MLB DFS Process | DraftKings & FanDuel Picks, Plays & Slate Breakdown | Thursday, 06/11/26 · Daily Fantasy Sports by Ship It Nation

• 0:08
  Speaker 1: All system's going clear, the left up.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: It's up everybody. We got some daytime baseball here on Thursday,
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: June eleventh, looking forward to uh breaking it down here
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: on man, Matt, Well, I'll tell you though, Man, there
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: is some shitty pitching here today. I already got the
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: bottle out, Matt, got the whiskey bottle because you know,
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: got the screwball out. That's all we got are a
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: bunch of damn screwballs on the mound here on this slate,
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: but definitely one of the worst pitching slates we're going
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: to see in quite some time. But we'll dive into
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: it here on this early day. We got what five
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: games to talk about here? I see, I see Sean
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: in the chat here, Warren's in the chat. Bob also
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: is here with us as well. But yeah, see some
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: people tricking on on in here. But Matt, how's your
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: week going? How's the week been? Like I said, looks
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: like a pretty pretty shitty pitching slate, so it looks
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: like we'll have some offense to talk about. But other
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: than that, how's it going, my friend?
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we's been going. Good Man, Happy to eightp on
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: here Thursday. Love these shows with you so excited to
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: break this one down, even if it Yeah, I mean
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: about a week of a pitching slate as you'll ever see,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: which yeah, in turn means we got some good offensive spots.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: So she'll be fun breaking that down if the pitching
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: is torturous. But yeah, man, normal stuff. Five game Thursday slates.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Another one of these small slates, only a couple of
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: games tonight. It seems like MLB kind of made up
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: kind of just effort to have a lot of teams
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: off on Thursdays. So yeah, a little bit more than normal.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: It seems maybe I'm off there, but it kind of
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: feels that way.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think with MLB what it ends up being.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: I mean, you know, obviously Thursday of travel day, coming
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: into the weekend games. You know, you see kind of
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: a weaker schedule a lot of times on Mondays, but yeah,
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: Thursday is usually a day it's chopped up a little bit,
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: and then you know, you get the daytime games here
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: to get you know, a little cooler you know, maybe
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: in the uh during the day. But I know, yesterday
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: it kind of bought me out. Yes yesterday, especially on
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: FanDuel I had freaking Alvarez, you know, pitching for the Tigers.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: He goes out and like throws one inning, like y'all
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: didn't know it was about the rain, Like I was here,
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: it was obviously it was about the rain, Like what
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: were you doing sending them out? And then he comes
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: out in typical fashion, he acts like a damn baby
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: being in dudes, and just didn't seem like he wanted
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: to be out there, and you know, obviously pitch like shit.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: But yeah, so that one was kind of a didn't
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: kind of see that one coming, but nobody was really tongue.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: He's like twenty five percent home too on FanDuel and
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: in the contest I was in, so I thought I
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: thought that was a little bit. But uh yeah, Colin
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: likes I'm on the screwball. Yeah, man, it's my favorite
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: shot to do. But I can only do like three
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: of these screwballs because man, do I do anymore? It's
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: it's usually trouble, and I've been in trouble. I've slept
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: in front of the toilet after drinking one of these bottles. Matt,
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: you don't want to do that, that's for sure. But
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: uh yeah, exciting slate here. We got five games. Let's
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: dive into it. I mean looking at the pitching, dude.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: I mean when we're talking about Christian Scott, who's like
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: the only one that even has any strikeout capability pretty
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: much for the most part. That's MLB average. I mean
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Edwin Cabrera, Zebbie Matthews. I mean, maybe those got Waka.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: But I mean we're looking at like Merrill, Kelly Montero,
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: Kumar Rocker, Tyler Phillips, you know, all these guys that
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: percentages lower than twenty percent as far as strikeouts go.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: I mean, we're definitely not strike out hunting too too
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: much this game, this slate. I think it's more or
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: less who who Who's not gonna you know, who's not
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: gonna step on the bomb and blow you up? Like
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: you know, I'm almost just kind of wanting to feel
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: safe about it today. You know, like maybe like I
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: don't normally like to play a guy like Michael Waka,
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: but maybe today is a day that he's like stands
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: out just because of you know what we're sitting here
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: looking at today. But dude, it's some it's it's it's
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: rough sailing out there today. But I mean, just looking
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: at what we have through the ten pictures, I don't
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: know what it is, being honest there kick us off
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: for a minute or something there all that went on there,
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: But uh, Matt, what do you think here? Is there
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: anybody you even feel good about playing? Or I mean
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: I have to drink it all? Or what? So?
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: I feel like in theory, I love the way you
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: think about it and that like, yeah, just give me
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: two answers that Yeah, I'm here. Are you there? Yeah?
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: I don't know what's going on if we're like something
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: leg or something's weird in here. I don't know. Something
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: weird is going on.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Is it on my end?
