Dave, speaking of the hottest days of summer:
How do you get a bunch of Canadians out of the pool on the hottest day of summer?
....
You yell, "everybody out of the pool!"

Dan Szymborski

I've made tha tjoke!

It's amazing just how much the Padres missed a 20 year-old rookie. Tatis is special.

As a practicing astrophysicist, I hereby award you three pinocchios to your, "the Sun could go out" comment. Which is significant, since that brings up your running total of false comments in the history of this Chat to [checks notes] we need new math.

Dan Szymborski

12:55

I said the sun COULDN'T just go out

didn't I?

It would need a vacuum metastability event or something, no?

In real life, Von Hayes would never stand for you answering Kyle Hendricks #1 fan before him.

Dan, what are your thoughts on cutting bagels St. Louis style?

Dan Szymborski

12:57

OH god, do I want to know what that is?

JFC

I did not

The pieces of bread have to overlap at least

So, if neil armstrong had a sandwich on his way to the moon, and momentarily let go of said sandwich, allowing to to float in space...it would for that moment not be a sandwich?

Dan Szymborski

12:59

I'll have to consider that

Slam and legs

What's the deal with Mikolas? Most underlying numbers look identical to last year (so/9, w/9, babip, etc.), but allowing tons of HRs. Is this just a luck (bad luck, specifically) based issue?

Dan Szymborski

12:59

I think he'll be OK, but just not as good as last year

Dave

12:59

Please tell Khaki Segura I want to learn two astrophysics facts today.

Dan Szymborski

1:01

helium can't be solid, IIRC

TRANE

Do you think MLB is considering expanding Division Series' to 7 games?

I respect anyone's choice to become an Astrophysicist, but why would anyone want to study the movement of the Jetsons' dog?

Which pitching prospect from the Orioles do you like the best? Easy answer is Hall or Rodriguez, but there is something about Lowther I really like.

Dan Szymborski

1:02

Hall's my favorite

1:03

But I might like Rodriguez even more simply because he probably has a relatively high floor

Though you could say that about Lowther

1:04

I think the problem with Lowther is that he's older than the other two

Matt

1:04

I think the biggest hole in the Earth Sandwich Theory is that India and North American are on the same flat plane.

Matt Klentak

1:04

helium can be a solid but its very rare

Dan Szymborski

1:04

Oh, it can?

I thought it couldn't be cold enough

Would you rather

1:04

less games (150ish) or expansion to 32 teams?

Dan Szymborski

1:04

banned for "less"

Matt Klentak

1:04

sandwiches dont exist in space, not enough gravity to keep bread together without use of hands or a toothpick

Nick

1:04

how the hell did this thing make it to the moon

Dan Szymborski

1:04

The moon landing is fake. This is the moon and the moon is earth. We've been there the whole time.
