• 1:00
  Speaker 1: we got to worry about, which is a good thing.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: But uh yeah, I mean we got exciting days. Seems
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: like we've been on pretty early here in these in
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: this you know, early part of the season here, Matt.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: You know, of course, kind of cold in some of
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: these Midwest states out here. Daytime games a little bit
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: nicer on the uh you know, on on the game itself,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: a little bit warmer weather when the sun shining, when
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: it seems to go down. I mean, it gets pretty
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: cold out here, that's for sure. But Matt, another week
• 1:28

• 1:32
  Speaker 1: my friend?
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we've been doing a bunch of these early shows
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: on Thursday, which I enjoy.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Man.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: I like early baseball. It's part of the allure.
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: Of MLB in my opinion, So always a good time
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: breaking these down with you. I'm gonna keep it straight
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: class and not even mention the Calves win over there.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, oh that's all right, man, to go for it,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: give me shit, I love it. I mean the rivalry
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: between like any Michigan and Ohio sport is just fun.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: That's the way it is.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Fun.
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: It's real all cross basically every sport. I mean, starting
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: with Ohio State. Michigan for sure, so a lot of
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: fun there.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: We haven't beat you all like a month of fucking Sundays,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: you know. I mean, Ohio State got its last time,
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: the Tigers lost the Indians. I mean it's just like,
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: come on, man, we gotta get one. It was one
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: of these times.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And I'll tell you what I mean.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: I remember you guys getting us like when Lebron was
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: coming up, and I'll never forget him just taking over
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: that one series with like the thirty something straight points.
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: But the Calves, Pistons, Tigers, Indians, Guards, whatever, Michigan, Ohio State.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: It's fun stuff.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: I'm with you. So yeah, just a little ribbing there.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: If we stick the Lions and Browns to play and
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: something good, it'd be the super Bowl.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: Seriously.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: Well, that's I mean, that's one thing you guys have
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: that we just straight up don't have, is a good
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: football team. So very jealous of you there, But yeah,
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: good win for the Calves last night. If you stayed
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: up and watched the end of it, we'll see if
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: they can get.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: Few games have been kind of tough to watch as
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: a Piston fan.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: At the end.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: They just kind of unraveled the last couple of times.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: I mean, the turnovers Kate had in the game before.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: In this past one here they had nine point lead
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: with two minutes left. I mean, it's like, come on, man,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: close the damn game out. They they were taking terrible shots,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: like why you relying on Paul Reid, you know, in
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: the last two minutes of a freaking playoff game, Like dude,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: what are we doing here? Like I don't know. To me,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: the NBA's I'll smoke. I just I can't stand it, man.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: It's like the product's gone to shit recent times. Like
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: it's just I don't know, man, I'm just really not
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: too big of a fan in the recent NBA times.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: But Beck, you know, growing up with the Jordan and
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Larry Bird and the Pistons, and you know, going into
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: that time. I mean I always tell everybody, Michael Jordan
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: got me to watch basketball, and unfortunately Lebron's generation got
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: me to stop. So but yeah it did. Though. The
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: three point shooting, like there's no it's just I mean,
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: they used to back you down and you know, get
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: down in the post. There's like no more post players anymore.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: It's just fired up from Steph Curry range. And you know,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: it's just I don't know, it's just not fun to watch.
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: Were you a big and then we can talk about
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: this lay. Were you a big like Pistons fan growing up?
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: Though?
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: I mean I loved the Pistons growing up. I mean
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: I went to the games when it was in the
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Silverdome when they were throwing paymakers with you know, Kevin
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: McHale and Robert Parrish and Lambert and.
