- 0:16Speaker 1: You gotta slip in your palm man, a hole in
- 0:20Speaker 1: your chicks, black coffee on the felt.
- 0:22Speaker 2: Man, you look like a mess.
- 0:25Speaker 1: Three teen Parlette turned the dust in your head.
- 0:29Speaker 2: Now you stare at the chips like they made you
- 0:32Speaker 2: this man. But don't you go quiet. Don't you fade
- 0:36Speaker 2: from the floor.
- 0:37Speaker 3: Your name steal mean something in somebody for show.
- 0:41Speaker 2: Put the glass.
- 0:42Speaker 3: Down, baby, look at me.
- 0:46Speaker 2: No, hold on, hold on nothing.
- 0:54Speaker 3: Nice now, hold on, hold on.
- 1:02Speaker 1: Me for.
- 1:06Speaker 2: That, but it'll get the crown.
- 1:14Speaker 3: Hold on, hold on and stay with me.
- 1:19Speaker 2: Now, what's up, everybody?
- 1:28Speaker 4: It's towed back with you with Toadstool Sports for Friday,
- 1:33Speaker 4: whatever day it is, August seventh, one and two on
- 1:37Speaker 4: the show yesterday it should have been two and one.
- 1:40Speaker 4: I don't know what else to say about that. The Pirate, well,
- 1:43Speaker 4: the Pirates could have done it as well. I mean,
- 1:46Speaker 4: they tied the game. They were down to nothing. They'd
- 1:49Speaker 4: given up two runs in the first inning. I think
- 1:52Speaker 4: on one hit it was. There was a two run
- 1:54Speaker 4: home run I think in the first inning. I want
- 1:57Speaker 4: to say, and then after that Ash settled down for
- 2:00Speaker 4: a while. Okay, so then the Pirates actually tied the game.
- 2:04Speaker 4: I think in the top of the fourth.
- 2:07Speaker 2: I want to say something like it was two two.
- 2:09Speaker 4: I think it was two two in the fifth inning,
- 2:11Speaker 4: and then they decided to blow it and allow three
- 2:14Speaker 4: runs I'm pretty sure in the fifth innings, so they
- 2:16Speaker 4: were on the verge of at least pushing.
- 2:18Speaker 2: That bet, and then that didn't happen. Toronto was one
- 2:21Speaker 2: of the worst beats that you'll ever see.
- 2:23Speaker 1: Uh.
- 2:24Speaker 2: Dylan Cee was excellent in the game.
- 2:26Speaker 4: He went I think he went seven innings in the game,
- 2:29Speaker 4: I want to say, maybe even longer than that, and
- 2:31Speaker 4: if we went first five we would have won because
- 2:33Speaker 4: they were winning one nothing at the time. But they
- 2:35Speaker 4: out hit the Cubs massively in the game, like they
- 2:38Speaker 4: had going into the ninth inning. I think Toronto was
- 2:41Speaker 4: winning the hit battle like ten to four in the
- 2:44Speaker 4: game or something like that, but Toronto only had two
- 2:46Speaker 4: runs to show for it.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Still, it was two.
- 2:49Speaker 4: Nothing with two outs in the bottom of the ninth
- 2:52Speaker 4: with Varland, Toronto's closer in the game.
- 2:55Speaker 2: There. I don't think he'd blown a save all year.
- 2:58Speaker 4: If I'm not mistaken, although this was him pitching two
- 3:01Speaker 4: days in a row, but he's done that before anyway.
- 3:04Speaker 2: Two outs, two outs. You're up to NP thing.
- 3:07Speaker 4: All you have to do is get one of the
- 3:09Speaker 4: next two guys out and don't allow home run.
- 3:12Speaker 2: That's literally all you need to do.
- 3:13Speaker 4: You can allow a single there, it could be two
- 3:16Speaker 4: to one, and then you can still get the next
- 3:17Speaker 4: guy out.
- 3:18Speaker 2: What does he do? No, he allows a two run
- 3:20Speaker 2: home run to Bregman.
- 3:22Speaker 4: Then Toronto doesn't score in the top of the tenth
- 3:25Speaker 4: of the ghost Runner. And once that happens, you know
- 3:27Speaker 4: they're gonna lose, because you know the Cobs are gonna
- 3:29Speaker 4: score their ghost Runner.
- 3:31Speaker 2: And that was it, absolutely brutal bad beat.
- 3:34Speaker 4: Toronto was clearly the right call in that game, and
- 3:38Speaker 4: I thought they had the advantage for the full game.
- 3:40Speaker 4: I didn't love the first five necessarily because I thought
- 3:44Speaker 4: both starting pitchers might actually do okay there, which actually
- 3:47Speaker 4: did happen. Peterson again wasn't really that bad in the game,
- 3:51Speaker 4: although he kind of got lucky in some ways. Obviously
- 3:55Speaker 4: he got outpitched by Cease. I thought Toronto was gonna
- 3:59Speaker 4: have the bullage based on the usage patterns or whatever,
- 4:02Speaker 4: and they should have one out away Man with a
- 4:05Speaker 4: two run lead, one out away like what do you want?
- 4:09Speaker 4: And then Las Vegas was able to kind of do
- 4:12Speaker 4: the opposite. If you saw that game in WNBA, we
- 4:14Speaker 4: got the win with Vegas. If you played the spread,
- 4:17Speaker 4: you kind of looked out, but you won the minus
- 4:20Speaker 4: one and a half.
- 4:20Speaker 2: They won by two in overtime.
- 4:23Speaker 4: If you saw that game, yeah, I wasn't paying attention
- 4:26Speaker 4: to it, but Vegas was losing by twenty in the
- 4:29Speaker 4: second quarter and then they scored twenty.
- 4:31Speaker 2: Two to one inser points.
- 4:33Speaker 4: It took the lead, and I think once they did that,
- 4:35Speaker 4: you kind of knew, Okay, they're gonna win this game.
- 4:38Speaker 4: And once they had done that, they had the lead
- 4:40Speaker 4: for most of the rest of the way, but they
- 4:42Speaker 4: couldn't really pull away. They had the lead for the
- 4:45Speaker 4: majority of the second half. It was a close game,
- 4:47Speaker 4: close game statistically, but Vegas wound up winning, and I
- 4:50Speaker 4: think it was really defense that did it. It was
- 4:52Speaker 4: a lower scoring game than what Indiana wants. Indiana wants
- 4:56Speaker 4: to run up and down and score a ton, and
- 4:58Speaker 4: that was looking like what they were gonna be able
- 4:59Speaker 4: to do early in the game if you look at
- 5:02Speaker 4: like the game floor, whatever. But Vegas was able to
- 5:04Speaker 4: put a stop to that and prevent Indiana. Of course,
- 5:08Speaker 4: When that twenty two to zero run happened, Indiana did
- 5:11Speaker 4: not score for a prolonged period of time. There, Vegas's
- 5:14Speaker 4: defense was kind of able to get the job done,
- 5:16Speaker 4: and that one is the better defense.
- 5:18Speaker 2: So there you go. All right, we're gonna have three
- 5:21Speaker 2: plays today. I feel like that's kind of my wheelhouse.
- 5:24Speaker 4: That's what I do. It's all baseball for me today.
- 5:26Speaker 4: I'm not gonna do anything with the WNBA today.
- 5:30Speaker 2: Baseball. It's all three sides.
- 5:32Speaker 4: We're gonna have to lay some juicy money lines this time,
- 5:35Speaker 4: so you better be ready for this. But we're gonna
- 5:37Speaker 4: be playing on three teams that I think have a
- 5:39Speaker 4: situational edge here, plus the starting pitching edge in all three.
- 5:44Speaker 4: So we better get these wins here, man, dirty sock,
- 5:47Speaker 4: what's up, Garrett?
- 5:49Speaker 2: What's up? Yeah?
- 5:50Speaker 4: And enjoy that the Braves until they get absolutely smoked
- 5:55Speaker 4: in today's game.
- 5:57Speaker 2: All right, op some WB here. We have all evening
- 6:02Speaker 2: games here because it's Friday, Mets Pittsburgh. I'm gonna give
- 6:06Speaker 2: out a play on this.
- 6:07Speaker 4: You probably know what it's gonna be already, and I
- 6:09Speaker 4: hope we can get this one. I'm gonna trust my
- 6:16Speaker 4: man Zach Thornton one more time. We're gonna take the
- 6:19Speaker 4: Mets on the money line here plus one twenty three.
- 6:21Speaker 2: We'll go full game on this.
- 6:23Speaker 4: The Mets have the better bullpen, so I'm gonna say
- 6:26Speaker 4: let's do that that way.
- 6:28Speaker 2: Here.
- 6:28Speaker 4: Thornton has one more chance to get back on my
- 6:31Speaker 4: good side here after he sucked ass in his last game.
- 6:34Speaker 4: But he's pitched well prior to that, and he's going
- 6:36Speaker 4: up against a Pittsburgh bullpen game. So I think we
- 6:39Speaker 4: have a bunch of advantages here. I think we have
- 6:41Speaker 4: the better starting pitcher, we have the better scenario the
- 6:44Speaker 4: situation because Pittsburgh's are turning home from a road trip,
- 6:48Speaker 4: and this road trip they were gone for more than
- 6:50Speaker 4: a week. And you know I talk about teams are
- 6:52Speaker 4: turning home from road trips.
- 6:53Speaker 2: It's bad. You have to get back to home life.
- 6:55Speaker 4: It could be a distraction, like do you really want
- 6:57Speaker 4: to come back home and play the Mets, one of
- 6:59Speaker 4: the lesser teams in baseball this year? After look at
- 7:03Speaker 4: the way that Pittsburgh their road trip played out, man
- 7:06Speaker 4: terrible road trip. They lost three out of four in
- 7:08Speaker 4: Cincinnati and then they proceeded to lose three out of
- 7:11Speaker 4: it was an eight game road trip. Then they proceeded
- 7:13Speaker 4: to lose three out of four in Milwaukee that basically
- 7:17Speaker 4: ended their season. Like I think this might be like
- 7:19Speaker 4: a dream crusher scenario for Pittsburgh, Like they had had
- 7:23Speaker 4: Milwaukee's number this year and they went in and Milwaukee's
- 7:26Speaker 4: a good team. But they went in and they lost
- 7:29Speaker 4: all but one of those games. After winning the first
- 7:31Speaker 4: game that series, they lost the last three.
- 7:34Speaker 2: This is brutal man Pittsburgh. They're done. They can't win
- 7:37Speaker 2: with Paul Skins on them mound. They're not going anywhere.
- 7:40Speaker 4: I know they're back at home where their offense is better,
- 7:42Speaker 4: but this is not gonna work out for them.
- 7:45Speaker 2: In my opinion, I think this is a negative spot.
- 7:47Speaker 2: It's a bad spot. It's a distraction spot.
- 7:50Speaker 4: And the Mets, even though they sold it the trade deadline,
- 7:54Speaker 4: they're winning right now.
- 7:55Speaker 2: They just swept Cleveland.
- 7:56Speaker 4: They're coming in from Cleveland, so they actually have a
- 7:58Speaker 4: better travel spot. Here to Pittsburgh is a pretty quick trip.
- 8:02Speaker 4: And I know, I don't necessarily want to play in
- 8:04Speaker 4: a team that scored thirteen runs yesterday like the Mets did.
- 8:06Speaker 2: Their offense is not that good.
- 8:08Speaker 4: They're not gonna put up thirteen runs again this time
- 8:11Speaker 4: and Foster Griffin, Yeah, it looks like his debut for
- 8:15Speaker 4: Cleveland did not.
- 8:16Speaker 2: Go well at all.
- 8:19Speaker 4: I thought that game was gonna be way lower scoring
- 8:21Speaker 4: than that. I don't know what happened in that game,
- 8:23Speaker 4: but yeah, I still think the Mets they're The thing
- 8:27Speaker 4: is they're playing well right now, like they're not showing
- 8:30Speaker 4: signs that they're.
- 8:31Speaker 2: Not motivated, you know what I mean.
- 8:32Speaker 4: That's what you need to look for after the trade
- 8:34Speaker 4: deadline when you have a team that's had a bad season.
- 8:37Speaker 2: The thing about the Mets.
- 8:38Speaker 4: Is they knew that they were gonna be sellers of
- 8:41Speaker 4: the trade deadline for a long time, so I don't
- 8:43Speaker 4: think that came as to any surprise.
- 8:45Speaker 2: So they're just playing out the stretch. But it looks
- 8:47Speaker 2: like they're.
- 8:47Speaker 4: Trying to win games right now, and they're may be
- 8:50Speaker 4: kind of an undervalue team because of that. So I
- 8:52Speaker 4: like all that we're getting them as an underdog. Here
- 8:55Speaker 4: we get Zach Thornton on the mound. I think it's
- 8:57Speaker 4: still under the radar young pitcher, but he hasn't really
- 9:01Speaker 4: thrown that many innings yet, so I'm not really worried
- 9:03Speaker 4: about that. He's got a two point eight eight ERA
- 9:05Speaker 4: one point zero five whip.
- 9:07Speaker 2: He's been worse on the.
- 9:09Speaker 4: Road in away three point four to eight roady array,
- 9:11Speaker 4: but his opponent batting average is one ninety four, so
- 9:14Speaker 4: he's still been effective on the road. He's only made
- 9:16Speaker 4: two bad starts. When was his first start of the season,
- 9:19Speaker 4: which was on the road at Washington, and last time
- 9:22Speaker 4: out against Miami, where I believe we lost on an
- 9:25Speaker 4: under in that game. Maybe I'm wrong about that.
- 9:27Speaker 2: I don't remember.
- 9:29Speaker 4: He wasn't good in that start, but he's been good
- 9:31Speaker 4: in all of his other starts, so I'm not I'm
- 9:33Speaker 4: not about to write him off yet, and he's done
- 9:36Speaker 4: well against some good offenses in here, like Atlanta Milwaukee.
- 9:39Speaker 2: He's got a low hit rate.
- 9:40Speaker 4: He doesn't really walk many guys, but he also doesn't
- 9:43Speaker 4: strike guys out, so I know the advanced analytics guys
- 9:46Speaker 4: aren't gonna like that he doesn't get that many strikeouts,
- 9:48Speaker 4: but I'm willing to back him in a spot like
- 9:51Speaker 4: this against who I think is an inferior pitcher and Pittsburgh,
- 9:55Speaker 4: even though they were a good offense. Thornton has never
- 9:58Speaker 4: faced the before, so that should be an extra advance
- 10:00Speaker 4: to a young talented pitcher. Usually they have an extra
- 10:03Speaker 4: advantage when the hitters have to like figure them out
- 10:05Speaker 4: on the fly. So that's what we're gonna go with here.
- 10:08Speaker 4: I forgot to go through all the stuff here. By
- 10:10Speaker 4: the way, We're gonna go through all the rest of
- 10:11Speaker 4: this stuff real quick. Both teams did play yesterday. The
- 10:14Speaker 4: Mets used three relief pitchers, just normal usage from them.
- 10:17Speaker 4: Pittsburgh also normal with three. But the Mets have the
- 10:22Speaker 4: better bullpen, Like I said, that's why we're going full game.
- 10:24Speaker 2: They're number six in bullpen.
- 10:26Speaker 4: Pittsburgh's is a bullpen that you usually want to avoid,
- 10:31Speaker 4: like I did yesterday at their twenty third.
- 10:34Speaker 2: Although I think their bullpen wasn't really that.
- 10:35Speaker 4: Bad in the game yesterday, but whatever, And in fact,
- 10:39Speaker 4: I think they used their better Oh no, they did
- 10:41Speaker 4: in Milwaukee.
- 10:42Speaker 2: Was what am I saying? Milwaukee one that was gonna
- 10:44Speaker 2: say to Pittsburgh use their better relievers. I don't really
- 10:46Speaker 2: think so.
- 10:46Speaker 4: I think Milwaukee did, but whatever. Anyway, Carmen mode Zinsky
- 10:52Speaker 4: is getting the start for Pittsburgh here. Oh yeah, and
- 10:55Speaker 4: offensively at Pittsburgh's obviously better like I said, but I
- 10:58Speaker 4: like pitching to counter good hitting. You know Pittsburgh's number
- 11:01Speaker 4: four in hitting. We know the Mets are not very
- 11:03Speaker 4: good at twenty seventh, but whatever situation and pitching man,
- 11:08Speaker 4: we're gonna fame Loadzinsky here, who's getting a start, because
- 11:12Speaker 4: I actually don't know why he's getting the start here.
- 11:15Speaker 4: I think it's gonna be a bullpen ish game for
- 11:17Speaker 4: Pittsburgh because Motzinsky's made starts before, so he might actually Actually,
- 11:22Speaker 4: this is what I'll say. I think when you play
- 11:23Speaker 4: this game, he should pick Thornton must start, But don't
- 11:25Speaker 4: pick a starter for Pittsburgh because they might put some
- 11:28Speaker 4: opener in front of Loadzinsky and have him go like
- 11:31Speaker 4: three innings behind an opener. You don't know what they're
- 11:34Speaker 4: doing here, but it's gonna be some sort of bullpen
- 11:36Speaker 4: ish game.
- 11:37Speaker 2: Although Moodzinsky might actually.
- 11:39Speaker 4: Start because he has been starting some some games. Three
- 11:43Speaker 4: point one five ERA for him, but one point three
- 11:45Speaker 4: to one whip indicates his ERA should be higher than that.
- 11:48Speaker 2: He puts some guys on. Basically, he's been.
- 11:50Speaker 4: Decent at home three point two ERA better opponent batting
- 11:53Speaker 4: average at home. He's not pitching poorly recently. But again,
- 11:57Speaker 4: these are relief appearances, you know. I think sometimes they
- 12:01Speaker 4: use them in certain matchups and stuff like that as well,
- 12:05Speaker 4: and against the Mets. This was kind of the clincher
- 12:07Speaker 4: for me. He's not very good against the Mets. They
- 12:09Speaker 4: have twenty five at bats against him, two eighty average,
- 12:12Speaker 4: seven to seventy nine oh ps, seven of four strakehot
- 12:15Speaker 4: walk ratio. So if you're gonna get a few innings
- 12:18Speaker 4: out of him, I don't think they're gonna be completely
- 12:20Speaker 4: clean here. So yeah, let's take the Mets as the
- 12:23Speaker 4: underdog here. The money seems like it might not agree.
- 12:26Speaker 2: With me on this.
- 12:27Speaker 4: Fifty seven percent tickets, sixty percent of the cash on Pittsburgh,
- 12:30Speaker 4: and about minus one thirty.
- 12:32Speaker 2: But the line initially did drop.
- 12:34Speaker 4: Pittsburgh was minus one forty something and then it dropped
- 12:37Speaker 4: to minus one thirty. That might have been because they
- 12:39Speaker 4: announced Motzinsky as the starter. I don't really know, but whatever,
- 12:44Speaker 4: that's what we're doing. The money is also hitting the
- 12:46Speaker 4: under in this game at eight or eight.
- 12:48Speaker 2: And a half.
- 12:50Speaker 4: I don't have as good of a feel for that,
- 12:52Speaker 4: but yes, I like the Mets in that game, So
- 12:55Speaker 4: that's what we're gonna do there. Yeah, good luck with that,
- 13:00Speaker 4: the Yankees are gonna win that game by like several runs.
- 13:03Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure, John Daily, it's a it's a common meme.
- 13:08Speaker 4: I'm surprised. I'd be surprised if it hasn't already been done. Uh,
- 13:13Speaker 4: the exact meme that I posted. It's definitely on my card.
- 13:17Speaker 4: I'm giving you the Yankees as a play if you
- 13:19Speaker 4: if you actually want to win money, the Yankees are
- 13:22Speaker 4: an absolute play in this game today, mister Pinsey, what's up?
- 13:27Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 13:28Speaker 4: Okay, Uh, Freed facing Atlanta is one reason why I
- 13:31Speaker 4: liked that game.
- 13:34Speaker 2: From nine months ago. Yeah, because nine months ago. Probably
- 13:39Speaker 2: it's it's because I'm about to have this baby. Man,
- 13:42Speaker 2: that was before I got pregnant.
- 13:44Speaker 4: No, nine months ago, I mean what it was football season.
- 13:47Speaker 4: I was, I was hot, I was probably doing well
- 13:49Speaker 4: then nine months ago, right when was that?
- 13:51Speaker 2: That was? Yeah?
- 13:52Speaker 4: That was during football season. No wonder why all right,
- 13:56Speaker 4: Toronto and Philadelphia. My first instinct on this game was
- 14:00Speaker 4: to play this game under.
- 14:02Speaker 2: But I started.
- 14:02Speaker 4: I said it yesterday on the show. I said, this
- 14:04Speaker 4: looks like it's going to be an under game. And
- 14:07Speaker 4: I said the same thing about Atlanta and the Yankees.
- 14:09Speaker 4: So that was because it was supposed to be Chrissale
- 14:11Speaker 4: for Atlanta, and yet it is not going to be now.
- 14:15Speaker 4: So No, but this Soriano Wheeler game on the surface
- 14:20Speaker 4: to me, it looks like it's an under game to me,
- 14:22Speaker 4: and maybe it will be. I'm not putting it on
- 14:24Speaker 4: my card though. Philadelphia just beat Washington. Philadelphia is hot
- 14:29Speaker 4: right now, although I still don't think they're as good
- 14:31Speaker 4: as the record looks. I think Washington's kind of just
- 14:33Speaker 4: falling off here. It looks like Washington's offense is not
- 14:36Speaker 4: doing as well now. Philadelphia used four relief pitchers yesterday.
- 14:40Speaker 4: I don't like Philly's bullpen, but Anaheim's is worse. Anaheim
- 14:43Speaker 4: only used three. Anaheim is coming off a or what
- 14:48Speaker 4: am I saying? Anaheim Toronto? I'm thinking Sriado is still
- 14:50Speaker 4: in Anaheim. Toronto is coming off that bullshit makeup game
- 14:55Speaker 4: loss against.
- 14:56Speaker 2: The Cubs two outs in the fucking ninth inning, man
- 15:00Speaker 2: so with a two run lead.
- 15:01Speaker 4: Louis Varland should personally send me some money for that bullshit.
- 15:06Speaker 2: Toronto used four relief pitches as well.
- 15:08Speaker 4: Toronto is the better bullpen here though, but they've used
- 15:11Speaker 4: viraland two days in a row, so he's not going
- 15:12Speaker 4: to be available here. But I don't like Philly's bullpen.
