- 0:08Speaker 1: All systems going clear. We left of what is going
- 0:41Speaker 1: on ship at Nation YouTube station back with my guy
- 0:44Speaker 1: gem Rising. I'm on the go, so we're operating off
- 0:48Speaker 1: one screen here making it happen for the people in
- 0:50Speaker 1: the chat. Appreciate you you're tuning in here, gim Rising.
- 0:54Speaker 1: We got seven games right on DraftKings Wednesday. Obviously, usually
- 0:59Speaker 1: there's a bunch of daybase there's an afternoon slate. DraftKings
- 1:01Speaker 1: just says, screw it all. We're just gonna go with
- 1:03Speaker 1: the standard start time are close to it and FanDuel
- 1:06Speaker 1: likes to do a bunch of random crap. So seven
- 1:09Speaker 1: games on the main Draftking slates should be a pretty
- 1:12Speaker 1: good one. From a weather standpoint, there's a couple of
- 1:14Speaker 1: weather spots Miami at Atlanta a little bit of worry,
- 1:19Speaker 1: they're not too bad, and then the Twins in Royals
- 1:23Speaker 1: a little bit of a worry there too, which does
- 1:25Speaker 1: stand out because Twins do look like the on paper
- 1:29Speaker 1: best spot on the slate. We know how that works out,
- 1:32Speaker 1: so we'll talk about it. But bring you in man,
- 1:34Speaker 1: what's going on? Brother? Happy to happy to be back
- 1:36Speaker 1: with you. I know I wasn't here yesterday. Bellman filled
- 1:40Speaker 1: in on my travel day yesterday. So we're finally set
- 1:43Speaker 1: up shop here in Orlando and looking forward to breaking
- 1:45Speaker 1: down this seven game slate with you. What's up, brother?
- 1:50Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I always fund to talk some ball with
- 1:52Speaker 2: you and all the fellas here over at ship It.
- 1:55Speaker 2: But yeah, down there in Orlando, huh has you got
- 1:57Speaker 2: that one of them fancy Airbnb's. I mean seems like,
- 2:00Speaker 2: oh there is anymore down in Orlando. It's fucking Airbnb
- 2:04Speaker 2: Central down there was just down there not too long ago. Myself,
- 2:07Speaker 2: matter of fact, nates tomorrow, I will not be here
- 2:09Speaker 2: with Matt as I am leaving in the morning to
- 2:11Speaker 2: go to a up North river tubin trip with like
- 2:14Speaker 2: twenty of my friends.
- 2:15Speaker 3: Wife's fiftieth birthday.
- 2:17Speaker 2: That's what she wanted to do, was have a weekend party,
- 2:20Speaker 2: and that's what we're gonna do. So looking forward to that.
- 2:23Speaker 2: But yeah, we had a big game slate yesterday. We
- 2:26Speaker 2: got a weird slate today, eleven games on FanDuel they're
- 2:30Speaker 2: starting early six thirty five, and then we got seven
- 2:32Speaker 2: over here on DK, so definitely interesting.
- 2:36Speaker 3: All the dust is kind of settle out of the
- 2:38Speaker 3: trade deadline. I know, I haven't got to speak to you.
- 2:40Speaker 1: Yet.
- 2:40Speaker 2: Being a Brewers fan me a Tigers fan, I'm kind
- 2:43Speaker 2: of anti schoobl at this point.
- 2:45Speaker 3: I just not really like the fact how he left,
- 2:47Speaker 3: and you.
- 2:48Speaker 2: Know, and if it wasn't for him open his big
- 2:50Speaker 2: fat mouth that he was only going to sign with
- 2:51Speaker 2: the Dodgers, maybe a team like the Brewers or the
- 2:54Speaker 2: Rays or somebody else would have had a rightful chance
- 2:57Speaker 2: to try to trade for him. But that's the lanst
- 3:00Speaker 2: ape of baseball here at this point. But yeah, I mean,
- 3:03Speaker 2: Tigers are young. They're gonna go for it, you know
- 3:06Speaker 2: here in the next year or two, I would assume,
- 3:08Speaker 2: and maybe some guys we'll see, but they got a
- 3:10Speaker 2: pretty decent core. But I mean, we saw a lot
- 3:13Speaker 2: of names move, a lot of teams, you know, change
- 3:15Speaker 2: some change some players. Uh doll goes over to Cleveland,
- 3:19Speaker 2: you know, we saw you know, I mean, it's just
- 3:20Speaker 2: all kinds of things that uh that that that happened.
- 3:24Speaker 2: So kind of interesting time here in baseball. But yeah,
- 3:27Speaker 2: we're starting to see some of these, uh you know,
- 3:29Speaker 2: these prospects coming up.
- 3:31Speaker 3: You know, we had Max Clark coming up out of
- 3:33Speaker 3: the gate Man. He looked really good.
- 3:35Speaker 2: Uh. His first couple of games and he was like
- 3:37Speaker 2: min price and all the sites. We had George Lombard
- 3:40Speaker 2: yesterday who comes up for the Spankyes, boom boom, hits
- 3:44Speaker 2: a bomb his first Dampton game, So you know, he
- 3:47Speaker 2: was real cheap yesterday. So something is to think about
- 3:50Speaker 2: as we move along. You know, some of these prospect
- 3:52Speaker 2: guys getting a chance here toward the end of the
- 3:54Speaker 2: season get some good value here on the slates. So uh, definitely,
- 3:58Speaker 2: uh something that I look forward to. But yeah, pretty
- 4:02Speaker 2: interesting slate here, Nate's we got seven games to uh
- 4:06Speaker 2: to take a peek at.
- 4:07Speaker 3: But you know, pitching isn't uh all that great.
- 4:10Speaker 2: I mean we got mister mister Skeins here who hasn't
- 4:14Speaker 2: looked too good in his recent form. But yeah, I
- 4:17Speaker 2: mean interesting one for sure. We don't have the biggest
- 4:20Speaker 2: of names.
- 4:20Speaker 3: Out there here today as far as uh uh you
- 4:26Speaker 3: know some strikeouts go that you'd beout.
- 4:31Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the interesting in and I'm not sorry
- 4:34Speaker 2: the Dodgers lost in Roy.
- 4:35Speaker 3: That's kind of funny.
- 4:37Speaker 1: Yeah, no, so yeah, you got me? Is it me
- 4:42Speaker 1: or is it you checking you? Is that or is
- 4:46Speaker 1: it meet? Yeah?
- 4:48Speaker 3: All right, you got okay, I'm wired.
- 4:53Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I'm yeah, I'm on the Wi Fi here,
- 4:56Speaker 1: so yeah, no, the Schooball stuff, I all the Brewers
- 5:00Speaker 1: offered up Pena and then to one other for sure,
- 5:04Speaker 1: top one hundred prospect, and I know the talks are
- 5:09Speaker 1: obviously three prospects, right, The Brewers were willing to They
- 5:12Speaker 1: were kind of the front runner until Dodgers emerged late
- 5:15Speaker 1: right with the news of Otani might not be able
- 5:17Speaker 1: to pitch all the time, things like that, right, and
- 5:20Speaker 1: then Scooball opens his mouth and says, I was going
- 5:22Speaker 1: to go to the Dodgers anyways. Dodgers were going to
- 5:24Speaker 1: buy him in the off season anyways. So I mean
- 5:26Speaker 1: it makes sense, but I'm kind of glad, to be
- 5:28Speaker 1: honest with Brewers didn't punt off a ship for a
- 5:31Speaker 1: three month rental. I mean, it would have still been
- 5:34Speaker 1: hard to beat the Dodgers anyways in the playoffs when
- 5:37Speaker 1: Glass snow comes black and Blake Snell right at full
- 5:41Speaker 1: health and that lot that roster and I mean, who knows, right,
- 5:44Speaker 1: everyone's an injury away anyways. So I'm kind of glad
- 5:47Speaker 1: because the Brewers, like the Tigers, right do have a
- 5:50Speaker 1: very young core and tight knit group, and they do
- 5:53Speaker 1: still have the best record in baseball, right with with
- 5:57Speaker 1: kind of the guys they have, right. So, Cooper Pratt
- 5:59Speaker 1: another young guy that came up earlier, he's starting to rake.
- 6:02Speaker 1: You mentioned Lombard, he's been crushing. Max Clark's been raking
- 6:06Speaker 1: since he came up. We're gonna have a lot more prospects,
- 6:08Speaker 1: I think, coming up, especially when we get the added
- 6:11Speaker 1: rosters right right before the playoffs things like that. So
- 6:14Speaker 1: definitely interesting for DFS, and usually you find some nice
- 6:17Speaker 1: value guys, right because DraftKings is usually slow to the
- 6:20Speaker 1: slow to the click. I mean, Max Clark's been raking
- 6:23Speaker 1: and he's thirty one hundred, right. Cooper Pratt had like
- 6:26Speaker 1: an incredible July, He's thirty five hundred, right, So all
- 6:29Speaker 1: of these guys are going to be a reasonable price
- 6:32Speaker 1: and does help from the DFS perspective. But yeah, you
- 6:35Speaker 1: alluded to it. Paul Skeins Chalk Knight pretty interesting spot.
- 6:40Speaker 1: I mean, everyone just because the pitching is weak, just
- 6:42Speaker 1: wants to go to Paul Skeins. I know he has
- 6:45Speaker 1: seven plus strikeouts in what each of his last four
- 6:48Speaker 1: but at that price point, at that ownership in a
- 6:51Speaker 1: pretty tough matchup, not just because I'm a Brewers fan,
- 6:54Speaker 1: it is realistically it's a pretty tough matchup for any
- 6:56Speaker 1: starting pitcher. And I played some Jered Jones last night.
- 6:59Speaker 1: He was kind of cruising and then they jumped on him, right,
- 7:02Speaker 1: So Skeens is definitely gonna be the talking point when
- 7:05Speaker 1: they do talk pitching. Here, I'm gonna go ahead and
- 7:06Speaker 1: pull our still in two point zero up on the
- 7:10Speaker 1: screen here. Bear with me as I'm kind of navigating
- 7:12Speaker 1: just off of one screen here, but we do have
- 7:14Speaker 1: the entire pitching pool up on the screen here. Gee, rising,
- 7:20Speaker 1: We'll go eight K and above, So let me sort
- 7:22Speaker 1: this by salary. Here, eight king above, you got Urie
- 7:25Speaker 1: Perez facing Atlanta all the way up to Paul Skins,
- 7:28Speaker 1: the most expensive guy on the slate, the highest owned
- 7:30Speaker 1: guy on the slate. I mean, he's going to be
- 7:32Speaker 1: single entry stuff, pushing fifty sixty percent ownership. Mm me,
- 7:36Speaker 1: forty forty to fifty percent ownership. And I don't know.
- 7:40Speaker 1: He doesn't seem right. Something seems maybe he's injured, maybe
- 7:43Speaker 1: there's something going on there. Obviously, he was incredible last season.
- 7:48Speaker 1: Hasn't been the same. Paul Skins this year. He does still,
- 7:51Speaker 1: I mean he still is a good arm right, he
- 7:53Speaker 1: is still but highest oone guy in the slate. It
- 7:56Speaker 1: is just shorter slate. Ownership is going to be there.
