MLB DFS Process | DraftKings & FanDuel Picks, Plays & Slate Breakdown | Thursday, 06/04/26 · Daily Fantasy Sports by Ship It Nation

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Yah, all, system's going clear.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: We left up.
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: Yo, yo, what's up everybody. We got a Thursday slate
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: of some baseball. Been a couple thursdays since Matt and
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: I got to come on here and talk some baseball,
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: a little light slates in the past weeks, but today
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: we got us a little five gamer here at the
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: night window. So I need to break it down with
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: my man, Matt. It's been a couple of days here.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: I got you twice this week, so it's been a
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: little treat here. But Matt, how's it going. How's your
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: week been, and what's your little brief overview of the
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: slate so far?
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah? Happy, we're back on here.
• 1:15
  Speaker 5: We got a Thursday slate to talk over, even if
• 1:17
  Speaker 5: it's a small one, much different pitching slate than we
• 1:21
  Speaker 5: saw yesterday. Small slate, so one of those like anything
• 1:25
  Speaker 5: goes type of slates.
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: But also we've got a regularly win game where whether there.
• 1:33
  Speaker 5: Seems really optimal for hitting and home runs, obviously we're
• 1:37
  Speaker 5: gonna have to navigate through that. One like clear top
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: pitching option and the rest pretty murky. So one great
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: hitting spot, one top tier pitcher, the rest is kind
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: of up in the air. That's how I'm seeing the slate.
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: How about yourself.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean obviously with Chris Sale, he's you know,
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: obviously firing above him being on. I mean, he doesn't
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: have the greatest strikeout matchup obviously with the Blue Jays.
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: But i mean really just kind of looking at the numbers,
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: like showta would be one of the best better pitchers
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: and dude, he's just been trash his last three starts.
• 2:14
  Speaker 6: Absolutely.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: I think he's given like twenty earned runs and like
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: six homers in his last three starts. Has not been
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: very good. But uh, yeah, I mean Chris Sale, is
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: he gonna get there? I mean, if Chris Sale was
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: on a bigger slate with some other other choices, you know,
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: Chris Sale to me would kind of be an easier
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: type fade for me to you know, to get away from.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: But do it what we're working with today. Uh, it's
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: just kind of slim on the other side to to
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: even try to keep up with Sale in a below
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: average matchup for him.
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: So right, it's like, if you're not playing Sale, who
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: are you playing? You know what I mean?
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: Like that's the thing, right, Yeah, pretty tough here, But say, hi,
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: some of the people got big little neck in here,
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: Michael w in the House, Gang Green in the House,
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: Whim in the High, Bob Juice in the House, Taco Todd, New.
• 3:04
  Speaker 6: York, Stiego in the House.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: But I want to mention something here real quick, Matt.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: I know the other show we had a I don't
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: even know what the hell it was. It was like
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: a tip or something that about a question, and I
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: overlooked it. I was on the other screen trying to,
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: you know, drive the show and do all that fun stuff,
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: and it got buried up in the comments. So I
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: do apologize to that to that viewer. But his question
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: was why do you feel, Matt, you do better on
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: short slates, smaller slates than you do larger slates. So
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: he said that you wanted to take a minute to
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: think about that, and I think that was from like
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: a previous show, and then he came back. But yeah,
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: I just want to throw that out there. Do apologize
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: that guy for missing that though.
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I hope he's watching. I think it was chokehold
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: him something like that. Appreciate you remembering. I know I
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: had mentioned on a previous show that I did with
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: I can't even remember who.
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: Last week a couple of weeks ago.
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: Just seemingly this year, I've had a bunch of success
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: on like the late slate stuff, smaller slate stuff, and uh,
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: you know, not as much on the main slate stuff.
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: And you know, as much as I, you know, have
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: looked into it, I mostly think it's just variants and
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: just that's how the cookie has crumbled for me so
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: far this season.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: Still dealing with like.
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: Smallest sample sizes, but I've always preferred smaller slates, So
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: my preference is smaller slates. I like slates of this size.
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: It's kind of been where I've had my most success always,
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: so maybe it's just something I should look at and
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: it's kind of just is what it is. But no,
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: I don't really know the exact reason, but appreciate you
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: mentioning it. Sorry we forgot to answer that question live
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: last show. Hopefully you're tuning in today.
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I've been playing DFS baseball forever. It
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: seemed like twenty twelve or something like that, and I
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: always like the smaller slates too, And I just think
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: it's because you know, there's, like you said, the variants there.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: It is many different paths to uh to to beat you.
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: You know, generally, you know, if you pick out the
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: you know, like the team that scores the most runs
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: and you stack them up in a few different ways, generally.
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: You're gonna be pretty successful.
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: But generally, on larger slates there's just so many different
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: paths and ways that you can get beat. But on
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: the smaller slates, you know, you can take more of
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: a stand and if that stand pays off. You know,
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: generally it seems like you know, if you if you
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: fade you know, the chalk or fade a chalky pitcher.
