- 0:05All systems go clear. You left. What's going on? Everybody happy Wednesday?
- 0:38Hope everybody out there having a good day, sweating out some early MLB.
- 0:43Two games going right now, two games still left, so money definitely
- 0:47not safe. Eight games a night. You Rising, doesn't look like any
- 0:51weather. No weather is good to see. You wanted some runs yesterday.
- 0:54You asked for some runs. We got some runs to you. Rion Yankees
- 0:58n awesome, awesome stuff. Dodgers. Man, I didn't like the Dodgers
- 1:02as much as they performed. Absolutely nuked yesterday. Solid eight game slate.
- 1:07A couple of spots. Pitching wise, I think will be pretty chalky.
- 1:11That's yeah, relatively spread out amongst like three teams. Maybe pretty obvious to
- 1:15know though. Yankees, Dodgers will be decently owned once again. Started talks
- 1:21in baseball with you. Hope everybody out there. Michael W. Gator Nation,
- 1:25Ben Russell, having a good day. How are you doing today?
- 1:27Gee? Rising, looks like it's pretty humid in the Midwest again. Oh
- 1:32man, it is pretty warm here today. But not what they're calling for
- 1:34next week, man, next Monday. They're saying it's supposed to be like
- 1:37ninety eight or some shit. So fuck, man's that's nuts stick to your
- 1:41leg kind of shit right there. That's no fun. As we know up
- 1:44here in the Midwest, it gets humid as shit. But man, it's
- 1:47been a good day. You know, Hey, did the day job.
- 1:49Had to go around some factory plants today and sell some robots. Did some
- 1:53shit today, So I had some fun doing that. But hey, man,
- 1:57it's always fun when we got a little day baseball we can kind of
- 2:00attention to. But you know, you mentioned all the runs yesterday. Man,
- 2:02it is good to see we're getting a little warmer. I think,
- 2:06you know, we are talking about, you know, should you always stack
- 2:07you know, five, three, whatever else, And we were kind of
- 2:09talking about it, and I think at the beginning of the year, I
- 2:13you know, there's no reports that the ball has been dumbed down, but
- 2:15we all kind of know the ball's been dumbed down a little bit, it
- 2:17seems. So, you know, those big runs weren't just there as they
- 2:22they were. Now. We did see two double ditchit games last night.
- 2:24You know, we did talk. We we like some Yankees that that worked
- 2:28out for us the Dodgers, you know, we we we talked a little
- 2:30bit we like the lefties, but man, we got to remember how shitty
- 2:35that fucking Texas bullpen is. Man Like, that's fucking bad. Like they're
- 2:38terrible. So we'll get Yeah, we got we got it again tonight.
- 2:43I mean, you know, just kind of looking it actually made me go
- 2:46back and revisit some of the bullpen stats, you know, just so you
- 2:49know, the worst Ra Colorado Angels, White Sox, Texas, Toronto.
- 2:53I mean, so you know, there's a couple of the worst bullpens.
- 2:57So you know, we got to keep remembering how bad these bullpens are.
- 3:00But yeah, Dodgers got on it early, was good. But today we
- 3:04got an interesting slate. We got a little bit different than yesterday. We
- 3:08had a lot of options, but today we got a couple different. You
- 3:12know, pitching seems to be a little bit more narrow. There's one chalk
- 3:15guy on the high end, one chalk guy in the low end. Where
- 3:16we've had a couple options here the last couple of days kind of to move
- 3:20and pivot off of. So I think today you're gonna see a guy like
- 3:23Bryce Miller with probably freaking fifty percent ownership forty percent ownership today Peterson could be
- 3:28the same. So I think that's gonna be the popular pitching combination here today,
- 3:31especially on DK. So you know, we'll talk about some guys that
- 3:37you know, maybe you can use to uh to get around that a little
- 3:40bit here. But man, it's always fun when baseball's getting back in.
- 3:45But man, we got some big golf here coming up. Joey fucking Chestnut
- 3:49can't eat in the hot dog contest? What the fuck is that all about?
- 3:53And that's kind of shitty, But you know, title, isn't that,
- 3:55like, you know, being NASCAR and then you have the Pepsi six
- 4:00hundred and telling the Coca Cola car he can't race. It's kind of the
- 4:03same thing in my opinion. I mean, who cares. He's got a
- 4:05sponsorship from somebody else that Nathan's doesn't own the food eating thing, So what's
- 4:11the fucking difference, Like, you can't be that, you can't be like
- 4:14that as a sponsor. I mean, who cares. I don't even know
- 4:17all that. Yeah, that that sounds a little weird. Joey said he
- 4:20couldn't. He's get sponsored by some Imperial Foods that and he's repping vegan hot
- 4:25dogs. But I mean who cares like Nathan's you're afraid of a vegan hot
- 4:30dog? Yeah, fucking don't be afraid of that fake plant bowl crap.
- 4:35Come on, we're Americans. Yeah, either way, good baseball slate here
- 4:41today. I'm excited about some golf. As we know, we got a
- 4:44couple guys in the live final, Hoop and Tambo, so you gotta give
- 4:46them guys a shot out to them. I think that's the end of the
- 4:49month. I believe it the end of the month. I think it's by
- 4:53y'all in Detroit, like June twenty eighth, by y'all in Detroit. So,
- 4:59but I don't think it's this this week. They having a live final
- 5:01Detroit, that's what I Or Chicago. Yeah, no, I think it
- 5:04is Detroit. It could be. It could be, but you guys got
- 5:08a course out. Yeah, it's That's how I found out the DK Live
- 5:12final for baseball this year Cago. I yeah, I know, in the
- 5:15fucking balls, Like, who wants to go to Chicago? Nobody? Now
- 5:18imagine Detroit. Time's not tie two, That's what I'm saying. I'll tell
- 5:23you right now. The worst live final spot I've ever been to was New
- 5:26Orleans hands down that it's a fucking dump. It was winter and it smelled
- 5:30like piss and puke. It was so bad that yeah, it's bad news.
- 5:39It was bad so but either way the title, man, do we
- 5:43have any weather? We got to worry about it even look, I didn't
- 5:45even think of that. No, it looks good. Weather looks pretty solid.
- 5:47If anything, Roth will tweet something out or follow it. It's free
- 5:51on his weather report as well. But I see absolutely nothing. Benny's in
- 5:56here, take down Jay Sean Toga. What is going on? Fellas?
- 6:00So we saw let me check this out. Symptomizer isn't working to make lineups?
- 6:03Is it a known issue? I have not even tried. I just
- 6:06hopped on the air. I actually saw tambo. I was watching a little
- 6:10PGA show and it was working for them PGA. So let's give a try
- 6:14MLB shyptomizer right here. Again, this is free right now, any monthly
- 6:18or annual package or MLB only PGA only. This is our optimizer we came
- 6:24out about a month ago. Still free for any member right now. It
- 6:28will be charged an additional add on. Definitely start messing around with it.
- 6:30As you see projections our ownership. So let me just try and build a
- 6:35random team. Let's say we want to lock Sunny Gray and we want forty
- 6:39percent. Here have to make two changes again all your build settings. Let's
- 6:43say we want two players over under five percent. We don't want to spend
- 6:47all our salary again understooing random stuff right here. Again, we've went over
- 6:50this. There will be a tuitorial sometime later on when it is charged,
- 6:55when we have other features added. But I've talked on the show with g
- 6:59Rising a couple of times. You want like min three Dodgers, you can
- 7:01do that, etc. So let's build some teams right here, twenty teams.
- 7:05Let's see if it's working or not. Looks good so far. Yeah,
- 7:13looks like it's working right here, So give us try and refresh it
- 7:16maybe. If not, hit up ship a Nation and discord, hit up
- 7:20Tambo and discord again. This is what you see. We'd said forty nine
- 7:24eight lineups, nothing more than that. So you see forty nine eight is
- 7:27the highest. We wanted at least three Dodgers. So let me check quick
- 7:32hold on where's exposures? That's what I was looking for. You see Dodgers,
- 7:38all of them because we said mid three Dodgers, we're that much overweight
- 7:42to the field on all of these guys. Labor we did it the lock
- 7:45put on sunny gray, so it makes sense with this underweight on all of
- 7:47them. You can go to positions third base, see where you're at.