- 15:15Speaker 4: They are where are they at their twentieth Toronto's the
- 15:19Speaker 4: better bullpen. They're fourteenth, so I would still consider Toronto's
- 15:23Speaker 4: to be the better bullpen despite the usage yesterday, though
- 15:26Speaker 4: it was kind of similar between the two teams yesterday.
- 15:30Speaker 4: Philly's offense they're getting a little bit better, but their
- 15:33Speaker 4: twentieth right now, which is still not very good, although
- 15:35Speaker 4: they're better at home, Toronto's is awful. They're dead last thirtieth.
- 15:40Speaker 4: Jose Soriano making his Toronto debut here. How excited is
- 15:44Speaker 4: he going to be?
- 15:45Speaker 2: Man to go from one bad team to another, I
- 15:47Speaker 2: don't really know. I don't really know.
- 15:49Speaker 4: Why the Blue Jays did that. I mean, Soriano's not
- 15:52Speaker 4: an old guy. Though they might have him under contract
- 15:55Speaker 4: for a while now. I'm not sure. Soriano's been alright.
- 15:58Speaker 4: A three point twenty ninety RA one point two five
- 16:01Speaker 4: whip is not really great, but he's been alright. But
- 16:04Speaker 4: the one thing that we know about Soriano is he's
- 16:06Speaker 4: good on the road. Two point eight to eight Roady Ira.
- 16:10Speaker 2: Last couple of seasons, he's been a considerably better pitcher
- 16:12Speaker 2: on the road this year.
- 16:15Speaker 4: He does have a better ERA by like a run
- 16:17Speaker 4: on the road, but his opponent batting average is almost
- 16:19Speaker 4: the same this year, so he's not really that different
- 16:22Speaker 4: home and away.
- 16:23Speaker 2: But he is a good road pitcher. He's been pretty
- 16:25Speaker 2: good recently.
- 16:26Speaker 4: Other than the walks kind of being a little bit
- 16:28Speaker 4: of an issue recently. Again, he might still get excited
- 16:32Speaker 4: for pitching for his new team here, He's got a
- 16:34Speaker 4: low hit rate, his walk rate is too high, though
- 16:37Speaker 4: his strikeout rate is also high, so the walks are
- 16:40Speaker 4: really the one major issue with him. And he's a
- 16:42Speaker 4: ground ball pitcher for what that's where he gets a
- 16:45Speaker 4: lot of grounders.
- 16:46Speaker 2: He'll be going up against who did I Who are
- 16:49Speaker 2: we talking about? Philly?
- 16:50Speaker 4: This is where I kind of don't want to come
- 16:52Speaker 4: in and play the under because Philly hits three thirty
- 16:54Speaker 4: three off him with an eight twenty four oh ps
- 16:57Speaker 4: and twenty seven at bats five to two strike out
- 17:00Speaker 4: walk ratio. Obviously he could come in and pitch well here,
- 17:03Speaker 4: you know, like I still kind of lean under in
- 17:05Speaker 4: this game, but this keeps me off of it as
- 17:08Speaker 4: far as the play because Soriano has not done well
- 17:11Speaker 4: against Philadelphia in the pass. Zach Wheeler is pitching for Philly.
- 17:14Speaker 4: But if you want to Backfilly in this game, you
- 17:16Speaker 4: have to pay a huge price for it. Probably too
- 17:19Speaker 4: big of a price, because you get the you're playing
- 17:21Speaker 4: the team with the better record that has something to
- 17:23Speaker 4: play for. With an ace pitcher on the mound, Wheeler
- 17:27Speaker 4: has a two point four to ninety ra point nine
- 17:29Speaker 4: to one whip.
- 17:30Speaker 2: Really good.
- 17:30Speaker 4: He's slightly worse at home, sort of two point seven
- 17:34Speaker 4: to four hom He doesn't really matter.
- 17:35Speaker 2: That's good. His last start was only a two winning outing.
- 17:39Speaker 4: That was a weird like range shortened game, so I'm
- 17:41Speaker 4: wondering if it started raining. They took him out of
- 17:44Speaker 4: the game because of the rain delay, and then they
- 17:46Speaker 4: tried to finish the game and the game ended only
- 17:48Speaker 4: going six innings. Against Baltimore, I don't know what happened
- 17:51Speaker 4: in that game, but he had two clean innings in
- 17:53Speaker 4: that one. He was bad in the start before that
- 17:56Speaker 4: against Miami, but he said he was sick, and I
- 17:58Speaker 4: guess there was.
- 17:59Speaker 2: An illness going around the locker room there.
- 18:02Speaker 4: He was infecting everybody with COVID. Zach Wheeler patient zero. No.
- 18:07Speaker 4: I have no idea. But I'm not worried about about
- 18:10Speaker 4: Wheeler here. He's a veteran pitcher. He looks like he's
- 18:12Speaker 4: still got his stuff, Like I think he's gonna be
- 18:15Speaker 4: good here. He's got a really low hit rate, really
- 18:18Speaker 4: low walk rate, too high strikeout rate. All good numbers here,
- 18:22Speaker 4: numbers against Toronto. They're a bad offense, but they also
- 18:26Speaker 4: have not done well against Wheeler and one hundred and
- 18:28Speaker 4: fourteen at batts twenty eight to two strikeout walk ratio
- 18:31Speaker 4: is ridiculous. Two twenty eight to average, five to seventy
- 18:34Speaker 4: five ops Philly. You can't really play Philly here, even
- 18:39Speaker 4: though they probably do have the advantage here, but that's
- 18:41Speaker 4: factored into the line.
- 18:43Speaker 2: The matchup advantage there minus two ten.
- 18:45Speaker 4: Here it dropped for minus two twenty six, eighty six
- 18:48Speaker 4: percent of the tickets and eighty eight percent of the
- 18:50Speaker 4: cash on them. I think probably still like a first
- 18:54Speaker 4: five under because I don't like the Philly bullpen. I
- 18:57Speaker 4: don't like Toronto, not in the greatest either, so i'd.
- 19:00Speaker 2: Avoid the bullpens.
- 19:01Speaker 4: But I still think a first five under maybe makes
- 19:05Speaker 4: some sense in this game. Obviously, you know my concerns
- 19:07Speaker 4: with it. Soriano not good matchup numbers here. I don't
- 19:10Speaker 4: have any concerns with Wheeler really totals at eight for
- 19:13Speaker 4: the full game, so it's probably about four I would
- 19:16Speaker 4: imagine in the first five, which is a reasonable number
- 19:20Speaker 4: for a game like this. I still think that would
- 19:21Speaker 4: be my best approach for this game. I mean, if
- 19:26Speaker 4: you wanted to lay like a run line with Philly,
- 19:29Speaker 4: I mean, I think Philly should win that game, but.
- 19:33Speaker 2: It's I wouldn't.
- 19:35Speaker 4: I would not want to do it. I mean, I
- 19:36Speaker 4: think the price is just way too high. So that's
- 19:39Speaker 4: those are my thoughts on that dirty sock.
- 19:41Speaker 2: Thank you for the Jewels. Garrett, Dude, you think I
- 19:45Speaker 2: want the Yankees to win? I hate the Yankees. I
- 19:47Speaker 2: hope they lose every fucking game.
- 19:49Speaker 4: Like I'll be happy if the Yankees lose. It's just
- 19:52Speaker 4: not gonna happen. It is not happening. SOB, what's up?
- 19:56Speaker 2: I have? I am in agreement.
- 19:59Speaker 4: One of those is on my well, one of those
- 20:01Speaker 4: sides is on my car, but I'm playing it in
- 20:05Speaker 4: a different way. I don't There's no way I'm gonna
- 20:10Speaker 4: give out Kansas City. I'll tell you that, there's no
- 20:12Speaker 4: possible way. I don't know if I really love Seattle either.
- 20:18Speaker 2: White boy, what's up? Man? You're not going four?
- 20:23Speaker 4: And oh, I'm guaranteeing you're not going four And Oh,
- 20:25Speaker 4: you'll get the play right that I'm giving out, though
- 20:29Speaker 4: maybe I'm giving it out in a different way though.
- 20:32Speaker 4: All right, Atlanta, Oh no, wait, we have to talk
- 20:34Speaker 4: about Washington. What am I talking about? Cincinnati and Washington
- 20:37Speaker 4: and Cincinnati has not decided on a starter here. Cincinnati's
- 20:40Speaker 4: in some real trouble here. Man Hunter Green is injured again,
- 20:44Speaker 4: So Cincinnati. I don't know if it was his turn
- 20:46Speaker 4: of the rotation or not, but Cincinnati, they are lacking
- 20:50Speaker 4: starting pitching big time.
- 20:52Speaker 2: Other than Chase Burns, they got nobody.
- 20:55Speaker 4: Washington is returning over from a road trip here, and
- 20:57Speaker 4: it looks like their season is over. They've been playing
- 21:00Speaker 4: horrific baseball recently. Their offense is falling off a cliff.
- 21:03Speaker 4: They just lost almost every game on the road trip.
- 21:06Speaker 4: They only won one game, which was an extra innings
- 21:08Speaker 4: win against Philly, where they've scored more runs than it
- 21:11Speaker 4: looks like they did. I think they only had three
- 21:13Speaker 4: runs in the first nine innings in that game. Now
- 21:16Speaker 4: they're returning home from that awful road trip. Seems kind
- 21:19Speaker 4: of similar to that Pittsburgh return spot, you know what
- 21:22Speaker 4: I mean, where it's like your returning home could be
- 21:24Speaker 4: a distracted spot. You're playing against a bad team and
- 21:28Speaker 4: you just don't really have that much left to play
- 21:30Speaker 4: for at this point. It seems like a bad spot
- 21:32Speaker 4: to me for Washington here.
- 21:34Speaker 2: Man.
- 21:34Speaker 4: However, they're going to have a starting pitching advantage here,
- 21:37Speaker 4: so I can't come in and play the Reds here
- 21:39Speaker 4: when you just have no idea what the pitching situation
- 21:43Speaker 4: is gonna be and what you're back. And what you
- 21:45Speaker 4: do know is that these bullpens are both bad. The
- 21:48Speaker 4: Reds use three relief pitchers yesterday Washington used two. But
- 21:51Speaker 4: these are still bad bullpens. I would avoid both of them.
- 21:55Speaker 4: Cincinnati's twenty fifth washington twenty sixth inn bullpen. Washington's number
- 21:59Speaker 4: two offense still, but you can see their offense has
- 22:02Speaker 4: been bad recently. Cincinnati is still worse at twentieth, tied
- 22:06Speaker 4: with the Phillies. But you might see poor offense on
- 22:10Speaker 4: both sides here today, actually believe it or not. Even
- 22:13Speaker 4: though Washington, you think over when you see a matchup
- 22:17Speaker 4: like this with two bad bullpens. I'm not so sure
- 22:20Speaker 4: in this one, but again we have no idea what
- 22:22Speaker 4: Cincinnati's pitching is gonna look like.
- 22:24Speaker 2: Here. K Cavali is getting the start for Washington. He's
- 22:27Speaker 2: not bad.
- 22:28Speaker 4: A three point five two ERA, one point two to
- 22:30Speaker 4: nine whip is still a little bit high, but he's
- 22:32Speaker 4: pitching pretty well recently, although he actually is worse at
- 22:35Speaker 4: home though three point eight to two home home ERA
- 22:38Speaker 4: here pretty good over the last month plus though, he's
- 22:42Speaker 4: allowed three or few earned runs in every start going
- 22:44Speaker 4: all the way back into mid June, so that's pretty good.
- 22:48Speaker 4: His hit rate is still around one per inning, which
- 22:50Speaker 4: is a little bit high. His walk rate is pretty low,
- 22:52Speaker 4: strike out rate is high, so he does strike guys
- 22:55Speaker 4: out and he induces a lot of grounders as well,
- 22:57Speaker 4: so he's got a pretty good pitching profile here. His
- 23:00Speaker 4: numbers against Cincinnati, they really don't have much experience against them,
- 23:06Speaker 4: only Blade and Freido have faced them before, and they're
- 23:09Speaker 4: two for four with a double, which is freeidole with
- 23:11Speaker 4: that hit there, two strikeouts, no walks.
- 23:14Speaker 2: There's not a lot to take away from that.
- 23:15Speaker 4: I mean, the numbers don't look good, but Cavali is
- 23:18Speaker 4: mostly unfamiliar to the Reds, so I think he does
- 23:20Speaker 4: have a starting pitching advantage here.
- 23:22Speaker 2: It's a bad spot for.
- 23:25Speaker 4: Washington, but they they're gonna have the starting pitching advantage here.
- 23:28Speaker 2: So this game I'm definitely leaving alone.
- 23:31Speaker 4: The money is backing Cincinnati and like just playing the
- 23:35Speaker 4: spot here basically without even knowing what Cincinnati is doing.
- 23:38Speaker 4: Fifty per ticket, sixty six percent of the cash on Cincinnati,
- 23:41Speaker 4: you're getting like a pick them price on this. That's yeah,
- 23:46Speaker 4: no thanks for me, But the money is indicated towards Cincinnati. Again,
- 23:51Speaker 4: I think Washington's going to have the edge and the
- 23:53Speaker 4: starting pitching at least, though, like a first five playing
- 23:56Speaker 4: might make sense on Washington here, I don't know. I
- 23:58Speaker 4: think if you're playing either side, I think you might
- 24:00Speaker 4: want to make it a first five play. But again,
- 24:04Speaker 4: are you really gonna have a starting pitching edge with
- 24:06Speaker 4: whatever Cincinnati is doing?
- 24:07Speaker 2: I don't really think so.
- 24:08Speaker 4: So Washington first five maybe makes the most sense to
- 24:11Speaker 4: me here, still not gonna do it because they're in
- 24:13Speaker 4: a terrible spot. Money's also hitting the under nine here.
- 24:19Speaker 4: I mean, if you wanted to play an under I mean,
- 24:21Speaker 4: like I said, Washington, their offense has not.
- 24:23Speaker 2: Been good recently.
- 24:24Speaker 4: Maybe I don't know, man, I mean it's risky, like
- 24:27Speaker 4: maybe you go first five under and maybe you get
- 24:29Speaker 4: there with that one. I wouldn't want to deal with
- 24:31Speaker 4: the Bullpens. You could do like a Cincinnati under their
- 24:35Speaker 4: team total if you want to, or like get really
- 24:37Speaker 4: granular with him. To do Cincinnati first five under their
- 24:40Speaker 4: team total, you'll need them to score probably two or
- 24:43Speaker 4: less though against Cavali, but that definitely could happen. Quick thoughts.
- 24:48Speaker 4: What's up, man? Yeah, I like to watch. That's correct.
- 24:53Speaker 4: Everybody knows that, all right. The next game is one
- 24:56Speaker 4: of my plays, Atlanta and the Yankees. I'm gonna be honest.
- 24:59Speaker 4: I think this is a cheap price, even though it
- 25:02Speaker 4: looks juicy, but.
- 25:03Speaker 2: I don't think that it is.
- 25:05Speaker 4: We're taking the Yankees on the money line at minus
- 25:07Speaker 4: one forty five here. I don't want to do it.
- 25:10Speaker 4: I fucking hate the Yankees. I hope they lose, but
- 25:13Speaker 4: this is what I'm doing. I think if you want
- 25:14Speaker 4: to make it a run line play, you could do
- 25:16Speaker 4: that as well and get the price down by making
- 25:18Speaker 4: it a minus one run line. But I'm just like, whatever,
- 25:21Speaker 4: if it's below minus one fifty. I tend to just
- 25:24Speaker 4: go with the money line on this, and you know
- 25:26Speaker 4: the professionals would be like, you can't lay the run
- 25:29Speaker 4: line with the home team because they won't battle the
- 25:31Speaker 4: night didning necessarily, and the Yankees offense hasn't been good recently.
- 25:35Speaker 4: Yeah that's true, but look at this pitching. You gotta
- 25:38Speaker 4: be kidding me with this pitching matchup. Also, the Yankees
- 25:41Speaker 4: have a rest advantage, so the Yankees have another advantage here.
- 25:44Speaker 4: They're also staying at home, and they just had a
- 25:46Speaker 4: bad series against a pretty bad Saint Louis team. The
- 25:50Speaker 4: Yankees are gonna get up for this game. I'm sorry,
- 25:53Speaker 4: but yeah, that's gonna happen. They had yesterday off that
- 25:56Speaker 4: they're not traveling yesterday might help them disrupt this losing
- 25:59Speaker 4: more momentum they have and Lanta looks way too hot
- 26:02Speaker 4: right now. They've won eight games in a row. They
- 26:05Speaker 4: just beat Washington in Miami. But give me a break.
- 26:07Speaker 4: Those teams they blow, give me a break. Neither of
- 26:10Speaker 4: those teams are gonna be in the playoffs. Yankees are
- 26:13Speaker 4: a step up from those teams. Even though the National
- 26:15Speaker 4: League is better, the National League has had the upper
- 26:17Speaker 4: hand in the inn League play whatever. And I know
- 26:20Speaker 4: the Braves are starting a road trip, which is typically
- 26:22Speaker 4: a good spot. But again, we're fading a We're taking
- 26:27Speaker 4: a pitching advantage and a rest advantage here.
- 26:29Speaker 2: Man. Okay, Atlanta does have a decent.
- 26:31Speaker 4: Bullpen, but they used five guys out of the bullpen yesterday,
- 26:34Speaker 4: and the Yankees have the better bullpen over the Braves
- 26:38Speaker 4: as well, So we get the better bullpen and we're
- 26:40Speaker 4: rested bullpen with the Yankees here.
- 26:43Speaker 2: In addition to.
- 26:43Speaker 4: The better starter and the overall rest edge here, Tyler
- 26:49Speaker 4: Molly is making his debut.
- 26:51Speaker 2: For the Braves. Yeah, good luck with that. This guy sucks.
- 26:54Speaker 2: I don't know why they picked him up at the
- 26:56Speaker 2: trade deadline. He's not good.
- 26:58Speaker 4: Five point one to three ar one point three to
- 27:00Speaker 4: nine whip. You might argue he'll get pumped up because
- 27:03Speaker 4: he just went from the Giants to the Braves. So yes,
- 27:06Speaker 4: that is something to consider that he might be excited
- 27:09Speaker 4: to be on a team that's a contending team, but
- 27:12Speaker 4: he's just not good enough. He's not good and he's
- 27:14Speaker 4: absolutely horrific on the road. Look at his roadyra this
- 27:18Speaker 4: year eight point oh four. Is that something you want
- 27:21Speaker 4: to back three twenty six opponent batting average. It's in
- 27:24Speaker 4: a decent sample size too. This guy gets murdered on
- 27:28Speaker 4: the road. He fucking sucks, and he just pitched horribly
- 27:31Speaker 4: on the road at San Diego, a terrible offense and
- 27:35Speaker 4: a pitcher friendly park. Now he's going to a hitter
- 27:37Speaker 4: friendly park in an offense that is capable of he erupting,
- 27:41Speaker 4: which is the Yankees.
- 27:42Speaker 2: Yeah, good luck.
- 27:44Speaker 4: He did have nine strikeouts in that game, so I'll
- 27:46Speaker 4: give him that. But other than that, yeah, this is
- 27:48Speaker 4: nothing that you want to back. He's he's allowing more
- 27:50Speaker 4: than one hit per inning. His walk rate is bad,
- 27:53Speaker 4: his strikeout rate is mediocre, and you know what's coming.
- 27:56Speaker 2: He's not good against the Yankees either.
- 27:58Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure well batting average against is OK to
- 28:02Speaker 4: forty four, but they have an eight to twenty three
- 28:04Speaker 4: zero ps off him.
- 28:05Speaker 2: They hit him for power. Gold Schmidt and McMahon both
- 28:08Speaker 2: destroy this guy.
- 28:09Speaker 4: So the guys that used to be in the National League,
- 28:11Speaker 4: basically both the guys that have the most at bats
- 28:14Speaker 4: against him in the Yankees lineup both have wrecked him.
- 28:17Speaker 4: They have eighty two at bats against him, twenty four
- 28:19Speaker 4: to eight strike out walk ratios.
- 28:20Speaker 2: Nothing specially either.
- 28:22Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna fade Molly here and we're gonna back
- 28:24Speaker 4: Max Freed. You want to talk about a motivational edge, Well, yeah,
- 28:28Speaker 4: Molly's gonna be excited, maybe to pitch for his new team.
- 28:31Speaker 4: Max Freed has not faced the Braves since being off
- 28:35Speaker 4: of the Braves, so this is gonna be his.
- 28:36Speaker 2: He didn't Actually, yeah, no, he hasn't. I checked.
- 28:39Speaker 4: I looked at his schedule last year. He has not
- 28:42Speaker 4: faced the Braves. Unless he faced them this year, I
- 28:44Speaker 4: don't think he did. No, So Max Freed, you can
- 28:48Speaker 4: check me if I'm wrong, correct me if I'm wrong.
- 28:50Speaker 4: But I believe this will be his first time facing
- 28:52Speaker 4: his former team, which is a big deal when it's
- 28:55Speaker 4: a big team like the Braves and he spent his
- 28:57Speaker 4: entire career with the Braves. Him go the Yankees, I
- 29:01Speaker 4: think he might have been was he a free agent?
- 29:03Speaker 4: I don't remember, but the Yankees picked him up. This
- 29:05Speaker 4: will be his first time facing his former team, which
- 29:07Speaker 4: I think is a motivational angle. I think he'll be
- 29:09Speaker 4: pumped for this. Freed has been good on the season.
- 29:12Speaker 4: He's obviously the way better pitcher here. Three point one
- 29:15Speaker 4: two ERA point nine to nine whip. He's not as
- 29:18Speaker 4: good at home. I admit a four point four to
- 29:20Speaker 4: three home ra but if you look at his peripherals
- 29:22Speaker 4: and whatever here, the numbers aren't even bad at home.
- 29:25Speaker 4: So I don't know how his ra is that high. Like,
- 29:28Speaker 4: the home run rate is really low. He's literally allowed
- 29:30Speaker 4: one home run on the season. It looks like here,
- 29:33Speaker 4: so he doesn't allow home runs. His walk rate is
- 29:36Speaker 4: I guess the problem y has. That's that is it.
- 29:39Speaker 4: I guess his walk rate has been higher at home,
- 29:41Speaker 4: but he has a very small home sample size so far. Yeah,
- 29:45Speaker 4: he's allowed one home run on the season. He's got
- 29:47Speaker 4: a low hit rate, his walk rate. If you want
- 29:50Speaker 4: to pick at him, the walk rate is like the
- 29:52Speaker 4: one problem that he has.
