- 0:01Speaker 1: Yep. Inside I want to kill myself. We are on
- 0:06Speaker 1: Own seven run over the last two days after tonight
- 0:08Speaker 1: it was just complete bullshit. So that's that's I'm gonna
- 0:12Speaker 1: start off this show horrible Sunday one and five. I
- 0:15Speaker 1: don't even know what to tell you about that. I
- 0:18Speaker 1: just don't want to do this anymore. I have never
- 0:20Speaker 1: seen anything like this. Man with the slump continuing. Two
- 0:25Speaker 1: straight losses, not a good day at all all in
- 0:27Speaker 1: four that have not had a good season. Man with
- 0:32Speaker 1: wookends slump that I'm on, and the slump continues, I've
- 0:37Speaker 1: reached a new peak. Actually, I'm going to burn my
- 0:41Speaker 1: browins hat man, I don't know what is going on
- 0:44Speaker 1: with the Bruins. March is that what it is? I
- 0:47Speaker 1: don't even know it's March ninth. I think who even knows? Man,
- 0:52Speaker 1: I don't know what data is anymore. I don't even
- 0:54Speaker 1: know what data is anymore. Man, back with you after
- 0:58Speaker 1: the worst day that I could possibly have, act with
- 1:00Speaker 1: you as I always am until I die at least
- 1:04Speaker 1: oh and two. Yesterday and yesterday it did not go
- 1:07Speaker 1: well for me. Own five the worst month that I've
- 1:11Speaker 1: ever had in my eighteen years doing this. I don't
- 1:14Speaker 1: know what to even tell you about this anymore. Slump,
- 1:16Speaker 1: yes series, the slump discontinues, the slump continues. Somebody fucking
- 1:21Speaker 1: kill me, please. I don't even know what I should
- 1:25Speaker 1: do at this point, other than potentially end it all.
- 1:33Speaker 1: What's up, everybody, It's sewed back with you. Better off dead. Friday,
- 1:37Speaker 1: September twenty six. Hopefully this video is not going to
- 1:40Speaker 1: be that long, although I fear that it will be,
- 1:42Speaker 1: because we got a lot going on. We have the
- 1:44Speaker 1: last series of the Major League Baseball season beginning. Full
- 1:49Speaker 1: baseball slate here. I'm gonna have two baseball plays. I
- 1:52Speaker 1: will have one WNBA player going to talk about those games.
- 1:55Speaker 1: I have two college football plays on the three college
- 1:59Speaker 1: football games. I actually have a fairly strong opinion on
- 2:02Speaker 1: all three games. So it's just that's just the way
- 2:05Speaker 1: that it works out. So Yesterday one and zero. As
- 2:09Speaker 1: we continue to win, we're on a nice hot streak
- 2:11Speaker 1: right now. The only play I gave out yesterday and
- 2:13Speaker 1: Thursday's card was the New York Mets. They got it done.
- 2:16Speaker 1: We handicapped the starting pitching matchup correctly. Imon Naga struggled
- 2:20Speaker 1: in that game. Mets were the more motivated team. They
- 2:22Speaker 1: won eight to five, but it was kind of more
- 2:25Speaker 1: lopsided than that. They were winning eight to two pretty
- 2:28Speaker 1: late in the game. So luckily they didn't blow it
- 2:30Speaker 1: or anything like that. But I thought that the Bullpens
- 2:33Speaker 1: were still it was still fine to include the bullpens.
- 2:36Speaker 1: I thought we were gonna get a full game effort
- 2:37Speaker 1: out of the Mets being one of the teams that
- 2:39Speaker 1: still is fighting for a playoff spot and it's not
- 2:42Speaker 1: secure yet. So that's what happened last night. Let's get
- 2:45Speaker 1: into it, man, Let's do this. The breakdown WNBA coming
- 2:50Speaker 1: up first. I actually kind of I do have an
- 2:54Speaker 1: opinion on both of these games. Two on the side,
- 2:56Speaker 1: which really it's just the zig zag, like, this is
- 2:59Speaker 1: what you do man in NBA playoffs. I think the
- 3:02Speaker 1: same thing could be applied to WNBA playoffs, where when
- 3:05Speaker 1: you had an outlier in the previous game, you want
- 3:09Speaker 1: to tend to look towards going in the opposite direction. Here.
- 3:12Speaker 1: So Vegas is at Indiana. Both these series are now
- 3:16Speaker 1: switching to the other team's venue. Vegas is having to
- 3:18Speaker 1: travel to Indiana might not be the easiest spot for
- 3:21Speaker 1: Vegas to have to go on the road to Indiana,
- 3:23Speaker 1: and I believe Indiana beat them. I don't know if
- 3:26Speaker 1: they played them once or twice in Indiana this year,
- 3:29Speaker 1: but Indiana did beat them, I think by a fairly
- 3:32Speaker 1: significant margin at home, and at least one of those
- 3:34Speaker 1: games it might have been the only game at home,
- 3:35Speaker 1: so Indiana could definitely compete with them, which we do know,
- 3:39Speaker 1: because Indiana did beat them in Vegas. But I believe
- 3:43Speaker 1: in all the regular season games at least Sophie Cunningham
- 3:45Speaker 1: was there. I don't think Clark was there for all
- 3:47Speaker 1: the games. But now Indiana's of course without both of them,
- 3:50Speaker 1: so Indiana does have a short roster here, although they
- 3:53Speaker 1: have been playing pretty well even without them. I would
- 3:57Speaker 1: lean to Indiana on this one. Vegas is down for
- 3:59Speaker 1: four and a half to four. I know I gave
- 4:00Speaker 1: out Vegas in game two because I thought it was
- 4:02Speaker 1: a great spot to play them in the zigzag there
- 4:05Speaker 1: because Indiana came into their place and upset them in
- 4:07Speaker 1: what was kind of an outlier type of result in
- 4:10Speaker 1: the first game, and then that game too, I think
- 4:14Speaker 1: was maybe a little bit of an outlier as well,
- 4:16Speaker 1: just because it was such an easy win for Vegas
- 4:18Speaker 1: winning ninety to sixty eight, So I mean, I'll take
- 4:21Speaker 1: it when I gave out a play on that side.
- 4:23Speaker 1: It was really easy for them. Vegas had a great
- 4:25Speaker 1: shooting performance fifty three point eight percent from a field,
- 4:29Speaker 1: forty one point seven percent from three. That's probably not
- 4:32Speaker 1: gonna happen again. Indiana was a little bit on the
- 4:36Speaker 1: I don't want to say it was a total outlier,
- 4:38Speaker 1: but they didn't shoot particularly well. Forty one percent from
- 4:40Speaker 1: the field, thirty five percent from three is fine. Rebound
- 4:44Speaker 1: battle was actually still even. Of course, Vegas did win
- 4:47Speaker 1: the turnover battle this time, and I believe the the
- 4:51Speaker 1: free throw the free throw discrepancy that happened in the
- 4:55Speaker 1: first game balanced itself back out, which I thought was
- 4:58Speaker 1: gonna happen in this game. Much better performance from Asia Wilson,
- 5:01Speaker 1: which I thought would happen. I think maybe she was
- 5:04Speaker 1: distracted by the MVP winning the MVP going into that
- 5:10Speaker 1: first game. But still, this is a tough travel spot
- 5:13Speaker 1: for them, having to go to Indiana. Indiana. It will
- 5:15Speaker 1: be the team with the adjustments to make because Vegas
- 5:18Speaker 1: basically played a perfect game almost in that game, so
- 5:22Speaker 1: they really don't have any adjustments to make coming into
- 5:24Speaker 1: this one. So I do into Indiana plus the points,
- 5:28Speaker 1: but I think the better game is laying the points
- 5:31Speaker 1: with Minnesota. I know we're laying a road favor here,
- 5:33Speaker 1: which I usually don't like to do them. By the way,
- 5:35Speaker 1: market read on that Vegas down from four and a
- 5:37Speaker 1: half to four here, fifty eight percent of tickets, only
- 5:40Speaker 1: fifty four percent of the cash on them, So the
- 5:42Speaker 1: money's agreeing with that. The money is also seemingly agreeing
- 5:45Speaker 1: with Minnesota here. The line did drop a little bit
- 5:48Speaker 1: from four and a half to three and a half,
- 5:50Speaker 1: but we're gonna go with Minnesota here. Lay the points
- 5:53Speaker 1: with Minnesota against Phoenix. Sixty nine percent tickets, seventy three
- 5:56Speaker 1: percent of the cash on Minnesota, so while they are
- 5:59Speaker 1: public as well, which makes sense, I think this is
- 6:01Speaker 1: a spot to do it. And I know Minnesota did
- 6:04Speaker 1: play twice at Phoenix this year and they won one
- 6:07Speaker 1: game by three, so they didn't cover this and they
- 6:09Speaker 1: lost the other game outright, so I get it they're
- 6:11Speaker 1: own two against this number at Phoenix. But this is
- 6:15Speaker 1: all about the spot man Minnesota. I mean, they're still
- 6:18Speaker 1: the best team in the league, and this is an
- 6:20Speaker 1: angle that we use in the NBA playoffs a lot
- 6:23Speaker 1: when when the better team loses at home, they tend
- 6:27Speaker 1: to be a good play in the next game, regardless
- 6:30Speaker 1: of whether they're at home or on the road. Traveling
- 6:33Speaker 1: to Phoenix isn't exactly like a spot that they're not
- 6:36Speaker 1: totally familiar with or anything like that. So I think
- 6:39Speaker 1: this is fine. By the way, I probably should have
- 6:42Speaker 1: mentioned because these teams have had rest. That does help
- 6:44Speaker 1: Indiana as far as them not having a really full
- 6:49Speaker 1: roster there, the fact they have rest coming into this
- 6:52Speaker 1: game does help as far as that's concernable. All these
- 6:54Speaker 1: teams are gonna be rested coming in here. But Minnesota,
- 6:57Speaker 1: the way that they lost Game two, this is the
- 7:00Speaker 1: type of thing I look for. Man, I'm gonna look
- 7:01Speaker 1: to go for that. I'm gonna look for that team
- 7:04Speaker 1: to bounce back. I mean, Minnesota had won all three
- 7:07Speaker 1: of their playoff games so far. They got caught in
- 7:09Speaker 1: this game against Phoenix. But Minnesota dominated most of this
- 7:12Speaker 1: game against Phoenix. I mean, in the third quarter they
- 7:15Speaker 1: were winning this game by twenty points. It was I
- 7:18Speaker 1: believe it was the biggest comeback in WNBA history in
- 7:23Speaker 1: the playoffs for Phoenix. That's just ridiculous, man. So you
- 7:26Speaker 1: gotta think that when Phoenix does that, it's gonna take
- 7:29Speaker 1: something out of them, man, Like, can they really put
- 7:31Speaker 1: in another effort like that two games in a row?
- 7:35Speaker 1: Like they got handled in this game and they somehow
- 7:37Speaker 1: wound up erasing that huge deficit, went into overtime and
- 7:41Speaker 1: won the game. I don't think that's gonna happen again.
- 7:42Speaker 1: Minnesota had a really bad shooting game forty five point
- 7:46Speaker 1: three percent from the field, twenty five percent from three,
- 7:49Speaker 1: while Phoenix shot forty point six percent from three. I mean,
- 7:52Speaker 1: forty five point three percent is in that bad. Minnesota
- 7:54Speaker 1: actually had a better field goal percentage, but the three
- 7:57Speaker 1: point percentage was really the outlier. Twenty five percent from
- 8:00Speaker 1: Minnesota forty point six percent for Phoenix. I don't think
- 8:04Speaker 1: they're gonna shoot like that again from three. Minnesota's gonna
- 8:07Speaker 1: have the adjustments to make, man. After they I think
- 8:09Speaker 1: they just got complacent in this game and maybe just
- 8:12Speaker 1: took their foot off the gas too soon and got caught.
- 8:15Speaker 1: So they're the better team, They're gonna be the team
- 8:17Speaker 1: with the adjustments to make. They actually lost the turnover
- 8:19Speaker 1: battle at home, so these are things Minnesota could definitely
- 8:23Speaker 1: clean up. I mean, they can fix this three point defense,
- 8:26Speaker 1: come out with more intensity there. They could fix the
- 8:29Speaker 1: mistakes a bit too. The rebounding battle is actually even
- 8:32Speaker 1: as well, which is a little bit strange. So I
- 8:36Speaker 1: think it's gonna be a game where Minnesota is the
- 8:38Speaker 1: team that makes the adjustments, man, and they're the better
- 8:41Speaker 1: team here. They were the better team in both of
- 8:42Speaker 1: those first two games. It's just they yeah again they
- 8:47Speaker 1: I think they just got a little bit too secure
- 8:49Speaker 1: in that lead in the first game and wound up
- 8:51Speaker 1: blowing it. So and the line I think is fine here.
- 8:53Speaker 1: I think they're a pretty substantial favorite in these games
- 8:56Speaker 1: at home. In game two, well, they were seven and
- 8:58Speaker 1: a half point favorite in Game two somewhere between like
- 9:01Speaker 1: eight and a half. Seven and a half is probably
- 9:03Speaker 1: about accurate from Minnesota at home. So the line being
- 9:06Speaker 1: about three and a half four here it makes sense.
- 9:09Speaker 1: I mean, Phoenix, well, no team has really a ton
- 9:12Speaker 1: of home court advantage in the WNBA, Like you probably
- 9:15Speaker 1: only get like a couple points, maybe just because it's
- 9:18Speaker 1: the playoffs, So the line is about right here. But
- 9:22Speaker 1: I just think it's gonna be a spot where Minnesota
- 9:25Speaker 1: does make the adjustments. Man, you really don't need them
- 9:27Speaker 1: to win by that much in this game, so I
- 9:29Speaker 1: think they can do it. I know Phoenix is pretty
- 9:31Speaker 1: good at home. Fifteen and seven Minnesota, that was only
- 9:34Speaker 1: their third loss at home all season. I know they're
- 9:37Speaker 1: on the road here where they were a little bit
- 9:39Speaker 1: more beatable on the road, but they still have a
- 9:42Speaker 1: pretty solid road record too, So we'll go with Minnesota
- 9:45Speaker 1: in the WNBA. Let's go to Major League Baseball here.
- 9:50Speaker 1: This is gonna take a while. We have afternoon baseball
- 9:54Speaker 1: here because of course we do, because it's Wrigley Field.
- 9:57Speaker 1: This is what happened Saint Louis at the CUB in
- 10:00Speaker 1: this one. Cubs are a little bit of a disadvantage
- 10:03Speaker 1: because they are coming off a series where they did
- 10:05Speaker 1: play yesterday. We got the Mets correct in the game yesterday.
- 10:09Speaker 1: Saint Louis was off yesterday, but they are traveling in
- 10:12Speaker 1: it from San Francisco, so Saint Louis does have more rest.
- 10:17Speaker 1: But they did also lose a three game win streak there,
- 10:20Speaker 1: so sometimes when a team loses a win streak, they
- 10:23Speaker 1: tend to potentially be hung over in the next game.
- 10:26Speaker 1: But I think Saint Louis will show up for this
- 10:28Speaker 1: it is their last series. It is against the Cubs.
- 10:31Speaker 1: Saint Louis knows they're not going anywhere, so they might
- 10:33Speaker 1: show up for a series against the Cubs. The Cubs,
- 10:35Speaker 1: I believe, are essentially locked into the five seed or
- 10:38Speaker 1: EXAs the four seed in the playoffs, so I think
- 10:42Speaker 1: that's pretty much where they are. So neither of these
- 10:44Speaker 1: teams actually have a ton of motivation here. Saint Louis
- 10:46Speaker 1: might have a little bit more motivation because the Cubs
- 10:49Speaker 1: are already getting ready to play in the playoffs, where
- 10:51Speaker 1: it's Saint Louis. This is their last series of the year,
- 10:55Speaker 1: so I think Saint Louis might actually show up with
- 10:58Speaker 1: a little bit extra motivation. So my first reaction to
- 11:01Speaker 1: this was maybe I want to look towards Saint Louis here.
- 11:03Speaker 1: Saint Louis actually does have the better bullpen as well.
- 11:06Speaker 1: Hold on, let me just make sure my voice is
- 11:09Speaker 1: UH is doing all right here, my mic I always
- 11:11Speaker 1: forget to mike check once I go live. Let me
- 11:15Speaker 1: make sure of that right now. But yeah, Saint Louis
- 11:18Speaker 1: does have the better bullpen out of these tool though
- 11:19Speaker 1: both bullpens are all right, But of course Saint Louis
- 11:22Speaker 1: does have the more rested bullpen coming into this game
- 11:24Speaker 1: as well. They do not have the better offense, though
- 11:28Speaker 1: the Cubs have the better offense, even though they haven't
- 11:30Speaker 1: been as good recently. As far as the bullpen usage,
- 11:33Speaker 1: we know Saint Louis was off yesterday. The Cubs haven't
- 11:36Speaker 1: used a ton of theirs. They used three relief pitchers yesterday.
- 11:40Speaker 1: Saint Louis still gets the edge there starting pitching. On
- 11:44Speaker 1: the surface, it doesn't look like Saint Louis would have
- 11:46Speaker 1: the edge in the starting pitching with Miles Mikolis pitching
- 11:51Speaker 1: very mediocre pitcher getting up there in age for sure,
- 11:54Speaker 1: A four point seven to six ERA this year one
- 11:57Speaker 1: point three to three whip. He is way worse on
- 11:59Speaker 1: the road six point three to three roady RA. He's
- 12:03Speaker 1: actually been a little bit better this month A three ERA.
- 12:06Speaker 1: He's allowed two or fewer earned runs in all four starts,
- 12:08Speaker 1: actually the last five starts he's been able to do that,
- 12:11Speaker 1: so he's been decent over that stretch. He faced some
- 12:14Speaker 1: pretty decent offenses this month too, the A's Seattle Milwaukee,
- 12:19Speaker 1: but he's not striking out a lot of guys, though,
- 12:21Speaker 1: that isn't really what he does ten to four strike
- 12:23Speaker 1: up walk ratio, just a low strikeout rate, but again,
- 12:27Speaker 1: he's not really a strikeout pitcher, so you can maybe
- 12:29Speaker 1: give him a pass for that. Against the Cubs, he
- 12:32Speaker 1: does not have good numbers though, and they have a
- 12:34Speaker 1: lot of history against him in two hundred at bats.
- 12:36Speaker 1: He does have a good strike out walk ratio against
- 12:38Speaker 1: them though, thirty three to five, but he's allow of
- 12:41Speaker 1: three ten average and eight forty seven ops to them,
- 12:44Speaker 1: and PCA has some ridiculous stats against some if you
- 12:48Speaker 1: want to look for player props, which I don't mention
- 12:50Speaker 1: a whole lot anymore. But he's six for seven off
- 12:53Speaker 1: amiklus with four home runs. That is unbelievable, So maybe
- 12:58Speaker 1: something to look for there, But I don't really the
- 13:00Speaker 1: Cubs hitting to be that focused in this game, to
- 13:03Speaker 1: be honest, because they're already looking ahead to the playoffs
- 13:05Speaker 1: in my opinion, which might become even more of a
- 13:08Speaker 1: factor in the last game, so I would be paying
- 13:11Speaker 1: attention to that. The last game of this series. It's
- 13:14Speaker 1: going to be Saint Louis's absolute last game of the season.
- 13:17Speaker 1: The Cubs are going to be looking ahead to the playoffs,
- 13:18Speaker 1: so that is definitely a spot where maybe you want
- 13:20Speaker 1: to look for Saint Louis. This one is not going
- 13:23Speaker 1: to be a play for me though. In this game.
- 13:25Speaker 1: Colin Ray is pitching for the Cubs. He is the
- 13:28Speaker 1: better of these two pitchers. He's had a decent season
- 13:30Speaker 1: four point one ERA, one point two eight whip home
- 13:34Speaker 1: and road splits are almost exactly the same. He's been
- 13:37Speaker 1: good this month, allowing three or few earned runs and
- 13:40Speaker 1: all of his starts twenty five to three strikeout walk
- 13:42Speaker 1: ratio three point three two EIRA. Although he's lost his
- 13:46Speaker 1: last three starts or the Cubs have lost those three,
- 13:50Speaker 1: very little run support from the Cubs for him in
- 13:52Speaker 1: those games, thankfully, because I went against him at one
- 13:55Speaker 1: of those games. In the last one against Cincinnati, he
- 13:58Speaker 1: somehow exploded for eleven strikeouts and allowed one ear run
- 14:02Speaker 1: in that one, but we still won because Hunter Green
- 14:05Speaker 1: still outpitched him and had a complete game. Ray does
- 14:09Speaker 1: do well against Saint Louis. It's sixty two at bats
- 14:12Speaker 1: thirteen to eight strike a walk ratio is not good,
- 14:14Speaker 1: but a one sixty one average allowed in four ninety
- 14:16Speaker 1: nine oh ps that's really good. So Saint Louis has
- 14:19Speaker 1: not been able to hit him in the past, so
- 14:22Speaker 1: that's the issue with this is I think the situation motivationally,
- 14:25Speaker 1: I think it's better for Saint Louis here, but the
- 14:29Speaker 1: pitching matchup is just in favor of the Cubs here,
- 14:31Speaker 1: so I don't really want to deal with it. I
- 14:34Speaker 1: do think Saint Louis has the bullpen edge. I mean,
- 14:35Speaker 1: if you really want to go with Saint Louis based
- 14:37Speaker 1: on them having rest plus, you know, just rest in
- 14:42Speaker 1: motivation here, you could take a shot with it moneyline
- 14:46Speaker 1: full game or maybe run line full game. You want
- 14:49Speaker 1: to go full game if you take Saint Louis, because
- 14:51Speaker 1: I think their biggest disadvantage here is the starting pitching matchup.
