: Welcome to Friday baseball chat

: Hello, friend!

: Hello friend
|
| 9:05 |
: Your rare absences only serve to make me appreciate your presence all the more

: Now that Mike Trout has been proven to be bad, will the Angels be trading him?
|
| 2:08 |
: Hey you. I… I:
|
| 12:01 |
: Why no Haitians in the MLB, compared to the DR pipeline?
|
| 12:01 |
: Less infrastructure overall, less baseball infrastructure in particular, and maybe French influence pushes youths to soccer.
|
| 12:02 |
: my team already sucks what do i do now
|
| 12:02 |
: get really into prospects?
|
| 12:02 |
: Have you ever done a high stakes NFBC type of league? Ive been playing regular roto with friends or ottoneu for 20 years. Whould I get slaughtered like a lamb playing in a 1000$+ league like that?
|
| 12:01 |
: Happy Wednesday, everyone.
|
| 12:02 |
: Plenty to talk about this week; the wildly entertaining WBC, Eric’s Top 100 and the updated prospect valuations we rolled out, new Statcast data, every Rockie getting hurt…
|
| 12:02 |
: So let’s chat for an hour or so.
|
| 12:02 |
: Do you agree with Moncada as the #1 overall prospect?
|
| 12:04 |
: I think it depends on what you’re emphasizing. It seems pretty likely that he has the highest upside of any prospect in this class, and if you think he’s going to hit for a lot of power or get the strikeouts under control, he’s a franchise player. Of course, given that Benintendi is more likely to produce value in the short-term and seems to have a lower risk profile, it’s perfectly reasonable to take a bit less upside in order to get a higher probability of some value.
|
| 12:04 |
: For the Red Sox, keeping Benintendi was probably the right call, since he’s more likely to help them this year. If I’m the White Sox, and I’m looking way down the road, I probably do prefer Moncada.

|
| 12:01 |
: And the season is now less than a month away, so plenty of 2017 expectations to talk about.
|
| 12:01 |
: If the Tigers bomb this year, what are the chances Verlander could be moved at the deadline as a Quintana alternative? How many teams need aces?
|
| 12:01 |
: I guess I don’t really see too many scenarios where Verlander is good enough to have a lot of trade value but the Tigers are terrible enough to want to move him. I’d guess that if they’re lousy, so is he.
|
| 12:02 |
: Hi Dave! Big fan. Do you think starting pitchers will neutralize last year’s HR binge or is power here to stay again? It definitely puts more people in seats.
