0:51
to five pm or seven to eight pm Eastern and then you have a two
0:55
hour window whatever you want, one game later, MLB NB plenty of money
1:00
being made. Time to build a PGA lineup tonight as well. We got
1:03
you cover at chippinnation dot com. Bring in my man, g rising first
1:07
for the six You said I'm a sleigh playing my deep yesterday. Do you
1:11
rise it on fire right now? Baby? Are you doing on this Wednesday
1:15
afternoon? But hey, I'm not having a good Wednesday afternoons. Our boy
1:19
Reo man crushing it last night in the NBA streets. Love to see it,
1:25
So I gotta give a shout out to our boy Rio. Congrats still
1:27
crushing it over there in NBA. So uh, it's good to see.
1:32
But man, title, we lost the game today. We lost twenty percent
1:34
of our slate already with the Tigers and Mets getting rained out. But we
1:38
got for a gamer here today. But you might do this one pretty quick.
1:42
But I think we can get through it. I think we can figure
1:46
out how we're gonna get to the top and get us up at the top
1:49
where it says ship it. We're gonna have us a little safety meeting.
1:53
I got a high noon, I'm ready to roll. Let's do it.
1:57
Let's do this, baby. I might have one after safety meeting. Man
2:00
is no high Newton after this show, little salvatory before the big boys slate
2:04
starts. Lyle in here, Gator in here. I did see that.
2:07
Ryan Jeffers went deep. I did see that. Unfortunately, Richie Small's in
2:12
here as well. Appreciate everyone hanging out, like we always say, like
2:14
fun helps us out a ton. Subscribe button helps us out a ton as
2:17
well. If you want to join us at the Nation first, if you
2:21
want to join all the sports, yeah, shout out Rio. Seventy thousand
2:23
dollars in the NBA streets still get NBA prizes. People taking off or quitting,
2:28
whatever it may be. We're still grinding over here. I'm in the
2:30
streets all the time. Cash Report, Core, Slate plan, everything's still
2:34
Premium projections updated throughout the night. We just transition MBA shows to MLB.
2:39
So if you still want rio slate plan all of our NBA content, all
2:44
of our PGA content, MMA content, NHL content, NASCAR content, we
2:49
all have you convert atschip Innation dot com. No better price in the industry
2:53
can make the price even better. Hoop fifteen on monthly, six month or
2:57
annual packages bring it down and then weekly does not have any package you cannot
3:01
use hoop fifteen. Excuse me, we have a weekly package. You can't
3:06
use hoop fifteen and it does not come with the discord. But if you
3:08
want to check us out, see what we have on the site for a
3:10
week the lowest price, and then see if you want to go the monthly,
3:14
six months whatever it may be. We do also have a weekly option
3:17
for olbur content on the site. If you just want MLB only for the
3:21
year, use that code MLB fifteen thirty nine dollars a month. Without using
3:25
the code, it brings you about a dollar a day season two hundred twenty
3:30
nine bucks. I think it's like one hundred and ninety five dollars. After
3:31
you use the promo code MLB fifteen. It feels like MLB is going on
3:36
over half the year, one hundred and ninety five bucks for plenty of months.
3:38
Projections, ceiling rate or pitcher rankings, stack rankings, hitter rankings,
3:43
core reports, discord everything again you need in the MLB streets, We have
3:47
you covered. You just do an MLB in the summer. MLB only,
3:51
we gotcha. You want PGA, MMA, NBA, all of the other
3:54
sports. Hoop fifteen is the move fifteen percent off. And I'll go broad
4:00
slate overviews quickly and then I'll throw it two before you go pitchre game by
4:03
game, and yeah, it's very easy to go a broad slate overview.
4:08
So there's no Mets in Detroit game the second day in a row. It
4:11
got postponed, So five games onto four games Colorado Chicago. If you weather
4:15
again just like yesterday, snowing, raining, cold, that game could get
4:21
scratched. Maybe Roth has it as orange yellow, just be cautious with it.
4:26
Obviously a lot of morning games had weather as well. That game's at
4:30
seven to forty eastern, which the slate locks at six forty five eastern,
4:33
So four games without the Mets Detroit, that Colorado game, and Chicago as
4:39
weather maybe three games. And as far as ownership, I mean it's easy.
4:44
On DKA, I know you play a lot on FanDuel DK last now,
4:46
Mitch Keller, that'll be the popular pairing. Last now far and away
4:50
the most popular pitcher on the slate. As far as stacks, I mean
4:55
everyone's gonna jam. I think Pittsburgh. Look at the team totals on the
4:58
slate, five point one for Pittsburgh, five for Houston, five point two
5:01
for the Dodgers, and Pittsburgh's by far the cheapest of all three of those
5:05
stacks to fit a glass now, et cetera, so easy to get different.
5:10
I think on this light Keller glass now Pittsburgh on DraftKings the chalk,
5:14
and then on FanDuel one pitcher site glass now far and away only ten k
5:18
stands out in the tier of his own. I still think Pittsburgh gets ownership.
5:23
Some of these astros are a little cheaper on fair like, none of
5:26
them above four K, your Doong Talker, Altuve. They're gonna get some
5:30
ownership the astros a little more on fan duel any broadside overviews, the show
5:33
is obviously gonna be probably a little quicker than usual if people have questions.
5:38
You can can bring it up. Yeah, if you want to talk a
5:40
little football, Stefan Diggs of the Texans, Yeah, I mean we have
5:43
plenty of time. But broadside overview before you go, Pitcher, Yeah,
5:47
hey, I mean you pretty much hit the nail on the head there and
5:51
going off you know path a little bit there to digs to the Texans.