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: So the first ever Fantasy Baseball league I was in
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: was with my dad when I was like young, like
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: I'm talking, I was in like seven eight years old
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: and Bill Amber was in the league.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: So nice.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: You can appreciate that.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Hell, yeah, that's a big dude. Man I've met I've
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: met him in person, and that guy is he But
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: either way, I'll tell you what, there's there's there's a
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: thing on Twitter I like to see. I like to
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: tease the younger, younger generation, tell him Larry Bird had
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: more basketball skills than Lebron James will ever have. Larry
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Bird's one of the most skilled basketball players ever. But
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: there's a Twitter like Larry Bird something. You can go
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: on there and watch all the inner views with these
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: guys that were guarding them and the shit talking that
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: they were talking about. Man, it's some entertaining shit. Man,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: It's it's good shit. But either way, love the Michigan
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: Detroit Robber. But hey, we got some baseball here today.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: Both our teams are actually playing here today. Whether you're
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: a reds or I guess an Indians fan you said
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: you're an Indian fan, or Guardians in your case. But
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: we got some decent pitching up top I think, I
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: mean Nolan McClain, I think is in a really good spot.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Thirty one percent K percentage. Tiger's got all kinds of strikeouts.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: Seems like they've just been in an absolute rut here
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: recent times. Like, even as a fan, it's just hard
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: to watch these guys. Soon as Scooba went down, looks
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: like the Sale went out of that Tigers real quick.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: And then you got Chase Burns against the Nats. He's
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: at almost thirty one percent strikeout percentage. And then I
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: think Kyle Harrison's interesting too at a little discount at
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: almost twenty seven percent against the Padres, who generally I
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: don't like chasing but mad after that, I mean kind
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: of in the mid tier. I mean, you're you're sitting
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: there looking at you know, Dolanders interesting, had some k's.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: You got Carmen Uh, Malazinski against the Rockies I think
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: might be interesting. Matthews maybe against the Marlins Castillo. You know,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: if you want to go there, I'd rather use them
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: at home. But uh, I mean pitching up top looks
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: kind of kind of kind of easy to me. McLean
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: and Burns, I think you know, they'll be two popular,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: uh pairings today, especially on DK. I think, uh, you
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: could see Harrison in there as well. But man, I
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: think McLean and Burns. I don't think you can go
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: wrong with either one of these two.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you there.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: Harrison's not it for me here just because I like
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: Burns and McLean's that much more. On DraftKings are all
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: similarly probably similarly enough, where for me it's pretty simple
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: slate for pitching. I like the two guys up top
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: a lot, and then there's three guys down low that
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: I like who you mentioned as well, Dolander, Malazinsky, and
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: uh Zebby. I think there's other guys you can play,
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: but for me, I'm probably gonna narrow in on those
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: five guys. Burn and mc Burns and McLain just two
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: really really good young arms. I don't love the matchup
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: for either, specifically for Burns, but both of these guys
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: are good enough and have high enough strikeout upside, where
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: As you said, I don't think you can really go
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: wrong with either of them. And then the cheaper guys
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: are all just too cheap. So like, if you want
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: to you know, stack an expensive athletics team or another
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: expensive stack, you might need one of those cheaper arms,
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: and I think they all are too cheap. I don't
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: like any of them as much as mclin or Burns,
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: but any one of them might be needed again if
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: I want to spend up on bats. So yeah, pretty
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: nice like variety of pitching options. I personally don't see
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: much in the mid tier that I like. I like
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: those cheap guys and them spending up.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, like with Matzinski there against the Rockies,
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: and he's gonna come in expected to be the bulk
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: reliever there. So I think I mean that that guy,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: as cheap as he is, I think he's he's interesting.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: I think, uh, you know, as you mentioned to Zebbie,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Matthews against Miami is interesting. I think that's kind of
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: a risk. I believe he started out the miners, he started,
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: but he's got the Yeah, he does have the strikeout upside.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: I think he's this might even be his first start
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: of the year. I think it's had a handful stars.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: He's been in the miners and not very good at
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: the miners.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's so. That's I mean, I mean, hey, the Marlins,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: you know, quietly, you know, the day before put up
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: a stinker. Yesterday they uh they were actually pretty good.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: So uh, don't mile Marlins. You know, the Marlins, and like,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: you know, you look at it too, you know, you
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: look at like the Marlins, the Pirates. You know, we're
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: getting into like the White Sox, like these are up
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: and coming young teams that when you look at their lineup,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: you're just like, man, there ain't really too much name recognition.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: I know it's hard for people to click on them
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: kind of you know, kind of stacks, so you know,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: but uh yeah, I don't mind. But pitching overall, like
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: I said, I think it's pretty top heavy. I think
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: those guys are going to be fairly chalky today too,
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: up at the top, rightfully, So I think there's different
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: ways to get different with h with bats today. So
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: I'm not really too concerned about it. I just think
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: those guys are so good to strike out percentages there.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: I don't think there's really any reason to get overly
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: cute with it today. But uh, I mean yeah, if
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: you if you want to play a high priced stack,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: you more likely may have to h pay down for
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: some pitching. I think I would just kind of mix
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: that up a little bit. But uh yeah, I mean overall,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: I think pitching, like you said, is fairly cut and dry. Yeah,
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: he's your favorite.
