Josiah Gray has spent 15 career innings in AAA and 40 in AA. Shouldn't he be in the minors this year? Isn't his season an indictment on Mike Rizzo?

Dan Szymborski

1:04

I do think he was rushed

1:05

I think he succumbed to the pressure of having to show NOW benefits from the Scherzer/Turner trade

What are the chances of an LIV- style attack on MLB. It seems to me that if half to 3/4 of your best talent are making very little then a new (much smaller) league could pick them off easily

Dan Szymborski

1:06

I think it's hard becuase you have to soak off a LOT of players

shortstop

See, Moore's "schtick"... the negative sentiment seems to go beyond 'bad GM'. That's what I'm not getting.

Dan Szymborski

1:06

I don't think I've ever said anythign negative about Moore as a person outside of his GM duties.

And if you find something, I'll be happy to link it.

1:07

If you hate someone, you certainly don't give him The Rock's finishing move!

The Mariners frequently push their fans to the brink of death and then revive them, so why shouldn't they do that to the players?

Note - Eduardo Rodriguez was developed by the O's. He came to Boston in exchange for a half season of Andrew Miller.

Jerry

Do the M's have the best rotation in baseball? Castillo, Ray, Gilbert and Kirby look like all at least #2's with Castillo being a #1.

Dan Szymborski

1:09

I'm not sure it's the BEST but I think it may be the DEEPEST

On the infield dirt issue and gamesmanship - my kids' middle school had a rule prohibiting hair hanging below the eyebrows. So one boy shaved his eyebrows to get around the rule. True story.

What happened to bunting for a hit ? With BA plummeting, it would seem it's a far better bet to try and yet bunting for hits seems to have disappeared

Dan Szymborski

1:09

It's not the easiest thing to do!

Pocomoke City MD!

Joe

Surprised at the reluctance from NYY to play Peraza?

Dan Szymborski

1:10

I think the Yankees are, for obvious reasons, are rather risk-averse at their position.

He SHOULD be starting the final week of the season though

Moog Powell

If you're 64 and 84, it would not be possible to win 20 more games to get to .500 . . . (unless you are counting on there are tie-breaker games)

Dan Szymborski

1:10

I mean theoretically

Call it 44 and 64 then

Pedro

1:11

How could I forget Skaggsville? That wins

Rip Calkin

Looking at how Adley and Gunnar have debuted, and looking at the wave of talent coming up behind them....even the O's can't screw this up, right? Right?

Dan Szymborski

1:11

I certainly hope not!

Not looking at ZiPS, what do you believe the odds are of Judge pulling the triple crown off?

Dan Szymborski

1:11

I'm not sure I can wipe my brain of knowledge of the model I wrote! I think you'd have to ask me before I ran it this year

Just Fowl

1:12

What top free agent will see his market not develop and thus end up in BOS?

Dan Szymborski

1:12

Dayton Moore :-D

On that note, it's time for me to head out for another week. Thanks for coming everyone!

What's for lunch today?

Dan Szymborski

1:12

A burrito that "Jazzman" delievered

Key Flaw

1:13

Is my annoyance of the use of "100th percentile" a hill I should be willng to die on?
