Transcript
- 0:09Speaker 1: All system's going clear. We left up.
- 0:40Speaker 2: What is going on ship at Nation YouTube station back
- 0:44Speaker 2: Tuesday here to break down. I believe it's what a
- 0:47Speaker 2: twelve game slate now because that the Yankees game did
- 0:50Speaker 2: get waxed twelve or is it thirteen or twelve or
- 0:53Speaker 2: thirteen something like that.
- 0:54Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 0:54Speaker 2: I'm getting a massive slates confused with yesterday and today.
- 0:58Speaker 2: Usually Mondays, we don't have full full slates like we
- 1:01Speaker 2: did yesterday, but that's what they all start break we'll
- 1:04Speaker 2: do to you looking to dive back in here. We
- 1:06Speaker 2: got coors Field back in our lives here g rising
- 1:09Speaker 2: in a much better matchup for both teams I think
- 1:12Speaker 2: today than yesterday and yesterday. You still yielded some runs,
- 1:16Speaker 2: obviously you have the Wrigley game as well, but much
- 1:19Speaker 2: different conditions today than yesterday. Got some other good spots
- 1:23Speaker 2: across the board, and we don't have very good pitching.
- 1:26Speaker 2: We have one guy that kind of stands out above
- 1:28Speaker 2: the rest in that same matchup that everyone wanted to
- 1:31Speaker 2: play yesterday back in our lives out in Seattle. But
- 1:35Speaker 2: we'll do our best to kind of break it all
- 1:37Speaker 2: down here. Bring you in man, Happy Tuesday. What's going
- 1:40Speaker 2: on brother man.
- 1:41Speaker 3: Glad to be back after the week off last week,
- 1:44Speaker 3: we you know, with the All Star breaks, So glad
- 1:46Speaker 3: to be back at it here. But yeah, we got
- 1:49Speaker 3: an interesting slate, big one. We already lost the one,
- 1:51Speaker 3: so yeah, it is twelve games, but yeah, interesting one
- 1:55Speaker 3: to break down.
- 1:55Speaker 1: Like you said, pitching ain't too good.
- 1:57Speaker 3: I mean, the guys you want to pay up for
- 1:59Speaker 3: burn you know up at the top, Gossman, It's like
- 2:01Speaker 3: you just don't want to pay up for those guys.
- 2:04Speaker 1: So tough one.
- 2:06Speaker 3: I think we're gonna have to maybe make some uncomfortable
- 2:08Speaker 3: pitching decisions. Especially we're sitting with a game total thirteen
- 2:11Speaker 3: out there in course field, so we know, uh, all
- 2:14Speaker 3: the optos, everybody's gonna be pushing toward that game, both
- 2:17Speaker 3: sides of the field, so that that one should be interesting.
- 2:20Speaker 3: But yeah, interesting slate here. I think, uh, I got
- 2:24Speaker 3: a couple pitchers that maybe be a little different than
- 2:28Speaker 3: a few that I might jam in, especially on DK.
- 2:31Speaker 3: It seems to be a little easier to jam in
- 2:33Speaker 3: Burns on FANDO with some course field bats, but not
- 2:36Speaker 3: so much on DK.
- 2:37Speaker 1: So we're gonna have to play some cheaper guys.
- 2:40Speaker 3: Looks like, you know, it looks like my tiger out
- 2:43Speaker 3: here out in Wriglely or Wrigly might be. Valdaz might
- 2:47Speaker 3: be a pretty popular play here today. Castillo might be
- 2:50Speaker 3: pretty popular. So we'll have to see if we can
- 2:53Speaker 3: do a little make make ourselves a little different here
- 2:55Speaker 3: today in the slate. Looks like most of the masses
- 2:58Speaker 3: are going one way for the bats, right, Like everybody's
- 3:00Speaker 3: gonna have piece of that Corse game, I mean pretty much.
- 3:03Speaker 3: So if you're willing to fad it, you're gonna play
- 3:05Speaker 3: some high end pitching today. So interesting way to see
- 3:08Speaker 3: how we can attack it. So, yeah, let's see what
- 3:11Speaker 3: we can do.
- 3:12Speaker 1: Yeah, should be fun to break it down.
- 3:14Speaker 2: I'm gonna say hi to a couple of people here
- 3:16Speaker 2: in chat Michael w Sean Selly, Little Nackhart, Gangreen, Ricky Rose,
- 3:21Speaker 2: our guy, Marquis sports Babo's I got new EN's fellow
- 3:25Speaker 2: Wisconsin in here.
- 3:26Speaker 1: Hey go Jake Swales. Always appreciate everyone tuning in. Hit
- 3:29Speaker 1: that like button, hit that subscribe button.
- 3:31Speaker 2: Helps us out a town here and day two gee
- 3:34Speaker 2: rising here. I know you weren't on the show with
- 3:36Speaker 2: me yesterday, but Stone two point zero and I had
- 3:40Speaker 2: like I said yesterday, right, I had the team add
- 3:42Speaker 2: in some of the stats that you and I talk
- 3:44Speaker 2: about here on this show all the time, in terms
- 3:48Speaker 2: of their pitchers, in terms of the Sierra rankings, their
- 3:51Speaker 2: flyball percentage, their ground ball percentage, home run per nine,
- 3:55Speaker 2: and goes through really everything we have and has our
- 3:58Speaker 2: picture rankings right here. I'm gonna go ahead and we're
- 4:01Speaker 2: gonna use this to talk through as much of the
- 4:03Speaker 2: slate as we can here and really use it to
- 4:09Speaker 2: kind of show it off as one of the premium
- 4:11Speaker 2: tools over here. Obviously we have the slate station that
- 4:13Speaker 2: we typically showcase here, but I didn't want to bring
- 4:16Speaker 2: up the Stone two point zero. Nice part about this, too,
- 4:19Speaker 2: Ge Rosen, is you can just start clicking in guys
- 4:22Speaker 2: in here and just take a look and then run optimizer,
- 4:26Speaker 2: run optimized teams, hit the save, and then go to
- 4:29Speaker 2: your save lineups and upload it right to DraftKings like
- 4:31Speaker 2: a showcase yesterday. So let's start pitching. We'll go eight
- 4:35Speaker 2: K and above, and it's pretty gross top tier. But
- 4:39Speaker 2: in terms of down at a K, you got Zach
- 4:42Speaker 2: Thornton facing off against the UH. I gotta say it
- 4:45Speaker 2: the best record in baseball, but all the way from him,
- 4:50Speaker 2: all the way up to Chase Burns. Chase Burns eleven
- 4:52Speaker 2: to five after signing what the biggest contract in history
- 4:55Speaker 2: something like that, he got absolutely just straight paid from
- 5:00Speaker 2: the Reds for a good reason. Eleven five though, on
- 5:03Speaker 2: this slate, tire, when do you really want to prioritize
- 5:07Speaker 2: him over the Coors Field bats? Because you really can't
- 5:11Speaker 2: play the Nationals comfortably with an eleven to five pitcher
- 5:15Speaker 2: unless you kind of punt the sp two option. And
- 5:17Speaker 2: there is some cheaper guys on the slate, like a
- 5:18Speaker 2: David Peterson in that win game out there in Wrigley
- 5:21Speaker 2: twenty nine hour wins blown in, But really, break down
- 5:24Speaker 2: this top tier, how do you see it? Are you
- 5:26Speaker 2: getting up to Burns? Are you messing with Kevin Gosman
- 5:29Speaker 2: in a pretty tough matchup? Overall, Drew Rasmussen has a
- 5:32Speaker 2: least concern and now coming off after the extended break,
- 5:35Speaker 2: doesn't really seem super safe up there, even though he
- 5:38Speaker 2: is a solid pitcher, and it's just because the Rays
- 5:41Speaker 2: right the way Tampa handles their starting pitchers, it's not great.
- 5:45Speaker 2: And then Cala Bradish at nine K against one of
- 5:47Speaker 2: the hottest teams in baseball in the Red Sox feels
- 5:50Speaker 2: tough to play, and really that's kind of the summary
- 5:53Speaker 2: of this top tier. It feels gross and majority of
- 5:56Speaker 2: my teams probably don't even have one of these guys
- 5:58Speaker 2: outside of maybe a spen up to be contrarian Chase Burns,
- 6:01Speaker 2: who's probably gonna be super low owned on the slate
- 6:04Speaker 2: despite being the best overall starting pitcher.
- 6:06Speaker 3: Talk to me, yeah, I mean it's pretty tough here,
- 6:13Speaker 3: especially with the AK.
- 6:14Speaker 1: I mean, I'll start with Thornton.
- 6:16Speaker 3: I'm not interested in Thornton at all Urania either against
- 6:21Speaker 3: a Cardinal team. He just doesn't have enough case for me.
- 6:24Speaker 3: Just hasn't been very good here recent times. We get
- 6:27Speaker 3: the Bradish sitting at nine K from what I'm on,
- 6:31Speaker 3: I mean, we're gonna have to watch the weather in
- 6:32Speaker 3: that one for sure. I just have a hard time
- 6:35Speaker 3: with Bradish. I mean, he's been up and down. He's
- 6:37Speaker 3: he's had seven innings here, what almost seven innings with
- 6:43Speaker 3: four or three out of his last five starts. He's
- 6:45Speaker 3: had a pretty long leash. I think what just worries
- 6:48Speaker 3: me is his walk rates have been really high to
- 6:50Speaker 3: both sides of the plate. So that does concern me.
- 6:53Speaker 3: He's at eleven percent walk rate to the left side,
- 6:56Speaker 3: ten to the right side, strikeout right, read about average
- 7:01Speaker 3: twenty two percent to the left side, twenty four and
- 7:03Speaker 3: a half percent to the right side. Uh, you got
- 7:06Speaker 3: three bats, four bats, Maybe that you can attack over
- 7:09Speaker 3: here on the h on the red hot red sox.
- 7:13Speaker 3: Here seemed to be just mowing everybody down. I didn't
- 7:16Speaker 3: see they end up winning yesterday Nate's I didn't see
- 7:19Speaker 3: if they want I.
- 7:20Speaker 1: Didn't see if they won. Let me let me look.
- 7:22Speaker 3: I know they were tired late. I didn't see if
- 7:24Speaker 3: they came back and went I went to bed.
- 7:28Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, I'll have to look. But go ahead
- 7:32Speaker 1: and keep talking.
- 7:32Speaker 3: Well that'd be like fourteen in a row or some
- 7:34Speaker 3: bullshit like that. But like you said, with rass Mussen,
- 7:37Speaker 3: I can't go with rass Musen. I think he's got
- 7:40Speaker 3: some pitch con concerns. Thanks Warren says they won. But yeah,
- 7:45Speaker 3: so rass Musin, I'm a lot of concerned with him.
- 7:47Speaker 3: Ninety seven hundred. Now it leaves me the two guys
- 7:50Speaker 3: up at the top. I mean, you're gonna sit there
- 7:52Speaker 3: and look at Gossman Gossmin's been uh, I mean, he
- 7:56Speaker 3: just hasn't been the greatest. I mean he's he's been
- 7:59Speaker 3: walking quite a few guys in his last few starts.
- 8:02Speaker 3: He's been struggling a little bit against lefties, against seven
- 8:05Speaker 3: lefties from Tampa.
- 8:07Speaker 1: I would leave Gossman in my.
- 8:09Speaker 3: Pool because I do think pitching is a little bit
- 8:12Speaker 3: weak today. I would I don't really have too many
- 8:14Speaker 3: guys that I would really concern consider playing. Gossman is one.
- 8:18Speaker 3: I just don't like his price at ten K over
- 8:20Speaker 3: on FanDuel or over on dKu. Looking at Burns, now,
- 8:25Speaker 3: you like everything about Burns' matchup, right like, I mean,
- 8:28Speaker 3: we like the park, we like him being out there
- 8:30Speaker 3: in Seattle.
- 8:32Speaker 1: I mean he's got a twenty eight percent k ray.
- 8:35Speaker 1: We like that.
- 8:36Speaker 3: But you know, I mean you sit and you look
- 8:38Speaker 3: at his game log. I mean, I'm gonna pay eleven
- 8:40Speaker 3: K for a guy who hasn't, you know, seven points
- 8:43Speaker 3: seventeen point nine eighteen twenty two, twenty five seventeen. I mean,
- 8:47Speaker 3: he hasn't had consistent good back to back starts that
- 8:51Speaker 3: he's got over twenty some point twenty five points since
- 8:54Speaker 3: like the middle of Mayish I mean it's kind of
- 8:56Speaker 3: concerning for me. So Burns does have a good match.
- 9:00Speaker 3: I do like the park. Like I said, I leave
- 9:04Speaker 3: him in my pool. I do like him on FANDEL
- 9:06Speaker 3: it's a little easier to jam him him in over there,
- 9:09Speaker 3: but to pay up to get some of these bats
- 9:11Speaker 3: you're gonna want on DK, I think Burns would be
- 9:14Speaker 3: an easier fade for me today, even though I do
- 9:17Speaker 3: like him. But if you do want to fade that
- 9:18Speaker 3: corse Field game, I think Burns should be a click
- 9:21Speaker 3: that you should probably have in your lineup today, just
- 9:24Speaker 3: because he does have the highest strikeout capability here today.
