Excellent job by Christoph Bona Downstairs the Kristen Stewart promo the true story, Greg was dying. It was a great promo. During the promo in the commercial break just now he was laughing like a hyena. It was hysterical. Excellent job Chris, that one. Sean I apologize. Excellent job by Sean. You have you missed him by

Sean um hosting Calling the Shots excellent job there by Sean with the promo. That's Frank Stanfeld joining us now missed yesterday you Matt Striker and Mike the rohdo coop, which which was awesome to check that out on the NAN as well. It's a close of the Chris Ben shows up. Chris, what's up? Guys? How are you doing?

It's your boy. I had to do one for the week. You know what I'm saying, at least one. What I'm saying, I mean, I prefer you do it every day. You just back up from the mic while you do that. Yeah, instead of going closer to him much. It's like a natural when I scream, you know what I mean? Like, I did you sleep last night? Did you get any sleep? I know you downloaded the show. I got the show and I didn't sleep much. I didn't sleep, didn't sleep. I didn't sleep much. Like It's like, you know that

baseball season, it's like Christmas. For some reason, Baseball season more than football season. On the other seasons, the beginning is the best, Like you just want to dive right in. So when the show comes out on top of that, it's like Christmas for me. Close is pumped pumped me. Miss stringmaking. I missed what I have? MLB fifteen the show on my PlayStation vita. What is the PlayStation vita hand held PlayStation? Yeah, like like a PSP. Like a

PSP because you don't have PlayStation. I don't have PlayStation PlayStation three for that rap. Last place I opened I owned was PlayStation two. Wow, I doesn't want to play you know, m VP Baseball two thousand one MP was great. That was a great game. That's the only other baseball game that was great before. You know the show that was great? Yeah. Also, yes, five with Manny on the cover. Who is in four? Was good to Randy Johnson I think on the cover. I think Johnson was on the cover.

I can't stay that they don't make games for Xbox any monopolizes the baseball game industry. It's more from their perspective. I can't blame them. But I'm really gonna buy a console just to play baseball. Yes, I've thought about it. I did it for two or three years ago. I just want some money in our fantasy basketball leaks. So maybe I should go buy a p S four right now because p S five is coming out within a year or two so we didn't talk about would I

get to PS four now doesn't make sense cheap? You know, we didn't talk about cheap? Are we talking? Hundre Bucks might be able to pull that off. I'm sorry, were keeping anyone listening or watching? If you want to sell me your PS four better yet, just give it to me. Hit me up at Rhoda Wonder Score Frank he wants to play the Sealman on the comment on the on the show here on YouTube. What do you got, Greg? Because I know you don't like a video games Patriots

and script PS four. There you go, great, great idea before I will give you a twenty five dollar version of the Patreon subscript subscription for the entirety of the baseball season. If you give me your PS four, that's definitely worth it. Yeah, even after the same price the entirety of the season. M yeah, yeah, Actually, you know they're saving a little more money, probably saving money. Yeah. Do you think I should play Station four? I don't care.

I know you don't. It's better that Gregg doesn't play video games exactly. More time to study his craft. It's more time to watch Baking Championshipship. That's part of the fiance process. You gotta watch Baking Championship. That'd be rough for me. What's the big deal? I mean, other things I might be able to sit through, but baking, I don't know. It's don't make a fantasy game? Now you're interested?

Can you did it? That's innovative? Cheapest PS four that I see on a certain video game website right now, and this is pre owned. Two and eight dollars. That's a rip off, pre owned, that's off. I know a guy I would like to get one. I know, I know. How much can you give me a play season? Probably for two with the show? How much a bundle you can make it happen? I might be able to maybe to fifty. I doubt it because the show's brand new, so you really ain't gonna get a discount on the show.

So sixty bucks, right, who's sixty two? Sixties? That's a good deal. That's not bad. Like I said, I got some money to throw around. We just want to fantasy basketball. Good congratulations for that, because you know what I do. Get it done. You guys do get it done. You get ships. Greg seems very concerned. Did you read some Steven Susan news or something? Greg, Yeah, so you so you you tweeted out with Steven used being at means more playing time. I'm like a kettle Marte, which ultimately

means more playing time for my guy. Yeah, this is what we had suspected an hour one. It was who needs confirmation from a GM what we're talking about? Who has kettle Martell? Well, I'm glad. I wanted. I wanted to talk league. I want to talk about our league because really we mentioned it. How did you feel like the draft one, Chris, I'm all right with it. You know,

it's a really strong, strong endorsement. But I'm saying that for every team that I have because I've been going hitting heavy and I like all my hitting of course because I get like stud hitters. But the pitching, on the other hand, every two of my teams after like the three or four staughter, it's very sketchy. But I feel like that's just the way baseball is. Yeah, in a fourteen team league, yeah, no one. No one's gonna feel he's just not enough. And I like, I like

my team. I haven't walked away from a draft this season, Greg and said I don't like my team. That's good, very nervous. Now we did that together, I feel like I shouldn't like my teams. You didn't like their team and the g d D when we walked away, I liked it a lot. You didn't. Yeah, I was a little intoxicated. I like it now grew on. I just remember walking over from that. I just remember walking over from that bar texting Floria that Frank is so pissed

