Fan Graphs Suck Up

12:02

Where can I get my " I Know Who Dan Szymborski is and I am a Better Person For It" T- Shirt?

Dan Szymborski

12:03

I'm just happy that there's a Dan Szymborski character on a TV show! (Young & the Restless). I don't need a Dan Szymborski t-shirt empire.

There are few things I love more than daytime baseball

Dan Szymborski

12:03

There shoudl always be one!

Jim Leyland Palmer

12:03

What cigs does Jim Leyland smoke? Gotta be Reds, right?

Dan Szymborski

12:03

Leyland probably smokes some brand from the 1970s that doesn't actually still exist but he bought a truck of them.

12:05

Those still exist though

Mets Fan

12:05

RIP #41 -
And why do the Mets insist on killing themselves by using Diaz?

Dan Szymborski

12:06

Still reasons to be hopeful and besides, the Mets always have a *worse* idea on hand

ben

12:06

shoukd the Rockies been more aggressive at the trade deadline? Considering they won’t contend in 2021

Dan Szymborski

12:06

I'm not sure honestly. I think the offseason is probably ab etter time for them

Blue Morpho

12:06

What does all the Padres' action at the deadline centered around catchers mean for Mejia going forward?

Dan Szymborski

12:07

I think it's TBD. Hedges gone is a help and Castro is a FA

(I think)

Jerry Seinfeld

12:07

What's the DEAL with baseballs? I mean we see record-setting homerun paces, RIGHT, and now we're back to pre-2018 levels???

Dan Szymborski

12:07

And WHY is it baseball? You touch a plate not a base to score!

Is ZiPS for sale? Like if a team wanted to offer you enough money where you could retire on, but you could never use ZiPS publicly again would you consider it? If so, what would you do with your time?

Dan Szymborski

12:07

Not explicitly, but who knows.

Who's Fabio?

12:07

Dan, years from now we will obviously remember that Cleveland won the Greg Allen trade right? This is what history will say when my grand children look it up. Curmudgeonly yours.

Adam

12:08

As a Dodger fan, which potential 8-seed should be dominating my small-sample nightmares over the next month?

Dan Szymborski

12:08

Any of 'em. ZiPS projects the Giants to have a 35% chance at winning a three-game series at Dodger Stadium.

I think the rivals should bother more.

Dunning

12:08

Would you trade Gausman for Dunning in dynasty

Dan Szymborski

12:08

Depends on my team

rusty shackleford

12:08

dan what kind of music do you like

Dan Szymborski

12:09

Sadly, my tastes have tended towards the obnoxious hipster indie rock/pop bands of choice. I'm not really into harder stuff like I was 20 years ago

and classical music

I mean I'm into classical music not that I'm not really into it like I was 20 years ago

Guest

F/M/K: chili with beans, hot dog sandwich, ZiPS becoming sentient

Dan Szymborski

12:10

I will stand silent. You can't make me!

Guest

When was the last time the Rays clearly lost a trade?

Dan Szymborski

12:10

Not sure it's clearly, but I still rather have Solak than Fairbanks

12:11

clearly, maybe Wil myers trade

12:12

It still amazes me that in a Wil Myers trade, neither traded nor the team that acquired Myers looked the best, either in foresight or hindsight.

JDM was complaining about not having access to video. Is there a way to see which players this change might have affected the most?

Dan Szymborski

12:12

No
