Did we 0:00:36.800 --> 0:00:52.480 just become best friends? Fantasy best Friends forever? Our number two? 0:00:52.560 --> 0:00:56.080 Fantasy best friends forever? Fantasy Sports Radio Network Frank Stample, 0:00:56.160 --> 0:00:58.840 Gregg Soustern now joined, as we are each every day 0:00:59.160 --> 0:01:02.560 our number two. But the closer, Chris, what's up? What's up? 0:01:02.640 --> 0:01:05.800 It's your boy? Yes, I had a draft last night. 0:01:07.600 --> 0:01:13.080 I did. I almost forgotten and it to big league 0:01:13.080 --> 0:01:18.280 though drawls last night, the big time draft. The money 0:01:18.440 --> 0:01:21.240 is but you know, the players in the game are 0:01:21.280 --> 0:01:24.600 like local Jabronis and stuff. You know what them? Oh yeah, 0:01:24.640 --> 0:01:29.839 pretty much. I pretty much dominated his team. It's pretty leagues. 0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:32.600 I mean, everyone might be stacked, but he basically put 0:01:32.600 --> 0:01:36.200 these Gabronis through tables I'm here. Are you ready? You're 0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:38.120 really ready for this? I don't. I don't think you're 0:01:38.120 --> 0:01:40.360 ready for this. I don't think you read alright. So 0:01:40.480 --> 0:01:44.000 I catcher. I got Danny Jansen right first base, Matt 0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:47.880 Olsen second base, Javier Baya's third base, Jose Ramirez shortstop, 0:01:47.920 --> 0:01:52.160 Corey Seeger. I'll field one, Ronald Kuna Jr. I'll field two, 0:01:52.200 --> 0:01:55.040 William Myers if I field three, Michael Brantley, I'll feel four, 0:01:55.160 --> 0:01:59.160 Victor Roblez utility at a bertelmondency, and then I got 0:01:59.200 --> 0:02:03.440 black Ground Junior and Nick Senzel. We're gonna rotate that 0:02:03.520 --> 0:02:06.440 out and then listen to the pitching, because you know, 0:02:06.480 --> 0:02:08.320 you would think the pitching wouldn't be maybe as good. 0:02:08.360 --> 0:02:14.160 But I got Colls Carrascom Clevinger, Zach Wheeler, Shane Bieber, Indians, baby, 0:02:14.280 --> 0:02:17.840 a lot of Indians. I got three Indians starting pitches. 0:02:18.000 --> 0:02:21.920 I got Roberto Sona, Jose Alvarado and Michael Givens as 0:02:21.960 --> 0:02:24.840 my closes. I got also Joey Lucazy, Chris Paddock, Joe 0:02:24.919 --> 0:02:29.560 must Grove, Sean Newcom and Domingo Herman. It's very good team. 0:02:29.560 --> 0:02:32.360 You like that team, right? So I think you know, 0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:34.200 a lot of people might be still gonna have better pitching. 0:02:34.639 --> 0:02:36.640 Teams will have better pitching. I think teams have better hitting. 0:02:37.240 --> 0:02:39.080 The Paddick lives up to his upside of him. You 0:02:39.080 --> 0:02:41.520 have like a top thirty starter right there too. And 0:02:41.560 --> 0:02:43.120 I let all the Indians, guy, I'm excited for you. 0:02:43.320 --> 0:02:45.720 Bieber on the mound last night, Greig, did you know 0:02:45.880 --> 0:02:49.120 last year when they do the nickname weekend he said 0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:56.400 not Justin? Did actually did actually do? And Bieber not Justin? 0:02:58.080 --> 0:03:00.160 And get him last night, which I'm not. I'm not 0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:01.600 gonna end up with any shares of Biber in it 0:03:02.120 --> 0:03:03.720 my heart. He's kept in one of my home leagues 0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:07.400 Morrow Night. Moor Night is one of my home leagues, 0:03:07.760 --> 0:03:10.000 and I don't think he's kept there. He's kept my 0:03:10.000 --> 0:03:12.560 other That's what I was going for. I gotta have 0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:14.960 at least one share of That's why I got biased too. 0:03:15.000 --> 0:03:18.440 I got him in the fourth night, five innings, two 0:03:18.480 --> 0:03:23.120 earned runs. Yeah, he's gonna be He's gonna be one. 0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:25.440 You know, I did see. I saw a tweet from 0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:29.440 Vlad Sandler, friend of the program with Fantasy grew Elite 0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:32.800 that he was basically saying the helium on Shane Bieber 0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:36.040 is getting out of control, Greg like, there's not not 0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:38.440 margin for here. Here's the tweet. I'll read it to you. Listen. 