Is Ozzie Albies closer to a future star or just average regular
AvatarDan Szymborski

TBD

Do you think the O's leave Machado in the leadoff role all year? What other options do they have?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:15
He makes sense
Chuncey Wiggins

If mound visits are going to be timed, would it make sense for teams to catapult their managers from the dugout to the mound to give them as much time as possible to discuss strategy?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:15
Absolutely.

If Marte + Heyward provide you 40/40 counting stats .. why not wait until the end of the draft to take Trumbo + Burns; who will prob also get you 40/40?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:16
Not necessarily Burns, but I can't disagree too much - I think Heyward is being drafted a litttle high in fantasy and Trumbo low

Happy Pi day Dan. Any celebrations planned or are you not THAT much of a nerd?

It's really efforty

Should Jered Weaver call it a career?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:17
For $20 million, I'd give it a try.

What has a higher probability? Archer being traded this year or your hairline stops going back?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:18
Archer. Believe it or not that's always been my hairline - had the same hairline as a kid, I just have a giant forehead. The balding is the bald spot on the back of my head.

If one wants to see prospects, where is the best place in the US to live? Arizona?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:19
Either Florida or Arizona and Arizona doesn't have the appearances by Florida Man.

What type of MLB analytics are being added to espn?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:19
More of the type you see. It's a very numbery place and you can see Stats & Info type stuff.
12:20
I'm not involved in that part - I write articles that use data more than just have data.

With Rodgers & McMahon in the pipeline, couldn't the Rockies afford (service time) to start Trevor Story on Opening Day?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:20
Yeah, but an extra year also makes him more of a trading asset.
12:21
I still pick up a $5 bill I find in the dryer even if I have twenties in my wallet.

Its seems most people are already looking past Singleton to AJ Reed, do you still have hope Singleton can put it together?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:21
It's fading. Reed is just more interesting.

Thoughts on Boston being a home for a NL team in the next 10-20 years? I think Bostonians would embrace another team, do you think this would work?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:21
No.
New York would get a third team before Boston a second one.

Y.Grandal was a beast (for a catcher) last summer before a shoulder issue. Do you believe in him this season ? 260 avg ? 18 HR, 65 RBI ?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:21
Shoulders are trickyl.
12:23
Back, sorry, spilled my drink on myself and had to put on a new shirt

Do you believe that Kolten Wong is the Cardinals best option at the lead off spot?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:24
Think it's Carpenter

How will you be celebrating Pi Day?

Eating cake because I'm a failure

If Jon Niese were on the Orioles, where would he rank in their rotation?

"Separating who is responsible for what in a front office is more difficult than ever before" that sounds like Dave Stewart might borrow that quote down the road