5:55
When I saw that, I stop. Man, at least they're getting that
5:57
kid c J. Stroud some uh, you know, some weapons there to
6:00
deal with so they can build a little offensive line there. You still need
6:04
time to throw the ball to get those guys open. But man, what
6:08
a? What a? What a? I mean it kind of sucks because
6:10
you know, if you you got like Tank Dell and you're you know,
6:13
in your your dynasty leagues, you're like, oh, man, I got
6:15
the man. You know, now all of a sudden, I mean,
6:17
now he's gonna be single covered down the field though, Nico and him,
6:20
they'll be running, they'll be running loose. I mean that seems nasty.
6:25
Yeah, it's gonna get interesting. It's definitely gonna get interesting. I just
6:28
said, there's now there's three miles to feed over there, though. But
6:31
yeah, man, we love some football over here at ship It. But
6:34
you know, going to what you're saying, you know, with the with
6:38
these games you talked about the uh the team totals there, with the Dodgers
6:43
being on top, I mean, but they got a tough match up with
6:45
that kid, that that Kyle Harrison kid. I mean this guy, I
6:48
mean, he's definitely a tough matchup. I just I couldn't roster him because
6:51
they're playing the Dodgers. Mookie smacks left, He's like, no tomorrow and
6:55
him mean he's seeing beach balls right now. So definitely don't want to be
6:59
playing against Mookie uh at this point. And you know Smith's been hitting the
7:02
ball really well, so really not interested there. I mean, if you
7:05
wanted to go off path, you know, talking about some of the pitching,
7:09
you know Harrison's yes, you know, the definitely could look at if
7:13
you want. But for me, like you mentioned, Glass now for me
7:15
is a lock on both sides, I'm locking them. I'm fan duel.
7:18
I'll figure out how to get a little bit different with some bats. I
7:21
mean, glass Now's projection is literally just depending on what you're looking at,
7:27
anywhere between you know, seven to eight, ten point different from the second
7:30
you know, guy down, so you know it's glass now just has the
7:34
upside there, you know, definitely if he has you know, forty five
7:38
point night, forty point night, which is definitely doable for him. I
7:42
don't see these other guys really and that that that have good paths to get
7:46
up to that. I mean, the only other guys you know, you
7:48
look at here, they're even viable between you know, Bassett and Javier.
7:51
Xavier kind of started out a little slow, didn't really have his velocity.
7:56
He didn't have too many swing and misses in his first start, so you
7:59
kind of worry about him a little bit. But uh, you know,
8:01
Bassett, he he he just sucks against lefties. And you know, two
8:05
strengths of the Houston astros, Kyle Tucker and Alvarez sitting right up there at
8:07
top of that lineup is definitely two interesting guys. I love me some Kyle
8:13
Tucker tonight, one of my top bats, but I just don't like enough
8:16
of a stack all the way up and down. You did mention Houston's got
8:18
some pretty cheap bats in their lineup. I do agree, Uh they do.
8:24
They don't really have, you know, that high of a k rate
8:28
as far as against UH. With Bassett's bringing to the table. Basst only
8:33
had twenty k rate versus righty's last year twenty four percent against lefties. But
8:37
the hard hit rate against lefties is what stood out for me. But you
8:41
know, I I just going back and forth. I was looking at it.
8:45
Yeah, I think Pittsburgh is going to be kind of popular. I
8:46
think Jake Swinsky's a pretty good play today. Cabrian Hayes has been hitting the
8:50
ball really well. I think that's interesting Rowdy Tlez, but i'd be lay
8:56
caution to him. Pretty big pinch hit risk. We see that quite a
8:58
bit with him over the years. You know, he gets two at bats
9:01
in the game and you know when you need him to get you some points
9:05
there at the end and he gets pinch hit. There's nothing more tilting than
9:07
that. But uh, They're definitely interesting for me today. As you mentioned,
9:11
I think if you're going glass now, I think Pittsburgh's the way to
9:15
go. If you don't have glass now, you best be punching that.
9:18
Mookie Bets and and Dodger stack is You're not going to probably get there if
9:20
you use glass now. So yeah, either way, it's gonna be either
9:24
way. For me, I think I'm just gonna lean the glass Now route.
9:28
If glass Now does get beat up and you go the Mookie Bets route
9:31
and the Dodger route, I think you know that would be a clear path.
9:35
I could see that definitely happening, And you're probably gonna get it pretty
9:37
low owned just because everybody is probably gonna glass Now is going to be over
9:41
fifty percent. I'm gonna assume on both sides, both sides, he'll be
9:48
more on DK because you've got a roster two pitchers, like in the flagship,
9:52
you're probably looking at eighty percent. As my guest today, Yeah,
9:56
I definitely could see that, so yeah, yeah for me, I mean
10:00
some of these other guys, I'm just not interested in down here at all.
10:03
I mean, I'm not interested in Cal Curntrol. I'm not interested in
10:07
Luke Little. That's pretty much a bullpen game. They're talking about Brown coming
10:11
in after him. Uh so that that's interesting. Trevor Williams, No,
10:16
thanks, what about Rown? Right there? On DK? Four K?
10:20
Mind price? Now, obviously there's you have to make sure you'd feel fine
10:24
with the weather it sounds like, and you don't even know Brown's for sure
10:26
to come in so like zero is in the realm. But if you're talking
10:30
twenty fifty one hundred teams on a four game slate like Pitchings, Gross,
10:35
if you go Brown Glass now you can get Dodgers like a five man stack
10:39
that some won't have, et cetera. Because I'm just looking on DK Fandal
10:43
easy Playglass now, if you want to go Keller, Javier or whatever,
10:46
they still have someone of the upside. No need to mess with these,
10:50
Trevor Williams, et cetera. DK, though I want you a little you
10:52
said no, Quantrill, you said no, Trevor Williams. You said no.
