Speaker 1: Nobody's perfect. Let's play ball. Welcome in everybody to Fantasy Pros.
Speaker 1: This is leading off. It is me, Joey b Joe Pisavia.
Speaker 1: That of course is the Welsh, and it's you, and
Speaker 1: we're talking all things baseball today and what a fun
Speaker 1: day of baseball. It was all day baseball. I have
Speaker 1: just gotten back to the house after a nice trip
Speaker 1: to Cole's Welsh. You have kids, you probably know what
Speaker 1: that's all about. I'm trying to create a world where
Speaker 1: I can just use Cohle's cash. You know, everyone's doing crypto.
Speaker 1: I'm not doing crypto. I'm just gonna use Cole's cash.
Speaker 1: That's gonna be my thing. But Coles is not the
Speaker 1: sponsor of the Today Show. No no, And it's Bet MGM,
Speaker 1: and of course we're gonna talk about prop bets later
Speaker 1: in the show DFS. We're gonna talk fantasy wet's talk
Speaker 1: everything Welsh. You were not here yesterday. You took a
Speaker 1: big back victory lap on Tuesday, and Byron Buckson hasn't
Speaker 1: gotten a hit since, so I just want to check
Speaker 1: in and see how you're doing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, no, I know I got trolled. According to
Speaker 2: the Internet, Buckson is done and I've ruined him because
Speaker 2: you know, he just stepped into like a perfect game.
Speaker 2: So apologies, sorry about that, but yeah, well we'll do better.
Speaker 2: We'll do better.
Speaker 1: It'll do better. Speaking of perfect games, yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: we'll get to that in a second. Let's just start
Speaker 1: with that. Clayton Kershaw was pulled with a perfect game
Speaker 1: going yesterday. And look, the Dodgers have a certain expectation, right,
Speaker 1: I mean they've put all this money in. It's World
Speaker 1: Series or bust. Clayton Kershaw has had a hard time
Speaker 1: staying healthy these last few years. I totally understand this.
Speaker 1: I have no problem with this. Who cares about his
Speaker 1: individual accomplishments. It's supposed to be a team game at
Speaker 1: this point, right. It's not like Clayton Kershaw hasn't had
Speaker 1: a lot of individual accomplishments. He's won Cy Young's he
Speaker 1: is also a World Series champion now, right, he has
Speaker 1: had all these other accolades he's had throughout his career. Yes,
Speaker 1: it would have been nice to have a perfect game.
Speaker 1: Cost As a met fan, I recall Johan Santana having
Speaker 1: that Met No hitter that we all waited for our
Speaker 1: entire lives and that we finally got and it was
Speaker 1: the last time we saw good Johan Santana. So as
Speaker 1: far as I'm concerned, Welsh, I got no issue with this,
Speaker 1: but I can't wait to hear what you have to say.
Speaker 1: And I know the Peanuts and the Cracker Jacks have
Speaker 1: lots of feelings about that as well. And Wonkeye Penguin
Speaker 1: is not happy this morning.
Speaker 2: I hate it. I hated the Yeah, I'm a Dimebags fan.
Speaker 2: Even the Padres pulling you, Darvish, I hated it, them
Speaker 2: pulling Shamanaya. I hated it. This one million times worse.
Speaker 2: You're one hundred percent right, Like was it the right
Speaker 2: like long contextual team move? Probably? Kershaw even said, you
Speaker 2: know that it was the right time. Hate it. Hate
Speaker 2: being pulled like the Darvish one I got, he walked
Speaker 2: for he was getting hit hard a little bit. You
Speaker 2: are six outs from a perfect game. That this is
Speaker 2: a team game, but that accomplishment alone it stands the
Speaker 2: test time. Twenty three is it? I think it's twenty
Speaker 2: three perfect games in the history of this game. I
Speaker 2: would put him back out there. I found Dave Roberts.
Speaker 2: You go and you talk with him. Yeah, maybe it's
Speaker 2: the right time. Just throw curveballs. You give up one hit,
Speaker 2: you give up one walk, take him out. Wasn't a
Speaker 2: no hitter, it was a perfect game. I think I
Speaker 2: forgot between COVID years, the excitement of just oh, we're
Speaker 2: back last year and then the lockout. I think I
Speaker 2: forgot how much I hate April baseball. April baseball is
Speaker 2: the worst, I tweeted about last night Fantasy Baseball Twitter.
Speaker 2: It's the worst place on the planet. Everybody's horrible baseball itself.
Speaker 2: Guys are getting pulled. They've got crazy pitch limits, no
Speaker 2: no hitters, no perfect games. It sucks. Let's get to
Speaker 2: may I'm sick of.