- 9:26Speaker 1: So but yeah, I think it's interesting.
- 9:29Speaker 3: I mean, we got a couple guys that you know,
- 9:31Speaker 3: blow a k that I think are going to be
- 9:33Speaker 3: pretty popular, as I mentioned the top of the show
- 9:35Speaker 3: with Castillo and Valdez, I think are going to be
- 9:38Speaker 3: a pretty popular pairing on DK today.
- 9:41Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean I think it's interesting in the
- 9:44Speaker 1: fact for Burns.
- 9:45Speaker 3: I mean, if if Burns was gonna be really chalky,
- 9:47Speaker 3: I think, you know, it'd be an easy fade for me.
- 9:49Speaker 3: But just because he's not gonna get the ownership, he
- 9:52Speaker 3: does have the highest strikeout percentage up on the slate
- 9:54Speaker 3: here today, he does have a good part. So I'm
- 9:58Speaker 3: interested in in some Burns and then you're gonna have
- 10:01Speaker 3: to make some decisions how much of that course field
- 10:04Speaker 3: the game you're gonna want. But yeah, I mean we
- 10:06Speaker 3: only got what when you think about it, nas, we've
- 10:10Speaker 3: got twelve games. We only got six pitchers on DK
- 10:13Speaker 3: that are above eight K, and we only got four
- 10:16Speaker 3: above nine K. So you generally don't you generally don't
- 10:19Speaker 3: see that. At least it seems like we at least
- 10:21Speaker 3: have some kind of pitching options. And normally I always
- 10:23Speaker 3: say on a pitching slate, am I concerned about getting
- 10:26Speaker 3: bombed out by pitching?
- 10:28Speaker 1: That's not the case for me today. So I feel.
- 10:30Speaker 3: Comfortable playing lower tier type pitchers that maybe I'm looking
- 10:33Speaker 3: for outs or maybe I'm looking for, you know, in
- 10:36Speaker 3: a good matchup. So it is kind of easier to
- 10:39Speaker 3: fade Burns, you know, just on top of the surface.
- 10:41Speaker 1: But when you're looking at ownership percentages, for me, I
- 10:45Speaker 1: think Burns a pretty good play today.
- 10:48Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 10:48Speaker 2: So the thing that worries me with Burns is not
- 10:50Speaker 2: only his salary. Does he have the highest ceiling on
- 10:52Speaker 2: the slate. Absolutely, the strikeout prop is sitting at seven
- 10:57Speaker 2: and a half by far and away the best it is,
- 10:59Speaker 2: juice to the under. The thing that worries about me
- 11:01Speaker 2: is his outprop is sitting at fifteen and a half. Right,
- 11:06Speaker 2: that's a little that's a little worrisome to me. There
- 11:09Speaker 2: they're expecting six innings or not even six inning, five innings,
- 11:14Speaker 2: really five six innings somewhere in that ballpark. That's that's
- 11:19Speaker 2: a little worry some to me when you're paying eleven
- 11:22Speaker 2: to five on a slate like this. However, I do
- 11:24Speaker 2: think at ownership, I mean, he's gonna be fifteen percent owned,
- 11:28Speaker 2: I would think on this kind of slate with the
- 11:31Speaker 2: highest ceiling potential of really any of these guys. I mean,
- 11:34Speaker 2: maybe can argue a little bit, right, Kevin Gosman and
- 11:37Speaker 2: Drew Rasmusson if they let him go, can get there.
- 11:40Speaker 2: But both of those matchups aren't very good for strikeouts
- 11:43Speaker 2: overall in Toronto and Tampa Bay for opposing starting pitchers.
- 11:46Speaker 1: So you can say Chase Burns probably has the highest
- 11:49Speaker 1: ceiling on the slate.
- 11:50Speaker 2: Maybe you might argue a guy like Louis Castillo on
- 11:52Speaker 2: the other side of that game for much cheaper there
- 11:56Speaker 2: outside of him.
- 11:57Speaker 1: I really don't love this top tier.
- 11:59Speaker 2: I really don't really want to mess with Kevin Gosman
- 12:01Speaker 2: at ten k against the Tampa bay Rays, who really
- 12:03Speaker 2: don't strike out.
- 12:04Speaker 1: Gosman hasn't looked the best as of late. Yeah, if you.
- 12:08Speaker 2: Want to spend up to be contrarian, but he's gonna
- 12:11Speaker 2: be similar ownership to Chase Burns. I'd rather just play
- 12:13Speaker 2: Chase Burns if picking between the two. So for me
- 12:16Speaker 2: up top, it's really Chase Burns and really nobody else.
- 12:18Speaker 2: I mean maybe Walbert Urina at eighty six hundred. It's
- 12:24Speaker 2: kind of smoking mirrors with his metrics, right, He's kind
- 12:27Speaker 2: of getting away with some Babbitt stuff and things like that.
- 12:30Speaker 2: But I mean at eighty six hundred at no ownership,
- 12:34Speaker 2: I don't love picking on the Cardinals, but if you
- 12:36Speaker 2: really wanted to stomach another guy up here, I think that.
- 12:39Speaker 2: And then Drew Rasmussen ranked really good in our stuff.
- 12:43Speaker 2: I just I can't trust the Tampa pitching staff, especially
- 12:46Speaker 2: after the All Star break and the extended the time
- 12:49Speaker 2: off for Rasmussen. I just we saw it with Miz
- 12:52Speaker 2: yesterday getting pulled after sixty five pitches. I don't know,
- 12:56Speaker 2: all right, I haven't seen any polts. Like there was
- 12:58Speaker 2: some manager speak. Pat Murphy talked about Miz yesterday that
- 13:01Speaker 2: that we kind of glanced over at least on the show.
- 13:05Speaker 2: I don't know if there's anything coming out from Rasmussen
- 13:08Speaker 2: and Tampa there, but yeah, it's it's really just Chase
- 13:11Speaker 2: Burns for me up top. And like I said, majority
- 13:14Speaker 2: of my team's probably won't even have anyone above eight k.
- 13:17Speaker 2: You Arena would be the other guy that kind of
- 13:19Speaker 2: just closed your nose or close your eyes to just
- 13:22Speaker 2: take a shot on maybe and just hope that he
- 13:24Speaker 2: continues to get away with smoking merrors. But let's jump
- 13:28Speaker 2: down below eight k and talk about where majority of
- 13:30Speaker 2: the people are gonna go.
- 13:32Speaker 1: The high stone pitcher on the slate is gonna come
- 13:35Speaker 1: below eight k. He's gonna be seventy six hundred.
- 13:37Speaker 2: On the other side of that, Chase Burns Louis Castillo
- 13:41Speaker 2: really hard. We just saw what Brian Wu did yesterday
- 13:44Speaker 2: on the opposite side. Now, Castillo at his current state
- 13:47Speaker 2: isn't Brian Wu. But I mean Castillo's the safe, the
- 13:52Speaker 2: safety and the floor plus the matchup with strikeouts for
- 13:57Speaker 2: this Reds team. And the ballpark, it's kind of tough
- 13:59Speaker 2: to get away from him. But playing Castillo in the
- 14:02Speaker 2: heavy chalk at the current form of his career doesn't
- 14:05Speaker 2: feel like the best slate, especially if you want to
- 14:08Speaker 2: go and play that Coors Field game like I do.
- 14:11Speaker 2: From a bat's perspective, I was kind of all in
- 14:13Speaker 2: on the game yesterday. I'm going to be going right
- 14:15Speaker 2: back to it. Do I really want to pay Castilla
- 14:17Speaker 2: with everyone else?
- 14:19Speaker 1: Not sure. I Framber is a nice pivot right there.
- 14:21Speaker 2: I think at two hundred dollars more in that really
- 14:23Speaker 2: good win game for pitching in Wrigley, So I think
- 14:28Speaker 2: Framber's pretty interesting. Brandon Sproute, if you wanted to take
- 14:31Speaker 2: a shot on him, I think he's interesting.
- 14:34Speaker 1: He's got some upside there. And then really it's.
- 14:36Speaker 2: Just kind of punting down, kind of plugging your nose
- 14:39Speaker 2: and playing a guy like am I I think at
- 14:41Speaker 2: sixty eight hundred against the Fish, I think you could
- 14:45Speaker 2: mess with guys like Kumar Rocker and just bet on Hey,
- 14:48Speaker 2: maybe he finally figures it out. He's got a pedigree,
- 14:51Speaker 2: has it come to fruition more times than not, he's
- 14:54Speaker 2: bombed your lineup, and then David Peterson all the way
- 14:58Speaker 2: down at fifty five hundred in that team win game there.
- 15:01Speaker 2: So talk to me this lord tier where majority of
- 15:03Speaker 2: the people's teams are going to be anchored around two
- 15:06Speaker 2: of these guys down here in this range.
- 15:09Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll start with uh, I'll start with Castillo.
- 15:15Speaker 3: Actually, Castillo, as you said, I mean, I feel like
- 15:18Speaker 3: the opposite side as I do with Burns, like Castillo's
- 15:23Speaker 3: going to be pretty chalky, especially on DK in my opinion.
- 15:26Speaker 3: I mean, you're sitting there looking at a guy and
- 15:27Speaker 3: what's I mean just looking at his game log and
- 15:29Speaker 3: like seven starts, he hasn't had more than five k's.
- 15:31Speaker 3: He's got like a five point thirty ERA. At home,
- 15:34Speaker 3: he hasn't been very good. He hasn't been very good
- 15:36Speaker 3: against lefty so far this season. He's got a two
- 15:39Speaker 3: twenty seven IO. Ground Ball percentage is pretty low at
- 15:42Speaker 3: thirty four percent. Fly ball percentage is pretty high, almost
- 15:45Speaker 3: thirty five percent. He's getting buriled up twelve percent against lefties.
- 15:50Speaker 3: He's been pretty good against right He's now he's going
- 15:52Speaker 3: to see Blade. We obviously know Elie Cruz friedol Arroyo,
- 15:57Speaker 3: so he's going to see you know, he's not going
- 15:59Speaker 3: to see as many lefties. Is a lot of teams
- 16:01Speaker 3: could throw out there at him here today, But uh,
- 16:04Speaker 3: I mean, I still think that for me, I could
- 16:07Speaker 3: see as many reasons to pull Coles in it as
- 16:09Speaker 3: I could see some reasons that people like it. So
- 16:12Speaker 3: for me, I mean just knowing he's going to be
- 16:14Speaker 3: pretty popular playing like a tournament type game where I
- 16:16Speaker 3: feel like everybody's being steered to certain ways. Like to me,
- 16:20Speaker 3: I think I would kind of I would just fade
- 16:21Speaker 3: castile to be honest with you and and leave him
- 16:24Speaker 3: be like I do. Like Framber, I think Framber is
- 16:28Speaker 3: in a pretty good spot. Last time out, Framber was
- 16:30Speaker 3: really good. I mean, you know, I'll call him a
- 16:33Speaker 3: baby in a bitch again so that you know, maybe
- 16:36Speaker 3: he does come out and have a good game. But
- 16:37Speaker 3: last two out of four starts he's had nine k's.
- 16:40Speaker 3: He had two kids starts in there where he struggled,
- 16:43Speaker 3: but he had eight k's before that.
- 16:44Speaker 1: I mean, so, I mean he's looked pretty good.
- 16:46Speaker 3: I think, you know, against the Cubbies here, he's gonna
- 16:49Speaker 3: see pretty much a bunch of righty's. He does have
- 16:51Speaker 3: a fifteen percent h K rate, but we know he's
- 16:54Speaker 3: got a bunch of ground balls. I think Framber is
- 16:57Speaker 3: a guy that that, like you said, is a pretty
- 16:59Speaker 3: good pivot A.
- 17:00Speaker 1: Mi's my favorite pitcher on the slate.
- 17:02Speaker 3: I don't know if it's just because I'm biased Aids,
- 17:04Speaker 3: Like seems like every time we talk about this dude,
- 17:07Speaker 3: he comes out for us, Like he comes out and
- 17:09Speaker 3: shows out for us, and it seems like I'm gonna
- 17:11Speaker 3: put him in, you know, like the category, like you know,
- 17:14Speaker 3: like it's like a Steele if he's chalky.
- 17:16Speaker 1: I don't want to play a guy like his Steele
- 17:18Speaker 1: when he's chalky, like you know, like.
- 17:20Speaker 3: When a mas chalky, and you know, it's just like
- 17:22Speaker 3: I just feel like I'd just rather leave him alone,
- 17:24Speaker 3: you know, like I just not He's not being talked
- 17:27Speaker 3: about here today. He gets a Miami team that uh uh.
- 17:31Speaker 3: I mean he is a favorite minus one twenty five,
- 17:34Speaker 3: so we do like that. I mean, he's got stours
- 17:36Speaker 3: the top of that lineup, Grick Conines, got some case
- 17:39Speaker 3: Hernandez Mac. I mean they do have one, two, three,
- 17:44Speaker 3: four bats that are are low K bats. But I
- 17:46Speaker 3: mean I think I can get it done if he
- 17:48Speaker 3: can get the ball over the place. That's been his problem.
