KG cant believe you lived/worked in two of the best food cities in the country and like wet meat noodles that much

Jon Becker

10:47

That's not fair to Cincinnati chili! It's wet meat noodles WITH TOO MUCH CINNAMON

Ian Swirka

10:47

Is Cincinnati chili more chili than turkey bacon is bacon?

Dan Szymborski

Thanks for adding “terrific” as an option. Really been trying to up my usage.

Kevin Goldstein

10:47

We watch a lot of 70s TV and it's used all the time and needs to rebound.

Dan Szymborski

10:47

I swear, I didn't even start any of the chili discussions this time. I just attract them.

Hugh Duffy

Cincinnati Chili is terrific. It begets terror.

Kevin Goldstein

10:47

You guys sure are conservative when it comes to liking new foods.

Two Dads Playing Catch

10:47

Do you even like chili Dan

Dan Szymborski

10:48

Steak. Chili peppers. Seasoning. Masa harina. Water. That's all.

This has been brutal to watch as a Yankees fan. They are showing all the flaws they've had all season.

Kevin Goldstein

10:48

They won 92 games as a highly flawed team, it's not like they're BAD or something.

LFC Mike

If you put Cincinnati chili between two pieces of unhinged bread ( key being unhinged) you have????

I know I follow too many baseball writers on Twitter when I know exactly how bad the wifi at Fenway is

Kevin Goldstein

10:49

Once the game hits the three-hour mark, they'll move on to complaining about that.

What could the Twins actually get for Buxton? His value is so volatile

Dan Szymborski

10:50

The upside is just so tantalizing that someone will pay, I think

SucramRenrut

10:50

Can we unsubscribe from Chili content and still get baseball? Is there an extra membership level for that?

Kevin Goldstein

10:50

But the volatility will definitely reduce the offers.

Dan Szymborski

10:50

Naturally!

But the offers will be real.

I really wanted to see Matt Brash down the stretch for the Mariners, wonder why they never used him. Do you think they may have seen something in his bullpens they didn't like?

Jon Becker

10:51

They just didn't play any blowouts and they weren't going to throw him into the fire like that

Matt

10:51

Does it make sense for the Angels to spend money on re-signing Raisel Iglesias or should that money be directed towards starting pitching?

Kevin Goldstein

10:51

I think it makes a lot of sense to pay a ton for a closer when you think you are going to have a lot of games to close.

KG- you ever stay at the Marriott Icon downtown Houston? My favorite hotel in the league with a great scout rate.

Dan Szymborski

10:52

whoever spends the most in the last 3 innings wins!

Alex Rodriguez just told the Yankees and Red Sox not to bother being smart just “just keep to your superpowers, which is tremendous resources.”

Kevin Goldstein

10:52

Not once. Astros were pretty cheap on hotels, but I often got a killer rate at the JW Marriott four blocks away, which is a GREAT hotel.

10:53

Loaisiga has GREAT stuff, but man has he been erratic tonight.

10:54

Kevin why Correa a better fit for NYY over say Seager?

Kevin Goldstein

10:54

Much better defender.

Travis

10:56

Do you think Correa's defensive metrics are right on, or is he even better than that? I'm also skeptical of defensive metrics, but can't really argue his this year

Kevin Goldstein

10:56

I still find defensive metrics highly flawed.

Guest

Would you have rather Moncada, Jimenez, and Robert or Guerrero, Bichette, and Biggio?
