• 0:41
  Speaker 2: What's up, Boys and girls. We got us a Thursday
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: main slate of some baseball talk about we got six
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: games over there on the two sites that we enjoy
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: playing on daily daily Fantasy Sports. I got my man
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: Matt here with me on this Thursday for a couple
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: of weeks out here, fourth of July. I know everybody
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: likes to get out there, get some barbecuing on. Matt
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: and I were just talking about, you know, me being
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: out in the campground playing some bags, drinking some beer,
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: hanging out the fire. I think tonight i'm'll set up
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: my big screen out there and watch some US soccer tonight,
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: as long as the Ranger don't get mad at me
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: for being too late. But either way, we don't give
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: a shit about the Ranger. We all were gonna have
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: some fun, win some cash. I did all right last night.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Matt had some had some phillies and had the right
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: brewers on my team. Too bad. Scooball didn't do all
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: that great, but he was like sixty percent owned in
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: one hundred dollars single entry thing I was in last night.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: I'm fan duel, but uh yeah, got six games here today,
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: got some decent pitching, it looks like, so excited to
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: break it down with you. But what's going on, my friend?
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: How's the week? Ben week?
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: It's been good man, Probably not as good as you.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: You're living the dream over there, but we're getting there.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Excited to talk this slate out with you. I feel
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: like we haven't had a slate like this in a
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: while where all the games start by what is it,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: seven forty five Eastern, so don't really have a late night,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: which I'm all about so excited for that, only six games.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: I like these Thursday slates kind of get a little
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: more granular with it because less games. So yeah, I'm
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: sure tomorrow will have a whole different set of games.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Haven't even looked at the schedule yet. Cors Sacramento slash Vegas.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Who knows. We don't have any of that tonight, So
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to talking this one out with yet.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean six games. Yeah, like you said, the
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: schedule usually flips on Friday for the weekend games. But yeah,
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, what if we're hot, getting a hot time
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: of the year, you know, wet. We had a couple
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: of rainouts here in the last few days, I just
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: wish my Tigers get their head out of their ass here.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: I still can't believe as bad as they are speaking,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: I can't believe off topic of baseball, Terry and Arnold,
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: I'll just say it out now. You are the biggest
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: donkey since freaking Aaron Hernandez. You are a donkey bro
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Like I, I mean, dude, what are you doing? Man?
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Like?
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: Ahly, damn it, I mean I'm the lion. I'd still say,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: like you are dumb dude, like at the ball whirled
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: by the balls and you go out and do something
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: like four counts of felony kidnapping and freaking arm robbery.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Like I I got nothing to say, Matt, I really
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: don't like. That's just terrible. And I will say I'm
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: sad all week. Man, man, my man, Dusty May leaving Michigan.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: That kind of kicked me in the nuts a little bit.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: I won't lie. I was sad about that, but hey,
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: he was one of my favorite coach. He sat in
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: front of that Michigan State student section all coping before
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: the game, like I was like, man, I like this
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: guy giving him a little shit back. But uh yeah,
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: so crazy week out here in Michigan Sports, that is
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: for sure. But uh, like, I'm.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Not gonna lie as an Ohio State fan. I'm not
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: that I'm not that upset that Dusty May is gone.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: And I feel like you're totally in the right to
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: be upset about it because he's awesome and you just
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: won a title. But I feel like it's hard to
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: get that mad about it whenever a guy goes from
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: college to the pros, just because it's hard to turn
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: down the pros more money, you know, less opportunities, et cetera,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: et cetera. You know what I mean.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: You know what I think, though it kind of bugs
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: me mad, is there's rumors around here that he was
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: just fed up with the NIL system already because you
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: literally got to re recruit your players every year. When
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: the season's over, they're in your office, like how much
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: money gonna pay me next year to stay? You know, Like,
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: so he said he couldn't stand that. Now, that could
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: be an easy outclause to say, like maybe he'd done
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: something wrong, something might be coming down the butt. Who
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: damn knows what's happening over there, Like it's crazy talent
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: over there. But you know, it just seemed like he
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: didn't get along with the ad and all that. I
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: get it. He takes the jump, I mean, he gets
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: the coach Cooper flag. So it ain't like he's going
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: to coach, you know, Like I can't even be mad
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: at that. It's not like he went to.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Freaking yeah exactly. He's not going like to Rutgers, you
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like he's going to the MAVs.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: I'm with you. It's always tough though, Like the thing
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: that for me, like what would kill me most about
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: it if I were a Michigan fan and my cousin
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: who I'm really close with went to Michigan is a
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: huge Michigan And it's just the timing of it, like
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: seems like it's gonna be tough to get a solid
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: replacement like this year, and who knows what the domino
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: effects of that are. But got you guys a title,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: so that's all that really matters.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: That's true. That is true. But you know the thing
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: is they got deep pockets still find a coach. Some
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: coach is gonna be drooling to get that job, b
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: that's for sure. So we'll see how that plays out.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: But like I said, we got six games here tonight
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: on the pitching side, I mean, it does look interesting.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: We got two dudes up at the top here today
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: that are outstanding. Now, I will say, just coming out
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: the gate, I like Sanchez more on FanDuel I like
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: Schlitler more on DK. I mean, but they're one A,
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: they're one B. I mean, they're hard to argue either one.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: I would give just a slight upside for the simple
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: fact I'm getting a thousand cheaper a salary on Schlitzler.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: And I do prefer the matchup against the Red Sox