- 7:50There's so many cool features on here. Again, if you remember it's free,
- 7:54why not mess around with it. It'll be the cheapest in the industry
- 7:57when we do charge for it, very easy. If you have any recommendations,
- 8:01things you want added or whatever. Shift to miser questions you have go
- 8:05to the shift demizer section in the discord and drop it right there. But
- 8:09looks like it's working for us. And again, if you want to be
- 8:13a member ship a nation, I should be like this right here, join
- 8:20the nation and we'll talk some ball after this weekly. That does not get
- 8:26you, Discord, It does not get you. The shift Tomizer sixty nine
- 8:28dollars a month, three hundred and eighty nine dollars a month for the six
- 8:31month package, six hundred ninety nine dollars which comes out to fifty eight dollars
- 8:35a month for the annual package. Can't wait for NFL season? Well,
- 8:39college football this year, US Open, Big Boy Prizes, the PGA tomorrow,
- 8:43mm A this week, NASCAR this week, NBA Finals tonight, Pump
- 8:48for that, NHL Stanley Cup Finals, NASCAR. So much going on right
- 8:52now and again, if you do join any monthly six month annual package,
- 8:56Shift Tomizer is also included. Let's talk baseball g rising again. Solid slate,
- 9:03and in terms of pitching, I think you nailed it the pretty obvious
- 9:05combo Bryce Miller David Peterson. Now, if I have to play one of
- 9:09the two and pick what chalk, I'd rather eat much rather David Peterson for
- 9:13me six point three k, whereas Bryce Miller nine k. There's just a
- 9:16lot more pivots up top. I'll throw it to you right on that note,
- 9:20though, Sonny Gray the highest at ten k, I think sim play
- 9:22nic Ludoo. I think is him play at ninety six, Same with Pavet
- 9:26at ninety three, Biby at eight eight. I think all of them are
- 9:30totally fine pivots off of Bryce Miller at half the ownership or less, while
- 9:35Ker Buehler's there at eight three. Christopher Samchez rounds it out at eight k.
- 9:39I think every single pitcher in that range will get ownership. You can
- 9:43make a case for all of them in terms of ownership, though, I
- 9:46think it's clearly Bryce Miller first, Sonny Gray second, and then from there
- 9:52it might be mixing match a little bit right down EIGHTK and above. Yeah,
- 9:56I think it's interesting. As I mentioned earlier, I think Miller is
- 10:01gonna be the obvious chalk just because the White Sox suck, and we know
- 10:05the White Sox sucks, and they're gonna roll out what six seven righties off
- 10:09of them, and he's got a twenty eight percent k rate against right handed
- 10:13pitchers. So I mean over on DK, Miller's like nine thousand, he's
- 10:16the fourth highest pitcher. I think he's the third highest. Over on fan
- 10:20duel, I think I think Ladello and Gray are the two highest. But
- 10:24so yeah, I think Miller's gonna be the chalky guy. He's somebody everybody's
- 10:28going to do, like a match with a White Sox. Sonny Gray.
- 10:31You know, he's interesting. But man, his pitch count hasn't been really
- 10:35that high you look at it. He I think it's been what let me
- 10:39just double check here, yeah, here, five four starts in a row.
- 10:43He has not got past the sixth inning mark. So man, I'm
- 10:46FanDuel, I'm not gonna pay up for a guy that I hasn't even got,
- 10:50you know, qualified for a quality start in his last four starts.
- 10:54So that's what kind of turns me off him on FanDuel is just I'm kind
- 10:56of concerned about that. I mean, he's at eighty six, seventy four,
- 11:01eighty eight, eighty nine. I mean, he hasn't broke ninety pitches
- 11:03in his last few starts. So for me to pay the highest price for
- 11:07a guy like that, I I'm just I'm kind of hesitant there. So
- 11:09that's why I think Miller, for me, is is up on top.
- 11:13But I think Loudello is interesting. The problem is, we know we've mentioned
- 11:20it, Indians don't strike out enough. So you know, for me to
- 11:22pay up, you know, the second highest pitcher on both sites, you
- 11:26know, I just I'd rather have a better matchup than the Indians. Now,
- 11:30I think Paveta is interesting. He's probably really one of the best,
- 11:33you know, talented pitchers here, and he's got a Philadelphia team ninety three
- 11:37hundred. I believe Rila Muto got hurt, didn't he, So you know,
- 11:41that's gonna make that lineup a little shorter. So, you know,
- 11:43I think Pavetta is interesting. I think that's a guy i'd probably pivot off
- 11:48of from Miller on DK, I think paveta Is is an excellent choice.
- 11:52Now Bibi, I mean it's kind of hard to play a guy in the
- 11:56home run parky, right, you know. I mean it's just Cincinnati not
- 12:00our favorite park to be really playing anybody. I mean, the talent's there.
- 12:03If you wanted to go there, you could do that. You know.
- 12:05Bueller is another interesting one. Now, Sanchez is the one I think
- 12:09is interesting. Boston's been absolutely terrible against left handed pitching, so I think
- 12:13at eight K, I think he's really interesting. I think he may not
- 12:16get as much ownership as he should, but I think Sanchez is interesting.
- 12:22But up here on the top, I think Miller is the clear choice.
- 12:24I think he's going to be highly owned, especially in larger field tournaments.
- 12:28I think he could be above the forty percent mark. To be truthful,
- 12:31him and Peterson both today I think could be in that realm. I think
- 12:35most teams are going to have one or the other in probably in probably more.
- 12:39You know, I don't I'm not sure if it'd be more Peterson the
- 12:41Miller. I've been, you know, kind of thinking either way, they're
- 12:43both going to be high. But I really like Pavetta. I think Pavetta
- 12:46is probably the one of the best pivots. So but yeah, I mean
- 12:52there's literally you could literally play almost any of these guys up here in the
- 12:56range, except you know, I just haven't really been a fan of attacking
- 13:00against the Indians here With Lodello, I think he's just priced up too high
- 13:03for that matchup. But man, I think Miller, everybody's gonna see White
- 13:07Sox and they're just gonna they're just gonna click his name. Yeah, so
- 13:11a lot of people coming over from golf love it. Tambo and Hoop just
- 13:13went live again. If you're in the Gulf streets huge prize pools, make
- 13:16sure to check them out. Check on the content on the site of course,
- 13:20fit rankings. I'm always looking at those. Shout out Lee tier rankings,
- 13:24Hoop Tambo on there Lee as well, the Stone of course with Djen
- 13:28and everything. Definitely make sure check out the golf content best in the industry.
- 13:33And if you are just joining, you can watch the show now and
- 13:37then go back a little bit, or if you just want to go back
- 13:39now, put on one point five X. We did a little ship Tomizer
- 13:41stuff again just briefly. We were trying to make sure it was working because
- 13:46someone couldn't get it to work. Found like it sounds like he found the
- 13:48problem. You do need a monthly membership or the MLB membership. But yeah,
- 13:54talked about it a little bit. If you want to rewind, Gee,
- 13:58Riise and I have talked about it a couple couple of shows. You
- 14:01hear my voice at one point five X, it probably sounds like I had
- 14:07to have I'm having a safety meeting with myself. Yeah, all right,
- 14:13So I'll go back and see what it is to you, Ryzen, because
- 14:16I'm curious as well my thoughts up here in this range. I'm in on
- 14:18Sunny Gray as a pivot. I agree with you the pitch count. It's
- 14:22not as high as some of these guys. The weather's not great in Saint
- 14:26Louis. But if you're looking at Bryce as a pivot, he's going to
- 14:30be lower owned than Bryce Miller, maybe half the ownership. Like I wouldn't
- 14:33be shocked since he has a whole one thousand more. He has a higher
- 14:35K prop o six and a half minus one thirty on the over for Gray
- 14:39though, whereas the under Bryce Miller's minus one fifty five. So again,
- 14:46if you're just it's not just K props, the matchup's way easier for Miller.
