00:00Time for some salty taters again tonight.
00:03We made you all kinds of money again last night.
00:06What do you got for us tonight, Carver Hyde, a king of taters?
00:10Yeah, big night last night with both McMahon and Suarez.
00:14Late night, too.
00:15So we got some good late night hits, and we're going to try to do it again tonight.
00:19We only have a limited slate, but that doesn't mean we can't find ourselves some taters to
00:23go after.
00:24We'll start in Cincinnati with the Cubs and the Reds tonight, and look who it is, Scotty.
00:29You know how I like to do things, really.
00:31I like going after pitchers, especially pitchers that give up lots of home runs, and that's
00:36precisely what Kyle Hendricks does for the Cubs.
00:39He has been a gas can this year.
00:40He's given up 16 homers in 80 innings so far, and look who we got, Eli De La Cruz for the
00:46Reds at plus 425, and we're getting him from the side of the plate where he hits his most
00:51power on the left side.
00:52You got the soft toss in Hendricks in there.
00:54Let's go big fly for Eli to start things off tonight.
00:58Yeah, I love it because I already told you I like the Reds to finish off the sweep and
01:03bury the Cubs who stink, and here's a perfect opportunity at over 4-1 to make some money.
01:10Let's do it.
01:11We got a double shot from the Padre Dodger game at Petco tonight, so we stretched some
01:15things out because we do have only a couple of games.
01:19We'll start with Manny Machado.
01:21Now, Machado's hot, Scotty.
01:22He's got three homers in the last game, including two last night against the Dodgers, and what
01:27does he do against Clayton Kershaw?
01:30How about 13 for 40 with four home runs in his career off of him, so plus 450 for Machado
01:37tonight to stay hot and beat up on a guy that he sees very well.
01:42Manny time, and then there's so many guys with pop in that lineup, Tatis, Cronenwerth.
01:48There's so many guys that can hit home runs in that lineup.
01:51I love that bet, though.
01:52Manny's on fire, and he owns Kershaw, and you know he wants to do it against the Dodgers
01:56at Petco.
01:57No doubt about that.
01:59On the Dodgers side of things, it's rare that we get this guy above 3-1.
02:05That's why we usually don't see him on the lion's share very often, even though he hits
02:08so many taters, and that is because Dylan Cease is on the mound for the Padres.
02:13Now, he's coming off throwing a no-hitter.
02:14Well, we get Otani at plus 310 tonight, and he's got some history, Scotty.
02:19Three for 11 with two homers off of Cease in his career, so you're going to give me
02:24over 3-1 at plus 310?
02:26We'll put Otani on the lion's share card tonight.
02:28I mean, why not?
02:29You know, I'd love to see a show like that tonight.
02:32I'd love to see Machado hit one, Otani hit one, a great game in San Diego.
02:37Just like last night, 5-0 comeback, beat them 6-5 walk-off style.
02:41How about tonight, a couple of big stars hit home runs, and we rake some cash?
02:46Let's go.
02:47We told you that, at least I told you I'm expecting a nice gas can night in Anaheim
02:53between the Rockies and the Angels.
02:55We got it last night.
02:56We hit with McMahon.
02:57I'm going back to the Rockies tonight, especially against this Davis Daniel, who's allowed three
03:02homers and only 17 innings pitched so far.
03:05Now, we've talked about some guys hot in the month of July, Scotty.
03:08Michael Toglia of the Rockies, who, he's been hot as well.
03:13Two homers in the last week and nine in the month of July.
03:17Plus 400 for Toglia tonight, hitting from the powerful side on the left against Daniel.
03:22I'll take a shot with him.
03:24I like it.
03:25There's a lot of runs that are going to be scored in this game.
03:27I bet the over, just like last night, they scored a ton of runs.
03:30Let's do it again tonight.
03:31Toglia hits one, 4-1.
03:33Let's keep stacking.
03:36One more for that game, because I love going after Kyle Freeland whenever he's on the mound
03:40for the Colorado Rockies, and that is with Taylor Ward, who also has heated up.
03:45Two homers in the last week.
03:46Freeland's given up eight in 52 innings pitched this year, and a nice price, plus 575 for
03:52Taylor Ward tonight in Anaheim.
03:53Let's go.
03:54I'm surprised he's still on the Angels, to be honest with you, so why not bet him at
03:59that price?
04:00Are you kidding me?
04:01He's tough.
04:02A lot of people thought he was going to be moved with that bat of his.
04:05Now he can keep stroking home runs for the Angels.
04:08Start with one tonight.
04:09All right.
04:10Now, we'll go to the Giants and the A's.
04:13Now, let me say a few things here.
04:15We're going to go with Ramos against the Oakland starter, of course, Ross Stripling.
04:20Stripling's not very good, Scottie.
04:21You know that.
04:22Look at his price on Ramos.
04:24Seven to one.
04:25So that's there.
04:26But let me give you some notes here with our guys from July.
04:29We gave you the Rooker and the Butler numbers for Oakland.
04:33Now, here's what scared me off for putting him in the lion's share as a main play.
04:37Webb doesn't give up homers.
04:39We know he doesn't win, but he doesn't give up homers at all.
04:42So listen to these numbers tonight if you would like to take a shot.
04:45The Rooker plus 625 against Logan Webb tonight, and the Butler plus 1050.
04:54That is 10 to one for Butler, who's hit 10 homers in the month of July.
04:58I know Webb doesn't give up a lot, but maybe a small sprinkle, Scottie, with the Butler
05:03and the Rooker to close it out here on July 31st.
05:05I mean, what do you have to lose?
05:07Like, are you kidding me?
05:08The guy's 10 to one, and he doesn't give up home runs.
05:13But like I said, he's not winning either.
05:14So who's to say he doesn't pull a Garrett Cole and put up a meat pie right over the
05:19plate and let Butler rake one?
05:22Hopefully it's against one of those guys.
05:24That's for sure.
05:25And finally, this is a contingent big ball that I wanted to throw you for tonight.
05:31Now, I have been looking, I have been checking.
05:34The Pirates have not put up their lineup yet for tonight in Houston against Frambois Valdez.
05:40But if he's in the lineup, Scottie, for the first time, Brian DeLaCruz putting the bucko
05:46uniform on at plus 775.
05:50You got 18 homers this year.
05:52He does hit for power.
05:54Let's get a big bucko welcome tonight, Scottie.
05:56If he's in the lineup, make sure you check plus 775 for Brian DeLaCruz.
06:02Yeah, honestly.
06:04So we know that IKF isn't going to play until at least August 2nd, a few days away.
06:12So I think DeLaCruz will be in the lineup tonight.
06:15They did what they trade for him to sit him down, give him some rest.
06:18They traded to get that bat and those 18 home runs.
06:21Let's get him injected into the buck lineup tonight.
06:24Welcome to the cannonball show, and he clears the decks at a fat price for Carver High.
06:31Now Taylor's homer two days in a row.
06:35He's 9-1 tonight.
06:36Taylor's homer the last two days, 9-1.
06:39Why not?
06:40He's hit one both nights.
06:41Give me another one 9-1.
06:43I mean, all these guys, Reynolds is 8-1, DeLaCruz is plus 775 with Valdez, of course, the lefty
06:49being on the mound.
06:50Lots of juicy numbers for the Buccos tonight for tater time.
06:55So there you have it for this evening, tater time.
06:58Eli DeLaCruz, Manny Machado, Otani, Michael Toglia, Taylor Ward, Elliot Ramos, and if
07:04he's in the lineup, Brian DeLaCruz for the Buccos for the very first time.
07:11There it is, Scotty, our taters for the lion's share brought to you by BetMGM.
