Speaker 1: Welcome in everybody to Fantasy Bros. MLB. This is Leading
Speaker 1: Off Live, brought to you by Prize Big. Sign up
Speaker 1: for Prize Pigs today and use that promo code leading
Speaker 1: Off when you do. It's me Joey p That of
Speaker 1: course is the Welsh and it's you, the Peanuts and
Speaker 1: the Crackerjacks hanging out in the chat. Before we get
Speaker 1: go into that, I just want to give a shout
Speaker 1: out to Cody's dad. He's hanging out with him while
Speaker 1: he's having hip surgery, and I think they're watching the
Speaker 1: show together, which is good, and that's our key demographic,
Speaker 1: people having hip surgeries. But in all serious Cody, I
Speaker 1: hope everyone's okay with that, and he's watching the show
Speaker 1: now apparently, so that's good. We continue to be very
Speaker 1: popular and if there's anything that could motivate somebody to
Speaker 1: get out of a hospital bed, it's got to be
Speaker 1: having to sit and listen to us, right well.
Speaker 2: Very popular in medical awards for sure. Any base surgery,
Speaker 2: you know, god speed on a hip sort. I don't
Speaker 2: even know what that entails. A lot, it's a lot,
Speaker 2: so Cody, a lot of us, well, a lot, a
Speaker 2: lot of us in a bed.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, good with them. But well, I mean you
Speaker 1: see all the night goes Welsh? Did you get all
Speaker 1: your satiations from all the college baseball are you? What's
Speaker 1: the what's the Welsh level? It's been a very exciting
Speaker 1: few days for you with the college baseball before we
Speaker 1: get to pro baseball stuff.
Speaker 2: Well, it's all over. The Welsh level is very high.
Speaker 2: Because I had to have action on that game, and
Speaker 2: the money line for LSU sucked, so like I did
Speaker 2: in Game one, I played the run line here and
Speaker 2: LSU put a beat down on Florida and they are
Speaker 2: your College World Series champions, and it was a pretty
Speaker 2: awesome game. They were gonna put Paul Skeens back in,
Speaker 2: who might be the number one overall pick. They had
Speaker 2: Dylan Cruz. It's a great series, LSU. They're the big winners.
Speaker 2: Now we move to the draft, which is like a
Speaker 2: couple of weeks away, and cashed cash my call, I'm
Speaker 2: two and zero College World Series, which at.
Speaker 1: You crushing the college baseball team. Well, let's talk about
Speaker 1: the professionals, and the best professional is Shoeotani. Once again,
Speaker 1: we got to start here. He had the victory over
Speaker 1: the White Sox for the Angels hit his twenty sixth
Speaker 1: home run, home swiped his eleventh baseball, Yeah his bag.
Speaker 1: Excuse me, but yeah, he had a baseball that still
Speaker 1: hasn't landed yet. Yesterday too, was quite the homer and he.
Speaker 2: Got me back on the board, which was maybe the
Speaker 2: most important thing all of this, not for Otani or
Speaker 2: anybody else, who was to get me back on the
Speaker 2: board and help cash my little hit parlay, because Ezekiel
Speaker 2: Duran had just got a hit like five minutes before
Speaker 2: and then bye bye show. Hey, Otani absolutely smacks that
Speaker 2: for I think the league lead right twenty six.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's up at twenty six with the league lead
Speaker 1: with Alonso missing some time. And I also judge for he.
Speaker 2: Was tired with Matt Olsen at twenty five before that.
Speaker 1: Now, so Otani could very well be the hit leader,
Speaker 1: the hit king, I should say, in terms of home runs,
Speaker 1: in terms of the home run king, I should say,
Speaker 1: he has a chance to be the strikeout king if
Speaker 1: he does both of those things in the same season.
Speaker 1: My goodness, how amazing would that.
Speaker 2: Beere is he at? And I have to look now
Speaker 2: that you said that, because I was well over on striking. Yeah,
Speaker 2: we're gonna look here because that is an important one,
Speaker 2: and I don't think I said it here. This might
Speaker 2: have been ITL. But the only person with higher odds
Speaker 2: to make this about Corbyn Carroll, who has been struggling.
Speaker 2: By the way, the only person with the higher odds
Speaker 2: of lockdown of an award is Otani an al an
Speaker 2: al MVP, and that's the only guy. So okay, So
Speaker 2: on strikeouts here here and seventeen. Your leaderboard is one
Speaker 2: forty six for Strider, Gossman is one twenty seven. Pablo
Speaker 2: Lopez won twenty Otani one seventeen, so he's third in
Speaker 2: the AL and there are a total of twenty one
Speaker 2: pitchers with twenty one with one hundred or more strikeouts.
Speaker 2: By the way, I wanted to ask you this, and
Speaker 2: to ask you this the other day, those ridiculous trades,
Speaker 2: because we're talking about Otani here for a second. Otani
Speaker 2: is like minus six fifty for al MVP, and I
Speaker 2: know you won't not that we would touch that number anyways,
Speaker 2: but you wouldn't touch it because of your Otani getting
Speaker 2: trade thing. I on ITL yesterday said without doubt one
Speaker 2: hundred percent Otani will not be traded. I feel it
Speaker 2: one hundred.
Speaker 1: Getting closer to that. Yeah, no, No.
