- 0:05Speaker 1: All system's going clear the left of.
- 0:36Speaker 2: What is going on.
- 0:37Speaker 3: Everybody happy Friday. I hope everybody had a great week.
- 0:41Speaker 3: I'm excited to talk some baseball in for our man
- 0:44Speaker 3: Ham talking with Matt. Twelve games slates and not much
- 0:47Speaker 3: time to waste, seven oh five eastern start time and
- 0:51Speaker 3: no weather to worry about. Lineups will be trickling in
- 0:54Speaker 3: of course. We will share sabers in to start for
- 0:57Speaker 3: the pitching segment and go to the stone you can
- 1:00Speaker 3: find under the MLB tab after that to break down
- 1:03Speaker 3: each stacks.
- 1:04Speaker 2: Twelve games is a lot, no weather is nice.
- 1:07Speaker 3: Pitching though not great by any means, So throw it
- 1:10Speaker 3: to Matt first before we dive into the slate.
- 1:11Speaker 2: How we're doing. Matt's excited talks some ball with you.
- 1:14Speaker 1: Yeah, man, feels good to get back on here with you.
- 1:16Speaker 1: Have been a minute. Last time we talked was like
- 1:19Speaker 1: middle of slash end of the NBA season, So a
- 1:22Speaker 1: lot has changed. My Cavs have embarrassed themselves again in
- 1:26Speaker 1: the playoffs. Talks of Giannis continue, so we'll see what
- 1:30Speaker 1: happens there. But yeah, deep in MLB streets, luckily or
- 1:33Speaker 1: good for me that the guards are awesome and they're
- 1:36Speaker 1: playing probably the worst division in baseball, so excited for
- 1:39Speaker 1: the summer of baseball in Cleveland. I think we got
- 1:41Speaker 1: a good young squad as far as the night's slate goes,
- 1:44Speaker 1: I think you said it best fun slate. Pitching leaves
- 1:49Speaker 1: a lot to be desired. That's probably putting it mildly.
- 1:53Speaker 1: A bunch of good offenses though, like quite a few
- 1:56Speaker 1: teams on like normal medium sized would be top overall
- 2:01Speaker 1: stacks type of slate. So should be fun breaking it
- 2:04Speaker 1: down with you brother.
- 2:05Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, Yeah, we talked about your calvs. I remember
- 2:09Speaker 3: they never find the they never get the job done.
- 2:12Speaker 3: When it's all said and done, there's war noo though
- 2:13Speaker 3: it isn't. Yeah, they're not good enough to compete. We'll
- 2:18Speaker 3: see about the Knicks that it's gonna be a lot
- 2:20Speaker 3: of fun with them, a lot of rest against a
- 2:22Speaker 3: Wemby or SGA. What a series that's been. I'm excited
- 2:26Speaker 3: for Game seven. Definitely excited. DFS side of things. Shout

- 3:22Speaker 3: hi to people before we break down this slate.
- 3:24Speaker 2: What's going on?
- 3:25Speaker 1: Heart?
- 3:25Speaker 3: The first one in here wins a lot. Ricky Coach

- 3:32Speaker 3: see you as well.
- 3:33Speaker 2: Been a little bit. It's excited.
- 3:34Speaker 3: A lot of familiar faces worn in here. Pierre Hit
- 3:37Speaker 3: the Benjamin. Things you love to see Anthony William hope
- 3:41Speaker 3: everybody out there doing great again. Like budd All, we
- 3:43Speaker 3: ask twelve games and the like I said, the first
- 3:46Speaker 3: thing that stands out sorting my salary for pitching sixteen
- 3:49Speaker 3: point one point five projected points is Zach Wheeler projected
- 3:52Speaker 3: for the averages shiping Nation and Sabersim George Kirby. We
- 3:56Speaker 3: haven't leading the slate at eight point a k, but
- 3:59Speaker 3: as you can see, none of these guys are really
- 4:02Speaker 3: going like with no pitcher projected over seventeen on a
- 4:05Speaker 3: twelve game slate, that is unusual, and I think that
- 4:08Speaker 3: just really opens the slate up in terms of what
- 4:11Speaker 3: you can do, just to quick looking at hitting for
- 4:15Speaker 3: team stacks San Francisco right here in Coors Field the
- 4:19Speaker 3: highest implied runs, and then the Yankees. So I actually
- 4:22Speaker 3: think this is one of those slates where like San
- 4:24Speaker 3: fran and the Yankees is so much more popular and
- 4:27Speaker 3: maybe than like any other pitcher, you can play like
- 4:29Speaker 3: the two chalkiest pitchers or whatever. If you're playing a
- 4:32Speaker 3: different stack not named those two, that's a way to
- 4:35Speaker 3: get different. So I'll let you any broad slate if
- 4:38Speaker 3: you want to talk. But then pitching eight K Justin
- 4:41Speaker 3: Robleski all the way up to Zach Wheeler ten to three.
- 4:43Speaker 2: How do you see it?
- 4:44Speaker 1: That's an interesting take on it, Like the perspective, I've
- 4:47Speaker 1: never really had that, like the two so rare. It's rare,
- 4:51Speaker 1: and I don't disagree with you either way. I think
- 4:54Speaker 1: it'll be similar, like we're not gonna see normal ownership
- 4:57Speaker 1: where like the highest own or the two highest doone
- 5:00Speaker 1: pictures are much higher own than anything else on the slate.
- 5:04Speaker 1: I think you're right. I do think like as always,
- 5:08Speaker 1: ownership will probably get a little bit more concentrated at pitcher,
- 5:13Speaker 1: like with Kirby who you mentioned who projects you know
- 5:17Speaker 1: at the top or near the top of no matter
- 5:18Speaker 1: where you look at home, obviously you like him. But
- 5:21Speaker 1: to your point, like Arizona's been awesome lately, could tell
- 5:27Speaker 1: Marte has been the best hitter in baseball over the
- 5:28Speaker 1: past week or so, Like this offense obviously we know
- 5:32Speaker 1: is good, and Kirby it's not like he's been that
- 5:37Speaker 1: elite recently here this year, he's been good and we
- 5:40Speaker 1: know who he is and I like him here, but
- 5:42Speaker 1: it's more like a war of attrition. Why I like
- 5:44Speaker 1: him because I don't really love anyone else, So that
- 5:47Speaker 1: kind of goes into your point. I think that you know,
- 5:50Speaker 1: eight k out, there are a bunch of good arms
- 5:52Speaker 1: on this slate. The problem is they're not in great spots.
- 5:55Speaker 1: The guys you want to use are a little bit
- 5:57Speaker 1: priced up. Like Wheeler is awesome, one of the best
- 5:59Speaker 1: pictures in baseball, but you're paying full freight for him
- 6:03Speaker 1: in the toughest spot in baseball in LA against the Dodgers.
- 6:06Speaker 1: So I get using Wheeler on merit alone, even if
- 6:09Speaker 1: he doesn't project great, because he's that good and you know,
- 6:14Speaker 1: good pitching. If he's on his best today and has
- 6:16Speaker 1: his best stuff, he'll be able to get through any lineup,
- 6:19Speaker 1: because that's usually how baseball works. But I think his
- 6:22Speaker 1: floor is a lot lower than normal Meyer, you know,
- 6:27Speaker 1: big sticker sock. Seeing him at ninety eight hundred, he's
- 6:30Speaker 1: been phenomenal though, so I understand playing him Peralta and
- 6:34Speaker 1: Kirby to me look like the top two arms when
- 6:38Speaker 1: like combining floor and ceiling. But so like your point
- 6:43Speaker 1: by about why the Giants and Yankees are going to
- 6:46Speaker 1: get more ownership is I don't feel strongly about that,
- 6:49Speaker 1: and I don't think the field does either, And there
- 6:51Speaker 1: are enough other options between Meyer and Wheeler and Gore
- 6:55Speaker 1: and Imanaga that I think you're right. I don't think
- 6:59Speaker 1: ownership on any gets too crazy. My favorite too expensive
- 7:02Speaker 1: guys I think are Kirby and Peralta. But again I
- 7:06Speaker 1: do not feel strongly about it. How do you see it?
- 7:09Speaker 2: I don't feel too strong either.
- 7:10Speaker 3: I think Meyer is my favorite at nine point a
- 7:13Speaker 3: k Wheelers just the matchup is so tough against the Dodgers.
- 7:16Speaker 3: That's something I hardly go to with being the highest
- 7:18Speaker 3: price on the slate. But if I'm playing twenty teams,
- 7:21Speaker 3: though by no means am I axing Wheeler, And to
- 7:25Speaker 3: be honest, I'm almost exing no pitchers, Like I'm almost
- 7:28Speaker 3: focusing on my bets. Even if you if you just
- 7:30Speaker 3: think the Giants and the Yankees, which will be the
- 7:32Speaker 3: too highest own, if you're like, all right, I'm just
- 7:34Speaker 3: gonna go all in on them. You could have a
- 7:36Speaker 3: pitching pool of ten and mix and match a bunch
- 7:39Speaker 3: of different pitchers and just jam the Giants and the Yankees,
- 7:43Speaker 3: which I don't hate that idea honestly, like this, but
- 7:45Speaker 3: I don't have a great lean on pitcher. The Mets
- 7:49Speaker 3: have not been very good. Meyer's been great the sticker
- 7:51Speaker 3: shock like seventeen percent. If that's what he is, he's
- 7:54Speaker 3: my favorite pitcher to go on the board. Kirby feels
- 7:58Speaker 3: on a slate where no one's for rejected over seventeen. Like,
- 8:01Speaker 3: I feel almost the safest that he gets me seventeen points,
- 8:04Speaker 3: But I don't think.
- 8:05Speaker 1: He's getting me down too.
- 8:07Speaker 2: Yeah, I do agree with that.
- 8:09Speaker 3: I don't think he's getting me like twenty eight points though,
- 8:12Speaker 3: which I don't think it's the slate you need it
- 8:14Speaker 3: on most some twelve game slates you do. Would I
- 8:17Speaker 3: be surprised if two pitchers today go above twenty five? No,
- 8:20Speaker 3: but he's safe. But yeah, with the ownership, like you're
- 8:23Speaker 3: talking about a little scared there. So I think I'd
- 8:26Speaker 3: rather just go Freddy and hope it's a pitching duel
- 8:30Speaker 3: with him and Myer. But I do think he's gonna
- 8:32Speaker 3: be a little bit lower owned will Freddie than George
- 8:35Speaker 3: Kirby in that range. But kenzy Goer, he has upside
- 8:37Speaker 3: but definitely has some downside as well, And that's really
- 8:41Speaker 3: what I'm looking at in.
- 8:42Speaker 2: The upper range.