at men. Also things have things have worked out with the Steven Susan injury. One more Flour's gonna play. I mean, he's the best, He's the best, great songs best. So I do so many shows with Frank, and I spend so much time with Franks during the week that we had these drafts, like you kind of have an idea which direction he's gonna go. And I've then so many shows with you. Now, Chris, especially during baseball season, all

you did was draft players I wanted. And this is what I'm getting to that my my my goal in this draft was like, yeah, I get the best team. That's why in the first round I was gonna draft Aaron Judge, Like that was my guy. I was gonna do it. I was why draft Aaron Judge? And then the second round came back with Frolander one of the picture and the hitter, and then pretty much from there it was, yes, I want to make my team good, but also how many can I slipe from Chris one way?

And how many picks can I snipe from Frank the other one? And midway through the draft my dream came true because Frank texted me, He's like, dude, you have sniped me so many times. And I'm like, fantastic, because that was legitimately my goal. Like there are certain picks I would make and I would laugh to myself like I knew I wanted this guy. I can imagine Greg in his little house chuckling. So Frank Wood Patticky, oh, Paddocky, that was right before me. Actually he took the package.

Probably if Padick was I wouldn't have got him anyway. If Pattick, if Paddick was going wherever it was, you know, he was the best picture on the break ones Anthony down he that was the thought process. So you didn't have really anybody that you look like me, they would have a great team. So I, uh so looking at my team drafting who I liked, so I pictures look like do you like so? So for the most point they were, Um, I drive to Corby and like the value,

like I needed a picture desperately. He was the best on the board. We talked about. That was the one guy we did talk about yesterday. Striker does not like Max. He's just not Shrugger, doesn't Tanaka. It is like kind of again, the best picture on the board at Ward Rodriguez is a frank guy for sure. UM took him because he knew he want I wanted I rod correct and I was gonna take him that round too, and I knew it at that point, all right, well, Greg's

just taking players. I haven't heard this guy mentioned EDWARDO. Rodriguez's name. Rod Draft seas like so, actually that's not true. So I did so I did like him. At that spot I had the two pictures ahead of the cue were frank guys, were Eovaldi and Edward Rodriguez. Like all right, if one of them go and take the other one, and Evaldi went so like all right, I'll just take him. I'll take Edwardo. Now, So I did had a backup plan.

Who'd you take that took? Yeah, it's my Favetto was there and I wanted I wanted Irod Moore is why taked war Rodriguez. You know a lot of frank guys went in that round because Valdi went in that round. And then Austin meadows to your sister's favorite fantasy player, if he's sist, his favorite fantasy team, favorite fantais team, which is Steve who set up the league. Shout out to Steve. Greg takes it, Warter Rodriguez, Joe Musgrove goes

one pick before me to jalap and see Jesus. And it was at that point that I actually cursed him during the chat, and I said, you know, if you weren't the Fantasy Jesus, I would curse your name. And right you praise Muscrow too much. You know someone was gonna do that to you. And then I took I took Nick Pavetta, so it was all right. I have all those players ranked in a similar range. You know,

so you still already starting pitch. He's stole from me. Basically, well, you had a chance to take him, you took Brandon Nemo instead, so I need to tatta there. I could have, but this is a six way six had to head categories League with ops as a category. Brandon Nemo is gonna be very good, and opis walks a lot. He might hit twenty homes and the rest of this you could tell constant teams in this league. He's a listener. He did well. And yeah, he took Domingo Santana. So

that was someone who I was looking at. Did well. Um Colin mc hugh, greg I took him. No. I did not want to call him kid. He took early. I thought, I think you've got in a little early, a little early, coming around fifteen something like that. Who did take No, you took around fourteen? I like that. That's when I was on the board. I was so then go to my hitters, other frank guys that that I specifically tried to draft, Travis Shaw, Tommy Fam. I didn't want Tommy Fan because it is a head to

add categories like I was punting stolen basis. It was actually really fun because in every draft you're trying to find stolen basis. So I'm looking at a draft board trying to find players who who just mad and not steal basis. It was actually a lot of fun. It was a change of pace. I was just looking for guys that it bombs. We're gonna give me good ops,

pretty good batting average, basically a full categories. You have full categories COVID maybe not affected with the most stolen basis on my team is Freddy Freeman, and he might give me like eight sored Freeman. I tweeted up my team. Someone responded saying, uh, over under for your your entire team stolen bases is fifteen. I hope I get the under.