- 29:53Speaker 2: It's not great.
- 29:54Speaker 4: But the strikeout rate is like, Okay, he's not a
- 29:56Speaker 4: huge strikeout pitcher.
- 29:58Speaker 2: He has faced some of the Braves hitters before.
- 30:00Speaker 4: They have sixty five at bats against them, actually, and
- 30:03Speaker 4: they have a one sixty nine average against them.
- 30:05Speaker 2: Is that good? Yeah? No, no, it isn't. Uh, it's
- 30:10Speaker 2: good for him, it's not good for them.
- 30:13Speaker 4: Four sixty seven opponent ops against, thirteen to three strike
- 30:17Speaker 4: out walk ratio. So, yeah, we get a bunch of
- 30:20Speaker 4: edges here. We're playing the Yankees. Let me see what's
- 30:24Speaker 4: uh what does the market look like here? I think
- 30:27Speaker 4: I made a pretty strong case for it. Fifty six
- 30:29Speaker 4: percent of tickets, eighty one percent of the cash on
- 30:31Speaker 4: the Yankees.
- 30:31Speaker 2: So the market read is saying the Yankees.
- 30:34Speaker 4: I have no clue why the line dropped from minus
- 30:36Speaker 4: one fifty five to minus one thirty something here. You
- 30:38Speaker 4: might be able to find a better price than I'm
- 30:40Speaker 4: giving out right now, let me see, did the price
- 30:42Speaker 4: actually go down? There's no way, Like, dude, this is like,
- 30:48Speaker 4: I can't believe you're getting the Yankees at this cheap
- 30:50Speaker 4: of a price. To me, yeah, you can get them
- 30:51Speaker 4: at minus one thirty right now.
- 30:53Speaker 2: You got to be kidding me. And it looks like
- 30:55Speaker 2: the money according to this wager Truk screen, the money
- 30:58Speaker 2: is actually on the Yankees, even though it's dropping, Like
- 31:02Speaker 2: is there there's not a pitching change, is there? If
- 31:05Speaker 2: you're playing this game, pick the starters must start. Obviously,
- 31:08Speaker 2: Molly and Freed both must start for this one. Okay,
- 31:11Speaker 2: if I don't specify otherwise, that is what I'm telling
- 31:15Speaker 2: you to do. Is pick. Both starters must start.
- 31:17Speaker 4: But yeah, this line's down to minus one thirty. All right,
- 31:20Speaker 4: give me a better number on it. Yeah, okay, let's
- 31:23Speaker 4: do it. Yankees' money line is the play in that one.
- 31:26Speaker 4: I seen no reason to not do that. Clint did
- 31:32Speaker 4: not betraying me. Fuck you, you don't know anything about
- 31:34Speaker 4: what's going on, dude, Fuck you, Get the fuck out
- 31:37Speaker 4: of my chat. Stop talking about shit. You have no idea,
- 31:40Speaker 4: you have no clue what you're talking about. I like
- 31:43Speaker 4: all those guys still, I'm not taking sides one way
- 31:46Speaker 4: or the other. You don't know what the fuck even happened.
- 31:50Speaker 4: I think both of them were Clinton Top were both
- 31:52Speaker 4: wrong in various ways. Okay, so yeah, Like I have
- 31:57Speaker 4: nothing else to say about that. I like all those
- 31:59Speaker 4: guys still, I'm friends with all of them. Still, get
- 32:01Speaker 4: the fuck out of my chat. I'm not picking sides here.
- 32:05Speaker 4: No pregame pregame could suck my dick. Pregame is fucking
- 32:09Speaker 4: dead to me. They're never gonna fix their shit. It's
- 32:11Speaker 4: about to be football season.
- 32:13Speaker 2: They had the best free odd screen and that hasn't
- 32:16Speaker 2: been working since fucking April. Fuck pregame.
- 32:20Speaker 4: The guys that run like the guys that are in
- 32:21Speaker 4: charge of running that site, they seem to be like
- 32:23Speaker 4: just totally absent. They're doing fucking nothing except they're trying
- 32:27Speaker 4: to still sell their picks. Good luck with that, because
- 32:29Speaker 4: all the better handicappers are at this site wager talk.
- 32:33Speaker 4: So I'm not advertising for anybody. I'm just telling the
- 32:36Speaker 4: truth here, all right. Next game up is Anaheim and Miami. Miami,
- 32:42Speaker 4: they're dead and they're returning home from a road trip.
- 32:44Speaker 4: So we have a few teams that are like this,
- 32:46Speaker 4: like teams that are like, yeah, you're not making the
- 32:48Speaker 4: playoffs now, buddy, and you're returning home from a road
- 32:51Speaker 4: trip that basically sealed your fate. It's not a good
- 32:55Speaker 4: spot from Miami returning home from that. They just got
- 32:58Speaker 4: swept by Atlanta. That was a huge seat. They couldn't
- 33:00Speaker 4: get a game they lost or excuse me, they won
- 33:03Speaker 4: the series in New York before that against the Mets,
- 33:05Speaker 4: but whatever, it's the Mets. Do we really want to
- 33:08Speaker 4: back Anaheim here? Probably not. But Anaheim did play yesterday.
- 33:14Speaker 4: Both teams played yesterday. Anaheim did win yesterday against Baltimore,
- 33:17Speaker 4: So Anaheim is still putting in some effort. I think
- 33:19Speaker 4: Ryan Johnson actually must have pitched well in that game yesterday.
- 33:26Speaker 4: Anaheim used three relief pitchers yesterday. Miami does have the
- 33:29Speaker 4: better bullpen. They used four, though, but Miami is the
- 33:33Speaker 4: better bullpen. Miami is ranked fifth, although I don't think
- 33:35Speaker 4: they're quite that good, as I keep saying, Anaheim's not
- 33:38Speaker 4: good at twenty first, So yeah, Miami definitely is the
- 33:41Speaker 4: better bullpen.
- 33:42Speaker 2: Miami's been the better offense as well. They're eleventh.
- 33:45Speaker 4: We're looking at a pitcher friendly park here, but Anaheim
- 33:47Speaker 4: has definitely struggled offensively at twenty sixth, and they got
- 33:50Speaker 4: rid of some of their hitters at the trade deadline.
- 33:53Speaker 4: Anaheim is going with George Klassen, which is an interesting
- 33:58Speaker 4: He's an interesting case here.
- 34:00Speaker 2: He's really young, twenty four.
- 34:02Speaker 4: His numbers look awful so far, and this is his
- 34:04Speaker 4: rookie season. Eleven point five seventy RA, three point six
- 34:08Speaker 4: to four whip is horrific. And you know why that's
- 34:11Speaker 4: the case. It's because he walks everybody. He's only made
- 34:14Speaker 4: a couple of starts so far, two starts in his
- 34:17Speaker 4: career so far.
- 34:18Speaker 2: He's thrown way too many pitches.
- 34:20Speaker 4: He hasn't completed three innings, Yet he's allowed more runs
- 34:23Speaker 4: than innings, pitch more hits than that, and he's allowed
- 34:26Speaker 4: more than two walks per inning. Yet you can't do that.
- 34:30Speaker 4: But if you look at the scouting report on this guy,
- 34:32Speaker 4: this guy throws like one hundred miles an hour. So
- 34:34Speaker 4: this guy has like an elite like. He has like
- 34:38Speaker 4: elite fastball velocity. The problem is he's completely out of control.
- 34:42Speaker 4: He walks everybody in His pitch mix isn't really that deep.
- 34:46Speaker 4: So I think he might need to wind up being
- 34:48Speaker 4: a relief pitcher because he throws one hundred miles an
- 34:50Speaker 4: hour on his fastball. His second best pitch is a
- 34:53Speaker 4: slider that kind of moves like a cutter, so I
- 34:55Speaker 4: assume it's kind of a hard slider. And then he
- 34:58Speaker 4: has a curve ball, and then I guess he has
- 34:59Speaker 4: a chain that's not good at all. That's his arsenal.
- 35:03Speaker 4: So he seems like more of a relief pitcher than
- 35:05Speaker 4: a starter to me. I don't know what he's gonna
- 35:08Speaker 4: look like in this game. Obviously, he does have an
- 35:10Speaker 4: unfamiliarity edge here, and he's capable of getting guys out.
- 35:14Speaker 4: I would say at the major league level, if he
- 35:16Speaker 4: can somehow fix his command. Miami won't have seen him before,
- 35:20Speaker 4: but things have not gone well for class and so
- 35:22Speaker 4: far so Closs and Pickles what so, I don't think
- 35:26Speaker 4: he's backable here. Tyler Phillips is pitching from Miami.
- 35:29Speaker 2: Here. They basically converted him into a starter.
- 35:33Speaker 4: He's a converter reliever and he's been okay three point
- 35:37Speaker 4: five three ERA one point three to five whip is
- 35:39Speaker 4: not really that good, but he's been good at home
- 35:41Speaker 4: one point six y three home. He RRA and he's
- 35:43Speaker 4: continuing to not allow that many runs, so he's kind
- 35:46Speaker 4: of getting you like four or five innings when he
- 35:48Speaker 4: goes out there, and he's keeping you in the game
- 35:49Speaker 4: and not allowing that many runs, which is good, although
- 35:53Speaker 4: he's not He doesn't have like elite stuff or anything.
- 35:56Speaker 4: He can't strike guys out. His hit rate is decent.
- 35:58Speaker 4: His walk rate is not really that good though, so
- 36:01Speaker 4: he doesn't strike guys out. He walks too many guys,
- 36:03Speaker 4: but he isn't really that hittable, which is kind of
- 36:06Speaker 4: a weird combination. I guess gets guys into a lot
- 36:09Speaker 4: of soft contacts. So again, advanced analytics guys will be like, yeah, no,
- 36:14Speaker 4: we don't like this guy. Anaheim only has three hitters
- 36:17Speaker 4: who have faced him, and they're only one for six
- 36:19Speaker 4: Offen with no extra base hits, one strikeout, no walks,
- 36:23Speaker 4: So Phillips might actually do okay here.
- 36:28Speaker 2: My read on this game is not strong.
- 36:31Speaker 4: The money is coming in against Miami, and again it's
- 36:33Speaker 4: probably because of the price and the situation. They open
- 36:36Speaker 4: minus one seventy two, Like I don't think they should
- 36:38Speaker 4: be that heavy of a favorite with Phillips on the mound,
- 36:41Speaker 4: probably against anybody.
- 36:43Speaker 2: But the line did drop to like minus one sixty two.
- 36:45Speaker 4: We got eighty two percent of the tickets seventy nine
- 36:47Speaker 4: percent of the cash on Miami, So they're a public side.
- 36:50Speaker 4: With the money coming in against them, the public will
- 36:53Speaker 4: want nothing to do with Anaheim with a picture with
- 36:55Speaker 4: horrible numbers right now that they don't know who he is.
- 36:58Speaker 4: But he's class and at least has his fastball alone
- 37:02Speaker 4: at least tells you that he's probably at least better
- 37:05Speaker 4: than his numbers look. But in this game, I mean,
- 37:08Speaker 4: we're looking at some pitching that's not very good here.
- 37:12Speaker 4: There might be more indicators towards an over here, and
- 37:14Speaker 4: the money is coming in on the over sixty four
- 37:16Speaker 4: percent of tickets on the under eighty one percent of
- 37:18Speaker 4: the cash on the over eight and a half. Do
- 37:22Speaker 4: what you want with that info.
- 37:25Speaker 2: But whatever. By the way, I also, dude.
- 37:27Speaker 4: I like Clint and I'm gonna see Clint fairly soon.
- 37:31Speaker 4: By the way, I don't know if I'm allowed to
- 37:33Speaker 4: say that or not. It's a very yeah, it's a
- 37:35Speaker 4: very homo erotic situation. No, but I was, dude. I
- 37:39Speaker 4: wasn't even kissing anybody's ass. I made a joke about
- 37:42Speaker 4: liking to watch That's all I fucking said. And then
- 37:44Speaker 4: you're gonna come at me because I'm not gonna slander somebody.
- 37:47Speaker 4: Fuck you get it, get out of my chat. My
- 37:52Speaker 4: favorite handicapper is not myself, So Marco DiAngelo is my favorite.
- 37:58Speaker 4: I've mentioned him on the show where I've been following
- 38:00Speaker 4: him for two decades. Probably at this point. He's on
- 38:04Speaker 4: wager He was at pregame he's one of the founders
- 38:07Speaker 4: of wager Talk, because I think things were probably not
- 38:10Speaker 4: going well at pregames, so he was like, no, I'm
- 38:13Speaker 4: gonna start my own thing, do it my own way,
- 38:16Speaker 4: and like, bring over some guys that I like and trust.
- 38:18Speaker 2: Or whatever. Yeah, I like Marco.
- 38:21Speaker 4: I mean he handed he handicaps all the major sports,
- 38:24Speaker 4: and he also does horse racing and is a horse
- 38:29Speaker 4: owner I believe as well, like a racing horse owner,
- 38:32Speaker 4: and he's done that for a long time.
- 38:34Speaker 2: So yeah, he's he's my favorite. I liked he. I've
- 38:37Speaker 2: learned the most from him.
- 38:38Speaker 4: He's a situational handicapper, so I like the way that
- 38:41Speaker 4: he handicaps. And even before I was like an Austrian
- 38:44Speaker 4: economist and was getting into oh, human behavior makes sense
- 38:47Speaker 4: here and how it affects, like like how human behavior
- 38:51Speaker 4: like operates basically, and how that is really like the economy,
- 38:55Speaker 4: but he kind of does that in his handicapping.
- 38:59Speaker 2: I put two and two together.
- 39:01Speaker 4: After I started reading Austrian economics, I'm like, oh shit,
- 39:04Speaker 4: that's crazy, Like the way I handicap is actually like
- 39:07Speaker 4: an Austrian economic approach. But it was just what made
- 39:11Speaker 4: the most sense to me, like way back twenty years ago,
- 39:14Speaker 4: and I started listening to him and I'm like, oh, yeah,
- 39:16Speaker 4: this makes sense. I was trying to figure out, like
- 39:18Speaker 4: how do I pick football games? That's how I got
- 39:21Speaker 4: into it. I was playing poker for a bit when
- 39:23Speaker 4: I was in college and then the government made it
- 39:26Speaker 4: illegal to do that online, so I was in the
- 39:29Speaker 4: poker scene for a little while back then I did
- 39:31Speaker 4: some live tournaments as well.
- 39:33Speaker 2: But yeah, I switched over to sports partially because you
- 39:37Speaker 2: could still do it, although you had to do I don't.
- 39:41Speaker 4: Even know if I'm allowed to say it here, but
- 39:43Speaker 4: you had to find certain ways of doing that.
- 39:47Speaker 2: The sports betting whatever.
- 39:49Speaker 4: But I did it also because I wanted to be
- 39:51Speaker 4: better at predicting games to win, like my pick them
- 39:54Speaker 4: leagues and stuff. So I don't think he's retired, no,
- 39:58Speaker 4: I mean he's on wager Time channel doing videos like
- 40:02Speaker 4: multiple times a week and whatever, and no, he's he
- 40:04Speaker 4: sells his picks on there and whatever. He's definitely not retired.
- 40:07Speaker 4: I mean he he bets for a living, so I'm
- 40:09Speaker 4: sure he's still betting as well. But he's he gives
- 40:12Speaker 4: out his picks on that on that or doesn't give
- 40:15Speaker 4: them out, he sells them on that site. But he
- 40:18Speaker 4: also gives out free ones as well, and he still
- 40:22Speaker 4: does the the bet on It show, which I watch
- 40:25Speaker 4: every week from football season.
- 40:28Speaker 2: I like to compare my thinking with theirs, you know
- 40:32Speaker 2: what I mean.
- 40:32Speaker 4: So I like when I'm in line with them, all right,
- 40:36Speaker 4: a's in the Red Sox. If you guys saw the
- 40:39Speaker 4: Red Sox game last night, yeah, I don't want I
- 40:43Speaker 4: don't want anything to do with either Socks team after
- 40:46Speaker 4: that game last night.
- 40:47Speaker 2: It was completely ridiculous.
- 40:49Speaker 4: Wilson Contreres still didn't play, by the way, because he
- 40:52Speaker 4: was sick. He got pulled from the previous game due
- 40:54Speaker 4: to an illness, missed yesterday's game. Hopefully he's back because
- 40:58Speaker 4: he's one of the Red Sox best hitters, although I guess.
- 41:01Speaker 2: They didn't need him yesterday. But I came out.
- 41:04Speaker 4: I was at a concert last night sort of in
- 41:07Speaker 4: the Fenway Park area, and I walked down to the
- 41:10Speaker 4: Fenway area and it was like almost midnight and the
- 41:12Speaker 4: crowd was just getting out. I'm like, what the fuck,
- 41:14Speaker 4: because like the game was like seven o'clock, so I'm like,
- 41:17Speaker 4: usually the game's gonna end ten o'clock, like at the latest,
- 41:21Speaker 4: and I'm like the game is just getting out right
- 41:23Speaker 4: now and it's like midnight. What the fuck happened in
- 41:25Speaker 4: this game? Well, the game went thirteen innings. The Red
- 41:29Speaker 4: Sox became the first team ever to score in five
- 41:34Speaker 4: innings in a row in an extra innings game that's
- 41:38Speaker 4: never happened before. They scored in the ninth, tenth, eleven, twelfth,
- 41:41Speaker 4: and thirteenth. The Red Sox scored runs in all of them,
- 41:44Speaker 4: although again that's partially because of the ghost Runner. You
- 41:46Speaker 4: gotta get rid of the ghost Runner, man, because again,
- 41:48Speaker 4: this was like a game that everyone's gonna be talking about,
- 41:51Speaker 4: a historic game. Everybody loves these games to go into
- 41:55Speaker 4: massive amounts of extra innings, you know what I mean,
- 41:57Speaker 4: because they're epic, epic.
- 41:58Speaker 2: Games, and you don't like it day.
- 42:00Speaker 4: You don't want to be a fan of that team
- 42:02Speaker 4: the day afterwards, though, you know, at least they won
- 42:04Speaker 4: the game, the Red Sox did, but I don't like
- 42:07Speaker 4: their situation coming into the game today, you know what
- 42:09Speaker 4: I mean. The bullpen is just absolutely shredded after that game.
- 42:13Speaker 4: So it's a bad thing, but it makes for like
- 42:16Speaker 4: really good entertainment and people. You could tell people love
- 42:20Speaker 4: that shit like that was one of the most epic
- 42:22Speaker 4: games in the last couple of seasons. It's probably the
- 42:24Speaker 4: most epic one since the ghost Runner era. And people
- 42:29Speaker 4: don't want more of that. Well, you're gonna get more
- 42:31Speaker 4: games like that if you get rid of the Ghost Runner, man,
- 42:34Speaker 4: even though you'll have fewer runs being scored, but the
- 42:36Speaker 4: game people like them. When that game keeps going longer
- 42:39Speaker 4: and longer and it's suspense and like who's gonna win,
- 42:42Speaker 4: it's crazy.
- 42:43Speaker 2: The other thing the Red Sox did in that game.
- 42:45Speaker 4: Is they because of the Ghost Runner again, the Red
- 42:49Speaker 4: Sox erased seven separate deficits in that game, although five
- 42:54Speaker 4: of them were in the late innings you know whatever.
- 42:57Speaker 4: But the Red Sox were losing seven different times in
- 42:59Speaker 4: the game, including losing four to nothing early in the game,
- 43:03Speaker 4: and they wound up coming back and tying the game
- 43:05Speaker 4: I think at five, then fell behind again. The Red
- 43:07Speaker 4: Sox tied the game of the night and it was crazy, dude.
- 43:11Speaker 4: The Red Sox are playing.
- 43:14Speaker 2: With a lot of like a lot of intensity, man.
- 43:18Speaker 2: That's what I gotta say. They keep winning games. I
- 43:20Speaker 2: don't know what to tell you. I don't think they're
- 43:22Speaker 2: this good.
- 43:22Speaker 4: I don't think there's value on them in like the
- 43:24Speaker 4: future market at this point or anything like that. Like
- 43:26Speaker 4: I said yesterday, they're the favorites now to win the
- 43:29Speaker 4: al odds on favorites. I wouldn't play that because they're
- 43:33Speaker 4: just over hyped right now. But the good thing for
- 43:35Speaker 4: them is they get to play the A's here, and
- 43:37Speaker 4: the A's are not a good team, so maybe the
- 43:39Speaker 4: Red Sox will be able to win this series. But
- 43:42Speaker 4: I don't like the setup coming off of that epic
- 43:45Speaker 4: game last night, and you think it would be a
- 43:47Speaker 4: letdown for the Red Sox. The thing is, I can't
- 43:49Speaker 4: really come in and play the A's here either. Red
- 43:52Speaker 4: Sox might have the better starting pitcher here and whatever, still,
- 43:57Speaker 4: so I don't really want to do that. The A's
- 43:59Speaker 4: are playing some bad baseball, so this is a streak
- 44:02Speaker 4: versus a streak. At least maybe you do come in
- 44:05Speaker 4: and play the A's here. Man, the A's have lost
- 44:08Speaker 4: eight games in a row and the Red Sox I
- 44:09Speaker 4: think have one eight or nine games in a row.
- 44:12Speaker 4: So you have two streaks going in opposite directions here
- 44:15Speaker 4: that are colliding here. But the Red Sox use everybody
- 44:18Speaker 4: out of their bullpen yesterday, even though I know they
- 44:20Speaker 4: have the best bullpen in baseball. They gave up some
- 44:23Speaker 4: runs yesterday, but here, yeah, they used eight relief pitchers yesterday.
- 44:26Speaker 2: They used everyone. So this is not good.
- 44:29Speaker 4: The Red Sox is gonna need totally to get them
- 44:32Speaker 4: deep in this game today. Man, he has the ability
- 44:35Speaker 4: to do that.
- 44:35Speaker 2: But we'll see.
- 44:36Speaker 4: The Red Sox are still number one in bullpen though
- 44:38Speaker 4: they still have a really low ERA and whip, and
- 44:41Speaker 4: the A's are a terrible bullpen twenty eighth. They're the
- 44:45Speaker 4: worst bullpen era. Red Sox are actually now ahead of
- 44:49Speaker 4: the A's and offense, the Red Sox are fifteenth now
- 44:52Speaker 4: and the.
- 44:52Speaker 2: A's are eighteen.