- 8:43Speaker 3: Let's go to the bottom range quick and then we
- 8:45Speaker 3: can kind of combine him. But Carlos Rodin's the main one.
- 8:48Speaker 3: We got to talk about him and George Kirby probably
- 8:52Speaker 3: the Chalk pairing to allow you to get some Giants
- 8:54Speaker 3: and Yankees or at least spend ups. But I do
- 8:57Speaker 3: think Rodan gets a decent bit of ownership. It's a
- 9:00Speaker 3: little scary because I think some of these A's bats
- 9:02Speaker 3: are interesting too. I mean, what Rodin do we get
- 9:05Speaker 3: is the biggest question. But any take on Rodon at
- 9:08Speaker 3: pretty high ownership and then other value you're looking at.
- 9:11Speaker 1: No, I think the price team seems too cheap on
- 9:13Speaker 1: a slate where we don't love the pitching options.
- 9:17Speaker 4: But I'm with you, like I don't feel warm and
- 9:20Speaker 4: fuzzy about it, and I think that you could definitely
- 9:22Speaker 4: use a couple as bats against him, whether it's just
- 9:25Speaker 4: because of the matchup or leverage or both.
- 9:28Speaker 1: I don't think ownership is going to be crazy on
- 9:30Speaker 1: any of these guys. I wouldn't be surprised if Rodon
- 9:34Speaker 1: and Kirby ends up being like the Chalky pairing. Aw
- 9:36Speaker 1: So it wouldn't be surprised if like Peralta is in
- 9:39Speaker 1: that mix. Even Meyer, considering how good he's been, so yeah,
- 9:43Speaker 1: Rodin looks like the best option under a K for sure.
- 9:47Speaker 1: He's just too cheap when you look at like the
- 9:48Speaker 1: guys around him. He's clearly the guy you want to
- 9:52Speaker 1: play there, and I have no arguments with it. I mean,
- 9:55Speaker 1: we're looking at a slate without good pitcher projections. He's
- 10:00Speaker 1: a known commodity, even though he hasn't pitched much this year,
- 10:03Speaker 1: and he's cheap, so makes sense to me, even though,
- 10:06Speaker 1: like I said, like you said, we like a couple
- 10:09Speaker 1: of bats against him. You made like a comment in
- 10:12Speaker 1: passing about you know, would you be surprised if two
- 10:15Speaker 1: pitchers score twenty five plus on this slate? And I've
- 10:18Speaker 1: been thinking about this, like even before we got on
- 10:20Speaker 1: the show, just because like I wonder what the line
- 10:23Speaker 1: of the betting line would be, honestly, of how many
- 10:26Speaker 1: pitchers score over I was thinking like twenty two. But
- 10:29Speaker 1: let's say twenty five here on a slate with no
- 10:33Speaker 1: project no pitcher projecting over seventeen, as you've mentioned, But
- 10:36Speaker 1: it's baseball and there are twenty four pitchers going tonight,
- 10:40Speaker 1: Like we know that weird stuff, so it's not even
- 10:43Speaker 1: weird stuff. Random stuff happens in every game every night
- 10:46Speaker 1: in baseball. So I wonder what that line would be, Like,
- 10:48Speaker 1: how many pitchers do we expect to go over let's
- 10:52Speaker 1: say twenty tonight. I'm gonna say probably three or four.
- 10:56Speaker 3: Over twenty. Yeah, I think three and a half would
- 11:01Speaker 3: be a solid line. I'd said it there twenty five
- 11:04Speaker 3: to your original thing. If one pitchers get twenty five plus, yeah, one,
- 11:08Speaker 3: or like a percentage that two pictures on this late do,
- 11:11Speaker 3: I would say it's probably like twenty five percent, And
- 11:14Speaker 3: that might be a little generous. Like I think if
- 11:17Speaker 3: two pitchers or more get twenty five plus, it'd be
- 11:20Speaker 3: like twenty twenty five percent, But I do think three
- 11:23Speaker 3: or four maybe get twenty plus. Is there other guys
- 11:26Speaker 3: in this lower range? And I guess I guess four
- 11:28Speaker 3: pitchers could score over twenty. But let's say it's these
- 11:31Speaker 3: top four nine k and above and you get like
- 11:34Speaker 3: a seven k R and gets you sixteen. It doesn't
- 11:37Speaker 3: mean that those that twenty is on the winner because
- 11:39Speaker 3: of the pricing that we play. But do you think
- 11:42Speaker 3: there's guys trying to look like a Nick Martinez against it? Okay, sorry,
- 11:48Speaker 3: go ahead, No, I was just a couple other names
- 11:50Speaker 3: that I was just trying to, like Zach Allen has
- 11:52Speaker 3: an okay projection. Nick Martinez if you're really going low,
- 11:57Speaker 3: like Trevor Rodgers, is a full punt. Not sure we
- 11:59Speaker 3: exactly need it, but other arms that we can get
- 12:01Speaker 3: to on this slate that's in the lower tier.
- 12:04Speaker 1: Yeah, so there's three dogs. So Nick Martinez is interesting
- 12:08Speaker 1: just because it's the Angels and they're so bad against
- 12:10Speaker 1: right handed pitching. But I'm not buying it with Martinez
- 12:15Speaker 1: and like he's an average arm. I think you're just
- 12:18Speaker 1: playing the matchup there, which is okay to do on
- 12:20Speaker 1: this slate. But I think there are better options elsewhere,
- 12:23Speaker 1: cheaper options elsewhere. I should say. One is Severino direct
- 12:28Speaker 1: leverage against the Yankees. Shock, He's not a gas can,
- 12:32Speaker 1: Like people are going to the Yankees because it's the
- 12:35Speaker 1: Yankees in this ballpark and like Severino isn't great anymore
- 12:40Speaker 1: by any means, but he's not a gas can at all.
- 12:43Speaker 1: Like last start or the start before against the Angels,
- 12:46Speaker 1: who I just talked about, he was like the highest
- 12:47Speaker 1: old pitcher on the slate and he had ten k's.
- 12:51Speaker 1: I think, so, yeah, I think Severino is in play
- 12:54Speaker 1: for sure. And the other guy, which I don't think
- 12:57Speaker 1: you're gonna hear many people talk about today, that I
- 12:59Speaker 1: think is actually in play if nothing else, is Brian
- 13:03Speaker 1: Bao at fifty five hundred for a couple of reasons.
- 13:06Speaker 1: So you talked about just how bad the pitching projections
- 13:09Speaker 1: are today. So in that case, on one hand, you
- 13:13Speaker 1: could say why not just spend down and I would
- 13:16Speaker 1: understand that line of reasoning. Bail himself has been atrocious
- 13:20Speaker 1: this year, but he's been much better when following an opener.
- 13:25Speaker 1: And baseball is a weird game. There might not be
- 13:28Speaker 1: something to that, and maybe that's just outlier performances, but
- 13:31Speaker 1: there might actually be something to it. I know, last
- 13:35Speaker 1: start he followed an opener and was decent, not great.
- 13:38Speaker 1: The start before he did not follow an opener, I'm
- 13:41Speaker 1: pretty sure, and got shelled, And the two before that
- 13:43Speaker 1: he followed an opener and was really good, And every
- 13:46Speaker 1: start before that was awful because he started the game
- 13:50Speaker 1: or not because he started the game. He started the
- 13:52Speaker 1: game and then he was awful. So I think he's
- 13:54Speaker 1: interesting at a dirt cheap fifty five hundred dollars price tag.
- 13:58Speaker 3: Okay, I mean last time I don't know if this
- 14:01Speaker 3: was the last last time we were on the show,
- 14:02Speaker 3: but shows how long it's been Sandy a contra back
- 14:06Speaker 3: when he was like seven percent oh in a complete
- 14:08Speaker 3: game you threw oh.
- 14:09Speaker 1: Man sounds like way early on in the year.
- 14:12Speaker 3: Way early, like the first week or something. But I mean,
- 14:15Speaker 3: I'm not gonna I was chirping it. Not chirping it,
- 14:17Speaker 3: but a little bit. I wasn't necessarily on the same page.
- 14:20Speaker 3: So I'm biting my tongue to say anything about that
- 14:23Speaker 3: low and I'll let the people read the benefits.
- 14:26Speaker 2: He's also really cheap, so it's gonna be super low
- 14:29Speaker 2: on so taking it probably.
- 14:31Speaker 1: Stinks like he probably stinks tonight because he hasn't been good.
- 14:34Speaker 1: I don't mind the Guardian's lineup, but he's so cheap
- 14:36Speaker 1: on a sleep where we don't like pitching.
- 14:38Speaker 2: That's all it is.
- 14:39Speaker 1: And I think there might be something to him following
- 14:41Speaker 1: an opener. Now to that point, it's not like like
- 14:44Speaker 1: even last start. It's not like he was great following
- 14:46Speaker 1: an opener, but at that price, tag just worth a mention.
- 14:48Speaker 1: All I'm saying.
- 14:52Speaker 3: A couple things, any take on. So Warren Tyler's asking
- 14:56Speaker 3: about Stephen Kolik, and then we had William ask about
- 15:00Speaker 3: Crow and Melton, So do you have any takes on
- 15:03Speaker 3: those three?
- 15:04Speaker 1: I think my favorite of that bunch is Melton. I
- 15:07Speaker 1: think there's it's just the unknown there. I don't know
- 15:12Speaker 1: how much I want to be picking on the White
- 15:14Speaker 1: Sox offense right now. And you're paying for Melton, So
- 15:16Speaker 1: that's my big problem there. Crow, you're not paying for.
- 15:21Speaker 1: But man, Houston's been good and like they got your dog,
- 15:26Speaker 1: He's been the best hitter in baseball so far this year.
- 15:30Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't like, I'm not going out of
- 15:31Speaker 1: my way to pick on Houston, even though they are
- 15:34Speaker 1: very right handed heavy. Crow's in play. It's just because
- 15:36Speaker 1: there's the unknown with him, and he's cheap enough where
- 15:38Speaker 1: I think you could consider him. And then Colak, I'm
- 15:43Speaker 1: not really buying it coming off probably the best start
- 15:45Speaker 1: of his career. I know he was good to start
- 15:47Speaker 1: before that too. You know, maybe it's a flaw in
- 15:52Speaker 1: my game that I'm not buying with cole X selling,
- 15:54Speaker 1: but I'm not paying eighty four hundred for him coming
- 15:57Speaker 1: off again the complete nut performance that will probably ever have.
- 16:02Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, if I'm playing probably any three of
- 16:04Speaker 3: those guys, I'm probably just playing the giants, And like,
- 16:07Speaker 3: that's where I'm getting different, is one of those three
- 16:10Speaker 3: pitchers because they're all grading out as sub ten percent,
- 16:14Speaker 3: and the projections off of the top guys is not crazy.