10:56
Kyle Harrison. Kyle Harrison's a little interesting on d if you just want
11:00
to get I mean the strikeout prop's good five and a half juice on the
11:03
under, very good k numbers in the miners. I mean, he's a
11:07
leftie and some of the best bats Freddy Freeman. Obviously these guys can hit
11:11
lefties there, but Mono Tani Freddy, there's a lot of lefties in that
11:16
Dodters lineup. Can you make a case stone like seven point I'm trying to
11:20
get different. I know I'm playing Glass now. I like Washington side,
11:22
like we'll get to bats. I think maybe Washington against Chalk Mitch Keller four
11:26
games late, you gotta do something different. I think you can definitely play
11:30
bats against your pitchers. I would rather not go a giant against Glass now,
11:35
but whatever your sp two is, definitely could play a bat against them.
11:37
Just kind of just talking game theory and stuff. Anyone down there that
11:41
you can make a case for. UNDK, you're a mute and what's going
11:46
on? Mall? What's going on? Lance? My stinking dog's barking up
11:52
there. I got some donkey FedEx guy that won't take the hit, Like,
11:54
just drop it on the porch, dude. But anyway, Harrison's interesting.
12:01
I just I just can't stomach that. I just it'd be too hard
12:03
for me to even think about going against the Dodgers. You know. I
12:07
guess if you really wanted to mix it up a little bit, I mean,
12:13
Harrison, you could go with I mean, but to me, I
12:16
would Mitch Keller's my number two guy after after our boy Glass. Now.
12:22
The only reason being is is I mean, you take out just his crappy
12:26
start. You look at these k numbers you got Joey Gallo on the other
12:28
side. Man, that dude's almost two k's within itself, probably three.
12:31
So you know right there, that guy's got a forty two K rate.
12:35
So anytime you know one of your guys is going against Joey, you can
12:39
always count up two k's automatic. So you know that that's something that I
12:43
was just kind of looking at there, you know, I mean, we
12:46
don't got much to pick from. We only got four games, so you
12:48
know, we got thin pickings. But I mean, you could mix it
12:52
up you want, hunter, That brown move is interesting if you want,
12:54
if you wanted to go some Dodgers at that point, you know, I
12:58
don't think too many people will have the stomach to do that. I mean,
13:01
from what I've been kind of seeing, I read in a couple of
13:03
places, you know, they're expecting if he does come out, he could
13:05
get up to sixty pitches, so we could see four or five innings out
13:09
of that guy. He could actually be in line for the win. So
13:11
that's what you'd be hunting for right there in the middle of that game.
13:15
So you know, not too bad there. But yeah, we got some
13:18
rough pickings here tonight. But you know what we still got us. On
13:22
Wednesday night, we got some baseball. I'm not complaining. I'm gonna bowl
13:26
and I'm gonna bowl me another three hundred tonight. Drink some high news,
13:28
have some fans, have a safety meeting, and you know, watching baseball
13:31
be good time. Too bad. My tigers ain't o. You know,
13:35
it's been fun. They're far and out. We don't know what that's like
13:37
around here. The lion's been winning, Tigers are winning. What the hell's
13:41
log seasons the world? It's a little screwed up when that shit's happened,
13:46
and you know that start stuff happening. Yeah, you got Michigan, who's
13:48
good in a lot of sports. Yeah, i mean, Detroit's living life
13:52
over there. So I'll wrap up pitching quick. So in the early site,
13:54
now, good luck Lance, good luck take something down. Collins in
14:00
here, jakeson here, didn't say hi to everyone. Appreciate everyone hanging out.
14:03
So I'm just gonna wrap up pitching my final thoughts blast now, Yeah,
14:07
I mean I lock for me. There's no if you have one hundred
14:09
and fifty lineups, I'm not clicking the lock button. Most people probably twenty
14:13
in below. I'm taking my points moving on. Javier would be my second
14:18
favorite at eight to eight, and there's plenty of salary to make those two
14:20
work. Minus one sixty five favorite against Toronto should have run support behind him.
14:26
No, Chris Bassett. Yeah, Mitch Keller, you'd be my third,
14:30
I guess, but he's tracked like everyone's going Glass Nowa or Glass now
14:33
Keller. If I'm already going, people are gonna go Avier too, Like
14:37
maybe Mitch Keller's thirty five percent Javier's thirty twenty five. I don't know.
14:43
I still prefer Javier. I like going some of these gnats against Keller,
14:46
but if you're not going nats, Keller's interesting to me. No, Kel
14:50
Quantrill, No, yeah, I mean, man, I guess, Kel
14:56
Cuntrell, Trevor Williams. If you had to pick to you Ryzen for me,
15:00
though, Cal Quantrell, if that game does play and you get word
15:03
from Roth and everything, it looks fine. I don't think. I mean
15:05
snowing forty degrees thirty seven, like feeding into the pitchers in that game.
15:11
Cal Cuantra five to three is a punt or Ben Brown, which has a
15:15
very risk to get zero, but he's supposed to be the long reliever and
15:18
at mid price four K. I mean you need one on this leg.
15:22
Seven points could be enough, nine points could be enough depending on what these
15:24
others do. So yeah, my final breakdown glass now all the lineups Javier
15:31
to Keller three, and I guess one of these cubs Ben Brown or Quantrill
15:35
if the game gets the green light because the weather final thoughts, Yeah,
15:39
I mean pretty much you got a spot on. As far as I'm concerned,
15:43
I mean, as you mentioned, I don't I'm really not interested in
15:46
Quantrell at all. I mean, this guy's freaking numbers are terrible last year,
15:50
seven raid against righties, eighteen percent against lefties. I want ten points
15:54
on nine point ye, I mean, I yeah, I get you just
15:58
want some outs there, right, you know, maybe squeak you out a
16:00
win if he gets real lucky, So you know, yeah, that's what
16:04
we're looking for tonight. Right, So if you're gonna go Contral, I
16:07
just go Brown and say, hey, I got a better chance at that
16:11
point. So for me, that's why i'd kind of cancel them. My
16:14
Javier Basset to me, they're kind of in the same boat there. Keller
16:18
was just a little more interesting because I thought you know he's got a little
16:19
bit more strike ut potential there against the Gnats. But I actually think if
16:23
Keller struggling a little bit, the nets were interesting for me, you know,
16:27
transition right into some bats. I think that, Yeah, that gnats
16:32
stack for me, man, I think that's pretty interesting here tonight. Sej
16:34
Abrams, you know, that's definitely an interesting spot at the top of that
16:38
lineup. I think is interesting. And I I just you're trying to look
16:42
at, you know, how to be maybe a little different. You know,
16:45
how many people are gonna feel comfortable clicking on NAT's bats here tonight,
16:49
And I mean, you know it's you know, you're gonna click on Joey
16:52
Gallo and be happy, Eddie Rosario, Winker, Thomas Abrams. You know,
16:56
but you look at the over under in this game is sitting at nonight.
