: Happy February
|
| 12:06 |
: Not so happy for many unsigned players …
|
| 12:06 |
: Let’s chat …
|
| 12:06 |
: When does the prospect stuff get posted today?
|
| 12:07 |
: A LOT of prospect content this week
|
| 12:07 |
: And I believe there will be several posts today
|
| 9:02 |
: Hello friends |
| 9:02 |
: Welcome to Friday baseball chat |
| 9:02 |
: Hello, friend! |
| 9:02 |
: Hello friend |
| 9:02 |
: How is everybody’s morning/afternoon? |
| 9:02 |
: Fine |
| 12:07 |
: Kiley estoy aqui |
| 12:07 |
: When will your top 100 drop? |
| 12:07 |
: Okay schedule is a good place to start here. Just recorded a podcast with Carson but it isn’t up yet so I guess I’ll break some news (?) that the top 100 drops Monday and there will be a whole week of top 100 related content. |
| 12:08 |
: The list is essentially done now, gonna lock it tonight, so I can talk in generalities about some players but don’t want to give too much away. |
| 12:08 |
: And since we’re blowing this out a bit and the Braves list is like 1/2 on the the top 100, that and the Yankees list got pushed back a bit but should both be coming soon after prospect week. |
| 12:09 |
: And sortable 2018/2019/2020 draft rankings drop the next Monday, so it’s a true 7-day week of rankings |
| 12:03 |
: Morning, everyone. Would like to extend condolences to the family and friends of Kevin Towers, who people in baseball held in high regard. |
| 12:03 |
: How is the outlook for Jose Siri? He crushed it last year |
| 12:04 |
: I buy it. Think he’s talented enough to make the approach (which is horrendous) work. |
| 12:04 |
: What would an Atlanta package have looked like to match what the Brewers gave up for Yelich? |
| 12:07 |
: Not sure there’s a clear match on prospect quality/readiness and package depth. Maybe something like Soroka, Anderson, Riley and a 40? |
| 12:07 |
: Do the A’s have a true top of the rotation guy in the minors? Puk is a little wild for that designation I think |
| 12:05 |
: Greetings!
|
| 12:05 |
: Man, there are a still a lot of unsigned free agents …
|
| 12:05 |
: Including 11 of the FG (Dave Cameron) top 20 …
|
| 12:06 |
: Let’s talk it out ..
|
| 12:06 |
: Is Miguel Sano’s “situation” the reason that the Twins haven’t done anything other than signing Addison Reed?
|
| 12:07 |
: Well, the Twins have signed Fernando Rodney and Zach Duke, too …. But wouldn’t Sano’s issues be more reason to kick the tires on, say, Todd Frazier?
|
| 12:56 |

|
| 12:02 |
: What’s your take on Ohtani’s cost in ottoneu? I initially put a $20-25 band on him at first pass, but now I’m wondering if I’m at least $10-15 low after reading reports…
|
| 12:02 |
: I dunno. I mean, I’m excited, you’re excited, he just had elbow surgery last year and probably can’t throw more than 150 innings. I think James Paxton level is about right.
|
| 12:02 |
: What’s your favourite type of cheese? Don’t say melted…
|
| 12:03 |
: Just to like, pick up and eat? Emmenthaler, Gruyere — swiss.
|
| 12:03 |
: What’s your snack food of choice?
|
| 2:01 |
: Commence the composition of our baseball quodlibet.
|
| 2:02 |
: Hosmer to San Diego?
|
| 2:03 |
: If this happened? ROFL Padres.
|
| 2:03 |
: At what price point does Cain make sense for the A’s? 3/60?
|
| 2:03 |
: Not sure it’s relaly the best fit. There are contenders that ought to be interested in him.
|
| 2:03 |
: Where do I end up and will I still get $200 million?
|
| 12:03 |
: Hello from sunny Orlando. I am prepared to chat with you. |
| 12:03 |
: Hi Kiley. |
| 12:03 |
: Hi Kiley, |
| 12:03 |
: You guys are so formal, you can just skip to calling me biased next time |
| 12:04 |
: Hi Kiley, what are your thoughts on Cristian Pache’s ultimate offensive ceiling? Thanks! |
| 12:06 |
: He’s an interesting one. I’ve joked that he’s an LSU wide receiver athletically, so almost anything is possible in the long-term. More practically he needs to refine the approach and lift the ball a little more, but he’s also a 70 runner and if doesn’t improve at all he’s something like Kevin Pillar, which may not be what Braves fans want but that’s an everyday guy. |
| 12:01 |
: Oh hi hello, Eric Longenhagen here from relatively chilly Tempe (38 degrees this morning). I hope you’re all ready for baseball. It approaches. |
| 12:01 |
: Some stuff really quick… |
| 12:01 |
: I was on the pod with Carson: https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/fangraphs-audio-luis-robert-and-the-wh… |
| 12:02 |
: And wrote up Conner Greene, who was dealt over the weekend: https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/instagraphs/scouting-the-talented-frus… |
| 12:02 |
: Okay chat, let’s do this. |
| 12:02 |
: Favorite under the radar Braves prospect? |
| 12:05 |
: Greetings!
|
| 12:05 |
: It’s been awhile with the holiday last week …
|
| 12:05 |
: But don’t worry, we haven’t really missed anything ….
|
| 12:06 |
: 29 of Dave’s Top 50 free agents remain unsigned
|
| 12:06 |
: Best guess as to who’s still out there in, say, June, waiting for the “right offer”? I got Arrieta.
|
| 12:06 |
: I would be shocked if a top name was waiting until June … but I could see some high-profile March signings
