I *think* that was the first time that Fox has cut into the crowd to show the chop

Chatz

11:26

I think FOX has tried real hard not to show the chop.

Ben Clemens

11:26

haha jinx!

Travis definitely gets my vote for 'best baseball player who really doesn't look that athletic or like he's even having a good time being there.'

11:27

I do wonder what the internal memos regarding how much they broadcast the chop are.

Ben Clemens

11:27

TBS was going whole hog

Scuffy mcgee

11:27

I'm on fire tonight. I hope you guys are getting the same amount of enjoyment from my comments as I am seeing them being published

Dan Szymborski

11:27

I would imagine they try not to write anything down about that

Ben Clemens

11:27

whoever just went back and voted 'yes' to our no-hitter poll, you're wild and I love it

Dan Szymborski

11:27

Businesses should be smart enough that you only discuss controversial things in person with both people being quiet and using white boards.

Alf

11:28

How surprised are you that Manfred said that he is essentially in favor of the chop?

Ben Clemens

11:28

Like, as shocked as can be?

And also disappointed

Morbo

11:28

"I would imagine they try not to write anything down about that" Dan you just made lawyers everywhere very proud of you

Ben Clemens

11:29

As they taught us at Goldman, before you put anything in an email, imagine how it would look if you read it aloud in a Congressional hearing

Dan Szymborski

11:29

His answer was basically "This is the answer to the question that I hope will get people to stop asking me this question and talk about something else."

Morbo

11:29

Ben, how are you still capable of being disappointed by Manfred?

Ben Clemens

11:29

Because I'm a dummy

Hugh Duffy

11:29

Never email when a call will do. Never call when a nod is enough. Never nod when silence does the job.

Luke Hooper

11:30

Wise words.

Dan Szymborski

11:30

DEAR TACO BELL, CAN I TRANSFER MY TACO CREDIT TO A TACO VENDOR WHO HAS TACOS I WANT TO EAT? THX, DAN

Luke Hooper

11:30

Maybe I'm crazy but the Bregman injury talk has me thinking that he's constantly grimacing when they show his face.

Russ

11:31

Is Heredia really that much of a defensive upgrade over Duvall in CF?

Ben Clemens

11:31

No, but Duvall is more comfortable in right and Soler is not good

Jeremy

11:31

Sell your taco credit to someone who likes Taco Bell Dan.

Dan Szymborski

11:31

Who wants to invest in my cryptocurrency that can only be liquidated in tacos?

Ben Clemens

11:31

TaCoin

Morbo

11:32

Taco bell is definitely a guilty pleasure of mine

Fire Ken Tremendous

11:32

I bet the Moon could talk David Ortiz into that Dan

Dan Szymborski

11:32

Just wait until the sentencing

Luke Hooper

11:32

Didn't even have time to get hyped for a big Yordan at bat.

Dan Szymborski

11:32

OH GOD SMOLTZ STOP

Quarantino Martinez

11:33

Lots of pop ups to Riley

Russ

11:33

I swear to god if Smoltz talks about the shift one more time...

Smoltz talking about the shift. Everybody drink.

Jeremy

11:33

There is no way that TaCoin doesn't already exist.

Quarantino Martinez

11:33

It's like scalping tacos in the taco bell parking lot

Guest

11:33

I remember being a summer associate at a law firm. First rule from the partner I worked with: NEVER email me; just come talk face to face

Morbo

11:33

Tacos are probably my favorite food so I don't really see a problem with a taco only crypto

Ben Clemens

11:33

it would be an NFT; I don't want my tacos to be fungible
