- 0:08Speaker 1: All systems gone clear the lift?
- 0:41Speaker 2: What is going on? Ship It Nation YouTube Station? We
- 0:45Speaker 2: are back with another edition of the MLB Show. It
- 0:48Speaker 2: is Friday night. The police are out in full effect
- 0:51Speaker 2: in Cleveland trying to arrest Donovan Mitchell, who just absolutely
- 0:55Speaker 2: fleeced the Cleveland Cavalator two hundred and seventy mel for
- 0:58Speaker 2: Donovan Mitchell. Come, oh man, anyway, Matt, what's going on?
- 1:03Speaker 2: I know that's big on your mind. How's your week
- 1:05Speaker 2: being going? What's going on?
- 1:08Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not gonna sit here and pretend like
- 1:10Speaker 3: I'm the biggest fan of the contract because it is
- 1:13Speaker 3: awful of how No, it's only awful because of how
- 1:17Speaker 3: the new NBA like cap is structured with the second Apron,
- 1:21Speaker 3: Like you're talking about perennial top ten to fifty play
- 1:25Speaker 3: in the league. I mean, if he's not making that money,
- 1:29Speaker 3: who should be making that money. The only reason it's
- 1:32Speaker 3: the only reason it's awful is because of the second
- 1:34Speaker 3: Apron stuff. And it's really hard to pay your guys
- 1:38Speaker 3: and win. So it's the NBA. You gotta pay your
- 1:42Speaker 3: your stars. I mean, Mitchell is not Lebron. He never
- 1:46Speaker 3: will be. He's never gonna be like a top five guy,
- 1:49Speaker 3: but he's a top ten to fifteen guy. He's now
- 1:54Speaker 3: side two extensions in Cleveland. A lot of guys don't
- 1:58Speaker 3: want to play in Cleveland. I mean, you know how
- 1:59Speaker 3: the works. And do I think this contract could get
- 2:04Speaker 3: ugly towards like the last year second last year? Yeah,
- 2:08Speaker 3: but man, that's what happens in the NBA, you know
- 2:10Speaker 3: what I mean, Like, you're damned if you do, damned
- 2:13Speaker 3: if you don't. Like you can't let guys walk like this.
- 2:16Speaker 3: But it's also really hard to build winners when you
- 2:18Speaker 3: pay guys like this.
- 2:19Speaker 2: So yeah, you gotta spend the money. I mean, yeah,
- 2:21Speaker 2: it's a lot of money. Hey, kudos to Spider and
- 2:24Speaker 2: he's making a killing. And congratulations to the Caps. Hopefully
- 2:26Speaker 2: they can make it to the second round next year.
- 2:28Speaker 2: Looking forward to that playoff run that they're gonna that
- 2:31Speaker 2: they're gonna.
- 2:32Speaker 3: You just got hate in your heart. You just gotta
- 2:34Speaker 3: hate in her.
- 2:35Speaker 2: I see today, I was saying congratulations, so.
- 2:40Speaker 3: We made the Eastern Conference finals. Last year we did
- 2:42Speaker 3: get sweat.
- 2:43Speaker 2: But yeah, in any event, what's going on, everybody? It's Friday.
- 2:49Speaker 2: I saw an Otani leadoff bomb this week. I was
- 2:51Speaker 2: telling I was telling mad about earlier living and dying
- 2:55Speaker 2: in La Sunny. La was awesome out there, Michael, what's
- 2:58Speaker 2: going on man, Philly fantoms in here? Bubbles? What's going on? Bubbles?
- 3:03Speaker 2: Good night to ship it? Amen to that? My god.
- 3:06Speaker 2: Jordan always always hammering on ham what's going on with that? Jordan?
- 3:10Speaker 2: Warren Tyler wins a lot? Taco, Todd, what's up my party? People?
- 3:16Speaker 2: How you doing? We got twelve games on the slate.
- 3:18Speaker 2: I think I think we got twelve games. We got millionaires,
- 3:22Speaker 2: billionaires that can't get out of Chicago to get to
- 3:25Speaker 2: New York, so we may go down, uh to eleven games.
- 3:28Speaker 2: But we're gonna talk about Sonny Gray, Nashville Tennessee legend
- 3:32Speaker 2: not making the All Star Game. But we do have
- 3:35Speaker 2: one all Star on the slate, that is Nick Martinez,
- 3:39Speaker 2: Nicholas Martinez for those Rays newly minted All Star show.
- 3:43Speaker 2: Hay oh gross, that is so gross.
- 3:48Speaker 3: We talked about this now that I remember, because it
- 3:52Speaker 3: was Martinez rus Ericaty Martina. I can't believe that I
- 3:56Speaker 3: had to do a triple take.
- 3:58Speaker 2: I had to do a triple take on the set
- 4:00Speaker 2: tventy two hundred dollars. Wonder it is a Jock Damns Friday.
- 4:04Speaker 2: If you have if you have hate in your heart,
- 4:07Speaker 2: let it out. My man, Newance knows what's up. Oh man,
- 4:11Speaker 2: it's gonna be a great Friday. Any Hey, this show
- 4:14Speaker 2: is getting off the rails. But uh, what do you
- 4:17Speaker 2: think about this slate? Matt, talk to me a little
- 4:18Speaker 2: bit about it before we get into a game by
- 4:20Speaker 2: game anything you want to add.
- 4:23Speaker 3: Yeah, I like states like this because we don't have course,
- 4:28Speaker 3: we don't have Sacramento.
- 4:30Speaker 2: Correct, yep, great American small part.
- 4:34Speaker 3: Yeah, and we've got the Dodgers on the slate. Like
- 4:36Speaker 3: there's just no like, you know, spot that you have
- 4:42Speaker 3: to roster or that you're fading at a ton of risk.
- 4:48Speaker 3: And I like states like that because you can pretty
- 4:49Speaker 3: much go to wherever you want. Like there's obviously better
- 4:53Speaker 3: spot than others. But it seems like a very sprouse
- 4:56Speaker 3: slate and I like that. Also from a pitching perspective,
- 4:59Speaker 3: there's good pitching out every price range, which is refreshing.
- 5:04Speaker 3: So I imagine it's going to be a high scoring slate,
- 5:07Speaker 3: but a lot of different ways to build.
- 5:10Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, you know, coming into the show, I
- 5:13Speaker 2: was ready to talk about how great of a pitching
- 5:15Speaker 2: slate it was gonna be. Now you've got Otani who's
- 5:18Speaker 2: no longer going to be on the bump. You got
- 5:19Speaker 2: Sonny Gray who is in limbo. Nolan McLain, I believe,
- 5:25Speaker 2: was on on the hill as well for the Mets.
- 5:28Speaker 2: Taking a consideration that the only yellow orange out there
- 5:32Speaker 2: is Chris Sale, that's wild. Actually, yeah, so it's a
- 5:39Speaker 2: great pitching slate. It could turn into be a kind
- 5:42Speaker 2: of a crap shoot though, as we break it all
- 5:45Speaker 2: down with, you know, roughly three hours to go, we're
- 5:48Speaker 2: gonna go game by game like we do each and
- 5:50Speaker 2: every Friday night. On this slate. I got the stone
- 5:53Speaker 2: pulled up. We got oh no, toburd in the lineup tight?
- 5:58Speaker 2: What's up with that? We got the Royals coming off there.
- 6:02Speaker 2: What set was it? Seventeen runs, Matt, We talked about
- 6:06Speaker 2: something like that on Tuesday against the Mets. We got
- 6:12Speaker 2: the Royals taking on the Orioles in campon yards where
- 6:15Speaker 2: right handed batters go to diab Brandon Young on the hill.
- 6:19Speaker 2: This this is the wee ender a vila guy who
- 6:21Speaker 2: gives up more runs than anybody. It feels like, talk
- 6:25Speaker 2: to me through this one. Matt Royals at Baltimore.
- 6:30Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a game with really good hitting conditions.
- 6:34Speaker 3: So I think two offenses that you can look at
- 6:38Speaker 3: on this slate. As I just mentioned, there aren't any
- 6:41Speaker 3: offenses that look like, you know, the clear top stack
- 6:45Speaker 3: on the board. But if you told me Baltimore or
- 6:48Speaker 3: Kansas City, we're your favorite texts and I couldn't argue it.