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: I would say probably McClain because he's cheaper, and I
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: feel this spot is a little bit safer, but not
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: that I think, you know, I don't go out of
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: my way to pick on the Tigers either. He's just
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: good enough where I think that he's probably too cheap
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: for any spot. Yeah, I'm with you, Like it does
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: seem to me like if you can fit McLean and Burns,
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: just play them. You might not be able to, and
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: I think there's other viable options, but ideally I would
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: just be playing McLean and Burns because those are the
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: two best arms here.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: McLean. Like I said, I'd pick on the Tigers right now.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: They just have not been have not been good at all.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: But so ye too, right, it is what it is.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: I think both of them up top are good.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: Carpenter's out right.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's been on the al.
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's been on the ale for like a week
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: or something. I don't know when he's coming back.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: All right, let's uh, let's roll through these games here.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: We got the first one at the twelve thirty five start,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: we got the Rockies and Pirates here. We got Dolander
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: against Carmen Maladzinski here. But with the Rockies, you know,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: I I think, I mean, they got a low run total.
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: I'm not interested in any Rockies against against Carmen and
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: the opener there. I mean, I think interesting what could
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: be interesting are the Lefties for the Pirates. Dolander hasn't
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: been very good against against Lefties. I think O'Neill cru
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: is a really good spot. I like him today. I
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: think Brandon Lows in a pretty good spot. Ryan o' hearn,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: all them Lefties, I think you're in a pretty good spot.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: So I definitely like the Lefties. I was waiting to
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: see if that lineup's been confirmed yet. But O'Neill crue
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: is expensive, but man, I mean he's he's in a
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: really good spot. Pirates pretty heavy favorite today, so uh yeah,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: I don't mind the Pirates. Maybe even like maybe even
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: like a mini type stack today I think would be interesting,
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: But I really like the Pirates. I'd probably put that
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: the Pirates of the Lefties are probably one of the
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: best spots in the entire slate today against Dolander, but
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: uh yeah, I mean Lefties for sure for me, top
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: one of my better stacks today.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't love I don't like the Rockies really
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: at all.
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: I don't love the Pirates, considering there's some other teams
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: I like more on this slate, but I don't think
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: Dolander's an ace and I'm not afraid of the Rockies Bullpen,
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: so I get the case for him for sure. I
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: think for me, I'd more likely use them as like
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: mini stacks. We'll see how their lineup shakes out. But yeah,
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: I get to Pittsburgh side for sure. Like I'm interested
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: in Dolander because he's so cheap and has shown upside
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: and he's away from cores, but that doesn't mean I
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: think he's something special. So yeah, I could see Pittsburgh
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: getting to him here.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's he's been terrible against Lefty so far. But yeah,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: I think I think the Pirates for me, I think
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: you'll probably get them lower owned. I mean they're priced
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: up a little bit. I mean, with all that said,
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: I think you know, I put them up higher up
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: in my stack rankings today, that's for sure. The uh
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: next game we got here Nats in Red's I think
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: this one is interesting from the red side of things
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: here today against Foster Griffin. But yeah, I'm not really
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: interested in going up against Chase Burns. That Washington bullpen
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: obviously isn't very good. I think salth Stewart's in a
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: pretty interesting spot here today. Kids come out of the
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: gate here and been lightening it up. You got a
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: couple of cheap bats at the bottom part there of
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: that lineup, But man, I think the Reds are a
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: pretty good spot. We definitely we definitely like the park,
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: that's for sure, home run, small American ballpark out there,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: But man, I like the Reds. I'd say the Reds
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: are also a top stack for me today. I put
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: him in my top three or four today. So but yeah,
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: Sal Stewart for sure in a pretty good spot. I'm
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: not really interested, like I said, going against Burns. Maybe
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: you could get some leverage there if you wanted to,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: if you wanted to take that risk. That's not for me.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: But yeah, Reds are looking pretty strong.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the Reds look good here.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: I'm not afraid of Griffin, even though he's been good,
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: still a guy I think you can pick on in
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: this ballpark. And I probably have slightly more interested than
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: that's if I were like multi entering and playing.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: A bunch of lineups just because Burns.
