Speaker 1: Welcome in everybody in Fantasy pros MLB. This is Leading
Speaker 1: Off Live, brought to you by Prize Picked. Sign up
Speaker 1: for Prize Pick today with that promo code leading off.
Speaker 1: Make sure you use that promo code when you do.
Speaker 1: It's me Joey p Joe piece of via. That of
Speaker 1: course is the Welsh and it's you, the Peanuts, the
Speaker 1: Cracker Jacks. You're watching us live. Welcome especially for the
Speaker 1: first time. I love the first time Peanuts and Cracker
Speaker 1: Jacks is a great moment. Everybody gets super excited. Welsh.
Speaker 1: We've got a great question from the gallery right out
Speaker 1: of the bat. This is from Zach Zach Rodkowitz, the
Speaker 1: rod Kowitzes of Rochester, New York. Who are some more
Speaker 1: established pictures with upside. I'd be able to trade Mitch
Speaker 1: Keller for Zach. I don't want to trade Mitch Keller.
Speaker 1: What do you think, Welsh? Do you think Mitch Keller
Speaker 1: can be dealt for a established struggling picture, because I
Speaker 1: don't think you want to deal him for a guy
Speaker 1: like Manoa. I don't know if you want to deal
Speaker 1: him for an older guy like a Sures or somebody
Speaker 1: like that. To me, you're right in the wave of
Speaker 1: Mitch Keller, what do you think.
Speaker 2: Ooh, Minoa is a really good one that's actually really
Speaker 2: good of like the struggly higher name type of ruggle.
Speaker 1: He was putting it lightly. I don't.
Speaker 2: I think I kind of might agree with you on that.
Speaker 2: I'm not sure that I'm trading him even for Minoa,
Speaker 2: even though you know, if it bounces back it would
Speaker 2: be great. I think you could look at Mitch Keller.
Speaker 2: Maybe if you are fearful it's gonna break down, maybe
Speaker 2: you could look at some of the Mariners guys, like
Speaker 2: you know, George Kirby, had the strikeouts haven't been there.
Speaker 2: I had kind of designated him as a guy to
Speaker 2: look at trading at his high recently because the strikeouts
Speaker 2: weren't there. But he's also just a great baseline player,
Speaker 2: so maybe you could look at him again. A logan
Speaker 2: Gilbert in there. I just don't know if I'm jumping
Speaker 2: in the pool. I'm trying to I'm looking at names
Speaker 2: right now. Well, I don't. I don't know if I
Speaker 2: would want to.
Speaker 1: Jump out on Sunday in our big Mitch Keller conversation.
Speaker 1: This was before the latest giant Mitch Keller Strikeout Extravaganza.
Speaker 1: He was basically saying, Hey, the same thing I do,
Speaker 1: which is, you drafted Mitch Keller late, you got a value.
Speaker 1: I understand the thought process of like I'm a little concerned,
Speaker 1: but you know, at some point maybe it falls off.
Speaker 1: But I think when you're looking at a player like
Speaker 1: Mitch Keller, Zach, this is a player that you've struck
Speaker 1: gold on, I don't think he carries enough weight to
Speaker 1: really bring you back a big time Zach Wheeler arm
Speaker 1: or something like that. Or Guys, you're not gonna get
Speaker 1: Zach Gallon. You're not gonna get anybody named Zach basically Zach.
Speaker 1: So if you're looking for another Zach, you're not gonna
Speaker 1: get him. I'm just riding the Mitch Keller wave until
Speaker 1: it crashes into the into the EU.
Speaker 2: I'd also say that like, most likely you're not going
Speaker 2: to trade a pitcher for a pitcher in leagues, like
Speaker 2: rarely does that happen, Like why, Like the matchup doesn't
Speaker 2: really fit, So you're more likely to trade Mitch Keller
Speaker 2: to get another position. So that's how those trades will
Speaker 2: end up.
Speaker 1: Looking like getting Julio for Mitch Keller. You know, what
Speaker 1: I mean, that's no.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well I see. I think these are the this
Speaker 2: is the worst, these type of guys because he's like
Speaker 2: a late bloomer. These are the type of guys that
Speaker 2: the trade value never returns what they're putting for you
Speaker 2: on your fantasy team. So I just like, you don't
Speaker 2: know how to justify it unless someone is really willing
Speaker 2: to pay up.
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 2: Maybe you get like a you know, Corbyn Carrol, or
Speaker 2: you can get one of those guys that Steel Spaces
Speaker 2: that's struggling a little bit right now. You can go
Speaker 2: up by the way, if you ever watch that series
Speaker 2: Zach Morris is the worst or whatever.
Speaker 1: Zach Morris.
Speaker 2: It's trash. Yeah, that's what it is. It's funny.
Speaker 1: You can get Zach Morris for him maybe may to
Speaker 1: be named later. There you go. By the way, Eric
Speaker 1: in the chat trolling me Max months, he says, hello, Eric,
Speaker 1: get out, get out out of the chat. Does what
Speaker 1: happens like when your dog eats a pillow or something
Speaker 1: in your house? Just get out.
Speaker 2: I wish we had like the clip like just ready
Speaker 2: to play, and we could do it in like black
Speaker 2: and white where it's Joe's like or three black over
Speaker 2: all the Homers and follow.
Speaker 1: Whatever. All right, Hey, look man, sometimes one sometimes you
Speaker 1: meet the bear. Sometimes the bear he eats you. Let's
Speaker 1: get to some of the headlines from yesterday's baseball game.
