Matt Chapman +110 vs Vladdy

[TheLock]

My first instinct (and 15 minutes on Fangraphs) tells me Chapman is the play.

What’s SBR think of the Chapman v Vlad Jr matchup.

SBR thinks that is a losing wager.

Fading SBR is usually a disaster (wait, no it’s not).

Ok. We need more feedback. Who are we on Chap or Vlad, boys?

[TheLock]

Chapman went to +127 so took it for a unit.

Just browsing stats of both these players and Chapmans numbers are superior. Vladdy crushes it in batting practice.

Guess I like your play more at plus munny. Tailing on Chapman.

We're only talking first round head to head wager here. Vladdy vs Chapman.

The more I look at the stats the more obvious it becomes as to who is the MUCH better value.

Chapman is the play.

I know
I'm just asking if anyone thinks he has a shot

Its hard enough winning a head to head matchup, I'm not playing anything where 1 guy has to beat a bunch of other MLB hitters in order to cash. Round by round is the only way to go here. Give yourself a chance to win.

Chapman down to +106 at Bookmaker

Chapman has more raw power.
Chapman ftw

[TheLock]

There’s a part of me that feels Chapman is square (widely available stats) but then the other part of me thinks Vlad is square (all the Vlad hype and monster length HRs this year).

So I like the dog.

Why put so much thought into what you define as square?

Vlad is being overbet because of his reputation as the next great hitter but he's accomplished nothing as of yet.

Chapman has already proven himself as the better hitter so far, getting plus money on the superior player because the public is betting on the Vlad hype is definitely sharp.

Not sure about that pick.

What about him?

Chapman ftw

Chapman may be the play, but please dont say Chapman has more raw power. Not sure anyone has more raw power in the field than Vladdy

No disrespect to Vlad but have you seen some of Chapman’s bombs?

[firedawg]

What about him?

he got a shot?
i say YES

[pimike]

he got a shot?
i say YES

Not sure the format but don’t think he beats Bell?

[2ndchance]

Bregman vs pederson = pederson takes it my guess would be

[stake1]

I’m going with the following

Chapman over jr
Acuna over Bell
Alonso over Santana

Pete Alonso to win the million bucks

[thomorino]

Oakland is one of the toughest parks in MLB to hit a home run in and Chapman is bigger than Guerrero, the line looks inflated.

Different people have different thought process checklists they go through when risking money?

I like bigger stronger guys in this.

[pilebuck13]

Yikes kids a beast

[jameski999]

Hard to put money on this stuff. Most guys pitching aren’t following the rules

[pilebuck13]

I’m gonna say we’re smoked here lock

[navyblue81]

Unmmmm....good luck. You’re gonna need it.

[pilebuck13]

He just broke the record fuk lol

[big joe 1212]

Lost before he even stepped in the box

[jameski999]

Guy pitching the ball before the last one lands. If Chapman’s dad follows the rules he doesn’t have a chance

[dlowilly]

Speak English you fuks

Congrats, we were on the "sharp" side and got smoked. Over before Chapman started.

Seriously, why even have rules if they don’t enforce them