- 6:53Speaker 3: Two needyocre at bash right handers. Good hitting whether here
- 6:59Speaker 3: avilas been I don't know, very inconsistent in that some
- 7:04Speaker 3: starts have been very good, and then he's gotten shelled
- 7:07Speaker 3: in a couple of others, namely that Houston start where
- 7:09Speaker 3: he gave up a ton of runs in the first inning.
- 7:11Speaker 3: Alvarez at two bombs in the first inning or yeah,
- 7:16Speaker 3: he had six RBIs in that first thing. So that
- 7:19Speaker 3: was pretty tilting if you didn't have him that day,
- 7:22Speaker 3: which I did not, and so I remember it clearly. Yeah,
- 7:26Speaker 3: I mean a view is not good. Brandon Young's not good.
- 7:29Speaker 3: Casey we've seen explode recently. Baltimore has been underwhelming, but
- 7:34Speaker 3: they still have power and speed at the top of
- 7:36Speaker 3: their lineup. There's a couple offense though, Yeah, that's stings
- 7:43Speaker 3: tough to stay. I mean, we see that a bunch now.
- 7:45Speaker 3: The Athletics are dealing with that. We've seen that at
- 7:48Speaker 3: first base a bunch recently. So just gotta stack him
- 7:52Speaker 3: a little differently. Maybe that brings their ownership down. I
- 7:55Speaker 3: think if we're like putting these teams on tiers, both
- 7:59Speaker 3: of these teams would be on the top tier. A
- 8:02Speaker 3: lot of good offenses today. I think two top five
- 8:05Speaker 3: stacks on the board. Not necessarily my personal favorite, but
- 8:08Speaker 3: wouldn't fault you at all if they were your favorite.
- 8:11Speaker 2: If you had to pick one or the other. What
- 8:13Speaker 2: I mean, with the Royals being so hot, ain't getting
- 8:15Speaker 2: twenty seven outs? Which offense do you prefer?
- 8:17Speaker 3: It's tough, man. I think both of them look good. Uh,
- 8:22Speaker 3: probably the Royals on the road, I feel like they've
- 8:25Speaker 3: been I don't know, have they been better from a
- 8:27Speaker 3: fantasy perspective, probably not, but they're generally cheaper. I don't
- 8:32Speaker 3: have a strong take there either. I think they both
- 8:34Speaker 3: look good and we'll probably be similarly owned. Obviously WIT's
- 8:41Speaker 3: gonna carry a ton of ownership, but he's expensive. I
- 8:45Speaker 3: like both.
- 8:47Speaker 2: Yeah, they're both highly touted over here too. At Shipnation
- 8:51Speaker 2: dot Com uh top five stacks for both of them.
- 8:54Speaker 2: Royals at the ool is gonna come in highly owned.
- 8:56Speaker 2: You look at them projected very well, especially these Orioles
- 9:00Speaker 2: who are the top rank stack over here at the Nation.
- 9:03Speaker 2: And now how to do a double take. I got
- 9:05Speaker 2: TC logistics. I does look like my boy KGJ, but
- 9:09Speaker 2: it should be our guy Hunter Green making a second
- 9:12Speaker 2: start off the d L I L whatever you want
- 9:15Speaker 2: to call it these days. He got roughed up in
- 9:17Speaker 2: his first start. Now he gets to take on this
- 9:22Speaker 2: Chicago team. I actually like a little bit of Hunter
- 9:25Speaker 2: Green at eighty six hundred bucks, but taught me through
- 9:27Speaker 2: this game a little bit. You got Chicago going into
- 9:31Speaker 2: the Great American Small Park, another game where we're gonna
- 9:33Speaker 2: have tons of ownership in my opinion, just because there
- 9:36Speaker 2: aren't many other great spots in terms of parks. You
- 9:39Speaker 2: got Shotay Minaga on the heel taking on Hunter Green
- 9:42Speaker 2: Cubs at the Reds. Yeah.
- 9:46Speaker 3: I think both offenses definitely in play here over the pitching.
- 9:48Speaker 3: I'm a Hunter Green fan in general. I'm a big
- 9:52Speaker 3: believer in a talent making a second start. I don't
- 9:57Speaker 3: think he's gonna play either. I think Green and the
- 10:00Speaker 3: Hubs are a class that you can play either side.
- 10:02Speaker 3: Green always to strike out upside, and he showed it
- 10:05Speaker 3: in his first start. He also showed up propensity to
- 10:09Speaker 3: get hit hard, and Barrel came up power Orioles touched
- 10:12Speaker 3: him up. Cubs we know have power and speed. The
- 10:17Speaker 3: best ballpark for hitting here on this slate is Cincinnati.
- 10:20Speaker 3: So yeah, Green is in playing tournaments, especially as you
- 10:26Speaker 3: mentioned go down effect that we're going to potentially lose
- 10:30Speaker 3: starters here. It's Green even more in play. But on
- 10:34Speaker 3: the same token, the Cubs definitely in playing tournaments with
- 10:38Speaker 3: big power, speed, nice ballpark, et cetera. Not exactly sure
- 10:42Speaker 3: how I feel about the Reds. I don't really want
- 10:45Speaker 3: to play Showda here, and this is not a ballpark
- 10:49Speaker 3: for him. I mean, he's a guy that we like
- 10:51Speaker 3: in Realy, the fly balls, et cetera. The Reds are
- 10:56Speaker 3: good against left eas I don't like them against righties,
- 10:59Speaker 3: but good against left eas. Yeah, I guess I could
- 11:03Speaker 3: see stacking the Reds here. I don't know if I
- 11:07Speaker 3: liked as much as like the Orioles or Royals, but
- 11:10Speaker 3: they'll be our own. We just saw them explode a
- 11:13Speaker 3: couple of days ago. Ellie's been a lot better from
- 11:15Speaker 3: the left side this year or against left Haannan Pishing,
- 11:18Speaker 3: I should say, yeah, I like the rest here. I
- 11:21Speaker 3: think this is a game that could see offense just
- 11:23Speaker 3: because of the ballpark. You gotta have interest tonight.
- 11:26Speaker 2: Which which which game? Do you think it's more ownership?
- 11:30Speaker 2: This game or the previous game?
- 11:32Speaker 3: Previous game? Easily in my opinion, Yeah, all right, maybe
- 11:41Speaker 3: it's similar. Maybe it's similar, but I don't think it's
- 11:44Speaker 3: gonna be a Cubs Reds game personally. Maybe I'm off better.
- 11:47Speaker 3: You think that's wrong.
- 11:50Speaker 2: Uh, I don't know, because I think people do have
- 11:54Speaker 2: respect for Hunny Green, right. I think it depends on
- 11:56Speaker 2: what happens to these pitchers too. I don't think you're
- 11:59Speaker 2: playing either pitcher in that first game right where you
- 12:03Speaker 2: could potentially be playing one. Now you don't think you
- 12:06Speaker 2: played both, but you definitely could play Green for a
- 12:08Speaker 2: strike out upside or Managa if you wanted a cheap guy.
- 12:12Speaker 2: So I think that lowers the ownership a little bit
- 12:15Speaker 2: on these bats. You don't you don't agree.
- 12:19Speaker 3: I do agree. That's why I think the first game
- 12:21Speaker 3: gets more ownership personally, Yeah, probably.
- 12:22Speaker 2: Right, Lane Thomas you're a big fan of Lane Thomas.
- 12:25Speaker 2: He has juice ghost, so he's seeing the ball well
- 12:29Speaker 2: right now. Well, a month ago he was the worst
- 12:32Speaker 2: player in the MLB according to some people.
- 12:35Speaker 3: Who according to you, I mean still is according to you.
- 12:43Speaker 3: But true, I haven't even.
- 12:47Speaker 2: Looked so bad about that man.
- 12:50Speaker 3: That I haven't even looked at his game log. But
- 12:52Speaker 3: I just brought it up. And I mean, you look
- 12:54Speaker 3: at his last look at his last five games fourteen, five,
- 12:58Speaker 3: twenty seven, nineteen thirteen, and he was decent before that,
- 13:01Speaker 3: so like he's cheap. Yeah, I'm not looking too one off.
- 13:06Speaker 3: Lane Thomas been in a royal stack. I mean, surely
- 13:08Speaker 3: play Lane Thomas right.
- 13:09Speaker 2: Now, Play Lane Thomas, righty, righty, Hey, Camden Yards. Righty's
- 13:14Speaker 2: going to die in Camden Yards.
- 13:15Speaker 3: So I'm gonna stay.