- 16:16Speaker 3: Like if there was a slate to play a no
- 16:18Speaker 3: Namer or just a random three percent pitcher, I think
- 16:20Speaker 3: this is the slate to do it, since opportunity costs
- 16:23Speaker 3: is lower than we're seeing on most slates. I like
- 16:26Speaker 3: this ano call though, for the direct leverage in that
- 16:29Speaker 3: lower tier. And I'm in on Trevor Rodgers. That was
- 16:31Speaker 3: the last thing I was going to ask you about.
- 16:33Speaker 3: Lowenwolf talked about like his last year's numbers are absolutely insane.
- 16:38Speaker 3: I believe it was last year, two years. I think
- 16:40Speaker 3: it was last year versus I mean, it's been bad
- 16:43Speaker 3: this year, but we played daily Fantasy. So at what
- 16:47Speaker 3: is the six Yeah, six K flat. I think you
- 16:51Speaker 3: could do worse on this slate.
- 16:52Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. I mean I just talked about Brian
- 16:54Speaker 1: baos So whom Rogers you know, I'll say this, I
- 16:58Speaker 1: do think he's due for a little bit of positive
- 17:00Speaker 1: should like it is he's expected. Thera is not good,
- 17:05Speaker 1: like four and a half expected is not good, but
- 17:07Speaker 1: it's way better than his seven era, you know what
- 17:10Speaker 1: I'm saying, So like, yeah, some positive regressions.
- 17:13Speaker 2: Difference, huge difference.
- 17:14Speaker 1: So I don't love the spot for him, And personally
- 17:18Speaker 1: I think I'd rather play Bao where the field is
- 17:20Speaker 1: on Rogers. But I don't think the field is like
- 17:23Speaker 1: on Rogers enough where that would get me off him
- 17:26Speaker 1: or anything. I don't know, I get it. I just
- 17:30Speaker 1: don't know if I'm personally gonna be on it. But
- 17:32Speaker 1: to your other point before about how you would just
- 17:35Speaker 1: play the Giants like with any of those three guys,
- 17:37Speaker 1: the Meltons and the other two guys you asked me about,
- 17:40Speaker 1: I think that's totally valid on this late and I
- 17:42Speaker 1: think how you put it, like just loading up if
- 17:46Speaker 1: you think those offenses are just worth that much, and
- 17:49Speaker 1: then just rotating the pictures in that sense, I think
- 17:51Speaker 1: every picture on the slate is in play in tournaments.
- 17:55Speaker 3: One hundred percent, and I wouldn't necessarily do that because
- 17:59Speaker 3: I think you can. We've seen a lot of winning
- 18:01Speaker 3: lineups in baseball this year, especially with how top heavy
- 18:04Speaker 3: a lot of these tournaments are and how much variance
- 18:06Speaker 3: like you can get different at pitching and bats. It
- 18:09Speaker 3: was I think like Lucky Yesses last week or something
- 18:13Speaker 3: like he might have had a point five percent on
- 18:15Speaker 3: pitcher that got like seven, and every single stacks was
- 18:19Speaker 3: like what you're talking about, like sub five percent. So
- 18:22Speaker 3: this is one of the few sports like if you're
- 18:24Speaker 3: playing NBA and every single one of your guys is
- 18:27Speaker 3: under twenty percent on a seven games slate, you're just
- 18:29Speaker 3: you're donating. Essentially, you can have every single player be
- 18:33Speaker 3: under five percent owned pitchings and pitcher included on this
- 18:36Speaker 3: five or on this twelve game slate and still the
- 18:39Speaker 3: lineup like great out is plus ev or get to
- 18:42Speaker 3: the top. I'm not necessarily recommending that, but you don't
- 18:46Speaker 3: need to just because you get different at pitching. Don't
- 18:48Speaker 3: feel the need to just jam in chalk bats like
- 18:50Speaker 3: you can. You can definitely go to lower owned stacks.
- 18:54Speaker 1: Yep, I remember that exact sly too. I thought that
- 18:56Speaker 1: was a little bit wild. Yeah I did too, but
- 18:59Speaker 1: under g yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, god, I can't must
- 19:03Speaker 1: have been it might have been the White Sox because
- 19:05Speaker 1: they were uber expensive. I can't remember, but I definitely
- 19:07Speaker 1: noticed that when like reviewing it really low on stack,
- 19:12Speaker 1: really lowan pictures. Like the picture wasn't even good. I
- 19:16Speaker 1: can't remember that. Yeah, but like pitching on that slate
- 19:19Speaker 1: wasn't good in general. And yeah, man, like yeah, I
- 19:23Speaker 1: think that was a really really good point to bring up.
- 19:25Speaker 1: Thank you.
- 19:26Speaker 3: Yeah, I phones being a little slow now, so I'll
- 19:29Speaker 3: have to find it. But it was like direct leverage
- 19:31Speaker 3: off of de Gram maybe it was or some like
- 19:34Speaker 3: chalk picture that it got direct leverage off of.
- 19:36Speaker 1: It was actually it because it was the Gram against
- 19:39Speaker 1: the Angels.
- 19:40Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's what it was.
- 19:42Speaker 1: It was I can't remember who he started a pitcher,
- 19:44Speaker 1: but that was what a good call. And yeah, like
- 19:47Speaker 1: that's MLB for you, like expect the unexpected where it's
- 19:51Speaker 1: very difficult to project. So to that point, like if
- 19:56Speaker 1: you're gonna look at it like that anything's in play,
- 19:59Speaker 1: you know, we just down the best we can know.
- 20:01Speaker 3: Yeah, there you go, awesome stuff. We'll feel we do
- 20:04Speaker 3: our best to narrow it down. But that's why we
- 20:06Speaker 3: kind of want to preach like process and finding when
- 20:09Speaker 3: you're making multiple teams and just being uncomfortable portfolio building
- 20:14Speaker 3: a portfolio. You can if you build four teams like
- 20:17Speaker 3: three teams can be completely against that. That's why you
- 20:19Speaker 3: see bubbles sometimes, a lot of bubbles on the left
- 20:22Speaker 3: side missing cash. You have one bubble in the green.
- 20:24Speaker 3: It's all the way on the right with all the
- 20:26Speaker 3: money up top. Nowadays, that is all you're playing for.
- 20:29Speaker 3: So uh. To wrap up pitching, my favorite pitchers, it'd
- 20:33Speaker 3: be a lot bigger pitching pool than I usually would have,
- 20:35Speaker 3: but it would be Max Meyer, and then it would
- 20:38Speaker 3: be I think I'm gonna go McKenzie Gore and take
- 20:44Speaker 3: on the risk there. Meyer, Gore, Kirby, Parolta is how
- 20:49Speaker 3: I have it. But again I would my favorite down
- 20:52Speaker 3: below would be Trevor Rodgers, and I definitely would mix
- 20:54Speaker 3: him in. Bro Don's a scary one for me. If
- 20:57Speaker 3: he is going to be the second highest owned, which
- 20:59Speaker 3: I think he probably is. I'm a little worried about
- 21:01Speaker 3: that and have an interest in the a's top three
- 21:04Speaker 3: pitchers for you, before you go talk some bats.
- 21:06Speaker 1: I'll go Kirby one, I'll go Peralta two, I'll go
- 21:14Speaker 1: Meyer three. But man like, and this kind of touches
- 21:17Speaker 1: on what new ends asked a little bit ago, like
- 21:19Speaker 1: on a slate where pitching projections are so bunch together,
- 21:22Speaker 1: would I be more inclined to pay it for safety
- 21:24Speaker 1: because there's so many teams to choose from. Bats wise,
- 21:26Speaker 1: I think that's another way to skin the cat, for sure,
- 21:29Speaker 1: And usually that's how I play, because that's just how
- 21:32Speaker 1: I like to play. I don't know if that's the
- 21:36Speaker 1: way I'm gonna play tonight, or if that's the right
- 21:37Speaker 1: strategy in general. Obviously every splate is different. I only
- 21:40Speaker 1: say that because, like tonight, we might feel safer with
- 21:45Speaker 1: like Kirby and Peralta and Meyer, but like, I don't
- 21:50Speaker 1: feel like none of these guys are like you know,
- 21:54Speaker 1: I think it's baseball, like we just talked about with
- 21:57Speaker 1: the GRAM. I don't feel like amazing about any of them,
- 22:01Speaker 1: and they're all expensive and highly owned, so like, in
- 22:05Speaker 1: that sense kind of inclined to just like not play
- 22:09Speaker 1: any of them and play anyone else at the same
- 22:12Speaker 1: toke or on the same token. However, I don't like
- 22:14Speaker 1: really anyone else. So you got to play two pitchers,
- 22:17Speaker 1: and honestly, a guy that I think falls through the
- 22:20Speaker 1: cracks that I might be more interested in then the
- 22:22Speaker 1: field is Wheeler just because of his talent. Everything you
- 22:26Speaker 1: said is true he's way expensive and he's in such
- 22:29Speaker 1: an awful spot, but we don't like any pictures on
- 22:32Speaker 1: this slate, and he's not going to be as highly
- 22:34Speaker 1: owned as the other guys, and he's better than the
- 22:37Speaker 1: other guys, just in a tougher spot. So kind of
- 22:40Speaker 1: just like talking out loud about it, like selling myself.
- 22:43Speaker 1: But he's in play for me for sure.
- 22:46Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't argue that by any means. The most
- 22:50Speaker 3: expensive pitcher have a lot of money on this late though,
- 22:52Speaker 3: the best real life pitcher. It's just obviously a really
- 22:56Speaker 3: tough matchup. I think it's also a slate. I'm not
- 22:58Speaker 3: going to pull up our our tools over here. I'm
- 23:02Speaker 3: gonna keep them behind the paywall. But MLB Picture rankings definitely,
- 23:06Speaker 3: I think a good slate when it's really tough to
- 23:08Speaker 3: navigating a lot of close stuff. To see where our
- 23:10Speaker 3: picture rankings are at is important, and we will go
- 23:14Speaker 3: and share the stone right here so you can see
- 23:16Speaker 3: the picture rankings, hit A rankings, everything, what side they
- 23:20Speaker 3: bat from, the pricing, projections on fandel draftings, their ownership,
- 23:24Speaker 3: everything you need one stop shop on the stone, which
- 23:26Speaker 3: we are showing off now because we were about to
- 23:29Speaker 3: talk some bats, so appreciate again everyone hanging out Taco
- 23:33Speaker 3: misses the chandelier. Yeah that is long gone. I see
- 23:36Speaker 3: my man, Jake. Hope you're doing well. New ones that
- 23:39Speaker 3: Actually this was water, but yeah, you usually got the protein.