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: than I do for the strikeouts against the Nationals, So
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: I think that for me is definitely play. So I
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: think both of them, too, are guys that I'm gonna
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: be looking at. But I really think the most popular
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: guy today, possibly on DK, is gonna be Gossman. I mean,
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: sitting there at eighty five hundred. He gets a match
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: up against Texas. I think he's gonna be pretty popular,
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: So I think he's gonna be pretty popular on both
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: sites actually, in my opinion. And then you've got Connor Early,
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: who's up there at AK. It gets a Yankees team.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: I'm not really sure I want to fool with that.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: The dude just doesn't doesn't seem to have the control
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: we want at this point. But yeah, I mean I
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: think Gossman's gonna be the guy a lot of people
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: are gonna go to. I think doptos are gonna like Gosman,
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: So I think he's a player. I do like him
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: over on FanDuel. But I mean, Schlitler and Sanchez been
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: pretty damn good here in recent times. I mean Schlittler's
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: last time out, he had four points, so you know,
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: I what was at thirteen strikeouts? I mean that definitely
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: could be his you know, one time a year ceiling
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: type game, which more likely is so. But yeah, I
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: mean Schlittler for me, is definitely guy that I think
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: I can rely on a little bit more than Sanchez.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: Sanchez is really good against lefties, and we know he's
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: gonna neutralize the best bats that Washington have. Art is
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: from the left side, so that definitely helps there. But
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: I just don't like the rest of the strikeouts we
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: got over there. But what are you thinking here with
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: those guys there over today? But I mean, hey, these
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: two dudes at the top are both been pretty good
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: so far this year.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't have a lot of arms, so the
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: quantity isn't huge, but there's quality up top for sure,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: as you mentioned, so I see it pretty similarly. Schlitler
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: and Sanchez too, like elite DFS arms for sure. Sanchez,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: outside of Misowski, probably the second best picture in baseball
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: this season, and he's expensive, but we much rather pick
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: on the Nationals with a left hander. Interestingly enough, really
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: good hitting weather in both spots for Sanchez and Schlitler.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: That's why I'm kind of with you. Goussman's my number one.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: The price is just too good, the matchup's good, not
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: that like it would be shocking if Texas got to
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: him here. He got destroyed his last start. But I
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: like Goussman. He's a pros pro. I like him to
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: bounce back here at home soft matchup against Texas, and
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: then it's tough to siding between chance, Sanchez and Schlitler.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: I like both of them a lot. If I had
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: salary to play both of them, I don't have to
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: play Gousman, but just gonna be tough to spend twenty
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: two K total on starting pitching here. I think it's
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: those three guys. I think Early is pretty solidly and fourth.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: If he's coming off his best start of the year,
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: and I like his stuff. He's got good arm talent.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: Just don't like him more than the other three guys.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: If I liked an expensive stack and needed a cheaper pitcher,
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: I would have no problem playing him. I just don't
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: think that that's how it's gonna play out tonight, So
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: I'll rank them. Goussman, I'm with you, Splitler just because
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: of the price tag.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: Ben Sanchez been early, Yeah, I mean I've been on
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: Schlittler so much. It seems like I've been It seems
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: like I've been playing the most of his start. Sanchez too,
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: it seems like I've been there. But yeah, I do
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: like the discount you get on Gossman, especially over there
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: on FanDuel. I think that comes in big, and then
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: you know, when we start dropping down a little bit,
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: it it kind of gets scary. I mean, we got
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: fastball Freddy sitting there at home against the Cubs. For one,
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: he's on the Mets. I already don't like his win chance,
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: so you know that's one in two. He was got
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: awful his last time out. He gave up ten damn iarmruns.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: I left that boy out to dry like I mean
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: ten Aaron Ron's you don't see that shit that often
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: two innings, two point two innings, So I mean that's uh,
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: that's definitely alarming. In the two starts before, he wasn't
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: really good. So he hasn't been good for almost a
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: month now, So I think that is is kind of
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: concerning for me. With Peralta, especially he's down seventy five hundred.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: They're just begging you to play Peralta. I think just
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: the common casual baseball fan be like, oh, Freddy Peralta
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: gets some strikeouts. Yeah. Well, he's also like been a
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: freaking kickball pitcher his last few few times out, So
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: he's a little worrisome for me. Mackenzie Gore, I think
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: is uh. I mean, I just don't like the fact
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: he's gonna end up seeing all these righties on the
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: Blue Jays. I mean, he's his walk percentages are not
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: really that. He's at a nine percent walk percentage of
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: the right size, fourteen percent to the left side. He
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: is getting buriled up about nine percent to both sides. Uh.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: He isn't getting too many ground balls, so I mean
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: thirty one thirty twenty eight percent fly ball rate to
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: the right side. You know, I just I kind of
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: worry a little bit about Gore. I think that's something too.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: And then we know too the Blue Jays really don't
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: have too many strikeouts. Now. The interesting one dropping down
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: here for me is is Matt Boyd. I think Boyd's
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: interesting here against the Mets, like it's the Mets. We've
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: been picking on the Mets for quite some time here,
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: so I think Boyd is a guy I could get
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: on board with here easily, especially at his price. At
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: seventy two hundred, Boyd gossmy combo, I think wouldn't be bad.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: If you want to pay up and get one of
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: the two studs, I think you can do that as well.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: Boyd's been out since May. I mean he had he
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: had a knee injury. His last rehab start, I saw
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: he went sixty pitches, so I mean he looked good
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: coming out the gate, so I think he's he's in there.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: And I think the other guy even the pool down
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: here as well, is my boy here from the Tigers, Melton.