- 13:16Speaker 2: Don't play Lane Thomas to night because I'm not playing
- 13:18Speaker 2: any righties, and I should say that I don't like
- 13:20Speaker 2: playing righties in Camden Yards in any event, moving on
- 13:22Speaker 2: to the next game, we got the Cleveland Guardians, Matt's
- 13:25Speaker 2: team going into Miami to take on Sandy Out and Tara,
- 13:28Speaker 2: who will not be traded eight thousand dollars on dk
- 13:31Speaker 2: is a great price for Sandy loved this ballpark. Parker
- 13:34Speaker 2: Messick another guy that potentially is just gonna get overlooked
- 13:38Speaker 2: based on the pitchers that we currently have now. I
- 13:41Speaker 2: think that could change if if we lose some guys
- 13:44Speaker 2: that Parker was super chalk Elder in the week, or
- 13:46Speaker 2: I think was earlier in the week, might have been
- 13:48Speaker 2: last week. But now he gets to go to this
- 13:50Speaker 2: Martin's team who's talking about playing in October. But he
- 13:54Speaker 2: gets a huge ballpark up grade. I really like Parker
- 13:56Speaker 2: Messick tonight. I know you're normally big on Parker Messick.
- 13:59Speaker 2: Talk to me about this game. Guardians at the Marlins.
- 14:03Speaker 3: Yeah, Messi the dog always in play for me. Price
- 14:05Speaker 3: tag is up there, but as it should be. I
- 14:07Speaker 3: don't love picking on the Marlins, so I don't know
- 14:09Speaker 3: if I'm gonna play Messi heater, but I'm not gonna
- 14:11Speaker 3: pick on him either. So this is a pretty clear
- 14:15Speaker 3: not gonna play Messick probably, but definitely not gonna stack Marlins.
- 14:19Speaker 3: The more pictures we lose, the more interested I am
- 14:21Speaker 3: in Messick because talent alone, I like him a lot,
- 14:25Speaker 3: so I don't think he's out of play. I'm just
- 14:28Speaker 3: not excited about it. In this spot, the Marlins have
- 14:31Speaker 3: been really good, so hard to want to use pictures
- 14:34Speaker 3: against them right now. I'm not saying you can't, but
- 14:37Speaker 3: hard to want to go out of your way to
- 14:38Speaker 3: do so. Sandy and the Guardians. Yeah, it's tough for me, man,
- 14:43Speaker 3: because Sandy's a guy I play and I like him
- 14:46Speaker 3: here he's too cheap. The Guardians lineup stinks, but I've
- 14:48Speaker 3: also played a bunch of Guardians recently, and you know,
- 14:52Speaker 3: Sandy isn't like an elite DFS guy's coming off a
- 14:55Speaker 3: really good start, and I like the ballpark ultimately, Like,
- 15:03Speaker 3: I'm gonna play Sandy here. He's just too cheap, and
- 15:05Speaker 3: the matchup's good. The ballpark's good. You don't have to
- 15:07Speaker 3: worry about any of the other stuff we talked about.
- 15:10Speaker 3: I don't feel as great about it, but I'm still
- 15:13Speaker 3: gonna play here. I'm kind of talking this out as
- 15:15Speaker 3: we go, as you can see. So, yeah, how do
- 15:18Speaker 3: you feel about Sandy?
- 15:20Speaker 2: Uh? Yeah, I think you got He's got to be
- 15:22Speaker 2: in play at eight k This Guardian's line up with
- 15:25Speaker 2: no uh no Jose in it, water down Rich Homby
- 15:29Speaker 2: Kwan down there in the nine hole, Uh, yeah, definitely
- 15:33Speaker 2: Sandy Huh.
- 15:34Speaker 3: He's awful and pop. Do you know who's leading the
- 15:38Speaker 3: leading Cleveland and batting average this year like over their regulars.
- 15:42Speaker 3: This is so sad.
- 15:44Speaker 2: I hope it's not Reece Hoskins.
- 15:47Speaker 3: No, it's not. It's even worse. But Hoskins is awful.
- 15:52Speaker 2: I'm just looking at the lineup. I mean, hopefully not
- 15:54Speaker 2: Austin Hedges. I don't I don't know.
- 15:58Speaker 3: Austin Hedges is really yeah, like and coming to this year,
- 16:03Speaker 3: he might have been the worst hit He was the
- 16:04Speaker 3: worst hitter in baseball over the past like five years.
- 16:07Speaker 2: I mean, he's pretty bad.
- 16:09Speaker 3: He's so bad.
- 16:12Speaker 2: Yeah, they need they need Hose back and they need
- 16:15Speaker 2: the back past. I love parking Parker Messic here. I'm
- 16:19Speaker 2: I get it that the Marlins are playing better this year.
- 16:22Speaker 2: But man, Parker Messik, you said I think you said
- 16:25Speaker 2: it right out the gate. He's a dog. I love
- 16:27Speaker 2: this ballpark upgrade for him. And to be honest with you,
- 16:30Speaker 2: you know, Otto Lopez and Xavier Edwards, they don't scare me.
- 16:33Speaker 2: Kyle Stowers, I get to I get the lefty lefty,
- 16:36Speaker 2: you know, advantage there. I think there's a lot of
- 16:38Speaker 2: strikeouts in this line up for the for the Marlins.
- 16:41Speaker 2: I hope some of these games don't rain out because
- 16:43Speaker 2: I think Parker Messik only ninety two hundred bucks through
- 16:46Speaker 2: one hundred pitches last game. I'm all, I'm all over
- 16:48Speaker 2: Parker Messick tonight.
- 16:50Speaker 3: I respect it. I play him a lot. Uh maybe
- 16:53Speaker 3: I'll get to a little bit of him tonight, just
- 16:55Speaker 3: for you. All right, thank you.
- 16:57Speaker 2: Moving into the next game, we got the Mariners taking
- 16:59Speaker 2: on the All Star Nick the Stick, Nick Martinez and
- 17:02Speaker 2: Luis Castillo two Friday nights ago. Matt Luis was very
- 17:06Speaker 2: hurtful to me, and you against your guardians. Now goes
- 17:09Speaker 2: back on the road in Tampa Bay. Talk to me
- 17:12Speaker 2: about this game, Mariners at the Rays, You're going into
- 17:15Speaker 2: one of these pitchers? Are you going with either one
- 17:17Speaker 2: of these stacks?
- 17:19Speaker 3: I don't think so. I think this is a pretty
- 17:20Speaker 3: clear cross off for me. My favorite thing in this game,
- 17:23Speaker 3: I guess it would be the Seattle Bats, But I
- 17:27Speaker 3: like picking on Castillo on the road. The problem is
- 17:30Speaker 3: still not a good ballpark for a Hitden Like, you
- 17:32Speaker 3: get him out of Seattle, so you like it better
- 17:34Speaker 3: than in Seattle. But Tampa on this slate not excited
- 17:37Speaker 3: about it. And the guys you want to play on
- 17:40Speaker 3: Tampa are righties and you want lefties against Castillo, So yeah,
- 17:45Speaker 3: Castillo is not good anymore. You could play Cameron Aro
- 17:48Speaker 3: Yondi Diaz. I mean, I like Aronda a lot, but
- 17:52Speaker 3: you're paying for it, so yeah, that's a big Camon Arrow.
- 17:59Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 18:00Speaker 3: Yeah, he's expensive. He should be.
- 18:02Speaker 2: He's Yeah, he's right for sure.
- 18:05Speaker 3: But like you know, you got to allocate a lot
- 18:06Speaker 3: of funds to get there, and you're obviously playing him
- 18:08Speaker 3: over other studs on this slate, which I probably won't do.
- 18:12Speaker 3: But he is really good and will be low owned
- 18:15Speaker 3: the Seattle side. I'm not a believer, Nick Martinez. I
- 18:19Speaker 3: don't love the Seattle line up right now though, So
- 18:24Speaker 3: you know, I like Seattle probably more than the field,
- 18:29Speaker 3: but I don't think I'll play them, is the best
- 18:30Speaker 3: way I can put it.
- 18:35Speaker 2: Yeah, man, that's a pretty bad line up.
- 18:40Speaker 3: Yeah it's pretty good right now.