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: You know.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: I think it's just easier to uh, to navigate too
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: smaller slates because I said, they're in too many other
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: things that can come up and bite you.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: It's just you know, I feel like you could have
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: a dude hit three homers on a ten game slate,
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: and that doesn't mean that dude's gonna be on the winner.
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: Like you know what I mean like is if the
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: other and they stack them didn't do ship, it isn't
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: gonna matter unless someone played the guys a one off
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: like so a lot of times, you know, even the
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: bigger slates, you don't you don't necessarily have to have
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: that one guy like.
• 6:03
  Speaker 5: Yeah, the only thing I'd say to that is like
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: the field knows it too, so like if you take
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: a stand, like on smaller slates, the field is just
• 6:10
  Speaker 5: with you more so in some aspects, it's harder to
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: get to the top because you've got more people playing
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: what you're playing. So for me, I don't really know
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: why it is. And there have been seasons where I've
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: had more success on main slates than late slates, but
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: this season it's been kind of the other way around.
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: I hope that turns around, though, because I always.
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: Play for more money on main slates, So hoping we
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: get one tonight.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that is going to be the plan tonight. But
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: take a peek here. We got the stone pulled up here.
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: We will go through some pitching here. I mean, obviously
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: Chris Sales sitting up there with the Blue Jays, got
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: a match up here with the Jays. You know, Sales
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: at thirty two percent strikeouts against the lefties, twenty nine
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: percent against the righties.
• 6:54
  Speaker 6: Uh, isn't really that.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: Many strikeouts to be had in this Toronto lineup. Isn't
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: one that we generally chase for strikeouts. But like I said,
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: at the top. I mean, we're not working with very
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: much here today. Chris Sale is, you know, far and
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: beyond the best pitcher on the sleigh today. But I
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: can't really see a reason why to get try to
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: get too cute with him here. I think he's going
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: to be very popular today. I mean on FANDUL, I
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: think maybe he'd be a little easier because you only
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: got to pick one dude to hit, you know, if
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: you've got to pick two dudes out of this mess
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: here on DK to hit, I think that's going to
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: be a little bit more tougher in my opinion.
• 7:32
  Speaker 6: But yeah, I mean.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: After that, you got, you got shot. As I mentioned,
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: it's just not been very good. He's sitting there at
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: eighty five hundred, and then you got Wreblueski in a
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: sixteen percent strike up percentage against the Dbacks, who who
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: you know, really don't strike out against left handed pitching.
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: So I really don't like that at all either. I
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: don't mind throwing Lugo in there against a Twins team.
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: It's just like he's just not really the guy we
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: want to chase for strike. But I mean, if I'm
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: looking for a guy who maybe gets some innings for
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: me and eat up some outs and get some points.
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: I think Lugo was definitely in that consideration. Again, a
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: little scary there against the Cubs. I actually liked the Cubs.
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: As you mentioned, we got a win game sitting there.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: Then you got Jones with Pittsburgh against Houston King maybe
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: you could look at you got Parides down there with Minnesota.
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: I mean, it really isn't too much here that they
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: look at. I think Jared Jones is kind of like
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: a wild card second start of the year, highly touted prospect,
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: got hurt, came back, hasn't been all that great so
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: far in the minors. He did throw seventy seven pitches
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: his last time out, so I would assume he would
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: be in the mid eighties. I think he's kind of
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: like a wild card, kind of like I mentioned, like
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: yesterday with with Cole, it's just hard to determine where
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: these guys are at after injuries. But man, like I said, Matt,
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: after shit after sale, man, it gets pretty gets pretty
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: ugly quick. I mean, if Chota was himself that he's been,
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: you know, a couple starts prior to where he's looked
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: like shit, he would definitely be an easy pivot off
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: of Sale, that's for sure. But man, like I said,
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: this dude's in what fifteen innings, he's given up shit
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: twenty one hits, twenty earned runs, and eight homers out
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: that's like softball pitching numbers. But what do you think
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: here of this pitching mess we got.
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah, so it's definitely Sale and everyone else, no doubt
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: about that. I don't like have a strong take on
• 9:32
  Speaker 5: like the field outside of Sale. For me, it's mostly
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: that I don't really like anyone. Robleski at that price,
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: Tag is going to be a no for me. Lugo
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: same thing. Jared Jones is where it starts to get interesting.
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: He's got arm talent.
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: We know, he's had a bunch of success in the
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: majors before you know, he's dealt with injuries. Wasn't great
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: in his return this year.
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: Tang on the.
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: Other side of that game, has been decent lately cheap
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: Tag at sixty five hundred. Pittsburgh's offense has been good.
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: But on this slate, I think you have to at
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: least look at him.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: And then.