- 17:50Speaker 3: He's just been walking too many guys fourteen percent walk
- 17:53Speaker 3: right to the left side pretty much a fourteen percent
- 17:55Speaker 3: to the right side. So I think Ama is interesting
- 17:59Speaker 3: from a tournament perspective. I think he'd be a guy that, uh,
- 18:02Speaker 3: I'm definitely interested in. And then you know, if you
- 18:05Speaker 3: want to look at somebody like, uh, David Peterson against
- 18:09Speaker 3: the Tigers, I'd much rather see you know, a guy
- 18:12Speaker 3: like Peterson, uh going up against the Tigers from the
- 18:15Speaker 3: left side. I think that would be a play that
- 18:18Speaker 3: that I could I could stomach.
- 18:20Speaker 1: Uh, maybe you.
- 18:22Speaker 3: Know, it's just hard. I think Rocker is one of
- 18:24Speaker 3: the guys that you could play. But that'd be my
- 18:26Speaker 3: whiskey play of the day there. I don't know, man,
- 18:29Speaker 3: I think I actually prefer the White Sox, the lefties
- 18:32Speaker 3: of the White Sox against Rocker.
- 18:34Speaker 1: But I still think Rocker could could could get some
- 18:37Speaker 1: mouths today.
- 18:38Speaker 3: I don't love it, but uh, it's it's there. If
- 18:42Speaker 3: you wanted to go with Matthew Liberator against the Angels,
- 18:46Speaker 3: you could look that way. I mean, it's just hard
- 18:49Speaker 3: to play the Angels with a fly against the Angels
- 18:51Speaker 3: with with the flyball type pitcher.
- 18:53Speaker 1: Uh, Liberator.
- 18:55Speaker 3: I mean, like I said, it's we've got some thin
- 18:58Speaker 3: pickings down here.
- 18:59Speaker 1: But he does have a D and krate twenty six
- 19:01Speaker 1: percent against the left side.
- 19:02Speaker 3: He's going to pretty much see al right, he's anyway
- 19:04Speaker 3: where he's at a nineteen percent K raid. He's got
- 19:08Speaker 3: low ground ball rate, fly ball rate thirty percent. I man,
- 19:13Speaker 3: I don't I don't love Libertor, but I mean for
- 19:15Speaker 3: the price you're looking, if you want to get a
- 19:17Speaker 3: little bit different, I think he's in there. But for me, man,
- 19:20Speaker 3: I like a Mayan Valdez down here. Castillo, I'm not
- 19:23Speaker 3: so much of a fan of I'm willing to.
- 19:25Speaker 1: Fade Castillo today because I think if you see coursefield type,
- 19:29Speaker 1: heavy type lineups and ads, you're gonna see a lot
- 19:31Speaker 1: of Lewis Castillo on them teams. I can I can
- 19:33Speaker 1: almost virtually assure you.
- 19:36Speaker 2: Yeah, So the dry run spits out seventy five, seventy
- 19:40Speaker 2: six percent Louis Castillo with a bunch of Rockies in
- 19:44Speaker 2: Washington stacks like, that's every team pretty much in the opto.
- 19:48Speaker 2: So that tells you right now what everyone's gonna do
- 19:50Speaker 2: in terms of the pitching, in terms of the protections
- 19:53Speaker 2: and opto. It's Castillo and am I, then Peterson, then Rocker,
- 19:57Speaker 2: then Libertor. So that just shows you major the teams
- 20:00Speaker 2: are gonna be too of these spending down guys with
- 20:02Speaker 2: course field.
- 20:03Speaker 1: So maybe circling back, maybe.
- 20:05Speaker 2: You just spend up on some of these guys that
- 20:09Speaker 2: feel like they're overpriced, like a leg A burns like
- 20:12Speaker 2: a bradish, like a Gosman, something like that to flip
- 20:17Speaker 2: the build. But for me, it's definitely Valdez, my favorite
- 20:21Speaker 2: guy down here, and then probably Kumar, Rocker, Peterson, m I,
- 20:27Speaker 2: those kind of guys would be next. I am a
- 20:30Speaker 2: little worried on Castillo. I just think everybody's team is
- 20:32Speaker 2: gonna have Castillo on it. Now, you could say that's
- 20:35Speaker 2: kind of just a blocker piece, but at I mean
- 20:39Speaker 2: single entry stuff, sixty seventy percent of lineups are going
- 20:42Speaker 2: to have him. That gives you a pretty clear cut
- 20:45Speaker 2: to the top. Right if he goes out there and
- 20:47Speaker 2: get you, I don't know, fifteen points twelve to fifteen,
- 20:52Speaker 2: and one of these other guys matches them or out
- 20:54Speaker 2: produces them, well, now you just leap the jump. The
- 20:57Speaker 2: whole field in all your competition is a good play
- 21:00Speaker 2: on paper. The props back him up. He's got a
- 21:02Speaker 2: five and a half k prop juice to the over,
- 21:05Speaker 2: so I get the reason why everyone's there. It's just
- 21:08Speaker 2: I don't know. He feels a little scary to me.
- 21:11Speaker 2: I was all in pretty much on wu last night.
- 21:14Speaker 2: This is a much different spot to me personally. I
- 21:16Speaker 2: just think Wu' is a much better pitcher than Castillo
- 21:19Speaker 2: is at this current state. So yeah, I mean it's
- 21:23Speaker 2: pretty gross. I think Libertore is kind of interesting. Five
- 21:26Speaker 2: and a half k prop. It is just the under,
- 21:28Speaker 2: but still he's still got a five and a half
- 21:30Speaker 2: k prop there. The Angel has just been so bad
- 21:33Speaker 2: that lately. I know it's a much different matchup against
- 21:36Speaker 2: left handed pitching than it is right hand and pitching,
- 21:39Speaker 2: but I just I mean, they've just been terrible. Even
- 21:43Speaker 2: with Trout back in there, they still have tons of
- 21:46Speaker 2: strikeouts in that lineup. So if you wanted to mess
- 21:49Speaker 2: with him, I think he's interesting. But realistically, I think
- 21:54Speaker 2: Peterson and Peterson and bald As are kind of the
- 22:03Speaker 2: main guys that I'm looking and am I kind of
- 22:06Speaker 2: those three main guys that I'm looking down here and
- 22:09Speaker 2: feels really gross. I'm gonna kind of put my bats
- 22:12Speaker 2: in first, you Rizon, and then see what pitchers. If
- 22:14Speaker 2: I have the salary, I'll throw into Chase Burns. If
- 22:16Speaker 2: I don't, I'll play to these other guys down here.
- 22:18Speaker 2: Is kind of how I'm approaching it. I'm definitely going
- 22:20Speaker 2: bats first in terms of my team, and make sure
- 22:23Speaker 2: I have the stack that I want and then the
- 22:25Speaker 2: mini stack or the secondary guy pieces that I want,
- 22:28Speaker 2: and then figure out what pitching start or what kind of.
- 22:30Speaker 1: Pitching fits from there. Go ahead and give your summary.
- 22:33Speaker 2: I know it's pretty gross to give your top pitchers
- 22:37Speaker 2: on the slates, but we're all dealing with the same
- 22:38Speaker 2: deck of cards, and we know everyone's kind of holding
- 22:43Speaker 2: the They're not holding pocket aces here, they're holding Louis
- 22:46Speaker 2: Castillo in the chamber, so we know that at least
- 22:48Speaker 2: going in to talk to me, give your summary.
- 22:55Speaker 3: Yeah, Like I said, I mean, pitching's kind of gross.
- 22:58Speaker 3: I mean that's why when you after you and you
- 23:00Speaker 3: see that price on Burns, you're just like, I ain't
- 23:02Speaker 3: playing Burns at that price. But then you start looking
- 23:04Speaker 3: at it thinking, wait a minute, you know everybody's gonna
- 23:06Speaker 3: get kind of drawn to the same type play here,
- 23:09Speaker 3: So you know, I uh, I think I like Burns
- 23:14Speaker 3: a little bit more than most do. I mean I
- 23:17Speaker 3: haven't played with how much of that course field game
- 23:20Speaker 3: I can get. I really do like Valdez more than Castillo.
- 23:23Speaker 3: I think Castillo for me is kind of an easy fade,
- 23:26Speaker 3: but Amaya is one of my favorite pitchers. Amai and
- 23:28Speaker 3: Valdez would probably be my favorite pitching combination. But like
- 23:32Speaker 3: you said, you got a few other guys down here,
- 23:34Speaker 3: maybe be a little bit.
- 23:35Speaker 1: Uncomfortable, like Libatore.
- 23:37Speaker 3: But uh yeah, I think pitching overall is is.
- 23:42Speaker 1: It's just it's just.
- 23:44Speaker 3: Scary, right, Like there's nothing I really feel that's just
- 23:47Speaker 3: gonna just beat you. But uh yeah, I think, you know,
- 23:52Speaker 3: I just think here it's a tough slide here. I
- 23:54Speaker 3: think somebody here asked about Drake Cole here for Cold
- 23:59Speaker 3: Drake or for the d Backs.
- 24:01Speaker 1: I mean, this kid's coming up here.
- 24:04Speaker 3: I mean he's basically calling up as an emerged agency
- 24:08Speaker 3: the dudes had.
- 24:09Speaker 1: He starts, He's got like a seven E R.
- 24:12Speaker 3: I'm not really interested in a kid, you know, who's
- 24:15Speaker 3: coming up in a spots start with with an era
- 24:18Speaker 3: like that down you know, down below, I do know
- 24:20Speaker 3: the West side, you know of that the Pacific League,
- 24:23Speaker 3: I think it's called. You know, that's like where that
- 24:25Speaker 3: Sacramento Mental Stadium and all that minor league stadiums are.
- 24:29Speaker 3: You know, the run totals are generally a run or
- 24:31Speaker 3: too higher than everywhere else. So I a lot of
- 24:34Speaker 3: times don't weigh too much into that, just knowing you know,
- 24:37Speaker 3: out there in the elevation out there Sacramento and and
- 24:39Speaker 3: out there in the in the mountains. So but yeah,
- 24:42Speaker 3: I I'm not really a fan of that. I don't
- 24:46Speaker 3: there's a lot unknowns there. Not really too interested in
- 24:50Speaker 3: playing playing the rookie on a spot start, So uh,
- 24:53Speaker 3: not going there, you know anything about that?
- 24:55Speaker 1: Kid? Nate's no. I mean the PCL, everyone's numbers are
- 25:00Speaker 1: are inflated just because the parks are playing in the weather,
- 25:02Speaker 1: the temperatures, the stadium, just everything right kind of goes
- 25:07Speaker 1: against them there. And the offenses are pretty solid overall
- 25:11Speaker 1: in that league anyways.
- 25:12Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm still not going there, to be honest,
- 25:16Speaker 2: I'd rather take a shot on just spending all the
- 25:19Speaker 2: way down at fifty five hundred hours David Peterson personally myself,
- 25:22Speaker 2: then mess with a guy like col Drake at sixty
- 25:25Speaker 2: three hundred there. I just I don't love it overall,
- 25:29Speaker 2: so I'll go ahead and give my summary. I'll put
- 25:32Speaker 2: Burns number one just because I think he has the
- 25:34Speaker 2: highest ceiling on the slate, even if he only goes
- 25:37Speaker 2: five innings or maybe they push him six. There's no
- 25:41Speaker 2: really solidified kind of report, but based on what Vegas
- 25:47Speaker 2: has a fifteen and a half out prop on him,
- 25:49Speaker 2: I'm expecting six innings kind of maximum here four Burns,
- 25:53Speaker 2: but I still think he has the capability to go
- 25:57Speaker 2: out there and put seven, eight, nine striker. It's up
- 26:00Speaker 2: regardless of how long he's gonna go, So I will
- 26:03Speaker 2: put him number one. Veldez is gonna be number two
- 26:05Speaker 2: for me in my rocker, and then David Peterson is
- 26:09Speaker 2: kind of how I'm raking it. Libertore would kind of
- 26:12Speaker 2: be the next guy in line, and then it gets
- 26:15Speaker 2: really really gross after that, and a lot of those
- 26:17Speaker 2: guys are gross anyways, and on a different slate, I
- 26:19Speaker 2: probably won't play any of them. But that's just the
- 26:22Speaker 2: deck that we're dealing with here. But jump over and
- 26:26Speaker 2: talk hitting here. I'm gonna pull our other tab up here,
- 26:31Speaker 2: the regular stone that shows the lineups overall.
- 26:36Speaker 1: First game on.
- 26:37Speaker 2: The main slate, remember that Yankees game is postponed. There
- 26:40Speaker 2: is other weather to worry about as well. So the
- 26:43Speaker 2: other main weather game on the main slate now since
- 26:47Speaker 2: that first game got postponed, is gonna be the Fenway Park,
- 26:50Speaker 2: the Fenway Baltimore Boston game, So when we get there,
- 26:53Speaker 2: we can definitely talk about that. But it looks pretty
- 26:56Speaker 2: pretty meek or pretty pretty bleak for the outlook there.
- 27:01Speaker 2: Obviously you're gonna have to pay attention leading up to
- 27:03Speaker 2: lock there, but doesn't look great as it stands right now.
- 27:06Speaker 2: But this first game on the dock at Ray's Blue Jays,
- 27:08Speaker 2: Gosman Drew Rasmussen two good real life pitchers.