- 8:00Speaker 1: Pretty tough matchup overall. So talk to me, how are
- 8:03Speaker 1: you approaching Paul Skins. It's really a three headed race
- 8:06Speaker 1: in terms of ownership on the slate from pitching and
- 8:08Speaker 1: then nothing else really matters. It's Paul Skeens. It's probably
- 8:13Speaker 1: let me go to hold on, let me hide the
- 8:15Speaker 1: FanDuel stuff here, let me just go DK. So in
- 8:18Speaker 1: terms of ownership, it's Paul Skins, It's Kyle Harrison at
- 8:21Speaker 1: eighty five hundred in that game, and then it's probably
- 8:24Speaker 1: Brian Wu against your Tigers. Maybe a little Sean Berk
- 8:29Speaker 1: and then maybe a little Yuri Prez, but it's really
- 8:31Speaker 1: headline between Harrison's, Skeens and Brian Wu. I think in
- 8:37Speaker 1: terms of ownership, Dry Runner would agree, how are you
- 8:39Speaker 1: approaching those three guys and then anyone else up here
- 8:41Speaker 1: above ak that you have interest in?
- 8:45Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean just looking at Skeens here against Milwaukee.
- 8:48Speaker 2: I mean you were right, we were talking about Skeens
- 8:50Speaker 2: like his last thirty days. I mean, his strikeout percentage
- 8:54Speaker 2: has been there. There's nothing wrong with that right side.
- 8:56Speaker 2: He's up at like thirty to the less. But what's
- 9:00Speaker 2: kind of worries to him is is he been getting
- 9:01Speaker 2: barreled up quite a bit by the left side here
- 9:04Speaker 2: in the last month or so. Barrel percentage at ten
- 9:08Speaker 2: point six percent, ground ball rate pretty low flyball rate,
- 9:12Speaker 2: and almost at twenty eight percent.
- 9:14Speaker 3: I mean he give it up.
- 9:15Speaker 2: He's given up eleven earned runs, I believe in his
- 9:17Speaker 2: last sixteen innings thirteen hits. So that's not Paul's schemes like.
- 9:22Speaker 2: But I mean this Brewer matchup, I mean Cheerio's twenty
- 9:26Speaker 2: four percent, Garrett Mitchell thirty two, yell As twenty seven percent,
- 9:30Speaker 2: pretty much everybody else is in the team strings at
- 9:33Speaker 2: twenty three percent, So I mean he doesn't have too
- 9:36Speaker 2: many strikeout beats over here with the Brewers. And then
- 9:40Speaker 2: you know, you also then look at the matchup here,
- 9:44Speaker 2: and I mean he's also an underdog, so you're gonna
- 9:49Speaker 2: have the highest own pitcher is going to be an
- 9:50Speaker 2: underdog as well. So I think that is definitely something
- 9:54Speaker 2: to be said. So you know, I mean usually I
- 9:57Speaker 2: played two or three teams on fan duel. I'm not
- 10:00Speaker 2: gonna feel the need to jam up the Skeins. I
- 10:03Speaker 2: don't feel like I need to do so.
- 10:05Speaker 3: You're right.
- 10:06Speaker 2: The strikeouts have been there, but he has been getting
- 10:09Speaker 2: beat up a little bit. Don't know, maybe Livy Dunn's
- 10:12Speaker 2: giving him a little bit extra loving at home or something.
- 10:14Speaker 3: I don't know. I wouldn't blame him neither. I'd be
- 10:16Speaker 3: off too, if you know, if that was at home
- 10:18Speaker 3: every night.
- 10:18Speaker 2: But yeah, so Harrison you mentioned I think is Uh
- 10:23Speaker 2: is interesting running back in that game. I mean he's
- 10:27Speaker 2: coming back off he's coming back off the Yeah.
- 10:30Speaker 3: I don't think he's thrown.
- 10:32Speaker 1: Yeah, he has in his in his last start. I
- 10:35Speaker 1: think it was in the minor. I think he pitched
- 10:39Speaker 1: for the Timber Ratlers right in Appleton, right by kind
- 10:43Speaker 1: of where I live. Went like five and a five
- 10:45Speaker 1: and a third with six strikeouts, something like that, a
- 10:47Speaker 1: couple of hits, no urn runs. I didn't see his
- 10:50Speaker 1: pitch count, but I think he's pretty stretched out. They
- 10:53Speaker 1: kind of waited a while and kind of made sure
- 10:57Speaker 1: he's pretty ready to go, especially with the woodror face
- 11:00Speaker 1: and obviously not getting not getting school off the deadline
- 11:03Speaker 1: so I don't see a ton of concern there with
- 11:07Speaker 1: Kyle Harrison. So I think he's good to go, And
- 11:10Speaker 1: eighty five hundred is pretty damn cheap price point for him. Obviously,
- 11:13Speaker 1: it's not the best matchup in the world, but yeah,
- 11:14Speaker 1: go ahead.
- 11:16Speaker 2: Yeah, it looks like I was looking while you're talking,
- 11:17Speaker 2: there sixty eight pitches in his in his rehab start,
- 11:20Speaker 2: so that's not bad. I mean he could get up
- 11:22Speaker 2: to easily eighty eighty five. That's basically what we're looking for.
- 11:27Speaker 2: I mean that's where he was a majority of the season.
- 11:29Speaker 2: He's been in between eighty and ninety five pitches, So
- 11:33Speaker 2: I don't feel too bad with that. So Harrison definitely
- 11:36Speaker 2: doesn't play like we said. He's definitely a favorite there
- 11:39Speaker 2: eighty five hundred, So I don't mind him. Brian Wu,
- 11:43Speaker 2: I think he I mean he looks he looks decent here,
- 11:47Speaker 2: but I mean you just go back and look at
- 11:49Speaker 2: Wu here.
- 11:50Speaker 3: He's got the Tigers.
- 11:51Speaker 2: Wu has not looked good at all in his last
- 11:54Speaker 2: handful of starts, giving up Earn run five and runs
- 11:57Speaker 2: five and runs his last two ten Earn runs. I
- 12:00Speaker 2: mean it's been two or three here here quite a
- 12:03Speaker 2: bit I mean just kind of looking at the Tiger game.
- 12:06Speaker 3: I mean you're looking too.
- 12:07Speaker 2: I mean you got an over under of seven and
- 12:09Speaker 2: a half with Drew Anderson pitching back for the Tigers.
- 12:12Speaker 2: So the Tigers here with a pretty low run total
- 12:16Speaker 2: three point five. WU strikeout rates have been down a
- 12:20Speaker 2: little bit to the right side in his last thirty days. Overall,
- 12:23Speaker 2: to the right side, he's at twenty five and a
- 12:24Speaker 2: half percent, twenty four percent.
- 12:26Speaker 3: To the left side.
- 12:28Speaker 2: WU gets builed up, it gets hit a little harder
- 12:30Speaker 2: by lefties. Fly ball percentage at thirty three percent for
- 12:35Speaker 2: the left side. We do know the Tigers and McGonagall, Green, Clark, Torkolsen,
- 12:41Speaker 2: but I just don't think this is really the spot
- 12:43Speaker 2: I want to try to jam out there in Seattle.
- 12:45Speaker 2: I think WU is as decent as K props decent.
- 12:49Speaker 2: It's sitting at six and a half here tonight. So
- 12:52Speaker 2: with that being said, I think that's that's interesting. The
- 12:56Speaker 2: Tigers do have.
- 12:57Speaker 3: Some do have some k's over there in that line up.
- 13:00Speaker 2: Torkelsen thirty two, Clark. Clark's known the strikeout as well.
- 13:06Speaker 2: He had a lot a bunch of strikeouts in the minors.
- 13:09Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean mcgonald will only the strikeout Torres
- 13:12Speaker 2: twenty percent, Dingler twenty one, Keith twenty Hobby twenty So
- 13:17Speaker 2: I mean there's some strikeouts to be had there for Wu.
- 13:19Speaker 2: That six and a half strikeout prop I think is
- 13:24Speaker 2: fairly interesting. Anderson against Seattle, I'm not I'm.
- 13:28Speaker 3: Not going there. I think Burke against Boston.
- 13:31Speaker 2: But dude, I just feel like it's like shooting yourself
- 13:34Speaker 2: in the foot trying to play against the Red Sox
- 13:36Speaker 2: here in recent times, Like the Red Sox haven't been
- 13:38Speaker 2: fucking around.
- 13:39Speaker 3: Like they've they've been.
- 13:41Speaker 2: They've been pretty good here recent times, obviously winning a
- 13:45Speaker 2: bunch of games. But Uri Perez against Atlanta, I don't
- 13:50Speaker 2: overly love it. But you know, I could I could see.
- 13:55Speaker 2: I mean I could see maybe if you if you
- 13:57Speaker 2: wanted to look at that. I don't like that match
- 13:59Speaker 2: up at all. Eighty three hundred I think is a
- 14:02Speaker 2: little bit much. I really don't like the upside with
- 14:05Speaker 2: the k's he's gonna have. Man, I just will warn
- 14:11Speaker 2: I mean, I know he's a little bit below a K.
- 14:13Speaker 2: I think he's tough for me. He's got a bunch
- 14:16Speaker 2: of a bunch of lefties. I mean I think it's tough. Rogers,
- 14:21Speaker 2: I'm not really interested in here.
- 14:23Speaker 3: I mean for me up at the top.
- 14:25Speaker 2: I mean I think schemes would be in play Woo's
- 14:28Speaker 2: and play like you mentioned Harrison, I think I could
- 14:31Speaker 2: stretch to, you know, maybe trying to take a chance
- 14:34Speaker 2: on somebody like Rogers if you wanted to go there.
- 14:39Speaker 2: I mean, maybe Burke if you wanted to get there.
- 14:41Speaker 2: I don't love it because I don't like the matchups.
- 14:44Speaker 2: I just don't think pitching is overly strong here today,
- 14:46Speaker 2: and the guy that's gonna be the most highly owned,
- 14:49Speaker 2: I think you can poke some holes in him. So
- 14:51Speaker 2: I think I'd rather take some chance, especially in tournaments
- 14:54Speaker 2: with some pivots, maybe build my lineup out and see
- 14:57Speaker 2: what I kind of have left and kind of go
- 14:59Speaker 2: from there. But yeah, I mean I was saying FANDU,
- 15:02Speaker 2: you gotta be perfect with your pitcher choice. With the
- 15:04Speaker 2: one but two pictures tonight, I think is gonna be
- 15:07Speaker 2: fairly tough. But I think a lot of people, as
- 15:09Speaker 2: you mentioned, they're gonna see schemes there. And I mean,
- 15:12Speaker 2: like I said, he's an underdog. The strikeouts have been there.
- 15:15Speaker 2: He's just been getting hit hard here. Recently hasn't looked
- 15:18Speaker 2: all the great. You got a bunch of people are
- 15:20Speaker 2: gonna play him the night, So for me, I mean
- 15:22Speaker 2: it kind of makes sense.
- 15:23Speaker 3: Why you know you probably want to fade him tonight.