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: No, I don't think so. Maybe i'm my I'm not
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: sure I'm hard wired in I don't know.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: I shouldn't be on my end. And I'll come back.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: I'll leave and I'll come back.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: Well, let's talk some pitches, all right, Okay.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: I guess people can say they can peer us both clearly,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: So I'll just talk about some pitching. I agree with you.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: I'd love two pictures that I just feel safe about.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean Christian Scott eighty three hundred. There's only
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: three guys over eight k here on the slate, waka
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: Matthews and Scott I mean, can't play Cabrera. I don't
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: like Rocker, Kelly Montero's got no strikeouts. I mean, to me,
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: it's Scott Waka the two i'd be looking at.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think Scott is the best of the worst
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: here because everyone stinks, but Scott projects the best. You know,
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: it just is what it is, that type of slate.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: This is how the cookie crumbles today. Christian Scott is
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: going to be really, really popular, but for good reason,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: because the options just aren't good. So I do think
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: he's the best of the worst. I think that's the
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: best way to put it. The problem with Waka is
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: I get why you'd feel that way with him, but
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure if those feelings are validated given how
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: he's pitching, giving the weather in Kansas City. I get
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: it just because again, there's no one I really like here,
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: But I don't really want to spend nine k on
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: walk up if I have unlimited salary. Sure, but I
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: do like expensive bats, so that I think that's my
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: problem with him. Edward Cabrera, I mean, it's really slim
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Pickens today, like Merrill, Kelly Cabrera, Hunter Dobbins is a
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: guy I'm looking at because why not. He at least
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: has a decently high k percentage, very small sample size,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: but I don't know, it's really it's really slim pickens.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: There's no one that I feel good about that I
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: like want to cout per se. So I think it's
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: Christian Scott is the best of the worst, and then
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: you know, playing kind of whoever you want after that.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: I mean, Scott hasn't been too bad. I mean he's
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: got a twenty eight percent strikeout percentage that that looks
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: pretty good. I mean when when you're just sitting here
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: looking at you know, the Saint Louis batters, I mean
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: you got twenty eight percent to the left side, I
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: mean they are they're they're gonna one, two, three, four
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: or five. They're gonna probably throw six lefties at him.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: The problem with Scott is is his walks. I mean
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: he's at eleven percent walk percentage on both sides. He
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: doesn't really get ground balls. He's been giving up some
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: fly balls to the right side, but very low barrel percentages.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: I think he's gonna given up one homer. So I
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: mean that would be the guy that definitely, as you said,
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: the best of the worst here, Uh, for sure. But
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: after that, yeah, I mean I see what you're saying.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: By paying down, like maybe a Dobbins of Phillips maybe
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: you could look at. But you know, other than that,
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think if you can get fifteen from
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: a pitcher today, you'd probably be pretty happy.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I'd lock anyone who gave me fifteen today
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: right now, no doubt about it. That type of slate. Yeah,
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: I just don't feel good about anyone here. It's I
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: think your Phillips call makes sense just because look at
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: who we're working with. The names just aren't good. Kelly
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: has been a guy like stacking against the season, he's
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: been got awful. But I'll get an ownership today because
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: that ballpark, the matchup. It's the type of thing I think,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: like you said at the if you can just survive
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: pitching here, that's all you want to do.
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with you. It's just not good. There's
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: really no upside at pitching today. Like I just it's it's,
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: like you said, one of the worst that we've seen
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: so far all year. But you know, I, let's okay,
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: how about this. Instead of us saying who we like,
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: we know what Scott, let's see if we can eliminate
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: a couple like who we wouldn't even consider playing. I mean,
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: we got ten guys, so for me, I would like
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: i'd have to say Cabrera I couldn't do. I couldn't
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: do Keller, I probably couldn't do Rocker, couldn't do Feldner
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: out there in cors I mean, yeah, it's starting to
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: get to heaven on hardly anybody you want to play.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: But yeah, it's tough, Like is there anybody that you
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: would literally say I don't want no part of.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: Feltner for sure? And man it's tough, Like if I
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: were playing one fifty, I wouldn't exclude anyone, even Feltner,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: just because like, the best thing I can say about
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: Feltoner in my opinion is the other options are so
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: bad that like every picture's liable to get blown up,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: and Feltoner maybe is just again, maybe he actually is
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: the best of the worst in reality, after this sleeve
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: plays out, I don't like him. I'm not gonna play him.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: I won't play Montero. I think I would leave Cabrera
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: in my pool more than you, But I don't feel
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: good about it. Man. My problem with like because ultimately
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: I have to play two guys in any lineup. My
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: biggest problem with eliminating anyone is that I just don't
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: like anyone. So I'm looking like at the guys that
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: I have to keep when I eliminate at people, and
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't like them either. But I'm with you,
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: like I'm building right now. I'm not playing Feldner, I'm
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: not playing Rocker, I'm not playing Montero. That's probably it,
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: and then we'll see where the cookie crumbles after that.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: I gotta say from Aaron here, it's pretty probably a
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: pretty safe statement. Pick your bat, stay and play roulette
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: with the pitcher, so you know, with the money you
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: have left. I mean, I don't feel today like normally
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: I always say when I'm looking at pitching, like, is
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: pitching gonna beat me today? Can pitching beat me? Like?
