Who are you picking in a 3 on 3 basketball game: Tatis, Judge, and Trout, or Mookie, Giancarlo, and Glasnow?

Dan Szymborski

12:51

The first three

Speaking of Moreno, was there ever another shoe to drop on the rumored Joc Pederson trade last year? It still doesn't make sense that the Dodgers were actually going to make that trade just for Rengifo. There had to be another piece, right?

Dan Szymborski

12:53

There wer esupposed to be a couple lesser prospects in th emix too

And there was some luxury tax planning involve.d

Matt

12:54

Adrian Beltre could still do it, I think.

Dan Szymborski

12:54

Oh, that's a better one

Morbo

12:54

Dan. Dan! DAN!!

I think Dan broke his space bar on that last response

Dan Szymborski

12:55

actually, the spacebar keycap came off a little

I bet Judge can clear the boards. Make sure he wears elbow protection though cuz Stanton has a hard head.

12:55

Who is the best ballplayer up there at FanGraphs?

Dan Szymborski

12:55

Don't think we've ever tried

I suspect Eric might run the fastest

12:56

I can probably still throw a crappy curve, but I wasn't fast even when I was in better playing shape

Who are the best non-Bauer SP targets for the Mets?

Dan Szymborski

12:56

Tanaka

Worse sandwich commercial Judge or Bellichek

Dan Szymborski

12:57

BB because I rather eat at Jersey Mike's than Subway!

Tim

12:57

Ask a challenging question, get an unhelpful and dickish answer. My fault. I knew what I was getting into.

Dan Szymborski

12:57

Wait, what Smith are you talking about? Mallex?

12:58

Joe? Caleb? Other Will?

None of the Smith have odd projections as far as I can tell.

CeddyBReady

12:58

I want them to reboot CSI Miami and replace David Caruso with Dan. I think you could deliver all those lines way better. Damnit I lost my sunglasses. YEEEAAAAAHHHHHH!

Kevin.... Kevin Smith

Dan Szymborski

12:59

I haven't even released the O's yet!

Drew Haugen

12:59

How likely is a Arenado-Dodgers union before Christmas?

Dan Szymborski

12:59

It's certainly possible.

But then again, I don't know if the Rockies are actually realistic in their demands.

1:00

It takes two to trade.

Jeff in T.O.

Who has the best ZiPS projection of all time? Mike Trout circa 2018 or something like that?

Dan Szymborski

1:00

All Mike Trouts

Best move the Pads could realistically make this off-season?

Dan Szymborski

1:00

Hmmph realistically. So I can't trade Hosmer for Trout?

Tanaka actually wouldn't be a bad fit. Like the Mets, the Padres could use a #2 inning-eater dude.

Albert

1:00

I'm not sure how much incentive the Dodgers would really have to give up assets to pay Arenado market value when they have Seager's pending free agency. Obviously the Dodgers are willing to trade for stars at the right price, but it seems like an odd fit

Need a goof article coming up with the best jersey sponsor for each MLB team. Maybe Old Bay for the O’s?

CeddyBReady

1:01

There are multiple Kevin Smitheseseses!

Dan Szymborski

1:01

The Kevin Smithi

How's it going?
