Speaker 1: Show off. Let's play ball. Welcome in everybody to fantasy pros.
Speaker 1: This is leading off, brought to you by bet MGM,
Speaker 1: the King of sports Books. It's me, Joey p joke
Speaker 1: with me today with me today is the Welsh. Of
Speaker 1: course he is back. I'm sorry. I'm in in a
Speaker 1: haze of trying to help my children pack for our
Speaker 1: trip to Florida. And you know, Welsh kids, they're a
Speaker 1: little smaller, you know, your kids than mine. So I'm
Speaker 1: not sure if it's easier to just pack for them
Speaker 1: when they're little, or to supervise them packing as like
Speaker 1: almost that pre teenage. I don't know. I'm not sure
Speaker 1: which is more stressful. I gotta do it yourself.
Speaker 2: Do it yourself, that's the that's the way to do it.
Speaker 2: Don't give them any future life skills. Just do it
Speaker 2: all yourself so it inconveniences you just a little bit.
Speaker 2: Florida sounds like quite trip.
Speaker 1: Joe, Oh, it's going to be.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 1: Look, I'm looking forward to it. I haven't been on
Speaker 1: a proper vacation and well, I don't know, three years,
Speaker 1: so I'm looking forward to getting on a plane with
Speaker 1: them and really doing that. That's gonna be good. So
Speaker 1: Welsh is going to hold things down next week. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm not around. I got two days with a star,
Speaker 1: studied a group of friends as always, So you got
Speaker 1: you got Bogmin for one day. Is Bubba doing the
Speaker 1: other one? Is that?
Speaker 2: What I know? We got Bogmin for two days and
Speaker 2: then we got Bubba for two days. So we've got
Speaker 2: the super friends that are coming super fund I love that.
Speaker 1: I love that. Yes, doctor Glenn, I am coming to
Speaker 1: your house, so that's I'm gonna stop over hang out there.
Speaker 1: You're gonna be in Orlando, Florida. By the way, Welsh,
Speaker 1: did you pick Otani last night? I'm trying to remember if.
Speaker 2: That was Tani was my leftover, so I'd love to
Speaker 2: take credit for it, but he was my leftover on
Speaker 2: the sheet after he absolutely murdered that ball at what
Speaker 2: felt like actually eleven PM my time, So I don't
Speaker 2: know were you even awake when was doing that business?
Speaker 1: Completely not. I woke up this morning and I saw
Speaker 1: the highlights of it and they were very impressive. And
Speaker 1: more and Otani a little later on the show, because
Speaker 1: we're gonna examine those odds again. But let's get at it.
Speaker 1: So Otani was incredible, two homers, eight ribbies. He's pitching
Speaker 1: today again here we go. We talked about the number
Speaker 1: as it fluctuates, as it moves the numbers as high
Speaker 1: as five to one. More on that in a second,
Speaker 1: because there's been some other MVP movement in the National
Speaker 1: League too. I want to bring attention to Olsen also
Speaker 1: hit two home runs for the Braves yesterday. Bobby Wit
Speaker 1: hit two home runs. So lots of double dongs here
Speaker 1: hanging out for a lot of the guys in Major
Speaker 1: League Baseball. Freddie Freeman had five ribbies in a big
Speaker 1: win there for them. This is how you win without
Speaker 1: Mookie Betts. Freddy Freeman has to step up into that void.
Speaker 1: Jorgel Farro stepped up, had a walk off hit to
Speaker 1: give San Diego a major league leading eighth extra inning win.
Speaker 1: And I feel like sometimes, Welsh, when you have these
Speaker 1: teams that win extra inning games, You've seen this with
Speaker 1: certain teams in the past. They start to think that
Speaker 1: they're invincible. And that's a really dangerous thing for a
Speaker 1: team that's got as pitching rich of a rotation as
Speaker 1: the Padres are. When they believe that they can win
Speaker 1: any game, and it's all going to bounce their way
Speaker 1: typically mentally it starts to work out.
Speaker 2: That way, yeah, I mean, and also like they had
Speaker 2: to lean on the pitching more than anything else, Like
Speaker 2: I don't think I'm not sure if they're gonna walk
Speaker 2: away with confidence like hah, don't worry in the later
Speaker 2: innings we've got whoorhale farrow everybody, Like, I don't think
Speaker 2: that's exactly gonna it. But I will tell you as
Speaker 2: far has actually been pretty solid and actually picked him up.
Speaker 2: I put him in on one of my few waivers
Speaker 2: over I think it was on tout this past weekend.
Speaker 2: In these two catcher leagues, the only two catcher leagues
Speaker 2: I play in are the two industry ones. Funny how
Speaker 2: that goes, isn't it too? By the way, Joey, I
Speaker 2: just want to point out, well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, everybody talks about since the standard of what everybody
Speaker 1: is playing, except the fact that they don't they still
Speaker 1: play two catcher leagues.
Speaker 2: And yeah, that's what I'm saying. I'm in like like
Speaker 2: eleven leagues and the only two that I'm playing in
Speaker 2: are the industry leagues that like the two catchers I
Speaker 2: hate two catchers. I hate one catcher leagues. Yeah, to
Speaker 2: be honest with you, so I got to play in
Speaker 2: these two catcher leagues and whorehial Far is a relatively
Speaker 2: intriguing guy because he's more and more and he can
Speaker 2: also play some other positions. He's more and more than
Speaker 2: the guy that they've leaned on and continuously keeps going.
Speaker 1: The lack of evolution in some of those formats, I
Speaker 1: just I don't get it, like I just don't understand
Speaker 1: It's it's we decided this twenty five years ago, so
Speaker 1: therefore this has to be the standard of how we
Speaker 1: do it forever and ever.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, it is. It is the epitome of baseball.
Speaker 2: Let's just point that out for a minute, Like the
Speaker 2: fantasy baseball industry has so many elements of real baseball
Speaker 2: and lack of innovation, getting mad about anything new and
Speaker 2: saying this is the only way to do it, because.
