Jay, Kat asked over the weekend first how you were doing and second to make sure you had not shaved the mustache.
AvatarJay Jaffe

Aww, doing fine here, mustache still intact!

I was interviewed for the Donnie Baseball documentary on MLB Network but alas, this is not me. My footage seems to have been left on the cutting room floor.

The Royals-Guardians game is free to watch on MLB.tv today. Watch Witt's debut.

MLB.TV kept showing me ads when Cubs-Brewers started up again, and then it froze. Needed to reboot. Baseball gods telling me its time to switch to Guardians-Royals.

If Ben is here, the Paddack/Rogers trade article must already be in editing?

Wrote about Greinke re-signing with the Royals when it happened https://blogs.fangraphs.com/zack-greinkes-return-to-kansas-city-headli... He got roughed up by righties last year

I've had this used as bumper music a few times

A king of the ring tournament of the Fangraphs staff would have made for excellent lockout content, Dan

No but I threw out a first pitch in El Paso to Devo's "Uncontrollable Urge"
Eno Sarris' Sandwhich Induced Nightmares

Greinke is so fun.
Ben Clemens

Would have been a lot less fun if he threw that one away but man I'm excited to see him as an opening day starter again

Have said it a number of times for a number of years, but Jose Ramirez might be the most underrated player in the game.

Jay I'm sure you've answered this before but Greinke get in the hall?

"Thank you."

7 pitches, 7 strikes, 3 outs for Grienke

I assume you too Jay?

Dan, what would Ben Clemens' finisher be in 2k22?
AvatarJay Jaffe
4:15
I'd love to see him get to 3,000 strikeouts but he's already right around the JAWS standard, and like Joey Votto, has provided enough good stories that writers are going to trip over themselves voting for him. He's already earned mine.

Im about to watch the Cardinals Pirates game with my 3 year old. It's the first time he's really actually paying attention to baseball! I'm so excited!
