It has been an honor to participate in this weekly chat about everything. It is modestly above better than average.

Ohtani getting hurt is the sign of the impending apocalypse.  Those things happen to the Mariners, not in the Mariners' favor.

I like having a house large enough that if I have family over, I can be at a different part of the house and pretend that nobody's here

Was Chili Davis the world's leading expert on chili?

Only if he was specifically named FOR his expertise

$92M for 2 months of Machado seems like a bit much.
AvatarDan Szymborski
3:00
Yeah, that's the problem.
3:01
You'd probably have to trade Machado, Gausman, and Bundy to make a trade worth even talking about to take Davis scot-free

correct.

Does it make sense for rebuilding teams to package assets with bad contracts? I've seen some teams do this and I feel like they don't really need payroll flexibility at the expense of better talent in return.

I think the opposite.  They should be willing to cover *more* of the salary in order to get better prospects.
There are only a few ways to outright pay for prospects.  This is one of them.

I used to always order fish and chips from across the street when my buddies and I played poker strictly because it pissed them off that I would pour vinegar all over everything and stink up the room.

Dan.....Carson on line 2..Carson on line 2. He demands comments on soup and sandwiches if this nonsense is to go on.

There's over five grams of sugar in a single ounce of ketchup!   That shit is almost literally a gut in a bottle.

The History of Little Goody Two-Shoes is a children's story published by John Newbery in London in 1765.

I saw what you said about Hiura being the best projected 2B that the Brewers have. In your opinion, should they call him up and slide Villar back to SS?
AvatarDan Szymborski
3:04
Villar's a poor defensive shortstop, but I rather have him and Miller at short than Arcia right now

Old Bay is just crushed red pepper, black pepper, paprika, and celery salt. Discuss.
AvatarDan Szymborski
3:04
No, there's more in it
there's mace and ginger and cardamom
3:05
I think honey powder too?
On that note, it's time for me to head off for another week!
Thanks for coming everyone, I'll see you all next time.