So you have no Wilson Romos, Freddie Freeman, Max Munc, Matt Chapman, Paul De Young, J D Martinez, Michael Confordo, Peter Alonso, Sin Sue Choo, and Wilmer Flora's nobody on that team stealing steals basis. You d the Wilmar floor because of me? Right, that was like you're shot back kind of. But what I was also thinking was I have Max Monse as my second baseman, and both of these players Munc and Flora's play on the West Coast

and it's daily lineups. So if there's ever a game where Max Mons is not playing, because I do worry a little bit about him sitting against lefties, and I could just plug Wilmer Flora's in for because the lineouts line up should come out at the same time. They're both on the West Coast, so that was one that actually I thought a little bit in depth about. So then I d have to run Loriano and dedicated that to you, Frank. I didn't care much about that because

I don't need Stone basis. So I'm happy you got up with a player you don't really want. Don't drop him. I don't think I will. And then I was just like ventures up next, I got a draft, dear guy, so I tried to Josh Bell literally and dedicated it to you. I wanted to do one for you and one for you. I'm glad you know. I want to

pretty good. The reason why to take it because because my second round pick was Paul gold Schmi and um My and then Justin Smoke lingered for a long time, and I took him I think at a really good value. That's the only reason why I didn't take Bell. There were some other guys in this draft that lingered for a really long time. Horey Seeger. I feel like he didn't,

so I really wanted Corey Seeger. I was assigned so Seeger and Cigar were both there and around and I think I wound up taking Corbin that round and I really wanted Yeah, so I round up taking Corban I really really really considered why seeger and it didn't unfortunately work out, and she's Cigara lingered for more rounds that around seven, which is way later. He was a guy that really lingered with surprised man. Yeah, yeah, no, I was with you with that because when Seguel was lingering,

I was like, I gotta jump on this guy. But the exactly Sigar are still there, still there, so there's a lot more going on. And then yeah, I did pros with two rounds later. I was definitely looking at Sigar and see here earlier than that. That's where the TIA drop off is. You really wanted to jump on Cigar because that was the last of that tea. Yeah, as I said, I like for I think the seventh round, so I think the thing's open up a little bit. Um so, but Frank, you might have the slowest team

in history. That's exactly what I wanted. My team worked out exactly the way I wanted, and the pitching is not bad either. Trevor Bauer ranked way too low if anyone's doing Yahoo drafts over these next two days. Trevor Bauer ranked way too low. Zach Wheeler also ranked very low. So I get Bauer, Packs and Wheeler as my top three. That's very solid. Very Zach Wheeler got rocked yesterday. Yeah,

we we ignored that. Nickta my fourth starting picture. You Wade Miley, Michael Pinata as whatever mix and match that we have saves plus holds. So I just drafted up a bunch of relievers and you have some good ones. You have Hand, Brad Hand, Alex Colum, a Ryan Pressley, Jimenez, and Lou Travino of holds guys. Yeah, secret to this draft. That was the secret to this draft is that we

had to think differently with the closers. I tried to wait as long as I can to grab you know, guys that are ranked really low because they're not gonna get saves, but they get holds. Like Familia I got really late, which I think could be one of the best, you know, relievers in the league in this format. You got Josh Hayter. That's I got hater early though I

took him very early. He's gonna be the best reliever in this format, saves plus holds and whatever he does with the er a whip and strikeouts obviously would probably be the best reliever in this format. And then you get Iglesias, very good, Famelia. That's it. Actually only have three relievers, Yeah, that's by design. Yeah, I wanted to

as well. I wanted to have five relievers in my line up at all times so they can just help me out with ear a strikeout, saves plus holds, and I'll just scream my starting pitchers whenever they come up, right right right, and you'll still you'll get to the innings limit, way past the innings limit with that. Yeah, I have I have like six starting pitchers on my team. Yeah. Yeah, so my team, I actually don't play a lot of

head to head categories. This is my first lead off by this, This is my first league where I've played with saves plus holds, and I didn't really know what to do with it. So I drive like two closers and and cremates Cody Allen, and I later drifted like Ryan Brasier for UM for Boston, thinking like a lot of holds can be there potentially, m That's what I was looking at too. If you play in a safe plus holds league. I was trying to find really good relievers,

obviously who were going to be on winning teams. That's why I drafted Ryan Pressley because I think you get a lot of strikeouts, gonna be a set up man for the Astros lutro Vino. Same thing with the Oakland A's Joe him Inz doesn't really fit that bill because the Tigers are gonna be bad, but I do think that his peripheral numbers is ear a whip and strikeouts will be really good. And if anything happens to Shane Green or they trade him, that and I have the

next man up. So that was the thing there with him in is obviously Slee Callum a as a job for the White Sox, and he's solid. I always get at least that's all I mean. But I think Brad Hand greg is that reliever of this season. I mean Curby Yates. I really like rad Hand could take that Nix. I've been with this, I've been with you the whole way. With that, well, let's take a break here. When we come back, let's getting some win totals for MLB season.

Providers joined the Experts live on the air every day by calling in at April four at six seven nine to join the Fantasy Sports Network, Fantasy Best Friends Forever, Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Anything you want to hit on here before getting these team didn't windiddles the guys anything I mentioned. Joey Luczy is starting on Friday against the Giants. I mentioned him as one of my favorite dreams over the weekend. Who well, who else

we got on that Friday? On not specifically on Friday, I was looking the stat from birthday to Sunday. Here's who I have. I have rode On against the Royals, Roman against the Tigers, Lower against the Giants. I have Freedland against the Marlins, Brad Keller against the White Sox, Luczy against the Giants, Ronaldo Lopez against the Royals, Michael Paneta against the Indians. Any names stand out to you there? Players you want to scream, pitchers, you want to stream?

