It also would be a hell of a lot better than the team is getting out of 3B right now. http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=0&...

I work at Inside Edge and we supply a lot of the info for Sony for DD. Could look into it as I am also a fan

Who's your favorite player of all time?

Paul Swydan

Pedro Martinez

Jeff Zimmerman

9:57

Bob Gibson. I just like him more and more as I get older

Jeff - if you stop your kids form fighting, then how will you ever know which one is the strongest, and thus most deserving of inheriting all that you eventually leave behind?

Paul Swydan

This made me laugh.

Jeff Zimmerman

The girl is the strongest. That part of the problem. She only 2 years old and kicks the boys ass

"I would read FanFeelings." - Harold Reynolds, probably.

Hey Harold Reynolds once complimented me on my necktie, so probably.

Forget the roids: Bonds prime or Ruth prime?

Jeff Zimmerman

10:01

Tough one. I'd lean Ruth. He may have had the most influence on the home run centric game we have today.

Paul Swydan

10:02

Well, I didn't see Ruth's prime, but Bonds. The game in Ruth's era a) didn't have black people, b) had way fewer teams and c) lacked quality competition a lot of the time. To me, there's no way the product of baseball can compare to what it is like today / in Bonds' era.

But it is a tough call, which is why I'm pulling for ancillary reasons.

Jeff Zimmerman

10:02

Look at Paul with the long thought out answer.

Paul Swydan

10:03

On that note, I think we're going to have to call it a night. Thanks as always for hanging out. Back at it next week!

Jeff Zimmerman

Bye
