dedicated to the Twins and Rockies. Team entropy may have lost out, but it's kinda cool to have these two teams in the postseason
12:01
yello
John Edwards
12:02
Twins are in the postseason. What does this mean moving forward? Should we expect them to be in "Win Now" mode for the next few seasons?
Eno Sarris
12:03
I bet they run it like Cleveland with Derek Falvey in there. hope to have the young guys do it with a slow ramp up of free agent signings. Doubt they trade anything under control for a win now piece.

SP Castillo at $2 or Francisco Mejia at $4 as my last keeper?
Eno Sarris
12:03
Castillo. Mejia could be very good and still not be great for fantasy.

Do you like Aaron Hicks as a 20/20 candidate in 2018?
Eno Sarris
12:03
Sure, with a .240 batting average.
Ted
12:03
You starting Nova or Manaea tonight?
Eno Sarris
12:04
Not if I was at all nervous about ERA and WHIP. I wrote that the A's should shut Manaea down three weeks ago.

If you were managing the Yankees, would you start Severino or go with the bullpen game?
Eno Sarris
12:04
They have such a great pen. But the inside baseball line is: whatever it takes to win. So that means Severino AND the bullpen.
Bruce
12:05
Josh Hader and Domingo Santana for Carlos Gomez. Wow, that was a bad trade for the 'stros.
Eno Sarris
12:05
And I thought Gomez was built on athleticism that was fading at the time of the deal.
James
12:05
Enjoyed the Warthen slider piece. To bounce off of that a bit what the heck do they do with the rotation next year if they plan to contend?! Am I crazy or wouldn't it behoove them to get a Lance Lynn-type who can (seemingly) guarantee them some good, quality innings?
Eno Sarris
12:06
They probably *should* buy a pitcher to keep guys like Gsellman and Lugo in the 5th/6th starter spot, but the talk is of spending on the pen.

I've pretty much feel ennui about beer at the moment except milk stouts. Have any off the beaten path suggestions?
Eno Sarris
12:06
How about a dry stout? A little bit lighter, a little bit more bitter, a little change.

How fair would it be to say that if the Rockies beat AZ, few will take notice, but if the Twins beat the Yankees, the internet will be buried for days in 'fix the wild card' articles?
Eno Sarris
12:08
I was going to say 'yeah but the Yankees are that much better than the Twins' but then I looked and six games separate both pairs. i'm changing my mind a bit: what if upsets are good?
Acuna Matata
12:08
Who has better range Matt Kemp or Mike Engelberg?
Eno Sarris
12:08
Bobby Cox.

If Budweiser secretly recanned a Treehouse IPA and called it Bud NEIPA, and sold it in the same quantities as Bud light, what rating on untapped would it get?
Eno Sarris
12:09
3.5. "Meh, it's okay but the NEIPA is played out."
Ol Sea Cap'n

Let' s talk dynasty - is max Kepler, aaron altherr and delino Deshields going to be 'things'? I feel breakouts coming... cray cray or yea yea?
Eno Sarris
12:11
I dunno... exit velo doesn't favor Kepler, I don't see the power coming for Delino so it would have to be all D and run, and Altherr is 26 and doesn't seem inclined to run.
Bob Villar
12:11
Ozzie Albies!
Eno Sarris
12:12
I cannot contain my enthusiasm. Dude is single handedly keeping me from quitting dynasty leagues.
Dude could walk 10%, strike out 14%, ISO .175, and steal 30 bases next year.
Ol Sea Cap'n
12:13
What happened to Sean Manaea? He was supposed to be the choosen one and ended up with no hand, no leg and burning from lava thanks to Obi Wan. No, serious - wtf?
Eno Sarris
12:13
spin down, velo down, I think he's hurting.
ATCQ
12:13
A few years ago we all sneered at RAJ and the Phillies FO for not blowing it up.  Then it was the Reds, then the Tigers, now the Royals, Jays, and O's.  How much are these teams hurting themselves by running against the wind trying to contend when the rosters just don't have the talent?
Eno Sarris
12:14
The Royals are one thing. They don't even have anything in the minors, so this was one last go at it before they try to restock the minors and go again. Jays just ran up quickly on the end of a window. The O's... they just keep doing this, keep trying to field decent teams, and they surprise in any given year because they're really good at putting a pen together.
D.B. Sweeney as Shoeless Joe

Dave said Judge's BASELINE is a top 3 hitter going forward. Seems a little aggressive considering we don't know if the prolonged slumps are a result of pitchers adjusting or will be habitual in the future. What do you think?
Eno Sarris
12:15
I'm a little biased against strikeouts so I'd rather put him in the top five or something. A guy with that many whiffs seems like he has an exploitable hole or two.
JDX
12:16
Votto is crazy. His RE24 is 17.5% higher than the next closest player, Paul Goldschmidt.    His REWins are 14.1% higher than the next closest player, Mike Trout.
Eno Sarris
12:16
Yeah I mean if we want to talk perfect hitter, walking 20% of the time and striking out 12% of the time with power is more likely to get my love.
Troutmaggedon

More impressive season: Gary Sanchise 2016 or 2017?