Um definitely, And I like Freeland a lot, especially at Miami. That was the number one guy we said. I said, yeah, I like Freeland. Um. I also like Uh. I actually like Boyd Maddie Boyd, boy against Toronto in Toronto. It's a little tougher, but I don't think that line ups that good yet. It will be later in the year Laden Bowl, Baschet come up. Then it's a different story. But the lineup is kind of thin right now. You like Boyd, so I think boy could be a decent stream.

He'll be cheap. I didn't get to mention the five starting pictures that I wanted to avoid. I mentioned Marco Gonzalez and Cacuchi. They're both facing Boston Mike Minor versus John Lester in Texas. I don't like either one of those starting pictures, so I would try and avoid both. Leo Tehran against Philly in Philly kind of a tough spot for me because Rons looked really good in the spring, but against the Philly lineup in Philadelphia kind of tough.

And then I had Trevor Williams in Cincinnati against the Reds lineup. I don't really want to start him there, not articularly, but if you don't own Trevor Limbs anymore, I don't, But for anyone who owns them, I would probably mention, what do you think about Tron Greg in Philly? I'm not great. I think well over you're having a good spring. To Greg, I agree with No one talks about it, not enough people. I'm usually the guy was at least it became a big thing, you know all.

I was saying, you let Big Bailey talk you out of him. Jake, he no, But like I don't know if you were call, but I said, I think he's a good three or four guy in a normal pitching rotation in baseball. I never said I love him though where it was fun, he had adventures right again, are edited it all right too? But then he got hurt and he was a message on Perietta. I mean, talk about him. Eight strikeouts in his most recent start in the spring. And if some of the pictures have looked nasty, look,

it wouldn't surprise me. Based on what we saw in the spring, it seems like, you know, working out for him. He's throwing like this cutter slider thing. It looked really good. He's been getting a lot of swings and misses, a lot of strikeouts in the spring. See what happens here with Arietta. I know the swinging strike rate was way down last year, the strikeouts were down, but based on what we've seen in the spring, I think he might be able to bounce back here. Should we start smo

under that's good. We start with the Arizona Divondbacks are over under six corner the Fanuel Sports book at seventy five and a half, Venture over under seventy five and a half for Arizona over on the seventy five and a half, I'm gonna say over over for venture. All Right, I'm gonna say, you know what, Well, did we figure out what the winner of this competition? What do you want? What do you want to win? We could do some one.

What I was thinking was the other two losers, Yes, combining money to buy the winner a baseball player shirt of their choosing. That's awesome. Wow. So I mean it's like thirty bucks. So between the two losers you can find fifteen dollars. I would have just taken lunch, but I'll take it. How are we doing every division? Overy game, every team, every team? Okay, so total once it's well, that's it, Okay, I'm down with it. All right, over run, Uh numbers seems so low. Yeah, it does seem low.

I'll take the over slightly, all right, So the over goes to you, Frank, I will take the under under Arizona pick. They get rid of their best picture, they got rid of their best hitter. They're rebuilding, and I think they can trade some guys a way the deadline, the team that's not really trying to win them going under, you could see it. But I still think that they

have some talent. They do have some talent. Oh, absolutely have a really good Bullpack, but I think any time they developed the very very well trade away the second half of the year pace the Giants a lot. But the reason why I worried about this number is because the rest of the division got better. The Padres got better, The Rockies are still really good. The doctors are always good. Seattle technically, don't County started sew do you get better

on it anymore? Not? Um, I honestly think that even though Arizona kind of dumped some guys, I think guys like Kettle, marte Um, Jake l Am, who's gonna play it hopefully a full season, not be hurt the whole season like it was last year. Guys like that. I know Susan just got hurt, but I think they'll They're gonna help quietly make this team pretty decent offensively, and I think they have that. I think Luke getting Luke Weaver might be a big thing. That might be a

big thing. You know, it's back in the spring to injury, had a really good start, So I like Luke Weaver as well. Yeah, I'm I'm on the slight over here. Greg. Do you take Pakoda projections for the Dakoda standings into account at all when you look at this, because they have Arizona eight. Good Vakoda, good for dakoda bring to me. I just look at my fields. I wouldn't even look at that. That's gonna that's gonna scuw your and I'm telling Frank, because it's gonna screw your thoughts. I'm gonna

use it. That's I'm gonna all right up next, Atlanta Braves, eighty five and a half. You should go first this time last and you were able to go contravera. All right, I'm going under because I think they're all going to be right around this. This is a tough dinner all between eighty five what do you Raves and half? Eighty five and a half. It's so high after such a great season, I know, but I could see them coming down to earth a little bit here. Eighty five and

a half. I'm gonna say. I'm gonna say under, under for Venture and under for Greg No. I said under, thank you for listening. I didn't even know what he said, so I said under. All right, So the Braves won nine games last year, not happening again. Right here, We're gonna take the under two. I just don't trust the under across the board. You know that they have a lot of young starting pitchers, but you're asking a lot out of them. I would have really liked to see

this team end up with Craig Kimberle. I still have some question marks about the bullpen to have in the rotas banged up right now too. I like the lineup a lot, but the rest of this division is really good and has really good pictures. Yeah, I'll take the slight under, but I think the teams are gonna be right. You go first, next the Baltimore Orioles fifty eight and a half under, says Frank, all right, I will also go under. Think about this guy and they got worse,

