• 0:46
  Speaker 1: day baseball here on this thirtieth on the twentieth of August,
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: here on Thursday, so I'm looking forward to talking it
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: with my man Matt here. Of course, usually we're on
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Thursday's we get a little extra early slate. Today. Thursday's
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: been a little light on us here in recent times.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: But hey, we got six games today, three games later,
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: but we're gonna be talking about the main slate that
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: we got here. But bring you on in here, man,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: how's it going? How is your week? And what do
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: you think real quick of this slate before we dive
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: into it.
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, week's going good, man, Happy to be on here
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: with you. I feel like we got on another day
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: last week or the week before, which was nice when
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: we got a bigger slate, but at least we got
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: what six games today, It should be a fun one
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: to talk about. Man. Since you guys traded Schooble, well,
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: I know Detroit hasn't been amazing, but they haven't been
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: as shitty as Cleveland. Who's been Cleveland baseball is depressing
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: right now, so you know, it's a lot more fun
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: when the team you root for is good and we're
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: not good right now, so it makes it more of
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: a drag. But if I'll start soon, So we get
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: the Browns.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Oh man, you know we're in this damn boat. I mean,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: we get the Lions. The Lion's been a little bit better,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: but like the Lions and Browns have been like the
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: two worst freaking NFL teams. You know that there is
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, if they if they ever, if one of
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: them plays in the Super Bowl, it'd be cool if
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: we played the other one, like Lions and Browns. I mean,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: I don't know, that might be earth shattering, but uh,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: either way, yeah, I mean, ever since we traded school ball,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: we brought in some younger kids that can actually fucking hit.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: The problem is, Matt, the Tigers have blown like forty
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: eight percent or something of their save opportunities this year, Like, like,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: that's fucking insane. How do you blow forty eight percent
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: of your save opportunities on the year. It's like eighteen times,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: like they've blown a lead like they should have. They
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: should be like seventy and fucking fifty. I mean, it's unreal.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: That's fucking wild. Honestly, forty eight percent of their saves.
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: I never heard of something like that. I didn't know that.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they were talking about in sports radio here in
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: the last couple of days how bad the bullpen's been.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: I mean, dude, like the starter's been pretty good, you know,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: it's just you can't blow that, man, said Canley Jansen.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: He needs to go Finn again. Hasn't been good, like
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: the bullpen's just the back half of that bullpens has
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: been ass.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean we're dealing with the same shit
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: here too in Cleveland, and our lineup is even worse.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: So I get it.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: That's not helps now he's he's hurt. Slash might be old,
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: so yeah, that's not not fun. I think Detroit has
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: a better record than Cleveland, though, and they were eleven
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: games behind Cleveland for a while. So yeah, since like
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: the beginning of the season, I can't remember at what
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: point I was just reading this, Cleveland has like the
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: third worst record in baseball, better than only I think
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: the Athletics and Rockies, like over the past couple of months.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: So we've lost like like six series or something like
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: more than that in a row. Sucks, man, Yeah.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: The American League sucks. Matt I mean bad. It's like
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: the worst I think I can ever recall. I'm fifty
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: four years old. I can never recall the American League
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: being as bad as it is right now. It's like insane,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Like there's really no good teams. There's like nothing that
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: you would even fear. That's like, I just feel like
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: whoever comes out of the National League is gonna be
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: looking pretty good to lift up the trophy. That's like
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: I was kind of, you know, just a little baffled
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: why some teams didn't maybe go after Schooball a little harder,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: like over in the National League, maybe like the Brew Crew,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: maybe you know, San Diego, Atlanta. I just thought there
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: was different teams that could have maybe tried to step up,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: because you feel like if you just beat the Dodgers
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: in the National League, like you got yourself a chance
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: to win the title. There isn't even a strong American
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: League team, especially if the Yankees don't have Judge. I mean, man,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: the AL just blows man Like seriously.
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: It's definitely the worst I've ever seen it as a
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: baseball fan who's fouled at my entire life, I can't
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: remember where there's this much mid like there's mid and
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: bad teams and really, like the only real good team
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: I think is the Rays. But like even them, they're
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: not like some jug or not like they could be beat.
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: I just think they're by far the best. Yeah to
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: your like World Series point, man, I was saying this
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: the other day to someone that the NL has to
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: be massive favorites in the World Series over the AL
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: and they were who I was talking to was like, well, yeah,
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: obviously because of the Dodgers, And I said, take the
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: Dodgers out. If you excluded the Dodgers, I think the
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: n L should still be a massive favorite over the
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: AL in the World Series. There's five teams outside of
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: the Dodgers that are on the Rays level or better
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: in the NL.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I think if you put them all
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: together and put group them in diovidion, there may be
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: be two teams from the aoh that may even make
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: the playoff combined out like of all of it, Like
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: it's not it's just really it's been an awkward season
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: so far this year. I mean, like, cal Riley can't
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: hit a fucking can't hit the save his life, dude.