- 15:26Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, if there's one guy that I'm gonna
- 15:29Speaker 1: be under on amongst the kind of three headed race
- 15:32Speaker 1: of Skiings, Wo or four I'll call it four Burke, Wu,
- 15:36Speaker 1: Skeens and Harrison, it's probably Schmes, just because I don't know.
- 15:42Speaker 1: I think he can get the strikeouts, but like the strikeouts,
- 15:44Speaker 1: I mean, seven strikeouts doesn't really matter at ninety eight
- 15:47Speaker 1: hundred if he gives up or ninety six hundred if
- 15:50Speaker 1: he gives up a couple of runs, gives up some hits.
- 15:53Speaker 1: Like the strikeout, I mean you're basically looking at four
- 15:57Speaker 1: strikeouts then three or four strikeouts, right based on how
- 15:59Speaker 1: the draftking scoring work. So he's the one guy I'm
- 16:02Speaker 1: gonna be selling on Sonny Gray, not messing with him.
- 16:05Speaker 1: Casey Maies, I think maybe a little bit interesting there,
- 16:08Speaker 1: just a new face, new scenery out there in that spot.
- 16:12Speaker 1: Arizona's not the worst place to pitch. Arizona hasn't been
- 16:16Speaker 1: kind of lightening it up, So I don't mind him
- 16:18Speaker 1: if he wanted to be spent up to be contrarian,
- 16:20Speaker 1: nobody's really going to play Casey Maies. I don't hate
- 16:23Speaker 1: that Brian Wu. I think Brian Wu is pretty solid here.
- 16:28Speaker 1: I think you could play both sides, just like you
- 16:30Speaker 1: could with pretty much any especially on a pitching slate
- 16:33Speaker 1: like this. I think when we talk hitting, there's definitely
- 16:35Speaker 1: gonna be some spots where I think we can play
- 16:37Speaker 1: the bats against these guys that people are rostering. Just
- 16:40Speaker 1: that's just the way the slate shakes up, and usually
- 16:42Speaker 1: this happens when we get to kind of these points
- 16:45Speaker 1: of their rotations. So I don't I think Wu's pretty interesting.
- 16:49Speaker 1: Six and a half k prop looks pretty good to me.
- 16:52Speaker 1: Tigers do have some guys that are hitting. Mcgonag goes
- 16:55Speaker 1: On been on a tear torres some of these other guys.
- 16:58Speaker 1: But there is strike ups we have. You talk about
- 17:01Speaker 1: mac Clark, He's got probably two strikeouts wait waiting for
- 17:04Speaker 1: Brian Wu there with his forty percent strikeout right there.
- 17:08Speaker 1: So I don't mind that. Burke I think is pretty
- 17:10Speaker 1: interesting as a tournament option. He ranks really good in
- 17:13Speaker 1: our pitcher rankings. Nobody's gonna play him, especially after last
- 17:16Speaker 1: night's seen Boston, right, how good they've been. They've been
- 17:19Speaker 1: the best team in baseball over last month, twenty one
- 17:23Speaker 1: and five or twenty two and five. I think I
- 17:26Speaker 1: saw obviously they won last night thirteen put up thirteen runs.
- 17:30Speaker 1: I do think Burke is interesting. He's been locked in
- 17:33Speaker 1: eighty seven hundred good price point low ownership ranks. Well,
- 17:37Speaker 1: I think he's pretty interesting. Kyle Harrison would be my favorite,
- 17:40Speaker 1: just because I think the ownership is nice. I don't
- 17:43Speaker 1: mind the matchup, and yeah, I mean you're probably looking
- 17:48Speaker 1: at eighty to eighty five pitches, which he hasn't really
- 17:50Speaker 1: been pushed much more than that anyways, like you alluded
- 17:53Speaker 1: to earlier. So for me, it's Harrison, Burke, Brian Wu
- 17:56Speaker 1: kind of the three main guys I'm playing up here.
- 17:58Speaker 1: Casey Miz I think is the interesting tournament option. Don't
- 18:01Speaker 1: really want to mess with Yerie Perez against the Braves.
- 18:05Speaker 1: Just don't really want to pick on Atlanta right now.
- 18:07Speaker 1: So for me, it's kind of those four guys, and yeah,
- 18:10Speaker 1: being being under on Paul schemes down below eight k
- 18:14Speaker 1: I think there is some guys to mess with a
- 18:18Speaker 1: little bit down here, But how do you see below
- 18:20Speaker 1: eight K talk on some of these other guys like
- 18:24Speaker 1: will Warren value play a Bryce Elder at seventy four
- 18:27Speaker 1: hundred and not usually Bryce Elder guy, but it is
- 18:29Speaker 1: the Marlins. They did trade away some guys like Liam
- 18:33Speaker 1: Hicks there, so which obviously you like lefties against Elder.
- 18:37Speaker 1: Marlins are still going to be able to throw out
- 18:38Speaker 1: some lefties against Bryce Elder there, But seventy four hundred,
- 18:42Speaker 1: I mean he's projected to be right around ten to
- 18:44Speaker 1: fifteen percent ownerships, nothing too crazy, and he Noah Cameron
- 18:48Speaker 1: love for you anyding Dean Kramer against the Royals there,
- 18:51Speaker 1: it's pretty gross, but on this type of pitching slate,
- 18:54Speaker 1: I don't think it's the worst play. And then what
- 18:56Speaker 1: about Andre Polante in Yankee Stadium, a little groundbo guy.
- 19:01Speaker 1: How do you see the lower value tier?
- 19:05Speaker 3: Yeah, the lower value.
- 19:07Speaker 2: I think there's only really two guys that I think
- 19:11Speaker 2: that I'd look at, you know, I do I like
- 19:14Speaker 2: Dean Kreamer against against the Royals, and then on the
- 19:18Speaker 2: other side of that game, I think Noah Cameron is
- 19:21Speaker 2: interesting in both sides of that. I mean, it's just
- 19:25Speaker 2: because I think you're gonna get some You're gonna get
- 19:27Speaker 2: some outs in that game. I'm not really you know,
- 19:32Speaker 2: chasing this one for some strikeouts. Kramer, what I think
- 19:35Speaker 2: is interesting. He's got a twenty nine percent strikeout rate
- 19:38Speaker 2: against some righties, so I think he could you know,
- 19:42Speaker 2: he's gonna see Bobby Witt, Salvador Perez, Lofton, he'll get
- 19:47Speaker 2: to I mean, he's got Rave and Jensen are pretty
- 19:50Speaker 2: high strikeout bats, so but I mean, Kramer has been
- 19:53Speaker 2: getting bailed up a little bit.
- 19:54Speaker 3: It's been giving up.
- 19:55Speaker 2: A ton of fly balls, so that is definitely a concern.
- 20:00Speaker 2: His K props only four and a half, but I
- 20:03Speaker 2: think I could stomach some some being cre at forty three.
- 20:07Speaker 3: I mean, it's ugly.
- 20:08Speaker 2: I'm not playing them on fan duel, that's for damn sure,
- 20:11Speaker 2: but I think you could possibly go there. Noah, Cameron,
- 20:15Speaker 2: you know, I mean, that's just another another ugly one.
- 20:18Speaker 2: He's got a twenty three percent k percentage to the
- 20:22Speaker 2: to the left side. He's at twenty one percent to
- 20:25Speaker 2: the right side. There really isn't that many strikeouts in
- 20:29Speaker 2: this Twins lineup. They're all in the mid teens, low twenties.
- 20:34Speaker 2: So I you know, I'm I don't love it, but
- 20:38Speaker 2: I do think that, you know, he.
- 20:40Speaker 3: Could eat up some innings. I mean that's what we're
- 20:42Speaker 3: kind of looking for.
- 20:43Speaker 2: Polante against against the Yankees, I can't really do that.
- 20:47Speaker 3: I think the Yankees hit quite a few fly balls.
- 20:50Speaker 2: Whenever I get a ground ball pitcher, I just like
- 20:52Speaker 2: a team for me that can get the ball up
- 20:54Speaker 2: in the air hit some fly balls.
- 20:57Speaker 3: Uh. The Yankees are pretty good overall a team with that.
- 21:01Speaker 2: They brought in Garcia in Ramos, who are actually they're
- 21:04Speaker 2: two lowest fly ball guys in the in the projected
- 21:07Speaker 2: lineup here tonight. So yeah, I think Polante for me
- 21:11Speaker 2: is I mean, he ain't gonna miss any bats, that's
- 21:13Speaker 2: for sure. So uh, it's interesting ground ball percentage in
- 21:17Speaker 2: the mid fifth fifty seven percent to the left side
- 21:19Speaker 2: fifty four. But like I said, I think the Yankees
- 21:22Speaker 2: and that lineup just got longer too. And then they
- 21:24Speaker 2: had that kid and makes that stack a little cheaper.
- 21:27Speaker 2: Lombard and should I even heard his brother hit a
- 21:29Speaker 2: home run too, got moved up like in Triple A
- 21:31Speaker 2: was like the same damn game like time, like both
- 21:34Speaker 2: of them almost literally at the same time hit a
- 21:35Speaker 2: home run, which I know the parents they showed something
- 21:39Speaker 2: on Twitter or something like that, and I know they
- 21:41Speaker 2: were they were pretty excited. But I mean, Names, we
- 21:44Speaker 2: got seven games for me. I mean, like I said,
- 21:46Speaker 2: we picked out our guys up at the top that
- 21:49Speaker 2: you know, the schemes. Wo you mentioned Mys. I think
- 21:52Speaker 2: mis does worry me. Here on the radio here, Maids,
- 21:55Speaker 2: they were kind of ripping on how mys was making
- 21:58Speaker 2: a big deal. The Tigers never even made him an
- 22:00Speaker 2: offer when he would have been a free agent at
- 22:01Speaker 2: the end of the year. So they were just saying, oh,
- 22:03Speaker 2: the Tigers never they didn't even want them, They didn't
- 22:06Speaker 2: want him back. So apparently he didn't even get an
- 22:08Speaker 2: offer from the Tigers. I think it's just because he's
- 22:10Speaker 2: had so many injuries. He was a number one overall
- 22:13Speaker 2: draft pick, had a lot of injuries. But I mean,
- 22:16Speaker 2: his velocity's been down a little bit here, his pitch
- 22:19Speaker 2: count's been down. They held him out of his last
- 22:20Speaker 2: start before he got traded. Uh So, I mean I'm
- 22:23Speaker 2: a little bit concerned with his with his something going
- 22:27Speaker 2: on with him, Like I feel like he's a little
- 22:29Speaker 2: bit off right now. And I think the Tigers felt
- 22:31Speaker 2: that way too. They babied him to get through the
- 22:34Speaker 2: All Star break. They literally pitched Scooball, which everybody was
- 22:37Speaker 2: crying about, how would you pitch Scooball. Well, that's because
- 22:39Speaker 2: they had to show that his injury was good to
- 22:41Speaker 2: get him more time. Like nobody'd be worried about it,
- 22:43Speaker 2: and they're like, well, why would they sit in my Well,
- 22:45Speaker 2: that's because he's hurt, and he would. They were trying
- 22:47Speaker 2: to get him through so they could at least get
- 22:48Speaker 2: something for him, because if he got hurt again, he'd
- 22:50Speaker 2: be done and never come back. Tiger's never getting nothing
- 22:52Speaker 2: for him. They ended up getting a couple of prospects,
- 22:55Speaker 2: the number two prospect out of San Diego for him.