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: I mean, meltains look really good. He doesn't have the
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: k rate you want. I mean, he just isn't giving
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: up any runs. I mean, he's just a good picture.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: He's got a great ground ball rate. He's gonna get
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: you some outs at his price, gets a Houston team,
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: So I mean he is a slight favorite here tonight.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: I think he's in a decent spot. Is k props
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: isn't bad sitting at four and a half. I think
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: I could live with that. So, you know, I don't
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: like what we're looking at as far as you know,
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: upside from Meultain, but I think he's He's definitely somebody
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: i'd still kind of leave in my pool after that.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: I think Amaya and Cavelly, I mean, maybe you could
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: go down that far if you really wanted to. I'm
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: not really too interested in Cavelly. I mean it's kind
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: of hard to play him against a really good Philly team.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: I mean am I I think's interesting. I mean he
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: had a pretty big game. His last time out was
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: last two out of three starts eleven k's, he did
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: have one, and then he had eight k's, So I
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: mean the strikeouts are there. I could see myself wanting to,
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: uh to maybe pick on some of the some of
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: the tigers here tonight. So I think we got a
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: lot of options down below, which is I think gonna
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: entice people not to play some of these guys at
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: the top. And just the more I talk about it, Matt,
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: I think I like the guys more at the top
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: now as I think about it talking down the list,
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: because there are some guys I think you can play
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: that are relevant here today, especially on a short six
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: game slate that we have, so kind of looking at way,
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: I think roster construction will work out if it's easy
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: to jam in, you know, one of these two top
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: two guys and maybe I you know, kind of back
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: off that thought as much. But if it's kind of
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: you're stretching a little bit and you want it, you know,
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: Gossman's your answer. I think moving up to a guy
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: like Schlitler or a guy like Sanchez and making some
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: unk to b bat decision might get you there, because
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: one of those guys at the top definitely have the
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: skill set to get us one of those oh shit,
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: we need that picture type game here. So it's an
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: interesting pitching slate really, I mean, as you walk down
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: and look at it, I don't want nothing to do
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: with Gallen. I'm not interested in really McGreevy, but yeah,
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: I mean them guys down at the bottom, I think
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: are and play. What do you think?
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So for me it's just one guy. It's definitely
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: Emi like he projects better than every pitcher on this
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: slate basically, but the top guys like right there with Peralta.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Peralta is a little bit better. But I don't trust
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: Parolta at all right now. I don't really want to
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: pick on the Cubs. Am I twenty six and a
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: half percent strikeout rate, His era looks awful, but his
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: expected era is like a run and a half lower.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: It's risky for sure, but I just think he's better
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: than that price tag and it's more than just like,
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: I think he's a better DFS pitcher than every picture
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: on this slate outside of you know, goring Up probably,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: But I don't like the spot for Gore Paralta this
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: year is oh just a rough go. Paralta's just had
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: a rough go of it this year. Maybe it's the
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: Mets thing. I know, you hate the Mets, so you know,
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: Paralta might feed might be in the same boat as you,
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: just hating the Mets, wanting to get anywhere away from
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: the Mets as he can, and I'm sure he's on
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: the block.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: You can imagine being on that team.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: Oh gosh, h yeah, what a what a disaster and
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: they got names too, they're paying guys. Just a disaster
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: and you're in New York.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: You gotta deal with that damn New York media. Like
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: listen to that fucking mad Dog guy. Yea, I'd be like, dude,
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to have me a freakin' I mean,
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: it's got it would just go down. But yeah, I.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Thought I was gonna say all about Luis Robert being there,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: who seems like the perfect fit for the Mats. I
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: wonder when he's going to be back.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I need that dude to do something in a
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: damn career so I can get rid of this damn
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: baseball card up here. His just pretty valuable. But either way,
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: I mean, am I too. You look at it man Outman.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: I was looking at if Outman's in there. That dude sucks. Man.
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: He's like forty six percent k raight, So that's a
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: good couple two three k's. You got Torkolsen who's thirty
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: three percent, Carpenters thirty two percent, So you know, I
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: mean some of these Bett Riley Green. We know he
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: was a walking sombrero last year too, so you know
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: he's at twenty six percent. There's definitely some CA's to
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: be had in that, uh, in that Tiger lineup. So
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: I think am I for me is one of my favorite. Now,
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: if we break them all down here and I had
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: to say, like in my order that h, I think
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: I think I would probably like I said, I think
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: I would want to play one of the to because
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: I don't think they're gonna be as popular as they
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: should be. So I think I might want to be
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: overboard on either Sanchez or Schlittler. I do like Schlitler
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: more on DK, but I like Sanchez more on FanDuel.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: And then I think, uh, I think I'd have to
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: roll out with Gossman and then am I are my
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: other guys that I'd look at. And then, like I said,
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: Boyd Melton, I think are and play if you want
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: to stretch out your pitching pool. But I mean, I
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: think am My and Gosman you can pretty much get
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: whatever bats you want if you go there. You know what,
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: I I'm gonna guess that probably be the more popular
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: pairing today. I think it's gonna be pretty popular. But
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: that's what I kind of think. Paying up is a
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: good is a good thing, but a lot of options
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: in pitching.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: You think in my you think in my Gousan's gonna
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: be the popular combo.