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: Do I gotta have like the Chris sale yesterday or
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: you know whatever? Like and there's no I have no
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: fear of that today like zero. And I know what
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna say, Any of these guys beat me.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: I agree, and I know what I was gonna say. Also,
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: when you were talking about Kristen Scott and his walk problem,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: I remember earlier this year. I used Scott in a
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: good matchup at home. Must have been like his first
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: or second start, he walked everyone. I mean he got
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: pulled in like the second inning because he walks so
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: many guys. So he's not like some bona fide ace obviously,
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: So I don't mind just playing whoever, like Aaron said,
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: filling in after you you pick your bats.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: Today, Yeah, that's for sure. I mean you sit here
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: and you're looking at you know, we always are chasing
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: upside strikeouts and all that fun stuff, and I just uh,
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: on this on this bunch here, we got these ten
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: they definitely aren't doing us any favors that way. But uh,
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: other than Scott, I mean, like I said, it's pretty much,
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: you know, just gobbled mess. So I would just kind
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: of mix them up. Feel you know, feel as we do.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: I hate to come on here as you saying, like,
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: you know, we don't feel strongly to the like, feel
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: out anybody. I mean we're here telling you Scott's the
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: best play. After that, I mean, you know, pick your poison.
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: That's why I kind of was saying, is there anybody
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: you just completely x out and uh, you know, maybe
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: try to reverse it that way, but uh yeah, definitely
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: a tougher pitching slate for sure, that is for sure today.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: But uh as far as bats go, as you guys
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: can see, I got the stone hold up here, so
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: we'll go through that one of our premium tools here.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: But we'll start out here with this first game, Matt,
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: and we have the Arizona d Backs here at one ten,
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: so the slate starts at one ten. We got three
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: games at one ten, then we got a two to
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: ten and then a three ten, so three of the
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: games are going off right in the opening window, Arizona
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: Miami being the first one. As you can see here,
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: the Marlins lineup at this point is confirmed. We got
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: the d Backs lineup confirmed or no, it's still projected.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: But I mean, is there anything you like here of
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: these two teams here? I mean, we're gonna have a
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: lot of fun with some offenses. I wouldn't say I
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: have either of these two ranked up really high. Obviously
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: we have a corse Field game with the Rockies and
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: Cubs I think are gonna get some ownership. But yeah,
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: I mean I think i'd have the Marlins probably ranked
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: ahead of the d Backs today, But yeah, I think
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: I'd have the Marlins just out my top five. I
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: think I had Dbacks a little bit lower.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: I have them both ranked pretty similarly, and I don't
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: like have them at the top of the list, but
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: I do think they have like a role on this
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: slate just because man Meryl Kelly is ass he stinks
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: and he's gonna get ownership today because of the slate.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: So the Marlins against him, yeah, I get on board
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: of that. Like they're not gonna project as well as
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: like the Cubs, but it's baseball. I mean, projections don't
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: matter as much as other sports, in my opinion at least,
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: so I could see planning my flag on the Marlins
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: here against a popular Merrill Kelly, who has just been awful.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: His last start I think was against the Nationals that day.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: They just wrecked the slate that Friday night, multiple home runs.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, he has just been bad, so I get
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: why people are playing him. He comes in with a
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: track record, he's been good in years past. But the
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Marlins I think are in play. And then Arizona, I
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: think their offense is good. I don't think Taylor Phillips
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: is particularly good. I don't think he's awful, But I
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: wouldn't be shocked at either of these teams won the slate.
