dedicated to Giancarlo Stanton, this is how much I got on his contract
*** Thursday, November 30 ***

Please tell me why signing Hosmer isn't a terrible idea for the Padres.
Eno Sarris
12:01
Can't imagine why it *would* be a good idea.
Hannah Hochevar

At this point I'd be sad if the O's resign Chris Tillman but also sad if they don't resign Chris Tillman. What's a fan to do?
Eno Sarris
12:01
Be sad, I guess.

With the Cubs saying they are willing to use Ohtani in the OF as well as pitching how much have they improved their chances of landing him?
Eno Sarris
12:02
Giants have said the same. I think the NL teams have to say that. He can play the OF. The question is *should* he play often in the field, considering he's maybe not a top 100 prospect as a hitter.

Was Fister's cheap contract just a reaction to his age or will these mediocre FA arms be cheaper this offseason than predicted?
Eno Sarris
12:03
There are a poop tonne of back end pitchers on the market actually.
Mike

How does the Ohtani sweepstake change if it comes out he needs Tommy John Surgery this year? Are teams still all in on him?
Eno Sarris
12:03
Still a ton of years of control, so yes.
Big Joey

Do you value Turner more than Lindor in a keep forever league that counts OBP and SLG as extra offensive categories?
Eno Sarris
12:04
Yes. With the paucity of steals, he's ahead anyway.
Big Joey
12:04
How do you feel about Conforto now that he received some great news about his recovery? Top 50 player overall?
Eno Sarris
12:05
Great news is just normal, status quo. Bad news is the rarity that you have to look out for. But, sure, it's decent, and he's a great player.

The Rangers just signed Anthony Gose, the former outfielder turned pitcher. With Ohtani coming over, and at the least very least, players like Gose and James Jones floating around, could we see two players actually becoming a thing?
Eno Sarris
12:07
Maybe on the edges of rosters, 26th men type guys that can relieve and be a fifth outfielder. That would be a good use of the back end roster spot. Pitching and hitting are very hard, and the people that focus on one will always be ahead. Ask catchers.

ever heard of BeBop Deluxe?  
Eno Sarris
12:07
Fun. Had only heard of Cowboy Bebop.

I am skeptical of your methodology on team health--I'm concerned about selection bias. E.g. the Rays are notorious for taking injured players on two-year bounceback deals (Eovaldi, Ramos), but it doesn't reflect badly on their traning staff. If anything, it looks good that they believe they can fix them! I might also make an argument about signing injury risks for less money. Maybe other teams are more risk averse.
Eno Sarris
12:09
It was just a few different ways to look at it, and of course, you're right about these concerns. Like the Dodgers have the same concerns about it. I have no idea how to account for this selection bias though. It's there under every DL-based analysis.

Which team is the most likely to accidentally sign Cosart thinking he was Cozart, and just run him out there at SS anyways?
Eno Sarris
12:09
80 arm, can't hit the first baseman.

the young top prospect to target this offseason in dynasty leagues is...
Eno Sarris
12:09
Don't spend like they're top ten guys, but I came away from the AFL very impressed with Michael Chavis and Austin Riley, and they won't cost like Acuna et al.

Eno, our keeper deadline is in the middle of February. Last choice comes down to Fulmer, Ray, and Wood. Fulmer costs $2 more than either. Which one? Is Fulmers injury big enough that he isn't an easy choice. FWIW, I've got him in my top 15 if healthy.
Eno Sarris
12:10
Eliminate Wood. I suppose Ray is healthy and could become a top 15 guy himself.

Whats worse: Pumpkin Beers, Christmas beers, a colonoscopy?
Eno Sarris
12:11
A well done interlude.
Scott
12:11
Who do you think has more trade value right now: Samardzjia or Cueto?
Eno Sarris
12:11
Jeff is a healthy quantity guy, him.
Larry Biggersby

Byron Buxton: Steamer/Depth have 20/20 and 315 OBP. Over/Under?
Eno Sarris
12:14
I'll go with under, over.... over.
Larry
12:14
Wow, you really have the market cornered on Stanton articles. Does he need a restraining order?
Eno Sarris
12:14
This offseason has sucked so far.
Larry
12:15
Does Domingo Santana still have room to grow beyond last year's 30/15? if not, can he match it even?
Eno Sarris
12:16
He still doesn't hit a ton of fly balls! I think he could hit for more power if he could lift it more. I think he can mostly repeat if health is there.
Scott
12:17
I can't stop reading every single article about Ohtani, everywhere. Is there a point where there is too much Ohtani content, and will we ever reach it?
