I'll check out their new EP. I can't remember if I listened to Talk Show when it came out - too many indie bands with Beach in their name (Beach House, Beach Fossils, Beach Slang).

I would to see either Jamey Stegmaier or Elizabeth Hargraves on the podcast to talk about Wingspan and board game design. Would be fascinating.
Keith Law

Great idea. I'll get on that.

Did anyone see this kind of season coming from Cedric Mullins?
Keith Law
1:56
I know some Orioles scouts who thought he could be a good regular but thought he was underappreciated in the org (and especially by Showalter). I don't know if any of them would have expected (waves hands around) this.

I think Soto was better this season than Harper, but it seems to me than Harper was more relevant to the Phillies winning than Soto (for example many hits that were decisive in victories in an order at bat with little contributions from his teammates). Would it be a good argument in favor of Harper’s candidacy to MVP?
Keith Law

Sure, especially with the two fairly close, although I only use that as a final arbiter when I can't decide otherwise.

Political takes are dishonest? Funny, I thought they were opinions.
Keith Law

He just means he doesn't like them.

Any idea what happened to Gleyber Torres the past two seasons?
Keith Law
1:57
Not really. I think he's a buy-low candidate for someone. But I also know that I don't know what happened.

Will Michael Kopech be a starter for the Chisox next year?  How good do you think he'll be?
Keith Law
1:57
If he starts, he'll be really good. Might take a year or two. But he'll be really good.

If you're the Yankees, you sign Correa, and then what with Peraza and Volpe? Trade Peraza when he's ML ready and trade Gleyber if Volpe turns out to be the star he looked like this year?
Keith Law
1:58
Volpe can play SS, but I'm okay with signing Correa and then either moving Volpe to 2b when he's ready OR moving Correa to third. Peraza isn't good enough to merit changing the plans around those two guys.

Trey Sweeney will be in the Yankees SS mix too.

I don't know any scouts who think he stays at shortstop.

Hi Keith, how did you manage to invite Lauren Mayberry to your podcast? How did it happen? Probably an interesting story.

Just used my network. I was thrilled to get her and she was an amazing guest, too.

OK, that's all for this week. No chat next week as I'll be out at Fall League, but I'll write up what I see there. Hope to see a few of you at the games as well! Stay safe and thank you as always for reading.
