I will feed him early if I have radio at some point between 2 and 4.
Because he will see me doing something and come into the office and start meow-barking

Is it ok to vote for the worst players on the league you don't like in the All-Star game?
AvatarDan Szymborski

Sure.  It's not an expert panel!

Odds the O's wait until 3 minutes before the deadline to pull the trigger on an ultimately disappointing Machado package, and then bungle the paperwork and the deal falls through?

Have you had any interactions with ballplayers outside of a ballpark/press event?  Did they go well?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:34
Not that I can think of offhand.  I interact with May about video games.

Re: Jim and Pam, it is the sum of all of the parts. I won't go into too much detail, but in this new #metoo theater, I think a lot of people would see through Jim as being a misogynist snake.

Yeah, I don't want to jump into this area!

The O's are in the James Spader on The Office part of their timeline
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:34
I actually think James Spader could have worked if they had a better idea what to do with him
2:35
BUt they just kinda threw him in there and said "OK, be a slightly creepy rich guy" and left it at that

On the bright side, if Brady becomes the GM imagine the stories that will be able to be written about how he refuses to admit he's no longer a player, dressing in a uniform, sitting in the dugout, leading the pregame warmups...

I'm not sure that Brady isn't better than Joey RIckard right now

Dan, I recently made chili and one friend brought over home made sourdough and another brought over home made cheese and honestly, I felt like i was living 'MY BEST LIFE' and I want to thank you for making me think about chili every time you chat.
I contend that street food of every culture is the best food. Hence the height of American cuisine is the hot dog.

Who makes a bigger offensive impact once he makes it to the Show, Eloy Jimenez or Tatis Jr.?
AvatarDan Szymborski

Eloy, but Tatis is going to be awesomesauce over all

Carson prefers burgers at IHOb!

Carlos Martinez is really struggling. Did the Cardinals rush him back?
AvatarDan Szymborski

Not positive, but I think there's a case to be made.

He's a young phenom oozing with talent who always had power upside

Is this the decline of Kyle Seager?
AvatarDan Szymborski

We all put mustard on our pitches
2:46
Sorry, I had to reboot my laptop
and Windows decided it was totally going to apply an update right there and then
On Seager, I fear so.

2017 was a real down year too
And 2018 has been even worse