Speaker 1: Jack Flaherty is Jack back ten ten strikeouts for Jack Flaherty,
Speaker 1: the Cardinals beating up on the Brewers eighteen to one.
Speaker 1: So this was an absolute just murder fast here. Parolta
Speaker 1: was not good, so that was no bueno. But I
Speaker 1: told you yesterday do the different picture combination of you
Speaker 1: have Parolta. Hope we had more than one. Yesterday was
Speaker 1: a multi entry kind of day in DFS, but seventeen
Speaker 1: swings and misses on the ten strikeouts, that was a high.
Speaker 1: He still above five. Are you buying the renaissance of
Speaker 1: Jack Flaherty, Welsh because last night was pretty convincing.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, I'm not like the biggest buy on
Speaker 2: Jack Flarity, but it's pretty impressive. Guy had twenty one
Speaker 2: walks in April. He's down to eight right now, and
Speaker 2: that was through six starts. He's through three starts right here,
Speaker 2: so you know it's cut down a little bit. Strikeouts
Speaker 2: have been there. He's a little bit more effective. I
Speaker 2: feel like there's more confidence with all this crazy Wilson
Speaker 2: Controllers thing that's going on.
Speaker 1: Who is now back and catching by the way, everybody,
Speaker 1: Yeah he caught that game.
Speaker 2: Yeah he caught that game. He also, like Jack Flaherty,
Speaker 2: has had a little bit of like like little whiny
Speaker 2: at times, and he was very kind of like blaming
Speaker 2: everybody else. And I don't know if you saw a
Speaker 2: couple weeks back, he's like a report, don't talk to
Speaker 2: me about like the walks and stuff and whatever. And
Speaker 2: then finally this last couple of days he's taken some
Speaker 2: ownership of the issues with contraras and blaming himself instead
Speaker 2: of you know, blaming literally everybody else. So maybe he's
Speaker 2: just settling in and feeling a little bit more comfortable.
Speaker 2: I still think he's eh, he's just overall like he's
Speaker 2: better than he was, so you can get a higher return,
Speaker 2: like you could have the return you would have got
Speaker 2: for what you traded for him for a couple of
Speaker 2: weeks ago. Looks a lot better now, but I don't
Speaker 2: know how much higher it goes. I think he can
Speaker 2: get into the low four era, the low four era range,
Speaker 2: then he could strike out six or seven on a night.
Speaker 2: But he's gonna walk, he's gonna give up earned runs.
Speaker 2: So I'm uh, I'm kinda.
Speaker 1: It's just funny because Flowery is one of these guys
Speaker 1: that looked like he was an emerging ace in Fantasy
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, and injuries and inconsistencies really
Speaker 1: just kind of fell off the map for him. Here's
Speaker 1: why he gotta love this, Dylan Love wants us to
Speaker 1: grade the trade. Here you go, you gotta I gotta
Speaker 1: love when everyone does this after the fact. You got
Speaker 1: to do this before because nobody's ever happy when they
Speaker 1: ask us to do this. But we'll do it anyway, Dylan,
Speaker 1: because we love you and your last name is Love. Hey, guys,
Speaker 1: I traded away Freddy Peralta and Jared Kelnick and received
Speaker 1: Jacob de Gram. What do you guys think? Well, I
Speaker 1: think he gave up two players for one player that
Speaker 1: ever plays, So there you go.
Speaker 2: So I don't like it so well, I mean, Freddy
Speaker 2: Peralta got lit up yesterday. Jared Kelnick is cooling off.
Speaker 2: I think this is a next way. I think this
Speaker 2: is a calculated fun trade. You put on a ton
Speaker 2: of risk, though, because Jacob Gram's not back, and they're like, yeah,
Speaker 2: we think will be backham like two or three weeks.
Speaker 2: So there's a ton of in sort of risk, but
Speaker 2: like you have the best upside here. I think Freddy
Speaker 2: Parlt is coming back to earth. Jared Kellick's kind of
Speaker 2: coming back to earth. So like if de Gram is
Speaker 2: out there, it's a freaking steal, it's a freaking steal.
Speaker 2: But the question and the problem has been his health
Speaker 2: this whole year, So.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: This is like if you're putting like a grade to it,
Speaker 2: I would probably a grade this like a B. And
Speaker 2: I think Joe probably grades this a D.
Speaker 1: D mean, yeah, it's a big D anyway, I was saying,
Speaker 1: a big D. Michael Waka carried a no hit been
Speaker 1: into the eighth inning yesterday ultimately just one hit ended
Speaker 1: up giving up against the Royals. So eleven strikeouts from
Speaker 1: Michael Waka if you had that on your bingo card.
Speaker 1: I love these games. I feel like last night was
Speaker 1: one of those knights in baseball where we all get
Speaker 1: up the next day and go, what the hell did
Speaker 1: I just see? And this happens. I would say once
Speaker 1: every seven to ten days we get one.
Speaker 2: Of these blackout drunkers. What do we do.
Speaker 1: It's like it's like everybody got roofyed. The next thing
Speaker 1: you know, wake up and joy Minss went four for
Speaker 1: five with three doubles. So there you go, and C. J.
Speaker 1: Abrams continues to kill the Mets as the entire Washington
Speaker 1: Nationals continue to show you. Otani picked up his fifth victory,
Speaker 1: but allowed five runs on four hits, so not the
Speaker 1: best outing. Otani struggling, just it's had lately.
Speaker 2: Get the props.
Speaker 1: Now. Speaking of winners, by the way and victorious things,
Speaker 1: we have one. So here you go, boom. This is

Speaker 1: there you go, giving away free stuff.
