They avoid trading guys when they should, they're going to be more resistant when they probably shouldn't

12:40 What is the biggest impact move the Mets could still plausibly make this offseason? - I think you meant to say "BARTOLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"

Jim Bob Cooter

12:49

why does ZiPS like Poche so much more than Andrew Vasquez? similar minor league numbers

Dan Szymborski

12:49

I'd have to lok at the exact translations

Brad

12:50

Kluber is a trade deadline candidate, no?

Dan Szymborski

12:50

Not really. I think he was simply an aspirational trade, one in which the Indians would be WILLING to trade him for the right price

Abe

12:50

As a Cubs fan, I'm not worried about the team not signing Harper and I do understand the starters could age very quickly. What I'm most worried about is the bullpen. Why aren't they making it better?

Dan Szymborski

12:51

I don't think it's *bad*, but it's harder to make an impact with a reliever

Adam

12:51

Is that daily projection work available anywhere?

Dan Szymborski

12:51

Work in progress

12:52

Why isn't ZIPS all that thrilled about Duggar's defence? Thought at the very least he could be a defence-first starter.

Dan Szymborski

12:52

The ZIPS's Total Zone thing it uses for the minors regularly has him unimpressively ranked

Cat update please?

12:52

Cassie came by with her hedgehog but lost interest when she heard the mailman upstairs

12:53

I heard Mercutio wailing in the kitchen for food, which he doesn't get because he's the fattest and it's not close to dinner

Or, he was before the chat

Steve

12:53

I said that the Mets could PLAUSIBLY make. Wilpons won’t spend on Harper! think they could swing a deal for kluber or sign keuchel?

Dan Szymborski

12:53

I think Harper is more plausible at this point than a trade for Kluber

Signing Keuchel would be fine though

Brad

12:53

2019- Can Jeff McNeil hit over 350? Can peter Alonso hit over 40 bombs? Just say yes

Dan Szymborski

12:54

No, probably not but plausible

LFC Mike

12:54

Why was your mailman upstairs? Taking hostages to protest Escobar signing?

Dan Szymborski

12:54

knocking on the door and leaving a pcakge

Guest

12:54

Bumgarner could get traded at deadline right

Dan Szymborski

12:54

OH yeah, he could be

RichD

12:54

If Jason Heyward was on the open market this offseason, what do you think his value would be?

Dan Szymborski

12:55

Lemme run zips for that

RE: fantasy league finder, try rotoworld forums, they specifically have this page and it gets a lot of traffic

Dan Szymborski

Dan Szymborski

if the white sox are in on machado why aren't the orioles

Dan Szymborski

12:57

White Sox are a lot closer than the O's

The O's don't have a quickie lets-shuffle-some-shit-around-and-party rebuild

12:58

The White Sox rebuild was like a plane crashed into your house

the O's rebuild is like 1946 Ukraine

Seeing all these people on Twitter get their BP before me is very maddening

Dan Szymborski

12:59

Hooray for backchannel media privilege!
