Most recent reports say no, unless another team meets a very high asking price

Any chance of divisional realignment?   Personally I’d like to see no more east/central/west.  I’d like to see 15 teams in each league where the top three teams get in the playoffs and number four and five have the wildcard.  I’d like to see more of a balanced schedule.  Play each team in your league 9 times (14*9=126) and the other 36 games are inter league games

I think divisions will always be a part of the sport because of tradition and because it's an easier sell for success.  (It's more fun to hang a "division champs" banner than a "third place!" banner.)  I do think the schedule could be more balanced, however.  19 games against every division rival is a bit much, and it gets old year and year

Will Larry Walker join Fergie Jenkins in the Hall of Fame this summer?
Mark P
10:18
I hope so.  Walker was an amazing player who should've been in Cooperstown long ago
Willie Randolph

Do you think that recent hypothetical scenarios involving the Mets getting somebody like Betts, Arenado or Hader are overestimating the willingness and/or capacity of the Mets to make a trade like that?
Mark P
10:18
Fans always like to propose big trades for their team.  And almost no scenario can be ruled out now that we've seen the big moves Brodie Van Wagenen is willing to make

What do you think of the seeming reluctance of the O's front office to swing a deal for a big contract with a prospect attached?
Mark P
10:20
The Orioles non-tendering Villar was a clear sign that they're not interested in spending.  The "buy a prospect" strategy makes sense, but it seems like the O's are going to totally tear things down before building back up

Huge Yankees fan here.    Losing Didi and Betances HUGE mistakes.   How can they still be the favorites
Mark P
10:23
Because they didn't have Betances for basically the entire season, and had a mediocre version of Didi for four months, and the team was still incredible

Merry Christmas Mark......If I want to play where will I end up?

I have to imagine a reunion with Joe Maddon in Anaheim would be a possibility

Time to call it a night, thanks for all of the questions!  a record number submitted for a Sunday chat!
