00:00 Intro
01:17 I am noticing a lot of the time the optimal showdown lineups are actually -10% to -40% ROI. I’ve gotten so confused about what metric I use to rank lineups.
11:20 In last nights showdown I put 20 x 1.00 showed up as 30 x 1.00 30 x .25 showed up as 34 and 40 x .05 showed up as 50 x. Not a big deal but 2nd time this has happened. Could I be doing something wrong?
12:28 What do you think about this: unchecked players from both teams, then check players I want from both teams, and then let the SaberSim do his thing.
14:03 By chance, can you go over the process of viewing the lineups/exposures for a certain lineup group?
09:15 What is the best way to separate the projected low-owned versus the projected high-owned captains?
21:35 What should we put our correlation and sim Diversity sliders?
29:01 Where do you get the option for portfolio +?
33:19 Is there a correlation between winners and stacks in MLB? Is a 4-3 stack the best?
37:00 I was wondering how the portfolio diversifier chooses certain lineups?
40:00 I have 450 lineups today in MLB. Do you recommend keeping the duplicate toggle off or on?
43:24 What is the best process for a beginner, from the time they open the SaberSim and want to play an NFL slate?
46:40 What does geo mean even mean?
49:27 When using the portfolio diversifier, if you keep that checked off, it might pull the best lineups for all 150 maxes?
50:43 Is there any column that tells you the point per dollar for each player?