0:03:38.440 --> 0:03:40.240 I love Bieber as much as the next guy, Shane, 0:03:40.240 --> 0:03:42.600 not justin, but this helium is getting out of control. 0:03:42.680 --> 0:03:46.200 January a DP of one five is now one fifteen, 0:03:46.720 --> 0:03:48.880 and he made crack the top one hundred in Vegas 0:03:48.960 --> 0:03:52.000 this weekend. Have all the main main event drafts. This 0:03:52.080 --> 0:03:54.960 is not a misdirection tweet. Babs is fully priced with 0:03:55.080 --> 0:03:59.240 little margin for error. True, where's goings? What I'm talking 0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:01.040 about when he goes in the six round last night, 0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:04.320 those inside the top ninety picks, I didn't expect it, 0:04:04.360 --> 0:04:06.720 you know, called me off guard. It's awesome. He is 0:04:06.760 --> 0:04:10.680 kind of awesome. It's just saying it's to headlines. You're 0:04:10.680 --> 0:04:13.480 going my draft. Let's do the headlines. Don't worry. Great, 0:04:13.480 --> 0:04:15.800 we'll have time for your draft guarantee. Like you're just 0:04:15.800 --> 0:04:18.400 trying to knock knock time out. So I really want 0:04:18.400 --> 0:04:20.279 to talk about Walker Bueller and stuff from last night. 0:04:20.320 --> 0:04:22.440 I think it's the right hand, my friend, are you 0:04:22.480 --> 0:04:25.960 not intrigued by Walker Bueller? You don't want to, I'm 0:04:26.000 --> 0:04:28.360 asking you to tell me about right. So, coming into 0:04:28.440 --> 0:04:31.640 last night, the docter said they wanted him to throw 0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:35.400 either thirty five pitches or three innings. It's starting now. 0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:38.240 He gets up to forty pitches in two and two 0:04:38.240 --> 0:04:41.159 thirds endings pitched. You'll see the turned run allowed that 0:04:41.240 --> 0:04:43.760 actually was that came after he left the game because 0:04:43.760 --> 0:04:45.240 he left the game with a man on first base 0:04:45.560 --> 0:04:47.520 and the bullpen gave up a few hits, ended up 0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:49.680 giving up the run, but it was charged to Bueller 0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:51.680 had to strikeouts in two and two thirds and he 0:04:51.800 --> 0:04:57.679 pitched and he reached nine on the gun, buts innings 0:04:58.120 --> 0:05:00.720 he wasn't very efficient. But I think just the fact 0:05:00.760 --> 0:05:03.320 that he touched ninety hour, they let him go forty 0:05:03.360 --> 0:05:06.800 five pitches. I think that's exactly what you needed to 0:05:06.800 --> 0:05:11.000 see from Walker. Brewler. Yeah, I think seemed healthy, seemed 0:05:11.080 --> 0:05:14.200 touched ninety eight. As you mentioned, no result really mattered 0:05:14.200 --> 0:05:15.919 to me. He was just he was pitching and he 0:05:16.000 --> 0:05:18.280 was healthy. He felt hitting that velascit and he didn't 0:05:18.320 --> 0:05:20.720 like feel weird, didn't feel weird about it. That's the 0:05:20.760 --> 0:05:24.520 important thing. No walks as usual, of course, five innings, 0:05:25.320 --> 0:05:27.680 two earned runs to home runs. I was watching the 0:05:28.279 --> 0:05:30.080 came in the same ending one to polic want to 0:05:30.240 --> 0:05:32.040 Russell Martin of al he's got to stop pounding the 0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:36.520 strikes on too much. Strike Yeah, if this guy just 0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:39.360 gets a little bit more wild and you