- 14:55Speaker 1: Cubs are now for minus one seventy one sixty three
- 14:58Speaker 1: on the money line, eighty eight percent of tickets, ninety
- 15:00Speaker 1: percent of the cash on them. They are very public here,
- 15:03Speaker 1: so I wouldn't really have much of an issue agreeing
- 15:06Speaker 1: with fading the Cubs here. That would be my lean
- 15:09Speaker 1: in this game, but it's not strong. Jordan, what's up man?
- 15:13Speaker 1: Thanks for hanging out again. All right? We got Chicago
- 15:17Speaker 1: White Sox at Washington Washington I believe was off yesterday too,
- 15:20Speaker 1: But they are turning home from a road trip. But
- 15:22Speaker 1: they did stay on the East coast Mets Atlanta is
- 15:25Speaker 1: where they were. I always talk about when teams are
- 15:29Speaker 1: turning home from road trips, it can be a distracted
- 15:31Speaker 1: spot because you've been away from home. You have to
- 15:32Speaker 1: get back to home life. Especially a team that's going
- 15:34Speaker 1: nowhere like Washington, they can lapse and focus and not
- 15:38Speaker 1: be really focused. So this is the final series of
- 15:41Speaker 1: the season, so maybe there is reason to show up
- 15:44Speaker 1: just for one final series here. Obviously, both these teams
- 15:48Speaker 1: are going nowhere. White Sox maybe in a little bit
- 15:51Speaker 1: of an extra disadvantage because not only did they play yesterday,
- 15:54Speaker 1: but they lost to the Yankees again in a close game.
- 15:58Speaker 1: Or the White Sox had the lead in that game
- 16:00Speaker 1: three to one in like the middle of the game.
- 16:02Speaker 1: And I'm not happy about this. Obviously, the Yankees wound
- 16:04Speaker 1: up winning the White Sox blue leads in two of
- 16:07Speaker 1: the three games in that series. Not happy about it
- 16:10Speaker 1: at all. So the White Sox did have to play yesterday, Well,
- 16:13Speaker 1: Washington at least was off. Washington's bullpen is bad. Both
- 16:18Speaker 1: these bullpens are pretty bad. Washington's is at least rested,
- 16:21Speaker 1: but it is a very bad bullpen. The White Sox
- 16:24Speaker 1: have the better bullpen, and they use a little bit
- 16:26Speaker 1: of it yesterday, though I still think that Washington's is
- 16:29Speaker 1: so bad that the White Sox probably still have a bullpen.
- 16:31Speaker 1: Atch here, both offenses are bad. Probably the White Sox
- 16:35Speaker 1: offense is the slightly better one, although let me see here. Wait, yeah,
- 16:41Speaker 1: wrong tab yet again. Yeah, White Sox third worst offense here.
- 16:46Speaker 1: Washington is twenty fifth, so not that much better with
- 16:50Speaker 1: the White Sox being twenty eighth. That's in ops for
- 16:53Speaker 1: the team on the season. Starting pitching here, a couple
- 16:57Speaker 1: of pitchers that we don't really know exactly who they
- 16:59Speaker 1: are at this point. I don't think Yenderis Gomez is
- 17:02Speaker 1: pitching for the White Sox. They picked him up in
- 17:04Speaker 1: the middle of the season. He's actually not been terrible
- 17:08Speaker 1: with the White Sox overall numbers this year four point
- 17:11Speaker 1: nine to two ERA, one point three to nine WHIP.
- 17:13Speaker 1: Nothing about that is good really, five point six' four ROAD,
- 17:17Speaker 1: era so he's not as good on the. Road he's
- 17:19Speaker 1: been okay this. Month the four point four to three
- 17:22Speaker 1: E rn eighteen to three strike a walk ratio is pretty,
- 17:25Speaker 1: good so his command has been pretty on. Point he's
- 17:28Speaker 1: not going too deep into these, games but he has
- 17:30Speaker 1: gone at least five innings in all the games this.
- 17:32Speaker 1: Month so he's pitching. Okay he's going up Against. Washington
- 17:36Speaker 1: DO i think have never faced? Him, yeah so he
- 17:38Speaker 1: has a little bit of an extra edge year Because
- 17:40Speaker 1: washington has never seen him. BEFORE i talk about that
- 17:44Speaker 1: when hitters haven't seen a starting, pitcher but for sometimes
- 17:46Speaker 1: they struggle to figure him. Out it kind of gets
- 17:48Speaker 1: exacerbated if the pitcher is actually. Good. THOUGH i don't
- 17:51Speaker 1: know if we know If gomez is actually good or.
- 17:53Speaker 1: Not but he's pitching okay right. Now he's going up
- 17:56Speaker 1: Against Katee, cavali who is Starting washington. Here he made
- 18:03Speaker 1: one start in twenty twenty two and then he must
- 18:05Speaker 1: have been dealing with injuries or something because that was
- 18:07Speaker 1: the only time he pitched in the majors prior to this.
- 18:10Speaker 1: Year this, year he's been really up and. Down four
- 18:13Speaker 1: point two to THREE, era one point four to three
- 18:16Speaker 1: whip that is definitely too high of a. Whip he
- 18:18Speaker 1: is good at home, though two point one to one HOME,
- 18:21Speaker 1: era and he's been okay this month with a three
- 18:23Speaker 1: point one to FIVE, era but his walk rate has
- 18:26Speaker 1: been high twelve to seven strikeout walk race here this.
- 18:29Speaker 1: Month so the strikeout rate is low and the walk
- 18:32Speaker 1: rate is high just because he walked four guys Against.
- 18:34Speaker 1: Pittsburgh other than, that it wasn't too, Bad so he's
- 18:37Speaker 1: not really a strikeout. Pitcher but he's allowed few. Runs
- 18:40Speaker 1: he's allowed three or few earned runs and every start
- 18:42Speaker 1: this month on actually all but two starts that he's
- 18:46Speaker 1: made so far this. Season out of nine starts which
- 18:50Speaker 1: his team has actually, won what is that seven of
- 18:54Speaker 1: the nine starts that's kind of, crazy all four this,
- 18:57Speaker 1: Month So washington is winning behind. Him he's going up
- 19:01Speaker 1: against this pretty Weak White sox offense, here and they
- 19:04Speaker 1: have not seen him before, either so he might have
- 19:06Speaker 1: an advantage as, well going up against a team that's
- 19:09Speaker 1: never faced him. Before SO i think this is kind
- 19:12Speaker 1: of a sneaky under type of game, here, MAN i
- 19:15Speaker 1: don't really want to do. IT i don't know IF
- 19:17Speaker 1: i really trust either of these pitchers, necessarily THOUGH i
- 19:20Speaker 1: Know cavali is coming off a good start against The
- 19:22Speaker 1: mets on the. Road he shut them out for five,
- 19:25Speaker 1: innings which is pretty, impressive especially against a team THAT i,
- 19:28Speaker 1: mean that's a team that can hit and needs to
- 19:30Speaker 1: be playing with some motivation right. Now so it's all.
- 19:34Speaker 1: INTERESTING i, Mean washington's very public, though ninety three percent,
- 19:37Speaker 1: tickets ninety five percent of the cash on. THEM i
- 19:39Speaker 1: don't want to touch. That they're up for minus one
- 19:41Speaker 1: twenty five to minus one twenty, seven BUT i think
- 19:43Speaker 1: the under is probably my preference in this. Game we
- 19:46Speaker 1: have a lot of tickets on the over ninety two,
- 19:48Speaker 1: percent eighty eight percent of the, cash so less of
- 19:51Speaker 1: the cash at. Least total's just kind of sitting there
- 19:53Speaker 1: at eight and a, half not really. Moving maybe under
- 19:57Speaker 1: first five innings is the better, approach, though because neither
- 20:00Speaker 1: bullpen is really something you really want to bank. ON
- 20:02Speaker 1: i would say, SO i think first five under is
- 20:04Speaker 1: probably the WAY i would look in that. Game minnesota At.
- 20:08Speaker 1: Philadelphia philadelphia did play. YESTERDAY i believe they shut out In. Miami.
- 20:12Speaker 1: PHILADELPHIA i, mean obviously they already clinched their division a
- 20:15Speaker 1: long time. Ago THEY i think technically could still Catch.
- 20:20Speaker 1: MILWAUKEE i think there are two games Behind, milwaukee but
- 20:22Speaker 1: it's pretty unlikely to. Happen So philadelphia is pretty much
- 20:25Speaker 1: locked into the two seed in The National league, here
- 20:29Speaker 1: so maybe not really a huge motivational spot for them.
- 20:32Speaker 1: Here minnesota played yesterday as. Well both teams played. Yesterday
- 20:37Speaker 1: minnesota is traveling WHEREAS i Believe philadelphia is staying at.
- 20:40Speaker 1: Home minnesota traveling in From, texas so a little bit
- 20:43Speaker 1: less of a good spot From minnesota. Here The minnesota
- 20:46Speaker 1: actually started playing a little bit better over those those
- 20:48Speaker 1: last few, games But minnesota at a travel disadvantage. Here
- 20:52Speaker 1: both of these bullpens are. Bad minnesota used a few
- 20:55Speaker 1: relief pitchers. Yesterday philadelphia also used a, few soch isn't too,
- 21:00Speaker 1: high but these are bad. Bullpens minnesota's is really. Bad
- 21:04Speaker 1: they're twenty sixth in overall bullpenning Ra phillies are, twentieth
- 21:09Speaker 1: so The phillies actually have the slightly better bullpend. Here
- 21:12Speaker 1: let me look at the starting pitching matchup Where minnesota's
- 21:14Speaker 1: best pitcher is Pitching Joe rye and good season for
- 21:18Speaker 1: him three point four to seven E ra one point
- 21:20Speaker 1: zero four. Whip he's basically almost the same home and,
- 21:24Speaker 1: away but he hasn't been good. Recently, man it seems
- 21:27Speaker 1: like he's kind of just packed it In he's allowed
- 21:30Speaker 1: four or more on runs now in four of his
- 21:32Speaker 1: last six. Outings that's not a good. Sign this, month
- 21:36Speaker 1: he has a NINE era and an eleven to eight
- 21:38Speaker 1: strike out walk, ratio so he seems to just be
- 21:41Speaker 1: really just unfocused right. Now it seems like he's just
- 21:45Speaker 1: pretty much done for the. Season he allowed four home
- 21:47Speaker 1: runs last time out Against, cleveland which not helpful to
- 21:51Speaker 1: me as A Red sox. Fans The Red sox are
- 21:52Speaker 1: still trying to get a wildcard spot here In. Minnesota
- 21:57Speaker 1: wasn't able to Beat cleveland like at. ALL i think
- 21:58Speaker 1: they won one, game and that's The Joe ryan. Game
- 22:03Speaker 1: was part of that doublehead or sweep For. Cleveland. There
- 22:06Speaker 1: cleveland absolutely ridiculous that they're fairly likely to make the.
- 22:10Speaker 1: Playoffs Now Joe ryan up against what do we even,
- 22:15Speaker 1: say who are we playing? Against? Philadelphia? Right this is
- 22:18Speaker 1: a weird, matchup man weird inter league, Game Minnesota. Philadelphia Joe.
- 22:22Speaker 1: Ryan Actually philadelphia has never seen him, before which is fairly.
- 22:27Speaker 1: STRANGE i Know Joe, RYAN i think he's pitched his
- 22:30Speaker 1: entire career in The American, league yet it's all been With.
- 22:33Speaker 1: Minnesota it's still a little bit. Weird though That philly
- 22:35Speaker 1: hasn't seen him, before but that does mean it's an
- 22:37Speaker 1: advantage To Rye AND i mean it really just LIKE
- 22:40Speaker 1: i said last, time it depends Is ryan going to show?
- 22:43Speaker 1: Up focus because this is going to be his last
- 22:45Speaker 1: start of the, Season, like maybe he'll actually show up
- 22:48Speaker 1: because you don't want to end your season on an embarrassing,
- 22:50Speaker 1: Note so maybe he will show up for this. One
- 22:53Speaker 1: he does get to pitch against a good team. Here
- 22:55Speaker 1: they haven't seen him, before so if he does show
- 22:57Speaker 1: up to, pitch that is an extra advantage To. Ryan
- 23:00Speaker 1: we already know he's. Good we have a lot of
- 23:01Speaker 1: history that tells us That philly might struggle to hit
- 23:05Speaker 1: him if he actually shows up and wants to pitch
- 23:08Speaker 1: well here to finish his season on a good, note
- 23:11Speaker 1: and maybe he will be motivated to do. That Aaron
- 23:14Speaker 1: nola is pitching For. Philadelphia he's had a difficult. Season,
- 23:18Speaker 1: Man he's coming back FROM i Believe Tommy john. Surgery
- 23:21Speaker 1: he used to be a pretty solid pitcher prior to
- 23:23Speaker 1: the injury and hasn't really bounced back from. It six
- 23:27Speaker 1: point four to SIX era this year one point four
- 23:30Speaker 1: or five whip not. Good he's not much better at
- 23:33Speaker 1: home either is the ra six at, home although he
- 23:36Speaker 1: is better at home than on the. Road still this
- 23:39Speaker 1: month six point four or FIVE, era twenty two to
- 23:42Speaker 1: seven strike out walk, ratio decent strike out walk, radio
- 23:46Speaker 1: but still just pretty bad. Man he's a lot four
- 23:48Speaker 1: more and runs in four of his last five games
- 23:52Speaker 1: and five of the last, seven actually six of the last.
- 23:55Speaker 1: Eight he's just not pitching. Well he had one really
- 23:57Speaker 1: nice shutout performance for six innings against The mets mixed in,
- 24:00Speaker 1: there but just kind of went right back into bad.
- 24:04Speaker 1: Form SO i don't know how Trustworthy nola is right,
- 24:06Speaker 1: now even THOUGH i know he's up against a pretty
- 24:09Speaker 1: Bad minnesota. Offense, Here phillies have the way better offense
- 24:12Speaker 1: of these two. Teams his numbers are decent in a
- 24:16Speaker 1: fairly small sample size Against minnesota and twenty nine career
- 24:19Speaker 1: at bats eleven to four strike a walk ratio is not.
- 24:22Speaker 1: Great two forty one batting every seven to thirty seven
- 24:25Speaker 1: oh ps allowed not terrible numbers. There so matchup, WISE i,
- 24:30Speaker 1: mean it does still look Like Joe ryan does have
- 24:32Speaker 1: the matchup edge There. Philly LIKE i, SAID i don't
- 24:36Speaker 1: Think philly has a whole lot to play for in
- 24:38Speaker 1: this final. Series here is they're pretty much locked into
- 24:40Speaker 1: their playoff. Spot the money is Fading philadelphia down for
- 24:43Speaker 1: minus what sixty three to minus one forty six eighty
- 24:46Speaker 1: three percent of tickets seventy two percent cash on. Them
- 24:49Speaker 1: so reverse line moment against a Public phillies. Team you,
- 24:52Speaker 1: know the public's gonna be on The, phillies even if
- 24:54Speaker 1: it is a pitcher who's really, struggling because maybe they
- 24:57Speaker 1: Remember nola being good in the. Past THEY i want
- 25:00Speaker 1: nothing to do with This minnesota. Team the public likes
- 25:02Speaker 1: the team with the better, offense et. Cetera but, again
- 25:06Speaker 1: it's about motivation, here AND i do think If ryan
- 25:10Speaker 1: does show, up he should be able to Outpitch nola,
- 25:12Speaker 1: here SO i would probably lead To minnesota first five,
- 25:16Speaker 1: innings ONLY i don't really want to do anything with their,
- 25:18Speaker 1: bullpen So minnesota money line first five innings would probably
- 25:21Speaker 1: be the WAY i would look at. That baltimore at The.
- 25:24Speaker 1: Yankees The yankees are still tied With toronto as both
- 25:27Speaker 1: teams won, yesterday which means The Red sox are done
- 25:31Speaker 1: as far as potentially winning the, division ALTHOUGH i told
- 25:33Speaker 1: you they weren't gonna win the DIVISION i told you
- 25:36Speaker 1: that The yankees were a good shot to try to
- 25:40Speaker 1: get them to win the division when they were at
- 25:42Speaker 1: plus two eighty about a month. Ago they're tied With,
- 25:45Speaker 1: toronto and The toronto does have the, tiebreaker which is
- 25:47Speaker 1: the head to, Head so coming down the stretch, here
- 25:51Speaker 1: OBVIOUSLY i would prefer That toronto wins wins the division
- 25:54Speaker 1: BECAUSE i don't WANT i don't want The yankees to do.
- 25:57Speaker 1: Anything yankees have won five games in a row and
- 26:00Speaker 1: they've won eight of their last. Nine they just swept
- 26:02Speaker 1: The White. SOX i, mean they get some easy series
- 26:05Speaker 1: to end. This they get to Face baltimore again at home.
- 26:08Speaker 1: Here they did just take three out of four From.
- 26:10Speaker 1: Baltimore But baltimore might show up Because, BALTIMORE i, mean
- 26:15Speaker 1: it's a series against The. Yankees it's their last. Series
- 26:18Speaker 1: so even, though, yeah The yankees are fighting for the,
- 26:20Speaker 1: DIVISION i think both teams will be motivated. Here baltimore
- 26:23Speaker 1: just got swept or didn't get swept excuse they lost
- 26:26Speaker 1: three out of four to The yankees In, Baltimore So
- 26:29Speaker 1: baltimore might show up for this. One and by the,
- 26:32Speaker 1: way the pitching matchup today is the same one that
- 26:35Speaker 1: was the one win for The. ORIOLES i believe in
- 26:38Speaker 1: that last. Series i'm pretty sure it. Was AND i
- 26:39Speaker 1: gave Out orioles first five innings in that one and
- 26:42Speaker 1: that was also a. Winner and it was this same pitching.
- 26:45Speaker 1: Matchup both these bullpens are. Bad baltimore used four relief
- 26:51Speaker 1: pitchers yes today The yankees used only. Three baltimore has
- 26:55Speaker 1: the worst of the two, bullpens, though So yankees actually
- 26:57Speaker 1: have a bullpen. Edge yankees do have the better off
- 27:00Speaker 1: and starting. Pitching, PROBABLY i still give the advantage To
- 27:05Speaker 1: baltimore as far as the starting. PITCHING i think it
- 27:07Speaker 1: was more significant when the game was In, baltimore, though
- 27:11Speaker 1: but we did get the win on the first five
- 27:12Speaker 1: innings with this matchup last. Time Trevor rodgers pitching For
- 27:16Speaker 1: baltimore been a nice surprise for. Them hasn't pitched a
- 27:19Speaker 1: lot this, season but he has done. Well one point
- 27:22Speaker 1: three to FIVE era for, him point eight seven. Whip
- 27:26Speaker 1: he is a little bit worse on the, road one
- 27:28Speaker 1: point six SIX, thera still really. Good he's allowed one
- 27:32Speaker 1: or fewer earned run in every start going all the
- 27:36Speaker 1: way back Into, july and he's allowed two or fewer
- 27:39Speaker 1: in all but one. Start all, season he has not
- 27:43Speaker 1: a lot more than three in any. Stars this, month
- 27:45Speaker 1: he has a one point ONE. Era his walk number
- 27:48Speaker 1: did go up a little bit nineteen to seven strikeout walk,
- 27:50Speaker 1: ratio just because he walked four Against, toronto but that
- 27:53Speaker 1: didn't concern me going with the first five innings last time,
- 27:56Speaker 1: out where he one hit and shut out The yankees
- 27:59Speaker 1: for six innings that time and outpitched his counterpart, Here Will.
- 28:03Speaker 1: Warren so he did do well in that when we
- 28:05Speaker 1: got the win on that one in the first five.
- 28:07Speaker 1: Innings he is going up Against Will warren again. Here
- 28:11Speaker 1: warren mediocre season for him for The. Yankees four point
- 28:14Speaker 1: three to FIVE, era one point three to seven. Whip
- 28:18Speaker 1: he is way better at home, though so part of
- 28:19Speaker 1: the reason WHY i liked that one the last time
- 28:22Speaker 1: out is because he was pitching on the. Road he's
- 28:25Speaker 1: not as good on the. Road his ra at home
- 28:27Speaker 1: is significantly better, though three point two eight at. Home
- 28:31Speaker 1: he's been okay this month, overall four point six FOUR,
- 28:34Speaker 1: era fifteen to four strike a walk. Razio he wasn't
- 28:37Speaker 1: awful in that starting Against. Baltimore The yankees fielding was
- 28:41Speaker 1: bad behind. Him The yankees fielding really is not that
- 28:43Speaker 1: good man with A chisholm And volpi. There he allowed
- 28:48Speaker 1: one earned run in that, outing but he did put
- 28:51Speaker 1: some guys on base a couple of on eurn runs,
- 28:53Speaker 1: scored so he did still get outpitched And rogers lasted
- 28:57Speaker 1: longer in that. Game BUT i do Think warren probably
- 28:59Speaker 1: should do better at home than he did on the road.
- 29:01Speaker 1: There but part of the reason WHY i did also
- 29:04Speaker 1: Fade warren in that game is because he actually doesn't
- 29:06Speaker 1: do that well Against. Baltimore he now has thirty six
- 29:09Speaker 1: at bats against, them seven to six strikeout walk, ratio
- 29:13Speaker 1: which is not, good two seventy eight batting average allowed
- 29:16Speaker 1: in eight to fifty three, ops So baltimore is able
- 29:19Speaker 1: to hit him a little. Bit oh AND i forgot
- 29:21Speaker 1: to go To rogers' numbers against The, yankees my. Mistake
- 29:26Speaker 1: rogers against The yankees does have good numbers and fifty
- 29:28Speaker 1: two at bats fifteen to eight strike out walk ratio isn't,
- 29:31Speaker 1: good but he's telling them to a one to thirty
- 29:33Speaker 1: five batting average at four to sixty two oh, ps
- 29:35Speaker 1: which is really impressive against this. Offense SO i do
- 29:39Speaker 1: Think rogers does still have the edge in this, matchup
- 29:42Speaker 1: SO i WOULD i would still have the same lean
- 29:45Speaker 1: THAT i had in the other, game which would Be
- 29:47Speaker 1: baltimore in the first five innings, only BUT i don't
- 29:49Speaker 1: want to do it in this one where they're on the.
