Speaker 1: There's a new plumber and flushing let's play ball. Welcome in,
Speaker 1: everybody to fantasy prose. This is leading off, brought to
Speaker 1: you by Bet MGM, the King of sportsbooks. It's me,
Speaker 1: Joey P. Refreshed, ready to rock and roll. After a
Speaker 1: nice holiday weekend. I almost had two straight days off, unbelievable,
Speaker 1: unheard of in my house. And of course Scott Bogman
Speaker 1: joining me after a long weekend. Scott Bogman, it's great
Speaker 1: to see you, my friend. How was your Memorial Day weekend?
Speaker 2: It was nice, you know, easy peasy and that nothing major.
Speaker 2: I ate some barbecue as usual, and you know, worked
Speaker 2: a little. So that's what we do, right, So we
Speaker 2: do know, fairly boring, not not no ragers. Getting closer
Speaker 2: to forty, so you know, no, Now that's.
Speaker 1: What when you get the forty, it's you have a
Speaker 1: couple of drinks, you hang out, you talk crap, maybe
Speaker 1: you get into the pool a little bit, a little swimming.
Speaker 1: It's ninety five degrees here today in New Jersey, so
Speaker 1: I will be in the pool later this afternoon. Put
Speaker 1: some extra sunscreen on my giant bald head. But let's
Speaker 1: get to the baseball news. A lot to get through,
Speaker 1: a lot to break down, and we'll start with the
Speaker 1: Plumber making house calls for the New York Mets. Who
Speaker 1: is Nick Plumber? I don't know, nobody knows. This guy's
Speaker 1: come out of nowhere and had the weekend of his life.
Speaker 1: He had a home run yesterday and another blowout for
Speaker 1: the Mets. Here drives in four. They sweep the Phillies.
Speaker 1: Then they just continue to pound on everybody, Starling mart
Speaker 1: Day having a good night as well. Just unbelievable stuff
Speaker 1: there from the New York Mets. And I feel like
Speaker 1: this is the thing where, you know, certain teams sometimes
Speaker 1: you get you get productivity from places you didn't expect it.
Speaker 1: I feel like that's always the mark of a team
Speaker 1: that's just doing something that is a little bit we're special.
Speaker 1: And I feel like that those are the teams that
Speaker 1: kind of hitting is in fascist right, Yeah, something like
Speaker 1: that where you're like, well, I can't. It's like the
Speaker 1: Rays a couple of years ago with a Rosa Raina.
Speaker 1: You know, it's like everything's just breaking for them. You know,
Speaker 1: it's like, right, who was this guy? Where'd this guy
Speaker 1: come from? But should people be looking to pick this guy?
Speaker 1: Up because I was doing a little bit of a
Speaker 1: dive looking at his minor league track record, and it's
Speaker 1: not good. I mean, the guy hit two twenty two
Speaker 1: for his minor league career. He was a high draft
Speaker 1: pick for the Cardinals years and years ago, back in
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen when he was eighteen years old, and then
Speaker 1: all of a sudden in Double A in twenty twenty one,
Speaker 1: he had a pretty I mean a pretty darn good year.
Speaker 1: I don't know, Bogs, would you be looking at a
Speaker 1: deeply to even pick this guy up at all? No?
Speaker 2: I mean I think I'd rather pick up an actual,
Speaker 2: real plumber. So no, I you know, look, guys come up,
Speaker 2: they have a big game. It's not that big of
Speaker 2: a surprise. We've seen that many many times. So not
Speaker 2: someone I'd be running to the wire to go a
Speaker 2: choir at all.
Speaker 1: No, All right, bets Homer's and double on Monday to
Speaker 1: loss to the Pirates. Yes, the Pirates. Kimberll blows the
Speaker 1: save in that game, and then you have Mitch Garver
Speaker 1: stealing a base double twice in his return, so welcome
Speaker 1: back Mitchie the Kid. We also had a three run
Speaker 1: home run from Smith, helping the Dinbacks top the Braves
Speaker 1: and Tyler Well shuts out the Red Sox over six innings.
Speaker 1: Though of the Red Sox, oh my goodness, gracious, lots
Speaker 1: of trouble there, but hopefully for those who were in
Speaker 1: the more shallow leagues that lost Freddy Peralta, and you
Speaker 1: picked up Aaron Ashby twelve strikeouts in a victory over
Speaker 1: the Cubs. He looked dominant your thoughts on this Ashby start,
Speaker 1: And even when eventually Paralta comes back, I mean, that's
Speaker 1: gonna be a long injury. So I think if you
Speaker 1: made the investment in Ashby, you're just really excited right
Speaker 1: now because this was a guy we talked about early
Speaker 1: in the year, draft him late, stashing on the bench,
Speaker 1: wait for something good to happen. Same with Christian Javier,
Speaker 1: same with some of these young live arms. And I
Speaker 1: feel like that's a really good strategy when it comes
Speaker 1: to pitching, because eventually it feels like the inevitable injury
Speaker 1: opens up a spot for these guys, right and then
Speaker 1: more often than not they take advantage of it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I've learned my lesson a little bit
Speaker 2: about that about you know, guys with innings limits and stuff,
Speaker 2: I'm more willing to go and snap them up. And
Speaker 2: Ashby's definitely one of those guys our buddy Spoor and
Speaker 2: I have come up because we kept calling him Andy
Speaker 2: Ashby just.
Speaker 1: The Phillies.