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: I think it could be very popular. Yeah, I mean,
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying it's gonna be the cash game, but
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: you get some tournament types and people are gonna want
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: to you know, they get they want to get some bats.
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: It just seems like in tournaments people aren't paying up
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: for pitching in recent times as they were in the past.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: And maybe that's just my own thing because I do
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: go back generally and look back at contests and look
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: at see what's winning, you know, what was in the
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: top ten every day, and go back and take a peek,
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: and I mean there hasn't been really the top end
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: pitching generally, it seems, I mean this year more it's
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: just been like middle of the road, like seven K,
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: e K guy, nine K guys, you know, especially on
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: a FanDuel.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: But yet no, Yeah, I don't know, because I'm not
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: I think Goussman definitely just because that price tag stands out.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: I know, people really like to play Sanchez. That's why
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: I'm a little bit surprised that you don't think it's
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: going to be him. Am I so cheap? I'm not sure.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: I don't know how much salary you need if that's
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: gonna be like too much salary. So I almost think
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: that people who play in my might go to Sanchez
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: to pair with him, and you might get like lower
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: ownership on Goussman if you play him with am I
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean?
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, That's why I kind of like to
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: fool with, you know how the roster construction goes, Like
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: I always think, like, what's the first three clicks everybody's
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: gonna make? You know, boom boom boom? What's left? You
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: know what am I working with? How can I beat
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: you with? What's working? You know what? I'm laugh with.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: But yeah, so I think that's uh definitely interesting. But
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: uh yeah, so your top pitcher, you got a Gosman,
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: and then who you got after Gosman.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: I'll say it's Goussman. For me, it's the four guys,
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: some combination of Goussman and then Sanchez Schlitler, am I
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: like obviously I like the all those other guys more
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: than am I, But am I so cheap? So if
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: I need a cheaper guy, it's in my for me,
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: I think is the best way to put it. The
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: top three guys and then if I need a cheaper guy.
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: In my yeah, I like that. I think that works
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: out good. But it is interesting today. As you mentioned,
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: I didn't even notice. The slate literally goes off within
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: an hour and five minutes each each other. Yeah, and
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: maybe the good thing is at seven forty five, we'll
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: get these games over with so I can pay attention
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: to watch some soccer here tonight and not pay attention.
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: I've been having fun watching some World Cup. I got
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: a funny feeling about this World Cup. I think we're
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: gonna get maybe the final four. Maybe. I think that
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: would be pretty damn cool. I mean, I think I
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: think this country is ready for something like that. We
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: need something that gets all together, get us all cheer
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: and have some fun here in this next few weeks.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: So I think the team US I think they got
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: a really get shot, especially seeing the couple teams they
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: get by Mosala in Egypt there in round sixteen round
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: I think we get to the round eight, and who
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: knows what could happen, so good times there. But we
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: got these games starting at six forty. So we got
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: the Houston Astros and the Tigers coming right out the
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: gate six forty. We got a little wind blown out
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: to left field. I see seventy nine degrees. It should
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: be a nice day out here in Detroit. It has
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: been nice. They were saying there could be some some
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: some weather issues earlier today it looks like it kind
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: of split around us. But uh yeah, pretty good hitting
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: weather here. We got a bunch of left He's gonna
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: be facing AMAI, which is the stronger side for the
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: Tigers here. I mean, Dingler's been hitting the ball really well.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: He's about the only righty. I think you might see Torkosen. Yeah,
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: Torkulssen's in there. But uh yeah, I mean I think
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna leave the Tigers alone. But I will say
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: I think they are a pretty good leverage kind of spot.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: They can put up some runs, they can hit some homers.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: It is a great good conditions today to hit the ball.
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: So I think if Amaya is gonna get twenty some percent,
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: maybe ownership, I don't mind to see, you know, some
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: of these lefties here for the Tigers, So I think
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: it's a decent It's a decent leverage spot if you
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: want it, that can get you there. So yeah, I
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: think that would be in play. As far as the
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: Houston bats against Melton, we know we don't really have
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: too many strikeouts. Jordan Alvarez is always in play. I mean,
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: dude's the best hitter in baseball. I just don't really
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: like the full stack against Melton. But I mean i'd
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: have the Tigers down my list. I'm not going after
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: any of these Tigers to where you know I'm gonna
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: be playing them on two or three teams, but I
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: could see somebody talking me into using him for some leverage.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm more or less agree with you here. Like
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: smaller slate, so everything's gonna be in play to a degree.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: I think I might like Houston a little bit more
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: than you, but just like I think they have upside here.
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: It's not really that I will really want to go
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: out of my way to pick on Melton because I
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: think he's fine. Just that smaller slate so less opportunity costs. Houston,
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: we know is a good offense. They're coming off a
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: tough series in Toronto where they actually hit pretty well.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: So I think Houston's fine, and I also think Detroit's
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: fine because they're gonna be lower owned, and especially if
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: in my picks up ownership because I like him because
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: he's so cheap and he has strikeout upside. But he's
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: not like a top of the line, like top of
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: the rotation MLB arm by any means, He's like a
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: mid to back end rotation guy that just has strikeout upside.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I got no issues with Detroit. I mean,
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: lower owned teams on slates like this, ownership is gonna
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: be concentrated. You could definitely talk me into either side here,
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: you know, for a little bit different reasons. But I
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: think the ownership on Detroit is probably gonna be lower,
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: low enough where they look good.