- 27:11Speaker 1: They both rank really good for us. We just have.
- 27:15Speaker 2: Issues with their price points and the strikeout matchup for
- 27:18Speaker 2: both these guys. But again, after looking at the at
- 27:21Speaker 2: the pitching slate in general, I wouldn't be shocked to
- 27:24Speaker 2: see two spend up arms kind of be the be
- 27:27Speaker 2: what you need if even if course field is like
- 27:31Speaker 2: nine to eight or something like that, maybe these pitchers
- 27:34Speaker 2: are the way to do it. So for me, no
- 27:36Speaker 2: really offensive in these spots, but talk to me any
- 27:39Speaker 2: any offense in this game.
- 27:41Speaker 1: Yeah, you got two good pitchers, we got twelve games slate.
- 27:44Speaker 3: There's all kinds of offense here, it just ain't it
- 27:47Speaker 3: in this game, so I will pass. I don't even
- 27:49Speaker 3: get enough leverage to play one of the bats against
- 27:52Speaker 3: the two pitchers, So for me, it's a pretty easy
- 27:54Speaker 3: scrap game.
- 27:56Speaker 1: I agree there.
- 27:58Speaker 2: Next game, Red Sox and the oriole Like I said,
- 28:00Speaker 2: this is the weather spot to worry about for the
- 28:03Speaker 2: main slate.
- 28:04Speaker 1: Roth has it right now is orange yellow.
- 28:07Speaker 2: Doesn't look promising, so definitely pay attention leading up to lock.
- 28:13Speaker 2: But Red Sox, I think what thirteen in a row
- 28:16Speaker 2: now something like that. Kyle Bradish pretty solid real life pitchers.
- 28:20Speaker 2: He's looked pretty decent.
- 28:21Speaker 1: Overall.
- 28:23Speaker 2: I don't love this game, especially when you add in
- 28:25Speaker 2: the weather concerns. You are going to get it super
- 28:27Speaker 2: low owned because everybody sees that. I just on a
- 28:30Speaker 2: still it's still a thirteen game slate or twelve games slate.
- 28:32Speaker 2: I just I don't really want to take an approach
- 28:36Speaker 2: that I'm at risk for PPD and have zeros across
- 28:39Speaker 2: my lineup. So this is another game I don't love
- 28:42Speaker 2: from offense really on either side if you wanted to
- 28:44Speaker 2: ride the hot hand in the Red Sox. But it's
- 28:46Speaker 2: not like they're they're ripping the cover off the baseball
- 28:48Speaker 2: at you rising. They're scoring like five six runs and
- 28:50Speaker 2: just winning it that way with their bullpen and their pitching.
- 28:54Speaker 2: So talk to me here, any any offense for you.
- 28:57Speaker 3: No, this one's another one that we can pass. As
- 29:00Speaker 3: you mentioned, the weather alone is enough for me. I mean,
- 29:04Speaker 3: it's got a seven to ten start, so it's not
- 29:06Speaker 3: like we got a later start where we can make
- 29:08Speaker 3: some adjustments. It's coming right out the gates. So for me,
- 29:12Speaker 3: I'll just pass. If you do choose to play it
- 29:14Speaker 3: as we say, make sure you watch that MLB app
- 29:16Speaker 3: because it'll tell you if they're warming up on the field.
- 29:18Speaker 3: At least you know the players are out in the field.
- 29:20Speaker 3: But yeah, for me, I'll pass.
- 29:23Speaker 1: Yeah, I will pass as well.
- 29:25Speaker 2: Takes us to the next game here, Braves and the Padres.
- 29:29Speaker 2: I definitely have some interest in this Braves team here tonight.
- 29:33Speaker 2: Padres bopen is always pretty scary overall, but the back
- 29:36Speaker 2: end guys are really the good guys. So if this
- 29:38Speaker 2: game isn't really that close, you're not gonna see really
- 29:43Speaker 2: the most times, You're not gonna see the Mason.
- 29:45Speaker 1: Millers of the world here.
- 29:47Speaker 2: Walker Bieeler returned, I mean his last start before the
- 29:49Speaker 2: All Star Game, what he gave up six home runs
- 29:51Speaker 2: something like that. I mean he returned back to the
- 29:54Speaker 2: guy that we've been picking on and have continued to
- 29:56Speaker 2: talk about picking on on every one.
- 29:58Speaker 1: Of these shows.
- 29:59Speaker 2: It finally came to fruition from him kind of getting
- 30:02Speaker 2: by with smoking Mears.
- 30:03Speaker 1: I think the Braves are super interesting here.
- 30:06Speaker 2: They're gonna kind of fly under the raidar, especially at
- 30:08Speaker 2: some of these salaries overall, because you got the course
- 30:12Speaker 2: field game. I mean, this Brave's team over the last
- 30:15Speaker 2: thirty days against right handed pitching is very, very good.
- 30:17Speaker 2: They don't strike out, They hit for a ton of power.
- 30:19Speaker 2: Drake Baldwin looks really good. Matt Olsen, Yastremsky's a cheap
- 30:22Speaker 2: guy in there. You got some other cheap guys. Alby's
- 30:26Speaker 2: coming off a home run again last night. Michael Harris,
- 30:29Speaker 2: I like his Brave stack quite a bit here. Talk
- 30:31Speaker 2: to me in this one. Yeah, Braids are definitely interesting.
- 30:36Speaker 2: Bueller was bad, real bad before.
- 30:38Speaker 3: The I think what three starts to give up twenty
- 30:41Speaker 3: runs so not good. Six homers too, quite a bit
- 30:45Speaker 3: of long ball. He was looking at his numbers. He
- 30:47Speaker 3: is better against lefties, but man, the brains got the
- 30:50Speaker 3: lefties that I'm not generally concerned. Olsen, Baldwin and Harris
- 30:55Speaker 3: are all rightfully so pretty good, but I mean he's
- 30:57Speaker 3: been giving up quite a bit of power to righties.
- 31:00Speaker 3: So maybe you know Dubon Riley, who you know does struggle,
- 31:05Speaker 3: has struggled so far.
- 31:06Speaker 1: But I mean he's he's been burrowing up righties too.
- 31:09Speaker 1: He's got eleven percent barrol rates.
- 31:10Speaker 3: So I think even Austin Riley is in play today,
- 31:13Speaker 3: who actually has the lowest WOLBA on the team against righties.
- 31:15Speaker 3: But Olsen's at three eighty eight, Baldwin three seventy. The
- 31:21Speaker 3: the the wOBA that Bueller's giving up is three thirty
- 31:26Speaker 3: five ground ball rate mid ground ball lean, So I
- 31:29Speaker 3: think Buehler is definitely lying to get beat up. As
- 31:31Speaker 3: you mentioned that Padre Bullpen's pretty good, So it does
- 31:35Speaker 3: concern me a little bit. They're gonna have to get
- 31:36Speaker 3: the job done and get it done early against against
- 31:40Speaker 3: the Padres. But yeah, I mean we're sitting at a
- 31:43Speaker 3: game total of nine as far as any Podres bets,
- 31:47Speaker 3: I just I can't do it. They have been a
- 31:49Speaker 3: little bit better here in recent times, but I don't
- 31:53Speaker 3: have the Padres ranked up there high enough.
- 31:54Speaker 1: But for me, Braves I think are pretty interesting.
- 31:58Speaker 3: I mean, if you're look looking for, you know, other
- 32:01Speaker 3: teams that maybe that you could use in, you know,
- 32:05Speaker 3: if you want to fade that Corse game, that the
- 32:07Speaker 3: Nets and the Rockies. You know, I'd put the Braves
- 32:10Speaker 3: in the top three that all for the teams that
- 32:14Speaker 3: that I'd be looking at outside of courts Field. So
- 32:16Speaker 3: I'd put the Braves in my top five, but you know,
- 32:19Speaker 3: top three outside of course.
- 32:22Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they're pretty interesting overall.
- 32:25Speaker 2: I did want to call it a couple of guys
- 32:27Speaker 2: just on the Padre side, Ty France. I'm seeing way
- 32:30Speaker 2: too much Ty France Slaber in the in the chat
- 32:32Speaker 2: right now. He is good, or he has been good.
- 32:35Speaker 2: I don't think he's good, but he has been good
- 32:38Speaker 2: and he's still thirty two hundred. It's just the opportunity
- 32:40Speaker 2: cost at first base is pretty tough. When you got
- 32:44Speaker 2: I mean you got thet the course field game where
- 32:46Speaker 2: you have some good first basements in there.
- 32:48Speaker 1: You just have really good first basement.
- 32:50Speaker 2: I mean, you got two of them that I want
- 32:52Speaker 2: to play in the next game that we're going to
- 32:54Speaker 2: talk about in Kansas City. So the opportunity cost is there,
- 32:58Speaker 2: but he is still thirty two hundred, so if you
- 32:59Speaker 2: fall on him, I think he's fine. Gavin Sheets is cheap,
- 33:02Speaker 2: Jackson Merrill lefties is really what Lopez is more susceptible to.
- 33:07Speaker 1: He really just doesn't.
- 33:08Speaker 2: Give up any power or or or that many fly
- 33:11Speaker 2: balls to the right side. So France, I mean, you're
- 33:14Speaker 2: kind of got kind of kind of gonna have to
- 33:17Speaker 2: get there by like just bab at doubles singles that
- 33:21Speaker 2: kind of stuff, and that doesn't really score too well
- 33:23Speaker 2: from a DFS perspective. Cronin Worth is a cheap lefty
- 33:28Speaker 2: in there in a good lineup spot, and that's, like
- 33:30Speaker 2: I said, really what you want to target Lopez with.
- 33:32Speaker 2: So it'd be the lefties. The cheap guys. Croninworth, Merrill,
- 33:36Speaker 2: Gavin Sheets are kind of the main guys if if
- 33:38Speaker 2: you want to look at their full nighting at bats.
- 33:39Speaker 2: But the Braise Bullpen's also really good, and the Padres
- 33:43Speaker 2: is not a great offense in general, So definitely more
- 33:46Speaker 2: interest on the Brave side, and I think that mini
- 33:48Speaker 2: stack of Baldwin Albi's Olsen right at the top, even
- 33:51Speaker 2: throwing Harris there, I think it's really interesting. I don't
- 33:54Speaker 2: love Austin Riley, but he's hitting fourth in that stack
- 33:59Speaker 2: at a chief price point, so I get the reasoning there.
- 34:02Speaker 2: Next spot here mets Brewers. Brandon Sproune in the mound.
- 34:05Speaker 2: He can be susceptible if he doesn't have his command,
- 34:09Speaker 2: but he's still a decent pitcher. I think overall Zach
- 34:13Speaker 2: Thornton don't really know what's up with him, but he
- 34:17Speaker 2: is a lefty against the Brewers where they typically struggle.
- 34:21Speaker 2: Vaughn is locked in right now, you're gonna get Laura
- 34:24Speaker 2: in there. Cooper Pratt's Ben red Hot to Jackson Chario.
- 34:27Speaker 2: I think the Brewers makes some sense on the slate.
- 34:29Speaker 2: I kind of put him in that same category as
- 34:31Speaker 2: kind of the Braves. As you're fading coors Field, I'm
- 34:33Speaker 2: going to an upside stack like that.
- 34:37Speaker 1: But this is a game I don't love overall.
- 34:39Speaker 2: From offense, I think you could play either side In
- 34:42Speaker 2: larger field stuff, I'll definitely have my standard overweight approach
- 34:46Speaker 2: in my MM set on some of the Brewers stacks,
- 34:49Speaker 2: and if I'm playing the Brewers, it's a five stack
- 34:51Speaker 2: or nothing. That's just how I play them because they
- 34:53Speaker 2: don't hit a lot of home runs, so it's either
- 34:55Speaker 2: all in or really nothing. So I kind of make
- 34:58Speaker 2: a rule in sabers him if I'm playing any it's
- 35:00Speaker 2: really a five man stack or nothing.
- 35:02Speaker 1: It is how I set it up. But talk to
- 35:04Speaker 1: me here Milwaukee and the Mets.
- 35:08Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you got Thornton, as you mentioned a lefty.
- 35:10Speaker 3: I mean I'm already on defense mode. Would be with
- 35:13Speaker 3: the Brewers against the lefty, you know, just kind of
- 35:16Speaker 3: looking though he does have a high he's got a
- 35:18Speaker 3: pretty high five balling. I mean he's at thirty six
- 35:21Speaker 3: percent to the right side, forty two to the left side,
- 35:24Speaker 3: mid ground I mean mid ground balling to the to
- 35:27Speaker 3: the left side. But I mean you did mention Laura.
- 35:30Speaker 3: I think Laura is interesting. The dude's been hitting the
- 35:32Speaker 3: shit out of the ball Vaughn two. I don't overly
- 35:36Speaker 3: love it, but uh, I mean i'd leave him in
- 35:38Speaker 3: my pool. If I had a deeper I think they'd
- 35:40Speaker 3: be more of like a mini stack where I could
- 35:42Speaker 3: maybe play Vaughn Sanchez and Laura maybe kind of go
- 35:47Speaker 3: four five, you know, four five seven maybe in the
- 35:50Speaker 3: lineup if you're looking. I mean, that should be fairly cheap.