Speaker 2: My agreement after fred Wardo Escobar and Mike Mustakis a
Speaker 2: month before that.
Speaker 1: If those pieces don't put you over the top for
Speaker 1: the Angels, I don't know what would I mean? Mike
Speaker 1: Mustakas and Eduardo Escobar game changing players. Uh, there is
Speaker 1: a bit of satura sarcasm in my voice, if you
Speaker 1: can tell from my uh my tone. But no, I
Speaker 1: agree with you. I think the problem is the expanded
Speaker 1: playoffs makes it a really difficult sell right now to
Speaker 1: the fan base to deal show hel Tommy. It's getting
Speaker 1: harder and harder every time they have, you know, every
Speaker 1: time they they're hovering in this wild card range, you know,
Speaker 1: and you're right, they are making acquisitions. It doesn't feel
Speaker 1: like they're going to trade him. And you know what's
Speaker 1: going to happen. Uh, they are going to lose him
Speaker 1: to free agency and.
Speaker 2: They're gonna miss the playoffs, and they're gonna miss the
Speaker 2: playoffs by like two games. They're gonna do that. But
Speaker 2: you've got the guy who's gonna you know, sell all
Speaker 2: the jerseys. He's gonna get all the records. I mean
Speaker 2: he's gonna get all the accolade. It's all gonna be
Speaker 2: there for him.
Speaker 1: They can build a statue of him outside of the
Speaker 1: Angels ballpark, and they should and then uh, they'll have
Speaker 1: day that'll be fun. And then the Angels will never
Speaker 1: see a World Series.
Speaker 2: I mean, I want to see that Mexico artist, the
Speaker 2: Mexico Series artists who did the Jan Soto. I'd like
Speaker 2: to see a show. Hey, the MVP one.
Speaker 1: Do we have one of those things you don't see
Speaker 1: that I don't I don't knew we don't have that.
Speaker 1: We do have Spencer Schrider's strikeout number, which was ten. Yesterday.
Speaker 1: I tempted Fate Welsh and I was rewarded nicely. Crushed
Speaker 1: the strikeout props yesterday got him get Castillo and they
Speaker 1: were big number of big number. Nine and a half
Speaker 1: went over, just got I by this skin.
Speaker 2: That's not your that's not your type of bet either.
Speaker 2: So I was I was happy for you when I
Speaker 2: saw it, because.
Speaker 1: You like what I always say, it's always the automatic.
Speaker 1: I see eight and a half, I go the under
Speaker 1: and seventy five percent of the time it's spot on.
Speaker 1: But it was more than matchup against the Twinkies and
Speaker 1: the Twinkies did let me down. Congratulations Twinkies. Ten strikeouts first,
Speaker 1: Bencer Strideau. He is at the very top of that
Speaker 1: list as Welsh had one to forty six right now
Speaker 1: with the strikeouts. But Showy Altani, I mean right now,
Speaker 1: I'd vote for him for cy Young, I'd vote for
Speaker 1: him for MVP. We talked so much about show Hey
Speaker 1: winning that Cy Young. I think that is starting. If
Speaker 1: you want to make money on Atani, that's the place
Speaker 1: to do it now.
Speaker 2: Yesterday, I'm trying to remember who was the leader of
Speaker 2: the pack. It wasn't Otani's like fourth in the al
Speaker 2: Cy Young God, who was it was?
Speaker 1: I will look over Betting Pros right now.
Speaker 2: I think it was Gosman.
Speaker 1: It's probably Gossman. I know Cole is still in that
Speaker 1: conversation with two.
Speaker 2: Gossman was one, and then I think Otani was four,
Speaker 2: and then I'm missing somebody in that group. Maybe Joe Ryan, maybe.
Speaker 1: Joe on bettingpros dot com right now, or you could
Speaker 1: just download the Betting Pros app. You could also join
Speaker 1: our little Betting Pros leading off group. There it is
Speaker 1: right now. Franbervaldez at plus ten hundred, Jane McClanahan plus
Speaker 1: three sixty is the best number you can get, Garrett
Speaker 1: Cole plus five to fifty, Kevin Gossman plus six hundred,
Speaker 1: and then there's Showyotani's still at twelve to one. Folks,
Speaker 1: the O Tani narrative continues to get stronger and stronger.
Speaker 1: We'll see what today's start brings us. I want to
Speaker 1: talk about the Futures Game because those rosters were announced.
Speaker 1: I look them over. I know lots of exciting things.
Speaker 1: You got the Jackson Holidays, You've got the Marcelo Mayers.
Speaker 1: So who are you excited about seeing in this Future's
Speaker 1: game coming up and not too long?
Speaker 2: Well, I mean Jackson Holiday is like a no doubter,
Speaker 2: That's an absolute no doubt across the board. Let me
Speaker 2: take a look here. Actually just wrote this down. Junior
Speaker 2: Camanaro probably one of the most fun That's a guy
Speaker 2: that has moved right into near the top ten of
Speaker 2: overall process.
Speaker 1: By the way, if that doesn't sound like an old
Speaker 1: gangster name for like nineteen eighty four.
Speaker 2: Judia Cavnaro, get that j Junior Camaro.
Speaker 1: Oh that's that's like, that's like nineteen thirties forties gangster.
