Los Angeles come see Junior Boys with me https://oct.co/events/october-brings-junior-boys-globe-los-angeles

ChiSox

Is White Sox trade value disappearing? Quintana, Nate Jones, Melky, Frazier...

Eno Sarris

12:01

I don't know if Frazier's is affected so much by a bad batting average, he is who he is. Q could recover it with a good stretch, Melky probably never had any. Jones is too bad but they have him signed for a while so cheap that it's nbd.

Eric

12:02

Start Maeda tonight against the Cards, or wait to see how he looks coming off the DL?

Eno Sarris

12:02

I want to see more.

JD15

12:03

Whats up with Edwin Diaz? Any chance Pazos holds the job or is it just temporary?

Eno Sarris

12:04

I think Diaz just needs more innings, at worst a little mechanical adjustment. Velo still there, swinging strikes, just a little around the side of the ball and missing left to right on the zone.

Matt

12:04

Have we come to a consensus of whether or not Charlie Morton is a good pitcher now? Asking for a friend....

Eno Sarris

12:05

I think the splitter just isn't the platoon split killer that he'd need to be elite. He's good, and then a lefty heavy team will put a hurt on him every once in a while.

Sterling Mallory Chris Archer

12:05

Will Conforto slow down at all?

Eno Sarris

12:05

I'm in love.

Kiermaier's Piercing Green Eyes

12:05

So will you take it like Brandon Guyer or are you hitting the deck as soon as you see something inside?

Grant

For a season in the major leagues, who has the highest wrc+ out of Fangraphs writers?
Dave Cameron
1:09
Eno, because there are probably more MLB pitchers who want to throw at him than anyone else on staff, so he'll get that sweet HBP bump.

Eno Sarris

12:06

Weird, it's the hitters who hate me more, usually. I'd say I'd give up the worst exit velo and a few pitchers would lay it in there for me Waino style actually.

12:06

Someone dropped Edwin Diaz in my 12 team NFBC. You think he settles back into the role and what % FAAB is a reasonable bid on him?

Eno Sarris

12:07

I would absolutely drop 6% on him right now. I don't think it'll take more to get a reliever that's not closing, and he's one of the better speculation pickups right now.

The Hills!

12:07

Who chats on Thursdays?...(boom, boom, boomboomboom)...ENO CHATS ON THURRRRRSDAYS!

Eno Sarris

12:07

Is this to the tune of "WHO'S HOUSE"

Mmm Bacon

12:07

Did you see Joey Votto heckling a heckler? Is there a more fun guy in baseball than Votto? What will it take to get him out of Cincy and somewhere like NY where the national spotlight may increase fan appreciation for the marvel he is?

Eno Sarris

12:08

Earlier that day he asked Edwin to go to dinner with him by writing a note in the dirt in front of the Indians' dugout.

Eric

12:08

Have you changed your opinion on Bour after his torrid couple of weeks? Or is this just a hot streak?

Eno Sarris

12:09

Always thought Bour could hit 30, be he hits some slow points and ends up around 32. Not like he's hitting a ton more fly balls or anything.

Waka

12:09

Let's say Wood gets bombed by the Cubs tomorrow.... do they drop him from the rotation? Dave Roberts is pissing me off

Eno Sarris

12:10

You mad that Ryu might be out? Ryu throwing like 87... they have like 7 worthy major league starters, when they all healthy something has to give (or go to the DL with a phantom injury).

Bob

12:11

What do you expect of Aaron Nola ROS?

Eno Sarris

12:11

mid to low threes ERA, good WHIP, strikeout per inning, not a ton of wins.

Nihilist Eno

12:11

I love beer, but why does it matter if it can't help us escape the inevitable claws of death?

Eno Sarris

12:11

Eat Arby's.

Jake

12:11

Are you starting Verlander tonight?

Eno Sarris

12:11

Yes.

Michael Conforto

12:11

Aaron Judge isn't the SLG-iest OF in NYC any more. Who do I have to talk to about getting a themed seating area? Maybe I need a real nickname first...

Eno Sarris

12:12

Unfortunately my ConfortOH is not catching on.

Jackson

12:12

Greg Bird should be back sometime in early to mid June. Is he a 30 HR player in a full season? Really like his swing.

Eno Sarris

12:12

I think so yes. Maybe not a great average, but great OBP and SLG.

Running out of time to buy low in a dynasty.

Jack

12:12

Which closer situations are you monitoring?

Eno Sarris

12:13

Can't help but watch Arizona, even though the backup options don't tickle my titties. Seattle seems up in the air. Trevor Rosenthal is the best pickup for saves spec in baseball. tommy Kahnle interesting, still think Nats trade for a closer.

Sammy

12:13

Am I starting Samardzilla against the Cubs this afternoon? Did he mention whether he plans to have a good start?

Eno Sarris

12:14

I like him. Day games at Wrigley are a little riskty, but I like him.

Lots of Eggs

12:14

Tell me Trevor Story will be ok...?

Eno Sarris

12:14

Watch his launch angle. Needs to bring it down closer to 20 or he'll be a popup king.