Speaker 2: It could not help calling him Andy Ashby like the
Speaker 2: last five shows I've done. So we're just gonna call
Speaker 2: him nephew since he's Andy Ashby's nephew. So I would
Speaker 2: go and add the nephew, uh if I were you guys,
Speaker 2: if he's still available on your wire, because I mean,
Speaker 2: this is a guy that has the potential to strike
Speaker 2: out twell should he be getting these spots starts? So
Speaker 2: hopefully he's sticks in the rotation and can do it.
Speaker 2: But yeah, definitely go much much more on nephew than
Speaker 2: I am on the plumber. So well, I'll say that.
Speaker 1: And the nephew throws a lot harder than the uncle,
Speaker 1: let me tell you.
Speaker 3: I mean that's right.
Speaker 1: Andy Ashby was, you know, kind of a soft tossing
Speaker 1: pictures crafty guy. Crafty crafty, but you know, keep desful.
Speaker 1: Andy Ashby was a guy like if you had did
Speaker 1: your fifth starter, you'd be like, all right, he's not bad,
Speaker 1: Like I could live with that, but he was consistent
Speaker 1: for someone.
Speaker 2: He pitched in San Diego. It's a big ballpark. You
Speaker 2: know that Marine layer.
Speaker 3: We like that, so.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, before humidors, Joe, back in my day when the.
Speaker 1: Balls were flying everywhere and guys through two hundred innings
Speaker 1: like it was nothing. Let me tell you kids, you
Speaker 1: don't know nothing about nothing.
Speaker 2: And when I do know, Hansy skipped starts and six
Speaker 2: man rotations, skip its dougs.
Speaker 1: What are you wearing oven mits in your hand to
Speaker 1: run the bases? Look at my fingers. Look at my
Speaker 1: fingers from running the bases over the ears. Look at him?
Speaker 1: No figure goes in the right direction. They're all cock
Speaker 1: eyed because I ran the bases hard. I mean the
Speaker 1: oven mits. I'll never get over it. That makes me
Speaker 1: laugh every single You know what makes me laugh more
Speaker 1: the guys where you're like, you don't steal bases? Why
Speaker 1: the hell are you worrying it of a mint? Like
Speaker 1: I just like, what are the chance of you sliding
Speaker 1: at all? I don't know? But whatever. Also, this weekend,
Speaker 1: you know, we talked about the some of the hot
Speaker 1: hands in Major League Baseball. We'll get to all the
Speaker 1: stat heroes, but I also want to get to the
Speaker 1: hot grill that I had Bodman, because as you know,
Speaker 1: you got the box of meat. I got the box
Speaker 1: of meat from the Omaha Steaks. The box of meat
Speaker 1: made an appearance on the piece of pie grill. We
Speaker 1: had the bacon wrapped filets from Omaha's aches. We had
Speaker 1: the burgers, the steak burgers, which were delicious and I
Speaker 1: liked it. You know, they come individually wrapped, so you
Speaker 1: know exactly you can still keep some in the freezer.
Speaker 1: You have to take them all out at once, which
Speaker 1: is great. Love that. What else did we do? We
Speaker 1: had some of the chicken as well, So I'm telling
Speaker 1: you for those people still looking for someone for Father's Day,
Speaker 1: the Omaha Steaks way to go. The filets were delicious
Speaker 1: and they came with a little tiny metal skewer, so
Speaker 1: just make sure you don't eat them because the skewer
Speaker 1: keeps the bacon wrapped around the file at and that's
Speaker 1: very important. And right now, if you use the promo
Speaker 1: code leading off, you can get the Dad Wants Steak
Speaker 1: package right now and you get eight free Omaha Steak burgers.
Speaker 1: And the steak burgers are very good on the grill.
Speaker 1: I must say, nice flavor on those. And with that
Speaker 1: package you also get the air chilled boondless chicken breast.
Speaker 1: You get the the Carmel apple tartlets which I love
Speaker 1: so much, which I haven't made yet. I'm saving them
Speaker 1: just for me at some point in time. That's not
Speaker 1: for company. That's for me. All that is there. Use
Speaker 1: that promo code leading off and visit Omaha stakes dot
Speaker 1: com right now. Get him for yourself, get him for
Speaker 1: the summer, get him for a friend, get him for
Speaker 1: Father's Day. Just get him and get everything. One hundred
Speaker 1: percent guaranteed satisfaction. And they can't beat that because that's
Speaker 1: one hundred percent. All right, let's go to the next
Speaker 1: thing here, and let's talk about some of the injuries.
Speaker 1: Now Wander Franco dealing with the quad ailment. Still, this
Speaker 1: is frustrating. We're almost Wander Franco people, so hopefully you
Speaker 1: can get past this. But I don't know. I'm starting
Speaker 1: to wonder.
Speaker 2: If he's been on the struggle bus he yeah, I
Speaker 2: think maybe just stick him on the il, you know,
Speaker 2: give him ten days off, let him come back fresh,
Speaker 2: because he really has been on the struggle bus for
Speaker 2: all of May. So yeah, let's get him rested and healthy.
Speaker 2: I say this doesn't make sense.
Speaker 1: I have a lot, but I will say this, He's
Speaker 1: gonna be reevaluated today at some point. Look for the eye.
Speaker 1: I would be proactive looking for somebody if it's a
Speaker 1: thori or strata. If it's somebody off the waiver wire,
Speaker 1: who's STI floating around there in the middle endfield, grabull
Speaker 1: off the waiver wire. Be prepared for this because it's.
Speaker 3: Code grabbed thyroid. That's right. If he's a vail byroid.