- 18:44Speaker 2: It's cheap. Uh. Yeah, I think I like the Rays
- 18:50Speaker 2: a little bit more than you. Man. Luis Castilla is
- 18:54Speaker 2: not a good picture anymore. I don't love paying six
- 18:57Speaker 2: k for Junior, but I mean Sedi Mullins back and
- 18:59Speaker 2: clean up at thirty four hundred like that. Chandler Simpson
- 19:02Speaker 2: thirty eight hundred like that as well. Yeah, I mean, yeah,
- 19:09Speaker 2: I don't He'll probably double down. But I would say
- 19:12Speaker 2: two through nine are in play for me for the Rais.
- 19:15Speaker 2: I'd probably skip on Yandy fifty one too rich for
- 19:17Speaker 2: my blood. But man, I'm picking on Luise. I got
- 19:21Speaker 2: the raise top five stack.
- 19:25Speaker 3: I get it. I mean, it's always anytime you can
- 19:27Speaker 3: pick on Castillo. It's not that I don't like them.
- 19:29Speaker 3: I just think there's other stacks I like more.
- 19:31Speaker 2: Yeah, moving on to the next game. We're going to
- 19:33Speaker 2: talk about it, even though it could potentially get postponed.
- 19:35Speaker 2: If you've seen any news in the last twenty eight minutes,
- 19:38Speaker 2: put it in the chat. But we got the Red
- 19:39Speaker 2: Sox flying from the Windy City over to New York.
- 19:44Speaker 2: I like both of these pitchers tonight, Sonny Gray and
- 19:47Speaker 2: Nolan McLain taking on the Red Sox. I saw where
- 19:51Speaker 2: Raphaela was an All Star replacement as well, which is
- 19:53Speaker 2: just weird to me taking on the Mets. Juan Soto
- 19:57Speaker 2: big crushing the ball all season long, Babe, love for
- 20:00Speaker 2: anybody in this game. Red Sox at the Mets.
- 20:04Speaker 3: I like Rafaela a lot. What's weird to you about that?
- 20:06Speaker 3: Just curious?
- 20:08Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know. He's just not a household name,
- 20:11Speaker 2: that's true. I guess maybe his numbers, you know, maybe
- 20:14Speaker 2: his numbers. He deserves to be an All Star. But
- 20:17Speaker 2: when that guy's an All Star, I don't know. And
- 20:19Speaker 2: the Red Sox aren't any good, so that's fair.
- 20:22Speaker 3: He's a really good defender too, though, So I don't know.
- 20:25Speaker 3: I like him personally, just a guy I like to
- 20:27Speaker 3: watch randomly. But yeah, as far as this game goes,
- 20:30Speaker 3: it's about the pitching. If we get to this game,
- 20:33Speaker 3: it's definitely good to go. I think both pictures in
- 20:35Speaker 3: this game are wildly in play. Two of the better
- 20:39Speaker 3: pitchers on the slate. McClain has been more inconsistent than
- 20:43Speaker 3: I thought he would be this season, but still has
- 20:45Speaker 3: strike out upside. Boston very underwhelming this year. You get
- 20:51Speaker 3: a good part for pitching. Yeah, I like, if I'm
- 20:56Speaker 3: playing one lineup, I don't think I'm playing either of
- 20:58Speaker 3: these pictures because there are other guys I like more
- 21:00Speaker 3: like presuming we get every picture on this slate available,
- 21:03Speaker 3: but I could see why anyone would have both of
- 21:07Speaker 3: them in their lineup, you know, in any one lineup.
- 21:09Speaker 3: So I don't know if I like these guys as
- 21:11Speaker 3: much as the field, but I'm certainly not stacking against them.
- 21:15Speaker 2: What about what about a soda one off? Would you
- 21:17Speaker 2: be okay with that?
- 21:19Speaker 3: Always he's a monster and he steals bases too, so
- 21:22Speaker 3: always in play.
- 21:24Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think you said it, but if you
- 21:27Speaker 2: had to choose between one of those pictures, which picture
- 21:30Speaker 2: do you like better? Man?
- 21:34Speaker 3: Probably take the Savings in sunny gray?
- 21:38Speaker 2: Yeah, so was a beast green yellow? I'm assuming, I'm
- 21:43Speaker 2: assuming they're in air then. I don't think there was
- 21:45Speaker 2: bad weather there. I think it was more of a
- 21:47Speaker 2: transportation thing. But let us know, Sean. If it was
- 21:49Speaker 2: more of a transportation thing, they may be up in
- 21:52Speaker 2: the air for all I know. I haven't checked it
- 21:53Speaker 2: since we've been on the show. Excellent stuff there, Matt,
- 21:56Speaker 2: do us a favor? Hit that like hit that subscribe
- 21:59Speaker 2: button helps us out a ton over here. We're gonna
- 22:01Speaker 2: go into our next game where we get to talk
- 22:02Speaker 2: about Aaron Savalle, former Brewer, Great Newes, love sim Samari
- 22:06Speaker 2: and Savale taking on Sean Burke. I see as Sean
- 22:09Speaker 2: Burke fan in the crowd seventy four hundred bucks. Nick
- 22:14Speaker 2: Nick Kurtz left the game early the other night, but
- 22:17Speaker 2: it looks to be in the projected lineup tonight taking
- 22:20Speaker 2: on this White Sox team. Who hey, they get Murakami
- 22:22Speaker 2: back tonight. A lot of strikeouts but also a lot
- 22:25Speaker 2: of dongs as well. Talk to me about this game.
- 22:28Speaker 2: He's gonna be a big piece adding back into that lineup.
- 22:31Speaker 2: Athletics at the surging White Sox.
- 22:36Speaker 3: Yeah, this game is a three pronger for me. Three
- 22:39Speaker 3: sides wildly in play in tournaments. Yeah. So the White
- 22:45Speaker 3: Sox got me in play here against Savali Murakami back,
- 22:48Speaker 3: that's exciting. We know he's got massive power. Yeah. The
- 22:52Speaker 3: White Socks just faced a bunch of lefties and they're
- 22:55Speaker 3: bad against lefties, and now they're facing hero Savali. They're
- 22:58Speaker 3: really good against right handed pitching, Sovali is not a
- 23:00Speaker 3: good righty. The writing's on the wall here for a
- 23:03Speaker 3: big day from the White Sox. Not gonna lie. And
- 23:06Speaker 3: then the other two sides are both Burke and the Athletics.
- 23:10Speaker 3: Burke has been good, no doubt about it. At his
- 23:14Speaker 3: price tag on this slate against the weak Athletics lineup.
- 23:17Speaker 3: Kurts will be in there, he played yesterday. Ben Galiers
- 23:20Speaker 3: should be in there. Gelloff got hurt yesterday and he'll
- 23:23Speaker 3: probably be out. Soderstrom's back. The lineup gets pretty up.
- 23:30Speaker 3: The lineup, would you say it's a.
- 23:32Speaker 2: Pretty good top of the line up? Remember last Friday
- 23:34Speaker 2: night how bad it was. But now they get their
- 23:37Speaker 2: dudes back, and it's like Jack Wilson may be in
- 23:39Speaker 2: there as well.
- 23:40Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm a little bit partial because last year the
- 23:43Speaker 3: ad has won me a slate in Chicago against the
- 23:45Speaker 3: White Sox, so I feel like I have to like
- 23:47Speaker 3: them here and in tournaments they got upside, they got power.
- 23:51Speaker 3: But the same time, or the flip side, is that
- 23:55Speaker 3: Burke has been good, he's cheap, and this Athletics line up,
- 23:58Speaker 3: I mean, franbur Volla has carved them up yesterday. I
- 24:00Speaker 3: know it's a lefty, but they have not been good recently.
- 24:02Speaker 3: The Athletics. You get them out of Sacramento. No reason
- 24:05Speaker 3: why Burke is not at least in play here. So
- 24:08Speaker 3: I like the White Sox and I like both sides
- 24:10Speaker 3: of the A's and Burke.
- 24:13Speaker 2: What are the White Sox rank for you?