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: I was reading a stat that guy with like one
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: arm in eighteen ever has hit for higher average with
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: cal Raley this year.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: Right, it's just yeah, it's terrible, But say hi to
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: some people the chat. See, we got Philly fan, we
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: got Aaron in here a little bit early with us. Aaron. Yeah,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: imagine if they had Wander Franco. I wish they had
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Wander Franco because the stack of baseball cards I have
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: wouldn't be completely fucking worthless. That because I thought Wander
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: was gonna be real good. I did invest some money
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: in them, and I got some pretty decent cards of
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Wander that, uh, I ain't gonna be very good. That's
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: why I always say, like, collect some of the old
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: guys that aren't around and they're dead, because they ain't
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: gonna have any problems that are gonna make their card
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: go away. Like if show Hey got busted for that
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: instead of happy for that gambling shit show hate cards
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: would be worthless too right now. So but uh yeah
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: either way, but we got six games today, let's uh,
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: let's dive into this mess here and see what we got.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: We got six games, like us, it doesn't look like
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: we got any weather to particularly worry about. I mean,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: we got the Giants on the slate, Gavin Williams' highest
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: strike up percentage almost thirty two percent. Got a pretty
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: bad Giants team that obviously we're gonna be picking on
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: here coming up in recent times. And then we got
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: seymour seymore Butts at twenty eight almost twenty nine percent,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: gets some matchup Furst the Blue Jays, and we got
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: George Kirby. Where's the Brewers. We got Rupe Gasser jump
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: maybe in play here today, But I mean, just looking
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: at the top hand, I mean, Gavin Williams has had
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: a few of those starts where he just hasn't looked
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: very good. But it's the times he has looked good.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: I mean the last three out of his five starts.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: Matter of fact, this will make it five out of
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: seven starts, five out of eight starts. Actually he's had
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: in the mid thirty points over on DK, so we
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: know he's got the strikeout capability. He had what five
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: games in a row where he had ten or more strikeouts?
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: His last two games he had five and seven, So
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: we definitely know the strike up matchups there. He's got
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: a Giants team that, I mean, more or less is
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: mirroring a minor league team minor league lineup up at
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: this point. But Williams, I mean, with the strike up
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: percentages he's got, he's got some strikeouts with devers A,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: Damis l Ridge Costs. At the bottom of that lineup,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: He's got what one, two, three, four guys that I
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: would call non strikeout threats. Gilbert fourteen percent, Jung Ho
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Lee eight percent. Uh, and then you got a couple
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: guys in the teams. But I mean we're looking at
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: a guy over all this year thirty two percent strike
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: out the left side, thirty percent to the right side.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: So I mean he's looked pretty good his last thirty days.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: His strike up percentages have actually picked up, which is
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: which is interesting. But I mean he still does have
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Gavin Williams still does have a pretty high fly ball
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: right to the left side. Has been getting barreled up
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: by the left side. But I mean, we really afraid
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: of this Giants lineup, I don't think so. I think
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: that's why Gavin Williams is gonna be pretty popular today, rightfully,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: so Seymour. Seymour butts here against gets the Toronto Blue Jays.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: He's been pretty good here his last five starts. He's
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: been anywhere between twenty and twenty seven points, So he's
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: definitely in play for me. Definitely a favorite here for
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: the Rays against that Blue Jay team. You're sitting there
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: looking at a game total of seven and a half
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: and he's a minus one sixty five favorite. So I
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: think that's interesting at eighty eight hundred. Man, I don't know, Man,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: I can't buy into some George Kirby. I don't know
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: about you. I just don't like to match up against
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: against the Brew crew with his low strikeout rate. And
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: then you got Landing Rup. I mean, he's been bad recently.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: He's just been a tough click here recent times has
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: not looked good. I mean his game log his last
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: four starts of not look good at all. He's been
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: struggling mightily. But as you mentioned, he gets a Cleveland
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: team here that is a pretty heavy favorite, almost a
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: minus or two hundred in a game total of seven.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: Of course, he gets that match up with Gavin Williams.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: But you know, maybe I don't mind the dueling pitcher aspect.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: But he's the only other guy Rup above eight K.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: We only got four guys above a K. I mentioned
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: Gasser and Jump. Maybe throw them in maybe we can
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: get to McGreevy and Singer. But man at the top here, Matt,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: it looks kind of ugly. I did think it's Williams
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: and Seemore for me. I mean, if I'm playing on DK,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: I try to figure it out with those two, I
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: think that's pretty much where i'd lie. Maybe if I
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: had a few other teams, maybe I'd take a chance
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: on some of these lower end guys. But man, Gavin
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: Williams for me'd be pretty easy click to be my
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: sp one both sites. I don't think it's that difficult
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: for me. It's pretty easy to get what you want.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: We don't really have to see too many high price
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: offenses today that I think offense is gonna be pretty
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: spread out. So for me, I'm gonna go with the
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: safer end on the pitching today, Andilliams and Seymour filled
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: that out for me. What do you think?
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: I agree with you wholeheartedly. I think those two guys
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: are like the clear number one and number two on
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: this slate, and it's not close. I mean, Williams, yeah,
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: you could talk me into like stacking some San Francisco
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: and large field stuff and non Gavin Williams lineups, but
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: on paper, he's by far the best picture on this
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: slate in an amazing matchup. Talk about this San Fran lineup.
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: It's awful minor league dish as you mentioned. So yeah,
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: I'm in on Gavin like I was in on Messic yesterday.