- 23:42Speaker 3: Always chugging lone wolf. I meant to answer this, I
- 23:44Speaker 3: am not staying up for the fights. Having a little
- 23:46Speaker 3: one in my life changes things. Back in the day,
- 23:49Speaker 3: I was always at the boys house one am, two am,
- 23:52Speaker 3: you name the start, I was up watching. But life
- 23:55Speaker 3: has changed a bit, so hopefully I have a sweat
- 23:57Speaker 3: when I wake up. All right, let's break down the
- 24:01Speaker 3: first game of the slate, the Baltimore Orioles and the
- 24:03Speaker 3: Toronto Blue Jays. Trevor Rodgers, Austin Voth on the mound.
- 24:08Speaker 3: Not too big of a run total on both sides,
- 24:10Speaker 3: which will lead to very low ownership on both sides.
- 24:14Speaker 3: So I'll throw it to you though, two people in
- 24:16Speaker 3: the pitcher rankings that are very low. So any interest
- 24:18Speaker 3: in bets on either side?
- 24:21Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I'm not interested in Baltimore. I'm not
- 24:24Speaker 1: interested in the Blue Jays pitching because it's I think
- 24:27Speaker 1: more of a bullpen game than anything else. Not really
- 24:29Speaker 1: interested in Baltimore. I am interested in Toronto, though against Rogers, who,
- 24:34Speaker 1: even though I think it's due for some positive aggression,
- 24:37Speaker 1: still hasn't been good. And again it's not like his
- 24:40Speaker 1: expected stuff is good. It's just better than it has been.
- 24:43Speaker 1: So I like this Toronto lineup. You've got McAdoo in there,
- 24:47Speaker 1: hitting six, who is raking in the minors. He's cheap.
- 24:51Speaker 1: They're gonna get no ownership. And this is gonna kind
- 24:54Speaker 1: of be a trend on this slate because I'm in
- 24:55Speaker 1: total agreement with you that outside of the Giants and Yankees,
- 25:00Speaker 1: like those two teams are going to generate and garner
- 25:02Speaker 1: so much ownership. And I tried to tell myself earlier
- 25:06Speaker 1: in the day, like when I first opened the slate,
- 25:07Speaker 1: that the Giants might not be that highly owned because
- 25:10Speaker 1: people don't love playing them, but they will be because
- 25:13Speaker 1: they're so cheap and they're in quarters. So it's the
- 25:15Speaker 1: Giants and Yankees and then everyone else. And I think
- 25:18Speaker 1: the Blue Jays are a good stack in that everyone
- 25:22Speaker 1: else group. I like their lineup today. They're cheat, they
- 25:24Speaker 1: have upside. I don't know if I'm personally gonna play
- 25:28Speaker 1: them because I'm not Max entering. If I were playing
- 25:30Speaker 1: one to fifty, though, i'd be over the field.
- 25:34Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't hate it at all. I would definitely
- 25:36Speaker 3: play some some Blue Jays as well. Are they my
- 25:38Speaker 3: favorite stack? No? But I do like guaranteed Nathan at bats.
- 25:43Speaker 3: You get a catcher in the nine hole to use
- 25:45Speaker 3: a wrap around that's pretty cheap to make things work.
- 25:48Speaker 3: I mainly would focus though, on one through six and
- 25:51Speaker 3: then nine. I don't love Straw, yeah orgo.
- 25:56Speaker 1: I will say about Panango though, like he's really good
- 26:01Speaker 1: or he's good. I don't want to say really good.
- 26:03Speaker 1: He's down there because it's left on left, so like,
- 26:05Speaker 1: I wouldn't play him as a one off, but if
- 26:07Speaker 1: I were stacking, I'd be fine with him personally. Straw though,
- 26:10Speaker 1: I just not playing at all, all.
- 26:12Speaker 2: Right, I like it. I like those little h the
- 26:14Speaker 2: tidbits there.
- 26:15Speaker 3: So yeah, pretty much everyone in play then except Straw
- 26:17Speaker 3: in the seven spot. Don't hate it, don't love it again.
- 26:21Speaker 3: Twelve games on the slate. If you're only playing a
- 26:23Speaker 3: handful of teams, you have to be a little more picky.
- 26:27Speaker 3: I do think the Rays could be a little interesting, though,
- 26:29Speaker 3: even if playing only a handful of teams. They're taking
- 26:31Speaker 3: on the Angels, Nick Martinez, Walbert, you're reigning on the mound.
- 26:36Speaker 2: This is looking at the hitter rankings.
- 26:38Speaker 3: Miranda Cameronaro both great out very well, Yandi Diaz a
- 26:42Speaker 3: little bit as well.
- 26:43Speaker 2: One thing that's tough.
- 26:44Speaker 3: You can play Diaz, Ronda and Valade, but first base,
- 26:48Speaker 3: first base, first base. Two of them do have other
- 26:50Speaker 3: dual eligibility. This lineup also has two second basemen, so
- 26:54Speaker 3: it's not the easiest to sack position wise, but outside
- 26:58Speaker 3: of Camonaro at five K, it is very cheap if
- 27:01Speaker 3: you want to double spend that picture ownerships in check
- 27:04Speaker 3: as well. Urani doesn't miss many bats.
- 27:07Speaker 2: I'm gonna play. Uh. I think a little of the Rays.
- 27:09Speaker 3: I think they are up there, probably in the top
- 27:11Speaker 3: five of my favorite stacks.
- 27:12Speaker 1: What about you, Yeah, I mean the biggest thing I'm
- 27:15Speaker 1: out their lineup, which still continues, is you can't play
- 27:18Speaker 1: their top three altogether because you got the first and
- 27:21Speaker 1: third and then just the first and third for the
- 27:23Speaker 1: other two. That like, I hate that honestly, Like if
- 27:28Speaker 1: if I wanted to go all in on the Rays,
- 27:29Speaker 1: that wouldn't stop me. But that is a detractor for sure.
- 27:34Speaker 1: For me for them, and I respect or yourania enough
- 27:37Speaker 1: where I don't really want to stack the race here
- 27:40Speaker 1: I touch a big slate. It's more to the fact
- 27:42Speaker 1: that you gotta be picky tonight, so like they are,
- 27:45Speaker 1: only you know, I'm only playing three lineups, so like
- 27:47Speaker 1: I only have so many roster spots, so many teams
- 27:50Speaker 1: I can stack. The Rays are unlikely to be one
- 27:53Speaker 1: of them. I just mentioned how much I like Toronto.
- 27:56Speaker 1: I don't even think they'll be one of them. So
- 27:58Speaker 1: I don't like Tampa as much, even though they've been
- 28:01Speaker 1: amazing against right handed pitching this year. Wouldn't shock me
- 28:03Speaker 1: at all if they won the slate. But I could
- 28:06Speaker 1: say that about fifteen teams tonight, you know for sure.
- 28:11Speaker 3: Yeah, I like the raise I think a little more
- 28:13Speaker 3: than you, but they're not in my top three. I'd
- 28:15Speaker 3: probably put them right around the five. Next game, Boston
- 28:18Speaker 3: Red Sox and the Cleveland Guardian Slate SESSIONI Brian Bellow
- 28:22Speaker 3: on the mound again, two pitchers that don't grade out
- 28:25Speaker 3: too well in the rankings pitcher rankings. I don't love
- 28:30Speaker 3: either as like a five man stack, but I do
- 28:32Speaker 3: think Jose Ramirez is an elite one off and I
- 28:35Speaker 3: think Jaren Duran is an elite one off, so both sides.
- 28:40Speaker 3: Duran's still way too cheap at four point five K.
- 28:43Speaker 3: I don't see myself five manning either side though. Do
- 28:45Speaker 3: you see yourself doing that?
- 28:48Speaker 2: No?
- 28:49Speaker 1: I don't real quick though. I just had to shout
- 28:51Speaker 1: out to Angels from the game before because we skipped
- 28:53Speaker 1: them so easily, and I just had to say, like
- 28:56Speaker 1: Nick Martinez, he's a guy that I think is due
- 28:58Speaker 1: for some negative regression, and I do not hate playing
- 29:01Speaker 1: like the zach Netto's Mike Trouts of the world. There's
- 29:03Speaker 1: a mini stacker as one offs. Just had to throw
- 29:05Speaker 1: that out there from the Boston Cleveland game. This is
- 29:09Speaker 1: a good example of what I talked about earlier. We're
- 29:11Speaker 1: on a lot of slates. Teams that are kind of
- 29:12Speaker 1: falling through the cracks might be top stacks, and this
- 29:16Speaker 1: is a good example both teams. Beo's been awful, Secony stinks,
- 29:20Speaker 1: so the Red Sox and Guards look good in this spot.
- 29:23Speaker 2: It's just they don't look as.
- 29:25Speaker 1: Good as the Yankees are Giants, and there are other
- 29:27Speaker 1: teams that I think are on their level. I think
- 29:29Speaker 1: to your point, it's probably best to play it with
- 29:32Speaker 1: one off or mini stacks jay Ram. Obviously Bizon has
- 29:35Speaker 1: been amazing. I love Bazana leading off for the Guardians,
- 29:38Speaker 1: but you get that first at bat lefty on lefty,
- 29:41Speaker 1: which stinks. If I'm stacking them, I'm definitely using Bazana,
- 29:45Speaker 1: but maybe off him as a one off Jayram, you
- 29:47Speaker 1: can play in any scenario. And then the Boston side
- 29:51Speaker 1: I almost like them more as a full stack. Seconi
- 29:54Speaker 1: is not someone that I'm afraid to pick on at all.
- 29:58Speaker 1: Boston's lineup has been and better lately, and you've got
- 30:02Speaker 1: good weather in Cleveland, so I could get on board
- 30:05Speaker 1: with the Red Sox stack. I could get on board
- 30:07Speaker 1: with Cleveland also. I think I just like the Socks
- 30:09Speaker 1: a little bit more here.
- 30:12Speaker 3: I like how Cleveland's throwing eight of their nine lefties
- 30:16Speaker 3: at like switch hitting or lefties Reeze Hoskins only righty,
- 30:20Speaker 3: which I guess makes it a little tougher on Bellow.
- 30:23Speaker 3: But oh Man is Mott like is Mon's been getting
- 30:28Speaker 3: hit for manz Arotoman getting hit pinch hit for as
- 30:31Speaker 3: much when lefties coming out of the pen like he
- 30:33Speaker 3: was years prior.
- 30:35Speaker 1: Yeah, he'll get pinch hit for late, But it helps
- 30:37Speaker 1: obviously Hoskins in the lineup with him.