• 10:12
  Speaker 5: The other guy, you know, jt Gin. You mentioned him
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: if it weren't for the win game I'd be more interested,
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: but so would the Field, So I think that you
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: gotta at least have him in play at seventy seven hundred.
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: And then the other guy that I'm interested in is
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: Ran Nelson, who normal saying I never would say that
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: against the Dodgers, but it's slim pickens the night. You know,
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: I like the chalkier offenses. Maybe this is a spot
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: to get different at Pitcher on a slate without really
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: any good SB two options, is suspending down, I think
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: is where I want to.
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: Go as far as like talent goes.
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: I think Nelson is right there, probably you know, after
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: Imanaga and Jones, but I Minaga hasn't been good lately
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: and Jones has been hurt forever. So I feel better
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: about Nelson against the Dodgers on the slate than I
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: would on basically any other slate ever, So that's where
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: I'm leaning right now. Field won't get there because it's
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: against the Dodgers, and he's you know, very likely probable
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: to get blown up because it's the Dodgers. But I
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: think he's talented to get through them here, and it
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: gives you a lot of a lot of salary freeness,
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: So I think Nelson for me, Yeah, it.
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: Does get ugly real quick. And we're sitting here talking
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: about picking on the Dodgers. That, uh, that just pretty
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: much explains it. But like I said, I think Chris
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: Sails an easier fade on FanDuel just because you got
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: to have one guy hit and then then two over
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: here on DK. But yeah, I mean I think Jones
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: is definitely interesting for sure. You know, I just AMaGA
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: scares me. And like you said, with the with the
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: with the wind, I mean, he definitely, uh should be
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: the SP two as far as talent, everything on the slate,
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: But I mean there's just so many red flags up
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: in the air with that matchup and how he's been
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: pitching lately, it just kind of.
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: Makes it a little bit scarier.
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: But uh yeah, as you mentioned, pitching's kind of thin
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: down there. I mean, Chris Sale is going to be
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: massively owned today. I mean I'm thinking seventy percent higher.
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: I would assume way way way and hire eighty eighty.
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, and like the higher dollar stuff ninety
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: because there's just no one else to go to, So
• 12:23
  Speaker 5: that would be.
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: The reason not to play him. Just the ownership, that's all.
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: It is.
• 12:27
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: Now, now let me ask you this. Over the years,
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: I've kind of always debated with myself. Let's say you
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: got a ninety percent on Chris Sale today and obviously
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: the tournament you're playing is twenty two percent. I mean,
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: even if you don't even if you if you fade him,
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: I mean, and he's still you know, if he does
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: really well, you pretty much probably don't have much of
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: a chance. But if he does shitty, I just feel
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: like there's a window where you're only in a ten
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: percent window, you know what I mean, Yeah.
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: You could get up at the top.
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: But if if you if you don't fade a guy
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: that has like a ninety percent ownership and he does shit,
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: it's not going to kill you. On the other end,
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: you know what, you know what I mean, Like what
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: I'm saying like, yeah.
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: There's the risk reward.
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: I get it, the risk reward. I understand what you're saying.
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: For me, it like at that point when you get
• 13:12
  Speaker 5: into such high ownership, Like I hear what you're saying.
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: But on the same token, like the point and the
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: goal in any tournament is.
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: To get all the way to the top.
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: So like when you've got a guy ninety plus percent owned,
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: which we're not even projecting, but that's what I think.
• 13:31
  Speaker 5: Then it starts to bring into play like random occurrences
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: like that, just anything happens that if ninety percent of
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: the field has this guy, you could take them out,
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: And it also starts to bring into play like Toronto stacks.
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: But I'm personally not there because I'm a Sale guy.
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: In general, he's a horse.
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: He's one of my favorite pitchers in baseball.
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: Honestly, I play him on almost all slates he's on,
• 13:54
  Speaker 5: so I'm playing it at night.
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: I'll tell Chris Sale is one of my favorite pictures too,
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: because one of the best stories I have ever heard
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: in baseball this is when they tried to make Chris
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: Sale wear this funky white Sox uniform that.
• 14:05
  Speaker 6: He didn't want to wear, and we went in the locker.
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: Room and got a pair of scissors and cut his
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: shit up so that he couldn't wear it. So Ever
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: since I heard that, I've just always thought, man, I
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: kind of like characters sometimes, and he's definitely a character.
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: But after Sale, let me give me throw out your
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: top couple pictures after that, After Chris Sale.
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's ugly.
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna say Tang and Nelson just because of the
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: cheapness of them, like maybe Jones, Jones, Tang and Nelson,
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: those three all right.
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd throw Lugo in there as well, somewhere in
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: that mix, just because he's not that great of a
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: strikeout picture. But I think he can eat up some
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: innings against the Twins. I just think he could get
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: some points for you. I mean, at seventy nine hundred,
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: it's not I wish he was down in sixty nine hundred.
