What does Mozeliak see in Dakota Hudson to warrant a rotation spot? What’s the secret sauce they like here?

Have you ever had a family argument where the opportunity to play saloon fight music has come up? If so, how do you resist the urge?

Dan Szymborski

12:43

I don't have the proper honky tonk sound

If you had a to start a new franchise with either Gavin Lux or Wander Franco as your SS of the future, which would you choose?

Dan Szymborski

12:43

I like Lux, but Franco

Frie Kieboom. Baseball needs his name up in the bigs already

Dan, I think we should collaborate on some articles. I have minimal baseball knowledge and a limited vocabulary so you'll have to do all of the work. You should think about it!

Tim Tebow

Is this the end of the line for me?

Dan Szymborski

12:44

If logic can't stop your rise through the minors, why would happenstance?

Don't forget to use the emjois!!

This time next year, Chris Davis will be ________. (Please fill in the blank.)

Any chance I secure better than 2/20 in the upcoming FA?

Dan Szymborski

12:44

Well, there's a chance

WTF

The Jays announcers, sort of joking, called Urshela "one of the best hitters in baseball" yesterday. It's funny, but he... has... actually... been a very good hitter? When does he turn back into awful?

Dan Szymborski

12:45

Don't know if he'll go be back to awful

I don't think he's a star, but our evaluations should change based on subsequent stuff

Gio Urshela is a true talent ____ WAR player moving forward

Did the Red Sox mess up by keeping D^2 instead of Mike Hazen? In just a few years, Mike Hazen has completely transformed the team's minor league talent (now a top 5 farm system) WHILE also keeping a competitive team in the interim. Meanwhile the Red Sox won a World Series and then... meh?

Dan Szymborski

12:45

I would have personally kept Hazen.

Steamed Hams

12:46

Would it make sense for the Red Sox to sell off a major league piece to replenish the farm a bit in order to look towards the future? Specifically a guy like Benintendi could command a nice little haul.

Dan Szymborski

12:46

If you can't extend Betts, I think you seriously have to explore trading him this winter

Sean

WoW classic update: decided yet if you're gonna play?

Dan Szymborski

12:46

On the fence. So many quality-of-life updates in MMOs make it hard to go back to older one.

I happily played FFXI on and off from 2004-2009. I could not go back

If you're excluding the "pizza sandwich", then you must exclude a PB&J. In assembling the PB&J, you must put one ingredient on each piece of bread thus integrating them (try to remove either the peanut butter or jelly once applied...I dare you).

Dan Szymborski

12:47

I'll have to consider it.

Raisins are IN the raisin bread. Pizza toppings are not in the crust.

Re: Maddon managing the Cubs next year. If this season's results have no impact, do you think he's managing the Cubs next season?

Dan Szymborski

12:48

I think he does

Seems a little late to be building a projection system, Billy.

Dan Szymborski

12:48

There are always new ideas

Bigfoot Erotica

The Tigers' top 5 in positional player WAR on the active roster includes a pitcher with two PAs and the ever-awful Gordon Beckham. I know it would be highly unlikely for them to lose 120 games, but does Zips have any odds for it? They are somehow losing even more frequently than the O's