Speaker 1: It all right, Let's get to Mayor first. Because Mike
Speaker 1: Mayer already trolling me. I was ready for a classic
Speaker 1: Joey p rant about this has Joe gone soft? No,
Speaker 1: I haven't gone soft. I am on the other end,
Speaker 1: which is this is an individual accomplishment. It's his first
Speaker 1: It's literally like its first two stars, first start of
Speaker 1: the year.
Speaker 2: Too, before we do a game. Joe, But who cares? Who?
Speaker 2: Everybody cares? He should care?
Speaker 1: But why shouldn't they care more about what October they up.
Speaker 2: By seven, like, oh my god, does he give up
Speaker 2: a run? Who cares if he gives up a run?
Speaker 2: Let him go eighty pitches for seventy five pitch, whatever
Speaker 2: the hell it was for Clayton Kershoff does some curveballs,
Speaker 2: don't thirty fastball.
Speaker 1: Ever was slated to throw today. Look, this is here's
Speaker 1: the thing, you guys, And I'm a you, not you
Speaker 1: personally Welsh, but the the you guys out there in
Speaker 1: baseball who have created this heavy specialization, this where we
Speaker 1: watch every pitch. This is what you've created. This is yours.
Speaker 2: Now you have to own it.
Speaker 1: And now that you've created this world of specialization in
Speaker 1: baseball where it's specializations are the nth degree of everything,
Speaker 1: and everything is hyper focused and hyper monitored. And nobody
Speaker 1: throws one hundred and twenty pitches anymore. No one just says, yeah,
Speaker 1: I feel good today, I'm gonna go out there. I
Speaker 1: can throw one hundred fifty pitches because I just feel good.
Speaker 1: We've created that world, and Kershaw is a very important piece.
Speaker 1: That third spot in rotation is crucial for the Dodgers.
Speaker 1: It's crucial for the Dodgers because that's the guy that
Speaker 1: turns that rotation over it. You know, whenever you have
Speaker 1: a rotation of the five guys, you have typically those
Speaker 1: one or two guys at the top you feel good about,
Speaker 1: and everybody has a four or five guys you don't
Speaker 1: feel good about. It's the third guy who makes you
Speaker 1: above five hundred team. And if Clayton Kershaw isn't there
Speaker 1: pitching meaningful baseball in August and September for the Dodgers,
Speaker 1: it's a problem. And to burn him out in the
Speaker 1: first start or two in a game because it's a
Speaker 1: perfect game potentially, I have no problem with this. So yeah,
Speaker 1: Joey P's on a rant today because if I'm the Dodgers,
Speaker 1: I care about one thing, it's the World Series because
Speaker 1: I've invested way too much and Clinton Kershaw has come
Speaker 1: back and Clayton Kershaw has not pitched a lot of
Speaker 1: innings in the last few years, and Clayton Kershaw almost
Speaker 1: was talking about retiring. So yeah, it would have been
Speaker 1: a nice moment what I pushed him past eighty. Yeah,
Speaker 1: probably I would have give him another inning. But come on,
Speaker 1: you have to own this. Major League Baseball and New
Speaker 1: wave major League Baseball own this. This is your creation.
Speaker 1: It reminds me about it. It's your fault.
Speaker 2: I just want to point it reminds me of like
Speaker 2: what basketball is doing. Look it is I agree, thank you.
Speaker 2: You know what. Me and Mike we're coming together. We
Speaker 2: were enemies at the beginning because of Ryan Mountcastle and
Speaker 2: Byron Bocktion. We're together again. We are going to team
Speaker 2: up to do a show. But you want to know what,
Speaker 2: just give.
Speaker 1: It a week.
Speaker 2: Let me throw this out though. It's like I don't
Speaker 2: have anybody who pays attention to basketball. It's like what
Speaker 2: the NBA is doing. The own commissioner's office has admitted
Speaker 2: that their star players are not playing as many games
Speaker 2: as they should and they're waiting until the postseason. This
Speaker 2: league is so damn long, one hundred and sixty two
Speaker 2: games that all they do is talk about innings limits
Speaker 2: and arms and rest and blah blah blah. That's why
Speaker 2: this sucks. This is why April is lame. It's like
Speaker 2: a It's just an extended version of the training. Guys,
Speaker 2: go four innings.
Speaker 1: Welsh, you nailed it. The problem is the regular season
Speaker 1: is too long. But on top of which we have
Speaker 1: also we have the best medicals, the best science, the
Speaker 1: best workout regimens, the best of everything. But people pitch
Speaker 1: less explain that to me. You can't. You can't explain
Speaker 1: it to way. The only way you can explain it
Speaker 1: away is that we have youth baseball that's ruining arms
Speaker 1: and ruining people physically before they get to the major
Speaker 1: league baseball level. That is the only argument. And look,
Speaker 1: I see Steve out here, and Steve says I'm one
Speaker 1: hundred percent wrong, and that's cool. This is a good
Speaker 1: discussion here with the penis and the crack of jacks.
