I'd imagine Clint Frazier or Matt Holliday would be who Yankees fans would prefer at DH
Eno Sarris
1:14
Is Clint on the playoff roster? Or we talking going back in time and changing that. Holliday will get some ABs.
Dread Pirate Roberts
1:15
Do you think DiPoto has it in him to do the full rebuild that the M's need? Or will he turn over 75% of the roster next year to win 77 games?
Eno Sarris
1:15
Oh god is he going to trade as much this year again? I kinda think, like Preller, you get once chance to do all that. Now maybe he can sign one or two FA.
Nelson
1:15
Carlos Santana get like 3/36 from an AL team? more/less?
Eno Sarris
1:16
so much power out there, I doubt he gets a huge payday, so he ends up close to that and at home.
Steve O
1:16
Now. They can put Clint Frazier or even Tyler Austin on the roster. At least they can run into one.
Eno Sarris
1:17
Oh right, new slate. True. Comfortable with Gardner as the backup CF?

Hot take alert: I think the old-school announcers complaining about bullpen usage are getting at a larger point– it's not a good thing that baseball's postseason is so different from the regular season. It'd be like the NBA going 3 on 3, first to 21 for the playoffs.
Eno Sarris
1:18
So what do they do? Push games closer to game and eliminate rest days? Play on travel days?
Matt
1:18
Independent of what happens in the rest of the playoffs, what do you think the Cubs need to do this offseason, independent of reshuffling the pen? Do they need to add a traditional lead-off guy?
Eno Sarris
1:18
Same thing they've always had to go get: pitching.

I started trying to get into B Eno again recently. I like it more than last time. On Some Faraway Beach is my current favorite

Do you have opt out predictions for Tanaka and Upton
Eno Sarris
1:20
Something tells me Tanaka keeps 3/67. Upton I think opts out.
Hunky Dory
1:21
Can change playoff roster for next round, can't they?  I'd drop Holliday and add Wade or Frazier for DH/PR
Eno Sarris
1:22
Drop Holliday for untested rookie, huh? I might be more inclined to do Frazier for Ellsbury rn.

The Braves will exercise Flowers' option, right? I really want him to end up on a good team. He deserves more than just a time share with Zuk (nothing but love for Zook, he was my teammate at CSUF, but Flowers is really, really good)
Eno Sarris
1:22
They will, I'd guess.

thoughts on hitters having different swings for different pitches? theoretically if the pitch recognition is advanced enough to differentiate between low/high pitches, a hitter could put uppercut/flat swings on different zones. might only work when the pitches are slow enough for the mid-swing adjustment though, like curveballs with aaron judge.
Eno Sarris
1:23
I know for a fact that Matt Duffy has two swings. I know that Votto steps differently based on location of pitch. I'm guessing some guys have different swings based on 2s / 4s. But I think it's hard to perfect two swings.
Brad
1:23
need to keep either degrom or grienke next year.  I'm leaning degrom.  What say you?  Thanks.
Eno Sarris
1:23
yah love his strikeout rate and age.

What does a Stanton trade roughly look like.
Eno Sarris
1:26
I mean I did the math based on him being a six win guy next year. I found like $180m surplus! That's a lot. Depth charts call him a 5.5 win guy. That costs him ten wins and gives him $80m surplus, roughly. So maybe one good prospect, one meh one, and pick up all the cash?

If you had to drink a pumpkin beer, what would it be?
Eno Sarris
1:26
Almanac sour.
Batflips for BBs
1:27
Any thoughts on filling of managerial voids? Anyone seem like a perfect fit?
Eno Sarris
1:27
Interested in Cora.
Jason44
1:27
Favorite fall seasonal beer?
Eno Sarris
1:27
Wet/fresh hop beers.
They like melon vegetable if that sounded good.
Chappie
1:28
Now I'm thinking of chapstick.
Jay

What's Bryan Shaw's market going to look like? Led baseball in relief appearances since 2013 now. Been durable and reliable since then but will teams take that usage into consideration?\
Eno Sarris
1:28
I think he'll be in demand. That 95 mph cutter as sexy as he isn't.
Justino
1:28
Is there an MLB blooper better than Jose Canseco's ball-off-the-noggin-over-the-RF-wall-for-a-homer blooper?
Eno Sarris
1:29
I liked Barney arm crawling to third, who was it that slid into a butt at second base, Steve Sax taking his pants off at first...
Sweet Lou
1:29
At this point with the game on the line, you have to PH for Judge right?  Picture 2-out man on second, yanks tied in the 8th type of scenario
Eno Sarris
1:29
Nope.