Speaker 1: So the unwritten rules of fantasy is two catcher leagues.
Speaker 1: Is that it?
Speaker 2: I guess, yeah, you gotta have that. Yeah, a few
Speaker 2: other ones.
Speaker 1: But we'll do that out there. Goodness gracious, Yeah, a
Speaker 1: few other ones for sure. All right, more headlines here.
Speaker 1: Zach Gallon struck out eleven. If only there was a
Speaker 1: show Welsh yesterday they told you to smash the over
Speaker 1: on the k prop. Oh wait there was. It was
Speaker 1: this show. What a wonderful time to be alive. George
Speaker 1: Springer had an elbow issue. He will not play today.
Speaker 1: Marco Gonzalez was good against the A's over seven innings,
Speaker 1: and Nolan Gorman four for four with two homers. Lots
Speaker 1: of double dingers yesterday, and everybody had trout, including me,
Speaker 1: and of course Otani was the guy to do it.
Speaker 2: So you know, I want to point out, can you
Speaker 2: imagine being that how awesome that Angel game would be
Speaker 2: to be at two? It's like two Otani homers, two
Speaker 2: Wit homers. I was trying, but I cannot find it,
Speaker 2: at least over on DraftKings. Just wanted to do a
Speaker 2: little peaky peek since I know we're going to be
Speaker 2: looking at some future award bets a Rookie of the Year,
Speaker 2: just to see where it sits. I mean, Julio keeps
Speaker 2: doing what he's doing, but I don't know. Bobby Witt
Speaker 2: having his first multi hit homer. Just curious, just curious
Speaker 2: if the gap close a little bit. Ping is on
Speaker 2: the il that gap closing at all, Wit, do anything
Speaker 2: for you. I don't know what the number is, though
Speaker 2: I can't.
Speaker 1: I will, I will, I will tell you the number.
Speaker 1: I will get it for you on bettingpros dot com.
Speaker 1: I'll get the consensus line. It's still Julio for me.
Speaker 1: But look, Bobby Wit, I think I still have my
Speaker 1: Bobby Wit share. I did not cash it in because
Speaker 1: it was too good to cash in, you know, I figured, well,
Speaker 1: let me hedge myself just a little bit on that one.
Speaker 1: Speaking of injuries though too just everybody knows sal Perez
Speaker 1: left the game, reaggravated the thumb injury. That's not good.
Speaker 1: It's very frustrating. And Fernando Tetis Junior is beginning of
Speaker 1: the dry swings. Now. I did a video yesterday about
Speaker 1: the Bilos and the Celle Highs, so one of them
Speaker 1: was tatis because I felt like, this is your window,
Speaker 1: and well, should I talked about it? I think it
Speaker 1: was you and I. It could have been boggling yesterday.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure all kind of runs together, but this
Speaker 1: is kind of your window to buy tattas because if
Speaker 1: somebody paid a little bit too much for him and
Speaker 1: they've been waiting and waiting, they're getting frustrated, and maybe
Speaker 1: it's hurt them, Maybe it's hurt their roster construction. It's
Speaker 1: a perfect time to say, let's pluck him off there,
Speaker 1: maybe have him back in three to four weeks on
Speaker 1: your team, and you might be able to get him
Speaker 1: for I don't know. I mean, maybe Glaber Torres gets
Speaker 1: it done or something like that. I'm just saying, like
Speaker 1: some teams that spent too much draft capital early on
Speaker 1: tattos might be hurting and the lower end of the
Speaker 1: timetable or the original expected timetable might be frustrating to them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe I find it. I think it's that that
Speaker 2: in general might be a reach in a lot of leagues,
Speaker 2: especially like the ones that I would play in. I
Speaker 2: don't think anybody at this point, especially when there's any
Speaker 2: type of like positive, that even if there's no positive
Speaker 2: or a little positive as songs, there's no negative, no
Speaker 2: one's really gonna move off of him. I think the
Speaker 2: way you do trade for him, though, is you've got
Speaker 2: to be the person that takes a hot now piece
Speaker 2: and move it you've got. You can't trade like an underperformer.
Speaker 2: You can't trade kind of a boring player. You have
Speaker 2: to trade like you know. What popped in my head
Speaker 2: was like a John Birdie, like a John Birdie and
Speaker 2: maybe another little piece, you know, you do something like that,
Speaker 2: a guy who's stealing bases like crazy, or maybe Birdie
Speaker 2: in general, because someone's like, you know what, guy looks
Speaker 2: like he's gonna keep going. He's at the top of
Speaker 2: the stolen base marker. Screw it. I don't want to
Speaker 2: I don't need to worry about this. I think it
Speaker 2: has to be something you're a little uncomfortable moving. But
Speaker 2: at the end of the day, I totally agree. I'm
Speaker 2: gonna try whatever I can to do. With Fernando Tatis,
Speaker 2: he was seen doing some doing some swings and it
Speaker 2: looked like a I don't know, if you saw the
Speaker 2: video that was out out there, it was like some
Speaker 2: weird vip BP room. It didn't look like a normal
Speaker 2: batting practice room. It did honestly, it looked like there
Speaker 2: might have been a cover to get into the back
Speaker 2: of that room. And he was taking some swings with
Speaker 2: a bat. He was taking the swings of the bat,
Speaker 2: and yeah, that's a good sign. It's a really really
Speaker 2: great sign. Post All Star break watch out for him.
Speaker 2: If you can trade for Tatis, you absolutely should. I
Speaker 2: think it's just a lot harder than it's conceptualized.
Speaker 1: What was that phrase you coined at the beginning of
Speaker 1: the Tattoos rang You just went on hot hot young
Speaker 1: what guys? Hot guys, hot guys, hot guy, legit hot guys?
Speaker 1: Is that it was?
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh yeah, like a legit hot guy, like a
Speaker 2: real hot guy. Because it's like like glabor isn't like
Speaker 2: the hot dude. You got to get like someone.