Speaker 1: Hey, he was only rostered in sixty percent of leagues
Speaker 1: going into again, so he was out there Austin Meadows
Speaker 1: dealing with vertigo starting his rehab assignment. Shane Bose dominant
Speaker 1: yesterday in his rehab outing, So I would imagine he's
Speaker 1: back probably by the weekend, would be my guess. So
Speaker 1: if for some reason he's floating around still, my god,
Speaker 1: I want to play in that league, but go pick
Speaker 1: him up. And Cody Bellinger dealing with the left abductor strain,
Speaker 1: which again you know, just continues to pile on. Also Bogman,
Speaker 1: uh well, poor went out for our homie. J Happ
Speaker 1: announced his retirement after a fifteen year career. I wasn't
Speaker 1: aware that he hadn't announced his retirement, so.
Speaker 2: Hey, you know, don't don't don't pour one out for
Speaker 2: a hap. Light some fireworks off for HAP. That guy
Speaker 2: lasted fifteen years in the big conngragularations, so that is
Speaker 2: pretty incredible way to be J happ I think he
Speaker 2: just it's just j. You're not supposed to say j
Speaker 2: a but jah. If you put the two dots, it's
Speaker 2: j A.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry that's not understood because it doesn't have the
Speaker 1: dots or no, it has J period a period.
Speaker 2: I thought it was just JA, so I don't know,
Speaker 2: you know, uh I I didn't realize you were the
Speaker 2: name police Joe, so well I'm not.
Speaker 1: The name police. But if you're gonna put the periods
Speaker 1: J period A period, I thought, like John Morant is
Speaker 1: just JA that I can that's fine, but he's jaw
Speaker 1: not J. This is gonna be yeah peanuts and cracker jacks.
Speaker 1: Let me know your thoughts on this in the comments, please.
Speaker 1: I want to know how you pronounce it. Do you
Speaker 1: say j A happ I I don't think it's J happy, So.
Speaker 2: That's I just said, I just think if your name
Speaker 2: is spelled Q seven R three and you say my
Speaker 2: name is Steve, I'm just gonna call you Steve.
Speaker 3: I don't really care how you spell it.
Speaker 1: So, oh goodness, gracious, all right, Bob Man, let's continue
Speaker 1: on here. MLB dot com had some interesting takes this weekend.
Speaker 1: I always like to find this little little pieces for
Speaker 1: the show. Here five trades they'd like to see. Now,
Speaker 1: I don't know if you want to see any of
Speaker 1: these trades, so I'm gonna rattle them off to you.
Speaker 1: You tell me which one you want to see, or
Speaker 1: which one you think might actually happen or whatever the heck,
Speaker 1: or which one do you think is dumb? One was
Speaker 1: Luis Castillo to the Mets, one was Andrew Benintendie to
Speaker 1: the Padres. Then there was Frankie Montas to the Twins,
Speaker 1: and what Josh Bell to the Blue Jays, And the
Speaker 1: last one was Wilson Contreras to the Astros, which wood ally,
Speaker 1: that's a big one. So Catrere's to the Astros? Is
Speaker 1: that the one for you? Is that the one that
Speaker 1: lights you up?
Speaker 3: That's the one that I like the best.
Speaker 2: Here, I would love this to see Wilson Catres dropped
Speaker 2: in the middle of that Ashtros lineup every day. I mean,
Speaker 2: that would just be so much fun to see, uh
Speaker 2: from a fantasy standpoint, just getting Frankie out of Oakland,
Speaker 2: you know, would be nice to get him some wins
Speaker 2: in Minnesota would be very, very nice.
Speaker 3: That all these are doable.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think the one that rereaks the most
Speaker 2: of desperation to me is probably Castillo to the Mets.
Speaker 2: I just I feel like, you know, you know, like
Speaker 2: Louis Castillo to then the Mets.
Speaker 1: I like Montess to the Mets. I like not to
Speaker 1: the Twins. Castillo to the Mets. I understand, but I
Speaker 1: would I wouldn't do it if I'm them, And if
Speaker 1: especially if you're talking about Jacob de Gram, who's now
Speaker 1: considering opting out, he's already throwing from a farther distance
Speaker 1: from flat ground. I'm expecting him by the end of
Speaker 1: this month. I'm not expecting anymore. I I am. I
Speaker 1: will go on record right now, it is the thirty
Speaker 1: first of May. By the thirtieth of June, Jacob de
Speaker 1: Gram will be pitching. If he's I just feel like.
Speaker 2: We're getting a ton of updates on him, but they're
Speaker 2: never great. It's never like, yeah, he's ready to start
Speaker 2: ramping up. It's ah, he played a game at catch
Speaker 2: today and then had an MRI and then you know,
Speaker 2: drew a picture of a blue duck because he won,
Speaker 2: and then had an MRI and then had an MRI,
Speaker 2: and then he had breakfast and had an MRI.
Speaker 3: Like you know, it's just all he's gonna get cancer.
Speaker 2: He's getting scanned so much so, I mean, you know,
Speaker 2: I just I don't know if I trust anything. But
Speaker 2: I'm also completely jaded because I did draft him and
Speaker 2: TGFPI and that and com paired with Chris Sale and
Speaker 2: Jack Clarity and a couple other eloy you know, a couple.
Speaker 3: Of my guys going down. Yeah, and just made me
Speaker 3: better and angry.
Speaker 1: Dude, I've got Schuzer to Grom Freddy Parolta all on
Speaker 1: one staff. So don't talk thything about that misery, the
Speaker 1: misery of all miseries. The other one that I thought
Speaker 1: was really interesting, and I think this is worth talking
Speaker 1: about from a standpoint of fantasy investment. Andrew Benettendi's a
Speaker 1: player you could probably get on the cheap, and I
Speaker 1: saw Benitende to the Padres, and he gave me pause
Speaker 1: because at first I'm like, what the hell did need
Speaker 1: another outfielder? Yeah, then they kind of need an outfielder
Speaker 1: because if you think about it, Drake Grisher has been awful.
