How do you grade pitchers deliveries? You talk a lot about "bad delivery" but you never once have indicated what it is you like/dislike
Keith Law
2:45
That's utterly and completely false. When I write up players, I explain what I do and don't like about their deliveries.
2:46
If you're only reading my chats, well, the bulk of my content is on ESPN.com.

Is Tatis the most probable candidate to be a perennial MVP the next 10 years?
Keith Law
2:46
Acuna certainly gives him a run for his money there.
Ryan
2:47
What do you think the floor is for Tatis next season. 30/30 with maybe outside shot at 40/40 if he stays healthy for the whole season?
Keith Law
2:47
I wonder if they try to get him to steal a bit less so he doesn't get hurt.
J.

Weeks ago you mentioned something about the Tigers not having any all-time draft busts - care to share the reason why?
Keith Law
2:47
I didn't say that.

I'm going to a World Series game!  What city should I be hoping for?  What would be most disappointing?  -Cheers, Stu
Keith Law
2:48
I mean, hard to beat NY or LA. Oakland means you can stay in San Francisco. Don't sleep on Minneapolis which is a wonderful city, even when it's cold.
Buddy

Scherzer is still great obviously, but lefties roughed him up a bit this year. Any concern on your end?
Keith Law
2:48
Not yet. One-year platoon splits can be misleading.
Joey Joe Joe
2:48
Jakson Reetz back to being a prospect?
Keith Law
2:48
Not really.
Jeff
2:48
A lot of comparisons between Judge and Alonso - is Judge the better overall player?
Keith Law
2:48
Fully healthy, yes.

Re: Meal Prep. I used meal prep in the past to learn new recipes and/or cooking techniques. Not to use 52 weeks a year. Sometimes cookbooks can be too intimidating, it’s different when the ingredients are already there and you’re “forced” to try
Keith Law
2:49
Great point. I'm never going to shame anyone for cooking their way and not "my" way. Hell, my way is a bit over the top because I work from home and I can start dinner at 2 pm if I want.

Fan of The Good Place? Final season premier tonight!
Keith Law
2:49
I am, but haven't watched S3 yet. That's a show I have to binge ... the episode cliffhangers stress me out.

If you think billionaires should exist, something inside you is broken
Keith Law
2:50
That's not helpful either. There is actual research on the harm of income inequality, such as in rising crime rates, but simply attacking billionaires for being billionaires isn't going to change anyone's minds.

whens the last time a team had a 1-2 punch like the stros do/ are they WS faves for you?
Keith Law
2:51
I would pick them right now but I don't really think there's such a thing as a playoff "favorite" since any team that gets into the playoffs can win, and statements about any team being much more likely than another one to win a series/the whole thing are not supported by history.
Buddy
2:51
Whatever you decide, PLEASE keep these chats going next year and beyond.
Keith Law
2:51
They'll still be here, trust me.
Jeff
2:51
Is Mike Trout the best player you’ve ever seen in all your years of doing this?
Keith Law
2:51
Yes.
Mevo
2:52
If you are Theo Epstein, would you trade Biaz for luis Severino 1 for 1? Would yanks do that?
Keith Law
2:52
I wouldn't trade for Severino coming off a year where he had a significant shoulder issue.
Buddy
2:52
Doesn't "utterly" mean the same thing as "completely"?
Keith Law
2:52
Totally.
Cameron

I asked on periscope what the best restaurant in Houston was and I didn't write it down and slipped my mind. Can you remind me, please. Thanks.
Keith Law
2:52
Xochi. Get the duck and the chocolate river/rocks thing.
Jon

FWIW, I just red Tom Cotton said "no comment" on the allegation of WH trying to bury the report.  The fact that a guy like him didn't jump to "this is all a farse by the democrats to renew the mueller report" is, in my view, a little telling that this is a bigger deal.
Keith Law
2:53
That's interesting. Also, Red Tom Cotton is a pretty good nickname.
Andy
2:53
LOL@ Tigers not having draft busts. It was only 22 years ago that 1-1 in the draft was a relief pitcher.
Keith Law
2:53
Yeah and they've whiffed on a lot of high picks. Scott Moore. Jacob Turner.
Robbie
2:53
Hey Keith, appreciate the chat as always. Do you see there being anyone in the braves  minor league system with the potential to be a star outside of Pache?