- 30:39Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 30:40Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't see the five man stack as much,
- 30:43Speaker 3: but it makes sense, like Duran and and Ramirez are
- 30:46Speaker 3: elite there. You said you had a little interest in
- 30:49Speaker 3: a five man Red Sox stack, but yeah, a twelve
- 30:51Speaker 3: game slate. We're gonna need crooked numbers from one of these,
- 30:55Speaker 3: from whoever you are stacking with twenty four teams on
- 30:59Speaker 3: the slate Orlands Matts, Max Meyer, Freddie Peralta. I mean
- 31:02Speaker 3: number one, and it is Freddy in our rankings. Number
- 31:04Speaker 3: eight is Meyer. We had interests in both pitchers, very
- 31:08Speaker 3: low total, the lowest on the slate. I believe I'm
- 31:11Speaker 3: not getting the bats. I think there's other ways to
- 31:13Speaker 3: get different, but it is baseball. Anything can happen. I
- 31:16Speaker 3: don't think Freddy or Meyer even get enough individual ownership
- 31:19Speaker 3: to make it worth trying to get the leverage against
- 31:21Speaker 3: Do you agree or disagree?
- 31:23Speaker 1: Totally agree. I was gonna say this is like the
- 31:25Speaker 1: Lucky Guesses play, but it's not even because you got
- 31:27Speaker 1: all that leverage against the gram on that slate. So
- 31:30Speaker 1: like I'm with you, this is just a cross off
- 31:32Speaker 1: from offenses. You know, Juan Soto always in play, but
- 31:36Speaker 1: other than that, I'm good all right.
- 31:39Speaker 3: Next game on the slate Chicago Cubs and the Saint
- 31:42Speaker 3: Louis Cardinals, Soto, Inmanaga, Andre Polante on the mound. We
- 31:47Speaker 3: had a question, is uh is this the bounce back
- 31:50Speaker 3: for in Monaga?
- 31:51Speaker 2: Man did he?
- 31:52Speaker 3: Did he get hit around last time out the Cardinals?
- 31:55Speaker 3: The problem is that's like never a team that I play.
- 31:59Speaker 3: We didn't really talk about Imanaga much in terms of pitching,
- 32:01Speaker 3: but because of the matchup and going against the Cardinals,
- 32:04Speaker 3: I think I'm.
- 32:05Speaker 2: Fine with it.
- 32:06Speaker 3: Again, I'm fine with a larger or larger pool at
- 32:09Speaker 3: pitching than usual. As far as the Cubs, though, I'll
- 32:13Speaker 3: let you talk about the Cubs. It's a lineup that
- 32:15Speaker 3: I've stacked quite a bit this year for dfs. They
- 32:18Speaker 3: do have two catchers in the projected order. I'm not
- 32:20Speaker 3: seeing a full order right now, but there the opposite
- 32:23Speaker 3: of the Rays in terms of like it's easy to
- 32:26Speaker 3: stack them positional wise. You can get a second base,
- 32:29Speaker 3: you can get shortstop in the nine to hole, third base.
- 32:31Speaker 3: Bragmant Bush PCA like it. It fits well in the
- 32:34Speaker 3: middle infield, in the top half of the orders. So
- 32:37Speaker 3: any Cubs for you.
- 32:38Speaker 1: That's a really good point and part of the reason
- 32:40Speaker 1: I also stack them a lot because they're easy to roster,
- 32:44Speaker 1: their price tags are usually affordable, and they fit good positions,
- 32:48Speaker 1: kind of similar to the Royals, who will get to
- 32:50Speaker 1: in a little bit. But yeah, I'm in on the
- 32:52Speaker 1: Cubs here. I just again I wrote this in a
- 32:55Speaker 1: slate plan. These Cardinals pitchers are all due for major,
- 32:59Speaker 1: major AGGRESSI McGreevy, Librator, and Leehy. We've seen it with
- 33:04Speaker 1: the other two recently, and I think it's coming for Leehe.
- 33:07Speaker 1: The Cubs, fresh off like a ten or eleven game
- 33:09Speaker 1: losing streak, have won a couple in a row, got
- 33:12Speaker 1: to Skeens yesterday, got to the bullpen, you know, a
- 33:16Speaker 1: day after, they got to Bubba Chandler. You know. Now
- 33:19Speaker 1: they're stepping into a spot against Kyle Leehy, who I
- 33:21Speaker 1: think is just not very good and has pitched over
- 33:24Speaker 1: his head. And the Cubs aren't gonna get much ownership
- 33:28Speaker 1: because no one's gonna get much ownership besides the Giants
- 33:31Speaker 1: or Yankees. So I like them. They're right with Toronto
- 33:34Speaker 1: for me, as like one of the best stacks in
- 33:36Speaker 1: that other group. Well talk about some others though. So again,
- 33:40Speaker 1: as much as I'm endorsing Chicago, like, there are other
- 33:43Speaker 1: stacks I like too, And you gotta be real picky
- 33:45Speaker 1: on slates like this, so they're definitely in play for me.
- 33:49Speaker 1: I'm not gonna sit here and say like, oh, I'm
- 33:51Speaker 1: definitely jamming the Cubs though, because again, there are other
- 33:53Speaker 1: stacks that look just as good.
- 33:56Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, I'm definitely gonna play some Cubs. Like
- 33:58Speaker 3: I talked about the e of the positions, Polonte doesn't
- 34:03Speaker 3: miss any bats, so the balls will be in play.
- 34:06Speaker 2: It's a little stolen based.
- 34:07Speaker 1: Opposite not Le who's worse, way worse.
- 34:12Speaker 2: I think it is a Polonte, isn't it?
- 34:15Speaker 1: Because I think it was originally gonna be Polonte, but
- 34:17Speaker 1: I think he got Oh wait, you know what I'm saying, Polonte?
- 34:21Speaker 1: Now that's interesting. It was originally Polonte and then it
- 34:25Speaker 1: went to Lege.
- 34:26Speaker 3: It might be back to Ponte now though, so I'm
- 34:29Speaker 3: seeing Polonte.
- 34:30Speaker 1: Okay, I'll take your word for it.
- 34:32Speaker 3: Does that make you like him a little less? I mean,
- 34:34Speaker 3: like you can keep the ball on the ground, he
- 34:36Speaker 3: doesn't miss bats, but it makes you like him less?
- 34:39Speaker 1: It does just because I didn't. I don't think he's
- 34:41Speaker 1: as bad as Lea. He like, he doesn't miss bats.
- 34:43Speaker 1: I think you can pick on him, but he's not
- 34:45Speaker 1: someone I'm actively trying to pick on, Like I am,
- 34:48Speaker 1: Lee is the best whack and put it.
- 34:50Speaker 3: Yeah, he's he's more serviceable, but man balls will be
- 34:55Speaker 3: in play all right. The next game. I got interest
- 34:57Speaker 3: on both sides, White Sox and the Tigers. Troy Mellon,
- 35:00Speaker 3: Eric Fetti on the mound, and Eric Fetti is more
- 35:04Speaker 3: likely to be the long reliever. It looks like kind
- 35:06Speaker 3: of another bullpen game for the White Sox. I mean,
- 35:10Speaker 3: how do you not have interests in Mr Kami. The
- 35:12Speaker 3: dude is just a complete stud. Troy Maultain gets hit
- 35:16Speaker 3: a lot harder on the left side of the plate.
- 35:18Speaker 3: Colson Montgomery as well third base and shortstop eligible definitely
- 35:22Speaker 3: have interest.
- 35:22Speaker 2: More mini stacks probably for the White Sox.
- 35:25Speaker 3: But yeah, the lefties look pretty good.
- 35:28Speaker 2: On the Tigers side. Eric Fetty is someone that I
- 35:31Speaker 2: picked on quite a bit. He is for many of
- 35:35Speaker 2: years now. I think the Tigers probably when we're talking
- 35:39Speaker 2: sneaky stacks probably up there as one of my favorites.
- 35:41Speaker 2: I like this lineup pretty much one through nine guaranteed
- 35:45Speaker 2: ninth in he at bats and yeah, Fetti is no good,
- 35:48Speaker 2: So I think this game is pretty sneaky.
- 35:51Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't disagree with that at all. I like
- 35:55Speaker 1: both these teams you mentioned. The White Sox have been
- 35:57Speaker 1: phenomenal lately. Melton is certainly a guy that we can
- 36:01Speaker 1: pick on. It's kind of an unknown, but I don't
- 36:05Speaker 1: expect much from him. And the White Socks have been
- 36:07Speaker 1: awesome lately. So you mentioned their leftis I'm in the
- 36:10Speaker 1: Tigers themselves. If this were a slate with like elite
- 36:16Speaker 1: expensive pitching, I'd be more in on the Tigers that
- 36:18Speaker 1: are really cheap. They've got pinch hit risk here. Like
- 36:22Speaker 1: I think the White Socks are opening with a lefty.
- 36:24Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure.
- 36:25Speaker 2: Correct, yep, correct?
- 36:26Speaker 1: You know is there is is Detroit's lineup out?
- 36:31Speaker 3: I do not believe so, but let me do a
- 36:33Speaker 3: Oh it literally came out six minutes ago. Oh and
- 36:36Speaker 3: it's confirmed now on the stone I just refreshed.
- 36:39Speaker 1: So they probably have to. They have one of their
- 36:41Speaker 1: righty's leading off, Like.
- 36:43Speaker 2: No, they got mcconny.
- 36:45Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no, they got Jami Jones hitting third, So
- 36:47Speaker 1: I would expect him to get pinch hit for literally
- 36:49Speaker 1: after one at bat. So just know that if you're
- 36:51Speaker 1: going in stacking the Tigers, because when Fetti comes in,
- 36:55Speaker 1: they'll probably pinch hit uh col Keith for Joones there.
- 37:00Speaker 1: So yeah, you get your one at bat. Maybe it's enough.
- 37:04Speaker 1: I mean it's first at bat, but.
- 37:06Speaker 3: I wouldn't play him even if you want to five
- 37:08Speaker 3: man the Tigers, I don't one at bad.
- 37:11Speaker 2: It's not enough.
- 37:12Speaker 3: I don't care if you're seven hundred dollars like they
- 37:14Speaker 3: used to do Chris Davis on Pandora But that was
- 37:17Speaker 3: hilarious man.
- 37:19Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 37:21Speaker 3: Yeah, So your thoughts on the Tigers, why comparing them
- 37:24Speaker 3: to like the Rays or now you don't like the
- 37:28Speaker 3: Cubs as much but in that second tier boat.
