Eno Sarris: Lyrics of the day!

You threw me out the building, the middle of the night
momma tried to tell me something wasn’t right
Now I’ve got a problem, I need to do the math
something goes wrong now you’re gonna get half

Why are you so good looking?

12:00

FanGraphs After Dark Chat – 1/21/14

5:48
Paul Swydan: Hi everybody!

Welcome to another exciting Tuesday night where absolutely nothing has happened except snow, snow, snow, and I don’t even mean informer. But we’re going to talk baseball anyway, because maybe that will distract our wives from the fact that we didn’t get wood off the wood pile to build a fire tonight like she told us to this morning! Oh wait, maybe that was just me. Ssshh, don’t tell her I forgot.

9 pm ET. You do questions. We’ll do polls.

9:01
Paul Swydan: As Kanye West once said, when you try hard, you die hard. So don’t expect a lot of effort from Jeff and I. Kidding!

Let’s do this thang.

9:01
Comment From Kam
Are we just going to ignore Paul making a Snow reference?

9:01
Paul Swydan: No, you don’t have to ignore it at all.

Comment From KCFaninPA
Who do you think the Royals should go after as a #2 starter?

9:01
Paul Swydan: Hey lookie lookie, a Royals question right off the bat.

Jays wins in 2014 over/under 83.5?

11:45
Eno Sarris: Here in 15 minutes!

12:00
Eno Sarris: lyrics dedicated to my moms

Wherever you go
Wherever you land
I’ll say what this means to me
I’ll do what I can

The fundamental problem
We all need to face
This is important
But I know you’re not listening
Oh I know you’re not listening

12:00

Was it just me or did Brian Kenney keep calling you “Enus” the other day?

12:00
Eno Sarris: yeah and yet he introduced me as John Hart as one of the greatest young minds in baseball today which is kinda hilarious.

FanGraphs Chat – 1/15/14

11:43
Dave Cameron: It’s a Wednesday, so we’re chatting. Go ahead and get your questions in now.

12:00
Comment From Oren
So, a team that really needs to contend this year team really looks like they’re going to go into 2014 with Ryan Goins as their second baseman. Thoughts?

12:00
Dave Cameron: I’ll believe it when I see it. The off-season isn’t over yet, and even if they go into spring training with Goins as the favorite, that still gives them a month of watching him hit to come to their senses.

12:01
Comment From _David_
I think the question on everyone’s mind is: What do you think of Jesus Sucre and how he compares to John Buck?

12:01
Dave Cameron: Sucre is a better defender, but can’t hit. Buck has some power, but that’s about it. They’re both scrubs.

12:02
Dave Cameron: One minute: dog just stole my shoe…

6:28
Paul Swydan: Hi everybody!

Jeff and i will be here at 9 pm ET to take all of your baseball questions. I apologize in advance for any stupid things we do because of the new Cover It Live format. Like any good American, we tend to hate new things, and while this isn’t totally new I still hate it.

Anyway, see you soon!

9:01
Paul Swydan: One sec.

9:01
Paul Swydan: Alright, let’s do this thing.

9:01
Comment From Meano Eno
Paul, when will Xander be inducted in the HoF?

9:02

Do you trust Liriano for the coming year?

Jeff Sullivan FanGraphs Chat — 1/14/14

9:07
Jeff Sullivan: So, look, I’m always late. I know this about myself.

9:07
Jeff Sullivan: I was going to be a minute late today!

9:07
Jeff Sullivan: Then Cover It Live wouldn’t let me log in and I became seven minutes late.

9:08
Jeff Sullivan: So blame them for 86% of your annoyance

9:08
Jeff Sullivan: Now let’s have us a baseball chat

I commend you for not having smashed anything last week on the ESPN chat. That we saw.

12:00
Dan Szymborski: It was a combination of bourbon and realizing I don’t *have* to flip out at everything and only need to flip out at most things.

11:46
Eno Sarris: I’ll be here at the top of the hour!

12:01
Eno Sarris: lyrics of the day! just barely in time!

And all the laughing boys are bitching
Waiting for photos
Oh the plot is so bewitching.

12:01
Comment From tylersnotes
where is the fangraphs coverage of the craig gentry to oakland trade from last month? some of us have to make decisions in absurdly deep dynasty leagues about whether he is an upgrade over jon jay!

12:02
Eno Sarris: Well, he’ll probably platoon with Coco Crisp, so I feel like his value is just about the same. (Crisp, on the other hand, did you know how bad he’s gotten vs LHP in the last four years?)

12:02
Comment From Guest
Hey Eno…I own Oscar Taveres for a minor league salary, which would be pricey for a potential bench player. What do you project for him in 2014 PA wise?

12:02
Eno Sarris: 150? September-plus? There are two CFs in St. Louis now, and they take their time.
