Dodgers keep using the most pitchers, which probably means they have the fewest that get 162 IP+.

Every year, Taijuan Walker sucks me in with his spring stats and I fall in love all over again. Talk me down (or validate my love).
Eno Sarris
12:29
I was out on him, finally, until they pulled 15 (!) bone spurs from his foot. Maybe he can land properly now! (I'm still mostly out)
Brian
12:29
Who are you top 3 late round SP sleepers?
Eno Sarris
12:30
Assuming 15-team... Cotton, Bundy, D Norris, Lynn, Wacha, Gsellman, Happ, Finnegan, Davies.
Frank Baron
12:30
Manaea break through this year? Second half was encouraging. What does he need to do to take another step?
Eno Sarris
12:30
Harder breaking ball.
Pine Needles
12:30
Cody Bellinger O/U 400 PA this season?
Eno Sarris
12:30
Under.

If Javier Baez's ability to tag without looking is the Paris Hilton sex tape of defensive abilities, whose 20-grade skill ranks out as the Hulk Hogan sex tape of defensive abilities?
Eno Sarris
12:32
It's mean but I think of Aubrey Huff in the outfield, Daniel Murphy in the outfield, that route Odubel Herrera took on the Hamels perfect game catch...
Fangurphs

Eno, what can Julio Urias do to improve? he has plus stuff at a young age sure, but hasn't gotten results? Seems hittable?
Eno Sarris
12:33
I was surprised at how mediocre the results on his breaking pitches were. Some focus there might work.

In a draft, do you typically favor sexy upside or boring floor? IE, you're staring at Greg Bird and Kendrys Morales, which direction do you typically pivot? Or try to find a nice balance and make calculated risks?
Eno Sarris
12:34
Sexy upside gets me so often. But necessity will hit me up in the other direction. Like on LABR, my infield is Bird/Odor/Lindor/Sano/Anderson but necessity forced me to an OF of Beltran/Reddick/Pillar/Rosario/Chisenhall and CI/UT of Smoak and Pedro.

Both Taijuan Walker and Kyle Hendricks were throwing high fastballs the past Arizona/Cubs ST game, seemingly in counts they normally wouldn't have last year. Do you think this adjustment is just a ST-let's-try-this-out kind of thing or are we going to see a lot more guys aiming for the high strikeout? Is there anyone who normally hits those high fastballs for power?
Eno Sarris
12:35
High fastball hitters include Brian Dozier, Carlos Correa, Jose Bautista!

I have a live draft this Saturday at noon but we are meeting at 10:30 to start drinking. I’m thinking I should stick with something like Founder’s All Day IPA, what would you roll with so you can make semi-reasonable picks in the mid to late rounds?
Eno Sarris
12:35
Yup, or Easy Jack.
Cory
12:35
Which teacher's pet do you like better this year and going forward: James Paxton or Lance McCullers?
Eno Sarris
12:36
Both full up with injury concerns, so I'll take the stuff I like better: Lance Jr.
Giannis Antetokounmpo
12:36
I am a top 5 player
Eno Sarris
12:36
I know it, and you know it but
Billy Beane
12:36
The silver lining to Sonny Gray's injury is Andrew Triggs is now a lock for the rotation. That should be fun.
Eno Sarris
12:36
Can't wait to track that changeup.
Fauquier
12:36
How are you feeling about Chris Archer heading into this season? He was a bit of a rollercoaster last year - I think I recall a few games where he K'd 9 or 10 guys while coughing up a 4-5 ER loss. Is he a true ace or are we all waiting to get Keuchel'd?
Eno Sarris
12:37
I like him this year. Second half showed an adjustment, he was better.
Manfred
12:37
What do you predict for Gary Sanchez in 2017?
Eno Sarris
12:37
.275/.340/.500 with 30 homers.
12:38
It's a little crazy, but it's not a lot crazy if you start with projections.

12:38
Name one reason in a language other than English why Mike Trout is a first round value.
Eno Sarris
12:38
Er tut alles.
Al Shababson & Albert Qaedanski

Why are you ignoring us?
Eno Sarris

Who do you like better for this year and long term. Rodon, Fulmer, or Nola? Thinking of making an offer of Smyly+ for one of them.
Eno Sarris
12:39
Fulmer highest floor and probably second highest ceiling (Rodon's ceiling is tantalizing).
William Faulkner
12:39
Have you actually read "The Sound and the Fury"? It might be the best written book ever, I am super glad I read it, and I HATED reading it.
Eno Sarris
12:39
Didn't he have sentences that went on for pages and chapters that were paragraphs? I mean, yeah, I think I remember about the same.
Pat G

FYP draft for dynasty, who's your favorite: Moniak, Keller, Groome, Acuna, Collins, or Mejia?
