I *think* Andrew has horizontal angle in there, but pull > push.

Does Willie Calhoun turn your crank? Strange body but seems like a decent hitter. Do you think he can be the Ranger DH as early as next year?
Eno Sarris
1:38
I wonder if another team would take Odor. Below replacement with 30 homers...
I do think a strong spring could get Calhoun on a roster to start the year.

What do you do this offseason if you are the Giants?  A teardown doesn't seem to be in the cards, just sign a few guys and pray?  I just don't see how they get good....

Got a piece about this coming Friday on The Athletic, on how bad they actually are. There are some indications they aren't as bad as we think. Add some offense, Cueto returns to some form and gives them a real number two... 85 win team? Not impossible.

Another Ranger question. With what Claudio has shown over the last several weeks do you think he has a chance to enter next season as the closer? Or do you think Kela or Bush takes a run at the job?
Eno Sarris

I can't imagine that a guy that throws at Claudio's velocity will remain a closer for long. He also has an arm slot that should lead to big platoon splits.

Saw this dude open for Mike Eagle in Brooklyn a few years back
Halo me

Never would have thought that Parker would come out of nowhere to be the Angels closer. Do you think he keeps the job next year or does crazy Scioscia go back to Bedrosian?
Eno Sarris
1:41
he told me he's throwing Tyler Clippard's change! I think he has a chance to stick.

Clayton Richard pitches vs COL today, not Garret Richards.
Eno Sarris
1:41
that's less exciting.

How did you score Alvarez vs. Golovkin?
Eno Sarris
1:42
Triple G by decision.

Why did Odorizzi get terrible?
Eno Sarris
1:42
Never found a breaking ball that's good.

I don't know if you saw Derrick Goold's post on cutters, but he opines that it's a high - risk, high - reward pitch. Should the league as a whole increase, decrease or stay the same with regards to cutter usage?
Eno Sarris
1:44
I've written extensively on this, and it's hard to sum up except to say: there are at least three types of cutter. One, the cut fastball where you just change the seams a bit, I don't think it's very risky. The other two are risky for velocity because you start to get around the ball and lose some velo because you're not behind the ball the same way.

Going to Burlington, VT this weekend. What's my beer strategy? any breweries to see besides Magic Hat?
Eno Sarris

that spooky youtube clip is the artist Will Schaff who does Okkervil's album art explaining he isn't Will Shaff
Hey man

Regarding the one game playoff: How is this worse than the old days of winning 100 games, but losing the division by one game and not making the playoffs at all? Or a 100 win division winner losing to an 90 game division winner?
Eno Sarris
1:46
It's not! But we can always get better.

Duchess de Borgogne a great sour? Trying to expand from lambics.
Eno Sarris
1:46
Very good opening salvo.
LetsWin2
1:47
Do you think roster expansion should take place in April iso Sept? (thinking about pennant races vs AAA talent and extended bullpens)
Eno Sarris
1:47
one reason it happens late is that the minor league season is over!
Kirk
1:47
Do you still believe Cody Reed and Amir Garrett can make it as starters or are they both relievers?
Eno Sarris
1:47
I'm out, mostly.
1:48