- 24:15Speaker 3: Higher than I thought they would coming into this show. Honestly,
- 24:20Speaker 3: I like the fact, like they're not good against left
- 24:23Speaker 3: handed pitching, and the Red Sox just threw three lefties
- 24:26Speaker 3: against them totally. And Bennett, who have been really good,
- 24:29Speaker 3: and then Sandoval, who has always had good stuff. They
- 24:34Speaker 3: faced this freaking journeyman. Yeah, so Valley is not good
- 24:40Speaker 3: and this bad Oakland bullpen is Lopez open is earlier,
- 24:46Speaker 3: I saw that Lopez was opening for the A's. Is
- 24:48Speaker 3: that wrong? Yeah, he is opening for the A's. He's
- 24:53Speaker 3: a lefty, so I don't love that. But still, I
- 24:56Speaker 3: mean he's not like a particularly great lefty. I like
- 25:00Speaker 3: the White Sox here man, like Jacob I put that,
- 25:03Speaker 3: I'm on the same tier. Yeah, I put them on
- 25:06Speaker 3: the same tier as like Baltimore, Kansas City, and honestly,
- 25:09Speaker 3: at ownership, they're my favorite snack we've talked about so far.
- 25:13Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you gotta like him. And a note, she's
- 25:17Speaker 2: leading off Murakami back forty hundred. That's palatable. Miguel Vargas
- 25:20Speaker 2: have it.
- 25:20Speaker 3: Heck, year, he's really cheap for him, man, Like Murakamie
- 25:24Speaker 3: was like six k a ton before he got hurt.
- 25:28Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, excellent stuff there. I think, uh, I think
- 25:31Speaker 2: you've talked to me into some white Sox as well.
- 25:33Speaker 2: Moving on to the next game. We got our guy,
- 25:36Speaker 2: Hebrew cheat in the house. What's going on, Hebrew Cheetah Astros?
- 25:39Speaker 2: Hunter Brown? I love me some Hunter Brown in general
- 25:42Speaker 2: taking on this Rangers team. It's the lone Star State Battle.
- 25:45Speaker 2: We got Jack Jams. It's a jock Jam Friday Night.
- 25:48Speaker 2: They're dirt cheap over there. Thirty one hundred dollars. Run
- 25:51Speaker 2: to your nearest teller, tell them you want Jack Jams
- 25:54Speaker 2: at thirty one hundred bucks. Hunter Brown, cal Quantrill, you
- 26:00Speaker 2: me give me some Astros versus Rangers.
- 26:02Speaker 3: Break it all down for me, Matt, Yeah, I love
- 26:05Speaker 3: the Astros here. Quantrell is one of these guys I
- 26:07Speaker 3: love picking on man. He's one of these ultimate gas
- 26:10Speaker 3: cans in my opinion, that you just want to go
- 26:11Speaker 3: up against. This is a guy with massive reverse splits
- 26:15Speaker 3: coming into this year. Also, so I like the right E's,
- 26:18Speaker 3: I like the lefties. Probably have Jeremy Penia back tonight.
- 26:23Speaker 3: What's not to like about Houston here? I liked him
- 26:25Speaker 3: quite a bit, man. Quantrill stinks say less.
- 26:34Speaker 2: Your first place, your first place Texas Rangers. I apologize
- 26:39Speaker 2: forty seven and forty six. I just had to look
- 26:40Speaker 2: up the record. They are in first place, middle of summer.
- 26:43Speaker 2: They got a chance. They got a chance. Man, That's
- 26:45Speaker 2: all you can ask. And sorry I missed it. You
- 26:48Speaker 2: in on Hunter Brown?
- 26:50Speaker 3: Can't? Can't be in on Hun Brown right now? That
- 26:52Speaker 3: price tag the Rangers. I I can't, no, not with
- 26:57Speaker 3: all the pitching I like on A Brown in general,
- 26:59Speaker 3: I mean, massive of his stuff, but he's not in
- 27:02Speaker 3: great for him, he hasn't been since he came back
- 27:04Speaker 3: this year. The Rangers lineup has been PASKI you're paying
- 27:09Speaker 3: for it. Like in tournaments, Yeah, he's obviously in play,
- 27:13Speaker 3: Like if I'm playing one fifties, certainly in the pool
- 27:15Speaker 3: because of his upside at any given start. But like
- 27:18Speaker 3: if I'm playing one lineup, no way am I playing
- 27:20Speaker 3: under Brown right now at time to three?
- 27:21Speaker 2: Yeah? I agree with you. There one lineup, even three lineups,
- 27:25Speaker 2: you'll probably not get to him at ten k not
- 27:27Speaker 2: with the other guys around him. Excellent stuff right there.
- 27:30Speaker 2: Next up is the Angels taking on the Twins. Mike
- 27:33Speaker 2: Trout hit a bomb. I think that was on Tuesday
- 27:36Speaker 2: and its first night back now taking on this Twins
- 27:39Speaker 2: team and Zebbie Matthews that does have some strikeout upside
- 27:42Speaker 2: a little bit. This Angels team, we've picked on them
- 27:44Speaker 2: all season long when we get a good strikeout pitcher.
- 27:47Speaker 2: Zebbie is seventy eight hundred bucks, which is kind of
- 27:49Speaker 2: expensive in my opinion. Grayson Rodriguez at sixty nine hundred
- 27:54Speaker 2: over on DK and FanDuel, talk to me about this game,
- 27:57Speaker 2: any love for any of these Angels or any of
- 27:59Speaker 2: these Twins, who I might add still know Byron Buxton
- 28:03Speaker 2: on the ten day, I l.
- 28:06Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm a little bit torn on this game. I'm
- 28:08Speaker 3: not sure exactly how to feel. Grayson Rodriguez, h he
- 28:15Speaker 3: was not very good in his limited accident after he
- 28:17Speaker 3: came back, and now he's making his first start back.
- 28:19Speaker 3: The Twins offense has been really good over the past month,
- 28:25Speaker 3: So the Twins are definitely in play here. I mean,
- 28:30Speaker 3: they're definitely on that. I mean, why wouldn't they be
- 28:33Speaker 3: a top tier offense tonight with how good they've been.
- 28:35Speaker 3: Grayson Rodriguez a bad bullpen and then the Angels. Yeah,
- 28:42Speaker 3: but that's okay. I mean, you're picking on the spot
- 28:45Speaker 3: against Rodriguez and Buckston's been out for a little bit now,
- 28:48Speaker 3: a few games at least, like they can still get
- 28:50Speaker 3: it done against right handed pitching weak right handed pitching.
- 28:53Speaker 3: At that. I don't love them because I still respect
- 28:56Speaker 3: Racon Rodriguez's stuff, but man, that's kind of going on
- 29:00Speaker 3: on who Gray Soon Rodriguez was not necessarily who he is,
- 29:05Speaker 3: so just in that sense, yeah, Minnesota in play for
- 29:08Speaker 3: their upside, I don't know. Uh as far as Zebby
- 29:14Speaker 3: and the Angels go another one, I see both sides
- 29:16Speaker 3: of it. Zebbi is not very good. We know how
- 29:19Speaker 3: the Angels are against right net to pitching though, so yeah,
- 29:23Speaker 3: they just got to the Rangers staff a little bit
- 29:26Speaker 3: more than we thought they would. Even Evaldi yesterday, who
- 29:29Speaker 3: struck out ten guys, the Angels got to him late.
- 29:33Speaker 3: I don't feel that strongly about Zebbi or the Angels,
- 29:37Speaker 3: but I think both of them are definitely in play
- 29:38Speaker 3: in tournaments. Very similar to me towards the A's and Burke.
- 29:44Speaker 3: But I think Burke is a you know, better play
- 29:47Speaker 3: than Zebbi. Uh it's it is really similar. Yeah, it
- 29:52Speaker 3: is another three pronger. I mean it is really similar
- 29:54Speaker 3: to that A's game.
- 29:58Speaker 2: The uh oh Josh Bell three three k. That's that's
- 30:03Speaker 2: a pretty good price for him. I think he gets
- 30:05Speaker 2: some ownership at that at that cost. Royce Lewis thirty
- 30:08Speaker 2: six hundred bucks. Don't hate that. And if you talked
- 30:10Speaker 2: me into a twins uh stack, I like four, five
- 30:14Speaker 2: and six. Are you? Are you a Brooks leaguey or no?
- 30:18Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 30:19Speaker 2: I like Brooks Lee got it too, all right, I'm
- 30:27Speaker 2: just looking at something. Moving on to the next game.
- 30:30Speaker 2: We got a couple of games left on the slate.