- 14:48But we play an ownership game. Great definitely has the upside to get
- 14:52there, so I'm fine paying one k more. Pavetta and Sanchez I think
- 14:56are my favorites in this range though, because it's across the country, especially
- 15:01in the Midwest, and a lot of places like Saint Louis eighty eight degrees
- 15:05pretty humid there. For Sonny Gray, you go to where was the other
- 15:09one? We're looking at Cincinnati with by being Lodolo eighty five degrees a little
- 15:13humid. Give me Pavetta and Sanchez pitching seventy degrees in Boston. Yeah,
- 15:18Like I look at weather, especially as it gets in the heart of summer,
- 15:22better pitching weather there. Paveta has been solid this year, Sanchez against
- 15:26Boston against the lefties. Like you said, at only ak both salad K
- 15:31props in that game as well. Sign me up six and a half Paveta
- 15:33juice on the under pretty much the same as Bryce Miller, though five and
- 15:37a half Sanchez juice on the over. I like the pitching duel in that
- 15:41game. I'm out on Bueller if i'd like if you're playing one hundred and
- 15:45fifty lineups, I would definitely play them. But this range is so strong,
- 15:48I would still rather buy. Being lodolo, I think they have a
- 15:50little more upside. But yeah, how I rank this range Poveta one,
- 15:58Sanchez two three or I guess Sonny get Gray three at ownership, Miller four
- 16:03AK and below. Not too many options. Oh, I think it's gonna
- 16:07go. Is David Peterson. We talked about him a lot, way too
- 16:11cheap. At six point three K against the Marlins, good play will be
- 16:14popular. Not much more to add there for me. Rexy Garrett the other
- 16:18side of that game, coming off an awful start against Tampa Bay was solid
- 16:22before that though, seven point one K I think is interesting. And I
- 16:26guess the last guy someone mentioned it's in chat is Jonathan Cannon coming off like
- 16:33a thirteen DK performance. He's literally six K against the Maritors, who have
- 16:37strikeouts in a good pitching park, they can get you all the Yankees,
- 16:40all the Dodgers, maybe something like that with Sonny Gray. So I guess
- 16:44that's the pivot from the Peterson. I don't like Cannon that much. I
- 16:48think Garrett's fine, but I'd rather pivot in the upper tier than I would
- 16:52off of Peterson down low. What do you see? Yeah, I mean
- 16:57I think there's bottom tier is interesting. You mentioned Garrett. I mean,
- 17:02you look at a guy's game log, you're about to throw up, like
- 17:04I'm gonna click on this guy. Man, he's like it's terrible. But
- 17:07you mentioned he started out pretty good. I just the Mets match up there
- 17:11isn't the greatest. I think That's why I think I got Peterson a little
- 17:15bit higher here. But I don't mind that matchup against Miami, you know,
- 17:19especially at that price. Sixty three hundred. Cannon, I do think
- 17:23is interesting. The only thing that worries me is is the last start he
- 17:26only had sixty pitches. Now, the start before he had you know,
- 17:30he went he had one hundred and two if you look at his game log.
- 17:33But I know he's you know, been up and down. But man,
- 17:34I mean Seattle is just you know, one of the teams obviously been
- 17:38chasing all year. So I think he's in play, but I think it's
- 17:41really risky. I mean, you just don't know what you're gonna get there.
- 17:45But he's definitely in play. I don't have any interest in really,
- 17:52I mean, I'm not interested John Gray. Now he's he's coming off the
- 17:56il for Texas. I've seen somebody I wander with. The Texas pitcher is
- 18:00supposed to be unless that something changed, John Gray is supposed to be.
- 18:03It's so it's a second start. Last time, I think you only got
- 18:07like mid thirties pitches, thirty seven pitches. Hey, I read he was
- 18:10only going to go three innings today, three to four. So it's mainly
- 18:12bullpen. I think that's probably there. You go and hey, we get
- 18:15it. That can play them at three to four. Yeah, yeah,
- 18:19you can't play great today, But I mean, Texas bullpen stinks. You
- 18:22know a lot of times you like playing up to match up, but if
- 18:25you haven't got the horses to match up, it don't matter what the hell
- 18:27you're throwing out there. But uh, yeah, I mean I think today
- 18:32there's there are a few options heavier on the top side than the bottom side.
- 18:36I think there's a couple guys you could use here on the bottom.
- 18:37I think the other guys here are a lot more riskier than than we've seen
- 18:41in like past slates when you want to pivot to somebody. So, you
- 18:45know, I think there's only a couple guys down here I'm really even interested
- 18:48in. But it's not like up top, where you know, in the
- 18:52Ak range you can almost literally make an argument for almost everybody really, But
- 18:56I think down here, I mean, if you wanted to Gosoni, I
- 19:00mean I'm not going something like doing something like that. Definitely don't like Lynch,
- 19:06you know, Soriano. I just I'm not a fan there. Just
- 19:08don't have any upside. I mean, there's just there's not much really there.
- 19:12So I think that's why Peterson's going to be really high owned. But
- 19:17uh yeah, I think the pivot off Peterson would probably be Garrett if you
- 19:21wanted to go there. But for me, I think the most used combo
- 19:26on DK today by far will be Miller and Peterson. I can almost guarantee
- 19:30you agree with that. And yeah, the more I look at it,
- 19:33like, I'm not going to give away any of the picture rankings or anything
- 19:37today, but we have six pictures, seven pictures pretty much in a tier
- 19:44of their own, then a pretty big fall off. One of those falling
- 19:48off is Brex and Garrett. He's not ranking pretty well for us, and
- 19:51I don't like him in much down below either. So yeah, I think
- 19:55how i'd make it. I'd make it real easy. You can play Sanchez
- 19:57and everyone above. If you want to include Bueller, fine, he'd be
- 20:00the one I would take out Biby and Lodolo I'm fine with. But again
- 20:04that hitting environments, I'd prefer the other ones in that range and then just
- 20:08play David Peterson. Like Peterson's chalk I'm worth. I'm willing to eat on
- 20:12this slate because of his price. It gets you a lot of big bats
- 20:15when we get to bats. Yes, I want to play for some.
- 20:18I'm good with Sanchez, Peterson. You can fit a five man stack Bryce,
- 20:22Miller, Peterson again, if you do play that, then I'd be
- 20:26hesitant. I'm playing some chalk, but akin above, mix and match there.
- 20:30Peterson is the guy cheap. That's all I see this late again,
- 20:33with our rankings, I think Braxton Garrett, who will get a little ownership,
- 20:37I think he'd probably be the one I throw away my final rankings,
- 20:41Pavetta, Sanchez, Gray, Actually no, Peterson won Pavetta Sanchez Gray.
- 20:47I'll say, who's your top four? And Russell make sure I just responded
- 20:52to you in the YouTube. Try and do this right now, because I
- 20:55want to make sure we get this figured out and you got you got what
- 20:59you're supposed to do. You got a discountar you got money back when you
- 21:03did upgrade, So I want to make sure we get this taken care of.
- 21:06So I wanted to say that out loud, So you get this done
- 21:07on the show with me. Go ahead. I mean, I got Miller
- 21:11one, and then I'll go Paveta too, and then i'd go Grade three,
- 21:17and then i'd probably go Sanchez and then Peterson. I got Peterson a
- 21:22little bit lower just because I think he's gonna be chalky. And if I
- 21:23can build a team maybe with a little heavier pitching, I think that can
- 21:27gonna make me a little bit different here today. So in a tournament sense,
- 21:30generally recently, I've been kind of paying down. But I think you
- 21:33can stay in the uh, you know the you know the Miller. I
- 21:37mean, if you wanted to go Miller, I guess you could, but
- 21:40you could literally go Sanchez if you want to, you know, include Sanchez
- 21:44and then you know somebody like Miller if you wanted to, or try to
- 21:47be a little different, uh with Sanchez. But yeah, I'm just not
- 21:51gonna I'm just not gonna do Miller Peterson on DK because I think that's gonna
- 21:55be pretty popular, and then when you do that, you're they're all gonna
- 21:57get led to the same bats. So I think by mixing it up a
- 22:00little bit here today, especially going a little heavier, it would be a
- 22:04good pivot to make today. I like it. I like it. Jason.
- 22:07I love hearing this as well. So we talked about this in depth
- 22:11yesterday, kind of single entry series. Yesterday he saw four man stack one
- 22:17with the Dodgers. Now he gets the reasoning with the four or five man
- 22:19stacks. Yeah, with twenty four teams, Like yeah, if you get
- 22:22every single one off right or the highest score at each position, like,
- 22:26you can win every GPP. But it's a lot harder to one off home
- 22:30runs. You're making pretty much home run parlays, which many people know out
- 22:33there is very tough to do. Instead, he picks five Yankees, you
- 22:37pick five Dodgers, it's a lot easier to get to the top of the
- 22:41leader board needing one team to go off versus multiple different outcomes. So I
- 22:45like it. I like it. You man, you can't get flustered.