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: I'd feel much better about it. But yeah, I think
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: he's about the the only other one in play now
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: in MAGA eighty five hundred, I'm not going there. I
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: think I'd rather play the A's today, to be truthful
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: with you, the way he's been pitching, I don't know
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: if there's something wrong with him or what, but yeah,
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: it just doesn't seem to be himself here in recent times.
• 15:15
  Speaker 6: But let's take a look at some bats.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: I mean, with all this pitching, you think we got
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: some offense, And I think we do. With the ten
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: teams we got playing today, there's a lot to be
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: had and a lot to be said today. I think
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: you can almost make an argument for everybody except maybe
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: the Blue Jays against against Sale today. But just taking
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: a look here at the stone, we got the first
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: game seven fifteen. Blue Jays and Braves come right out
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: with Chris Sale against Mason Floherty here. I mean, Akunya
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: has been absolutely on fire here in recent times. The
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: gotta lefty there. We got Dubond who's been hitting really well,
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: hit a homer yesterday. Braves sitting there four point seventy
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: five run total, third highest total or fourth highest total
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: of the teams here on the slate today.
• 16:04
  Speaker 6: But man Akuny has been hot. Kind of the news today.
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: He was looking at them baseballs, shying to see one
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: was bigger than the other, and he was like looking
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: at him, and you know, I don't know if you
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: saw that on Twitter, kind of brought up a controversy
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: about you know, them using certain baseballs for certain teams
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: and all this crap.
• 16:22
  Speaker 6: And I was just like, my lah, Lah, I wouldn't
• 16:24
  Speaker 6: I wouldn't doubt it.
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: But I mean still, it was just funny to see
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: a guy sitting there looking at the balls. But either way,
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: I got some interest in these Braves. I don't know
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: so much about the Blue Jays. I don't even know
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: if there's really a one off here that that maybe
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: I would, you know, like to go after. I mean,
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: the flyball percentage for sales been at twenty nine percent
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: to Righty's. I mean maybe like a Vladdie if you
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: wanted to go there, maybe Springer, if you wanted to
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: go and throw, you know, throw one off against your pitcher.
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: And you know what, man, I'm not even a post
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: to on this five game slate with pitching as shitty
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: as it is.
• 16:59
  Speaker 6: Maybe throwing in a Blue Jay is a one off.
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: Maybe Sale gives up a homer or two you capture
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: that still get sales, strikeouts, and uh, maybe you get
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: ahead with one of these Blue Jay bats. But man,
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: I don't know. It's kind of slim pickens on that side.
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: But Braves looking pretty decent.
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Braves look pretty good here, you know, relatives and
• 17:21
  Speaker 5: other teams on the slate, I think they look good.
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: Not amazing, Akuna, I like them more as pieces. Got
• 17:28
  Speaker 5: a kind of a bullpen game here for the JS,
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: so never spots I love picking on.
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: But Atlanta's offense.
• 17:35
  Speaker 5: Is so good that, like on a small slate like this,
• 17:38
  Speaker 5: they're obviously in play if nothing else, If it weren't
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: for the win game in Chicago, I'd probably have.
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: Them higher ranked Right now.
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: I think they look good, but mostly mini stacks for
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: me and then obviously one off acunya albis. I mean
• 17:53
  Speaker 5: their whole lineup is filled with the guys you can play.
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: So when you have a lineup filled with good one offs,
• 17:58
  Speaker 5: probably means the stack isn't bad itself.
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, now too, Like you know, I think the Coubbies
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: are going to be fairly popular here today, you know.
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: And I've never been opposed to, like, you know, full
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: stack in a team and then throwing in some one
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: offs that I like, you don't always have to, you know,
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: necessarily play two teams. I like to kind of full
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: with that a little bit more on shorter slates too,
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: instead of me just jamming in some you know, cheap
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: guys somewhere else, maybe I want to throw in a
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: guy I think at least has some home run possibly
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: no potential in my line up here today, but yeah,
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: I think uh, I think definitely interest when Acune has
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: just been absolutely on fire. He's what top three in
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: ops in the last two weeks and all of baseball
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: Harris has been hitting the ball pretty well for Atlanta too,
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: but Akunya finally woke up there. He's he obviously started
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: out pretty slow, that's for sure. But moving on, seven
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: forty game, we got the We have the Royals and
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: Seth Lugo versus the Twins. The twins thrown out and
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: Drew Morris jack Morris's kid. I'm just kidding. It's not
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: Jack Morris's kid. But either way, I mean, Bobby witzmen
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: looking good. He's always in play. Morris is not really
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: that great of a strikeout pitcher. I don't really expect
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: them all to go too far a fly ball kind
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: of lean here, but you know, maybe you could look
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: at some twins. I just the their twin team totals
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: really low. I don't really like, you know, a full
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: stack there. But as far as or the Twins actually
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: four point eight total, the Royals had the lower team total. Sorry,
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: but I don't really want to pick it on Seth Lugo,
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: to be honest with you. Strikeout percentage a little lower
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: to the right side at sixteen percent. Uh. He has
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: been getting buriled up by both sides of the plate
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: so far this year. But man if I got to
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: make a stand somewhere. I'm pitching. Lugo isn't a guy
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: that I don't mind. I don't really like picking on
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: in general, but uh yeah, I mean you see anything here.