- 22:57Speaker 2: So to me, I'd be little concerned with myz. But
- 23:01Speaker 2: I do see the reasoning we got a short top
- 23:03Speaker 2: pitching slate. I mean, there ain't a ton of guys there,
- 23:05Speaker 2: so he does have a little bit of upside there.
- 23:07Speaker 2: So I don't hate that, But I just like I said,
- 23:10Speaker 2: little concern Harrison, I think is good. But for me,
- 23:14Speaker 2: I mean maybe I'd take a small chance on Cameron
- 23:17Speaker 2: and Kramer would be my two guys in the bottom.
- 23:19Speaker 2: But I think I'd be pretty tight in my pool
- 23:21Speaker 2: today with Harrison, Burke, Wu, and then Paul Skans here tonight.
- 23:27Speaker 1: Yeah, I like a lot of what you said. Noah,
- 23:28Speaker 1: Cameron is kind of my favorite down here just because
- 23:31Speaker 1: Number one, I think it leverages the Minnesota ownership. I
- 23:33Speaker 1: think Minnesota is going to get a ton of ownership
- 23:35Speaker 1: from the bat's perspective because of their price points. It
- 23:37Speaker 1: allows you to spend up for pitching, which does seem
- 23:40Speaker 1: like the route to go tonight. Most teams are going
- 23:42Speaker 1: to be inchored around Paul Skins and then one of Burke, Harrison,
- 23:46Speaker 1: Brian Wu, and then kind of inchored around majority of
- 23:51Speaker 1: the stacks. At least dry Run would spit out. I mean,
- 23:55Speaker 1: it's spit out a bunch of San Diego and a
- 23:57Speaker 1: bunch of Minnesota. So that's kind of what you're looking at.
- 24:00Speaker 1: How the slate shakes up. No Cameron, four and a
- 24:03Speaker 1: half k prop not too bad at that price point,
- 24:06Speaker 1: and we're just looking to try and survive. I'm not
- 24:08Speaker 1: expecting him to go out there and strike out a
- 24:09Speaker 1: bunch and throw a complete game shot out or anything,
- 24:12Speaker 1: but I mean the price is right. Sixty six hundred
- 24:15Speaker 1: get you on a different roster instruction than kind of
- 24:17Speaker 1: what the field's doing, so I don't mind him. Dean Kramer,
- 24:19Speaker 1: I'm a little less interested in just because of the
- 24:21Speaker 1: recent form hasn't been there. I haven't really been a
- 24:25Speaker 1: Dean Kramer guy either, but I do think he makes
- 24:28Speaker 1: some sense. It's probably no cameraon and Bryce Elder actually,
- 24:30Speaker 1: to be honest for me, the two guys down here,
- 24:35Speaker 1: one guy did want to kind of circle back to
- 24:37Speaker 1: any interest in Yearie Prez. I know, I don't love
- 24:40Speaker 1: picking on the brae, but your Prez has been locked in.
- 24:42Speaker 1: I mean, he's been really, really good over his last
- 24:44Speaker 1: five starts. He does have a five and a half
- 24:46Speaker 1: k prop. He is going to be unowned on a
- 24:49Speaker 1: slate where pitching's pretty gross. He's eighty three hundred, kind
- 24:52Speaker 1: of the cheapest of the top tier. Any interest, I'm
- 24:55Speaker 1: kind of now after looking through the slate and seeing
- 24:58Speaker 1: what we're dealing with, I don't think Yerie Perez is
- 25:01Speaker 1: the worst player in the world. After he gets kind
- 25:02Speaker 1: of past the top five, I mean, it's which is
- 25:05Speaker 1: no easy task by any means, right, But after that,
- 25:08Speaker 1: I mean the lineup kind of drops off. Any interest
- 25:12Speaker 1: in him. I mean, the props are pretty solid on him.
- 25:15Speaker 1: I know he doesn't rank the best in our picture rankings,
- 25:17Speaker 1: but as an unknowned guy, I don't think it's the
- 25:19Speaker 1: worst play in the world.
- 25:22Speaker 2: He's been one of them guys that have been that
- 25:23Speaker 2: kind of picture that you know, you seem like you
- 25:26Speaker 2: plug him in on a whim. He's actually had I know,
- 25:29Speaker 2: he's worked out for me a couple of times. I
- 25:32Speaker 2: just don't really prefer the matchup there, but I mean
- 25:37Speaker 2: there is there is some upside there as you met.
- 25:39Speaker 2: I mean he's been I mean he's been allowing a
- 25:41Speaker 2: lot of hit hard hits. Five balls are up pretty high.
- 25:47Speaker 2: I mean to me, the Braves, you know, you look
- 25:49Speaker 2: at their strikeout bats. I mean that's maybe what I'm
- 25:52Speaker 2: more a little bit concerned about. Like towards the bottom
- 25:55Speaker 2: of that lineup is where you're going to see the
- 25:57Speaker 2: strikeouts with Austin Riley and Murphy everyone else.
- 26:00Speaker 3: You know, it's in the high teens, low twenties. So
- 26:04Speaker 3: I don't love it.
- 26:05Speaker 2: And Uri Prez the last month has not been very
- 26:07Speaker 2: good to the right side. He's got a seven percent
- 26:09Speaker 2: walk k rate. Walk rate's been at like ten percent,
- 26:13Speaker 2: so I mean that's just a little bit concerning for me.
- 26:17Speaker 2: And you know you mentioned the Braves. You know that's
- 26:20Speaker 2: usually a tough adventure. But you know what, honest late,
- 26:23Speaker 2: like today we got seven games, Like, it's not like
- 26:25Speaker 2: we got a plethora of you know, oh, these are
- 26:27Speaker 2: great strikeout arms that stand out to you. You know,
- 26:30Speaker 2: we got a few guys that think are going to
- 26:31Speaker 2: be fairly chalky. So yeah, I mean, if you're playing
- 26:34Speaker 2: a bunch of teams, sure, I think you should definitely
- 26:36Speaker 2: mix in some of the like Demises the Uri Prez.
- 26:39Speaker 2: I'd kind of put them in the same kind of bucket,
- 26:41Speaker 2: you know, for me. So yeah, I don't mind that.
- 26:43Speaker 2: I don't love it. Me playing two or three teams,
- 26:45Speaker 2: I probably wouldn't get to that. I think I just
- 26:48Speaker 2: try to get a little bit different with some bats
- 26:50Speaker 2: and probably eat up some of that chalk in that
- 26:53Speaker 2: pitching chalk in that Pittsburgh Milwaukee game here tonight.
- 26:56Speaker 3: So yeah, I think that's pretty much where i'd look.
- 26:59Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean interesting, interesting slate that we got
- 27:03Speaker 2: for pitching.
- 27:04Speaker 3: I mean there's, like I said, there's nobody.
- 27:05Speaker 2: That stands out to me that I feel like, you know,
- 27:07Speaker 2: it's going to kill me tonight that where I can't.
- 27:09Speaker 3: If I don't have him, I'm just gonna be dead
- 27:11Speaker 3: in the water.
- 27:13Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you're looking at chasing strikeouts and Urie
- 27:15Speaker 1: Press obviously we know he's he's a big strikeout volatile
- 27:18Speaker 1: arm anyways, right, so like kind of slate where pitching
- 27:21Speaker 1: is pretty volatile. I mean people are talking up Sean
- 27:23Speaker 1: Burke against the hottest team in baseball right in good
- 27:26Speaker 1: hitting conditions in Fenway Park. I mean, that's kind of
- 27:30Speaker 1: where I'm looking at. It's not a main team play
- 27:33Speaker 1: by any means, but I do think and in tournaments,
- 27:35Speaker 1: Casey Maiz and Uri Pres are kind of interesting in
- 27:38Speaker 1: the top tier, but realistically your pitching pool should be
- 27:40Speaker 1: anchored kind of around Wu Harrison schemes if you want
- 27:46Speaker 1: to go there, even though I don't love him and Burke,
- 27:48Speaker 1: those are kind of the four main guys looking at.
- 27:50Speaker 1: And then Noah Cameron's my favorite favorite value guy. Let's
- 27:54Speaker 1: jump over here and go ahead and share the stone.
- 27:58Speaker 1: First game on the slate, we are going back to
- 28:01Speaker 1: Yankee Stadium here for the Cardinals and the Yankees. This
- 28:06Speaker 1: game has been or this series has been producing runs.
- 28:10Speaker 1: Yankees look pretty good here. I mean they're gonna get
- 28:13Speaker 1: some ownership, but nothing, nothing out the out of the craziness.
- 28:17Speaker 1: I mean between them, probably the Braves for sure, or
- 28:21Speaker 1: not the Braves, the Twins for sure, probably some Royals
- 28:26Speaker 1: as well against Dean Kramer. I mean, ownership is going
- 28:28Speaker 1: to be kind of spread out all over the board
- 28:30Speaker 1: from a hitting perspective, so nothing nothing to worry about.
- 28:33Speaker 1: How do you see the first game here? Cardinals and Yankees?
- 28:36Speaker 1: Blante grand ball guy, But you mentioned right, Yankees all
- 28:39Speaker 1: pretty much hit the ball in the air. It's not
- 28:41Speaker 1: the best hitting environment here in Yankee Stadium tonight, but
- 28:45Speaker 1: there is some slight win kind of blowing out towards
- 28:47Speaker 1: left field here, which is still another short porch. Temperatures
- 28:50Speaker 1: in the mid seventies here, and we know how bad
- 28:53Speaker 1: that Cardinals bullpen is talk to me here? Do you?
- 28:55Speaker 1: How do you see this one?
- 28:58Speaker 3: Yeah? I mean I like the Yankees. I mean the
- 29:00Speaker 3: Yankees do stand out.
- 29:01Speaker 2: Like I said, I like all the fly ball percentages
- 29:04Speaker 2: against uh Polonte. I mean he's got a three nineteen
- 29:07Speaker 2: waba against leftist the left. He's been getting to him
- 29:10Speaker 2: a little bit more. He's, like I said, like you mentioned.
- 29:14Speaker 2: I mean, the ground ball rates are pretty high, fifty
- 29:16Speaker 2: seven percent left side, fifty four to the right side.
- 29:19Speaker 2: Fly ball percentages right about eighteen percent to both sides,
- 29:23Speaker 2: as walk rates are fairly low. He's not really you know,
- 29:26Speaker 2: obviously striking anybody out.
- 29:29Speaker 3: So you know, there's there's.
- 29:31Speaker 2: You know, ways that you know, your hopes and dreams
- 29:33Speaker 2: could get crushed by Andre Polante. But I mean the
- 29:36Speaker 2: thing I look at too is that bullpen behind him
- 29:40Speaker 2: is one of the worst in baseball.