- 29:51Speaker 1: Road this. Time yankees look like they're actually getting some
- 29:54Speaker 1: of the. Money they're up for minus one to forty
- 29:55Speaker 1: five to minus one forty, six seventy four percent of,
- 29:58Speaker 1: tickets eighty seven percent of the cap on. THEM i
- 30:00Speaker 1: will just pass on the, game. Man tampa At, Toronto
- 30:04Speaker 1: i'm gonna give out a play on, that So i'll
- 30:06Speaker 1: skip that for. Now detroit At, boston My Boston Red.
- 30:10Speaker 1: Sox they're returning on from a road, trip but they
- 30:12Speaker 1: went To tampa And, toronto so they're not changing time zones,
- 30:16Speaker 1: here but still a road trip return spot where sometimes
- 30:19Speaker 1: the team can be a little bit distracted they have
- 30:22Speaker 1: to get back to home. Life but it is a
- 30:24Speaker 1: spot where The Red sox are still fighting for the
- 30:26Speaker 1: last wildcard. Spot, man it's basically Between Red Sox, detroit
- 30:31Speaker 1: Maybe cleveland If detroit gets somehow get back into first
- 30:34Speaker 1: place there And. Houston So, seattle by the, way is
- 30:39Speaker 1: clinch The Al west, now so something to consider, there
- 30:44Speaker 1: so wild the last wildcard spot is going to Be Red,
- 30:48Speaker 1: Sox houston Or, DETROIT i, believe so, YEAH i, MEAN
- 30:53Speaker 1: i think that's the way it works out Or, cleveland
- 30:56Speaker 1: depending on which one of the teams wins the. Division
- 30:58Speaker 1: so it is possible that any of those four teams
- 31:01Speaker 1: doesn't make the. PLAYOFFS i believe two of the four
- 31:04Speaker 1: will make the, playoffs If i'm not. Mistaken is that?
- 31:06Speaker 1: Right because we know that the playoffs are gonna be
- 31:08Speaker 1: at this, point we know it's gonna Be Toronto. SEATTLE
- 31:10Speaker 1: i Mean, toronto there's no way they're gonna wind up
- 31:13Speaker 1: falling out and the YANK i Believe toronto and The
- 31:15Speaker 1: yankees have already clinched a playoff. Spot they can't not
- 31:18Speaker 1: make the playoffs at this. Point it's just one is
- 31:20Speaker 1: gonna be a wild card and the other win the.
- 31:21Speaker 1: Division so we Have toronto and The Yankees. Seattle what
- 31:25Speaker 1: AM i missing? Here so it's, yeah so it's those. Three,
- 31:30Speaker 1: oh but THEN i guess we need how many how
- 31:33Speaker 1: many wildcards even make? It? Now three or? Right SO
- 31:35Speaker 1: i guess only one of those teams is gonna be
- 31:36Speaker 1: left out of the. Playoffs, yeah so, Right so whoever
- 31:40Speaker 1: wins the division Between detroit And cleveland would get, in
- 31:43Speaker 1: and THEN i think only one of those teams will
- 31:45Speaker 1: be left. Out so it's gonna Be, Boston, Houston detroit Or.
- 31:48Speaker 1: CLEVELAND i think one of those teams will not make the,
- 31:50Speaker 1: playoffs and then the three that are already in Or,
- 31:53Speaker 1: toronto The, yankees And Seattle. Crazy it's crazy how that works. Out,
- 32:00Speaker 1: Anyway Red sox could be a little bit, distracted but
- 32:02Speaker 1: because they are up against one of the teams they're
- 32:05Speaker 1: fighting for a wild card spot right, now which Is,
- 32:07Speaker 1: detroit they can't afford to not be focused, here SO
- 32:10Speaker 1: i don't think the home return distraction spot really gonna
- 32:13Speaker 1: be that much of an issue. Here detroit is coming
- 32:16Speaker 1: in From, cleveland so they're traveling as. Well although the
- 32:19Speaker 1: travel spot is still worse for The Red, sox there's
- 32:21Speaker 1: no doubt about. That Red sox do have the better,
- 32:23Speaker 1: bullpen and they didn't use a ton of it. Yesterday
- 32:26Speaker 1: detroit used more of their bullpen. Yesterday actual they use
- 32:29Speaker 1: a lot of it because they had a bullpen game,
- 32:32Speaker 1: Yesterday so not really a great spot for The detroit bullpen.
- 32:36Speaker 1: Here detroit's bullpen has kind of tailed off a little bit.
- 32:39Speaker 1: TOO i think where are they? At Red sox are
- 32:41Speaker 1: a third overall and bullpenny Al Righty, detroit where are they?
- 32:44Speaker 1: At they were all the way down to, Seventeen so
- 32:46Speaker 1: The Red sox have a pretty significant bullpen edge. Here,
- 32:50Speaker 1: offense The Red sox actually have the better offense as.
- 32:52Speaker 1: Well they're at eighth in overall ops and THEN i
- 32:54Speaker 1: know they're a little bit worse Without Roman Anthony detroit
- 32:57Speaker 1: not far behind At twelfth's pretty close between the two.
- 33:01Speaker 1: OFFENSES i do think The Red sox have a starting pitching.
- 33:04Speaker 1: Edge Casey mize is pitching For. DETROIT i keep saying
- 33:07Speaker 1: THAT i don't think he's as good as his numbers
- 33:09Speaker 1: would make him. Appear three point nine ONE. Era he's
- 33:13Speaker 1: had a good, season one point two eight, whip not,
- 33:16Speaker 1: horrible although it's a little bit. High but the advanced
- 33:18Speaker 1: analytics guys are kind of all over. It man Saying
- 33:21Speaker 1: miz is not as good as his numbers, look AND i,
- 33:23Speaker 1: agree if you look at his career, numbers he's not
- 33:25Speaker 1: really this. Good he's a little bit worse on the
- 33:28Speaker 1: road four point one to five road Era detroit a
- 33:31Speaker 1: bit worse on the road as, well so at least
- 33:33Speaker 1: The Red sox get to finish at home where they're
- 33:35Speaker 1: forty six and thirty. Two detroit is actually above five
- 33:39Speaker 1: hundred on the road though at forty and thirty. Eight but,
- 33:42Speaker 1: Anyway miz he's been okay though over the last month
- 33:46Speaker 1: twenty four to this month twenty four to four strike
- 33:48Speaker 1: a walk, ratio did pitch well against The mets And
- 33:51Speaker 1: yankees this month three point six to EIGHTY, ra so
- 33:54Speaker 1: he's been better this month than last. Month so he's
- 33:56Speaker 1: actually in good form right, now which does worry me
- 33:59Speaker 1: a little. Bit up against The Red. SOX i think
- 34:03Speaker 1: they've hit him okay thirty three at. Bats it's not
- 34:05Speaker 1: a huge sample, size but six to three strike a walk,
- 34:08Speaker 1: ratio three to zero three batting, average nine to eighty eight.
- 34:11Speaker 1: Ops so The Red sox have hit him okay in the,
- 34:14Speaker 1: past so maybe they will be able to do so again.
- 34:16Speaker 1: Here Kyle, harrison especially for The Red, sox he may
- 34:21Speaker 1: be the best component of That devers trade Because hicks
- 34:25Speaker 1: has not done. Well they traded Away, tibbs who maybe
- 34:28Speaker 1: may wind up being. Good it Was, tibbs, right AM
- 34:31Speaker 1: i getting that confused BECAUSE i FORGET i keep forgetting
- 34:33Speaker 1: which one is which, now BECAUSE i know The Red
- 34:35Speaker 1: sox had like that really good catching prospect that they
- 34:39Speaker 1: traded For crochet and then whatever the outfielder was that
- 34:43Speaker 1: they got in The devers, trade they traded for Fucking Dustin,
- 34:47Speaker 1: May i'm pretty, sure which is just a horrific trade
- 34:49Speaker 1: for The Red. Sox they never should have done. That
- 34:51Speaker 1: The devas TRADE i thought was additioned by subtraction, though
- 34:54Speaker 1: because they're Paying devs so. Much he's a head. Case
- 34:57Speaker 1: San francisco is not making the, playoffs so, whatever So
- 35:00Speaker 1: harrison might actually be pumped to be pitching for a contender.
- 35:03Speaker 1: Here he does have good numbers of this season between
- 35:05Speaker 1: pitching with The giants a little bit and with The Red.
- 35:08Speaker 1: Sox and he's still, young so he's still developing three
- 35:11Speaker 1: point five EIGHTY, ra one point one to NINE. Whip
- 35:13Speaker 1: that's pretty. Good he's been really bad at home nine
- 35:17Speaker 1: point four to FIVE, era but that was all With San.
- 35:20Speaker 1: FRANCISCO i know that's not good Because San francisco is
- 35:23Speaker 1: a pitcher friendly, park but the majority of his outings
- 35:26Speaker 1: have been on the road this. Year it's a very
- 35:28Speaker 1: small sample, size SO i don't really see how we
- 35:31Speaker 1: could take that much away from. It. Man he really
- 35:32Speaker 1: only had like six seven innings total at, home and
- 35:36Speaker 1: one of them was he just got bombed By San
- 35:38Speaker 1: diego and that was, like, really that's the only thing
- 35:41Speaker 1: That that's where his entire home era is coming. From
- 35:44Speaker 1: basically since being acquired by The Red. Sox The Red
- 35:46Speaker 1: sox had him in the miners for a. WHILE i
- 35:48Speaker 1: think they worked with him in the, miners decided it
- 35:51Speaker 1: was time to bring him, up and he's actually been
- 35:52Speaker 1: good since they brought him. Up he had a couple
- 35:54Speaker 1: of difficult tasks pitching at The a's and At Tampa,
- 35:57Speaker 1: bay and those are the two were ardiculous temporary stadiums
- 36:01Speaker 1: that are some of the most hit or friendly parks out.
- 36:03Speaker 1: There he went three shutout innings against The a's and
- 36:06Speaker 1: he went six innings last time out Against. Tampa made
- 36:09Speaker 1: a full start and allowed one ear and run to.
- 36:11Speaker 1: Them it's a good, sign. Man i'll only allowed one
- 36:13Speaker 1: ear and run over those combined nine innings seven to
- 36:15Speaker 1: two strike out walk, Ratio So harrison looked pretty good
- 36:19Speaker 1: in those. Outings that's a good. Sign and he's going
- 36:22Speaker 1: up Against. Detroit DO i believe he has never faced him,
- 36:24Speaker 1: before so another added edge. There, again when you have
- 36:26Speaker 1: a young pitcher like this that's unfamiliar to the opposing,
- 36:29Speaker 1: hitters they got to kind of figure him out on the.
- 36:31Speaker 1: Fly could be an advantage To harrison early. On SO
- 36:34Speaker 1: i do think The Red sox have an advantage as
- 36:36Speaker 1: far as that's. CONCERNED i think the matchup edge is
- 36:38Speaker 1: actually in favor of The Red sox across the board.
- 36:41Speaker 1: Here it's just a matter of can they overcome the
- 36:44Speaker 1: return home spot. Here And harrison is a, lefty so
- 36:48Speaker 1: sometimes that can kind of add to the unfamiliarity a
- 36:50Speaker 1: little bit, because for whatever, reason lefties kind of throw
- 36:53Speaker 1: from more unpredictable arm arm slots, whatever the angle is
- 36:57Speaker 1: a little bit harder to pick. Up sometimes the money
- 37:00Speaker 1: is coming in on The Red sox in this one
- 37:02Speaker 1: fifty three percent ticket seventy eight percent of the, cash
- 37:04Speaker 1: even though they initially went down from minus one thirty
- 37:07Speaker 1: five to minus one. Twenty don't know why that, was
- 37:09Speaker 1: but it does look like the money is coming in
- 37:11Speaker 1: on The Red, sox and the public is kind of
- 37:13Speaker 1: split on the, game so slightly into The Red, sox
- 37:17Speaker 1: AND i hope they get it. Done man as A
- 37:19Speaker 1: Red sox. Fan i've got my hat on backwards, Here
- 37:22Speaker 1: Tower GANG. Npc what's up man TO i, Mean, nate
- 37:26Speaker 1: what's up? Man Todkiv's. Maingo that's. Right thanks for hanging, out.
- 37:30Speaker 1: Guys all, right we Got mets At. Miami miami might
- 37:38Speaker 1: still show some motivation here just because they are playing
- 37:40Speaker 1: against teams in their division that are potentially at least
- 37:44Speaker 1: gonna make the. Playoffs so maybe a little bit of.
- 37:46Speaker 1: Motivation but The, METS i told you they were in
- 37:47Speaker 1: a difficult spot yesterday because they lost a long wind.
- 37:50Speaker 1: Streak they had a seven game win streak snapped Against
- 37:53Speaker 1: philadelphia and that can tend to hang you over a little.
- 37:56Speaker 1: Bit but they played pretty well, yesterday only losing one to,
- 37:59Speaker 1: Nothing SO i could see it going both. Ways Like
- 38:02Speaker 1: miami might show up in this game with some motivation
- 38:04Speaker 1: because it's the last series of the. Season they get
- 38:06Speaker 1: to face one of the better teams in the division
- 38:09Speaker 1: in The. Mets but they are also a bad team
- 38:11Speaker 1: returning home from a road trip coming off another big,
- 38:14Speaker 1: series so it's not exactly a good spot For. Miami
- 38:19Speaker 1: they went To texas and or excuse In, Colorado texas
- 38:22Speaker 1: And philadelphia on that road. Trip so they're returning home
- 38:24Speaker 1: from a long road. Trip, Man So miami might fall
- 38:27Speaker 1: into that return home distracted spot with not they know
- 38:32Speaker 1: they're not going, anywhere you, Know so are they gonna
- 38:34Speaker 1: be able to get motivated for The. Mets, maybe but
- 38:36Speaker 1: they are still returning home from that road. Trip it's
- 38:38Speaker 1: a difficult spot for. Them, man could be a distraction.
- 38:41Speaker 1: Spot AND i tell you these teams that are somewhat
- 38:44Speaker 1: bad teams in that bad spot returning home from a
- 38:47Speaker 1: long road. TRIP i said this About anaheim the other
- 38:49Speaker 1: day when we got that right on The. Royals if
- 38:51Speaker 1: that team is an, underdog it's especially a bad situation
- 38:55Speaker 1: and actually makes it even worse if they were off
- 38:57Speaker 1: the day before, that Although miami. Wasn't but, yeah like
- 39:01Speaker 1: that team tends to just kind of fall into that
- 39:03Speaker 1: bad spot. There The mets have to keep, playing, man
- 39:05Speaker 1: because they're still trying to maintain this wildcard. SPOT i
- 39:08Speaker 1: believe they're one game ahead of The. Reds, still both
- 39:12Speaker 1: teams won yesterday and the D backs, Lost so the
- 39:15Speaker 1: D backs are two games. Backs the D backs are almost.
- 39:18Speaker 1: Eliminated it's either gonna be The mets or The reds.
- 39:21Speaker 1: Here it is likely to be in The mets at this,
- 39:23Speaker 1: point but they still have to keep. Winning they are
- 39:25Speaker 1: traveling down To miami from The, cubs, though and they're
- 39:27Speaker 1: coming off a big series against The. Cubs so it's
- 39:31Speaker 1: not really a great spot for either team in my.
- 39:34Speaker 1: Opinion SO i worry about both teams really as far
- 39:38Speaker 1: as trying to wanted to back one team or the.
- 39:40Speaker 1: Other The mets used four relief pitchers. Yesterday miami also used.
- 39:46Speaker 1: Four The mets two have the better of the two.
- 39:47Speaker 1: Bullpens miami is really not very. Good mets have the
- 39:50Speaker 1: better offense as. Well starting pitching a little bit difficult
- 39:54Speaker 1: to figure out. Here The mets Have Brandon sprout, pitching
- 39:57Speaker 1: who IS i believe this is his rookie, season and,
- 40:00Speaker 1: yeah he's only pitched this. Season he's made three. Starts
- 40:03Speaker 1: he has a three point nine to FOUR era and
- 40:05Speaker 1: one point one to NINE, wit which is pretty. Good
- 40:07Speaker 1: when he came, IN i was worried, though because his
- 40:10Speaker 1: minor league numbers were pretty. Lousy So i'm, LIKE i
- 40:12Speaker 1: don't know what we're gonna get out of this, guy
- 40:14Speaker 1: even though he's fairly highly considered. Prospect but he's been.
- 40:19Speaker 1: Okay he has a fifteen to six strike out walk,
- 40:22Speaker 1: ratio which it's not, great but it's not. Awful had
- 40:26Speaker 1: two six inning performances to, start giving up three earned
- 40:30Speaker 1: runs At, cincinnati did walk too many guys four walks,
- 40:33Speaker 1: there but did pretty well, there and then he had
- 40:35Speaker 1: a six inning shutout Against, texas which was obviously, solid
- 40:38Speaker 1: even Though texas offense isn't. Good but he had a
- 40:42Speaker 1: bad start last time out Against, washington so kind of
- 40:44Speaker 1: regressed a little bit there with four earned runs a
- 40:47Speaker 1: lot of four innings at home to a fairly Weak washington.
- 40:50Speaker 1: Offense so five to two strike out walk ratio is
- 40:54Speaker 1: still all, right but he didn't do well in that.
- 40:56Speaker 1: Start maybe you could argue it was a bit of an.
- 40:57Speaker 1: Outlier he is still a decent young. Prospect it looks
- 41:01Speaker 1: like as far as what he's done so, far he's
- 41:04Speaker 1: Facing miami, here who isn't really that powerful of an,
- 41:08Speaker 1: offense and they've never seen him. Before of, course so,
- 41:10Speaker 1: again young pitcher might have a little bit of an
- 41:13Speaker 1: edge here against an offense that hasn't seen him. Before
- 41:16Speaker 1: SO i don't Really I'M i probably do lean to
- 41:18Speaker 1: The mets in this game BECAUSE i think they at
- 41:20Speaker 1: least have the hitting, edge bullpen, edge the motivation, edge
- 41:23Speaker 1: and debatably they have a starting pitching edge. Here but
- 41:27Speaker 1: sprote is gonna have to go up Against sandy Al
- 41:29Speaker 1: contra for The, marlins who is another one of those
- 41:31Speaker 1: guys who Had Tommy john surgery and hasn't been the same.
- 41:34Speaker 1: Since but he has pitched better over the last like two.
- 41:37Speaker 1: Months his numbers don't look that great on the, season
- 41:40Speaker 1: five point four to EIGHTY ra really not. Good one
- 41:43Speaker 1: point two eight whip is getting into more respectable, territory
- 41:46Speaker 1: though he's been better at home four point five to
- 41:49Speaker 1: three HOMEY, ra and again over the last couple of
- 41:52Speaker 1: months he's been a lot better three point six to
- 41:54Speaker 1: NINETY ra In august this month four point one two
- 41:57Speaker 1: with a twenty to three strikeout walk, ratio so that's.
- 42:00Speaker 1: Solid so he is definitely pitching better right. Now is
- 42:03Speaker 1: command numbers are, better although he has allowed four home
- 42:06Speaker 1: runs this, month but two of them were At. Colorado,
- 42:09Speaker 1: it's you, know it's a home run friendly environment there
- 42:12Speaker 1: in the high. Elevation he's Faced philly In detroit this
- 42:15Speaker 1: month as, well so he's facing pretty Difficult he faced
- 42:18Speaker 1: a couple of difficult lineups and then a difficult environment With,
- 42:21Speaker 1: colorado so he's still pitching pretty. Well he's allowed three
- 42:25Speaker 1: or fewer earned runs and all but one start in
- 42:27Speaker 1: his last six or actually last, seven ALTHOUGH i know
- 42:30Speaker 1: two of those he allowed four and runs and three
- 42:34Speaker 1: on runs the two of us starts this, month so
- 42:37Speaker 1: he's a little bit worse this month than he was
- 42:39Speaker 1: prior than he was the month, prior going up against
- 42:42Speaker 1: The mets difficult lineup to. Face he actually does have
- 42:46Speaker 1: pretty decent numbers against The mets in two hundred and
- 42:48Speaker 1: twenty four at, bats so they are very familiar with.
- 42:51Speaker 1: Him forty one to twenty strike out walk ratio is not.
- 42:54Speaker 1: Good that's way too many, walks but two thirty seven
- 42:56Speaker 1: batting average allowed to seven to twenty three, ops so
- 42:59Speaker 1: they haven't really hit him, well so he might do
- 43:01Speaker 1: okay as. WELL i would probably slightly lean to The,
- 43:04Speaker 1: mets just given the situation they're down for just one
- 43:07Speaker 1: thirty eight to minus one thirty. Three you're not really
- 43:10Speaker 1: gonna get a great price on The, mets necessarily because
- 43:13Speaker 1: still a team that carries a lot of weight behind their,
- 43:16Speaker 1: name but was sprout on the. Mound maybe you're getting
- 43:18Speaker 1: a little bit of a better price than you would
- 43:20Speaker 1: be if one of their better pitchers is on the.
- 43:21Speaker 1: Mound seventy eight percent of tickets ninety four percent of
- 43:25Speaker 1: cash on The mets still think that would be the
- 43:27Speaker 1: WAY i would lean in the. GAME i think the
- 43:28Speaker 1: starting pitching matchup is up in the air kind, of
- 43:31Speaker 1: and then The mets have the advantages elsewhere, here Including.
- 43:34Speaker 1: MOTIVATIONALLY i do think potentially an under as well in this.