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean they got some bats that can get
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: the you know, I don't like the bottom three in
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: that lineup, McKinstry, Outman, and Lee. I'm not all that
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: big on, but yeah, I think I think they're definitely
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: in play now. The next game we have here, I
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: do like, I mean, we got some Phillies. I think
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: Phillies bats here against Kate Cavali is interesting. I know
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: caval he is a mid ground ball lean type pitcher.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: He does give up almost twenty six percent fly ball
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: rate seven percent six seven percent higher than he does
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: to the right side. So he's awesome. Been getting bailed
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: up a little bit by some brighties so far this year.
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: His wOBA against lefties is three point fifty five. I mean,
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: we know, Kyle Schwarber. I mean, this dude is just
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: seeing the ball so well so far this year. I
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: mean he's like he's hitting the fucking beach ball. I mean,
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: this dude's unbelievable. I really think he could get over
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: sixty homers if he could get on a good stretch
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: here coming up here in the next six weeks or so,
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: you know, he could have a couple of big games.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: I think he could. He could be in play. But
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: we're gonna start get start getting into where people are
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: gonna start walking his ass. But I mean with Harper
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: behind him, I mean it does help a little bit.
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: Harper's been pretty good recent times. His wOBA against righty's
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: is four thirty four, and he got mar sitting behind
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: him at a three eighty nine. The bottom part of
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: that lineup is just kind of got When you got
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: this Ricconi's guy justin Crawford. You know, I just don't
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: like the bottom part of the lineup. I think the
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: top half is definitely in play for me against Cavali,
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: I do. I do like that. As far as the
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: Washington bats, No, thanks, man, I'm not picking against Sanchez.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: I I mean, there's just there's just no reason to
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: even go there. No, not even I don't even I
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: just I don't like it. I know you can say,
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: you know, with six games, every team would be in play,
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: but if I'm gonna cross off one, it's gonna be
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: it's gonna be the Nats tonight.
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not stacking the Nats here. Look like, if
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: I were playing one fifty, I wouldn't like x them
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: out of my pool on sabersim, but you know I
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: wouldn't as someone who am builds, I'm not gonna be
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: playing Nats. So that's the best thing I can put it.
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: I'm with you, why pick on Sanchez, one of the
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: best pitchers in baseball and just not interested Philly though, Yeah,
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: Cavally is just a run of the middle type of guy.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: In my opinion, Philly looks good here and they're expensive,
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: so that might cut into their ownership. It does seem
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: like the type of slave ownership is pretty flat all over.
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: I'm not even sure who the highest owned team's gonna be. Like,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: there are good spots all over the board, so I'm
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: not even sure ownership matters tonight as far as like
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: going into this slate building, it probably won't land like that.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: Some team will be chocky. I'm just not sure who
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: it is right now. So Philly, I think they probably
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: have the highest ceiling of any team on the board.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: They're expensive, but I don't think they'll be owned as such.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: So I'm definitely interested. If I were making one lineup
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: right now, I think Philly would be wildly in contention.
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean playing Schwarber and you know, guys like
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: and even Harper so far, I mean, Schwarber has just
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: been so good. Yeah, it's it's it is fun to
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: play some Phillies. I agree. I mean, then you get
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: the get that ninth inning at bat to you know,
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: it's eighty seven degrees there, wind blown out, so definitely
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: some decent hitting weather. So so I like that. But
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think as we get through these offenses,
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: we're gonna see there's some there's some decent offenses we
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: could have. Now this next one here Texas and Toronto
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: looks like there may be a little bit of a
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: chance of some rain from what I'm seeing here, I
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: don't think it's too overwhelming where we need to worry
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: about it all that much. You got McKenzie Gore against
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: the Blue Jays, you know, I mean, he's been walking
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: quite a few lefties, but he ain't gonna see what
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: you might see, Lucas. That's it. I mean, he's he
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: has been walking nine percent of righties. His ground ball
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: rates a little low, flyball rates a little higher to
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: the right side. I think some people may end up
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: playing Mackenzie Gore. I don't mind the Toronto bats here.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: Just to pick on Gore, I think you could. I
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: think you could do that. I don't really want to
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: pick on Gossman at all, but just knowing that he's
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: probably going to be uh to be high owned. If
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: you wanted to go against I don't mind if you're
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: fading them. If you wanted to look at one of
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: these lefties that's got some power with the Rangers, you know,
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: like a Jack Peterson, maybe a uh Cory Seeger. If
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: you want to go there, Nimo. I think what could
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: be interesting maybe is like a one off type play
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: if you wanted to do that. But uh, yeah, I
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: mean I think the blue Jays are interesting. Just to
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: pick on Mackenzie Gore a little bit, I do think
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: he's gonna get some ownership. But yeah, I mean I
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: don't love the Blue Jays, but I have him. I'd
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: keep him in my pool.