17:00
I mean, there's really not too many other spots to go. We
17:03
look at that Cubs game. It's supposed to be snowing there. It's cold
17:07
as can be, wind blowing in like twenty miles fifteen to twenty miles an
17:11
hour from what I read. I mean, you're really gonna have to get
17:15
one to get one, to get one over the fence over there today and
17:18
Wrigley. So I'm not really interested in any part of those any of those
17:22
guys, So, you know, just to try to be different. I
17:25
think what stands out to me is probably loading up on some gnats. I
17:29
think everybody's gonna go to Dodgers Houston in Toronto. I think that Houston Toronto
17:33
game is going to be really popular. As far as bats, so yeah,
17:37
I think Kyle Tucker's probably going to be the highest done bat on the
17:40
slate in my opinion. So if he talks FanDuel, most people watching g
17:45
guys is talking fandeling. I think it's gonna be glass now on both sites.
17:49
But I do think well, I mean as far as bats, you
17:52
know, Kyle Tucker will probably be the highest don bat I think. Yeah.
17:56
And your dog Gallo is pretty cheap too. On fan duel, Yeah,
18:00
first base, outfield, yeah, touch on, touch on. Some
18:04
of these Pittsburgh bats though, like like O'Neil Kruz, Jackson Winsky, like
18:08
these guys are gonna be popped on all sites. Rowdy Brian Reynolds, I
18:14
mean, they're just so cheap, like the roster construction last now, either
18:17
Keller Javier. I think people will sign at the six hundred savings and then
18:22
Astros, Dodgers, and Pittsburgh the only clear teams in the tier of their
18:26
own in terms of run totals. These guys are so much cheaper Rowdy two
18:29
point, Ak Cabrian Hayes four to four, so Winsky three, Like,
18:33
they're just too cheap compared to you want the Dodgers, Mookie o'tani. It's
18:37
hard to play all of them. So that's why I think Pittsburgh will be
18:41
very popular on most sites, the most popular in dk FanDuel. Maybe more
18:45
Houston a little, maybe more Dodgers. But talk about some of your favorite
18:48
Pittsburgh beats and or do you just want to not eat that chalk if you're
18:52
eating enough chalk? Like if I had to pick right now, I think
18:56
you can get away from Keller. I think you can get away from Pittsburgh
18:59
Bats, maybe some of them whatever, But like, if they're going to
19:02
be that popular, you got to get different on a four games late.
19:04
I'm not getting rid of Gat, I'm not fading last, don't get different
19:07
that way. So I'd rather get different with the Bats personally. But yeah,
19:11
to touch on some of these pick guys. Yeah, I mean Pittsburgh
19:15
stands out just because of their prices, you know, right and they got
19:17
a high team total. As you mentioned earlier, are only three teams over
19:21
five. They're one of the three sitting there at five point zero. So
19:23
I mean, I like Jacksonwinski. He's sitting there in the four hole.
19:27
He's really cheap. Three sixty eight wOBA against Righty's last year, cause Brian
19:33
Hayes been hitting the ball really well so far out the gate. You got
19:34
the O'Neill Cruz. That kid's dynamic. That kid can just smash the shit
19:38
out of ball. As I mentioned, you got that old Wiley veteran to
19:41
Lee's down there home run power. He's already hit one. But the problem
19:47
I have is with him, you know, you always got to be hesitant
19:49
there and think about, you know, could he get pinched hit four?
19:52
But you know, if they get out to a lead, this Washington bullpen
19:55
stinks. So for me, I think, you know, it's the obvious
19:57
spot. It's kind of like a s suation. I was thinking about it
20:00
earlier. It was kind of like last night, right, like the Cubs
20:03
were like staring in the face, like they were basically telling you the Rockies
20:07
suck. They do suck. We got to keep remember they suck. They
20:11
really suck. So to me, you know, like we got to keep
20:15
attacking them kind of spots, you know, even though though we can figure
20:18
out how to be different, like tonight, if you like some pirates,
20:19
don't be afraid to play Jared Turrillo down there in the eighth hole and maybe
20:23
have a little wrap around there. I don't mind that at all. That's
20:26
a good way of getting a little bit different. So, you know,
20:30
don't be afraid of these pirates. I like these pirates in this spot.
20:33
I mean, this bullpen's terrible, so you know, for me, I
20:36
think pirates. Jakes Whisky one of my top bats here today. I definitely
20:40
like him, So yeah, give me some of these pirates. I think
20:42
it's a good spot. Like I said, I like this game stack because
20:47
if Keller just isn't quite right, he's going to be pretty popular, especially
20:48
on DK. And you throw yourself in some of these gnat bats here,
20:52
especially the top of the lineup. CJ Abrams. You know, he's he's
20:57
hell of a player. You got you got Tom Winker, you got Joey
21:00
Gallo. You even got Rosario sitting down there in the seventh spot, so
21:03
I mean, if you really wanted to, you definitely could look at you
21:07
know, some gnats. You know, Myron Kid mentioned Brian Reynolds too,
21:11
absolutely, you know, shit, didn't didn't mean to leave him out.
