But teams aren't excited about guys with EE's profile

he may be a bit underrated

What should Braves fans expect from Dallas Keuchel for 2019? His profile of track record vs. stuff and age is harder for me to peg than I thought it would be other than I doubt he will magically turn back into a Cy Young caliber guy.

Dan Szymborski

12:38

I think he's a solid #2/3 who will eat innings

Read something about the Padres OF logjam. Seems that the most obvious trade candidate is Will Myers, who isn't good but is owed $60M over the next 3 years. Would it take an NBA style trade with a throw in player, a la Matt Kemp & the Dodgers, for him to get moved?

Dan Szymborski

12:39

It might. I expect that Renfroe is traded

Raw cookie dough between 2 slices of bread is........?

Dan Szymborski

sandwich

Do you go to Reds games since you're relatively close to Cincinnati?

Dan Szymborski

12:39

Yes

MiserableSDFanListener

12:39

Piggybacking on MiserableSDFan's question, does Kinsler's hot month make him a viable trade candidate?

Dan Szymborski

12:39

Probably not

There was little interest this winter in him

and he's only gotten his stats back up to where they were last year

12:40

It's not like the first six weeks don't count

Dan, you are suddenly and inexplicably are placed into John Mozeliak's body, Freaky Friday style. The only way you can return to your own body is by helping the Cardinals win their division this year. What are your first three moves?

Dan Szymborski

12:42

Release Goldschmidt, Flaherty, Ozuna, keep being a GM.

Matt

12:42

Caleb Smith for Urias, who says no?

Dan Szymborski

12:42

Pads

Marlins probably too because I don't think much of them

12:42

Jackson has blown six saves already. That's not exactly "excellent".

Dan Szymborski

12:42

Blown saves aren't predictive in this manner.

12:43

Joe Borowski's Law

Brood550

How soon after the all-star break should Severino be back in the rotation?

Dan Szymborski

12:44

At this point, I don't think even the Yankees know precisely

Salami Steve

12:45

What do you think the Indians' best course of action with Jake Bauers is?

Dan Szymborski

12:46

If they *must* play Leonys Martin, I can't justify Bauers in the starting lineup, which means minors. If you can play a Naquin/Mercado/Luplow OF, then DH

How does ZIPS see Giolito the rest of the year and going forward career wise? Wondering if 10 starts is enough to move the needle

Dan Szymborski

12:46

Long-term it has

No John Means for ROY?

Dan Szymborski

12:46

He's gotten zero attention really

See Tervor Williams

Mike

12:46

For those who didn't see the intentional balk, please explain a situation where that makes sense.

Raw cookie dough between two cookies is _________?

Dan Szymborski

12:47

sandwich

Morbo

Can we rename your chat to the "Dan Szymbroski Sandwich Adjudication Hour?"

Dan Szymborski

12:47

It would look suspicious if I can't spell my name!

Dave

12:47

If you gather all of the ingredients to make bread and put them on the top and bottom of a living chicken, do you have a deconstructed chicken sandwich?

Dan Szymborski

12:47

No, they won't stay together