Speaker 1: The jit hot guy. That's what you did right now,
Speaker 1: hot guy? Do you want to talk to legit hot guys?
Speaker 1: Called this number? All right? I do have your number,
Speaker 1: by the way of the Rookie of the Year, you
Speaker 1: want to take a guest before I tell you what
Speaker 1: it is? What the number?
Speaker 2: I remember correctly? Last time? It was like one twenty
Speaker 2: five Julio nine hundred wit? Is it like one fifty
Speaker 2: seven hundred?
Speaker 1: It is five point fifty Bobby Wit In the consensus
Speaker 1: line eight hundred is still in one spot though on
Speaker 1: Fox bet you could get an eight hundred for Julio.
Speaker 1: It's even money even minus in minus on vet MGM.
Speaker 1: So you already minus won twenty five there, so you know,
Speaker 1: Bobby Witz definitely closed the gap, but it's it's certainly
Speaker 1: still a gap. I guess that's the point of to
Speaker 1: make when it comes to that. I think it's still
Speaker 1: Julio's award to lose. But look, Bobby WIT's making it
Speaker 1: a run, that's for sure. And the National League, you know,
Speaker 1: in the National League is still you know, kind of
Speaker 1: the same. Nolan Gorman's worked his way up now to
Speaker 1: five to one. Mackenzie Gore is a four to one.
Speaker 1: It would not shocking if Homer went past him in
Speaker 1: the next couple of weeks. And board Spencer Strider is
Speaker 1: up to six fifty though. That's one that's really intriguing
Speaker 1: right now that I think has kind of the bullet,
Speaker 1: you know, I gave the little thing attached to it
Speaker 1: with a little upscale whatever, you know, like the little
Speaker 1: arrow going up thing is the one for me that's
Speaker 1: kind of got that right now that I'm fascinated by.
Speaker 1: I don't naturally work in the year. I have not
Speaker 1: made an investment outside of Hunter Green, which I still
Speaker 1: don't understand why he does have better numbers than he
Speaker 1: does right now.
Speaker 2: Chris for his number because I love Spencer Strider, I
Speaker 2: really do. But he got lit up the other night.
Speaker 2: Gore's got lit up a little bit. They're getting figured
Speaker 2: out a tiny bit.
Speaker 1: Fifty to one right now, fifty to one, fifty one.
Speaker 2: Who the hell is number one?
Speaker 1: I'm just saying he's fifty to one. That's I mean,
Speaker 1: the number one is still with Enzi Gore.
Speaker 2: Oh Gore?
Speaker 1: Really fifty to one? I mean, kyvatet Rouiz has a
Speaker 1: better number than an Hunter Green, a top hitter.
Speaker 2: Who's the top hitter Nolan.
Speaker 1: Gorman right now on the National league.
Speaker 2: Side, who's the second.
Speaker 1: Cruise who's been up for I hate them all?
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I don't.
Speaker 1: That's why I keep saying Hunter Green is this long
Speaker 1: shot of all long shots. I mean, geez, I kind
Speaker 1: of like what happens.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Nolan Gorman is interesting, the Green one is interesting.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know. It's a crap look at this.
Speaker 1: So, yeah, we have the number here JP posted here
Speaker 1: for your cousin don checks in and stop calling me.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna answer cousin dons. So all right, let's
Speaker 1: get to uh can we talk about this? Let's talk
Speaker 1: about shoey Otani's number, which I went on my little
Speaker 1: rant two fridays ago about let's cash out at the
Speaker 1: three to one and let's wait for it. Let's invest
Speaker 1: in judge just to hedge our bets there a little bit,
Speaker 1: and let's see this Otani number. Now, the Otani number
Speaker 1: consensus is a five to one. That's this morning. Okay,
Speaker 1: So some spots where it's still four to fifty. Uh
Speaker 1: of course my spot FanDuel or I bet it's four
Speaker 1: fifty right on, but you can get it five hundred
Speaker 1: still over at bet MGM. Now this is the time
Speaker 1: where tonight he has a big start, So Welsh, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna put this out there to you. If he has
Speaker 1: the big start today, what's that number tomorrow?
Speaker 2: Oh? I think it goes down to four hundred, I
Speaker 2: really do. I don't know the big movement four to fifty,
Speaker 2: four hundred something like that. Yeah, I'm as like a preview.
Speaker 2: I think he's a really he's really interesting on the
Speaker 2: betting market tonight too, because you know the number, the
Speaker 2: numbers are kind of usual uh Otani numbers. He's coming
Speaker 2: off of that incredibly big game. I don't know. Also,
Speaker 2: you know there's that little part of me why I
Speaker 2: this feels like one of those games where Atani can
Speaker 2: strike out ten and like fine innings because you know,
Speaker 2: also like not pulling off these games in the wind
Speaker 2: streak having eight RBI. This feels like one where Atani
Speaker 2: pulls back and goes Yeah. I think these numbers go
Speaker 2: up if you all subscribe to the dual player theory
Speaker 2: here where it's no matter what all these other guys do.
Speaker 2: This dual player if they can get hot is the
Speaker 2: unanimous MVP. Then this is the time to bet before
Speaker 2: you start losing some mods. And like if I actually
Speaker 2: think one of the best places to do it is
Speaker 2: like Fandle what we talked about, where you can buy
Speaker 2: out equity at any time, So go do it right now.
Speaker 2: It probably moves up, and if you're not really a risker,
Speaker 2: you probably can make a couple of bucks as it
Speaker 2: goes up. I don't you know, it's all going to
Speaker 2: be depending.
Speaker 1: Look, if you invest ten bucks, if you infact this
Speaker 1: ten bucks in it, and this number goes to two
Speaker 1: and a half over the next month, you're probably gonna
Speaker 1: make fifteen bucks off this at least maybe even twenty.
Speaker 1: I mean just this is a stupid like it's a
Speaker 1: stupid fun thing. But you know it's like, hey, if
Speaker 1: I put in a five dollars line with DFS and
Speaker 1: I'll win, I get mad. But if I put a
Speaker 1: five dollar line up in a couple of weeks, I
Speaker 1: get you know, twenty five bucks back. Like that's that's
Speaker 1: that's good.