21:14
He's another great bat in that lineup too, there for the Pirates. But
21:17
yeah, I think this game to me has got you know, maybe it's
21:19
a seven to four games, seven to five game. I think that's what
21:23
that could win, that could win today. So you know, I think
21:26
this game stacks interesting. And you look too, both of these teams,
21:30
both of these teams have played nothing but overs. Not one of these two
21:33
teams games have been under so I think ones like five and O six and
21:37
aller and the other ones five and oh something like that. I looked it
21:40
up earlier, so they've all played over the number both times all their games.
21:45
So I think that on something definitely interesting. I like it. Yeah,
21:48
great info, what's what's going on? Takedown? So my final thoughts
21:52
to wrap up this game, Yeah, I prefer NAT's on DK than fan
21:55
duel because you get way more direct leverage off of Keller because you have to
21:59
play two pitcher, so I will say that to start, But man,
22:03
you can go across Oneil Cruz gonna be way higher on than cj Abrams.
22:07
I'm not saying these guys are None of these Nats are gonna get any ownership,
22:10
and I don't think I think they do get a little steam some of
22:12
these Gnats. I don't think we're gonna be the only ones talking like Wow,
22:15
Keller Chalk SB two clearly looks over own, let's play some. I
22:18
don't think we're gonna be the only ones saying that. It's this earlier in
22:22
the year, So I guess I'll look at ownership and see how much do
22:25
things swing, because in MMA people get sharp like line movement and stuff.
22:29
Sometimes you get surprised with ownership. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on Nats
22:33
ownership and how how much people like leverage. I guess this early in the
22:37
year in baseball, But cj Abrams, easy pivot off the shortstop for chalk
22:41
your cruise, Rowdy tell us first base Joey Gallo in the four hoole,
22:45
easy pivot right there. Who's cheap A bunch of power to strike ups?
22:48
For sure? Maybe if he doesn't strike out though that ball might be going
22:52
a mile deep, So I think he's very interesting. Someone mentioned Keibert Wiez
22:56
at catcher. I think he's also interesting. Is Trey Lipscombe guy third base?
23:00
Can Brian Hayes go on the other side of the Nats so you can
23:03
get a lot of Chalk or Pittsburgh stuff, A lot of good plays on
23:07
that NAT side at the same position. That's how I see A couple of
23:11
my favorites, Layne Thomas, Edie Rosario had good numbers last year against Righty's
23:15
Pittsburgh side Ryan Reynolds. Yet excuse me, Myron mentioned it. I mean
23:22
Asley snash three fifty four, rob the last year two thirty one against Righty's
23:26
in the two hole, so Winsky dominated, Rowdy's got some pop. I
23:30
don't even mind going to the bottom of the order a little bit as a
23:33
wrap round. I guess that's if you want to go Pittsburgh. I think
23:36
you mixed him maybe a Chalky that a couple of chalky went at the top
23:38
of the order. I hope some of these guys down below. People aren't
23:41
gonna play. Henry Davis at catcher, Jerry Turillo at third, et cetera.
23:45
Because they're gonna go Cabrian. That's how I think you can get different
23:48
in Pittsburgh Stacks. We spent enough time on that game, though. Pittsburgh
23:52
Washington an important one to talk about though. Pittsburgh Chalky Washington some leverage off
23:56
of Mitch Keller. Next game, the web game on the slate, Rockies
24:00
Cubs like forty degrees in Chicago, seven over under Caliquantrill, Luke Little on
24:07
the mound, and it looks like again, Luke Little going to Brown is
24:11
a bullpen game, but we do not know for sure about that, but
24:14
I expect Brown to get more the bulk of the innings compared to Little.
24:18
Personally, if you want to play one of them, yeah, I mean,
24:22
I'll throw it to you in this one. I don't want any bets.
24:23
Like I said, I'd rather played Cala Quantrill than some of these Cubs,
24:27
as crazy as that might sound. I'd rather play Brown than these Rockies,
24:30
like I'd rather pretty much every other game on the slate. I don't
24:33
like bats a thirty five degree weather, so anything for you, Yeah,
24:38
I don't either, but you know, let's not be fooled. I mean
24:41
this Rocky team. It sucks. I mean, they are god awful.
24:47
So I mean, hey, I'm starting to kind of lean a little bit
24:51
on the Cubs as I think about it here, because if it does play,
24:55
the Cubs definitely in a neutral weather environment would be probably by are the
25:00
chalkiest team. So you know, we're buying into quite a bit on mister
25:03
Weatherman. And it's late where we really don't see any spots that are really
25:07
standing out to me. So you know, maybe that is a place that
25:12
can be looked at. So don't under I'm just saying, don't undervalue.
25:15
It's not something that I have. You know, really, at this point,
25:18
you're going to change my mind. But you know, the more I
25:22
think about it, I mean, it's definitely a decent way. They put
25:25
up twelve runs last night. Yeah, sure, it's cold, it's windy,
25:29
winds blowing in. But you know, if we if you know,
25:32
if I'm sitting there thinking I need a seven five game, seven four game
25:36
something like that out of that Pittsburgh game, I might be able to get
25:38
five six runs. You may not get homers, but you know, if
25:41
you they can string together six seven at bats in a couple of innings.
25:45
You know, you may be able to get there, you know by u
25:48
double triples. You know, maybe some uh you know, maybe you get
25:52
one lucky Homer. So so you know, I I I'm not really saying
25:56
to wipe that Cub spot completely out just because how bad the Rockies have been.
