be here shortly. If you've seen the ads on MLBN, you've heard this song, but it's great, and the video even better:
Jack Black
12:00
Please rank for 2016: Eovaldi, R. Hill, Berrios, Snell
Eno Sarris
12:00
You got it, but I could see moving Berrios ahead of Hill. Hill only has two pitches...

Would you be so kind as to name three prospects you would love to roster at this weekend's AL-LABR?
Eno Sarris
12:02
You going to make me bare all my strategy eh. I'll give you a couple: Michael Fulmer and Kyle Zimmer. Because, opportunity.
Otis
12:02
favourite brewery not from the US of A?
Eno Sarris
12:02
Cantillon.

Who do you like more between Mazara and Brinson, both in the short-term and long-term? Do either make a significant impact this season?
Eno Sarris
12:03
Mazara closer and higher floor. Really nice swing. Brinson higher ceiling but higher bust rate and further away. I usually end up with Mazara types.

Did you listen to Dan Haren on Jonah's podcast? Have other players expressed their anxieties with playing to you? Highly recommend giving it a listen if you haven't.
Eno Sarris
12:04
Dan Haren himself talked about it a bit with me. I've heard it some from Sam Fuld and others. But it's all such an alpha male sport, you're not going to get a lot of people to admit it, particularly while they are in the league.
brad
12:04
do you think piscotty's changes in swing mechanics can lead to a jd Martinez like break out?
Eno Sarris
12:04
Yes. Well, not sure he has that same power ceiling, but I see similar changes.
Astro Boy
12:04
Who's the starting 1B for the Astros on Opening Day? Does that individual keep the job all year?
Eno Sarris
12:05
Singleton or Tucker. I actually think it might be Tucker. And no.
Mitt Romney
12:06
I find myself loving Nick Castellanos for the upcoming season. What say you about his prospects for breaking out in 2016?
Eno Sarris
12:07
He's only 23 so he should grow in all departments. Just a little more contact and a little more power and he could be a .275/20 guy. In real life, that needs to be paired with better defense.
Shamus
12:07
You've sold me on Liam Hendricks over the past few months, but how feasible is it that he would even be ahead of Axford on the depth chart at this point? If your sole focus was vulturing saves and you could only roster one of Hendricks or Madson, would you still go Hendricks?
Eno Sarris
12:07
Yes.
Miketron
12:07
So how far has Soler's value fallen?
Eno Sarris
12:07
Depressingly far. Right now, having trouble seeing more than 300 PA...
Yankee Doodle
12:07
What kind of expectations do you have for Starlin Castro this year? Would you rather have him, Andrus or Semien?
Eno Sarris
12:07
Semien. Castro should be fine but his ceiling isn't huge and his floor is bad.
Marc
12:08
Southern Tier is opening a microbrewery by PNC park in Pittsburgh soon. On a scale of 1 to All Of It, how much should I blow between that and baseball?
Eno Sarris
12:08
This is useful for my craft beer guide! thanks!
Hannah Hochevar
12:08
Is having two kids like signing two QO free agents? Once you've committed to losing one pick, you might as well lose two. (So long as one kid doesn't turn around and sign with the Cubs instead...)
Eno Sarris
12:08
I guess but the third just seems like too much for me. Don't tell my wife I said that. Well, I guess she knows.
Jt
12:08
Do you have any suggestions for a strategy for the last 10-15 rounds of the nfbc draft and hold leagues? The guys left are seriously bottom of the barrel. All prospects people have heard of are gone.
Eno Sarris
12:08
Set it up so that you're picking starters and relievers. That's where you want quantity anyway.
Brandon
12:09
How would you rank Stanton, Machado, and Arenado in a points league system this year? And how would you rank them as far as keepers? Thanks.
Eno Sarris
12:09
Machado, Stanton, Arenado. But Arenado may slide ahead of Stanton as a keeper.
Alex
12:09
Would you rather have Jacob deGrom as a 2nd round keeper or Carlos Carrasco as a 4th round keeper? There are 96 players kept in this league, so a 2nd round pick isn't exactly your traditional 2nd round pick.
Eno Sarris
12:10
Still so many great players available after keepers selected. I'd rather have CC.
Gerb
12:10
Does Salazar have to potential to make the next step and give Cleveland 3 true aces? What are the odds that the AL Cy Young goes to a Cleveland pitcher?
Eno Sarris
12:11
I think so. The curve has potential. And the odds have to be better than most. I found that past Cy Youngs have come mostly from pitchers projected as top 30 pitchers in their late twenties. That describes most of the top three.
Sean P
12:11
Are the White Sox being foolish by going into next year with Rollins/Saladino at short and Garcia in right?
Eno Sarris
12:12
No, they have Anderson and he could benefit from a little less pressure, so I like the Rollins thing. Not getting in on Fowler or another late OF might have been a mistake though.
Pretty Tony
12:12
Live in MI and just got Ballast Point here in November. A sixer of Sculpy still costs 14, 15 bucks most places. Do prices typically drop after a few months after a brewery expands its distribution or am I going to have to treat myself to BP only when I'm feeling like splurging?