- 44:53Speaker 4: So this Red Sox offense all of a sudden not
- 44:57Speaker 4: putrid at least at this point. A's offen has been
- 45:00Speaker 4: worse recently. Now, the A's might have a little bit
- 45:03Speaker 4: of a revenge modeve or something. The Red Sox might
- 45:06Speaker 4: overlook them because the Red Sox just went into Sacramento,
- 45:09Speaker 4: into that terrible stadium and won three out of the
- 45:11Speaker 4: four games there, although every game was close, So you
- 45:14Speaker 4: could take that kind of two ways, right, Like, the
- 45:17Speaker 4: Red Sox might overlook the A's a little bit because
- 45:19Speaker 4: they just beat them on the road three out of four,
- 45:21Speaker 4: but they might take them a little bit more seriously
- 45:23Speaker 4: because every game was close. But yeah, I mean, it
- 45:27Speaker 4: could go either one of those ways, I guess, is
- 45:29Speaker 4: what I'm saying.
- 45:30Speaker 2: So I don't know. Jack Perkins is getting the start
- 45:34Speaker 2: for the A's and he did pitch pretty well against
- 45:35Speaker 2: the Red Sox in that series, and I think he's
- 45:37Speaker 2: better than his six point seven two eras suggests. He's
- 45:41Speaker 2: got a one point four whip.
- 45:42Speaker 4: Which is still not really that good, but he's got
- 45:46Speaker 4: strikeout ability. Man, He's still pretty young, and he the
- 45:49Speaker 4: fact that he could strike guys out tells you that
- 45:51Speaker 4: he's got some talent there. He's been better on the
- 45:54Speaker 4: road at least, although five point nine to seven e
- 45:56Speaker 4: RRAs still not good, but he's better away from that
- 46:00Speaker 4: horrible as stadium. He pitched well in that game against
- 46:03Speaker 4: the Red Sox, like I said, although he was a
- 46:04Speaker 4: little bit wild, but he won hit the Red Sox.
- 46:07Speaker 2: He did the sixth inning.
- 46:08Speaker 4: Red Sox still won the game, but Perkins was difficult
- 46:12Speaker 4: for them to hit.
- 46:14Speaker 2: And Perkins struck.
- 46:15Speaker 4: Out a lot of guys in his last outing against Detroit,
- 46:17Speaker 4: but he gave up a lot of runs in that one.
- 46:19Speaker 4: He was definitely hittable in that one, and that's kind
- 46:21Speaker 4: of been his problem as he's actually been too hittable.
- 46:24Speaker 4: Usually when you get guys that strike guys out at
- 46:26Speaker 4: a rate like he does. He has a really high
- 46:28Speaker 4: strikeout rate. Usually the walks of the problem, but with
- 46:31Speaker 4: him that's not really the case. His walk rate is
- 46:35Speaker 4: somewhat okay. His hit rate is a bit high, so
- 46:37Speaker 4: that's kind of an issue. And yeah, he's allowed.
- 46:40Speaker 2: A lot of home runs.
- 46:41Speaker 4: But even though this is a hitter friendly park and Fenway,
- 46:44Speaker 4: it's not the A's stadium. At least Perkins has faced
- 46:48Speaker 4: the Red Sox. Now, now that might mean the Red
- 46:50Speaker 4: Sox might hit him better this time, right, because the
- 46:52Speaker 4: Red Sox hadn't seen him before the first time they
- 46:55Speaker 4: faced him, and there's that unfamiliarity edge that a pitcher
- 46:58Speaker 4: might have the first time he faced as an offense.
- 47:01Speaker 4: But now that the Red Sox just saw him, the
- 47:03Speaker 4: Red Sox got to look at him, and now the
- 47:04Speaker 4: Red Sox might hit him better, you know what I mean.
- 47:07Speaker 4: But they didn't dwell against him in that other game.
- 47:09Speaker 4: They have twenty at bats against him, actually, so they
- 47:11Speaker 4: may have actually seen him other than that one out.
- 47:14Speaker 4: He looks like they saw him maybe in like a
- 47:16Speaker 4: relief appearance or something as well. But the Red Socks
- 47:19Speaker 4: only have a one hundred average against him, five eighty
- 47:21Speaker 4: ops five to five strike out walk ratio though, so
- 47:24Speaker 4: they were able to draw walks against him. But yeah,
- 47:27Speaker 4: the Red Sox haven't done well against him. And actually
- 47:29Speaker 4: one of the hits, the home run that's against him,
- 47:33Speaker 4: is one of the Red Sox trade deadline acquisitions, Jake Rogers,
- 47:37Speaker 4: who didn't leave his mustache either. Man, what's wrong with him?
- 47:40Speaker 4: He grew out a full beard. When he used to
- 47:42Speaker 4: have this crazy mustache that made him look like he
- 47:45Speaker 4: belonged in the seventies, but.
- 47:46Speaker 2: Now he grew a full beard.
- 47:48Speaker 4: Come on, man, Not that I mind the beard, but
- 47:50Speaker 4: the mustache had had an aura to it, you know.
- 47:54Speaker 4: But it's hilarious that Rogers, the backup catcher that the
- 47:57Speaker 4: Red Sox had as a they got him with right
- 48:00Speaker 4: tremand in a throw in. I think Rogers was a
- 48:02Speaker 4: kind of a throw in in that deal. I'm pretty sure,
- 48:05Speaker 4: something like don't know, Yeah, I think Rogers was on Baltimore.
- 48:08Speaker 4: I forget because I remember him being on Detroit. But
- 48:11Speaker 4: Rogers is on the Red Sox roster right now as
- 48:13Speaker 4: their backup catcher, and maybe they should actually have him
- 48:15Speaker 4: start today because he has a home run against Perkins
- 48:19Speaker 4: and he was not on the Red Sox when the
- 48:21Speaker 4: Red Sox faced Perkins before, so that's kind of funny.
- 48:24Speaker 4: Red Sox is going with Peyton Totley here. He's been
- 48:26Speaker 4: good and he's dude, this guy gets fired up.
- 48:30Speaker 2: Man.
- 48:30Speaker 4: I like his I like his fire. He's in the dugout,
- 48:34Speaker 4: you know, when he's not pitching. He's in the dugout
- 48:36Speaker 4: during all these Red Sox games. He's getting all fired
- 48:39Speaker 4: up when the Red Sox are doing well and getting
- 48:41Speaker 4: all pumped up, and he's one of the first guys
- 48:44Speaker 4: out of the dugout when they win and just going
- 48:46Speaker 4: crazy on the field. I'm like, fuck yeah. I like
- 48:48Speaker 4: this guy's energy. I like his stash. I like big
- 48:52Speaker 4: men that like to eat steak like Peyton Totley does.
- 48:54Speaker 2: Fuck yeah.
- 48:56Speaker 4: Three point three r A for him, one point one
- 48:58Speaker 4: five whips the number for him are good as well.
- 49:01Speaker 4: He is a little bit worse at home though, three
- 49:03Speaker 4: point seven to two Homier Rab's still not bad. He
- 49:06Speaker 4: pitched in that A's series and he did reasonably well
- 49:08Speaker 4: in that one. He pitched against Jack Perkins actually and
- 49:11Speaker 4: wind up getting the win in that start, and he
- 49:14Speaker 4: slightly outpitched Perkins in that game. Mostly just because he
- 49:18Speaker 4: had more strikeouts and fewer walks. Totally back that up.
- 49:22Speaker 4: He followed that up with a good start at the
- 49:24Speaker 4: Dodgers as well, so totally's doing some damage against some
- 49:27Speaker 4: good offenses here. That's a good sign. Going up against
- 49:31Speaker 4: the A's. Of course, they basically only saw him in
- 49:33Speaker 4: that one start. He sell him to a TWOA at
- 49:36Speaker 4: average six ninety eight oh ps six to one strikeout
- 49:38Speaker 4: walk ratio twenty four at bats. I think maybe the
- 49:43Speaker 4: only approach he could really take here maybe is to
- 49:46Speaker 4: go first five under in this one and just go
- 49:48Speaker 4: with the starting pitchers to use their talent to work
- 49:52Speaker 4: their way through that. The full game totals eight and
- 49:54Speaker 4: a half, you're probably gonna be looking at about four
- 49:57Speaker 4: maybe four and a half in the first five, which
- 49:59Speaker 4: isn't too bad out of a number. Sixty one percent
- 50:01Speaker 4: of tickets on the under, though fifty four percent of
- 50:03Speaker 4: the cash or the over money looks like it's kind
- 50:06Speaker 4: of backing the over here, but I think first five
- 50:08Speaker 4: under makes some sense. I would avoid both bullpens though
- 50:11Speaker 4: Red Sox bullpen just they're way too overworked here. A's
- 50:16Speaker 4: bullpen is something you could never back in my opinion.
- 50:19Speaker 4: Red Sox are also just way too heavy of a favorite.
- 50:21Speaker 4: Their minus two sixty. I mean, after the Red Sox
- 50:25Speaker 4: burned out their whole bullpen. I mean I understand how
- 50:27Speaker 4: bad the A's bullpen is. Yeah, I mean that price
- 50:31Speaker 4: is just not right. Like, should the Red Sox win
- 50:34Speaker 4: this game, hopefully, but they're in a tough spot coming
- 50:39Speaker 4: off the way that game went last night, huge emotional win.
- 50:42Speaker 4: To come back repeatedly in a game like that and
- 50:45Speaker 4: go thirteen innings. I want nothing to do with the
- 50:47Speaker 4: Red Sox here. They got ninety four percent of the
- 50:49Speaker 4: tickets seventy six percent of the cash on them, so
- 50:51Speaker 4: the money is fading them.
- 50:53Speaker 2: And I guess taking the shot with.
- 50:54Speaker 4: The A's here, if you do play the A's, you're
- 50:57Speaker 4: just playing them to kind of keep it close. I
- 50:58Speaker 4: would still probably only do it the first five though,
- 51:01Speaker 4: and maybe it could be a low score that kind
- 51:03Speaker 4: of goes along with that under in the first five.
- 51:05Speaker 4: If it's a low scoring game, it might mean the
- 51:07Speaker 4: underdog is kind of hanging around in that game, all right.
- 51:11Speaker 4: Next game up is my last play of the day,
- 51:19Speaker 4: So you know, this is the one where I agree
- 51:20Speaker 4: with Pinzie. But I'm just playing the Cleveland money line
- 51:22Speaker 4: here minus one thirty eight. I know, I don't love
- 51:26Speaker 4: that price range, really, but I think it's reasonable enough
- 51:29Speaker 4: and I think we have a lot going for us
- 51:30Speaker 4: year with Cleveland. First of all, we're fading the White
- 51:33Speaker 4: Sox because they were also involved in that game with
- 51:35Speaker 4: the Red Sox yesterday. Brutal, absolutely brutal. They that would
- 51:39Speaker 4: have been huge if the White Sox beat the Red Sox.
- 51:41Speaker 4: The White Sox are now owned six against the Red
- 51:44Speaker 4: Sox this year. White Sox also had a chance to
- 51:46Speaker 4: end the wind streak, the current win streak for the
- 51:49Speaker 4: hottest seam in baseball basically, and the White Sox almost
- 51:53Speaker 4: had it.
- 51:54Speaker 2: It looked like they had.
- 51:55Speaker 4: It like seven different times basically in the game and
- 51:58Speaker 4: blew it every single time. That's gonna be brutal for
- 52:01Speaker 4: the White Sox to come off of that. Plus, they're
- 52:03Speaker 4: also returning home from a road trip or they went
- 52:05Speaker 4: to Tampa Bay and Boston played some big games there.
- 52:09Speaker 4: Now they're coming home and they have a three game
- 52:10Speaker 4: lead over Cleveland, who they're playing here.
- 52:12Speaker 2: Now. Cleveland might have a little bit of extra motivation
- 52:14Speaker 2: here for that reason too, because Cleveland's behind them in
- 52:17Speaker 2: the standings and still trying to win this division. Chicago, Minnesota,
- 52:21Speaker 2: and Cleveland are all still trying to win this division.
- 52:23Speaker 2: Detroit's actually still playing with effort too, hilariously, even though
- 52:27Speaker 2: they sold off of the trade deadline. It would be
- 52:30Speaker 2: just it would be very Al.
- 52:32Speaker 4: Central if Detroit won this one the division despite selling at.
- 52:37Speaker 2: The trade deadline.
- 52:38Speaker 4: That seems like something that would happen in the Al
- 52:41Speaker 4: Central if you remember last year Cleveland did that. Last
- 52:43Speaker 4: year Cleveland sold at the trade deadline, I'm pretty sure
- 52:46Speaker 4: and lost like some of their bulpen arms to gambling
- 52:49Speaker 4: or whatever.
- 52:49Speaker 2: Then Cleveland wound up winning the division somehow. Just completely ridiculous.
- 52:56Speaker 2: It might happen with Detroit here.
- 52:58Speaker 4: But anyway, it's a bad spot for the White Sox
- 53:01Speaker 4: the return home spot. Even though you're playing against the
- 53:03Speaker 4: team that's battling you in your division, you have a
- 53:06Speaker 4: three game lead over them, So I think the team
- 53:08Speaker 4: that has the three game lead might have the tendency
- 53:10Speaker 4: to take their foot off the gas a little bit
- 53:12Speaker 4: in a matchup like that, And I think it's just
- 53:14Speaker 4: brutal for the White Sox to be coming off that
- 53:16Speaker 4: extra inning game no time off having a return home
- 53:19Speaker 4: from the road. Cleveland has an easier travel spot because
- 53:23Speaker 4: they're starting a road trip coming in from Cleveland.
- 53:25Speaker 2: That's a better spot.
- 53:26Speaker 4: And when things aren't going well for you, like you
- 53:28Speaker 4: get swept at home by the Mets, that's what happened
- 53:31Speaker 4: with Cleveland, one of the best things for you leave
- 53:34Speaker 4: go out on the road. Don't listen to what the
- 53:36Speaker 4: media is saying whatever, just leave and go focus on baseball.
- 53:40Speaker 2: That's what Cleveland's gonna do here.
- 53:41Speaker 4: Yesterday was an embarrassing loss for them, thirteen to six
- 53:45Speaker 4: to the Mets. Doesn't get much worse than that, so
- 53:47Speaker 4: I think they're gonna be in a bounced back spot here.
- 53:49Speaker 4: So I really like the situation for Cleveland here. But
- 53:53Speaker 4: I also like the starting pitching and we'll go full
- 53:56Speaker 4: game on it because the situation is good enough. Plus,
- 53:59Speaker 4: the White Sox have a burned out bullpen. They used
- 54:01Speaker 4: everyone except Nukeomb yesterday. Duke nukemb Sean Nucomb was on
- 54:05Speaker 4: the Red Sox for a little while. Actually, Nucomb is
- 54:08Speaker 4: kind of a long relief man, so he's not really
- 54:11Speaker 4: anything special. And Eric Fetti only threw five pitches, so
- 54:15Speaker 4: he might find his way into this game today too,
- 54:17Speaker 4: but that's not a good thing if you're the White Sox.
- 54:19Speaker 4: Fetty also took the loss in the game yesterday. I'm
- 54:22Speaker 4: pretty sure he was in that last inning there. Brian Bao,
- 54:25Speaker 4: expert relief pitcher. Brian Bao got the win in the game.
- 54:29Speaker 4: I think he did get charged with one run last night.
- 54:32Speaker 4: Maybe he didn't, but he got the win. He pitched
- 54:34Speaker 4: the last couple of innings there.
- 54:36Speaker 2: Ridiculous.
- 54:37Speaker 4: Brian BeO is one of the best relief pitchers in baseball,
- 54:40Speaker 4: but he sucks ass as a starter anyway. I'll bet
- 54:44Speaker 4: Cleveland's bullpen here. Even though they used five guys out
- 54:46Speaker 4: of the bullpen, they didn't really use any of their
- 54:49Speaker 4: better relievers for the most I mean, they didn't use
- 54:51Speaker 4: Gaddis at least he's their closer or Smith, who I
- 54:54Speaker 4: think is one of their better relief pitchers as well.
- 54:57Speaker 4: So I think Cleveland sets up better in the bullpen here.
- 55:00Speaker 4: You could debate through the better bullpen anyway. I think
- 55:02Speaker 4: it's close. Cleveland's nineteenth, but their erays below four, so
- 55:06Speaker 4: it's not really that bad. The White Sox are fifteenth.
- 55:09Speaker 4: They do have the better ERA, but it's not by much.
- 55:11Speaker 4: And again the situation is just really ugly for them here. Offensively, yes,
- 55:16Speaker 4: I know Cleveland's offense is bad. They're twenty ninth, but
- 55:18Speaker 4: I like good pitching to overcome good hitting. White Sox
- 55:21Speaker 4: are sixteenth right now and hitting tied with the Rangers.
- 55:26Speaker 4: They did put up some runs yesterday, but they were
- 55:28Speaker 4: struggling in the series prior to that.
- 55:30Speaker 2: Of course, it was against the Red Sox.
- 55:31Speaker 4: The Red Sox have good pitching, but good pitching is
- 55:34Speaker 4: what the White Sox are going to be facing here
- 55:36Speaker 4: because Parker Messik is pitching for Cleveland. He actually took
- 55:39Speaker 4: the loss I think in the first game in that
- 55:42Speaker 4: Mets series. Cleveland couldn't get the job done behind Messick.
- 55:46Speaker 4: They get another chance to get a win here behind
- 55:47Speaker 4: Messick here. Though Messic has had a good season two
- 55:50Speaker 4: point five to seven ERA, one point oh six whip,
- 55:53Speaker 4: he's been even better on the road two point two
- 55:55Speaker 4: roady are with a below two hundred batting average on
- 55:58Speaker 4: the road.
- 55:58Speaker 2: That's really good.
- 56:00Speaker 4: He struggled in that game against Arizona, but he threw
- 56:02Speaker 4: too many pitches. He struck out a lot of guys.
- 56:05Speaker 4: He only allowed one a in runs, so he wasn't
- 56:07Speaker 4: really that bad.
- 56:08Speaker 3: Oh.
- 56:08Speaker 2: Actually, sorry, he didn't pitch in the Mets series. My mistake.
- 56:10Speaker 2: I was thinking of this Arizona game. Cleveland Sema lost.
- 56:13Speaker 4: This game against Arizona, but it wasn't really Messi's fault.
- 56:17Speaker 4: Although he was inefficient with his pitches for sure, but
- 56:20Speaker 4: he only allowed one er and run and the fielding
- 56:22Speaker 4: wasn't very helpful behind him. Prior to that, he was
- 56:24Speaker 4: pitching really well. Now, the one issue is his pitch count,
- 56:28Speaker 4: his innings pitch because he's a young guy who hasn't
- 56:30Speaker 4: thrown this many innings before. He's up to about one
- 56:33Speaker 4: thirty now, so you might have to start worrying a
- 56:35Speaker 4: little bit about that. But I think he might bounce
- 56:37Speaker 4: back here. Man, he's not throwing that many pitches like.
- 56:40Speaker 4: They don't regularly have him thrown a hundred or whatever,
- 56:42Speaker 4: So I'm not too concerned about this yet. He's got
- 56:45Speaker 4: a low hit rate, pretty low walk right here as well,
- 56:48Speaker 4: decent strikeout rate. All his numbers look pretty good here.
- 56:51Speaker 4: And against the White Sox they have seen him a
- 56:54Speaker 4: couple of times. They have forty eight at bats against them.
- 56:56Speaker 4: They have not had success against them. They have a
- 56:58Speaker 4: one to eighty eight to average of five sixty two
- 57:01Speaker 4: ops off him thirteen to four strikeout walk ratio, So
- 57:04Speaker 4: Messk has had the better of them, and he's the
- 57:06Speaker 4: better pitcher here. He's going up against another young guy,
- 57:09Speaker 4: Noah Schultz. I think Schultz might eventually be good, but
- 57:13Speaker 4: he's struggling right now, especially with his wildness. He's got
- 57:15Speaker 4: a five point eight two ERA one point three to
- 57:18Speaker 4: eight whip isn't that bad, Like it kind of indicates
- 57:21Speaker 4: his ERA should be a little bit better, but it's
- 57:23Speaker 4: not great either. Schultz is better at home. I'll give
- 57:26Speaker 4: him that five point one to four home ra. He's
- 57:28Speaker 4: been tough to hit at home. And he did just
- 57:30Speaker 4: pitch well in Tampa Bay last time I which is
- 57:33Speaker 4: a decent sign, and they didn't overwork him. They took
- 57:36Speaker 4: him out after five innings, low pitch count in that one.
- 57:38Speaker 4: He was very efficient in that game, so that does
- 57:41Speaker 4: look good. But he was really really struggling prior to that,
- 57:44Speaker 4: and he's really been struggling with the walks man, so
- 57:47Speaker 4: I don't know if one start is really signaling a
- 57:49Speaker 4: complete turnaround for him. He's been pretty difficult to hit,
- 57:52Speaker 4: so that's good, but his walk rate is quite high,
- 57:55Speaker 4: which is bad.
- 57:56Speaker 2: His strike out rates is not really that high.
- 57:59Speaker 4: Want to I want him to do well, you know,
- 58:01Speaker 4: maybe not in this game because I want to get
- 58:02Speaker 4: this pick right, but I want him to do well
- 58:05Speaker 4: just because I kind of like.
- 58:06Speaker 2: His profile and I like tall guys, guys that are
- 58:10Speaker 2: at six', ten you know WHAT i. MEAN i want
- 58:12Speaker 2: him to. Succeed and Because i'm not an? Asshole what
- 58:15Speaker 2: do you? Want you THINK i, am But i'm. Not
- 58:19Speaker 2: BUT i don't know about this.
- 58:20Speaker 4: Man cleveland hasn't seen him, before Though Joe adell faced
- 58:23Speaker 4: him and his zerover two with two. Strikeouts they got
- 58:26Speaker 4: a dell over from My. Anaheim so, Yes schultz is
- 58:29Speaker 4: unfamiliar To cleveland and their offense isn't really that, good
- 58:31Speaker 4: so he does have an unfamiliarity yet. Here but you
- 58:34Speaker 4: saw what the situation looks. Like it's a situational advantage For.
- 58:37Speaker 4: CLEVELAND i know the price tags a little bit high
- 58:39Speaker 4: here on the. Road it's gone up for minus one
- 58:42Speaker 4: twenty four into the minus one thirty something. Range here
- 58:46Speaker 4: the money looks like it's agreeing with me on. This
- 58:48Speaker 4: seventy three percent of tickets fifty three percent of Tickets
- 58:51Speaker 4: excuseuly seventy three percent of the cash On.