Speaker 2: Well his comment was making me laugh too, because it
Speaker 2: almost was. It seemed like one of those bots at first,
Speaker 2: because it was like, I think you guys are too popular,
Speaker 2: and I was like what, and then it was oh,
Speaker 2: because people keep swooping up the guys that we give
Speaker 2: advice on.
Speaker 1: So every time I try and follow your advice, he said,
Speaker 1: someone in my league has already been in it. All right,
Speaker 1: So there you go. You gotta be a little quicker.
Speaker 1: So that's why you watch us live, you know if
Speaker 1: you can. This is why you watch the you listen
Speaker 1: to the podcast, or you watch back on YouTube. You
Speaker 1: miss all the fun. All right, let's do the rookie
Speaker 1: lookie for the day. Brenton Doyle went three for four
Speaker 1: with a pair of home runs. Three rebbies. Do we care?
Speaker 2: I already forgot about the rookie lookie. You actually you
Speaker 2: confused me there for a minute, and you scared me
Speaker 2: on it. Brenton Doyle. I think we should be. I
Speaker 2: was very dismissive, dismissive of Brenton Doyle. You were always
Speaker 2: higher Aodoyle rules. By the way, his age to level
Speaker 2: was always kind of a discrepancy, which was something that
Speaker 2: I was a little bit dismissive of. But listen, he
Speaker 2: can steal. He's got six stolen bases so far this
Speaker 2: show in Colorado. Four homers is great, but would point
Speaker 2: out his hard hit numbers are nothing crazy impressive. His
Speaker 2: strikeout rate is over thirty percent, which I don't love,
Speaker 2: but his XBA is pretty stable. Right now, he's got
Speaker 2: a gig. It's the most hitter friendly place that you
Speaker 2: could probably imagine, and it truly the stolen bases that
Speaker 2: are kind of getting me going. And he's playing awesome defense.
Speaker 2: So for the defense alone, that's going to keep him
Speaker 2: on the field and for him to I don't know,
Speaker 2: put out like a five tool ability. Yeah, I think
Speaker 2: we should pay attention to him in probably deeper twelve
Speaker 2: team leagues, ten team leagues. I mean, you could probably
Speaker 2: stream lots of guys. I'm probably not interested, but twelve
Speaker 2: team sure, five outfielder think you can find.
Speaker 1: A spot all right, So a lot of people in
Speaker 1: the chat asking about TODJ. Bradley, and it looks like
Speaker 1: he's under consideration basically, so Todge Bradley and Cooper chris Well,
Speaker 1: who I'm pretty sure. I mean, if you were named
Speaker 1: Cooper chris Well, I'm pretty sure you have a Country
Speaker 1: Code membership. Like I think that's just part of of cools.
Speaker 1: I have the nice wa salad please and a nice
Speaker 1: draw show today. But look, I don't know if it's
Speaker 1: going to be Todge Bradley or not. Nobody knows quite yet.
Speaker 1: But if he's floating around the way wired him now
Speaker 1: like this is what you gotta do.
Speaker 2: I think you should have already done that. Regardless of
Speaker 2: I know.
Speaker 1: I know you should go do that. You shouldn't players
Speaker 1: that play for Jacob de Gram either.
Speaker 2: But pause and go do it right now and then
Speaker 2: come and.
Speaker 1: Go pause it up. Well, you can do both. I mean,
Speaker 1: we can multitask and you can listen to the show
Speaker 1: at the same time you're making moves on the apps
Speaker 1: or wherever you're doing or or Welsh. If you were smart,
Speaker 1: if you were smart and you had already my playbook,
Speaker 1: you could be doing this stuff and you could be
Speaker 1: adding these things. Look at that. Look at the perfect segue.
Speaker 1: If you haven't had my playbook already again, the lineup assistant,
Speaker 1: the waiver assistant, the trade analyzer, everything's there for you.
Speaker 1: It's free to get it downloaded. That way you can
Speaker 1: manage all your teams. You could set your lineup too,
Speaker 1: different platforms, different leagues, doesn't matter. You can set all
Speaker 1: your lines from one spot on my playbook. And if
Speaker 1: your premium you get all kinds of weather bells and
Speaker 1: whistles too. They're amazing X rays for many Muchatda's left
Speaker 1: hand camback negative. So that's good if you're geta hit
Speaker 1: by a pitch. Yesterday, more injury news, Cody Bellinger pulled
Speaker 1: from the Astros game. He went for a ball and
Speaker 1: he came up to the lame.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was an amazing ith. Yeah, came on his ankle.
Speaker 2: So so there we go.
Speaker 1: We'll see what that means. So prayers for Cody Bellinger. CJ.
Speaker 1: Crohne went on the ten day IL with the backspass,
Speaker 1: as we mentioned yesterday and also mentioned yesterday Anthony Rendone
Speaker 1: when you know it did end up on the IL
Speaker 1: after all, retroactive with a left groin strain. So just Yeah,
Speaker 1: Corey Seeger is gonna be back in the next couple
Speaker 1: of days, so that's good news. And Pete Fairbanks was
Speaker 1: back yesterday, so there you go. Good news. Here we go,
Speaker 1: Three up, three down, or otherwise known as the Max
Speaker 1: Mounsey segment of the show. Three for five two homer
Speaker 1: three RBIs for Max Munsey. They won an extras yesterday,
Speaker 1: cal Rawley, did you know? Did you know?