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: It's a small slate, you know, if cors doesn't cores
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: like we saw last night, it was a low scoring game.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: The Cubs have been pretty bad for a while now.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: I could see either of these teams being needed just
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: because they both have power and they both run a
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: little bit. So yeah, I don't have them ranked at
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: the top, but I do like pieces and probably mini
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: stacks more than more than big stacks.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: I like this one here from Avery Baryl Kelly. That's
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: pretty much it too. But I mean, yeah, he did
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: give up that. I mean they lost fourteen to won
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: that game. He gave up seven earned runs, five innings,
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: and gave up three homers in that game that you
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: were referring to against the Nationals. I mean, Kelly, you know,
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: he just he really hasn't been good. His walk percentages
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: are even high, like the dudes guys. I mean he's
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: walking uh uh ten percent to lefties, which isn't good.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: His his k rate to lefties is eleven percent. I
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: mean that's not good at all. I mean, guy like
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: Carl Stowers, Liam Hicks, I think they're all in play.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: Edwards doesn't play. I like some of these lefties too,
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: for the Marlins, a little bit more than I do
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: the d Backs. But Philip's saying any better with Walks
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: himself either. I mean, this guy walks twelve percent of
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: right he's almost eleven percent of lefties. I mean in
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: mid ground ball, lean little bit more fly balls to
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: the right side. But you know he hasn't been getting
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: barreled all that much. Either. But yeah, Merril Kelly has
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: not been good here recent times. Miami at home, and
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: you know, I think Miami is a decent stack because
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: they're hard clicks, right, Like nobody wants to click out
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: a bunch of these Marlins and stack them up right
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: like you're you're you're playing names like you you got
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: to go look up you know who they are, where
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: they're from, like you don't. I mean, they're just not
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: household baseball names.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: Like I also don't think the Sims will be giving
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: them either. So to combine that with that, I don't
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: think the Sims will be giving them out either.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: Go ahead, sorry, yeah, no, that that comes into play too,
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: Like you run the dry runs and you know the
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: certain teams are popping you know that are cheap and
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: you know have upside and they're not coming up either.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: But yeah, attacking Merrill Kelly has definitely been an adventure
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: that's worked out for us here in recent times. I mean,
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: he was good there for a good stretcher at the
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: beginning of May. He had a couple of good starts,
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: but he has not been good his last few starts.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: So I want to say he's given up what niner
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: and runs in in ten innings, giving up five homers,
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: so not being.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: Good, so bad. And pains me to say this pains
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: me to say because I'm a fan of his, like
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: coming into the year he had been good for a
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: couple of years at a couple of stretches where he
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: was really good last year, but man, you just laid
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: the numbers out beautifully. He's been one of the worst
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: pitchers in baseball this year. Like you could make a
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: case he's been the worst starter in baseball even those
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: two good starts. I think he had a lot of
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: luck there. And again I'm a Meryel Kelly fan, like
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: I want to get on board with him today because
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: the pitching is so weak. But I think I like
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: the Marlins.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: More yeah, I tend to agree that. Like I said,
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: I got the Marlins, you know, just outside my top.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: I put him kind of in the middle of the bunch,
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: but I'd have the d Becks a little bit lower.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: As as we move forward here, but next game we
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: got a total of nine, We got Saint Louis at
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: the Mets, another one ten start, we got Dobbins going
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: against the Mets, and then we have Christian Scott going
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: against the Cardinals here. Like I mentioned, Scott's gonna be
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: the chalkiest pitcher. I think he's gonna be fairly chalky.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: He does have some walk issues, as you mentioned that
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: one game, he doesn't really get too many ground balls.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: He's not per Sae a ground ball pitcher. He goes
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: up way more fly balls, almost double to the right
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: side than he does the left side. I mean, the
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: Cardinals are probably gonna have six lefties in there, so
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: I kind of like he's able to keep the ball
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: on the ground a little bit there against against the Cards.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean, you can get some hell leverage
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: here if you if you want to stack up the Cardinals,
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't leave them out of my pool just because
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: of that. Here, I mean, I think they're kind of
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: interesting just because of what you're gonna get on Scott.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: If he's not right and he's not getting the ball
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: over the plate, I mean, it could go south in
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: a hurry. I mean, none of these pitchers are any good,
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: So I mean I just think that. I mean, if
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: we're looking at if over fifty percent owns Scott like,
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think the Cardinals definitely want to play here.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they've been good too. I mean they won this
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: slate last night with Philly Jordan Walker. They got guys
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: they run also, man Like, couldn't you see if we
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: had I don't know, just a little bit of a
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: different slate with like cors was taken out, you had
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: like Schooble pitching for Detroit and like another ace pitching.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: I could see Saint Louis being popular here. But just
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: because of how the slate plays out, we've got corps
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: bad pitching all over. Scott, whether he is or he
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: isn't projects as the best of the worst, so he's
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: gonna get played as such. Cardinals will just get left out.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: I'm with you. If I were playing one fifty I
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: certainly wouldn't leave them out. I mean, I'm not sure
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: how many lineups it would take for me to play them,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: but in any non Scott lineup, they're really appealing.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: I'm with you, Yeah, I mean just because of the level.
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: I mean I think truly that's the really really you know,
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: eleverage spot we're gonna see today, you know, like where
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: I think you could attack, you know, the ownership that
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: you know we're gonna see on on Scott. So, uh, definitely,
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: I think don't mind that, that's for sure. I see
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: him getting teased a little bit of Brewers and a's
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: that's all right, Hey, it's baseball. But I mean, shit,
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: that stadium and they keep playing that stadium. I mean
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: they hit a ton of homers in that I wouldn't
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: have baseball throughout the SoC ball so that they didn't
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: hit any homers. I mean, who knows.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, as you said at first, it's base.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: Alright, like yeah, right, all right. So we'll move on
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: here with the Mets in cards. You don't want any
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: part of the Mets, do you. I'm not interested in
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: any Mets. I can't force myself to play any of
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: these Mets. I mean maybe a little bit, you just do.
