A LOT

12:52

I can never answer more than like 15% of the Qs

Kurupt FM

12:52

Likelihood of playoff expansion in the next 5-10 years? Personally I feel as if it'd solve a lot of problems in the free agent market and make for more entertaining regular season.

Dan Szymborski

12:52

Probably fairly low. The markets available, unless they're going to intrude on owners current markets, aren't that exciting and probably more useful as extortion for stadiums.

12:53

Though I don't want expansion for the reason that we'll probably end up with eight four-team divisions

Jay

12:53

RsBI or RBIs? Breaking the wrists or barrel past home plate? Is a hot dog a sandwich?

Dan Szymborski

12:54

RBIs, it's a plural of an abbreviation. Judgment, no.

Takao

12:54

Saw your thread about video games on twitter... favorite games of the past five years?

Dan Szymborski

12:54

Man, I was going to say Crusader Kings II, but that's a seven-year-old game now

Hearthstone has to be up there considering how much I play it. Stellaris, Cities Skylines

12:55

Bioshock Infinite

Witcher 3

Nate

12:55

What stations do you appear on? I'm surprised because most sports radio shows wouldn't appear to adhere to Fangraph's principles.

Dan Szymborski

12:56

All over, though I tend to do St. Louis area radio the most, I think

I do 105.7 in Baltimore frequently

I'm on Orange County AM 830 with Rodger Lodge fairly regularly

12:57

And on Canada Laughs/Canada Talks on SiriusXM with Todd Shapiro

Matt

12:57

Dan, you should get Joe Rogan to let you on his podcast.

Dan Szymborski

12:57

I think I need to move up a tier

Nate

12:57

Is your chat the most popular among all the Fangraphs peeps?

Dan Szymborski

12:57

I don't know. Shame on you guys if it is, because I'm terrible.

David

12:58

How do the Mariners solve the roster crunch with Vogelbach, Bruce, and Encarnacion?

Dan Szymborski

12:58

Pretending Vogelbach doesn't exist and hoping it just works out

Joe

12:58

The Indians are 6-3 with a sub AAA lineup. What do you make of this team?

Dan Szymborski

12:58

The AL Central is bad.

Borksadork

12:58

Why is it that you can only answer 15% of questions? Are they that bad or do you lack the capacity?

Dan Szymborski

12:58

If I try to answer a higher percentage, it'll get to 1 PM and I'll only be up to like 12:20

Diamond Cutter

12:58

Perpetually World of Warcraft is the right answer

Dan Szymborski

12:59

That's not a new game!

kevinthecomic

12:59

Not sure if you caught it, but ESPN mentioned on Sunday Night Baseball that Desmond's GB% since he joined the Rockies has been 62%. Woof!

Nate

1:01

Does Eno do a chat anywhere now?

Dan Szymborski

1:01

He's done a few for the athletic hasn't he?

Me Grow Ley

1:01

does a HR count towards BABIP?

Dan Szymborski

1:01

What's your stance on those who root for a NL and an AL team?

Dan Szymborski

1:01

Root for who you want!

Big Joe Mufferaw

1:01

Why is Angel Hernandez still a MLB umpire?

Dan Szymborski

1:01

Inertia

LFC Mike

1:02

Current baseball player you think would make a great wrestler?..Chris Davis is not the answer because he can't hit anything.