- 35:55Speaker 3: That does have some power upside against the fly ball pitcher.
- 35:58Speaker 3: So I think that's where i'd be at. I see
- 36:00Speaker 3: what you're saying. If you were just gonna full stack it,
- 36:02Speaker 3: there is a little bit of pinch hit risk there.
- 36:05Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean normally we like the Brewers against
- 36:09Speaker 3: you know, flyball pitcher. Anytime I see a ground ball
- 36:11Speaker 3: pitcher against the Brewers, it's just something that I generally
- 36:14Speaker 3: don't like to explore, especially on a bigger slate like
- 36:17Speaker 3: this with twelve games. That does scare me. But I mean, yeah,
- 36:21Speaker 3: best team in baseball, the best record. I mean, you
- 36:24Speaker 3: got a fly ball pitcher not gonna be owned. So
- 36:27Speaker 3: I don't mind it. I just I don't overly love it.
- 36:29Speaker 3: As far as any Mets go. I'm not interested in
- 36:33Speaker 3: playing any Mets at this point against sprote but yeah,
- 36:37Speaker 3: I'll just pass.
- 36:38Speaker 1: I think there's other spots that.
- 36:40Speaker 2: Will like Yeah, So I mean, here's your flyball guys
- 36:44Speaker 2: for the Brewers against left handed pitching at home on
- 36:49Speaker 2: the season, so Cherio Contreras, Vaughan Ortiz, I did. I
- 36:54Speaker 2: just want to pull this up and just show you
- 36:55Speaker 2: how easy it is. The stone two point. All I
- 36:58Speaker 2: did was typeing Brewers here, hit height, or let's do
- 37:05Speaker 2: show hitter stats here, so you can see right fly
- 37:08Speaker 2: ball right right here. You can sort it ground ball rate,
- 37:10Speaker 2: so Yelich obviously he always hits the ball on the ground. Mitchell,
- 37:13Speaker 2: same thing, Lefty, lefty, So that that shows you right there.
- 37:17Speaker 2: But I do think the back half of the Brewers lineup,
- 37:19Speaker 2: if I'm stacking it, I think is interesting just because
- 37:22Speaker 2: they're super cheap. Even a mini stack, I would I
- 37:25Speaker 2: probably would to throw out with the Sanchez de Laros,
- 37:27Speaker 2: the Pratts, the Ortiz, the world. Ortiz at a bomb
- 37:30Speaker 2: last night. He's twenty seven at third base and shortstop.
- 37:34Speaker 1: Shortstops pretty weak position if you're not paying all the
- 37:36Speaker 1: way up to the top with guys like C. J. Abrams,
- 37:38Speaker 1: Bobby Witt.
- 37:40Speaker 2: So I think that's an interesting just a little little
- 37:43Speaker 2: pull pull catcher pull pull spots off here, I think
- 37:47Speaker 2: too it maybe you do that in like a gnat stack, right.
- 37:50Speaker 2: It feels gross leaving off Abrams, but everybody's gonna have
- 37:53Speaker 2: Abrams in their woods there in their gnat stack. Maybe
- 37:56Speaker 2: you throwing a joy or teas in Gary Sanchez or
- 37:59Speaker 2: a Cooper Pratt and Gary Santez and leave Abrams off,
- 38:03Speaker 2: and then you have a different nat stack there and
- 38:06Speaker 2: it allows you maybe to get up to another spend
- 38:09Speaker 2: up picture instead of eating the castile chalk something like that.
- 38:12Speaker 2: I think it's kind of interesting, but yeah, I don't
- 38:15Speaker 2: love it compared to some of the other spots on
- 38:17Speaker 2: the slate. Next game here Kaufman Stadium, Tyler Maley a
- 38:23Speaker 2: villa on the mound.
- 38:24Speaker 1: I love the giants here tonight. I played him last night.
- 38:26Speaker 2: They didn't really get the job done, but I still
- 38:29Speaker 2: had a solid night overall. They did enough because they
- 38:32Speaker 2: nailed the home runs from Ramouse and a Damas and
- 38:35Speaker 2: some of the other guys in there. I'm going back
- 38:38Speaker 2: to the well here. I just I like attacking on
- 38:41Speaker 2: a slate like this. I like attacking bad bullpens, and
- 38:43Speaker 2: Kansas City's bullpen is absolutely atrocious. There is some wind
- 38:46Speaker 2: blown in, but it's still gonna be ninety some degrees
- 38:49Speaker 2: in Kaufman Stadium. Bad bullpen a guy who I'm just
- 38:52Speaker 2: not a believer in a villa. I don't think he's
- 38:54Speaker 2: a very good pitcher. And then the Royals, I don't
- 38:57Speaker 2: think is the worst play either. On the other side
- 38:59Speaker 2: of that game, both teams have terrible bullpens. In this
- 39:01Speaker 2: game here solid enough hitting environment overall in retrospect to
- 39:07Speaker 2: the other spots on the slate. It's outside of Corurise Field.
- 39:09Speaker 2: There's really not great spots across the board for hitting.
- 39:13Speaker 2: I like this game here a decent amount more lean
- 39:16Speaker 2: on the Giants for me personally, But how do you
- 39:18Speaker 2: see this one?
- 39:20Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 39:21Speaker 3: I like both sides actually, so Avilia is just horrible
- 39:25Speaker 3: to the right side with his control of the dude.
- 39:28Speaker 3: In ninety four played appearances so far, It's not like
- 39:30Speaker 3: it's a small, really small sample. I mean ninety four
- 39:33Speaker 3: you just generally don't see a twenty percent walk rate
- 39:36Speaker 3: like that's just that's just terrible. But I mean when
- 39:40Speaker 3: you look over at the walk rates so Casey Schmidt,
- 39:42Speaker 3: I mean the dude barely walks. He's a righty two
- 39:44Speaker 3: point eight percent, and then you're looking at Ramos four
- 39:46Speaker 3: point six percent, William domis six percent. So the three
- 39:50Speaker 3: righty's he's gonna see they don't walk either, so uh
- 39:54Speaker 3: that that's kind of takes that away from him. But yeah,
- 39:58Speaker 3: as you mentioned that Kansas City bull Pennis is absolutely terrible.
- 40:02Speaker 3: I do like I do like Devers. I think they
- 40:06Speaker 3: got some power in that lineup that could be had.
- 40:08Speaker 3: As far as Kansas City goes against Malay, I think
- 40:12Speaker 3: I think that's interesting too. It's something that we might
- 40:15Speaker 3: want to look at. I mean, Malay kind of reverse
- 40:18Speaker 3: Splitzy has had a lot of contact to the right side.
- 40:22Speaker 3: So I'm not sure if we're gonna get Bobby Witten
- 40:25Speaker 3: there today.
- 40:26Speaker 4: That might.
- 40:27Speaker 1: Might damper a few things for the Royals.
- 40:29Speaker 3: I don't think we're gonna get Bobby Witz Bobby, Yeah,
- 40:34Speaker 3: but like Kaglione, I think would be interesting. Top of
- 40:38Speaker 3: that lineup is fairly cheap, so I think I like
- 40:41Speaker 3: the Giants more than I like the.
- 40:43Speaker 1: Royals against Malay.
- 40:44Speaker 3: But Malay is just like I said, reverse Splitzy gets
- 40:47Speaker 3: burled up by writis at ten. So I wouldn't be
- 40:51Speaker 3: afraid to put some writings in your stacks. I don't
- 40:54Speaker 3: I have a few teams higher. I wouldn't have these
- 40:56Speaker 3: guys in my top five. Maybe the Giants would maybe
- 40:59Speaker 3: be like five, you know, outside like with the Brays.
- 41:02Speaker 3: I do like the Braise a little bit more than
- 41:04Speaker 3: the Giants, but yeah, I think they're in play. They're
- 41:08Speaker 3: in the bucket for teams that I think could compete
- 41:11Speaker 3: with the course Field game, just because that Royals bullpens
- 41:14Speaker 3: has been so bad.
- 41:16Speaker 2: Yeah, the Royals bullpen's bad. Both of these pitchers rank
- 41:19Speaker 2: really bad in our pitcher rankings. The hitters are all
- 41:22Speaker 2: gonna be low owned for the most part, so it
- 41:24Speaker 2: just sets up to be a pretty good game environ,
- 41:26Speaker 2: a pretty good stack. And the nice thing I like
- 41:28Speaker 2: about this is you can play spend up pitching with
- 41:32Speaker 2: this game and totally flip the bill on its head
- 41:35Speaker 2: on what everyone else is gonna do. Everyone else is
- 41:37Speaker 2: gonna go to course Field. They're gonna plug in Louis
- 41:40Speaker 2: Castillo and figure out what sp two fits, whether it's
- 41:42Speaker 2: am I, Libertorre Rocker, any of.
- 41:45Speaker 1: These cheaper guys down here.
- 41:47Speaker 2: If you go ahead and you throw in the Chase
- 41:49Speaker 2: Burns and like fram or Valdez, and your cheapest picture
- 41:52Speaker 2: is more expensive than the guys that people are starting
- 41:55Speaker 2: their team with. In Louis Castillo at seventy six hundred,
- 41:59Speaker 2: I think that's an interesting way to build. And you
- 42:01Speaker 2: got a five implied run total here for the Giants,
- 42:04Speaker 2: almost a five implied run total from the Royals. You
- 42:06Speaker 2: got nine innings of pretty bad pitching overall, Royals bullpens,
- 42:10Speaker 2: pretty tacks as well, low ownership on the stacks.
- 42:13Speaker 1: It just everything makes sense to me with my tournament mind.
- 42:16Speaker 1: So I will I will definitely be overweight on both sides.
- 42:21Speaker 2: But I really like the Giants quite a bit because
- 42:23Speaker 2: it gets you a different roster construction than what everyone
- 42:26Speaker 2: else is gonna do. Obviously, I like Coors Field just
- 42:28Speaker 2: like everyone else, but I'm looking for different areas to attack,
- 42:31Speaker 2: to get a little bit different as well. Next spot here,
- 42:35Speaker 2: White Sox and the Rangers talked about Kumar Rocker in
- 42:39Speaker 2: terms of pitching, just because of how bad the pitching
- 42:41Speaker 2: slate is overall. But man, this White Sox team has
- 42:46Speaker 2: murdered right handed pitching all year and now they got
- 42:47Speaker 2: show heavy back in there, Murrakami.
- 42:51Speaker 1: Back in there, which helps a ton.
- 42:53Speaker 2: Yeah, he strikes out a lot, but he also can
- 42:55Speaker 2: hit two three home runs at any given moment. I
- 42:58Speaker 2: love the lefties here. If you're going to them. Rocker
- 43:01Speaker 2: gives up a ton of power to the left side.
- 43:04Speaker 2: Tristan Peters, Murakami, Antonasi, Ben Attendi, Colson Montgomery, the other
- 43:10Speaker 2: Montgomery in there, Bryden, I think the White Sox are super,
- 43:15Speaker 2: super sneaky here on the slates, I'm seeing like sub
- 43:18Speaker 2: ten percent ownership for a five man stack. This might
- 43:21Speaker 2: be one of my favorite stacks overall on the slates.
- 43:25Speaker 2: Talk to me here, how do you see this in
- 43:27Speaker 2: this one? I know the park sucks, but this park
- 43:31Speaker 2: had some runs overall.
- 43:34Speaker 1: How do you see this one?
- 43:36Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I know we used we talked a
- 43:37Speaker 3: little bit about Kumar on the pitching side, but as
- 43:41Speaker 3: I mentioned then, I think I'd rather have the lefties
- 43:44Speaker 3: of the White Sox. So I mean you got Murrakami,
- 43:47Speaker 3: as you said coming back Montgomery, Ben Attendee, I mean
- 43:51Speaker 3: you don't even have to put Vargas in your stack,
- 43:53Speaker 3: which is a pretty high expensive bat, and I still
- 43:55Speaker 3: think it has a ton of upside. So for me,
- 43:58Speaker 3: I think the White Sox are definitely in play. I
- 44:00Speaker 3: think I got him right on par with the Braves
- 44:02Speaker 3: as a team that maybe leaving a little bit ahead
- 44:05Speaker 3: of the Braves actually, So yeah, I mean Murakami's hitting.
- 44:09Speaker 3: I got a four to fourteen wOBA against right handed pitching,
- 44:12Speaker 3: so I mean they've just been crushing. I think they
- 44:18Speaker 3: could easily get the job done here today. One of
- 44:20Speaker 3: the best teams against lefty, So give me all the
- 44:22Speaker 3: white socks I can get. I'm not really interested in
- 44:25Speaker 3: any of the Rangers against Schultz, so I'll just I'll
- 44:30Speaker 3: pass there. If you were interested in any of the Rangers.
- 44:33Speaker 3: Josh Jones got a four to zero four wOBA Foscou
- 44:37Speaker 3: at the top of that lineup's been pretty good against
- 44:40Speaker 3: lefties too, so maybe a couple of one off bets
- 44:43Speaker 3: you wanted there, But yeah, I really do like some
- 44:45Speaker 3: white sox here tonight.