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: Can't give up power and this Nationals lineup has been
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: really good against Righty's, so you got a ton of
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: leverage there, as you mentioned, But like, yeah, to your point,
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: they don't look as good on paper as a bunch
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: of other teams, because Burns is really good and I'm
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: on the burn side, the leverage point is real, and
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: the Reds look good here. You got Dane Meyers, who
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: you know, there's pinch hit risk in this lineup, but
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: if they get to Griffin then you're not worried about it.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: And the guys that are or who could get pinch
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: hit for are cheap. So yeah, I could definitely get
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: on board with the Reds here.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: They look good.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, Sale Stewart, I've just been surprised what
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: that kids look like so far, you know, coming out
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: of the gate. Definitely a good protective bat for Ellie,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: that's for sure. But yeah, Red's looking good. They're in
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: the top of the team totals today, you know, early
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: type game. Yeah, and that NAT's bullpen has just been
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: absolute garbage. So definitely one we like to attack. We'll
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: move on to the next one. Here, my Tigers going
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: up against Nolan McClain and the Mets here in New York,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: which normally isn't a stadium that I like to play
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: bats in. But I mean I can't really play any
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: of these Tigers against McClain. I mean, I guess if
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: you wanted to look at, you know, one of the lefties,
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: maybe with some power if you were looking for, you know,
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: looking for any kind of leverage, maybe Riley Green McGonagall
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: something like that. It's just really not for me. But
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Tiger's got a pretty low team total to day. On
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: the other side, you got Kyder Mataro going up against
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: the Mets. I mean, want Soto is always in play.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: The Tigers bullpen has not been very good here recent times.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: I just don't really have any love for the Mets
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: because overall they just have not been hitting good so
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: far to start this season. And Matt I you know,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: I say it all the time. I just, you know,
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: don't like to play teams that are in the bottom
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: of the hitting statistics for the last couple of weeks
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: and especially for the season. The Mets are definitely there.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: The Tigers are definitely there. I mean, we got a
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: low total in this game. So for me, I mean,
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: I guess maybe if you want to pluck some one
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: offs you could do so maybe if you want to
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: stack up the Mets, I could. I could see that.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: But I just don't like the park and I think
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: there's other spots that we can attack.
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you here.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: I mean Montero, I don't think is like very good,
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: but he's not a gas can either, so I'm not
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: like needing to stack against him. And then with this lineup,
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: I like their young cheap guys. Ben's up top leading
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: off and Ewing hitting eighth. Ewing massive steel upside, just
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: stole a ton of bags in the minors last year,
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: fast as hell. Yeah, I could see using one off
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: from the Mats many stacks, but I don't know. I'm
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: not really interested in full stacking either side of this game. Obviously, Detroit,
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: no thanks. If I were playing one of Detroit or Washington,
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: it would easily be Washington for me. I think their
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: lineups better right now, has higher upside, and I think
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: that you know, Burns is the more likely pitcher to
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: give up home runs. So yeah, all at all not
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: in an offense in this game.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, Matt, you're talking about the Nats. I
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: mean the Nats are second in ops and all of
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: baseball in the last couple of weeks compared to two
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: teams that are sitting at the bottom. I mean that
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: to me, that's like the easy deciding factor. I mean,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: do you want to play a team that's hitting or
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: do I want to play a team that sucks balls, so,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: you know, pretty easy for me. But all right, let's
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: move on to the next one. Here we got the
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Marlins and Twins. This series has definitely been interesting so
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: far as far as the FS perspective goes. It seems
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: like the Marlins have been fairly chocked hockey here in
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: recent times. You got Zebbie Matthews against Braxton Garrett. You know,
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: I think this one's interesting from the Twins perspective. I
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: think the Twins are art in a bad spot here
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: today against Braxton Garrett lefty there, you know, I definitely
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: like some of the righty's. Jeffers is interesting for me.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: Of course, Buxton is in a pretty good spot, So
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: you know, I think the Twins are a team that
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: I might look at today. I mean, if you want
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: a little bit of leverage against Zebbie Matthews, who you know,
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: overall isn't really the greatest, you know, I don't mind.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: You know, somebody like Kyle Stowers, maybe Liam Hicks, you
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: could go that route. But I think the Twins stand
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: out a little bit more for me, especially the righties.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: And I think Jeffers is a guy maybe i'd call
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: even at a home run today.
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I actually see it a little bit reversed, just
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: very similarly, just reversed. I like the Marlins side a
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: little bit more. I'm more likely to use Zebbi than Braxton,
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: I think. But Garrett's been good in the minors so far.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's an arm that we know is talented.
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: He missed all of last year, but prior to that,
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: like he's a talented arm.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: I don't really want to pick.