don't originally 0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:43.000 want to say it's about a picture he's got effectively, Yeah, 0:05:43.040 --> 0:05:46.880 he's got to do it on his own. Wanting to 0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:49.560 do it pitch outside the strikes, wanting to make you know, 0:05:49.640 --> 0:05:52.040 hitters chase pitches because he pounds his on too much. 0:05:52.040 --> 0:05:53.559 That's why he gives up to many homeless. It doesn't 0:05:53.560 --> 0:05:56.680 walk anybody, but he lives in the zone. He gotta 0:05:56.680 --> 0:05:58.640 wipe out sliders. So what he's gotta do is just 0:05:59.240 --> 0:06:00.800 make that look like a coming in the zone and 0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:02.880 throw it out of the zone. You, I mean, you 0:06:02.880 --> 0:06:04.960 can use it if you waste pitches, all right, So 0:06:05.040 --> 0:06:07.560 what if you walk Bryce Harper, that's not the worst. Like, 0:06:07.600 --> 0:06:09.320 if you're oh to on a guy, let Bryce Harper 0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:10.800 beat you. You're oh to on a guy. This is 0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:12.280 like a golden rule when I was pitching when I 0:06:12.320 --> 0:06:14.440 was young, is he don't throw the ball anywhere close 0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:17.000 to the strike zone. Nowhere close. You make this guy 0:06:17.080 --> 0:06:19.480 chase you change his eye level and if you've been 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:23.200 throwing low, throwing high changes eye level thro out, Yeah, 0:06:23.240 --> 0:06:25.440 you gotta switch it up. Otherwise these guys are just 0:06:26.200 --> 0:06:28.240 you gotta make You gotta adjust to them, man, and 0:06:28.279 --> 0:06:30.480 make sure that they they're off balance. You can't just 0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:32.560 be oh, I'm Shane baby, I'm gonna throw in the zone. 0:06:33.000 --> 0:06:36.760 Your stuff could be as nasty as the next person. Like, 0:06:37.000 --> 0:06:39.400 you know, you could have Randy Johnson type stuff if 0:06:39.400 --> 0:06:42.360 you just live in the zone. I mean, eventually, these 0:06:42.360 --> 0:06:44.680 are major leagu hitters, they're gonna crush you. They're gonna 0:06:44.720 --> 0:06:46.200 eventually they're gonna crush you if you just live in 0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:48.280 the zone. In Randy Johnson, what made him so great 0:06:48.320 --> 0:06:50.360 is you know, he was effectively wild. I mean at 0:06:50.400 --> 0:06:51.640 the time he didn't know where the ball was going. 0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:53.279 Plus he was scary to look at because you're so 0:06:53.360 --> 0:06:55.120 tall on the mound. You're seeing the video of him 0:06:55.160 --> 0:07:01.880 killing the bird. You've seen it many times, many many times. 0:07:02.520 --> 0:07:05.560 This had even happened, I would love for it's a 0:07:05.600 --> 0:07:09.560 one in like a million. A scientist or some kind 0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:13.880 of math major statistics analysis come in and what are 0:07:13.880 --> 0:07:18.440 the chances Randy Johnson, So I've actually read this, I 0:07:18.480 --> 0:07:22.040 don't know the answer. It's like it's like, actually read 0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:26.760 you have a better I don't remember. Yeah, real it's 0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:31.040 something super super wild like that. Yeah, it's not possible. 0:07:31.080 --> 0:07:34.760 So a little last night for you. That game was awesome. 