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: I don't feel as good about Seymour, but he's also
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: been really good, great matchup. This Toronto team stinks right now,
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: no problem picking on them. Yeah, eighty eight hundred is
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: a hefty tag for him, but he's deserved it, especially
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: on this slate. So I think those two guys are
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: the clear one and two.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: And too, not to cut you off, his last three
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: starts he's been up in the nineties were before you
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: know it was it was a reach for him to
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: get the eighty, So I do like in his last
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: three starts too, he's had you know what, ninety three,
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: ninety eight, ninety pitches, So that that helps me feel
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: a little better because we know what Tampa is with
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: their pitchers.
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: It's a great call. I mean, how can you not
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: like that just a little bit more, especially when you're
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: paying full freight for him. So yeah, I think it's
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: those two guys and then you want to make cases
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: for gass Er jump. Kirby's tough for me because, like
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: I just I don't know. The only reason I would
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: play Kirby is an ownership discount off of Seymour or Williams.
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: But I like those two a lot more, and I'm
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: not going to be playing enough lineups for me to
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: really want to get different there. So I'm with you.
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: It's the top two guys. Much rather get different with
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: my bass, because I think there's a bunch of good
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: stacks today. McGreevy is cheap enough and the Reds are
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: bad enough where you could play him, but you could
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: also stack the Reds here too, for sure, because he
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: is not good. And I feel like this is a
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: little bit similar to the last day slate we had.
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: I don't know, needs might have been filing, it might
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: have been I can't remember the circumstances of the show,
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: but I feel like it was last Thursday, and the
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: Reds were on the slate against Davis Martin, who also stinks,
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: and the Reds were the team you needed. So yeah,
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: I'm interested in we'll get the stacks. But mcgreevy's just
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: cheaping off against a bad Red Team. It reminds me
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: a lot of Davis Martin versus them last week. It
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: really does.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's uh, it gets kind of ugly
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: past those top two. It gets a little uncomfortable with
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: some clicks. But uh ay, Orioles, you know, it's a
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: free show. You got a chance to click off, just
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: like I have a chance to black your ass and
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: Baanya seeya. So either way, Uh yeah, pitching's just a
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: little bit, you know, just I mean, like when you
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: start getting down in these cheap guys here, I mean
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: like Dobnak McGreevy. I mean I just feel like, you know,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: with a guy like Dobnak, I see, you know was
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: asked in the chat there. I mean he's got a
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: twelve percent thirteen percent k rate to lefty sixteen percent.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: He's been walking a lot of guys. I mean, that's
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: just a recipe for disaster. I mean, I'm looking for
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: some upside. I mean I think if Seymour and Gavin
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: Williams go off, I mean you're gonna have to have
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: those two period Like, I mean you're gonna have to
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: literally hope one of those two fail and then picked
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: the right one because I just think those are the
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: two with upside, and they're both gonna be probably highly owned,
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: I would assume. But after those two, you know, it's
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: just like I said, it's just more of a it's
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: more of a reach. I just, uh, I mean I
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: did see I did see Bieber at the bottom there,
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: you know, really cheap six k. I mean, he had
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: a decent start last time out, he had, He went
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: six innings five k's, gave up one earned run, gave
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: up a solo shot. You got any interest in in
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: the Beabs.
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: I can't do it. He just hasn't been good, and
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: I feel like last Star was more of an outlier
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: than than anything else. That said, Like, I kind of
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: hope he's okay because I don't know if I want
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: to stack Tampa here. And when he's been bad, he
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: puts a lot of guys on base, and you know
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: that obviously leads to big innings. I mean, I get it,
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: like the name value, he's so cheap, but give me
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: like a gauge jump who's not that much more expensive
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: over him. Yeah, I just I can't do Beaber right now.
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: And I see someone who mentioned Dobnak in the chat.
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: That's not for me. Sure, he's been pretty good, but
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: there's a lot of noise in those numbers, and I
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: just I expect a negative regression to hit sooner rather
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: than later. I mean, Dobnack is striking out fourteen percent
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: of hitters. That's insane, and it's eer of one seventy
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: three is really good. His expected of four fifty seven
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: is not. So I'm waiting for that start where dob
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: Neck just gets destroyed. Might not happen today because the
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: a stink. Maybe he has another good start, and if
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: you play him and he does well, grat steel, he
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: won't be on my teams.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: One thing I saw else too, I wanted to add
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: about ed about Gage Jump. Just looking at him here, man,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: his control has been just fucking awful. The last thirty days.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: He's walking to nineteen percent of the lefties sixteen almost
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: seventeen percent of righties in the last thirty days. Overall
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: in the season, he's at a twelve and a half
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: percent walk percentage to lefties. But I mean, you just
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: look at his numbers too. I think another thing that
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: stood out for me was he's not been good at home,
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: but he's been really decent on the road. So I
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: think he's like, you know, you're pitching in a cracker
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: jack box over there out there, and at the Sacramento
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: he feels like, you know, he probably is, you know,
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: chicking to keep it around the plate. That's probably why
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: he's walking so many guys. But you know, I just
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: the difference in era is almost three and a half
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: runs from home to the road. So I think that, uh,
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: I think that's you know, definitely something you know that
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: that I'm looking at.