Speaker 1: I'm talking like you know, this guy was a compo
Speaker 1: in the uh the Gambido crime family. Hey, go talk
Speaker 1: to Junior Camerro. Go talk to him and go take
Speaker 1: Louis with you and see if you can use guys
Speaker 1: can figure out some stuff. I mean, what's his last.
Speaker 2: Name again, Junior Camonaro, Junior Caminaro.
Speaker 1: Hey, Junior, what you do? Hey? Don't you go see
Speaker 1: that guy about that? I guess a parking tickets? So
Speaker 1: wanna go talk to that that judge. Make sure they
Speaker 1: go away.
Speaker 2: Take care of this Junior Camaner, who could take care
Speaker 2: of this?
Speaker 1: If anybody can, go, take Frankie and Louis dumps with you,
Speaker 1: and Louis.
Speaker 2: Dumps Jesus on So on the al side, Junior Cameronaro
Speaker 2: and Jackson Holiday might both be out there. They'll probably
Speaker 2: switch between them. Actually, their their shortstop infield is Camonaro,
Speaker 2: Holiday and Marcella Mayor, which is bonkers. Maybe the most
Speaker 2: exciting guy to watch is Spencer Jones with the Yankees
Speaker 2: six foot six, two thirty two thirty five. That's a
Speaker 2: dude that's gonna get They're gonna just talk about judge judge.
Speaker 2: Judge comps he might be one of those guys that
Speaker 2: just lights it up in that game. Over on the
Speaker 2: n L side way better pitching, there's a guy Jacob
Speaker 2: Mizerowski who puts up like three thousand rpm spin numbers.
Speaker 2: I think he might he might pop a little bit
Speaker 2: when everybody sees him Dalton rushing a catcher, they're gonna
Speaker 2: want to pay attention to. I personally love Ryan Bliss
Speaker 2: of the Diamondbacks, but Jordon Jordan Lawler is going to
Speaker 2: be there, Noelvie. And then as fun as this outfield is,
Speaker 2: they've got Jackson Curio on the top prospects in baseball,
Speaker 2: Pete Crow Armstrong, but James Wood Justin Crawford is gonna
Speaker 2: be there. And that's Carl Crawford's kid, and he's got
Speaker 2: like almost thirty stolen bases this year, and he has
Speaker 2: moved into he moved in like a month and a
Speaker 2: half ago to my inside my top one hundred as
Speaker 2: far as fantasy goes, because they're just how he's hit
Speaker 2: and how he's stealing bases. So it's not a great,
Speaker 2: great pitching class of aspects that are out on this one.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, so many of these guys are already
Speaker 1: called called up. I mean all the Cleveland guys are
Speaker 1: already up. Dodger guys are up. I almost was looking
Speaker 1: at when I saw the futures grouping. It's funny because,
Speaker 1: I mean, my prospect knowledge goes to a certain depth.
Speaker 1: It's mostly the guys who were major league ready and
Speaker 1: then whatever that last draft class was in between. Sometimes
Speaker 1: I get a little shaky because there's only so much
Speaker 1: room in my brain. But the big thing that I
Speaker 1: my big takeaway from these rosters with geez look at
Speaker 1: so it's basically, I mean, so many of the guys
Speaker 1: that we would have anticipated a game like this, I
Speaker 1: mean half the Cincinnati Reds roster at this point. You know,
Speaker 1: you look around baseball and he's like, all these guys
Speaker 1: would have normally been in that game, and now they're
Speaker 1: all playing major League baseball.
Speaker 2: So it's great dred percent. You know, I hadn't even
Speaker 2: like thought about that, Like when I was looking, I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 2: this is pretty mediocre just from.
Speaker 1: This body, because they're all up.
Speaker 2: Yahkyle Harrison is probably the biggest name of any of them.
Speaker 2: With the Giants and.
Speaker 1: Holiday too, I mean Jackson Holiday people were excited about him.
Speaker 2: No, no, I mean a pitching of pitching, oh, pitching wise. Yeah,
Speaker 2: there's not a bunch of big names. A tink Hints
Speaker 2: with the Cardinals would be exciting. There's great hitters in here.
Speaker 2: I mean Jonathan class with the Mariners. That guy has
Speaker 2: got like fifty combined homers and stolen bases. He's a
Speaker 2: little bit more of a cannonball shorter guy. I mean,
Speaker 2: it's gonna look hilarious too in that outfield when it's
Speaker 2: six foot six Spencer Jones and five foot nine class
Speaker 2: A and then Drew Gilbert.
Speaker 1: Who never heard that question cannon ball. I feel like
Speaker 1: that it's.
Speaker 2: Like a short stuff that's like, yeah, yeah, exactly, You're
Speaker 2: you're one hundred percent of cannonball.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I lift it right over my head. That's fine,
Speaker 1: Probably good.
Speaker 2: I actually surprised, Like Joe's like a cannonball for sure.
Speaker 1: By the way, Tim Sawyer says, Joe was the inspiration
Speaker 1: for the show Boardwalk Empire. Fun fact, actually, when I
Speaker 1: was still acting, I was actually had an up for
Speaker 1: a role in that and went to audition for Boardwalk and.
Speaker 2: We didn't get it. I watched I loved that show
Speaker 2: and then I completely dipped out at.