Speaker 2: I have a little did you know segment? Did Joe
Speaker 2: know that Max Munsey leads the league in homers?
Speaker 1: Yes? I did actually know that.
Speaker 2: Oh you did know? Yeah, I'm sure you know that.
Speaker 2: Lots of people told you.
Speaker 1: I knew anyway, But wonkey here saying Cooper Chriswell got
Speaker 1: lost on his way to lacrosse practice one hundred. He
Speaker 1: plays lacrosse without a doubt, and I don't think that
Speaker 1: I'm not not a negative thing in the lacrosse I'm
Speaker 1: just saying, Cooper chris Well plays across. Did you see
Speaker 1: that poster the other night that said, uh, I forget
Speaker 1: what route it was where said Mookie bets eats corn
Speaker 1: the long way?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I did. There's something I really do love, like absurd,
Speaker 2: the absurd signs like those.
Speaker 1: I love the ones that are more ethereal and bizarre
Speaker 1: and you have to stop and thinks for a second.
Speaker 2: Are signs going to be somebody?
Speaker 1: There's used to be somebody a couple years ago. Do
Speaker 1: you remember this? I think it was are the Mets
Speaker 1: games that had like weird signs like that all the time,
Speaker 1: like you know, you know, I don't know. It's like
Speaker 1: Jeff McNeil all his clothes are dry clean only or
Speaker 1: things like that. It was just really funny.
Speaker 2: I feel like people get it in their system. But
Speaker 2: are signs going away? Like wrestling still has the stranglehold.
Speaker 2: I feel like eighty percent signs.
Speaker 1: You go back and watch an old school Attitude era,
Speaker 1: you can't see a person. It's all signs now. I mean,
Speaker 1: I've been so much wrestling in the last ten years.
Speaker 2: But I'm saying like in general, like signs are like
Speaker 2: wrestling is the big one. Those are going away? I
Speaker 2: don't see there's not a big sign thing going on
Speaker 2: in sports. You, by the way, thank god that can
Speaker 2: go the way with the wave. You know we can well,
Speaker 2: because if.
Speaker 1: You're sitting behind that person you can't see, it's pretty annoying.
Speaker 2: You should be able to keep it afici should you be.
Speaker 1: Able to punch Aaron Judge who had another two home
Speaker 1: runs for the second time in three days. Apparently everyone
Speaker 1: look at the side get that side I we should
Speaker 1: have put that together. That's on us. I just realized it. Now,
Speaker 1: the side eye meme for Aaron Judge. Somebody in our
Speaker 1: social media, here's Ryan Wonky. Get Ryan on the phone
Speaker 1: right now, get him tweeting something about Aaron Judge with
Speaker 1: the side eye. That is the perfect TikTok to make
Speaker 1: right now. Uh so what do you make it of this?
Speaker 1: I mean sign stealing a piece of baseball that we
Speaker 1: all understand and know obviously it was getting sent to him.
Speaker 1: So do you think there's gonna be a trouble in
Speaker 1: paradise here in Judge of the Inks?
Speaker 2: Maybe this is a hot take.
Speaker 1: Like I don't care. I don't know either.
Speaker 2: They're so much but there is so much care on that,
Speaker 2: like so much. So Wonky was like, you have to
Speaker 2: talk about this, like you have to talk about this
Speaker 2: in our in our chat we all have, but like,
Speaker 2: I don't care that he he was doing this, like
Speaker 2: to be honest with the unsurprised more players not like
Speaker 2: looking back at the catcher and stuff. That feels very
Speaker 2: unwritten rule. They're not having tective. They're not like that
Speaker 2: uh Juco team that had the devices inside the helmets
Speaker 2: and stuff. I don't know if they figured so. I've
Speaker 2: always I've always been like this, if they figure something
Speaker 2: out and they want to share the information, I just
Speaker 2: don't know what the problem with that is, especially if
Speaker 2: it's the figure it out like cameras in trash Can.
Speaker 1: I guess.
Speaker 2: I guess trash can.
Speaker 1: As long as you're not using the digital devices and
Speaker 1: that's the thing. And people got so mad about the astros,
Speaker 1: and all I kept saying was, well, they got so
Speaker 1: mad because they found a better way to do it
Speaker 1: than anybody else that wasn't necessarily like the digit like
Speaker 1: they figured it out and then they you know, banging
Speaker 1: the trash can or something instead of you know, there
Speaker 1: was that a lot of smoke around the whole Yankees
Speaker 1: thing with iPhones and the eye watches whatever the hell
Speaker 1: was a lot of things going on. There were all
Speaker 1: the Apple watch stuff of disappeared.
Speaker 2: I will admit it was weird though that like we've
Speaker 2: never seen this before, and then all of a sudden
Speaker 2: in this game. He's just everything. He's just like, want.
Speaker 1: Us to do sideiye at each other.
Speaker 2: By the way this is, it's like going the wrong direction.
Speaker 2: So I was going the wrong I think No, I think.
Speaker 1: I was all right, so go the way you were?
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is right right, So we're looking at each other.
Speaker 1: I don't know which way. It's very difficult because the
Speaker 1: cameras reversal. I don't.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I was. I think we were going
Speaker 2: the right way.
