why do i remember benito santiago being so much better than his career WAR would suggest? does your neuroscience explain that one??

Eno Sarris

1:32

We don't have framing numbers in there, he did his thing when power was everywhere, and you can't put a number on his awesome quotes and stances behind the plate.

Yandy Diaz owns a .373 OBP projection from Steamer, puts him ahead of Correa, Turner, Betts, Altuve. How?!

Eno Sarris

1:33

They started including exit velocity in projections?

I mean, I know they did, but I don't know if that explains it all.

Tim Anderson still can't take a walk and his fielding regressed in 2017. Should I be worried?

Eno Sarris

1:34

He had a tough year -- best friend died -- and that won't be part of his game when he's good. I think he'll be an aggressive hitter with power and contact and good defense, but never very patient.

Justin

1:34

How much stock do you put into starting pitching WAR?

Eno Sarris

1:35

I think, other than defense, it's where we have the most work to do.

Lonnie Smith was 35 war player. really good hitter.

To what degree does each pitcher contribute to pitch framing numbers. In other words, do certain pitchers get enough breaks over the year to move the needle a bit? Keuchel probably makes his catchers look good.

Eno Sarris

1:36

That's included in DRA and the BP suite of framing metrics!

not sure about everyone else but i get way too excited to see that blue message pop up on the screen

Preferred taco option - street (corn tortilla, onion & cilantro) or the wrong way (flour tortilla, lettuce, cheese)

Eno Sarris

1:37

used to be wrong but then I moved back to Cali

Next time u go to MLB network studios, will u please poke Mad Dog in the chest and call him a clown?

The best was when Andy McCullough asked him "why are you yelling at me."

Dave Kingman

1:37

Fantasy thoughts on N. Castellanos for the upcoming season? Have him as a cheap keeper option and thinking his 25HR & 100 RBI at 3rd is pretty good at that position.

Eno Sarris

1:37

Last year at third, probably, not sure if there's much ceiling left.

Re: Moose - Yankees?

Eno Sarris

1:39

They only have like $12 million to spend. Bet he wants more than the Bruce deal.

51/6th: go to Omar's on 54th street. Best middle eastern food around

Bronson Arroyo and Toukki for Gosselin. Bronson was injured, ie: cash component.

Eno Sarris

1:40

Oh phew I knew there was a cash part.

Billy

Seems to me everybody wants to count out Robert Gsellman? Still see promise there or not?

Eno Sarris

1:40

Great sinker, ave cutter, bad change. Change showed a bit of promise in second half. I think he'll be a reliever.

Tell Tacopocket to goto House of Brews

Eno Sarris

I used to go there! and Pony Bar but Pony Bar over there is shut down I think.

Not that I don't love it, but why/how is Barack Obama speaking at Sloan this year? Also, if you could have a local beer with Barry O in Boston, what would it be?

Eno Sarris

1:41

It's pretty cool, and I would love to see him at Night Shift.

Beer

1:41

Thoughts on session IPA's? Just a weak, cheap IPA/

Eno Sarris

1:42

Just had a Melvin MPA, which is basically that. 10/10 nose, good taste, crisp, and I can have a couple and still be on top of the kids.

not like literally
