I wouldn't. Everyone's doing lots of meetings

At what point do Machado/Harper start angling for a 3/120ish deal and pray the next CBA helps them out for a second contract? Would any teams actually offer that?

Dan Szymborski

12:26

I don't think they need to in the end

How are the Rockies thinking of using Cargo if resigned?

Dan Szymborski

12:26

Way too often.

Would Dansby Swanson be enough to land Realmuto? I want the Braves to pull that off after signing Machado. Could be a couple of nice compliments to Markakis led lineup!

Dan Szymborski

12:26

Meh

Minnie Minoso

12:26

I noticed you tend to give out projections one year beyond a player retiring. Will you be doing the same for players who have signed overseas, like Jabari Blash?

Dan Szymborski

12:26

I typically do.

If you were to put chili between two slices of bread, does it become a chili sandwich, or does the bread make it no longer chili, and thus a new entity entirely?

Dan Szymborski

12:27

As long as it doesn't have beans, it's a chili sandwich. If it does, it's a bean-and-meat-stew sandwich.

Did you know ahead of time that Omaha Steaks is low-quality crap now? This burger is terrible. You owe me. You have to eat a mediocre burger.

Dan Szymborski

12:27

When did I talk about Omaha steaks?

I get steaks from a local butcher!

Which one of the Wild Hogs are you? Dudley? A rotten Del Fuego?

Dan Szymborski

12:28

Was there an overweight sarcastic del feugo?

fuego

12:29

That was the most generic movie. I saw that flying over to London in 2007 for my sister's first wedding and I immediately forgot most of it the moment it was over.

12:29

How much more effort would it take to create a zips for like the KBO or the Japanese league and then maybe how it would translate to the MLB? Do you think this would have any value?

Dan Szymborski

12:29

I have translations for MLB projections, but I've never really thought about actually projecting *for* NPB or KBO

Purple Mays Haze

12:29

If Vlad was exactly 4 years older (at all levels), what would his ZIPS projection have been?

Dan Szymborski

12:29

Oooh, that's a fun one.

Minnie Minoso

12:30

Wilmer Flores fell through the cracks of Arizona and NYM ZiPs. Any chance I can get a projection for him?

Dan Szymborski

12:30

I tweeted him at some point!

If i Just told you, then the people who endure my twitter feed will feel like their struggles were pointless

12:31

Four year older Vlad

Padonia station is no more. RIP

Dan Szymborski

12:32

After it became Padonia Ale House, didn't htey close it and reopen it?

12:32

Also, what the hell was with Harper's tweet last night? "Loading..."

Dan Szymborski

12:33

He was playing some original PlayStation games.

Case and Keg

12:33

Actually, they sell beer at the Giant in Shrewsbury now...

Dan Szymborski

12:33

Whoa, PA allows that now?

It used to be you could only buy a gigantic amount of beer. No grocery store. And liquor in a completely separate state-run store
