I am not a fan as of now. I have my own methods I trust. I do know that FIP was a better ERA estimator for 2015 to 2016 than DRA

Best games you saw in person?

I was at the 2007 Wild Card game between the Rockies and Padres. Hard to top that one.

2014 Wild Card Royals vs A's

Beat you

Non-baseball, I was also at the Celtics huge comeback in Game 3 of the 2002 Eastern Conference Finals over the Nets.

Recent edition - I was at Isaiah Thomas' 52-point game a couple of weeks ago.

9:55

The Rockies comeback was better.

Down 2 in extras vs Trevor Hoffman

What are your thoughts on Mazara? Does he take a step forward this season or next into stardom?

Paul Swydan

9:55

Lot of Mazara questions tonight!

Jeff Zimmerman

9:56

Didn't we answer this already?

Paul Swydan

9:56

I think he'll improve, but without a significant jump in his OBP, stardom is not in his future.

Did we?

BoJack Horseman

9:56

I'm still the best show on Netflix. I'm hilarious and also a deep exploration of depression and self-destructiveness.

Paul Swydan

9:57

Okey dokey.

Jeff Zimmerman

Netflix smackdown ... we have it all in the After Dark Chat

Dr Evil

How close will Machado and Harper get to.... ONE BILLION DOLLARS?

Jeff Zimmerman

9:58

I don't think they will but they will be north of a half billion.

Paul Swydan

9:59

Not as close as you'd probably like, Dr.

Stranger Things was great, Luke Cage was a real pleasant surprise

Paul Swydan

10:00

Been trying to convince the Mrs. that we should watch Luke Cage.

Tim

10:00

Why hasn't Luke Hochevar been signed? I thought he was good?

Paul Swydan

10:00

You hear that Jeff? Someone thinks Hochevar is good.

Jeff Zimmerman

10:01

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome. Hasn't thrown yet

He was decent as a closer. Horrible as a starter.

Paul Swydan

10:01

He'll eventually get signed when he's ready.

bob

10:01

Paul Swydan

10:02

Oh, the correct answer is Mike Cameron.

So congrats to the 53 of you who got it right.

Highway 61

10:03

Is Chris Carter really going to play in Japan?

Paul Swydan

10:03

I dunno, but I would if I was him. Get paid to see a whole new country? Sounds awesome to me.

Jeff Zimmerman

10:03

He'll follow the money.

Paul Swydan

10:04

As for us, we're going to follow our noses, which are pointed squarely at our beds. Thanks for hanging out, as always. We'll see you next week!

Jeff Zimmerman
