Eno I'm traveling to the Bay Area and Santa Rosa next week. Any recommendations for things to do? (Other than the Pliny the Younger release at Russian River, already planning on going)
Eno Sarris
1:08
Too cold for actually going into the Russian River, so go to Henhouse Brewing instead. Fieldwork, Rare Barrel, Cellarmaker, Almanac are the class of the area IMO. I love walking the Mission (16th, 17th, 18th between Dolores and Mission, up and down) and love Papalote burritos (higher up in the mission). Toronado's (beer) and Rosamunde (sausage next door) in Haight Ashbury, say what's up to my pops. I love the Botanical Gardens and museums in the park. Walking the Embarcadero is fun.

I am crazy to trade DMurph and Rendon for Trea Turner in dynasty? DMurph is a utility bat for me (Altuve at 2B) and Rendon would be replaced by Devers.
Eno Sarris
1:08
Trea Turner is like a top three player this year in fantasy.

if you refrained from drinking alcohol for the month of january what would be the first beer you'd have on 2/1 (that mere mortals could find)?
Eno Sarris
1:09
Maybe some Old Rasputin? Great stout, everywhere.

Does Greg Bird hit like an above average 1st basemen this year?
Eno Sarris
1:09
Yes.

If you had to pick one player to have an Aaron Judge-like/light breakout year based solely on Statcast data, who would it be?
Eno Sarris
1:10
Maikel Franco raised his launch angle to 16 degrees in the second half, I still can't quit him.

You should take your medication daily Eno.
Eno Sarris
1:10
I did for two weeks, did a hard reset, blew on the cartridge, and then stopped. Have been good since.
Anthony

How do you feel about Haniger? 2017 the norm, late bloomer gives him more upside, or regression candidate?
Eno Sarris
1:11
The whole thing. League average type player, and that's a win.

What are the odds SFG stay under the tax bar? They are pushing right up to it and leaving zero wiggle room for in-season maneuvering.
Eno Sarris
1:11
I guess if they're good, they'll pay a better prospect than they have so far (somehow kept Beede, Shaw and Ramos) in order to make the other team pay for the player they acquire. I think they stay under.
1:12
Man I'm still loading on the tickets, getting nervous.

1. Do you count a grilled cheese as a sandwich?
Eno Sarris
1:12
Why not.
Hunky Dory

Staying away from onion, garlic, tomato sauce, and cheese?  The Italian in me just vomited.  What is life
Eno Sarris
1:12
Yeah I really can't do Italian food.

What does the SB scarcity do to the prices of the handful of potential 30SB guys (Hamilton, Gordon, T Turner, Marte)? Are they going for more of a premium than they might have relative to the cost of the MANY 30 HR guys?
Eno Sarris
1:12
Yes. 1HR != 1SB any more I would venture.
Slapshot
1:12
Was doing some cut deadline research and found a Jeff Zimmerman article that argued that catcher was the only position with positional scarcity in standard roster leagues (i.e. 2 catcher leagues).  Would you agree with him?  And if so, who would you consider as keepers below the obvious top flight guys like Posey, Contreras, and Sanchez?
Eno Sarris
1:13
In most leagues (less than 15 teams, mixed, one catcher), yes I'd just take the best bat repeatedly. Later in the auction, you may have to make a choice based on team construct, but early you take the best bat.

2. What does Eno's perfect grilled cheese contain and is the inclusion of soup required?
Eno Sarris
1:14
Gruyere, and then a cheese or two more, love getting like three cheeses in there. Sourdough. I'll allow for ketchup -- I have two boys after all -- but I don't require soup.
Rasta
1:14
Godley, Paxton, Rivero. Which two arms would you rather keep?
Eno Sarris
1:14
I like Godley a lot but the second two.
Bort
1:14
A Machado trade to Cleveland makes too much sense not to happen, right? They get Salazar + Allen/Naquin back, and then sign Moustakas to play third.
Eno Sarris
1:15
Decent. Cleveland doesn't seem to do things like that, but they might be tired of Salazar and they have outfielders, and those two are flawed.

Yo we did Simple Man for Mother/Son dance and it rocked

Will you ever be in Detroit for some type of meet and greet? The baseball probably won't be good, though there are some great breweries to grab a drink at!
Eno Sarris
1:15
I'd love to! I like that park a lot and yes, there are good breweries.
Hunky Dory

Real quick q for the nihilist in you: the meaning of life is sex, right?  Like, that’s the only scientific, biologically sound, uncontrovsial answer to the question “why are we here?” - to have as much sex as possible, no?
Eno Sarris
1:15
dammit

This is a fantasy question, but is Jorge Polanco the best sleeper (i.e., primed for a top 10 position breakout) at SS, and who else is worth considering?
Eno Sarris
1:17
Maybe. It's worth considering Orlando Arcia, though I'm not sure how much is left. Addison Russell is on my list every year.