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm with you this game For me though, like
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: I'm playing one lineup, I don't think I get to
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: anything offensively. Gore, you know, is hit or miss. So
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: that's what makes him like an intriguing option at seventy
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: three hundred because if he has his best stuff here,
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: he's too cheap. But he off time doesn't and Toronto,
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: we know, is a good offense that'll make a picture
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: of work. So yeah, I don't know. For me, like
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: two bottom tier stacks tonight, Texas's role on this plate
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: is just leverage off the Gousman. And I'll just say
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: that if Gousman ends up being like forty fifty, and
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: he might be because of his price tag on a
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: slate with other good options, just means Texas is more
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: in play. So just something to keep an eye on,
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: you know, projections seeing where Gousman's ownership lies before the
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: slate starts. Uh yeah, I'm sure the roof will be
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: closed here, so don't have to worry about that weather
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: and uh mostly pitching for me in this game, I.
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: Think, Yeah, I didn't know if they'd have that roof
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: open there or not. Yeah, you're right on that one, donkey.
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: But either way, the next game I think is interesting.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: We got Mets and Cubbies. You know, I think something
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: might be wrong with Pralta. Maybe old man age is
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: catching up to his ass. But I think you know,
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: fastball Freddie, as I like to call him, guy, likes
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: to rear back and just fire fastballs. He's got a
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: cubby team PCA has been hitting out of the world.
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: I mean, the dude's been smashing the shit out of
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: the baseball here recent times. You know, Freddy's ISO is
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: not good against lefties, as wOBA is not good. Ground
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: ball rates a little bit lower. His ground ball rate
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: is decent to the right side, not so much, it's
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: kind of borderline the left side. Twenty five percent fly
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: ball rate to the left side. He's been getting hit hard.
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: I think we can pick on Freddy here. Freddy got
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: had got smashed last time out, gave up ten runs. PCA.
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: Bush we always I like Bush Halp. I think you
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: know they're all in play for me. I think the
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: Cubbies I would probably put. I don't have them as
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: my favorite stack, but I probably have him in like
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: maybe third or fourth. I probably got him in the
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: same bucket I got Philly.
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: Actually, okay, I could see that. I don't know what
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: to make up. Paralta, like you feel like he should
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: be way better than he is, and coming into this
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: season he was a freaking really good arm, like top tier,
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: top of the rotation type arm, not an elite ace,
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: but like a number one for sure, and now he
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: just he just hasn't been good this year. So the
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: Cubs all of a sudden red hot scored ten runs
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: in each of the games yesterday. Dan Swanson at the
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: bottom of that lineup. He's got fifteen RBIs in this
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: series so far, which is insane. PCA. As you mentioned,
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: hottest inter in baseball. Yeah, I like the Cubs here.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: I would have no arguments if you told me you
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: like them as your favorite stack, which it sounds like
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: you might. I don't know if I like them over Philly,
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: but I think they're in the same tier for sure.
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean the last game we're gonna talk about
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: is actually two of my favorite two teams. So well, well,
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: that's why I was gonna reserve. I think I like
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: those two teams. I mean, picking against Zach Gallon obviously
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: is fun, so I'm not gonna probably give up that opportunity.
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: But we'll get to that game here. Next is that
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: one is the late one at seven forty five. So,
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: like we said, we get a little early finish here tonight,
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: but we'll move on with this Boston and Yankee game.
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: We got Schlitler on the mound. I don't really have
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: any interest in any of the Red Sox, don't. I
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: don't really want to go there. And then we got
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: the lefty early on the hit on the bump for Boston.
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: I'd much rather play the Yankees against the righty early
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: strikeout percentage twenty five percent to the rights. I left
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: side twenty almost twenty two percent. He does get in
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: trouble walking some righties. He's almost at ten percent. He's
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: been getting barreled up at about an eleven eleven percent rate. Here.
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: I feel like I was in this situation. What last
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: week when the Yankees were in somewhat of a reasonable
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: spot against the pitcher, maybe they could get to and
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: we were like, we don't really want the Yankees as
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: much as high because you know, they're against the righty.
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: We preferm you know, against the lefty. We perform against
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: the righty. And then I think, if I remember right,
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: the Yankees went out and nuke to Slate for like
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: twelve runs, if I remember right, So h yeah, I
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: mean as as we see here, you know he even
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: knows are easy. Don's easy. I can't say that all
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: that well, sorry about that Goldie as a lefty masher,
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: that is for sure. So definitely for me, some of
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: these Yankees are in play. I mean, he got Dominga
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: is gonna get bumped up there. Rosario, i'd guess is
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: gonna be a pinch hit risk. But uh yeah, I
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: mean Goldie up in that leadoff spot. I think he'd
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: be a guy too that I could play as a
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: one off. That might be a little bit different, but yeah,
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: I think I think the Yankees would be in play.
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: I just don't have them up in my like top five.
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: But I'd leave him in my pool if I was
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: going deep.
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel you. On the Yankees, They're tough to
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: ever be like, No, I'm not playing them because even
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: without Judge, they've been really good, really good hitting weather
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: in this ballpark. We know games between these teams can
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: get weird, especially in this park, So the Yankees are
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: right up there, man. Like I also like the Cardinals
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: and d Backs a lot because McGreevy is one of
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: my favorite PA pitchers to pick on, and we know
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: about Gallon, so we'll get there. But yeah, I think
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: the upside here is really high. Better hitting weather here
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: than in Saint Louis, so that's something to note. At
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: least Goldie just continues to crush lefties. Obviously took schooble
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: yard twice yesterday. So Yeah, I like the Yankees. I
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: think they're right on that. Like Philly and Cubs. Tier
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: how you rank them, I think it's just a personal
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: preference thing. And then Boston, I don't like them, but
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: I think I would use Boston over Washington against Sanchez
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: if I had to choose between the two. It's probably
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: the best I can say about them.