Speaker 2: That's ultimately. Ultimately, what's so tough about them is like
Speaker 2: they've got to win game. That can't be this big
Speaker 2: old loser team they got. They've got to like keep winning.
Speaker 2: He can't keep losing that strut of royals and stuff,
Speaker 2: and that's gonna hold him back. I think more than
Speaker 2: his numbers. I think at the end of the day,
Speaker 2: let me just point this out. Let's just hype hypothetically,
Speaker 2: say someone else wins it. Who's the favorite right now
Speaker 2: is not much.
Speaker 1: It's Judge still and minus five.
Speaker 2: Okay, let's say Judge. Let's go and judge her. Let's
Speaker 2: say Judge wins it. We I think at the end
Speaker 2: of the year, we will go back and we will
Speaker 2: look at Judge's numbers, We'll compare them against the Tany's
Speaker 2: and we'll go man Otani really deserved this like from it.
Speaker 2: It's vertical standpoint, like you don't want to take it
Speaker 2: away from Judge. Judge won it. He had whatever, he's
Speaker 2: gonna have, fifty homers and stuff. But we could probably
Speaker 2: easily make the case of Tani regardless. I'm even saying
Speaker 2: if he goes crazy hot or not right, we will
Speaker 2: look at those numbers and we will say it is
Speaker 2: hard that we took this away from him, and the
Speaker 2: deciding factors will be maybe some of those streaks and
Speaker 2: the team context. I really don't think it's gonna be
Speaker 2: about Judge or whoever is the guy that wins it.
Speaker 2: I don't think it's gonna ultimately be that those numbers
Speaker 2: are so much better, because I think that's impossible based
Speaker 2: on the hitting and pitching for a Tani.
Speaker 1: I'm slightly annoyed because I wanted this number to get
Speaker 1: to like seven before I could go back in because
Speaker 1: of what he did last night, and he has a
Speaker 1: start directly after that lines up really well. I think
Speaker 1: this is the window. This is the window to go
Speaker 1: back you know, on Atani at five to one, and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it today right after the show. I'm
Speaker 1: a man of my word. I always am I If
Speaker 1: I'm saying bet it, that's because I'm betting it like
Speaker 1: a lot of other people. Let's say, you know, don't
Speaker 1: do it, and I'm not saying you have to do
Speaker 1: a lot. You go five bucks on this thing, just
Speaker 1: for s's and g's and have fun with it and
Speaker 1: maybe you win. In who knows another number that's moved
Speaker 1: considerably last week, Peter A. Lonzo was twelve to one
Speaker 1: for MVP. You want to take a guess what he
Speaker 1: is now.
Speaker 2: I saw it, so I know you saw it.
Speaker 1: Six to one right now plus six hundred. So this
Speaker 1: was another dude too, I said. Jose Ramirez and Peter
Speaker 1: Alonzo are the two guys that don't understand why they're
Speaker 1: still in double digits because they are single handedly carrying
Speaker 1: these teams. I feel like most nights and Alonzo. You
Speaker 1: know again that New York media, it's a media award.
Speaker 1: I think Alonzo is really in this race. I really do.
Speaker 1: I think he's fascinating. I think this might be the
Speaker 1: last time. If it goes to five, I think that's
Speaker 1: when I'm starting like, okay, now you really got to
Speaker 1: take it seriously. But I don't know, man, it's just
Speaker 1: starting to feel like Pete Alonzo. He's so liked to,
Speaker 1: he's so well liked by I think so much, you know,
Speaker 1: in terms of other players in the media. And if
Speaker 1: you think that stuff doesn't matter, it does because at
Speaker 1: the end of the day, Machado's not liked Machiatto is.
Speaker 1: It rubs people the wrong way.
Speaker 2: I think it's impossible for him to win this. I
Speaker 2: think impossible for first baseman to win this. This would
Speaker 2: be the prime example again not everybody.
Speaker 1: Why why Because I like Goldsman, he's a first basement
Speaker 1: Why can't call Golan win?
Speaker 2: You know what? I also think it's a hard road,
Speaker 2: but I think it's a hard road for a guy
Speaker 2: like him as well. They're completely different players. I think,
Speaker 2: in like a context standpoint, it's a good point. I
Speaker 2: wasn't even thinking about Goldie when I was with that,
Speaker 2: But I think it's hard to put the guy that's
Speaker 2: hitting like two seventy, you know, as the winner to
Speaker 2: sixty two seventy. Ultimately, when they finished with it, what
Speaker 2: I was gonna say is not every book gets to
Speaker 2: do this, but this would be the prime example of
Speaker 2: me cashing out. If I had gotten Alonso at twelve
Speaker 2: to one and he was now six to one. This
Speaker 2: would be cash out city. That's I would take my
Speaker 2: profits and move on because I do not believe there.
Speaker 2: I do not believe he will win this award.
Speaker 1: All right, let's let's go to something that's I know
Speaker 1: rubbed Mike Mayer wrong yesterday. So I don't know if
Speaker 1: you guys have seen this. If not, run to try Twitter,
Speaker 1: because last night wasn't the only thing going on with
Speaker 1: shoey Ootani and Anaheim. It was also a fan caught
Speaker 1: a ball out there in the outfield, gave it to
Speaker 1: a kid. Everyone. Yeah, he gave it to the kiday.
Speaker 1: So Mike Mayor is already miserable. Then later in the
Speaker 1: same game, this kid catches a ball that I think
Speaker 1: the I think the outfielder threw it out there to him,
Speaker 1: and the kid caught it, and the kid turned around
Speaker 1: and gave that ball to the grown up. Just just
Speaker 1: a beautiful moment that everybody loves. It's on the Twitter machine,
Speaker 1: that's all over, and Mike Mayor is throwing things. He
Speaker 1: is so upset. He's trying to have the stream cut
Speaker 1: right now, Chris cut the stream. No, we're not cutting
Speaker 1: the stream. I want everybody in the Peanuts and Cracker
Speaker 1: Jackson tell me, is that a feel good moment because
Speaker 1: the kid gave the adult a ball back? Or is
Speaker 1: it all just miserable? Like Mike Mahyer, I want to
Speaker 1: know for sure. I want know how you feel about this.
