Tyrone Perry?
Seth Beer?

Aaron Boone is reverting to his 2018 form all over again. Paxton probably should've already been out, right?
Craig Edwards
9:11
He gambled. It's hard to say given potentially four games in four days. They just barely got out of it here. He certainly would have deserved the criticism if something had happened.

Great point on CC, Eric. If one says CC is not athletic because he's big, one would have to say the same thing about Shaq.
Eric A Longenhagen
9:11
older Shaq, yeah. Young Shaq was bouncy.
Dylan

Young Shaq was all muscle

The Orlando-era highlights are incredible

And there is the de-juiced ball robbing a HR
Craig Edwards
9:16
So in the regular season, that ball goes 390 feets. We can take off 9 feet for the temperature, so 383. There's still 10 feet there since the ball went 373. With the wind blowing left to right, I'm not sure the regular season ball goes out. It's close though.

So, how long does Torres stay at second base? What's the precedent for 2B moving down the defensive spectrum, other than 1B?
Craig Edwards
9:17
There's Mookie Betts.
9:19
Nine outs from the Yankees bullpen with a three-run lead should be a good recipe for New York.

What are the odds Mookie gets traded in the off-season?
Craig Edwards
9:19
Not high.

Yankees WE up to 89%

Why do I like Drew Waters' bat so much more than Pache's and therefore so much more overall as a prospect?
Craig Edwards
9:20
Still one in five for the series, but they've got a shot.

Why do I like vanilla ice cream more than chocolate?

statcast says the chirinos ball had 61% hit probability, so it wasn't necessarily a robbery
Craig Edwards
9:21
though a lot of those go to center field where the walls are deeper so you can't always look at hit probability.
Jeff
9:21
How about Lindor?
Craig Edwards
9:21
I just don't see it.
Jeff
9:21
Syndergaard?
Craig Edwards
9:21
I could see it, just because we don't know what the Mets are going to do.

Where does one get real time Statcast data?
Craig Edwards

there's a gamefeed on baseball savant
Trade
9:22
biggest name traded this offseason?
Eric A Longenhagen
9:22
robbie ray
Robbie Ray
9:25
best haul for Ray possible?
Eric A Longenhagen
9:26
something centered around clint frazier or maybe a package from MIN around Jeffers+?
or someone like that

Hey Eric, what are your thoughts on Matt Beaty this season? Do you see improvement? Regression? Doing a profile and I need a second opinion.
Eric A Longenhagen
9:28
I think he's a 45 FV type, corner platoon guy. He and Edwin Rios are redundant. One of them should be dealt.
I'd rather have Beatty, better ABquality

Frazier seems like an overpay for Ray.
Craig Edwards
9:30
Come on.

Agree on the quick hook for Kahnle?
