Comment From Joe
Is Dan Duquette a good GM?

12:02
Dan Szymborski: I’d probably say average-plus? It’s harder these days to differential GM performance from the overall front office/ownership

Comment From TJ
Heard this is where I get my French drain tips.

Dan Szymborski: Check your inlet cleanout risers!

2015 World Series Game Four Live Weblog

7:49
Carson Cistulli: This is the World Series Game Four Live Weblog. Please don’t hesitate to begin saying whatever you’ve come here to say.

7:50
Carson Cistulli: Perhaps consider this: what the over/under on infield fly balls induced by Chris Young? That seems like a moderately interesting question to contemplate.

7:52
Comment From tz

7:59
Paul Swydan: Looking at the poll results, it seems that people think that Syndergaard is going to pitch well and that the Mets are going to win. And that they have to win.

Eno Sarris Baseball Chat — 10/29/15

10:58
Eno Sarris: Nervous. Surprising my wife with tickets to a show with Death Cab, Foals, Weezer — sweet — but also CHVRCHES and Silversun, which I know she doesn’t like. Also don’t know how much she loves surprises lol. Oh well, tickets are bought, sitters ready.

Eno Sarris:

Comment From Pat
What are some indicators you look for to find the draft steals like Keuchel was this year? Any early names on your watch list for next year?

12:02
Eno Sarris: I look for elite pitches and good pitching mixes and pitching mix changes. Jared Eickhoff has an elite pitch. Nate Eovaldi has the pitching mix change. As for the good mixes, I’ll have to dive in a little harder in the coming weeks.

12:02
Comment From Art Vandelay
I’m assuming you’re talking about NSSN. The only thing I don’t like about it is with cramming so many acts into one night, aren’t all the sets going to be only four or five songs long?

12:03
Eno Sarris: I am worried about that too. But I saw something about a 530 gate, so maybe it’s just a little long.

Dan Szymborski: (Note: You will not win a taco)

11:59
Comment From Andrew
Is it fair to say Jeurys Familia is challenging Wade Davis for best reliever in baseball at this point? He has really hit a new level this year.

11:59
Dan Szymborski: Having a sweet run lately, but wouldn’t put him as challenging Davis quite yet.

11:59
Comment From Big Joe Mufferaw
Who will win the WS??? In how many games? (someone had to ask).
