We're merely a couple weeks from that glorious phase of the offseason
Paulie Walnuts
7:25
Outlook/ prediction on Trent Grisham? Chances he becomes a solid contributor to the Padres? Player comparisons?
Connor Byrne
7:26
I'll always answer a question from the great Paulie Walnuts. I'll say 110 wRC+/2.0 WAR for Grisham next season.
JuanSoto=goat
7:27
Juan soto is better than acuna
Connor Byrne
7:27
I'd take Acuna, but Soto's pretty damn amazing in his own right
Trader Rick
7:27
straight up Moncada for Arenado. Thoughts??
Connor Byrne
7:27
White Sox aren't doing it
Bobby Baccalieri
7:28
Think it was maybe a year or so too soon for the Jays to splurge on a high-priced SP?
Connor Byrne
7:29
I'm glad so many Sopranos characters are reading this chat. I wouldn't have paid Ryu that in their shoes. At the same time, I'm at the point where I applaud teams for trying at this point, considering how the previous couple offseasons went.
(maybe I can say "at this point" some more)

The Twins are seriously going into this season without upgrading their starting pitching staff?
Connor Byrne
7:31
They tried. They just couldn't reel in a Wheeler, MadBum or Ryu, so they went w/ low-cost SP additions and doubled down on destroying teams w/ their offense by inking Donaldson
Harmon K
7:32
Buxton plays 100 games. Take the over or under?
Connor Byrne
7:32
More Twins. I love Buxton, so I hope it's over. He's recovering well from his injury, per a report the other day.
Mike's On
7:33
Francesca finally gets his change to manage with the Mets, yay or nay?
Connor Byrne
7:33
Mike Francesa invented sports, OK? He can have whateva job he wants, OK? Back afta this ...
Scott Borras
7:34
When is KB’s arbitrator going to rule? 4+ years geez!
Connor Byrne
7:34
Everyone wants an answer to this. It's been three months.
Bob
7:35
i think that was Tony DeFrancesco, Mets AAA mgr...
Connor Byrne
7:35
Isn't "Mike's On" the title of Francesa's show?
Jaffe rhymes with Taffy
7:36
What would you do if you had an Astros player on your team that was part of 2017?
Connor Byrne
7:36
Nothing.
Cashman
7:36
Urshela really this good or will I need andujar to reclaim the job?
Connor Byrne
7:37
I'm skeptical, though Urshela did make meaningful changes to his game & Statcast gave him good marks. But his lack of a track record's another reason not to sell low on Andujar.
West Coast Mets Fan
7:37
Bob is wrong, Mike's on was referring to Fatcessa
Connor Byrne
7:37
Thought so.
Question15
7:38
is there going to be another lockout? Or is this yeara free agency making the mlbpa less aggresive?
Connor Byrne
7:38
The quick-moving offseason has made a work stoppage a lot less likely, in my opinion.
TheTrotsky
7:39
The Yanks rotation looks pretty good but what about how bad their BA with RISP was last year. That cost them the ALCS(moreso than a buzzing transistor).
Connor Byrne
7:39
The Yankees easily led MLB in wRC+ in high-leverage situations
Shrosen
7:40
connor Byrne hates the mets. what say YOU?
Connor Byrne
7:40
Jerry Seinfeld loves them, so how bad can they really be?
Check's In The Mail
7:42
Best "Don" to ever play MLB?
Connor Byrne
7:42
Drysdale? Newcombe?
Paws
7:43
Prediction for Michael Fulmer?
Connor Byrne
7:43
He's probably not coming back until June/July, so it's hard to say.
Don
7:43
Mattingly!!!
Connor Byrne
7:43
Him too!
Mike Trout
7:44
should i be worried going into the next season?
Connor Byrne
7:45
Maybe you'll post a 175 wRC+ instead of 180. That's the only thing to worry about. (I realize the question's about those stupid HGH rumors)