Speaker 1: I want Mike Mayor to step aside from the fieldings machine.
Speaker 1: Chris Welsh, how do you feel about this this moment
Speaker 1: that has gone viral and then everybody loves. I love,
Speaker 1: but I think it's nice. Mike Mayor hates it?
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I love. I absolutely love those moments. I'm
Speaker 2: here for them when people the like Also, I go
Speaker 2: to like complex level ball, so there's like twenty people
Speaker 2: there at the most or something like that, and you
Speaker 2: know the kids are running for baseball. It's so cool
Speaker 2: when I've given multiple kids baseballs as they've been hit
Speaker 2: near me and stuff like that, and it's always cool.
Speaker 2: But it is ingrained in me now and built into
Speaker 2: me that it's like, how much is this hurting Mike
Speaker 2: Mayor happiness? How much is happiness with baseball? Do you
Speaker 2: see that moment where the kid told forced his dad
Speaker 2: to go to I think it was either yesterday or
Speaker 2: Father's Day. The kid forced his dad to go see
Speaker 2: the Nationals. They had seats in the upper deck and
Speaker 2: he's like, Dad, Soto is gonna hit a homer towards us,
Speaker 2: and his dad almost didn't go the ball hit, the
Speaker 2: dad got the homer. They put them on video and
Speaker 2: I was like, man, this is such an awesome moment.
Speaker 2: But then I was like, how much Mike Mayor is
Speaker 2: mad that this The sun did happiness for the day.
Speaker 1: And had to do indeed happiness for your father. Oh
Speaker 1: that made me smile. Also made me smile and also
Speaker 1: kind of terrified if somebody posted something on Twitter or
Speaker 1: do of Kyle Farnsworth, who was just like absolutely jacked.
Speaker 1: Now I don't see this picture I put in the
Speaker 1: show sheet, Holy crap, Cal Farnsworth looks like, ho, my goodness.
Speaker 1: It looks like he ate Yondi Diaz. And then like
Speaker 1: it made him into a protein shake or something like
Speaker 1: that guy's mass.
Speaker 2: He's wacko. You know. There's something also like uh as
Speaker 2: a as a you know, fat guy, like fat guy's
Speaker 2: unclothed are not pretty, but like really weirdly jacked up
Speaker 2: dudes are also terrifying to look at. There's so much
Speaker 2: about this picture. His right arm looks half the size.
Speaker 2: He's got little squirrel ankles with these big, giant everything
Speaker 2: about it is terrifying. It's not a good look. And
Speaker 2: Kyle Farnsworth is also just I think a total monster.
Speaker 2: The John Boy side by side is relatively scary as well.
Speaker 2: Like seven years ago he just liked like a dude,
Speaker 2: and now he absolutely looks like a villain. He looks
Speaker 2: like a villain from he looks like from the Boys. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it looks it looks like it looks like the Boys
Speaker 2: alternate Hult character.
Speaker 1: Boys has been so good. Oh my god, this new season.
Speaker 1: If you haven't watched The Boys, you gotta watch the Boys.
Speaker 1: It's just fantastic, all right. Fun facts here, Shoeo Tony
Speaker 1: is the only major league player to drive in eight
Speaker 1: plus runs and yet have his team never hold the
Speaker 1: lead in a game since RBI became an official stat
Speaker 1: in nineteen twenty. So how do you like them? Apples
Speaker 1: also got trivia question based on Shoheyo Toni Choo. Tony
Speaker 1: became the first player born in Japan to record eight
Speaker 1: RBI in a single game. Which two players did he surpass?
Speaker 1: So who had more RBI. They were tied with the
Speaker 1: same amount for Shoeo. Tony broke this number with eight.
Speaker 1: If you think you know the answer, go ahead drop
Speaker 1: it in the chat here and I will tell you again.
Speaker 1: You have to be a subscriber to Fantasy Bros. MLB
Speaker 1: in order to answer that question. So there you go.
Speaker 1: Who's the last the Japanese players? There was two of them.
Speaker 1: One's a bigger name, one is less of a bigger name,
Speaker 1: who had a giant RBI game, just like Otani. That
Speaker 1: Otani And it's not uh, it's not this guy that
Speaker 1: every time I say his name, Mike Maher says, we're
Speaker 1: gonna have to uh cut the stream like because he says,
Speaker 1: I say a word, but it's Cosca Fukudome, it's Dome.
Speaker 2: Hey, that weird.
Speaker 1: I was.
Speaker 2: I was actually getting ready to be nervous. You said there, right, Fukudome.
Speaker 1: The JP wants to know The Boys or Last Kingdom.
Speaker 1: Last Kingdom is a is great. You need to watch
Speaker 1: Last Kingdom. The Boys is fun, it's brilliant, but the
Speaker 1: Boys is It's definitely worth the watch. No, it is
Speaker 1: not Echio, by the way, too, that's not the the
Speaker 1: answer to the question. A couple of fun things though
Speaker 1: this day in baseball Welsh real quick, so this was fun.
Speaker 1: In nineteen forty seven, you'll Blackwell just misses pitching back
Speaker 1: to back no hitters when Eddie Stanky of the Brooklyn
Speaker 1: Dodgers singles, and I just thought Stanky would be such
Speaker 1: a great name now, like because you know everyone was
Speaker 1: like Eddie puts some stank on that one, Like you
Speaker 1: know that would be like he would be.
Speaker 2: Or it's not like nickname, you know, like rowdy, you know,
Speaker 2: like they get a couple of these guys like a
Speaker 2: rowdy to let like get like a stankan thanks stank Johnson.
