The question is what's going on. Is it just mechanical or is it health related. I don't think that's something we can know from the outside.

Are you of the belief that "clutch" is a skill that can be possessed by certain players?
Kevin Goldstein
12:11
Yes [ducks].
Hmmm
12:11
Have you ever experienced first hand a player with the "yips"?
Kevin Goldstein
12:11
Yes, and it's just horrifying to watch.

The M's are talking about spending in FA this year... whom should they target?
Kevin Goldstein
12:12
You can't just focus on one player. There are 30 teams out there. You're probably not going to get that one target. Line up multiple targets that make the team better and go from there.

What kind of contract would you feel comfortable giving to Syndergaard this off-season?
Kevin Goldstein
12:12
I'd love to see if he's be open to a big money one-year thing with PBs to set him up for FA off a healthy year.

How does the conversation go asking a player not to bring back said GIANT snake?
Kevin Goldstein
12:14
It wasn't a player. Manager brought him in during spring training to liven things up a bit. Spring training gets to be a Groundhog Day like GRIND.

Best streamable movie you’ve seen lately? (Criterion and the increasingly niche services are options)
Kevin Goldstein
12:14
November, but it's rental only, worth the four bucks. Really enjoyed Shiva Baby on HBO Max.

We went to a MLB game with a vaccine section and they had set up rapid testing onsite for kids.

There you go. Get your shots everyone, if you haven't already. Do something good for society.

Whats the dumbest thing you’ve heard in the FO?
Kevin Goldstein
12:17
That Framber Valdez should be moved to the bullpen because he'll never start? Oh wait, I said that. Crap.

Is the worst thing about Minute Maid the wraparound scoreboard message that tells you the game is possible thanks to oil and gas?
Kevin Goldstein
12:18
I mean, is the Halliburton sign still there?

What does LA do at SS this offseason? With Trea in the fold, do they just let Seager walk?
Kevin Goldstein
12:18
I think they do . . . .
