I'm internet famous by association

OPS is almost woba, and it is accepted by most fans. tbh I would rather have a telecast show OPS than Statcast. OPS+ would be nice though...

Great advice, Sheryl! 100% agree. Good luck, Cake is.

Nick Mar - Cake is Good

9:07

She is my sister actually

Sheryl Ring

9:07

Thank you Klubot. And Cake (and anyone else)...feel free to DM me on Twitter if you want to talk more.

Roger Cormier

9:07

That's wild

9:08

If anybody wants advice on how not to become a lawyer, hit me up

Sheryl Ring

9:08

My wife, who is much smarter than me, is not a lawyer. I often say that is because she is too smart to be a lawyer.

Brandon M

9:09

Any advice for pharmacy school, Sheryl?

Nick Mar - Cake is Good

9:09

I mean I'm not sure but I just got a text that said "Fangraphs chat is great today" and I told her who I was and....

Rubber Sand(apparently OPS guy)

9:09

I don't believe it Cake. Both of you say the exact same thing at the exact same time so Roger and Sheryl can see.

Sheryl Ring

9:09

Talk to a pharmacist. I believe that is good advice.

Roger Cormier

9:09

don't get high on your own supply

9:09

Martinez, Severino, or Gray? (not fantasy)

Randy

9:10

This is cool:

Baseball nerds: The Dodger Stadium RF scoreboard has a new layout for 2018, and now features OPS+, WAR, pitch type,… twitter.com/i/web/status/9…

Sheryl Ring

9:10

Which Gray? Assuming Jonathan, I'll take Sevy. Assuming Sonny, I'll still take Sevy.

@sheryl my dad worked at the law firm that acts as outside counsel for MiLB, if that's the sort of thing you'd be interested to hear more about via DM

Sheryl Ring

9:10

I would! I'm on twitter @Ring_Sheryl.

Cake's Sister

It's true

Not Finnigan

9:10

Can I get tips for journalism school?

Conner from AZ

9:11

This is a little off topic, but Miles Mikolas is gonna be a stud right? I watched a couple of hist starts this spring and was totally sold on his stuff. He looks incredibly nasty. I'm all-in

Roger Cormier

9:11

Some people say it's a complete waste of time

Sheryl Ring

9:11

I like Mikolas. I think he could be Colby Lewis 2.0, which is pretty solid.

alpha309

9:11

Is this a career advice site now?

Roger Cormier

9:11

I'm not sold on him. But we'll see.

Joe

9:11

No one ever asks me about my Underwater Basketweaving degree

Rubber Sand

9:11

Thank you Randy. And you guys are destroying my resolve to get more education. :)

Sheryl Ring

9:11

Only until we finish our burgers.

Nick Mar - Cake is Good

9:12

It's very sad that Homer Bailey is starting an opening day against Mad Max

dodger fan

9:13

i miss morrow

Randy

9:13

I'm so glad that I'm finished with grad school forever. What an awful experience.

Bob

9:13

Ty Blach is beating Clayton Kershaw, so maybe not so sad.

Billy Beane

9:13

Roger, what do you think of Ulysses? I personally prefer Faulkner if I want stream of consciousness. I'll take my answer off-air.

Hey Sheryl, can I get some advice on how to best prepare a roux? Also, what temperature should I set my thermostat to in my house in winter?

Roger Cormier

9:13

Yeah Ulysses gets old real quick

Sheryl Ring

9:13

Re: roux. Using butter that isn't spoiled. Re: thermostat. 68 degrees.

Roger Cormier

9:14

Gimme sound and gimme fury

Not Finnigan

9:14

Should I reheat my pizza from earlier today or eat it cold?

Roger Cormier

9:14

Reheat. You deserve it.

Sheryl Ring

9:15

Wait...I thought we were eating burgers?