Speaker 1: That's all right, let's move on here. Now. Usually we
Speaker 1: do three downs, but this down was so bad. He's
Speaker 1: going to get the standalone down. Okay, this is this
Speaker 1: is embarrassing. And yesterday I thought he was a value
Speaker 1: because I thought there was I smelled runs in that game,
Speaker 1: and I was right for Seattle. Oh my god, if
Speaker 1: he had Seattle yesterday, you crush right. Colton Long went
Speaker 1: over five last night for the Mariners. Over five. They
Speaker 1: scored ten runs, and he went over five. And they
Speaker 1: brought in a position player to pitch, and he got
Speaker 1: up with the bases loaded. And I watched this at
Speaker 1: bat and I'm like, all right, he's over four. He's
Speaker 1: gonna get a hit here against a position player and
Speaker 1: he flies out to right field. It was embarrassing. You
Speaker 1: can't get a hit off of the position player pitch.
Speaker 2: He's not good, like I don't anytime Colton Wong's out there,
Speaker 2: I'm like, no, it's unfortunately, he's no good at all
Speaker 2: for anybody.
Speaker 1: People are saying he's gonna that Aaron Judge is gonna
Speaker 1: get drilled today. No he's not. Maybe if it was
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty seven, he'd get drilled, but not in modern
Speaker 1: day bait in the way. I don't think he does.
Speaker 2: I bet you I wouldn't be shocked if he does.
Speaker 1: But I don't think he gets drilled somebody. I mean,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't drill Aaron Judge. He's enormous. Why would you hit.
Speaker 2: That they're gonna do. They're gonna drill DJ Lemah here
Speaker 2: or Anthony.
Speaker 1: FOI that's right, Yeah, hit Anthony Volpi. Let him, don't.
Speaker 2: You might know a guy. You might know a guy though.
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe his uncle comes over. I know a guy.
Speaker 1: His name is Welsh. He's really good at picking prizes
Speaker 1: on prize Picks. Enter right now with the promo code
Speaker 1: leading off. Use that code when he signed up at
Speaker 1: prize Picks today. Download the app or go to prize
Speaker 1: picks dot Com and you get one hundred percent to
Speaker 1: posit a match up to one hundred dollars. All right, Welsh,
Speaker 1: what do you got for the prize picking on the Tuesday?
Speaker 2: Yesterday it was okay. The Alonso didn't work out. The
Speaker 2: other two did.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: George Kirby was free yesterday. Just want to everybody. It
Speaker 2: was absolutely free. It's ridiculous. That's why I picked him
Speaker 2: out today. I've talked about this before. Today. I am
Speaker 2: officially on the haters ball for prize Picks. I am
Speaker 2: doing a Haters Picks today and it is all unders,
Speaker 2: and I don't know how it's gonna work, but we're
Speaker 2: gonna play it out because I really like them just
Speaker 2: in general. So this is the Haters Prize pick of
Speaker 2: the day. All unders. We are hating on guys to
Speaker 2: have any offense. And I have attacked hits plus runs
Speaker 2: plus RBI because they're giving us some gifts here. So
Speaker 2: these are all one and a half. So if they
Speaker 2: don't get two between a hit a run in RBI,
Speaker 2: you cash first up on the Haters Picks. Carlos Santana
Speaker 2: one point five hits run RBI yes, thank you. I
Speaker 2: think he's accomplished this once in the last five games.
Speaker 2: Number two, jan Ya Pez hits runs RBI under one
Speaker 2: and a half. I don't think he's done this in
Speaker 2: the last four or five, and Matt Vierling hits run
Speaker 2: RBI one point five. This is saying all those guys
Speaker 2: have to get too between a run an RBI and
Speaker 2: a hit. I do not believe that's going to happen.
Speaker 2: And I am going up against them, Carlos Santana, Wanya Pez,
Speaker 2: Vierling all under. It's the haters price pick for the day. Haters,
Speaker 2: I really hope it cashes.
Speaker 1: Hater's gonna hate hate hate, mm hmm. I'm just gonna shake,
Speaker 1: shake shake. By the way, we're getting closer and closer
Speaker 1: to the Taylor Swift concert here in my house, and
Speaker 1: I just found out about something today that I did
Speaker 1: not know existed, but apparently people are doing called tailorgating.
Speaker 1: Have you heard about this where they're going ahead of
Speaker 1: the concert and they're having some fun. The ladies are
Speaker 1: out there having some fun in the parking lot. Fun
Speaker 1: Joe tailorgating. I don't know, uh, but.
Speaker 2: Uh I kind of parking lo was fun.
Speaker 1: I don't know, but if I wasn't going with my kids,
Speaker 1: it sounds like a good time. I'll go there. You know,
Speaker 1: everyone's you know, pre showing it up, up drinking Margarita's.
Speaker 1: You know. I think having a good time sounds like fun.
Speaker 1: I can't do that.
Speaker 2: I don't do a lot of concerts, and I haven't
Speaker 2: done a concert in a long time. But I think
Speaker 2: back to one of my very first concerts ever was
Speaker 2: Rage Against the Machine and Gang Star opened up for them,
Speaker 2: And if you can think of all of that, and
Speaker 2: I just sit here when you tell me about that,
Speaker 2: and I wonder, I wonder what the similarities to a
Speaker 2: Rage Against the Machine Gangstar concert is to Taylor Swift.
Speaker 2: I wonder if there are any similarities show wait, the similarity, crowd,
Speaker 2: the experience, maybe if you bump into someone. I remember
Speaker 2: I bumped into someone. I was like, oh hey, sorry,
Speaker 2: and the guy was like mad that I apologize. Like
Speaker 2: do you think that happens to Taylor Swift?
Speaker 1: They're like, I don't know. I think it's gonna be wild.
Speaker 1: I was at a Pink concert a couple of years ago.
