C before B way before A

Who hits more HRs this year, Ryan Braun or Franmil Reyes?

Dan Szymborski

12:56

I'm an optimist so let's say Franmil

12:57

And Hedges may hit more home runs than Hosmer who may hit more home runs than an actual hedge.

German Marquez's ceiling is a Top ___ pitcher?

Chef

12:58

I mostly want to see an episode in which Cy Young candidates have to prepare duck confit

Chris

12:58

Would you rather trade for MadBum or sign Keuchel? What would it take to get MadBum?

Dan Szymborski

12:58

Probably sign Keuchel. I'm not sure Giants are in place yet where they *really* want to face the truth

12:59

Zaidi probably does, but no GM or team president is the dictator of their team

I'm going to pretend Hyde was ejected for protesting an 11:00 AM baseball game

Michael Conforto

12:59

What can the Mets get for Dom Smith? Back end starter with some years of control sound fair?

Dan Szymborski

12:59

I think they'd get a sorta prospect. Smith's perceived value around the league is not high

If the Mets could get a cheap Vargas replacement for Smith, he'd have been gone last year

Kimbrel queries

If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, how long would it take a monkey with a rubber butt to suck the seeds out of a dill pickle?

Dan Szymborski

1:00

The latter is not reliant on the former. Peter Piper's participating is positively not pertinent.

who are the top SP trade candidates this season?

Dan Szymborski

1:01

MadBum for sure, Duffy if he ever shows a pulse, I think Dylan Bundy ends up somewhere

robertobeers

What's your first take on the hearthstone standard meta? Arena feels so much more powerful and it's brilliant.

Dan Szymborski

1:01

I enjoy the new standard meta but I am very uneasy about token druid's power level

Matt

1:02

There's a hole in this whole Peter Piper story, Dan. Pickling is a process done after peppers are picked. You can't pick an already pickled pepper. What exactly was Peter picking, and why does the CIA not want us to know the truth?

Dan Szymborski

1:02

You assume picked means off a plant

it could mean he CHOSE a particular variety of a pickled peppers from his grocer's selection and bought enough to constitute an entire peck.

stroman?

Dan Szymborski

1:02

Yeah, Stroman has to be a good candidate too

Rules are rules

1:02

A two batter minimum makes way more sense to me than 3. Your thoughts?

Dan Szymborski

1:02

DOn't forget guys, end of inning also counts as 3

1:03

if it's the last out of the inning, the guy doesn't have to come back for two more batters

unless I REALLY missed something

On that note, it is time for me to depart.

Thank you for joining me, ladies and gentlemen.

OK, mostly gentlemen.

Maybe all.
