46:14Speaker 1: seems to the way it is, so yeah, definitely different
- 46:17Speaker 1: perspective that everybody else has. So yeah, definitely whenever a
- 46:20Speaker 1: team was jock. I guess my point is that nobody
- 46:22Speaker 1: that I just hardly ever play, I just generally just
- 46:25Speaker 1: like to leave it alone, like why force it, you know,
- 46:28Speaker 1: like and then you're forcing it when everybody else is
- 46:30Speaker 1: forcing it to me it's like a double dumb ass move.
- 46:35Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's hard to win tournaments, like even when
- 46:37Speaker 2: those teams are the highest scoring teams, Like if you
- 46:41Speaker 2: stack Boston to Night and they go off, you're gonna
- 46:43Speaker 2: min cast for sure, but like you better have all
- 46:47Speaker 2: the right pieces in the one offs and pitchers if
- 46:49Speaker 2: you want to get close to the top. Whereas if
- 46:52Speaker 2: you go with the Cubs or the Cardinals, let's say,
- 46:55Speaker 2: and like they're the team that scores twelve runs, like yeah,
- 46:59Speaker 2: to win, and you're gonna need everything right, but like
- 47:02Speaker 2: there's just so much less competition as far as lineups
- 47:05Speaker 2: up there with you, you know what I mean.
- 47:07Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, because a lot of times when you're playing
- 47:10Speaker 1: those chalkier stacks, you're gonna get what three at least
- 47:14Speaker 1: three of the top five hitters and most people's stacks.
- 47:17Speaker 1: So now you're almost basically made it a two verse
- 47:19Speaker 1: two and you know, and then like maybe a one
- 47:21Speaker 1: off thing. So now you know if those guys go
- 47:24Speaker 1: off and you're like, oh, dude, I was, you know,
- 47:26Speaker 1: five hundred person tournament and I was in one fifty.
- 47:28Speaker 1: My guy did shit a homer and he was forty
- 47:30Speaker 1: two percent owned. And now I'm in one twenty eight.
- 47:33Speaker 1: You know, it's like, you know, you didn't go anywhere.
- 47:35Speaker 1: You only pass like a couple dudes. So yeah, but
- 47:38Speaker 1: if you have that guy Pca who hits at home
- 47:40Speaker 1: run and he's three percent owned tonight hits you a
- 47:42Speaker 1: three year und bomb, you're gonna go from one fifty
- 47:45Speaker 1: to maybe fortieth or thirtieth, you know. So that's uh
- 47:50Speaker 1: definitely to be said. I mean, like I said, I
- 47:53Speaker 1: guess when teams are teams I don't normally like to play.
- 47:56Speaker 1: I just I don't. I don't play it. There's another
- 47:59Speaker 1: team here I don't normally like to play. We sure
- 48:01Speaker 1: no knads likes to play the Brewers and San fran
- 48:05Speaker 1: I don't normally like to play teams out there in
- 48:06Speaker 1: San Francisco. We're sitting there looking at a game total
- 48:09Speaker 1: at seven and a half. We got two decent pitchers
- 48:12Speaker 1: with Henderson and Landon Rope out there. But I mean, yeah,
- 48:16Speaker 1: Brew Crew, we we like to play. The only time
- 48:19Speaker 1: I'll play any Brew Crew is if we have a
- 48:22Speaker 1: fly ball pitcher on the mound today, and that is
- 48:26Speaker 1: not the case with Landon rup He's got nineteen percent
- 48:29Speaker 1: flyball percentage. The left side twenty two percent, to the
- 48:31Speaker 1: right side fifty fifty two percent ground balls to both
- 48:35Speaker 1: sides of the plate. I wouldn't give a shit if
- 48:38Speaker 1: they're playing in Corsfield, I would not play any Brewers
- 48:41Speaker 1: just because of that. They do pound a lot of
- 48:43Speaker 1: balls in the ground. I am not interested in any
- 48:46Speaker 1: giants here here at home against Logan Henderson, who's been
- 48:51Speaker 1: pretty good. So for me, pretty easy pass and I
- 48:54Speaker 1: don't even really see any batters I want. What about you?