Speaker 1: She's terrific. But the crazy part about that one was
Speaker 1: I was next to. I was there with my daughters,
Speaker 1: and then next to me were two you know, middle
Speaker 1: aged women who were out there. They were out, they
Speaker 1: were out that night, okay, they were out there to
Speaker 1: see Pink. And the opening act was this Jewelam Michael's woman,
Speaker 1: and she was not great, and all she was doing
Speaker 1: was talking about her feelings and singing these songs that
Speaker 1: were very millennialish, and these two women next to me
Speaker 1: were hilarious and not having it. They were booing and
Speaker 1: screaming for her to get off the stage and just
Speaker 1: let Pink come on it because they were there for Pink,
Speaker 1: not for you, you twenty year old, thin blonde woman
Speaker 1: singing no, no, no, not there for her. They were
Speaker 1: there for Pink, singing about feelings and problems in real
Speaker 1: life stuff. And it was hysterical.
Speaker 2: They were what did you have to rob or bribe
Speaker 2: to get those tickets?
Speaker 1: By the way, well they're expensive. What the Taylor Swift ones?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I actually bought them live on air during one of
Speaker 1: our live streams of Fantasy program. Oh really, because I
Speaker 1: was there at ten o'clock in the morning like everybody else,
Speaker 1: waiting for Nymers and that weird thing. And I knew
Speaker 1: as soon as the live streams started. Of course it
Speaker 1: was come back on and God bless Andrew Rickson. I
Speaker 1: told my kids, you better thank ganrew Erckson because he
Speaker 1: covered me. I literally said, all right, Andrew, I'm gonna go,
Speaker 1: and then I you know, finally it was like playing
Speaker 1: whack a mole. It was so it was the most
Speaker 1: nerve wracking five minutes of my life because every time
Speaker 1: you clicked on a seat, they would disappear because all
Speaker 1: the pots were in there. Obviously there was some problems,
Speaker 1: but I got them. Father of the Year price picks
Speaker 1: Christian Haavey are seven and a half strikeouts. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go the under on this one. It's a big number.
Speaker 1: Justin Steel four. I'm gonna go over on this one
Speaker 1: because it's such a low number. Paul Golchman, who is spoiler,
Speaker 1: gonna get mentioned later on also in on Now yesterday,
Speaker 1: the parlay that I put together again, if you bet
Speaker 1: it separately, you still kind of were pushed. Actually, you
Speaker 1: probably came out positive you bet, because two out of
Speaker 1: three actually hit. But I will say this, if you
Speaker 1: cashed out there during that wacky comeback of Minnesota, if
Speaker 1: you hung into that Minnesota game and you're watching live,
Speaker 1: and this is one of those things you can do.
Speaker 1: If you put a game that's in the late slate,
Speaker 1: if you win the first two, you can kind of wash.
Speaker 1: You can cash out. If you're feeling good about it,
Speaker 1: you could wait. So I was waiting. It was going down,
Speaker 1: and then it started to go up again. I just
Speaker 1: cashed out. I was like, okay, let me get out
Speaker 1: on a high note before and I want to leave
Speaker 1: this the chance. If you did that, you still made
Speaker 1: out pretty good yesterday. Today, I want to put together
Speaker 1: get ready for it. I know it's Louis Castillo. I
Speaker 1: think after all those runs last night, I think Boston
Speaker 1: responds a little bit. I'm gonna go Red Sox on
Speaker 1: the money line plus one thirty eight, getting a huge
Speaker 1: number on this. I know it's against Castillo, but I
Speaker 1: was pretty good with these upsets, pretty good yesterday with
Speaker 1: the upset two Manoa is owning the Yankees his whole career.
Speaker 1: We went opo yesterday Saint Louis Cardinals again with Montgomery.
Speaker 1: This is a heavy minus. Put this along with the
Speaker 1: Parlay and the Texas Rangers and Dane Dunning against Schuster
Speaker 1: and the Braves minus one zero six. I love that
Speaker 1: one today on separate so I would go Red Sox separately,
Speaker 1: Rangers separately. Don't bet Saint Louis because the juice is
Speaker 1: too much. If you put the Red Sox, Cards and
Speaker 1: Rangers all together, three leg parlay, you get six to one. Boom,
Speaker 1: get ten bucks on that, you win sixty. It's a
Speaker 1: good day. You take the family out for I don't know,
Speaker 1: for Rita's and pizza or something like that. Justin Verlander,
Speaker 1: six and a half. K's going the under against Stampa.
Speaker 1: Luis Castillo. Four and a half is a very small number.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go the over. You're getting heavy juice, but
Speaker 1: that's okay, and I'm looking for a big game at
Speaker 1: a Kershaw tonight and a half. K's minus one thirty.
Speaker 1: He has been absolutely spectacular. If you put those three
Speaker 1: together two you can get six to one on those
Speaker 1: three that I just mentioned. Also if you want to
Speaker 1: play them separately or together. Wels, what do you have
Speaker 1: for the people here? On Tuesday's betting line?
Speaker 2: All right, I got four plays today that I was
Speaker 2: cooking up last night. Number one my favorite, the you
Speaker 2: know got you guys to know I love the team
Speaker 2: total runs through the first five innings. My play for
Speaker 2: the day on that is the Texas Rangers, who you
Speaker 2: mentioned on the money line going up against Jared Schuster
Speaker 2: loves to give up five runs or more in five innings,
Speaker 2: so I'm gonna go with two and a half runs.
