That's just science.

Nice answer to that question, Jon.  LOL
Guy who asks the dinner question
5:23
is it over padresbros?
Davy Andrews
5:25
Just off the top of my head, I would say that it is 92.9% over.
Eventually....
5:25
...MLB will get it and allow me to upgrade my streaming service that I've paid for every year since it started during playoff time, and let me watch postseason baseball, right?
Davy Andrews
5:25
I would not venture to put a probability on that.
5:26
WAIT A SECOND. They're putting Avatar 2 back in theaters?
5:27
My wife and I went to see that on a whim. Just as a, "Sure, how bad could it be?" kind of thing.
We were not prepared for the answer to that question.

Who do we need to kill to get regular Davy chats?
Davy Andrews
5:28
I don't think murder is the way to get this done.
But I can confirm that I really enjoy the chats.
Tom Ess
5:27
They're putting a LOT of library content back in cinemas
Wes
5:29
Ok, no murder to get more chats. Which crime would do it? Jaywalking? Retail theft?
Davy Andrews
5:30
I imagine harassment might be most effective. But please don't do that.

Oh man the big pitch clock incident in a playoff game, it's here
Davy Andrews
5:31
Ok, that seems like a reasonable solution. I don't know if it hews to the letter of the law, but that would've been a really unfair situation.
Guest
5:31
And it is a glorious mess

auto strike is wild
they should remove the pitch clock in the post season
Davy Andrews
5:32
I go back and forth on this, but I think I disagree. Jon, you have thoughts?
Guest
5:32
Hot take? Your timeout as a batter should just be burned if you still have your timeout and do a violation.
Davy Andrews
5:32
That's not a crazy idea.

Honestly, managers running is one of my favorite things. If FanGraphs would let me do a weekly managers and pitchers trundling out onto the field update, I would absolutely do it.
Nick Perry

Pitch clock is amazing. Including in the postseason. That was a reasonable resolution
AvatarJon Becker
5:34
That'll do it for me, everyone, enjoy the rest of the slate tonight!
Davy Andrews
5:35
By Jon!

Davy, your idea for managers running update is great, but only with StatCast data
Davy Andrews
5:35
Now we're cooking.

what does ZiPS say the odds of a meteor striking the bronx is
Davy Andrews
5:36
As I almost certainly live within the blast radius, I'm hoping the odds are pretty low.

The rules should be the same in the regular season and post-season, IMO. It's my biggest gripe with the Manfred man.
Wes
5:36
I think the pitch clock is even more important during the postseason. I don't want to watch four 4-hour games per day
Tony
5:36
Go Cubs Go!
Davy Andrews
5:36
I'm glad that you're happy, Tony.
Mr Trivia

soooo one battle after another?
Davy Andrews

I am excited to see it and I have heard great things.