- 58:53Speaker 2: Cleveland SO i.
- 58:54Speaker 4: Think we're getting market agreement at least on these. Two
- 58:57Speaker 4: AND i thought we were getting agreement on The mets as,
- 58:59Speaker 4: well ALTHOUGH i guess we're. Not that's the WEAKEST i
- 59:02Speaker 4: think of the three. Plays MAYBE i shouldn't be on The,
- 59:05Speaker 4: mets but it is what it is at this. Point
- 59:08Speaker 4: let's try to at least go two and one, today,
- 59:10Speaker 4: man and we want to get these favorite plays.
- 59:13Speaker 2: Right you, know as long as we go two and,
- 59:15Speaker 2: one will still have a winning.
- 59:16Speaker 4: Day But i'd rather get the favorites right than the,
- 59:19Speaker 4: underdog you, know just because you're paying more for. It but,
- 59:22Speaker 4: yes the money looks like it. Agrees we'll do. It
- 59:24Speaker 4: we'll Take cleveland. HERE i think it's a good spot
- 59:27Speaker 4: to do.
- 59:27Speaker 2: IT i think we have the.
- 59:28Speaker 4: Pitching edge there and hopefully the bullpen advantage as.
- 59:32Speaker 2: Well so let's do.
- 59:33Speaker 4: It minnesota At. Milwaukee this is kind of a weird
- 59:37Speaker 4: match up. Here milwaukee is coming off that big series Against.
- 59:40Speaker 4: Pittsburgh maybe it could be a little bit of a
- 59:42Speaker 4: letdown because that was still a pretty big divisional series From.
- 59:45Speaker 4: MILWAUKEE i don't know if they're really going to pay
- 59:47Speaker 4: that much attention To. Minnesota minnesota is trying to win their,
- 59:50Speaker 4: division they might be a little bit more. Focused and
- 59:53Speaker 4: they just ended a four game losing. Streak they beat
- 59:56Speaker 4: The royals, yesterday so both teams did play. Yesterday minnesota
- 1:00:01Speaker 4: might be the team with a little bit more focus,
- 1:00:02Speaker 4: here though obviously they have a big bullpen disadvantage. Here
- 1:00:05Speaker 4: minnesota used three guys Yesterday, minneso so Did, milwaukee And
- 1:00:09Speaker 4: milwaukee actually didn't use Mic gail even though it was
- 1:00:11Speaker 4: a safe situation they had a three run. Lead i'm
- 1:00:14Speaker 4: pretty Sure milwaukee's definitely the better.
- 1:00:16Speaker 2: Bullpen they ranked. Ninth they have one of the best
- 1:00:19Speaker 2: bullpen e.
- 1:00:20Speaker 4: Rays, still they're like top four in bullpen e, ray,
- 1:00:24Speaker 4: which by the, WAY i forgot to actually point Out
- 1:00:26Speaker 4: yankees are number two in bullpen e ray And braves
- 1:00:29Speaker 4: are number. Three by the, way just to clarify WHAT
- 1:00:31Speaker 4: i said, earlier The yankees have a considerably better bullpen
- 1:00:35Speaker 4: e array Than, atlanta by the, way and they rested,
- 1:00:38Speaker 4: anyway what WAS i talking?
- 1:00:40Speaker 2: About oh, yeah the bullpen for what are we talking? About?
- 1:00:43Speaker 2: Minnesota they. Sucked they're twenty ninth, yeah Obviously milwaukee has
- 1:00:47Speaker 2: the better bullpen. Here milwaukee probably has the.
- 1:00:49Speaker 4: Better offense To they're, Eighth minnesota, twelve tied with The
- 1:00:52Speaker 4: yankees and The, Giants but, YEAH i Think milwaukee does
- 1:00:56Speaker 4: probably have the edge throughout this, game probably in the
- 1:00:59Speaker 4: starting pitching as. Well minnesota's going with Zebulon matthews again
- 1:01:03Speaker 4: here five point two TWO, era one point three to
- 1:01:06Speaker 4: one whip not too, bad but not great, either And
- 1:01:10Speaker 4: zebi has been really bad on the road seven point
- 1:01:13Speaker 4: three to three ROAD, era so you do not want
- 1:01:15Speaker 4: to back him on the road, typically though he did
- 1:01:17Speaker 4: actually do fairly well in his last road. Start it
- 1:01:20Speaker 4: was in a pitcher friendly park In, seattle and he
- 1:01:22Speaker 4: had ten strikeouts in five, innings which is pretty, impressive
- 1:01:25Speaker 4: although he threw too many, pitches but he was able
- 1:01:28Speaker 4: to strike a bunch of guys, Out so there's that
- 1:01:29Speaker 4: strikeout stuff THAT i kind of thought that he. Had
- 1:01:32Speaker 4: over the course of the, season his strikeout rate has
- 1:01:34Speaker 4: not been very, high though his hit rate is right
- 1:01:36Speaker 4: around one per, inning which is. Mediocre his walk rate's
- 1:01:39Speaker 4: not too bad, though BUT i thought that he was
- 1:01:41Speaker 4: a better strikeout pitcher than what.
- 1:01:42Speaker 2: He's shown this.
- 1:01:44Speaker 4: SEASON i don't really Trust zebbi here, though AND i
- 1:01:47Speaker 4: don't know WHY espn doesn't have his batter versus Pitcher.
- 1:01:50Speaker 4: Tabob it looks like they send him to the, miners
- 1:01:52Speaker 4: but he pitched On july, thirty first in The major so.
- 1:01:55Speaker 2: It's not like he's had that much time. OFF i
- 1:01:57Speaker 2: don't know what that. Was Against.
- 1:02:00Speaker 4: Milwaukee he's actually been pretty good against, them but they
- 1:02:04Speaker 4: only have five hitters w have faced. Him seven at,
- 1:02:07Speaker 4: bats five, strikeouts two, walks one forty three average four
- 1:02:10Speaker 4: to seventy six oh. Ps the one hits a single From.
- 1:02:14Speaker 4: YELLICK i got nothing really on. That it's a small sample,
- 1:02:18Speaker 4: size But matthews has done alright Against milwaukee when he
- 1:02:21Speaker 4: has faced.
- 1:02:21Speaker 2: Them milwaukee's going With Shane drohan.
- 1:02:24Speaker 4: Here he's had a pretty good season three point four
- 1:02:26Speaker 4: to eighty ra one point one seven whip still not
- 1:02:29Speaker 4: good enough FOR espn to actually give him a photo,
- 1:02:32Speaker 4: here Though drohan has been slightly worse at home three
- 1:02:36Speaker 4: point seven to Three homie ra is still not. Bad
- 1:02:39Speaker 4: had a nice bounce back start last time after he
- 1:02:41Speaker 4: kind of struggled against The. Rockies got kind of unlucky
- 1:02:44Speaker 4: in that, one though he pitched better again Against anaheim last.
- 1:02:47Speaker 2: TIME i don't. Know that's not that.
- 1:02:48Speaker 4: Impressive anaheim not a good. Offense But drohan has been
- 1:02:51Speaker 4: pretty good all. Season low hit rate, here, decently low walk,
- 1:02:55Speaker 4: rate high strikeout rate as, well so good numbers here from. Him,
- 1:02:59Speaker 4: Again he's another one of the pictures The Red sox let,
- 1:03:02Speaker 4: go which doesn't make me feel too. Good minnesota has
- 1:03:05Speaker 4: never Faced drohan, before so he does have an unfamiliarity
- 1:03:08Speaker 4: edge here, too SO i think he does have the
- 1:03:10Speaker 4: advantage in this pitching matchup. Here Maybe matthews will kind
- 1:03:14Speaker 4: of turn it around after being sent to the miners.
- 1:03:17Speaker 4: HERE i wouldn't necessarily disagree with the first five under.
- 1:03:21Speaker 2: HERE i wouldn't really want to deal With minnesota's bullpen
- 1:03:24Speaker 2: full game totals at eight we have fifty percent of
- 1:03:26Speaker 2: tickets on the over seventy eight percent of the cash
- 1:03:28Speaker 2: in the.
- 1:03:28Speaker 4: UNDER i could see the argument for the first five under.
- 1:03:31Speaker 4: Here maybe both pitchers actually do okay enough. Here milwaukee
- 1:03:36Speaker 4: should have the advantage everywhere in this game that you're
- 1:03:39Speaker 4: paying for. It they're up to minus one eighty, something
- 1:03:42Speaker 4: ninety one percent of tickets ninety percent of the cash on,
- 1:03:45Speaker 4: them so they're a very public, side BUT i wouldn't
- 1:03:48Speaker 4: be able to Play minnesota, here you. KNOW i, MEAN
- 1:03:50Speaker 4: i guess it's all about the. Price and if you
- 1:03:52Speaker 4: do want to Play, MINNESOTA i think you have to
- 1:03:54Speaker 4: take them in the first five because they have a
- 1:03:56Speaker 4: big bullpend. Disadvantage MAYBE zebi can battle kind of keep
- 1:04:00Speaker 4: you in there in the first.
- 1:04:01Speaker 2: Five their bullpen.
- 1:04:03Speaker 4: SUCKS i see no way of back in their bullpen,
- 1:04:05Speaker 4: though SO i, think, yeah full. Game it seems Like
- 1:04:07Speaker 4: milwaukee has kind of too many advantages. There it's a
- 1:04:10Speaker 4: stay away from. Me this game, is this show is
- 1:04:15Speaker 4: taking a, while But i'm getting TO i interact with
- 1:04:18Speaker 4: the audience.
- 1:04:19Speaker 2: Though so there you, Go cubs And royals. Here The
- 1:04:23Speaker 2: royals lost.
- 1:04:24Speaker 4: Yesterday in A Minnesota royals not doing, well but they
- 1:04:27Speaker 4: are staying at home.
- 1:04:28Speaker 2: Here at.
- 1:04:28Speaker 4: Least the clubs had that makeup game where they got
- 1:04:31Speaker 4: that bullshit win with the two out to run home
- 1:04:34Speaker 4: run in the ninth inning yesterday to beat our, play
- 1:04:37Speaker 4: Which i'm fucking pissed, about especially because the first five
- 1:04:40Speaker 4: would have won AND i THINK i handicapped that game.
- 1:04:43Speaker 4: Correctly The cubs use four guys out of the bullpen.
- 1:04:46Speaker 4: Yesterday they're still better than The royals, bullpen who was
- 1:04:49Speaker 4: not good and use five relief.
- 1:04:51Speaker 2: Pitchers cubs have a decent. Bullpen they're.
- 1:04:53Speaker 4: Thirteenth royals are ranked dead last and whip and they're
- 1:04:57Speaker 4: the second WORST era to The a's not. Good cubs
- 1:05:00Speaker 4: are pretty good, offensively their third really good offensively. Recently
- 1:05:04Speaker 4: royals twenty, Seconds so The royals are definitely the worst
- 1:05:07Speaker 4: offense here as.
- 1:05:08Speaker 2: Well sab likes The royals. HERE i do.
- 1:05:12Speaker 4: NOT i don't see the argument for. It Kevin gussman
- 1:05:15Speaker 4: will be making his debut.
- 1:05:16Speaker 2: For The cubs.
- 1:05:17Speaker 4: Here he was starting to struggle With, toronto but he's
- 1:05:20Speaker 4: been pretty good over the last couple of, seasons and
- 1:05:22Speaker 4: he's a, veteran SO i don't think he's done, Yet
- 1:05:25Speaker 4: and maybe getting traded to a contending team might help
- 1:05:27Speaker 4: him get pumped up, again you know WHAT i. Mean
- 1:05:30Speaker 4: he might be motivated in his first start with his
- 1:05:32Speaker 4: new team because they're in, contention so he might get.
- 1:05:35Speaker 4: Excited he's got a four point three to EIGHTY ra
- 1:05:37Speaker 4: one point two to nine.
- 1:05:38Speaker 2: Whip those numbers have gotten worse.
- 1:05:40Speaker 4: Recently goussman struggled on the road this year five point
- 1:05:43Speaker 4: three to Three Rody. Ra but he pitched okay last
- 1:05:46Speaker 4: time out Against Saint. Louis that was In, toronto, though
- 1:05:49Speaker 4: and he's kind of on his regular schedule, here SO
- 1:05:52Speaker 4: i actually think that's good that he's pitching on his regular,
- 1:05:54Speaker 4: schedule has the right amount of days, off so that's not.
- 1:05:57Speaker 2: Bad he was a little bit too hittable in that
- 1:06:00Speaker 2: started Against.
- 1:06:00Speaker 1: Sat.
- 1:06:00Speaker 2: Louis, really he wasn't bad in his last two.
- 1:06:02Speaker 4: Outings he was decent against The Red sox in the
- 1:06:05Speaker 4: start before that, too but he got absolutely.
- 1:06:07Speaker 2: No run support in that.
- 1:06:08Speaker 4: One what else is new does have kind of a
- 1:06:10Speaker 4: high hit rate on the, season which is a little.
- 1:06:12Speaker 4: Concerning his walk rate's not bad, though strake gut rate
- 1:06:15Speaker 4: is not bad, Either so really he hasn't been.
- 1:06:17Speaker 2: Bad he's going.
- 1:06:19Speaker 4: Up against The cubs, here, though who are definitely a
- 1:06:21Speaker 4: lineup that can. Hit The cubs haven't done well Against goussman, though.
- 1:06:25Speaker 2: Or, no he's going up against The. Royals i'm an.
- 1:06:27Speaker 2: Idiot what AM i? Saying gausman is on the? Cobs my. Mistake,
- 1:06:30Speaker 2: sorry he's going up against The. ROYALS i think The royals.
- 1:06:32Speaker 4: Actually have hit him well kind of in seventy five
- 1:06:36Speaker 4: at bats to sixty, seven BECAUSE i was gonna SAY
- 1:06:38Speaker 4: i don't remember that to sixty seven average against them
- 1:06:41Speaker 4: seven to sixty two.
- 1:06:42Speaker 2: Oh ps is a little bit.
- 1:06:43Speaker 4: High in seventy five at bats twelve to three strake
- 1:06:46Speaker 4: out walk. Ratio they still don't really like totally destroy, him,
- 1:06:50Speaker 4: though Although marte And wit both hit him pretty. Well
- 1:06:54Speaker 4: SO i don't really want to Back gussman, here BUT
- 1:06:57Speaker 4: i Think sob is insane for trying to Back Kansas.
- 1:06:59Speaker 4: CITY i think if you're gonna play this, game you
- 1:07:01Speaker 4: probably shouldn't pick a starter For Kansas city here because
- 1:07:04Speaker 4: it's gonna be a bullpen game For Kansas. City is
- 1:07:07Speaker 4: that really what you want to? Back by the, way
- 1:07:08Speaker 4: one of the worst bullpens in baseball going with a
- 1:07:11Speaker 4: bullpen game against a good offense like The.
- 1:07:13Speaker 2: CUBS i wouldn't do. That Daniel, lynch the fourth looks
- 1:07:17Speaker 2: like he's getting the start for The, royals as at
- 1:07:20Speaker 2: least that's the way it looks. Now but, again IF
- 1:07:23Speaker 2: i was gonna play this, GAME i wouldn't pick a
- 1:07:24Speaker 2: starter for The royals. HERE i would just Pick gusman must,
- 1:07:29Speaker 2: start but not pick the starter for The. Royals lynch
- 1:07:32Speaker 2: has been, Good there's no doubt about. That but he's
- 1:07:34Speaker 2: not gonna give you that many innings.
- 1:07:35Speaker 4: Here he's a relief. Pitcher he typically goes about. Winning
- 1:07:38Speaker 4: he has started before in his, career so he might
- 1:07:42Speaker 4: pitch more than one inning, here and if he, does.
- 1:07:45Speaker 2: You, know that will.
- 1:07:46Speaker 4: HELP i think keeping the rest of The royals bullpen
- 1:07:49Speaker 4: out of this is probably gonna help for as long
- 1:07:51Speaker 4: as they. Can But, LYNCH i, mean The cubs have
- 1:07:54Speaker 4: seen him only for a couple of it, bats But
- 1:07:56Speaker 4: bregman does have a hit off. Him, BREGMAN i don't
- 1:07:59Speaker 4: even want to talk about it any more at this. Point
- 1:08:01Speaker 4: a guy who's no longer on The Red sox and
- 1:08:03Speaker 4: destroyed our bet that should have won On toronto, yesterday
- 1:08:06Speaker 4: Although i'm more mad At varland for that. ANYWAY i
- 1:08:11Speaker 4: don't trust A Kansas city bullpen, game, Man i'm. SORRY
- 1:08:13Speaker 4: i think the way to play this game is to
- 1:08:15Speaker 4: just play it over the. Total, gusman you, know doesn't
- 1:08:18Speaker 4: have great numbers Against Kansas. CITY i don't expect much
- 1:08:21Speaker 4: out of A Kansas city bullpen. Game the money's back
- 1:08:24Speaker 4: in the. UNDER i don't agree with. That season four
- 1:08:26Speaker 4: percent of tickets ninety three percent of the catch on the.
- 1:08:28Speaker 4: Under the toll is pretty high at nine or nine
- 1:08:30Speaker 4: and a. Half although it Is Kansas. City they moved
- 1:08:32Speaker 4: the walls, in so it's not that high for A
- 1:08:35Speaker 4: Kansas city game at this. Point but STILL i think
- 1:08:38Speaker 4: that's HOW i would do that is probably to play the.
- 1:08:40Speaker 4: OVER i think the runs will come home in that,
- 1:08:43Speaker 4: one all. Right baltimore And. Texas on the, surface to,
- 1:08:47Speaker 4: me this actually looked like it might be potentially an,
- 1:08:50Speaker 4: under another one of Those texas home. Unders texas is
- 1:08:53Speaker 4: staying at. Home they've started playing some more low scoring
- 1:08:56Speaker 4: games recently at. Home two out of the three Against
- 1:08:58Speaker 4: San francisco went on with two offenses that aren't really that.
- 1:09:03Speaker 4: Good texas is staying at home. HERE i Believe texas
- 1:09:06Speaker 4: had yesterday off as, well So texas has a rest advantage.
- 1:09:09Speaker 4: Here baltimore lost To anaheim yesterday and they have to.
- 1:09:13Speaker 4: Travel although they're starting a road, trip there's an advantage
- 1:09:17Speaker 4: For texas still Because texas is rested after. Yesterday so
- 1:09:21Speaker 4: we'll see if that helps their bullpend that hasn't been
- 1:09:24Speaker 4: pitching well. Recently baltimore used three guys out of the bullpen.
- 1:09:27Speaker 4: Yesterday baltimore has been the better bullpend. Generally other ranked.
- 1:09:31Speaker 4: Twelve texas is ranked, eighteenth But texas was better last
- 1:09:36Speaker 4: year Than baltimore, was and given the rest, EDGE i
- 1:09:38Speaker 4: think it's close between the two bullpens here in this.
- 1:09:41Speaker 4: ONE i think it's close between the offenses as. Well texas,
- 1:09:44Speaker 4: Sixteenth baltimore. Nineteenth we'll, see But, texas, again they do
- 1:09:50Speaker 4: have the rest advantage of staying at. Home Shane boss
- 1:09:53Speaker 4: is pitching For. Baltimore he's actually been pitching reasonably well.
- 1:09:56Speaker 4: Recently he's got a three point eight six e rail
- 1:09:58Speaker 4: those whips still is good one point three to. Seven
- 1:10:01Speaker 4: he's been a little bit worse on the road ray
- 1:10:04Speaker 4: wise four point oh, one but he's been less hittable
- 1:10:07Speaker 4: on the, road so. Interesting his walk rate goes up
- 1:10:10Speaker 4: on the, road but his batting average against goes. Down
- 1:10:13Speaker 4: he pitched really well last time out at home Against.
- 1:10:15Speaker 4: Philadelphia decent. Sign he's been bitching okay, recently although some
- 1:10:19Speaker 4: of these outings not going that deep into, them but
- 1:10:21Speaker 4: he hasn't really had an actual bad outing for a while,
- 1:10:24Speaker 4: here so he is pitching pretty well right. Now his
- 1:10:26Speaker 4: hit rate is still kind of high on the, season,
- 1:10:28Speaker 4: though which isn't. Good his walk rate is STILL i would,
- 1:10:31Speaker 4: say kind of slightly high as. Well strike out rate
- 1:10:34Speaker 4: is still not really that good, either ALTHOUGH i thought
- 1:10:36Speaker 4: he was a decent strikeout. Pitcher but he does have
- 1:10:39Speaker 4: good numbers against the who's he facing Again? Texas, right, Yeah.
- 1:10:45Speaker 4: Texas boz has been good against. Them nineteen at. BATS
- 1:10:48Speaker 4: i know it's not a big. Sample six hitters have faced,
- 1:10:51Speaker 4: him one fifty eight, average five oh one oh ps
- 1:10:54Speaker 4: allowed five to two strike out walk. Ratio SO i
- 1:10:57Speaker 4: would Say boz does have the upper hand herethan he
- 1:11:00Speaker 4: evolved he his pitcher For. TEXAS i don't know what's
- 1:11:02Speaker 4: going on with The. Evaldi it's been the home runs
- 1:11:04Speaker 4: have just killed him this. Year the rest of his
- 1:11:07Speaker 4: numbers are really, good but the home runs make him look.
- 1:11:09Speaker 4: Bad four point three to ONE, era one point two
- 1:11:11Speaker 4: to ONE, WHIP i guess isn't really that good at
- 1:11:13Speaker 4: this point. Either he was way better last, year but,
- 1:11:17Speaker 4: again if you look at his numbers, overall he's still
- 1:11:20Speaker 4: not really that. Bad he's been better at, home although
- 1:11:22Speaker 4: a four point one FOUR era isn't exactly, good but
- 1:11:25Speaker 4: two twenty two opponent batting average at home is. Good
- 1:11:28Speaker 4: and again it's been the home, runs which kind of
- 1:11:31Speaker 4: makes no sense because he pitches in a pitcher friendly.
- 1:11:34Speaker 4: Park he did get shelled last time on the road Against,
- 1:11:36Speaker 4: houston BUT i Believe houston typically does hit him, well
- 1:11:40Speaker 4: So i'm not gonna really put that much weighted to.
- 1:11:42Speaker 4: That but he did struggle a bit and a few
- 1:11:45Speaker 4: of his recent starts, here like two of his last
- 1:11:47Speaker 4: three have been, bad but they were both on the.