- 43:39Speaker 1: Game probably would only go first five innings, though BECAUSE
- 43:42Speaker 1: i don't Love miami's bullpen at. All eighty four percent of,
- 43:45Speaker 1: tickets sixty three percent of cash on the over so
- 43:47Speaker 1: the money kind of. Fading the over there total has
- 43:51Speaker 1: gone up a little bit, though it's up from eight
- 43:53Speaker 1: to almost basically eight and a half. Here BUT i
- 43:57Speaker 1: think first five inning under maybe a. Look BUT i
- 43:59Speaker 1: think think the stronger way to play that game is
- 44:01Speaker 1: The mets money. Line but we will see what. Happens,
- 44:04Speaker 1: obviously AS i usually, Say texas At, Cleveland texas is
- 44:09Speaker 1: out of. It but are they gonna show up motivated
- 44:11Speaker 1: to try to Spoil cleveland's? SEASON i don't. Know. Man
- 44:13Speaker 1: cleveland is tied With detroit. Again After detroit did beat them,
- 44:17Speaker 1: Yesterday cleveland won the. Series that was a huge series For.
- 44:20Speaker 1: Cleveland so is that gonna hang them over a little
- 44:22Speaker 1: bit into this. GAME i don't, know, man Because cleveland
- 44:25Speaker 1: is still trying to make the playoffs and win the. Division,
- 44:28Speaker 1: potentially they're leading the division right now just by the
- 44:32Speaker 1: tiebreaker which they finished off in that. Series but we'll
- 44:37Speaker 1: be able to get back up after yesterday's lost and Face.
- 44:40Speaker 1: Texas we'll. SEE i, mean obviously they're gonna they gotta
- 44:43Speaker 1: be motivated here because, again the season is basically on
- 44:47Speaker 1: the line. Here it's just still ridiculous That cleveland is
- 44:50Speaker 1: in a spot that they're. IN i think they maybe
- 44:52Speaker 1: just finally Barely actually, no because they lost. YESTERDAY i
- 44:55Speaker 1: think they still have a negative run differential on the
- 44:57Speaker 1: season and they have the second worst offense In Major
- 45:01Speaker 1: League baseball based on. Ops it's just ridiculous that this is.
- 45:06Speaker 1: Happening their pitching has been lights out over the last
- 45:09Speaker 1: month or, two which is just kind of crazy to think.
- 45:12Speaker 1: About because they sold off some of their guys at
- 45:15Speaker 1: the trade Deadline, texas we know they're not going. Anywhere
- 45:17Speaker 1: they fell apart at the worst possible, time maybe they'll
- 45:21Speaker 1: show up, here you. Know just they're playing a final
- 45:25Speaker 1: series against a team that might make the, playoffs so
- 45:27Speaker 1: maybe that'll motivate them a little. Bit they probably want
- 45:29Speaker 1: to at least have a winning season and not fall
- 45:31Speaker 1: below five. Hundred that could be a little bit of
- 45:33Speaker 1: a mental motivator as. Well they're one game above five hundred.
- 45:36Speaker 1: Here they did lose. Yesterday they haven't been playing good,
- 45:38Speaker 1: Baseball they've lost nine in their last ten. Games but
- 45:42Speaker 1: they didn't get shut out Yesterday, minnesota which is pretty.
- 45:45Speaker 1: Embarrassing they get to go out on the, road and
- 45:47Speaker 1: going out on the road sometimes is better for your.
- 45:49Speaker 1: Focus when you're not playing well at, home you just
- 45:51Speaker 1: forget about it going the road go focus on. Baseball
- 45:56Speaker 1: cleveland is just staying at home, though So cleveland isn't
- 45:59Speaker 1: having to travel. Here both of these teams have good.
- 46:02Speaker 1: Bullpends cleveland did use four relief pitchers, Yesterday texas used,
- 46:06Speaker 1: three BUT i still think both bullpens are fairly trustworthy.
- 46:09Speaker 1: Here and then the starting pitching matchup is interesting between
- 46:12Speaker 1: two pretty young pitchers who definitely have. Potential Jack lighter
- 46:17Speaker 1: is pitching for The rangers three point nine TWO era
- 46:20Speaker 1: one point three to one whip is way too. High though,
- 46:24Speaker 1: overall he's not allowing a lot of, runs but he
- 46:25Speaker 1: does put too many guys on. Base he isn't quite
- 46:28Speaker 1: as good on the road three point four excuse a
- 46:30Speaker 1: four point four to one ROAD. Era not as good this,
- 46:33Speaker 1: month he's been, okay four point SEVENTY ra twenty to
- 46:36Speaker 1: seven strike at walk, Race you're kind of. MEDIOCRE i
- 46:39Speaker 1: would say he was better last, month although he had
- 46:41Speaker 1: too many. Walks the walks just continue to kind of
- 46:43Speaker 1: be a little bit of an, issue but he kind
- 46:45Speaker 1: of keeps his team in the. Games like he's allowed
- 46:49Speaker 1: at least four or fewer in runs and every start
- 46:51Speaker 1: going all the way back Into, june he's only allowed
- 46:53Speaker 1: four once in in that span and his last outing Against,
- 46:56Speaker 1: miami so he is still not allowing a ton of
- 46:59Speaker 1: runs going up against Uh cleveland here Week cleveland, offense of, Course,
- 47:05Speaker 1: uh he's done well against, them and not a whole
- 47:09Speaker 1: not a big sample size twenty four at, bats but
- 47:11Speaker 1: he has an eight zero strikeout walk ratio against. Something
- 47:14Speaker 1: we have one extra base, hit which is a double
- 47:16Speaker 1: from Bow. Naylor one twenty five batting average, allowed two
- 47:20Speaker 1: ninety two, ops so they have some really weak offensive
- 47:23Speaker 1: numbers Against Jack. Lighter both these offenses are, weak by the.
- 47:27Speaker 1: Way texas is actually the slightly better of the two,
- 47:29Speaker 1: offenses which is. Ridiculous and then the, Bullpen cleveland has
- 47:34Speaker 1: a better, bullpen but it's not that much of an,
- 47:36Speaker 1: edge so slightly better bullpen For. Cleveland so pretty. Interesting
- 47:40Speaker 1: and we have two good pitching teams here and two
- 47:43Speaker 1: bad hitting. Teams Slay, chacone he's pitching For. Cleveland he's been.
- 47:47Speaker 1: Alright this is his first season With. Cleveland four point
- 47:50Speaker 1: one FIVE, era one point one to eight. Whip he's
- 47:53Speaker 1: doing worse at home, though so both starting pitchers actually
- 47:56Speaker 1: in the bad end of their home road splits. Here
- 47:59Speaker 1: he's got a four point five to two HOMEY. Ra
- 48:02Speaker 1: he's been good this month three point one TWO, era
- 48:05Speaker 1: twenty three to five strike out walk. Ratio did have
- 48:07Speaker 1: two good home starts this month Against Kansas city in
- 48:10Speaker 1: The White sox And cleveland isn't a good offense, either
- 48:13Speaker 1: so excuse, me not Cleveand, texas excuse, me is not
- 48:15Speaker 1: a good offense. Either he did just Face texas a
- 48:18Speaker 1: little while. Ago though he did well last month At
- 48:21Speaker 1: texas On august twenty, second six innings tour and runs
- 48:24Speaker 1: allowed in that. One Jack lighter did he pitch in
- 48:27Speaker 1: that series as? Well let me just say he might.
- 48:29Speaker 1: Have he. Did he went seven shutout innings in that
- 48:32Speaker 1: series Against cleveland with ten strikeouts two hits. Allowed So
- 48:36Speaker 1: Jack lighter absolutely Dominated cleveland's offense in that one chacone Against,
- 48:43Speaker 1: texas thirty two at, bats seven to, one strike, out
- 48:46Speaker 1: walk ratio two fifty, AVERAGE a lot of those somewhat
- 48:48Speaker 1: high eight sixty six o bs because he has a
- 48:51Speaker 1: lot of three home runs to. Them To, garcia he
- 48:53Speaker 1: Got schioca And, Tayez but maybe that's kind of a
- 48:57Speaker 1: more fluky stat the home. Runs SO i still think
- 49:01Speaker 1: the way to look at this game is the. UNDER i,
- 49:02Speaker 1: MEAN i think you have two pretty talented young pitchers.
- 49:05Speaker 1: HERE i know the offense has just saw both of these.
- 49:07Speaker 1: Pictures that's a little bit of a concern if you
- 49:09Speaker 1: go under. Here but the money is coming in on the.
- 49:11Speaker 1: Under the totals dropped a decent amount down from eight
- 49:14Speaker 1: to seven and a half. Here you got to get
- 49:16Speaker 1: the under seven and a half if you like the under,
- 49:19Speaker 1: here and you have to pay a little bit of
- 49:20Speaker 1: juice for it now, Too so the line is moving on.
- 49:23Speaker 1: This seventy three percent tickets on the, over fifty two
- 49:25Speaker 1: percent of the cash on the. Under, yeah under would
- 49:28Speaker 1: be the WAY i would play this game IF i
- 49:29Speaker 1: was going to play, It and, yeah you got to
- 49:31Speaker 1: get the under seven and a. Half seven is the
- 49:33Speaker 1: key number in. BASEBALL i, MEAN i GUESS i wouldn't
- 49:36Speaker 1: totally be opposed to playing the under seven as. Well
- 49:39Speaker 1: definitely not lower than, that AS i never really do.
- 49:41Speaker 1: That seven is the key number in baseball breaks the
- 49:44Speaker 1: three three t. High so that's my opinion on that.
- 49:48Speaker 1: Game as far as the, Side cleveland down for minus
- 49:50Speaker 1: one fifty five to minus one forty seven on the money,
- 49:52Speaker 1: line ninety percent of, tickets ninety seven percent of cash on,
- 49:55Speaker 1: them so the cash percentages on them a little, bit
- 49:58Speaker 1: but they are very public and the line is kind
- 50:00Speaker 1: moved against. Them so maybe the professional betters are putting
- 50:05Speaker 1: more weight Into lighter THAN JACONI i, MEAN i probably
- 50:08Speaker 1: would agree with that That lighter is probably the more
- 50:10Speaker 1: talented of the two. Pitchers he's just gotta stop, walking.
- 50:13Speaker 1: Guys but, STILL i think under is probably the way
- 50:16Speaker 1: to look in that game twenty, Eleven Saint Louis cardinals
- 50:20Speaker 1: were ten and a half games back of the final.
- 50:22Speaker 1: Wildcard that's crazy with how many games to go and
- 50:27Speaker 1: then what do they wind up? Doing so they made the.
- 50:29Speaker 1: PLAYOFFS i forget which year that. WAS i know The
- 50:31Speaker 1: Red sox beat The cardinals in The World series in twenty.
- 50:34Speaker 1: THIRTEEN i don't remember who won in Twenty did The
- 50:36Speaker 1: cardinals win in twenty? ELEVEN i don't remember at, all,
- 50:39Speaker 1: Man it's all blur at this. Point it all kind
- 50:42Speaker 1: of blurs. TOGETHER i do not, remember all, right we
- 50:47Speaker 1: Have pittsburgh At atlanta then won The World. Series, YEAH
- 50:50Speaker 1: i mean baseball is, crazy, Man baseball and hockey because
- 50:53Speaker 1: there's such close, games you know WHAT i. Mean it's
- 50:56Speaker 1: this money line sport where you never really get like
- 50:59Speaker 1: giant favor for it's in each. Game so like tons
- 51:03Speaker 1: of chaos can happen in the playoffs IN nhl IN,
- 51:06Speaker 1: mlb so you can just have any like pretty much
- 51:10Speaker 1: any team can get far in the. Playoffs beat The
- 51:14Speaker 1: Rangers David freeze of the walk. OFF i barely remember
- 51:19Speaker 1: that if at. All, Uh it's, yeah that one's kind
- 51:22Speaker 1: of a slip in my. Mind pittsburgh Got. ATLANTA i,
- 51:26Speaker 1: mean these two teams are both playing out the. Stretch,
- 51:28Speaker 1: Obviously atlanta didn't play yesterday and they're staying at, Home
- 51:31Speaker 1: So atlanta does have a little bit of an edge
- 51:33Speaker 1: there where they're rested staying at. Home but they lost
- 51:35Speaker 1: a long wind, Streak SO i talk about. This they
- 51:38Speaker 1: had how many games in a row they? WANT i
- 51:39Speaker 1: think theyd won ten eleven games in a, row whatever this,
- 51:42Speaker 1: was and they finally. Lost that's not a good spot,
- 51:44Speaker 1: Really so even though they do have a rest, advantage
- 51:46Speaker 1: there are just too many conflicting factors in this, game,
- 51:48Speaker 1: Man because NORMALLY i like to look to play on
- 51:51Speaker 1: the team that was. Rested but when you lose like
- 51:55Speaker 1: a ten game win streak like that or, whatever that
- 51:57Speaker 1: can tend to hang you over into the next, game,
- 51:58Speaker 1: man because you're just not used to. Losing so even
- 52:02Speaker 1: THOUGH i know that's weird to say about a losing
- 52:04Speaker 1: team Like, atlanta but when you haven't lost in so,
- 52:06Speaker 1: long with your mindset just like isn't quite ready for.
- 52:09Speaker 1: It so that kind of worries me About. Atlanta pittsburgh
- 52:12Speaker 1: did play yesterday and they're traveling From cincinnati To, atlanta
- 52:16Speaker 1: and they lost a win streak as. Well they've won
- 52:18Speaker 1: four games in a row and they lost Yesterday, cincinnati
- 52:21Speaker 1: So pittsburgh not exactly in a great spot. Either they
- 52:25Speaker 1: had to use some of their bullpen, yesterday they only
- 52:27Speaker 1: used two. Guys, though as far as the bullpens, Themselves
- 52:32Speaker 1: pittsburgh's bullpen is actually up to thirteenth In Bullpenny. Ras
- 52:36Speaker 1: they actually have the better. Bullpen atlanta down at. Nineteenth
- 52:38Speaker 1: the fairly significant difference between their Two Bullpenny, rays So
- 52:42Speaker 1: pittsburgh actually has the better. Bullpen atlanta has the better.
- 52:46Speaker 1: Offense pittsburgh worst offense in all of. Baseball Mitch, keller
- 52:49Speaker 1: it's bet you For. Pittsburgh he's had an alright season
- 52:52Speaker 1: four point two to TWO, era one point two to FOUR.
- 52:55Speaker 1: Whip he's actually better on the road four point zero
- 52:58Speaker 1: nine ROAD, era which is where he is here this,
- 53:01Speaker 1: month four point three TWO. Era but he does have
- 53:03Speaker 1: a twelve to two strike out walk, ratio so he's
- 53:06Speaker 1: not walking a lot of. Guys so he's in okay
- 53:10Speaker 1: form right. Now he's pitching. Alright he's going to The
- 53:13Speaker 1: braves here against The, braves his numbers are mediocre and
- 53:17Speaker 1: seventy eight at bats seventeen to five strike a walk
- 53:19Speaker 1: ratio is, fine two sixty nine batting average allowed seven
- 53:22Speaker 1: thirty six ops allowed all three home runs that The
- 53:25Speaker 1: braves have against him from A kunya, though so if
- 53:27Speaker 1: he can pitch around, him it gets a little bit
- 53:30Speaker 1: easier for. Him Although olsen is five for ten off,
- 53:33Speaker 1: him so he does hit him pretty, well And harris
- 53:34Speaker 1: is three for. Ten but, Yeah, keller he does okay
- 53:38Speaker 1: against The braves in. General he's going up Against Joey,
- 53:41Speaker 1: wentz our favorite guy, here WHO i find to be very.
- 53:44Speaker 1: UNPREDICTABLE i, mean his numbers are not that. Good five
- 53:47Speaker 1: point four to SIXTY ra one point five to. Whip
- 53:50Speaker 1: that is. Bad you can't put one and a half
- 53:52Speaker 1: guys on basin in he can get away with. It,
- 53:54Speaker 1: Man he's been bad at home eight point h three
- 53:57Speaker 1: E ra at home this. Year he's been on multiple different,
- 54:01Speaker 1: teams though he was On, Pittsburgh minnesota and at Land.
- 54:05Speaker 1: ON i believe Since pittsburgh got rid of, HIM i
- 54:08Speaker 1: don't know if he's even Faced pittsburgh since. Then let me, see, Yep,
- 54:12Speaker 1: no he is not so really. Weird this is gonna
- 54:15Speaker 1: be the first time he faces his former, Team. Pittsburgh
- 54:18Speaker 1: So pittsburgh traded him. Away so that is an extra
- 54:20Speaker 1: motivator for a pitcher when they face the team that
- 54:24Speaker 1: let him, go you, know because it's, like, Oh i'm
- 54:25Speaker 1: not good enough for. You, Well i'm gonna pitch well
- 54:28Speaker 1: to prove you. Wrong this, month he has a pretty
- 54:30Speaker 1: solid twenty two to five strike a walk, radio yet
- 54:33Speaker 1: HIS era is awful eight point two to, Two SO
- 54:36Speaker 1: i can't really figure it. Out. Man his strekeout walk
- 54:38Speaker 1: ratio was bad last month to eighteen to ten with
- 54:42Speaker 1: a four point seven to THREE era last. Month he's
- 54:45Speaker 1: not pitching very. Well. Man it's JUST i don't. Know
- 54:48Speaker 1: it seems like every TIME i try to fade, him
- 54:50Speaker 1: though he actually pitches better than you would. Think numbers
- 54:53Speaker 1: Against pittsburgh they have faced him before because he's been.
- 54:55Speaker 1: Around not a huge sample size sixteen five zero strike a,
- 54:59Speaker 1: walker but they do with three twelve average nine thirty
- 55:02Speaker 1: eight ops against. Them so, AGAIN i still don't know
- 55:05Speaker 1: IF i Trust wentz in this. One. Man the money
- 55:08Speaker 1: seems to be coming in On atlanta. Anyway. Though the
- 55:10Speaker 1: rough round is one forty one fifty seven eighty eight
- 55:13Speaker 1: percent of tickets ninety six percent of cash on. Them
- 55:15Speaker 1: they are very. Public pittsburgh not is good on the
- 55:18Speaker 1: road money coming In. ATLANTA i, mean if you really
- 55:22Speaker 1: want to Play, atlanta you probably have to go on
- 55:24Speaker 1: a run line with. It AND i kind of worry about. That,
- 55:28Speaker 1: YEAH i really don't want to touch this Game wentz,
- 55:31Speaker 1: again he does have that added edgeries pitching against the
- 55:34Speaker 1: team that got rid of him earlier this season for
- 55:36Speaker 1: the first, time so that is an extra. Motivator BUT
- 55:39Speaker 1: i worry about his matchup numbers against. HIM i just
- 55:41Speaker 1: he just doesn't have good, numbers SO i don't find
- 55:44Speaker 1: it to be very. Trustworthy Red's. Milwaukee i'm gonna give
- 55:47Speaker 1: out a play on that one at the. End houston At.
- 55:50Speaker 1: Anaheim anaheim playing out the stretch, here they're staying at.
- 55:54Speaker 1: HOME i believe they played, yesterday, right let me, SEE
- 55:58Speaker 1: i think both teams played. Yesterday anheim us a few
- 56:00Speaker 1: relief pitchers. Yesterday houston also used, three but used them
- 56:04Speaker 1: to a bit less of a. Degree houston has the
- 56:05Speaker 1: better bullpen out of the. Two anaheim's bullpen really stinks
- 56:10Speaker 1: as far as the offense is. Concerned houston fifteenth in.
- 56:13Speaker 1: Ops anaheim has actually fallen down into the bottom third
- 56:16Speaker 1: at twenty, seconds So houston has the better offense as.
- 56:19Speaker 1: Well In, houston we know they got to be motivated
- 56:21Speaker 1: here because they're on the version of not making the.
- 56:24Speaker 1: Playoffs they're in the wildcard battle and they cannot win
- 56:27Speaker 1: their division. Anymore after they were leading the division basically all.
- 56:30Speaker 1: Year seattle just took them out and swept. Them And
- 56:34Speaker 1: houston finally broke a five game lost streak last time
- 56:37Speaker 1: out beating The, a's so they're staying on The Pacific
- 56:41Speaker 1: coast at least going down From sacramento To anaheim, here
- 56:44Speaker 1: but they at least broke a lost, streak so that'll
- 56:46Speaker 1: help break that losing momentum For houston. Here they've got
- 56:49Speaker 1: to have some motivating motivation here For houston because again
- 56:54Speaker 1: they're trying to make the playoffs. Still George costanza is
- 56:57Speaker 1: back on the mound for The astros. Here Jason alexander
- 57:01Speaker 1: not very good numbers this year four point eight THREE,
- 57:03Speaker 1: era one point three to NINE. Whip some of that
- 57:06Speaker 1: is with The a's though in that very hitter friendly.
- 57:09Speaker 1: Ballpark he is actually better on the road three point
- 57:11Speaker 1: one to NINE. Roadira he was pitching pretty well With.
- 57:15Speaker 1: HOUSTON i think he was pitching above his pay. Grade
- 57:17Speaker 1: he'd allowed three or four earned runs in every outing
- 57:20Speaker 1: except one against his former team in The, a's which
- 57:23Speaker 1: is the second time in almost in a row that
- 57:26Speaker 1: he had to face The a's up until his last,
- 57:28Speaker 1: out when he had like his worst outing ever Against
- 57:31Speaker 1: seattle at. Home we gave up seven earned runs and
- 57:33Speaker 1: one to a third and he's he got absolutely bombed By.
- 57:36Speaker 1: Seattle but he is stepping down in class now to
- 57:39Speaker 1: face An anaheim offense that is not as good As.
