Welcome to a good football show. I'm your host, Pat Crane. Whitney is called the board

check and Ryan Hodge of Roto Hogo, who is going to be joining us for a live baseball draft.

Guys, how's it going? Wonderful. How are you guys doing?

Doing all right, doing all right. This will be in the Puppie 2, which is insane that they

filled the puppy. So really, Pat, you're going to jump us into the Puppie 2.

I'm going to jump us into the Puppie 2. We're going to kind of talk through some thoughts on

baseball in general, this particular tournament in general. Ryan, you've had some really good stuff

on baseball and some player targets. You talked positively about Jalen Rager, which I'm always

going to enjoy, but didn't want to just kind of use that as like a jumping off point

for this larger baseball discussion. And we have the Puppie 2, which has been kind of wild so far,

and I'll jump in that in a minute. But yeah, what are your thoughts been so far on how to attack

this Puppie 2? Given what we just saw with the Puppie 1, Ryan, where are you at on that?

When you say how to attack it, do you mean how to try and get as many entries in before it fills?

I actually built teams because I think there's two different strategies. Look, as soon as they launched

it, I jumped in as many eight hours slow drops as I could. And I think people make

tend to make more mistakes in the in the fast drafts. So if you can, trying to squeeze out every half

a percent of the edge that we can, I think doing fast drafts is probably the sharper thing to do

if you have that time. If you're not planning on maxing it, go get your guys. If you're planning

on doing 50, 60, 70, 150 entries, take value. Like, you know, I mean, there's a lot of great

articles about there around like making sure you're stacking, not reaching for those stacks because

of that value. But if you're playing five entries and you want DAC and CD, like, take them seven

spots ahead of their ADP, like, who cares? Go get the guys that you want better than that strapper value.