and they got worse. Did the rest of the vision answer? Yeah? I think this has got to be unanimous under here. All right, so another unanimous one under eventure. You'll start this. You'll go with Boston at ninety four and a half. It's four and um, I know that's a ton hold on it. Will face Baltimore. This is such a good do you face a team in your team Orioles, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go under under for Boston. All right, I'll go for I'll go next here. I'll go over

for Boston over night four and a half. They're good, really good. They're good. Yeah, but they lose Craig Kimberl What do they do for the bullpen? There garbage to payroll after winning a championship. I think it's so you guys have the same on everyone. So if I'm different twice, yes, we've gotta take something different here. I'll take that. I'm just by the way quick. Um. I put my laundry in this morning, right before I came into work. It's

a good system we have. I put the laundry in, and Judy puts it in the dryer before she goes in the shower, gets out of the shower, gets dressed, takes out of the dry puts it back in our apartment. Laundry is done. That's great. That's a great system. Right. So I put it in and we had like a ton of like um color stuff that darks, right, a ton of the darks. We had darks in a white machine. So pull the darks in and it's really a lot. So I wrote down three detergents, so I put two in,

two in the darks. Right, makes sense, But the white started out, come come into work, and I sit here and I put my hands in my pocket. Here's the other detergent that I never put in whites. It right now in the air. That Judy will never know that this was not in the whites. I will send herd. So you gotta redo it. No, no, no, no, we're not redoing it. They're they're done. The water washed adventure. The water washed, the water washed it hot wood, it was it was warm. Warm is not good enough. Hot

hot you kill the germs at the hot one. Warm doesn't work. I don't know how people wash their clothes, but it's good to hear a different perspective because I washed my clothes on cold, so no darts are in cold. And if you have detergent, I mean detergent, if you have this, I don't use. If you have that, you find you're fine on warm. But if you're just using water, he's a d percent right. But the problem, the problem is, uh, it's all done. It's done. It's not in the apartment already.

New definition to slimey Greg. You know most't wear white. You see me in white. Just just assume that. All right, Well, I'll get back to it comes eighty seven and a half over under I started the last time. I think you're I'm up for I'm up first serial. There's a couple one this top is one for me. Thus far comes eighty seven and a half, wild card and tough it. I'm gonna go under very tough division. When got games

next year? Yeah? Really yeah, I'm gonna wonder because I think't Unfortunately, I think I feel like this team can eplode a little bit Joe Madden's last year in Chicago, potentially. I don't know what the I'm going under, Frank, what is it? Eighty seven and a half. I think the under as well. Worry about the bullpen a little bit. There's there Pedra Strope. Is he healthy? You get Brandon Morrow back? It seems a little sketchy. I don't like

John Lester. The rest of the rotation is pretty good, though. Lineup is an X factor. I'll tell you over I'm going over a right. So the first one, Frank and Chris are different. On next out the White Sox seventy three and a half. The South Side socks um, they're pretty bad. Let's see, lastly they won six two games and what was it you said seventy three and a half. For what it's worth, Pakota has the Cubs projected for seventy nine. Nice, I pick the under. Nice, I'm gonna go.

I'm gonna go under slightly. White Sox slightly. It was under for the White Sox. Frank, White Sox win sixty two games last year. I think they'll be improved, will will be twelve games improved? Probably not. I'll take the under as well. Al Right. Not a tough division, so I actually I actually liked the over a lot here um. The lineup could be good, it could be good. I'm worried about the rotation. It's a rotation, and I think it's unfortunately. I think it's a number that I don't know.

This team is a thirteen game improvement team. So that's why I'll stick with the It's a good number. That's good number. Good number. Frank, you're gonna even you like the over a lot, You're going first, Frank, Cincinnati reads at seventy and a half. This whole ann Central is really tough to read a lot of X factors here in the red rotation, Sonny Gray, Luis Castillo. They have upside,

but do they live to their potential. Ye in a contract a year me and a half at least, talking sixty eight and a half, you said, I'm sorry, I keep missing the slight takes the over on the Reds. I take the under on the Reds. I think this team, like thinks it's good, like isn't good. And I think they fall apart with the zero pitching that they have in a very tough todition. In comparison, what is the Pirates. We'll get to that, but it's seventy seven and a half me the it's on me. It's probably be in

the Pirates seventy and a half. I'm gonna say. I'm gonna say over going over going over a right, So I'm again different lineage here, and I like the rotation a little bit, all right. The Cleveland Indians ninety and a half games, they're going over ninety and a half games. Division is very bad. They win more than ninety games absolutely with that pitching staff. Over the Cleveland vent ninety and a half. Yes, over over over. I don't care

about the lineup. It's the best rotation in baseball, Frank and then wins last year Minnesota Twins are coming for them. Best rotation. Frank goes under Chris Ventra over under eighty four and a half games for like Colorado Rockies, my team and my annal team. I love Colorado absolutely, I should have warred right, Um, who is it again? I'm sorry? Eighty four and a half? Eighty four and a half over what over? I love this team. They're gonna gonna

make them the surprise team that wins a division. Eighty four and a half. You're going to be right around that. I will take the almost comes down to the pitching still really good, offense over slightly. Yeah, I think he's six, so I think it's a slight over. Also, I'm gonna go under. I think it's a slight over eighty five eighty six games. I agree with you. We're all over Colorado at eighty four and a half. Frank, you're at first.