0:07:35.000 --> 0:07:38.440 Joe with a mustache, our guy friend of the program. Actually, 0:07:38.480 --> 0:07:40.520 he's going to be in town during wrestle many a week. 0:07:40.520 --> 0:07:43.000 He's going to like every wrestling event that weekends. Actually 0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:45.400 wants to meet up and grabbing and I'll talk to 0:07:45.440 --> 0:07:48.160 you about it. But um, you know he's gonna follow 0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:51.560 the rules, right, he's joined He's joined the Patreon fold 0:07:51.600 --> 0:07:54.640 the rules. Yeah, I mean yeah, he wants to take 0:07:54.720 --> 0:07:56.960 him something off her. But he was beating back and 0:07:56.960 --> 0:07:59.440 forth with me last night because he was enjoying the 0:07:59.480 --> 0:08:02.160 Dodgers Indians as well. I never thought that I would 0:08:02.160 --> 0:08:03.920 be that into a spring training game, but I would 0:08:04.840 --> 0:08:10.000 alongside drafting Andleton Timmins, Greg, I was watching Walker Bueller, 0:08:10.280 --> 0:08:16.720 I was drafting and watching Belmont because this is big 0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:21.240 for the Belmont Stakes. He for I'm gonna sit there 0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:24.000 and watched. You probably just stayed for this venture. You 0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:27.680 watch me watch my team is like a disaster. Bruins. 0:08:28.000 --> 0:08:30.760 Let's go Bruins, and he's gonna do this the whole time. 0:08:30.760 --> 0:08:32.440 I'm gonna hit him in the face. When is the 0:08:32.440 --> 0:08:36.600 game three Tan on Thursday, the Bruins versus the last year? 0:08:36.800 --> 0:08:41.400 So last year I'm gonna I'm gonna survivor. I'm gonna 0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:43.680 survivor by March Madness pool. And like I had to, 0:08:43.720 --> 0:08:46.040 I have somebody and I have money on the line, right, 0:08:46.520 --> 0:08:48.920 and I'm I'm picking you pick a team? You do 0:08:48.960 --> 0:08:50.959 you play the survivor of March Madness. I don't. I 0:08:50.960 --> 0:08:53.000 don't play survival much. Man play the regular back, right, 0:08:53.040 --> 0:08:55.440 So the survier's best, right, you gotta pick a team 0:08:55.440 --> 0:08:57.360 of day every day. All I gonna just win out 0:08:57.400 --> 0:08:59.800 right on Thursday and Friday. I got a two teams. 0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:02.199 So I'm in this pool. Chance to win you a 0:09:02.240 --> 0:09:06.360 couple of thousand dollars? Sound great? Right? I'm sitting there 0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:08.800 like we need for my team to win to advance, 0:09:10.040 --> 0:09:16.720 and he's sitting there in my face against me. No, 0:09:16.920 --> 0:09:20.920 I picked up my bracket. I think actually bet on 0:09:20.960 --> 0:09:23.120 the other team. Greig, you just tind to pick from 0:09:23.120 --> 0:09:25.640 gay more untilast and you just picked him in your bracket. Well, 0:09:25.679 --> 0:09:27.240 I think I actually bet on the one of them, 0:09:27.480 --> 0:09:28.960 what have the you been on? What have the you 0:09:28.960 --> 0:09:29.920 been on the other one? He didn't. One of the 0:09:29.920 --> 0:09:31.680 reason I was runing against you, Greg, is because you're 0:09:31.720 --> 0:09:34.080 being so obnoxious. That's what I do when I watch games. 0:09:34.240 --> 0:09:36.120 I wanted to see the game, and you're standing in 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:40.120 front of the TV. I'm like, dude, I want to 0:09:40.120 --> 0:09:41.840 watch the game, and you're standing in front the TV. 0:09:42.320 --> 0:09:45.400 So like, like I said, I'm gonna get your team. 0:09:45.760 --> 0:09:49.280 Like I said, you don't want when Maryland happens on Thursday, 0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:51.240 You're not gonna want to be That's how you You're 0:09:51.240 --> 0:09:52.560 not gonna want to be around. I got some stuff 0:09:52.600 --> 0:09:55.280 to edit anyway, so perfect you have head I'm probably 0:09:55.320 --> 0:10:02.320 gonna go borth through your headphones can bars Thursday. The 0:10:02.320 --> 0:10:04.680 first half do I want to want want the NBA 0:10:04.720 --> 0:10:07.360 Fantasy deally like the first half of it. I mean, 0:10:07.559 --> 0:10:09.160 I don't know what I'm supposed to do, but I 0:10:09.160 --> 0:10:13.240 guess I'll do