Keith Law is always pro NY or LA
Keith Law

right, those are the same city
christ, how tiny is your world view if you think someone is biased towards NY and LA

Kevin Alcantara basically had the same season at a higher level this year as last year. Is it just a matter of time before he breaks out? Is getting stronger really the key, or does the hit tool need to improve?
Keith Law
2:11
I like the trend but yes, I think there is (and needs to be) some more strength. He's gained muscle and improved his body control and coordination so the swing is far more consistent. He still has room for 20+ more pounds and that should be the kind that leads to power.

Hey, that's pretty impressive. I hope I move that well at that age.

In response to the question about our gerontocracy, thanks for not advocating for term limits that just shift power to bureaucrats, lobbyists, and career staff. At least voters have the option to vote for somebody else (especially in Senate races that can't be gerrymandered)
Keith Law
2:12
Agreed. Term limits are a bad solution.

All signs are pointing towards Steve Cohen finally being able to hire David Stearns.  What do you see him being able to do with all of the resources the Mets (finally) have at their disposal?
Keith Law
2:13
I mean, the Mets went out and spent a bunch of money last winter and that didn't help. They've drafted extremely well over the last decade. What did Stearns do while running the Brewers that would apply to the Mets?

KLaw I was totally kidding about Kretschmar playing off that one from earlier.

oh sorry, I often can't tell when questions are sarcastic on here.

No idea whether the pizza is any good or not, but its great to see customers supporting Dragon Pizza and standing up to that A$$hole.
Keith Law
2:15
Yep. Nobody likes a bully.

I'd much rather hang out in the Delaware beach towns than the Jersey ones.
Keith Law
2:15
Agreed. Visit The Station on Kings in Lewes for lunch and take it to a picnic on the beach.

OK, I went a little long this week since it had been ages since my last chat. Thanks so much for all of your questions. My column on guys I was wrong about should run next week, followed by my minor league player of the year column, and then my hypothetical awards ballots in the final week of the season. Stay safe.