Speaker 1: Profars you know, come back to what profar usually is.
Speaker 1: Grisham's hitting one sixty two with a two fist back
Speaker 1: at some point here. Yeah, they are. But Will Myers
Speaker 1: also has done nothing since he's come back. He's been dreadful.
Speaker 1: But Ben and Tendy actually does make a little bit
Speaker 1: of sense, especially for a guy, you know, Grisham has
Speaker 1: not done what they wanted to do at the top
Speaker 1: of this order, and you dropped in a Benettendy who's
Speaker 1: got almost a four hundred OVP. This one, I actually
Speaker 1: I thought had legs. I thought this one was interesting.
Speaker 1: So Ben and Tendi to the Padres. You know, the
Speaker 1: Royals are gonna book the jettisons and players or Ben
Speaker 1: andt Tendi can help a lot of teams. So I
Speaker 1: think that's one to definitely keep an eye out on.
Speaker 1: Also over the weekend. I think this was Friday, because
Speaker 1: I want to say Mayor and I were talking about
Speaker 1: this on Friday. So before the game. I'm sure everybody's
Speaker 1: seen this by now, but Jack Peterson and Tommy Fam
Speaker 1: got into it, and Tommy fans slapped Jock Peterson because
Speaker 1: I guess some kind of drama in their fantasy football
Speaker 1: league got out of hand, and Jock Peterson went and
Speaker 1: got himself.
Speaker 2: Slapped Tommy sensitive Sally, I mean, that's what it is.
Speaker 2: He's sensitive.
Speaker 1: Niger Morgan look like rational, like he's yeah, seriously, like,
Speaker 1: come on, man, this dude wants to fight everyone.
Speaker 2: He's a tiny little man. I just I am so
Speaker 2: sick of Tommy Fam. And I was a big Tommy
Speaker 2: Fam fan, Like, uh, you know, just I like the
Speaker 2: power Speed Combo guys.
Speaker 3: He's one of those dudes. But you know, I mean,
Speaker 3: Jock had receipts for this Joe.
Speaker 1: He showed it.
Speaker 3: He showed all the stuff to the reporters. He's like,
Speaker 3: and you know, yes, I was mean, and I said
Speaker 3: him meme.
Speaker 2: And like he looked like a kid whose mom had
Speaker 2: scolded him the night before, and like, you know, you
Speaker 2: go on there, you apologize, you know, even though he
Speaker 2: was completely in the right, he was like, I'm sorry
Speaker 2: if anyone took it.
Speaker 3: The wrong way, and it was for a lot of
Speaker 3: money and blah blah blah.
Speaker 2: But I mean he has a lot of money, but
Speaker 2: for professional baseball players, he would be like adding one
Speaker 2: hundred dollars league, Joe, you know, for you and me so.
Speaker 1: Well, no, see, I mean I know how much some
Speaker 1: of those guys play, like my my friends, my professional
Speaker 1: wrestling friends, you know, like I know Eric Young is
Speaker 1: in a league with was in the league for with
Speaker 1: Seth Rollins and a couple other of these guys and
Speaker 1: miz and you know, it's a couple of grand each
Speaker 1: in the buy ins on those grand Yeah, I was
Speaker 1: like usually around five to ten grand at minimum for
Speaker 1: those So I mean again it's it's chunk changed to them,
Speaker 1: but it's the equivalent of like one hundred and two
Speaker 1: hundred dollars league to us probably.
Speaker 3: That's what I just said, Yeah, about a hundred bright
Speaker 3: for us.
Speaker 2: So, but I don't think I would ever slap somebody over, No,
Speaker 2: that's my point. I you know, I would never slap
Speaker 2: someone over smack talking in a fantasy league.
Speaker 1: I mean, Tommy Fan, Jeff Wilson junior, dude.
Speaker 2: He has forgotten the number one rule of fantasy is
Speaker 2: it's supposed to be fun. We all start playing because
Speaker 2: it's fun. So uh, just a pansy move from Tommy
Speaker 2: fam I hated it all.
Speaker 1: Right, you know it was not a pansy My boy,
Speaker 1: Jordan Alvarez, who I picked over the weekend and Monday
Speaker 1: counts at the weekend. Don't listen to whatever Mike may
Speaker 1: Or might try to Cilia. I get those home runs.
Speaker 1: I said, we've got no show until Tuesday. Therefore this
Speaker 1: is my perpetuity. It's the holidays.
Speaker 3: I got every thing for Goldie over the week the
Speaker 3: show last, yes.
Speaker 1: Absolution, which is my five thousand home runs. You should
Speaker 1: be at the top of the leader board. We bring
Speaker 1: it up. But this is a fun fact here, a
Speaker 1: little trivia that Mike Mayer stumbled across. Jordan Alva has
Speaker 1: had the eleventh multi home run game of his career yesterday.
Speaker 1: No other player has more whole multi home run games
Speaker 1: through the first two hundred and seventy six games of
Speaker 1: their career in National League or American League history. Can
Speaker 1: you name the only player who also has eleven multi
Speaker 1: home run games through his first two hundred and seventy
Speaker 1: six games of his career. The hint was he was
Speaker 1: traded this offseason. So there you go. Somebody has eleven
Speaker 1: through two hundred and seventy six games. Who was traded
Speaker 1: this offseason? Penuts and cracker Jacks. If you're just watching
Speaker 1: the show live and you haven't already subscribed to Fantasy Bros.