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't say to me at all.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: So all right, let's move here to the next one
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: we go. We have my Tigers sitting at a game
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: total nine and a half here against the Twins. Zebbie
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: Matthews definitely has some strikeouts to the left side, which
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: he could attack some Tigers here. He's at twenty seven
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: percent to the left side, twelve and a half percent
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: to the right side. Uh. He put up forty percent
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: fly balls to the left side, so he's either striking
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: you out or I mean his barrel percentage are prettyhigh
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: thirteen percent to the right side, ten percent to the
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: right side. I mean, Tigers can definitely hit the ball
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: in the air with some of these lefties they have,
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: But I mean the strikeout percentages. Carpenter strikes out quite
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: a bit. We know Riley Green can strike out. So
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think this is the one here with
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: Zebbi Matthews. You know there are some strikeouts to be
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: had there. But I mean, do we how much do
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: we like the Tigers today or we want to go
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: after Zebi Matthews. I'm not really too much a fan
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: of it. I think I'd rather have the Marlins than
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: the try to go after Matthews here. I think I
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: like them a little bit better as far as like
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: the Minnesota bats against Montero. I mean, he doesn't strike
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: anybody out, he does get the ball over the plate,
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: got a pretty high ball, ground ball lean to the
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: right side, fly balls more to the left side. You know,
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: guys like Cody Clemens, Larnick brooks Lee. I mean, maybe
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: you could look at that. I mean, but Buxton obviously
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: could play him anytime. Dude's been on fire here in
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: recent times. But I mean I don't mind attacking Montero
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: and the Tigers here with some twins. The Tiger bullpen
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: has not been good here recent times, so to me,
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: I think twins are definitely in play. I think I
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: like the Twins probably more than you know. I'll put
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: them outside that Cors game. I think they're in my
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: top in my top stacks. I'll put them outside the
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: Cores game. I'll put them up there with maybe you
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: know they're up there with the Royals, I would say
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: on this on this slate, but yeah, I put the
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: Twins up there. I think we could attack Montaro.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: Definitely think you can attack Montaro. But for me, man like,
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: just because of how this slate is and how many
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: good offenses there are. I'm gonna for me their lower
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: ranked just because I like the Arizona Miami game at
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: least as much. I like the Case See Texas game
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: more and I like the Corps game more so. This
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: game's in the middle. For me, I like it more
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: than the Cardinals and Mets, but I just don't love it.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: I'm fully aware that either side could break the slate
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: because the pitching is very iffy, but just other spots
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: I like more. I feel like, for me, if I
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: were playing either Detroit or Minnesota, probably more full stacks.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: Both of them are pretty affordable, so yeah, I could
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: see planning my flag on either of them. I just
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: don't know if I'm personally gonna do that. That's just
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: the type of slate we're dealing with where every offense
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: could conceivably break the slate.
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I with Matthews. I mean the Tigers been playing
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: a little bit better. They're awful in May. I mean
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: they've come out and played a little bit better in
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: this first week or so week and a half of June.
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean I Zebbie Matthews, I mean with
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: the strikeout capability, you know, i'd I think I'd just
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: rather use maybe some one offs here from the Tigers,
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: if you wanted to go that some power hunting, maybe
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: I think that would be the best bet. But like
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: I said, I put the Twins outside, uh the the
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: Corus game. I mean, I I don't have them like
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: rank one or two or even three, but i'd have
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: them out there. I think I think it's up there
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: for me top five stack, but uh, I don't. I
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: wouldn't say I overly love it. I think there's some
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: that are a little bit better. But I think attacking
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: Montaro isn't the worst of decisions. He's been giving up
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: runs three or four almost every start, giving up a homer.
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I think, uh, I think the Twins are
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: definitely in play. All right, let's see here, we got
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: two games left here to talk about. We'll get into
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: some of the fun games as we get into the
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: two o'clock slate. There is a little bit of weather issues.
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: We're uh that we're gonna wear it. The wind is
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: blown out big time here in Kansas City, almost like
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: twenty two two miles an hour. I'm seeing Dead Center
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: and it's warm. It's like almost ninety degrees out there today.
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: You got a guy at Kumar Rocker on the hill.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: Walk percentage pretty high the left side, not really striking
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: out all that much twenty percent the left side, seventeen
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: percent to the right side. Fly balls are higher the
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: left side twenty six percent. Got a pretty good ground
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: ball lean to the right side. But these lefties here
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: of the of the Royals are definitely interesting. He's got
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: a ten percent barrel rate to the left side, almost
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: six percent to the right side. So I want some
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: lefties here for these Royals against against Kumar. So you know,
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: guys with Jensen, Vinnie keg Leone, I think you're all
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: in play. But as far as some Texas bats go, sorry,
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: I got like something stuck in my throat or something.
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: Maybe I need to get the bong out. But either way, Waka,
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: I generally don't like picking on Waka. He seems to be,
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: you know, a guy that just generally don't seem to
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: get blown up. I do like some of these Texas lefties. Oh,
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: he has been getting buriled up by left He's eight
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: and a half percent. Flyball percentage is at almost thirty
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: two percent, So I mean, if you're gonna get to Waka.
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: Lefties are the way to go. So seeger Nimo Carter,
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: I think are in play. I really like Seger today.
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: But I put both these teams up there. As you said,
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: I mean this game. If I was to look for
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: some bats other than the course game, I think this
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: would be just because of that weather, that wind blown out.