- 57:41Speaker 1: Seattle's but that really really kind of wrecked what he was. Doing,
- 57:45Speaker 1: man And houston had actually won a bunch of starts
- 57:48Speaker 1: in a. Row they'd won nine starts in a row
- 57:50Speaker 1: of his or something like, That so he was pitching
- 57:52Speaker 1: well For. Houston now the question is is he in
- 57:54Speaker 1: bad form now or will he bounce Back? Anaheim only
- 57:58Speaker 1: his one hitter has ever seen it, Before Chris taylor
- 58:00Speaker 1: is one for three with a strikeout against. HIM i
- 58:04Speaker 1: lean more Towards alexander bouncing back at least a little.
- 58:07Speaker 1: BIT i, mean he can't possibly be as bad as
- 58:09Speaker 1: he was in his last, outing SO i think he
- 58:11Speaker 1: will bounce back a little bit and pitch a little bit.
- 58:13Speaker 1: Better here he is going up Against Kyle, hendrix who
- 58:16Speaker 1: has had a mediocre. Season he's a, veteran he's been around.
- 58:20Speaker 1: Forever four point seven to NINETY, ra one point two
- 58:22Speaker 1: EIGHT whip for The. Angels he is better at home
- 58:26Speaker 1: four point three to THREE. Era at, home he actually
- 58:29Speaker 1: has two seven inning shutouts in his last three. Outings
- 58:33Speaker 1: problem is the others started between the. Two he got
- 58:36Speaker 1: wrecked By seattle as. Well At, seattle which is even
- 58:39Speaker 1: worse because that's a pitcher friendly BOMBER i gave him
- 58:41Speaker 1: nine or runs in that outing in three and a.
- 58:44Speaker 1: Third that was, bad but he still does have a
- 58:46Speaker 1: four point two to FOUR era this month because his
- 58:48Speaker 1: other three starts were. Good his one home start was
- 58:52Speaker 1: one of those seven inning shutouts Against minnesota seventeen to
- 58:55Speaker 1: six strike a walk. Ratio last time out Against houston
- 58:58Speaker 1: to End, august he pitched well At, houston went six,
- 59:01Speaker 1: innings give him only one on run two strikeouts in
- 59:04Speaker 1: that outlet is not very, good but he did okay,
- 59:06Speaker 1: there better than okay Against. Houston though, overall he does
- 59:09Speaker 1: not have good. Numbers ninety eight at bats twelve to
- 59:12Speaker 1: six strikeout walk ratio three to zero, six batting average
- 59:15Speaker 1: allowed eight seventy three. Ops So hendrix doesn't actually do
- 59:19Speaker 1: that well Against, houston even though he did last time.
- 59:22Speaker 1: Out it doesn't Mean houston just saw. Him but with
- 59:24Speaker 1: a veteran Like, HENDRIX i don't know that really matters
- 59:26Speaker 1: because they have seen a lot of him anyway in the.
- 59:29Speaker 1: Past Jason, alexander by the, way did not pitch Against
- 59:33Speaker 1: anaheim in that, series so he has not faced them
- 59:37Speaker 1: since being Acquired. Button he hasn't faced them this year,
- 59:39Speaker 1: actually so that's maybe a little bit of an extra
- 59:41Speaker 1: unfamiliarity edge To alexander in this. One houston is extremely
- 59:46Speaker 1: public though they're down from minus one forty to minus
- 59:48Speaker 1: one thirty eighty nine percent of tickets and. Cash the
- 59:51Speaker 1: pressure is On. Houston you're asking him to lay a
- 59:54Speaker 1: price on the road. HERE a little bit difficult to ask,
- 59:57Speaker 1: that especially with a pretty unproven pitcher on the mound.
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: Here SO i do worry about that a. BIT i
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: don't want to Back hendrix And anaheim, either Though. NORDO
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: i want to Back anaheim's, bullpen which is really. Bad
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: so this is a stay. Away but, YEAH i Mean
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: houston's very public and the money is coming in against,
- 1:00:16Speaker 1: them so that would worry me as far as trying
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: to Back. Houston arizona At San. Diego San diego pretty
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: much locked into their spot at this. POINT i think
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: The dodgers clinched their. Division, actually so even Though dodgers
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: of three games ahead Of San, DIEGO i think they
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: have the. Tiebreaker so The dodgers have clinched THE. Nls
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: San diego was virtually locked into the five. SEEDS i
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: don't know that they really have a ton to play for.
- 1:00:40Speaker 1: Here arizona has more to play for is they're still.
- 1:00:43Speaker 1: Fighting they're almost out of the. Playoffs they're one game
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: about five, hundred which is a little bit of a
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: motivator as. Well but they just lost to The. Dodgers
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: but they did get shut out, yesterday so it might
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: be good for them just get out of, there go
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: on the, road start a road, trip which is what
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: they're doing. Here they're. Good they gotta have motivation, here
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: even though they're coming up a big. Series this is
- 1:01:01Speaker 1: another big, series divisional, series and still they're potentially trying
- 1:01:04Speaker 1: to get the last wildcard spot, still even though they
- 1:01:08Speaker 1: traded players away at the trade, Deadline arizona would probably
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: still like to do, it so they're still gonna show
- 1:01:15Speaker 1: up with some motivation. Here arizona has the significantly better
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: offense Over San, diego But San diego has the better.
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: Bullpen San, DIEGO i, believe didn't even play. Yesterday arizona,
- 1:01:26Speaker 1: did and they've used a lot of their bullpen, recently
- 1:01:29Speaker 1: So arizona has a pretty big bullpend disadvantage coming into this.
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: One San diego is staying at home after Facing. Milwaukee
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: they lost a four game win, streak so they're coming
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: off of a pretty big series as well Against. Milwaukee
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: but they do have, rest SO i don't really want
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: to Fade San, diego AND i Think arizona's got to
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: have the motivational edge. Here San diego better bullpen and
- 1:01:51Speaker 1: rested kind of worries me a little. Bit Zach gallon
- 1:01:54Speaker 1: is pitching For. Arizona he started pitching better. Again he's
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: been decent from them in the, past had kind of
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: a rough. Season four point seven e ra one point
- 1:02:03Speaker 1: two to four whip is, better though it's a bit more.
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: Respectable he is a little bit worse on the road
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: four point eight five run the. Road he was better
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: on the road up until, recently so he's done worse
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: on the road, recently but he has been decent over
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: the past two. Months this month three point one SIXTY
- 1:02:19Speaker 1: ra and twenty three to seven strike a walk. Ratios
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: he's been pretty, solid but he's only faced one good Offense,
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: philly but he did do well in that start his
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: last time out nine strikeouts and seven, innings three and runs,
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: allowed four, hits two. Walks that was pretty solid Against San.
- 1:02:33Speaker 1: Diego his numbers are not terrific, though in one hundred
- 1:02:36Speaker 1: and sixty two at bats they've seen a lot of.
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: Him thirty seven, strikeouts fifteen, walks not a great, ratio
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: two seventy two batting average, allowed seven ninety six ohps,
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: Allowed So gallan hasn't exactly done great against, them even
- 1:02:50Speaker 1: though this is gonna be a pitcher friendly park, HERE
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: i worry about him a little. Bit San diego's going with,
- 1:02:55Speaker 1: You darvish and this one who doesn't have a GOOD
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: era this year five point five to, one though it's
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: a fairly small sample size because he came back from
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: injury pretty late in the, season but his whip is
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: pretty good one point one point, five which is interesting
- 1:03:08Speaker 1: Because darvish usually his problem is that he walks too many.
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: Guys like the Way darvish, pitches he just has like
- 1:03:14Speaker 1: a lot of different, pitches a lot of speed changing
- 1:03:17Speaker 1: stuff that he throws at. You he's been better at
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: home though FOR era at home much picture from the
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: environment at home this month five point one TWO. Era
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: but his command numbers have been excellent twenty two to
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: two strike out walk ratio on no walks in his
- 1:03:30Speaker 1: last three Outings San, diego winning all three of those.
- 1:03:34Speaker 1: Games SO i don't know how he's allowing this many.
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: Runs he's allowed a little bit, TOO i mean a
- 1:03:39Speaker 1: few too many. HITS i mean that's really, it more
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: hits than innings. Pitch but usually again his control is
- 1:03:46Speaker 1: usually kind of the. Problem his control has been, Better
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: So darvish is kind of like the Bizarro darvish right.
- 1:03:52Speaker 1: Now up Against arizona's numbers aren't, great though they've seen
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: a lot of. Them one hundred and thirty at, bats
- 1:03:57Speaker 1: forty one to seventeen to strike a walk, race, uh you,
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: know kind of mediocre, there two sixty two batting average,
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: allowed eight fifty five ops, Allowed so he hasn't done
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: that great Against arizona, Either so this game a little
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: bit difficult to figure. Out San diego is down for
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: minus one forty five to minus one thirty five on
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: the money, line seventy two percent, tickets seventy seven percent
- 1:04:22Speaker 1: of the cash on, Them so the money is coming
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: in on The San diego side a little. Bit it
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: looks like based on the cash, percentage but the money
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: line has dropped on them, too and they're. Publics that
- 1:04:32Speaker 1: kind of concerns. ME i don't know if it means
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: we have conflicting opinions on this game or, what but
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: definitely conflicting market. Indicators and the total drop from eight
- 1:04:40Speaker 1: to seven and a. Half BUT i actually think that
- 1:04:42Speaker 1: total is too. LOW i would actually lean to an
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: over in this. GAME i Know San diego's bullpen is,
- 1:04:47Speaker 1: good but you Have arizona's bullpen isn't. GOOD i don't
- 1:04:50Speaker 1: think either starting pitcher matches up particularly well, here SO
- 1:04:54Speaker 1: i think an over might be worth a look. Here
- 1:04:55Speaker 1: eighty eight percent of, tickets ninety nine percent of the
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: cash on the over total it's seven and a. HALF
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: i know it's over a key number seven and a,
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: half but the total does seem pretty low to me
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: for that Game dodgers At. Seattle seattle doesn't actually have
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: a whole lot to play for it this one because
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: they're pretty much locked into Their, well they've won the,
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: division SO i mean as far as that they've, clinched
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: which might be a spot where maybe they just don't
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: pay as much attention because they clinch their. Division THEY
- 1:05:24Speaker 1: i think they actually are, well they're not totally locked
- 1:05:27Speaker 1: into their. Spot they could actually get the one, seed
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: so they do still have a little bit of motivation
- 1:05:31Speaker 1: because they're actually only one game behind Both toronto and The,
- 1:05:34Speaker 1: yankees and one of those teams is going to be
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: the overall one seed in THE, al WHICH i really
- 1:05:40Speaker 1: hope it's not The yankees BECAUSE i don't want them
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: to have home advantage, here So seattle could potentially do.
- 1:05:46Speaker 1: That they're facing The, dodgers SO i, said also clinch their, Division,
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: dodgers they're in a spot where they're going to be less.
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: MOTIVATED i think, though because The dodgers cannot improve their.
- 1:05:56Speaker 1: STANDING i don't Think philadelphia And milwaukee are. Both milwaukee's
- 1:05:59Speaker 1: definitely too far ahead of. Them, PHILADELPHIA i think it
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: is too far ahead of them as. Well, yeah four games,
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: ahead so or three and a, Half so The, dodgers
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: they actually literally have nothing to play. For The dodgers
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: are locked into the three seed in The National, league
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: so The dodgers really have nothing to play for. Here
- 1:06:16Speaker 1: as far as the, Bullpens seattle has the better, bullpen
- 1:06:19Speaker 1: but The dodgers only use three relief. Pitchers yes, Today
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: seattle used a. Lot they used five relief, pitchers a
- 1:06:26Speaker 1: lot of relief usage For seattle. Yesterday seattle is staying
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: at home, though and they're on a win. Streak they
- 1:06:33Speaker 1: won a bunch of games in a, row seven games
- 1:06:35Speaker 1: in a, row so not really necessarily a TRAIN i
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: want to jump in front. Of dodgers won two games
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: in a Row. Arizona now they have to fly up To.
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: Seattle so, MOTIVATION i Think seattle does have an advantage
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: here with the. MOTIVATION i THINK i do prefer the
- 1:06:51Speaker 1: starting pitcher for The dodgers a little bit. More The
- 1:06:53Speaker 1: dodgers have the better, offense so though both offenses are pretty, Good,
- 1:06:58Speaker 1: seattle LIKE i, said has the better bull but they're
- 1:07:00Speaker 1: not very arrested right. Now Emmett sheen is pitching for The.
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: Dodgers he's been good man he's starting to pitch quite,
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: well starting to live up to his. POTENTIAL i think
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: he's good two point eight SIX, era point nine to seven.
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: Whip he isn't as good on the road four point FOUR,
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: era but this is a pitcher friendly park. Here he's
- 1:07:18Speaker 1: been really good this month with the one point four
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: to EIGHTY ra and thirty two to six strike a
- 1:07:23Speaker 1: walk ratio a lot of. Strikeouts he's been virtually unhittable
- 1:07:26Speaker 1: to allowing only ten hits in twenty four and a
- 1:07:28Speaker 1: thirty innings. Pitch he's been really good this, month alying
- 1:07:32Speaker 1: two or four earned runs and five straight, outings and
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: he has those five outings are bookended by two seven
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: innings shutout, performances allowing three combined hits with a twenty
- 1:07:43Speaker 1: to one strike a walk ratio in those two. Starts so,
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: YEAH i mean he's doing well right. Now he is.
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: Solid seattle has four hitters who face him the front
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: of their zero for four with three strikeouts and no
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: walks off. Him So seattle not very familiar with, him
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: and when they have seen, him he's pretty much lit them.
- 1:07:59Speaker 1: Up so she looks like good in this. Game. Man
- 1:08:03Speaker 1: SO i worry because The dodgers don't have motivation really
- 1:08:06Speaker 1: in this, game But shean might come out and pitch with.
- 1:08:08Speaker 1: Motivation so that's the thing you have to kind of.
- 1:08:11Speaker 1: Gauge there's team motivation and then there's the motivation of
- 1:08:14Speaker 1: the starting pitcher, too which could be different from the team's.
- 1:08:17Speaker 1: Motivation George kirby is pitching For. Seattle he's been decent
- 1:08:21Speaker 1: this season four point two to FOUR, era one point
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: two to ONE. Whip he is much better at home
- 1:08:26Speaker 1: three point three six cra pretty much Every seattle pitcher.
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: Is AS i always point, out he hasn't been very
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: good this month as far as HIS era being five
- 1:08:34Speaker 1: point eight, nine but that was because he got lit
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: up At Tampa. Bay he has these starts where he
- 1:08:39Speaker 1: just is terrible sometimes usually on the, road and that
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: was a hitter from the environment. There but he does
- 1:08:45Speaker 1: still have a twenty four to two strikeout walk race
- 1:08:47Speaker 1: here this, month so he is pitching well this month.
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: Anyway and he's allowed three or four earned runs in
- 1:08:54Speaker 1: all but that one start Against Tampa bay going back six,
- 1:08:59Speaker 1: starts so basically that kind of is like an outlier
- 1:09:02Speaker 1: as far as how he's pitching right. Now he is
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: pitching better right, now but he is going up against
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: a hard Hitting dodger. Team thirty nine at bats against,
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: Them he's not done well against, them five five strike
- 1:09:11Speaker 1: a walk ratio that's pretty ugly, too eighty two batting average,
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: allowed eight seventy six. Ops So kirby has not done
- 1:09:18Speaker 1: well AGAINST la in the, past so that doesn't look
- 1:09:21Speaker 1: very good to. Me the money is coming in pretty
- 1:09:25Speaker 1: strongly on The dodgers. Side we Got seattle up from
- 1:09:29Speaker 1: minus went twenty five to minus went twenty. Seven they're
- 1:09:31Speaker 1: public sixty percent of tickets on them public fading The.
- 1:09:34Speaker 1: Dodgers when do you ever see? That when do you
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: ever get The dodgers as an? Underdog? Man? Uh sixty
- 1:09:39Speaker 1: three percent of the cash coming in IN. La SO
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: i think maybe a lot of it is just the,
- 1:09:43Speaker 1: Price like you're getting a really Good dodger team with
- 1:09:45Speaker 1: a really good starting pitcher as an. UNDERDOG i, mean
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: that is pretty crazy to think. About maybe if you
- 1:09:51Speaker 1: want The, dodgers you could also go first five, innings
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: just so you don't have to deal with The dodgers,
- 1:09:55Speaker 1: bullpen which isn't that, good Although seattle's bullpen is a
- 1:09:58Speaker 1: bit more, used so it's to. YOU i MEAN i
- 1:10:02Speaker 1: would lean that. Way as far as the matchup is,
- 1:10:04Speaker 1: CONCERNED i would agree with The, dodgers BUT i worry
- 1:10:07Speaker 1: about the. Motivation, man that's the only. Problem SO i
- 1:10:11Speaker 1: will not recommend it as a. Play but that would
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: be the lean. There the total is also low at,
- 1:10:15Speaker 1: seven we have. Eighty it's gone up a little bit
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: to seven juice to the over eighty. Percent tickets on
- 1:10:20Speaker 1: the over eighty six percent of the cash on the,
- 1:10:22Speaker 1: over so money coming in on the over him AND
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: i could definitely see some arguments for this being an
- 1:10:27Speaker 1: under early in the. GAME i don't want to deal
- 1:10:29Speaker 1: with the, bullpens but first five under maybe worth a.
- 1:10:34Speaker 1: Look BUT i worry About kirby. TOO i Think shean
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: is the more trustworthy of the two in this, matchup
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: and if he comes out of, pitches, well that will
- 1:10:41Speaker 1: help The dodgers. Here. Man so that is The that
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: is the deal. There that's the, Deal, JACK i don't
- 1:10:50Speaker 1: want to. Sell i'm intenttionally sounded Like Joe. Biden Kansas, City, Sleepy,
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: Joe Kansas. City at The a's. Here The a's finishing
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: out this, season staying at home. Here they're coming to
- 1:11:03Speaker 1: have a pretty big series Against, houston though to The,
- 1:11:05Speaker 1: A'S i don't know how motivated they'll be to face
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: The royals at the very end of the. Season The
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: royals got eliminated as, well so they might not have
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: a ton of motivation. Either they're on The pacific coast
- 1:11:14Speaker 1: already traveling From anaheim up to The a's WHERE i
- 1:11:18Speaker 1: think the opposite is the case For, houston right Because
- 1:11:22Speaker 1: houston was just at The a's and they're going down To,
- 1:11:24Speaker 1: anaheim so the teams are. Crisscrossing Kansas city And houston
- 1:11:28Speaker 1: are So Kansas city going up to The a's it's
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: probably gonna be a little bit of a shocking change
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: For Kansas. CITY i don't know if they've played at
- 1:11:36Speaker 1: THE A stadium this, year But Kansas city plays in
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: a pitcher friendly, park and THIS A stadium is Terrible
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: TRIPLE a, team very hitter. Friendly difficult to handicap this
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: because we don't know who The a's are gonna have
- 1:11:46Speaker 1: as a starting. Pitcher they're still. Undecided a's are sitting
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: in a very small favorite right, now maybe not. Justifiable
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: The a's definitely have the better, offense there's no question about,
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: that But The a's also have the way worse bullpen
- 1:12:00Speaker 1: and just way worse pitching in. General a has used
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: three relief pitchers Yesterday Soda Kansas, city But Kansas city
- 1:12:06Speaker 1: used a lot less of. Theirs Kansas, city of, course
- 1:12:08Speaker 1: has their talented young rookie on The, Mount Noah. Cameron
- 1:12:12Speaker 1: the only Issue i've said with him is is he
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: wearing out? Yet we don't really know because we don't
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: know what his stamina is really even like. Yet but
- 1:12:19Speaker 1: he's had a really good season two point NINETY r
- 1:12:21Speaker 1: one point oh eight. WHIP i don't know how he'll
- 1:12:23Speaker 1: adapt to pitching at this terrible, stadium though he's been
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: slightly better on the road generally two point eight six
- 1:12:29Speaker 1: the area, there and he's been good. Overall he's allowed
- 1:12:32Speaker 1: three or four earned runs and all four starts this.
- 1:12:34Speaker 1: Month this team has won three of the four two
- 1:12:36Speaker 1: point eight ONE era this, month including two starts in
- 1:12:40Speaker 1: a row Against philly And. TORONTO i mean those were
- 1:12:42Speaker 1: difficult lineups to face that he did well against both of.
- 1:12:45Speaker 1: Them twenty five to eight strike a walk ers here this,
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: month too many, walks but five of them came Against,
- 1:12:49Speaker 1: Anaheims so he might pitch better in this. One but
- 1:12:53Speaker 1: you gotta worry about like is he gonna pitch well
- 1:12:55Speaker 1: at The a's statum because he is not pitched in this.
- 1:12:57Speaker 1: Stadium but he did shut them out for five innings
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: In Kansas city, earlier so something to consider. There but
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: that doesn't Mean Kansas. City that does mean The a's
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: have seen him. Now so he did have a little
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: bit of an extra edge the first time facing them
- 1:13:11Speaker 1: because the hitters had to kind of figure him. Out
- 1:13:13Speaker 1: but they had twelve at bats against the four, strikeouts one,
- 1:13:16Speaker 1: walk two fifty batting average seven to twenty four oh,
- 1:13:19Speaker 1: ps so he did pretty well against. Them he's good
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: enough that he might do well. Again so even with
- 1:13:24Speaker 1: The a's pitching pitcher being, UNDECIGNED i, mean if you
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: want to go with just the starting pitching or just
- 1:13:29Speaker 1: the pitching, matchup Maybe Kansas city is worth a look
- 1:13:33Speaker 1: in that. Game they do have a bulpen edge as,
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: well BUT i would hesitate to do it just you
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: don't know what the motivation is going to be. LIKE i,
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: mean both these teams are out of And Kansas city
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: being recently, eliminated you don't know what their motivation is
- 1:13:44Speaker 1: going to. Be like if it could be kind of
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: like a dream crusher type of. Scenario and Then colorado
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: At San. Francisco Sar francisco got officially eliminated as, well
- 1:13:52Speaker 1: SO i don't know what their mindset is going to.