- 1:11:49Speaker 4: Road one was against The, braves So houston and The
- 1:11:52Speaker 4: braves both those teams can hit better Than. Baltimore ken
- 1:11:55Speaker 4: Really evaldi on the. Season his hit rate is still
- 1:11:58Speaker 4: not really that, high As walker is pretty. Low he
- 1:12:00Speaker 4: doesn't really walk. Guys he still has his strikeout. Stuff
- 1:12:04Speaker 4: and the weirdest thing is he's a ground ball. Pitcher
- 1:12:07Speaker 4: he gets a lot of ground, balls yet he's a
- 1:12:08Speaker 4: lot a ton of home runs this year, too which
- 1:12:11Speaker 4: really makes very little sense to. Me but WHAT i
- 1:12:14Speaker 4: can really kind of sink my teeth into here is
- 1:12:17Speaker 4: That evaldi is actually horrific Against. Baltimore baltimore has thirty
- 1:12:22Speaker 4: eight to bats against. HIM i thought it would be
- 1:12:23Speaker 4: more because The evaldi pitched for The yankees for a.
- 1:12:26Speaker 4: WHILE i thinking for the Red sox so he was
- 1:12:28Speaker 4: In baltimore's. Division But baltimore in those thirty eight at
- 1:12:32Speaker 4: bats they have a four to forty seven average against
- 1:12:35Speaker 4: him in a one thousand and one oh FIVE, ops
- 1:12:38Speaker 4: ten to three strike out Walker, Racier Gunner henderson particularly
- 1:12:41Speaker 4: destroys him and has the most of bats against. Him
- 1:12:44Speaker 4: SO i don't want to Back evaldi. Here texas does
- 1:12:47Speaker 4: have the rest edge, here so it seems like a
- 1:12:49Speaker 4: spot where he'd want to Back texas Because texas is
- 1:12:51Speaker 4: going to be more motivated as. Well they've finally gotten
- 1:12:55Speaker 4: back on track with two. Wins texas is right there
- 1:12:58Speaker 4: in The Al west right, now, Man So texas has
- 1:13:00Speaker 4: something to play for As baltimore. Doesn't, REALLY i don't
- 1:13:04Speaker 4: think it's enough. THOUGH i just can't Back evaldi given
- 1:13:06Speaker 4: what the matchup numbers look. Like seventy percent of, ticket
- 1:13:09Speaker 4: seventy nine percent of the cash On texas, though so
- 1:13:11Speaker 4: the money is back In, texas they're around minus one.
- 1:13:14Speaker 2: FORTY i, MEAN i gave you the arguments For.
- 1:13:16Speaker 4: Texas if you do want to do, it the arguments
- 1:13:18Speaker 4: would be rest, advantage motivational, advantage that's what you're, getting
- 1:13:22Speaker 4: and GENERALLY i would Say evaldi is better than, bos
- 1:13:25Speaker 4: but in this, MATCHUP i don't think he. Is SO
- 1:13:28Speaker 4: i Think boz does have the matchup. Edge the money
- 1:13:30Speaker 4: is still backing the, under for whatever that's. Worth it's
- 1:13:33Speaker 4: seven and a, half and, MAYBE i, MEAN i don't
- 1:13:37Speaker 4: think i'd play an over in this.
- 1:13:38Speaker 2: GAME i think you do have at.
- 1:13:39Speaker 4: LEAST i think you might actually have two all, right
- 1:13:42Speaker 4: bullpens here still at the very, least and both starters
- 1:13:45Speaker 4: are capable of.
- 1:13:46Speaker 2: Doing well in this.
- 1:13:47Speaker 4: Game PLUS i don't think the offenses or anything that,
- 1:13:50Speaker 4: Special so, YEAH i. COULD i think there are more
- 1:13:52Speaker 4: arguments for an under than an over still in that.
- 1:13:54Speaker 4: One and the total is low for a reason if
- 1:13:57Speaker 4: it's seven and a. Half but there's not a lot
- 1:13:59Speaker 4: of leeway there given what you, have all these numbers look,
- 1:14:02Speaker 4: like and the fact THAT boz could potentially be shaky

- 1:15:52Speaker 2: All what's? Up all, right we're back.
- 1:16:01Speaker 4: Getting some good traction on the show this. Morning by the,
- 1:16:04Speaker 4: way MAYBE i need to yell at my viewers. More all,
- 1:16:07Speaker 4: Right colorado And Saint. Louis this is a pretty ugly series.
- 1:16:11Speaker 2: Between two teams that are not going anywhere in my.
- 1:16:13Speaker 2: Opinion Saint.
- 1:16:15Speaker 4: Louis, oh but we're only fifteen games back in the. Division, no,
- 1:16:19Speaker 4: yeah good luck trying to get a wild card in THE.
- 1:16:21Speaker 4: Nl Saint louis did just win a series against The.
- 1:16:24Speaker 4: Yankees they're returning home from the. Road they do have
- 1:16:27Speaker 4: a day, Off i'm pretty. Sure but it's a bad.
- 1:16:30Speaker 4: SPOT i think it's a letdown spot potentially For Saint
- 1:16:32Speaker 4: louis after beating The yankees two out of three and
- 1:16:34Speaker 4: returning home from the, road going To toronto and The
- 1:16:37Speaker 4: yankees And colorado an easy team to overlook as, Well
- 1:16:41Speaker 4: SO i think in a distraction spot in the return
- 1:16:43Speaker 4: home like, that plus playing a bad, OPPONENT i don't
- 1:16:46Speaker 4: think it's a very good spot For Saint. Louis, COLORADO
- 1:16:49Speaker 4: i believe also had yesterday off and they're starting a road,
- 1:16:53Speaker 4: trip which might be good because they just got swept
- 1:16:55Speaker 4: at home By Tampa. Bay they're going out on the
- 1:16:57Speaker 4: road now should be more of a positive spot for,
- 1:17:00Speaker 4: them just forget about what happened at home going on the,
- 1:17:02Speaker 4: road although their offense might take a dip here because
- 1:17:05Speaker 4: they're going from very hit or from the Courts field
- 1:17:08Speaker 4: to very pitcher friendly Bush stadium or whatever the hell
- 1:17:12Speaker 4: it's called. Now so both bullpens are, rested BUT i
- 1:17:16Speaker 4: still would not trust either. Bullpens Saint louis is the
- 1:17:18Speaker 4: better one at twenty, Second colorado twenty.
- 1:17:21Speaker 2: Seventh still don't like either one, though even if they are.
- 1:17:25Speaker 4: Rested colorado has been the better offense at fifth thoough
- 1:17:27Speaker 4: LIKE i, said they might not hit as well in this.
- 1:17:29Speaker 4: Stadium Saint louis has been pretty weak offensively though at twenty,
- 1:17:34Speaker 4: fifth and they got rid of some of their guys
- 1:17:36Speaker 4: at the trade. Deadline colorado's Got Ryan feltner on the.
- 1:17:40Speaker 4: Mound i'm not sure THAT i really want to back
- 1:17:42Speaker 4: him in order.
- 1:17:43Speaker 2: To Fade Saint.
- 1:17:44Speaker 4: Louis it would be really about the spot if you're
- 1:17:46Speaker 4: gonna do. It feltner five point seventy five. V one
- 1:17:49Speaker 4: point four to six whip not very good, because of
- 1:17:51Speaker 4: Course colorado cannot attract good. Pitching As i've been, Saying
- 1:17:55Speaker 4: feldner is actually worse outside of Course, Field believe it or.
- 1:17:59Speaker 4: Not his roads are, worse which is. Crazy six era
- 1:18:03Speaker 4: on the road in a three to h nine opponent batting.
- 1:18:05Speaker 2: Average, yeah that's. Bad that also makes me not want
- 1:18:08Speaker 2: to come in and pack The rockies.
- 1:18:10Speaker 4: Here it's difficult to find a pitcher who you really
- 1:18:12Speaker 4: want to back with The rockies Man.
- 1:18:16Speaker 2: Feltner has.
- 1:18:17Speaker 4: Been he was okay in his last start Against Kansas
- 1:18:19Speaker 4: city in Course, field by the, way but he struggled
- 1:18:21Speaker 4: in the two starts prior to. That he's got kind
- 1:18:23Speaker 4: of a high hit rate. Here his walk rate isn't
- 1:18:26Speaker 4: really that. Great he's allowed a decent amount of home runs,
- 1:18:28Speaker 4: here though some of that is course field of, course
- 1:18:31Speaker 4: low strikeout rate kind.
- 1:18:32Speaker 2: OF i, mean none of this is really very.
- 1:18:34Speaker 4: Good, HOWEVER i do think he actually does pitch well
- 1:18:37Speaker 4: Against Saint, louis and they're not a very good, offense
- 1:18:39Speaker 4: so he might do okay here given that it's a
- 1:18:41Speaker 4: pitcher friendly park in a weak. Offense they have twenty
- 1:18:44Speaker 4: one at bats against him across five. Hitters one extra
- 1:18:47Speaker 4: base hit is a home run From mason, win but
- 1:18:50Speaker 4: they only hit one forty three Off feltner with a
- 1:18:52Speaker 4: four to twenty NINE ops six zero strikeout walk, ratio.
- 1:18:58Speaker 2: So feltner at least draws a decent matt.
- 1:19:00Speaker 4: Here Saint louis is going With Kyle lahy and he's
- 1:19:03Speaker 4: kind of turned a season.
- 1:19:03Speaker 2: Around he's been better.
- 1:19:05Speaker 4: Recently he's got a three point four to FOUR era,
- 1:19:07Speaker 4: now AND i was taking fun of him a lot
- 1:19:09Speaker 4: early in the, season although he's still not as good
- 1:19:11Speaker 4: as HIS zra makes him. Look his whip is one
- 1:19:13Speaker 4: point three to, three which is not. Excellent he's been
- 1:19:17Speaker 4: pretty good at home, though two point nine to five
- 1:19:20Speaker 4: home HE, ra and he's been pitching well. Recently LIKE i,
- 1:19:22Speaker 4: said he's going deeper into some of these. Outings he's
- 1:19:25Speaker 4: just getting absolutely no run support. Here but he's allowed
- 1:19:28Speaker 4: very few runs, recently two or fewer earned runs allowed
- 1:19:31Speaker 4: in whatever this, is seven straight. STARTS i think that's pretty.
- 1:19:35Speaker 4: Good one was a shortened, outing but the rest were
- 1:19:38Speaker 4: all like full. Starts, yeah he's he's actually pitching fairly
- 1:19:42Speaker 4: well right. Now his hit rate is still above one
- 1:19:44Speaker 4: per inning on the, season, though which isn't, great but
- 1:19:46Speaker 4: his walk rate's not really high at this. Point his
- 1:19:48Speaker 4: strikeout rate IS i would, say kind of. Mediocre doesn't
- 1:19:52Speaker 4: really strike guys, out but he is kind of pitching
- 1:19:54Speaker 4: effectively right. Now numbers against The rockies pretty, good seventeen at.
- 1:20:00Speaker 4: Bats they don't have too many at bats against, him
- 1:20:02Speaker 4: but they have seven, strikeouts one, walk one.
- 1:20:04Speaker 2: To eighteen average FOUR h two.
- 1:20:07Speaker 4: OPS i think first five under is the way to
- 1:20:11Speaker 4: play this game, man so Pitcher Friendly. Park both pictures
- 1:20:14Speaker 4: look like they actually match up. WELL i don't think
- 1:20:16Speaker 4: anybody's gonna want to back the under in a game
- 1:20:19Speaker 4: with these two starters on the, momb but the money
- 1:20:21Speaker 4: seems like it agrees with me on.
- 1:20:22Speaker 2: THIS i wouldn't include.
- 1:20:23Speaker 4: The bullpens, THOUGH i, mean the bullpens are just, awful
- 1:20:26Speaker 4: although at least they are. Rested full game totals eight
- 1:20:29Speaker 4: and a. Half but, YEAH i would go first five
- 1:20:30Speaker 4: under IF i was gonna play this. One sixty six
- 1:20:33Speaker 4: percent of tickets on the, over eighty four percent of
- 1:20:35Speaker 4: the cash on the, Under so the money seems to
- 1:20:38Speaker 4: be agreeing with me on the UNDER i, mean of,
- 1:20:39Speaker 4: COURSE i do have some concerns with, it Like feltner
- 1:20:42Speaker 4: sucks in general and sucks on the. Road and that's
- 1:20:45Speaker 4: also kind of WHY i wouldn't want to Back. Colorado
- 1:20:47Speaker 4: although the money is coming in On, colorado some of
- 1:20:50Speaker 4: it is the. Price, Again Saint louis has gone all
- 1:20:53Speaker 4: the way up into the minus one seventy range, here
- 1:20:55Speaker 4: eighty five percent of the tickets on. Them of, Course
- 1:20:57Speaker 4: colorado gets no respect in the. Mark they're The rodney
- 1:21:00Speaker 4: Danger field and they're hilarious in how bad they. Are,
- 1:21:05Speaker 4: sorry dirty. Sock sixty nine percent of the cash On.
- 1:21:09Speaker 2: Colorado.
- 1:21:09Speaker 4: There it kind of makes sense because again it's about
- 1:21:12Speaker 4: the situation being bad For Saint, louis and it's about
- 1:21:15Speaker 4: the price as. Well if you want to try to Back,
- 1:21:19Speaker 4: COLORADO i would only do it in the first five,
- 1:21:21Speaker 4: though and you'd be backing them to just keep it
- 1:21:23Speaker 4: close as an underdog, there you know WHAT i, mean
- 1:21:25Speaker 4: like a half run on the run line or. Whatever all, Right,
- 1:21:29Speaker 4: Houston San. Diego San diego's returning. Home but they were
- 1:21:32Speaker 4: only on a single series road trip In, arizona but
- 1:21:35Speaker 4: it was a big. Series they're like locked in a
- 1:21:38Speaker 4: battle With arizona right now in THE Nl, west battling
- 1:21:41Speaker 4: for a wildcard, spot basically because The dodgers are still
- 1:21:45Speaker 4: gonna run away with THE Nl. WEST i thought they
- 1:21:47Speaker 4: were gonna win this division by twenty. Games it looks
- 1:21:49Speaker 4: like they're not going to, now but they're still gonna
- 1:21:51Speaker 4: win the. Division San, diego, though, yeah that was a big.
- 1:21:55Speaker 4: Series so even though it's a only quick return home,
- 1:21:58Speaker 4: spot still kind of difficult because that was a big
- 1:22:01Speaker 4: series Against arizona and now they're facing A houston team
- 1:22:04Speaker 4: that's out of a league here an interleague, game not
- 1:22:08Speaker 4: out of their. League, Yeah houston is starting a road,
- 1:22:11Speaker 4: trip but it is A West coast, trip and you
- 1:22:13Speaker 4: KNOW i talk about these More Easter league teams going
- 1:22:15Speaker 4: Out west for a late night. Game sometimes it messes
- 1:22:18Speaker 4: with their biological, clock WHICH i don't, like because starting
- 1:22:21Speaker 4: a road trip normally is a, positive BUT i don't
- 1:22:23Speaker 4: really like the time zone. Shift Although houston getting out
- 1:22:27Speaker 4: of home might be good because they did just lose To,
- 1:22:29Speaker 4: toronto they also had yesterday. OFF i Believe San diego.
- 1:22:33Speaker 4: Didn't If i'm not, MISTAKEN i think Does houston have
- 1:22:36Speaker 4: a hold on Yes i'm Right.
- 1:22:39Speaker 2: Houston houston does have a rest advantage.
- 1:22:41Speaker 4: Here houston did not play, Yesterday San diego, did so
- 1:22:45Speaker 4: both teams are having to travel a little, bit But
- 1:22:47Speaker 4: houston has a rest advantage, here so that might help
- 1:22:50Speaker 4: them a little bit Because San diego normally has the better,
- 1:22:53Speaker 4: bullpen but they used four guys, yesterday Including Mason, miller
- 1:22:56Speaker 4: although he might be available agains today because he didn't
- 1:22:59Speaker 4: pitch for multiple days prior to. That houston's been pretty
- 1:23:03Speaker 4: good out of the bullpen, recently though they ranked, eleventh
- 1:23:05Speaker 4: San diego, eighth so there's not that much of a
- 1:23:08Speaker 4: gap between the two, bullpens and given the rest in,
- 1:23:10Speaker 4: AREA i think the bullpens are pretty. Close houston is
- 1:23:13Speaker 4: the better offense the rank. Six San diego is twenty
- 1:23:16Speaker 4: fourth th Though San diego has gotten a little bit better.
- 1:23:19Speaker 4: Recently this is a pitcher friendly ballpark, here though In San.
- 1:23:22Speaker 4: Diego houston's going With Ronelle, blanco who has bad looking
- 1:23:26Speaker 4: numbers so far this, year but it's in a small sample.
- 1:23:29Speaker 4: Size seven point three six era one point three whip
- 1:23:32Speaker 4: is not, great but it does indicate HIS era should
- 1:23:34Speaker 4: be lower than the HIDEOUS era that he does. Have
- 1:23:38Speaker 4: blanco is kind of interesting because he's not, young hasn't
- 1:23:42Speaker 4: pitched in the league that, much but he did actually
- 1:23:44Speaker 4: pitch well back in twenty twenty. Four he had a
- 1:23:46Speaker 4: really good season With, houston but it's kind of hard
- 1:23:49Speaker 4: to tell if that was a fluke or. Not last
- 1:23:51Speaker 4: year he did pitch pretty well For houston as. Well
- 1:23:53Speaker 4: then he got injured and he's kind of struggled so
- 1:23:55Speaker 4: far this. Year he's made three, starts hasn't really done
- 1:23:58Speaker 4: well in any of them so. Far he's hard to
- 1:24:00Speaker 4: trust right. Now his strikeout stuff is. There he's striking
- 1:24:03Speaker 4: out more than one guy per, inning so that's a
- 1:24:05Speaker 4: good sign that he does have his, stuff but he's been.
- 1:24:07Speaker 4: Wild that's been his main concern. Here he's walking too many.
- 1:24:10Speaker 4: People so if he stops doing, THAT i think he'll
- 1:24:13Speaker 4: turn it around a. Bit he does have a reasonably
- 1:24:16Speaker 4: low hit rate, here BUT i don't know if he's
- 1:24:17Speaker 4: fully trustworthy right. Now even though you are getting the
- 1:24:20Speaker 4: rest advantage With, houston if you do want to play them,
- 1:24:22Speaker 4: here he is getting To he's drawing a decent matchup
- 1:24:25Speaker 4: here Because San diego is not a great offense and
- 1:24:28Speaker 4: this is a pitcher friendly. Park San diego only has
- 1:24:31Speaker 4: three guys to have faced, him and they're zero for
- 1:24:33Speaker 4: nine offen with two strikeouts in one.
- 1:24:35Speaker 2: Walk so he's done well against them when he has faced,
- 1:24:38Speaker 2: them and he might do well.
- 1:24:40Speaker 4: Here San diego is gonna go With Robbie, ray who
- 1:24:43Speaker 4: they picked up from The giants at the trade. Deadline
- 1:24:47Speaker 4: Robbie ray going to a divisional rival. HERE i don't
- 1:24:51Speaker 4: really Think ray is really that good, man to be,
- 1:24:53Speaker 4: honest but he might be pumped up because he's pitching
- 1:24:56Speaker 4: for a team that's at least kind of in, Contention
- 1:24:58Speaker 4: so leaving The giants The padres might pump him up
- 1:25:01Speaker 4: a little. Bit and one good thing is that he
- 1:25:03Speaker 4: did pitch well at home when he was on The,
- 1:25:05Speaker 4: giants which i'll show you in a. Minute the splits
- 1:25:08Speaker 4: going from a pitcher friendly park In San francisco to
- 1:25:11Speaker 4: another picture of friendly park.
- 1:25:12Speaker 2: In San diego should be okay for, him you.
- 1:25:15Speaker 4: Know and he's it's a park that he's familiar with
- 1:25:17Speaker 4: pitching in because it's in the, division so that might.
- 1:25:19Speaker 2: Help him out a little.
- 1:25:20Speaker 4: Bit his overall numbers are not too bad, here three
- 1:25:23Speaker 4: point EIGHTY r one point two nine whip does indicate
- 1:25:26Speaker 4: his the ra should be higher than that.
- 1:25:27Speaker 2: Though but LIKE i, said he pitched well at.
- 1:25:29Speaker 4: Home With San francisco two point two two home he
- 1:25:32Speaker 4: are able with a one ninety two opponent batting, Average
- 1:25:35Speaker 4: so if he can he can continue Doing if he
- 1:25:37Speaker 4: can continue doing that here In San, diego he might
- 1:25:40Speaker 4: be able to keep that up well. Obviously uh, yeah
- 1:25:45Speaker 4: that's a redundant, statement you know WHAT i, mean he
- 1:25:48Speaker 4: might be able to do.
- 1:25:49Speaker 2: That, uh he just.
- 1:25:50Speaker 4: Pitched his last start was actually In San, diego so that's.
- 1:25:53Speaker 4: HILETER i hope he just stayed. THERE i hope he
- 1:25:56Speaker 4: just took some time, off just hung out around In San.
- 1:25:59Speaker 2: DIEGO i don't, know but he literally just pitched.
- 1:26:02Speaker 4: In San diego Against San diego and his last start
- 1:26:05Speaker 4: with The, giants and he did well in that, Start
- 1:26:07Speaker 4: so that's a decent. Sign he has a pretty low
- 1:26:10Speaker 4: hit rate, here but his walk rate is too. High
- 1:26:12Speaker 4: the walks have been the issue with. Him his strike
- 1:26:14Speaker 4: out rate is just kind of, mediocre but he's got
- 1:26:17Speaker 4: to fix the walk. Issue that's the one thing that's
- 1:26:20Speaker 4: really holding him. Back he'll be going up Against houston,
- 1:26:23Speaker 4: here which is a pretty good, offense better than The
- 1:26:26Speaker 4: San diego offense he just, faced which is now backing.
- 1:26:29Speaker 4: Him he's not been good Against. Houston he has fifty
- 1:26:32Speaker 4: four at bats against. Him only six hitters have faced him.
- 1:26:35Speaker 4: Though eight to six strike out walk ratio is not.
- 1:26:38Speaker 4: Good five home runs allowed is not. Good three point
- 1:26:40Speaker 4: fifteen average, allowed one thy sixty nine oh.
- 1:26:43Speaker 2: Ps none of that is. GOOD i THINK i gotta
- 1:26:46Speaker 2: Lean houston. Here.
