Brighter future, Smoak or Bird for next season and beyond?
Eno Sarris
12:26
Bird for me. Love his batted  ball mix and plate control. May have worse BA and maybe more risk due to injury but Smoak is old and has decent regression-based risk himself.

can thames get back to any semblance of the early form he showed?
Eno Sarris
12:27
Yes. He was swinging more and more often with every month until this one.

Who should win NL MVP?
Eno Sarris
12:27
I got a vote. Dunno if I should talk about it. Seems like it was obvious until one dude got hurt for a bit.

How did the Nationals acquire so many good position players?
Eno Sarris
12:28
Took some good chances that worked out. Payed shortstop prices for Trea and got a shortstop. Bought an old 2B coming off career season and he continued doing so. Drafted a couple of studs.

Thoughts on lactose in IPA's?
Eno Sarris
12:28
I think I might only like it in milk stouts. Even the sours with lactose are weird to me.

if you're the cubs why not take nicasio for free if you can get him?
Eno Sarris
12:29
He'll be with a new team shortly.

Who'd have a better chance at having a successful baseball career, Tim Tebow or JP Arencebia returning from retirement?
Eno Sarris
12:29
JPA has some skills that could make him valuable on the fringe of a roster.

Amsterdam rec: Brouwerij Troost in Westergas. Blown away by the quality there, and a very good tasting room in a cool park that used to be a factory or something. The best part of the Netherlands is that they love to hop on any American trend, so craft beer is quite popular (much moreso than in the other countries I visited). Was there a few weeks ago and got to go to a craft beer festival sponsored by another good local brewery, Oedipus. A good time had by all!
Maybe I missed this, but how did you get your swing info? Is there a place where you can go and take swings and have that calculated?
Eno Sarris
12:29
Ah that was Zepp. They have for-sale sensors you can attach to any bat.

Bach party in NOLA this weekend, if everyone can get there! Beer recs ?  Or should I stay clear of craft and just drink domestics for ABV and volume proposes?
Eno Sarris
12:32
NOLA brewing? Crescent City? Could also get some Abita Purple Haze and Strawgator, both easy to drink locals.

Why is it that catcher's glove movement can't be a primary determinant for measuring a pitcher's command?
Eno Sarris
12:33
Catchers do different things with their targets, they usually are just showing an approximate area, some hitters peak backwards and cause the catcher to be deceptive, and pitchers try to miss in a direction, so it doesn't allow for quality of miss.

Need your thoughts Eno, Nova has been crap for almost two months, can I cut him for Junis?  Like anything you've seen from Junis?
Eno Sarris
12:35
Cuttable but don't love Junis.

Into wheat beer?
Eno Sarris
12:35
Not hefes that much actually but wheat IPAs I can dig on, like Gumballhead by Victory.

As we enter September, what are your predictions for WC teams in both leagues?
Eno Sarris
12:36
Yanks Angels, Rox DBacks.
PTBNL

Odds the Nats can beat the Cubs in the NLDS if Harper isn't playing?
Eno Sarris
12:37
If the pitchers are healthy, still decent.

Tanaka or Darvish getting more $$$ this offseason?
Eno Sarris
12:37
Darvish.

I don't know where it is in my body, but I will FedEx Buxton my hammate bone right now if it'll have him back this year

If Price is available to make starts in the postseason, who gets bumped from the rotation, E-Rod or Porcello? Or would it make more sense to move Price to the bullpen in a Miller role, like he did in 08?
Eno Sarris
12:38
If he's fully healthy, E-Rod. I'd imagine having a lefty like that in pen would be great, and that it's really a question of which is healthiest.

Any Players Weekend jerseys that stood out to you? I think the Twins pullover jerseys looked great in that eighties retro sense.
The rest were garbage.
Eno Sarris
12:39
The ones in the Bay Area were hot trash. Bad neon versions of their normal colors. Love the nickname part though.