it. I'll try. I'm down for whatever 0:10:13.360 --> 0:10:17.480 really come in. My slacker, you know, would be slacking 0:10:17.480 --> 0:10:22.839 meant like this, Yeah, he should be. That's why I 0:10:22.960 --> 0:10:26.240 want to do it. Just three questions are the way 0:10:26.280 --> 0:10:29.880 we got you back. We do anyway, that's sitting here. 0:10:31.600 --> 0:10:34.400 You were watching Maryland last week too, but it wasn't 0:10:34.440 --> 0:10:38.959 the tournament was ten tournament. But it doesn't matter. Maryland's 0:10:38.960 --> 0:10:43.720 not winning it anyway. Are you picking Maryland in them? Why? 0:10:44.080 --> 0:10:45.719 Is it just because you want to go against Greg? No, 0:10:45.960 --> 0:10:49.400 it's because knowledge that I have learned everything that Greg 0:10:49.440 --> 0:10:52.000 has told me. I don't know much about college basketball, 0:10:51.880 --> 0:10:54.120 so I try to pick up a little bits here 0:10:54.120 --> 0:10:57.719 and there. I hear Gabe talk about some games. I'll 0:10:57.720 --> 0:11:00.880 try to use that to my to my knowledge. Last week, 0:11:01.160 --> 0:11:05.680 told me how how bad Maryland lost in Nebraska last week? Okay, 0:11:05.720 --> 0:11:07.840 if they're that bad, then they're probably gonna lose to Belmont. 0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:15.560 Belmont is not very good. You have taught me, and 0:11:15.559 --> 0:11:18.199 I'm using it to my advantage. You told me, quote, 0:11:18.200 --> 0:11:25.600 Maryland sucks, Let's go Bruins. It's not right, right, all right, 0:11:25.679 --> 0:11:27.320 it's not right you did you picked Belmont. You could 0:11:27.360 --> 0:11:29.520 like lose that money on lose that one game in 0:11:29.559 --> 0:11:33.520 the bracket. Who cares one game? It's not a bracketbus 0:11:33.760 --> 0:11:41.240 bracketbuss game. Merland's is six in Belmont's eleven too. I mean, 0:11:41.280 --> 0:11:44.160 like you know, you could have just went married. Still 0:11:44.679 --> 0:11:47.480 still can't shock the world. Shocking the world. Everybody in 0:11:47.480 --> 0:11:52.839 their mothers on Belmont. How does that make you feel? Great? Not? Great? 0:11:54.240 --> 0:11:57.320 Baseball items? These are not really don't care. What are 0:11:57.320 --> 0:12:01.280 you reading about Syracuse over there? I mean reading Maryland? No, 0:12:01.360 --> 0:12:04.360 I'm focused on the show. Really all right, So what 0:12:04.400 --> 0:12:06.760 do you want to talk about? Next? Items you want 0:12:06.760 --> 0:12:08.600 to talk about? You think Craig Kimberal is gonna land 0:12:08.600 --> 0:12:11.000 with the Brewers, Greg, I think it's really I didn't 0:12:11.000 --> 0:12:15.400 think so. But really interesting report last night, Really interesting 0:12:15.440 --> 0:12:18.160 from Ken Rosenthal. He's meeting with the Brewers. I was 0:12:18.160 --> 0:12:20.319 starting to get a little more interested in Corey Knables. Yeah, 0:12:20.360 --> 0:12:23.000 he went early in my draft last night. So good 0:12:23.000 --> 0:12:26.040 thing we didn't get Corey Nable last night. Kimbral's gotta 0:12:26.040 --> 0:12:29.000 sign somewhere because this is getting ridiculous. So those is 0:12:29.040 --> 0:12:32.200 about to start. I haven't drafted Kimberrill anywhere because I 0:12:32.200 --> 0:12:35.120 worried about And even if they say, oh, well we're 0:12:35.320 --> 0:12:37.800 maintaining a throwing program, we're gonna be fine for the 0:12:37.840 --> 0:12:40.199 season we're to start today, I don't trust it. Man. 0:12:40.679 --> 0:12:47.200 There it's different when it comes to actually ain't live 0:12:47.240 --> 0:12:50.200 game actions like simulating live game like you can't. You 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:52.559 can't just do that. You can't just throw somewhere else, 0:12:52.960 --> 0:12:56.840 and you know have have that similar type of experience 0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:59.080 as actual game actions. So the fact that Craig Kimberal 0:12:59.080 --> 0:13:01.680 hasn't pitched yet, it worries me a lot. You draft 0:13:01.720 --> 0:13:06.280 