- 48:58Speaker 2: Well, I think I disagree with is If they were
- 49:00Speaker 2: playing Coursefield, I might have more interest than you. But
- 49:02Speaker 2: tonight I'm good. So yeah, I'm with you.
- 49:05Speaker 1: I like to give n Ad shit though, and he's
- 49:07Speaker 1: like he always likes some Brewers. I just kind of laugh,
- 49:10Speaker 1: but you know I always look tell him like, yeah,
- 49:12Speaker 1: I get it. You know, they're really good. They're number one.
- 49:14Speaker 1: You know, their playoff could win the whole thing this year.
- 49:18Speaker 1: But like DFS wise, like they just they nickel and
- 49:22Speaker 1: dime everything. They're not hitting multiple three run bombs, you know,
- 49:25Speaker 1: like they just they steal bags, they get base hits,
- 49:28Speaker 1: they do you know, they do a lot of the
- 49:30Speaker 1: other things. They what do they score like twenty runs
- 49:32Speaker 1: I think they had. They didn't even have a homer
- 49:34Speaker 1: something they score like.
- 49:35Speaker 2: Yeah, it's funny, Like their offense is really good, right,
- 49:38Speaker 2: and they score a ton of runs, but they have
- 49:42Speaker 2: There's only one team that has less combined home runs
- 49:45Speaker 2: than the Guardians in Cleveland. It's the Brewers, and Cleveland
- 49:50Speaker 2: doesn't have anyone with over eleven home runs. So like, yeah,
- 49:53Speaker 2: the Brewers don't hit home runs to your point.
- 49:56Speaker 1: Right, And so yeah, I mean we're playing defense. I
- 50:00Speaker 1: mean it's about homers and strikeouts in most occasions, you know.
- 50:03Speaker 1: I mean unless that guy goes off four for four
- 50:06Speaker 1: and got you know, two doubles in a stolen base,
- 50:08Speaker 1: you know, then yeah you get you know, you get
- 50:10Speaker 1: some numbers that blow off the charts. But I mean
- 50:12Speaker 1: it's about chasing homer. Can this guy hit me a
- 50:15Speaker 1: double dog tonight? Like that's a lot of times what
- 50:17Speaker 1: I'm thinking to myself looking at a dude with five
- 50:19Speaker 1: home runs on the year. Man, I'd rather play a
- 50:22Speaker 1: guy that you know's got fifteen homers and maybe he's
- 50:26Speaker 1: average is fifty point less. Like I'm chasing the homers,
- 50:29Speaker 1: you know, and especially if you get the fly ball
- 50:31Speaker 1: pitcher or a ground ball pitcher like that. That all
- 50:33Speaker 1: matters to me. So either way, we got one game left.
- 50:37Speaker 1: We got Dodgers here tonight at home against Seattle. I mean,
- 50:42Speaker 1: we got Lewis Castillo. We kind of like picking on
- 50:45Speaker 1: him a little bit, especially outside Seattle. Then we got Rubluski,
- 50:48Speaker 1: who we did like up at the top. I think
- 50:52Speaker 1: against Seattle, I don't really even want to play any
- 50:56Speaker 1: bats against him as far as maybe even some one
- 51:00Speaker 1: maybe if you wanted to go Julio, if you wanted
- 51:03Speaker 1: to go that route. I'm not really all that much
- 51:06Speaker 1: of a fan of it. I mean, Bruski does have
- 51:08Speaker 1: a higher fly ball percentage to the right side if
- 51:11Speaker 1: you wanted to look there, But Julio, I mean, he's
- 51:14Speaker 1: flyball percentage is decent thirty seven percent. So I think
- 51:17Speaker 1: he'd be the guy that I potentially look at if
- 51:20Speaker 1: you wanted to maybe get some lever Jeff Rubluski, if
- 51:22Speaker 1: you think he's gonna be higher owned. And then you've
- 51:24Speaker 1: got Castillo over here for for the Mariners, seventeen percent
- 51:29Speaker 1: k rate to the left side, twenty four to the
- 51:31Speaker 1: right side. He's been getting barreled up almost twelve percent
- 51:34Speaker 1: to the left side six percent, so he's obviously been
- 51:37Speaker 1: getting a hit twice as hard to the left side.
