I'm your host Alex bullpen and it is Thursday, August 29th. All right, let's recap a nice winning day from yesterday. So we had four plays going with a goal in three and one. We had eight batters in total going and we had seven correct. So we had a pretty good day yesterday. Let's get into what we had. So we took Jose Ramirez and we paired it with Brett Rooker. So that was a winner for us. And then we took Aaron judge and we paired it with Yoshida and the Boston Red Sox that came through for us. Then we took Alex Bregman and we paired that with Laddie Guerrero on another winner. And then we had Corbin Carroll who actually had two home runs yesterday and we paired it with Juan Soto who couldn't get a hit for us. So that was our one loser actually draft Kings had a profit boost yesterday. And I was able to put all seven of these batters. I usually don't like taking two players from the same team as they shrimp the odds like crazy more than they should. And so I took Juan Soto out and I put Bobby Whitten. So that came through. So that was a nice, a nice couple of units there, just over a couple hundred bucks. So I'll take that for sure. So a nice winning day yesterday. And I got some plays I really liked today. Let's get into what we got. So we're going to take Vladie Guerrero of the Toronto Blue Jays. So prize, surprise that this guy's on an absolute tear. He's four for nine versus cutter Crawford in Boston today. And again, Vladie just crushes in Boston. He's now up to 355 at Boston as he was 350 to start the series, but he just keeps tearing it up. He's got two hits and four of his last five games. So that's perfect. And we're going to pair him with show Hayo Tani, who's also on an absolute tear. He's got two hits and four out of his last five games, and he's going versus Kate Povitch of the Baltimore Orioles, who has not been doing well. This lefty gives up 10.08 hits per nine. So when you pair these two superstars together, you actually get a minus 121, which is not a bad price for these two guys. Our next play, also a good price for two superstars. We're going to take Marcelo Zuna of the Atlanta Braves. Now this guy is three for seven, betting for 29 versus Sanchez in Philly today. So I like that look for him that he's had in three 16 versus left handed pitching, and he's 21 out of his last 24 games. He's got a hit. So that's beautiful. And we're going to pair him with Bobby Witt. Now we're getting a really good price of Bobby Witt because he's going versus Hunter Brown today. However, Hunter Brown can not pitch versus Kansas City. He's got two starts versus him. He is 0 and 2 with an ERA of 36.82. Yeah, was there is that is nasty. So the last time Hunter Brown played versus Casey was this year. And Bobby Witt got a single and a home run in the first inning. They batted the entire order. He gave up 11 hits and nine runs recording two outs before they had to yank him. And actually the time before he only lasted three innings before getting yanked. So he is not been doing well against Casey. So Bobby Witt is two for three with a homer versus him. And when you pair it was zoon it, Bobby Witt together, you get a minus one 20. Love that. We'll take that for sure. Our next play is we're going to take Francisco Lindor of the New York Mets. Now this guy is on fire as well. He's got a hit in 23 and of his last 25 games, monstrous. And he's three for four versus Nelson in Arizona today. So good look on Lindor today and we're going to pair it with Corey Seager, who's also been on a tear. Now he's got hits in eight of his last 11 games. So he had a double header in Chicago yesterday. He got six hits in the double header. So we got two in the first game and four in the second game. And he's going versus Nick Nastrini, the rookie that the White Sox, he wasn't good enough to pitch for their bullpen. So we got sent back down to triple A. He's 0 and 5. He's got an eight 39 ERA. So I like Corey Seager and Francisco Lindor to get one hit each and that comes out of a minus one 12. So I like that look and we got one more play going. We're going to take Alec Baum of the Philadelphia Phillies. Now he is 10 for his last 20 versus Charlie Morton, back in 500 and he's got to hit in 21 of his last 25 games. So he's actually juiced pretty good today. So we had to find somebody to pair with him and I got the perfect guy. We're going to take Lawrence Butler of the Oakland A's. This guy is on fire. He's on a seven game hitting streak. So this is the third game in Cincy for this series. He's got two hits and a homer in both of the games prior. So that's a great look for his seven game hit streak. And we have to pair, excuse me, Alec Baum and Lawrence Butler together and you get a minus one 22. So not a bad price there either. So just those four plays going today. Now I know DraftKings has a profit boost again today. This one you have to use a minus 200 odds or less. So you can't exactly use the one hits for these guys to do it. So what I did is I did two bases and actually some of the prices are really good on it. So I used Bobby Witt, Marcelo Zuna Francisco Lindor, Lawrence Butler, Vlady Guerrero and Showhill Tawny. So all six of those guys to get two bases. And yeah, I think on a seven dollar bet or something like that was the most that would let me put down on this DraftKings usually has some weird numbers where they won't let you bet certain amounts of money. But yeah, it comes up to like a $1,500 play. So I'll take that for sure. I love these guys as matchups today, so that's a pretty good look. All right, guys, after a sick night last night, let's go get it today. And if you're rocking with me, let's roll.
