So does Mookie Blaylock, I imagine

Regarding baseball players wrestling: We talking WWE, or greco-roman?
AvatarDan Szymborski

WWE I'm sure

Chris Davis? he just done?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:46
I'm quite worried
God, I'm answering questions at 2:09 and I'm still skipping two-thirds.
Can't you guys think slower or something?
Pretend you're dressed up like Colonel Sanders and it's an intolerable hot day and you're just drinking mint juleps.

Dan, I know how you feel.  I suddenly lost a cat a few years ago after she had been healthy for the longest time.

It wasn't as bad when my tortie died suddenly in my hallway and I found her in the middle of the night, literally two hours after she was merrily chasing a moth
BUt it was pretty bad
I feel the worst for Galileo.  He's 19 and Pandora was his buddy for all 17 years of her life.
2:48
At times he expects to see her, meal times and when he's hanging out in my bed, he's still occasionally looking around and yowling

Sorry about your loss Dan. Cats are the absolute best. RIP Pandora. Post a pic?

Sonny Gray, Jon Gray, or Fulmer?  heard fulmer early struggles were due to the cold, but hes not a big K guy anyway. 12 team h2h 5x5.
AvatarDan Szymborski

Fulmer, I think.  I like Gray the best, but you don't see many park-neutral leagues!

Has the Cub's bullpen finally come around or was their sweep of the Brewers more due to Milwaukee having an inflated record from playing bad teams?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:50
I think they'r ecoming around.

Rate the Reds rebuild on a scale of 1-10.

5, they've done some good things but some bad things.

Can you think of any reasons Senzel is still in AAA?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:51
There's just not a lot of urgency.
He had two months of AA and a month of AAA ball.  The Reds don't have the pitching yet to shift gears into competitive mode, so unless Senzel's crushing it to the degree he doesn't have much to learn, there's not an incentive to be quick

Besides January, June, and, I guess, May, which month can be a girl's name?

July

If your in my shoes at the deadline, are you making a move or holding your prospect capital? If so, Any obvious guys you would target?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:52
I think the Jays are a team that can go either way
What I wouldn't do is stand pat though
Bort
2:53
What's more fun about Tayron Guerrero - the insane K% or the leg kick at the end of his pitches?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:54
I like when his kick that looks like he's pissed at all the drinks on a coffee table and is trying to kick t hem all off
Jason

Is 2018 finally it, for Chris Davis as a full-time player?  Or can he do enough in the remaining games to put his 2018 WAR above zero?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:54
His exit velocity is garbage
I have zero optimism

Donte Bichette going to steal bases in big leagues as he is in AA?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:55
I assume you mean Bo?
Dante Jr. is slower and is not likely to get anything more than briefest emergency cup of coffee
2:56
Generally speaking, teams steal less with guys like that as they move up the ladder
Bryce

Dodgers, toast or a bounce back coming soon?