Speaker 1: The in for you never watched it. It never finish.
Speaker 2: That was a great show. I just didn't finish the show.
Speaker 2: I don't even remember you know where I was in
Speaker 2: the show. I should probably go back and watch it.
Speaker 2: I would watch it if you were in it, though,
Speaker 2: that would make me really peak.
Speaker 1: Pete Crol Armstrong this is from Sabo's Goggles is a
Speaker 1: fun one too. Pete Crow Armstrong is totally a bootlegger
Speaker 1: named Generator.
Speaker 2: Pek row Armstrong. I'm gonna forget this. I believe his
Speaker 2: mom was one of the writers on Uh oh god,
Speaker 2: uh what's the Little Kid Baseball movie? I just said lot,
Speaker 2: but the Sandlot, the Sandlot? Yeah, yeah, yeah, really, yeah yeah.
Speaker 2: His his parents are both like one's an actor and
Speaker 2: one's a writer. Maybe his dad's the writer and his
Speaker 2: mom was an actress. And you're gonna get I'm telling
Speaker 2: you that. The cool thing about watching the Futures Game,
Speaker 2: You're gonna get all the stories. You're gonna get the
Speaker 2: Carl Crawford's father of Justin, You're gonna get the Pete
Speaker 2: Crow Armstrong narrative.
Speaker 1: They're all the baby for you. Great terrific exactly. NEPO
Speaker 1: Baby Central. Speaking of Nepo babies, let's do the rookie lookie, right, uh.
Speaker 1: Jordan Westberg made his debut yesterday second base for the Worlds.
Speaker 1: A nice double play turn there, had a a walk,
Speaker 1: got of RBIs. It was a full day for him,
Speaker 1: very well received to the crowd, was very excited. Did
Speaker 1: you get to see any of the uh, the debut
Speaker 1: of another young prospect here in Westbrook?
Speaker 2: We we did. I mean, Jordan Westburg was my I'm
Speaker 2: going to pick him up. I'm finding a way to
Speaker 2: make it happen. And he turned inside on a pitch,
Speaker 2: was able to bloop it out into left. There's big, strong,
Speaker 2: there's that muscle power. He just has that look and
Speaker 2: feel of a number three, number four hitter. So I
Speaker 2: really hope he gets jamming.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: The only thing I didn't pay I realized I did
Speaker 2: not pay attention to was where he played in the
Speaker 2: in the field. I need to go look now, because
Speaker 2: that was the thing everybody was focused on last night. Okay,
Speaker 2: that's what I told everybody. I thought he plays second,
Speaker 2: and they guess they keep Gunner at short, but they
Speaker 2: might experiment with Gunner back to.
Speaker 1: Third, Gunner wasn't. Yes, Mateo was a short last night,
Speaker 1: so I'm almost positive the highlight.
Speaker 2: Defensively, they really like what Mateo's done. But I've been
Speaker 2: wondering because, like, long term, they've got another prospect. You should,
Speaker 2: everyone should pay attention to Connor Norby, who's got some
Speaker 2: good power, but he's a second baseman and I don't
Speaker 2: think Mateo is long for this. Yeah, I'm looking here.
Speaker 2: Westbrook was second. Hey, you're right about that. Arius was third,
Speaker 2: Matteo was short, and Gunner wasn't even in the game.
Speaker 2: So it to be interesting when Gunner's in there, how
Speaker 2: they're going to run that because Norby would be a
Speaker 2: future second baseman, Gunner's probably their future third, and Westburg
Speaker 2: would be their shortstop. But they'll mix and match. Don't
Speaker 2: worry about it. He's gonna play. Showed really really good
Speaker 2: back to ball skills, and I think he's in a
Speaker 2: continue hitting all right.
Speaker 1: We I'm trying to figure out if indeed it was
Speaker 1: the Sandlot that this person wrote, because we're getting mixed
Speaker 1: bags here, so somebody could go google that Little big
Speaker 1: League was the Rookie of the Year, which which one
Speaker 1: was that I'm gonna look, well, let's talk about somebody
Speaker 1: who got sent down. A J. Smithshova was sent down.
Speaker 1: You got lit up for five runs, four hits, little
Speaker 1: a Little big League. I knew that person didn't write
Speaker 1: the Sandlot. I would have known his.
Speaker 2: Mom, Ashley Crowe played Billy Haywood's mind Jinny in Little
Speaker 2: Big League. So that's what it is. And then the
Speaker 2: dad was a writer, and what the hell?
Speaker 1: So you just totally welshis him to that entire peace. No,
Speaker 1: I get took a little piece of something like it's
Speaker 1: a movie about kids in baseball, and somebody that wrote
Speaker 1: it and somebody acted it. I don't know.
Speaker 2: I was still in the ballpark. I may not have
Speaker 2: hit a homer, but I mean I got a ground
Speaker 2: rule double.
Speaker 1: I think a lot in the ballpark. You were at
Speaker 1: least in the complex. Maybe what do you make of
Speaker 1: Smith Shaw for getting sent down? By the way, obviously
Speaker 1: that was a short lived potential call up anyway, But
Speaker 1: no surprise here for me. How about you? No?
