At the tone, please record your voice message. When you've finished recording, you may hang up or press pound for more options... BEEP

Why did Yankees immediately trade Shed Long for a just-drafted prospect?
Smith Brickner
1:40
Saves future 40-man space. I remember hearing somewhere that Stowers was a target of theirs in the 2nd round, but Seattle obviously picked him before they could nab him.
Joliet
1:40
I remember in one of your previous chats, you were low on Adalberto Mondesi. Where would draft him, then?
Smith Brickner
1:41
I'm by no means an expert in fantasy baseball, but I can think of at least 7 or 8 shortstops I'd choose over him.

Are you familiar with investing in some stock with an mlb team ? If so would you recommend
Smith Brickner
1:42
I believe the Indians, Braves and Blue Jays are all owned by publicly traded companies. The teams themselves are not publicly traded, though.
1:43
It's interesting though... you can get some interesting information from their parent company's financials

Marcus Stroman… is a rebound in the cards?
Smith Brickner
1:44
He needs to stay healthy. If he's healthy, he could enjoy a very solid year, especially since Toronto has worked on improving their infield defense. For a groundball pitcher like Stroman, that's HUGE
1:45
He's one of the guys I'm looking forward to seeing the most in Spring Training. Not that the results matter, but I want to see where his stuff and mechanics are
Hi

Hi brick

When people troll you here, do you get offended?
Smith Brickner

Me no feelings. Me robot.

Say a team like the Braves make a deal for Bumgarner, what would that return package look like?
Smith Brickner
1:47
This is an interesting debate. If they were unwilling to move any of their top prospects for 2 years of Realmuto, I see no situation where they'd change course in a deal for Bumgarner
1:48
I can't envision the Giants moving him now, either. And if they did, they'd want talent close to the majors.

will giancarlo look more like his 2017 or 2018 self?
Smith Brickner
1:50
eh, I'd say probably somewhere in the middle. He had unsustainable success in 2017, but he was also good-not-great last year. As he becomes more familiar with pitchers in the AL, I could see a situation where he's a .900 OPS bat with slightly less K's

I’m not really going to start over DJ Lemahieu, am I?
Smith Brickner

For my sanity, I hope you don't

disabled list to injured list? how stupid
Smith Brickner
1:54
it's so inconsequential, one way or another. i could care less what they call it.

Has your opinion on the NL East changed since the Realmuto trade?
Smith Brickner
1:55
A little, not much. Still have it Nats, Phils, Braves, Mets, Marlins

How about we get robots to call balls and strikes? Seems to have enough support amongst front offices
Smith Brickner
1:55
It's not that far fetched a concept.
1:57
Arguing balls and strikes would be interesting, though. Imagine some algorithm that can decide the appropriate time to throw a player out of the game for arguing. ha!
Jen

What’s an interesting trend you’re noticing in the game that is going mostly unnoticed publicly?
Smith Brickner
1:58
I like these multi-positional catchers. Astudillo and Kiner-Falefa are fun guys to watch move all over.
And who doesn't love themselves a good Astudillo bat flip?

Of all series to have in London this year, why the Yankees and Red Sox?
Smith Brickner
1:59
Yeah, I've been wondering this myself. Clearly, it's to add added hype to the games in London, hoping for better turnout.
2:00
Imagine going to a Orioles-Marlins game in London. Oof.
