Connor Byrne
6:30
Without looking up his stats, I'd be inclined to put him there
Jerry Reinsdorf
6:31
Will I really let Rick Hahn spend my money?
Connor Byrne
6:31
(White Sox owner Reinsdorf, GM Hahn) - That's the big question. White Sox have never signed anyone for more than Jose Abreu's $68MM guarantee, which is astounding.
Joe Maddon
6:32
Who is my Ace, Catcher and RF in 2020?
Connor Byrne
6:32
Cole, Castro/d'Arnaud, Goodwin for the Angels
Scott
6:33
Does Byron Buxton still have chance at reaching stardom
Connor Byrne
6:33
Two Byron Buxton questions tonight! I'd argue he's just about there. Buxton just has to stay healthy, but he plays with such reckless abandon that it could continue to be difficult.
Carl
6:34
Does it make more sense for the Phillies to go after two mid rotation pieces and top bat or Cole/Strasburg and hope Hoskins bounces back?
Connor Byrne
6:35
I'd take Cole and Hoskins over 2 mid-rotation guys and a bat (unless it's someone like Rendon, which may be another story). Cole's that much of a difference maker, and Hoskins isn't someone I'd give up on by any means.
Eddie Rosario
6:36
How interested is the rest of the league in grabbing me and starting their own Bomba Squad?
Connor Byrne
6:37
Rosario can hit bombs, but he's not that valuable otherwise. Someone would bite with 2 years of team control left, though.
Scooter Gennett
6:37
I didn't even make honorable mention in your Top 50 free agents.  Geez.
Connor Byrne
6:38
Scooter was awful this year, sorry to say. We really didn't give him much consideration as a result.
Knows Pickin
6:38
Who goes after Ozuna? And will his contract be worth more than $50mil?
Steven
6:38
Padres make big moves, land Stras, trade for Thor and S Marte. Compete with the dodgers or still strides behind?
Connor Byrne
6:38
They could add all three and still be miles behind the Dodgers.
Guest
6:39
Any chance Moustakas goes to Tribe?
Connor Byrne
6:39
I like the fit if the Indians are actually willing to spend a bit. Not like they'd have to break the bank for Moose.
Nicholas Castellanos
6:40
It’s almost inevitable that I’ll be on the White Sox next season, right?
Connor Byrne
6:40
They certainly do look like the best fits. "Inevitable" could be stretching it, though.
Stalin Castro
6:40
What kind of deal do you think I will get this offseason?
Connor Byrne
6:41
Probably something in the 1/5 range for Starlin the ex-Marlin
John
6:41
bryant for Thor? Who says no?
Connor Byrne
6:41
Cubs
PadSquad
6:41
Do you have a favorite prospect?
Connor Byrne
6:42
Not for a while. I was a huge Mookie Betts fan back when he was in, like, Single-A (thanks for making me look good, Mookie). But I can't really remember many since then (probably because they busted)
Coppy
6:43
Is AA going to get fired too
Connor Byrne
6:44
Everybody's probably going to get fired eventually. For now, though, Braves GM Alex Anthopoulos is not getting fired.
Frank1
6:44
Could we possibly see a change of GM with the Angels this off-season? Knowing the relationship is strain with the firing of Brad
Connor Byrne
6:45
Angels GM Billy Eppler is very likely entering a make-or-break season in 2020, especially if they spend on a guy like Cole.
MPrck
6:45
With 75.1 war should not Lou Whitaker be a lock for HOF ?
Connor Byrne
6:46
Yeah, probably, but I'm done trying to figure out how the HOF voters make their decisions.
Chris
6:46
Is David Freese a possibility for Milwaukee in some sort of Platoon role at 1B/3B? Wouldnt be terribly expensive, hits Lefties well and would be a good veteran voice.
Connor Byrne
6:46
Freese retired.
Buck
6:47
Orioles make any pickups not from the dumpster this year?
Connor Byrne
6:47
They're not really in position to spend decent amounts on anyone.
Nick
6:47
Not really a question. But I feel like the Dodgers and Nats this year were further evidence that baseball is all about making the playoffs. Dodgers have been nasty year after year and can’t get it done. Nationals made it, got hot, and won. May encourage teams to just try to contend yearly if possible and anything can happen. Of course full rebuilds will still happen when necessary 🤷🏼‍♂️
Connor Byrne
6:48
I agree. Get there and you never know what'll happen.
Tony Clark
6:48
Am I the single worst union leader of all time? How much longer before my constituents realize and ouster me?