Speaker 1: This is why you watch Live every day so you
Speaker 1: can get in this discussion to yell at me and
Speaker 1: put angry emojis. I believe, though, I.
Speaker 2: Want to point out I'm surprised that baseball is you know,
Speaker 2: you want to get back into the is joking aside,
Speaker 2: where Mike was like, hey is joke getting soft? Baseball
Speaker 2: is so soft right now. I'm surprised benches didn't clear
Speaker 2: in New York because Vlad hit his third homer and
Speaker 2: they're like, that's not fair. He's already hit two, does
Speaker 2: he really need another one. I'm surprised benches didn't clear
Speaker 2: and there's suspensions today and there's arguments on all the
Speaker 2: talking head shows because should Vladimir Grill really hit three
Speaker 2: home runs in a given day. I don't know if
Speaker 2: that is fair competition to everybody when they were leading.
Speaker 2: Blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: April sucks. April baseball is the worst.
Speaker 1: Look. I'm all for giving him a little bit of
Speaker 1: longer leash because it's a perfect game. I want. Look,
Speaker 1: let me be clear, I want him to go out
Speaker 1: there and pitch a perfect game. However, I am telling
Speaker 1: you right, just like I want Byron Bucks to be healthy,
Speaker 1: I want a lot of things. I want to grow
Speaker 1: hairback on my head. Certain things aren't happening. You're the Dodgers.
Speaker 1: You have just spent a boatload of money on bringing
Speaker 1: Kershaw back, on Freddie Freeman, on all Mookie bets, and.
Speaker 2: Extending every single week and just paying him and just
Speaker 2: extending money there.
Speaker 1: Yep, you have a lot of money going around. You
Speaker 1: cannot afford, literally to have Clayton Kershall get hurt this
Speaker 1: early in a season. You can't do it. You just
Speaker 1: can't do it if you're the Dodger. So I get it.
Speaker 1: I'm mad about it. Too, everybody, but I have accepted this.
Speaker 1: Y'all haven't accepted it yet. This is baseball now, so
Speaker 1: you just got accepted. And and let me also attached
Speaker 1: to this. I've been sitting for years. It's not that
Speaker 1: I want to get rid of the one sixty two.
Speaker 1: I just want to manage it differently. On one hundred
Speaker 1: game regular season and then a sixty game playoffs into
Speaker 1: a World series. That's what I want. I want round
Speaker 1: robin tournament kind of style thing, because everybody loves a
Speaker 1: good baseball tournament. Let's talk about other things. By Clayton Kersha. Otherwise,
Speaker 1: a whole half hour will begin.
Speaker 2: And by the way, your tournament as long as guys
Speaker 2: are on second, as long as there's a guy in
Speaker 2: second the start of every end. Just make sure that happens.
Speaker 1: And I want fruit snacks and available and fruit roll
Speaker 1: ups and orange slices at all times. That would be great.
Speaker 1: I've been saying this for years. And in July you
Speaker 1: have the All Star Game. After the All Star Game, August,
Speaker 1: kids are off from school, everyone's staying up late. Football
Speaker 1: hasn't started yet. A baseball tournament starting in August would
Speaker 1: be the hottest thing. And from a wagering standpoint, Welsh,
Speaker 1: do you imagine how much money they'd be making on
Speaker 1: it. It'd be amazing.
Speaker 2: We don't have time for this show to do that,
Speaker 2: because I got lots of opinions why it's right and
Speaker 2: wrong and what they'd have to do, But it would
Speaker 2: it could theoretically be great, but yeah, we would have
Speaker 2: to be doing an hour leadoff rapid fire.
Speaker 1: Vladimircgrear hit three home runs yesterday. As you mentioned, it's amazing.
Speaker 1: A couple of people called him congrat dulations for those
Speaker 1: who did unfair Luis Robert Homers again, he's got a
Speaker 1: ton of stolen bases to start the year. That thirty
Speaker 1: thirty bold predictions look at pretty good, Welsh. Good. My
Speaker 1: guy p Alonzo goes deep. So I'm finally on the
Speaker 1: board after being dry here for a couple of days.
Speaker 1: Logan Web eight strong innings and then we have some
Speaker 1: injuries MRI for the side of Seaskaernandez. My guess is
Speaker 1: gonna be an old bleaku. I don't think I an
Speaker 1: update on that yet. John means exit the start with
Speaker 1: left four. I'm tart tightness shocker. Bryce Harper finally went
Speaker 1: yard and Torkosen first major league home run, so good
Speaker 1: for him. The Daily Kwan Today, here we go. We
Speaker 1: have a new segment. Welsh saw yesterday The Daily Kwan.