- 29:42Speaker 3: So I think that's definitely interesting.
- 29:44Speaker 2: I mean, you might get four or five innings where
- 29:46Speaker 2: you know, the Yankees have two runs, and then the
- 29:48Speaker 2: next thing, you know, you know, the next toward the
- 29:50Speaker 2: end of this game here, they could roll off, you know,
- 29:52Speaker 2: get on a run there and roll off five or
- 29:54Speaker 2: six runs and end up with eight or nine spot.
- 29:56Speaker 2: So I could definitely see that happen against the against
- 30:00Speaker 2: the bullpen here. But yeah, I mean, I think it's
- 30:03Speaker 2: dangerous anytime you really stack against the groundball lean type pitcher.
- 30:07Speaker 2: So I don't generally, you know, I don't like to
- 30:09Speaker 2: go overly heavy on that. I do like to you know,
- 30:12Speaker 2: the fact that the bullpen behind him is shitty, So
- 30:15Speaker 2: I think that something.
- 30:17Speaker 3: That I'd be interested in.
- 30:19Speaker 2: And then as far as the other side with the
- 30:22Speaker 2: with the Cardinals here against Will Warren, I mean, Will
- 30:25Speaker 2: Warren has not been very good here in recent times.
- 30:27Speaker 2: Lefties have been getting to Will Warren. So you know,
- 30:30Speaker 2: weather Hill Burlson, I think is interesting.
- 30:32Speaker 3: Church.
- 30:33Speaker 2: You know, you got some lefties here for the Cards.
- 30:36Speaker 2: You know, I don't have it, as you know, one
- 30:38Speaker 2: of my my favorite overall stacks here today. But I think,
- 30:42Speaker 2: you know, the Cardinals, I wouldn't, you know, definitely write
- 30:47Speaker 2: them off, so to speak.
- 30:48Speaker 3: But you know, in my.
- 30:49Speaker 2: Brain too, it's a it's kind of hard because you know,
- 30:51Speaker 2: I'm gonna be playing on FanDuel. We got four of
- 30:53Speaker 2: the games, like you know, like Philly's Reds for me,
- 30:56Speaker 2: Nationals for me are teams that I I like, can
- 31:00Speaker 2: probably gonna play tonight.
- 31:01Speaker 3: They're obviously not on the DK slate.
- 31:03Speaker 2: But I mean, like I said, Will Warren has not
- 31:06Speaker 2: been very good against some of the lefties, So I
- 31:09Speaker 2: don't mind it. It's not in my favorite but yeah,
- 31:12Speaker 2: I think the Yankees though, are a good stack here tonight.
- 31:16Speaker 2: But man, i'd lay caution to that that ground ball
- 31:19Speaker 2: pitcher we got in Plante.
- 31:23Speaker 1: Yeah, I just hate stacking against ground ball guys. I
- 31:25Speaker 1: probably actually rather kind of mini stacked the Yankees here,
- 31:29Speaker 1: kind of power hunt. Louis Garcia has been been kind
- 31:31Speaker 1: of red hot right now. Spencer Jones's home runner or
- 31:33Speaker 1: bust pretty much. I mean it's home runner, strikeout with him.
- 31:36Speaker 1: But Trent Grisham has been locked in, so I think
- 31:38Speaker 1: like a Trent Grisham, Louis Garcia a little mini stack
- 31:41Speaker 1: or going to the back half and punting with value
- 31:44Speaker 1: like McMahon, Ryan McMahon, Austin Wells, Lombard, something like that
- 31:49Speaker 1: Jazz after his pimp shot last night. I think the
- 31:52Speaker 1: Yankees definitely look good overall. It is another interesting note.
- 31:56Speaker 1: Pinch hit risk is probably pretty minimal here. There's only
- 31:59Speaker 1: one left in that Cardinals bullpen. He did throw twenty
- 32:02Speaker 1: four pitches, justin rule threw twenty four pitches on Tuesday
- 32:06Speaker 1: or on Monday, so I don't Maybe he could go
- 32:09Speaker 1: again if they needed him, but probably more than likely,
- 32:13Speaker 1: you're you're gonna see Alrighty's here. You're probably gonna see
- 32:17Speaker 1: Alrighty's here from the Cardinals' pitching staff. I just do
- 32:21Speaker 1: worry a little bit into ownership against the ground ball guy.
- 32:24Speaker 1: I know Plante is not a great pitcher by any means,
- 32:27Speaker 1: but I mean he's fairly serviceable real life pitching arm.
- 32:31Speaker 1: But that Cardinals bullpen man is miserable. So even if
- 32:34Speaker 1: Plante goes out there and gets you his five even
- 32:37Speaker 1: six innings, I mean, you could still see three innings
- 32:40Speaker 1: of that bullpen where the Yankees could go crazy at
- 32:42Speaker 1: the end of it. And then Cardinals side you mentioned.
- 32:45Speaker 1: Will Warren hasn't been the best. I think he's still
- 32:48Speaker 1: priced too high for me for my liking on the
- 32:51Speaker 1: slate to use him. I think he could if he
- 32:53Speaker 1: wanted to. From a pitching aspect, I'd rather just drop
- 32:56Speaker 1: down with some of those other guys we talked about.
- 32:57Speaker 1: But man, the Cardinal's been miserable gets right handed pitching lately.
- 33:02Speaker 1: Jimmy Crooks, I think is a nice little value play.
- 33:03Speaker 1: Alc al Burlison now getting back another start, coming off
- 33:07Speaker 1: his three home runs on Monday against Cam Schlittler. Of
- 33:11Speaker 1: all things, Will Warren's not Cam Schlittler. He does allow
- 33:14Speaker 1: some power in uh to the left side. So Jimmy
- 33:18Speaker 1: Crooks I think is a value guy, like I said,
- 33:20Speaker 1: Burleson Weather, Hilt, Nathan Church, some of these value guys.
- 33:25Speaker 1: But more so if my interest is here, it's it's
- 33:28Speaker 1: definitely more on the Yankee side, and I actually prefer
- 33:30Speaker 1: kind of just power hunting. That Grisham Luis Garcia looks
- 33:32Speaker 1: pretty pretty interesting to me. Up at the top there
- 33:35Speaker 1: takes us to the best hitting environment on this Draftking
- 33:39Speaker 1: slate in Fenway here, White Sox Red Sox. Red Sox
- 33:43Speaker 1: did their thing last night, talked, talked about it pretty
- 33:47Speaker 1: much the whole show. Red Sox been the best team
- 33:49Speaker 1: in baseball red hot right now. Sean Burke is a
- 33:53Speaker 1: good arm. He's been pitching really good this season. Good
- 33:56Speaker 1: arm meets a great offense. I think this side this
- 34:01Speaker 1: game is pretty interesting, but I definitely have a lot
- 34:04Speaker 1: of interest in the White Sox in this one attacking
- 34:06Speaker 1: Sunny Gray. I'm not a Sunny Gray believer. I think
- 34:10Speaker 1: the White Sox are pretty damn interesting here full nine
- 34:13Speaker 1: and in at bats in this hitting environment with the
- 34:16Speaker 1: wind blown out here in Fenway, Murakami looks good. Vargas
- 34:19Speaker 1: has been great all season. Ben attendee Antonasi, I think
- 34:23Speaker 1: it's kind of interesting here you're talking about another ground
- 34:25Speaker 1: ball guy in Sonny Gray. But again, this team all
- 34:29Speaker 1: hits the ball in the air for the most part
- 34:31Speaker 1: on the White Sox side, and they've been one of
- 34:33Speaker 1: the better offenses in baseball against right hand pitching pretty
- 34:35Speaker 1: much all season long. So talk to me, how do
- 34:37Speaker 1: you see this one?
- 34:39Speaker 2: Yeah, as far as the Red Sox go against Sean Burke,
- 34:42Speaker 2: I mean that doesn't seem like a winning adventure. I mean,
- 34:46Speaker 2: his last eleven out of thirteen games, he's given up
- 34:48Speaker 2: two earned runs or less, So that's definitely concerning. I mean,
- 34:53Speaker 2: he just doesn't get hit around. So if the Red
- 34:56Speaker 2: Sox get to him, they do. I just, yeah, I
- 34:59Speaker 2: just I don't see it. You get to the other
- 35:02Speaker 2: side of this game, I think it's interesting. Murakami against
- 35:04Speaker 2: a righty, any righty is interesting. This dude's been absolutely
- 35:08Speaker 2: crushing right handed hitter. I mean, we got a four
- 35:11Speaker 2: to thirty well but three p fifty three ISO against
- 35:15Speaker 2: against righty's Gray. As you mentioned, is ground ball lean
- 35:18Speaker 2: forty six forty seven percent basically left side, right side
- 35:21Speaker 2: we're looking at basically fifty percent. But you know, I
- 35:26Speaker 2: like the fly ball percentages we see except Bradon Montgomery
- 35:30Speaker 2: and Chase Medroth are about the only two that I'm concerned.
- 35:33Speaker 2: Murakami's got almost a forty three percent fly ball rate
- 35:36Speaker 2: against against Righty's.
- 35:38Speaker 3: I mean that's that's that's impressive.
- 35:40Speaker 2: So I think he's definitely got You could look at
- 35:43Speaker 2: a one off Vargas as well, Colston Montgomery. They're pretty
- 35:46Speaker 2: close to thirty eight percent. So I do like it,
- 35:49Speaker 2: I don't love it, like is one of my top stacks.
- 35:52Speaker 2: I think you could power hunt Murakami, like I said,
- 35:55Speaker 2: I mean, dude, any righty Murakami has definitely got to
- 35:58Speaker 2: be in a conversation.
- 35:59Speaker 3: So yeah, I.
- 36:01Speaker 2: Mean interesting, White Sox have been, you know, one of
- 36:04Speaker 2: the darlings them and the Nats a few teams that
- 36:06Speaker 2: have kind of come out of nowhere. Uh So, yeah,
- 36:09Speaker 2: I just don't think that this is really the spot
- 36:11Speaker 2: for it. But yeah, I wouldn't full stack, maybe many,
- 36:15Speaker 2: maybe pull off some you know, one offs. I think
- 36:17Speaker 2: it would definitely be different and it does have some upside,
- 36:19Speaker 2: that's for sure. I do like the Yankees more than
- 36:21Speaker 2: the White Sox though.
- 36:23Speaker 1: Yeah, I definitely think the Yankees are a better overall stack,
- 36:25Speaker 1: but the ownership is also going to say that as well, right, so,
- 36:29Speaker 1: I do think of tournaments, the White Sox are pretty
- 36:31Speaker 1: damn sneaky, pretty damn interesting, and I would not be
- 36:33Speaker 1: shocked to see the White Sox do some damage against
- 36:36Speaker 1: the declining Sunny Gray and aging Sonny Gray. I didn't
- 36:39Speaker 1: want to talk about the Red Sox a little bit.
- 36:40Speaker 1: Sean Berg does look like a obviously he's been good.
- 36:43Speaker 1: He does look like a great or a pretty solid
- 36:46Speaker 1: pitching play tonight here he does get hit in the air,
- 36:50Speaker 1: right to your fly ball concern. Abray U has been
- 36:53Speaker 1: been pretty solid. He hits the ball in the air.
