In other words, do they think they can find that production cheaper from somewhere else.
1:09
Buy a non closer and elevate Edwards, get a back end pitcher like Arrieta was before he was Arrieta, that sort of thing.

Does signing Darvish give a team a leg up on winning the scrum for Otani?
Eno Sarris
1:09
I don't think so. These guys are individuals. Remember what Darvish said when Tanaka signed his deal?

We heard a lot of talk about high spin rates this postseason. Who’s the quintessential low spin rate pitcher? Keuchel? Hendricks?
Eno Sarris
1:11
Manaea, Perdomo, Carlos Martinez. Quintana. Gibson, Wood, keuchel. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/statcast_search?hfPT=FT%7C&hfAB=&hfBBT=...

Any worries about Greg Bird in 2018?  His ankle injury seemed like a fluke, and his bat is tempting
Eno Sarris
1:14
I'm in on Bird next year. Again.

Gregerson, Liriano, Beltran, Maybin and Centeno are Astros FAs. I’m not sure how that doesn’t get more hype for a repeat than the Dodgers losing a few more prominent pieces?
Eno Sarris
1:14
I think they both going to be good next year.

Otani will be a bust.

Not bad, not bad.

It's incredibly pretentious to call blog posts "pieces"
Eno Sarris
1:17
Obviously I disagree. This is my work. Some of my pieces take weeks, months to write. Literally, since I've begun collecting quotes for ideas through the whole season. I pay people to do research for them, so there are teams putting these pieces together. Just because they go up on a website does not devalue them. They more permanent than a print magazine, would you say the same of a magazine piece?

wow Upton just re-signed with Angels
Eno Sarris
1:17
I thought this might happen. I wonder if they have money to go after a starting pitcher too.
1:18
Hey I'm near silverlake and this voice is calming and soothing, like the opposite of Larry David.

Related to the George Springer fantasy question, would now be a good time to target Yu Darvish in an auction league?
Eno Sarris
1:19
I'd rather be sure he signed with an NL team first.

Have we come to the point where the dodger acknowledge that they will not get a ring with Clayton Kershaw?  He is a great, if not the best regular season pitcher, however he can't put a team on his back and win the world series like MadBum can.
Eno Sarris
1:21
I think this is taking it too far, but it does interest me that he's pitched 122 postseason innings to a 4.35 ERA and seemingly has a homer issue in the postseason. He's a great pitcher, and I'm not saying he's a choker. They can win with him. They just need to get him a really good number two. And I wonder if he relies on the fastball too much in the postseason, which is full of fastball hitters and pitchers that go to their junk more often.

remarkably, a bit of research just showed me that Albert Pujols did not just have the worst 100+ RBI season of all time (by WAR). any guess who did?
Eno Sarris
1:21
Can't be Matt Kemp, or could it be? No, wait, someone like Tony Batista or Joe Carter?

Hey, remember when the Rangers, Expos, and Blue Jays finished a three team, three player swap with three first basemen (David Segui, Lee Stevens, and Brad Fullmer)?

I wonder how often there has been a three team trade with exactly three Major League players (possibly playing the same position) in history...?
Eno Sarris
1:23
The ultimate challenge trade. Doubt it's happened a lot.

Which co-worker is most likely to have a beer with you?
Eno Sarris

Jeff Zimmerman, homeboy extraordinaire.

1:24
Rumors of a Shark and Melacon for Heyward trade. Why would the Cubs do that?  How about Heyward for Shark plus $35Mill??
Eno Sarris
1:24
Dunno why the Giants would want to do that either...

I Love LA is STILL the best stadium-specific song. Eat out, Sweet Caroline!

Certainly beats the pants off of listening to Journey 80 times a year.

I think Sean Manaea looks like George Clooney

I tend to take "dealing" to mean "not giving up hard contact"
Eno Sarris
1:25
Yeah we should throw Exit Velo on that list.
Ray Liotta as Shoeless Joe

I was looking at JAWS scores for second baseman and Chase Utley is a Hall of Famer by those standards. Obviously he was really good during his peak stretch, but does he *feel* like a Hall of Famer? Put me in my place, Eno.
Eno Sarris
1:26
Best player on a team that won a ton of games and a championship. Power, speed, plate discipline.