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, this is a twenty year old
Speaker 2: kid that was in high school a couple of years ago,
Speaker 2: and there's some early struggles. He played well, like early
Speaker 2: in games and then gets kind of beat up second
Speaker 2: way through, so that I think this is going to
Speaker 2: lead to, probably whenever he comes back, maybe a bullpen
Speaker 2: roll the rest of the year, which probably is maybe.
Speaker 2: I mean, that's what they originally brought him up to do,
Speaker 2: and then it kind of fell apart as he got
Speaker 2: into the rotation. I think he'll be back up. I
Speaker 2: think he'll be in the bullpen, though I don't know
Speaker 2: if there's much redraft fantasy value rest of the year.
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think there's any a barring injury.
Speaker 1: I don't think there's any I'm just gonna throw that
Speaker 1: out there. Sorry, I know, I'm just I'm still the
Speaker 1: negative fellow lately, although, like I said yesterday's betting, I
Speaker 1: think I turned the corner. I think I've broken the
Speaker 1: jinks here. So feeling good, feeling strong about today's Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: I mean the Spencer Strider investment. On top of the investment,
Speaker 1: it is good.
Speaker 2: Chat's turning on me? Why have you altered? The only
Speaker 2: person I have in my corner right now is Cody.
Speaker 2: Cody's in my corner. Everyone's turning on me.
Speaker 1: Why are people turning on.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know what he says. You're
Speaker 2: the best I know Cody's my best friend. But everybody else,
Speaker 2: I think they're.
Speaker 1: Just riffing on the concept of you know, his mom
Speaker 1: was Sheryl Crowe and she married Neil Armstrong.
Speaker 2: Ashley Crow get it right, get it right, everybody I was,
Speaker 2: I was listen, I still get I'm taking the credit here.
Speaker 2: I'm taking the credit for the vicinity that I was in,
Speaker 2: regardless of what you guys want to tell.
Speaker 1: Now we're in the vicinity. We're not even in the barking.
Speaker 2: Where in the general vicinity?
Speaker 1: Okay, injuries. Matthew Boyd was removed from Monday start with
Speaker 1: an apparent injury there, so keep an eye on Matthew Boyd.
Speaker 1: Edward Rodriguez on his way back making his first minor
Speaker 1: league rehab assignment, so he should be traded any day now, folks.
Speaker 1: Make a start or two and then puff he will
Speaker 1: vanish in thin air into some other roster. I still
Speaker 1: say the Astros, that's the place where eduardogaz and.
Speaker 2: Then you and I can go and like pull those
Speaker 2: clips where it's like we were right back then, like
Speaker 2: we haven't looked good because he got hurt but we
Speaker 2: are determined that.
Speaker 1: All this was was a pause. That's all that was.
Speaker 1: Jazz Chisholm. He's been on a pause. He was activated
Speaker 1: from the ten day IL We'll see if that goes.
Speaker 1: Barron Buckson, by the way, was also out again with
Speaker 1: a back injury. Fill back big still shocking, can't believe it.
Speaker 1: Rocky's activated CJ crone. So a lot of people coming
Speaker 1: back and good news too, a lot of good positive
Speaker 1: injury news today. Brandon Law beginning that rehab assignment on Monday,
Speaker 1: so that is a good thing for him. To three
Speaker 1: up and three down from last night. Redebt Mers only
Speaker 1: crap if you held onto redet Mers. You've had some moments.
Speaker 1: Ten strikeouts, seven innings, one run ball, very good for him.
Speaker 1: Spencer Steer kind of the I think the unhralded young
Speaker 1: player on that Red scene. We all talk about McClain
Speaker 1: and Ellie and they're all exciting and all this stuff.
Speaker 1: Then there's Spencer Steer who's just getting the job done.
Speaker 1: I guess say like that. Dude's been very impressive, very
Speaker 1: quietly though.
Speaker 2: I'm actually really really glad too that you stopped here
Speaker 2: and he didn't blow by him, because I've been I've
Speaker 2: been talking Spencer Steer where we can, and I put
Speaker 2: put him in the trade video this week because we
Speaker 2: are at a point where this isn't like the pickup
Speaker 2: Steer anymore. Ninety six percent owned in CBS leagues. But
Speaker 2: you know, just a couple of things that I threw
Speaker 2: out there.
Speaker 1: I picked it up in April in my home league
Speaker 1: when Anthony Rendon got hurt the first time, and thank
Speaker 1: god I did, because that was a really good move.
Speaker 2: What's nice is he's had a little bit of a
Speaker 2: struggle coming into the month in in two forty, but
Speaker 2: he was one of these guys we were looking at
Speaker 2: rest of season projections. He has actually better rest of
Speaker 2: season projection numbers almost across the board. Outside of batting average,
Speaker 2: we're talking Homer's RBI runs. He's being put in a
Speaker 2: prime hitting situation with Ellie and McLain hitting in front
Speaker 2: of him. He's made great contact. He also doesn't strike out.
Speaker 2: It's been like under twenty percent. I love Spencer Steer.
Speaker 2: I think he's a great building block piece, and as
Speaker 2: I kind of label it in the trade video, I've
Speaker 2: got a couple guys at the front of the video
Speaker 2: that are get these guys thrown into trade. It's the
Speaker 2: trade pack. You know you're going someone else. Make sure
Speaker 2: this guy is also just thrown out by the trade.