him anywhere? No, you're off. Yeah, I'm not touching that. 0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:09.679 Like he hasn't pitched at all, because I hear him 0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:11.680 here Kaikos, you know, throwing. He's trying to get a 0:13:11.679 --> 0:13:14.720 spring training and he might be pitching. That's what I'm 0:13:14.760 --> 0:13:16.840 trying to say, is he's not pitching in games. You know, 0:13:18.160 --> 0:13:21.520 you need that behind everybody else. I worry about that. 0:13:21.559 --> 0:13:23.880 And plus, if you look at some of the underlying 0:13:23.960 --> 0:13:27.960 numbers last year, actually regress a little. That's where he was. 0:13:28.200 --> 0:13:31.440 He's old. He's a little bit older. Look, he's not 0:13:31.400 --> 0:13:35.440 gonna get the contract he wants, clearly not. He's still 0:13:35.480 --> 0:13:39.560 lingering what happens? The season starts in a week? What 0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:44.240 are we doing? The season starts a week from tomorrow? Correct, Well, 0:13:44.280 --> 0:13:46.760 it actually started last night. He did last night. There 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:52.400 is bombs away in Tokyo. Last I woke up. I 0:13:52.440 --> 0:13:55.400 woke up to my man Domingo Santana hitting a grand Slam. 0:13:55.440 --> 0:13:58.400 I woke up to Chris Davis jack for the third 0:13:58.400 --> 0:14:04.640 consecutive Opening Day HUNKERB Bowl, Steven MSCOTTI with a bomb. 0:14:04.880 --> 0:14:08.520 My favorite player on the on the A'snt Chapman with 0:14:08.600 --> 0:14:12.000 a bomb, Tim Beckham with a bomb. Gordon with a 0:14:12.040 --> 0:14:19.520 stolen bassam brief for three too interested? Hey, you want 0:14:19.520 --> 0:14:22.120 to talk about only the guy has a job? Told 0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:24.600 you by the way, I told you JP Crawford first 0:14:24.600 --> 0:14:29.960 picking that draft. He thinks in the draft, bad draft, 0:14:30.720 --> 0:14:34.120 side down draft. I will say this, Greg, Matt Chapman 0:14:34.400 --> 0:14:37.640 was obviously very worried about him. He looks like he's 0:14:37.640 --> 0:14:41.200 ready to go. You know, I was worried about the thumb, shoulder. 0:14:41.560 --> 0:14:43.960 He's gotten a few reps in spring training. He comes 0:14:43.960 --> 0:14:46.920 out here swinging first game of the season, home run, 0:14:47.000 --> 0:14:50.360 a double, two extra base hits, three RBIs. It's and 0:14:50.400 --> 0:14:54.680 this isn't just me reacting to one game. This is okay. 0:14:54.760 --> 0:14:57.360 He's swinging the bat and looks healthy doing so. That's 0:14:57.400 --> 0:14:59.360 what I'm taking away from this. Do you remember when 0:14:59.400 --> 0:15:01.440 we did the third is preview, Greg, what I said 0:15:01.440 --> 0:15:04.160 about Matt Chapman was this is what I needed to see. 0:15:04.760 --> 0:15:06.360 So if you have drafts coming up in the next 0:15:06.400 --> 0:15:09.040 couple of days or over the weekend, I'm moving mattch 0:15:09.080 --> 0:15:12.400 Chapman up the board. I'm moving with rings because when 0:15:12.440 --> 0:15:14.440 I spoke about him, I was very high on him. 0:15:14.480 --> 0:15:17.240 I was very bullish on match Chatman. He made huge 0:15:17.760 --> 0:15:20.560 late discipline games last year venture where in the minors 0:15:20.760 --> 0:15:23.720 he would strike out a ton of the time, last 0:15:23.800 --> 0:15:25.800 year he walked a lot. I thought it was very surprising. 