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: I think Bobby Witt probably be the guy stand out
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: for me.
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I actually don't mind either side of this game.
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: You know, I don't love bullpen games with Minnesota's bullpen.
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: Isn't good in Casey.
• 20:08
  Speaker 5: They started to get going a little bit, good series
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: in Cincinnati for them. You could play Cincinnati or Kansas City,
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: excuse me, and then Minnesota. I'm more okay with picking
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: on Logo than you are. I don't think he's very
• 20:20
  Speaker 5: good right now, not in good form. Minnesota's lineup isn't
• 20:25
  Speaker 5: that good either though, and I don't think he gets
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: a lot of love. So I'm a little torn on Minnesota.
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: I think I like them more than you, but not
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: sure enough to actually play them. Kansas City might be
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: the same for me. Both sides of this game are
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: in play, Like, we don't really like pitching on this
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: late outside of sales, so basically every other stack is
• 20:44
  Speaker 5: in play.
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: It's just a matter of how much you like them.
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: And I like these two don't love them.
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean more so coming It looks like Parates
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: is gonna come in right after and then you're gonna
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: get some of that bullpen or the Twins that is
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: not all that good either, So you know, maybe that'd
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: bump up the Royals a little bit just because that
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: bullpen isn't all that good.
• 21:05
  Speaker 6: Sure, but yeah, I mean, other than that, I mean
• 21:10
  Speaker 6: the Royals are.
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: I'm coming around a little bit more on the Royals
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: than in the past. They do have a little bit
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: more power than they have in the past, but just
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: still not quite there for me yet, that's for sure.
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: But I'm a smaller slate. I'm I'm open anything on
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: a smaller slate like this, But the Marquee game where
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: we're going to see a lot of the offense here today,
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: we've got a game total of ten out there in
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: Wrigley Wrigley Field. Win game, we get the wind blown
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: out between ten and twelve miles an hour straight to
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: center field, you're gonna have a Manga, who I mentioned
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: has been struggling here in recent times is not look
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: at his last three starts, been just been getting absolutely
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: beat up.
• 21:49
  Speaker 6: Nick Kurt's been hitting Langler's been hitting.
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: Henry Bolte hasn't been looking bad against lefties. A Manga
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: has been just been getting barreled up for almost four
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: fourteen percent to left, these ten percent to right.
• 22:02
  Speaker 6: Hees he's not been looking good.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: He's been walking more guys than he has in the
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: past eight and a half percent to the left side.
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: The strikeout percentages are there, twenty nine percent to the
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: left and twenty two to the right. But man, I
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: just think with the wind blown out, with his fly
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: ball percentages being as high as it is, you look
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: at some of these a's they hit fly balls. I
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: mean up top, you got three out of the five
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: guys are up in the forty percent range, which which
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: is pretty high for fly balls. So I think that
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: could be definitely a problem for Shote and the higher
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: fly ball here. Rooker, Soderstrom, Kobe Thomas, Nick Kurtz at
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: thirty five percent, langueliers in the mid thirty thirty percent.
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: So yeah, definitely Showte's got his work cutof for him.
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: So I do like some aze, but I think a
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: lot of people are going to go to the club
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: Cubs here tonight against JT.
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: Gin.
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: You just look at Gin his walk percentage has been
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: awful so far this year, thirteen percent walk percentage to
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: the left side, which has not been good. His k's
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: have been down at eighteen percent. His k's are their
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: right side up at twenty five percent. But we know
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: these Cobies got some good lefties. Pca Bush always like
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: some Bush. We got half belisteros I expect to be
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: in there. But yeah, I think this one's interesting. We
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: got a win game. We got a total of ten
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: Cubbies sitting there with the team total a little bit
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: over five, and then you got the As sitting there
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: about four point six. But yeah, the five point one
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: is the highest on the slate here, Matt, I don't know.
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: I think the Kubbies are going to be pretty popular today,
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: especially them lefties. But I think this game is full
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: of offense on both sides.
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree.
• 23:42
  Speaker 5: I think the Cubs are a little more popular too.
• 23:44
  Speaker 5: Guinn is one of the biggest slits guys in baseball.
