I think in 2026 probably Arizona. Padres have a lot of pitching to find and limited payroll to do it

Thank goodness, the internet's back. I much prefer typing on a REAL computer.

Thinking that Trent Grisham would be great get for Orioles... U in or out on him?

Dan Szymborski

1:04

He'd be interesting, but I'm not sure that he'd be a priority. If the Orioles want to spend money, I'd want a pitcher

1:05

Is there anything even left at Towson Marketplace? Last I drove by I know PetSmart, and Ollies are there and Target

mmddyyyy

1/30th of the way through, what's the most surprising thing ZiPS has spit out so far?

Dan Szymborski

1:05

Well, the first ZiPS batch run, it projected 2000 hitters and named them all Zyhir Hope

1:06

The Crawford projection is kinda weird in that ZiPS thinks he's a very solid player right now, but basically has him plateauing at this level

Oaktown Blues

1:08

Which of the 2000 Zyhirs Hope had the most surprising projection to you?

Dan Szymborski

1:08

Well, the one in which Zyhir Hope projected to 7 point something WAR. That's a lot for Hope

do you have thoughts on the Angel's coaching hires? are they doing something good for once?!

Dan Szymborski

1:09

Kind of a wait and see. I'm most optimistic abotu Keith Johnson

Insert Witty Name Here

Any ideas for a new cats name? I told my wife our next one is going to be Yoshinobu Yamamoto just because it’s so fun to say and I’m mostly looking forward to the Vet’s face when they hear it.

Dan Szymborski

I think Pet names are a personal thing!

On that note, I have the next team ZiPS to finish for publication, so it's time to go!

I'll see you all next time