Speaker 1: Steven Kwan's reach based nineteen times in the guardians first
Speaker 1: six games, tied for the fourthmost by any player his
Speaker 1: first six games since nineteen oh one. The only other
Speaker 1: ones now he's trailing Brady Anderson in nineteen ninety seven,
Speaker 1: with twenty, Von Hayes with twenty Von Hayes in nineteen
Speaker 1: eighty nine, and Mel Ott in nineteen twenty. There you go,
Speaker 1: Stephen Kwan, your thoughts on the Kwan.
Speaker 2: I'm in April. Baseball is the worst, is anointed. You
Speaker 2: know what I'm gonna tell you this, I'm sure gonna
Speaker 2: miss in May when all of our focus isn't on
Speaker 2: Stephen Kwan and it's on to the next thing. He
Speaker 2: is fantastic. The contact he makes is phenomenal. He's not
Speaker 2: like he's a very different player than the players we've
Speaker 2: gotten the past that get really hot. But Stephen Kwan mania,
Speaker 2: it is, it's something else. It is.
Speaker 1: I miss Von Hayes, especially in that powder blue Phillies uniform.
Speaker 1: Got it. He was cool all right, let's get to
Speaker 1: the stat heroes. Corbyn Burns was our pick yesterday on
Speaker 1: the show over on the K Prop. Hope you listened
Speaker 1: because he struck out eight guys. We're just we're literally
Speaker 1: making you money every day. I mean, it's just so easy.
Speaker 1: I hope you're doing it, and I hope you are
Speaker 1: already logged into bed MGM with leading off because if
Speaker 1: you've been doing everything that we've said the last week
Speaker 1: now and a half, you're making money. You are definitely
Speaker 1: on the plus side because we are crushing these K
Speaker 1: props right now. Josiah Gray five kse five innings, no
Speaker 1: earned logan web with a good start. We mentioned earlier
Speaker 1: Frankie Montas trying to get his way out. We talked
Speaker 1: about him in DFS. That was a guy to start yesterday.
Speaker 1: Sean Manaia six k's the loss of the Giants. Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: Schurezer was sharp, made one mistake. He was pissed about it.
Speaker 1: My god, Max schures are so intense. It's his second
Speaker 1: start and he's already like breaking bats in the dugout.
Speaker 1: I love this guy.
Speaker 2: I think they would have pulled Max if he was
Speaker 2: seven perfect. You think he would have got pulled.
Speaker 1: Max Scherzer will punch you in the face if you
Speaker 1: try to take exact claim. But mac Schurzer also doesn't
Speaker 1: have a problem pitching one hundred innings every year. Mac
Speaker 1: Shuz has been one of the most durable pitchers in
Speaker 1: the history of our game in the last twenty five years.
Speaker 1: Clayton Kershaw hasn't been just saying he hasn't been. So
Speaker 1: you know what you're getting into here, folks, I'm sorry, Like,
Speaker 1: come on, Jose Ramirez three for four a great game
Speaker 1: for him through six games? Uses your boy? You love
Speaker 1: Jose Ramirez coming into this year? Uh, three dingers for
Speaker 1: eighty batting average fourteen ribbies, Well what kind of a
Speaker 1: and you and you were the only person I heard
Speaker 1: say you can argue he's the number one overall pick.
Speaker 1: And let me tell you right now, you're looking pretty smart.
Speaker 2: He looks for I was going through like the stats,
Speaker 2: and you know, just like every couple you know, have
Speaker 2: a couple of days during the week, you go and
Speaker 2: you're just like updating yourself. And I went and looked
Speaker 2: and like the discrepancy of RBI for him is something else.
Speaker 2: He started like the first couple of games he is
Speaker 2: seeing it, and what is gonna help those RBI totals.
Speaker 2: By the way, look out for him to be up
Speaker 2: there is when you have Miles Straw, who's leading the
Speaker 2: league in stolen bases, I believe. I think he's up
Speaker 2: to four leading off. Stephen Kwant hitting two. You gotta
Speaker 2: have guys on base every single opportunity.
Speaker 1: All he has to Owen Miller. Come from Owen Miller
Speaker 1: with two dingers yesterday, Yeah, getting a former.
Speaker 2: Uh oh what was the former Padre prospect?
Speaker 1: Ax? Yeah, Miles Straw four for five yesterday with a
Speaker 1: steel also, uh. Cabrian Hayes four for four, A nice
Speaker 1: day for him. Kiki had a good day. Tim Anderson
Speaker 1: that good day. Both went yard. Cody Bellinger siding wesh
Speaker 1: only now hitting two twenty two after a dinger two
Speaker 1: for four. He's back, baby, right, he is back.