Speaker 1: MLB answered the trivia question, and you will win my
Speaker 1: undying respect. That's what you'll win here for the show.
Speaker 1: But that's a fun one. I took five guesses or something,
Speaker 1: four guesses that I was wrong on everything, but my
Speaker 1: guesses were good. My guesses were sound. So once again,
Speaker 1: who has eleven multi home run games through the first
Speaker 1: two hundred seventy six games of their career? And the
Speaker 1: hint was he was traded just this offseason. In the meantime,
Speaker 1: let's go down the wayback machine for a second. Nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety six Albert Bell, remember the famous shit of the
Speaker 1: forearm to Fernando Vigna. That is today, my friend, in
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety six, What a time to be live, Tommy fam.
Speaker 3: Is Albert Bell. If Albert Bell was skinny, all right,
Speaker 3: like that.
Speaker 1: That's but if you're Albert like if you're in a
Speaker 1: fantasy with Albert Bell. You let him make whatever pickups
Speaker 1: and trades he wants.
Speaker 2: Because Albert Bell lived like six blocks away from me
Speaker 2: in Scottsdale.
Speaker 1: Did he ever hit you with a forearm when you're
Speaker 1: not male?
Speaker 3: No, but he is not a pleasant human being, I'll
Speaker 3: say that.
Speaker 1: So all right, I see a lot of Matt Olsen
Speaker 1: guesses and Freddie Freeman who was not traded. But yes,
Speaker 1: Matt Olsen is incorrect. Story Also, yes, no, it's it's
Speaker 1: somebody less thrilling. I can tell you that right now. Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, y'are less thrilling. And I I was in
Speaker 1: I knew it was. See when mayor gives you a question,
Speaker 1: you know it's gonna be one of those like I'm
Speaker 1: gonna roll my eyes at the answer.
Speaker 3: So I gave like, well, is it swell like those?
Speaker 3: Though those are good?
Speaker 1: On Renfro No, was it aj Pollock? Nope, all those
Speaker 1: were wrong. No, it wasn't Jesse Winker or Isaiah kind
Speaker 1: of say it kind of full effort doesn't have an
Speaker 1: eleven home runs period. Trent Fleming got it. Boom, good call, Trent,
Speaker 1: Trent Fleming, you win my undying respect. Well done, Trent
Speaker 1: Fleming Gary Sanchez eleven career multi home run games not
Speaker 1: bat through two hundred and seventy six all right. Stat
Speaker 1: Heroes from the weekend. Nadiavaldi nine innings, Yes, don't adjust
Speaker 1: your ears, nine innings to earned. Six k's. Fran Barvaldez
Speaker 1: also went nine innings. I don't know what the hell's
Speaker 1: going on. He had seven k's in one earned. Sandy
Speaker 1: al Contra, Oh my god, was he could on Saturday?
Speaker 1: Eight innings fourteen k's. Shane Bieber one earned. Looks like
Speaker 1: Shane Bieber. Eight innings for him. Ty On was excellent,
Speaker 1: eight scoreless with five k's logan win have ten k's,
Speaker 1: but he did give up three dingers. He still went
Speaker 1: eight innings, but all three home runs for solo shots.
Speaker 1: Tristan McKenzie is starting to turn things around. Seven to
Speaker 1: two thirds eight k's. Corbyn Burns normal Corbyn Burns just
Speaker 1: eleven strikeouts of one walk over, seven scoreless. Aaron Ashby
Speaker 1: not Andy Ashby with his twelve k's. Garrett Cole no decision,
Speaker 1: six innings, tense strikeouts, They couldn't score any runs for him.
Speaker 1: Mackenzie gore, but I'm not bitter. Mackenzie Core seven innings,
Speaker 1: no earned nine k's and Alec Manoa, as Welsh was saying,
Speaker 1: nine ks, six innings pitched. Go with Alec Manoa. Anytime
Speaker 1: there's a big spot, that was me.
Speaker 2: I called his strikeouts on Well, that was you, It wasn't. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's right, it was you on Friday.
Speaker 1: I forgot. I you know, it's so crazy who's doing
Speaker 1: what day over the last two weeks. I forgot because
Speaker 1: Friday's usually Welsh.
Speaker 3: But no, it was she on Friday.
Speaker 1: So there you go. What do you make of the
Speaker 1: Tristan McKenzie season so far? Seems to be going in
Speaker 1: a bunch of better direction for him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I like it. I mean, I still hope
Speaker 2: he eats some sandwiches, but yeah, I I definitely like it.
Speaker 1: So I have.
Speaker 2: I've had mackenzie in a couple of leagues, you know,
Speaker 2: a couple keepers for a while. So I'm glad to
Speaker 2: see him finally doing something that's maybe pretty happy here.
Speaker 1: Mookie Betts made you happy. Three home runs and a
Speaker 1: steal this weekend, gold Schmid three home runs for Bogman,
Speaker 1: Evan Longoria three dingers, four for fourteen, Austin Riley three homers,
Speaker 1: I've been talking about him for two weeks now to
Speaker 1: Bilo on Austin Riley. Next is now by low On
Speaker 1: Metals and that's the next guy. Jose Ramirez four for
Speaker 1: eleven with two dingers of his own. Anthony Santander two
Speaker 1: home runs, four for eighteen, gi Orchella seven for seventeen.