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: I feel like you need to ban piece of Sausage
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: too for his awful, awful taken chat about my toys
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: in the background, these WWF figures from the early nineties
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: that are probably worth more than Pizza sausage wife himself.
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: So we will not take slander about my WWF stuff
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: in the background there.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: You know, we agree with that too, Like you can't
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: you know, it's like ripping on me for having baseball
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: cards in the background.
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: Like there's some cards back there too, Like I mean, listen,
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: I got.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: It's like, is everybody like the early fucking like people
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: out in the you know world today just anger, Like
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: everybody want to you know, are we just choosing violence today?
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: Like you know, I don't get it. Whatever, it's a
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: free damn show like keep. I mean, I don't understand
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: people sometimes like whatever, I don't really care, but we
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: ain't gonna let the bad apples ruin the fun for
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: the rest of us. I mean, I'm surprised I haven't
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: got yelled at for calling them the Indians or you know,
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: some other shit that I usually catch slack for, which
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: is totally okay with me. I mean, it is what
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: it is. It's like, you know, you call the Canadians,
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: you call them the Habs, all of a sudden, you're
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: you're bad, Like, oh, it's my nickname.
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: For I didn't even know that one. I didn't know
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: that that was bad, honestly, never did.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: I mean, I guess it gets political if you start
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: calling the team that what they're not. I don't know.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, everything turns into politics, which is stupid. But
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: I mean, if I want, I mean, the team is
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: the team whatever I want to call them. I mean,
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: I fuck, I call the Tigers the shitty kitties, and
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: I had to call them all kinds of different things,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: you know, when you're talking with your friends. I mean,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: it is what it is. We're sports fans. We're all crazy.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: That's what fanatics stands for.
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: To people in Detroit hate when they call them the
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: Motor City kitties.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because it kind of sounds like, you know, girly ish,
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: you know. Yes, you know, like here in Detroit, we
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: can't wait for the bears to come in so we
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: can start chanting Hammon Bears, you know, like we can't
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: wait for that kind of crap, you know. But h yeah,
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: So either way, But yeah, like Juw says, maybe no
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: morning coffee yet, you get these people in it, Go
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: smoke a faddie, get you a nice Stativa doobie, put
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: it in your mouth, light it and suck on it
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: for a minute and you'll feel a little bit better.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: But yeah, like you said, negative nancies, Karen's, I mean,
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: we don't care. We get it all. Like trying to
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: predict DFS. Baseball is one of the toughest freaking things
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: you can possibly do. I've learned that a long time ago. Like,
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: and I've been playing this game for a long damn time,
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: and I've seen many that are really supposedly good come
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: and go and never play again because they can't take
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: the beat down. So either way, but yeah, good times,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: good times. Let's get to some hitting. We got the
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: six games, you know, let's back up, rewind. My brain
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: got a little messed up. So other than other than
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: Seymour and Gavin Williams, who do you feel good about
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: playing anyone else? Like I said, I mean, Jump scares
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: me a little bit because of his walk issues. Gasser,
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: I don't mind picking on that Seattle offense. That's just
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: been garbage. You know, maybe Singer and McGreevy. I think
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: that's more of a liquor bottle type play. And then
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: if I really want to start doing shots at jamisoner screwball,
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: maybe you could throw in some Bieber. But yeah, I
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: mean it's tough news, but I just think i'd stay
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: up the top. I mean feeling differently, I feel like.
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: There's no one I feel good about outside of the
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: top two guys. But there are other guys in play
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: because I could see Jump pitching well here, you know
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: there's other guys. We mentioned Gasser. You talked about the matchup.
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: There's other certainly other options in tournaments. If I were
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: playing one fifty, I wouldn't just load in Williams and Seymour.
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: But if I'm playing one lineup, it's hard to not
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: just play those two guys and get different with bats,
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: if that's your prerogative.
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I think offense should be fairly spread
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: out here. But as you see, I got the stone
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: pulled up here, we got our first game, we got
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: the Cards and Reds. We're sitting here looking at a
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: game total of a little bit over pretty close to
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: nine in some areas, so we got decent game here
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: for some hitting. We got Brady Singer and McCreevy, who
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: we just talked a little bit. Are we even interested
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: in either of these two pitchers? But I can't really say.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: I think I do prefer the red side in this
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: one here against against McGreevy. McGreevy, I means k percentages
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: pretty low to the left side fifteen percent so far
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: on the season, he's been getting bailed up almost eleven percent.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: So Ellie Dela Cruz bil a day. I think it
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: would be interesting top of that lineup. But yeah, I
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: mean after that, I think the Cards will be a
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: little bit further down for me picking that Singer, but
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: I think the Reds definitely be interesting. I mean, I
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: don't I don't think any offense stands out today like
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: we've seen in the past week here with Dodgers, you know,
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: and so forth. But I think the Reds, the Reds
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: would be interesting, especially in that park we like to
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: play in, great American small park.
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: I think both teams got to be in play here
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: for sure. I mean both pitchers can get got Singer
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: am McGreevy. I mean they both are not good. I
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: think McGreevy is slightly worse. But I do think the
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: Cardinals lineup is better than the Reds. So I think
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: both these teams got to be like top tier stacks today.