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: I think that's gonna come into play. But yeah, I
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: mean we know they move defenses in Kansas City. Now
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: we got a big win game total bumped up a
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: little bit, So yeah, I think both pieces of this
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: game are good. But I actually prefer the Royals normal
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: normally I don't, but we got a little small slate
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: here today, especially with that wind blown out, So yeah,
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: give me some Royals. I put the Royals third behind
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: my behind the two course field teams.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I like the Royals too. Here. I like Texas
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: and the Royals this game. You got really good weather
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: here kind of busted the first two games, but they
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: got going a little bit late yesterday. Caglione at two
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: bombs the day before. I think both sides wildly and play.
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: I have this game right outside of cores is the
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: top two stacks on the board, but it's close all over.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: Only really the Mets and Cardinals are like lower on
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: my board, but even those teams, like on another slate,
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: would be higher. So I like the Royals and Rangers
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: quite a bit. I think planning your flagut either one
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense.
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm laughing at Aaron here saying I'm choking, like
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: Wemby's free throws and the Spurs in the second half,
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: twenty nine point lead and you lose, Like come on, man,
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: like that's just terrible. Twenty nine and lose. But I'll
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: tell you all right now. I after I didn't see
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: it live yest year, I woke up this morning and
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: saw what happened. You know, first thing goes in my mind, Man,
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: this shit's still going seven. I just have a feeling
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: it's still going seven. I just I don't know, I
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: just have a feeling it's going seven. So I wouldn't
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: doubt if the Spurs win the next two games. It
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: just seems like that just seems like, you know them.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: I got a feeling they're going back to the MSG,
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: that's for sure. I think Spurs win the next game
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: pretty easily. But they could easily win. I mean, they're
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: up twenty nine. I could. I just got a feeling
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: this one's going seven for some reason. But I'll tell
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: you on the other side that hockey, man, A hockey
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: series is something else man, that's actually fun to watch.
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: But hey, we got baseball here. That's what we're concentrating
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: on here. Make some money here today during this daytime slate.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: But we can walk right into this the Marquee game
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: we're sitting here at eleven today, the Cubbies, we got
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: the Rocky sitting out there in corps. We got Edwin
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: Cabrera who's not been good. We got Ryan Feldner, who's
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: not been good. I mean this game here, late game
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: in the window. I think you're winning money around one
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: third two o'clock today, you better think twice because this
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: late game here is gonna run you down more than likely.
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: But uh yeah, I mean just kind of looking at
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: it here, what do you think, naids I'm laughing at
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: Naid's here saying it's fixed. I mean there's a lot
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: of that on Twitter, if you go on Twitter here
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: in recent days, there's there's a lot of talk about
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: sports being fixed. I mean Akunya holding up the balls
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: and you know, saying one was bigger than the other,
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: one's heavier and the other. I mean, there's all kinds
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: of shit they've been going on here in recent times.
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: But man, marquee game here. I mean both these two
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: teams are top of my list here today. I mean
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: you can just game stacked one game stack this if
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: you want. I don't think that's necessarily a bad idea.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: Maybe throwing some one offs for some power if you want,
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: But uh, I mean pretty much late game in the window.
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: It's gonna get a lot of love here in this one.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: So what do you think here?
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Man, I mean what's not to like? Right? Like?
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: The only thing you would say is ownership, and that's valid,
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: especially with the Cubs. They've been pretty bad, but man,
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: amazing hitting whether Ryan Feltner, I'm with you. I think
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: you're winning money early. Better not count it too fast
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: because this game's coming quickly. So yeah, it's hard to
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: fade the Cubs here. The only reason you would do
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: so is ownership. But we play an ownership game, so
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: we like some other offenses. I think you can build
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: good lineups without the Cubs, but I think the Cubs
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: have the highest ceiling. And then the Rockies. Yeah, Cabrera.
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: I've always been a fan of his arm talent, but inconsistent.
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: It doesn't really seem like the spot for him to
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: get right. Rockies definitely in play have massive upside as well.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: We saw them home a couple of times in the
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: first game of the series. So yeah, I don't think
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: you're crazy to game stack this game playing a flag
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: on one side, but you probably do want some exposure
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: here no matter what.
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I gotta agree. I mean, that Rockies lineup comes out,
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: we'll kind of see what the bottom of that line
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: lineup looks like. To see, you know, maybe there'll be
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: some value bets for sure, But as far as any
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: pinch hit risk go, I mean, I think, you know,
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: maybe with some Rockies bottom of that lineup, like Julian
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: somebody like that might be a pinch hit risk that
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: we're gonna have to watch for. As far as the
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: Cubs side, you know, maybe they'd pinch hit. I mean,
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I think they just pretty much leave
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: that lineup the way it is. I don't think there's
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: as rit big of a risk as a pinch hit
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: rick with the Cubs. But yeah, I mean, both these
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: teams definitely standing out. You know, obviously we talked about
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: this game here all week, We've been talking about it.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: But you mentioned the Cubs not been hitting very well.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: You know, you pull up team stats, they're like bottom
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: six of all baseball in the last two weeks even
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: the last week in ops and slugging, and you know
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: they've been playing in some decent condition too, so obviously
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: they've not been hitting at all. Rockies are actually like
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: in the last two weeks, they're like number up in
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: the top five, you know, slugging in in the last
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: couple of weeks.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: So so for something like you, like, I know, you
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: take a lot into that, Like how does that make
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: you feel about the chalkiest team on the slate today? Like, honestly,
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: if you're playing one lineup, are you playing the Cubs
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: or you fading them?