Speaker 2: You might be back. You know what I did say.
Speaker 2: We just released in This League Fantasy Baseball podcast almost
Speaker 2: two hours of Pogman and I going but one thing
Speaker 2: I said that Trillium. We had a lot of debates
Speaker 2: Cody Bellinger. We had a Stephen Quand debate Bellinger debate.
Speaker 2: The thing that I want to see with Bellinger, and
Speaker 2: I think this is important. I want to see now
Speaker 2: what he does with confidence. That guy has not had
Speaker 2: confidence for like three years. He has not had great
Speaker 2: He just had that first breakout game after an entire
Speaker 2: spring and beginning of the year of just garbage. I
Speaker 2: would love to see what he can possibly do with
Speaker 2: a little bit of confidence. Jack is also doing that
Speaker 2: right there, Joe, Because Jack does parody songs, and he
Speaker 2: did a Jacob de Grom parody song to end our show.
Speaker 2: That is phenomenal.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to listen to that. Yeah, that's it's
Speaker 1: gonna be my when I'm cleaning the house for Easter tomorrow.
Speaker 2: Let's he assumed right to the end, but he did.
Speaker 2: But confidence with Cody Bankers, see what he does over
Speaker 2: the next week. See what he does over the next
Speaker 2: week is see if that can carry over. Otherwise, you know,
Speaker 2: it's still a.
Speaker 1: Disaster and the penis and the cracker Jacks. If I misspoke,
Speaker 1: what I meant to say was Scherzer throws two hundred
Speaker 1: innings most years, not one hundred like Clayton Kershaw. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's that's just where we are, my god, all right,
Speaker 1: stat zero's I'm not gonna spend too much time. I
Speaker 1: will take the on Robby Ray. I like Robby Ray. Yes, Ray,
Speaker 1: it's the one thing. I will take the l on
Speaker 1: hits to the White Sox. Filo's down a little concerning
Speaker 1: White Sox are a good lineup. Lodolo in his major
Speaker 1: league debut four K's seven hits. But again, I've been
Speaker 1: struck out whole time.
Speaker 2: He's auto. I think it's a cy Young because he
Speaker 2: struck out Quan.
Speaker 1: You know, hero, another Aaron Nola disappointment? What else is
Speaker 1: new to another guy? I threw Arnola back into the pile.
Speaker 1: I had him for thirty eight dollars in a keeper league, Like,
Speaker 1: I can't stand this guy anymore. I can't do it.
Speaker 1: Hitters Kyle Tucker over five, for Animal over five, Chris Taylor,
Speaker 1: oh for five, Wander Franco over Evans, Oh my god,
Speaker 1: and Julio Rodriguez O for four three more strikeouts. He's
Speaker 1: at zero fifty six right now with ten k's I'm
Speaker 1: well worried here, Welsh, I'm a.
Speaker 2: Yep, I'm a little worried. Kyle Lewis just watch for this.
Speaker 2: But Kyle Lewis is out here in Arizona right now,
Speaker 2: just trying to get himself back going extended spring training
Speaker 2: started out here and he's gonna probably get into a
Speaker 2: game or two. Just wonder when he's healthy. If those
Speaker 2: guys haven't got and going, what's gonna happen? You know,
Speaker 2: Kelnick and Julio seem like they might be on the
Speaker 2: chopping block. Yeah, I have a debate by the way,
Speaker 2: can I I know, like we gotta go and everything,
Speaker 2: Can I guess you a quick debate?
Speaker 1: We did all We're gonna go along today because my
Speaker 1: Clayton Kershaw rant and that's okay. Some days we're gonna
Speaker 1: go a little five minutes over, but you know, I know,
Speaker 1: I know they like us to keep it to a
Speaker 1: half hour, but some days there's a lot right there.
Speaker 1: But it's important discussion to have.
Speaker 2: The show was again I'm not trying to like go
Speaker 2: crazy about pluging the Nail Show, but we were doing
Speaker 2: a bunch of debates and one of the a lot
Speaker 2: of these guys, like I said, we had a quand
Speaker 2: a bellangery debate. But one of the debates we really
Speaker 2: kind of brushed by due to time because unlike thirty
Speaker 2: minutes we were going like two hours almost was Aaron
Speaker 2: Nola versus Clayton Kershaw. Who would you rather have a
Speaker 2: rest of season on recency bias to both players? Both
Speaker 2: one struggle one incredible I got take.
Speaker 1: My answer is in season long road to I'll take
Speaker 1: the quality of Kershaw. But in head to head leagues
Speaker 1: where I play a lot of it's close, I'd probably
Speaker 1: still take Kershaw anyway, because I belie even the Dodgers
Speaker 1: me too. But my problem is, I know Nola's gold
Speaker 1: of probably at the end of the day make more starts,
Speaker 1: but I'm probably gonna go Kershaw on both the rod
Speaker 1: to ones and easy ones.