- 37:31Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they're right in line with the Cubs
- 37:33Speaker 1: for me now, like I did have the Cubs higher,
- 37:35Speaker 1: but I don't anymore. I like the Cubs, I like
- 37:38Speaker 1: the Tigers. I think I like the Blue Jays more
- 37:42Speaker 1: than either. Yeah, they're probably like right in line with
- 37:47Speaker 1: the race for me, just easier to roster. They do
- 37:51Speaker 1: have a bunch of outfielders, but they're a lot cheaper
- 37:54Speaker 1: so you can fit really good pieces around them, which
- 37:56Speaker 1: is always nice.
- 37:58Speaker 3: Absolutely all right, we'll keep it rolling. Still, plenty of
- 38:00Speaker 3: games to talk about. The Royals and the Rangers. Kolik
- 38:03Speaker 3: and McKenzie Gore on the mound. This is not a
- 38:07Speaker 3: game I see myself getting too much at all. I'm
- 38:09Speaker 3: gonna be on the McKenzie Gore side. Even those range
- 38:12Speaker 3: of outcomes is pretty wide. As far as the Rangers,
- 38:16Speaker 3: I mean, it's a twelve game slate. There's just the
- 38:18Speaker 3: pricing is very similar to the Tigers we just talked about,
- 38:21Speaker 3: and I much prefer the Tigers, so I'm gonna pass
- 38:24Speaker 3: in this game.
- 38:26Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I like this game more than the
- 38:27Speaker 1: field does, more of like a just a gut field
- 38:30Speaker 1: than anything else. I like this Royals lineup today. Gore
- 38:34Speaker 1: is a picture that I like. He's talented, no doubt
- 38:37Speaker 1: about it, but he's very volatile. You get this casey
- 38:42Speaker 1: lineup away from home. I know that the ballpark in
- 38:44Speaker 1: Kansas City plays much better for offense now, but they
- 38:48Speaker 1: didn't play well on that series against New York and
- 38:51Speaker 1: now their lineup comes out here. You got like uber
- 38:54Speaker 1: cheap lane Thomas who expected just stay in there. Leading
- 38:57Speaker 1: off obviously with Garcia there so inexpensive, and I think
- 39:02Speaker 1: they have decent upset in this spot. So again, I'm
- 39:06Speaker 1: not playing enough lineups where I'm likely to play them,
- 39:09Speaker 1: but they're in consideration for me, especially now with the Cubs,
- 39:12Speaker 1: like I just don't like the Cubs as much anymore.
- 39:15Speaker 1: And it's slim margins on a slate like this. As
- 39:18Speaker 1: you mentioned earlier, you got to be picky. So I
- 39:21Speaker 1: don't know if I'm gonna like sell my soul on
- 39:22Speaker 1: the Royals here, but I might use a couple of
- 39:24Speaker 1: pieces here and there.
- 39:26Speaker 3: All right, all right, definitely will be really low ow
- 39:29Speaker 3: if you are playing the Giants or the Yankees, pairing
- 39:33Speaker 3: them with like a Freddie perraulta if you're eating chalk,
- 39:35Speaker 3: chalk chalk. I think getting the Royals as mini is
- 39:38Speaker 3: a way to get different with your lineup, for sure,
- 39:40Speaker 3: but hard for me to get to anyone in that game.
- 39:43Speaker 3: Brewers Astro is another very low owned game. Kway Tang
- 39:47Speaker 3: and Coleman Crow on the mound, I mean, two pitchers
- 39:51Speaker 3: that we really don't know too much about. Jordan. You
- 39:54Speaker 3: can always play Yordong. I think he's a very elite
- 39:57Speaker 3: one off sixty three hundred. Don't see myself for really
- 40:00Speaker 3: five man stack in the Astros too much after that.
- 40:03Speaker 3: As far as the Brewers, I don't mind some of
- 40:04Speaker 3: the lefties Yelich leading off to Ring at second base,
- 40:08Speaker 3: Jake Bauers, Garrett Mitchell, but they're not cheat by any means.
- 40:13Speaker 3: I mean one through six, four point two k or above.
- 40:17Speaker 3: Not that salary is too tight on this slate, but yeah,
- 40:19Speaker 3: I don't hate some of these Brewers, mainly the lefties.
- 40:22Speaker 3: They have some pop. I don't know how much I
- 40:26Speaker 3: want to five man stack the Brewers though. What are
- 40:28Speaker 3: your thoughts on on the Brewers versus the Rays, versus
- 40:31Speaker 3: the Royals versus the Tigers.
- 40:35Speaker 1: I think they both teams fit like in that group
- 40:38Speaker 1: just because of how good they are. Like, Tang has
- 40:43Speaker 1: been pretty good recently, so like, I'm not excited to
- 40:47Speaker 1: pick on the Brewers that or to pick on him
- 40:49Speaker 1: with the Brewers that said, Like I like the Brewers offense,
- 40:53Speaker 1: I'm not like, I don't know if Tang's going to
- 40:56Speaker 1: be that good going forward. I don't think he will be.
- 41:00Speaker 1: The Astros bullpen stinks, so I think there's a role
- 41:03Speaker 1: for Milwaukee on this slate. You mentioned their price tags.
- 41:07Speaker 1: That might be a detriment, but again it's gonna lower
- 41:12Speaker 1: their ownership. So I'm interested in the Brewers here even
- 41:15Speaker 1: though like they're not the top stack on the board,
- 41:18Speaker 1: they're in play. And then the Astros even more of
- 41:23Speaker 1: an unknown in Crow. They're more of like a mini
- 41:26Speaker 1: stack team for me. You talked about Alvarez. They got
- 41:29Speaker 1: Taylor Trammell leading off. He's super cheap, so I think
- 41:33Speaker 1: using a bat or two from Houston makes sense, but
- 41:35Speaker 1: I'm probably good on five man stacking them.
- 41:38Speaker 3: Yeah, Tremill might be a little popular, like not too
- 41:42Speaker 3: too popular, but at twenty three hundred leading off him
- 41:45Speaker 3: Lane Thomas two guys that people fill their lineups in
- 41:50Speaker 3: for value if they need a last spot, and then GPPs.
- 41:54Speaker 3: To be honest, I usually try to ignore players like
- 41:57Speaker 3: that that just people play him because they fill more
- 42:00Speaker 3: so then they like them.
- 42:01Speaker 1: But who would you who would you ignore? Who would
- 42:04Speaker 1: you be not playing before? Like if you had to
- 42:07Speaker 1: play one of them, who would you play? I guess
- 42:09Speaker 1: the best way to put it Lane or Tremmel.
- 42:12Speaker 3: Probably Layane Thomas. I play Lane literally way more than
- 42:15Speaker 3: I want to admit in cash games this year and
- 42:19Speaker 3: he seems to somewhat get the job done. But I
- 42:22Speaker 3: mean it's the thing it's nice about both of them
- 42:24Speaker 3: is you have your Don and Bobby Wit hitting right
- 42:27Speaker 3: behind you pretty shortly after, so just get on back
- 42:30Speaker 3: a little bit too.
- 42:30Speaker 1: I think.
- 42:31Speaker 3: Yeah, they run a little bit and get on base,
- 42:34Speaker 3: and even if you get a single, I mean your
- 42:37Speaker 3: Done can pop one over. Bobby Wit obviously can as well,
- 42:41Speaker 3: so that that part's nice. But I'd probably go Laye Thomas, No, no, strongly.
- 42:45Speaker 1: I'm with you.
- 42:47Speaker 2: Appreciate that. Delbert yup all of our m m A content.
- 42:49Speaker 3: We'll be up on the site shortly after me and

- 43:51Speaker 3: we have options for you now to join. All right,
- 43:55Speaker 3: let's get back to the stone and talk about the
- 43:57Speaker 3: most popular game of the slates, and that is coors
- 44:01Speaker 3: Field San Francisco Giants, Colorado Rockies logan web Michael Lorenzen
- 44:06Speaker 3: on the mound. I mean, just looking at this ownership
- 44:09Speaker 3: is not something I love when we're talking baseball. That
- 44:13Speaker 3: is very scary. It also just shows that, I mean,
- 44:16Speaker 3: they're in their own tier. Like the Yankees at five
- 44:18Speaker 3: point three runs, you actually had some holes to pick
- 44:21Speaker 3: on to Poknum and you like some Sevarino, So that
- 44:25Speaker 3: means the Giants even see more in a tier of
- 44:27Speaker 3: their own. With that being said, it's baseball. Would anyone
- 44:30Speaker 3: be surprised to see a one nothing game? Nope, that happens.
- 44:33Speaker 3: So do you plan on taking an overweight or underweight approach?
- 44:37Speaker 1: Well, I think that that's a good way to break
- 44:38Speaker 1: it down, because I didn't think about it like that
- 44:40Speaker 1: too much because I was focused on just other things.
- 44:43Speaker 1: But yes, me personally, I think they are in a
- 44:45Speaker 1: tier of their own over the Yankees. So if I'm
- 44:48Speaker 1: playing a chalky offense tonight, it's definitely the Giants for me.
- 44:53Speaker 1: That said, I do think the Giants are higher on
- 44:56Speaker 1: than the Yankees because they're cheaper, they're in cores, they're
- 45:00Speaker 1: against Lorenz in a worst pitcher. But to your point,
- 45:02Speaker 1: I think they're in a much better spot. Like I
- 45:04Speaker 1: respect Savarino as a pitcher, I can't say the same
- 45:07Speaker 1: for Lorenzen. Giants. Obviously, you get about as big as
- 45:10Speaker 1: a park upgrade as you can get going from San
- 45:12Speaker 1: fran to Colorado. And they've been pretty good recently, like
- 45:16Speaker 1: they started the season awful, But we know this lineup
- 45:19Speaker 1: is talented, Like it's not the Dodgers or the Yankees,
- 45:22Speaker 1: but they got guys here. Willie Adamas, Rafael Devers, Matt Chapman,
- 45:29Speaker 1: Like they got guys in their lineup, Bryce Eldridge raped
- 45:32Speaker 1: in the minors. So yeah, it's Casey Schmidt's having a
- 45:36Speaker 1: phenomenal year. They're so cheap. The only guys over five
- 45:40Speaker 1: K are Devers and Schmidt fifty one and fifty two hundred.
- 45:44Speaker 1: You got like Chapman and a Domis low four k's
- 45:47Speaker 1: Gilbert Bader whoever. Their outfielders are low three K's just
- 45:52Speaker 1: a really easy team to stack in the best spot
- 45:55Speaker 1: on the slate. I'll say this, if I don't use them,
- 45:58Speaker 1: it's only because of ownership. I think they're definitely the
- 46:01Speaker 1: best stack on the board.
- 46:03Speaker 2: Makes a lot of sense.
- 46:04Speaker 3: So if you're playing four teams, what do you think
- 46:06Speaker 3: too of four that take puts you overweight?
