Paul Sporer: Good Friday, everyone!! Let’s talk some baseball!!!

Paul Sporer:

Asher: I’m still holding onto Hunter Pence, is that rational? The Giants are a trash fire even if he picks it up.

Paul Sporer: Depends on league size and who is available, but I don’t think it’s egregious to keep him in 12+

Craig : Now that your boy J.D. Martinez is back. Top 20 OF?

Paul Sporer: I think so as long as the foot doesn’t linger

Brad Johnson: Alright, let’s get this going. I’m watching A.J. Griffin to see if I can spot anything positive aside from this stat line.

Ray Liotta as Shoeless Joe: Ignoring the economics of feasible markets, how many expansion teams does the level of talent support before a noticeable drop-off in product? The White Sox and Reds, for instance, are showing us that a team does not have to be infinitely better than a Triple-A club since rebuilding is more acceptable and losing can be chic as well.

Brad Johnson: Personally, I think MLB is doing it all wrong. League should be a good 40 teams deep with a starker divide between AL and NL.

Brad Johnson: I don’t buy this market nonsense either

Brad Johnson: Sure, teams like the Yankees and Cubs will always be at a huge advantage over a Charlotte or Durham, but revenue sharing can solve that

Henry: Did Gausman figure it out or should we still be worried?

Brad Johnson: So what shall we discuss today? There’s always a couple recurring questions.

Dr. Met: I’m very bad at my job….

Brad Johnson: As good a topic to start with as any. The Mets seemingly have no capacity for managing their medical issues

Brad Johnson: They have the same problems as every other team, but they always make themselves look so hapless

rustydude: With Thames’ impending OF eligibility in Ottoneu, who are some good 1B/Util upside plays to replace him with? I have Reynolds & Carter rostered but they’re part-timers. I put in a bid for Valbueno. Any other suggestions?

Brad Johnson: You probably aren’t going to find instant gratification on the wire. You may even be better off leaving him at utility. So many interesting outfielders available.

Brad Johnson: I’m sitting here pondering the age old question of unicorns or eunuch horns. Perhaps it’s time to start.

Brad Johnson:

Starling Marte: Oops

Brad Johnson: Yea, so let’s get this out of the way.

Brad Johnson: You’re all going to ask about Austin Meadows, I think we’ll see him for a 1-2 months of these 80 games

Brad Johnson: For now, Adam Frazier will continue to absorb OF starts. Maybe we see some Bell out there too. Alen Hanson seems like he should be utile enough to do some OF too.

Brad Johnson: Let’s talk some baseball!

Brad Johnson: 30 home runs in 14 games included four! multi-homer games

Brad Johnson: is it too soon to say the HRs are back?

Conor: Who’s your bet to get save chances in Oakland?

Brad Johnson: Sean Doolittle is their best reliever

Brad Johnson: sounds like it’ll be a hodge-podge for awhile