0:15:25.960 --> 0:15:28.680 He scored a hundred runs last year. This is a 0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:32.200 very underrated Oakland lineup. People might not realize it because 0:15:32.240 --> 0:15:35.080 they play in Oco and it's a big ballpark, and 0:15:35.440 --> 0:15:37.240 sometimes you want to stay away from some of these 0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:42.600 bigger ballparks. But Loriardo, Chapman, Piscotti, Chris Davis, Holsen, pro 0:15:42.720 --> 0:15:45.920 far Simian. This is a deep lineup. Do you have 0:15:45.920 --> 0:15:47.760 any shares of match Chapman? You in? I know you like. 0:15:48.000 --> 0:15:50.800 I love Mat Chapman. Problem is my home league. He 0:15:50.840 --> 0:15:52.520 was kept in like the twenty feet round, which was 0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:55.440 a great keep up. And yesterday I had I drifted 0:15:55.480 --> 0:15:57.840 Jose Ramiers at the fourth pick, so I didn't have 0:15:57.920 --> 0:16:00.200 that nief at their base and vlag Gerrero linger really 0:16:00.200 --> 0:16:01.800 long and he ended up being my like you till 0:16:02.360 --> 0:16:05.160 and so did Alberta Mondesie. Nobody jumped on those guys. 0:16:05.200 --> 0:16:07.480 I got him real late, so I couldn't get Chapman. 0:16:07.480 --> 0:16:10.440 There was no you know what I mean, better value. 0:16:11.440 --> 0:16:13.400 But I want him, so I'm gonna jump on him 0:16:13.480 --> 0:16:16.360 at some point. If we spoke about third based targets yesterday, 0:16:16.480 --> 0:16:18.160 Rendon is at the top of the list for me. 0:16:18.560 --> 0:16:24.640 But in those middle rounds, Chapman, uh, Justin Turner and Michaelmusakis. 0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:27.800 If I get one of those guys, yeah, I love. 0:16:27.880 --> 0:16:29.800 Those are the three in the middle rounds. I love. 0:16:29.920 --> 0:16:31.440 I love those guys. That is exactly what I needed 0:16:31.440 --> 0:16:35.200 to see, just to know that he's healthy, sea extremely well. Like. 0:16:35.200 --> 0:16:38.680 I think Chapman's better than Olson, like like, not much better, 0:16:38.720 --> 0:16:42.960 but significantly better for fantasy. They do different things. He 0:16:43.040 --> 0:16:45.560 walks a lot. Alston Wilson's batting average is gonna be 0:16:45.560 --> 0:16:47.680 a little bit lower than Chapman's right, and he walks 0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:49.920 more than cham has more power upside yes, because he 0:16:49.920 --> 0:16:53.520 could hit thirty probably in his prime. I think that 0:16:53.600 --> 0:16:55.960 Chapman could hit thirty plus though I think he could 0:16:56.000 --> 0:16:57.960 do it. Chapman could be like a two sixty two 0:16:58.040 --> 0:17:01.000 seventy hitter with dirty home runs. I think I think 0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:08.359 Olsen could be like two fifty. Similar last news items 0:17:08.400 --> 0:17:11.360 worth mentioning something that we speculated on the Cutcheon confirmed 0:17:11.480 --> 0:17:13.719 as a leadoff hitter for the Phillies. That was val 0:17:13.960 --> 0:17:16.639 saw that Caesar Hernandez I think six or seven in 0:17:16.640 --> 0:17:20.080 the line up for Philadelphia. McCutcheon the conduity he's been doing. 0:17:20.280 --> 0:17:22.440 It's good value where he's going right now for draft. 0:17:23.320 --> 0:17:31.160 Talking about my draft, we to that Daily rodo dot 0:17:31.200 --> 0:17:35.080 Com learned from the game's best DFS players.

My mom and dad used to fight about 0:18:03.359 --> 0:18:06.560 money all the time. Then one day I heard them 0:18:06.600 --> 0:18:10.000 talking about this guy, some uncle I never knew it, 0:18:10.200 --> 0:18:13.880 calls Uncle Sam. Well, they say this Uncle Sam guy 0:18:14.160 --> 0:18:17.879 wanted them to pay him like a gazillion dollars, and 0:18:17.960 --> 0:18:20.800 they didn't have a gazillion dollars. So they called this 0:18:20.880 --> 0:18:24.040 company they heard on the radio called the Tax Doctor, 0:18:24.280 --> 0:18:27.760 and the tax Doctor worked with Uncle Sam's people. I 0:18:27.800 --> 0:18:31.480 think they're called the I R S. And they're able 0:18:31.520 --> 0:18:33.600 to work it out, so my mom and dad didn't 0:18:33.600 --> 0:18:36.520 have to pay Uncle Sam very much money at all. 0:18:36.800 --> 0:18:39.760 So now mom and Dad are happy, and I'm happy 0:18:39.840 --> 0:18:43.919 to thanks Tax Doctor. If you owe ten thousand dollars 0:18:44.000 --> 0:18:46.120 or more to the I R S or state, call 0:18:46.280 --> 0:18:50.720 now and pay less eight hundred one five one seven 0:18:50.800 --> 0:18:54.919 to seven eight hundred to one five one, seven to seven. 0:18:55.280 --> 0:19:01.680 That's eight hundred five seventy seven.