- 22:49I know, it's frustrating when your guy comes up. You're like, he's
- 22:52only got four at bats or you know, five, possibly if he's at
- 22:55the top of a lineup. Man, I've seen it. My team's have
- 22:57been you know, middle of the and then all of a sudden, like
- 23:00last night the Dodgers had to freaking seven run, seven run seventh or sixth
- 23:04inning and they had four home runs. Like, dude, you stack the
- 23:07Dodgers, you literally could have been in the bottomer in the middle and the
- 23:11next thing, you know, it's like a freaking slot machine, just you
- 23:15know, up at the top fall. Yeah, and you know what I
- 23:18was surprised about title yesterday. A lot of them Yankees weren't even that high
- 23:21own. I think Stanton was less than like five percent of you hit that
- 23:23homer after Judge, I was like, oh shit, this is gonna be
- 23:26nice. But uh yeah, some of the brew crews didn't pay off last
- 23:30night. They didn't do shit. You know, I was a little disappointed
- 23:33in some of them Brew crew, even though a Domis kind of had a
- 23:37late stolen base kind of helped out a little bit for me, but uh,
- 23:40Sanchez didn't come through. But man, them Dodgers kick some ass last
- 23:45night. But yeah, that's why we stack. You know, like you
- 23:47catch a big inning, you're gonna get it all. I mean, you're
- 23:48getting all those points you know you're getting. You get a three run homer
- 23:52and two of the dudes on basis your dude, your guys. I mean
- 23:55that's that's like a double bonus. So yeah, it definitely does make a
- 23:59difference. Yeah, and like that you're saying for baseball, I mean,
- 24:03even if you're in first place and there's only one inning left and you're up
- 24:06twelve, Like if that's basketball and you're up with one minute left or two
- 24:10minutes left, you're safe. One swing of the bat, at least fourteen
- 24:12points can swing. He's like, over the years, there's been some brutal
- 24:17swings. I always remember justin McMahon's I think I'm saying this right, there's
- 24:22no probably not watching. I don't want to remind the I do you remember
- 24:25that? But he was, Yeah, he was live streaming it. I
- 24:26think it was like two hundred and fifty K and then one swing of the
- 24:30bat. I want to say he was raging. Then he's gonna win two
- 24:32fifty if this guy gotten out and he goes and he's like soon as he
- 24:36gets it on and went two hundred and fifty K and the dude hit like
- 24:37a two run homer and then he got he fell down like that and they
- 24:41fell down. Yeah, he fell way down. And like you go from
- 24:44almost when a two fifty K to like five k or whatever it was,
- 24:47right Like, that's baseball and that's the Varians. And that's also why DFS
- 24:51is so hard. And I could go millions of ways with this. That's
- 24:53why it's so top heavy nowadays. Not only do you need to be great,
- 24:56you need to get lucky because third place ain't gonna to pay the bills
- 25:00long term. First place is what you need. So there's so much that
- 25:03goes involved. But back to it baseball. You can be climbing up leaderboards
- 25:07fast. You could have went from last place and you had those Dodgers,
- 25:11you had Ti Oscar and Freddie and Otani or Hayward or whoever was going back
- 25:15to back or whatever. You just went from last to at least man cashing
- 25:18and probably higher. That's the beauty of baseball. But you have to know
- 25:22the game you're playing, and I wanted to shout it out quick, shep
- 25:25dog. He put in the discord twenty two lines in the three dollars.
- 25:29This was my best up top. Loved the shift tomizer because it clicks on
- 25:32names. I would never win handbuilding, and that is exactly why, even
- 25:36if you single entry build or handbuild, I think using an optimizer is good.
- 25:41He had one point four percent per doma three point five percent Hayward in
- 25:45a Dodger's stat Hold on, I'm black. Do you still hear me,
- 25:48guraising, Yeah, all right, at least you can hear me. My
- 25:52thing's tweaking. I might have to leave streamyard. Oh I'm back. My
- 25:56computer is tweaking. I can see all right, we're good, We're good.
- 25:59We're good. I'm good. But yeah, that's like you need low
- 26:02own pieces. Even in more popular stacks. It's maybe hard to click Jason
- 26:07Hayward. If you're handbuilding, you see that in the shift demiser. It
- 26:10makes a lot of sense. Low ownership team. That is why I think
- 26:14shift miser. You mentioned a lot you like optimizers, even building one team.
- 26:18I think it's very good to do that as well. So I don't
- 26:22not cut you up. But if you were using optimizer yesterday, that's Stefinie
- 26:26guy came up for the Angels on every optimizer after it was announced he was
- 26:30gonna he was min two k on DK. He's hitting first, you know,
- 26:33over the Angels yesterday he was end up being thirty percent owned. And
- 26:37you know, some of the tournaments I was in, and I can almost
- 26:38assure you almost everybody who was sitting on there probably had an optimizer, and
- 26:42that warrant that you know, it's not either you got to go through every
- 26:47fucking lineup and look at everybody's price, or you're not doing yourself with justice.
- 26:51At least the optimizers will warn you like hey, like if you need
- 26:55this one off, and then if you don't like that two K guy,
- 26:56cut him out, rerun the optimizer. It'll tell you the next guy who
- 27:00was up. If you don't like that guy, cut him out and run
- 27:03it a fucking gain. Keep doing it. It'll tell you who those next
- 27:04dudes are. So you can kind of pick up guys that you like,
- 27:07and then if you have a second or a third optimizer, you can put
- 27:11the same kind of things in and they might give you a different low price
- 27:14dude. So you know, I like that kind of stuff. It just
- 27:17kind of gives you options and then I hand build from what I see what
- 27:19everybody else has. But yeah, I mean there might be a situation too
- 27:23where I'll be like, why are they recommending KEYK Dude? You let me
- 27:29you know on my on my play today, and I'm thinking, we'll let
- 27:33me look, and I go back and looking like, fuck, last seven
- 27:34days he's been smashing. Okay, cool, so I'll play him. He's
- 27:37twenty two hundred or whatever, especially if you're trying to decide on some of
- 27:41them bottom guys. But I think that's the best benefit for optimizer. It
- 27:45opens up your eyes to different things that you wouldn't even necessarily thought of that
- 27:48you know, you just there's just so many different things. So to me,
- 27:52it's like a different point of view talking to you, telling you,
- 27:55giving you opinions on what you could do, what you should do. So
- 27:59a lot of times that's why I like, like, you know what,
- 28:00you could just run it flat, Hey, I want the top four to
- 28:03four stack on fan Duel today, what is it? Boom, It'll tell
- 28:06you Padres fucking Blue Jays, and you're like, ah, I don't like
- 28:10the Padres. So you take out the Padres and the next team's the Indians.
- 28:14You're like, I don't like the Indians, and then you take them
- 28:15out. Run it again, like I just like to do that sometimes and
- 28:18then all of a sudden you're like, well, why is it on Peterson
- 28:22every time? Oh? Now it's on Sonny Gray. So obviously now I
- 28:26got a totally different lineup build because I got a high end pitcher. So
- 28:29a lot of times I like just looking at you know, really what it's
- 28:32telling me, what it's spinning out, And they're all different. Man,
- 28:34every optimizer, you can spin ten different optimizers with the same parameters and they'll
- 28:40give you pretty much about eighty percent of the same. The other twenty percent
- 28:44is different. Yeah, yeah, that makes sense. If you put like
- 28:47a five minimum on any every optimizer for astros, you're gonna get five and
- 28:52the nine. But those one offs can be all random players at a million
- 28:55different things. Like if you have randomness, it's randomizing projections with some sort
- 29:00of correlation built in as well, and you'll and ownership and everything, so
- 29:04so much goes into that. But let's talk some bout she rise in eight
- 29:08games on tap. Hope everybody out there again doing well, enjoyed a little
- 29:12game theory DFS random talk wasn't about Dee Riysen's ladies or anything that he loves
- 29:21knockers. It wasn't nothing like that. It was actually education. At first
- 29:26game Boston Red Sox Philadelphia Phillies, Christopher Sanchez, Nick Pavetta on the mound
- 29:32against seventy degrees in Boston, so a little cooler compared to other spots.
- 29:36Yeah, this is the game. I don't love bats like I like both
- 29:38pictures, Phillies socks. If I had to pick a side, I much
- 29:42prefer the Phillies because you get the lefties. Pavetta pretty big, splits great
- 29:47against Righty's lefties can be hit a little bit. Literally, the same thing
- 29:51I said yesterday. You can play Schwarber, you can play Harper. Hopefully
- 29:55you did play Schwarbur. He had quite the game double dong, I believe.