Speaker 2: It's about minus one ten right now, so two and
Speaker 2: a half runs over first five Texas Rangers. I also
Speaker 2: am gonna go with the Angels Baltimore over through the
Speaker 2: first five, which is at five. You've got Silseth and
Speaker 2: Kremer up there, and both those guys are going to
Speaker 2: get hit up a bet. I think the Angels are
Speaker 2: gonna I was tempted to go with the Angels team
Speaker 2: total runs as well, but I went with the over
Speaker 2: through the first five, which is five runs that is
Speaker 2: minus one A couple props. I like Luis Ortiz today
Speaker 2: going up against the Tigers four and a half strikeouts.
Speaker 2: He didn't hit that in his first start. He was
Speaker 2: still trying to get acclimated. I think he'll get there.
Speaker 2: Tigers like to strike out minus one to ten. I'm
Speaker 2: looking for five strikeouts from Louise Ortiz, and I got
Speaker 2: a hits parlay Ali Richman, Jose Ramirez get one hit.
Speaker 2: It's essentially even money. It's minus one oh four. So
Speaker 2: Adley Ramirez one hit each BAM. Pair those together and
Speaker 2: I placed a little bet bet down on that one.
Speaker 2: So those are my four plays for the day.
Speaker 1: I had an initial instinct this morning when I got
Speaker 1: up and looking at the slate and I know, you
Speaker 1: know Kershaw and see people mentioning it in the chat too,
Speaker 1: that you know Kershaw's mom passed away this weekend was
Speaker 1: Mother's Day. Very emotional thing, very close relationship. Sometimes that
Speaker 1: works to people's favors and there's like a special moment
Speaker 1: that happens. Sometimes it's just a lot going on. So
Speaker 1: I mean, Kershaw is the ultimate professional, so I imagine
Speaker 1: it's going to be probably more the former than the ladder.
Speaker 1: But speaking of ladders, is this a ladder bet opportunity?
Speaker 1: See what I did there where maybe Kershaw has a
Speaker 1: really special game tonight against a Minnesota team that strikes
Speaker 1: out A's Tony.
Speaker 2: It's definitely a possibility, I mean.
Speaker 1: Really tempting to me.
Speaker 2: I could see doing it. And if you did it,
Speaker 2: if it's at seven and a half, go back to
Speaker 2: what we talked about before seven is where you go
Speaker 2: and you put your two units. You do your unit
Speaker 2: and a half or unit on the eight, and then
Speaker 2: you do a half a unit on nine, and then
Speaker 2: or you know, you can adjust it however you want
Speaker 2: between two units down to a quarter unit, you can
Speaker 2: play it. I have a hard time with like kersh
Speaker 2: on numbers. They don't quite add up to me this
Speaker 2: year where I want to play them. I'm looking for
Speaker 2: more of an edge. This actually might be the thing
Speaker 2: that jumps up to everybody is kind of that extra
Speaker 2: edge then a little extra push, so you could do it.
Speaker 2: I'm not but I do think you might be able
Speaker 2: to easily cast your top units, which is like your core,
Speaker 2: and that kind of buys you. That buys you the
Speaker 2: ability to play those others out.
Speaker 1: So if you got heavy, if you have enough capital,
Speaker 1: you can do the six. Then like you said, do
Speaker 1: the seven, I wouldn't go to double digits. I would
Speaker 1: do six to seven, eight nine. I think that's the rate.
Speaker 2: The problem is six is going to be juiced to
Speaker 2: probably like two fifty or three hundred or something.
Speaker 1: Certain number depends on your capital, depends on what you're
Speaker 1: working with here. I like this Faby is here, who
Speaker 1: also said that I think you said earlier something about
Speaker 1: ping songs are very relatable to me, and they are,
Speaker 1: and Faby joining us here. He used to listen to
Speaker 1: the podcast or she. I don't know who Faby is,
Speaker 1: a male or a woman, but Faby is its own entity.
Speaker 1: Used to listen to the podcast version now every day
Speaker 1: here in the chat because the chat is can't miss
Speaker 1: see the peanuts and the cracker Jacks very popular. You
Speaker 1: know what else is popular? Welsh? I know Welsh loves it.

Speaker 1: Wonkey seeing three Pink three times this summer. I am
Speaker 1: also I'm going to be seeing her for the third time.
Speaker 1: Actually I've seen her twice already. She's great, It's terrific.
Speaker 1: She sings better upside down than most people do standing up.
Speaker 1: Unbelievable DFS picks. Here we go for the day. Kevin
Speaker 1: Gosmen here's all right, we lay out the plan for everybody.
Speaker 1: Let me stop, let me pump the brakes. Okay, So
Speaker 1: here's today's plan. There's the high range starting pitchers right
Speaker 1: on the main slate. Then there's a couple mid tier
Speaker 1: guys that are interesting, and then there's the punt starting
Speaker 1: pitching and go boss to the wall offense in spots
Speaker 1: like Colorado, Cincinnati and a couple other games. Seattle also
Speaker 1: could potentially, you know, in Boston, have some runs there. Well,
Speaker 1: maybe more of the Seattle side again, but here we go.
Speaker 1: Kevin Gosman eleven, k, Verlander ten point eight, Castillo a
Speaker 1: ten point two. Now I prefer the Verlander Gossman again.
Speaker 1: You can kind of swap them out. But if you
Speaker 1: go down the peg a little bit, you have interesting
Speaker 1: mid tier. And there's a ton today of four outcome
Speaker 1: games where good pictures are going against each other, like
Speaker 1: Steel's been very good. You want to go Apo against
Speaker 1: Christian Javier, You could do that. There's lots of ways
Speaker 1: to win tournaments today or at least kind of move
Speaker 1: up the chart, but you've got to be different today.