Speaker 1: Uh. Nineteen eighty seven, Tom Seaver abandoned his comeback. A
Speaker 1: lot of people forgotten eighty seven. He almost came back
Speaker 1: because the Mets had so many injuries one more run,
Speaker 1: but he decided to call it Quitsin in nineteen ninety,
Speaker 1: the Braves fired their manager Russ Nixon and replaced him
Speaker 1: with the general manager. So the general manager came down
Speaker 1: replaced himself or placed Russ Nixon, i should say, with himself,
Speaker 1: Bobby Cox, And uh, that ended up working out pretty
Speaker 1: well for the Braves. That's not my check.
Speaker 2: I thought that was pretty enough.
Speaker 1: That was an alright decision. One of the names. We have,
Speaker 1: any of the names, yet one is real correct here
Speaker 1: mikea O'Neil has one of them. Hedeki Matsui is one.
Speaker 1: He'sap Troy is not. That is not correct, But we
Speaker 1: do have the other one. I'm gonna give people another
Speaker 1: minute or two to figure out.
Speaker 2: Man didn't didn't he just have one? No?
Speaker 1: No, no, no again again it's the key here is born
Speaker 1: in Japan, born in Japan. So because the player is
Speaker 1: Asian again.
Speaker 2: Japan, I'm just throw I'm throwing darts here, man, I'm
Speaker 2: throwing darts. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Moving on, all right, here we go. Stat heroes from
Speaker 1: Last Night Dying Season eleven k's. I was afraid of
Speaker 1: doing seas clearly I should not have been no earned run,
Speaker 1: six innings for him, your quidy five k's over six
Speaker 1: one earned Eric fee Uh six innings for him, no
Speaker 1: earned runs four k Zach Gallen was brilliant. Martin Perez
Speaker 1: continues to be awesome, which also makes Mike Mayor very unhappy.
Speaker 1: Six innings, six k's for him. Seanman Iah two earned
Speaker 1: runs and six innings with six k's. Marco Gonzalez seven
Speaker 1: strong innings to earn, but just two strikeouts. Isaac Perettis
Speaker 1: three for three with three bombs, the perfect night for him.
Speaker 1: I'm sure everybody had him in the home run.
Speaker 2: It's actually Esch Paridies.
Speaker 1: Oh, I'm sorry, that's correct.
Speaker 2: That's course, it looks like Isaac. Of course it's Esak.
Speaker 2: We all knows, that's it.
Speaker 1: Sank Moretti's had three bombs yesterday, No when Gorman had two,
Speaker 1: Otani had two, Bobby Wood had two, Carlos Santana had one.
Speaker 1: Carlos Santana. But he hasn't been on this sheet all year,
Speaker 1: has he? Matt Olson had two, Freddy Freeman three for
Speaker 1: four with five ribbies. Jared walshit a home run. He
Speaker 1: had a nice game there, three for six, and then
Speaker 1: Ryan McMahon three for four with a homer as well.
Speaker 1: Stad Zeros Spencer Strider six earned runs, only four k's.
Speaker 1: So I still say, you watch him in the Rookie
Speaker 1: of the Year thing and see how this goes. But
Speaker 1: it was not a good night for Striders.
Speaker 2: Now it's great, Well, she wasn't good.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 2: I love my Strider. Love betting the prop over he's
Speaker 2: just inconsistent. But now this, it doesn't make me feel
Speaker 2: like he's been doing the every other game type of thing.
Speaker 2: So next week, our next start, I'm one hundred percent,
Speaker 2: one thousand percent betting his over on K's and expect
Speaker 2: him to go six and strike out eleven.
Speaker 1: Yeah, probably Red Deebtmer's five earned run five innings, Deskofani
Speaker 1: five earned in three and ness Cortes four earned in
Speaker 1: four and a third. So is this the U is
Speaker 1: the Nesterer Cortes thing starting to fade? Now? Are we?
Speaker 1: Are we in the all right? He's come back down
Speaker 1: to earth now in this is not exactly the same
Speaker 1: guy was a month ago, because he was on such
Speaker 1: a run, and I would say, what now two of
Speaker 1: the last four starts have been less than thrilling. Let's
Speaker 1: be honest.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not one hundred percent. I have to be
Speaker 2: very careful about this because Nestor is one of those
Speaker 2: guys that I wasn't in love with coming in. I
Speaker 2: just didn't think he had great overpowering stuff. But he
Speaker 2: is a master of command. He keeps pitchers off, you know,
Speaker 2: he'll change up his pitch rotation of how he's doing it.
Speaker 2: He's sneaky control across his own and he still got
Speaker 2: pretty good stuff. So I want to be dicey about
Speaker 2: it because never did I think he would be as
Speaker 2: high valued as he currently is. So now that he's struggling,
Speaker 2: I don't want to be like, I get him out
Speaker 2: of here. You know he's gone. So no, I don't
Speaker 2: think so. This also wasn't really a necessarily a blow up.
Speaker 2: He gave up two back to back jacks, which I
Speaker 2: don't think he had done all year.
Speaker 1: I think I actually just brought it up here and
Speaker 1: I was going to ask you, is the time to
Speaker 1: buy low on quartet? Like this is it?
Speaker 2: I think so? I think this would be the opportunity,
Speaker 2: especially because you just asked a question. You're like, hey,
Speaker 2: is this the time that we're kind of done with him?
Speaker 1: That that could be panicing, not done, but like that
Speaker 1: that we say, Okay, he is not one of the
Speaker 1: best pitchers in the league, even though he were pitching
Speaker 1: like that for a month. But you know this, this
Speaker 1: is as normal. I mean, these things happen. The guys
Speaker 1: aren't gonna pitch on one eras all year. There's going
Speaker 1: to be some down spots it's always you know, it's
Speaker 1: it's very rare you get somebody who goes for a
Speaker 1: sub to e R for an entire season, even nowadays,
Speaker 1: but also in.
Speaker 2: New York, like the sustainability of being able to continue
Speaker 2: to do that throughout the season in a ballpark that
Speaker 2: is this tiny little box that you know, you and
Speaker 2: I could probably hit a homer. You know, we have
Speaker 2: to have a pull side.
