Hey, Travis! Big thanks for doing this every week. Who would you rather have ROS: Berrios or Manaea? And are they both top-20 starters ROS?
Travis Sawchik

Berrios. I like his skill-level better and I think he's a better bet to stay healthy
Dingers!

Javier Baez: Chances he breaks 30 HRs this year vs. chances he breaks a .325 OBP? By the end of the year, where does he rank among Cubs in WAR?
Travis Sawchik
1:06
He'll hit 30 HRs with health, I think he falls short of .325 OBP

Why is Lucas Giolito doing this to me?

Thoughts on Mookie leading off?  I don't like it...reminds me when Soriano was smacking dingers out of the 1 hole nonstop with the Cubbies...seems a waste when his SLG% is .732 despite the hilarious .459 OBP
Travis Sawchik

I'm OK with Mookie getting as many PAs as possible but it might not be the optimum spot for me

You spoke to Iannetta about the code sheet, did you get to ask him about his offensive renaissance? A one time top prospect making good a la David Ross?
Travis Sawchik
1:10
It was solely a conversation about the code sheet. Sorry!

if defense is less important now than it was 10 years ago, is that being accounted for in fWAR?
Travis Sawchik
1:10
It's something we probably need to revisit

Are you worried about Gary Sánchez?
Travis Sawchik

Never again

and if you bunt with 2 strikes and foul it off you are out
Travis Sawchik

Very true
But why?