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: I wonder I'm interested to see I should say how
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: ownership breaks down. I bet it's really close between the
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: Cards the Reds, and a couple other teams. With you,
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: I think it's just spread. How it's slate. You can
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: kind of just plant your flag on who you want.
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: Both these teams got to be top tier stacks today.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: Singer just looking at his numbers, you know, I don't
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: know how you feel. But like when we start getting
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: later in this season here, I I really look at
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: pitchers last thirty days a little bit more than I
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: do in the time because disinterest, armed fatigue, so forth.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: You know, sometimes too, you start, you gotta watch pitch
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: counts as the time goes on.
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: There's no better example of that than Paul Skans go ahead, sorry.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, you know you, Paul Skins exactly. I mean
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: you get to go home to Livy doone every night, Like,
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: what the fuck do you care when your team's out
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: of it. I'm happy man going home. I don't give
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: a shit. But yeah, I do think that that kind
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: of matters. But you know, in the last thirty days,
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: Singer's walk percentage to the righties has been up a
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: little bit here. His ground ball percentages are still decent.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: He's not as good of a ground ball pitcher to
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: the left side as he is to the right side.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: But I mean when I start seeing numbers click up
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: in the walk percentage area and hard hit rate and
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: stuff like that, it does concern me a little bit
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: when I'm on some of them guys. But yeah, I
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: think both teams are in play. I got the Reds
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: a little higher. I mean, of the twelve teams, I
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: think I'd have both of these on the upper half
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: six of the teams. But I do think the Reds
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: are a little bit more interesting for me. I just
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: think they got a little bit more power. All right,
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: let's see here, what other game we got here? We
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: got the next one here, we got the Indians and
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: the Giants. We got a pitching, pretty decent pitching matchup.
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: I don't have any interest in any Giants. I don't
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: even have any interest in any of the one offs.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: If you weren't playing any Gavin Williams lineups, I mean,
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: I guess maybe you could look at Adevers if you
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: wanted to go that route. Land of Rupp, on the
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: other hand, has had some issues here in recent time.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: He has not been good. He's had all kinds of
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: walk issues. I just wish your team over there was
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: hit a little bit better. I just I really don't
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: like the lineup. I haven't really been playing him here.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: I don't see any reason for me to go there
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: this time. I mean, maybe you could tuck me into
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: some Cleveland, but I just I can't do it. I
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: just they haven't been hitting at all here in recent times,
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: so it's kind of hard for me to give up,
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: you know, just just forget about all that and play
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: him here today. I just can't do it.
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't blame you man. I mean Raup is
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: someone I like to use when he's at home, and
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: I like to I don't necessarily want to pick on
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: him on the road, but I'm more I'm more willing
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: to pick on him on the road. Obviously a big
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: ballpark downgrade for him going from San fran to Cleveland,
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: and I think you can use pieces of Cleveland, but
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: as a full stack it's just hard for me to
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: get on board there. They will run a little bit
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: like their lineup just right now, with no de laut
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: or no Joe Adele. You got Bizan a hitting second.
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: I like it because he runs, but he really hasn't
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: been good. So I think my favorite piece of Cleveland
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: is on how ganal Janal top prospect you know, is
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: in the middle of that lineup, switch hitter. So I
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: don't mind some pieces of Cleveland, but hard for me
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: to want to full stack them. And the Giants on paper,
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: I don't like them at all. They just offer a
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: really really crazy amount of leverage on a small slate,
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: and they also get a big ballpark upgrade. So if
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: I were playing one fifty, I would definitely have some
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: giant stacks, But you know, I can't sit here and
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: say I want to play them in single entry. But
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: I'll say this like yesterday night with Messic in a
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: similar spot as Gavin Williams. You know, Gavin Lilliams is
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: the better DFS pitcher than the Messic and I'm sure
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: Gavin Williams will be higher rowned than Messic was last night.
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: The Giants and the Big eight eighty eight were unowned,
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: not like one percent, like all of them were zero
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: percent owned. So if you're telling me that no one
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: is going to play the Giants interested, obviously we won't
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: know that going in and I probably won't play them personally,
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: but you get a crazy amount of leverard, So got
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: to shout that out.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: Man. They're just coming out of the woodwork today, Matt
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: like this. I'm just I got the button already. Anybody
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: else wants what was that one?
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: I didn't even see it said?
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: If you're taking advice from these two, you might as
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: well not even play. I mean, dude, I've been to
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: more live finals and fucking you've had girlfriends, bro, so
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: you know you can whatever you want. I mean, give
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: me a fucking break, so either way, but yeah, I can't.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: I can't get on board with anyone that. I mean,
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: it's hard to play offenses when you got a game
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: total sitting at seven. So I'm I'm off in that one.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: But we got that twelve forty game. I forgot to
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: mention that Saint Louis game, twelve forty read Saint Louis.