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: To tell you the truth, in most instances, I would
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: fade them because you hear me talk about all the time.
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: I don't like playing teams. But this is a five
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: game slate, so it's a little bit different. I feel
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: like I feel like this is the elephant in the
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: room right, Like I still feel like I need pieces
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: of it, maybe not full pieces. Maybe I go after
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: a couple of the lefties that I want, you know,
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: like Bush, I mean we all.
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: Like I do, think they run a weird lineup today too.
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: I mean, they very well made the daytime games. You know,
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: generally pick catchers, don't, you know, come back the next
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: day daytime games stuff like that, Right, so we could
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: see a little bit of a mixture, but a little
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: bit different lineup. But I mean, yeah, I mean I
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: don't generally like playing teams that are cold, you know,
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: like it's just something I've always kind of lived by,
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: Like if they're not hitting, they're not hitting, why am
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: I trying to force it? And the other thing too,
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: Like I feel like I always talk about the Brewers,
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: like Brewers hit a lot of ground balls. When the
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: Brewers are facing our ground ball pitcher, it's really tough
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: for me on a big slate to play someone like that.
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: They score sixteen runs at one day against the ground
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: ball pitcher. They end up getting most of it, but
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: they really weren't even winning the slate in most occasions.
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, we talked about that like a week ago.
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: I mean, you know, it is what it is. The
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: Brewers have had the last couple of weeks it's going
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: to improve their numbers overall, because I mean, let's face it,
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: they were in course before they were in Vegas, So
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: I mean they've had you know, some pretty nice hitting
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: conditions in the last couple of weeks to bump up
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: their I mean, I think I mentioned it yesterday and
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: like the last six games. I think those two teams
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: out there, the Brewers and the A's, I think they
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: had like nineteen homers or something in six games. Like
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: it was unreal, Like it was just they were hitting
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: a ton of homers. That's what I felt. Like that
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: game yesterday, we saw the floor like you know, and
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: they hit six homers. I mean that stadium. I mean,
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: overpast it's always been these high level stadiums with the heat,
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: you know, going to Mexico. So we've already had a
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: history of this, like and it panned out like I
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: literally brought up in twenty twenty three, man, we had
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: over under a twenty and a half in an MLB
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: game with the Giants. Plan Like the Giants weren't you know,
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: we never considered the Giants to be some you know,
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: powerhouse team in the last few years, so like twenty
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: and a half and it went over like like it
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: went over like you know, I just I believe, you know,
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: that to be something to be said there. So but hey,
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: that's over. But we still have a course fields game
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: eleven total. Uh, you know, we don't have really any
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: good pitching to speak of in that game. So yeah,
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: I think I prefer the Rocky side. For me, the
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: Rockies are my top team. Everyone else is gonna say Cups.
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: I think the Rockies for me, I'd be overweight on
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: the Rockies on my teams today. Cubbies I definitely include,
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: but maybe just go after some of the power bats, so,
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: you know, top of that line, I think that's the
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: way I'd approach it. Maybe throw in some other guys
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: for you know, maybe I go just a Rocky stack
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: and then I throw in some bats that I think
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: can get some hit, some homers and fill me in.
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: If it's a couple of Cubbies and so be it,
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: then it's a couple of Cubbies. If it's you know,
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: somebody else, I like, I kind of like to mix
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: up my I don't like to do the four to
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: four on Fan Duel or the five to three on DK.
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: On smaller slates like this, especially when you have such
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: a chalky pitcher. I just I kind of like to
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: mix up my my line up almost kind of like
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: a hybrid cash lineup with the tournament lineup. Like I
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: got my tournament side of the stack, but I still
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: got my cash side with guys that can fill in
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: that I think have some upsides. So I feel better
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: about doing things like that because that will make you
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: different instantly, even if you play the chalkier pitchers. So
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: you know, I think that's a good way to attack
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: some of these, you know, smaller type slates, especially where
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: we're gonna see quite a bit of ownership on you know,
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: certain things. So yeah, I think I think this one
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: is definitely a decent slate as far as like to
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: be different with some bats. But yeah, I mean definitely
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: pitching is like I said, get the screwball out. I mean,
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: it's gonna be one of them slates. And now don't
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: get mad if your pitcher gives up a bunch of
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: runs or so in the first inning. If he still pitches,
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: you still got a chance. You just want outs today,
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: like you want your guy to get you fifteen to
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: eighteen outs today, Like if anybody gets a quality start
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: I'd be surprised for one. So you know, I just
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: that's what I think. I'd rather play down, you know,
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: play down and uh pay pay down for pitching today.