- 1:13:55Speaker 1: Be they are staying at. Home they had yesterday off as,
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: well So sarrancisco is rested and they have the better.
- 1:14:00Speaker 1: Rolepen San francisco one of the better bullpens in all of.
- 1:14:04Speaker 1: Baseball colorado's bullpen. Stinks both these offenses are. BAD i
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: don't even know which of these offenses is worse at this,
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: Point Probably colorado though, yeah, uh excuse that was bullpen.
- 1:14:14Speaker 1: Area colorado's second. Worst colorado is twenty seventh in overall,
- 1:14:19Speaker 1: ops San francisco twenty, seconds So San francisco only slightly better.
- 1:14:23Speaker 1: Offensively colorado's coming in From, seattle so they are staying
- 1:14:26Speaker 1: on The west. Coast BUT i don't, Know, man not
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: a lot of motivation either way. HERE i Think San
- 1:14:32Speaker 1: francisco has a, motivate has a matchup edge all throughout
- 1:14:35Speaker 1: this game. Though bullpen offense and starting. Pitching herman marquees
- 1:14:39Speaker 1: for The rockies six point four to NINE era one
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: point seven whip not. Good he's been worse on the road.
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: Too somehow he's better at course field six point nine
- 1:14:49Speaker 1: to SIX. Roadyra that's certainly not. Good he hasn't been
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: good recently, either eight point three EIGHTY ra this month
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: than nine to seven strikeout walk. Ratio colorado has lost
- 1:14:59Speaker 1: six starts in a row of HIS i believe he
- 1:15:01Speaker 1: was injured at one point and then came, back yet
- 1:15:03Speaker 1: like a month later Late, august still hasn't been good since.
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: Then Against San, francisco even though they can't hit that,
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: well his numbers aren't good against them. Either in sixty
- 1:15:12Speaker 1: nine at, bats sixteen to four strikeout walk, ratio two
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: to ninety batting average, allowed nine to four oh. Ps
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: so the strike out walk ratio is, good but the
- 1:15:20Speaker 1: rest of those numbers are pretty. Lousy he's not. Good
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: he's going up Against trevor, McDonald WHO i don't know
- 1:15:27Speaker 1: if we know what he is. Yet he's a young
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: pitcher for The. GIANTS i believe he's a. Rookie. Well
- 1:15:33Speaker 1: he made one appearance last, year which was a bulpend,
- 1:15:35Speaker 1: appearance and he's only made two appearances this, year one.
- 1:15:38Speaker 1: Start but his numbers have been good so, far mostly
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: this year he doesn't have a three point three EIGHTY.
- 1:15:44Speaker 1: Ra one point three eight whip is not that. GOOD
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: i mean it's a very small sample, size though a
- 1:15:50Speaker 1: little bit worse at home three point three EIGHTY. Ra
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: but wait a, minute what AM i looking at? Here oh,
- 1:15:57Speaker 1: no that's day and night, Excuse so that's a road
- 1:16:01Speaker 1: versus day and my. Apologies he's only made a road
- 1:16:03Speaker 1: appearances so, far so that's my. MISTAKE i got thrown
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: off by how they lay this. Out he hasn't pitched
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: at home, yet so they haven't separated the splits. There
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: but what's impressive about what he's done so far is
- 1:16:14Speaker 1: that his two appearances were At arizona in relief and
- 1:16:17Speaker 1: then at The, dodger so he had to face two
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: good lineups on the. Road didn't do that well Against
- 1:16:22Speaker 1: arizona was shake he gave him two earned runs and two.
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: Innings but he pitched pretty well against The dodgers last,
- 1:16:27Speaker 1: time about six, innings one earned, run, allowed three to
- 1:16:30Speaker 1: one strike a walk. Ratio maybe because he was unfamiliar to,
- 1:16:32Speaker 1: them but he's gonna be unfamiliar To colorado. Here colorado
- 1:16:36Speaker 1: is a big step down as far as the offense
- 1:16:38Speaker 1: that he's facing, here SO i expect that he will
- 1:16:41Speaker 1: pitch well here against a pretty Weak colorado, offense and
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: he's gonna have the edge of them not having seen him.
- 1:16:46Speaker 1: Before but the money's coming in Against San. Francisco they're
- 1:16:49Speaker 1: just a really heavy, favorite up for minus two hundred
- 1:16:51Speaker 1: to minus two thirty, two ninety percent of, tickets eighty
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: nine percent of the cash on, them so very very,
- 1:16:58Speaker 1: Public i'll be the money line did initially move up
- 1:17:00Speaker 1: On San. FRANCISCO i, MEAN i think they do have
- 1:17:02Speaker 1: the edge everywhere in this. Game so the only way
- 1:17:05Speaker 1: THAT i could see really playing this game is still
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: probably some way Playing San. FRANCISCO i, mean maybe you
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: could Go San francisco over their team total maybe the
- 1:17:15Speaker 1: better way to. Look BUT i do think McDonald should
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: do well as, well so it could still be A
- 1:17:18Speaker 1: San francisco run. Line the issue you get into is
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: just are they gonna score enough runs in this pitcher
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: friendly ballpark to overcome a minus one and a half run,
- 1:17:26Speaker 1: line and maybe without having to bat in the ninth inning,
- 1:17:29Speaker 1: Either it's a little bit a. Questionable, anna what's? Up
- 1:17:32Speaker 1: thanks for hanging. Out let's get to the best bets. Here.
- 1:17:34Speaker 1: Man see if we can get this get this thing.
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: DONE i, MEAN i KNOW i have to talk about football,
- 1:17:39Speaker 1: too but don't have two players in, football so in,
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: baseball these are both gonna be kind of. Boring we're
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: going with a couple of unders. Here we're gonna first
- 1:17:48Speaker 1: go With Tampa bay And toronto first five inning under
- 1:17:50Speaker 1: WHICH i saw out there at four or four and a.
- 1:17:53Speaker 1: Half but the way better prices on the four in my,
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: Opinion so you can get the four at even. Money,
- 1:17:58Speaker 1: uh you are, risking you, know the push of course
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: if it lands on. Four but that's What i'm gonna do.
- 1:18:02Speaker 1: HERE i actually like the starting pitching matchup. Here toronto
- 1:18:06Speaker 1: is staying at. HOME i, know coming off a win Against.
- 1:18:09Speaker 1: BOSTON i know they have to remain focused here because
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: they're trying to hang onto the division against The yankees
- 1:18:14Speaker 1: here and it's really really. Close Tampa bay probably will
- 1:18:18Speaker 1: be motivated just because they're facing divisional. Opponents they're Behind.
- 1:18:22Speaker 1: Toronto you, know of Course Tampa bay has had kind
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: of a lost, season But tampa is at least better
- 1:18:27Speaker 1: than they, look AND i think they will show up
- 1:18:30Speaker 1: with motivation here as. Well so the side is a
- 1:18:32Speaker 1: little bit. Questionable to, me BUT i think the starting
- 1:18:35Speaker 1: pitching matchup actually lends itself to an under. HERE i
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: don't Love toronto's. Bullpen i''ve been up and down all.
- 1:18:41Speaker 1: Season they use a lot of relief. Pitchers, yesterday seven
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: arms that they came out of the. BULLPEN i mean
- 1:18:47Speaker 1: some of them probably are usable again, today BUT i
- 1:18:50Speaker 1: don't want any part of that. Bullpen tampa's bullpen is
- 1:18:53Speaker 1: pretty well. Rested they Use shulten's for most of the time,
- 1:18:56Speaker 1: Yesterday So tampa's bullpen is the better of the two,
- 1:18:59Speaker 1: bullpens and as well, Rested toronto does have the better offense.
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: Here but again we're looking at the starting. Pitching Adrian
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: howser pitching For. Tampa they got him from The White
- 1:19:08Speaker 1: sox at the trade. Downline pretty good season for, him
- 1:19:10Speaker 1: even THOUGH i think he overperformed a little. Bit three
- 1:19:13Speaker 1: point one EIGHTY ra one point two to SEVEN whip not.
- 1:19:16Speaker 1: TERRIBLE i know he wasn't quite as good on the
- 1:19:18Speaker 1: road three point four to NINE. Roadra but this is
- 1:19:22Speaker 1: kind of about the matchup, though and he is pitching okay,
- 1:19:25Speaker 1: recently even though a four point four to FOUR era
- 1:19:27Speaker 1: this month doesn't look that. Good he's still allowed four
- 1:19:30Speaker 1: or fewer earned runs in eight straight, appearances a three
- 1:19:33Speaker 1: or fewer in his last three including it starts against
- 1:19:37Speaker 1: The cobs and The Red sox did Face seattle this month,
- 1:19:40Speaker 1: too so some pretty difficult. OFFENSES i Know toronto also,
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: is but he has a twenty one to five strike
- 1:19:45Speaker 1: a walk ratio this, month so his command is pretty
- 1:19:48Speaker 1: solid right. Now SO i think we could go with him.
- 1:19:51Speaker 1: Here and he's going up Against toronto and he's done
- 1:19:54Speaker 1: well against him in the. Past seventy four at bats
- 1:19:56Speaker 1: eight seven strike out walk ratio is definitely not, good
- 1:19:58Speaker 1: But toronto has not hit well against, him a two
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: fifty seven batting average and a pretty low six h five,
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: ohps So howser has done well against. Them and then
- 1:20:08Speaker 1: of course we Got Shane bieber on the mound For
- 1:20:11Speaker 1: toronto The. Beebes he's coming back from. Injury. MAN i
- 1:20:15Speaker 1: think he Had Tommy john. Surgery he was really good
- 1:20:17Speaker 1: For cleveland in the. PAST i think he might have
- 1:20:19Speaker 1: been a cy young winner in the past For, cleveland
- 1:20:21Speaker 1: but he's pretty much picked up where he left. Off
- 1:20:23Speaker 1: he's still good man three point five SEVEN era point
- 1:20:27Speaker 1: nine to six whip that should Help. Toronto as far
- 1:20:29Speaker 1: as what they're going to start doing in the, playoffs
- 1:20:32Speaker 1: he is a big piece to add with their starting.
- 1:20:34Speaker 1: Rotation Man, like he's basically their best starting, pitcher so
- 1:20:38Speaker 1: very good for them that they got him. Back he's
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: better at home three point one to eight homye RA
- 1:20:43Speaker 1: i really only had one bad outing At, cincinnati which
- 1:20:46Speaker 1: is a hitter friendly. Ballpark he wasn't even that, bad,
- 1:20:49Speaker 1: really he just gave up some untimely hits basically or
- 1:20:52Speaker 1: timely HITS i guess For. Cincinnati gave up five runs
- 1:20:55Speaker 1: and six innings in that, one but he only allowed
- 1:20:57Speaker 1: five hits and two walks six. Strikeouts it wasn't even
- 1:21:00Speaker 1: bad in that. One and other than, that he's allowed
- 1:21:02Speaker 1: three or fewer earned runs in all of his other.
- 1:21:04Speaker 1: Outings thirty four to five strikeout walk ratio this. Year
- 1:21:08Speaker 1: that's pretty. Excellent his command has been right on fewer
- 1:21:12Speaker 1: hits than, innings pitched hits aloud and then innings. PITCH
- 1:21:16Speaker 1: i should say he's still pitching, well, man SO i
- 1:21:18Speaker 1: expect him to do that again Here. Tampa only three
- 1:21:21Speaker 1: guys have faced him before and they're only three for
- 1:21:23Speaker 1: nineteen off him with no extra base, hits eight, strikeouts two.
- 1:21:27Speaker 1: Walks that's a one fifty eight average and three ninety six.
- 1:21:29Speaker 1: Ops Between diaz and the Two. LOWS i want to
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: call him The lowe, brothers even THOUGH i don't think they're,
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: related and they're not related to The Red sox low Either.
- 1:21:40Speaker 1: Nathaniel SO i like both starting pitchers, here and, man,
- 1:21:43Speaker 1: Yeah bieber is the better of the two there are
- 1:21:47Speaker 1: you know some of, course there's an advantage for Or
- 1:21:49Speaker 1: tampa in the bullpend, though SO i think if you
- 1:21:51Speaker 1: do Like toronto, HERE i think you have to go
- 1:21:52Speaker 1: first five inning only With toronto in this. One if
- 1:21:56Speaker 1: you do want to go first five, innings it would
- 1:21:57Speaker 1: probably be a minus half run line would be the better.
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: Price toronto's a pretty heavy moneyline, favorite up for minus
- 1:22:03Speaker 1: one seventy eight to minus one seventy. Nine they have
- 1:22:06Speaker 1: the public ticket percentage on the eighty three eighty five
- 1:22:09Speaker 1: percent of the. Cash doesn't look that great For toronto.
- 1:22:11Speaker 1: There money coming in on the, under, though so the
- 1:22:14Speaker 1: market read is a lot easier to read on the. Under.
- 1:22:17Speaker 1: Here the totals already gone down from eight to seven
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: and a. Half still juice to the over, there but
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: again we're going with the first five innings. Instead hopefully
- 1:22:24Speaker 1: you can still find the under four out. THERE i
- 1:22:26Speaker 1: think you probably. Can, uh sixty three percent of tickets
- 1:22:29Speaker 1: on the, Over so the public's gonna see this and
- 1:22:32Speaker 1: think over with a team Like toronto, here, uh maybe
- 1:22:35Speaker 1: they kind of forget how Good bieber, is but ninety
- 1:22:38Speaker 1: five percent of the cash on the. Under so this
- 1:22:40Speaker 1: is a big pros Versus joe's type of discrepancy. Here
- 1:22:43Speaker 1: so we're gonna go with the pros in this one
- 1:22:46Speaker 1: that look like they're playing the, under and that is
- 1:22:47Speaker 1: what we're gonna. Do but we're gonna go first five
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: inning only to avoid The toronto, bullpen and we will
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: also go under In reds And brewers, here which this
- 1:22:56Speaker 1: is gonna be the type of gamer. AGAIN i think
- 1:22:57Speaker 1: the public sees this and, think, oh two good hitting,
- 1:23:00Speaker 1: teams which obviously is. True the teams are pretty good,
- 1:23:04Speaker 1: offensively maybe not as good as people. Think milwaukee's down
- 1:23:06Speaker 1: to eleventh offensively and Major League baseball on The reds
- 1:23:10Speaker 1: are somewhere in the middle of the pack, nineteenth so
- 1:23:12Speaker 1: the offense is not quite as good as maybe the
- 1:23:14Speaker 1: perception of. Them milwaukee isn't as good at home. Offensively
- 1:23:19Speaker 1: so some'th going to keep in mind Here milwaukee is
- 1:23:22Speaker 1: returning home from a road trip and as a day,
- 1:23:24Speaker 1: off AND i think that can cool off. Hitting. MAN
- 1:23:26Speaker 1: i talk about, this the return home from the road.
- 1:23:28Speaker 1: Trip it could be a distracted. Spot they're shifting time
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: zones here because they went To Saint louis And San
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: diego with a day. Off that can exacerbate. It, man
- 1:23:37Speaker 1: the hitters kind of cool, Off they can kind of
- 1:23:40Speaker 1: be affected by the distraction THAT i talk about when
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: the team returns home from a road, trip you got
- 1:23:43Speaker 1: to get back to home. Life could be a bit
- 1:23:45Speaker 1: of an. Distraction SO i don't think it's a good
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: spot For milwaukee here if you're looking at the. SIDE
- 1:23:50Speaker 1: i do Think cincinnati has a big motivational edge here,
- 1:23:53Speaker 1: Too SO i was first thinking MAYBE i want to
- 1:23:55Speaker 1: kind of lean Towards cincinnati as well here Because cincinnati
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: still is trying to get the last wildcard. Spot In
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: milwaukee is very close to having home field wrapped, up like,
- 1:24:04Speaker 1: basically they don't even need to win basically to wrap it,
- 1:24:07Speaker 1: up like if the opponents that are closest to, them
- 1:24:09Speaker 1: but basically it's Just. Philadelphia So, basically If philadelphia loses it,
- 1:24:13Speaker 1: All milwaukee WILL i, think seal it up if they haven't.
- 1:24:15Speaker 1: Already So milwaukee really doesn't have a whole lot left
- 1:24:18Speaker 1: to play for. Here they're pretty much locked in to
- 1:24:22Speaker 1: that one, seed AND i don't know even if between
- 1:24:24Speaker 1: one and, TWO i don't even know how much they
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: really care about that, Necessarily SO i think the spot
- 1:24:29Speaker 1: is a lot better For cincinnati, here except for the
- 1:24:31Speaker 1: fact That milwaukee is rested And cincinnati did play. Yesterday
- 1:24:35Speaker 1: they Beat, pittsburgh it was a pretty, easy serious femin
- 1:24:38Speaker 1: now they're going out on the road, motivationally the spot
- 1:24:41Speaker 1: is in favor Of, cincinnati but, AGAIN i don't love
- 1:24:43Speaker 1: to play teams that played yesterday against a team that
- 1:24:45Speaker 1: didn't play. Yesterday as far as the bullpens are, concerned,
- 1:24:49Speaker 1: Whoops cincinnati only used three relief, pitchers not a lot
- 1:24:53Speaker 1: of usage over the last couple of days really for,
- 1:24:55Speaker 1: Them SO i think we can go with this man
- 1:24:58Speaker 1: as far as the full game are okay here Where
- 1:25:01Speaker 1: milwaukee's just completely, arrested SO i think we can go
- 1:25:04Speaker 1: with that as. Well they're actually still there eighth in
- 1:25:07Speaker 1: bullpenny a, right so their bullpen's actually gotten better again,
- 1:25:10Speaker 1: recently even without their cloths are, There, miguil their bullpen
- 1:25:13Speaker 1: has actually been. Solid cincinnati's is, worse for, sure but
- 1:25:16Speaker 1: they're still middle of the pack a below FOUR, era
- 1:25:19Speaker 1: so that's still not bad at, Fifteenth SO i think
- 1:25:21Speaker 1: we can go with the under here starting. Pitching of,
- 1:25:24Speaker 1: course as a component to, THIS i think both these
- 1:25:26Speaker 1: pitchers might still be a little bit under the radar
- 1:25:28Speaker 1: because they're not big names or anything like. That Was
- 1:25:31Speaker 1: Zach lyttel pitching for The. Reds his one problem is
- 1:25:34Speaker 1: he gives a lot of home, runs but maybe that'll
- 1:25:36Speaker 1: be less of a concern At milwaukee because they're not
- 1:25:38Speaker 1: as hit or friendly a. Ballpark he's got a three
- 1:25:41Speaker 1: point eight SIX era one point one whip on the,
- 1:25:43Speaker 1: season pretty, good AND i think he's got to be
- 1:25:46Speaker 1: motivated coming into this one. MAN i, mean the season
- 1:25:48Speaker 1: is on the line. Here this is why he's. Here
- 1:25:51Speaker 1: they picked him up at the trade. Deadline he was
- 1:25:53Speaker 1: On Tampa. Bay Tampa bay's out of it, now so
- 1:25:55Speaker 1: he's got to be pumped to be on a team
- 1:25:57Speaker 1: that still is in it this. Late HIS era is
- 1:26:00Speaker 1: not is good on the road four point oh, one
- 1:26:03Speaker 1: but STILL i Mean he's been decent either way still
- 1:26:08Speaker 1: since being acquired By cincinnati im and he did well
- 1:26:10Speaker 1: in the month Of, august had a twenty one to
- 1:26:12Speaker 1: six strike a walk racier in a three point ninety R.
- 1:26:14Speaker 1: Ra he's allowed more than three on runs only three
- 1:26:17Speaker 1: times since they got him more than four only, once
- 1:26:20Speaker 1: which was this. Month it was Against toronto good. Offense
- 1:26:24Speaker 1: they hit him for four home runs, though so it
- 1:26:26Speaker 1: was a little bit of an outlier. THERE i, know
- 1:26:28Speaker 1: AS i, said he does allow too many home, runs
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: but that was at home at That cincinnati home run friendly,
- 1:26:33Speaker 1: ballpark SO i think he should do better than that outing.
- 1:26:36Speaker 1: Here toronto's a better offense Than milwaukee as. Well he
- 1:26:40Speaker 1: has a five point five to SEVENTY arra this, month
- 1:26:42Speaker 1: mostly because of that, start and then he wasn't terrific
- 1:26:45Speaker 1: At Saint louis give it fourign, runs which is a
- 1:26:47Speaker 1: little bit of a concern because their offense is. Bad
- 1:26:49Speaker 1: but he still has a seventeen to three strike a
- 1:26:51Speaker 1: walk ratier this, month so he's not putting a lot
- 1:26:54Speaker 1: of guys on. Base, again With, luttel the problem is
- 1:26:56Speaker 1: always the home. Runs he's allowed way too many home
- 1:26:58Speaker 1: runs thirty six this month or thirty six this month
- 1:27:02Speaker 1: of being saying thirty six this, year but he's still
- 1:27:04Speaker 1: allowed way fewer in the one hit per. Inning his
- 1:27:07Speaker 1: strikeout walk ratio is still saw. It he doesn't strike
- 1:27:09Speaker 1: out a lot of, guys but he doesn't put a
- 1:27:10Speaker 1: lot of guys on, base SO i think he can
- 1:27:12Speaker 1: hold the offense down while he's out. There and his
- 1:27:15Speaker 1: numbers are good Against, milwaukee like surprisingly good and fifty
- 1:27:18Speaker 1: two at bats nine to four strike a walk ratio
- 1:27:21Speaker 1: is not, great but two thirty one batting average allowed
- 1:27:23Speaker 1: in five seventy four ohps and they don't have any
- 1:27:26Speaker 1: home runs off SO i know it might happen in this,
- 1:27:29Speaker 1: game but he does do well Against, milwaukee SO i
- 1:27:32Speaker 1: think we can go with him. Here Quinn priester is
- 1:27:34Speaker 1: pitching For. MILWAUKEE i, mean this is just. Ridiculous what's
- 1:27:37Speaker 1: been going on with? Him good numbers this year three
- 1:27:40Speaker 1: point two FIVE, era one point two to, one with
- 1:27:42Speaker 1: nearly has two losses on the. Season it's just so.