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: And then we got two at the one ten. So
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: that Cleveland game at one ten, and then this Toronto
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: and Tampa Bay game is also at one ten. I mean,
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: we're sitting here looking at Shane Bieber. I mean, I know,
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: it's pretty hard. This dude's been walking quite a bit
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: of lefties. He's at fourteen to fifteen percent walk rate
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: here to the left. East has been getting barreled up
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: by both sides of the plate twelve percent, eleven percent
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: so far this year. His WOLLBA was pretty high, even
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: to three to eighty two to the right side ground
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: ball percentage mid lean ground ball pitcher still, I mean,
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: but he has been giving up a lot more fly
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: balls to the left side. So I mean, obviously junior
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: Cameron Aro is going to be in play with anybody pitching,
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: But I mean, with the barrel rates being high both
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: sides of the plate, I mean I can see Tampa
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: being fairly popular today. I don't know if I'm gonna
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: be able to afford like a junior Camonaro and then
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: get up to some of these high end pitchers here
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: today though, so I think that is definitely a concern.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: But I'd have the Rays up there at the top
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: end of the offenses here today against the Beabs. But yeah,
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: I mean Tampa not bad. I mean game team run
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: total of sitting in the mid fours. There are some
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: teams higher. But I mean, I think this matchup against
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: Bieber looks pretty interesting. Pick on the Beabs here, Tampa
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: pretty heavy favorite. But yeah, I mean I don't know
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: if I can jam in Junior with Gavin and Seymour.
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: But I mean you can still build a fairly decent
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: team even if you don't have Junior in your lineup.
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you just like the race stat because they're in
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: a good spot against Bieber. I mean, for sure, Bieber
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: puts guys on base. Whenever you do that, you're susceptible
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: the big innings. Yeah, hard not to like Tampa here.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: And then the only thing I'll say about Toronto is
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: Saber does like them, you know, Seymour is gonna get
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: a lot of love. He's not like some bona fide ace.
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: So Toronto's got some guys that can hit lefties. I
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: don't even hate using one of the two of those
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: guys with Seymour in a lineup. But for me, it's
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: all about the race. I like Seymour and I like
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: the Tampa stack.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm just trying to decide if Tampa. I don't
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: really think any offense is gonna be overly high owned today.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: I'm just trying to feel if Tampa is probably may
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: fit that bill to where they're gonna probably give more
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: ownership than everybody else. But I don't really think we're
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: gonna see a chalky type offense today, do you No.
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: I think Saint Louis and Cincinnati are probably the too
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: highest owned, but nothing crazy at all. I think it's
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: pieces from a lot of offenses are popular.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with that. I mean this is even
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: kind of Slay too. You know, when you talk about
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: roster construction, maybe you know stacking one team, throwing in
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: some you know, some high power bats in with with
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: the stacks. I've been noticing a lot of people doing that.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: I always like to go back and kind of view
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: and see what winning lineups, how they looked, and all
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: that fun stuff, how they built their line up. It
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: seems like more and more people are sticking with one stack,
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: throwing into two two and or two v two, you know,
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: two players one team two from another. So yeah, just
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: interesting to see how, you know, the game keeps evolving,
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: that's for sure. But all right, moving on, we get
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: next team, and.
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: I just wanted to comment. I just wanted to comment
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: real quick on the seer said Jays really can't hit lefties.
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: I don't. I think that was in response to me
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: saying that, like you could use a bat or two
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: against Seymour because he's gonna be popular, And yeah, they don't.
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: They haven't been good against left handed pitching. But the
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: top five of their lineup individually all profile well and
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: have done well against right handed pitching at times. At least.
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: Mcketto was raking in the minors, so is Cameron, Alejandro Kirk,
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: we know George Springer obviously in Okamoto. So that's not
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: like five easy outs here for Seymour. I mean, all
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: those guys Mackato and Cameron might be, but all those
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: guys have power. You can use one off them in
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: any lineup.
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Seymour does have a fly ball lean.
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: I mean just because we, you know, we feel like
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: he's the top end pitcher today. I mean there are
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: still some flags there for sure. I mean, playing guys
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: that have fly ball rates like like he has is
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: pretty high. I mean his his flyball rates pretty high.
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: So I mean definitely a little bit of a concern.
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, if if you don't like Seymour, I feel right,
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: I'd feel better about playing a one off against Seymour
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: than I would against Devin Williams.
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm playing Seymour. I just wanted to call
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: it out because it's a small slate and levers get
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: you a long way on slates like this.
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, sir, all right, So moving on here, we
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: got the two o'clock games here. We have the A's
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: here against the A's and Royals. What are we looking
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: at here? Gage Jump against dob Neck Royles sitting there
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: with that four point six team total, A's just below four.
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: I can't say that I really have any interest in
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: the A's against dob Neck. They just haven't been very
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: good here in recent times, so I can't say I'm
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: really looking at that. On the other side of that
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: one with Kansas City, I mean, it's just been hard
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: for me to to play Kansas City. I think Jump is.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: You know, he's been a fairly decent picture on the road.
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: As we were talking about, I mean, maybe Bobby Wit.
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: I mean, you could always play Bobby Wit, maybe Garcia
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: if you wanted to look there. I just don't really
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: see the power that I'm looking for.
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: We got more, we got more hate comments. It's funny too,
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: because Jason Smith. His comment's funny because Wow, we made
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: a point of mentioning how we much prefer the thirty
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: day stats when we're talking about pictures right now in
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: this season, and I'm just I'm not I can't even
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: I'm not even gonna dignify him with a response.
