Avi Garcia for Hunter Pence + Prospect(s)? Frees up cap space for SFG to get a CF and Avi has more upside, 2 years control.
Eno Sarris
12:26
Maybe but I don't like Avi Garcia much. So much about his body, no big change in approach, ton of luck on ground balls, and wasn't there a picture of him getting big again this offseason?

Do you think it would have been smarter for the Padres to sign Eduardo Nunez for 2 years to play SS, rather than trading for 1 year of Galvis?
Eno Sarris
12:26
I did not get the Galvis thing at all.
Kevin Mick Latchy

Who else throws a pitch similar to Joe Musgrove's 1-seam sinker?
Eno Sarris
12:26
I know Luke Weaver and Lance Lynn do!
One learned it from the other.

who is your favorite pitcher of all time?
Eno Sarris
12:27
John Smoltz. Johan Santana. Jason Schmidt. Justin Verlander. Tim Lincecum.

In your mind, what team remains the most logical landing place for Mike Moustakas?
Eno Sarris
12:31
If Yanks have the money... They at around 176, so if they can get him for 15-18 a year, they might get him. I'm sure he wants more. He's got the second best projected WAR among FAs... Mets aren't going to spend like that, probably. Cardinals as a dark horse? What do the Twins have left to spend after a starter?
Weird how the market just dried up for him.
Long division
12:32
Which division will have the closest race this year?
Eno Sarris
12:32
AL East? NL Central could be sneaky close.
Biggus Richardus

What to do with Vince Velazquez?  In a rebuild, but need pitching over everything else.
Eno Sarris
12:33
Hold one more year! Could also be a lights out closer. Neris is good but didn't lock that down.
David

Time for a terrible and completely ruthless question because life is always unfair - if you had to choose only one, would you keep beer or baseball in your life?
Eno Sarris
12:34
Might have an answer for you soon.

Dave leaves and all of a sudden no one shows up for their chats (except you and the RG guys). Its like theres a substitute teacher all week at Fangraphs. Movie time!
Eno Sarris
12:35
Movie time!

Whats your expectation for Cody Bellinger this year? How much 2nd year regression should we expect?
Eno Sarris
12:36
Dude is young. I hope for K% progression.
Jay

What do you make of Rafael Devers?  Top 10 3B?  Or just another overhyped red sox prospect?
Eno Sarris
12:36
Love him. Wish he hit more fly balls, but aging curves say he should hit more fly balls, and I love his combination of contact and power in his first try.
BT

If fantasy sites like CBS can program Ohtani as a two-way player, why not just open it up for all pitchers to be hitter eligible?
Eno Sarris
12:36
Because very few people want that.

Jeff Passan's recent article on MLBPA
Eno Sarris

It was good. For those blaming sabermetrics and the fact that teams are gradually valuing contracts the same way, I just ask why there would be such a stark difference this year over last year? Sabermetrics just wants efficient use of funds, if one type of player is overvalued, there should be another that gets the money instead. I think it's more likely that the penalties in the CBA are working and the three big teams that would have signed big contracts by now are all taking a pause on this offseason.

True or false: the trade package for Josh Harrison will be better than the one for McCutchen.
Eno Sarris
12:38
False.
Oddball Herrera

Not one to yell bias often, but do you think sports media at large is catering to Yankees fans (and setting unrealistic expectations) just a little by exaggerating the likelihood that Darvish is going to sign a discount contract (Cashman's 90 million is a joke, some outlets seemed to take it seriously...) or that they will somehow offload Ellsbury's horrible contract? Google Yu Darvish and it's all Dodgers and Yankees, who both seem like huge longshots practically speaking due to luxury tax concerns.
Eno Sarris
12:39
Come on Twins, get it.

Im turning 40 in a month. Am I still allowed to go to a dubstep show this weekend?

Eno, can you help me get a group together to bid on Smuttynose, which is going up for auction?
Eno Sarris
12:42
I got five on it