The Detroit Tigers, including their star starting pitcher Frank already forgot already forgot his name, Spencer Turnball. Spencer Turnball didn't tell us what the number is? Great sixty eight and a half, sixty eight and a half. Last year they win sixty four games. This team is straight trash man straight. I read you guys, that rotation Turnbull is gonna be great. I'll tell you right now, it's under for me. There's nobody good at here. It's no funny. That's it. Cabrera

is old and washed. Where's Christian Stewart. I'll also go un. We're going under all of us. I'm up next, going first. This is tough. The Houston Astros ninety six and a half games highest, probably tied for the highest in all baseball nineties. Six and a half for the Houston Astro. Boy, you want to take the over, but it's so high, you're absolutely right. Do you remember how many games they won last year? Greg? Alright, I'll go over. I will also take the over Ventra Yeah, all right, yeah, I

have to up next. Kansas City Royals are over unders at sixty nine and a half. Ventra sixty nine and a half. Okay, um, I'm gonna say take under on everyone in a division that doesn't seem like an I probably I'm gonna say my Cleveland pick no, slightly over because you want to change, you can change. Yes, she hasn't started yet. You want you wan't change, you can change. I'll change your needs. O. Kansas City say slightly over, slight slightly so bad? And how do you say went

last year? Let what what twelve games? What did they do different? Increased velocity? Greg take June Is for a full season? Where are you going? Yeah? There is much to like. I know hern r o Wage, Baby, let's go. I'm going under. This team is not good. I'm going under two. Yeah, I think they're gonna get coached off. I think coached up all right. One more before we hit the break and you go first with the Angels at eighty two and a half, always right around this range.

Huge contract extension for Rout pitching under Frank Chris. What is the number eighty two and a half? Under for venture Trout leads them over eighty two and a half. I'm going over with the Angels of pitching. She gets healthy. They rock when we come back the second half of the league. Stick around. We're over unders when you're right next.

Radio and on your popular podcast providers. So day one of my Fantasy basketball playoff finals matchup, we each had three players. You only have four pick up for the whole week each and three players on Monday. He picked up a fourth player from Monday Yesterday morning d J on his team and then not pick up an to play Augustine was Augustin did nothing? Michael Carter Williams very good.

On Sunday, I picked up a couple that there is from Sunday four Monday, so I would have the three one of the guys in which I picked up was Evan Fournier, who was great yesterday. So I wound up he had four players, I had three. I wound up going today down by thirteen point nine, which I'm totally fine, way, all good. Do you know how many points DJ Augustine had last night? Thirteen point nine? The actual difference in our matchup to the tenth of a point was the

player that he picked up yesterday in DJ Augustine. Oh that was crazy. So where you still have old week? Oh? Week? Okay, we are right? What happens if it ends like that? Uh? In a tie? So to go down a regular season match? Points? Regular season point scored? Oh god, I hope not. I think it would be point scored, not ahead. It wouldn't make sense that that. I think points squid makes sense. Really, I don't have to look that up now it would.

It should either be most point scored in the season or higher seats you head to head, not even if I wouldn't have to add it, but most points scored, because you know you deserve that person. The person I had the most points already got money, though, what does he want? No? No, what most points scored within the matchup you're in. So it might not be the most point scored in the league, but whoever is most so my opponent and I are the top two scorers in

the league. He finished first and I finished second. Cause that steaks the Bennet's cancer. He's gonna go off now. Alright, So if we did it in matchups, Oh man, I don't have that either. I only I only played him once and I lost. It doesn't matter that breaks. You got a whole week win. Dick fightal on the morning after that was good spot shot, excellent job man, excellent. Next all right, um, let me get back to the

over underwind totals. We're up to Chris Venture going first with the Los Angeles Dodgers set at ninety three and a half. Three and a half. Um, I'm gonna go under division. I think this rotation has obviously good arms in it, but I think it falls apart like these guys like ry you made a Ryo made a strippling. We didn't hear about the lost lost Peak? Got it Peak? Can't? I can't do that, can do it? Um? These guys are gonna pitch enough innings for them to be good enough.