- 1:27:46Speaker 1: Ridiculous he's been a little bit worse at home three
- 1:27:49Speaker 1: point SEVENTY ra and. HOMES i know we're going against
- 1:27:51Speaker 1: the home road splits, here BUT i still like this
- 1:27:54Speaker 1: one priests allowed two or fewer on runs in six straight.
- 1:27:58Speaker 1: Outings and the ridiculous thing about him THAT i was
- 1:28:00Speaker 1: referring to Is milwaukee has won nineteen of his appearances
- 1:28:03Speaker 1: in a. ROW i believe seventeen or sixteen of them were,
- 1:28:07Speaker 1: starts and the other ones he was like a, follower
- 1:28:09Speaker 1: where he had basically his starter's workload for the most
- 1:28:12Speaker 1: part coming after an. Opener it's just. Insane The milwaukee
- 1:28:15Speaker 1: has won nineteen games in a row that he's appeared
- 1:28:18Speaker 1: and he's basically been getting a starter's workload that whole.
- 1:28:21Speaker 1: TIME i, MEAN i don't think we've ever seen anything
- 1:28:23Speaker 1: like this. BEFORE i, know the advanced analytics guys don't
- 1:28:27Speaker 1: like him because they think his numbers basically indicate that
- 1:28:30Speaker 1: he should be worse than. This and while that probably is,
- 1:28:32Speaker 1: true he can't really argue with what he's been, doing.
- 1:28:35Speaker 1: MAN i, mean three era this, month twenty one to
- 1:28:38Speaker 1: four strike a walk ratio is. Solid he may continue
- 1:28:42Speaker 1: pitching well, here, man and that's what we're banking on
- 1:28:44Speaker 1: here Against. Cincinnati he's got pretty good numbers and forty
- 1:28:47Speaker 1: nine career at, bats ten to six strike a walk
- 1:28:50Speaker 1: ratio is not good to the half The walks Or
- 1:28:51Speaker 1: Dala cruz so kind of just pitching around. Him and
- 1:28:55Speaker 1: he's a lot of one to eighty four batting average to,
- 1:28:57Speaker 1: them little bit high six SIXTY opi, yes but still
- 1:29:01Speaker 1: they have not hit him very well for. Contact so
- 1:29:03Speaker 1: we will go under in this game as. Well this
- 1:29:05Speaker 1: one a full. Game Under money is agreeing with this one.
- 1:29:08Speaker 1: Too the total flip from eight juicy over to eight
- 1:29:10Speaker 1: juice to the under fifty percent of tickets on the,
- 1:29:12Speaker 1: under ninety six percent of the cash on the. Under
- 1:29:15Speaker 1: so we're going under in this. One as far as the,
- 1:29:17Speaker 1: Side milwaukee is public seventy seven percent of, tickets but
- 1:29:20Speaker 1: they actually have ninety two percent of the cash on.
- 1:29:23Speaker 1: Them money line up for minus one fifty to minus one.
- 1:29:25Speaker 1: SIXTY i don't really agree with That cincinnati BECAUSE i
- 1:29:29Speaker 1: think they have a big motivational ledge. HERE i would
- 1:29:32Speaker 1: look Towards cincinnati getting that underdog price, there BUT i
- 1:29:36Speaker 1: think under is the preferred way to play. That let's
- 1:29:39Speaker 1: get into college, football, MAN i know this is the
- 1:29:41Speaker 1: best bets segment, two but college. Football i'm gonna be
- 1:29:45Speaker 1: on two of the three games, here so and hopefully
- 1:29:47Speaker 1: we can still get the number on the first game
- 1:29:49Speaker 1: up As Florida state At. Virginia you're not gonna like
- 1:29:52Speaker 1: this at. All nobody's gonna like. This we're gonna go
- 1:29:55Speaker 1: With virginia plus. SEVEN i wouldn't necessarily want to take
- 1:29:58Speaker 1: the six and a. HALF i, mean you, know seven
- 1:30:00Speaker 1: is a key. Number it's the touchdown threshold in football,
- 1:30:04Speaker 1: obviously so seven is a key. Number so you'd rather
- 1:30:06Speaker 1: be getting the touchdowns if they, lose my exactly that,
- 1:30:09Speaker 1: amount and you'll push rather than be a. LOSS i
- 1:30:11Speaker 1: think the seven is probably still out, there and if it's,
- 1:30:13Speaker 1: not you'll probably find it throughout the day because the
- 1:30:15Speaker 1: public is going to be all Over Florida state, here.
- 1:30:18Speaker 1: Man and this is really this is About Florida state being.
- 1:30:21Speaker 1: OVERVALUED i know the total is really. High it's something
- 1:30:24Speaker 1: from fifty nine to. Sixty both these offenses can absolutely,
- 1:30:28Speaker 1: score SO i do worry about. That that a lot of,
- 1:30:30Speaker 1: times a high scoring game does lend itself to a
- 1:30:32Speaker 1: favorite being able to. Cover BUT i just think, that
- 1:30:36Speaker 1: like the stock is too high On Florida state right.
- 1:30:39Speaker 1: Now you're playing it almost like a stock. MARKET i
- 1:30:41Speaker 1: Think Florida state is just very overvalued. Here so we
- 1:30:44Speaker 1: will do, this the money is at least not really
- 1:30:47Speaker 1: coming in on the over eighty five percent of tickets
- 1:30:50Speaker 1: on the, over because you, know the public's gonna see
- 1:30:52Speaker 1: this and want to just only playing over here with
- 1:30:54Speaker 1: How Florida state has been, scoring and they could probably
- 1:30:56Speaker 1: see That virginia has been good offensively, too so the
- 1:30:59Speaker 1: public's probably gonna come in just on the over. Here
- 1:31:02Speaker 1: and WHILE i would really not want to have an underticket,
- 1:31:04Speaker 1: here the money is at least not quite as heavy
- 1:31:07Speaker 1: on the over. There it's sixty nine percent of the
- 1:31:09Speaker 1: cash on the, over ALTHOUGH i would not be surprised
- 1:31:12Speaker 1: at all if this game went over. OBVIOUSLY i mean
- 1:31:14Speaker 1: it's you, KNOW i, MEAN i would not want to
- 1:31:16Speaker 1: be sitting on an underticket really in this. One but
- 1:31:19Speaker 1: we are gonna go with the. UNDERDOG i, Mean Florida
- 1:31:21Speaker 1: state's up to eighth in the, country and, like what
- 1:31:23Speaker 1: have they done to deserve? This? Man Florida, State they're
- 1:31:26Speaker 1: coming off a horrendous, season and, yeah of course they
- 1:31:29Speaker 1: are better this, year but how much better are they?
- 1:31:31Speaker 1: REALLY i don't, know because if you look at the power, ratings,
- 1:31:34Speaker 1: guys like really respected power, Ratings Florida state is like
- 1:31:37Speaker 1: barely in the top twenty five right, now they're like
- 1:31:40Speaker 1: somewhere between twenty and twenty, five but they're being ranked
- 1:31:43Speaker 1: eighth in the, country so they're definitely overrated right. Now,
- 1:31:46Speaker 1: man what have they? Done it's all because they Beat.
- 1:31:48Speaker 1: Alabama but, YEAH i mean that's a big. Win they Beat.
- 1:31:51Speaker 1: Alabama they were a double digit. Underdog it's. Impressive but
- 1:31:55Speaker 1: think about, it, Man, alabama they were going with a
- 1:31:58Speaker 1: true freshman Quarterback, simpson WHO i think is gonna be,
- 1:32:01Speaker 1: good and he's starting to get pretty, good but that
- 1:32:03Speaker 1: was a tough spot for him and his first game
- 1:32:06Speaker 1: starting for like this Program. Alabama you, know the pressure
- 1:32:11Speaker 1: is on you in that spot and you're expected to.
- 1:32:13Speaker 1: Win you have to go on the road into a hostile.
- 1:32:15Speaker 1: Environment that's not easy at. All so that's kind of
- 1:32:19Speaker 1: part of the reason WHY i Think alabama just didn't
- 1:32:21Speaker 1: do as well. There and then since, Then Florida state
- 1:32:24Speaker 1: beat up On East TEXAS a AND m AND fcs.
- 1:32:26Speaker 1: TEAM i know they put up seventy seven points against,
- 1:32:29Speaker 1: them but, still what can we really tell from, THAT
- 1:32:31Speaker 1: i don't. Know then they Beat Kent state sixty six to.
- 1:32:34Speaker 1: Ten Kent state is. Awful they're AN fbs, team but
- 1:32:37Speaker 1: they're one of the absolute worst teams in all of THE.
- 1:32:39Speaker 1: Fbs so we don't really know Who Florida state is, yet,
- 1:32:43Speaker 1: man and this is gonna be their first road. TEST
- 1:32:45Speaker 1: i know it's a conference. GAME i know it's their
- 1:32:48Speaker 1: first conference game And virginia has already played a conference.
- 1:32:51Speaker 1: Game but you Know virginia is gonna get up for.
- 1:32:52Speaker 1: This this game is ON. Espn, YEAH i mean both
- 1:32:55Speaker 1: teams should get up for it because it's a primetime,
- 1:32:58Speaker 1: game BUT i think it means more To, virginia, man
- 1:33:00Speaker 1: because how often Does virginia get to host a PRIMETIME
- 1:33:03Speaker 1: espn game against a big name team Like Florida. State
- 1:33:07Speaker 1: Like virginia is gonna be super motivated for, this or
- 1:33:09Speaker 1: Is Florida. State they're just kind of been rolling. ALONG
- 1:33:12Speaker 1: i haven't exactly been tested for a, while at least
- 1:33:15Speaker 1: since The alabama. Game and they have a big game
- 1:33:17Speaker 1: up next, man Against, miami who's ranked number two in the,
- 1:33:20Speaker 1: country WHICH i Think miami's overrated. TOO i think they
- 1:33:23Speaker 1: may be a top ten, team BUT i don't think
- 1:33:25Speaker 1: they're number. Two but, still that's a huge game and
- 1:33:28Speaker 1: it's a Big florida rivalry as Well Florida state Against.
- 1:33:31Speaker 1: Miami So Florida state might be starting to look ahead
- 1:33:34Speaker 1: a little bit here man To. Miami SO i really
- 1:33:36Speaker 1: don't like. THIS i just Think Florida state hasn't done
- 1:33:40Speaker 1: enough yet to really be ranked this. Highly Man like
- 1:33:42Speaker 1: they would still be an underdog Against, alabama And alabama
- 1:33:45Speaker 1: is ranked seventeenth or something right, Now like the rankings
- 1:33:49Speaker 1: makers are just they're just going totally on recency. Bias
- 1:33:53Speaker 1: they don't know what the fuck they're. Doing it looks
- 1:33:55Speaker 1: way too easy to Take Florida state here man seventy
- 1:33:58Speaker 1: four percent of, tickets only seventy percent of the cash from.
- 1:34:00Speaker 1: Them the books are almost begging you to lay the
- 1:34:02Speaker 1: price With Florida state. HERE i don't want to do.
- 1:34:05Speaker 1: IT i know their quarterbacks at least. Experienced they Have castellanos,
- 1:34:09Speaker 1: there BUT i still think he's a head. Case he
- 1:34:11Speaker 1: basically turned his back ON bc it just left and
- 1:34:14Speaker 1: he was just being a total. Asshole SO i do
- 1:34:17Speaker 1: have some. BIAS i don't want to see him do well.
- 1:34:19Speaker 1: Here BUT i still don't Think Florida state could be
- 1:34:22Speaker 1: this much improved over last. Year the last. YEAR i
- 1:34:25Speaker 1: think they underperformed last. YEAR i think once they knew
- 1:34:28Speaker 1: they were out of, it they just kind of stopped
- 1:34:30Speaker 1: trying and they had some injuries and. Whatever last year
- 1:34:33Speaker 1: they you, know they had all those guys bail on The.
- 1:34:36Speaker 1: BOWL i think the year before that where they and
- 1:34:38Speaker 1: they lost some of their best players coming into last.
- 1:34:40Speaker 1: Year so it wasn't a great situation For Florida state last.
- 1:34:43Speaker 1: Year WHERE i went against them in their first game last,
- 1:34:46Speaker 1: year The dublin. Game Georgia tech got us an outright
- 1:34:49Speaker 1: win there on that, one But Florida, STATE i, mean
- 1:34:52Speaker 1: it's just kind of. Ridiculous, Like Florida, state after this,
- 1:34:55Speaker 1: game they'll have scored more points this season than they
- 1:34:58Speaker 1: did all of last, season and that's absolutely. Insane but,
- 1:35:03Speaker 1: AGAIN i think that makes them an over value commodity, Here, like,
- 1:35:06Speaker 1: yeah they're better this, year but they're not this much
- 1:35:09Speaker 1: better in my, Opinion so, yeah they're over. Rated right,
- 1:35:13Speaker 1: Now we're gonna go With. VIRGINIA i Think virginia is
- 1:35:15Speaker 1: actually under the radar right. Now. Man. VIRGINIA i, mean
- 1:35:19Speaker 1: they've played a couple OF fbs, Teams they've played THREE fbs.
- 1:35:22Speaker 1: Teams their only loss was one where maybe they shouldn't
- 1:35:25Speaker 1: have even lost AT Nc. State that was their only.
- 1:35:28Speaker 1: Loss it was their only road. Game they lost AT
- 1:35:30Speaker 1: Nc state in a CLOSE acc. Battle So virginia or
- 1:35:37Speaker 1: wait a, minute What wait that wasn't AN Ac wait
- 1:35:40Speaker 1: what that was AN acc? Battle? RIGHT i don't know
- 1:35:44Speaker 1: what we're talking about. HERE i don't know why it
- 1:35:45Speaker 1: says they're, UH Nc state's in THE. AM i like
- 1:35:48Speaker 1: having like a stroke or something. Like it looks like
- 1:35:50Speaker 1: they have TWO acc games AGAINST Nc state And. Stanford
- 1:35:54Speaker 1: is that not? Right where the fuck? Is? YEAH Nc state's,
- 1:35:57Speaker 1: Here so, yeah that's kind of. Bizarre it Says virginia
- 1:36:00Speaker 1: one to zero in. Conference aren't they won the? ONE
- 1:36:02Speaker 1: i don't. Know i'm confused by. That But, virginia they
- 1:36:05Speaker 1: probably should have won that game AT Nc. State, man
- 1:36:08Speaker 1: they went in. There they OUTGAINED Nc state by like
- 1:36:10Speaker 1: one hundred yards in that. Game they put up five
- 1:36:12Speaker 1: hundred yards of offense in that game against. Nccate This
- 1:36:15Speaker 1: virginia offense can move the, ball, man they absolutely can do.
- 1:36:19Speaker 1: It they should have won that. Game LIKE i, said
- 1:36:21Speaker 1: they're winning that game in the third quarter and then
- 1:36:23Speaker 1: neither team scored in the fourth. Quarter very strange game
- 1:36:27Speaker 1: based on the. Stats virginia should have won that, game
- 1:36:30Speaker 1: and they put up a ton of, points, man like
- 1:36:33Speaker 1: that was the only game and they scored less than forty.
- 1:36:35Speaker 1: EIGHT i know they've done it Against Coastal Carolina william And,
- 1:36:38Speaker 1: mary who was AN fcs, team But william And mary
- 1:36:41Speaker 1: is an in state little, brother and they still absolutely
- 1:36:43Speaker 1: smack them. Down and then last game Against. STANFORD i
- 1:36:46Speaker 1: Know stanford's a struggling team that's rebuilding right, now so
- 1:36:50Speaker 1: not a whole lot to take away from. That But
- 1:36:51Speaker 1: virginia still has been moving the ball. Offensively, MAN i
- 1:36:55Speaker 1: think they're under the radar right. Now they've been moving At,
- 1:36:58Speaker 1: morris their, quarterback and putting up some pretty gaudy. Numbers
- 1:37:01Speaker 1: they've been able to run the ball a little bit
- 1:37:03Speaker 1: With taylor as. Well morris is a little bit of
- 1:37:05Speaker 1: a dual threat as. Well the only reason why you
- 1:37:07Speaker 1: see those guys not getting on the stat sheet Against
- 1:37:09Speaker 1: william And mary is Because virginia put in their backups
- 1:37:12Speaker 1: in that game up pretty, sure because they were just way,
- 1:37:15Speaker 1: ahead so they rested their guys a little. Bit both
- 1:37:18Speaker 1: teams played last, week so both teams are on a
- 1:37:21Speaker 1: short week, here so that's not an advantage to one
- 1:37:23Speaker 1: team or the. Other, YEAH i MEAN i Think Florida state's.
- 1:37:26Speaker 1: Overvalued it's the first, road you. KNOW i think this
- 1:37:28Speaker 1: is my least of the two plays. Here but this
- 1:37:31Speaker 1: game just jumped out at. Me. Man it's, LIKE i
- 1:37:33Speaker 1: Think Florida state's. OVERVALUED i don't, know, Man maybe Maybe
- 1:37:39Speaker 1: i'm just getting too crazy because on these isolated, GAMES
- 1:37:41Speaker 1: i spend, More LIKE i pay more attention to the
- 1:37:45Speaker 1: isolated games when it's not a like a game in
- 1:37:49Speaker 1: the middle of Like saturday or. Whatever so MAYBE i
- 1:37:51Speaker 1: get too crazy on. It but LIKE i THINK i
- 1:37:53Speaker 1: do well on these isolated, games like BECAUSE i dig
- 1:37:56Speaker 1: more into, Them Like i'm perfect again on The thursday
- 1:37:59Speaker 1: night games in THE. NFL i THINK i. WON i
- 1:38:01Speaker 1: THINK i was right on the vast majority of THE
- 1:38:03Speaker 1: Nfl thursday night games last, year And i'm four and
- 1:38:05Speaker 1: zero on the side this. Year With seattle hanging on
- 1:38:08Speaker 1: for a win last night FOR, US i didn't give
- 1:38:11Speaker 1: it out as a, play BUT i leaned that way
- 1:38:12Speaker 1: and they were winning twenty to six late in the
- 1:38:14Speaker 1: game and blew it and then still won with a
- 1:38:17Speaker 1: late field. Goal but, YEAH i, MEAN i don't, know, Man,
- 1:38:20Speaker 1: like Maybe i'm putting too much weight into, these but,
- 1:38:22Speaker 1: again these primetime. Games the other thing about these, games,
- 1:38:25Speaker 1: though is that the public gets more involved in these
- 1:38:27Speaker 1: games because they want to just have some action on
- 1:38:29Speaker 1: THE tv. Games so fading the public makes more sense
- 1:38:33Speaker 1: at games like this. Too so we're Getting virginia home.
- 1:38:35Speaker 1: Underdog it is still the first road game For Florida,
- 1:38:38Speaker 1: state so that's usually a difficult spot playing your first
- 1:38:41Speaker 1: road game this late in the. Season we're gonna go With.
- 1:38:44Speaker 1: VIRGINIA i think they're. Undervalued first half under thirty and
- 1:38:48Speaker 1: a half for, Date oh, MAN i MEAN i think
- 1:38:51Speaker 1: the first. Half it seems like a good number because
- 1:38:54Speaker 1: usually the second half is more high scoring than the first.
- 1:38:56Speaker 1: Half some surprise that that number is where it is,
- 1:38:59Speaker 1: THERE i, mean it seems dangerous to me still. Though
- 1:39:03Speaker 1: On fox at nine pm Tonight eastern that's the seven
- 1:39:07Speaker 1: pm Game Florida. State In, virginia we have number twenty
- 1:39:09Speaker 1: FOUR tcu at Unranked Arizona. State But Arizona state is
- 1:39:13Speaker 1: a favorite here AND i talk about this. TOO i
- 1:39:16Speaker 1: talk about it in college. Basketball same thing applies to college.
- 1:39:19Speaker 1: Football if you get an unranked team that's a, favorite
- 1:39:23Speaker 1: over ranked, team you gotta look into that, game, man
- 1:39:26Speaker 1: because there's a reason why that unranked team is. Favorite
- 1:39:28Speaker 1: the oddsmakers are telling you that they're probably the better,
- 1:39:31Speaker 1: team although in this, case of, Course Arizona state is
- 1:39:33Speaker 1: getting a home, field so the oddsbeakers are telling you
- 1:39:36Speaker 1: that the teams are pretty much about, even although in
- 1:39:39Speaker 1: this case it's not like a huge like it's not
- 1:39:43Speaker 1: really like that strange BECAUSE tcu is barely cracking the
- 1:39:46Speaker 1: top twenty five here In Arizona state is basically just
- 1:39:48Speaker 1: out of the top twenty five right. Now so maybe
- 1:39:50Speaker 1: it's not as weird to See Arizona state as a
- 1:39:52Speaker 1: favorite in a game like this, one BUT i think
- 1:39:54Speaker 1: it's still is kind of this situation where the public
- 1:39:57Speaker 1: is still gonna see this and, think, OH TCUs are ranked.