• 23:47
  Speaker 5: He's really good against right ees, not so much against lefties,
• 23:52
  Speaker 5: and you want the lefties against him here win gaming
• 23:54
  Speaker 5: in regularly. So even the righty is you know, if
• 23:57
  Speaker 5: they get a hold of one here hard not to
• 23:59
  Speaker 5: like both offenses. I think Imanaga and the A's are
• 24:03
  Speaker 5: more boom bust. I think the A's have the higher
• 24:07
  Speaker 5: upside than the Cubs. I think the Cubs are more
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: likely to score some runs against skin, where Imanaga has
• 24:13
  Speaker 5: been clearly up and down this season. All in all,
• 24:18
  Speaker 5: with how good the weather is here, I like both
• 24:20
  Speaker 5: these offenses a lot. I don't think you're I don't
• 24:23
  Speaker 5: think you're crazy at all to have them as your
• 24:25
  Speaker 5: top two on the board.
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: How do you want to play them? I think is
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: a personal preference. I'm with you.
• 24:30
  Speaker 5: I kind of like the A's more, but I like
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: the Cubs as well. Waiting for both lineups to drop,
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: think I think still.
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you could definitely gamestack this one if
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: you want to look at that too. I don't think
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: that that's necessarily a bad option if this one turns
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: into a softball game, which very well could happen.
• 24:48
  Speaker 6: But yeah, definitely.
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: Uh, these two teams are full of some offense, definitely.
• 24:55
  Speaker 6: I don't know my showt out to me.
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: I just got a bad feeling. I mean it's k
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: Prop six and a half. I mean he's he's you know,
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: got decent k prop and everything. It's just I don't know,
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: I just think he something just don't seem right, especially
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: to go three starts like that and just not look
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: good at all.
• 25:12
  Speaker 6: But we move on.
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: We got the later games here. We got two games left.
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: We've got Pittsburgh and Houston. We got Houston with we
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: got kawah ting on the hill, and then we got
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: Jared Jones. As we mentioned the prospect who end up
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: I believe it was his elbow that was messed up,
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: but highly touted prospect here. I mean, you got you
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: do have a couple of strikeouts Trammel Smith, Bryce Matthews
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: at the bottom of the lineup, but generally Houston doesn't
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: have all that many strikeouts, especially at the top of
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: the top four don't have too many strikeouts. You look
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: at Jones, he only had He's only had twenty one
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: played appearances so far this year.
• 25:55
  Speaker 6: Didn't pitch all last year.
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: So we're not really sure where we're getting here out
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: of this guy, expect actually coming out of injury.
• 26:01
  Speaker 6: But I mean, I could I could see.
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: That being a reason why maybe you'd want to go
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: with Houston, especially if Jones gets steamed up here. As
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: we get closer to lock time. But on the other side,
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: Pittsburgh bats against Tang. Tang has been walking quite a
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: few lefties here a recent time fourteen percent walk rate,
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: a WOBE has been giving up three thirty five thirty
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: one percent fly ball rate to the left side, which
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: I think is which I think is interesting. But yeah,
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: I mean, if I want some lefties here against against Tang,
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: Pittsburgh's definitely going to be able to provide some with Horowitz, Lao, O'Hearn, O'Neill,
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: Cruz definitely going to be in play today. Brian Reynolds
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: of course being the switch, so they're gonna be able
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: to throw some lefty power at him. We know that
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: Houston bullpen and all that isn't all that good either, Matt,
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: So I think Pittsburgh's definitely in play today. I don't
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: know if it have them in my top you know,
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: two or three today. I do think maybe the Cubs
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: I would rank a little higher, and probably the A's
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: a little bit higher, But I definitely think Pittsburgh's in play.
• 27:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, this game has gone off back to back days.
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: Last yesterday you needed the stack. Day before you needed
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: the stack, so why not again today? With maybe the worst.
• 27:17
  Speaker 5: Pitching matchup we've seen all series long. Tang has been
• 27:20
  Speaker 5: good lately, but I'm not really buying what he's selling.
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: So Pittsburgh, you mentioned the bullpen problems Houston's had, definitely
• 27:27
  Speaker 5: in play here. Houston on the other side against the
• 27:30
  Speaker 5: Jared Jones that's unknown right now, also in play. So yeah,
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: I like this game. But I also think this is
• 27:42
  Speaker 5: the one like true wildcard game where you could play
• 27:44
  Speaker 5: either pitcher, you could play.
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: Either stack.
• 27:49
  Speaker 5: Like, none of them are that great to me, but
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: none of them are out of play because of how
• 27:56
  Speaker 5: small the slate is. I think the Pittsburg stack probably
• 28:01
  Speaker 5: looks the best on paper of all the sides.
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Alvarez has been smacking the shit out of the
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: baseball last two weeks. He's number one in OPS and
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: all of baseball, So dude's been absolutely smashing here is
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: steman one point three four zero. Dude's been six homers
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: in his last forty at bats. I mean, he's been
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: looking real good. Thirteen RBIs, three seventy five average, four
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: ninety on base percentage.