Speaker 1: That is mindset. Also a question here from positive Grouch,
Speaker 1: which might define my personality in the last week or so.
Speaker 1: Should I drop Miguel Vargas. I say no, they're playing
Speaker 1: the Rockies this series. I mean, he's stunk, he's I know,
Speaker 1: but you can't drop a guy who's in Colorado for
Speaker 1: a couple games like that's just not a good look.
Speaker 2: Drop for Spencer steer Hard.
Speaker 1: Well, that's fine if you could do that, I appreciate that.
Speaker 2: In a New York minute deal, I said Tennis minute
Speaker 2: the other day, by the way, and I.
Speaker 1: Don't know you did not Tennessee minute.
Speaker 2: I said it on I said Tennessee minute, and I
Speaker 2: was so confident about it, and then Boggin was like,
Speaker 2: that would be a New York minute. I was like, well,
Speaker 2: what's tennis minute?
Speaker 1: Not even enter your brain. I don't understand that.
Speaker 2: There's a lot. I don't know what there's.
Speaker 1: A lot of. Please somebody write that down as another
Speaker 1: welshism too. I almost made up a welshism yesterday I
Speaker 1: can't remember who was.
Speaker 2: I have to go think of the train station. That
Speaker 2: is my brain of like what comes in and leaves out.
Speaker 2: There's not a lot of security, and there's not there's
Speaker 2: not any uh you know, active things going on.
Speaker 1: No, that's I can I can attest to that. Louis
Speaker 1: Castillo seven inning, seven strikeouts, Earn run again went over
Speaker 1: the six and a half. I don't care if I
Speaker 1: barely got them all. I got them. That's all that matters.
Speaker 1: We won yesterday. Let's go three down Josh Young and
Speaker 1: other bad performance over for four. K's just saying, just saying,
Speaker 1: watch those Josh Young shares. Just be careful here.
Speaker 2: My true benefits in like an award season.
Speaker 1: For you, for Josh Gunner Henderson does for me. Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: because I had early Gunner and early Corby and Carrol,
Speaker 1: and then I had the combo meal of the two
Speaker 1: of them. The combo meal is a big number because
Speaker 1: I thought it's a small bet, but a big number.
Speaker 1: So I'd like that one to come in. He'll michelsee
Speaker 1: big enough, big.
Speaker 2: Enough, not wait to share, I mean.
Speaker 1: Thousand or anything like that. But I will say this
Speaker 1: already on NFL. If you haven't you know, go to
Speaker 1: betting pros on the utube side of things. I've already
Speaker 1: gone through some of my favorite bets for the NFL season.
Speaker 1: Joey's made some big investments and Joey's excited. There's also
Speaker 1: a couple where you can put together in a crazy
Speaker 1: parlay of like just three major awards of the things
Speaker 1: I like, for like ten bucks, and you get a
Speaker 1: return of like thirteen thousand with the things that I like. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I know I had to do a double take on
Speaker 1: that bad point too, but it's out there. It's for you.
Speaker 1: Go take a look at it. Josh young o for
Speaker 1: four four case trout was bad oh for three three
Speaker 1: case and of course Andrew Heaney five hundred and thirty
Speaker 1: six earned run so no point no for him. Not
Speaker 1: a good day. But we turned the page from yesterday

Speaker 2: one hundred and four at night, just a pool. Yeah, actually,
Speaker 2: I got a bull. I should just go lay in there.
Speaker 2: It's a little too warm. It's like crazy bath weather.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 2: So for my prize picks today, what we're putting together,
Speaker 2: I've got Clayton Kershaw fantasy score. I'm going thirty three
Speaker 2: and a half over. Then I'm gonna take a couple hitters.
Speaker 2: I'm going back to the well on Corey Seger. He
Speaker 2: did nothing for me yesterday. He was up, was it
Speaker 2: bottom of the ninth, two outs, bases loaded, and he
Speaker 2: popped out. That's not happening today. We're getting the fantasy
Speaker 2: score seven and a half for Corey and I'm going
Speaker 2: with Jose Ramirez fantasy score eight and a half. So
Speaker 2: it's just all fantasy scores over Kershaw, Seeger, Jose Ramirez,
Speaker 2: do your best.
Speaker 1: Put them together a pictures today again. You know, we
Speaker 1: talked about this when you're going ice cold the betting market,
Speaker 1: get back to basics, the things you can control a
Speaker 1: little bit. Picture strikeouts, to me, those are always the
Speaker 1: props that you can control way more than anything on
Speaker 1: the hitting side. So I'm gonna go back so.
Speaker 2: Hard with I don't let last year. I mean, I
Speaker 2: found so many different ways to bet. This year I
Speaker 2: think I've been I don't want to. You know, tout
Speaker 2: ambling is very tough, but like my first five, first three,
Speaker 2: betting has been phenomenal.
Speaker 1: This year.
Speaker 2: I have dominated that if anyone has followed those. But man,
Speaker 2: I have fallen apart on strikeouts. I'm trying to avoid this.
Speaker 1: You have done great the strikeout kings, but this is
Speaker 1: the basics of again the things you can control a
Speaker 1: little easier. Joe Ryan five and a half. It's a
Speaker 1: small number. I know it's against the Braves. I get that.