- 51:40Speaker 1: I mean, we got Otani, Freeman, Mookie or Munsi, Edmund
- 51:45Speaker 1: Tucker rushing. I mean, they're gonna throw some power at
- 51:48Speaker 1: him from the left side. I think that's why he's
- 51:50Speaker 1: picking up some steam. He does thirty three percent fly
- 51:54Speaker 1: ball rate. Yeah, I mean, I definitely like some Dodgers.
- 51:57Speaker 1: They're going to be expensive, so I mean, I think
- 52:01Speaker 1: I'd rather play the Dodgers in the Red Sox.
- 52:03Speaker 2: To be honest with you, I think the Dodgers are
- 52:06Speaker 2: way less owned as a full stack in the Red Sox.
- 52:07Speaker 2: There's so much more expensive. It's hard to get all
- 52:10Speaker 2: of them. So because of that, I'm with you. And
- 52:14Speaker 2: I'll say, like I like Robleski and I don't want
- 52:18Speaker 2: to stack against him, but I'm with you. I'm using
- 52:21Speaker 2: a one off or too. Anytime you get Seattle out
- 52:24Speaker 2: of Seattle, I'm interested in their lineup. Like it's not
- 52:27Speaker 2: a bad lineup, they're just play in such a bad
- 52:29Speaker 2: park for hitting, So Julio, I'm with you, probably my favorite.
- 52:34Speaker 2: And then the Dodger stack, Yeah, if you can make
- 52:36Speaker 2: it work, Like if you like cheaper pitching or a
- 52:40Speaker 2: really cheap secondary stack. I get it. It's just tough
- 52:43Speaker 2: for me, man, Like, oh, Tommy's close to seven k
- 52:46Speaker 2: A and he hasn't been great recently, so yeah, if
- 52:51Speaker 2: I have the salary, of course, I'm like, I'm not
- 52:54Speaker 2: not playing him because he hasn't been great recently. But
- 52:56Speaker 2: it's hard for me to want to just prioritize everything
- 52:59Speaker 2: to play him. And the rest of their lineup's expensive too,
- 53:03Speaker 2: so I like them a lot. I just don't know
- 53:05Speaker 2: if I'm gonna be able to make it work because
- 53:08Speaker 2: I like other stacks.
- 53:09Speaker 1: Also, yeah, the Dodgers. That thing with show came out
- 53:14Speaker 1: at thirty for thirty man, I started freaking out, thinking,
- 53:17Speaker 1: ah shit, man, I gotta dump my Otani cards before
- 53:20Speaker 1: they're worth like Ronder Franco cards, like oh shit, you know,
- 53:23Speaker 1: like here we go. But yeah, so but for me,
- 53:27Speaker 1: I mean, Dodgers are definitely one of my top stacks.
- 53:30Speaker 1: So I'll roll off my top stacks, give out some pitching.
- 53:34Speaker 1: I'll even throw a home run call, and then we'll
- 53:37Speaker 1: get your thoughts and then we'll we'll get out of
- 53:39Speaker 1: here and start getting ready for fun. We're going to
- 53:42Speaker 1: have tonight, our little Twitter party and Discord party when
- 53:45Speaker 1: we're all stacking up at the top of the tournaments tonight.
- 53:48Speaker 1: But as far as pitching goes, I think it's pretty easy.