That's when you know you've got a 0:19:07.960 --> 0:19:11.520 gambling proul Baldolf you just sentured you at the buffet. 0:19:11.600 --> 0:19:12.919 Let's say you want a little bit of everything, but 0:19:12.920 --> 0:19:15.359 then you get an upset stomach. After right, you can 0:19:15.520 --> 0:19:18.880 cattle there everything. Why did I get every barrel? Why 0:19:18.880 --> 0:19:21.080 did I get the twenty scar parrel game? I know 0:19:21.160 --> 0:19:23.159 I could have still had leftovers with the twelve but 0:19:23.240 --> 0:19:25.240 you know what I mean, Like week days four pm 0:19:25.240 --> 0:19:29.040 Eastern one pm Pacific only on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. 0:19:29.760 --> 0:19:32.320 Joined the Experts live on the air every day by 0:19:32.320 --> 0:19:35.720 calling in at April four, six, seven nine to join 0:19:35.800 --> 0:19:55.560 the Fantasy Sports Network. So I've been, uh, ask you 0:19:55.600 --> 0:19:57.919 yes or most now at my draft? What do I do? 0:19:59.480 --> 0:20:03.399 But just have the last night and did exactly according 0:20:03.440 --> 0:20:07.679 to plan? Mm hmm. Are you upset with anything? I 0:20:07.720 --> 0:20:09.200 looked I was upset, and I think it was just 0:20:09.200 --> 0:20:11.320 because I was upset about our draft last night. I 0:20:11.359 --> 0:20:15.159 had so much going on. I was more upset that 0:20:15.280 --> 0:20:17.919 I should have been. I think they looked at my 0:20:17.960 --> 0:20:20.160 team this morning when I was like looking at Domingos 0:20:20.160 --> 0:20:23.760 Antana did eight league in a twelve team keeper league, 0:20:25.000 --> 0:20:28.879 and I'm like, seems pretty good. I think should do 0:20:29.000 --> 0:20:31.359 for you. I have no idea what the team looks like, 0:20:31.800 --> 0:20:35.200 not at all, honest, not at all. I don't even 0:20:35.200 --> 0:20:37.360 know I did. Should I go I go round order 0:20:37.400 --> 0:20:41.000 or should I go like my team round orders? There's 0:20:41.000 --> 0:20:44.600 a bookie bets, as you know, we'll pick you have first. 0:20:45.480 --> 0:20:48.480 So in this league, given that pitching of keepers, whatnot? 0:20:48.880 --> 0:20:51.720 Colin Verlander went in the first round. Okay, just to 0:20:51.760 --> 0:20:54.159 give you an idea. My goal, as you guys know 0:20:54.240 --> 0:20:56.840 the entire time, was it taking out freely like Springer, Puee, 0:20:57.000 --> 0:20:59.800 one of those guys, along with a guy like Packing 0:20:59.920 --> 0:21:02.120 or Strasburg, which everyone was there. That was my plan. 0:21:02.920 --> 0:21:05.399 I remember I was keeping I kept Wheeler, I kept Snell, 0:21:05.480 --> 0:21:07.960 I kept Turner, I kept Aranada. Hey you with me. 0:21:09.800 --> 0:21:13.280 So to the person that was right before me had 0:21:13.320 --> 0:21:16.119 told me he's not taking James Paxton if he's there, 0:21:16.119 --> 0:21:17.440 he had him last year that with the injuries, I 0:21:17.440 --> 0:21:21.679 don't want to deal with him. The person right before. 0:21:21.960 --> 0:21:23.760 So the two people right before him, which means so 0:21:23.840 --> 0:21:27.200 three even four people away from me, Paxton and Strasburg 0:21:27.280 --> 0:21:31.320 back to back, gone, m hmmm. I don't know what 0:21:31.400 --> 0:21:35.520 to do. This is this is not good. So I 0:21:35.560 --> 0:21:37.359 would have been taken said do exactly what you did, 0:21:37.359 --> 0:21:39.480 a G. S. T. J. Screw pitching, and I would 0:21:39.480 --> 0:21:42.199 have taken one of the outfielders or both outfielders. And 0:21:42.240 --> 0:21:45.040 so Xander Bogarts. You just killed me for doing this 0:21:45.240 --> 0:21:48.680 correct correct I did because Sander Bogars is a really 0:21:48.680 --> 0:21:51.720 good value. At that point, Bogarts goes right before me. 0:21:54.600 --> 0:21:56.360 So now at this point I'm thinking, too, I bring 0:21:56.400 --> 0:22:00.359 a picture up the board. Who's there? Yeah, top hitchers 0:22:00.400 --> 0:22:03.160