26:00
Man, they're they are just terrible. So that would be my only
26:04
thing really with that game. I like I said, I don't have any
26:07
interest, you know, because of because of what the weather is. You
26:11
know, Quantrill's really low strikeouts. You know, some of the rightis would
26:15
be interesting over there with you know, top of that line up there for
26:18
the Cubs. You know, it basically got alreadies except Bellinger there. But
26:22
yeah, I mean it could be I could be talked into it probably,
26:26
you know, if somebody really sold me on something there just because it is
26:30
the Rockies. So you know, let's not let's not just totally wave that
26:33
one out. Yeah, yeah, I think that makes sense. I think
26:37
ownership will dictate a lot to that for me. Like if we're off game
26:41
the green light right now of that game, I think some people might think
26:44
the same, Like people are gonna go Dodgers Houston hit Let's get some Cubs
26:48
against an awful Colorado team. It's still gonna be low on though. I
26:52
yeah, the weather stinks right here right now. I can only imagine when
26:56
I'm seeing thirty five snowy, rainy Likewado's bad. They still got some MLB
27:02
players all side against the weather game. But it totally totally makes sense for
27:06
what you're saying. What do you guys give the weather grade? Someone asks
27:10
earlier, So I have zero clue. What I all I do is I
27:12
go to roto grinders Kevin Ross's weather report and how he has it laid out,
27:18
like red is really bad. Orange yellow he has for this game.
27:21
Orange is bad. Yellow feels a little better like Philly, Sincy Casey,
27:25
Baltimore earlier with just orange and Atlanta Chicago. This is orange yellow, which
27:30
is a little better. Find have a grade? I mean, I don't
27:32
know, six out of ten scary, seven out of ten scary. It's
27:36
scary for sure. It's not safe, but it's hard for me to quantify
27:41
that with someone so naive about weather and stuff like that. Novice might be
27:45
the right word. Not an English major either. Yeah, I'm not pretty
27:48
enough to be a weather dude. Let's keep that wrong. Literally got two
27:55
games left on the slates. This one's in a dome. Don't have to
27:57
worry about it. Blue Jay's ass is Chris Bassett, Christian Xavier on the
28:02
mound. You got a nine total in this one. Astros five team total,
28:06
one of the highest on the slates. I mean it's pretty clear on
28:08
the on the Houston side basket good against right he's terrible against lefties. You're
28:15
down Kyle Tucker just staring you in the face in the two three hole.
28:18
I think it's a great mini stack. They still applied five runs though.
28:22
Outside of those two, a Yonder Diaz might get a little ownership. He's
28:26
been really good to start the year. Catcher fills out a pretty bad catcher
28:30
position. So outside of them, though, like I think you're gonna get
28:33
a'l Tuove pretty low own, pregnant at third base, low own, these
28:37
guys at the no one's playing Jose Bray you I don't recommend it either,
28:40
like a Chas McCormick though, in the seventh spot, the leftiest for sure,
28:44
and then if you want a one off a righty or something will be
28:47
pretty low low owned as how I see it. If I had to pick
28:49
a low on step though on this late I already said the Nats, I
28:52
guess, but I don't think Blue Jays are the craziestg rise in. I
28:56
guess. I'll just throw it to you here if you have any interest a
28:59
fly ball pitcher against a big bats bow flad, spring er bar show.
29:03
Like all these guys. I don't even mind Kiermeier down there in the seven
29:07
hole. Hobbier is gonna be the third highest own pitcher on the slate.
29:10
I think so the Keller. Same thing with the Nats. The leverage you
29:15
get it off of Jabber. Toronto's been bad. But man, big big
29:18
bats, some of them are expensive, which you know they have to be
29:21
very low owned guarantee ninth and e at bats in the dome, which is
29:25
good weather right now in April. Third can be talking in a little Blue
29:29
Jays what you got? Yeah, this one was interesting. I went back
29:33
and forth at first, but you know, when I was trying to decide
29:34
which one of these two do I like a little better, I leaned the
29:37
Houston side, just because how good you know Tucker's been so far to start
29:41
out the year. Jordong hasn't done shit, but bass. It's just been
29:45
so bad against the lefties, so that's what kind of stood out. But
29:48
yeah, you know, Obvier didn't start out too well. It had a
29:52
really low swing and striking rate his first start. I think it was,
29:56
you know, blow ten percent for him, which which is kind of low
30:00
for a guy of his strikeout ability. So you know, some of these
30:03
pitchers, they just don't come out firing right away. You know, it's
30:06
like a Keller situation. You know, Hobby is kind of in the same
30:08
boat. So you know, it is interesting kind of looking at some of
30:11
these Blue Jays. You know, I don't mind them all the way up
30:15
and down varshow I think is pretty interesting for a cheap kind of play here
30:18
today, Springer, Guerrero, Braschett. You know, I don't mind the
30:22
top half of this lineup. I'll tell you Kirk don't strike out against righties
30:25
either. I mean, this guy's like less than ten percent, so he's
30:27
definitely hit putting the ball in play. So yeah, I mean I don't
30:32
mind that at all. I just I think you could have a situation where
30:34
you got two guys already with a start under about their veterans. I think
30:37
they might come out. They both could feed off each other have a pretty
30:40
good game. I think you're going to see a lot of people go to
30:42
this game as the you know, they're preferred bats. I think you're going
30:47
to see, you know, a lot of Houston bats. So to me,
30:51
like I said, I think Tucker will be very high owned. And
30:53
to me that's why I was thinking, Wow, Nats might move up a
30:56
little bit for me, especially in that game with the with the nine over
30:59
under, and I'm just gonna bank on and try to get the top of
31:03
the tournament. Hope that this game is a dud, and you're gonna see
31:06
a lot of teams, you know, pretty a lot of teams in the
31:07
tournaments. You're gonna have pieces of this game. And if we can hope
31:11
that one of those two can have a pretty decent game, or those two
31:15
pitchers, you know, we might be able to squeak in there like with
31:19
the gnat stack or maybe the cub stack steaks it in there. So yeah,
31:22
I'm just kind of hoping this game is a dud. That's what I
31:26
decided that I'm gonna go for. I'm not really an amer with either pitcher
31:30
either, kind to be honest, with you. So yeah, I'm just
31:33
I'm just kind of picking some one offs here. Kyle Tucker is definitely my
31:37
favorite on both sides. So Vizio second base, outfield. I think he
31:41
said he was third, so I wanted to say that out loud, I
31:45
will say caution, I guess a little bit varshow I think on DraftKings,
31:48
if he's sitting in the five spot like he's expected three point six k again,
31:52
good numbers against right, He's got some pop. I think he's the
31:55
most popular Toronto batt So I think a three man stack or something, and
32:00
I don't love the five man Toronto I mean, man, they just have
32:02
not been grades. But leaving off of our show and going like a Vlad,
32:07
maybe it's on that first base or Kermeier or just anyone really butt our
32:10
show. Again. You can play make plenty of sole lineups of our show,
32:15
but as a popular one off for a lot of people, I prefer
32:17
just getting away with getting away from him and taking some of these other Toronto
32:21
bats. So yeah, more of a mini stack for me. But I
32:24
do think Toronto is interesting because Javier is gonna be third highest own pitcher.
