I truly don't know. He's batted seventh most frequently this year

what the heck

3:17

like, I get that the Guardians have a lot of average or better hitters, but do we really need to have Josh Naylor above him?

Ben Affleck

Ben Affleck?

All Manoah needed to get back on track was to go head to head with Gerrit Cole in Yankee Stadium. He just like us fr.

Ben Clemens

3:18

He really has pitched well there

I am in my 12th day of recuperation from hip replacement surgery and just took my first steps without a walker!!!!!!! Almost as good as a Ben Clemens chat.

Ben Clemens

3:18

Hey congratulations!

Both of my parents have had hip replacements and raved about them, so I think you are in for some good days to come

Starburst Jelly Beans are the GOAT. Change my mind.

Ben Clemens

3:19

Why would you want me to change your mind about this?

I mostly agree with you, they're great

H2h categories with AVG, OPS, and QS. should i trade max fried for nico h. and Chris sale? I have middle infield of Neto, r. Castro, and k. Marte. I have musgrove, Greene, m. miller, c. Morton, d. May, m. gore, H. Brown, and tony disco.

Ben Clemens

3:19

I wouldn't, but I really don't believe in Sale

Volpe - exciting so far, no? Super entertaining base running, adequate D, and the plate appearances are getting better. A 100 wrc+ paired with his legs and D has to be a resounding success, even if fans might be underwhelmed, no?

Ben Clemens

3:19

Yeah he's fun. The baserunning in particular has been a blast

chilly

i was really high on vaughn coming into the year and he just hasnt performed. was i expecting to much and this is who he is or do u think he can still breakout?

Ben Clemens

3:20

I'm not sure whether we're talking Vaughn Grissom or Andrew Vaughn, but eitehr way I'd say hold off on any sweeping conclusions, it's not even May yet

I mostly brought up the jelly beans because I'm eating some from Welch's that, while tasty, constantly remind me that they're not Starburst.

B'ryce Szymbobski

Skittle ARE BETTER!

I think the only person that has been pro-A's move is Chris Russo, which kinda speaks volumes. Do you think the fans can somehow force their way to ownership reconsidering?

Ben Clemens

3:20

No, haha

3:21

I think that the team failing to get a deal done in Vegas could

But nothing about the way the A's have conducted themselves in the past few years suggests to me that they're interested in remaining in Oakland, or particularly care what Oakland fans have to say about it

3:22

Alright, thanks for chatting with me today, I'm starving so I'm gonna go get some lunch. I'll talk to you next week, same time same place, so have a great one until then.

And oriole won by a mile, more votes than blue jay and cardinal combined, in case you're curious
