A frosty, cold, standard American lager is a wonderful accompaniment to a nice cheeseburger or dog under a blazing sun. That's about the only time I go to them, honestly.
3:32
So enjoy that, then as the sun dips, go back into the vault for your finest craft brews.
Should have doled out this essential advice on July 3rd. Alas.

Hey, the Rangers are doing pretty well! Do you think they’d be interested in reacquiring Andrew cashmere from the Orioles?
Jeffrey Todd
3:33
Only if they use him as their closer and he comes out to this music
And wearing one of those old timey baseball sweaters.
3:34
That'd be awesome.
3:35
All cashmere jokes aside, it is actually not the least interesting idea. The last thing the Rangers ought to do is give up young talent for improvements. They know they aren't really all that likely even to crack the wild card game. But hey, who knows? Why not take on a little money and see if you can keep things going? Cashner did have success in Texas. He could legit be utilized either as a late-inning reliever or in some kind of creative multi-inning capacity. Let's get weird.
Oh, and Kashmir really should be a closer entrance tune.
Indians
3:36
Realistic chance at the division?
Jeffrey Todd
3:36
Absolutely. They weathered some massive injuries and the collapse of Ramirez. Already within 6. Totally plausible they could take the ALC.

Its game 7 of the world series who would u pick? Wheeler or Bumgardner?
Jeffrey Todd
3:37
Most teams won't be anticipating dealing for a game 7 starter this summer.
Like, they probably already have that dude on their team.

Woahhhh. I think we have a first in MLBTR Live Chat history! Youtube videos???
Jeffrey Todd

I'm so contemporary!
Mike Rizzo

What reliever am I getting?
Jeffrey Todd
3:38
relievers
More than many other teams, Nats need volume. Shades of their prior Doolittle/Madson/Kintzler deadline.
Bill

I know the Yanks are going to trade Frazier, but doesn't the kid deserve being in the show until then?
Jeffrey Todd
3:39
In some sense, sure, but they'd have him there if they felt it gave them the best 25-man roster. And it's not hard to see why they don't given their array of players.

Too early to say I made a mistake?
Jeffrey Todd
3:40
Yes, it's too early.

What could the Sox get for Colome?
Jeffrey Todd
3:41
I really think teams will be wary. Opposing hitters have a .116 BABIP! I mean, credit to him for that as well, but that is utterly unsustainable. He has rather uninspiring numbers for the most part, beyond the ERA and saves.
3:42
He's also not cheap. And the White Sox may want to keep him in case they have a little WC run in them. And they could keep him for 2020.
Stabilizer Central

You need one out to win the World Series. Who ya got? This years players only?

Everyone  asks about Madbum and Will Smith...where will Tony Watson and Sam Dyson end up?
Jeffrey Todd
3:43
Just so hard to guess, because you can see fits all over the place.
NoobMaster69

I tend to agree but Wary as in latter 50 top 100 guy or not even that?
Jeffrey Todd
3:43
I think less, NoobMaster69.

Thanks everyone! Good chat, enjoyed it. Talk next week!