Speaker 1: I think he can get to six. Clayton Kershaw, it's six.
Speaker 1: I don't care if it's in Colorado. He is completely
Speaker 1: overmatching the Colorado Rockies tonight. TODs Bradley five and a half.
Speaker 1: This is a small number for todsh Bradley, who's also
Speaker 1: had some big totals. It's just a matter of can
Speaker 1: he get enough at bats before can he get to
Speaker 1: six before the pitch count gets.
Speaker 2: Don't strike out as much as you think.
Speaker 1: Don't, but I know they don't. But Bradley's been very
Speaker 1: good in that regard lately, and I think it's something
Speaker 1: to take notice of. By the way, Zach Gallon has
Speaker 1: a one ERA and eight home starts this year. I
Speaker 1: think it's eight now. He's got a five ERA in
Speaker 1: his road stars this year. To me, that is not
Speaker 1: cy Young caliber.
Speaker 2: Like you.
Speaker 1: You can't be that guy on the road, and I
Speaker 1: think that matters. So he's got to figure that out.
Speaker 1: He's at home today, so you could invest my favorite
Speaker 1: things today again, stick with the same guys. Five and
Speaker 1: a half strikeouts for betting over on Betting Pros for
Speaker 1: Joe Ryan, six and a half is number for Kershaw.
Speaker 1: It's a little higher there, but I'm still gonna go
Speaker 1: over there. I think you can get to eight easily today.
Speaker 1: Oh you know what Kershaw could I say? Could be
Speaker 1: a ladder bed guy today. I'm telling you I think
Speaker 1: there could be a big one in there against Colorado.
Speaker 1: They are really rightful, I do. I'm starting to think
Speaker 1: about draft hard Port. Yeah, but you know that numbers
Speaker 1: at six and a half. It's six and a half.
Speaker 2: I saw it's seven and a half earlier and that
Speaker 2: didn't and that didn't get.
Speaker 1: This is why you go to betting Pros because you
Speaker 1: get all the pieces there. So six and a half again,
Speaker 1: you can bet the seven and a half, eight and
Speaker 1: a half, nine, You can go right up to that
Speaker 1: double digit level. I think with Kershaw tonight, Oh Tani,
Speaker 1: you might be able to do with him too, because
Speaker 1: his number is just seven and a half against the
Speaker 1: White Sox. And this is another one where Otani I
Speaker 1: think it's gonna dominate today. He could get to double digits.
Speaker 1: Whenever you see a guy at six or seven and
Speaker 1: you think there's double digit potential to me, that's when
Speaker 1: you go, all right, let's do the investment. Let's go
Speaker 1: and then Bradley. Of course again, Welsh, what do you
Speaker 1: have on the betting market side today?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I like those. It's funny you mentioned that because
Speaker 2: I didn't with Kershaw, but I very much considered Otawny
Speaker 2: as like a ladder Not that I was gonna jump
Speaker 2: into ladder bed today, but a taking the over. I
Speaker 2: was jumping into that for sure.
Speaker 1: What Walkee says, I'm a fan of Kershaw right now,
Speaker 1: but that could change in an Idaho minute.
Speaker 2: I shouldn't have said anything. I shouldn't have said anything
Speaker 2: about the Tennessee man.
Speaker 1: Oh, everybody loves a good This is a good one too,
Speaker 1: Razors on one, that's good. Whitlock at four and a
Speaker 1: half k is the over today.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's another low number.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 2: So here's where I am at today. I have got
Speaker 2: two first three team totals. I know those have been wacky,
Speaker 2: but I've enjoyed those. I'm gonna jinxit here, but I've
Speaker 2: hit all of these so far. I am going with
Speaker 2: Arizona and Tampa Bay through the first three innings team
Speaker 2: total runs two and a half under. I'm gonna take
Speaker 2: the under. I'm also going to take you talk but
Speaker 2: Garrett Whitlock the Marlins and Boston first three team total
Speaker 2: two and a half under. That one I think is
Speaker 2: that one is paying you. That one is paying you
Speaker 2: plus money. It's negative money on the Arizona Tampa Bay.
Speaker 2: I like both of those. Sandy going and getting going
Speaker 2: through the first three Whitlock I like a decent amount
Speaker 2: as well. So I'm taking essentially under three runs two
Speaker 2: and a half on both the Tampa and that Boston game.
Speaker 2: And then I am getting into the k market. So
Speaker 2: you know, God willing here. Everybody else get Gallen and
Speaker 2: Gavin Williams. So it's my ggs, Gavin and Gallen strikeouts over.
Speaker 2: I believe Gavin Williams is four and a half gallon.
Speaker 1: Gavin's a number.
Speaker 2: I like that gap half, So I'm taking both of those.
Speaker 2: I'm combining them.
Speaker 1: And Gavin's against the Royals, which is the team that
Speaker 1: strikes out. Yeah, almost more than anybody.
Speaker 2: Love the I love the Gavin Williams one, but I
Speaker 2: think it's solo juiced. And then I'm taking Gallen who's
Speaker 2: six and a half, and I'm pairing those and you're
Speaker 2: getting two to one for putting those together.