Speaker 1: Great weekend for him with two bombs. Marcus Simeon, Yeah,
Speaker 1: buddy finally got off the SHNEI got his home run
Speaker 1: Degras Simi. Yeah, Or has been red hot six for
Speaker 1: fifteen to two steals for him along with seven ribbis
Speaker 1: and Victor Roeblts six for sixteen with a homer, four
Speaker 1: steals Victor Robless. Look, I tried to defend that guy
Speaker 1: last year and he just let me down. That was it.
Speaker 1: So I'm I'm done. I'm out. But any chance you're
Speaker 1: going to try to pluck him off the waiver wire,
Speaker 1: and yeah, I mean he could turn it around.
Speaker 2: I would if he's on your waiver wire, for sure,
Speaker 2: go grab him because if he gets going, he'll steal
Speaker 2: bases obviously, like you just saw you said, four stolen
Speaker 2: bases over the weekend, So uh yeah, I'm all about
Speaker 2: picking up robles now and seeing if it pans out.
Speaker 2: And that's the nice part is he's been so bad
Speaker 2: that he is a streamer at this point, so fingers
Speaker 2: crossed he can keep that.
Speaker 3: So I would absolutely add him if I had a shot.
Speaker 3: He's gone in all my leagues because.
Speaker 2: People, I'm playing a lot of sixteen man and they're
Speaker 2: just like, I'll take anyone who's got a shot at
Speaker 2: doing anything.
Speaker 1: You know, that's everyone. How all those leagues? Nick Plumbers
Speaker 1: one hundred percent rostered and stuff. Yes, I have al
Speaker 1: only Oh god, why do you hate yourself?
Speaker 2: They're fun, Joe, come on, and I'm fine, okay, yeah,
Speaker 2: not fun sixteen al. I mean, we don't do five outfielders,
Speaker 2: and those we do, we do just a standard nine
Speaker 2: man lineup.
Speaker 3: So just four a utel that's what we're doing.
Speaker 1: All right. Here are the stat zero's Austin Gomer eight
Speaker 1: earned runs and the inning of the third, Zach Flyn
Speaker 1: seven earned six and things Aaron Sanchez seven earned three
Speaker 1: and two thirds. Bad start for Verlander, whatever, roll your eyes,
Speaker 1: move on. Six earned runs, you give up four dingers.
Speaker 1: Bad night at the office. Jose Burrios though six earned runs,
Speaker 1: one k you know, it's that's it. I'm out. It's yeah,
Speaker 1: I can't. I can't defend it anymore. And I haven't
Speaker 1: defended it all year.
Speaker 2: I was waiting for I mean, I've got Marios, and
Speaker 2: I thought, I'm just have to do something. He's got
Speaker 2: to do some tipping. He's got to be tipping or something.
Speaker 3: I don't know what it is.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he needs to uh h, he needs to have
Speaker 2: a phantom oh my throat, neck, chest and go on
Speaker 2: the I l for a little bit and work on
Speaker 2: this in the uh, going to the minors. Uh and
Speaker 2: do a rehab assignment for a couple of starts until
Speaker 2: he straightens it out.
Speaker 3: Because it looks awful right now.
Speaker 1: I just you know, And he's been one of these
Speaker 1: He's been one of these assets for years in Fantasy
Speaker 1: Baseball that teased, and I think that's always worse. Like
Speaker 1: I'd rather have a guy come up and just be terrible.
Speaker 1: But when you have a guy who teases these moments
Speaker 1: or these runs where they look like a front of
Speaker 1: the rotation starter and then they have runs where they don't,
Speaker 1: I mean, it's one of the things has been frustrating
Speaker 1: about Aaron Nola for years. I feel like Aaron Nola
Speaker 1: was like that too, and then this year something's clicked.
Speaker 1: Whatever it is is different. But the Blue Jays right
Speaker 1: now in the American League East, they can't afford the same.
Speaker 1: If there's one team that I think has to acquire
Speaker 1: a starting pitcher sooner than later, I think it's the
Speaker 1: Blue Jays because Mona wouldn't be bad Montas or even
Speaker 1: I don't care Martin Perez. Somebody get somebody else in
Speaker 1: there to hold down the four because Burrill, you can't
Speaker 1: compete with the Yankees and the Rays if you don't
Speaker 1: have a third starter who gives you a chance to
Speaker 1: win every fifth day, not even be dominant, just the
Speaker 1: chance to win. And Burrios isn't doing that. And then
Speaker 1: Reo got hurt again. Forget it. Hitters who were terror
Speaker 1: Wait did you get hear some of these? Ian haf
Speaker 1: oh for fifteen seven strikeouts, Jacob Stalling's oh for ten,
Speaker 1: seven strikeouts, Alec Baum hit this place two for seventeen,
Speaker 1: hitting a buck eighteen over that stretch with four k's,
Speaker 1: Rizzo oh for ten with three ks, Christian Yelich one
Speaker 1: for fifteen, ugh oh, terrible, Javier Baias hitting fuck, not
Speaker 1: even a buck point zero eight three over the weekend
Speaker 1: one for twelve. Sal Perez came back, but nobody would
Speaker 1: have noticed he was one for twelve. Okay, let's go
Speaker 1: give me your stake on the uh Javier Bias because
Speaker 1: people want to drop him. People are so mad, they
Speaker 1: want to light Javier bias jerseys on fire. They're so
Speaker 1: pissed off. He was my number one bust of the year,
Speaker 1: So therefore I have zero shares. But what do you
Speaker 1: say to the people who have them right now? Bob?
Speaker 2: Look, man, I got a couple shares of Hovey and
Speaker 2: it's just it's rough because look, I thought the hate
Speaker 2: was overblown, you know, because I feel like everyone was
Speaker 2: predicting him to have a bad year.