I'm actually on board with venture here under. I think a lot of you know, the Padres are gonna force him to, you know, lose the fat game. Last year. The Rockies gonna be pretty good. I took the slight over on the Diamondbacks. I don't think they're a push over. Yeah, they're gonna take the slight under. I'm gonna take the over here. I saw think the Dodgers remain the best team in this division. Dave Roberts always hasn't playing well in the second half. I stick with it. I'm going

with the over for the Dodgers. Miami Marlins are up next, Frank. They are over unders at sixty three and a half SAU. I'll go first for this one. He went first before the Angels. Uh, sixty three and a half the over under and the Marlins in a really tough division. Unfortunately they go over sixty three and a half. Wow, he likes the mall and why not? Is gonna hit like they won sixty three games last year. They're better, They're better than they were last Who's number sixty three and

a half? Man take the others to take the under, Frank, I want to tell you all right. Frank takes the under you go to venture. Uh, I'm actually yeah, I'm gonna go on there. You're gonna trade away all the veterans in that line. I've traded with a bulla slightly numbers. A lot of people like the rotation, like I'm going different, I'm going to contrary, and this is how I'm gonna win a free shirt. I think you like, I'm thinking just going to change it. No, No, well, if certain

guys pan out, it could be easily. I think it's gonna be real close to that, better than your where you have to go first, Frank. The Milwaukee brew crew at eighty six and a half, how do you guys it? Last year six squad umral they won ten games. Drums No, Corey Knabel, Jeremy Jeffers already hurt. Rotation is a lot of youth. They lost their pitching. It's gonna be really good copings in a half. Greig slight over. I also will go they slight over. I just yeah to me.

Around ninety ninety six was a lot of games that they won last year. Hitting is really good. They stay healthy. I'll go over, I'll go over. I'm gonna go on there. Pitching the starting rotations. You don't believe in Colevin Buns. I don't believe in anybody but maybe Freddie perraulta. But I don't see him really, you know, I seem getting shell every doesn't get it done for you would draw another one. He's not gonna pitching offendings. Probably most of

the pitchings garbage. I think this is a team that makes a trade for a picture. They would have to, yeah, waiting, this team a trade for a picture. And they traded for Wade Miley, and they traded for finding Ardo and they they won ninety six games last year. I'll tell you what. They'll beat up teams with the bat with the bats, but they're gonna lose a fish air of games because of the pitching. Chris Ventra the Minnesota Twinkies eighty four and a half. We know Frank's going over. Yeah,

this is a tough one. I kind of like them a little bit too. One seventy eighty four and a half. I'll be honest, I don't love that number though. I don't love it. You're not locked an. I don't love it either, But I'm gonna go over because the division is just brutal. Ye I'll go over as well. Take it three for three. I'm taking the over. But I'll tell you what, Greg, I don't like this number. Originally I wanted to bet the over on the Twins, and I was hoping it was around like eighty two and

a half. That seems a little bit more fair to me, But I get it. I guess it's a division that they play in, um so I think they're right around you. Six wins, So I don't love that number, but I'll take a slight over the New York Nets eighty five and a half games Ventra the first, Yeah, because you didn't really go first that time, Frank, you cut me off. Alright, So the Mets won seventy seven games last year. Are

they eight games improved or nine games improved? Rather? The answer is yes, Ther says, venture goes over over well over a right, I think they win ninet. I think they're good taking the over as well, all right, take the Mets. Things always seem to go wrong for the Mets, so hey, under they got a manager leading the group, right, just telling you how I feel. Things always seem to go wrong with the best. I think everything is just gonna jell together. Maybe just depended on the health of

their pitching. Yeah, I mean that's going to carry them. But the lineup is improved as well. And love Robinson canoe this year. Get Familiar back too, great. Yeah, that is one of the best thing. If these guys are hurt and this isn't you know, I'm going to miss out on this easily. But if they stay healthy then and Greggy over here is screwed New York Yankees nineties six and a half. I'll go over because they're the best team in baseball baby in the world too, which

is great. You want to go over? What is and a half? No, I don't go first. I went first, thread I said over, and then Franco's next get packs it is really good. Gets a beat up on the Orioles and the Blue Jays. I'll take the slight over it. I'll go under. I'm not going to fact those under on the Yankees wins because I don't have the Yankees winning the World Series. Neither do I a game and you not have to win in the World Series. And

you think I'm the Homer, but I don't. Uh. Philadelphia Frank Verst this time Philadelphia Phillies eighty eight and a half too high, too high. I worry about the pitching. I like Nola, I like Pavetta. See what we'll see what Arietta gives them. Man, I feel like they're they're there's given too many wins to uh to Bryce Harper

being with this team, and I love Harper. But the last year the Philadelphia Phillies when eighty games, ten more than they did, your go tough division, I'll take slight under, slight under eighty eight and a half, right, eighty eight and a half. You know you're you need to win ten more games. They did last year. They editing Cigar, they added Bryce Harper, they edge Eero meets out. That's enough to add and get everyone else got better too. The all right, so let's pick under for all of them,

that even over the Mets. I don't let a joke over for their numbers. Lower over for Philadelphia, over for the Phillies, over over, says Ventra. So what I do so far? I went under Braves, under Phillies, over Mets. I went over Phillies, I went under Mets, I went under Braves and over Marlin's. So I just didn't The division is just filled with parody. Aything like that. Everybody's gonna be around like eight games. So I think are better than the Phillies. I think the Braves drop. I

picked them under. I think you did not. We all picked them, So they drop. I actin the national, little talk about the national Pittsburgh seventy seven and a half. Seventy seven and a half for Pittsburgh. Where they do and your first is right around here? Will they do? Alicia two seven a half. I'm going to say, Josh Bell, baby, baby, I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say over. I like the

rotation a lot for Pittsburgh. So does frank right over for me as well, slight over for Frankie, which means I will of course be contrarian and go under division in baseball from top to bottom in terms of they are and they maybe the worst team in that division, them in the and the Reds, but I think the rest. You think Pittsburgh and Cincinnati are the worst two teams that division? You said, right, arguable, right, that's what you said, went over both went over on both there they're improved.