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: On him, not that I think like he's some sort
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: of ace or anything like that. I just feel like Zebby,
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: even though he has strike even though he has higher
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: strikeout upside, which is why I'm interested in him at
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: sixty two hundred, he can also give it up. So
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: the Marlins here are cheap. They got it done last night.
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: The top of the lineup, though, didn't really do much,
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: so I think you can go right back to those guys.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: Edwards, Lopez, Stours, Marcy Miami looks good here.
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: Not great hitting weather in this spot, so you know,
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: that might keep me away from it. But it doesn't
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: look like there's many good hit many good spots rating
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: on this slate in general, so beggars can't really be choosers.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: So all in all, like, I like both of these stacks.
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: I like Miami a little bit more.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Ricky will give Ricky a little credit there about
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: the wind blowing in like twenty, it's like sixteen seventeen
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: miles an hour blown across the field from what I'm
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: seeing from right to pretty much from right field all
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: the way across like the third base. So yeah, definitely
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: some wind heavy you know games there. But you know,
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: I don't say I love it. Ain't the top of
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: my fucking you know stack rankings today, neither one of
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: these teams, you know, I think the Twins, you know,
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: i'd have rank just a little bit higher, just because
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: we don't know what we're gonna get out of Braxton Garrett.
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: We don't know how long we're gonna get them. I
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: think that's kind of what you know when I'm looking
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: at You're right, Garrett's definitely got a was a decent
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: prospect until he got hurt. But uh, yeah, no worry, Ricky.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: We know sixteen seventeen twenty, it's all the freaking same,
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: But you know it ain't the same when you got
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: the misman throwing one oh five instead of one hundred.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: That one oh five I've had baseball players, you know,
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: tell me that I've seen. I've never seen anything faster
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: than like eighty something in my life, but I mean,
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: like a ninety ninety five, like even that five mile
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: an hour difference, Matt, I've been I've heard, so I
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: can't imagine what one O five. It probably looks like
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: a damn pee coming at you, but uh yeah, I
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: wouldn't want to hit that, man. Even if you hit it, like,
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: I still feel like the vibration going through my arms
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: would hurt for a week.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: It's just specially when you got major league guys just
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: unable to touch it, you.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: Know, right, and they're like bragging about it, like they
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: never really do that kind of shit. But I mean,
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: I thought a roll as Chapman was bringing it, the
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: miss is bringing it. I don't know. Hopefully he didn't
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: get hurt himself too bad yesterday, but uh yeah, that
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: kid's it's fun to watch. It's definitely fun to watch.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: But speaking of the Brewers and the mis Man, they
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: got a game here with the Padres at home. They
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: got Kyle Harrison up on the mound against Griffin Canning. Brewers.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: For me, you know, I don't I don't think either
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: one of them are all that great greatest spot here today,
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: I mean both of them. I mean, Brewers got a
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: definitely a higher run total. I mean, I think if
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: you wanted to go after the Brewers, Padre Bullpen has
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: been pretty good, and it's been pretty good for a
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: few years. But I mean you can always look at
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: some brew crew. They're always stealing bags, doing all the
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: little things as far as DFS purposes to help you out.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: But I don't have the brew Crew at the really
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: top of my rankings here today. I kind of got
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: in the middle of the road. But yeah, I mean,
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: interesting game all around with game total eight, But do
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: you see it any differently? And I do is anything
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: stand out to you? Maybe some one offs?
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah I want to like this game more than I
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: do or something like that, because Canning, I don't know,
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: man like I feel like he's got talent, but he
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: gets crushed by lefties. Milwaukee has shown upside this year,
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: so I kind of like them mostly one offs though,
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: like Terrain, we'll see what this lineup looks like. And
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: then San Diego, man, they've been it's weird to see
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: that they're winning the NL West. They've got one of
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: the best records in baseball, because it seems like they've
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: been so disappointing from a DFS perspective. I mean, this
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: is a team that's just hard to roster. So now
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: you get them against a good pitcher in Harrison, it's
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: tough to get there, man, like it really is. I
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: want to make a case for San Diego. You know,
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: they got a bunch of good righties, but they haven't
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: been great this year and Harrison has been.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: Good, So yeah, I can't do it. Go ahead, Sorry,
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: hit the homer.