Speaker 3: Now it's like he just had a great season.
Speaker 1: Is he really going to be that bad?
Speaker 2: And he's everything everyone else said? He is awful, God awful.
Speaker 2: So I don't blame you for wanting to get rid
Speaker 2: of him. And even if you do, I mean, you know,
Speaker 2: we're in a bottom line business here in fantasy. You
Speaker 2: know he's not doing it, So I understand getting rid
Speaker 2: of him. I would try to bench him and take
Speaker 2: him out of my starting lineup because it's going to
Speaker 2: swing back the other way for Hobby at some point.
Speaker 3: It always does.
Speaker 2: He's a super streaky hitter, so once he gets going,
Speaker 2: he's going to be like you know, the run that
Speaker 2: we've seen Goldie on and guys like that. So I
Speaker 2: don't want to drop him, but I you know, it's
Speaker 2: really hard to keep him in your lineup right now.
Speaker 3: Because he's god awful. So I understand the frustration.
Speaker 1: People are really frustrated, man, they are. I mean, I've
Speaker 1: seen it's all the Twitter questions are Hovey or Bay
Speaker 1: is reliable. That's terrible. It's a it's just terrible, But
Speaker 1: like it's not How could you not see this coming?
Speaker 1: That's the thing. I don't unders say that. I mean
Speaker 1: a guy who always had a lot of swinging, miss
Speaker 1: signing a big contract, new places, switching leagues, too much pressure,
Speaker 1: no lineup protection. I mean, this is this was like shooting.
Speaker 3: I just thought the hate was Overla Simon was.
Speaker 1: Gonna be bad, but everybody thought Javey or Bias would
Speaker 1: be Okay, I don't understand.
Speaker 2: Well, I saw I saw more hate for Bias than
Speaker 2: anybody else. But it's deserved because of what he's doing
Speaker 2: right now. But I mean, look, dude, we saw Francisco Lindor,
Speaker 2: who's a much better hitter than Javier Biit, switch leagues
Speaker 2: and struggle for you know, four months last year.
Speaker 1: So I buy Bias right now. I'd buy him for
Speaker 1: pennies on the dollar right now.
Speaker 3: Because I don't like someones frustrating by him.
Speaker 1: It's almost like price enforcing, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: That's that's kind of the same.
Speaker 1: That, Yes, I don't like Javier Bias. He was my
Speaker 1: number one bus. But again you have to pivot your
Speaker 1: mind and say I could use some offense. Do I
Speaker 1: have to give up for Javi or Bias? And and
Speaker 1: hobby Bias is going to be better than he's been.
Speaker 1: He's not gonna do this. I canna do this all years.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the pensulum is gonna swing back the other way
Speaker 2: for him, and the balls into a beach ball, and
Speaker 2: he's going to go on a nice run. It just
Speaker 2: it might not be until late July, so we don't
Speaker 2: know when it's gonna happen.
Speaker 1: Well, we do know that the ball is like a
Speaker 1: beach ball too. Do Bloom de Blum is the new
Speaker 1: leader at nineteen on the home run board. The night
Speaker 1: King of the North is no longer the King down
Speaker 1: to eighteen. I am not on this board yet, but
Speaker 1: I believe I don't know where I'm at. Mayor can
Speaker 1: tell me. Am I at double digits? I'm not sure?
Speaker 1: But definitely with Alvarez, I think I'm at ten now,
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure. So maybe Mayor can do something useful
Speaker 1: and verify that. I don't know.
Speaker 3: Oh, Mayor does so much. But we did, Oh think
Speaker 3: we did.
Speaker 1: I worked with me all weekend on the Black Book release.
Speaker 1: This is what friends do. But we did crack a
Speaker 1: thousand home runs before June. That was the challenge. We're
Speaker 1: already over a thousand home runs called. If you want

Speaker 1: based prop on betmgm one and a half. You're getting
Speaker 1: plus one thirty juice on that guy against Blake Snell Halla.
Speaker 1: Nolan Gorman's been excellent. I want to go with him too.
Speaker 1: Point five to zero on the hits for Nolan Gorman,
Speaker 1: you're getting plus one thirty. You're getting plus one thirty
Speaker 1: on the total bases at what point five zero on
Speaker 1: Nolan Gorman? All around bet MGM Gorman, Goldie get In
Speaker 1: and Christian Javier the strikeout total of six and a half.
Speaker 1: I like for the over. He's been fantastic, especially against
Speaker 1: the a's lane. That's my favorite one too today.
Speaker 3: That's real. Yeah, Yeah, he's been cool.
Speaker 1: He's been fantastic. And I'm so mad because I got
Speaker 1: out bid for him because I didn't have enough money
Speaker 1: left in my auction. So mad, and then they should
Speaker 1: have made a trade for him and they didn't. So mad.
Speaker 1: All right, let's look at DraftKings starting pitchers, different ways
Speaker 1: to approach the slate tonight. Kirby's just six point six.
Speaker 1: K is a secondary arm. It's fine, but then you
Speaker 1: gotta go up and get the other things right. So
Speaker 1: if you're gonna get it right, it's Kevin Gosman going
Speaker 1: against gi Aledo Gosbin's nine to seven. G O is
Speaker 1: ten point two. I might actually go with the Gospin side.
