Maybe the wind, but also maybe... The de-juiced ball?
sarcasm by the way
Ben Clemens
9:48
You're the man
You guys are crazy to still be here chatting with us
Josh Herzenberg

May didn't learn his cutter until last year in high A, btw
Ben Clemens
9:48
But we love you

Where do the Mets fit into this natural rivals talk?
Ben Clemens
9:48
Oh, Metropolitans/Trolley-Dodgers
Josh Herzenberg
9:48
The Mets?
Ben Clemens
9:49
Those jerks not paying their fares
Josh Herzenberg
9:49
Oh. I was going to go Mets vs. Mets
Belli Flop
9:49
We love you too, Ben!
Ben Clemens
9:49
Unless they're dodging being hit, then those jerks not getting run over.

Would a player who could see 10 seconds into the future be more valuable on offense or defense?
Ben Clemens
9:49
We're going full effectively wild here.
Belli Flop
9:50
Offense.  Know what pitch is coming
Ben Clemens
9:50
That's my thought, but
Your opponents would have a 0 BABIP
like actually zero!
Belli Flop

One guy can't run across the entire field.
Ben Clemens
9:50
No, he'd have to yell, and then we get into some interesting causality loops.
Dystopian Future
9:51
Well, for the sake of not being boring, why don't we assume that this person can ONLY see 10 seconds into the future. They can't see the intervening seconds, just literally what happened 10 seconds from point x
Ben Clemens
9:51
A real question is, can he change the future?
Like, if he's a catcher and sees that there will be a dinger in ten seconds can he just call time?
Kiermaier's Piercing Green Eyes
9:52
But wait, now everyone on your team can know what pitch is coming if the guy can yell...
Ben Clemens
9:52
I think we've discovered why time travel makes for such good science fiction.
Derek
9:52
That swing looked uncomfortable
Ben Clemens
9:53
I'd say that that May stole Dozier's soul on that one, but that pales in comparison to Kolten Wong's combination belly flop/ swinging K earlier today
Adam2
9:53
Wouldn’t this player be violating the unwritten rules of baseball time travel?
Ben Clemens
9:53
Yeah but good luck beaning him.
Marc
9:53
Only being able to see ten seconds into the future sounds like a guy who'd watch himself getting hit with a liner because he can't see what's going on in present time

Let's go Hudson
Brian CashGod
9:55
Strasburg in the hoodie lmao
Ben Clemens
9:55
I am gonna tone it back down towards the game a little.
9:56
Now that it's literally the ninth inning.
Marc
9:56
Yes but what if you could watch the game in the ninth inning ten seconds before anyone else?
Ben Clemens
9:56
I'm watching it on YouTube TV, so ten seconds after everyone else.
Belli Flop
9:57
People actually use that?!
Ben Clemens
9:57
We have super cheap fiber in my building, but cable is pricey
So it's YouTube TV or Sling
Connecting…