I think the winner of this division can win eighty nine games, and the lowest in this division could be seventy seventy nine. I think there's a lot of parody in this. San Diego is at seventy seven and a half. Frank Stafflee mm hmmm, sixty six games last year, Chris Paddick hype train over Greggy lightly the games they win eight. This one's tough was the number seventy seven and a half. This one's to take the Dodgers under two because closer

games between them and the Padres this year. I like Yates. I think the Rockies are like right in the middle between. This one's tough. I'm gonna go under. I'm gonna go slightly under. Here on the paddock, the match, strong trained Greggy, we'll see all things have to go right over. I mean I'm buying into the whole rold tape can carry in for everybody, all right. The San Francisco Giants seventy

three and a half, I don't care what's going first under. Yeah, they have to be under because everybody else everything, we'll all go under. The fact that they were in on Bryce Harper to me was one of the dumbest things. St. Louis Cardinals eight eight and a half Winds. I'll go first. I'm going over venge you're checking your head. No, it was the Brewers number again. Milwaukee was eighty six and a half. We all venture is the under for the Brewers as well, we both have the over for Burers.

I'm going over for St. Louis eat eight and a half. It's too high leaving the breakfast and last year are they better than last year? The win eighty nine or nine. I'm going to win a division then yere first for this one, my friend the tail. They raised the eighty four and a half. They're a tough one right there to first time. I feel good about it. We want under. I think they want over their head a little bit.

Last year. I think it's worth out well. Everything worked that really well, man CHOI under eighty four and a half for me, under eighty four and a half for you? For me, I will go yeah, I'll go under under for Chris Ventra, a lot of really bad teams in the American League, I think you're clearly better than the Oreos. Eighty four and a half is a good number though it won ninety last year. They add Charlie Morton, Greg, I think the over they're gonna be in the mix

for a wild Cards. I don't think this lineup is gonna be very good at all. Over see that every year they how they get a full year out of Tommy fam they always do well. I know Austin Meadows full year four and a half nine last season, and they get Charlie Morton too. I don't like the rest of it. If the Smell and Morton, I don't like the rest four half good because if they do go over, it's not gonna be by a lot. It's gonna be

eighty six be in the mix for wild Cards. Have a lot of bad teams in the American League, Boils, the White Sox of Tigers. The problem is is the Oreoles Mariners. I don't dangers. I don't think they have the hitting to beat up on teams. Though I don't think they have it. They have the pitching, Yes Snell moves, they have the opener strategy point. They'll get Brent Honey well back prospect. I also a good number, though it's close there as I don't think that bullpen's gonna have

because we have about three. I'm timing it fine. By the way, Kyle Hendricks sign a four year extension. It comes the most boring pitcher in baseball four years, four years, fifty nine, fifty five point draft more or less great. I don't care about Kyle andrex Man. All right, Glorio is cursing your name somewhere up next and missed my spreadsheet. The Texas Rangers at seventy and a half. We'll go Frank here first. Texas Rangers. They win sixty seven games

last year. They're very bad? Is Woder their manager? Ri Chris Woodward under? Yes, yeah, this is the first year. Right, you're going Where are you going? Chris seventy and a half. Yeah, I'm going under. I'm also going on. I don't say that anything in Texas this year. Toronto Blue to Jay seventy four and a half, Christie Store with you, seventy four and a half. He's a good number. I'm gonna go under. The kids come up and they start mashing

and it's fun. They're gonna come up too late to make it matter, I think, like but Chet, well for sure, I'm going over. I think I think the Blue Jays have been fun. I think they're they're kind of like this year's raised. They're staying there for a little longer than ways back. This is one of those swing ones, because it's either the they're gonna be right around this number. Would you take? He said, under you can chere into

both of us. The pitching is too bad. Aaron Sanchez, Oh that sounds good to One more to go is the Washington Nationals at eight and a half. You knew this one was coming. I'm going over, Washington Nationals over for me, frank over for me as well over for frank Um. This team rips the whole little bit. Yeah, I'm gonna go slightly over and we are all over on the Gnats like Nats and Mets over. I have the Phillies braves in Marlins. Alright to me, we're locked

and loaded. There are no changes of winner will win a player shirt of their choosing at the end of the season. Can you send me all of that of everything we picked because I forgot everything. Isn't it more fun? Isn't it more fun the season if you don't know what you picked? No, Because then I'll just look at and be like I did not pick this team, because you know you don't trust me that. No, I'll look I'll look at the team and I'll be like I

didn't pick this team. To win games or whatever. You know. I'll no, I'll remember Blue Days. That's gonna be the one right there. That's the swing. Pick Minnesota could be a swing. There's a lot of couple Pittsburgh. There was a lot of good numbers in there. Tomorrow on the show, We're gonna be joined by Frank Stafele, the father, Frank

Stafell to Frank's one.
