  All system's gone clear the lift on. We are back with another edition of
• 0:38
  the MLB Quick Hit Video. It's your Boy Ham. It is Sunday,
• 0:42
  June twenty third, looking forward to a great day. Hope you've had a
• 0:45
  great weekend. Hopefully the volunteers can get back on the track in the College
• 0:49
  World Series. But this is an MLB show. But before we get into
• 0:52
  it, let's talk a little bit about what's coming up, what's coming down
• 0:55
  the pike. It is Drafters, it is Bestball Season. Make sure you
• 0:59
  had our over the Drafters into the promo code. Ship it to a get
• 1:03
  one hundred percent deposit bonus up to one hundred dollars four brand new members.
• 1:07
  But man, it couldn't be a better day in my opinion, to talk
• 1:11
  some starting pitching. So my favorite starting pitcher of the day is going to
• 1:15
  be Nick Lodolo taking on these Boston Red Sox offense who quite frankly, has
• 1:21
  struggled immensely against left handed pitching in the strikeout department. We saw Andrew Abbott
• 1:26
  and his twenty percent k raid on Friday night. Just mow these guys down.
• 1:30
  Now we get Lodolo, who's much better strikeout pitcher than Abbot. In
• 1:34
  my opinion, these Red Sox striking out twenty seven percent over the last fourteen
• 1:40
  days against against left handed pitching. If you bring it back all the way
• 1:45
  to let's go all the way to thirty days, let's see how they're doing
• 1:49
  against start you know, oh wow, even twenty eight percent, even higher.
• 1:53
  So it is not a one off type thing. It is a trend.
• 1:56
  This Red Sox team strikes out in bunches against left So give me Nick
• 2:00
  Lodolo as my top ranked pitcher. That they do have some power, but
• 2:04
  I think Lodolo can mitigate that and be there today. Number two for me
• 2:07
  on today's slate would be Paul Skeen's former LSU Tiger Gray taking on these Tampa
• 2:15
  Bay Rays. And I meant over the last I would say five to seven
• 2:17
  days, they've been a little bit better, but when you look at their
• 2:20
  season long stats talking about these Rays, they've just been absolutely putrid against right
• 2:24
  handed pitching. I was all over Jones yesterday and all he did is go
• 2:29
  out there and k eight batters. Hopefully all met Rosario is okay today,
• 2:34
  but man, these Rays have struggled all year against ritings. Now I think
• 2:38
  Skeens picks up where Jared Jones left off yesterday. He would be my second
• 2:43
  ranked pitcher on the slate. Next up for me is gonna be Bryce Miller
• 2:49
  going into the fish tank to take on on these flat Marlins and this flat
• 2:53
  Marlins offense who has just been brutal all season long. They hung a goose
• 2:57
  egg yesterday. They didn't fare much better than on Friday night. I think
• 3:01
  it was three of the three or four runs and I got tim Anderson.
• 3:05
  Don't do it to me, Timmy. Timmy hit a walk off single on
• 3:07
  Friday night. But I think Miller can could go in here and mow this
• 3:10
  Fish team down. He's been up and down with his strikeouts, but this
• 3:15
  Marlin's team striking out pretty high clip. I want to say, around twenty
• 3:20
  let's look at it. They striking out around a about a twenty three twenty
• 3:24
  four clip over the last month, and I think Miller can get the job
• 3:28
  done again today. Next up for me is going to be Sunny Gray taking
• 3:32
  on this Giants team who has been struggling as of late. Give me,
• 3:37
  Sonny Gray, throw some of those lead balls up there, and those Giants
• 3:38
  are either gonna pound him into the ground or swing over the top of him.
• 3:43
  I think he gets a lot of ground balls today, a lot of
• 3:45
  cays. Give me some sunny Gray coming off of seven and two thirds endie
• 3:49
  performance at those aforementioned Marlins team last three pitchers I want to talk about.
• 3:55
  I'm not gonna deep dive into him, but I think the Guardians and Blue
• 3:59
  Jay his game. How's the recipe for a pitcher's duel? Give me some
• 4:01
  Kakuchi, give me some McKenzie. And then we got the return of the
• 4:05
  veteran of the forty year old mad Max Max Scherzer making his first start of
• 4:11
  the season today. Boach has come out and said there is no there is
• 4:14
  not gonna be a pitch count limit on him, but he has it thrown
• 4:17
  more than I want to say, forty five forty seven pitches so far in
• 4:21
  some of his rehabs starts, so I'm thinking about eighty five pitches. That's
• 4:25
  where he tops out as as long as he's grooving. This Royals team has
• 4:28
  been pretty bad recently, so if you wanted to get if you wanted to
• 4:31
  get funky in the GPP, I don't think Mad Max is the worst play.
• 4:34
  No, he has the k upside making his first start, though I'm
• 4:39
  gonna be I'm gonna do a wait and see approach. I'm not there.
• 4:41
  He's forty years old. Man, it's not the same he hit above forty
• 4:45
  anyway, Moving on, let me just rank those guys real quick. I
• 4:47
  did say that I had Skiings number two. Actually have Skians number three.
