00:00the dodgers enter in texas rangers and dodgers tonight la a slight road favorite as you would

00:07expect but not nearly as strong as that number minus 136 now the updated price yoshi yamamoto

00:14goes off against jacob de grom over understands at eight drs before we dive into the game

00:20a question here for our producer joe friso to get into our earpieces and let us know

00:25yesterday as we were getting this show ready doing the notes getting ready pre-production all

00:30that stuff i am pretty sure that this headline for this game was world series preview question mark

00:37why the change joe have we lost faith in either the dodgers or the rangers to be there at the end of

00:44october didn't want to be attacked on a friday and yet he still was asked questions live on air all

00:54right to the game drs dodgers a slight road favorite with yamamoto on the bump what do you

00:58see happening tonight in arlington yeah if you're looking at just names on the man like whoa de

01:03grom's back should be able to dominate tonight maybe he does but coming into the season here again

01:07limited access last year looking to regain that cy young form that he had with the new york mets

01:11is at 14 and two-thirds innings pitched a 4.30 era and a 4.62 xvip number which isn't very good

01:18now conversely look at the opposite side here and that's yamamoto's 22 innings pitched on the season

01:23ben a 1.23 era translating to a 2.19 xvip number so the better pitcher on the mound today

01:29is not jacob de grom it's with the dodgers so you're looking at that price point on the road at

01:33minus 146 or so that does make some sense and understand this too looking at right-handed

01:38pitching against that dodgers lineup hasn't worked out all that well elevated iso power numbers and

01:42weighted on base percentages all throughout that lineup if you want to pick your poison with de grom

01:4726 batters he's faced as a right-handed pitcher against right-handed talent at the plate

01:51an 0.40 iso and a 2.12 weighted on base percentage you have to like that however you got lefties in

01:56that lineup like otani freddie freeman michael conforto tommy edmund who's a switch hitter and

02:00the same thing with max muncie batting from the left-hand side jacob de grom through 37 batters

02:05this year has high elevated iso power numbers at 452 and also weighted on base percentage at 456

02:11so if i'm looking to attack from a prop perspective it would be the left-handed bats going up against

02:15jacob de grom but i gotta tell you very rarely that you would see a home team in texas which is a

02:19quality team going up against the dodgers and look at that price point say i think the dodgers

02:24might be a little bit cheap today they should get to de grom a bit and you take a look again

02:27at yamamoto he's been really good that minus 146 price viable for the dodgers today
