Keith Law

I haven't, mostly because I feel like the original has so much replay value.
Alex
1:40
Just got an airfryer.  Do you have one?  Any good recipies to share?
Keith Law
1:40
I don't. When I fry food I use oil, because that's what it means to fry something.
Greg

Give that MLB still has its anti-trust exemption and given that the MLB commissioner is now basically a cudgel for the owners and has not been a "steward of the game" since Faye Vincent... Should there be some kind of special case where a non-owner/congressional body picks or vets any new MLB commissioner?
Keith Law
1:41
How does that work? MLB is a private business. Do you want the government picking the CEOs of other private businesses?
Pei

What do you think of the Altuve walk-off strange behavior controversy? Seems to me that the evidence of any buzzer stuff is flimsy at best but it is apparent to me that he probably wanted to hide something (that isn't a tattoo)
Keith Law
1:41
Not a fan of conspiracy theories.
Josh in DC
1:41
Do you think it could EVER be plausible for fans -- facing a situation like Boston's fans in this off-season -- to organize a boycott, however minor, that would get an owner's attention? 40,000 unsold tickets, with $100 of spending per fan, is $4 million in lost revenues.
Keith Law
1:42
No, it'll never happen. I'm not sure the typical owner would even notice $4 million in lost revenues.
Altuve's Lower Back Tattoo
1:42
Of Noelvi Marte, Orelvis Martinez and Erick Pena, who's the best player 2023 and beyond
Keith Law
1:42
One is on my top 100.
Kretin
1:44
How bad is the injury to JT Ginn?
Keith Law
1:44
We have no idea yet, but 1) it was a high-effort delivery in HS and 2) this is another example of why HS pitchers drafted high should take the money.
I don't even think Mississippi State misused him - it's just that pitchers get hurt, even when handled carefully, even if their mechanics are (supposedly) "clean."
Keith too
1:45
You ever watch WWE, UFC or Boxing?
Keith Law
1:45
LOL.

1) Austin Martin
2 Spencer Torkelson
3 Nick Gonzales
4 Emerson Hancock   This my rankings in baseball draft 2020? which one has highest upside?
Keith Law
1:46
Gonzales isn't in that group if we're talking upside. Martin definitely has the most upside of the group, and he'd be 1 on my draft board right now, but that doesn't necessarily make him the best player.
Vincent Adultman
1:46
Do you think Eziquiel Duran can stay at 2B? If he can't, can he move to third?
Keith Law
1:46
He can stay at 2b.
Dark Johnny
1:46
Any chance Frankie Montas breaks out to be a frontline starter?
Keith Law
1:46
Never saw him as a starter.
Don D
1:47
Keith, I'd love to hear your take on Jordan Walker, I've seen some HUGE comparisons but others have him pegged as a mid-1st. What do you think of him?
Keith Law
1:47
Have not seen him yet but I do not hear mid-first on him at all.
Dark Johnny
1:47
Can you be a good MLB starter without a viable changeup in the arsenal?
Keith Law
1:47
IMO, no. Changeup or splitter.
Eric
1:47
Would you vote for Bernie Sanders against Donald Trump in November?
Keith Law
1:47
Yes.
UU
1:47
Do you ever wonder if these chats are like a few100 people just using different names?
Keith Law
1:47
I can see it's not, but even so, that would be fine.
Lane
1:47
Do you always read the intro?
Keith Law
1:47
I do. I may not read the middle, though.
Deke
1:48
If you're Texas, what are you doing with center field this season?
Keith Law
1:48
Probably passing a law to eliminate abortion rights.
Oh, did you mean the Rangers?
addoeh

What are your Girl Scout cookie rankings?  For me, 1. Samoas 2. Tagalongs  3. Thin Mints (especially frozen).
Keith Law
1:49
Samoas and Tagalongs are 1-2 and that's it. I don't eat any of the others. I can eat an entire sleeve of Thin Mints and feel like I didn't eat anything, which I think is really weird.
Bill
1:49
Will you be doing an extra (or just early) chat on Monday? I believe that's when you top 100 prospect rankings comes out.
Keith Law
1:50
Not Monday but some time next week. I will still be finishing the NL West org reports Monday and also I have some life stuff to deal with that I've been putting off to finish the prospect rankings.
Jay

Klaw, I get the sense that “socialism” is going to be the scare word of 2020 and despite the average American not understanding what it means, it will cost Bernie the election. I much prefer Warren but I don’t see her winning the nomination. How do you feel?
