Probably this absurd lineup the Yankees have put together
SNL

Favorite SNL character who references baseball?  Have to go with Chris Farley for me.

This is a deep cut, but that sketch where Bill Hader played an alien who co-hosted a sports talk show was an underrated gem.

Hey wait, I almost missed a chance at a poll topic

Syndergaard left tonight with what the Mets say is a hamstring strain not tightness as first reported.  Assuming he'll need a DL stint do you think the Mets will go into sell mode ?
Mark P
12:39
I feel like the Mets will wait until maybe mid-July to start selling just for the sake of keeping up appearances.  And hey, maybe things turn around for them, or maybe Thor isn't on the IL for long.

But overall, they strike me as a seller

Leake to Texas a possibility?
Mark P
12:40
I'd have to imagine so, it's just a question of how much money the Rangers are willing to eat, and if Leake is himself is willing to go there (he has a full no-trade clause)
Gary F.
12:41
How has Kyle Freeland been doing down in AAA?
Mark P
12:41
In a word, badly.  A 10.13 ERA in his first two outings
Stroman
12:42
Who should trade for me?  Or should I stay and make Drake laugh?
Mark P
12:44
If it's a matter of entertaining Drake, I feel like the Raptors' success has put a perma-smile on his face for a long time to come, so Stroman can feel safe in leaving town.

Interested parties....as Connor Byrne recently observed, over two-thirds of the league have a case for acquiring Stroman

And on that note, let's call it a night.  Hope you enjoyed the Saturday Night chat, I should be back at my regular Sunday time next week.