- 36:55Speaker 1: He's been really good against right handed pitching. I think
- 37:00Speaker 1: he is kind of interesting if you want to ride
- 37:02Speaker 1: the heater with with a guy like Nick Silgard and
- 37:05Speaker 1: Jared Duran, I think you could add those guys in there.
- 37:08Speaker 1: But I definitely more on the White Sox in this
- 37:10Speaker 1: one than the Red Sox here. And hopefully Sean Berke
- 37:13Speaker 1: can go out there and stop this immovable object here
- 37:17Speaker 1: of the Red Sox offense. And I know our guy
- 37:20Speaker 1: Wombat and Chat keeps continuing to say Red Sox best
- 37:23Speaker 1: team in baseball. The issue for me is it's it's August,
- 37:25Speaker 1: not October. Red Sox are peaking at a little bit early.
- 37:29Speaker 1: I don't I don't foresee them keeping this role in
- 37:31Speaker 1: the next two months here leading down the stretch, But
- 37:34Speaker 1: I guess we'll find out next part here. Marlins and
- 37:37Speaker 1: the Braves truest park here in terms of hitting environment
- 37:41Speaker 1: in this one gonna be fairly fairly warm in Atlanta
- 37:47Speaker 1: tempera in kind of the low eighties, upper upper seventies
- 37:50Speaker 1: Marlins in town here. Marlin's not the best bullpen Eerie
- 37:54Speaker 1: Prez Bryce Elder, I mean, Bryce Elder is pretty gettable.
- 37:58Speaker 1: We just kind of mentioned him from the pitching aspect
- 38:00Speaker 1: just because he's a value arm on a pretty weak
- 38:04Speaker 1: pitching slate facing facing the Marlins. Right, So, how do
- 38:08Speaker 1: you see this one? Any interest from offense on either
- 38:11Speaker 1: side of this one here?
- 38:13Speaker 2: I mean when you look at Bryce Elder here as
- 38:15Speaker 2: far as like some of the Marlins go. I mean,
- 38:18Speaker 2: Elder has been getting hit around here in the last
- 38:21Speaker 2: thirty days. He hasn't looked very good. He's been getting
- 38:24Speaker 2: bailed up by Rightyes, he's at a nineteen percent barrel
- 38:27Speaker 2: rate K percentage down to sixteen percent. He's been getting
- 38:31Speaker 2: bailed up by left He's at ten percent too, so
- 38:33Speaker 2: ground ball percentages are.
- 38:35Speaker 3: A little lower than normal to the left side.
- 38:38Speaker 2: I mean, Elder hasn't been the greatest so, but I
- 38:43Speaker 2: mean the Marlins are just hard to stack that That
- 38:46Speaker 2: Brayce Bullpen's just good too. So I think that's something
- 38:50Speaker 2: that I'm a little bit concerned about. I just have
- 38:52Speaker 2: the Marlins a little bit too far down. If I
- 38:55Speaker 2: was interested in anything, i'd probably look at some lefties.
- 38:58Speaker 2: Maybe Griffin Conine up at the up of that lineup
- 39:01Speaker 2: would be interesting with his four fourteen Wolba against right
- 39:04Speaker 2: handed pitching. Maybe Stours up at the top of that lineup.
- 39:08Speaker 2: I think that's maybe something I could look at. Now
- 39:10Speaker 2: on the other side, Atlanta against Uri Perez. You know,
- 39:14Speaker 2: I think i'd like the like Akunya up at the
- 39:17Speaker 2: top of that lineup. I think he's interesting. Olsen isn't
- 39:20Speaker 2: a bad play either. But I think Acuna is a
- 39:24Speaker 2: guy that I'd look at. I think he'd be a
- 39:25Speaker 2: guy good one off. Maybe if you want to swap
- 39:27Speaker 2: out a high price outfielder and another stack, I think
- 39:31Speaker 2: maybe I could look at some Accunya.
- 39:33Speaker 3: We know he steals bags he's you know, he's Ronald Acunya.
- 39:36Speaker 3: He's he's He's.
- 39:37Speaker 2: My favorite Brave. Actually, I do like to watch the
- 39:40Speaker 2: Braves Kunya. I wish could stay healthy. I'd like to
- 39:42Speaker 2: see what this guy can do throughout his career. But yeah,
- 39:45Speaker 2: I think he's a guy that I could look at playing.
- 39:48Speaker 2: I don't really love the Brave stack here all that much,
- 39:51Speaker 2: but uh yeah, yeah, I mean I think i'd full
- 39:54Speaker 2: stack the Braves or maybe just kind of use Acunia
- 39:56Speaker 2: as a one off.
- 40:00Speaker 1: Yeah, I like that. The Marlins. Yeah, the issue here is,
- 40:05Speaker 1: I mean, the Braves have four lefties in that bullpen
- 40:07Speaker 1: and they're really good. So guys like stours Co nine
- 40:09Speaker 1: for sure pinch hit Casey. I will say Joe Mack
- 40:14Speaker 1: is pretty interesting as a catcher three K. This dude's
- 40:17Speaker 1: been mash and baseball, especially especially against right handed pitching.
- 40:21Speaker 1: So at a three K catcher position, I don't think
- 40:23Speaker 1: Joe Max the worst play. But yeah, I don't love
- 40:27Speaker 1: stacking either side of this game really. I mean, Baldwin
- 40:29Speaker 1: a Kunya, Olsen, Harris always a top five you can
- 40:32Speaker 1: always play anytime they're on the slate. Eurie Prez can
- 40:34Speaker 1: get wild at times. But he has a big strike
- 40:36Speaker 1: on arm and I don't love love that, so yeah,
- 40:41Speaker 1: more more kind of minis minis here, and I am worried.
- 40:44Speaker 1: I just don't like stack and gets a good Bullpens,
- 40:46Speaker 1: especially arrested one at that Braves Bullpen's pretty arrested. That
- 40:49Speaker 1: Glacy is probably unavailable. But there they're other lefties, So
- 40:52Speaker 1: you're talking a bunch of pitch hit risk for a
- 40:55Speaker 1: lot of these Marlins, which does does make it worry
- 40:57Speaker 1: some to me. Pirates Brewers next game, Harrison Paul skeins.
- 41:04Speaker 1: If I had to pick a side surprise surprise, it
- 41:06Speaker 1: would be the Brewers, but not just because it's just
- 41:08Speaker 1: I mean, Paul Skins, I think is gonna single entry
- 41:10Speaker 1: stuff can approach sixty percent ownership just due to the
- 41:12Speaker 1: way the slate shakes up in the name recognition alone.
- 41:16Speaker 1: His strikeout's been there, but he hasn't been great. I
- 41:18Speaker 1: just don't love their price points here on the Brewers bats.
- 41:21Speaker 1: I'd rather play the Yankees at similar price points overall.
- 41:25Speaker 1: But Garrett Mitchell, Jake Bauers would be kind of my
- 41:29Speaker 1: Bowers would be my favorite guy. Just forty seven hundred
- 41:32Speaker 1: dual position alge Bill power, power kind of all over.
- 41:36Speaker 1: But this is another game from offense that I don't
- 41:39Speaker 1: love kind of the nature of the slate here. It
- 41:41Speaker 1: just seems like a kind of wide open slate. So
- 41:43Speaker 1: if you have conviction on the spot, I suggest just
- 41:47Speaker 1: going in on it because it seems like a lot
- 41:49Speaker 1: of blah across the slate from both the pitching and
- 41:52Speaker 1: the hitting aspect. But how do you see this game
- 41:54Speaker 1: here in Milwaukee?
- 41:56Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's got the lowest total on of
- 41:58Speaker 2: slate sitting at seven only. Don't like playing teams in
- 42:03Speaker 2: situations like that, but you know, we did mention Skiens
- 42:06Speaker 2: have been getting beat up a.
- 42:07Speaker 3: Little bit, you know here in recent times.
- 42:09Speaker 2: If you wanted to take a shot at somebody, you know,
- 42:12Speaker 2: maybe terrain up there at the top of the lineup.
- 42:15Speaker 2: I mean, Skin's been getting built up at almost eleven
- 42:18Speaker 2: and a half percent by lefties recently, so.
- 42:20Speaker 3: I wouldn't get overly excited about it.
- 42:22Speaker 2: Maybe a one off here too, if you wanted to
- 42:25Speaker 2: get a little bit of leverage off Skiens, who will
- 42:28Speaker 2: probably be the will be the highestone pitcher as far
- 42:31Speaker 2: as Harrison goes. Like we said, just came back off
- 42:32Speaker 2: the il We're not sure we're really going to get
- 42:34Speaker 2: for him as far as on the hill. But I
- 42:37Speaker 2: just don't think this is a spot either for me
- 42:39Speaker 2: to really want to go after this Pittsburgh lineup. That
- 42:43Speaker 2: I mean is it looks more minor leagueash than not.
- 42:46Speaker 2: So I'd prefer Harrison in this spot here. But yeah,
- 42:49Speaker 2: I don't have any love for really any Pirates And
- 42:52Speaker 2: like I said, maybe I could throw in a one
- 42:54Speaker 2: off maybe against a high own pitcher, but I'm not
- 42:57Speaker 2: going to get excited about either one of these offense
- 43:00Speaker 2: that much here.
- 43:01Speaker 1: Yeah, I will say Valdas finally got back on his
- 43:03Speaker 1: horse last night hit a mom Yeah, I think he
- 43:06Speaker 1: was after he went absolutely unconscious for a couple of
- 43:10Speaker 1: weeks there he cooled off. I think sixty some played appearances.
- 43:14Speaker 1: He was got awful, but got back on the horse
- 43:16Speaker 1: last night. Historically hits left. He's really hard. So at
- 43:19Speaker 1: forty three hundred is a one off on the Pirates side,
- 43:22Speaker 1: don't think that's the worst play if you're not playing
- 43:24Speaker 1: Kyle Harrison, who's going to be one of the most
- 43:26Speaker 1: popular pitchers on the slate, don't think that's the craziest.
- 43:29Speaker 1: And then yeah, terreng Bowers just kind of power hunting
- 43:33Speaker 1: Cooper Pratt. If you need thirty five hundred at a
- 43:35Speaker 1: short stop, he's been he's been hitting the ball pretty well.
- 43:38Speaker 1: But yeah, don't love either side of that game From
- 43:41Speaker 1: offense takes us to the next one here, which I
- 43:44Speaker 1: do think this is one of the better offensive spots.
- 43:46Speaker 1: The Royal is going to be one of the more
- 43:47Speaker 1: popular teams on the slate, if not the most. Just
- 43:49Speaker 1: to the salaries here they did get probably went back
- 43:52Speaker 1: in this lineup. Dean Kramer has not been good. The
- 43:56Speaker 1: Twins I think are kind of interesting as well, but
- 43:58Speaker 1: I did think No Amn's pretty interesting just as a
- 44:01Speaker 1: value arm on the slate. How do you see this one?
- 44:05Speaker 1: This is one of the better offensive spots just due
- 44:07Speaker 1: to the nature of the slate that we're dealing with.