- 29:57However, I'm not five man stacking Phillies, So if you're one Offingham,
- 30:03you're spending up for a one off, which means that you might not
- 30:07be able to spend up for like a Judge and Yankee stacks or whatever it
- 30:10is. But that does get you different, and it is a smaller slate,
- 30:12So I guess on all that note, I'll throw it to you.
- 30:15But I like pitchers more. I won't have many bats in this game.
- 30:19Yeah, I gotta agree with you. Paveta has just been pitching pretty well.
- 30:22I mean, it's just not really a spot. I think I'd much
- 30:26rather attack the Phillies. I think mentally they're gonna be Donal a little bit
- 30:29losing their catcher, so I think that's gonna be a sting to the Phillies.
- 30:33So that's something you know, I'd be looking at there, like by
- 30:37using Paveta. But yeah, I like both pitchers here. I don't even
- 30:41really there's not to me any kind of one offs i'd really like. I
- 30:45mean, Sanchez has such a high ground ball rate that you know, I'm
- 30:48just not interested in really picking on them there. I mean, we like
- 30:52the part, don't get me wrong. I just think, you know,
- 30:55this is one of the best parts to you know, play offenses in.
- 30:57But I just think there's two good as pitching here today on both sides,
- 31:00and it's not worth it. I mean, we're sitting at a titan slate.
- 31:04I mean, we got the Yankees game sitting at ten and a half.
- 31:07It's two runs over every other one. It's almost like a course field
- 31:11here today, you know, with the Yankees in Kansas City, so all
- 31:15the other over unders the highest or eight and a half. So I mean,
- 31:18you know we're sitting here looking at like with this game sitting at eight.
- 31:22We literally had what one, two, three other games that have higher
- 31:26with sitting at eight and a half. So yeah, I'm just not a
- 31:30fan of this one here. But I just can't stomach it on either side.
- 31:34To be honest with you, I don't even like it with it.
- 31:37Yeah, you see it the same way I think you'll see it. Kindness
- 31:40in one in this next one, Miami Marlins, New York Mets, Braxton
- 31:44Garrett David Peterson on the mound again, seventy five degrees, decent hitting weather.
- 31:49It's again like almost ninety same places in the Midwest. I'm not playing
- 31:55the I'm not playing Miami against Peterson. I do understand, like, if
- 31:57you want someone nuntioned earlier. You want leverage, Miami is a spower you
- 32:01can get leverage, and it's somewhat of a small slate. I just man
- 32:06like, none of these guys really interest me. Like my favorite beats usually
- 32:09the jazz of the world. Yeah, I guess Jazz is usually the bat
- 32:14I play. I don't like him, usually lefty lefty. I don't know.
- 32:17If I had to play anyone, it's probably Josh Bell or Dane Myers.
- 32:23But I like Peterson. I won't get leverage off of the Marlins the
- 32:27Mets side, Like, I'd much rather play a low owned Mets naturally than
- 32:30try and get the double leverage off the pitcher. Just don't play Peterson and
- 32:34you'll avoid a lot of chalk there. Hope he gives up three four walk
- 32:37Some guys of strikeouts, aren't there Mets side. Some of these righties,
- 32:42you like Pete Alonzo yesterday it didn't work out. I think going right back
- 32:45to him at low ownership though a Lindor JD Starling Marte. Some of these
- 32:51rightis I'm good with. Garrett struggles a little bit against righties. So do
- 32:55I love the Mets is my top three stack? No, he'll be low
- 32:59owned no in a low total game. So I think they're interesting in a
- 33:01low own stat What about you, Yeah, I mean Braxt and Garrett.
- 33:07You look at his game log. I was just saying, I think he's
- 33:08given up quite a fewer and runs here in his last recent times five six
- 33:13earned runs his last two starts. He only went two innings last start.
- 33:16But you know, I mean you mentioned he does struggle against righty's. I
- 33:20always liked me some JD. Martinez against right lefties, that's for sure.
- 33:23So yeah, I think I think Alonso is interesting too. As you mentioned
- 33:30Braxton, Garrett does have a you know, mid fifty percent ground ball lean
- 33:34to both sides of the plate, which you know he's more of a ground
- 33:37ball type pitcher. So you're gonna want to look at the guys who you
- 33:39know have some fly ball tendency. You know, you're looking at Alonzo thirty
- 33:44seven percent fly balls. So I definitely like you know him today to start
- 33:47out. But yeah, I mean I just don't like this game. Like
- 33:50we mentioned, this game here is just sitting at a seven and a half
- 33:52low lowest total on the slate, tied with the White Sox in Seattle.
- 33:58So I think the pitching's too good here. I just I'm just gonna leave
- 34:01it alone. Maybe someone maybe Alonzo or JD is a one off I think
- 34:05would be about it. Yeah, I like it. You and I are
- 34:07very similar their first two games. Not much in terms of bats. Prefer
- 34:12the pitching. And this game another one where both pitchers gonna get some ownership.
- 34:15But we have an eight total Guardians, Reds, Tanner Biby, Nick
- 34:19Lodolo on the mound, eighty five degrees in Cincy. Again, great park,
- 34:23good hitting weather, but we do have two solid pitchers. Again,
- 34:28this is one of those games where I think you like target a side of
- 34:31the plate. If you're playing it the Cleveland side against Lodolo, you prefer
- 34:36Righty's, but he's just a solid pitcher overall. Reds against byby lefties definitely
- 34:40hit him a little better Friedel l Ee, Candelario. But again, man
- 34:46like two solid pitchers. We're gonna get to. It's eight games, Slate.
- 34:51A couple of these games we're gonna talk about have way worse pitchers.
- 34:53They're like a half bullpen game, like the Yankees are going against or the
- 34:59Dodgers are going again so I don't know. I guess of that's Cleveland Reds,
- 35:05how would you rank him. I probably have Mets one Reds to Cleveland
- 35:10three. I'd probably have Cleveland a little bit. Billy in there too,
- 35:16throw pH in there too, just because I don't want to fuck with that
- 35:20bullpen. Many of his bullpen's been really good. So but yeah, you
- 35:23you mentioned Biby, he does struggle a little less. He's got twenty three
- 35:27percent strikeout rate in his last month here against uh lefties, and he's got
- 35:32thirty one percent against righty's uh Friedel. You know, you could definitely go
- 35:37there. You know, bb doesn't really have He has more of a fly
- 35:40ball lean than he does a groundball lead, especially to the left side.
- 35:44So as you mentioned, you know, they can throw what three lefties or
- 35:49four out of five up at the top, you know, especially with Candelario
- 35:52being a switch. So yeah, I think the Reds are a little bit
- 35:55more interesting. I just don't like fooling with that bullpen because even if Baby
- 35:59gets it's in trouble, they're gonna be able to bring another guy that's you
- 36:01know, is a stud arm. So I'm just a little bit worried about
- 36:05that there. I just don't like fooling against you know, Cleveland's bullpen.
- 36:08I think we got other spots that we could look at. I'm with you.
- 36:13I think this next game you are gonna have some interest in though.
- 36:16Actually yeah, I think you're gonna have some interest here Bailey Falter on the
- 36:20mound for Pittsburgh taking on Sunny Gray for the Cardinals eight and a half total
- 36:24almost ninety degrees in Saint Louis, and Saint Louis has one of the higher
- 36:29team totals on the slates, So how I'm seeing it right now, I
- 36:34think Paul Goldschmidt is gonna be very, very chalky, very very might be
- 36:38a little exaggerating, but he's gonna be one of the most popular first basement,
- 36:43if not the most unslate against the left GI in only four point one
- 36:45K. I like Saint Louis, but I think not playing Paul Goldschmith in
- 36:51Saint Louis DAX is even better because a lot will have gold Schmitt. People
- 36:54will one off gold Schmidt. You get the stack Saint Louis and Goldschmith isn't
- 36:59on there. You just bury a lot of teams. So I think this
- 37:01lineup is in play, and I don't know if I want this Mike Siani
- 37:07guy an outfield spot out there, but he's going to be low owned.
- 37:10It's a rap round stack and it's pretty much a full punt, so I'll
- 37:13say one through nine. But I think goldschmid at ownership is my least favorite.
- 37:16Falter's not good, though, I think these Cardinals are a little interesting.