Speaker 2: Well, what's interesting about that is, you know, from a
Speaker 2: draft perception, Aaron Nolan Clayton Kershaw were being taken like
Speaker 2: literally worlds apart. Like let's say Nola was fifty Kershaw
Speaker 2: was like one ten or one twenty. That poll, I
Speaker 2: don't know if it it ended overnight or whatever, it
Speaker 2: was at fifty percent. So fifty percent on recency bias
Speaker 2: was on Kershaw versus Nola, which I thought was really
Speaker 2: interesting because Bogman thought, well, this is going to probably
Speaker 2: be sixty sixty five percent Nola. This is the more
Speaker 2: high valued player in it's early in the year. Nope,
Speaker 2: Clayton Kershaw already at fifty percent after those seven perfect All.
Speaker 1: Right, let's get to the home run calls. Bran Cox
Speaker 1: is called four home runs in seven days, well done,
Speaker 1: eleven other peanuts and cracker Jacks got on the board.

Speaker 1: the is the spot for him in terms of projectability
Speaker 1: for total bases. By the way, the Walker Bueller on
Speaker 1: the K prop, well, you get even money on that
Speaker 1: right now on DK. Let's go, Sho fan duel even
Speaker 1: money on DK right right, shoey Otani is at six
Speaker 1: and a half it's high, but he is going against
Speaker 1: the Texas Rangers. They have a lot of strikeouts in
Speaker 1: that lineup. Seven point three is a projection. This one's
Speaker 1: a little bit more tenuous, but I still like it.
Speaker 2: And then twenty pitches, so just play the even money.
Speaker 2: He won't he won't be able to get money here.
Speaker 2: Those big strikeouts easy money.
Speaker 1: Welsh flat on DK one point five total bases. He's
Speaker 1: projected for two point three tonight against Severarina. How about that?
Speaker 2: Oh, I like that one. You've picked a lot of
Speaker 2: the ones. I like the Luis Robert one. That would
Speaker 2: be when I would want to play. I'm also kind
Speaker 2: of interested in both total base markers for these are
Speaker 2: a little bit lower guy, but Sea Suzuki and CJ Cron,
Speaker 2: you know, playing in Colorado. Give me some total base
Speaker 2: overs both at one and a half. Both they're close
Speaker 2: to you. It's like minus one ten, minus one fifteen.
Speaker 2: I feel like that's a game that I would target.
Speaker 2: Also kind of interested in max months the total bases.
Speaker 2: It's pretty juice s up on MGM, but it is
Speaker 2: minus one sixty one and that's the best place that
Speaker 2: you can find. Oh, you know what, I'm sorry it's
Speaker 2: over half of a total base, so that's why it's
Speaker 2: jus s up. I think that is a really solid
Speaker 2: play as well. And Suzuki was minus one fifteen, like
Speaker 2: I said, projected at two and a half according to
Speaker 2: Betting Pros, which you guys can go and check out
Speaker 2: the Betting Pros MLB prop cheat sheet, which I highly
Speaker 2: suggest you do. Leaves it all out, gives you projections.
Speaker 2: It's a fun thing to going to get you going,
Speaker 2: and uh, we're it's a good table starter for any
Speaker 2: of your bets.
Speaker 1: One hundred percent. The proper cheat sheet on Betting Pros
Speaker 1: is just like that's literally what we do. I go
Speaker 1: through them, Welsh goes through, then we pick out the
Speaker 1: best ones. We see the projections, the different thing listed
Speaker 1: for you. For god's sakes, it's literally just like, here,
Speaker 1: go make yourself some money, and please use a little
Speaker 1: code leading off when you make that money so they
Speaker 1: know that we sent you. And uh, yeah, you know
Speaker 1: what I see the somebody that Peanuts and Crackerjack says,
Speaker 1: boys are testy today, we are.
Speaker 2: We're fired up, you know what I no I am though,
Speaker 2: this is this is a little bit more real. Mean
Speaker 2: you guys, are gonna progressively get a little bit more me.
Speaker 2: I'm definitely coming off of a test.
Speaker 1: Look, somebody loves you.
Speaker 2: Oh you know what. I love bluster, thank you, thanks,
Speaker 2: love to be love. I got a fan.
Speaker 1: You know why they love you because yesterday was Mayor
Speaker 1: and you did such a huge upgrade.
Speaker 2: Oh it's perspective.