• 4:51
  I'm gonna go Lodolo one. Sonny Gray is my second favorite pitcher, followed
• 4:57
  by Skins, then Miller, then t mac my boy, Tristan mackenzie,
• 5:01
  and then Kakuchi and then don't forget Suersier as well. Onto the sticks and
• 5:08
  man, these sticks. It's tough today for these bats in my opinion.
• 5:12
  But up at the top of the leader board it was my ones from Friday
• 5:15
  night. It's those hot Lanta Braves. Give me some Atlanta Braves to take
• 5:18
  on nasty Nesta Cortes in the Bronx. I like the Braves, big fly
• 5:24
  ball hitting team against lefties, and Kortez giving up about a thirty eight percent
• 5:27
  flyball rate to those righties. So yeah, give me these braves in that
• 5:32
  small ballpark, especially in right field, you'd have to go opo for those.
• 5:36
  But give me these Braves, I like them to hit some more bombs
• 5:40
  like they did on Friday night against this lefty. Number two for me would
• 5:44
  be those Cincinnati Reds, and generally speaking, I'm not in on those.
• 5:48
  I'm not in on those. What do you call them? Those are bullpen
• 5:51
  games, you know, those openers. I don't really like an opener,
• 5:55
  seeing a new pitcher every time. But man, this Reds team, they
• 5:58
  can steal a lot of bases. They hit tons of power, and with
• 6:00
  offenses being limited to day, I think I'm gonna go with those Reds,
• 6:03
  the big Red Machine to give me the second best offense. Next up,
• 6:06
  going back to of the Mariners, I had him number two yesterday. I
• 6:10
  got him number three today, taking on a gentleman making his first start of
• 6:14
  the season, only pitched, only pitched well, I think three or four
• 6:17
  innings, maybe even two innings. Kyle Kyle Tyler. I think they get
• 6:21
  to him today. Got nine runs yesterday. I think they do more damage
• 6:26
  against Kyle Tyler and the rest of this Marlins bullpen today. Last, but
• 6:30
  certainly not least want to touch on these Orioles going up against Framber. Generally
• 6:36
  speaking, we'd like to get them against those righties. But today I think
• 6:39
  Framber, with all the power that this Rangers team, we know that Framber
• 6:44
  is is a pretty good, not a pretty good, a really good ground
• 6:46
  ball pitcher induces a lot of ground balls with offensive limited though. I want
• 6:49
  teams that can hit the ball over the wall, and this Ortals team certainly
• 6:54
  has upside to hit four plus bombs. My low owned stack of the day
• 6:58
  is going to be those Rangers. I think we get a little shot,
• 7:00
  a little injection of mad Max juice run into those offensive veins as well.
• 7:04
  On top of the fact that I'm not a believer in Alec Marsh and his
• 7:08
  high fly ball rate to both sides of the plate right around twenty nine percent.
• 7:13
  Let's move into some of my favorite one offs and some of my favorite
• 7:15
  pieces in those stacks. First up is going to be Adam du vaal forty
• 7:21
  is Atlanta Braves. He is my home run call of the day. Adam
• 7:25
  Duval is going to take Nasty Nester over the wall today. Make sure you're
• 7:29
  putting your home run call of the day in the comment section below. You
• 7:32
  get it right, you get a free week over here at ship at Nation.
• 7:36
  Next up for me is going to be Austin Riley. Austin three sixteen
• 7:40
  says he will be hitting a home run over the fifth today. He's gonna
• 7:44
  go hit a home run. Then we're going to go back to back with
• 7:46
  Duval. Hopefully do Ball is bat in six today behind mister Riley. Next
• 7:50
  up is going to be Josh Smith for those aforementioned Rangers. Give me Josh
• 7:55
  Smith should be bat in third, right in front of a Doulas Garcia.
• 7:59
  Really like that little that little mini combo there, not even many, but
• 8:01
  it's Simmy and Seegar Smith and Adullest. I don't mind that those four this
• 8:07
  afternoon. Next up for me is gonna be Ryan Mountcastle. We know what
• 8:13
  he historically has done against lefties. I hadn't been the same as he has
• 8:16
  in years past, but I do like Mountcastle today profiles very well. And
• 8:20
  then last Saturday night at least it's gonna be Hulio Rodriguez should be batt in
• 8:24
  second for those Mariners like him. He's got home run, he's got stolen
• 8:28
  base up side. Give me some j Rod in that lineup today before you
• 8:33
  head on out of here, make sure you hit that like, make sure
• 8:35
  you hit that subscribe. Everybody will be watching this video on replay. It
• 8:39
  certainly helps us out a tone over here. Make sure you're leaving your home
• 8:43
  run call of the day in the comment section below minus Adam Duval good luck
• 8:48
  today in your contest. I'll see you at the top of the leaderboards for
• 8:52
  Shipping Nation. I'm your boy, Ham and don't forget. As always,
• 8:54
  let ship it
