If Otani comes over to an AL team will he hit when he pitches with pinch hitters taking over once he is out of the game? Or will he be DH'd for on pitching days?

Really depends on the team.

Bruckner cycle: Jochum vs Wand?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:31
Jochum. A couple of the Wands are just a little too coola t the climaxes. Though the Wand has better sound.
The best Bruckner run is Celibidache though.

I believe The Mets' injury woes can be traced back to elaborate handshakes.

Do teams ever target players from certain geographic areas? I noticed the Phillies have drafted/signed a lot of guys from the Midwest, the Nationals from Illinois/Indiana, etc. Is this out of practice or merely coincidental?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:32
Some do, some don't. The Braves have liked guys from the area.
Depends on the organization and it varies.
Tha twould be an itnresting draft look

Have you gotten a look at Jose Bautista? Do you believe the meticulous care he takes in training and diet will save him? Or is it more genetics and luck that governs the speed of decline?

Are the Giants wasting his good eye talents at the bottom of the lineup?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:34
Who, Crawford? He's been hitting in the middle of the order
Oh, Panik
Thought this was a follow up
Bochy is not very lineup imaginative
2:35
So Gorkys has hit leadoff because reasons

Have you played or considered playing in a high stakes fantasy league? If so, do tell.

I don't do high stakes fantasy.

Now we can ask, who is the new Texas closer???
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:37
Have they officially taken the job away from Dyson? I knew there were rumblings, but perhaps I missed something this morning
Bush would be next in line I imagine. And I woudln't be surprsied for Dyson to get teh closer axe, they've thrown in the towel very quickly on closers in recent years (Tolleson, Feliz)

Oh, I guess that crawford question couldn't be a follow up since it was asked like at 1:57 before I even started.
I mean the panik question.

I know baseball well but am new to fantasy. What beginner's mistakes did I problem make? Are they correctable?

You probably chose all the wrong players and you're doomed forever and the winner in your league gets to write your epitath someday

If Delaware was to compete in the WBC, it would have Paul Goldschmidt, Brett Oberholtzer, Joey Wendle, and maybe a couple retirees like Kevin Mench and Ian Snell. How would they do?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:38
Depth would be an issue
2:39
Remember, *Oberholtzer* is the second player you named.
But better than Luxembourg or something!