Speaker 1: They're just like, oh, they're like, all right, maybe Walsh
Speaker 1: isn't so bad after we spend some time with Mayor
Speaker 1: yesterday for a whole half hour. So I kid, Mayor,
Speaker 1: I love you. Let's get to some daily fantasy. This
Speaker 1: little dfs here uh DK starting pictures. You got Atani
Speaker 1: at seven to nine, a little underpriced, I think personally,
Speaker 1: Muscrove at seven six, Charlie Morton and nine three Walker
Speaker 1: Biller at nine seven. This is easy. You got Morton
Speaker 1: and Musker of going against each other. So what you
Speaker 1: can do is just kind of you know, stay in
Speaker 1: that game if you want. It's doable because Muscove is
Speaker 1: so cheap, and Mike Comparrison I always love doing this.
Speaker 1: Muscove a seven point six on Fandoy's ten point three.
Speaker 1: When you see that big price variance jump in somewhere
Speaker 1: and just give it a shot. But Muscrove specifically on DK,
Speaker 1: he's a really underpriced guy against the Braves. It's a
Speaker 1: tournament play because he is going against Morton and the Braves,
Speaker 1: but at the same time it's a good play. Walker
Speaker 1: Buehler is the shock tonight. It's good Chuck take it.
Speaker 1: Kyle Gibson on the FanDuel side, you can get him
Speaker 1: in al contra. Those games are added to that mainslet
Speaker 1: on FanDuel again, DK and Fandel really wacky with how
Speaker 1: they're laying out the slates so far this year. Otani's
Speaker 1: very expensive ten point eight, Musgrove ten point three. I
Speaker 1: mentioned Morton's the cheaper one. So on Fandel, if you
Speaker 1: want the other side of this game, take Morton and
Speaker 1: then on DK go put Muskrove in there. Maybe pair
Speaker 1: him with Walker Bueller the stacks of Tonight. I like Colorado,
Speaker 1: I like the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, and I
Speaker 1: think Detroit's actually sneaky on FanDuel specifically, only because FanDuel,
Speaker 1: the pricing of everybody in that lineup on the Tiger
Speaker 1: side is really I mean a Kilbado two point two,
Speaker 1: Torkosen two point two, Heimer Candelario two point six. You
Speaker 1: can really get into that Tiger lineup and then get
Speaker 1: whatever the hell else you want. Other FanDuel lineup builders
Speaker 1: Cody Bellinger two seven since he's red hot, Brendan Rodgers
Speaker 1: at three, Clint Frasier at two point nine, and then
Speaker 1: Michael Franco two five. Also Brendan Marsh two four on
Speaker 1: DK same thing, Bellinger two seven, Connor Joe three to four,
Speaker 1: Rydald Gritchick three to two. So lots of good pricing
Speaker 1: here on the Colorado guys tonight. Love that Colorado stack
Speaker 1: a Kilbado three point eight, Bobby Witt two point five.
Speaker 1: I'm still gonna keep going to the Bobby Wit. Michael
Speaker 1: Taylor two point four, good matchup for him, and then
Speaker 1: Brandon Marsh at three point two. Let's get to the
Speaker 1: home run calls Welsh, I feel really good about mine today.
Speaker 1: I think getting that seris first one on the board
Speaker 1: is what you need to shake the dust off. So
Speaker 1: I'm going with Juan Soto, the one one in my heart.
Speaker 1: So I saw a couple other people took Sodo tonight two,
Speaker 1: so we'll be living and dying together. Wells, who are
Speaker 1: you taking for your home run call, who's going yard?
Speaker 2: Oh, there's so many decisions, so many choices. I am
Speaker 2: you know, I think I was because I was off yesterday.
Speaker 2: I would have picked this guy and he Welsh, thank you.
Speaker 2: I probably would have picked this guy. I'm gonna go
Speaker 2: back to the well and I'm gonna go back to
Speaker 2: Aaron Judge. Aaron Judge got a pretty good career versus
Speaker 2: Kevin Gossman. I think hitting over four hundreds, got a
Speaker 2: couple of bombs, and uh, maybe he's gonna put a
Speaker 2: couple couple on the board tonight. I'm gonna go with
Speaker 2: Aaron Judge.
Speaker 1: All right, And what does Mike Mayor have to say?
Speaker 1: These are my people, Joe. They'll never choose Welsh over me.
Speaker 1: I don't know about that. They are your people. But
Speaker 1: you know, it's tough. It's very fickle sometimes at the top,
Speaker 1: it's it's tough to be the leader sides.
Speaker 2: It'll be a fantasy pro civil war at some point
Speaker 2: will happen.
Speaker 1: Here we go and then this wouldn't take long. I
Speaker 1: want this show to be an hour from the Red Bee.
Speaker 1: I liked it. Welsh is himself. If you knew him personally,
Speaker 1: you wouldn't like it. Uh, no, shame in his game.