32:29
You get leverage guaranteed, ninth. Any of that good weather, Favier struggled
32:32
a little bit. Like you said, the swings, uh it's swing and
32:36
miss stuff was down a little bit in the first start. So yeah,
32:38
that's really all I got. Now, when mini stack Toronto can full stack
32:43
Houston for sure, unus Houston stack up against Pittsburgh and the Dodgers. For
32:46
you, I'd say, they're they're they're they're blow I'd like both. I
32:52
like the Dodgers one, Pittsburgh two, you know, and I would throw
32:58
the Cubs up there it was a neutral whether game, but it's not obviously,
33:02
So yeah, that's that's pretty much where go. I would have the
33:05
Cubs above you know, Houston or Toronto if the weather was neutral there.
33:10
But yeah, for me, I think Dodger's definitely the way to go for
33:15
me. I think, you know, they're the Dodgers in this kind of
33:19
slate here today, definitely have the potential to you know, put up some
33:22
runs. But yeah, that Pittsburgh team, you know, and I'm Pittsburgh
33:25
is the team I normally wouldn't play. But we got four slate, we
33:29
got you know, we got four games, right, you know, and
33:30
we got to watch the weather and two of them still, so we got
33:34
to be careful. So let's just make sure you know we're paying attention,
33:37
watching what's going on. And I think you know more I talk about it
33:40
here, I think Cubs Nets, Pirates for me or where I'll probably be
33:45
looking because I'm going to be rostering glass now, especially on fan Duel.
33:49
I think those that's where I'm gonna primarily pull. I do like Tuckers the
33:52
one off as I mentioned, but other than that, Yeah, for me,
33:58
I'm just gonna I'm just going to stack up and kind of live in
34:00
those ponds. So we did just get the Astros lineup actually, and it's
34:07
pretty normal. John Singleton is playing first though Instaid, I've brought you in
34:09
the sixth spot two point six k on DK very good price right there at
34:15
just another very good first base position. So I think that's interesting that we
34:19
got Pirates line up. Mccutcheons in there. Was he expected to be in
34:24
there in the five spots it was. Yeah, the Pittsburgh lineup looks pretty
34:30
looks pretty normal though, so nothing changes there. What he Houston Pittsburgh,
34:35
two of the most popular teams on the slate, wanted to make sure line
34:37
up, so John Singleton two point six k at first becomes a good play
34:42
for sure. Last game on the slate, what's going on, Marquee?
34:45
Someone else said something about your background. You got chet Lemon on that wall
34:49
g rising somewhere. You know, I thought it might because I used to
34:51
have. I have the eighty four Tigers picture somewhere around here. I kind
34:55
of tried to move it around. But those are like some of my better
35:00
cards that I have. That ye, there there's a Wayne grat Ski with
35:07
me, Pete Rose and Jordan's. I got Riley Green's Ripkins showy bonds like
35:12
this man really just put Spencer Torkal center, Riley Green amongst some of the
35:15
greatest of all time and every sports Detroit over the bag. Buddy's Alexander went
35:22
deep. That kid is good. That kid is good. We're in the
35:24
Chicago's the rain and light, snow, won't be won't let up till nine
35:28
pm. Thanks for that, King of Smack. I will definitely be monitoring.
35:32
I'll be refreshing Ross Page. That's what I mean when I say when
35:36
I say refreshing. Show off. Hey, he didn't even say his best
35:38
two things. A little Stevie heiserman a little pavel dad suit, Gordy,
35:44
how up there? Come on? Those are the best way he has behind
35:45
last game? Everybody, how up there? You do? You know?
35:49
But I'm fifty two years old. I've been around the long damn time,
35:52
so I had probably a lot more time to collect this kind of stuff.
35:54
I'll check in when you guys are fifty two. We'll see what kind of
35:57
hit you got. But I wish I could go back and get me some
36:00
of them Jordan's. I always say, what could you ask? Tell your
36:01
you know, twelve year old self? Jordan's and Gretzky's line them up.
36:07
Yeah, go back what forty years and I can see the future. Yeah,
36:10
I wish i'd do that too. I'd have a lot more money.
36:14
Right and Brown, we talked about this. I think Brown definitely has the
36:19
higher pitch comp I think it's gonna be little for an inning probably, and
36:22
then Brown aff is how it sounds. It sounds like Brown will get more
36:24
of the bulks. I prefer him at four K. Let's get to the
36:28
last game on the slate. G Rising. Yeah, I appreciate y'all hanging
36:30
out four games, maybe even three. You guys watching here on MLB,
36:35
we really do appreciate that the grinders out here. NBA going on tonight as
36:38
well, PGA, Hoop and Tambo did a show locking tomorrow morning, NASCAR
36:44
MMA. If you want to join the nation, if you want all the
36:46
sports, use promo code hoop fifteen monthly six month annual packages sixty nine dollars
36:52
a month before using code hoop fifteen six month cheaper annual our cheapest rate if
36:58
you just want MLB for the c though, can't beat the price fourteen dollars
37:01
a week, thirty nine dollars a month, two or twenty nine dollars for
37:05
the year for projections, stack rankings, hitter rankings, pitcher rankings, core
37:09
reports, discord, etc. You can even get it cheaper though that monthly
37:13
in season will go down to about thirty three dollars and one hundred and ninety
37:16
five dollars for the season if you do use promo code MLB fifteen get to
37:22
fifteen percent off. Last game g Risen, I mean pretty easy over here.