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: Besides that, right, Jason, you know these fucking clowns are hilarious.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: What do you guys? Just keep guy, same guy, keep
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: coming back with your fucking burner. It must be one
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: of our must be one of our competitors who worry
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: about us all the time.
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: I'm getting paid to make a DFS show. I'm getting
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: paid to make a DFS show that you're watching, so
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: who's the loser?
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, It's hilarious to me. But uh, either way,
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: I don't get it. Everybody's just being an asshole today.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: Go uh, you know, just go outside and kiss your neighbor,
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: hug your kids, do something else. Then worry. And if
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: you got that much hate and anger, you shouldn't gamble anyway,
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: because you're a fucking bad apple and you bring bad juju.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: Go take your juju somewhere else. Go take your ball
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: somewhere else. Man. So either way, we're moving on. We
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: don't care about these losers. I'll just keep firing away
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: at them. Either way, we got next game. Let's take
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: a peek here. We got h the braves in White Sox.
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: Man White Sox come out of nowhere this year. I
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: saw they had a one percent chance to win the
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: Central Division when the season started. I mean, damn, he
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: probably would have got some healthy odds in that one.
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: We got Grant Home and Anthony Kay here today. I mean,
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: I don't mind picking on I don't mind picking on
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: Grant Holmes. I mean he's not very good against lefties.
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: Murakamiock Obviously he's been smacking the shit out of the
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: baseball you got pretty good. Other guy's been attendee Colson Montgomery.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: That bullpen isn't very good, So yeah, I think definitely
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: interested in some White Sox. I wouldn't have him up
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: at the top of my list here, but Holmes has
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: not been looking good. His control has been off here
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: recent times. Last thirty days, been walking thirteen percent of lefties.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: He's been getting buriled up by both sides of the plate,
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: so ground ball percentage still mid lean to the left side,
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: but the right side is not very good. He's been
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: get giving up almost forty percent fly balls his last
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: thirty days. His wOBA has been getting beat up, So yeah,
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: I think I got some interest in some White Sox here.
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: As far as Atlanta goes against k we're obviously going
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: to want some of the right side bats, so I
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: do prefer to play the Braves against righties. Kay has
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: not been very good against against righties so far this season,
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: for as strikeout rate been down to fifteen percent for
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: actually the same numbers go for the last thirty days,
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: but he's been getting buriled up quite a bit here
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: by righties too, So I think the Braves got a
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: place on this slate. I mean, we know they got
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: some power. I'd probably put them in my top five
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: in the upper half. But I think the White Sox
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: for me, are definitely one of the top stacks here today.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: I put them right up there with the Rays. I
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: think I may even have the right White Sox even
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: a little higher than the Raise.
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: I like both these teams too. I mean, the Braves
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: have been shitty lately, They've lost five or six, they
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: just got swept by Minnesota, but it's still I mean,
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: this lineup is still really good. We've seen stretches from
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: them before where they have struggled and they've bounced back
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: because they're kind ups amazing. So yeah, I'm in on
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: Atlanta and I like the White Sox a lot. I
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: think the White Socks are lower on homes, isn't good.
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: I think this game is more offensive minded than the
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: field does. I'm hoping at least, so yeah, I'm with
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: you here.
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I still can't get over I mean the White
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: Sox fan, I mean, how fun would it be a
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: White Sox fan literally think you don't got a damn chance,
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, here you are top
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: of the division, looking good. But I just think that
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: goes back to what we were talking about top of
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: the show, how bad the American League's been all damn
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: season and they're playing in a shit ass division that
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: they get to play the Royals a bunch of times,
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: that Tigers haven't been good, So definitely, uh, definitely something there,
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: but yeah, I get it. Nad's there was also mentioning
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: that Bray's bullpen has been fairly good, which does hurt.
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean in this slate here, Nay, like
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: we were saying, like, there's just no offenses that really
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: stand out, So I think offense are going to be
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: shut up. But I do like the White Sox and race.
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: I think those are definitely It's definitely not a perfect
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: spot for the White Sox to need this point, but
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: it's a good enough spot against Holmes on a small
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: enough slate. And I think the ownership is low enough
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: where they are really intriguing to me if nothing else.
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: I mean, I do think ownership's flat, Like the only
• 38:15
  Speaker 3: team that's not going to be owned is Sam fran
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: and Toronto to a certain extent.
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I and Seattle. I don't think you're going to
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: see too.
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: Much on Seattle yeah, probably not.
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: That lineup's just been been that. Lineups just been terrible.
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: But yeah, so we agree, White Sox definitely one of
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: my favorite acts of the day. Then we got the
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: last one here on this daytime slate here on a Thursday,
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: we have a Seattle and Milwaukee. We got George Kirby
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: up against the Brew Crew, and then we have Robert Gasser,
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: the lefty going into Seattle. Man, I mean, anytime I
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: sit there and look at the Brew crewe, you know,
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: first thing I like to do is look at fly
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: ball percentages. George Kirby. The last thirty days, fly ball
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: percentages have been up fairly high, especially the left side
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: all seasons, been almost at thirty percent. He's actually six
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: seven percentage points higher to the right side here in
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: recent times, Kate percentages have been awful. Last thirty days
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: forty five at bats, forty six to the left side,
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: so pretty even over the last thirty days. But I mean, dude,
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: he's been walking fifteen percent of lefties six percent, or
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: I mean striking out fifteen percent of leftiest six percent
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: of rightys. I mean he's just not getting the job done.