Speaker 1: I couldhit a home around the Yankee Stadium. I have
Speaker 1: one hundred percent confidence of my ability to that. Here's
Speaker 1: a question, who would you rather have rest of season?
Speaker 1: Would you rather have Carlos Rodonn or Estra Cortez?
Speaker 2: Oh, I would go Nestor, Nestor.
Speaker 1: I think I would go Nester as well. Well. The
Speaker 1: home road splits for Rodn have not been great. The
Speaker 1: home yeah, guys to e R A and the road
Speaker 1: guys like foreign change. There's also always.
Speaker 2: Kind of a can continued massive injury risk that kind
Speaker 2: of follows Redon for the rest of the season as well,
Speaker 2: that I don't think follows Cortes. So you know, not
Speaker 2: that again that you would do a trade like that
Speaker 2: now that you would trade Redon for Cortes. It's weird,
Speaker 2: but I would if given the opportunity. Absolutely.
Speaker 1: All right, let's give you the answer to the trivia question,
Speaker 1: because you guys are not going to get it. It's
Speaker 1: Ta Tahitoguchi who had seven Well, I remember a Gucci
Speaker 1: by the way, Shogoakayama went back to Japan. Did you
Speaker 1: see that Chris has a whole Showgoakayama song? And if
Speaker 1: you haven't heard it gives you a little just a
Speaker 1: little bit, because you start show.
Speaker 2: Go aki Yama, Yo Mama show that's it. There's a
Speaker 2: whole song that's on that. The YouTube video is still
Speaker 2: owed to do some search. I'm a little disappointed because
Speaker 2: a dream you know, we had the spring training of
Speaker 2: Dreams where I got to take pictures with Blake Snell
Speaker 2: and I'm over here with Lance Land sho Go was
Speaker 2: on there. We wanted to get to show go pretty
Speaker 2: pretty bad to see if I could get in front
Speaker 2: of him and maybe even play the song and him
Speaker 2: just probably look at me and call security. But it
Speaker 2: didn't happen.
Speaker 1: Look at you, call security. That's good, all right. The
Speaker 1: leather zero's here yesterday, just to reflect through the guys
Speaker 1: real quick who were bad. Austin Hayes over four or
Speaker 1: four k's Byron bucks and over. You know, when Buckson's bad,
Speaker 1: he's oh so bad. Let me tell you that, when
Speaker 1: he's good, he's great, and when he's bad, he's awful.
Speaker 1: Like there's no in between. You gotta respect that. You
Speaker 1: gotta respect the game. Don't hate the player. I hate
Speaker 1: the game.
Speaker 2: I had a tweet this weekend real quick, just on
Speaker 2: on bucks And so it's not quite as relevant because
Speaker 2: it's three or four days out. It was in the
Speaker 2: midst while I was out doing some camping and sharing
Speaker 2: some stuff with everybody. H the only baseball tweet I
Speaker 2: had over the weekend. I decided I made a bucks
Speaker 2: In tweet and it was players that had double their
Speaker 2: home run over They had double the homers over doubles.
Speaker 2: Sorry I'm using that word two times homer's over doubles.
Speaker 2: So they had ten they'd have twenty homers. Only six
Speaker 2: guys and this had to be a minimum of ten homers.
Speaker 2: Only six guys made that list who had more than
Speaker 2: double homers over doubles. Judge Alonso, Buxton, Alvarez, vlad and
Speaker 2: Stanton were the only group. Buxton was doing this with
Speaker 2: a two to eleven babbit at that time, the other lowest,
Speaker 2: second lowest of the group was two seventy and vlad.
Speaker 2: Also of qualified hitters, Buckson was ninth and slugging and
Speaker 2: eleventh and hard hit And the whole point was look
Speaker 2: at these prolific power guys over their doubles and how
Speaker 2: the names are all great, but Buckson is doing it
Speaker 2: at just a ridiculously dumb clip of lack of success.
Speaker 2: But the Babbitt's got to get better. But he's also
Speaker 2: a dude. I think he has more homers and singles
Speaker 2: at this point, so it is frustrated. He's frustrating.
Speaker 1: Is that hurt my soul the time.
Speaker 2: When you said it. When he's bad, he's so bad
Speaker 2: right now, I don't understand it. But when he's good,
Speaker 2: he's one of the best players in baseball, and he
Speaker 2: also has so much underlying that it's like my god,
Speaker 2: buy on the future of Buckston. But he is an enikma.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Frenchie Cordero oh for three with three k's, Miles Straw,
Speaker 1: Tiascarrnandez Ramon, Loreano, Francisco Lindor and Trent grishram Geo Orshella
Speaker 1: all over with three K's as well, so bad days
Speaker 1: for them. Let's get to BEDMGM, the King of sportsbooks.
Speaker 1: Bet ten dollars win two hundred on any game, regardless
Speaker 1: of the outcome. When you sign up today and download
Speaker 1: the betmgm app, go to bedmgm dot com, enter the
Speaker 1: promo code leading off against one word leading off bet
Speaker 1: ten bucks, win two hundred. Take that two hundred, Put
Speaker 1: someone Otani for MVP, and there you go. That's how
Speaker 1: you do that. Bad boy tonight. Don't love a lot
Speaker 1: of the props tonight. I gotta be honest. The first
Speaker 1: time in a while, it's been a really good run here.