- 37:21Yeah, Falter's not good. He does not miss right handed bats at
- 37:23all, like very much at all, So he does have a ground ball
- 37:28lean toward the left side. He's like fifty six percent versus left these righties,
- 37:31it's like full twenty percent drop. It goes like the thirty five percent,
- 37:35So I mean, this guy just isn't missing any batcher right gold schmid
- 37:38Ronando, I think these guys went up at the top. I mean,
- 37:43like the I like the full stack here. I'd even go as far as
- 37:45go down to Dylan Carlson even because he'll be fairly cheap. So I don't
- 37:49mind them at all. It's just the Cardinals have been blah, right,
- 37:52we just haven't liked the Cardinals. They have picked it up a little bit
- 37:54here in the last few weeks. But they've just been one of them teams
- 37:58that have been struggling all since the beginning of the season. So but man,
- 38:02it's just kind of hard to stack the Cardinals just because they've been so
- 38:06shitty. But I think gold Schmidt will be pretty high owned today. I
- 38:08think Nan will be high owned. But uh yeah, I don't I don't
- 38:13mind them. I think it's I think it's a decent, decent play.
- 38:15I mean, Saint Louis average park. I mean, it's nothing special,
- 38:21it's you know, no summer, the summer it does pick up a little
- 38:24bit. So but uh yeah, I mean I think I just full stacked
- 38:29the Cardinals if I if you like the Cardinals, just full stack at goal
- 38:31five Cardinals on DK and just you know, fairly cheap too, So I
- 38:37mean you might be able to get some pretty good pitching out of it.
- 38:39And you know where you don't have to go down to Peterson, So I
- 38:43mean that that's a bonus. You'll definitely be different with that. So yeah,
- 38:46I think the Cardinals are in play just because of their pricing. Another
- 38:51thing I like to do when the opportunity aligns, like not forcing it by
- 38:54any means, but Sunny Gray and then you play the five man Cardinals.
- 38:58The wind doesn't mean as much on DK as it does on FanDuel, but
- 39:02hey, I mean, if Cardinals are putting up a lot of runs,
- 39:05you expect Sonny Gray to probably at least get the win, have some run
- 39:08support. Some pitchers pitch better there. Anyway, I already like Sonny Gray,
- 39:13get run support, you get the win. Makes some sense to me.
- 39:16Four games left, ge Rysen, I know you're gonna have some interest
- 39:19in this one. Corsfield Junior today, New York Yankees Kansas City Royals.
- 39:23Cody Petite on the mound for the Yankees. Gonna be a bullpen game.
- 39:28It looks like Daniel Lynch will get a couple innings, is the long reliever,
- 39:32the lefty. But after that it's gonna be a Kansas City bullpen game.
- 39:36Ninety degrees, pretty human inkc Two of the best offenses. Yankees absolutely
- 39:42went off yesterday. I mean, the whole the poke in the Yankees is
- 39:45ownership. I think, really that's it, and it's baseball. I guess
- 39:50at what ownership do you fade? And I do think they're probably the chalkiest
- 39:54team on the slate. I don't know, eight game slate with other options.
- 39:59I think if I had to pick a single entry, I probably fade
- 40:01the Yankees today. I think they're better in larger field stuff when ownership gets
- 40:05more spread out, whereas in smaller field stuff it usually gets more condensed.
- 40:09So I'd be more willing to play him in larger field and smaller field,
- 40:13taking away though both sides. Yeah, we got as the scenario where you
- 40:17know, the the two teams are better than generally the teams that are in
- 40:21cores, right, Like, it's the same kind of thing. We got
- 40:22two point two runs higher on the over unders in every other game, and
- 40:27it's just not cores. It's you know, obviously Kansas City. We mentioned
- 40:30yesterday top three park and you know for runs being scored. So now we
- 40:34got hot weather, we got literally the fucking hottest hitter and the planet.
- 40:38Aaron Judge, I mean, the dudes, it's just not even right too
- 40:43good, you know, And we mentioned I mean he's behind what very Jose
- 40:46Ramirez and Barry Bonds on his Aaron Judge, Well, according to the Jose
- 40:52Ramirez, he's higher than Barry Bonds. So that's that's the most ass Andine
- 40:55statement ever in my life, Barry Bonds, let's stretched out if you're a
- 40:59base buffet watching there, and that there was nobody out ever that had a
- 41:02stretch like that. Barry Bonds was not even seeing pitchers. They were throwing
- 41:07them four feet wide. Of that, we'll d asshole man with a Valentine
- 41:09that walked him with the bases loaded. Part of that guy. That's why
- 41:15Jose said it, because he got walked to. That's why I think.
- 41:17Yeah, so, but you know, I think the Yankees, man,
- 41:22it's tough to fade. I mean, it is kind of tough to fade
- 41:24him. I mean I think if you're going to do so, you best
- 41:28consider the cat you know, wells or a catcher or the bottom part of
- 41:31that lineup and kind of wrap it around a little bit or or or whoever
- 41:36plays Yankees gonna have that Stepnick guy from the Angels up there too, because
- 41:39you know he's hitting the top of the lineup. That was like the you
- 41:43know, everybody who had a high priced team yesterday had that guy in is
- 41:45a one off. So you know, you just kind of got to look
- 41:50and think about how you're building your Yankee team. If that's what you're gonna
- 41:52do today. I I mean they are hard to fade, man, They're
- 41:55really hard to fade. I get it. But I think there's royals.
- 42:02You know, I don't like attacking that Yankees bullpen, to be honest with
- 42:07you. I mean, I'm not really worried about Petit here, but that
- 42:10Yankee bullpen's pretty good. So that's kind of tough, right. They're gonna
- 42:15get I think, very interesting. I think that'd be a low own one
- 42:19that I think you can you don't think so. No. I think people
- 42:22are gonna see that weather, see that park, and outside of Bobby Wit,
- 42:28like the people, people, the players, people are gonna want to
- 42:30play on Casey, Bobby Wit, who you're spending up for. It's a
- 42:35bad short shortstop position and he's just a stud. Nelson Vilasque should be hitting
- 42:38middle of the order. Three seven is gonna get ownership. I think MJ.
- 42:42Melendez does waters is a punt and then like in Casey stacks Selvy at
- 42:46a catcher position where I think a lot of people will punt, they'll think
- 42:51paying ups a little more contrarian. I just think there's only so many spots
- 42:54people can go today, and they'll see the weather. I don't think they're
- 42:58gonna be They're gonna be lower with the Yankees, maybe fourth highest on the
- 43:01slate. But if you play, if you like them, play them.
- 43:05But I don't think they'll be low. I don't think you go Bryce Miller,
- 43:07Peterson and then just get your five Royals and think you're different. Is
- 43:10what I'm trying to say. Makes sense? Yeah, I could see.
- 43:15I mean, you got a game with ten and a half, so I
- 43:16mean, optimizers are gonna push you toward that too. I mean, and
- 43:21that's the thing. Once you start filming with optimizers, you know, it's
- 43:23like kind of guessing sports book lines. After you've been sports betting so long,
- 43:28you pretty damn close generally. I mean you can pretty much call it
- 43:30a lot of times too. So. But yeah, I mean the Yankees.
- 43:35I mean, you guys don't need us to tell you the Yankees are
- 43:37a good play. We all know the Yankees are a good play. The
- 43:39Royals are a good play. I think this game is gonna get some ownership
- 43:44here. I mean, you know, if I think the game stack there,
- 43:47you know, is gonna get ownership. I think you're gonna see that
- 43:51just because the Royals are so cheap, you'll probably see a lot of five
- 43:53three, five two Yankee stacks, so, you know, especially with Peterson
- 43:58being so cheap. But yeah, I mean ten and a half game.
- 44:02It's obviously the game here to play today. But I mean, you could
- 44:07see a couple of teams now, so let's let's just put this out there.
- 44:09Yankees are gonna be chock title. What two teams would you say have
- 44:13the best chance to outscore the Yankees today? Royals because of the weather.