- 44:09Speaker 1: Any interest in this one, you.
- 44:12Speaker 3: Know, I mean I generally don't you know, I've said
- 44:15Speaker 3: it over and over.
- 44:16Speaker 2: Generally don't like to play the Royals, But I mean
- 44:20Speaker 2: on a shorter slate like this, I don't mind picking
- 44:22Speaker 2: on Dean Kramer. I mean he's got a high fly
- 44:25Speaker 2: ball rate, that's for sure. I mean, I don't mind
- 44:27Speaker 2: it at all. You know, I think you could definitely
- 44:30Speaker 2: go there. I prefer the lefties against them, so, you know,
- 44:33Speaker 2: Carter Jensen, Kaglioni, Massy, I mean, maybe i'd look there.
- 44:37Speaker 3: As you mentioned, they should be fairly cheap.
- 44:40Speaker 2: It's just like I always feel like the Royals just
- 44:42Speaker 2: don't have enough power to get you know, get me
- 44:45Speaker 2: over the hump for the most part.
- 44:47Speaker 3: So I think maybe more I'd like more of mini stacks.
- 44:51Speaker 3: I get it.
- 44:51Speaker 2: I always do like the when when the industry is
- 44:54Speaker 2: leaning toward the Royals, because I just feel like generally
- 44:57Speaker 2: it's a full pass for me.
- 44:59Speaker 3: But I mean, what we're looking it here on the slate.
- 45:01Speaker 2: You know Yankees, you know, we we talked about, I
- 45:05Speaker 2: mean the twins. We you know, we we talked a
- 45:08Speaker 2: little while we're Yeah, we talked about so, you know,
- 45:12Speaker 2: I don't know, I just I don't overly love the Royals.
- 45:15Speaker 1: Here. The Twins.
- 45:16Speaker 2: We're gonna get to with Noah Cameron. Uh, Noah Cameron.
- 45:19Speaker 2: I mean he's been been pretty wild here recent times,
- 45:22Speaker 2: especially to the left side. He's got a pretty high
- 45:25Speaker 2: walk rate. So I think that's they're gonna have Ryan
- 45:28Speaker 2: Jeffers sitting up there in that two hole. He's somebody
- 45:32Speaker 2: that definitely stands out here tonight, UH for them. I mean,
- 45:36Speaker 2: he's got a thirty three percent fly ball right to
- 45:38Speaker 2: the left side. Uh, to the right side, he's got
- 45:41Speaker 2: almost a twenty eight percent. He's getting buriled up almost
- 45:43Speaker 2: eleven percent to both sides of the plate. So and
- 45:46Speaker 2: and then we mentioned that bullpen behind behind the uh
- 45:51Speaker 2: behind the Royals is just terrible behind Cameron. So Twins
- 45:55Speaker 2: definitely in play. I think the Twins Yankees are up there.
- 45:59Speaker 2: The White Sox would be up there for me here today.
- 46:02Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean there isn't any offense. I think
- 46:04Speaker 2: that like like we've had like where you had the
- 46:07Speaker 2: corse Field games and you got the Sacramento games and
- 46:10Speaker 2: all that. So I think that's maybe why some teams
- 46:13Speaker 2: are gonna go to the Yankees here tonight.
- 46:15Speaker 3: So maybe they're gonna be.
- 46:16Speaker 2: A little bit more over the owned because they're the
- 46:18Speaker 2: teams most people seem to be comfortable with and playing.
- 46:21Speaker 2: So I think taking a shot on, you know, some
- 46:24Speaker 2: of these other squads is definitely interesting, and I wouldn't
- 46:27Speaker 2: mind this one. We got a game total sitting at
- 46:29Speaker 2: eight and a half, which is tied for the lead.
- 46:33Speaker 2: I mean we've got three games at eight and a half,
- 46:35Speaker 2: four games at sitting at eight and a half, and
- 46:36Speaker 2: then you got the one at seven and a half
- 46:40Speaker 2: and seven and one at eight. So yeah, I mean
- 46:42Speaker 2: there is anybody that really stands out. I think both
- 46:45Speaker 2: of these offenses are in play. I think, you know,
- 46:48Speaker 2: probably depending on who you talk to, you know, I
- 46:50Speaker 2: think some people like Kansas City more. Some people might
- 46:53Speaker 2: like the Twins more. I like the Twins more than
- 46:55Speaker 2: I like the Royals, So you could leave it at that.
- 47:00Speaker 1: Yeah, I also like the Twins more just because Kansas
- 47:03Speaker 1: City's bullpen has got awful. And I mean this could
- 47:07Speaker 1: be a slate where the bullpens is what win it.
- 47:09Speaker 1: That's usually how it works in DFS, right, I mean,
- 47:13Speaker 1: you see it doesn't matter, right the first five innings, right,
- 47:16Speaker 1: it could go two to one, and then you see
- 47:19Speaker 1: some crooked numbers in the later later innings. Right that
- 47:23Speaker 1: three four innings at the back half of those bullpens
- 47:25Speaker 1: come in and neither of these bullpens is very good here,
- 47:28Speaker 1: and it is ninety ninety two degrees ninety one degrees
- 47:32Speaker 1: with win kind of blowing out to start the game
- 47:34Speaker 1: at least towards towards left field. So I do think
- 47:38Speaker 1: on both sides here, I definitely lean the twin side
- 47:41Speaker 1: when you add in the at least projected right now
- 47:44Speaker 1: ownership discount and the full nine and at bats and
- 47:47Speaker 1: the worst bullpen on the Royal side. So yeah, there
- 47:51Speaker 1: is some pinch hit risks with some of the guys
- 47:53Speaker 1: in here. Austin Martin, if he cracks the lineup, he's
- 47:56Speaker 1: a big pinch hit risk. Probably comes out as soon
- 47:59Speaker 1: as Noah Cameron comes up. Maybe a little bit of
- 48:02Speaker 1: Ryan Kreedler as well, but I mean Royce Lewis looks
- 48:07Speaker 1: pretty solid, Ryan Jefferson looks good, Josh Bell, even Carrotteini
- 48:10Speaker 1: switch hit and catcher there, don't think he's the worst play.
- 48:14Speaker 1: So yeah, I do think this is one of the
- 48:16Speaker 1: best offensive spots of the night and definitely the best
- 48:19Speaker 1: hitting environment, kind of right up there with with Fenway
- 48:23Speaker 1: slight edge to this spot as well. Next pot on
- 48:26Speaker 1: the slate Tigers and the Mariners. Brian wu Ty Madden
- 48:31Speaker 1: not not. I mean, i'll let you talk about him.
- 48:35Speaker 1: Not not great in my opinion, but he's not gonna
- 48:37Speaker 1: it's gonna be kind of more of a bullpen game here.
- 48:39Speaker 1: I think from the Tigers, Brian wu has not been
- 48:43Speaker 1: good lately, but I mean this ballpark. I think if
- 48:48Speaker 1: on a slate like this year, Yisen more offensive, isn't
- 48:50Speaker 1: isn't kind of cut and dry. I mean, I want
- 48:53Speaker 1: to ride the hot hand of guys like McGonagall. Max Clark,
- 48:58Speaker 1: like you said, has some upside even though he he
- 49:00Speaker 1: does strike out a bunch. Riley, Green, col Keys, Moore
- 49:03Speaker 1: of a platoon guy, pinch hit risk there for him.
- 49:05Speaker 1: Glaber's been actually really good, Dingler. I mean, any interesting
- 49:09Speaker 1: in your Tigers on a slate like this. I mean,
- 49:11Speaker 1: usually I hate playing this ballpark, but on a slate
- 49:14Speaker 1: where doesn't really nothing really stands out, I mean maybe,
- 49:18Speaker 1: I mean you could look at six seven, eight runs
- 49:21Speaker 1: something like that as the winning high scoring team, and
- 49:24Speaker 1: I think the Tigers could do that here. But talk
- 49:27Speaker 1: to me here, how do you see it?
- 49:30Speaker 2: Well, yeah, we definitely don't like the park. For one,
- 49:33Speaker 2: I mean we talk about that quite a bit. I mean,
- 49:36Speaker 2: the one thing I think the Tigers have going for him.
- 49:38Speaker 2: In the last two weeks, the Tigers have the highest
- 49:41Speaker 2: Basically they've been the best hitting team in baseball. I
- 49:44Speaker 2: mean their ops is eight eighty one, slugging percentage five
- 49:47Speaker 2: oh nine. You know, they've been pretty good eighteen homers
- 49:51Speaker 2: in the last couple of weeks here, So the Tigers,
- 49:55Speaker 2: you know, on top of the board. So I mean
- 49:57Speaker 2: with that alone, I like to play teams that have
- 49:59Speaker 2: been playing for well, you look at WU. He's got
- 50:02Speaker 2: five two games here in his last you know, two
- 50:05Speaker 2: starts where he's giving up five earned runs. So he
- 50:07Speaker 2: hasn't been great that that's for sure. So I could
- 50:11Speaker 2: see it. I don't overally love it. Like I said,
- 50:13Speaker 2: I'm playing on FanDuel. There's a bunch of offenses that
- 50:15Speaker 2: are not on the slate that are on DK, So
- 50:18Speaker 2: I got the Tigers way off my radar over there
- 50:20Speaker 2: on FanDuel.
- 50:21Speaker 3: But I can see the reasoning why here. I think
- 50:24Speaker 3: maybe more for some mini stacks. If you're if you're looking.
- 50:27Speaker 2: At at that, I think that's pretty much the way
- 50:31Speaker 2: you know that i'd want to go. Maybe he kind
- 50:34Speaker 2: of look for some lefties here against WU. Strikeout percentage
- 50:37Speaker 2: a little lowest flyball percentage. He is about ten percent
- 50:40Speaker 2: higher to the left side than to the right side.
- 50:43Speaker 2: So yeah, the mcgonagall's Riley Greens, Max Clark's. I think
- 50:47Speaker 2: those would be the guys I'd look for. But yeah,
- 50:50Speaker 2: I don't love it as far as the other side
- 50:52Speaker 2: with Madden, I mean, that's pretty much just gonna end
- 50:55Speaker 2: up being he's just gonna end up going through the
- 50:57Speaker 2: lineup maybe once. I don't expect him to go too long.
- 51:01Speaker 2: So I think you're gonna see Drew Anderson end up
- 51:05Speaker 2: is gonna come in. I mean, this is the Tigers
- 51:07Speaker 2: missing school ball in myes. They took two of the
- 51:09Speaker 2: five guys out of their lineup, out of their starting
- 51:11Speaker 2: pitching rotation, So this is the game here. It's gonna
- 51:14Speaker 2: bite them a little bit in the ass. I don't
- 51:16Speaker 2: really like any of the uh, I don't really care
- 51:19Speaker 2: for any of the Mariners here, but I.
- 51:21Speaker 3: Mean, we got a game total seven and a half.