- 30:32Speaker 2: The next one up on the slate is the Braves
- 30:34Speaker 2: at the Cardinals. This is one that is orange yellow,
- 30:37Speaker 2: but it is Chris Sale taking on the Cardinals and
- 30:42Speaker 2: the new nine figure man, JJ Weatherholt signing one hundred
- 30:46Speaker 2: and twelve million dollar contract. Congratulations to JJ and his
- 30:50Speaker 2: loved ones. Taking on your boy, Kyle Leahy, who you've
- 30:53Speaker 2: picked on all season. I feel like, talk to me
- 30:55Speaker 2: about this game, assuming it plays any I know you
- 30:57Speaker 2: have love for Chris Sale, but where did your rank
- 30:59Speaker 2: in your rankings? And then the Braves offense versus Lee Hee,
- 31:03Speaker 2: and then any one of us for the Cardinals that
- 31:05Speaker 2: you think you might be want to pick on.
- 31:08Speaker 3: So definitely know the Cardinals. Definitely know to le He
- 31:11Speaker 3: definitely in on Atlanta and definitely in on Sale. I mean,
- 31:14Speaker 3: Sale is probably my favorite pitcher on the Slate Cardinals lineup.
- 31:17Speaker 3: You are just gonna get I know the lineup's already out.
- 31:21Speaker 3: They got lefties in there. I'll always trust Sale. Yeah,
- 31:27Speaker 3: I mean they loaded up with righty's, but not good righties.
- 31:29Speaker 3: So I like sail a lot here. I think you
- 31:31Speaker 3: can pretty easily get to him. Now. You don't have
- 31:33Speaker 3: to fight off Otani either. I like sail a lot
- 31:36Speaker 3: in the Braves. We know how good this offense is.
- 31:41Speaker 3: They've already started July a lot better than they were
- 31:43Speaker 3: in June. Lee he is not good. Braves are our
- 31:47Speaker 3: top tier offense.
- 31:47Speaker 2: For me, who are your top braves that you know
- 31:52Speaker 2: must haves in your stack? Give me two must haves
- 31:54Speaker 2: out of the Brave stack.
- 31:57Speaker 3: I feel like I gotta be Olsen right now. He's
- 32:00Speaker 3: you know, tons of power. I'll say the three are Harris,
- 32:06Speaker 3: Olsen and Baldwin.
- 32:10Speaker 2: Harris, Olson and Baldwin Harris back up to the leadoff
- 32:13Speaker 2: spot tonight. You gotta love that. Make sure you're taking
- 32:16Speaker 2: take a note of that weather as well. With Chris
- 32:19Speaker 2: Saale in a great spot tonight, especially the highest priced
- 32:24Speaker 2: pitcher tonight with no show. Hey on the heel. Moving
- 32:28Speaker 2: on to the next game. Blue Jays at the Padres
- 32:32Speaker 2: Shane Bieber the Beabs taking on j C JP Sears.
- 32:36Speaker 2: I hate picking on this ballpark, but you got two
- 32:39Speaker 2: pictures who I love picking on, So I'm conflicted. Matt
- 32:42Speaker 2: needs you to break the tie talk to me through
- 32:44Speaker 2: this one. Blue Jays at San Diego.
- 32:48Speaker 3: So yeah, I like offense here for sure. I'm not
- 32:51Speaker 3: using either picture. Sears has been pretty good for San Diego,
- 32:55Speaker 3: and he's a guy that really really bad benefits from
- 33:00Speaker 3: this ballpark, major fly ball guy. Like given that, I
- 33:08Speaker 3: don't know how much I want to stack against Sears,
- 33:11Speaker 3: but he is not very good still, and Toronto is
- 33:14Speaker 3: super cheap with guys with a bunch of righties with power. Okamoto,
- 33:19Speaker 3: Vlad not having a good year, but Vlad Springer like
- 33:23Speaker 3: thirty three hundred, Kirk.
- 33:28Speaker 2: Like.
- 33:29Speaker 3: I like the Blue Jays here individually, and I guess
- 33:32Speaker 3: because I like all those guys individually, you could stack
- 33:35Speaker 3: against them. But man, I just don't know in this
- 33:38Speaker 3: park if they're gonna win this slate that said I
- 33:41Speaker 3: do like them individually as mini stacks, so you could
- 33:44Speaker 3: take it a step farther in full stacks, full stack them,
- 33:47Speaker 3: and then on the flip side, I think I like
- 33:50Speaker 3: San Diego even more Bieber. Huge fan of Baber obviously
- 33:55Speaker 3: for a ton of years, but just not that guy anymore.
- 33:58Speaker 3: He's gotten hit horror since he's in all his starts
- 34:02Speaker 3: this year's man, yeah, what a left on the Padres
- 34:07Speaker 3: were last night against Merrill Kelly, who man, he knuke
- 34:12Speaker 3: the slate with like twenty five plus DraftKings points. Now
- 34:16Speaker 3: you get the Padres in a similar good spot against Bieber.
- 34:20Speaker 3: I'm in on the Padres here. Their price tags are
- 34:22Speaker 3: too cheap. There are another like top tier stack for me,
- 34:27Speaker 3: but I think lower top tier like Baltimore case. Those
- 34:31Speaker 3: teams look better obviously, but they're gonna get an ownership
- 34:35Speaker 3: and price discount on San Diego. So I think I
- 34:39Speaker 3: more like this game for many stacks and one offs
- 34:41Speaker 3: just because of the ballpark. But there's enough power here
- 34:44Speaker 3: and pitchers that give up power for you to go
- 34:46Speaker 3: even deeper.
- 34:48Speaker 2: Uh six home runs in three starts this year for
- 34:51Speaker 2: Bieber that he's given up. So yeah, so you know,
- 34:53Speaker 2: I want to have some of the power beats, some
- 34:57Speaker 2: of the power bets for the Padres. Good stuff there.
- 35:00Speaker 2: Next game up on the slate, you got the Kyle
- 35:03Speaker 2: hurt led Dodgers taking on e Rod All Star e
- 35:08Speaker 2: Rod Diamondbacks at the Dodgers. Kyle Hurt is uh is
- 35:13Speaker 2: stone men four K. I don't know if he's an
- 35:15Speaker 2: opener or what. Matt but taught me through this guy
- 35:18Speaker 2: and any bats for the d Backs and or the
- 35:22Speaker 2: Dodgers tonight.
- 35:25Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't imagine Hurt pitches that deep. I mean
- 35:28Speaker 3: most of his pitch most of his like pitches thrown
- 35:31Speaker 3: in games, there's like between fifteen and twenty So okay,
- 35:35Speaker 3: one inning type guy. Yep, he's been good. So like
- 35:39Speaker 3: you're not looking to pick on Kyle Hurt, But I
- 35:42Speaker 3: always like these spots when you've got a guy, you know,
- 35:45Speaker 3: especially in ace pitching, and they get scratched and now
- 35:47Speaker 3: a team is scrambling to use guys. That's said. The
- 35:50Speaker 3: Dodgers still have a good bullpen. They're not a bullpen.
- 35:52Speaker 3: I like picking on it a bullpen game. I think
- 35:55Speaker 3: Arizona has a role on this slate because they're no
- 35:58Speaker 3: longer facing on Tani, and they're rices are cheap like
- 36:02Speaker 3: Corbin Carroll still wildly in play. Could tell Marte We've
- 36:07Speaker 3: seen Arizona, I mean nuke and this ballpark plenty of
- 36:10Speaker 3: times in years past. Christian Walker comes to mind. He's
- 36:14Speaker 3: no longer here, but they still got guys that can
- 36:16Speaker 3: get it done. And then the Dodgers, Yeah, e Rod,
- 36:22Speaker 3: I mean, he's having a good year, but a lot
- 36:25Speaker 3: of it is smoking mirrors. In my opinion, he's due
- 36:27Speaker 3: for major regression and this is a good spot for
- 36:29Speaker 3: it to come. The Dodgers, we know how good they are.
- 36:32Speaker 3: They're in play on every slate. They're expensive, but we
- 36:35Speaker 3: like cheap pitching and we may or may not get
- 36:38Speaker 3: Otimy tonight. So I like this game for offense.
- 36:41Speaker 2: I wonder, I wonder if if Otani is gonna bat tonight,
- 36:48Speaker 2: And then I wonder.
- 36:49Speaker 3: If that's what I was thinking too.
- 36:51Speaker 2: Even if he does bat, though, do they have enough
- 36:53Speaker 2: time to put him in the playerpool because he's not
- 36:56Speaker 2: in the player pool as a hitter?
- 36:59Speaker 3: Probably not.
- 37:01Speaker 2: So does that make you like their stack a little? Less?
- 37:06Speaker 3: Has to because just less combinations that you can get
- 37:08Speaker 3: up get to them?
