What's your take on Ohtani's cost in ottoneu? I initially put a $20-25 band on him at first pass, but now I'm wondering if I'm at least $10-15 low after reading reports...
Eno Sarris
12:02
I dunno. I mean, I'm excited, you're excited, he just had elbow surgery last year and probably can't throw more than 150 innings. I think James Paxton level is about right.

What's your favourite type of cheese? Don't say melted...
Eno Sarris

Just to like, pick up and eat? Emmenthaler, Gruyere -- swiss.

What's your snack food of choice?
Eno Sarris
12:03
I try not to snack since I eat sandwiches and drink beer.

Tyler Chatwood is now interesting, yes?
Eno Sarris
12:04
He always was, but he's more fantasy interesting this year. Still a final pitcher type guy. Have a casual over under bet on his ERA at 3.75 with Zimm.

Given the choice do you prefer prospects who have a high ceiling but low chance of making it or lower ceiling but almost certain to get there?
Eno Sarris
12:04
I go for floor.

I'm getting married in May - and I can't think of a song for the Mother/Son dance. Any ideas from you or these luders here?
Eno Sarris
12:04
We did Talking Heads because of the Eno connection and the fact that both sets of parents liked them. Dunno if you have that type of music available to you with your parents.

Eno, what would you put the chances of Luis Castillo becoming a top 10 pitcher at? I know Sporer thinks he's top 5 now, but I'm looking for a clear-eyed view.
Eno Sarris
12:05
Biggest problem is command. Might have some fits and starts like a Carrasco type, that's the type of comp I see.

Is Gary Sanchez the best catcher in baseball?
Eno Sarris
12:05
Offensively, yes.
Phil

Choose 4,  Trout, Goldy, Altuve, Sale, G Sanchez
Eno Sarris
12:05
First four I guess. Jeez.

Eddie Rosario - you a believer in his ability to be a top LF this year in fantasy?
Eno Sarris
12:06
He actually added launch angle late in the season, among league leaders in added angle. Something about his approach leaves me cold, but he seems athletic and has a job...

If you called the shots how would you handle Josh Hader this season?
Eno Sarris
12:07
Start him.
Craig

As currently constructed, who wins a 7 game series, Yankees or Astros?
Eno Sarris
12:08
All of us. And, if they all healthy, maybe the Yankees?
Rob

Dustin Fowler had that horrible knee injury last year.  Being that he is fast, if he gets the cf job, what kind of sb totals are realistic?
Eno Sarris
12:08
He just hasn't been such a volume guy in the minors. I'd be conservative and give him 20.
Shawn

Which fringe contender can help themselves the most by signing one of the big FA? I'm thinking Mil or Win w/ Darvish or Arrieta
Eno Sarris
12:09
Or Minnesota, or is that "win" maybe. Yeah the Twins made it far without a staff, a pitcher would be good, but so would like three more.
I mean, yes, they did have Trevor Hildenberger.

Eno, just so you know, if you leave fangraphs to do a beer thing full time I can and will punch you in the dick. You won’t even see it coming. I’ll just be all like, “Hey Eno, what’s the capital of Thailand?” and before you can answer I’ll just uppercut ya right in the donger
Eno Sarris
12:10
Won't be a beer thing, I promise!

Would the Pirates be open to trading Felipe Rivero or do you think he stays put for now?
Eno Sarris
12:11
For a ransom maybe. But, judging from their returns on their deals, they went for guys that are in the bigs or close and have years of control. Seeing those Steamer projections for cole and Musgrove, I think they are high fiving that they just basically got Cole back plus a third baseman and more years of control. Just a guess.

When does ATC come out?
Eno Sarris
12:12
Soon. They're good projections. I have an early run of the AL in my hands now.
Mel
12:12
Do you foresee a players strike?
Eno Sarris
12:12
I foresee strife, dunno about strike.
Jimmy

We know there are a lot of factors slowing down this year's free agent market.  One theory I have not read about on this sight is perhaps the escalating asking prices are an economic bubble of sorts, and we are seeing that bubble start to deflate.  Thoughts?
Eno Sarris
12:13
Is this because they're worried about TV deals? I think they just signed TV deals. Dunno, the income part of the equation doesn't seem to have any warts, it's mostly just the paying out part.