Speaker 1: Last night was very good for us. Raphael Dever's at
Speaker 1: one and a half a total basis here at plus
Speaker 1: one fifteen. That's on DK JD Martinez again even money
Speaker 1: on the total bases at one and a half. It's
Speaker 1: against Streek Schooble. That's why I don't love it. But
Speaker 1: still half even money or plus is pretty good on
Speaker 1: those guys. And then Freddy Freeman even money on him
Speaker 1: too on DK one and a half. But you have
Speaker 1: Tyler Anderson. That's a guy that you thought was an
Speaker 1: interesting one today, right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the only two that I found so far. The
Speaker 2: strikeout numbers four and a half for Tyler Anderson. I
Speaker 2: like that he's hit that number in seven of his
Speaker 2: last eight games, so you know, him and Gonsolin have
Speaker 2: just been strikeout guys. And I've bet Anderson a couple
Speaker 2: times and it's paid. So we only got to get
Speaker 2: to five and like I said, seven to last eight
Speaker 2: games he has hit that. And then Luis Robert total bases,
Speaker 2: which he's right around even money on one fifteen maybe
Speaker 2: a little bit more juiced, and he has hit that
Speaker 2: in six of his last eight games He's had two
Speaker 2: or more total bases, and I believe he's on like
Speaker 2: a fifteen game hit streak. Four straight have been over
Speaker 2: two total bases. So like Luis Robert, like Tyler Anderson,
Speaker 2: those are my two bets right now. It's kind of
Speaker 2: a weird slate to the week. I don't love strikeout
Speaker 2: props are difficult. The other one that we talked about
Speaker 2: him earlier, and I'm completely forgetting who it was near
Speaker 2: the top. Who was it? I'll come back to it.
Speaker 2: But as far as like, oh show he altani six
Speaker 2: and a half, I'd be very tempted to take that
Speaker 2: tonight as well, because I think he's gonna.
Speaker 1: Shove Turik's Google nine point two over on DK. Tough
Speaker 1: assignment though in Boston, so I'm a little sketch on that.
Speaker 1: Jeorge Montgomery at seven to four. I like that one
Speaker 1: a lot, especially against bos because he's been struggling little
Speaker 1: bit since he came back. Otani's at eight point five,
Speaker 1: Adam Wayne rightt seven to six. Charlie Morton on the
Speaker 1: other side of Rodin, and again I think in tournaments
Speaker 1: Charlie Morton should look at because Rodna has not been
Speaker 1: good on the road this year. So you can go
Speaker 1: Montgomery and Otani very cost effective. You can go really
Speaker 1: cheap on DK, Wayne Right, Montgomery and just load up
Speaker 1: on offense. I think that's the approach I want to
Speaker 1: do tonight. On FanDuel, a single picture site, you see
Speaker 1: the price variance too. Montgomery is nine point one on FanDuel.
Speaker 1: Whenever you see a two thousand dollars gap in pictures,
Speaker 1: that means you should be starting that picture in that
Speaker 1: other place. I'm telling you right now, there's something's off
Speaker 1: with the algorithm there. They're not taking enough into account.
Speaker 1: Otani's all the way at ten K. So once again
Speaker 1: you're getting a man massive discount on DK tonight, which
Speaker 1: is and I just.
Speaker 2: Want to I want to throw in with you and
Speaker 2: look to your point real quick. Look at Wayne right,
Speaker 2: he's almost the same price on both sites where you
Speaker 2: just pointed out Montgomery is almost a two k difference.
Speaker 1: That's really and and Otani fifteen hundred dollars difference. Look,
Speaker 1: that's and usually FanDuel is the one that's looser tonight,
Speaker 1: DK is looser. And look, in terms of looking for
Speaker 1: if you're looking for lineup builders tonight, i'd go into
Speaker 1: this Chicago Pittsburgh game. You got I coll f and
Speaker 1: Keegan Thompson. You might as well have Keenan Thompson pitching.
Speaker 1: And you're looking at all these all these guys are cheap.
Speaker 1: So Winsky's two point two. You know you got to
Speaker 1: chavi Us at two six, on your cruise at two seven.
Speaker 1: These are all on DK prices too. By the way,
Speaker 1: you could even go in Ian Happis three five, Wisdoms
Speaker 1: three five. That's the game to get some cheap guys
Speaker 1: in there. But if you're having the cheap pitchers on DK,
Speaker 1: we just told you you can get a lot there.
Speaker 1: I've struggled all day with my home run call. Finally,
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna let it ride with Mike Trout tonight
Speaker 1: again against the lefties. So I'm just I'm just not
Speaker 1: gonna everybody at Trout last night we were wrong. I
Speaker 1: think everyone's gonna get off it. I'm gonna stay on it,
Speaker 1: and I'm gona see what happens. Where are you going
Speaker 1: for your home run call tonight?
Speaker 2: Well, I'm gonna go with the guy just talked about
Speaker 2: in the props. I'm gonna go with Luis Robert, who
Speaker 2: has been hitting pretty well. It's not a big matchup
Speaker 2: of like BVP or anything like that, but I think
Speaker 2: Robert has been doing really well. And by the way,
Speaker 2: Mike Mayor gonna probably pull the I didn't look at
Speaker 2: the sheet bit because he's just going with Trout. With you,
Speaker 2: you both have Trout, so you guys are, oh, well, that's.
Speaker 1: Going to I didn't realize that that he's he's got
Speaker 1: Trout too, So I got you too. He's got Trout.
Speaker 1: So if we both are right, all we do is
Speaker 1: we both move up. So there you go, check mate,
Speaker 1: my friend, that's right, that's right. Perhaps so fun show
Speaker 1: obviously as as always. And yeah, Mayor, I'm copying you,
Speaker 1: that's what I'm doing. I had it yesterday. I'm just
Speaker 1: letting it ride. Please. This is the guy who had
Speaker 1: rehye hoskins for three weeks in this sheet. For God's sake,
Speaker 1: God the worst anyway, Uh, if you catch a ball,
Speaker 1: make sure if you're out of the game tonight, you
Speaker 1: give it to a kid. You take a video and
Speaker 1: send it to us a Fantasy pros and a Fantasy
Speaker 1: pros LB. And while you're at a subscribe to the
Speaker 1: channel and go make your wagers over at bet MGM,
Speaker 1: the King of sports books. And when you do, use
Speaker 1: that promo code leading off. That'll do it for me
Speaker 1: in the Welsh. But the story of the game goes on.
Speaker 1: We'll see you next time kids. Bye,