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: Tatisa is not homer yet, but he's been hitting the
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: ball hard, so I'm not afraid to play him. His
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: price DAG keeps falling. Uh yeah, I mean I don't
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: think you're crazy to play a couple of San Diego
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: bats on this slate, That's all I say.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't mind a couple of missing one offs.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: I know, I see Sean here saying Padre is such
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: a poverty franchise, you know they you know, it's just
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: they went out and made that big push there and
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: when they signed Manny and to tease traded for him
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: and all that, and then it just seemed like, you know,
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: they went for it. Now they're just kind of like
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: hiding in the shell or something like. It's just I
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: don't know, It's kind of like the Bengals, Like you know,
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: Bengals get these good talent and then they just don't
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: like seem to follow through and put anything around. It's
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: like Barry Sanders, like get the guy Damn Lineman once
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: in a while, geez oh peaked.
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I feel like the Padres straddle the fence
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: a lot. Like they trade for Sodo, then they trade
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: away Soto, like they trade for Cease, then they let
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: Cease go.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: So like they have like they traded for Mason Miller.
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: So I can't say that they haven't done anything, but
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: in the same token, it feels like they take three
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: steps forward, two steps back, or sometimes two steps forward
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: three steps back, you.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: Know, I will say though, you know, there's been a
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: dfact I think a couple of years ago. It was
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: the Fan Dual Baseball Final I believe was in San Diego,
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: and we got to stay at the hard Rock right
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: next to the stadium there, and that was pretty cool
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: experience getting to hang out down there. Padre's game, I
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: think they had like a little porch that we sat
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: out in left field. It was a good time. I know,
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: FanDuel did a pretty good job. But San Diego's I
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: mean it's it's a beautiful town, beautiful place, but uh
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: the sports teams, you know, not not.
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: My favorite city in the country.
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: I think, yeah, it's great for people watching too. It
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: was pretty good, but you know, the women there, the
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: ten's there just walking around like they're they're they're just
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: coming out of the woodworks over there. But uh, we
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: got move We'll move on the next game.
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: Here.
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: We've got the Mariners and Astros. We got Lewis Castillo
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: against Mike Burrows. I think the Mariners definitely stand out today.
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: I mean anytime we've been picking on the Astros seems
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: like in picking on that bullpen most of the season
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: so far, and rightfully so, they've been absolutely terrible. And
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: then on the other side, I think your Don Alvarez
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: has got to be one of the top bats here today.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: Uh so I definitely like me some Jordon, but man,
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: I think overall, Seattle is in a pretty good spot.
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: You know, I don't know. I think the big dumper
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: may have hurt himself yesterday, so I'm not sure if
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: Kyle Riley will be in there today. It doesn't look
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: like he's going to be. But you know, Luke Railey's
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: been raking. I definitely like him. Josh Naylor's been pretty good.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: Kate percentage is pretty low for Burrows on the left side,
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: he's up at twenty six percent on the right side.
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: He's been getting buriled up by lefties. So guys like Crawford,
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: even Cole Young bottomlet lineup, Naylor, Brandon Donovan up at
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: the top. I think are all interesting. I'd put the
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: Marlins up there, or Mariners I'm sorry, up in the
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: top of my stack rankings here today. Definitely like them
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: a little bit more than I do the Astros. But
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: I think the Astros are definitely in play against Lewis Castile.
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: He's not generally as good as he is at home.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: On the road, he's you know, the strikeouts have been down.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: But Jordon for me stands out. For the Astros. I
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: think that is a premium play. Is that cool would
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: be interesting as well, But yeah, Mariners for me stand out.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: I think they got Riley there in the projected lineup,
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: but I think I think he heard himself yesterday or
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: did something tweak something yesterday, so I don't think he'll
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: be in there. But still I still think they're a
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: strong play today.
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the only thing I'm worried about with Seattle is
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: their ownership. Like, I think they're gonna be by far
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: the highest own team. SIMS love them here. They're cheap,
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: there's expensive pitching, like, there's not much not to like,
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: and the field knows it. So I like them a
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: lot too. There's nothing not to like. They have the
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: highest team total on the slate. Sabers loves them. No
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: matter where you look, they're gonna look good. But I
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: don't know if I want to ride ownership on Seattle here.
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: That's really all it is for me though, Like they
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: look really good. You can certainly play them and get
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: different elsewhere. And as I always say, with spots like this,
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: or I usually say, I think you can build good
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: lineups with the Mariners and without the Mariners, there's other
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: there's plenty of other good spots to go to.
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: But the Mariners do look like probably the best. So
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: do with that info what you will.