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, i'd agree with you on that.
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: Point.
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: But I wouldn't play either. But I mean it may
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: be for somebody, just not for me. But uh, I
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: think the next game here is definitely interesting. I mean,
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: we got Arizona Saint Louis the highest total, got a
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: nine total. We got Zach Gallen back on the hill.
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: I can't believe they're gonna give this dude another shot,
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: especially after his debacle. Was the last time out against
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: the Twins. We were liking the Twins against Gallen. I
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: know they had a pretty big day against him. As
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: k rate has just been awful. He's at eleven percent
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: against the lefties, eighteen percent against the righties. Wolba's high
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: to both sides, almost four hundred to the left side,
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: three point fifty two to the right side. Mid ground
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: ball lean fly ball, uh not not a high fly
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: ball rate, but he has been getting buriled up to
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: both sides almost nine ten percent, nine percent to both sides.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: Weather Holt has been good. Burlson is really good, good
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: against right e's nowt Bar I think is in play.
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: Walker is always in play. I think the cards for me,
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: truly are my favorite stack. That bullpen behind Arizona sucks.
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: I like all the lefties of the Cards. I like Walker,
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: so I think they'd be number one for me tonight.
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: And then on the number two side, I'm gonna go
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: to the other side of this game against McGreevy because
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: he has not been good either so far this year.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: He has struggled mightily against against some of these lefties.
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: So I think for me, McGreevy is somebody that I
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: wouldn't mind picking. He is at thirteen percent krate against
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: lefties and getting barreled up at a ten percent rate
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: flyball rate a little higher left side ten the right side.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: So I think I wouldn't mind picking on McGreevy. With
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: like Corbyn Carrol Marte, I think would be in play
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: for me. Those two guys Padermo at the top of
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: that lineup. I think I could get into using those two.
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think the Cardinals really stand out. I mean,
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: it's not the Cardinals haven't been a team that I've
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: been on, you know, high it's more or less I
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: want to pick on some Zach Gallon and that bullpen
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: and that pitching staff out there in Arizona. So or so,
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: I think that's that's interesting. So give me, give me
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: some of these Cardinals bats. I think they'd be my
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: favorite stack. Then I think i'd want to jam in,
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: you know, I think I would just probably if I
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: got three teams tonight on FanDuel, which I probably am,
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: I'm probably gonna have three Cardinal stacks, and I think
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna have, you know, mix in a couple other
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: three teams, and then maybe mix in you know, maybe
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: like a Gossman in one, probably have a Schlitzer in one,
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: or a Sanchez. I like Sanchez a little more on FanDuel,
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: so I probably have Sanchez, But I can see the
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: Cardinals being in all three of my teams here tonight.
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: I think, you know, pick Gallon has been has been
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: kind of fun so far. Twelve hits last time out,
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: nine earned runs, walked, a couple of dudes. They let
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: him out there for eighty pitches. He's kind of getting
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: eighty pitches no matter how bad he does, Matt, so
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: I'm all for it. Let's pick on some Zach Gallen
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: the night. Yeah.
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: I like the Cardinals a lot. I think they're my
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: second favorite stack, but man, as Naids knows, I just
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: can't quit this Arizona team. I like it. Morgan's lefties,
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: and they were good last night against libert Tour. But
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: the thing I like most is just picking on these
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: Saint Louis starters who started the year really good from
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: like an actual standpoint, but all their numbers screen negative aggression,
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: and we've seen it from liber Tour and Lee Hee,
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: and we're starting to see it from McGreevy. You're getting
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: Arizona lineup that likely has Max Kepler in it tonight,
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: back off his suspension. He's super cheap, we know he's
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: got upside. So I like Arizona a lot here, but
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: I'm with you. I also like Saint Louis. I think
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: ownership is probably comproole with you in the two teams,
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: and I think game stack in this game is certainly
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: in play. All the guys you mentioned from the Cardinals.
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: I wish Crooks were in this lineup because he's good
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: and cheap, but it is what it is. You got
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: hitting seventh, and I just can't wait for this Arizona
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: lineup to come out because Groover went yard last night,
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: finally one of their top hitting prospects, but he usually
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: doesn't start against righties because Peven Smith is there interested
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: to see if they tweet their lineup tonight the d
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: Backs that is, and we'll go from there. But anytime
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: I see a Zach Gallan Michael McGreevy matchup, I'm interested
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: in both sides, that's for damn sure.
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I see. You know, guys in the chat, are
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: we worried about the weather. Sure, I mean we always
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: are paying attention to weather. It is the later game,
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: so but I think we'll have a pretty good idea, yeah,
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: you know, in the middle of these I mean it
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: might be a little bit after six forty five, but
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: I think we'll have a pretty good idea if it's
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: at least gonna start on time. So yeah, I mean,
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: if they got I always say get on an MLB up.
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: You can see where I'll say warm up like ten
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: to fifteen minutes before the game start. At least give
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: you an idea that teams are out in the field.
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: So I usually like to do that. Yeah, a little
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: bit of weather concerned, but you know what, that might
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: take some people off these games as far as ownership
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: goes too, So definitely that will help us out.
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: It definitely will. And honestly, right now, like I don't
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: I'm not a weatherman. I don't pretend to be one.
