171: Wow, Ben waking up to do a chat at 7 am local time. The dedication! Love this guy!
10:00
Ben Clemens: I’m leaving for a brief vacation today so I actually insisted on it
10:00
Jacob: Kinda a trade value q, do you think buxton will ever figure it out again or is he cooked
10:00
Ben Clemens: Man, I happened to catch a lot of his at-bats in this week’s Twins/Mariners series, and he’s clearly compromised right now
10:01

bk: Dan, how does ZiPS like Orelvis Martinez moving forward after his breakout season this year (so far)?
12:02
Avatar Dan Szymborski: Martinez is back to pretty much where his projection was – ZiPS was already aggressive with him
12:03
Avatar Dan Szymborski: His projection really fell off in the earl going, but he’s been much better last couple months
12:06
Kyle: Outside of the big names being thrown around (Ohtani/Soto) which players that will be available at the deadline do you think would best help the Phillies?
12:06
Avatar Dan Szymborski: Outside of the big names, it gets unimpressive quickly!

Kyle B: Hey Jay! Over the all star break we heard a ton of talk about the new CBA and started hearing whispers about the next one….do you think we are staring down another lockout in 2026? Possibly missed games in 2027?

Avatar Dan Szymborski: Let’s slowly get this party started!
12:01
Avatar Dan Szymborski: Very slowly – I was late to set up the chat
12:01
Avatar Dan Szymborski: because I was over at mom’s because she incompetently broke her outside faucet and I had to go over there and fix it
12:02
Avatar Dan Szymborski: and it was *really* incompetent. She literally turned one of the handles until it fell off and then basically took the whole thing apart
12:02
Guest: If you could build a pitcher in a lab what’s their handedness, arm slot, and 3 pitch mix (spinrates or break measurement optional)? Fastball sits 93-95.
12:03
Avatar Dan Szymborski: Is this for aesthetics or optimization?

Chutzpah: Who are some prospects in this years draft you might be excited about that are not part of the top 20 group?
12:05
Avatar Dan Szymborski: Carson Roccaforte is one of the top of my head
12:06
Avatar Dan Szymborski: Cam Fisher has really fun power
12:06
Avatar Dan Szymborski: but these are probably Eric questions