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Like Ricky said, Nads and I were talking yesterday, Man,
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: we thought the dumper was was heart just didn't seem
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: like himself so far this year. And it's gotta be
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: tough because he, like we were saying, he's just he's
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: behind the plate almost every night. I mean, that's got
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: to be one of the toughest jobs in all the sport,
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: that and being an NHL goalie, just getting constantly pounded on.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: But uh yeah, no, thank them needs. They're taking a beating.
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: You're getting hitting the thighs and you know, shoulders with
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: the ball and all that shit. But uh yeah, I
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: think Mariners are in definitely in a pretty good spot.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I don't know why, but Jordon stands out
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: to me today. I just, you know, if I want
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: to maybe throw in a home run parlay today, I
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: think Jordan's gonna have to be a part of it,
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: that's for sure. I mean he's looking, Yeah, he looks
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: pretty strong today.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: I love the astros here.
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: I didn't even talk about them, but I Luis Castillo
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: is not it anymore. And this is a guy that
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: was an ACE for years. He's just not that guy anymore.
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: You see this often with starters in MLB that extend
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: their careers that just don't have the stuff they used
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: to have.
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: Sad to see.
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: Sometimes we're approaching that point with Castillo here. Now you
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: don't get a great Houston lineup, so maybe one offs
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: are better or mini stacks, but they're cheap also, So
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: like I could see fully stack in Houston in this spot,
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: I like them. Castillo on the road, Sign.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: Me up, Yeah, I Castillo on the road. I mean,
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: like I said, he seems to be better at home whenever,
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: you know, and he's just a guy like Castille's. He's
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: not even a pitcher that you know, he's he's hard
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: to roster, especially when you got some decent guys that
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: have strikeout upside, just because I mean, his strikeouts have
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: been way to I remember, you know, them putting up
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: the k's up there in right field all the time.
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: For him at home, I mean, he'd be moaning dudes down. Yeah,
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: we walk in his swag around the hill, you know.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: I Mean it's just.
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: He wasn't like he wasn't like ever the best pitcher
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: in baseball, but he was like a consistent, like top
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: ten guy for a few years.
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely, yeah for sure. But the big game here
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: on the slate as far as totals go, what do
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: we got here? We got the A's and Cardinals. A's,
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: you know, been in a good spot obviously in that
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: cracker Jack Ballpark they got out there. The Cardinals obviously
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: in the same part we got Lopez. McGreevy. I'm not
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: really worried about either of these two pitchers. I think
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: both teams are in decent spots. I prefer the A's today.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: I do like the A's, I like the the ritings especially.
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: I think Rookers in a pretty good spot here today.
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: Kurt's in a good good spot. I think that rookie
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: they got Henry Bolt pretty good value. I think yesterday
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: was two for two coming up. I think it was
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: he was twenty five hundred or something on there. They
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: got him in the middle of that lineup, so I
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: think he's interesting. Today. Geelas been hitting pretty well, so
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: I think the A's are interesting against the Cards. I
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: put them up in one of my favorite stacks today.
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: Herrera's in a pretty good spot for the Cardinals on
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: the other side. But yeah, I think I liked the
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: A's more. But can you talk to me in any
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: of these cards.
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: I can, But I'm also with you that I like
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: the A's more. McGreevy is a guy that I've been
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: picking on and it hasn't worked. His underlying numbers are
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: just so much worse than his actual numbers. Either he's
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: just gonna keep getting by with smoking mirrors or regressing's
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: gonna hit him hard, and this is a good spot
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: for it to hit him hard. So I like the
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: A's more. But yeah, I mean, the Cardinals lineup is good.
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: They run and Lopez he's struck out a ton of
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: guys last year, but he's not doing that this year.
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: So anytime you let the ball be put in play
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: in this park, it's a recipe for disaster. I do think, though,
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: like the field sees this as mcgree is better than
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: Lopez because he's having a better year, all his numbers
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: are better, makes sense. I view it as reverse though,
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: because all of Lopez's underlying numbers or most of them,
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: are better than the greevy's. So yeah, I see this
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: kind of opposite the field, even though both teams will
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: get love. So yeah, this is definitely a game for offense.
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: I like the A side slightly more.