- 53:52Speaker 1: As we said, Gavin Williams is definitely my favorite, and
- 53:56Speaker 1: then I think i'd go to Rubluski and then Henderson
- 53:59Speaker 1: and then and uh maybe throw in a combination different
- 54:02Speaker 1: guys like Todd Bradley, maybe Detmer's uh Cole if you
- 54:05Speaker 1: wanted to get up there, if you wanted to go
- 54:07Speaker 1: against the uh the White Sox, which I'm not a
- 54:09Speaker 1: fan of, fire Stacks Dodgers my favorite. Then I could
- 54:14Speaker 1: see the Red Sox and then I got that Cards
- 54:16Speaker 1: twin or Cubby's game, and then I'd say some twins
- 54:21Speaker 1: and then we'll go Padres after that, I think would
- 54:23Speaker 1: be would be my my favorite out Outside of that
- 54:26Speaker 1: and as far as a home run call today, I'm
- 54:29Speaker 1: going Gavin sheets of the Padres, I think that's, uh,
- 54:32Speaker 1: that's my favorite. I think them are some some lo
- 54:35Speaker 1: on gut, like we said, like some some cheaper beats
- 54:37Speaker 1: that you could probably throw in on some padres here
- 54:39Speaker 1: tonight that me you could pair up with some uh
- 54:41Speaker 1: even some Dodgers that have some potential for some power.
- 54:45Speaker 1: I don't mind that at all. So yeah, I uh,
- 54:49Speaker 1: I'll go that route like you said earlier, kind of
- 54:51Speaker 1: made it sound even a little more intriguing, like, Hey,
- 54:53Speaker 1: if they were in Colorado to night, what we know,
- 54:55Speaker 1: what what would they be looking at? They probably would
- 54:57Speaker 1: be the chalkiest team here tonight. So don't mind having
- 55:00Speaker 1: a couple pieces of that here today. But Matt, what
- 55:04Speaker 1: do you what do you got here for some pitching
- 55:05Speaker 1: and some stacks?
- 55:07Speaker 2: Yeah, so from my pitchers, I'm gonna go Gavin, I'll
- 55:11Speaker 2: go King, and I'll go Robleski for stacks, we'll go Padres.
- 55:19Speaker 2: I like them a lot here. Uh. I got thut
- 55:23Speaker 2: of the Red Sox in there, just because I like
- 55:25Speaker 2: them a lot. And we'll go Cardinals.
- 55:27Speaker 1: Uh.
- 55:28Speaker 2: And we're gonna go home run guy you mentioned earlier,
- 55:31Speaker 2: I like to call a lot Colin Ray giving up
- 55:34Speaker 2: a ton of fly balls to write he is Jordan
- 55:37Speaker 2: Walker gonna get his first since the Derby.
- 55:41Speaker 1: Yeah, he did get that Derby curse a little bit,
- 55:43Speaker 1: didn't He seems like that does happen quite a bit.
- 55:47Speaker 1: The dudes coming out.
- 55:48Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm like not sure if I want to
- 55:50Speaker 2: choose him because of that, but I thought why not?
- 55:53Speaker 1: No, I mean, hey, those are the little things like
- 55:55Speaker 1: you know what dude like too, like you know, the
- 55:59Speaker 1: freaking trade dead coming up, Like some of these guys
- 56:01Speaker 1: may not even be on certain teams coming up, or
- 56:03Speaker 1: they might be babying like a guy like scoopl They
- 56:06Speaker 1: might even let him throw, like if he does start
- 56:08Speaker 1: for the Tigers, they want to give him two or
- 56:09Speaker 1: three innings tomorrow, like they might not even let him
- 56:12Speaker 1: go there, like you don't even know, Like I mean,
- 56:14Speaker 1: there's so many factors that are coming in into play,
- 56:17Speaker 1: like coming in like when a trade deadline or the
- 56:19Speaker 1: forty man roster, just all that kind of stuff comes
- 56:21Speaker 1: into play. So yeah, definitely interesting time. But hey, appreciate
- 56:25Speaker 1: everybody joining us here today. I think, Matt, you're gonna
- 56:28Speaker 1: be back here with me tomorrow. Is that not correct?
- 56:31Speaker 2: I think it's title tomorrow.