- 37:10Speaker 2: Right? Yeah? Ye know, Tony's out for the All Star
- 37:15Speaker 2: Game as well. All right, good stuff there. Moving on
- 37:18Speaker 2: to the last game, Robbie Ray. Mean you gotta like
- 37:20Speaker 2: Robbie Ray. Sixty eight hundred bucks for the Brentwood High
- 37:25Speaker 2: School legend, Robbie Ray in his home ballpark against this
- 37:28Speaker 2: team who couldn't hit, hit out of a paper sack
- 37:31Speaker 2: got the Rockies. Willie Castro Hunter Goodman looks to be
- 37:36Speaker 2: back in the lineup tonight. But man, I'm not a
- 37:39Speaker 2: fan of this Rockies team. Definitely not a fan of
- 37:41Speaker 2: this ballpark. I am a fan of sixty eight hundred
- 37:43Speaker 2: Robbie Ray. I'm not a fan at Flash Gordon at
- 37:46Speaker 2: fifty two hundred bucks. But talk to me about this
- 37:48Speaker 2: game Rockies at the Giants who were able to muster
- 37:52Speaker 2: up I think one hit in the ninth inning yesterday.
- 37:57Speaker 3: That was two days ago against Ceased. They destroyed. Last
- 37:59Speaker 3: night against the Rockies. Goodman was back for the Rockies
- 38:03Speaker 3: and the and the Giants had a really good game
- 38:05Speaker 3: against Feltner and the Rockies bullpen. As far as tonight goes,
- 38:11Speaker 3: I feel like we buried the lead. And by not
- 38:13Speaker 3: even mentioning Robbie Ray yet, I mean that price tag
- 38:15Speaker 3: is insane. I'm not even the biggest Robbi Ray guy,
- 38:18Speaker 3: but he's the same price he was last week in
- 38:21Speaker 3: Colorado when he was also too cheap. Thought hard about
- 38:25Speaker 3: playing him. Then he was just okay. I did not
- 38:28Speaker 3: play Robbie Ray here. This Colorado team on the road
- 38:31Speaker 3: against left handed pitching is awful raising good for him too.
- 38:37Speaker 3: He's not even projected for that much ownership. I think
- 38:40Speaker 3: he's gonna be chalky. How could he not be choking?
- 38:42Speaker 2: Yeah, how could he not be? You're not playing anybody
- 38:44Speaker 2: else around him.
- 38:46Speaker 3: He's so cheat like he's a good like I don't
- 38:50Speaker 3: even get the tag. Yeah, I mean, if I'm playing
- 38:52Speaker 3: one lineup, he's probably in it, and it doesn't feel
- 38:54Speaker 3: great because it's Robbi Ray, but Rocky, I'm looking at his.
- 39:00Speaker 2: If he scores fifteen tonight, is that enough to get
- 39:02Speaker 2: you on the winner at sixty eight hundred?
- 39:04Speaker 3: I mean yeah, because it's all about the bats. But
- 39:07Speaker 3: like you're not excited about that asbout sixteen because price
- 39:10Speaker 3: tag doesn't really matter in MOLB like I'm not. It
- 39:15Speaker 3: does in the sense that like it opens up everything,
- 39:17Speaker 3: but like I still think you need a good start
- 39:20Speaker 3: from Robbie Ray here, like, I'm more playing him because
- 39:22Speaker 3: I think he could be. I mean, I'll put it
- 39:26Speaker 3: like this, I think the odds of Robbie Ray being
- 39:29Speaker 3: the highest scoring picture on the slate are significantly higher
- 39:34Speaker 3: than most sixty eight hundred dollars pictures usually like significantly higher.
- 39:39Speaker 3: So that's why I'm gonna play him.
- 39:41Speaker 2: Goodness, gracious, I'm not talking about that.
- 39:46Speaker 3: What happened.
- 39:48Speaker 2: The A's lineup came out. It is absolutely putrid. Lawrence
- 39:55Speaker 2: Butler the law dog leading off.
- 39:59Speaker 3: I mean, I could play some here.
- 40:01Speaker 2: Jonah Heim that ain't clean up. No Man, that ain't it.
- 40:05Speaker 2: Joey Manesse's No, this lineup is straight dog do doo,
- 40:13Speaker 2: Sean Burke, get him in your lineup's asap. If not,
- 40:16Speaker 2: Spinner Oakland, A's don't do it tonight, Matt. I know you,
- 40:21Speaker 2: I know you're chomping at the bit to play the
- 40:22Speaker 2: A's back in the day the City. Don't do it tonight.
- 40:28Speaker 3: Check me with Kurts out, Yeah, no, Kurts.
- 40:34Speaker 2: Yeah. That's one of the worst lineups I've ever seen.
- 40:38Speaker 2: I'd rather have Jack Peterson in my lineup than Lawrence Butler.
- 40:42Speaker 3: Butler, what do you mean that's no Butler. No, no, no, no,
- 40:47Speaker 3: you cannot like the lineup. But why is Butler the
- 40:50Speaker 3: guy you would pick out there?
- 40:51Speaker 2: I guess just because he's battle.
- 40:54Speaker 3: Yeah, I actually think the top five is in play.
- 41:02Speaker 3: I know, man, Lawrence Butler, I'm not.
- 41:06Speaker 2: I mean, I know, I know. Batting average doesn't mean anything.
- 41:09Speaker 2: But if you're looking for a if you want a
- 41:11Speaker 2: guy batting two oh three on the year, then Lawrence
- 41:13Speaker 2: Butler is your guy. Like, that's your guy. If that's
- 41:15Speaker 2: what you want, then he's your guy. That's not what
- 41:19Speaker 2: I want. He's terrible.
- 41:23Speaker 3: Agree to disagree?
- 41:26Speaker 2: How could you look at me and tell me Lawrence
- 41:28Speaker 2: Butler is a good baseball player.
- 41:30Speaker 3: Because he's a guy that crushed in the minors. The
- 41:32Speaker 3: A's gave him a big deal. He's clearly not having
- 41:35Speaker 3: a good year. But we see this often with MLB
- 41:37Speaker 3: guys struggling in their second year. Are we gonna say,
- 41:41Speaker 3: like Jackson Merrill isn't good, you know what I'm saying, Like,
- 41:44Speaker 3: and I'm not even saying Butler's as good as Merrill,
- 41:47Speaker 3: but Merrill's also having a really shitty year. Like baseball's
- 41:50Speaker 3: a gear sport. Butler, he's a guy, I'm going to
- 41:53Speaker 3: buy low on not necessarily the only thing.
- 41:57Speaker 2: The only way I was gonna let you out of it.
- 41:58Speaker 2: If you've said he's thirty four hundred dollars and you
- 42:01Speaker 2: didn't say that, so, yeah, well.
- 42:02Speaker 3: He is thirty four. I mean, obviously I was getting there.
- 42:05Speaker 3: You interrupted me before I could get there. With the a's,
- 42:10Speaker 3: the big problem with the a's is, like I talked
- 42:12Speaker 3: about earlier, you got two catchers in there, so in
- 42:14Speaker 3: the top five, it's hard to get there.
- 42:19Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, a's aren't scoring more than three runs.
- 42:23Speaker 2: You can, you can take that to the bank. Might
- 42:27Speaker 2: have eight strikeouts. Sean hurt Is that his name?
- 42:33Speaker 3: Sean?
- 42:35Speaker 2: Yeah, go ahead and go ahead and all your pre
- 42:39Speaker 2: load Sean Burke and every single one of your one
- 42:41Speaker 2: hundred and fifty lineups. He should come. He should come
- 42:44Speaker 2: with a with a little check box next to that
- 42:48Speaker 2: lock button. Can you do that for me?
- 42:53Speaker 3: Matt do what now? Sorry? I missed that?
- 42:57Speaker 2: Uh check that check that little lock button next Sean
- 43:00Speaker 2: Burke's name.
- 43:04Speaker 3: No, definitely not. I mean you liked a bunch of
- 43:10Speaker 3: pictures on this show. I mean you liked Robbie Ray
- 43:13Speaker 3: a lot. You like Mexic a lot. You liked Sonny Gray,
- 43:17Speaker 3: you like Sandy. Now you're locking Sean Burke. You know
- 43:21Speaker 3: you can only play two pitchers in any lineup.
- 43:23Speaker 2: Right, I'm gonna call my DK rep and see if
- 43:26Speaker 2: I get you play.