- 1:40:00Speaker 1: Team they're getting. Points that's the way THAT i want
- 1:40:01Speaker 1: to go, here AND i do not agree with. THAT
- 1:40:04Speaker 1: i would lay the three points Of Arizona state IF
- 1:40:07Speaker 1: i was going to play this. Game the total has gone,
- 1:40:09Speaker 1: down WHICH i think actually Favors Arizona state because the
- 1:40:13Speaker 1: total is down for fifty six and a half to
- 1:40:14Speaker 1: fifty four and a. HALF i know we see eighty
- 1:40:16Speaker 1: six percent tickets on the over ninety one percent of
- 1:40:18Speaker 1: the cash on the. OVER i don't know IF i
- 1:40:20Speaker 1: buy that cash. Percentage If Arizona state is going to
- 1:40:23Speaker 1: do well in this, GAME i think that means their
- 1:40:25Speaker 1: defense is coming to. Play AND i think they're correlated
- 1:40:27Speaker 1: with the under in this game because you HAVE, tcu
- 1:40:30Speaker 1: which is a team that's all offense Against Arizona state
- 1:40:33Speaker 1: who has an okay offense and a good. Defense and
- 1:40:36Speaker 1: you know, ME i like the better. Defense i'd prefer
- 1:40:39Speaker 1: the better defense getting. Points BUT i still Think arizona
- 1:40:42Speaker 1: laying a small price like this at the, three or
- 1:40:44Speaker 1: you might even want to go money line with. IT
- 1:40:46Speaker 1: i still Think Arizona state should get this, done win the.
- 1:40:49Speaker 1: GAME i think their defense should get the job done for. Them.
- 1:40:52Speaker 1: Here as far AS, tcu they are coming off a
- 1:40:56Speaker 1: pretty big game AGAINST. Smu we haven't really seen much FROM.
- 1:40:59Speaker 1: TAT i, mean we saw them Annihilate Bill. Belichick everybody
- 1:41:03Speaker 1: saw that. Game But North carolina is not. Good they
- 1:41:06Speaker 1: have a bad. Defense they've been really, bad so not
- 1:41:09Speaker 1: much we can take away from. THAT tcu actually didn't
- 1:41:11Speaker 1: do that impressively AGAINST Fcs Abilene christian who's not really
- 1:41:15Speaker 1: that bad a, team BUT tcu only beat them forty
- 1:41:18Speaker 1: two to twenty. One maybe they were kind of just
- 1:41:19Speaker 1: sandwiched in there not really paying attention to that game
- 1:41:22Speaker 1: looking ahead as well to THE smu game, there and
- 1:41:25Speaker 1: that's the game they played last they BEAT. SMU TCU
- 1:41:29Speaker 1: i think had a bye early in the, season which
- 1:41:31Speaker 1: is not very. HELPFUL i, mean having a bye After
- 1:41:33Speaker 1: week one kind of. STUPID i don't know, why but
- 1:41:36Speaker 1: teams get two buys in college, now so. Whatever but
- 1:41:40Speaker 1: they PLAYED smu this past, Week Big texas. Game, MAN
- 1:41:44Speaker 1: i know they're still gonna get up for this game
- 1:41:45Speaker 1: because this is their first conference. Game so it's still
- 1:41:48Speaker 1: a big game for both teams because it is, again you,
- 1:41:52Speaker 1: know it's a game between two teams they're gonna be
- 1:41:54Speaker 1: vying to win the conference again here probably so Especially Arizona,
- 1:41:57Speaker 1: State so it is a big. Game BUT tcu is
- 1:42:00Speaker 1: coming off That Big texas game as well AGAINST. Smu
- 1:42:04Speaker 1: Arizona state is coming up a big game as. Well
- 1:42:06Speaker 1: they had a nice road win At, baylor so this
- 1:42:09Speaker 1: is not their first conference. Game they just played a
- 1:42:11Speaker 1: conference game and they're traveling back home and playing a
- 1:42:15Speaker 1: second straight conference. Game so both teams are kind of
- 1:42:18Speaker 1: playing two step up games in a row, here SO
- 1:42:22Speaker 1: i think that kind of negates itself as far as
- 1:42:24Speaker 1: how big a game this is for either. Team Arizona
- 1:42:26Speaker 1: state has played a more difficult, schedule though they already
- 1:42:29Speaker 1: did have to play AN sec, Team Mississippi, state on the.
- 1:42:31Speaker 1: Road it was a tough game and they lost that,
- 1:42:34Speaker 1: game and then they Played baylor, Already So Arizona state
- 1:42:37Speaker 1: actually has played two teams that are better than every
- 1:42:40Speaker 1: team AT tcu has. Played So Arizona state has played
- 1:42:43Speaker 1: a more difficult. Schedule baylor And Mississippi state are both
- 1:42:47Speaker 1: better than any opponent THAT tcu has faced so. FAR
- 1:42:49Speaker 1: i know people REMEMBER smu being in the playoffs last,
- 1:42:52Speaker 1: year BUT i just don't think they're that. GOOD. Tcu,
- 1:42:54Speaker 1: yeah they could, score but their defense is very. QUESTIONABLE
- 1:42:57Speaker 1: i Think Arizona state should be able to get some
- 1:42:59Speaker 1: point in this one against that, deepfense AND i think
- 1:43:01Speaker 1: their deep ens should be able to HOLD tcu in.
- 1:43:04Speaker 1: Check Arizona state's more battle. Tested that would be my
- 1:43:07Speaker 1: lean in that. One Arizona state UH ncaa players are getting,
- 1:43:12Speaker 1: Paid yes they are with THE, nil WHICH i think
- 1:43:15Speaker 1: they should, be but it kind of like leads to
- 1:43:17Speaker 1: weird situations where that combined with the transfer, portal now
- 1:43:21Speaker 1: means players can just kind of go where they're gonna
- 1:43:23Speaker 1: get paid more. Money and it kind of it makes
- 1:43:26Speaker 1: like it makes THE ncaaa more top, heavy, Right like
- 1:43:29Speaker 1: it makes all these top teams and that like the
- 1:43:31Speaker 1: big conference teams in THE. Ncaaa it makes them all,
- 1:43:34Speaker 1: good and it kind of makes the little guys take
- 1:43:36Speaker 1: a step back and have less of a. Shot SO
- 1:43:38Speaker 1: i kind of don't like that where a lot of
- 1:43:39Speaker 1: times you'd have the experienced guys like just playing their
- 1:43:42Speaker 1: entire career with the little. Guys BUT i, mean, YEAH i,
- 1:43:46Speaker 1: MEAN i, guess, UH i, mean that's that's just the new.
- 1:43:49Speaker 1: WAY i guess some THINGS i think are good about,
- 1:43:52Speaker 1: It LIKE i do think the players deserve to be.
- 1:43:54Speaker 1: Paid but the fact that it's kind of top loading
- 1:43:57Speaker 1: the THE, NCAAA i think is not really has good a.
- 1:44:00Speaker 1: Thing and let's finish this. Off i'm gonna have a
- 1:44:02Speaker 1: play on this one, Too Oregon state plus thirteen and a.
- 1:44:04Speaker 1: Half if you want to wait on this to try
- 1:44:06Speaker 1: to get, fourteen you could definitely do that. TOO i
- 1:44:09Speaker 1: don't know if it's gonna get. There but the two
- 1:44:10Speaker 1: touchdowns would be nice. HERE i like this Against. Houston,
- 1:44:13Speaker 1: man the MORE i dug into this, One i'm, like,
- 1:44:15Speaker 1: yeah this is probably my favorite of these. Plays and
- 1:44:18Speaker 1: the public is Taking houston eighty percent of tickets only
- 1:44:21Speaker 1: seventy percent of the cash On. Houston houston's up from
- 1:44:24Speaker 1: eleven and a half to thirteen and a. Half but
- 1:44:26Speaker 1: the other thing you got to notice here is that
- 1:44:28Speaker 1: this is a really low. Total it's seve from forty
- 1:44:30Speaker 1: eight and a half to forty eight Because Oregon state
- 1:44:32Speaker 1: not really good offensively And houston is good. Defensively but
- 1:44:36Speaker 1: when you're getting a really low total like, this getting
- 1:44:39Speaker 1: a double digit, underdog every point means more when the
- 1:44:42Speaker 1: total is this, low, Man so you're getting a lot
- 1:44:44Speaker 1: of value playing an, underdog especially at home in a
- 1:44:47Speaker 1: game like this where the total is that, Low, like
- 1:44:49Speaker 1: what do you Expect Oregon state to score in the
- 1:44:51Speaker 1: single digits? Here that's pretty much the Way houston is
- 1:44:54Speaker 1: gonna be able to cover that number and for the
- 1:44:57Speaker 1: number to still go UNDER i mean almost that's what
- 1:44:59Speaker 1: you're Base he's saying is gonna happen. Here so, YEAH i,
- 1:45:03Speaker 1: MEAN i think it's a lot of value getting that
- 1:45:05Speaker 1: many points with the, game it's supposed to be that
- 1:45:07Speaker 1: low scoring seventy one percent of tickets eighty nine percent
- 1:45:09Speaker 1: of the cash coming in on the, over but the
- 1:45:12Speaker 1: total did drop a little, bit SO i don't know
- 1:45:13Speaker 1: IF i buy. That public might not even pay attention
- 1:45:17Speaker 1: to this game as far as wanted to play an
- 1:45:18Speaker 1: over Because houston's offense has really not been, impressive which
- 1:45:22Speaker 1: is another, thing another reason WHY i THINK i want
- 1:45:24Speaker 1: to kind of just go against them. Here houston really
- 1:45:27Speaker 1: hasn't played. Anybody they BEAT Fcs STEPHEN. F, austin which
- 1:45:32Speaker 1: was an in state little, brother but beat them twenty
- 1:45:34Speaker 1: seven or, nothing but. Whatever then they Played, rice WHICH
- 1:45:37Speaker 1: i Know rice is an in city little, brother But
- 1:45:40Speaker 1: rice just isn't that. Good rice is trying to switch
- 1:45:43Speaker 1: over to like a triple. OPTION i, Mean rice can't
- 1:45:46Speaker 1: score right. Now they're. Bad houston was able to beat.
- 1:45:49Speaker 1: THEM i Know rice did Beat charlotte the other. NIGHT
- 1:45:51Speaker 1: i think it one of the primetime, games but, still
- 1:45:54Speaker 1: these are not impressive wins For. Houston and then the
- 1:45:56Speaker 1: best team they faced Was colorado and they beat Them,
- 1:46:01Speaker 1: colorado and we know they're not what they were last.
- 1:46:03Speaker 1: Year they don't Have, sanders they don't Have hunter. Anymore
- 1:46:05Speaker 1: they do Have dion as their coach. Still But i'm
- 1:46:07Speaker 1: not impressed by any of these games That houston has
- 1:46:10Speaker 1: played so, Far, Man and this is gonna be the
- 1:46:12Speaker 1: first game that they're leaving the city Of. Houston so
- 1:46:15Speaker 1: think about. That they have one road game At, rice
- 1:46:18Speaker 1: but that was In, houston Because rice is In. Houston
- 1:46:21Speaker 1: So houston has not left the city Of houston so.
- 1:46:24Speaker 1: Far and now they have to go play in an
- 1:46:26Speaker 1: unfamiliar venue where they don't usually play At Oregon state
- 1:46:29Speaker 1: and they have to go and play on The Pacific
- 1:46:31Speaker 1: coast up Against Oregon state in a late night. Game
- 1:46:34Speaker 1: that might fuck with the team from the central times.
- 1:46:36Speaker 1: On it might fuck with their biological clock because this
- 1:46:39Speaker 1: game is basically gonna end around LIKE i don't know
- 1:46:42Speaker 1: what is it gonna end, at like ELEVEN pm the, airtime,
- 1:46:45Speaker 1: midnight the, airtime whatever the fuck it, Is so, YEAH
- 1:46:48Speaker 1: i mean something like. That so it's not an easy
- 1:46:50Speaker 1: spot for. Them and who do they have next next?
- 1:46:52Speaker 1: Week by the, Way houston has to Play Texas, tech
- 1:46:55Speaker 1: who are doing really well so. Far they're. Undefeated that's
- 1:46:59Speaker 1: a huge big twelve game and it's a Big texas
- 1:47:02Speaker 1: Versus texas game as. Well that is a huge. Game
- 1:47:05Speaker 1: SO i don't think this is a good spot at.
- 1:47:07Speaker 1: ALL i think it's a look ahead spot For houston there.
- 1:47:09Speaker 1: Too nobody's gonna Want Oregon state here at, all man
- 1:47:12Speaker 1: Because Oregon states owned four And houston's three to Ohero
- 1:47:15Speaker 1: But houston's played, nobody LIKE i, said Except colorado is
- 1:47:19Speaker 1: the best, team they, played. Whatever But Oregon state's played
- 1:47:22Speaker 1: ALL fbs. Teams they haven't faced ANY fcs. TEAMS i
- 1:47:25Speaker 1: know they Faced Calan. Fresno those teams aren't that great
- 1:47:28Speaker 1: and they lost to. THEM i know that's not a
- 1:47:30Speaker 1: good sign losing to both those teams at. Home but
- 1:47:33Speaker 1: the last two games they got battle. Tests they Played
- 1:47:35Speaker 1: Texas tech And, oregon WHICH i know that's a big,
- 1:47:38Speaker 1: rivalry but they just couldn't compete with The Oregon they
- 1:47:41Speaker 1: got completely. Outmanned they lost forty one to. Seven SO
- 1:47:43Speaker 1: i don't think this is any sort of spot Or
- 1:47:46Speaker 1: Oregon state's gonna be in like a hangover spot or
- 1:47:49Speaker 1: anything like. THAT i, mean that was just. Bad So
- 1:47:51Speaker 1: Oregon state has played the way more difficult schedule Than houston, has,
- 1:47:55Speaker 1: though And houston is a defensive. Team they're not that
- 1:47:57Speaker 1: equipped to cover a large spread like. This bad environment For,
- 1:48:01Speaker 1: houston really weird, spot bad, spot look ahead. Spot and
- 1:48:04Speaker 1: the spot's even worse for. Us so Much i'm gonna
- 1:48:06Speaker 1: talk about in a. SECOND i should have talked about it.
- 1:48:08Speaker 1: Already But Oregon, State, YEAH i mean they've played, Through
- 1:48:12Speaker 1: they've been playing every week so. Far this is a
- 1:48:14Speaker 1: home game for, Them they're back at. Home it's gonna
- 1:48:16Speaker 1: be their biggest home game so. Far they get to
- 1:48:18Speaker 1: face Another big twelve team like this is basically their
- 1:48:21Speaker 1: only other shot against a big conference team besides Facing
- 1:48:24Speaker 1: wake a little bit later in the. Season but because
- 1:48:27Speaker 1: they're one of these orphan teams in The pac two,
- 1:48:30Speaker 1: now they really don't face a difficult schedule after. This
- 1:48:33Speaker 1: so this is one of their big step up. Games.
- 1:48:35Speaker 1: Man and this one is ON. Espn like that game
- 1:48:37Speaker 1: Against wake is on A saturday, afternoon in the middle
- 1:48:40Speaker 1: of the, Day so this IS i think it might
- 1:48:42Speaker 1: be a bigger game for them here against an Undefeated
- 1:48:44Speaker 1: big twelve team ON Espn friday, night isolated prime. Time
- 1:48:48Speaker 1: this is their chance to show up for a. Game
- 1:48:51Speaker 1: they don't get games like this very. Offense SO i
- 1:48:53Speaker 1: think this is a big motivated spot For Oregon. State
- 1:48:56Speaker 1: i'm not sure that it really is For. Houston and
- 1:48:59Speaker 1: For houston, YEAH i mean it's a road out of
- 1:49:02Speaker 1: conference game, too so it means a little bit less
- 1:49:03Speaker 1: than them, too because everything even if even If houston
- 1:49:06Speaker 1: loses this, game everything is still in front of them
- 1:49:09Speaker 1: as far as trying to win The Big, twelve if
- 1:49:11Speaker 1: that's what their goal is, here because they're want to
- 1:49:13Speaker 1: know in The Big twelve so. Far but the other
- 1:49:14Speaker 1: thing about this Is houston is coming out of a
- 1:49:16Speaker 1: bye and you might, say, well that's a good thing
- 1:49:19Speaker 1: because they, rested BUT i actually don't think. So when
- 1:49:22Speaker 1: you're a team that's three and OH i talk about,
- 1:49:24Speaker 1: This if you have a buye and an inopportune time like,
- 1:49:26Speaker 1: that it's like everything's going well for, You so what
- 1:49:29Speaker 1: do you use the buye. For, yeah you might prepare
- 1:49:31Speaker 1: something For Oregon, state but everything's working for. You you have
- 1:49:34Speaker 1: nothing to. Fix so coming going into a buy on
- 1:49:37Speaker 1: a good note like, THAT i think it's a momentum.
- 1:49:39Speaker 1: Stopper like teams then went into a buy in a bad.
- 1:49:42Speaker 1: Note you want to look for them coming out of
- 1:49:44Speaker 1: the buy to do better because they have a bunch
- 1:49:46Speaker 1: of shit to fix during the. Buy but when everything's,
- 1:49:48Speaker 1: working you're gonna kind of relax on that buy and, think,
- 1:49:51Speaker 1: hey look at how good we. Are. Man we don't
- 1:49:52Speaker 1: have anything to. Fix we're doing well. Whatever and they
- 1:49:55Speaker 1: might spend some time prepping For Texas tech, too man,
- 1:49:57Speaker 1: like they might not be focused as much on this.
- 1:50:00Speaker 1: Game so we're gonna go with The Oregon state in
- 1:50:03Speaker 1: this one man plus the. Points MAYBE i shouldn't go
- 1:50:06Speaker 1: With virginia though Maybe i'm pushing, it but that is
- 1:50:08Speaker 1: gonna be, it man for. Today those are the best
- 1:50:10Speaker 1: bets that pisses you off as far as THE. Nil
- 1:50:17Speaker 1: you get a college, scholarship play sports that you get
- 1:50:19Speaker 1: paid on top of. That, yeah, yeah so well with
- 1:50:23Speaker 1: the military military doesn't have THE. Nil the military schools
- 1:50:27Speaker 1: are not allowed to participate in, it which might piss
- 1:50:30Speaker 1: you off more, actually because that means the military schools
- 1:50:33Speaker 1: are going to be taking a step back to the, Military, Army,
- 1:50:36Speaker 1: navy Air, force. Whatever they're not allowed to participate in
- 1:50:39Speaker 1: THE nil or the transfer, Portal so those teams are
- 1:50:43Speaker 1: gonna like probably have a pretty significant drop off, too
- 1:50:46Speaker 1: which is crazier easier to get scholarships from A d.
- 1:50:50Speaker 1: ONE i, mean, yeah college is basically. Free they're making
- 1:50:57Speaker 1: money while being. There, yeah but LIKE i mean, COLLEGE
- 1:51:01Speaker 1: i mean the academic portion of. COLLEGE i mean it's
- 1:51:04Speaker 1: kind OF bs like. College these colleges are kind of indoctrination.
- 1:51:08Speaker 1: Center so like if guys want to go and the
- 1:51:10Speaker 1: only thing they're doing is playing, football, Like i'm, fine
- 1:51:13Speaker 1: but that ALTHOUGH i know a lot of these guys
- 1:51:14Speaker 1: are not good. DUDES i know, that so there is
- 1:51:17Speaker 1: that as. Well but you went to VM. I, YEAH
- 1:51:22Speaker 1: i pay more attention to vm i's basketball BECAUSE i
- 1:51:25Speaker 1: take all Of division. ONE i handicap all Of division
- 1:51:29Speaker 1: one in, basketball which is a huge amount of work
- 1:51:31Speaker 1: to do. It and it really sucked for me last year,
- 1:51:33Speaker 1: too which is REALLY i was really good the last
- 1:51:36Speaker 1: couple of years in college basketball and last year was
- 1:51:38Speaker 1: terrible or this past, year SO i don't, know but
- 1:51:40Speaker 1: VM i either' in the SoCon or whatever THAT i
- 1:51:43Speaker 1: pay attention a little bit to. THEM i THINK i
- 1:51:45Speaker 1: had at least one or two bets on VM i
- 1:51:47Speaker 1: this past. Season BUT i, MEAN i, still in my,
- 1:51:52Speaker 1: OPINION i do think players are probably deserving to be
- 1:51:55Speaker 1: getting paid for you know that work that they're doing,
- 1:51:58Speaker 1: There SO i don't really have a problem with. That
- 1:52:00Speaker 1: BUT i MEAN i see what you're, saying like, YEAH
- 1:52:03Speaker 1: i mean they kind of have this like advantage LIKE
- 1:52:05Speaker 1: i guess over everybody. Else but like, AGAIN i, mean
- 1:52:09Speaker 1: colleges are just in doctrination centers. Anyway SO i just
- 1:52:12Speaker 1: don't really care that much about. IT i, MEAN i don't, know,
- 1:52:17Speaker 1: Man and maybe the scholarship stuff might dial back a
- 1:52:20Speaker 1: little bit because THE nil coming into. PLAY i don't
- 1:52:22Speaker 1: know if that affects the scholarships in some, way like
- 1:52:25Speaker 1: maybe like these guys won't be on a scholarship as
- 1:52:28Speaker 1: much and they'll just use some of THEIR nil money
- 1:52:30Speaker 1: to just pay for college or. Whatever i'm not sure
- 1:52:32Speaker 1: how it works exactly, now but we will. SEE i
- 1:52:35Speaker 1: gotta get out of, HERE i gotta eat some, lunch
- 1:52:36Speaker 1: and this is gonna be it for. Me today we

- 1:54:16Speaker 1: been like obsessed with like, sports especially, baseball like sports
- 1:54:20Speaker 1: statistics SINCE i was a. Kid so, yeah and then
- 1:54:24Speaker 1: got into really trying to like predict. Them oh thank.

- 1:55:06Speaker 1: couple of times with them. Too like we all know,
- 1:55:07Speaker 1: sports we all talk about. SPORTS i have a different
- 1:55:10Speaker 1: perspective where they disagree with me all the time BECAUSE
- 1:55:12Speaker 1: i have the very contrariant views on trying to predict
- 1:55:17Speaker 1: these games and. Whatever SO i don't. Know But, COLE i,