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: And like Nate said, so many good hitting spots. You
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: know why condents on Koby's Mega chalk I kind of
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: feel the same. You know. It's not because they're chalky,
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: it's just because they haven't hit for shit, Like they're
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: not hitting like I'm not trying to jam something in
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: that and just force it in. I just I don't
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: feel that way. I play rather play the teams that
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: are hitting well. Rock fit that bill for me.
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it makes sense, I mean especially I figured you
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: would say that considering how you like to play, and
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: I got no arguments with that. I mean as yeah,
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: you just said, like, there's a ton of other really
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: good spots today, So why pigeonhole yourself if you know
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: you don't have to and no one has to. Like
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: for me, I've been playing the Cubs, so it's hard
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: for me to get off them here. But ownership is
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: big on this slate and they're gonna be by far
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: the highest selling them, so definitely thinking about it and
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: the merit of Geff getting away from them is real.
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: I mean they haven't been good and they're gonna be
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: crazy popular and they're expensive. The bad combo.
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. I mean Aaron say, nothing helps the
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: Vivee Moran Feltner in the Colorado bullpen. Yeah, we we understand.
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: I mean there's five games like it's I mean, I
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: thought Lorenzen.
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: I thought Lorenzen in the bullpen would help. The vibes
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: would be my counter to that. Like they were awful
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: again last.
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: Night, right, Yeah, they were bad Lorenz and bad. Feltner's bad.
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: I mean it's got to be a tough gig to
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: be pitching in Colorado too. I mean, that's just got
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: to be tough within itself. But we've gone through the
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: five games here, we got a little shorter slate, got
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: some daytime baseball, which will be a lot of fun.
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: I know. We got all kinds of sports still going on.
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: We got golf and all the other stuff. So make
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: sure you guys get over there check us out. Five
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: days nineteen bucks with the code ship at nineteen so
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: but great time to check us out, get honed in
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: before football. We've added some new the new slate plan
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: feature that we have here. I know that seems to
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: be going over very well with that new improvement that
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: we added here the first of June, so if you
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: haven't seen it yet, go check it out. It's very helpful.
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: So that's definitely something here we're always looking to add
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: and you know, improve our product here at ship It.
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: So it was glad to see that. But Matt, before
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: we run out of here, he got any last words,
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: won't you give me your favorite stacks? Yeah, I know,
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: pitching's tough. Maybe give me a couple of pitchers that
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: you like and then let's just we'll throw a home
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: run out there. It seems like Maids and I have
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: been pretty good with the homers. I called Harper yesterday
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: hit one. Nid's called Olsen the other day he hit two.
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: So we've been doing pretty good on some home run calls.
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: But who you got for some stacks and some favorite pitching?
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, first off, I'm glad you call that that
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: slate station because that's awesome. So the new stuff over there,
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: be sure to check that out. We're still on the
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: discord and we're still doing cores, so all that stuff
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: is available on the site, and I'm glad you mentioned
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: it as far as my home run call goes today,
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: I feel like there's so many options to choose from.
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with a guy that I only gets
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: played much just because of his price tag and the
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: stack isn't going to be owned, and he's a legit,
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: you know, massive upside guy. Every lady's on Corbyn Carroll
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: going yard.
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: Today, Corbyn Carroll. I like Corman Carroll. Corman Carroll. Uh,
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: It's always been a favorite of mine. I think for me,
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: you know, I could be easy go to that course
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: Field game. I'm not going to do so. I am
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: going to go to that Texas and Kansas City game
• 41:23

• 41:29
  Speaker 2: get one done. Mister, I'm not Italian, but I played
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: on the Italian baseball team in the Baseball Classic. Just
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: because your name was Italian, I get it, But I
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: mean still would have been a fun experience to get
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: over there and play in that. I would have even
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: if I was the American and they asked me to
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: go play on the Hungarian team because my last name
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: is Jerrozen, I'd be like, hell, yeah, let's do it. So,
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: but Matt, appreciate you joining me today.
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: That's a good old run call. I love the vinp call.
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I appreciate it. But hey, I'm gonna beat both

• 42:10
  Speaker 2: That dude is going to uh he's been hitting the
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: ship out of the ball. Mister Buckeye himself is I
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: think it might be one of the only BUCkies I've
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: ever seem to come to like Matt, you know, like
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: being a Michigan fan. It's kind of hard even.
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: Though through too he's I think he's from Canton, I believe, so.
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I know, I know he is. I've heard
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: some conversations like how he came up to Michigan and
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: you know, dealing with the Michigan fans and all that
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: because he's a Bucky. But it's all right, Hey, Dylan
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: Dingler is definitely a great call as well, Michael. But hey,
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: that's gonna do it for us. I gotta put some
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: cors up there in that slave plan for us today.

• 42:58
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure, so I might be able to hop