- 43:27Speaker 3: On a fan duel. I'll say you can only play
- 43:29Speaker 3: one of these guys.
- 43:29Speaker 2: Like, I'm not playing, are you.
- 43:32Speaker 3: Just you're gonna you're playing like the DK contact where
- 43:35Speaker 3: you just roster all pictures.
- 43:36Speaker 2: Huh No, you gotta call your DK rep and sometimes
- 43:41Speaker 2: they like to play.
- 43:44Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 43:49Speaker 2: All right, well that yeah, I told you pre show.
- 43:51Speaker 2: There's a bunch of pictures on here that are great.
- 43:54Speaker 2: So now we're gonna put on your name, the best
- 43:57Speaker 2: three name name the best three pictures eight and above,
- 44:00Speaker 2: and then your one pitch.
- 44:01Speaker 3: Was that the last game of the slate?
- 44:03Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, the wow. Yeah, I interrupted you on your
- 44:09Speaker 2: Robbie Ray Robbie Ray spiel. So that's the last game
- 44:12Speaker 2: on the slate. So give me your top three pitchers
- 44:14Speaker 2: eight K and above, and Sean Burke is gonna be
- 44:17Speaker 2: your one below eight K that you're playing. Other than that, go, I'm.
- 44:20Speaker 3: Just gonna do top three all combined because a k
- 44:23Speaker 3: above below? Who cares? I got three top guys. Give
- 44:26Speaker 3: me Robbie Ray, Sandy and Chris Sale. It's my top three.
- 44:32Speaker 2: Sandy, So you have Robbie Ray above Sean Burke. Can
- 44:37Speaker 2: we get a wager on that.
- 44:39Speaker 3: You're you're okay? Let me get this great? Okay? You
- 44:45Speaker 3: think that having Robbie Ray, who's cheaper than Sean Berke
- 44:48Speaker 3: at home in San Francisco, mind you against the Rockies
- 44:51Speaker 3: is somehow some crazy take over Sean b No, no.
- 44:55Speaker 2: No, no, not at all not. I think he's a
- 44:57Speaker 2: great play. I think Robbie Ray is a great play.
- 44:59Speaker 2: I just think Sean Burke's gonna mow these a's down
- 45:02Speaker 2: and to just drag them across their face.
- 45:06Speaker 3: I think they're both good place. Honestly, I think that Burke,
- 45:08Speaker 3: what do they own? Projected ownership wise, Burt's been potted.
- 45:13Speaker 3: Burke's gonna get love, man like, no doubt about it.
- 45:15Speaker 2: Well, yeah, anybody that has Lawrence Butler leading off the
- 45:18Speaker 2: opposing picture is gonna get love. I agree, Burke's not
- 45:24Speaker 2: gonna be higher on than Robbie Ray at sixty eight
- 45:26Speaker 2: hundred bucks.
- 45:27Speaker 3: You don't think, no, do you? Probably not see what we.
- 45:33Speaker 2: Let's see what we got eighteen, which I think is low.
- 45:39Speaker 2: This hasn't been updated in a while, but eighteen versus
- 45:44Speaker 2: a fifteen, it's about a.
- 45:46Speaker 3: Lot of good pictures on this slate. There are a
- 45:47Speaker 3: lot of good pictures on this slate, no doubt anyway.
- 45:50Speaker 2: I think both are in great spots. I'm not saying,
- 45:52Speaker 2: so you like you like Sandy that much? You like
- 45:54Speaker 2: Sandy a lot?
- 45:55Speaker 3: Then I do like Sandy a lot. I think the
- 45:58Speaker 3: price tag is just really good there. And I don't know,
- 46:03Speaker 3: I've rostered clean in a bunch And if they come
- 46:06Speaker 3: back and bite me in the ass today, that would
- 46:08Speaker 3: be typical of DFS. But watching this team now they're
- 46:12Speaker 3: in Miami.
- 46:14Speaker 2: Like, yeah, they like all our Yeah.
- 46:18Speaker 3: I mean, Sandy isn't a guy I feel like great
- 46:21Speaker 3: about ever these days, but he's talented enough. I mean
- 46:25Speaker 3: he's coming off a really good start.
- 46:31Speaker 2: You know, we say we like a bunch of pitchers,
- 46:32Speaker 2: and I do, but we also like a bunch of stacks.
- 46:36Speaker 3: Yes, we do.
- 46:37Speaker 2: Give me your top three stacks.
- 46:40Speaker 3: Top three stacks gonna be I'll give you my second.
- 46:47Speaker 3: So my second and third favorites are gonna be the
- 46:50Speaker 3: white socks, and we'll say the royals. Do you know,
- 46:55Speaker 3: can you guess my favorite braves? Oh, but that's a
- 47:00Speaker 3: good one too. There's a lot of good stacks, you're right, uh.
- 47:04Speaker 2: Uh, Padre.
- 47:06Speaker 3: No, but it's also a good one Astros.
- 47:09Speaker 2: Astros, yes, see man, yeah, cal control, gosh, there's a
- 47:13Speaker 2: bunch of good offenses.
- 47:14Speaker 3: All those ones you mentioned are also really good.
- 47:16Speaker 2: It's the slate, yeah, dang, so you you got the
- 47:20Speaker 2: white sox above the braves.
- 47:22Speaker 3: I like both, you know, I think I would replace
- 47:27Speaker 3: the royals with the braves after you said them. I
- 47:29Speaker 3: think it's the white Sox astros braves for me.
- 47:33Speaker 2: No, you mean you mean Astros, Yes, all.
- 47:36Speaker 3: Three of them. I just met, like the top in
- 47:39Speaker 3: any order.
- 47:41Speaker 2: Yes, not even mention the Cubs with Hunter Green, all right,
- 47:45Speaker 2: the Orioles, the doctor that yeah, twins, Yeah, twins, that
- 47:51Speaker 2: were one that definitely stood out. Yeah, a bunch of
- 47:57Speaker 2: what about and I and I did rudely interrupt you,
- 47:59Speaker 2: but giant Stag versus Tanner Flash Gordon.
- 48:04Speaker 3: I was thinking about them, but I didn't even go
- 48:07Speaker 3: back to mention them, just because this ballpark, man.
- 48:09Speaker 2: Like.
- 48:12Speaker 3: I feel like the beab the San Diego games differently
- 48:15Speaker 3: different because Bieber is giving up a ton of power
- 48:17Speaker 3: and Seers gives up a lot of fly balls. So
- 48:21Speaker 3: those teams have power upside, whereas I mean, yeah, you
- 48:25Speaker 3: could stack San Frayan here against Tanner Gordon and the
- 48:27Speaker 3: Rockies bullpen. They went off last night. I I don't
- 48:31Speaker 3: think they're a bad stack. I just I don't know
- 48:34Speaker 3: probably why. I don't love stacking, you know, full stacking
- 48:36Speaker 3: San Diego or Toronto on this late It's just hard
- 48:38Speaker 3: to get to this ballpark when we've got good offensive spots.
- 48:44Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna give you my ham hot take of
- 48:45Speaker 2: the day. You're not gonna like it. I know you're not.
- 48:48Speaker 2: No one's gonna like it. But I think the Royals
- 48:50Speaker 2: disappointed tonight in that ballpark. Brandon now has been decent,
- 48:53Speaker 2: decent lately. Uh yeah, I'm out on the Royals. Don't
- 48:57Speaker 2: give me them, not with Josh Rojas in there all right,
- 49:00Speaker 2: last portion of the show, home run call of the Day, Matt,
- 49:03Speaker 2: give me one please.
- 49:08Speaker 3: We are gonna go with a guy mentioned a little
- 49:12Speaker 3: bit ago in a different uniform, Christian Walker going yard.
- 49:16Speaker 2: Christian Walker, love that you love the Astros. Top three
- 49:18Speaker 2: stack for you on the slate. I'm gonna get my
- 49:21Speaker 2: guy coming back. It's been long. We haven't seen a
- 49:25Speaker 2: bomb in quite some time for him at forty eight
- 49:27Speaker 2: hundred bucks. Murra Kami. I think gets on the board tonight.
- 49:31Speaker 2: Welcome back. Yeah against Aaron Savali, who we know. We
- 49:36Speaker 2: love picking on you love this White Sox team, you
- 49:39Speaker 2: love this Astros team. Let's go get a winner tonight.
- 49:42Speaker 2: Anything else before we get on out of here, Matt, No,