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: That's why it's tough to answer questions like that so
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: far away from the slate starts. I think, as of
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: right now, like you could make a case to just
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: fade the game because there's other good spots and whether
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: it could be an issue here, But I also think
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: to your point, like you don't have to fade it,
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: and I think people might get off it. So for
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: that alone, like maybe I'm a little bit more interested
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: because of that. So yeah, fun slate in that regard,
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: waiting for an update from Roth. I was just mentioned
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: in the chat, so we'll see what happens. Still three
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: hours still that game, So I don't know as of
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: right now, I could see it playing out both ways,
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: and usually like on big slates, and this is just
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: a personal preference, risk tolerance type thing. When there's like
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: a really bad weather spot and a lot of other
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: games to go to, I'll normally just fade the weather spot,
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: you know, playing three, four or five lineups. I don't
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: think TONIGHT'SID that's that night. Like, I'll only fade this
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: game if I'm really really confident it's not gonna play
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: because I like it that much, and there aren't that
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: many other options, you know what I mean?
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean Roscott at Oranges kid Lightning says here,
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: but I mean he'll update it there. But the thing is,
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: like I was looking to you at a couple others,
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: so I was saying it was like low forty chance
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: throughout the night. So I got a feeling like if
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: it if, if it looks good, it's gonna start. I'd
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: have a pretty good vibe it'll probably get through. But
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: I mean, but if it looks like it may be
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: in the delay, then uh yeah, that might hinderrea.
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: Probably the only time Arizona goes to Saint Louis this
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: year also and give a series, so they're probably inclined
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: to get this game into your point.
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that does matter. I mean, if it's
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: the Division games, you know they'll be back. They'll be like,
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: as screw it, we can wait next month when we
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: come through whatever else. So yeah, them West Coast teams,
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: any of these East Coast coming back and forth, they
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: don't want to fool with that. We've kind of seen it.
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: Later in the y're like, oh, we got to make
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: up a game and the team's got to travel across
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: country because they're in the playoff race and then they
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: got to travel again. Like none of them want to
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: do that shit, so they'll try to jam it in
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: and get it over with. So I think that that
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: that's interesting. But yeah, so we'll have to keep our
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: eyes on that one obviously as the night goes through.
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: But definitely something. I mean, you could leave a team
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: and maybe you could pivot off of it if you
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: get you know, after the slate starts, and maybe you
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: could you know, you could go and ride out a
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: Yankee stack or a Cubby stack here tonight if you
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: want to wait an extra you know, half hour twenty
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: five minutes to see, you know, what comes of it.
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: So I don't mind that. I mean, like we kind
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: of wish we'd have a little bit later. If it
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: was in Arizona, Wed you know, it would be nine
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: o'clock start, might be a little bit a little bit different,
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: but we'll have to see how it goes. If it
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: is going. I think both teams for me are definitely
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: play I'd have Carrot Cardinals one, d Backs two. Then
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: I think I'd probably be looking at, you know, the
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: combination of like Cubs, Philly uh In in that range.
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: I think they'd be in play. But yeah, for me,
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: if this Arizona Saint Louis game goes, those those two
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: of my favorites. How you got them ranked?
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: I got them ranked like you do. So if that,
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: presuming that game plays, I got Arizona one, Saint Louis too.
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: After that, it's kind of a mess for me, Like
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: I I don't know, like the weather in this game
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: is tripping me out because it's gonna have to completely
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: change the way I build this slate out if that
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: game is a mess. So I'm hoping that game plays
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: because I obviously like it a lot with you. After that,
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: I think it's Philly, Houston, Cubs, Yankees. All four of
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: those look pretty damn similar.
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. I think they all got upside, that
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: is for sure. But so let's just throw out we'll
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: throw out a home run call. I know we're on
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: at forty four minutes. Usually we're like, we only got
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: six games. We'll throw out a home run call. We'll
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: give a last final thought, and then we'll dive into
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: the slate, finish building our lineups and draft us up
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: some winners. But who you got for home run calling?
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: What do you got here? For any final thoughts.
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a resk and go with that that
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: Arizona game, and I'm gonna go with the guy I
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: talked about earlier, Max Kepler going yard in his first game.
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: We're seeing the ball really well on all his rehab
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: stuff now much lower level, so take it with a
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: grain of salt, but the spot could not be better
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: for him in his first game of these of the season.
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: Any final thoughts of the slate.
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: Just at the Arizona game, like the weather looms so
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: that stinks. We haven't had a ton of those this year,
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: but just to pay attention and hopefully we get a
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: good update because as of right now, I could see
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: the case for going heavy on it ownership reasons and
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: then just fading it because might not play.
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: I am going to say, as my home run guy
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: here tonight, the guy that I love to hate the most,
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: Bryce Harper. I think Harper hits a home run here tonight.
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: I'd say Schwarber, but y'all tell me that's too easy.
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: Schwarber's got a forty one percent fly ball rate, so
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: he can definitely get the ball up near off Cavali,
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: so I think he'd being played too, But I think
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: Harper is gonna get the job done for us here
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: tonight and for me. As you said, you know, we'll
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: have to keep an eye on the weather. Be in
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: the discord. If anybody's got anything, our discord's great for that.
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: So get over in that discord. Anybody here's anything or
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: got any inside. Maybe we can call cousins or uncles
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: or friends or family that's over there in Missouri and
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: give us a give us you know what they feel.