Speaker 1: Zach Wheeler nine point four, another one of those matchups.
Speaker 1: But I would go on that side of that matchup.
Speaker 1: Jordan Montgomery at eight point six, very cost effective, but
Speaker 1: Dame Dunning is just six point a k. Fascinating play
Speaker 1: today against I think a little bit of a vulnerable
Speaker 1: Braves team right now with Shuster on the mount. So
Speaker 1: he's a fascinating one to get you all the offense
Speaker 1: you want, Mets, Cincinnati, Saint Louis, Colorado, all those bats,
Speaker 1: whatever you want to play there values today cal Rawley
Speaker 1: Matt McClain two k. Again, if you need to go
Speaker 1: up the board to verlind Or Gossman, Matt McClain is
Speaker 1: the one to do it. And Francisco Alvarez two point four.
Speaker 1: Would you think of Matt McLain yesterday and get seen
Speaker 1: a highlights him?
Speaker 2: Yep, he is double. When his first hit was a monster.
Speaker 2: It was an absolute monster. You could see the speed
Speaker 2: in full force.
Speaker 1: He looked pretty good.
Speaker 2: I will point out, though, what's the one thing I said?
Speaker 2: I said, like he likes to hit high pitches and
Speaker 2: low is what I'm worried about. And he smacked a
Speaker 2: high sk the.
Speaker 1: Same thing as the younger sister in the league of
Speaker 1: their own. She likes the high ones.
Speaker 2: That's pretty much Matt and he likes the high ones.
Speaker 2: He was able to smack a slider up high and
Speaker 2: he showed off his speed and he was hitting two.
Speaker 2: I love that he was hitting two. That's my thing.
Speaker 1: Now I'm staying on brand for my home run call today,
Speaker 1: I'm going Paul Goldschmid who for prize picks. I'm also
Speaker 1: going in the over on the fantasy score. If we
Speaker 1: look at the board yesterday and it's more home runs
Speaker 1: Prime Time up to sixteen cows and at fourteen the
Speaker 1: Welsh still on the board at ten. You're like, I
Speaker 1: feel like you're hanging on there, just like on a cliff.
Speaker 1: Your head's right above the cliff. You're right there, Welsh,
Speaker 1: but we could see you, and of course we want
Speaker 1: to see you joining this contest because we're still giving
Speaker 1: away fabulous prizes every month. So join today Fantasypros dot Com,
Speaker 1: slash Chat, join our Discord Premium membership gets your entry
Speaker 1: into the home run channel. A Welsh, where are you
Speaker 1: going for your home run call today?
Speaker 2: Gonna go with our boy Adley Retchman. Worm will be
Speaker 2: very proud of me Adley hits and I believe it's
Speaker 2: five of his last six games, he has a homer
Speaker 2: in there. He does a lot of his damage against Righty's.
Speaker 2: Five of his six homers have come against Rdy's. Silk
Speaker 2: Seth is going to be in there. I don't know
Speaker 2: how long he last. I think there's going to be
Speaker 2: runs scored in this game, and I think Adley is
Speaker 2: going to get a big fly and get me to twelve.
Speaker 2: Give me a little breathing room on that list.
Speaker 1: All right, let's take one more question from the Peanuts
Speaker 1: and Cracker Jacks Anthony x C seven. Hey, guys, lacking
Speaker 1: a third base and second base, heavy on outfield? Should
Speaker 1: I try to swap Rooker for Boom? Or will Rooker
Speaker 1: keep this up? And that's from Anthony. What do you think, Welsh?
Speaker 2: So is it you would be dropping Boom to pick up?
Speaker 1: I think it's a it's either a trade or a waiver,
Speaker 1: obviously one of them.
Speaker 2: I don't really want to drop Boom. I think, you know,
Speaker 2: there's slump things that are happening here.
Speaker 1: But he wants to get Boom is what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: He's got he's heavy out Oh yeah, heavy on outfield.
Speaker 2: I do think Rooker can continue this to some degree.
Speaker 1: But it's not gonna be power but no content. I'm
Speaker 1: not buying the content.
Speaker 2: And he might have more homers than RBI at the
Speaker 2: end of the year with how the a's are, so yeah,
Speaker 2: you can easily make that move. I thought it was
Speaker 2: like inverse.
Speaker 1: That's okay, you get it, you get your passes. I
Speaker 1: understand how that. Thanks thanks for giving me my pass
Speaker 1: Now you're welcome. But it's a good betting night tonight.
Speaker 1: A lot of fun things to put together. Again. We
Speaker 1: went through the strikeouts props. There's a lot of good
Speaker 1: stuff there. Went through another upset special tonight on top
Speaker 1: of another parlay special tonight. So money to be made
Speaker 1: in the wagering, money to be made in the fantasy. Tomorrow,
Speaker 1: I think we'll have a little bit more time to
Speaker 1: get to some of the movement. I thought we would
Speaker 1: get to it today, but we really did in terms
Speaker 1: of the prospect pipeline. I want to get Welsh's thoughts
Speaker 1: on a couple of those guys for those of you
Speaker 1: who play in the dynasty leagues of the deeper leagues,
Speaker 1: because it's fun and that's what you know. We gotta do.
Speaker 1: We gotta take hardcore lookies at those rookies, so that'll
Speaker 1: do it for us for the story of the game
Speaker 1: goes on. For the Welsh, I'm Joey P. We'll see
Speaker 1: you next time. Kids,
