White Sox. Only two ESPN panelist (Padilla and that Szymborski fucktard) even picked them to make the playoffs

How April is April?

April is the Apriliest April since Germinal.

Horrible team construction I know but I inherited this team, what is the worst pitcher you would trade Rizzo for if you already have Chris Davis, Albert Pujols, and Freddie Freeman as 1b options. The best offer I got for any of the other 3 was Jose Quintana.
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:52
Quintana is better in real life than fantasy

Someone dropped Stroman in my league. Would you part with Hendricks, Gio, Nicasio or VV to make the claim?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:53
Hendricks and Nicasio at least - Stroman's got so much upside

With the Gregory Polanco extension does Austin Meadows eventually get traded this season or next ?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:53
It's possible, but there's no reason for the Pirates to plan what they'r egoing to do yet
12:54
This is the part when I sadly remind Pirates fans that Andrew McCutchen is a free agent after 2018.

Too early to get excited about Aaron Sanchez?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:54
Never too early to be excited simply because of his filthy his stuff is.

I read that as why is Markakis being rostered in MLB
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:55
That works too

How worried are you about DeGrom's lat tightness?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:55
Yes, actually
12:56
But unless there's been news change this morning, the team's being careful
You don't want a pitcher altering his delivery to compensate for something.

ROS % of Trevor Story articles with a terrible pun in the title?

Um, guys? Bryce Harper hasn't struck out yet.
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:56
He just hasn't chosen to strike out.

Worst defense in MLB this year? Padres and White Sox both seem like contenders.
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:57
White SOx *have* improved
Mets are a sleeper

The answer is probably "April" - but is Grichuk's start concerning enough that I would be fine dropping him for Mazara? I feel like Mazara over the next few weeks is more certain than Grichuk.
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:58
April.

Can Foltenyweicz be a #2 starter for Braves this year?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:58
Quality wise I dont' think so

Who is April and why is she making guys play better or worse than they're supposed to?
AvatarDan Szymborski

She's super-hot

Just reviewing your chat skills, it feels like you've lost your fastball. April?

George Brett's brother, Ken, could really hit. He often pinch hit for the Pirates.
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:59
Both these points are correct.

Assuming Tyler White's success continues, does that effect the date of AJ Reed's eventual call up?
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:59
Certainly makes it less urgent

What do you make of Shields? Decline or rebound this year?