- 44:47Speaker 2: Yeah, So Rocker gives up a ton of barrels to
- 44:49Speaker 2: the left side, So Marikami right here with this twenty
- 44:51Speaker 2: percent barrel rate, Montgomery been Attende, Drew Romo is a catcher,
- 44:56Speaker 2: switch hitting guy. This is pretty tough sledding here, I
- 44:59Speaker 2: think for for Rocker facing facing seven lefties, where he yeah,
- 45:05Speaker 2: he has a better k rate there, but he also
- 45:08Speaker 2: gives up a ship ton of power. And I mean
- 45:10Speaker 2: Rocker can just rock himself right right out of any
- 45:13Speaker 2: game right because of his command and he just hasn't.
- 45:16Speaker 2: It hasn't come to his pedigree hasn't come.
- 45:19Speaker 1: To fruition yet.
- 45:20Speaker 2: There's been flashes of upside there, but there's been way
- 45:22Speaker 2: more downside than there has been upside. And White Socks
- 45:25Speaker 2: gonna be on Oland. They've mashed right handed pitching all year.
- 45:29Speaker 2: It all shakes out to me to be a pretty
- 45:32Speaker 2: pretty solid spot overall.
- 45:34Speaker 1: Here.
- 45:34Speaker 2: You're talking about a top ten team in ops over
- 45:37Speaker 2: the last month, top six in ops against right handed pitching,
- 45:41Speaker 2: and you get a pretty bad righty overall in Kumar Rocker.
- 45:45Speaker 2: So I love me some lefties from the White Sox.
- 45:47Speaker 2: And then don't forget about don't forget about Vargas either.
- 45:51Speaker 2: He's been one of the better hitters all all season.
- 45:53Speaker 2: That he is expensive does feel gross to pay that,
- 45:56Speaker 2: but he's got just as much upside as majority of
- 45:59Speaker 2: the people are the hitters on the slate overall. And
- 46:02Speaker 2: then yeah, Jock Jams has been a red hot good thing.
- 46:05Speaker 2: He's not in the lineup against the lefty there, so
- 46:08Speaker 2: Sean sally Ham can live to see another day.
- 46:12Speaker 1: Takes us to Wrigley here.
- 46:13Speaker 2: David Peterson Framberveld has two of my favorite pitchers on
- 46:16Speaker 2: the slate just because.
- 46:17Speaker 1: The hitting environment here are gonna be a complete one eighty.
- 46:19Speaker 2: We see this all summer long, really pretty much all
- 46:22Speaker 2: season long with Wrigley. When the win's blown out, it
- 46:25Speaker 2: usually plays above average. I know you hate the win
- 46:28Speaker 2: games in Wrigley, but the Tigers got the job done
- 46:30Speaker 2: late yesterday.
- 46:31Speaker 1: This is going to be super hitter friendly, our pitcher friendly.
- 46:35Speaker 2: Excuse me tonight here You've got like twenty something on
- 46:38Speaker 2: our win gus blown in, and you got two guys,
- 46:42Speaker 2: two ground ball guys overall, any anyways in this game,
- 46:45Speaker 2: So I don't love it. I mean you're looking at
- 46:48Speaker 2: almost twenty mine our sustained.
- 46:49Speaker 1: Wins blown in here. No offense for me.
- 46:53Speaker 2: I mean the Cubs are broken slates when it's been
- 46:55Speaker 2: thirty five degrees outside. I just I can't go here.
- 46:59Speaker 2: I think there's much better spots overall than go to
- 47:03Speaker 2: this one. But talk to me here. Any interest in Wrigley.
- 47:07Speaker 3: I don't have any interest. I mean I do like
- 47:09Speaker 3: both sides of the mound. As I said, Framber would
- 47:11Speaker 3: be one of my favorite plays. But Framber has been
- 47:15Speaker 3: bad at two of his last four starts, where he
- 47:17Speaker 3: just got absolutely shelled so last two out of three.
- 47:19Speaker 1: Actually, his last start was really good.
- 47:22Speaker 3: The Cubbies do have some bats on the right side
- 47:25Speaker 3: that you would want to attack Frambur, But then you
- 47:27Speaker 3: see that wind blown in as it is, it does
- 47:30Speaker 3: worry you. The other thing too, that long game yesterday,
- 47:32Speaker 3: Both sides used quite a bit of bullpen arms, so
- 47:35Speaker 3: I think they're going to rely on Framber to give
- 47:37Speaker 3: them six innings tonight. So that's why I do like Framber.
- 47:39Speaker 3: It just seems to be more picture friendly. So yeah,
- 47:42Speaker 3: I'll just pass on the bass. But I'll tell if
- 47:44Speaker 3: the wind was blown out a little bit more and
- 47:46Speaker 3: it wasn't as heavy blown in, I would leave the Cubbies.
- 47:49Speaker 1: In my pool.
- 47:50Speaker 3: Just because of Framber's been so up and down in
- 47:52Speaker 3: the fact that he's getting ownership, I would leave the
- 47:54Speaker 3: Cubbies in. But just because the wind's blown in, it
- 47:56Speaker 3: kind of negates all that for me. But I mean
- 47:59Speaker 3: it would be if that win was neutral lists for sure.
- 48:03Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think both of these squads are
- 48:05Speaker 2: gonna have to rely as much as they can on
- 48:07Speaker 2: both these starting pitchers, obviously more so on the Framber side.
- 48:10Speaker 1: I mean, that's why you see his outprops seventeen and
- 48:12Speaker 1: a half? Have you juiced to the over? Peterson still
- 48:15Speaker 1: has a fifteen and a half olt prop It is.
- 48:16Speaker 2: Juice to the under. But I mean you look at
- 48:18Speaker 2: the Cubs. They used what six arms? Seven arms yesterday
- 48:22Speaker 2: the Tigers used five arms. So yeah, much much better,
- 48:26Speaker 2: much different spot here. It's all pitching for me in
- 48:29Speaker 2: that one. Next fut on the slate Astros Marlins. Sean
- 48:34Speaker 2: Selly said he's loaded up on some of these fish
- 48:37Speaker 2: against am I, a pitcher that we both liked. But
- 48:41Speaker 2: I mean there's just as much downside as the upside
- 48:43Speaker 2: for a guy like him.
- 48:45Speaker 1: He can be wild.
- 48:46Speaker 2: The Marlins do have some kind of sneaky air bats overall,
- 48:50Speaker 2: especially against right handed pitching. Joe Matck hat a bomb
- 48:52Speaker 2: from me last night. He was on my main team.
- 48:54Speaker 2: He's still cheap. I love him Stours if he's fined
- 48:57Speaker 2: me back in there, which would be a huge boots
- 49:00Speaker 2: to this lineup CO nine. There is some pinshit risk overall,
- 49:03Speaker 2: but Astro's really bad bullpen in general, and all their
- 49:08Speaker 2: lefties are in the back half right the Josh Haters
- 49:10Speaker 2: of the world, there's kind of set up their end
- 49:13Speaker 2: the back end of the bullpen and Houston used four
- 49:17Speaker 2: bullpen arms yesterday. You talk about they got to be
- 49:20Speaker 2: the most tax bullpen on the slate, twenty nine pitchers
- 49:23Speaker 2: from hater in the last three, Okert's at thirty three,
- 49:26Speaker 2: AJ's at forty, a Bray's at forty three, Tens at
- 49:30Speaker 2: forty six, and Los Santos is at forty seven. Coming
- 49:33Speaker 2: off with twenty two pitches yesterday or twenty.
- 49:36Speaker 1: Eight pitches from a Bray you, I mean, I can
- 49:39Speaker 1: see it.
- 49:39Speaker 2: If am I doesn't have it, it could be a
- 49:41Speaker 2: big night ahead for the Marlins. And you can also
- 49:44Speaker 2: make the counter argument maybe they rely on am I
- 49:46Speaker 2: more and that's why we had But this is definitely
- 49:49Speaker 2: am I is not an ace by any means. I
- 49:51Speaker 2: think you can play both sides of it. Marlins are
- 49:53Speaker 2: pretty interesting overall in tournaments. Just when you look in
- 49:55Speaker 2: the bullpen, this team is fairly solid. It can be
- 49:59Speaker 2: solid times, especially against right handed pitching. Talk to me here,
- 50:02Speaker 2: how do you see this one?
- 50:04Speaker 1: Yeah? I mean, even though I do like him, I
- 50:06Speaker 1: he does struggle.
- 50:07Speaker 3: Obviously we mentioned with control, So I mean he's got
- 50:10Speaker 3: a fourteen and a half walk rate against lefties, which
- 50:12Speaker 3: is concerning is ISOs two to three, Well, but three
- 50:15Speaker 3: sixty nine, Uh isn't getting hardly that many ground balls
- 50:19Speaker 3: thirty seven percent compared to sixty percent to the right side,
- 50:23Speaker 3: So uh yeah, I.
- 50:24Speaker 1: Mean left he's been hard. He's been giving up a.
- 50:26Speaker 3: Lot of barrels twelve and a half percent. But I
- 50:30Speaker 3: just think of my is in a pretty good spot.
- 50:31Speaker 3: It's one of those spots to where you could play
- 50:33Speaker 3: him or you could play against him.
- 50:34Speaker 1: I think you could use them either way.
- 50:36Speaker 3: And you know, we were struggling for pitching with a
- 50:38Speaker 3: little bit offside like a may I mean to the
- 50:40Speaker 3: right side, it's either he's either walking you or it
- 50:43Speaker 3: seems like he's striking your ass out, Like I mean,
- 50:45Speaker 3: that's pretty much half of the batters, like thirty percent
- 50:48Speaker 3: k rate, fifteen fourteen percent walk rate, Like I mean,
- 50:51Speaker 3: so to me, I think, uh, I think it's an
- 50:54Speaker 3: interesting spot. I I don't love it. I think there's
- 50:56Speaker 3: just too good of offense. I mean the next game
- 50:59Speaker 3: here were going to talk about it's got a stinking
- 51:02Speaker 3: total of thirteen. So uh yeah, I mean that one there,
- 51:06Speaker 3: I'm gonna see how many how many games of the
- 51:09Speaker 3: Marlins last in a role in your back.
- 51:11Speaker 1: I don't give a shit if they win or nice
- 51:13Speaker 1: need some home runs.
- 51:14Speaker 3: So yeah, I could get if you'd ask me the
- 51:17Speaker 3: standings in a regular season, I'd be the dumbest dude
- 51:20Speaker 3: you could talk to about standings. I do not give
- 51:22Speaker 3: one ounce of two ships about standings in DFS baseball.
- 51:26Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I was gonna say.
- 51:28Speaker 2: I mean, this is this is DFS and in a nutshell,
- 51:31Speaker 2: right everyone, it lives in a world of what have
- 51:33Speaker 2: you done for me lately?
- 51:35Speaker 1: That's that's obvious, right. If if that was it wasn't
- 51:39Speaker 1: the case.
- 51:40Speaker 2: I mean, you would never get a low on team
- 51:43Speaker 2: and and be on have a GPP winner before everyone
- 51:47Speaker 2: else jumps on. Right, it's the same thing a guy hits,
- 51:49Speaker 2: hits a home run yesterday, now everybody jumps on them,
- 51:52Speaker 2: and vice versa.
- 51:53Speaker 1: There's there's sports or football.
- 51:55Speaker 2: Right, the stack, the wide receiver running back stack with
- 51:58Speaker 2: with the quarterback went off. So then the opposing stack
- 52:02Speaker 2: the next week against that same team as mega chalk
- 52:05Speaker 2: falls on their face. Right, It's just I don't care.
- 52:08Speaker 2: It's a guy, it's a starting pitcher who's probably projections
- 52:11Speaker 2: wise dry run wise. The second high stone pitcher behind
- 52:15Speaker 2: Castillo on the slate. Because of that, right, everyone sees that, oh,
- 52:18Speaker 2: Marlin's lost a ton the projections love am I because
- 52:21Speaker 2: of that.
- 52:22Speaker 1: They haven't.
- 52:23Speaker 2: But I mean the Marlins are also getting another lefty
- 52:25Speaker 2: power bat back and Kyle Stowers in I he gives
- 52:28Speaker 2: up power, he gives up fly balls, he has command
- 52:31Speaker 2: issues to the left side, and you got a tax
- 52:33Speaker 2: bullpen which is not good behind him. Right, So can
- 52:37Speaker 2: you play in my absolutely against the Marlins. But there's very,
- 52:41Speaker 2: very easily. I would not be shocked to see the
- 52:44Speaker 2: Marlins beyond some winners. Joe Mack did it for me
- 52:48Speaker 2: last night. Liam Hicks hit Obam again last night. I mean,
- 52:51Speaker 2: I go right back to Conine Stours. Yeah, so that's
- 52:54Speaker 2: kind of kind of my take on that. It's not
- 52:57Speaker 2: that I'm backing the Marlins to win this game.
- 52:59Speaker 1: I care about fantasy points at the end of the day,
- 53:01Speaker 1: and I think they can scar fantasy points here tonight
- 53:03Speaker 1: against a chalky starting pitcher and at tax bullpen.
- 53:07Speaker 3: They had two run homers and they could be on
- 53:11Speaker 3: the winner right exactly.
