I think they were missing the necessary power component, actually. I mean, you can live on contact and okay power all you want, but then you need a killer staff, and theirs was just good.

What does it mean that when I see the name Chapman I think Matt and not Aroldis?? I’m not even an A’s fan
Eno Sarris
12:34
Wait was it supposed to be Aroldis? I went with Matt myself.

Are you surprised by the Yankees season?
Eno Sarris
12:34
I picked them to make the postseason, so mildly!

Feels like Dombrowski lost his fastball, he turned what looked like a wide open window into a now 2y window with a barren farm and a stripped analytic dept. How long is his leash?
Eno Sarris
12:35
The good thing about needing power is that it's the easiest thing to buy right now.

If they made meat substitutes just as cost effective and taste just as similar to real meat, would you stop buying real meat? Asking because I’m about to make a beyond burger for lunch and they’re f’n tasty.

There's a breakfast sausage that I've loved for so long... Morning Star maybe? I should get those again.
Bruce

Do catchers lead the league in neck tattoos per capita?
Eno Sarris
12:36
Maybe Yadier's just scared everyone into thinking he's a HoFer.
Nothing makes me feel older than a neck tatoo, honestly.

My nephew wants to open a sandwich shop. What say you Obi Wan
Eno Sarris
12:37
I would say that they, like the local brewpub, are good ideas depending on the exact situation of the location.
Marty
12:37
Why do you think managers are rarely moved from triple-a to MLB? Many are former players, at least at some level, and you'd have some idea of how they handle in-game situations.
Eno Sarris
12:37
Maybe Triple-A in general is just where people hang out waiting for a chance, players and managers.

Are we going to trust Alex Wood's health for 2018?  If so, top 30?
Eno Sarris
12:38
I would not trust his health, but I don't trust many and would put him just outside the 30.
Rick Roll

As a Cubs fan who just watched Strasburg, there's something I like about Gio+Tanner too ...

Seriously, how many of the big innovations in sabermetrics over the last 20 years were because someone wanted to win in fantasy?
Eno Sarris
12:38
Underrated motivator.
Shohei how you doing
12:38
So just based on pitching talent, who'd you rather have next year, Otani or Luis Castillo?
Eno Sarris
12:38
Otani. Bigger fastball, can you believe it?
Catt Marpenter
12:39
Schoop gonna be this dude? I really get a JJ Hardy vibe from him. I like the value in 2018.
Eno Sarris
12:39
yeah with this ball, this is him.

Jon Lester throwing over to first 2x in a row And getting the pickoff, is 49 pitches in dog years.

When is the next time you can see the Dodgers failing to win the NL West?  5+ years?
Eno Sarris
12:41
The Dbacks weren't terrible, and teams fall apart. I wouldn't project anyone into five years of winning the division.
Dylan
12:42
What is Wilmer Flores?
Eno Sarris
12:42
Right-hand platoon first baseman? Second division third baseman?
Steve O
12:42
Where can the Sox get it though? They're basically locked in at every position except 1B/DH and C and they still have Hanley for one of those spots.
Eno Sarris
12:42
tons of 1B power out there.
Josh
12:43
What breakout players are doomed to disappoint next season? Marwin? C Taylor?
Eno Sarris
12:43
Between those two I'm going with Marwin because he'd played more and established more of an MLB baseline before this year.
Chalupa Batman
12:43
Do you see any chance the Mets deploy Wheeler (even Lugo/Gsell) in a way similar to Devenski? Would think you'd have to really prioritize getting him into clean innings w/ ample warm up time though
Eno Sarris
12:44
Gsellman's sinker seems like it could slide right into that. Wheeler seems fragile when it comes to command and health.

Did the Indians "choke"?  I'd say nah, just bad baseball at the wrong time
Eno Sarris

We

for a reason, but often there isn't one. Things fell as they did. Imagine if they'd had good Salazar and healthy Zimmer. But things happen.
Bruce
12:45
Why isnt there more written about how far back or up batters stand in the box. It would seem to me to be pretty important, but I never read anything about it, other then when Ellsbury hits the catcher