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I just I think with the A's
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: and you look at McGreevy, he's he's been pretty good
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: at the righty's twenty eight percent K percentage is almost
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: half of that. For lefties, he's at fifteen percent. It's
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: hard hit rates up a little high, eleven percent. It's
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: at eight and a half percent against righty, so he
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: has been getting hit. Fly ball percentage almost twenty eight percent. Uh,
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: kind of mid ground ball lean a little bit more
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: to the right side. But yeah, I think the lefties
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: are interesting. Rooker, I'd kind of include him in there.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: Like I said, Bolt, I think it's interesting thing. But yeah,
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: I mean a's highest team total on a slate today.
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: Definitely the optos They are going to like some a's,
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: that is for sure. Yeah. I mean I was gonna say.
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: The only reason the optimizers and stuff like Seattle a
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: lot more than the A's because the a's are super expensive,
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: so you cannot really fit all the a's you want
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: with Burns in the clean you can with Seattle, especially
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: Rally's already really cheap, but if you take him out,
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: they're going to be even cheaper. So I think Seattle
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: is going to be higher on than the A's personally.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like I said, I think there's some pretty good
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: options though. For offense, you know, I think, you know,
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: there's there's a lot of stacks that all kind of
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: grade out, like in a similar type bucket. I wouldn't
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: even say the top stack, you know, which could you
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: could argue, could be the A's you could argue, you know,
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: I kind of like the Pirates the Left, You like
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: the Reds, the Reds.
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: I think there's all kinds of good spots here today
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: to kind of get different with with your bats, and
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: you know, maybe get different with a little one off.
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: You know that Henry Bolt I think is a great
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: one off, as cheap as he is. You know, the
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: kid was stealing bags, had some power. I think he
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: had ten or eleven homers so far this year in
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: the minors. So definitely a kid that's got some potential.
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: I know I used him yesterday and my fan duel lineups,
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: but yeah, I mean, definitely interesting slate man. Before we
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: run out of here, I just got to mention real
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: quick that we are turning three years old. We are three.
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: I can't believe it, Matt. I mean, we time flies
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: when you're having fun. But guess what you get to
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: join for free and you get a master's we are
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: you know, we got a major week this year, a
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: week in golf that you can check out. We got
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: the showdown that goes on every day throughout the golf tournament.
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: Make sure you guys go to check it out. I mean, hey,
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: if you got some friends that are dabbling in DFS,
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: I think it's a great opportunity just to kind of
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: give them, like the tutorials that are there, everything that
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: you can check out. So make sure you know, pass
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: the word around. We're pretty excited about it'll be in
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: our birthday. Who an excited about when it's your birthday?
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: But yeah, that's definitely something we've been pretty happy about here, Matt.
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: But man, you let's let's give out our top three
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: stacks here. Let's give out our what do we think,
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: who our favorite pitching combinations are? Who we like there?
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: And then let's maybe give a home run call for
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: the people before we run out of here.
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: All right, favorite stacks. We will go with the.
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: We will go with the a's, we'll go with the.
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: Reds, and we'll go with the astros.
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: H And I can't remember what else except for the
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: home run and I'm gonna go with I'm with Ricky
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: Rose here also, so I think this guy hits a couple,
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: that's Fernando Tatis.
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: Oh, Matt is Colin the guy at his first If
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: you he it's a homer today, I be I'm gonna
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: be sending you a message like right away, you you
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: you save Fernando to tease he like he's really you
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: know sometimes when you're lining it up. I mean, you know,
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: maybe he's just uh, I mean, hey, he's seeing the ball,
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: you see. I used to, like, you know, a lot
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: of times i'd follow walk percentages. If I saw a
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: guy was walking more in recent times than he normally does.
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: I kind of figured he was seeing the ball better, Matt,
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: and I was like, I'll jump on this guy.
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: Maybe that is something that I follow a lot also
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: because that I think that is true. Not always, like,
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: of course, some guys are just gonna luck themselves into walks,
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: but in baseball, I think that's a really good way
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: to know if someone is starting to see the ball well.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: Like right absolutely, yeah, I mean, you know, if you
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: just you just follow teams, I like the glance over stats,
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: you know, go for like the last two weeks and
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: you see a guy that's you know, walk rates up,
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: you know, you know, twenty, you know, in just the
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: last couple of weeks from where he is. I mean,
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: it's definitely something to pay at ten. And I mean, hey,
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: that's kind of coming to some of the things that
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: we like to we like to kind of share as
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: we go through, you know, the slates and little tidbits
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: here and there. I mean, there's so much information about
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: baseball that I mean, more so than any other sport.
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, the stats are absolutely insane for baseball, but
• 37:18