- 1:26:47Speaker 4: Man it looks like they have the better pitching match up,
- 1:26:50Speaker 4: here and they might be a little bit under the
- 1:26:51Speaker 4: radar for that. Reason houston's got the rest advantage here
- 1:26:54Speaker 4: In San, diego is returning at least from a quick road,
- 1:26:57Speaker 4: trip and it was a big series for. Them the
- 1:26:59Speaker 4: money's indicating On San, diego BUT i don't really see.
- 1:27:02Speaker 4: It fifty eight percent of the tickets On San.
- 1:27:04Speaker 2: Diego sixty six percent of the.
- 1:27:06Speaker 4: Cash they're at about minus one seventeen. Here they've dropped
- 1:27:11Speaker 4: a little bit since their opener in the minus one,
- 1:27:13Speaker 4: twenty so it looks like some of the money initially
- 1:27:15Speaker 4: did come in On.
- 1:27:15Speaker 2: HOUSTON i think that's WHAT i would.
- 1:27:17Speaker 4: Do and maybe you're okay to back the bullpen here,
- 1:27:19Speaker 4: too because they do have the rest At, bullpen so
- 1:27:22Speaker 4: it might be a situation where you can get away
- 1:27:24Speaker 4: with going Against San diego's. Bullpen, there you could go
- 1:27:27Speaker 4: first five With houston. Two if you wanted to just
- 1:27:29Speaker 4: focus on the starting pitching, matchup maybe that's still the
- 1:27:32Speaker 4: better approach because you'll Get San diego early in the
- 1:27:35Speaker 4: game and they might be struggling with the return home
- 1:27:38Speaker 4: a little.
- 1:27:38Speaker 2: Bit BUT i still don't really Love.
- 1:27:41Speaker 4: Houston you, know obviously it's not on my, car but
- 1:27:43Speaker 4: YOU i, MEAN i already gave you the negatives With,
- 1:27:45Speaker 4: houston like the travel out west is not necessarily, great
- 1:27:48Speaker 4: And blanco just has struggled so.
- 1:27:50Speaker 2: Far so do what you want with all. That dodgers At, Arizona,
- 1:27:54Speaker 2: dodgers they got to turn something around. Here.
- 1:27:57Speaker 4: Man they don't Want arizona to get too close to.
- 1:27:59Speaker 4: Them this might be the time where The dodgers say
- 1:28:01Speaker 4: enough is. Enough you, Know arizona's in second place right,
- 1:28:05Speaker 4: now behind them in this. Division this might be the
- 1:28:07Speaker 4: spot where The dodgers come out and actually win and
- 1:28:11Speaker 4: stop their.
- 1:28:11Speaker 2: Opponent D.
- 1:28:13Speaker 4: Backs they're not going to Overlook la, obviously and they're
- 1:28:15Speaker 4: staying at. Home but the D backs did play. Yesterday
- 1:28:18Speaker 4: they played a tough series Against San. Diego The dodgers
- 1:28:21Speaker 4: have a rest. Advantage The dodgers didn't play. Yesterday dodgers
- 1:28:24Speaker 4: are coming in From, chicago, though so they are having
- 1:28:26Speaker 4: to travel From, chicago but or having to travel across
- 1:28:31Speaker 4: a couple of time, ZONES i should, say or at one,
- 1:28:34Speaker 4: time SO i don't know what the fuck time zone
- 1:28:36Speaker 4: Is arizona even IN i have no.
- 1:28:37Speaker 2: Idea but The dodgers have lost six games in a
- 1:28:40Speaker 2: row to The Red sox and The.
- 1:28:42Speaker 4: Cubs although those are two teams that are playing well right,
- 1:28:44Speaker 4: now they're probably both.
- 1:28:46Speaker 2: Better teams Than arizona.
- 1:28:48Speaker 4: Is arizona did have to use some of their bullpen,
- 1:28:51Speaker 4: yesterday so they might be a little bit of a disadvantage.
- 1:28:53Speaker 2: There they use three guys out of the.
- 1:28:55Speaker 4: Bullpen dodgers bullpen has been struggling, recently so they got
- 1:28:58Speaker 4: to fix whatever's going on with. Them they're ranked tenth right,
- 1:29:01Speaker 4: now not the greatest bullpen for The. Dodgers diamondbacks are,
- 1:29:05Speaker 4: seventh but they still have a worse the ra than
- 1:29:07Speaker 4: The dodgers and they're, unrested so The dodgers may still
- 1:29:09Speaker 4: have a bullpen advantage. Here dodgers is still number one in.
- 1:29:12Speaker 4: Offense they obviously have a big offensive. Edgend they're good
- 1:29:15Speaker 4: on the road as. Well, Offensively arizona's twenty, third which
- 1:29:19Speaker 4: is a lot worse Than La LA's going With Roki
- 1:29:22Speaker 4: sasaki here though he's been pitching fairly well, recently so
- 1:29:25Speaker 4: he's kind of gotten back into a groove here and
- 1:29:28Speaker 4: maybe he's finally doing, it, man and you're finally figuring
- 1:29:33Speaker 4: out how to be a. Starter he's got a four
- 1:29:35Speaker 4: point six to four Y arra one point three. WHIP
- 1:29:37Speaker 4: i know those are not great. Numbers he's been still
- 1:29:40Speaker 4: worse on the road four point eight to One Roady,
- 1:29:43Speaker 4: ara but he's been getting better and LIKE i, said
- 1:29:45Speaker 4: recently he's been pitching a bit. Better The dodgers have
- 1:29:47Speaker 4: won his last five, stars so that's not a bad.
- 1:29:49Speaker 4: Sign he's definitely been pitching. Better he's got a reasonably
- 1:29:53Speaker 4: low hit rate here is walk grade's still a little bit,
- 1:29:55Speaker 4: high but not too. Bad his strike out rate is fairly,
- 1:29:58Speaker 4: high so he strikes out more than one guy per,
- 1:29:59Speaker 4: in which is not battle. Though some of this was
- 1:30:02Speaker 4: bullpen work as, well although when he was working out
- 1:30:05Speaker 4: of the bullpen he was mostly throwing a lot of
- 1:30:07Speaker 4: innings still out of the. Bullpen the major concern with
- 1:30:11Speaker 4: him really is actually the home. Runs he's allowed too
- 1:30:13Speaker 4: many home. Runs even though he's not really a huge flyball,
- 1:30:17Speaker 4: pitcher he's somewhat of a flyball pitcher and maybe have
- 1:30:19Speaker 4: to be a little bit concerned about that In Arizona.
- 1:30:22Speaker 4: Stadium But sasaki has been good Against arizona so. Far
- 1:30:25Speaker 4: they have fifteen at bats against. Them of, those, yes
- 1:30:28Speaker 4: that does mean that now that they've seen, him maybe
- 1:30:29Speaker 4: they'll hit him, better but they only have a one
- 1:30:31Speaker 4: thirty three average against him six thirty five ops two
- 1:30:34Speaker 4: to two strike a walk.
- 1:30:36Speaker 2: Ratio, Sasaki, yeah.
- 1:30:38Speaker 4: He might do well, here and he's going up Against
- 1:30:40Speaker 4: Meryl kelly For. Arizona, kelly it looks like his career
- 1:30:45Speaker 4: might be.
- 1:30:45Speaker 2: Ending. Man this season has not gone well for. HIM
- 1:30:48Speaker 2: i thought he was gonna turn it, around and it
- 1:30:49Speaker 2: looked like he was doing, that but maybe not the.
- 1:30:53Speaker 4: CASE a five point zero FOUR, era one point four
- 1:30:55Speaker 4: to nine whip not. Good he's been really bad at
- 1:30:58Speaker 4: home six point three to Three Homie. Ira he failed
- 1:31:02Speaker 4: to get out of that ending the fifth inning last,
- 1:31:04Speaker 4: time BUT i tried to back the under in the
- 1:31:06Speaker 4: first five in his last game Against, cleveland and he
- 1:31:09Speaker 4: unraveled in the fifth, inning blew it for, us and
- 1:31:11Speaker 4: then they The unders still hitting the full. Games that
- 1:31:15Speaker 4: really really pissed me. Off, Kelly, yeah had some walk issues,
- 1:31:19Speaker 4: there didn't go well though he was pitching reasonably well
- 1:31:23Speaker 4: leading into. That, man which is part of the reason
- 1:31:25Speaker 4: WHY i backed, him is he had a really good
- 1:31:26Speaker 4: month Of, july so he was actually in good. Form
- 1:31:29Speaker 4: maybe he's fallen out of for. Me and he has
- 1:31:31Speaker 4: kind of a high hit rate on the, season which isn't.
- 1:31:33Speaker 4: Good he's a lot a lot of home runs to
- 1:31:35Speaker 4: his walk rate also isn't really that. Good his strike
- 1:31:37Speaker 4: up rate is, low so there really isn't much to like. Here,
- 1:31:40Speaker 4: overall none of these numbers are, Good so MAYBE i
- 1:31:44Speaker 4: shouldn't have fully backed him in that. ONE i don't, know,
- 1:31:47Speaker 4: man and he's going up against a tough lineup. Here
- 1:31:49Speaker 4: The dodgers are Not. Cleveland The dodgers have Hit kelly pretty.
- 1:31:54Speaker 4: Well they have one hundred and seventy seven at bats.
- 1:31:55Speaker 4: Against they're very familiar with him because he's been On arizona.
- 1:31:58Speaker 2: For most of his.
- 1:31:59Speaker 4: Career thirty two to twenty one strike out walk ratio
- 1:32:02Speaker 4: against it that is a really bad ratio to eighty
- 1:32:05Speaker 4: two batting average allowed eight to seventy eight.
- 1:32:07Speaker 2: Ops none of those numbers are.
- 1:32:09Speaker 4: Good SO i think if you're gonna play this, GAME
- 1:32:12Speaker 4: i think you gotta find some way of back in
- 1:32:14Speaker 4: The dodgers. HERE i think they're gonna bounce, back but they're,
- 1:32:16Speaker 4: public and they have a really high price tag on
- 1:32:19Speaker 4: them at minus one seventy basically, here which is pretty
- 1:32:22Speaker 4: difficult to actually back that, with you, Know sasaki being their.
- 1:32:27Speaker 2: Starter eighty nine percent.
- 1:32:28Speaker 4: Of tickets and cash on The dodgers makes it pretty
- 1:32:31Speaker 4: difficult to. Do and Maybe sasak is a bit of
- 1:32:33Speaker 4: a wild card here, Still SO i guess what you
- 1:32:36Speaker 4: could do is maybe play The dodgers team total over
- 1:32:39Speaker 4: just to find a way to play The dodgers to
- 1:32:42Speaker 4: bounce back in some, way but just play them to
- 1:32:45Speaker 4: to unload On Merril kelly and then This arizona bullpen
- 1:32:49Speaker 4: that's not really rested here and not really that. Good
- 1:32:51Speaker 4: that might be WHAT i would, do although you're probably
- 1:32:53Speaker 4: gonna be asking The dodgers to score at least six
- 1:32:56Speaker 4: in this game if you do, That but they are
- 1:32:57Speaker 4: a better road offense as, well so they're certainly capable
- 1:33:01Speaker 4: of getting it done in that, one all, Right so
- 1:33:03Speaker 4: that would be my recommendation.
- 1:33:04Speaker 2: There APPLE tv has this two game event.
- 1:33:08Speaker 4: Here the games are gonna Overlap Baltimore texas And Tampa.
- 1:33:12Speaker 4: Seattle my guess Is Tampa seattle is probably gonna get
- 1:33:14Speaker 4: the bigger viewing audience here since it's two teams that
- 1:33:18Speaker 4: are in contention.
- 1:33:20Speaker 2: Here seattle just had another hideous loss To.
- 1:33:23Speaker 4: DETROIT i, mean this is getting. Ridiculous eleven to, Nothing
- 1:33:27Speaker 4: what the? Hell what is going on With seattle? Man
- 1:33:30Speaker 4: two miserable shutout losses To detroit at? Home This detroit,
- 1:33:34Speaker 4: team LIKE i, said that sold at the trade, deadline
- 1:33:37Speaker 4: but they're still trying to win.
- 1:33:38Speaker 2: Games this could be.
- 1:33:39Speaker 4: A bounced back spot For, seattle though they're staying at
- 1:33:41Speaker 4: home off just a horrendous looking, loss and they need
- 1:33:44Speaker 4: to get some wins fast because they're the only way
- 1:33:48Speaker 4: they're gonna make the playoffs is by winning their division
- 1:33:50Speaker 4: at this, point and they got to start turning something.
- 1:33:52Speaker 2: Around as far as that's Concertn.
- 1:33:54Speaker 4: Tampa bay is certainly gonna make the playoffs at the
- 1:33:57Speaker 4: very least they'll be a wild. Card but they also
- 1:33:59Speaker 4: have a pretty nice lead in The Al east right,
- 1:34:01Speaker 4: Now yankees have been losing some games. Recently The Red
- 1:34:04Speaker 4: sox are climbing up the standings, obviously But Tampa bay
- 1:34:07Speaker 4: is hanging on in that, division which kind of surprises.
- 1:34:10Speaker 4: ME i still kind of think The yankees are gonna
- 1:34:12Speaker 4: wind up winning the division. Somehow But Tampa, bay they're
- 1:34:16Speaker 4: starting a road trip, HERE i, Think, no my. Mistake
- 1:34:18Speaker 4: they're in the middle of a road, trip so that
- 1:34:20Speaker 4: actually makes it easier for. Them they're coming in From,
- 1:34:23Speaker 4: colorado and they also didn't play. YESTERDAY i believe both
- 1:34:26Speaker 4: teams are off, Yes, No, No, seattle my. Mistake seattle played,
- 1:34:29Speaker 4: yesterday my. Mistake So tampa has a rest advantage, here
- 1:34:33Speaker 4: so that should Help Tampa bay out a little.
- 1:34:35Speaker 2: Bit, Yes seattle used three relief pitchers.
- 1:34:37Speaker 4: Yesterday SEATTLE i think is the better bullpen, though even
- 1:34:40Speaker 4: Though Tampa bay's ranked, Third seattle is ranked.
- 1:34:43Speaker 2: Sixteenth But seattle's era is.
- 1:34:45Speaker 4: BETTER i think they're the better, bullpen but it's, close
- 1:34:48Speaker 4: And tampa's the more rested bullpen, here so that it's
- 1:34:51Speaker 4: close between the two. Bullpens tampa's the better. Offense they're ranked,
- 1:34:55Speaker 4: ninth tie With. Detroit, Hilariously seattle's twenty. Eighth their offense
- 1:34:59Speaker 4: still hasn't figured it. Out WHEN i first looked at this, game,
- 1:35:02Speaker 4: THOUGH i thought was this is gonna be an under
- 1:35:05Speaker 4: on my, card but WHEN i looked into the, MATCHUP
- 1:35:07Speaker 4: i wasn't able to do. It but looking at this starting,
- 1:35:09Speaker 4: pitching this really looks like an under game to, me
- 1:35:11Speaker 4: even though it looks like it should be a bounce
- 1:35:13Speaker 4: back For seattle as. Well when you look at the numbers,
- 1:35:16Speaker 4: here they're both off the table from.
- 1:35:18Speaker 2: Me Drew raspison is pitching For Tampa.
- 1:35:21Speaker 4: Bay he's been good two point nine to ONE era
- 1:35:24Speaker 4: point nine three whip really, good and he's not that
- 1:35:26Speaker 4: much worse on the road. Either three point oh seven
- 1:35:29Speaker 4: roadyrm plus this is a pitcher friendly park here In.
- 1:35:32Speaker 4: Seattle rasmussen has been really good recently, too no runs
- 1:35:36Speaker 4: allowed in each of his last two, starts two shutout,
- 1:35:39Speaker 4: wins or he didn't even get like any run. Support
- 1:35:41Speaker 4: it's still gotta win in both of. Them so he's
- 1:35:44Speaker 4: playing in some under games here. Too he's got a
- 1:35:47Speaker 4: low hit, rate low walk, rate a high strikeout rate.
- 1:35:50Speaker 2: Too rasmussen's good man just.
- 1:35:52Speaker 4: Across the, board and he's also good Against seattle for
- 1:35:56Speaker 4: the most. Part two twenty two average a lot seven
- 1:35:58Speaker 4: oh six. Ops maybe not, great but not. Horrible in
- 1:36:02Speaker 4: forty five at, bats twelve to one strike out walk
- 1:36:04Speaker 4: race yio is. Good so everything's still looking good for
- 1:36:07Speaker 4: that under until you look At Logan gilbert here For,
- 1:36:10Speaker 4: seattle even THOUGH i think he is generally. Good he's
- 1:36:13Speaker 4: got a three point four to SIX era point nine
- 1:36:15Speaker 4: to nine. Whip he struggled at home this year four
- 1:36:18Speaker 4: point one to two home y, area but if you
- 1:36:19Speaker 4: look at his overall numbers at, home it's been, fluky
- 1:36:23Speaker 4: big time.
- 1:36:23Speaker 2: Fluky it's been the home run. Ball he's allowed sixteen
- 1:36:26Speaker 2: of the seventeen home runs he's allowed at home in
- 1:36:29Speaker 2: This mariner, stadium which is not even a home run
- 1:36:31Speaker 2: conduce to.
- 1:36:32Speaker 4: Stadium it makes no. Sense but he's completely turned it
- 1:36:36Speaker 4: around if you look at what's. Happening ALTHOUGH i know
- 1:36:38Speaker 4: he allowed two home runs last time at, home but
- 1:36:40Speaker 4: he only allowed three runs Against, minnesota and he's really
- 1:36:43Speaker 4: had like five pretty good home starts in a, row
- 1:36:46Speaker 4: so he's pitching better at, home SO i think that
- 1:36:48Speaker 4: was a little bit unlucky for. Him he's got a
- 1:36:52Speaker 4: low hit ran on the, season low walk rate on the.
- 1:36:54Speaker 4: SEASON i, know the home runs a little bit of a. Concern,
- 1:36:57Speaker 4: still high strikeout rates, Still so these numbers do all
- 1:36:59Speaker 4: look pretty good across the.
- 1:37:01Speaker 2: Board. Here the problem is he's not good Against Tampa.
- 1:37:03Speaker 4: Bay and that's WHERE i have to put an end
- 1:37:06Speaker 4: to all this talk about maybe wanting to Play seattle
- 1:37:09Speaker 4: or an under. HERE i just can't do it because
- 1:37:11Speaker 4: he's got fifty four at bats Against tampa and they've
- 1:37:14Speaker 4: had the upper hand against. Him they have a two
- 1:37:15Speaker 4: ninety six average at seven to eighty two ops against,
- 1:37:18Speaker 4: them eleven to five strike on walk.
- 1:37:20Speaker 2: Ratio So i'm gonna.
- 1:37:21Speaker 4: Leave this game. ALONE i would still lean towards an
- 1:37:24Speaker 4: under in this. Game it still looks like an under to.
- 1:37:27Speaker 4: Me money seemingly kind of disagreeing though the total is really.
- 1:37:31Speaker 4: Low it's at, seven and AGAIN i always say it's
- 1:37:34Speaker 4: low for a. REASON i think give two good enough boltpens,
- 1:37:37Speaker 4: here two good enough, starters that it should be a
- 1:37:40Speaker 4: low scoring. Game sixty three percent of, tickets fifty nine
- 1:37:43Speaker 4: percent of the cash on the under them do it
- 1:37:46Speaker 4: that when you, Want BUT i still think the under
- 1:37:48Speaker 4: might be the best approach. Here the money is coming
- 1:37:50Speaker 4: in On, seattle seventy five percent of tickets On tampa
- 1:37:53Speaker 4: sixty eight percent of the cash On. Seattle AND i
- 1:37:55Speaker 4: think the public is going to, say, Well Tampa bay
- 1:37:57Speaker 4: is an underdog and they're the better record With rasmussen
- 1:38:01Speaker 4: on the, mount it looks, really really easy to Play
- 1:38:03Speaker 4: Tampa bay with like their best starter on the, mound
- 1:38:06Speaker 4: being an underdog and having the better. Record, yeah the
- 1:38:09Speaker 4: public is gonna be all over something like. That so
- 1:38:12Speaker 4: it looks way too easy to Play Tampa. Bay and you,
- 1:38:14Speaker 4: KNOW i don't like it when it looks too. Easy
- 1:38:16Speaker 4: more often than not that's not the, case and that's
- 1:38:19Speaker 4: part of the reason why the money's Playing.
- 1:38:20Speaker 2: Seattle but you just saw the matchup. Numbers the matchup
- 1:38:23Speaker 2: numbers just take it off the table for, me, Man i'm.
- 1:38:25Speaker 2: Sorry And Tampa.
- 1:38:26Speaker 4: Bay does have a rest advantage to LIKE i, said
- 1:38:28Speaker 4: so that also kind of Hurts seattle a little.
- 1:38:32Speaker 2: Bit. HERE i can't do.
- 1:38:33Speaker 4: It, YEAH i think IF i was gonna play the
- 1:38:35Speaker 4: game at, all i'd probably take the. Under but, Yeah
- 1:38:37Speaker 4: i'm not gonna be able to do. It detroit At
- 1:38:40Speaker 4: San francisco is the last game, here and this is
- 1:38:42Speaker 4: gonna Be Tyler molly starting For San francisco and instead
- 1:38:45Speaker 4: he's pitching for The, braves And San francisco might be
- 1:38:48Speaker 4: happy about. That by the end of the, Day San
- 1:38:50Speaker 4: francisco is not playing well right now that they sold
- 1:38:53Speaker 4: off of the trade. Deadline their offense has kind of
- 1:38:56Speaker 4: falling back into their role bad, ways and they're returning
- 1:38:58Speaker 4: over from a road. Trip they went To San diego And,
- 1:39:01Speaker 4: texas so they're having to travel back to The pacific
- 1:39:03Speaker 4: coast time and play a late game that's not. Good
- 1:39:07Speaker 4: So San francisco's at numerous disadvantages. Here why AM i
- 1:39:11Speaker 4: not Playing detroit in this game is the. Question it
- 1:39:14Speaker 4: looks LIKE i should be On detroit. Here San francisco
- 1:39:17Speaker 4: returning over from a road, trip bad negative. Spot they're
- 1:39:20Speaker 4: a bad, team WHICH i think makes the spot even.
- 1:39:22Speaker 4: Worse detroit looks like they're still playing motivated baseball And
- 1:39:26Speaker 4: San francisco might not, Be so that's another indicator Towards.