- 53:13Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, nothing else matters besides tonight. Really, it
- 53:17Speaker 2: doesn't matter what the game logs day. I mean, you
- 53:19Speaker 2: can have the hottest hitter in the world come in
- 53:21Speaker 2: and get a goose egg the next night when everybody
- 53:24Speaker 2: jumps on him and he's sixty percent or whatever. Right,
- 53:26Speaker 2: So make it correlated to any sport you want. It
- 53:31Speaker 2: always holds true. Everyone lives in a in a recency.
- 53:34Speaker 2: What have you done for me lately? World? And that's
- 53:36Speaker 2: why you see concentrated ownership in every sport in DFS.
- 53:40Speaker 2: So next spot, National's Rockies. This is going to be
- 53:43Speaker 2: the chalky spot on the slate for a good reason.
- 53:45Speaker 2: Both teams. You're gonna see a ton of game sacks
- 53:48Speaker 2: of this game because the spend up pitching feels pretty
- 53:52Speaker 2: meat bleak overall and outside of maybe a Chase Burns,
- 53:56Speaker 2: but Chase Burns is eleven to five on a slate.
- 53:58Speaker 2: When you got Louis Castilla projections wise, that is right
- 54:02Speaker 2: there with him, and he's seventy six hundred, You're gonna
- 54:04Speaker 2: see a ton of this game stacked up with in
- 54:06Speaker 2: my and Castillo teams. It's hard to get away from it.
- 54:10Speaker 2: National has been the best offense in baseball. Now get
- 54:13Speaker 2: a really, really friendly matchup in Lorenzen. You got wind
- 54:16Speaker 2: blown out here super hot and humid, and Coors Field
- 54:18Speaker 2: gonna play even more home run friendly, which obviously we
- 54:21Speaker 2: know this park is not a great home run park
- 54:23Speaker 2: in general, but it's gonna play home run friendly again
- 54:25Speaker 2: here tonight. Lorenzo's been atrocious to the left side, would Garcia, Abrams,
- 54:31Speaker 2: keibert Ruiz, Dalan Lyle, even Nunez. Don't forget about him
- 54:35Speaker 2: hitting in the back half. I mean, this team any
- 54:39Speaker 2: which way, full nining at bats. They scored what eight
- 54:42Speaker 2: runs or something like that yesterday with a couple of
- 54:44Speaker 2: home runs. It's hard to argue against the spot. And
- 54:47Speaker 2: then you got Miekless on the other side for the Rockies. McCarthy,
- 54:52Speaker 2: carrig looks really good. Hunter Goodman's always got a ton
- 54:55Speaker 2: of power. He's a spend up to be fairly contrarian
- 54:58Speaker 2: up at the top at sixty one hundred castro runfield,
- 55:01Speaker 2: I mean, this looks like the best spot, and it
- 55:03Speaker 2: is the best spot on paper.
- 55:04Speaker 1: It's really hard to ignore when you kind of put
- 55:07Speaker 1: it up against the rest of the slate.
- 55:08Speaker 2: Obviously, yesterday we had the win game at Wrigley that
- 55:10Speaker 2: pulled a bunch of ownership away from it. Not the
- 55:12Speaker 2: case here tonight, Talk to me, how do you see
- 55:15Speaker 2: this one? Are you kind of pushing the chips in
- 55:17Speaker 2: and gonna get a little different. I know you already
- 55:19Speaker 2: said you're kind of under on Castillo myself as well,
- 55:22Speaker 2: so that should be majority of a difference maker when
- 55:28Speaker 2: you're playing this game, But how do.
- 55:30Speaker 3: You see this one unless you're totally different at pitcher
- 55:34Speaker 3: and that picture goes off for you that you chose
- 55:36Speaker 3: and just you know, smashes everybody by ten or twelve points. Like,
- 55:40Speaker 3: you're literally gonna have to be perfect on your choices
- 55:43Speaker 3: in this game. Like literally, if you think you're going one, two, three, five,
- 55:46Speaker 3: or you know, top of the lineups and pretty you're
- 55:49Speaker 3: you're gonna be like everybody else. And then the guy
- 55:51Speaker 3: that has the eight hitter that hits you know, has
- 55:54Speaker 3: four RBIs tonight is the guy that's gonna win. You
- 55:57Speaker 3: literally are gonna have to be perfect if you play
- 55:59Speaker 3: this game and it goes off and it ends up
- 56:01Speaker 3: being the winner, the winner will have that the all
- 56:04Speaker 3: the top bats in that exact game, not even minus well,
- 56:07Speaker 3: it will all be them all because you will not
- 56:09Speaker 3: be able to fade. It's you're gonna have to be
- 56:12Speaker 3: perfect because the ownership's gonna be so high. So for me,
- 56:16Speaker 3: you know, like you're gonna have to get tricky with
- 56:18Speaker 3: a little bit. Maybe play some rap rounds, maybe this
- 56:20Speaker 3: mix up your lineups. Don't play a majority of the
- 56:23Speaker 3: same guys in the same lineup. Make some of those
- 56:26Speaker 3: Nats lineups without a Wood or an Abrams, or you know,
- 56:30Speaker 3: try to mix it up a little bit. So yeah,
- 56:32Speaker 3: if if you decide to play this game, just know,
- 56:35Speaker 3: in any other chocky circumstance, you're gonna have to be
- 56:38Speaker 3: perfect all the way across the board because somebody's gonna
- 56:41Speaker 3: have that right combination because this game is being played
- 56:43Speaker 3: so heavily. So for me, I mean, the opportunity is
- 56:46Speaker 3: there for like a Braves or a Giants, or you know,
- 56:49Speaker 3: even like a Royals that we discussed, because if those
- 56:52Speaker 3: teams go off, you're only gonna have to be five, eight,
- 56:55Speaker 3: ten percent of the field. You're not gonna have to
- 56:57Speaker 3: be as perfect. You might only have to have the
- 56:59Speaker 3: two big guys in them bat.
- 57:00Speaker 5: So yeah, for me, I mean I could see why
- 57:04Speaker 5: you would want to fade it, but I mean you
- 57:07Speaker 5: eire gonna have to go overboard with it, and you know,
- 57:10Speaker 5: if you're playing like twenty teams and you're gonna basically
- 57:14Speaker 5: twenty or eighteen teams, you're gonna go that route.
- 57:17Speaker 1: I just go full overboard on it and just kind
- 57:19Speaker 1: of mix in your lineup.
- 57:20Speaker 3: If you're playing one team, my suggestion is the fade
- 57:23Speaker 3: Corse play, maybe some higher end.
- 57:26Speaker 1: Pitching, and go that route. I think you got a
- 57:28Speaker 1: better chance to the top.
- 57:29Speaker 3: It seems to be easier for me to see myself
- 57:31Speaker 3: getting to the top that way than me have to
- 57:33Speaker 3: be exactly perfect with all my bat choices and then
- 57:37Speaker 3: for my pitcher to hit. So yeah, I think, uh,
- 57:41Speaker 3: I think you gotta make some choices in that game
- 57:44Speaker 3: because just no, it's gonna be heavily all. I mean,
- 57:45Speaker 3: I think Wooden cj Abrams are gonna be fifty plus.
- 57:50Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely single entry stuff, and that's how you can
- 57:52Speaker 1: be different. It feels gross leaving off cj Abrams or
- 57:55Speaker 1: would right Lorenzo's Patrocia's against left side, but throwing a
- 57:59Speaker 1: Curtis to me throwing a Jacob Young, a Dylan Cruz.
- 58:02Speaker 1: Some of those righties.
- 58:03Speaker 2: There are even a Nunyas who's gonna hit eighth or
- 58:05Speaker 2: ninth at four k throwing him.
- 58:08Speaker 1: I mean that back half.
- 58:09Speaker 2: You look at Cruz, Young Nunyas, I'd be shocked if
- 58:12Speaker 2: those guys are are over much over ten percent, right,
- 58:16Speaker 2: whereas the top of the lineup's all gonna be twenty five, thirty,
- 58:19Speaker 2: forty percent depending on what contest you're in. Right, So
- 58:22Speaker 2: you do are gonna have to be perfect to your
- 58:25Speaker 2: point right where I'm back on Darren's side here now,
- 58:28Speaker 2: because it's gonna come down to one offs, right, It's
- 58:30Speaker 2: gonna come down to the one off. It's gonna come
- 58:33Speaker 2: down to the the one two, six, seven eight or something. Right,
- 58:38Speaker 2: kind of a really weird gap missed all the middle
- 58:41Speaker 2: of the lineup, something like that.
- 58:43Speaker 1: But it's really hard to get away from.
- 58:45Speaker 2: You're gonna see mm me players just shove all the
- 58:48Speaker 2: chips in and just hope to hit the right lottery ticket.
- 58:51Speaker 2: In this game, it's just really hard to get away from.
- 58:54Speaker 2: The Rockies bullpen is pretty rested.
- 58:56Speaker 1: It is a slight concern, but the NAT's been so
- 59:01Speaker 1: good against both sides of the plate.
- 59:02Speaker 2: Are both both handedness. The Knat's bullpen is much more
- 59:06Speaker 2: beat up, in my opinion, are much more taxed than
- 59:10Speaker 2: what the Rockies is, and it's not a great bullpen either,
- 59:14Speaker 2: so you wanted to get a little lower ownership. It's
- 59:17Speaker 2: the Rocky side, but projections are actually pushing that side
- 59:20Speaker 2: more when when you run the drive, run but go ahead.
- 59:24Speaker 3: I was just gonna say, in a situation like we're
- 59:26Speaker 3: in here with the Nats, I think actually one of
- 59:29Speaker 3: the best players you can do today is take out
- 59:32Speaker 3: Wood and put in and put in uh In, put
- 59:34Speaker 3: In out and put.
- 59:35Speaker 1: In alvaretze and uh Alvarez in there. So that's what
- 59:39Speaker 1: I would do.
- 59:40Speaker 3: I mean, Alvarez is a fucking beast, Like you could
- 59:42Speaker 3: take him out pretty much swap them to out. If
- 59:45Speaker 3: if Alvarez beats beats Wood tonight and Wood has a
- 59:48Speaker 3: decent night, you're gonna be hit everybody else. Like, maybe
- 59:51Speaker 3: look some for some guys worth some high end upside
- 59:54Speaker 3: that you could swap out that are gonna be high
- 59:56Speaker 3: or like people are gonna look at it and be like,
- 59:58Speaker 3: I'm not taking Wood out of my lineup. How many
- 1:00:00Speaker 3: people are gonna put in uh, you know, Valdez over
- 1:00:03Speaker 3: over him. So I think that's something that that that
- 1:00:07Speaker 3: I you know, yord On, I should say, well, I
- 1:00:10Speaker 3: keep I get Framber and ord On mixed up all
- 1:00:12Speaker 3: the time. But yeah, so Jordon for me is a
- 1:00:15Speaker 3: guy that I would definitely be willing to swap out
- 1:00:18Speaker 3: for Wood.
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: I think that's a decent play. Yeah, Or Awan Soto
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: at the catcher, leave off c j Abrams playing Ellie
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: day La Cruz, a Gunner Henderson, a Colson Montgomery, something
- 1:00:29Speaker 1: like that, right, little things like that.
- 1:00:31Speaker 4: Or playing at Stack and leave out Wood and leave
- 1:00:33Speaker 4: out both of them? Would Ann Abrams play Cardiss Meet
- 1:00:36Speaker 4: played Dalen Lyle play Nunez played Keiber Luiz some of
- 1:00:39Speaker 4: these other lefties, and then you have maybe that gets
- 1:00:42Speaker 4: you up to a guy like Chase Burns or Kevin Gosman.
- 1:00:46Speaker 2: Or something like that instead of a Luis Castile. Right,
- 1:00:48Speaker 2: So there's definitely ways to play this differently than the field.
- 1:00:51Speaker 2: You're gonna have to get unique when you do it.
- 1:00:54Speaker 2: But it is by far and away the best game
- 1:00:55Speaker 2: on the slate. It's very hard to get away from.
- 1:00:58Speaker 2: But I do like the main team. One of my
- 1:01:00Speaker 2: main team's gonna go in on it. One of them
- 1:01:02Speaker 2: is probably not even gonna play anyone from this game.
- 1:01:04Speaker 2: And I'm just that's the benefits of a portfolio, and
- 1:01:08Speaker 2: obviously not everyone can do that, but I do think
- 1:01:11Speaker 2: it's very hard to ignore that game on the slate
- 1:01:15Speaker 2: takes us to the next game. Angels, Cardinals, liberatorre Urrena
- 1:01:18Speaker 2: on the mounds. Cardinals I think are kind of interesting.
- 1:01:21Speaker 2: Urina kind of smoking mirrors. He's been really good real life,
- 1:01:25Speaker 2: but one of these times is going to come back
- 1:01:26Speaker 2: crashing down to earth here. Cardinals have some sneaky upside
- 1:01:30Speaker 2: at times here, But I don't love this game on
- 1:01:33Speaker 2: really either side. Angels, you got some ready power, like
- 1:01:36Speaker 2: a Mike Trout. Who's gonna be unowned on this slate
- 1:01:38Speaker 2: at fifty two hundred netto at shortstop?
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: Who's gonna be unowned?
