: Hey guys!
|
| 2:00 |
: The chat has started.
|
| 2:02 |
: Thoughts on delino deshields going forward?
|
| 2:03 |
: I think a lot of it comes down to how good he is full-time defensively in center
|
| 2:03 |
: The results have been mixed – I don’t think long-term he’ll contribute enough in a corner. Luckily he has a clearer path
|
| 2:03 |
: You teased the Yankee list today. When is it coming out?
|
| 12:04 |
: Happy 2018, everyone.
|
| 12:04 |
: I hope everyone enjoyed their holidays.
|
| 12:04 |
: We’ll start a few minutes late today, but should be chatting in about five minutes.
|
| 12:10 |
: Alright, let’s get this party started.
|
| 12:10 |
: Finally! a chat!
|
| 12:11 |
: That’s right! We’re back, even in MLB is still apparently on vacation.
|
| 9:03 |
: Hello friends |
| 9:03 |
: Welcome to Friday baseball chat |
| 9:03 |
: My last Friday baseball chat for a while! |
| 9:03 |
: Hey Jeff! what’s the hold up with Otani being added to the player pages/projections? |
| 9:04 |
: We have an Ohtani player page and projection now. I added him to the Angels’ depth chart about an hour ago but those can take a little while to update on the public-facing side |
| 9:05 |
: Here’s the player page: http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=19755&position=P |
| 8:07 |
: …
|
| 12:01 |
: You pointed me toward Sam dyson in 2016, and James Paxton in 2017. Whose your 2018 difference maker who can be acquired cheaply now?
|
| 12:01 |
: Yo I am here
|
| 12:03 |
: I’ve been into Walker Buehrler (best curve by movement and velo, opportunity, going back to starting), Carlos Rodon (third best starter’s changeup by movement and velo last year), and I still like Treinen and Manaea as lower cost back end pitchers at their positions.
|
| 12:04 |
: Gordon, Granite, and a couple lower Twins’ prospects for Archer. Do the Rays hang up?
|
| 12:05 |
: probably not enough for a pitcher getting paid less than ten mill a year.
|
| 12:01 |
: Happy Wednesday, everyone.
|
| 12:01 |
: Will begin the chat as soon as I finish this InstaGraphs post on Longoria trade.
|
| 12:01 |
: Back in a few!
|
| 12:09 |
: Okay, hi everyone.
|
| 12:10 |
: Let’s talk some baseball for the last time in 2017.
|
| 12:10 |
: Why do the Giants want Longoria when they didn’t get Stanton or Ohtani? The Dodgers aren’t going away the next few years.

: Hi everybody!
|
| 9:03 |
: Hi
|
| 9:03 |
: You people need to get out more!
|
| 12:01 |
: Good morning from Tempe. Let us discuss baseball prospects. |
| 12:02 |
: What is Tyler O’Neill? |
| 12:02 |
: I have doubts about his ability to hit but think there’s a good chanc e he gets to enough of his power to play every day anyway. |
| 12:02 |
: Ketel marte for real? His second half/playoff experience has me hopeful |
| 12:03 |
: I’m a believer |
| 12:03 |
: Do you think Enyel De Los Santos can realistically become more than a backend rotation slash bullpen piece? |
| 12:06 |
: Greetings!
|
| 12:06 |
: The Angels have won the offseason so we can all pack up and head home …
|
| 12:06 |
: But let’s chat anyways …
|
| 12:07 |
: Why did the Yankees trade Chase Headley? They have no obvious replacement and his contract wasn’t necessarily bad. It seems like a 1-2 yr deal for a 3B is exactly what they want?
|
| 12:07 |
: Yankees’ stated goal is to remain under the luxury tax threshold
|
| 12:08 |
: And if they can remain under it this season they reset, which is important, as the tax-level increases for multiple-year offenders
|
| 9:07 |
: Hello friends |
| 9:07 |
: Welcome to Friday baseball chat |
| 9:07 |
: Freddy Galvis edition |
| 9:08 |
: Surely I’m going to get more than a 2 year deal, right? RIGHT? |
| 9:08 |
: Absolutely, and the signing team is likely to not be too thrilled about it |
| 9:08 |
: Davis is a good pitcher but he scares the crap out of me |
| 12:02 |
: Welcome to the third day of the winter meetings, where the big news of the day is… Anthony Swarzak? Michael Pineda? Jake McGee?
|
| 12:02 |
: To say it’s been dull so far would be the understatement of the year.
|
| 12:02 |
: So let’s talk about what teams should be doing that they aren’t.
|
| 12:03 |
: Brewers fan so this may be silly, but would a Domingo Santana for Jackie Bradley Jr swap make sense for each side? Red Sox get RH power, Brewers get defensive flexibility.
|
| 12:03 |
: Would make lots of sense for MIL, because Bradley > Santana, so they’d get the better player. Would make BOS worse.
|
| 12:04 |
: What are the chances McCutchen is traded by the end of the week?