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's just not going to be acceptable. He's
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: been getting beat up by righties too, So man, I mean,
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: I think Milwaukee could have a place on this slate
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: against George Kirby. I don't like the park, but I
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: just like the brew crew. I mean, they do everything.
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: They steal bags. I mean I put him up there
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: in the upper half of my of the teams here today.
• 40:03
  Speaker 3: I don't think though you like Milwaukee, you like Milwaukee,
• 40:07
  Speaker 3: and Aids like Seattle. What world are we living in?
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: You know? That's fine? He could they could be an
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: offensive game. I mean, normally I'm trying to talk n
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: Aids off the Brewers. You know, in certain spots, it's
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: just usually if there's a ground ball pitcher. But I
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: mean Kirby just hasn't been very good here in recent times,
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: so that's kind of what I'm basing this off of.
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: His strikeout percentages have been really low, ground ball percentage
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: has been low. He's been giving up a lot of
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: fly balls, So I mean that's what I'm looking at.
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: So that's why I do like the Brewers. I think
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: they're sneak here. I don't think they're going to be
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: as highly owned, but like I said, there's you know,
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: the ownership is going to be pretty spread out for offenses.
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: So I wouldn't discount the brew Crew even though I
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: do not like the park. We just generally don't play
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: out there in Seattle, but are in Milwaukee. I'm sorry,
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: but I don't. I just don't like the park there Seattle.
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: On the other hand, against Gasser, I mean, I mean,
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: I don't love it either. I just don't like I
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: think I'd rather prefer to play Gasser. But Gasser, if
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: you look at his numbers, is wOBA has been up
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: a little bit against the right side here so far
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: this year. He's got three fifty eight wOBA ground ball
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: percentage thirty one percent, fly ball percentage almost at thirty
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: percent as well. So I mean, if you wanted to
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: play Gasser, I'd prefer to play Gasser. Against the Mariners,
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: I don't really want to pick on them. I just
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: don't like the lineup. I mean a Rose Arena, Jay
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: Rod definitely in play ward up at the top. I'd
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: rather play the brew Crew in this one than the Mariners.
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: But for me, I don't love either side of it.
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: They're down a little bit. I prefer the reds, I
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: prefer the cards. I prefer the White Sox, but I
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: think there's a place here for the Brew Crew.
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: I'm with you all over all around here. I think
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: there's definitely a place for both these stacks on this slate,
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: but I like them less than the other teams we've
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: talked about. We've seen Milwaukee win the slate the first
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: game of the series, and then Seattle was really good yesterday.
• 42:10
  Speaker 3: I think both those are kind of outliers. I get
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: stack from either side here because I think both of
• 42:14
  Speaker 3: them are on the lower owned side of things. But
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: I also think all the teams you mentioned look better
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: on paper with higher upsides. So I'd rather pick on McGreevy,
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: Singer a bunch of guys than the pitchers in this game.
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: So the field will think so too. That's why their
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: ownership will be lower. But I think those other teams
• 42:31
  Speaker 3: have higher upside.
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with you there. So we're at the
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: that time of the show here where we're gonna give
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: out give me your top handful of pitchers, maybe two
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: or three pitchers. We'll make it three because we already
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: know Seymour and Gavin Williams, So give us one more
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: other than that, and then give us a couple of stacks,
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: and then we'll throw out a Homer call.
• 42:56
  Speaker 3: I'll go, obviously William Seymour. And then the third pitcher
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: I will go with is Jump. He hasn't picked on
• 43:03
  Speaker 3: the on the road in a couple starts, and he's
• 43:04
  Speaker 3: been much better outside of that. That bandbox and Sandy
• 43:07
  Speaker 3: and Sand and Sacramento. Excuse me, So those are my
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: three pitchers. Three stacks will go with the Reds, White
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: Sox and Braves. Homer who home run call? Let's go
• 43:28
  Speaker 3: with some righty on, righty crime, Miguel Vargus going yard.
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: All right? I like that one, all right, so me
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: pictures William Seymour, I got Gasser and Jump in the
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: same boat. I couldn't decide which of the two that
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: that I want. As far as offenses, I'm gonna go
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: White Sox Rays Reds would be, uh would be my favorites.
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: And then home run call. I'm going to the Reds
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: and I'm gonna go jj Blade goes yard for the Reds. Here.
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: So but yeah, we got six games. We had a
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: fun show here today. Appreciate everybody being here. Those that
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: chose violence today, we still love you. If you want
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: to come back, just you know, just hey, keep it tying.
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: No bad juju around here. We don't need that bullshit.
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: Guys laughing at me about wins from four years ago. Bro,
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: I've been playing this shit so damn long. I came
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: four years ago. Seems like yesterday, don't it. I mean
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: damn either way, fun show here today. Matt got any
• 44:33