- 46:09Speaker 1: Yeah, two a four, you know, maybe three or four,
- 46:14Speaker 1: Like maybe one of four. You know what I'm saying,
- 46:16Speaker 1: Like I'm in this spot, like I could see just
- 46:19Speaker 1: going heavy on it. That said, like ownership, it's such
- 46:24Speaker 1: a big slate, and there are other really good spots
- 46:27Speaker 1: that I like that are gonna be so much lower owned.
- 46:30Speaker 1: And as we talk about often like getting to the
- 46:33Speaker 1: top of tournaments, is the goal. So like, the easiest
- 46:37Speaker 1: path is probably not playing the Giants. It's just a
- 46:40Speaker 1: matter of how much better of a spot are they in.
- 46:42Speaker 1: I'm not sure yet, you know what I mean for sure?
- 46:46Speaker 3: Now, something I've always liked to do is play the
- 46:50Speaker 3: other side, the lower own side of Cores, which almost
- 46:53Speaker 3: always is the Rockies. Now it is a lot easier
- 46:55Speaker 3: years ago with Aaronado and Story and guys that Tulowitzki, Like,
- 47:00Speaker 3: we're talking way back, yeah, so it was a lot
- 47:03Speaker 3: easier to do then.
- 47:04Speaker 2: Granted usually their ownership was a little higher.
- 47:07Speaker 3: Now it's always feels like the past three years Rockies
- 47:11Speaker 3: are always still pretty low owned at Cores, and the
- 47:13Speaker 3: other team, the away team, always seems underpriced and gets
- 47:16Speaker 3: the ownership. Man, this lineup is gross, but on a
- 47:20Speaker 3: slate where it's cool.
- 47:21Speaker 2: On the slide I don't like much.
- 47:23Speaker 3: Their run total is still fine and they get to
- 47:26Speaker 3: play in coors Field, which I'm a coors Field slappy,
- 47:29Speaker 3: like I just naturally have interest, But like, who would
- 47:32Speaker 3: be the five hitters that I'm stacking or some of
- 47:34Speaker 3: your favorites? And do you see yourself playing any Rockies
- 47:36Speaker 3: more than just Mini six?
- 47:38Speaker 1: I don't but I think they're the most voleace house
- 47:41Speaker 1: stack on the slate. And what I mean by that is,
- 47:44Speaker 1: if you told me they were like your third favorite
- 47:45Speaker 1: stack behind the Yankees and Dodgers, I couldn't argue it.
- 47:49Speaker 1: If you told me they were like your fifteenth or twentieth,
- 47:52Speaker 1: I wouldn't argue it either, because you got Logan Web
- 47:54Speaker 1: on the hill and it's the Rockies. Logan Webb is
- 47:57Speaker 1: an unknown right now though coming off Knieber site wasn't
- 48:00Speaker 1: particularly good prior to that. But I'm still a believer
- 48:04Speaker 1: in his stuff, so I'm not gonna go out of
- 48:07Speaker 1: my way to pick on him with the Rockies, but
- 48:11Speaker 1: neither is the field. You got great hitting weather in cores,
- 48:14Speaker 1: So like, I definitely get it. I don't think I'm
- 48:16Speaker 1: personally gonna play it, but to say I don't understand
- 48:20Speaker 1: the play would be, you know, foolish. I clearly get
- 48:23Speaker 1: it on paper, they might be the top tournament stack
- 48:26Speaker 1: on the board, when when you really look at the numbers.
- 48:29Speaker 3: Yeah, I like the Rockies more than the field for sure.
- 48:32Speaker 3: If you're playing four teams, you play one five man
- 48:35Speaker 3: stack that's away, But yeah, I like it.
- 48:39Speaker 2: Logan Web four k is how we feeling.
- 48:41Speaker 3: I'd be a little nervous there, But by no means
- 48:43Speaker 3: do I consider myself a professional sports better, especially diving
- 48:47Speaker 3: into to strake up props. Yeah, that is the problem,
- 48:50Speaker 3: for sure, there's no doubt about that. But I'm hoping
- 48:52Speaker 3: today they can get the job done a little bit
- 48:55Speaker 3: against a beat up web. All right, three games left, Yeah,
- 48:59Speaker 3: three games left the Yankees and the A's Carlos Rodin
- 49:02Speaker 3: Luis Severino on the mound. I think the ownership might
- 49:06Speaker 3: even be higher on the Yankees than we're showing right now.
- 49:10Speaker 3: Judge and Grisham at the top, Like, when are they
- 49:12Speaker 3: ever gonna raise Trent Grisham's price three point five k?
- 49:15Speaker 3: Leading off, it's I play him all the time. Another
- 49:18Speaker 3: cash player over here, play him all the time because
- 49:20Speaker 3: he's free at the top of a good order.
- 49:23Speaker 2: But several reno, he keeps the ball on the ground.
- 49:25Speaker 2: You talked about it. He's not a gas can by
- 49:27Speaker 2: any means.
- 49:27Speaker 3: It's mainly the Yankees order with the park and guaranteed
- 49:31Speaker 3: ninth in a at bats. But yeah, it sounds like
- 49:34Speaker 3: you're gonna be underweight Yankees. I think the A's are
- 49:36Speaker 3: interesting if Roddan is one of the most chockey pitchers
- 49:39Speaker 3: on the slates. I always like playing Langleiers. Nick Kurtz
- 49:42Speaker 3: is a monster, Brett Rooker is a beast. One through
- 49:44Speaker 3: five looks pretty good, and then how can I argue
- 49:47Speaker 3: a twenty five hundred catcher as well if you're not
- 49:49Speaker 3: playing Langleiers. So I don't know about the two guys
- 49:53Speaker 3: at the bottom the order. I mean, they're cheap, but
- 49:56Speaker 3: they look like kind of zero's to me. So, yeah,
- 49:58Speaker 3: what's your take on this interesting game?
- 50:01Speaker 1: Yeah, so the Yankees, I think you're right. I do
- 50:03Speaker 1: think that maybe I'm downplaying how old they'll be. Maybe
- 50:05Speaker 1: it is close to what the Giants are, just because
- 50:07Speaker 1: outside of Judge and Rice, they're pretty cheap. You know,
- 50:12Speaker 1: Jazz is decently expensive, but nothing crazy Grisham, obviously Bellinger.
- 50:17Speaker 1: They're more expensive than the Giants, which is why I
- 50:19Speaker 1: think the Giants get more love. But the Yankees aren't
- 50:22Speaker 1: like crazy expensive either, So yeah, I am like where
- 50:26Speaker 1: the field is on these teams. I'm more on the Giants,
- 50:29Speaker 1: but I understand the Yankees love here. We get the
- 50:31Speaker 1: appeal of going to this ballpark. You get Severino, who
- 50:35Speaker 1: isn't a gas Can, but he's also like not great either,
- 50:38Speaker 1: so I get why the field is going here. I
- 50:42Speaker 1: just personally think the Yankees are more in line with
- 50:44Speaker 1: like the other stacks we've talked about, and they're gonna
- 50:49Speaker 1: be much higher own, like they'll be higher on than
- 50:51Speaker 1: everyone but the Giants by a good margin. So if
- 50:53Speaker 1: I'm gonna play with Jockey Stack, I'm gonna play the Giants.
- 50:56Speaker 1: But Saber loves the Yankees, like they're giving me all Yankees,
- 51:01Speaker 1: So I get it, and I do think that the
- 51:04Speaker 1: field is going to be there, so fade them at
- 51:06Speaker 1: your own at your own risk.
- 51:08Speaker 3: I guess, yeah, I like the Giants more as well.
- 51:13Speaker 3: But if I'm just looking at this ownership and it
- 51:15Speaker 3: is true, like if the cards are flipped over and
- 51:17Speaker 3: this is what we see half the ownership of the
- 51:19Speaker 3: Yankees and the Giants, then I would change my stance
- 51:22Speaker 3: on that and take the Yankees at half the ownership.
- 51:25Speaker 3: But I don't necessarily know if that holds true. I
- 51:29Speaker 3: do think the Giants coming maybe similar to this, but
- 51:31Speaker 3: I think the Yankees for the most of these guys
- 51:34Speaker 3: coming a little higher than projected. But yeah, we will
- 51:37Speaker 3: see two games left. Diamondbacks and the Mariners Zach Gallen
- 51:42Speaker 3: and George Kirby on the mound. George Kirby is gonna
- 51:45Speaker 3: get ownership, so if you want to try and get
- 51:47Speaker 3: some direct leverage you talked about. Kettle Marte from the
- 51:50Speaker 3: top has been great. Corbyn Carroll, you can always play.
- 51:53Speaker 3: I don't hate it, but man, it's a tough park
- 51:56Speaker 3: to hit him. That is not something that I don't
- 51:58Speaker 3: play too many stacks. Going out to Seattle Marinis side
- 52:02Speaker 3: against Gallen, they finally got Julio Rodriguez price about five k.
- 52:06Speaker 3: I feel like he was four or five for like
- 52:08Speaker 3: four weeks. Another guy was clicking every single day.
- 52:12Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't.
- 52:13Speaker 3: I don't love either stack personally, I don't, to be honest,
- 52:16Speaker 3: love the last four the West Coast games. I'll be
- 52:18Speaker 3: hoping that I'm sitting in first if playing tonight going
- 52:22Speaker 3: into these last games.
- 52:23Speaker 1: Personally, yeah, same risky though, because especially with the yeah.
- 52:28Speaker 3: Yeah, the cores game's nervous. But these last two itself,
- 52:31Speaker 3: I'm not too scared of.
- 52:33Speaker 1: I'm not either, But that said, like all four offenses
- 52:36Speaker 1: here are good. Like the Seattle Arizona game, I'm out
- 52:39Speaker 1: on it as a full stack just because of the
- 52:41Speaker 1: ballpark on this slate, Gallon, He's a picture I've really
- 52:45Speaker 1: liked in years past. He seems on the edge of
- 52:49Speaker 1: being watched. Now. A couple of decent starts back to back.
- 52:53Speaker 1: Seattle's expensive now. Also, I can't get to them in
- 52:55Speaker 1: this park. The Arizona side is more interesting because you
- 52:59Speaker 1: get the lever. That said, the only guys that interest
- 53:02Speaker 1: me are Marte and Carroll. I think that mini stack
- 53:05Speaker 1: is enough on this slate. There's so many good spots.
- 53:08Speaker 1: I could see playing those two guys, even though they're expensive,
- 53:10Speaker 1: just because of how good they are. That's probably it
- 53:13Speaker 1: for me, though, except for if I were playing the
- 53:15Speaker 1: late Sleep.
- 53:16Speaker 2: Yeah, I think those two are totally fine to play.
- 53:19Speaker 1: Again.