37:25
Giants Dodgers eight and a half total. Kyle Harrison, Tyler Glass now
37:30
on the mound. I ain't playing these Giants. If you want all the
37:34
direct leverage in the world. And it's not the craziest thing a four game
37:37
slate with someone that's gonna be eighty percent oh maybe or whatever it is.
37:42
It's baseball. Crazy things can happen. Brian Bellow just got shelled yesterday,
37:46
Shell but not great, totally different Glass now, Bellow, Oakland, whatever.
37:52
But I don't think on a small slate against someone Clear's day of the
37:55
chalk Tyler Glass now maybe gets hit around. Giants win you all the money,
38:00
that's all you need for the year. Dodgers side, though, I
38:04
mean, man, I will say I like the Pirates and Astros a little
38:08
more than the Dodgers if I had to pick, because I respect this Kyle
38:13
Harrison guy a bit, like he's good against lefties. Otani's there, Freddie
38:15
Freeman's there, months, he's there some of the best bats he wants.
38:20
I think if I stack the Dodgers, I want to go wrap around.
38:22
I'll take the Mookie in the one hole, and whoever they put on their
38:24
Kiki or Nana should be in against the lefty. Always love Keky against lefties.
38:29
Chris Taylor should be in there. Will Smith that catcher, like,
38:32
give me the Rady's give me a wrap around, And yeah, I always
38:36
love Keky Baby, so ke Keik took his name. He's the man.
38:44
Yeah, he's He's been one of my guys that I've liked over the years.
38:46
But yeah, the Dodgers stand out. I mean, you know,
38:49
just kind of you know, I start peeking at, you know, the
38:52
stats so far this year. I mean, Mooki's hitting five hundred, Will
38:55
Smith's hitting four twenty nine, Freeman's hitting four fourteen. Dodgers are smashed it
39:00
as a team, so you know, something to uh to be looking at.
39:04
Mookie is just Mookie Bets. He's my favorite bat of the day,
39:07
next to Tow Coucker Tucker. I mean, it's pretty obvious. Mookie is
39:09
Mooky. The dude's amazing. He's just fun to watch and he's fun to
39:14
root for. It too, Like when he's up the bat, it's just
39:16
and if he gets at first, he steals, you know, and it's
39:19
just like this guy's this he's just great. I means, and his weight
39:23
and everything. The dude is just how fast he gets to the ball in
39:27
the three hundreds, he's like a two to twenty average. So that's why
39:31
you like him. He's from Yeah, so yeah, I think this game
39:38
is definitely interesting. But as you said, I you know, if yeah,
39:42
they could beat up Glass. Now he's been beat up before, you
39:45
know, he he he blows up. He has those blow up games.
39:47
But uh, yeah, I just I'm not going there. I'm just I'm
39:52
locking in Glass now. If you wanted to go the other way, sure
39:54
you're mmming, I wouldn't you know, I wouldn't hate you for it.
39:58
But Dodgers for me, all the way up at the top, just like
40:01
him too much. Will Smith, as I mentioned it, hitting the ball
40:04
pretty well, so definitely like him. But yeah, for me, Dodgers.
40:09
And as I said, I'm gonna watch We're gonna have to watch the
40:12
weather on that Cubs game, so if you know, if they're not gonna
40:14
play till nine o'clock. We got a couple of people got bit in the
40:16
ass from that Mets and Tiger game last night, kind of thinking that might
40:20
be able to go off and probably try to sneak in a few of those
40:22
guys, and then as time went on, they just ended up, you
40:24
know, pulling the plug on it. So warning too, I hate them
40:29
Nets games Man, the National suck with with Rainos. Don't jinx anything today.
40:36
They frustrated me a few times in the past. So you burn me
40:37
once, I'm not gonna forget about that shit. So I said that,
40:43
actually because I should have mentioned from the top Pitt Washington Rock does have his
40:46
yellow which yellow looks like awesome on slates like this with so many of these
40:52
orange games. But I'm happy you said that. I thought it was a
40:55
green and there was no worries and you said it, it is yellow on
40:58
here and Washington is they pull some fuckery plenty of times. Yeah, absolutely,
41:04
So they weren't that marking money and that you know period people get their
41:07
beer money and ship and then they go up no game like yeah, assholes,
41:12
I mean, yeah, this late. Please it's six forty five,
41:15
like it's the first game of the night. Oh I didn't mention that.
41:17
Don't forget that six forty five star. Yeah, like you know it's twenty
41:21
minute. Don't think you're going there at like ten to seven. You'll be
41:23
pissed off. Yeah, well there is only one game I think out the
41:27
gate isn't there too, Yeah, the only the one game six forty five
41:30
Pitt in Washington. So you wouldn't be able to have any of that if
41:32
If so, you'll be stuck with the other games, which may not be
41:36
a bad thing, but it's my favorite game though for bats. Yeah,
41:38
so yeah, monitor that that game is at six forty five Eastern. Then
41:42
we got seven forty eight ten, ten, ten eastern. Again, everything

Corner one night we got absolutely shit faced. He was doing a card signing
42:52
and that guy was the coolest guy. It was about a year before he

that, because that guy was just a genuine nice person like you just came
43:04

43:07
to treat everybody the way he did in that bar that night. It