- 1:01:42Speaker 2: Because guys like Wood and Abrams, like we talked about,
- 1:01:44Speaker 2: even even the Rockies guys right, the Moniacs, the McCarthy's
- 1:01:49Speaker 2: of the world, the even Tobar, things like that are
- 1:01:52Speaker 2: gonna get much more ownership.
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: So you can make that case.
- 1:01:55Speaker 2: But I don't love this game overall from a DFS
- 1:01:58Speaker 2: stacking perspective.
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: But how do you see it?
- 1:02:01Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't love it either. Urina does walk a
- 1:02:04Speaker 3: ton of dudes to the left side. The Cardinals are
- 1:02:06Speaker 3: pretty patient from the left side, but we're not looking
- 1:02:08Speaker 3: for walks, We're looking for homers. Urina just gives up
- 1:02:11Speaker 3: a ton of ground ball. So i'd i'd be out
- 1:02:14Speaker 3: on that Liberator, like we said we liked on the
- 1:02:17Speaker 3: other side. Uh So, i'd I'd just rather play Liberator
- 1:02:22Speaker 3: than than for me to go after these Angels. I mean,
- 1:02:24Speaker 3: Libertore has been getting bailed up a little bit, but uh, yeah,
- 1:02:28Speaker 3: I think I'd just.
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: Rather rather play him.
- 1:02:31Speaker 3: I mean, he's got ground ball lean to the left side,
- 1:02:34Speaker 3: hasn't been giving up too many ground balls to the
- 1:02:36Speaker 3: right side, but uh, I mean it's just the Angels
- 1:02:39Speaker 3: have been tough. I don't think I have the Angels
- 1:02:40Speaker 3: ranked up high enough here tonight to fool with.
- 1:02:43Speaker 1: Them on this late.
- 1:02:45Speaker 2: Yeah, so Colson Montgommer got scratched, but they put it
- 1:02:47Speaker 2: in a Kuna. Another shortstop who's I think he's probably
- 1:02:51Speaker 2: what two k He doesn't have a lot of power,
- 1:02:54Speaker 2: but he has stolen base. I mean, he's got a
- 1:02:56Speaker 2: ton of speed, so that maybe gets you up to
- 1:02:59Speaker 2: guys Chase Burns differently. There definitely hurts the White Sox
- 1:03:03Speaker 2: stack overall, but I don't think it's a end all
- 1:03:06Speaker 2: be all. I still like some of those lefties for
- 1:03:08Speaker 2: sure from Chicago. Didn't want to circle back and hit
- 1:03:11Speaker 2: on that. Two games left to talk about last one
- 1:03:13Speaker 2: or the next one. Athletics Dbacks Cole Drake making his
- 1:03:17Speaker 2: start kind of out of urgency here.
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: You could go to some of these a's.
- 1:03:22Speaker 2: Guy like Shay lang Leers is gonna be ONU owned
- 1:03:25Speaker 2: at fifty four hundred at catcher. He's always got a
- 1:03:27Speaker 2: ton of power, especially against left handed pitching. Kolbe Thomas,
- 1:03:31Speaker 2: I don't love it overall. Dbacks are even getting a
- 1:03:34Speaker 2: lot of ownership on this slate, and I just I
- 1:03:36Speaker 2: don't I don't see it. I mean, they could get there,
- 1:03:39Speaker 2: they could do their thing.
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: Kettl.
- 1:03:40Speaker 2: Marte is still too cheap. I think Perdomo is still
- 1:03:43Speaker 2: too cheap. You got Cormyn Carroll if he's back in there.
- 1:03:46Speaker 2: I think those three guys are playable or just about
- 1:03:48Speaker 2: any time they're on the slate. But I don't love
- 1:03:52Speaker 2: I don't love the Dbacks a ton here. I know
- 1:03:55Speaker 2: the age bullpen's not great. Jack Perkins hasn't been good,
- 1:03:58Speaker 2: but I do think he's still got some pedal. He's
- 1:04:00Speaker 2: still got some strike up potential in there, really good
- 1:04:02Speaker 2: KP for nine number.
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: Talk to me, how do you see this one?
- 1:04:06Speaker 3: As far as k's goes, Perkins ain't bad thirty two
- 1:04:08Speaker 3: percent of the left side, twenty two to the right.
- 1:04:11Speaker 3: He is getting buriled up on the right side a
- 1:04:13Speaker 3: little reverse splitsing nine percent is woba's three point fifty five.
- 1:04:17Speaker 3: Ground Ball rates are not there. Fly ball rates pretty
- 1:04:21Speaker 3: high to the right side forty. So I could see why,
- 1:04:24Speaker 3: I mean the lefties. For me, the d Backs, I
- 1:04:27Speaker 3: don't have them like ranked up there with the White
- 1:04:28Speaker 3: Sox and the Braves and all that, but I could
- 1:04:31Speaker 3: I could see an argument to uh to go against
- 1:04:34Speaker 3: Perkins in that bullpen of the A.
- 1:04:36Speaker 1: So I don't mind it.
- 1:04:37Speaker 3: I just you know, the the d Backs just haven't
- 1:04:40Speaker 3: been a team I've really latched onto all that much.
- 1:04:42Speaker 1: We got a game total sitting at nine and a half.
- 1:04:45Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Corbyn Carrol, if he's in there, that
- 1:04:47Speaker 3: definitely makes that line up a lot better, obviously, and
- 1:04:51Speaker 3: maybe that bumps it up for me. I'd have to
- 1:04:53Speaker 3: see that and see Corbyn Carroll in that lineup, But yeah,
- 1:04:56Speaker 3: I think uh, I think it's doable.
- 1:04:58Speaker 1: I just don't love it.
- 1:05:01Speaker 2: Yeah, I actually think the righty power guys, but there's
- 1:05:03Speaker 2: just not a lot of them either right from from them.
- 1:05:08Speaker 2: I mean Arenado, I guess if you wanted to go
- 1:05:09Speaker 2: there Moreno, I think those righty's Perkins's reverse fuzzy lower
- 1:05:15Speaker 2: strikeouts a lot more power to the right side. So
- 1:05:18Speaker 2: you're looking at that, But I mean, yeah, you got
- 1:05:20Speaker 2: some cheap guys like a wald Schmid who's dirt cheap, Arnatto,
- 1:05:23Speaker 2: like I said, Towel, who's cheap. So if those guys
- 1:05:27Speaker 2: fit and you kind of flip the build and then
- 1:05:28Speaker 2: get up to some of those spend up cores bats
- 1:05:31Speaker 2: and afford some of the spend up spin up pitching.
- 1:05:35Speaker 1: But it's just a lot of teams are going to
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: be like that.
- 1:05:37Speaker 2: At least from running the drive run and taking a
- 1:05:38Speaker 2: look at teams, a lot of these Arizona pieces of
- 1:05:41Speaker 2: guys two and three man stacks are gonna be fillers
- 1:05:43Speaker 2: around that Coors Field, whether you're five sacking the Rockies
- 1:05:46Speaker 2: five stacking the Gnats, there's just gonna be a lot
- 1:05:48Speaker 2: of similar builds like that. So that does have me
- 1:05:52Speaker 2: a little concerned with a lineup that I just don't
- 1:05:55Speaker 2: think is that great overall at its current state. Last
- 1:05:58Speaker 2: game of the slate, two of our payer to the
- 1:06:01Speaker 2: best starting pitcher and plays on the slate gonna have
- 1:06:03Speaker 2: all the leverage in the world. I think in Ellie
- 1:06:06Speaker 2: Day La Cruz is super interesting. I know, the park
- 1:06:08Speaker 2: sucks or JJ Blude, I mean Baday has been really
- 1:06:12Speaker 2: really good all year and he's forty one hundred going
- 1:06:15Speaker 2: up to the highest on pitcher on the slate. Yeah,
- 1:06:16Speaker 2: the park sucks, like I said, but Blade has a
- 1:06:19Speaker 2: ton of power. It doesn't matter what field he's on.
- 1:06:21Speaker 2: Ellie Day La Cruz has a ton of upside alleys
- 1:06:23Speaker 2: and they're gonna be I mean, Ellie's a direct pivot
- 1:06:26Speaker 2: right off of CJ Abrams. Yeah, does it field girls
- 1:06:28Speaker 2: playing Ellie de la Cruz against Louis Castile over C.
- 1:06:32Speaker 2: J Abrams against Michael Lorenzen. Yes, but all he has
- 1:06:35Speaker 2: to do is outscore him on one night, one given day.
- 1:06:40Speaker 2: I don't think it's the worst play, but this is
- 1:06:41Speaker 2: not a game that I love for offense outside of
- 1:06:44Speaker 2: just to close your eyes and.
- 1:06:46Speaker 1: Play the leverage against Castillo.
- 1:06:48Speaker 2: If I had to pick a side, it'd be much
- 1:06:49Speaker 2: more on the red side of things than the Mariners.
- 1:06:54Speaker 1: But Chase Burns props.
- 1:06:56Speaker 2: Wise would suggest he's going five maybe six innings maximum
- 1:06:59Speaker 2: and then you got a bad Bread's bullpen behind them.
- 1:07:01Speaker 2: But it's more Reds just with the leverage you get
- 1:07:04Speaker 2: off of Castille if anything. And really those Blade and
- 1:07:07Speaker 2: Ellie up at the top. Yeah, that'd be about it.
- 1:07:11Speaker 2: Maybe I just play some one offs. We don't like
- 1:07:13Speaker 2: the park, so it's not really a slate.
- 1:07:15Speaker 3: I want to get too cute with offense, just because
- 1:07:17Speaker 3: we got such a powerful game total sitting thirteen, we
- 1:07:21Speaker 3: got a bunch of nines up there on the board,
- 1:07:23Speaker 3: So I'm not gonna get too fancy here and try
- 1:07:27Speaker 3: to jam some stuff in in a park that we
- 1:07:30Speaker 3: very rarely would play.
- 1:07:31Speaker 1: So I'm not gonna go there.
- 1:07:32Speaker 3: But I mean guys like that in that situation, like
- 1:07:35Speaker 3: in Ellie who can steal a bag kind of helps
- 1:07:37Speaker 3: my you know, helps too. So yeah, I don't mind
- 1:07:40Speaker 3: that if you're looking for like a one off type play,
- 1:07:43Speaker 3: maybe to get a little different from from Abrams or
- 1:07:46Speaker 3: something like that, if you want to do something like that.
- 1:07:48Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean this one here just it just
- 1:07:51Speaker 3: not getting it for me for offense.
- 1:07:55Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree takes in the show your favorite pitching combination,
- 1:08:00Speaker 2: Top three stacks and then a home run coffee album.
- 1:08:04Speaker 1: I mean, I like frambur and AMAI on on DK.
- 1:08:07Speaker 3: I really I think Chase Burns would be in play too,
- 1:08:10Speaker 3: just because he got trying to flip some builds. If
- 1:08:12Speaker 3: you're not gonna look at that course stacks, obviously, the
- 1:08:15Speaker 3: two core stacks would be up there, but I think
- 1:08:19Speaker 3: the White Sox are definitely interesting for me today. I
- 1:08:23Speaker 3: think the Giants are interesting. Astros Braves I think would
- 1:08:27Speaker 3: be interesting. Those would be up there. In my top
- 1:08:30Speaker 3: four home run call, I'm going to Murakami. I think
- 1:08:34Speaker 3: I think Murakami hits a Homer. It seems kind of easy,
- 1:08:37Speaker 3: but I mean that's where I'm going. I think he
- 1:08:39Speaker 3: hits one.
- 1:08:41Speaker 1: Yeah, I like that.
- 1:08:42Speaker 2: I'm gonna go Framber Valdez and then I'm gonna go
- 1:08:47Speaker 2: My other picture is gonna probably be I'm just gonna
- 1:08:50Speaker 2: pair them both up.
- 1:08:51Speaker 1: I'm gonna go David Peterson. I feels gross. Uh. Top
- 1:08:57Speaker 1: three stacks.
- 1:08:57Speaker 2: NAT's number one, obviously, as everyone would would say, Rockies
- 1:09:01Speaker 2: are up there too. But outside of the that, I'm
- 1:09:03Speaker 2: looking at the Giants. I like the Giants quite a
- 1:09:05Speaker 2: bit here and then the White Sox. I'm I'm with
- 1:09:09Speaker 2: you on the White Sox. I like that my home
- 1:09:11Speaker 2: run call. I'm gonna ride the hot hand. I'm gonna
- 1:09:13Speaker 2: go to a guy who's gonna be unowned and is
- 1:09:16Speaker 2: cheap Joey Ortiz. I'm gonna think, uh, he gets another
- 1:09:20Speaker 2: one here. I think the roof is open again in
- 1:09:22Speaker 2: Milwaukee as well. Pretty decent weather. Uh and uh, you
- 1:09:27Speaker 2: got a starting pitcher who has some uh has some
- 1:09:30Speaker 2: ability to give up some home runs, so kind of
- 1:09:32Speaker 2: off the wall Joey Ortiz.
- 1:09:34Speaker 1: But I'll ride the hot hand with with some Joey
- 1:09:37Speaker 1: Orties against the left the brewers. Oh wouldn't I guess? No, no, no, no,
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: but yeah no, that's gonna do it. Appreciate everyone tuning in.
