It's so sad. But I don't think they're going to trade him.
12:19
I love rock that's secretly downtempo electronica.

True or False: Kevin Kiermaier is Peter Bourjos w/ a better PR team
Eno Sarris
12:20
And better eyes obviously. I know KK is 26, but there's been a lot of incremental improvement to the point that he's now average or better in power, patience, contact, speed, and plus plus in defense. I think he's a little closer to a Simmons.

What do the Braves have that the White Sox might want for Chris Sale?
Eno Sarris
12:21
To get Sale it would probably cost Inciarte and Albies and Newcomb and Soroka? That's the best the Braves have to offer, probably, and it gives the White Sox cost-controlled CF, 2B, and two shots at an ace pitcher.

Which side do you like better in ottoneu 5x5, $23 Cano or $16 Polanco?
Eno Sarris
12:22
10 years and $7 overcomes the MI and power value.

why don't pitchers put mustard on their hands? it'd ruboff on the baseball and make it a bit yellowish in tint and harder to see.
Eno Sarris
12:23
That foreign substance might actually get the managers and umpires mad.

What do you expect the Yankees to get for McCann?
Eno Sarris
12:24
Cash relief, 50-75 ranked type prospect?

Chances Blue Jays go the trade route to address the corner outfield spots as opposed to free agency? If they go the trade route who do you see as movable pieces for the Jays?
Eno Sarris
12:25
I mean they're not going to sign Cespedes, and if it's not Bautista... Holliday? Desmond? Maybe someone like Brandon Moss. Their MO right now seems to be "Cobble Together" rather than "Sign a Star".

Could the A's keep Gray and deal some of Graveman/Hahn/Alcantara/Mengden instead?
Eno Sarris
12:26
The other guys have more years of control and less trade value though. Not Beane's MO.
Michael
12:26
One MLB GM said it would be just like the Yankees to trade for Trout. Could you see it happening if they gave up Judge, Mateo, plus plus plus?
Eno Sarris
12:27
They suddenly have the parts!
Gest

I was noodling through statcorner because of your Hendricks tweet, and I see that Rodon has a 22.7% zTkB. Can this be counted on to even out?
Other guys with large samples near the top are Conley, Corbin, Paxton, Sale, Finnegan, Reed. ie lefties with sliders. They all throw from a pretty low slot too (Paxton's zTkB increased this year).
Fwiw, I've read before about lefties getting screwed on their glove side corner.
Eno Sarris
12:28
Very interesting! I shall write it up! Thank you, Gest! The angle probably makes it look like a ball. Miller seems to get those calls, though!
Chuncey Wiggins

Biggest slight to not win an award this year belongs to?
Eno Sarris
12:28
I think Justin Verlander was a shoo-in myself. I'm glad my stupid ALMoY vote didn't decide anything. I'm surprised Maddon didn't win, but I wouldn't call it a snub.

Lots of big names on the trade block...is this going to be a crazy offseason, or is it just a lot of smoke but no fire.
Eno Sarris
12:29
Free agency sucks so bad I think something will happen.

Soler still has 80 grade traps though. I wish Google produced a shirtless pic of him, who's with me?!

people who don't read when pooping are weird, right?
Eno Sarris
12:30
Hey we got an interlude yay us
and: yes.
Hank
12:30
Why oh why do people think Jorge Soler has a ton of trade value? I get that he has potential, but he has done NOTHING to make anyone think he's a superstar waiting to break out.
Eno Sarris
12:31
Nothing? Hits the ball extremely hard, has shown above-average patience and power so far in his career, been an above-average bat overall, has some potential still to tap, and is under team control for a few more years. He has some trade value, but it's dropped a bit.
Ant
12:32
i'm soooooooooooooooooooooooo happy you're back
Eno Sarris
12:32
Seems sarcastic.
Art Vandelay
12:32
Dozier...is he even worth a Brandon McCarthy type? Or would the Twins aim younger do you think?
Eno Sarris
12:32
He's worth a good bit. Signed for only $15 million for the next two years and just put up nine-plus wins in the last two years.
Matt D
12:33
your take on Lugo / Gsellman? Also if -- MAJOR if -- NYM's big 5 are generally healthy this year, do either of them carry any real deadline trade value?
Eno Sarris
12:34
Yes they have value. Gsellman has a good fastball and a kitchen sink, Lugo has a recordbreaking curve. They'll have trade value with the scarcity of FA pitching. I suppose if the Mets decide to get a bat with arms instead of money they could traded now, but it's not really how they've worked in the past.

What do you think are the odds that Noah Syndergaard ever wins a Cy Young
