What do you think of Baez?  Do people still overrate him because his skills are flashy, or underrate him because many of the best things he does don't show up in the box?
Eno Sarris
1:23
I've seen people say he could be the best player in baseball, and I can see that from a tools perspective, he does everything really well. I don't see him getting more patient or reaching less, so I think this is who he is.

Can I recommend scheduling endoscopy and such procedures early in the morning in the future? Cuts back on the pre-op pain.
Eno Sarris
1:24
My first such. Novice move. Also: not a ton of options. I've wanted to do this for years but needed a big event to happen so I could get a referral and a spot on the schedule, which further points to how bad we are at preventative med.

A Wood is very good
Eno Sarris
1:25
A bit fragile, really fell off in second half. I see it now as Kershaw and a very good bunch of guys. I wonder if they want Kershaw, fill in the blank, and a very good bunch of guys.

DUNGEON. MASTER.

In the next three years, who provides more value: Zack Cozart or Dee Gordon?
Eno Sarris
1:26
"probably" Cozart, but Dee has actually been more consistent despite his terrible projections.

Build me the perfect player by Frankensteining different existing players together. Then, build me the perfect sandwich by Frankensteining different existing sandwiches together.
Eno Sarris
1:28
Nelson Cruz plus Billy Hamilton. BLT plus breakfast sandwich.
Babe Lincoln
1:28
Wright was on track for easy HOF, no?
Eno Sarris
1:28
And imagine his years with this ball. Imagine.
The Ghost of Wade Boggs

Settle a bet for me: How often do people ask you to settle a bet for them, but no bet was actually on the line for it to be settled?
Sonny

Why is the new Marlins regime setting up a fire sale? Follow up, if they do sell off Stanton, one of the other OFs and Dee Gordon why is anyone still a Marlins fan?
Eno Sarris
1:30
I don't actually get it myself. You'd think a new group would want to win. Do they want to win with their own players? At $115m, they weren't spending a ton. But if you look back, I guess, they were usually below that number.

Liked your piece on post-season relief appearances. Should we be alarmed that the 2 poster fellas from 2016, Miller and Chapman, both faced injury in 2017?
Eno Sarris
1:30
I would be, when it comes to Morrow, Jansen, and Davis, myself.

Are ball makers aware of the difference in bounciness of their balls, and if so, is it intentional? Can it be dampened?  Should it be?
Eno Sarris
1:31
The company line is that the ball is 'still within normal specifications' so yes, they can tell it's different, but it's in the normal range, so they shrug. I could se this being part of an effort for efficiency: new methods mean the range of bounciness has been narrowed, it just happens to be at the harder end of the allowable spectrum. In which case, both manufacturer and MLB both shrug again.

What does Arizona look to do if they miss out on resigning JD?  Wouild a guy like Bruce fulfill the lineup or will they look to make a move for an Ozuna. (Barring they have the org depth to pull it off)
Eno Sarris
1:32
Move Tomas back out there and just look to improve on either side of the ball? Maybe pen?
Jack

The other day my dad was driving I was in the front seat he sees something on the side of the road. He screams turns around  and we pick a noid out of the trash and bring it to our house.
Eno Sarris
1:33
You? You almost wreck the car, and look at your dad like he's nuts.
Pudge Poison
1:35
Lynn has a lousy xFIP-. Is this because he gave up too many home runs last year?
Eno Sarris
1:36
That should be normalized. I think it's because he gave up too many fly balls and pitched in a park that normally suppresses ground balls.
Ray Liotta as Shoeless Joe
1:36
Damn you Eno. I mixed Nelson Cruz and Billy Hamilton and got a slow, slap hitter.
Eno Sarris
1:36
Gotta get the portions right.

Now settle the debate once and for all: does pineapple belong on Pizza? I say yay
Eno Sarris
1:37
i'm so firmly in the do what you feel camp that I don't even bat an eyelid. I fear my pizza days are over though.

Graduating in December. What is a trip should I take in January to celebrate? (In America)
Eno Sarris
1:37
San Diego? New Orleans?
Stumped in Texas
1:37
why doe the ghost of boggs get multiple questions answered and no mater how many or how many different alias's i use--i get zippetty doo dah answered?
Eno Sarris
1:37
Has he?
Michael
1:38
If the Nationals sign one free agent this winter who will it be?
Eno Sarris
1:39
They already up to $170ish, most they've done, and about $20 from cap. Maybe they surprise with a $20m signing, but I bet they try to find a good framing/D catcher, maybe a starter to pair with Ross.

Hey, last week you suggested allagash white, it was great, anything I should expand to after that? mostly like wheat beers and pilsners. Thanks
Eno Sarris
1:42
Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier, Lagunitas A Little Sumpin' Sumpin' Ale, and maybe give a sour from Allagash a chance.
Chuck N Chino
1:43
Charlie Morton for real, or should I sell High?  Those #'s vs LHB can't be sustained, from a guy that normally struggles versus them -- or is this the new Morton?
Eno Sarris
1:43
Maybe the cutter and splitter usage is good enough, really the main worry is bout injury.
