Black I think works with Marlins unis because it balances ou tthe more tropical colors they use (the teal, the orange, etc)

Though I do like the modern blue with gray

1:00

and I hate the recent black alternate

that looks like an old alternate mets uiforms

Dan

1:00

I just got a PS4. It's the newest system I've had since the 1990s. What should I play first?

Dan Szymborski

1:00

MLB the Show!

LFC Mike

1:00

These work conference calls just get in the way of participating in your chats Dan. I am sorry.

Your Name

1:00

You had me in the first half, not gonna lie

Appa Yip Yip

1:00

Jay didn't agree with my irrational assertion that my favourite team will outperform their projections

Dan Szymborski

1:00

Don't harass Jay! Save the crazy stuff for my chats.

Dbo

1:01

you know how they say if you lock enough chimps in a room they’ll come up with shakespeare? How many cats would you have to lock in a room with a keyboard where they step on the right keys to select a winning roster for a fantasy team?

Dan Szymborski

1:01

The Royals won a World Series.

Appa Yip Yip

1:01

Get mad at Cito all you want but Showalter is the one who didn't use Britton

Dan Szymborski

1:01

I was mad at that one too!

1:02

For those that think I'm too easy on Buck Showalter, this was my video of his bullpen usage *that* game.

Tim Tebow's Thunder Thighs

1:02

Who is your pick for the prospect most likely to make a large impact due to unforeseen injuries/illnesses who otherwise was not expected to see much big league action this year? Please say Tebow. Thanks.

Dan Szymborski

1:02

Tebow. YOU TOLD ME TO

Adam

1:02

O/U Franchy home runs this season? Hoping for ~37.

Dan Szymborski

1:02

slight under

5-way

1:02

Chili Time or Skyline

Dan Szymborski

1:03

WTF is Chili Time?

Adam

1:03

If you were an MLBer what number would you wear?

Dan Szymborski

1:03

Wore that number as a kid and through as a teenager.

Just like the number because it can be 33, EE, WW, or MM depending on how you look at it!

69 also

1:04

OH yeah, worst Marlins jersey is turn ahead the clock one

It had the GIANT MARLINS LOGO on the front

and dumb digital font number on the back

I hate these dumb digital font numbers.

1:05

Like why to do the Buccaneers use those? Is this mascot supposed to be "pirating" cheap digital sports watches?

The numbers should look like the font on a treasure map!

1:06

Thank god that one's going away.

Adam

1:06

A drafty apartment? A sweaterless friend? Step 9!

Dan Szymborski

1:06

I would not ask to use someone's cashmere sweater as I know I have a large head.

They could *barely* fit my head into a box on MLB Network yetserday!

I uh, asked Jay a question about something he had written that I disagreed with. And then asked a follow-up question because he didn't really respond to what I was asking about. Wasn't trying to piss him off, he seems like a nice dude. Was just really hoping he might consider an alternative point of view. He didn't seem to be in the mood.

Dan Szymborski

1:07

Jay's a very nice dude! I don't know what happened though.

Remember, chats are really for quick responses and it can be tonally awkward to go on a super serious tangent.

Connecting…