- 1:39:28Speaker 4: Detroit San francisco's having to travel across time zones here
- 1:39:32Speaker 4: and go back to The west and adjust to a
- 1:39:34Speaker 4: late night time, here which is also going to be
- 1:39:36Speaker 4: a disadvantage Because detroit is already in that time. Zone
- 1:39:41Speaker 4: detroit was just In sacramento and then they went up To.
- 1:39:44Speaker 4: Seattle now they're coming back down to The Bay area
- 1:39:47Speaker 4: And detroit's won five of their last six, games so
- 1:39:49Speaker 4: they're still playing. Well so, YEAH i Think detroit makes
- 1:39:53Speaker 4: a lot of sense to look at in this game
- 1:39:55Speaker 4: for a whole bunch of, reasons already adjusted to the
- 1:39:58Speaker 4: time zone as. Well detroit did play yesterday, though so
- 1:40:03Speaker 4: that's one. Thing San francisco does have a rest advantage,
- 1:40:05Speaker 4: Here so that is one thing that takes away from
- 1:40:07Speaker 4: it a little bit is That detroit is not rested
- 1:40:10Speaker 4: In San. Francisco Is detroit on these two relief pitchers yesterday.
- 1:40:14Speaker 4: Though so they're bullpens in decent, shape AND i think
- 1:40:16Speaker 4: they're probably the better. Bullpen they're ranked. Seventeenth San francisco's
- 1:40:20Speaker 4: kind of struggled out of the. Bullpen they're twenty fourth
- 1:40:23Speaker 4: and got rid Of Eric miller AND i think a
- 1:40:25Speaker 4: couple of their other relief arms as. WELL i don't
- 1:40:30Speaker 4: buy That San francisco's twelfth in, offense tied With minnesota
- 1:40:33Speaker 4: and The. YANKEES i again think they're gonna have another
- 1:40:34Speaker 4: drop off. Here their, numbers in my, opinion are being
- 1:40:38Speaker 4: skewed by some of the huge offensive outputs they've had
- 1:40:41Speaker 4: in some of these road, games and that's not what
- 1:40:44Speaker 4: this game. Is and they're going up against a Decent
- 1:40:46Speaker 4: detroit pitching staff. Here detroit is ranked ninth offensively by the,
- 1:40:51Speaker 4: way so they've been better offensively anyway Than San. Francisco
- 1:40:56Speaker 4: detroit's going With Kidner montero, here and he's been pretty
- 1:40:59Speaker 4: good for.
- 1:41:00Speaker 2: Them he's back in their starting.
- 1:41:01Speaker 4: Rotation he's been in their starting rotation quite a bit
- 1:41:04Speaker 4: and also doing like long relief. Stuff but he's been
- 1:41:07Speaker 4: good either. Way three point one seventy RA a one.
- 1:41:10Speaker 4: Whip he's been really good on the road two point
- 1:41:12Speaker 4: one to ONE roadyra one seven opponent batting, average that's all.
- 1:41:16Speaker 4: Nice pitched pretty well on the road last time at
- 1:41:18Speaker 4: The A's, stadium which is a good. Sign he shut
- 1:41:21Speaker 4: them out for six. Innings pitching in that stadium and
- 1:41:23Speaker 4: doing well, there that's a good. Sign he bounced back
- 1:41:25Speaker 4: from a bad start the prior start Against, baltimore so
- 1:41:29Speaker 4: he seems to be kind of regaining form. Here you
- 1:41:32Speaker 4: have to be, aware, though the bunch of his numbers
- 1:41:36Speaker 4: are coming out of the, bullpen Though jose what's up,
- 1:41:38Speaker 4: Man thanks for hanging out getting a. Lot do we
- 1:41:41Speaker 4: get a lot Of we're doing a lot of numbers this.
- 1:41:43Speaker 4: Morning what's going on?
- 1:41:44Speaker 2: Here? Man, oh thank, you thank you for the?
- 1:41:47Speaker 4: Jewels sir uh showing me the family jewels. AGAIN i
- 1:41:51Speaker 4: need to come up with a better joke than.
- 1:41:52Speaker 2: That. Man Maybe i'll start us singing a jose will
- 1:41:56Speaker 2: say mass.
- 1:41:57Speaker 4: So we'll start singing some. Jewel that's her, RIGHT i
- 1:42:01Speaker 4: can't sing as. Well JEWELS a seriously a talented.
- 1:42:04Speaker 2: Singer.
- 1:42:04Speaker 4: Man if people were alive in the nineties for, that
- 1:42:08Speaker 4: she's still. ALIVE i just don't know what she's doing.
- 1:42:11Speaker 4: Now Keeter montero, overall he's got a low hit rate,
- 1:42:14Speaker 4: here low walk.
- 1:42:15Speaker 2: Rate his strikeout rate's not good.
- 1:42:17Speaker 4: Though he doesn't strike anybody, out but he does keep
- 1:42:19Speaker 4: guys off the. Bases he probably should do okay in
- 1:42:23Speaker 4: a picture friendly park against The San francisco team that
- 1:42:26Speaker 4: isn't good offensively and hasn't really seen.
- 1:42:28Speaker 2: Him they've six at bats against him across three.
- 1:42:31Speaker 4: Batters Only Jung Ho lee has a hit against, him a,
- 1:42:35Speaker 4: single one, strikeout no. Walks so, YEAH i Like detroit.
- 1:42:39Speaker 4: HERE i don't know What i'm, thinking why AM i
- 1:42:40Speaker 4: not Playing detroit? Here San francisco has not decided on a.
- 1:42:44Speaker 4: START i have no clue who it's gonna. Be detroit
- 1:42:47Speaker 4: does look really easy to play though in really public.
- 1:42:50Speaker 4: Here ninety one percent of, tickets ninety five percent of
- 1:42:52Speaker 4: the cash on. Them oh, yeah then there are. Again
- 1:42:54Speaker 4: it is the rest disadvantage in. There all, right, Fine
- 1:42:58Speaker 4: i'll leave this one off my, card BUT i Like
- 1:43:00Speaker 4: detroit in this. ONE i think if we're gonna play,
- 1:43:02Speaker 4: it just Play detroit on the money line either at
- 1:43:05Speaker 4: about minus one thirty or so. Here so that's gonna
- 1:43:09Speaker 4: do it for the baseball slate, Here, no, Sir i'm.
- 1:43:14Speaker 2: Not i'd already be down. There i'd have to be
- 1:43:16Speaker 2: down there already IF i was gonna do.
- 1:43:17Speaker 4: That everybody is upset That i'm not doing, It but
- 1:43:21Speaker 4: we got birthdays suff from my mom going on this,
- 1:43:24Speaker 4: weekend so, No i'm not gonna be. There only two,
- 1:43:30Speaker 4: Likes yeah that's. Right listen To Dirty, sock. Everybody, yeah
- 1:43:34Speaker 4: hit the. Likes i'm Hoping i'm giving you guys winners.
- 1:43:36Speaker 2: Today. MAN i know we're kind of treading water right,
- 1:43:38Speaker 2: now but you, Know toronto should have been a winter.
- 1:43:40Speaker 4: Yesterday that was fucking BULLSHIT. WNBA i, mean we got
- 1:43:45Speaker 4: to talk about. It it makes money on the, show
- 1:43:47Speaker 4: so that's why we do IT, wnba even though it's.
- 1:43:50Speaker 2: A crap, league crap.
- 1:43:52Speaker 4: SPORT i don't have anything in THE wnba, tonight THOUGH
- 1:43:55Speaker 4: i was right about all three games last. Night by
- 1:43:57Speaker 4: the way outright win FOR la Over. Minnesota it was
- 1:44:00Speaker 4: a crazy, result BUT i did SAY i LIKED la
- 1:44:02Speaker 4: plus the points in that, One so if people played
- 1:44:05Speaker 4: that and put some on the money, line they did
- 1:44:06Speaker 4: pretty well. There connecticut Against phoenix is the first game.
- 1:44:11Speaker 4: Up connecticut probably the worst team in the, league and
- 1:44:14Speaker 4: they're in a really bad. Spot they're returning home from
- 1:44:16Speaker 4: a road trip where it's not as long as it
- 1:44:18Speaker 4: looks like because The All star break was in, here
- 1:44:20Speaker 4: but they're still returning home from a week long road
- 1:44:23Speaker 4: trip more than a. Week they've been away Since july twenty.
- 1:44:25Speaker 4: Eighth they went To, Washington, Chicago dallas lost all three
- 1:44:29Speaker 4: games on the road trip return, home and they debatably
- 1:44:32Speaker 4: have a bigger game next Against atlanta because it's An
- 1:44:35Speaker 4: Eastern conference, game and Then New york after. That SO
- 1:44:38Speaker 4: i don't think it's a good spot For connecticut return home.
- 1:44:41Speaker 4: SPOT i would kind of be looking towards fading them.
- 1:44:44Speaker 2: Here they did actually Beat phoenix.
- 1:44:45Speaker 4: Once on the road before The All star break and
- 1:44:49Speaker 4: then immediately lost to them after, that WHICH i THINK
- 1:44:51Speaker 4: i actually gave Out phoenix as a play in that second,
- 1:44:54Speaker 4: game maybe as a zigzag.
- 1:44:55Speaker 2: SPOT i can't, Remember SO i don't. KNOW i don't
- 1:44:59Speaker 2: know If phoenix is gonna overlook them or not.
- 1:45:01Speaker 4: Here the other thing to be aware of Is Britney
- 1:45:03Speaker 4: griner might come back For connecticut in this, Game so
- 1:45:06Speaker 4: if he slash she comes back in this, game it
- 1:45:10Speaker 4: might be reverse injured player theory spot Because grinder is
- 1:45:14Speaker 4: still one of the better players On, connecticut so that
- 1:45:17Speaker 4: might affect the line a little bit and you'll get
- 1:45:19Speaker 4: less value On connecticut if you're gonna be looking at
- 1:45:21Speaker 4: it that. Way SO i kind of don't Like connecticut.
- 1:45:23Speaker 4: HERE i kind of Leave. Phoenix phoenix is coming off
- 1:45:27Speaker 4: a loss To, atlanta so they probably want to bounce
- 1:45:29Speaker 4: back off.
- 1:45:29Speaker 2: That it wasn't a close.
- 1:45:30Speaker 4: Game it was a big game Against, atlanta pretty Good atlanta.
- 1:45:34Speaker 4: Team but, again they're probably gonna want to get a
- 1:45:37Speaker 4: game here on this road. Trip they're one and one
- 1:45:40Speaker 4: on the road trip right, now they're probably gonna want
- 1:45:41Speaker 4: to take the lead on the road. Trip for lack
- 1:45:45Speaker 4: of a better way of phrasing that here, Whoa i'm
- 1:45:47Speaker 4: getting woozy, here man.
- 1:45:48Speaker 2: Light Edit oh, Shit oh, crap hold, on, man need
- 1:45:55Speaker 2: some water.
- 1:45:56Speaker 4: HERE i don't know what's going on vertigo or. SOMETHING
- 1:45:58Speaker 4: i think it's my. Siege meds are just, LIKE i don't,
- 1:46:01Speaker 4: know doing something weird to me. Here, Anyway the money
- 1:46:05Speaker 4: does not Like phoenix at, all though they're public eighty
- 1:46:07Speaker 4: five percent of tickets on. Them phoenix does Have Kelsey plumb,
- 1:46:10Speaker 4: now so they kind of stacked their roster a little
- 1:46:14Speaker 4: bit with, her although they're probably not even gonna make the.
- 1:46:16Speaker 4: Playoffs BUT i do think they're a better team than
- 1:46:18Speaker 4: what they look like record. Wise that they have eighty
- 1:46:20Speaker 4: three percent of the cash on, them so they're a
- 1:46:22Speaker 4: public team with less money on, them laying like six
- 1:46:25Speaker 4: and a half. Here BUT i THINK i would still
- 1:46:27Speaker 4: lean towards laying the points With phoenix in that. One
- 1:46:29Speaker 4: there's no Way i'm actually gonna recommend doing, it, though
- 1:46:32Speaker 4: but that would be my lean. There atlanta is gonna
- 1:46:34Speaker 4: be At. Washington this would be an interesting. Game it's
- 1:46:37Speaker 4: a defensive battle in my opinion, here although it's not
- 1:46:39Speaker 4: the lowest total on the, board which is interesting because
- 1:46:42Speaker 4: both of these teams are known for good. Defense washington's
- 1:46:45Speaker 4: been playing. Well they've won five games in a row
- 1:46:47Speaker 4: and against some pretty good teams in here, Too so
- 1:46:49Speaker 4: This washington team they're making a surge. Here, man then
- 1:46:53Speaker 4: they might make the playoffs. Here they just Beat dallas,
- 1:46:56Speaker 4: twice pretty good, there But washington does have kind of
- 1:46:58Speaker 4: an advantage stylistically Over dallas Because dallas doesn't play any
- 1:47:02Speaker 4: defense In washington. Does atlanta's gonna be kind of a
- 1:47:05Speaker 4: different animal. Here Although washington did actually Beat atlanta here
- 1:47:09Speaker 4: at home back On july, second so they're certainly capable
- 1:47:12Speaker 4: of doing that and playing a tough game here Against.
- 1:47:15Speaker 4: Atlanta they're coming off a couple of tough games here
- 1:47:19Speaker 4: as well, though so maybe a little bit of a
- 1:47:20Speaker 4: difficult spot for. Them atlanta's coming up Beating phoenix that
- 1:47:24Speaker 4: was an easy. Win atlanta doesn't have a big game
- 1:47:28Speaker 4: up next, either so it's a weird single game road
- 1:47:31Speaker 4: trip For. Atlanta they're going up To, washington so kind
- 1:47:33Speaker 4: of one of those weird one off travel spots.
- 1:47:35Speaker 2: Here i'm not convinced that they're really gonna Overlook.
- 1:47:38Speaker 4: Washington here, though might be a defensive, battle but the
- 1:47:41Speaker 4: money is actually coming in on the over in this,
- 1:47:43Speaker 4: one which seems a little odd to me Because i'm
- 1:47:45Speaker 4: expecting again defense throughout this. Game the totals around minus
- 1:47:49Speaker 4: one seventy or excuse, me the total is around one
- 1:47:52Speaker 4: seventy and a. Half atlanta has gone up to about
- 1:47:55Speaker 4: a five and a half point favorite from a three
- 1:47:56Speaker 4: and a half point, favorite so that usually is kind
- 1:47:59Speaker 4: of a signal there's some injury situation going on. HERE
- 1:48:02Speaker 4: i don't, know BECAUSE i don't really know these players well,
- 1:48:04Speaker 4: enough but it doesn't really look like there's anything going
- 1:48:06Speaker 4: on in the injury, reports so kind of weird that
- 1:48:10Speaker 4: the line moved up two points On atlanta. Here washington
- 1:48:13Speaker 4: looks like they're getting the money although they look like
- 1:48:15Speaker 4: they're public ninety one percent of tickets ninety three percent
- 1:48:18Speaker 4: of the cash On, washington although the public doesn't play
- 1:48:22Speaker 4: THE wnba, heavily so that might kind of be a
- 1:48:25Speaker 4: signal that the real money might actually be On. WASHINGTON
- 1:48:28Speaker 4: i don't, know, man and getting a lot of points
- 1:48:30Speaker 4: in what's WHAT i think is going to be a defensive.
- 1:48:32Speaker 2: Battle here seems like maybe the way to. Look but
- 1:48:36Speaker 2: in this, GAME i don't.
- 1:48:37Speaker 4: KNOW i think the spot might be a little bit
- 1:48:39Speaker 4: better For atlanta because they're coming out of an easier game
- 1:48:41Speaker 4: And washington's having to play like a third straight big
- 1:48:44Speaker 4: game in a, row you, Know SO i don't, know
- 1:48:46Speaker 4: maybe slightly In atlanta there actually towards laying the, points
- 1:48:49Speaker 4: and then maybe you're actually fading the public there, TOO
- 1:48:51Speaker 4: i don't.
- 1:48:52Speaker 2: Know and then the last game Is Golden State.
- 1:48:54Speaker 4: Dallas a pretty Big West coast or excuse, me a
- 1:48:57Speaker 4: pretty Big Western conference matchup. Here dallas is returning home From,
- 1:49:02Speaker 4: washington but it was a single game road, trip kind of.
- 1:49:05Speaker 4: Weird but at least they're not returning on from a road,
- 1:49:07Speaker 4: trip like a long road, trip BECAUSE i think that
- 1:49:10Speaker 4: would be a negative spot, obviously where you have stuff
- 1:49:12Speaker 4: that's built up at home that you need to. Do
- 1:49:15Speaker 4: they might be in a bounce back spot, though because
- 1:49:17Speaker 4: it was kind of an ugly loss To. Washington they're
- 1:49:19Speaker 4: not gonna Overlook Golden, state although they do have a
- 1:49:21Speaker 4: big game next Against, minnesota the best team in the.
- 1:49:24Speaker 4: League SO i guess you could argue maybe the look
- 1:49:27Speaker 4: ahead to, that BUT i don't think, so Because Golden
- 1:49:29Speaker 4: state's a really strong team as, well AND i don't
- 1:49:31Speaker 4: think they're gonna Overlook Golden. State they played them once
- 1:49:34Speaker 4: this year In Golden, state it looks, like and they
- 1:49:36Speaker 4: lost that. Game Golden state is definitely good at. Home
- 1:49:41Speaker 4: as far as like the road versus, Home Golden state's
- 1:49:44Speaker 4: not as good on the, road so that's one. Thing
- 1:49:47Speaker 4: they're more vulnerable on the road at the very. Least
- 1:49:49Speaker 4: so Though dallas isn't actually that good of a home
- 1:49:51Speaker 4: Team Golden state as far as their, situation they're coming
- 1:49:55Speaker 4: in off of Beating toronto twice and starting a road,
- 1:49:58Speaker 4: TRIP i believe. SO i think it's a positive spot for.
- 1:50:00Speaker 4: Them toronto is not a good. Team Golden state's got
- 1:50:03Speaker 4: some momentum here starting a road, trip two game road.
- 1:50:06Speaker 4: Trip even though the next game is ON, espn it's AGAINST.
- 1:50:09Speaker 4: LA i think this is the bigger game Against dallas
- 1:50:11Speaker 4: Because dallas has been an up and coming. Team they're
- 1:50:14Speaker 4: a better team IN la right, now and in this
- 1:50:17Speaker 4: Game Golden. State the one thing they really have going
- 1:50:19Speaker 4: for them is they're the better. Defense and this is
- 1:50:21Speaker 4: a really low total for A dallas game at one sixty.
- 1:50:24Speaker 4: Three actually it's down to one sixty one and a.
- 1:50:26Speaker 4: Half that's a really Low dallas total to do Because
- 1:50:30Speaker 4: dallas they like to play, fast they have a good,
- 1:50:32Speaker 4: offense and they don't really play well on. Defense Golden
- 1:50:35Speaker 4: state is a better all around team and they play
- 1:50:38Speaker 4: kind of a strange offensive style and they play really well.
- 1:50:41Speaker 4: Defensively so the low total with the money coming in
- 1:50:45Speaker 4: in the, UNDER i think that is correlated With Golden,
- 1:50:48Speaker 4: state which is kind of weird that the money's actually
- 1:50:50Speaker 4: coming in On. Dallas like those are counter signals to,
- 1:50:53Speaker 4: Me LIKE i Think Golden state in the under are
- 1:50:55Speaker 4: definitely correlated here because, again better defense if you like,
- 1:50:59Speaker 4: that that team that tends to signal like that tends
- 1:51:03Speaker 4: to be correlated to a low scoring game obviously if
- 1:51:05Speaker 4: you like the better. Deepfense sixty percent of the tickets
- 1:51:08Speaker 4: On Golden state though eighty five percent of the cash On.
- 1:51:10Speaker 2: DALLAS i THINK i Lean Golden state.
- 1:51:12Speaker 4: THOUGH i think they're the better team and the better,
- 1:51:15Speaker 4: deepfense and that's usually WHAT i. Like and you're getting
- 1:51:17Speaker 4: like one one and a half points, there so you, know,
- 1:51:19Speaker 4: me if the spot isn't really anything. SIGNIFICANT i like
- 1:51:22Speaker 4: the better deepfense getting points, usually so that's the WAY
- 1:51:26Speaker 4: i would lean In the under again seems to kind
- 1:51:27Speaker 4: of back that, Up So i'm kind of surprised that
- 1:51:29Speaker 4: the market read on the side and the totals seem
- 1:51:33Speaker 4: to be just totally conflicting with each other. There and
- 1:51:35Speaker 4: that's gonna do. It that's the show for. Today let's
- 1:51:38Speaker 4: get some wins. Today in, baseball, man we have The
- 1:51:40Speaker 4: triple playing.
- 1:51:41Speaker 2: Baseball we have The mets money, line Which i'm starting
- 1:51:44Speaker 2: to really not.
- 1:51:45Speaker 4: Like come, On Zach, thornton just bail me, out. Baby
- 1:51:48Speaker 4: the other GAMES i like. Better we're gonna be on
- 1:51:50Speaker 4: The yankees money, line. UNFORTUNATELY i think we have a
- 1:51:53Speaker 4: lot of advantages in that. One and THEN i also
- 1:51:55Speaker 4: really like the spot For cleveland as, well so we're
- 1:51:57Speaker 4: gonna be on The Cleveland indians on the money line as.
- 1:52:00Speaker 4: Well those are the three players. Today they're all full
- 1:52:02Speaker 4: game money lines this. Time to keep it, simple AND
- 1:52:05Speaker 4: i did say that in The mets, One i'm saying
- 1:52:07Speaker 4: to not pick a starting pitcher For pittsburgh just in
- 1:52:10Speaker 4: Case In blodzinsky isn't the first guy out for. Them
- 1:52:13Speaker 4: but for all the rest of the pitchers that we
- 1:52:15Speaker 4: have involved in those, GAMES i would, say pick those,
- 1:52:17Speaker 4: starters must. Start that's gonna do. It learn it tone On,

- 1:52:57Speaker 4: that high scoring.
- 1:52:58Speaker 2: Though that was.
- 1:52:58Speaker 4: Crazy but, yeah both Quarterbacks beck And Haines king both
- 1:53:03Speaker 4: looked pretty good in that.
- 1:53:04Speaker 2: Game so it's pre.
- 1:53:06Speaker 4: Season it doesn't matter that, much and some of it
