• 1:07
  Speaker 2: We're gonna be going through this. I'm gonna go through
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: the pitchers, my favorite pitchers, my favorite stacks, and then
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: some of the favorite one offs that we have. Let's
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: start with the pitching today, which pitching for me, it's
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: pretty clear cut. We got a couple guys we're gonna
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: want to play on the front end, and then not
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: many guys down there on the back end that we're
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: gonna want to play. But let's start with my sp
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: one on today's slate. It's none other than mister of Crochet.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: Garrett Crochet been absolutely dealing this year. Now he gets
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: to take on this Twins team who just quite frankly
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: hasn't been very good against left handed pitching on the season,
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: just three home runs and two hundred and thirty four
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: play appearances, twenty seven percent strikeout rate, seven percent ball
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: walk rate, which is not very good. Garrett Crochet, lock
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: and load him into your lineups. He's gonna be a
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: great play today. He is my SP one on the
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: day slate. Looking up for me would be Jacob deGrom
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: ninety five hundred. I have him ranked slightly higher than
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Freddy Peralta, who Peralta is ten to two. But Jacob
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: deGrom would be SP two for me, today's second best option.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: Carved up the Athletics last week or earlier this week.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: Six innings, zero runs, seven k's on only sixty five pitches.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: So you know, with twenty twenty five more pitches could
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: have gotten obviously a lot more Draft Kings points, but
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: finished with or twenty nine Draft Kings points on sixty
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: five pitches.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Would love to see more of that.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: That game was kind of out of hand, so that's
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: why I think that he got pulled early. Now gets
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: to take on this Mariner's team, who Mariners team is
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: pretty good. Last night I had me s Patrick Corbyn.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: You know, Mariners struggle against lefties and they did not
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: do very well. I think it's going to be more
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: of the same today taking on Jared Jacob de Grom,
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: he is my second ranked pitcher. Number three for me
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: would be Showtuckmonaga Imanaga taking on this Brewers team who'd
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: just been downright abysmal this weekend. Imanaga has been pretty
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: solid on the season. This brew crew kind of middle
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: of the pack as it relates to playing against lefties.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: But Imanaga nine thousand, Uh, don't hate that. We've seen.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: We've seen the twenty a couple of twenty point games
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: out of him.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: I think he can get up in there again today.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: But Imanaga would be my third ranked pitcher on the
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: day's slate. Number four for me is kind of a
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: kind of my sneaky, sneaky pick if you will, Tanner
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: Tanner Bibby Bibby, however you want to say his name,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: Tanner Biby, I like him. Seventy eight hundred dollars gets
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: to take on this Jay's team just doesn't hit many
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: home runs. Not a very team and not not a
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: team that we think that's gonna take you dep too often.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: And yeah, looking looking at they don't strike out a
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: whole time. That's why I don't have him ranked higher.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: But at seventy eight hundred dollars, I think he's a
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: great play.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: Don't mund him as number four? Then I mentioned him earlier.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Number five for me would be would be fastball Freddy.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: Freddy Peralta gets to take on this Cubbies team. He's
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: striking out twenty seven percent of batters at home. It's
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: just this Cubs team. If you just look up and
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: down this lineup. A, they don't strike out. B. They
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: have weapons of mass destruction up and down this lineup.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: They're capable of going for eight, ten, twelve, fourteen runs. Uh.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: So that's why Freddy for me would be number five.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: Look at some of these guys down down lower, I
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: just don't see myself playing any of these guys. So, yeah,
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: it's those top five guys for me, and that's where
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: I'll focus my draft kings and certainly my FanDuel where
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: it's only one pitcher site.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: So let's move over to the bats.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Obviously, if you're playing some high end bats, we got
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: to find some some stacks that aren't going to be expensive.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: My my number one rank stack on today's slate would
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: be the Stros, who I'm showing here I like paying
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: at the top of the lineup. Al Tuove Christian Walker
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: batting third today. Obviously was still no still no Alvarez
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: who missed yesterday. We got peek Barry Bonds. Jake Myers
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: batting in the seventh hole today. You gotta love that
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: after the performance he had yesterday. But these Stros would
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: be my number number one team taking on some guy
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: named Bryce Wilson. Bryce Wilson not very good, so let's
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: lock and load these Astros my top drank stack of
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: the day. Number two for me in game one would
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: be these New York Metropolitans taking on Eric Fatti wap
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: fourteen percent k red as you see there at home
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: this year. Give me these, give me these, Give me
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: these Mets as my second rank stack today. Love them all,
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: but really like Winker Torrens McNeil right there, five six seven.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: Don't mind that pairing right there at All Mets would
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: be number two for me.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Number three for me would be these o's.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: These Orioles. Love these orioles today taking on Michael Lorenzen.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: Can't strike out left handed hitters, so give me this
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: left handed power up there, Seti Gunner, Adlee O'Hearn. I mean,
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: the list goes on and on. Jackson Holiday, give me
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: those lefties. This Maverick Handley guy men Price on both sides.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: If you want to do a little reaching around stack
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: with him, don't. Don't hate that as well. But those
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: o's would be my third third rank stack. Closely behind
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: them would be the bow Sox, Boston Red Sox taking
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: on Chris Paddock. Not very good anymore, Chris Paddock, that is.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: Rafiel Dever's just carving up right handed pitching at home.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Give me him.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: Give me some durn Bregman pretty solid over the last
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: fifteen days. Christian Campbell back and clean up today. You
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: gotta love that, love this lineup. Just looking at this lineup, man,
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: it's it's one through nine for me. If anything, the
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: catcher Narvaiaz don't like Carlos Narvaias.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Give me give me one through.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Nine minus minus the catcher there. I think this Red
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: Sox really pop off today on today's slate and then
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: two other ones. I think a low owned do I
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: think you'll get some low on Cardinals today. I think
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: you're gonna get some low on Cardinals in this in
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: this first matchup to get to take on your boy
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: blade Tidwell.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Give me some low on Cardinals.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: Today all subs six and a half percent over there
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: on DK. Give me some Cardinals as the low own,
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: and then I like these value bats over here for
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: the raise gets to take.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: On Will Warren?
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Who Will Warren as the last time out against the
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: I believe it was the O's that he played earlier
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: in the week. Yeah, I just couldn't get it done
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: on seventy two pitches, gave up a bomb, four un runs,
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: got that short porch over there in in in New York.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: So yeah, give me these rays. Value rays steal bases.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: They don't they don't hit a ton of bombs, but
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: they'll still get a ton of bags. I do like them.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: Obviously, make sure you're paying attention to this weather. I
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: know the Yankees had some weather earlier up and down
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: the East coast, so make sure you're paying attention to
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: that weather.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Or let's look at some of my favorite one offs.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: Uh that you're gonna want to play either either as
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: a one off or maybe in a stack. But none
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: o than Trey Turner. Great price over on FanDuel three K,
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: five K over on on DK. Trey Turner at the
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: shortstop position gets to take on the South Paul. It
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: can't strike anybody out. Eduardo Rodriguez once again, make sure
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: that the weather.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Is gonna be favorable to us. Let's look at Trey
• 8:27

• 8:31
  Speaker 1: off today. Really liked me some Trey Turner.
• 8:35
