Something weird happens to your Limbic System when you have kids. It's like someone turns on the hose, and suddenly you're sitting there listening to a song you've heard a million times and you're wiping tears from your face.

Let's assume Benintendi is fine for next year. Better keeper: him or Brantley in a points league?
Eno Sarris
12:02
I'd rather take a shot on Benintendi's power, he looked really impressive at the plate.

How much value does a manager actually provide and is there a quantifiable metric to show how their decisions impact the win-loss total?
Eno Sarris
12:03
My guess is 2-4 wins, and no. Which sucks, because I got my first vote this year, and it's for AL MOY.

Something happens to my Lude System every time I enter this chat.

I saw you enjoyed Mosaic form Odell, what else from Odell do you like or dislike?
Eno Sarris
12:03
St. Lupulin was good, the rest I've had have been just good.
12:04
as in 'fine' as opposed to 'good.'

Hearing some positive things about Sandoval right now. Any chance he can be a productive fantasy player next season?
Eno Sarris
12:04
Why not. He's only 30! As long as he fixed the thing that ailed him.
DB
12:05
What are your thoughts on Luke Weaver ROS? Is he a good spot start at least home to Oakland tomorrow?
Eno Sarris
12:05
Yeah I like that start. He's not getting many whiffs on his breaking ball, but a good fastball and a great change is a good start.

How does Freddie Freeman hit so many line drives with such a steep swing? I don't think anyone else's bat enters the zone at such a nearly vertical angle. You'd think he'd have to time the pitch perfectly to hit a line drive, but he's always at the top of the LD% leaderboard.
Eno Sarris
12:08
Somehow his launch angle is 85th among guys with 30 BIP or more, although it's a bit high, it's right there with Khris Davis, Mike Moustakas, Paul Goldschmidt and Jay Bruce. I think a lot of things look weird about Freeman. Reminds me of something a scout once said about him: Freddie Freeman looks awkward. Freddie Freeman looks unathletic. Freddie Freeman looks like he can't hit. Freddie Freeman can hit.

Marcus Stroman, best pitcher in baseball. Discuss
Eno Sarris
12:10
Those adjustments seemed to have really taken hold, but I like all the strikeouts best.

How is Francouer valuable enough to trade for but Papelbon can't find work?
Eno Sarris
12:10
Clubhouse stuff matters a bit. Valencia is a productive player but has been released and couldn't get the A's anything at the deadline.

ENO - we can't bid on players until they are actually active, and we have weekly roster moves. NL only, need pitching. I have $52 FAAB left, do I bid it all on Rich Hill? I know it might only be 4 or 5 more starts, but can he help? Would I be better off trying for the pair of cole/gsellman? Wins, Ks, ERA
Eno Sarris
12:11
I think go for Hill. How many starts will Cole get and what if that pair isn't really that usable. maybe go 46/6 on Hill/Gsellman.

How many players wear sunscreen? #melanin

You know, I think I'll ask em about this. Because I don't see that much of it.

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight. It must have been something you luded.

With about a month to go in the season, what do you think we your best call of the year? Your worst?
Eno Sarris
12:12
Jake Lamb? Jorge Soler?
12:14
Pitching side... Finally got my reds in DeSclafani and Straily, was pretty happy with Hendricks going into the season but not this happy, thought Keuchel would be top 30 not top 20, but I hated Robbie Ray, Danny Duffy, J.A. Happ, and I really had higher hopes for Brandon Finnegan.
MASH
12:14
Keeper question. For next year how would you rank Miller, Duffy and Arcia at SS?
Eno Sarris
12:14
That order. Well, maybe Arcia ahead of Duffy, though I'd like to see a little more success.

Do you trust Hoffman tomorrow in Was?
Eno Sarris
12:15
no.

Beer for my wedding in November:
Gonna do 4 pony kegs, 3 of which are going to be sculpin, nelson, and .394. Got a rec on a 4th? Wedding is in San Diego, so I'd prefer to keep it local
Eno Sarris
12:16
Maybe a session or a gose? I actually like Karl Strauss' session Mosaic, but that's another fruity one. 32 North makes a great berry berliner weisse that is fresh and light and might give people an alternative.

I've been at a day game in Camden Yards on a gorgeous, sunny day, and the stadium lights were all on. What could possibly be up with that?
Eno Sarris
12:16
They looking at weather reports?
