And the fact that there's a *belief* he can handle SS professionally rather than a bit more certainty is an added element of risk
2:29
I think if Giolito or Fulmer had been working out, maybe White Sox would be more willing

Which OF should the Padres give the most PT to? How far is the club away from contention, in your opinion?

2020.

How much shoulda can I go to?
2:31
I'd certianly be playing M argot.  And Renfroe, I think seeing what they actually have in him is important
2:32
And you have to play Reyes when he's up, you can't let him ride the bench
2:33
Myers eventual return complicates things.  But I wouldn't hjave signed Hosmer in the first place
Even though Hosmer's been good, it's essentially meaningless in 2018.  It just makes the last place Padres have worse picks in the draft

What do you make of the Twins?  Think they should be buyers and can compete with the Indians?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:34
Depends where they realistically are in July.  I dont' think they should be aggressive right now

Wait, there are non-terrible Szymborski chats?

Is Luis Severino a top 5 pitcher at this point?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:34
I'll say yes

Why is ZiPS so pessimistic about Seranthony Dominguez?  5.37 ERA projected for RoS
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:35
Well, it's still projecting him as a starter.
and he has a very short resume

Do you believe in Newcomb/Folty turning into legit frontline starters for Atlanta? Seems they are both turning a corner...
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:36
Newcomb still not quite there yet
Foltynewicz has improved far more than I expected.
He's legit now, I think

Would you trade a Milwaukee Brat for a Philly Cheese Steak? I always thought there was a rift between those two.
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:36
I'll take the cheesesteak first
2:37
I'm not from Philly, but Baltimore was close enough that I've been in Philly plenty.  Plus, you had a lot of transplants so you could find good cheesesteaks in the are

I'm partial to Dalessandro's and John's Roast Pork BTW

Dan, how would one go about translating ZiPS season long projections to daily projections? Sincerely, Lowly DFS Player

A lot of work :)

Do the Angels use Canning in the bullpen by the end of this season? Angels need major help there
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:41
They COULD.  They started him at an aggressive spot in the minors, which leads one to believe he could get a September cameo if need be.
I suspect probably no

Does Brinson get dropped to AAA ball?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:42
If so, I hope it's pretty brief.  I dont' think he has much more to learn in AAA
He's gotta either sink or swim in the majors.
And the Marlisn don't have meaningful wins that he's getting in the way of

Is Mazzara gonna stay this good?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:43
I'm cautiously optimistic so I can stop calling him a breakout candidate in a piece every single March!

He was always "supposed" to have power like this
