: Hello friends
|
| 9:05 |
: Welcome to baseball chat
|
| 9:06 |
: Let’s do what we always do!
|
| 9:06 |
: darth is lukes dad
|
| 9:06 |
: let’s get this all out of our systems now
|
| 9:06 |
: How old are you? At what age do you believe you were the unhappiest you’ve ever been? The happiest? I am 28 and this is the worst year of my life.
|
| 10:59 |
: Be here shortly!
|
| 11:02 |

|

: These guys were great last week. A little harder than I thought from their radio hits, but really enjoyed them.
|
| 12:02 |
: What are two simple cost effective moves that could make the Royals good again
|
| 12:02 |
: They need an SP and and a 2B. Wait till Kendrick signs and sign Murphy for less? SP market is crazy full of pitchers. Just put a 3/30 offer out there and wait till someone takes it?
|
| 12:02 |
: Who earns more in 5×5 for next year- Soler or Souza?
|
| 12:00 |
: Alright, let’s get this chat fired up.
|
| 12:01 |
: For those who haven’t seen it, Jeff Passan just noted on Twitter than the Dodgers and White Sox are nearing a trade that would send CHW’s top pitching prospect Frankie Montas to LA. It could be lots of things, but Yasiel Puig seems to be the most obvious thing that LAD would want to move for young talent that would interest CHW.
|
| 12:01 |
: So we can speculate about that, or talk about other off-season stuff.
|
| 12:01 |
: Where does Cespedes land? Tigers? Nationals? Rangers? Somewhere completely random?
|
| 12:02 |
: Tigers, in an Ilitch-engineered deal in January, probably makes the most sense. If they’re really going for it, they’re a player or two short, and he’d help them a lot. No point pushing in halfway.
|
| 12:02 |
: Over the past 4 weeks, have the Braves made themselves much better in the long run?
|
| 9:00 |
: Hi everybody! OK, let’s do this!
|
| 9:00 |
: Hi
|
| 9:00 |
: There is a lot of substance behind the splash the Cubs have made this offseason. Cardinals seem to be missing out (I wouldn’t say they’re missing Cueto, Bob. *laughs*). All I read was the new TV contract money and $200mm for Heyward. Who’s the dance partner they take to the playoffs, Chris Davis?
|
| 9:01 |
: I think they will end up with one of Gordon, Cespedes or Upton
|
| 9:02 |
: Here’s the thing. They don’t NEED any one player. But I think they’d be wise to keep upgrading their bullpen.
|
| 9:02 |
: VEEP!
|
| 11:58 |
: OMG IT STARTED EARLIER, I”M MURDERING THAT SIMPERING JACKANINNY CISTULLI WITH HIS OWN FISTS
|
| 11:58 |
: OK, got that out of the way
|
| 11:58 |
: How does your PC deal with A-Rod?
|
| 11:59 |
: Same way it deals with other players. Not quite sure what you mean here.
|
| 12:00 |
: If you mean the missed year and the injuries, ZiPS has historical knowledge of what missed years and various injuries (very generalized) mean to future performance. If the steroids, there’s still not much in the way of evidence that it has any predictive value for future play.
|
| 12:00 |
: As a Cubs fan, should I be worried about Theo’s lackluster record of FA signings?
|
| 12:03 |
: Hello friends!
|
| 12:03 |
: Let’s baseball chat!
|
| 12:03 |
: This one’s coming to you live from Dave Cameron’s living room. Or, arguably, the room beside the living room, which resembles a living room
|
| 12:03 |
: please friend, baseball chat
|
| 12:03 |
: It’s what we’re all here for
|
| 12:04 |
: Do the Braves have a top 5 system now? Higher?
|
| 11:45 |
: will be here shortly
|
| 11:45 |
:
|
| 12:03 |
: No other suitors for Miller after Astros acquisition of Ken Giles or is a #MYSTERYTEAM preparing to strike
|
| 12:03 |
:
|
| 12:04 |
: That was supposed to say: Dodgers might still want a reliever after the Chapman thing fell through!
|
| 12:04 |
: What the…CiL looks all…weird. When did this happen?
|
| 11:37 |
: coming to you guys live from FanGraphs house in Nashville! start filling up that queue and we’ll get started in ~20 minutes
|
| 11:58 |
: alright, let’s do this!
|
| 11:58 |
: Please give me some good reasons not to be terrified of the Red Sox next year.
|
| 11:59 |
: incredible bullpen, ace starter, Mookie Betts + Xander Bogaerts, and Hanley and Sandoval can’t possibly be worse
|
| 11:59 |
: if I were a Red Sox fan, I’d be feeling pretty good about this year
|
| 12:00 |
: If the White Sox were to sign Upton or Cespedes and trade for Frazier, would that make this legit contenders? Or would it be smarter for them to hold onto their top prospects and go after someone who would cost as much as Frazier (Lawrie, Asdrubal Cabrera, etc.)?
|
| 11:57 |
: OH GOD THE QUEUE STARTED
|
| 11:57 |
: CHAOS! DISASTER!
|
| 11:57 |
: You guys have been here for 30 minutes?
|
| 11:57 |
: NEW SOFTWARE CONFUSING DAN. DAN IS RESISTANT TO CHANGE~!!!!
|
| 11:58 |
: Iwakuma got 3/45. Same for Kazmir? If so, A’s are totally in that price range.
|
| 11:58 |
: Think Kaz will get a touch more.
|
| 9:02 |
: Okay! |
| 9:03 |
: |
| 9:03 |
: And I’m already having problems! |
| 9:04 |
: Well I don’t know what’s happening on my end but let’s just try to do this |
| 9:04 |
: Did Eno teach you where the End Chat button is? |
| 9:04 |
: I bet he was just using that as an excuse to end his chat right at the one-hour mark |