- 44:21The bullpen does scare me a bit, but I'll say Royals because if they
- 44:23jump on them early, you don't get the best arms. And because of
- 44:27the weather. I guess it's hard not to say Dodgers, but maybe that's
- 44:32a little recency. But the thing is, like they're gonna get a lot
- 44:36of the bullpen. The lineups is one of the best in baseball. I
- 44:38guess the sneaky one I'll say. Besides that, I want to say Cardinals
- 44:44because Faulter is so bad and it's good hitting weather, but I don't know
- 44:45if there's enough home run upside with the Cardinals, Like you really, they're
- 44:50gonna have to string together like what the eighteen hits the Guardians didn't cooor Is
- 44:52like a couple of weeks ago and stuff. Yeah, I guess I would
- 44:55say Royals, Royals, Dodgers. Yeah, I mean that That's what I
- 45:00was trying to see. Who else other than the Dodgers, you might say,
- 45:02Because I think the Yankees and Dodgers are clearly the top two teams,
- 45:06especially after both scoring a bunch of runs, you're gonna have some recency bias
- 45:08there. I was just curious to see who you would say that third team
- 45:12was. I mean, it's interesting. You could argue the Royals, you
- 45:15could argue Saint Louis, and I think you could argue a team like possibly
- 45:19Arizona or you know, you could you know, go somewhere like that too,
- 45:22So you know, yeah, it's just interesting. I was just curious
- 45:24because you know, if we couldn't really name anybody other than the Dodgers,
- 45:28I mean, I think that just tells me even more that the Yankees would
- 45:30be even more highly owned than we're even anticipating. So I think that's kind
- 45:35of why I was asking you, And you know, toga Hey put in
- 45:38there. You know, Judge sixty six hundred, you need to get them
- 45:40twenty five points plus to be relevant. You know, yes, as far
- 45:45as point per dollar. But what if Aaron Judge is still the second highest
- 45:47scoring player on the slate, It doesn't matter what he got to his point
- 45:52value. Really, you'll still need him to win. So, you know,
- 45:55sometimes, yeah, you get caught up thinking, you know, especially
- 45:59like football, You're like, ah, I need my ten k. Running
- 46:00backs got to get me, you know, Christian mccaffery's got to get me
- 46:04fucking forty points to even you know, be good. Well, football is
- 46:07different because there's so many different, you know, players that could get you
- 46:09there. In baseball, you know, like I mean, if if Garant
- 46:13Judge hit you two bombs, which is he obviously has the best chance,
- 46:15probably more than anybody, then obviously got to have him at that point.
- 46:21That's why you're paying the premium for him. But dude, go look at
- 46:23Aaron Judge's game log. He's an automatic fifteen to twenty points. The guy
- 46:27is fucking sick, man. I and I was giving him shit the beginning
- 46:30part of the year and got lee. Man, he's mad at the world
- 46:35for something. Man, He's pounding the shit out at baseball. Yeah,
- 46:38he is. He's talented, no doubt about that. Can you tell me
- 46:43what GPP means in DFS, I did see, Tolga responded, but guaranteed
- 46:46prize pool. And what that means is a tournament. If you're familiar with
- 46:51poker, the tournaments and cash games, cash games and DFS just said,
- 46:54there's one hundred people fifty to fifty five dollars. Fifty to fifty pays out
- 47:00to one through fifty. You can have the best line up in the world,
- 47:02take first place, you only make four dollars profit. One dollar goes
- 47:07to FANDULA DraftKings for the rake tournaments, just say there's one thousand people in
- 47:12it. First place might be worth five thousand dollars, second place three thousand,
- 47:16and then nick cash is fifty bucks or whatever. So it's a prize
- 47:22like first place, it's tournament. You make the most money. Second place
- 47:23you make a little less, but more than third only pays out like twenty
- 47:28percent roughly changes depending And yeah, that's where all the cheeses one hundred k
- 47:32up top all that cash games more boring, right route safer route. You
- 47:37can't make as much money ROI wise that way, So hope that explains it.
- 47:42Three Games Left you rise in White Sox Mariners, Jonathan Cannon, you
- 47:45froze an part though title I don't mean to, you know, cut you
- 47:50off there. But the best part about GPPs is they're guaranteed to pay you
- 47:52that prize pool. So even if there's ten thousand people, as title was
- 47:57mentioned in this year on Drafters, who does spot yeah, I forget Yeah,
- 48:01they added more, so they're probably not going to get up to their
- 48:05half. So here we go. We lead into it, get you a
- 48:07nice bonus deposit up to one hundred bucks by using promo code chip it,
- 48:12but they're not going to fill it up, so you know, you get
- 48:14overlay. So now all of a sudden, if you know it's ten thousand
- 48:16people and they only get eight thousand, well guess what, you already beat
- 48:20two thousand people, you know, before you even start, So a lot
- 48:22of people, you know, like if you got money in your bank roll,
- 48:25which I don't always say is the right thing to do unless you really
- 48:30like your team that day, but which sometimes each your bank roll is when
- 48:34you're looking five two minutes before lock and you're like, well, shit,
- 48:37man, this one's half full. I'm gonna get in it's only fifty dollars
- 48:39and then you get in and then you look a couple of minutes before,
- 48:43you know the twenty seconds before, and it's almost full because all the rest
- 48:46of us donkeys are doing the same damn thing. But Drafters should have a
- 48:51really nice overlay this this year. You've been saying they've been having quite a
- 48:53big overlay before so for the the last two years and they've only almost they
- 48:58pretty much doubled the contest, So I would expect it. But even if
- 49:01you told me no overlay, I think there's plenty enough people out there paying
- 49:05the Rake that don't do their due diligence, and it's a different drafting strategy
- 49:08than the other sites. I think the Edge alone, even if it filled,
- 49:13is the best out there. And I'm not just saying that because we're
- 49:15partner with Drafters are one Drafters. I truly believe it is the softest out
- 49:21there. So yeah, that's what I'll say. Let's move on. Three
- 49:23games White Sox Maritors Jonathan Cannon, Bryce Miller seven and a half total,
- 49:29But the Maritors of a solid team total like four point six, four to
- 49:31seven, it's a seven and a half total because the White Sox aren't even
- 49:36at three, that's how bad they are. People are playing Bryce Miller.
- 49:39I don't think it's worth playing White Sox as leverage. Talk to me if
- 49:43you think Mariners are in play. I think the Marinders are in play.
- 49:46Anytime you get a young kid on the mound, you definitely got to think
- 49:50about them being in play. And we know right behind him is one of
- 49:52the worst bullpens, as I mentioned when the show started, you know in
- 49:57MAMLB. So yeah, absolutely, I think they're in play. I mean
- 50:00some people may even play Cannon here, so I can't say he's gonna be
- 50:05too high when we're really going to get that good a leverage. But you
- 50:07know, at the top of this lineup, Crawford, Raleigh Rodriguez, Hanneker,
- 50:12Luke Rayley, I think all these guys are in play today. I
- 50:15think it's pretty good. Mitch Garver has been smacking the shit out of the
- 50:17baseball here recently too. For Seattle. He's actually in the last week,
- 50:22He's in like the top three I think of ops in all of MLB,
- 50:27So yeah, I think, you know, they're definitely interesting. I don't
- 50:30even know if Garver is going to get in there today, but he is
- 50:34smacking the shit out of it. But either way, I think they're definitely
- 50:37interesting. I think anytime you've got a rookie pitcher coming out, I mean,
- 50:40what do we know. We don't even know really what he's gonna get,
- 50:44how much time, you know, how many what kind of pitch count
- 50:45he's gonna get, sucks. The bullpen sucks. So I think the Mariners
- 50:51are definitely in play here. But I mean, you're looking at his seven
- 50:54and a half total. But as you mentioned, that's you know, the
- 50:58White Sox are sitting at a I mean, come on, that's terrible.
- 51:05That's just bad. But I ain't running. I ain't run into Bethy Over.
- 51:07I'll tell you that. Yeah, you mean neither, that's not even
- 51:10gonna no way, that's not even. But yeah, I mean I think
- 51:14Seattle is a team you could look at as a low own, sneaky kind
- 51:16of stack. Here today, Uh, probably won't get too much ownership,
- 51:21but I mean, hey, we're tacking that bullpen. I mean, you
- 51:24know what, even if this kid goes out and has five great innings,
- 51:28we get half of the game with that bullpen. I still think that's not
- 51:31bad. Yeah, we saw it two days ago. It was when Klarala
- 51:35hit the Grand Slam in the ninth or never like those. A lot of
- 51:38it was against the bullpen. They are that bad. Yeah, two games
- 51:42left to you, Rising, Angels, dbats, Jose Soriano slates is Sony
- 51:46on the mound eight and a half total d backs you mentioned a little earlier,
- 51:51solid team total similar to the Mariners about four point seven. The problem
- 51:55is is like Jose Soriano, heavy heavy ground ball lead. So like when
- 52:00I compare them to the Royals, the yah, he's the Cardinals. I
- 52:05don't know, maybe even the Mets like Arizona's gonna get a little ownership.
- 52:09Not chalky by any means, but with a heavy, heavy ground ball lean.