- 51:23Speaker 2: I think it would be for me, it would be
- 51:26Speaker 2: kind of pressing, especially, like I said, me playing more
- 51:28Speaker 2: on fan duel. But yeah, I mean, like I said,
- 51:31Speaker 2: I love to play a hot hitting team. You're gonna
- 51:33Speaker 2: you're getting the hottest hitting team in baseball that have
- 51:36Speaker 2: put up I mean multiple seven eight run games here
- 51:39Speaker 2: in recent times.
- 51:41Speaker 3: And I mean they were saying something about their.
- 51:46Speaker 2: Like plus over under on runs and the Tigers are
- 51:49Speaker 2: like plus seventy. They like have been just on fire,
- 51:52Speaker 2: absolutely scoring a bunch of runs here in the last
- 51:54Speaker 2: few weeks. So that would be a reason why I
- 51:57Speaker 2: think I'd consider him and leave him in, especially because
- 51:59Speaker 2: we have seen WO at its top form here in
- 52:01Speaker 2: recent times.
- 52:03Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you look at the last month against
- 52:04Speaker 1: right hand pitching for the Detroit Tigers, two sixty eight
- 52:07Speaker 1: I S team strike out right under twenty percent WOBO
- 52:10Speaker 1: over four hundred and that's four hundred and seven played appearances.
- 52:13Speaker 1: So I mean, I think it's pretty I think it's
- 52:18Speaker 1: pretty interesting a low owned Tigers on a slate where
- 52:21Speaker 1: there's not really You're not fading a Coors Field, You're
- 52:23Speaker 1: not fading a Sutter Health Park, You're not fading a
- 52:26Speaker 1: Yankee Stadium or a Wrigally win game. I mean, great
- 52:30Speaker 1: hitting environment in the Yankee Stadium, Like, you're not really
- 52:33Speaker 1: fading massive team tolls. I mean there's a bunch of
- 52:35Speaker 1: team tolls all grouped around each other. So in regard
- 52:39Speaker 1: like that, I mean, I don't I don't think it's
- 52:40Speaker 1: the worst play in the world. And you got full
- 52:42Speaker 1: nine innings to do it, and yeah, you're right in
- 52:45Speaker 1: the hot hand. So Max Clark, Dingler, Torres Green, Colt,
- 52:49Speaker 1: Keith Torkosen, all of these guys that have been really
- 52:51Speaker 1: good McGonagall have all been really good against right handed pitching.
- 52:55Speaker 1: So this istype a slate too.
- 52:58Speaker 2: I was gonna say, I bring up some real quick
- 53:00Speaker 2: and I cut you off. But I was just sitting
- 53:02Speaker 2: here looking at the last two weeks. Dude, the Royals
- 53:05Speaker 2: are gonna get ownership. They've scored forty two runs in
- 53:07Speaker 2: the last fifteen days. The Tigers have scored eighty five
- 53:10Speaker 2: literally double Like yeah, you know what I mean, Like
- 53:15Speaker 2: I mean that right there, I think says quite a bit.
- 53:17Speaker 2: So I do like the fact more I think about
- 53:19Speaker 2: about the Tigers being a little sneaky, just because man,
- 53:22Speaker 2: they've been hitting the baseball getting and then they got
- 53:24Speaker 2: you know, the young kid comes up like I I
- 53:26Speaker 2: you know, like they got rid.
- 53:27Speaker 3: Of school ball. Maybe he's just an asshole.
- 53:29Speaker 2: Anyway, they didn't like you know, you don't know, man,
- 53:32Speaker 2: but they've been hitting really well here in recent time.
- 53:34Speaker 2: So I think for that reasoning, I think I would
- 53:36Speaker 2: h I definitely keep him in my pool.
- 53:39Speaker 1: And who is going to be like, I mean, who's
- 53:41Speaker 1: gonna projector right now? Thirty five? So yeah, I mean
- 53:45Speaker 1: I think in tournaments, this is definitely a tournament slate
- 53:48Speaker 1: for me because it's kind of wide open and all
- 53:50Speaker 1: over the board. I don't really have a ton of
- 53:52Speaker 1: conviction on one spot, so I definitely have to have
- 53:55Speaker 1: some interest in some of these tigers. Here. Last game
- 53:58Speaker 1: on the slates it is the Padres and the Dbacks.
- 54:03Speaker 1: Padres look really good. This is your chalk of the
- 54:05Speaker 1: slate because Mitch brad is horrendous. Padres have actually been
- 54:10Speaker 1: pretty solid. They're they're starting to hit, They're they're starting
- 54:13Speaker 1: to come to form. Ty France, I mean, I don't
- 54:15Speaker 1: know what happened to this dude. He's turned into peak
- 54:20Speaker 1: Barry Bonds right now. I mean, this guy is insane.
- 54:24Speaker 1: Padres look really good on paper here, and maybe if
- 54:29Speaker 1: you're playing the Padres, maybe this is a spot where
- 54:31Speaker 1: you go to like a a Sean Burke, you go
- 54:33Speaker 1: to like a Casey Mize, and you put pair up
- 54:37Speaker 1: like a Casey Mice with the Padres here, and maybe
- 54:40Speaker 1: the d Backs just end up punting this game. Right.
- 54:42Speaker 1: You go with one of those lower owned pictures, you
- 54:44Speaker 1: don't go and you you don't play the Brian Wu,
- 54:47Speaker 1: you don't play the Paul Schemes, you don't play the
- 54:49Speaker 1: Kyle Harrison, the pictures that everyone's going to play and
- 54:52Speaker 1: play the Padres because their price points allow it. Maybe
- 54:56Speaker 1: you pair up Casey Maes with the Padres get a
- 54:58Speaker 1: little different that way. Padres look really good. They look
- 55:01Speaker 1: like the top stack on the board. Is it going
- 55:03Speaker 1: to come to fruition. I'm not sure we'll We'll have
- 55:06Speaker 1: to find out, but it does look pretty good. I
- 55:09Speaker 1: never liked playing a chalky Padres team. I just haven't
- 55:12Speaker 1: been a Padres guy all year anyways, But they do
- 55:15Speaker 1: look really good. Jackson Merriw France have been I mean,
- 55:19Speaker 1: Jackson Marrow has been probably the hottest hitter in baseball.
- 55:22Speaker 1: One of them. It's lefty left but go ahead, and
- 55:28Speaker 1: how do you like this one? Padres and d Backs? Yeah?
- 55:31Speaker 3: What the hell happened there?
- 55:32Speaker 2: My damn Internet, Like, I don't know what's going on
- 55:35Speaker 2: either way Padres d Backs, you know, I uh, I
- 55:41Speaker 2: don't know. I mean Mitch Brad hasn't been looking all
- 55:44Speaker 2: that good here, but I mean he's got more of
- 55:46Speaker 2: a fly ball lean uh and I don't mind like
- 55:50Speaker 2: some of the right he's Machado, I think would be
- 55:53Speaker 2: would be interesting for for the Padres. I think, you know,
- 55:56Speaker 2: you could maybe look at uh maybe ty France here
- 56:00Speaker 2: had teas at the top of that lineup. Uh So,
- 56:02Speaker 2: I do like some of the righty's up at the top.
- 56:05Speaker 2: I mean you look at Brats, I mean there's a
- 56:07Speaker 2: lot of red on there, man, I mean he's been
- 56:10Speaker 2: getting beat up all over the place. K percentages are low,
- 56:14Speaker 2: walk percentage is pretty high to the righties. Uh So,
- 56:18Speaker 2: I don't expect much of him here tonight. So yeah,
- 56:22Speaker 2: I think the Padres are definitely interesting. I think there'd
- 56:25Speaker 2: be a team that on DK that you know, that
- 56:28Speaker 2: i'd maybe have an interest in. I'd kind of put
- 56:31Speaker 2: him maybe in the same bucket is maybe like the
- 56:34Speaker 2: Royals and Twins. I don't think they're too far off
- 56:36Speaker 2: from each other. So yeah, I'd have a little bit
- 56:39Speaker 2: interested in them rightings top of that lineup over there
- 56:42Speaker 2: for them. As far as the pot, the pot or
- 56:46Speaker 2: I'm having a brain fart there. The d Backs against
- 56:49Speaker 2: Casey Miz, I mean, mis have been fairly decent. The Lefties.
- 56:55Speaker 2: His strikeout percentage here in recent times been down to
- 56:58Speaker 2: fifteen percent.
- 57:03Speaker 3: What's that?
- 57:06Speaker 1: Yeah, you're good. Sorry, your your internet is your internet
- 57:09Speaker 1: is over the over the show here.
- 57:12Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know what the fuck's going on?
- 57:14Speaker 1: Are you there either way?
- 57:15Speaker 2: We're almost done anyway, so but yeah, give me a
- 57:20Speaker 2: little bit of Padres.
- 57:21Speaker 3: That's where I'm at. I can hear you players day.
- 57:31Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I don't know what's going on, but we
- 57:33Speaker 1: made it through. We limped to the finish line. Here.
- 57:36Speaker 1: Go ahead and h try and give your top three pictures,
- 57:39Speaker 1: your top three sacks and home run coffee. I one.
- 57:41Speaker 1: I'll do the same and close this out.
- 57:44Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean pictures for me. Like I said, I
- 57:46Speaker 2: got some schemes. I'd probably have some Harrison. I mean,
- 57:51Speaker 2: even though I did like some Tigers. I think Wu,
- 57:53Speaker 2: as you mentioned, gonna get some ownership. I think you
- 57:56Speaker 2: could look there a little cheap guys, maybe Cameron and
- 57:58Speaker 2: Kramer if you want to get there. But that's like
- 58:00Speaker 2: some whiskey type plays as far as stacks go here tonight,
- 58:04Speaker 2: I'm gonna say some Yankees are definitely interesting. I think
- 58:09Speaker 2: the White Sox, Royals, Twins Padres I think are interesting
- 58:14Speaker 2: on DK for me on fan duel. I think Philly's
- 58:18Speaker 2: Reds Nationals are my top three favorite teams that i'd
- 58:22Speaker 2: like today. As far as a home run call, I'm
- 58:25Speaker 2: going Murakami.
- 58:29Speaker 1: All right, I like that. My favorite pitchers. I'm gonna
- 58:32Speaker 1: go Kyle Harrison, I'm gonna go Sean Burke, and then
- 58:36Speaker 1: I will go I'll go Noah Cameron. My offense, I'm
- 58:40Speaker 1: going Yankees, I'm going Twins, and then White Sox. Those
- 58:46Speaker 1: are kind of the three I'm looking at there. My
- 58:48Speaker 1: home run call, I'm actually gonna go to the Braids.
- 58:51Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to Drake Baldwin spend up to be
- 58:53Speaker 1: contrarian catcher forty eight hundred hitting lead off here, I
- 58:56Speaker 1: think he gets one. If it's not against Yuri President,
- 58:59Speaker 1: I think he's uh, he's still a viable candidate the
- 59:02Speaker 1: whole game there. I do like me some Drake Baldwin.
- 59:06Speaker 1: That's gonna do it. Appreciate everyone tuning in and hit
- 59:08Speaker 1: that like butt hit. The subscribe button helps us out
- 59:09Speaker 1: a ton. Gem Rising's gonna hopefully ship a tournament so
- 59:12Speaker 1: he can get some better internet than I got at
