What percentage of leaks from front offices are authorized/known by the higher ups versus an employee doing so on their own?
Kevin Goldstein
1:28
15/85 is my no real thought gut reaction. I think some teams use the media better than others, and many don't try to, to be fair.

Ok, folks. We enter our final moments together this afternoon.
That sounded WAY more dramatic than it is.

Thoughts Correa's Jeter comments? I love it personally, and I can't wait to see the Yankees fans reactions if they sign him.
Kevin Goldstein

I don't know . . . I haven't really thought about it much. Wherever he signs, he'll be loved by the first week of April.

How many 80-grade tools exist in the minors today?
Kevin Goldstein
1:31
Quite a few, including many who will never see the big leagues.

Re. the Reds, understood, but isn't it in the interests of most of the other owners for more teams to be competitive? I realize it's not necessarily true for each individual owner, but collectively it seems to me driving up franchise values via sales is in their interest.
Kevin Goldstein

Yeah . . . long-term thinking is quite frequently not something MLB and the owners are especially good at.

What's next for flamethrower Josh James?
Kevin Goldstein
1:33
He'll get plenty of chances, and at some point have a good year or two.

What was it like dealing with the Angels knowing Arte was lurking in the background of any move?
Kevin Goldstein
1:34
If you are on the other side, you really can't let that kind of thing effect you. You just conduct your negotiations and read/react from there.

Ok folks, I gotta go research a player and some other things, but thanks for all the great questions. The FanGraphs audience always brings it and I have a blast doing these.
