OK folks, I am about to have a toddler in my midst so must sign off. Thank you, colleagues and readers, for the lively conversation!
Matt

3 minutes of radio silence, eh?
Carson Cistulli

See you, Jay.

True or false: We should start using "batsman" instead of "batter"
Eric A Longenhagen
4:44
False, Bob Kane is a litigious person.

Sorry, I'm eating chips, which are loud but you can't hear them.
Eric A Longenhagen
4:44
What kind of chips?

What's the real plural of Batman? Batmen? Batsman? Batsmen?

Multigrain tortilla chips with tomatillo/avocado salsa
The salsa isn't loud, but it is delicious.

Who is the best player with a first name for a last name? I'm guessing the answer isn't Ian Desmond. Is it Jackie Bradley?
Meg Rowley
4:46
Lorenzo Cain?
Carson Cistulli
4:48
He's a lot better than his Tony Abel, certainly.
Lance Biggerstaff
4:48
Meg, how many guys named Cain do you know
Meg Rowley
4:48
At least one very famous one

Why is machado's fielding at short so much better than when he was with the o's? is it just getting used to it again?
Guest
4:48
Cain, brother of Abel seems pretty famous
Daniel
4:49
Bryce Harper
Meg Rowley

My take is that it is partly adjustment and partly that his defense with the O's probably wasn't quite as bad as the metrics suggested. He might also be a bit better positioned.

The real question is - what is a group of batsmen called.  I suggest Strike
Andrew
4:50
Gerritt Cole
Davy
4:50
Gerrit Cole!
John Thacker
4:50
Gerrit Cole?
Carson Cistulli

That was 0-2 to Blackmon and ended in a walk.
Walker Buehler, Homer Bailey... what are the other worst names for a pitcher?
5 Run Homer
4:50
I bet you there’s some toddler running around named Trout
BJOGC

Grant Balfour
Meg Rowley

The one thing we millennials have failed to kill is dumb names
Ryan
4:51
Bob Walk, for sure.
Grafsikov
4:52
A group of batsmen is a Club
Mike
4:52
As long as his evil twin Balker Wuehler doesn't show up
Meg Rowley
4:53
The queue is 95% names right now
Matt
4:54
A group of batsmen is a lineup. A group of pitchsmen is a staff. And a grouping of a staff and a lineup is a club*
OddBall Herrera
4:54
Ok yeah club is better
Davy
4:54
Earning the nickname Three-Finger can't have been too fun.
5 Run Homer

Is it just me or are ESPN’s constant looks into the broadcast booth annoying as hell?
Meg Rowley
4:55
It does seem a little unnecessary, given that there is baseball on the field.
