Not to this level

why are we ascribing sentience to ZiPS?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:55
Easier to scapegoat a sentient thing
Like how we pretend Carson has a soul in order to blame him for things

If you wrapped a taco salad up in a tortilla, is it a taco salad?

If you ate an open-faced burrito, is it a taco salad?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:55
no, it may be a taco salad taco
and open faced burrito is just a giant taco
Matt
2:56
Regarding two tacos becoming a burrito - no, but if you heat it up with some cheese, it becomes a quesadilla.

Is a tostada really just a mexican open faced sandwich?

How many dedicated trolls would it take to turn me into the next Nick Markakis wrt your chats?

Luis Castillo or Zack Godley more likely to turn it around this year?
AvatarDan Szymborski

Castillo I think, but I'm a huge fan

As an Orioles fan what is your dream return for a Machado trade?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:57
Any trade in which the O's get to throw in the Angeli and Brady Anderson

The Royals won the series in 2015.  The statute of limitations against mocking them has to be getting close, no?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:57
I've never recognized that statute of limitations

Fangraphs standings says the Yanks have played 55 G for a 37-17 record...what?
AvatarDan Szymborski

That's weird.  I thought they forgot to remove a rainout from the game etotals, but the O's are right

I have stubbornly resisted buying Scooter Gennett as a legitimate offensive force. Is it time I quit being so stubborn?

He's not going to have a .400 BABIP at the end of the year.  But the rest of the stuff is real.

Why are there so many reports saying that Detroit is out on Mize? Seems like a no-brainer at the #1 spot.

I'm behind this morning as I woke up late.  I did not know that ground had shifted suddenly
3:00
O
I've assumed for awhile that it would be Mize at #1.
Probably should have talked to Keith.

AvatarDan Szymborski

I'm sorry you know who he is now.  That's on me.

What if you split a burrito longways, would you end up with two soft tacos?
AvatarDan Szymborski
3:02
Sort of?  Again, what's wrong with you people?

If you put Nick Markakis in a hot dog bun instead of a tortilla, would he then be a sandwich?
AvatarDan Szymborski

NO

mancinis babip is a bit low, but he's also hitting more grounders. you think he can straighten out a bit ros?
AvatarDan Szymborski
3:03
Honeslty, I thought he was over his head in 2017.  I was buying Schoop's step forward more than Mancini's
He's always hit a *lot* of grounders
3:04
I know Norfolk's not the PCL, but that was an anemic 2016