Speaker 1: So I would go up to Gavin Williams where you
Speaker 1: get a positive number. Use the little slider there most sites,
Speaker 1: so you know you can get like the the alternate
Speaker 1: pitching k props push it to five and a half.
Speaker 1: Eve can get the positive juice on there.
Speaker 2: That's and also you know with Jose, if you take Gavin,
Speaker 2: you might want to pay if you will, if you
Speaker 2: want to get into the pairing market, the smart thing
Speaker 2: is to not do that. But if you want to
Speaker 2: do that, pair it with Otani or Kershaw that might
Speaker 2: be especially the Kershaw one, that might be the number
Speaker 2: to go with.
Speaker 1: Kershaw Investment tonight, Otani investment tonight. Feeling feeling good about that? Also,
Speaker 1: feel good about So Rare a little tease there. Now,
Speaker 1: gonna go right back into it. So Rare, there's show
Speaker 1: Heltani again. Go play. It's fun, it's digital cards, it's
Speaker 1: fantasy baseball. You have your players. It's like a little
Speaker 1: dynasty league made up a little baseball cards. It's adorable,
Speaker 1: it's fun. Go try it. Razor is crushing it right now.
Speaker 1: I saw some of his stats on there fantasybros dot
Speaker 1: Com slash Leading off League again. You can sign up
Speaker 1: for free for so rare Fantasypros dot Com Slash collect
Speaker 1: Go to that link. Check it out. It is super fun.
Speaker 1: Wells from the DFS side today, you got a lot
Speaker 1: of our Zach Gallon at home is ten k. That's
Speaker 1: a good one if you want to be different, low
Speaker 1: roster percentage, same price. Abbot is ten point two for
Speaker 1: the Reds, Joe Ryan ten point three and a negative potential.
Speaker 1: Look against the Braves. I think he'll be low rostered,
Speaker 1: so Gallon and cash makes sense. But if you're looking
Speaker 1: for tournaments tonight, Abbot Ryan, of course, if you can
Speaker 1: go for another three hundred dollars and get Clayton Kershaw,
Speaker 1: which is what I want to do, or another couple
Speaker 1: hundred dollars and get Showyotani, I would fade away from
Speaker 1: fran Verdaladez. He's at eleven to two. That's a high number.
Speaker 1: But then if you want to slide the scale all
Speaker 1: the way down. Gavin Williams at eight point two, get
Speaker 1: all the hitting. See you can get the six k's
Speaker 1: and the win from him. I think it can. So
Speaker 1: I know you're gonna get it from Otani and Kershaw
Speaker 1: if they have outstanding games, then those are the teams
Speaker 1: that are going to really cash. But if you go
Speaker 1: to Gavin Williams to get that, and you get a
Speaker 1: big offensive load up from either Cincinnati, Cleveland, the Dodgers,
Speaker 1: you want to go in like Mooki and Freeman. You
Speaker 1: want to do that in Colorado. You gotta get Gavin
Speaker 1: Williams to do that today. Some cheap guys Bo Naylor
Speaker 1: are two point two again, Miguel vard Is two point six.
Speaker 1: I know it's crazy, but it's in Colorado. We could
Speaker 1: try Ty France at two point nine two. I'm going
Speaker 1: with Jose Ramirez for my home run call today. And
Speaker 1: speaking of home run calls, somebody's on the board. Look
Speaker 1: at that at twenty two. So proud, We're so proud
Speaker 1: of the Welsh razor even more proud at twenty nine.
Speaker 1: Tater at twenty eight. Look at all of you, so
Speaker 1: look at that, So proud of everybody, Wesh, what's your
Speaker 1: home run call today?
Speaker 2: It's my number two. Twenty two is maneuver by the way,
Speaker 2: I'm want to point something out. Okay, Tennessee minute sounds
Speaker 2: very esthetically pleasing. It sounds better than New York its. Yeah, well, okay,
Speaker 2: it might be a bourbon type.
Speaker 1: I think a Tennessee minute takes a long time. I
Speaker 1: think it takes like an hour and a half.
Speaker 2: A Tennessee minute sounds, but what's the context?
Speaker 1: Unit, No, it doesn't. It doesn't work at all.
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 1: It takes a Tennessee minute for us to understand what's
Speaker 1: coming out of your mouth. Sometimes that's that that is.
Speaker 2: Part of the problem. I mean it's used in the
Speaker 2: same context as a New York minute. It just sounds
Speaker 2: a little bit better. It's esthetically pleasing. So just understand
Speaker 2: my logic here, which is very not understandable. I'm going
Speaker 2: with Schwarberfest today. We are going to the wah Wah
Speaker 2: and we're going with Kyle Schwarb up against Jamison taiankas
Speaker 2: Tai on Stanks, a little small ballpark in Chicago. Kyle Schwarber,
Speaker 2: I think you might hit two today. Just for you
Speaker 2: Joey get a hit two and I'm gonna stay on
Speaker 2: that board because I love being on that board.
Speaker 1: Who gied a coke for Schwarberfest. Let's go go Phillies.
Speaker 1: They're feeling good. They're beating the pants off the Mets
Speaker 1: right now, last couple of days, that's for sure. But
Speaker 1: also don't forget if you want to make home run calls.
Speaker 1: July is a new month. If you haven't tried it,
Speaker 1: you're gonna win a prize for the month of July.