Speaker 1: I want this show for an hour, sign a petition
Speaker 1: beingas and cracker Jacks. If so, I will get Peyton
Speaker 1: Cole's cash. As I said earlier, Oh that.
Speaker 2: Will be the bonus in Coals cash.
Speaker 1: I just bought my kids, I don't know, ten shirts,
Speaker 1: four dresses, and between gift cards and coupons, we spent
Speaker 1: fifty dollars and they gave me thirty dollars in Coals cash.
Speaker 1: You know, really, I basically walked out. I stole things
Speaker 1: from Coals today.
Speaker 2: What a plug? By the way, what's this coals plug?
Speaker 2: That's getting like.
Speaker 1: Hilarious to me? I just want to point out, but
Speaker 1: NF's Coals is the way to go.
Speaker 2: We opened that there was an almost perfect game. There
Speaker 2: were three homers, and Joe opened the show with Coals
Speaker 2: and Coals. That's how special this was to him. It's
Speaker 2: more he's as real, a harder take on Coal's over.
Speaker 2: He's more excited about coals than he is that perfect game.
Speaker 2: I would point out, though, the thing that's so interesting
Speaker 2: about Coals is the like mental job that they do.
Speaker 2: They're like they're like, all right, well, the total would
Speaker 2: have been five hundred and forty dollars. I know you
Speaker 2: say four hundred dollars here and here's fifty dollars in Coal's.
Speaker 1: Cash, and it's like, okay, I wish I could use
Speaker 1: that over at bet MGM. Let me tell you that's.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll take my extra cash will come from just
Speaker 2: directly going to my bet gmt bet MGM account. Please
Speaker 2: and give Joe. What would you need in Cole's cash
Speaker 2: per week to do this?
Speaker 1: I know I'd have to go through the math. It's
Speaker 1: a lot, but at any rate, Look the Home Run

Speaker 2: or we could talk Coole's cash. You want to talk
Speaker 2: Cole's cash, Let's do it.
Speaker 1: Let's let's let's let's recap this. Joe's take is be
Speaker 1: a man, go through a perfect game. That's that's job take.
Speaker 2: I don't think I heard. I don't think I heard
Speaker 2: that at all. That was not the take I heard.
Speaker 1: It's call It's called Joe lives in the real world,
Speaker 1: and now I'm talking about myself in the I just.
Speaker 2: Heard a Dodger apologists. That's all I did. I heard
Speaker 2: it alogist, the Dodgers, Dodger dog right, exactly, everybody.
Speaker 1: It is. It is World Series are anything less than
Speaker 1: a World Series championship, not an appearance, mind you.
Speaker 2: I agree with that.
Speaker 1: Championship is a failure now for the Dodgers because the
Speaker 1: way they've set things up and the way they're structured
Speaker 1: in that rotation. Your nuts if you think that they're
Speaker 1: gonna let just let that leash go on Kershaw like
Speaker 1: there was you know how much surprise there was for
Speaker 1: me that he got taken out of that game zero
Speaker 1: zero surprised that he got as soon as it happened. Well,
Speaker 1: that's no shocker, like there was no there was no
Speaker 1: even like, oh, I can't believe nope, zero, nothing, nada, zilch.
Speaker 2: Hopefully he got some cash for his performance.
Speaker 1: I hope, so, I hope.
Speaker 2: So you know, I have a picture with you, remember
Speaker 2: that story. I met him at Whole I felt so bad.
Speaker 2: I felt so bad because no one recognized me. He's
Speaker 2: just in his shirt and stuff, like, not in any
Speaker 2: dulled up thing. And I had to go up to
Speaker 2: him and I had to take a picture, and I
Speaker 2: have this shaky picture because I just felt so horrible
Speaker 2: about it. I was like, all right, and he was
Speaker 2: so nice about it, took a picture and it's this
Speaker 2: ridiculously shaky picture that I have to this day. It's
Speaker 2: still on my phone. I should tweet it out. But
Speaker 2: then I was staying in his family's like the nicest
Speaker 2: and his kid was like we were happy to be
Speaker 2: in line together at Whole Foods, and his kid was
Speaker 2: like doing stuff and I was kind of joking with him,
Speaker 2: and I was like I should probably not because I
Speaker 2: just asked this guy to take a picture and I'm
Speaker 2: the weirdo that recognized him. But Clayton Kershaw, nobody else
Speaker 2: recognizes him in Whole Foods. And he also can't throw
Speaker 2: perfect games. That's the moral of the story. Shop at
Speaker 2: Hell Foods, no one will recognize you and never throw
Speaker 2: throw perfect games. They can't.
Speaker 1: It's just not in this era of baseball, not what
Speaker 1: we've created. And it's and it's a royal we It's
Speaker 1: not me. By the way, Steve, I'm glad you joined Discord.