Speaker 1: He's a little bit cheaper, he gives me a little
Speaker 1: bit more offense. Then you got Eric Lower at nine
Speaker 1: point nine, also a good matchup. If you want to
Speaker 1: have Lower along with Gosbin. It's a little tough, but
Speaker 1: you can make it work instead. Maybe Lower with Adam
Speaker 1: wayIn right a eight point seven, or maybe marteam Rez
Speaker 1: at eight point nine. Perezes pitch great. Christian Javier is
Speaker 1: nine point six. He's going against Montas, but I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go with the Javier side and I'm staying away. I
Speaker 1: think Julio Urius is a trap. I don't care if
Speaker 1: it's the Pirates. He's talking out six guys per nine.
Speaker 1: This is what you do. And I just wrote about
Speaker 1: this is gonna be out on Fantasy Pros later today.
Speaker 1: Urius just face the nets. He's gonna face the Pirates today,
Speaker 1: even if he looks good. This is your chance to
Speaker 1: get out after these two starts on FanDuel. Different approach.
Speaker 1: Gospel ten point two, Gilito at ten k Again, maybe
Speaker 1: you do one lineup with one, why not lineup with
Speaker 1: the other. See which works out. Martin Perez at nine
Speaker 1: point seven, Eric Lower ten point six. All in play.
Speaker 1: But my favorite tournament play without a doubt tonight on
Speaker 1: FanDuel with single pitcher Christian Xavier eight point seven against
Speaker 1: the A's even though it's Montoas. I don't care. Dodgers, Rockies, Mets.
Speaker 1: Those are your lineups to look for for game stacking.
Speaker 1: Your lineup builder is Markana of the Mets three point
Speaker 1: zero Peralta three point six on DK and Matt Carpenter,
Speaker 1: Yes that Matt Carpenter two point six on FanDuel Carpenter's
Speaker 1: two point five. JD. Davis, who was not special, but
Speaker 1: tonight he might be two point three V's in the lineup.
Speaker 1: If Plumber's in the lineup, you get his rear end
Speaker 1: in the lineup. I don't think he's going to be
Speaker 1: tonight though, And Joey Vado just two point six as well.
Speaker 1: I'm a dumbass, and I accidentally erased Bogman's hard work
Speaker 1: in the show sheet this morning because I'm an idiot.
Speaker 1: Sooman anything BVP wise to share with our good friends.
Speaker 2: I wake up, I go to double check my work
Speaker 2: and I see it's all gone, and I was like,
Speaker 2: who did this to me? It was my friend Joey
Speaker 2: p It's all right. Look, the big one that I
Speaker 2: remember is and I looked it up. Mike Zanino eight
Speaker 2: for twenty six. That's a three to eight average against
Speaker 2: Martin Perez with four bombs against him in his career.
Speaker 2: So easily your best PVB matchup today would be Zanino's
Speaker 2: track record against Martin Perez hope for a bomb there.
Speaker 2: All right, there you go, and tonight, in terms of
Speaker 2: calling your home runs, I'm gonna go with Matt Olsen.
Speaker 2: So I'm now the guy who's gonna break guys out
Speaker 2: of cold slump. So I'm gonna go with Matt Olson.
Speaker 1: It's time. I've been talking about Austin Riley, been talking
Speaker 1: about Marcus Simeon. You're next. Let's go Matt Olson in
Speaker 1: Arizona against the Jabbroni pitcher. Let's do this. Matt Olson
Speaker 1: tonight goes Yard in Arizona. Who do you got going
Speaker 1: yard tonight?
Speaker 3: Fox? Uh, look, Goldie just got me three. I'm just
Speaker 3: gonna leave Goldie on this list.
Speaker 2: Doesn't hit a homer, So Mayor count Goldie as long
Speaker 2: as he's on the sheet. For me, I just want Goldie,
Speaker 2: That's all I want. So guy just keeps rocking for me. Uh,
Speaker 2: he's gonna hit another one tonight, so let's go Goldie.
Speaker 1: Unbelievable. So there you go. It says Mayor's got trout again.
Speaker 1: So I don't like. I don't know. It's like you
Speaker 1: guys are all getting lazy, like just leaving guys in there,
Speaker 1: which is fine. It's a theory. You can use it.
Speaker 1: It's fine.
Speaker 2: Uh, but call me lazy. I did all my work
Speaker 2: and my co host deleted it. Call me lazy. I'm
Speaker 2: not lazy at all. Come on, Joe, didn't I just
Speaker 2: write three chapters of the Black Book for you? This
Speaker 2: guy calls me lazy?
Speaker 1: Give me now available on Amazon, by the way, for football.
Speaker 1: You know what, dude, let me tell you. I apologize.
Speaker 1: I told you this. I never get days off, let
Speaker 1: alone two in a row, and my brain was clearly
Speaker 1: not functioning properly, and I was just sweeping the sheet
Speaker 1: and clearing everything, and the part of me thought, oh wait, no,
Speaker 1: that that had to be last week because Bobman did
Speaker 1: the Friday Show. Even though I forgot you did the
Speaker 1: Friday Show this morning that I remember by the time
Speaker 1: I got here, I forgot.
Speaker 3: It's fine.
Speaker 1: When I get out of my normal workaholic brain set,
Speaker 1: it's it's all anything goes, anything goes. So there you
Speaker 1: have it. This has been fun as always, but we're
Speaker 1: back again tomorrow to do more of it. Hopefully, Matt Olsen,
Speaker 1: we'll hit three home runs. I just want to get
Speaker 1: on that physical leaderboard before mayor. That's the only thing
Speaker 1: I want to do, and then as soon as I do,
Speaker 1: that's it. I'm going to go do more football shows
Speaker 1: and I will. I'm gonna walk away as soon as
Speaker 1: I get out of me, all right. Thank you everybody