• 28:30
  Speaker 6: Alvarez has just been ungodly here in the last couple
• 28:34
  Speaker 6: of weeks.
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: So he's definitely somebody that I'd look at maybe jamming
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: in there today. If you can do that, there's some
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: cheap pictures today. So if you want to spend up
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: on a bat, obviously, throwing in the hottest hitter in
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: baseball isn't isn't a bad idea.
• 28:49
  Speaker 6: My g's b rising. When I listened to G.
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: That happened sometimes yesterday. They you know, we were giving
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: Naids in them a little shit about the Brewers ground
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: ball pitcher against the ground ball team.
• 29:01
  Speaker 6: What ended up happening.
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: Didn't even get a damn hit there in a little while.
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: Toaday's has given me some shit, but always fun given
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: aid some shit, friendly crap, that's for sure. But Matt,
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: we got one game left here today on the slate
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: five gamer. We got we got the Dodgers in Arizona,
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: sitting at a nine. We got Justin Rubluski, low strikeout pitcher,
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: both sides seventeen percent, the left side seventeen basically percent
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: to the right side against a against the d Backs
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: team that we know does not strike out all that much.
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: We don't generally like chasing the d Backs for strikeouts.
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: And then you got reen Nelson here against the Dodgers
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: who you mentioned, maybe you'd be interested in playing a
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: little bit of En Nelson in this short pitching slate
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: that we have here tonight against the Dodgers, who do
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: have the highest team total here tonight. But I mean,
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: you got some of these lefties. I don't know if
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: Tucker's gonna get moved up in the lineup. You got
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: Freddie Freeman, Muncie Dalton, Rushing I would expect to probably
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: be in there here today as well. But yeah, I
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: mean you got Dodgers, you got Nilsen who you were
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: who were a little bit interested in here today. But
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: I actually think the d Backs are kind of interesting
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: as a low owned stack here against Rabluski, who just
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: doesn't strike out many too many hitters, he does give
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: up a little bit of fly balls thirty three percent
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: of the right side, thirty one percent to the left side.
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: So I don't mind targeting the Dbacks here, especially when
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: they're low owned. I think they're interesting. They got a
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: pretty good.
• 30:30
  Speaker 6: Lineup that can turn that lineup up and down.
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: I'm with you, the Dodgers are obviously in play.
• 30:36
  Speaker 5: I like Nelson just because the slate stinks, and I
• 30:40
  Speaker 5: think he's talented, but the Dodgers stack on paper best
• 30:43
  Speaker 5: offense in baseball on a slate with ten teams. I mean,
• 30:46
  Speaker 5: they are by far the best offense on this slate,
• 30:49
  Speaker 5: so that alone puts them in play. That's that I
• 30:52
  Speaker 5: do like Nelson in tournaments, so I'm probably gonna be
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: lower on the Dodgers in the field. But that's just
• 30:57
  Speaker 5: a personal thing. That's not like I don't like them
• 30:59
  Speaker 5: or anything. And I'm with you on Arizona. Robleski is
• 31:02
  Speaker 5: not very good. I think he's due for some regression.
• 31:05
  Speaker 5: Was really really good last time out against Philly.
• 31:08
  Speaker 4: I'm not buying it.
• 31:09
  Speaker 5: I don't know if I'm enough stack Arizona here, but
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: I like pieces katal Marte obviously probably the top second
• 31:14
  Speaker 5: basement of every slate he's on tonight, no exception between
• 31:17
  Speaker 5: him and Brain and Lau. So yeah, I like pieces
• 31:20
  Speaker 5: of Arizona and the Dodgers. If you're not playing Nelson,
• 31:23
  Speaker 5: which most people aren't, look good as a full stack.
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the thing you know stack in Arizona. That Dodger
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: bolpens is pretty good. So not one I generally generally
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: like to pick on. But I mean, we got a
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: five game slate here tonight and before we get out
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: of here, Matt, I mean, is there any you know,
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: as we had the question at the top, that you know,
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: playing on shorter slates, you know you seem to have
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: more success. Are you more app like I kind of mentioned,
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: maybe try different things you wouldn't do on a ten gamer,
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: like maybe pitting a hitter against one of your pitchers
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: in a lineup, or are you more app to maybe
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: not fully double stack where you maybe have you know,
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: four hitters on DK instead of five, and then maybe
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: you're throwing in a two and two or two to
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: one one one, you know, just throwing in some power bats.
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: Is there anything like maybe you'd do different you're willing
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: to do different on a short slate than you are
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: a longer slate.
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: You know, yes to all that.