- 52:13It just leads me to a couple guys. Jack Peterson looks really good
- 52:16in the three spot, hetle Marte looks solid. Christian Walker I'm good with
- 52:21even righty righty. But I don't know how much I love the five man
- 52:24stacks Rising. I'll tell you so. Yeah, I'm indifferent. Mainly a
- 52:30mini stack or one off set best for the ground ball lean. Talk to
- 52:32me if you have a different opinion. Yeah, I mean sorry, I
- 52:36know if that guy could if he don't walk people, I would just look
- 52:38at he usually gets in trouble with his walks. But you're right, heavy
- 52:43ground bawling mid fifty percent to lefties, almost sixty five percent to righty.
- 52:49So definitely got to think about that. But I think it's interesting. I
- 52:52think I would just full stat Arizona if you wanted to go there. I
- 52:57wouldn't really pull too many one off guys. I just full just full stack
- 53:00him and go right after it. Lower k percentage the lefties almost by you
- 53:05know, ten percent. So the Corbyn carrols Peterson, as you mentioned,
- 53:07is interesting. I don't even mind playing Jake McCarthy either, So both all
- 53:13these guys. Ketl Marte has been hitting pretty well recently, so I think
- 53:15I would just full stack it. The ground ball Lean does worry me a
- 53:19little bit, So that's something you got to think about. Their angel Bullpen
- 53:23is right behind Colorado and in between Chicago and Texas as a shit ass bullpen,
- 53:29So we got that working for us too with Arizona, so I think
- 53:31that is interesting. So yeah, I think Arizona is in play. Is
- 53:36a full stack. Now on the other side, Sosony, I mean we
- 53:39got a strikeout pitcher and a fly ball pitcher sitting here. This dude's sitting
- 53:43at a little over to two point two something for strikeouts per nine, So
- 53:49I mean home runs per nine. I'm sorry, So I think you know,
- 53:52the Angels could be in play here. We already talked about Stephanick going
- 53:54to be the top of that lineup, gonna be really cheap. So I
- 53:57think he's a bad one off. I'll say that, yeah right now.
- 54:00Now he is, because now he's known, everybody knows who he is.
- 54:02He's gonna get he's gonna get steamed up a little bit. But yeah,
- 54:07I mean just tailor Warren taylor Ward looks good. Taylor Ward forty two flyball
- 54:13rate. I mean that's a pretty high fly ball rate. So you gotta
- 54:15fly viter who's gonna throw at strikes? I mean I like that combination.
- 54:20I think Taylor Ward is a pretty good play here today today too. So
- 54:24yeah, I think it's interesting. I think this game could be a game
- 54:30that could see some fireworks. I'm not saying both sides like the game stack
- 54:32it, but I think one of these two teams could be in play where
- 54:36that might be able to keep up with the Yankees, and I think Arizona
- 54:39has a good shot at that full stack. And you know, Angels ain't
- 54:44too far behind. So I like both of these sides here. Yeah,
- 54:47I know. I like the Angels a little bit yesterday and then I overlooked
- 54:52my I think a little bit. I think some of those guys, especially
- 54:54Taylor, Taylor, Ward, Polar Logan, Jope, Willie Kelter, thing
- 55:00still up there. They can't see our you know, my good looking haircut
- 55:02I got today. Wait, it is because my computer really might be tweaking,
- 55:07yeah, tweak it there you go, literally for fifteen minutes. It's
- 55:13been up there, first since we were talking about draft. That is so
- 55:17weird. People on YouTube chat, please let me know if you saw that
- 55:20too, because my computer, really it's been normal for me this whole time.
- 55:23I've been looking at you. Now I'm gonna be as high as ever
- 55:29and still know what if I'm looking at Drafters, Yeah you thought you that's
- 55:34you over there? There went back. Yeah, Yeah, we could pass
- 55:44one back and forth. Trust me, we might. We've done it multiple
- 55:47times for sure, not over the screen, but in real life, all
- 55:51right. Rangers, Dodgers, John Gray Walker Buehler sixty five degrees in LA
- 55:57eight total. Again it's John Gray, you mention, and you saw like
- 56:00three innings, four innings, then they're gonna get a Rangers bullpen that was
- 56:02beat up yesterday. Again, not great hitting weather at all relative to the
- 56:07slates. Maybe a little recency bias. People just saw the Dodgers do it
- 56:12yesterday. Smaller slate, not too many options. I don't know if that's
- 56:15the case, Like, I don't know. I guess I'll throw to you
- 56:20on that note. Do you think people chase recency bias a little bit and
- 56:22Dodgers are still in a fine spot where they get steam and they come in
- 56:27over owned, or do you think Yankees, Royals, other teams take enough
- 56:30where it's still Dodgers ten percent or whatever totally fine to play them. I've
- 56:37been asking myself that a few times when I was looking at the slate,
- 56:40and I think I'm gonna lean title that. I think the Yankees are gonna
- 56:44get more of the ownership, and I think the Dodgers are a pretty good
- 56:46pivot off the Yankees. Actually, I mean, yeah, it's people are
- 56:50gonna be talking about them. But I mean, if you're making one or
- 56:52two or three teams. I'm gonna assume more than not are gonna just stack
- 56:58up some Yankees, right, so I think you know in two looking at
- 57:01the stacks here, I mean my boy MOOKI love me some Mookie, as
- 57:06y'all know, he just hasn't been MOOKI. I mean, I'd rather pay
- 57:09for show Hay. It was at the beginning of this year. I was
- 57:12like, Oh, you couldn't afford really both. It's like the Yankees,
- 57:15you can't afford both Sodo and Judge because you know you're you're basically picking from
- 57:20the bottom of the barrel the rest of your guys. So you know,
- 57:22I just were much rather at this point obviously lean to show. Hey,
- 57:24So safety meeting all day or your balls are stuck to your pants, That's
- 57:30about it. When it's ninety degrees out there in the Midwest and damn skippy,
- 57:34you gotta have a safety meeting. I know one of you guys put
- 57:37something funny up there when Titles is laughing at because I'm like, is he
- 57:42asking, like, would you rather be high all day with the safety meeting
- 57:45your balls to your pants? Both? Is he laughing at your sayings?
- 57:49I don't know where that was. But Okay, it gets so hot sometimes
- 57:52and for me, like my day job, I go on these factories and
- 57:55I see these people working and I'm like, fuck, I'm so happy I
- 57:59can get some air condition. I feel bad, like I'm gonna go to
- 58:00the store and buy them all some damn popsicles, you know, in these
- 58:04factors, I have done that though, Bob Popsicles walk around. I'm like
- 58:07the coolest dude in there. So that's really cool. Yeah, absolutely,
- 58:13But man, I think the Dodgers are just a really good play I you
- 58:16know what, I don't think they're gonna be that high owned as we kind
- 58:20of think today. To be honest, I think every one of them be
- 58:22less than probably twenty percent. I think I don't think they're gonna see that
- 58:24high owned. I think, you know, you're gonna see some of the
- 58:28Yankees are gonna get high owned, and then you're gonna have to play some
- 58:30low price teams. So I think maybe a team like Saint Louis might get
- 58:34a little more ownership than we think just because of their pricing being so cheap.
- 58:37So but you know, to build a Dodgers and Yankees team, good
- 58:44luck. I mean you're you're not really gonna have too much success to that
- 58:47even with Peterson, You're I mean Peterson in the White Sox guy or Peterson
- 58:52Garrett and then you still need to bottom the order on some spots. But
- 58:55I do think you can. Yeah, I mean, if you do that
- 58:59long, how did you go that low? But I think the Dodgers are
- 59:02a really good pivot off the Yankees today. I think that's a pivot you
- 59:07could use. And you know, yesterday title I went to bed was sitting
- 59:12pretty I think I was in like fourth place in the DK one twenty one
- 59:15single entry, fifth place. I was like, ah, doing pretty good.
- 59:17Went to bed and I was like, let's see what happened. Wake
- 59:22up in the morning. I'm like, wait, what do you mean?
- 59:22I didn't cash? Fuck you talking about it? And I look and I
- 59:27was like fifteen runs fuck you? Yeah, you know. Then I had
- 59:31to kick the dog. Like the dog out this morning, was like,
- 59:35well, good thing about the fs we can come tomorrow. Yeah, absolutely,
- 59:39that's all eight games. Good stuff is always do you rise it.
- 59:43I wanted a double check because I thought it was gonna be gone after today.
