How do you think fantasy sites (NFBC, ESPN, Yahoo, CBS, etc.) will account for two-way players moving forward?
Eno Sarris
12:39
LABR -- weekly lineups on a platform that allows for a lot of tweaking -- has announced that he will be one player but you have to decide to play him as a pitcher or hitter. That seems possible for many platforms. Getting both every day is going to be impossible without opening that up for every hitter and pitcher I think. Imagine getting innings from your Jon Jay.

I may have missed your thoughts on Luiz Gohara, but would love to know what you think. Hardest throwing lefty and a 41.9 percent whiff rate on that slider. Watching his games he looked better than the overall numbers show
Eno Sarris
12:40
One thing that happens when you watch him is remember the good changeups. The bad changeups are bad. Fastball slider and that command, could be an NL Michael Pineda. The change is what will make him a star if he can harness it.

Can Felix turn things around? What needs to happen for him to see success moving forward?
Eno Sarris
12:40
HE'S ONLY FIVE YEARS OLD OKAY
12:41
Oh wait you're not talking about my son.
12:42
Hernandez? I dunno. With this stuff in particular, he's pretty close to a league average pitcher. Can he bring some velo back?

What would you do with Kluber in dynasty this year? Sell maybe a couple years early while his stock is through the roof for a hitter?
Eno Sarris
12:43
If you're winning, then I guess you have to hold. Decent time to sell though.
Jstodola
12:43
If the Brewers sign Arrieta, would he become their #1 starter or would Nelson be #1?
Eno Sarris
12:44
Nelson has shoulder issues. He's number two until he's healthy and dominating again.
Currently on 31BX

Derrick Goold says the Stanton delay is on the Marlins not Stanton. Think they’re trying to extract Helios from SFG or still trying to lure LAD?
Eno Sarris
12:44
Yeah and SF really wants to keep that young guy, he's the only prospect they really have.
Hannah Hochevar
12:45
So which among the poop tonne (not counting Chatwood, who is hyping up) of starters should my O's sign?
Eno Sarris
12:48
Obviously money matters, but I like Lynn more than many people do. Chatwood. Henderson Alvarez on a real small deal. Jaime Garcia? Pineda? CC.

Do you think Maeda would speak (to Ohtani) highly, neutrally, or negatively about the way the Dodgers have tried to keep Maeda's arm fresh? I imagine it would greatly affect (if not completely dictate) how Ohtani perceives the Dodgers as a suitor.
Eno Sarris
12:48
I think he would speak positively, but I won't go with highly considering he threw like 75 pitches over a two day period in the world series.
12:49
Stumped in Texas
12:49
Have always like Taillon's control. stuff and makeup. Think he'll round back into form?
Eno Sarris
12:50
Was surprised to see DRA say he deserved his numbers last year, and that, combined with my disbelief in his changeup, and his injuries, makes me nervous. Bright young guy with good command, but right now he's like an Alex Cobb.
Stevil

There's a flood of 1B options this offseason, one of them should be Christian Walker, who's seemingly blocked in Arizona (yet he's on their 40). Could be a steal for a team needing a first sacker?
Eno Sarris
12:52
Who needs a first baseman though? The Royals, Red Sox, and maybe Mets? Everyone seems to be punting the position.
He Hate Me
12:52
How much of the Ohtani two-way talk is Kool-Aid? Longenhagen has him at 40/45 hit, 60 raw. That might do as a NL pinchhitter who saves you from burning a position player but it's hardly starting OF/DH. Does he at least have a platoon split?
Eno Sarris
12:52
I've seen some put him at 50+ hit, 70 raw power, which makes him more interesting. But yes, the hitting part is the real question mark here.
Ryan

Thoughts on the Yusmeiro Petit signing?
Eno Sarris
12:53
Love the invisiball, love the role.
Ray Liotta as Shoeless Joe
12:53
What happens first: Ohtani signs, Stanton [or the entire rest of the Marlins' roster] is traded, Bret Boone tweets something stupid.
Eno Sarris
12:53
Bret Boone going to drop a whopper any second in response I'm sure

In this post PED era, players who are 28+ just aren’t worth a lot of FA money. Teams are smarter to invest in scouting international market etc. does this presage the Union moving to shorten the length of team control or revamping arb?
Eno Sarris
12:54
The union is not good at what they do. It's always been about arbitration and arbitration sucks.
Speedy
12:54
How good would you feel about running a Matt Olson/Random RH bat platoon at 1B next year? Think he's good enough to carry most of that load?
Eno Sarris
12:54
Yes.
Ray Liotta as Shoeless Joe
12:56
Brad Boxberger to the Diamondbacks.
Eno Sarris
12:56
I wonder if this means Colome is staying.
Big Cheese
12:56
What are your best predictions for where Ohtani and Sanchez end up?
Eno Sarris
12:56
Dodgers. Sanchez? Stanton? SF.
Wardo

Should I actually care about the Founders CBS release tomorrow?  I know it was always a whale because they hadn't bottled it in years, but if I'm being honest i never really loved KBS that much.
Eno Sarris
12:57
KBS so hot. I can't do lines any more.

12:57
Ohtani is going to bust pitching and become a decent, 110 WRC+ type corner outfielder.