• 32:21
  Speaker 5: I think playing guys against your pitcher on shorter slits
• 32:24
  Speaker 5: obviously just is more in play, especially in a say
• 32:27
  Speaker 5: like this where you mentioned it with playing a guy
• 32:29
  Speaker 5: against Sale. But for me, while that's definitely also in
• 32:32
  Speaker 5: play because the Toronto guys are gonna be really low owed,
• 32:35
  Speaker 5: it's more like against any other picture that you play,
• 32:38
  Speaker 5: I think you can play a guy or two against them,
• 32:40
  Speaker 5: because we don't expect great performances from any of them,
• 32:43
  Speaker 5: so all of them are probably gonna get hit around.
• 32:47
  Speaker 5: You know, you want homers, you homer hunting. Like, even
• 32:50
  Speaker 5: if I play Ryan Nelson doesn't mean that I can't
• 32:53
  Speaker 5: play at Kyle Tucker or whatever with him.
• 32:56
  Speaker 4: So yeah, much more likely to do that than I am.
• 33:01
  Speaker 5: Like on a main slate, You're just not doing that
• 33:03
  Speaker 5: on a main slate for me, honestly though, just thinking
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: about it, I think it's more that, like I don't
• 33:09
  Speaker 5: do enough different on main slates and small slates. I
• 33:12
  Speaker 5: like playing bottom of lineups and guys that are really
• 33:15
  Speaker 5: low owned, and that's more apropos and better on short
• 33:19
  Speaker 5: slates because there's just a smaller player pool. That goes
• 33:23
  Speaker 5: back to what you talked about, where you know, on
• 33:26
  Speaker 5: main slates there's just so many guys that can that
• 33:29
  Speaker 5: can do damage. So I don't know the exact answer.
• 33:32
  Speaker 5: I'm kind of just just spitballing out loud.
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I remember, you know one thing I
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: always stick with me at DFS, Listen to your gut sometimes,
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: you know, like sometimes your gut and you know you're
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: that inner self will tell you something. You know, like,
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: oh man, I really like this guy today and you
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: just ignore them, or you know it's that, Oh I
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: got eight hundred left in salary and I'm gonna bump
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: this guy up and take this guy out. You might
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: as well go bet on the guy you took out
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: to go hit a home run, because we all know
• 33:59
  Speaker 3: how that shit works out every damn time.
• 34:01
  Speaker 6: I know it seemed like that way for me, that's
• 34:03
  Speaker 6: for sure. But Matt, before.
• 34:05
  Speaker 3: We get out of here on this five gamer, we
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: uh give me, give me your top stacks and then uh,
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: let's maybe throw out a home run for everybody.
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: We got a Lamont Wade shout out. Uh yeah, that's
• 34:20
  Speaker 4: not definitely. I didn't even know if what Oh yeah,
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: Ryan Wade for the Dodgers. Right, is that who's in
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: the lineup?
• 34:30
  Speaker 6: See did he make.
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: Well?
• 34:33
  Speaker 4: Because someone was.
• 34:34
  Speaker 5: Josh Gillen was talking about Lamont Wade and he's definitely
• 34:39
  Speaker 5: not in the big league still, I'm not sure what
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: he's talking about, but either way, top stacks gotta be
• 34:45
  Speaker 5: the Cubs, the A's and number three will go.
• 34:53
  Speaker 4: I like that Pirates call. We'll go with the Pirates
• 34:55
  Speaker 4: that are hot right now? Home run call?
• 35:00
  Speaker 5: All we will go with we'll go lead off for
• 35:06
  Speaker 5: the Royals. Carter Jensen gets one tonight.
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: I like Carter Jensen getting one. I I got the Cubbies.
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: I also like the Pirates. A's uh throwing the Dodgers
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: in there as well. Home run for me today, I
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: am going to go with Brandon Lowe. I think he
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: he gets one done for for the Pirates here in
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: that in that game today, So.
• 35:34
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he's good. He's got astros.
• 35:37
  Speaker 5: It must be you know what he's right, Lamont Wade
• 35:40
  Speaker 5: must be on the astros hitting a fifth man.
• 35:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, out of nowhere, good call, Josh.
• 35:48
  Speaker 5: Uh, it's rare, someone states by me in the MLB
• 35:52
  Speaker 5: streets and this one did out of nowhere, Lamont Wade,
• 35:55
  Speaker 5: good call.
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 35:58
  Speaker 6: Isn't it funny though?
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: Man?
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: When you're around your friends and they'll be like throwing
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: some of my friends will be throwing hitters and pictures
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: at me.
• 36:04
  Speaker 6: What handed are they?
• 36:05

• 36:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, same, Like we're just not the ones you want
• 36:18
  Speaker 5: to test in games like that. Right, they sign it
• 36:22
  Speaker 5: to a major league contract. I'm checking to see what
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: his deal has been, but yeah, that's wild.
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: Didn't fit to that.
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: I doubt he's in the pool well mot Wade, I mean,
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: come on, there's enough talent in baseball. He stopt bringing
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: back spoiled milk. But either way, Matt enjoyed doing the