- 53:19Speaker 3: They're expensive, but you could argue they could even be
- 53:21Speaker 3: more expensive for the upside they have. Right, salary on
- 53:25Speaker 3: this late isn't too tight, and then you just don't
- 53:27Speaker 3: play George Kirby.
- 53:28Speaker 2: That's your direct leverage.
- 53:30Speaker 3: Those two are enough than a full five man stack,
- 53:32Speaker 3: so I don't hate it one bit. I think it
- 53:34Speaker 3: is very interesting. On this late we are going to
- 53:37Speaker 3: the last game. Our man lone Wolf says Stack Philly.
- 53:40Speaker 3: It is the Philadelphia Phillies and the Los Angeles Dodgers,
- 53:43Speaker 3: Zach Wheeler Justin Robowski on the mound Again. I respect
- 53:48Speaker 3: Zach Wheeler enough where I don't think I want to
- 53:51Speaker 3: play too many Yankees, but I also respect the Yankees
- 53:54Speaker 3: where I don't see myself playing much Zach Wheeler. You
- 53:57Speaker 3: didn't make a point at the end to play Wheeler
- 53:59Speaker 3: and reasons that makes sense. Pitching is bad, salary doesn't
- 54:02Speaker 3: mean much. Take the best arm on the slate and
- 54:04Speaker 3: hope maybe twenty is enough and he gets you there. Yeah,
- 54:08Speaker 3: I guess I wouldn't be shocked. But man, this this
- 54:10Speaker 3: Dodgers lineup is it's tough, and they're gonna be throwing
- 54:14Speaker 3: a decent amount of lefties at them. But yeah, what
- 54:16Speaker 3: are you doing in this one?
- 54:17Speaker 1: I think you could make the same case that I
- 54:19Speaker 1: made for Wheeler for the Dodgers themselves. Also, I mean,
- 54:21Speaker 1: it's the best line in baseball. Wheeler's really good, but
- 54:24Speaker 1: if he doesn't have his best stuff, the Dodger will
- 54:26Speaker 1: make anyone pay and they won't get any love because
- 54:29Speaker 1: they're facing Wheeler and they're crazy expensive and I probably
- 54:33Speaker 1: won't play them, But neither side is gonna get love
- 54:36Speaker 1: because both sides are really good and expensive. But that
- 54:39Speaker 1: doesn't mean that like the upside has disappeared for Wheeler
- 54:43Speaker 1: or the Dodgers stack. It just means they're in tougher
- 54:46Speaker 1: spots than normal, but one side is likely to be
- 54:50Speaker 1: really good. Here both sides are expensive enough, or you
- 54:54Speaker 1: might not need it either way. My point on Wheeler
- 54:57Speaker 1: is that he's the best actual pitcher on the slate,
- 54:59Speaker 1: and we don't like any other pitchers, so why not
- 55:01Speaker 1: have them in the pool. My point on the Dodgers
- 55:03Speaker 1: is the same. It always is, like their upside when
- 55:07Speaker 1: they go off is so good for DFS purposes because
- 55:10Speaker 1: they hit home runs. So I'm not gonna stack them,
- 55:13Speaker 1: but I'm aware of that on every slate. The Phillies
- 55:16Speaker 1: man more interesting to me. Robleski is another one of
- 55:19Speaker 1: these pictures. Due for major regression, it started to happen.
- 55:23Speaker 1: You get a pretty good ballpark for hitting home runs
- 55:25Speaker 1: here for hitting in general. A Phillies lineup that you know,
- 55:29Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the top three with Trey Turner
- 55:32Speaker 1: hitting kind of like what I'm seeing, So those would
- 55:35Speaker 1: be the three guys I'd be more in most interested
- 55:38Speaker 1: in here is Turner and then the two big boppers
- 55:41Speaker 1: and Harper and Schwarber. Problem is you get the left
- 55:44Speaker 1: on left with those guys. So yeah, I'm probably out
- 55:47Speaker 1: on full stacking either side of this game, but know
- 55:51Speaker 1: that both sides are really good offenses and can break
- 55:53Speaker 1: any slate they're on.
- 55:55Speaker 2: For sure.
- 55:56Speaker 3: I'd always prefer when I sacked the Phillies to go
- 55:59Speaker 3: against the riety I do against the lefty. But I mean, yeah,
- 56:02Speaker 3: a lot of good points that chat's making about. I mean,
- 56:05Speaker 3: how hot the Phillies are some of the individual bats.
- 56:08Speaker 2: So I don't hate it.
- 56:09Speaker 3: I don't love it on a twelve games slate, I
- 56:11Speaker 3: will be hoping again for the most part outside of cores,
- 56:15Speaker 3: that these West Coast games busts and maybe get a
- 56:17Speaker 3: low owned East Coast gamer an early start time that
- 56:21Speaker 3: puts up a crooking number.
- 56:22Speaker 2: Early. Appreciate it.
- 56:24Speaker 3: Michael, always fun hopping on talking baseball. Great job has
- 56:28Speaker 3: always met any final thought from you here, and then
- 56:31Speaker 3: I want basketball, since you're a basketball guy as well,
- 56:33Speaker 3: on to know Game seven your take, and then who
- 56:36Speaker 3: wins the NBA Finals before we get on out here.
- 56:40Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna ask you that earlier, just kind
- 56:42Speaker 1: of you know, I'll answer them. Throw it back to you.
- 56:44Speaker 1: If you think the Knicks actually have a shot, I
- 56:47Speaker 1: kind of do. Considering how the West has played out
- 56:49Speaker 1: and the team beating up on each other, I think, Okay,
- 56:51Speaker 1: See takes it at home. I think San Antonio, you know,
- 56:58Speaker 1: has obviously been awesome and they can kind of use
- 57:01Speaker 1: this as a growing experience. But Okayse, he's been there
- 57:04Speaker 1: and done that, and they're at home for Game seven,
- 57:06Speaker 1: So okay see at home. And then, Man, I've struggled
- 57:11Speaker 1: with this because before the Cavs next year is I
- 57:13Speaker 1: never would have said the Knicks or either team had
- 57:15Speaker 1: a shot against the West. But considering how good the
- 57:18Speaker 1: Knicks have been and how rested they are, I'm gonna
- 57:21Speaker 1: I'm gonna say the nixt I think the Knicks win
- 57:23Speaker 1: the title. And a lot of that also is how
- 57:25Speaker 1: much how much Okay struggled with Indiana last year before
- 57:28Speaker 1: Haliburton got hurt in Game seven. So give me the Knicks.
- 57:32Speaker 1: I don't think Okac is as dominant as they were
- 57:34Speaker 1: last year. How about you.
- 57:36Speaker 2: They're definitely beat up, no doubt about that.
- 57:39Speaker 3: With Gale Williams losing Mitchell is definitely big for a
- 57:43Speaker 3: man he was, he was really good. I'm going okay
- 57:45Speaker 3: see at home, I think it's gonna be a dogfight.
- 57:48Speaker 3: Like Dylan Harper is a complete stud and might have
- 57:51Speaker 3: only been better when Fox was out and they had
- 57:52Speaker 3: to run him more. I think Oka See pulls through
- 57:56Speaker 3: very well coached. And then I'm not picking the Knicks.
- 58:00Speaker 3: I do think okay see. N SGA is too dominant
- 58:05Speaker 3: when it's all said and done.
- 58:07Speaker 2: But man, like the Knicks the Mittrob. What I love
- 58:10Speaker 2: is just how versatile they can go with the Mitrod
- 58:12Speaker 2: and cat stuff. Like Mittrob playing Game one is really good.
- 58:15Speaker 1: Problem.
- 58:16Speaker 3: They are good, there's no doubt about that. And they
- 58:18Speaker 3: have scores, and they have unity. I mean, they've off
- 58:21Speaker 3: each other just about.
- 58:23Speaker 1: To say that, man like, you can't understate overstate that.
- 58:26Speaker 1: And as far as like, especially in the NBA, they
- 58:28Speaker 1: all like playing with each other. They've taken Brunton off
- 58:30Speaker 1: the ball like he's obviously their closer still, but they
- 58:33Speaker 1: just play with a level of freeness that is unique
- 58:38Speaker 1: in the NBA circles quite frankly, and they're fun to
- 58:41Speaker 1: watch when it's not your team getting handled by them,
- 58:43Speaker 1: you know.
- 58:44Speaker 2: For sure?
- 58:45Speaker 3: Yeah, Mitch hurt his finger. It looks like he'll play
- 58:47Speaker 3: Game one though. The Jared McCain, I mean, man, if
- 58:49Speaker 3: the OKAC didn't have them, this series I think looks
- 58:52Speaker 3: completely different. They needed that secondary guy to be able
- 58:55Speaker 3: to score with the ball in his hand and get
- 58:57Speaker 3: his own Nope, they kind of lack that. Okay See
- 59:00Speaker 3: did well, especially when they lost she and Williams with
- 59:02Speaker 3: the injury.
- 59:03Speaker 2: So that's uh, I means.
- 59:06Speaker 1: Crazy too, And you might disagree with this. I'm interested
- 59:08Speaker 1: to hear your take. I said, I think okayc wins
- 59:10Speaker 1: this series. They're at home game seven. I think san
- 59:13Speaker 1: Antonio is already better than them, Like I would take
- 59:16Speaker 1: san Antonio going forward over okay See.
- 59:18Speaker 2: Personally, I would probably because of Wemby.
- 59:21Speaker 3: I mean, I think he's the best player in the game,
- 59:23Speaker 3: and I mean Castle is a monster, Harper is a
- 59:26Speaker 3: phenomenal rookie.
- 59:27Speaker 1: But yeah, it's those three Harper, Castle and obviously Wemby.
- 59:33Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, Wenby just takes up the whole paint.
- 59:35Speaker 3: Like you just can't you drive, you can't get a layup,
- 59:38Speaker 3: you have to alter your shot, you have to pass
- 59:40Speaker 3: it out like that. One guy just changes everything, which
- 59:43Speaker 3: we've hardly really seen in the past, so I'm I'm
- 59:46Speaker 3: pumped for it, though no doubt I know it's a
- 59:47Speaker 3: baseball show.
- 59:48Speaker 2: We waited to the end.
- 59:49Speaker 3: Matt and I talked a lot of basketball throughout the year,
- 59:51Speaker 3: though Sodown's been fun. So yeah, pies are great. Prides
- 59:56Speaker 3: are still good in baseball though, so we would love
- 59:58Speaker 3: to have. You can get all those sports NBA, I'll be, MMA, NASCAR, NHL,
- 1:00:02Speaker 3: and PGA all for forty nine dollars usually ninety nine dollars.

- 1:00:20Speaker 1: Slate getting me excited. How much case Savers given me,
