Aram and Jack start the show with the latest on Emmanuel Clase. Then, they answer questions submitted via Discord, X, and Instagram.

Discord:

If you were a gm, please exclude the dodgers, pick the 3 teams you’d most want to takeover for the next 6-8 years and try and win a World Series with. - Ryan on Discord
Who do u think will be your number top 3 teams watched this season on your mlb app recap. - Ryan
Dark horse buyer and seller at the deadline? It’s time for a 6 month out prediction on one team for each side. - LandoHO8
What prospects/minor leaguers are you excited to watch in camp? Who breaks camp with the big league team and who breaks camp april 15? **cough cough** konnor griffin april 15 call up. - Ryboi808
Which of the three big Japanese signings have the most pressure to succeed this year between Murakami, Okamoto, and Imai ?? - Marco__

Building upon the Spring Breakout concept, there should be a “Summer Breakout” too. Thursday at the end of All-Star break. 15 primetime exhibition games at MLB ballparks before the leaguers return from break. Who says no? - Ely Sussman on X
With Schwellenbach on the 60 Day, who do you guys think the Braves could still sign / potentially trade for before the start of the season? Yes I’m aware they probably are gonna do neither. - EastADown7678 on X

IG:

As a Phillies fan.. how badly did we botch this offseason? Garcia instead of Bader... still had an excess to spend even after whiffing on Bichette and resigning JT.. I feel like we could have done so much more/higher quality moves. I love the idea of letting the young guys play, but we needed more help if we're gonna push through this last crack in the window. - @gbilot1 on IG
Who are your biggest out of nowhere breakout picks for this season? - @ryanconchado on IG

Pick a few of the current buyers at the deadline and instead of a trade; pick one player from their roster from 2000-2010 who would fit their needs (and let’s see some deep cuts, nothing too easy) - AlohaGopher
Which current non-playoff team should be a buyer? Is there a team in the playoffs (or within 2 games) that would be better off selling for the long term health of the org? - Shaan Donohue
One pitcher/hitter performance that has been the most surprising (good or bad) so far this year - Christian Crespo
Who are your dark horse award winners? Now that things are starting to take shape. Is shaw still aram’s favorite to win roy? Can robbie ray win the cy young? - Ryboi808
Who is an underrated arm that will be moved this deadline that will take down big innings into October for a contender? - marco__
Thoughts on Andrew McCutchen's comments last week about the MLB changing the baseball, lack of unifomity, and how it directly affects on-field play. Is baseball the only sport in the world where the league can change the most important piece of equipment used at-will and in silence and somehow not cause an uproar? - TaylorG

Instagram:

Who is another potential superstar that could be surprisingly dealt at the deadline similarly to the Devers situation - maxtuffy25
Who are the sophomores that are surprisingly taking a step back or a step forward - moritsugu.ryan
If you’re the Blue Jays what are you doing with Bo Bichette. You’re in a playoff spot so it’s tough to trade your starting SS, but if you don’t, you’re losing him for nothing - hunter.rose35

Who is a player come deadline time that will get traded and the baseball world will say “woah, they got that back for him? Good for x team!” - Walker Jenkins Fan Club

Who are some teams that are in a good position to make a large splash at the deadline, and who are potential targets? - Carter03 on Discord
If there was a “not debuted yet” ROTY award who do you think would win it in each league? - Schroeder on Discord
If Ohtani does not pitch this season, with the pace he is on, do you think he would win mvp still? Right now I think Corbin and tatis are above him. - Ryan on Discord
In honor of the Drake Baldwin/Sean Murphy "problem," do you think a tandem of two above average hitters is the future of the catcher position rather than one starter and one light hitting backup? - RegalLager on Discord

TWITTER:

Which catcher will have a better career: Drake Baldwin or Dalton Rushing? - @4MOpinions on Twitter
Who are some guys that haven’t been quite as good as you expected that you think eventually will (definitely asking for fantasy baseball trade purposes) - @DominicValdes5 on Twitter
How do the brewers approach the rest of the season? Stay competitive or sell off rentals and promote prospects? - @mr_bigballs12

Jack has mentioned that Blake Snell and Max Muncy, while good, are not his tempo for enjoying baseball. Who are some other “objectively good” players that aren’t your cup of tea? Conversely, who are some personal favorites of yours that the aesthetic out matches the production? I’m gonna pencil in mikael Garcia for you Pete - Shaan Donohue on Discord

If the Astros fail to make the playoffs this season, what direction do they head in, after almost a decade of success it’s probably hard to push the reset button but could you guys see them doing that? - Ryan on Discord

Next question is a Yankees two-parter, what should the Yankees do when Giancarlo Stanton comes back? Ben Rice has outplayed his expectations and deserves a spot in the lineup. Do the Yankees platoon Rice against RHP and Stanton against LHP, or should they force someone else out of the lineup? - Chase on Discord

Who is ur favorite post hype breakout this year and why? - Durph on Discord

With Pete Alonso finally being re-signed, do you think it’s possible for 4 teams out of the NL East to make the Playoffs? I believe the Nationals are a sleeper to make the playoffs. -@bignate2144 on X
Which team do you think is the most volatile heading into the 2025 season? (Biggest variance from their floor and ceiling as a team). - @4MOpinions on X
Which young player do you see taking the biggest jump to super stardom this season, my personal pick would be James Wood would love your guys’ thoughts. - @bgiannascoli on Instagram
Who is on your Mount Stuffmore? Not best pitchers, just favorite guys to watch because of their filthy repertoire. - @SkylerClifton on X
Is there any team that made the playoffs last year that you guys think will not make it this year? - ogeary29 on IG
Who is the prospect that no one is talking about that could make a serious impact at the MLB level? - giovannip2 on IG
Because it’s Super Bowl week, try and make a football team with active MLB guys (probably don’t have to do lineman) - @rkat5 on Instagram

Fri, 13 Dec 2024 06:05:00 +0000

Jack and Peter end the week by answering your questions from X and Instagram!

Did the Red Sox give up too much for Crochet? - @jmhall13 on IG
Who will be the best prospect moved this offseason? will it end up being teel? (am i forgetting another trade) - @ryan05foster on X
Who will be considered the “steal” of the off-season? Maybe someone who is going to get a smaller contract than they deserve or a free agent you guys are very high on. - @GutTakes on X
If the Reds trade from their surplus of starting pitchers, who could they trade and to potentially what team? What could a trade look like? - @TeamKaptain08 on X
How do you think the Orioles and the Mariners could match up in a trade? - KleineSchroeder on X
What’s best case scenario, from the Cardinal’s POV, for an Arenado trade? Hope for a straight salary dump, or could there be an actual interesting piece coming back in return? - @d_rawlings23 on IG
As a Giants fan, I would like to hear your opinion about how the Giants are being ran. Posey says he would like to focus on scouting (assuming he’s speaking on drafting) but why do we donate our draft picks for QA free agents? We lost the chapman and snell picks. The west is too strong for a mid Giants team with no farm (we cant even win a top 10 spot in the draft lotto) Does it really make sense to go full force and sign QA free agents instead of signing 1 year flippable players at the deadline? Posey’s contract is only for 3 years and he has given away another pick this year. - @moritsugu.ryan on IG
The Tigers, Royals, and Mets were the pleasant surprises of last season. Who is your prediction for surprise team for this upcoming season? - @trebbs44 on IG
If Dombrowski were to push the chips forward to try and bring Kyle Tucker to Philly, what would the package look like that would send him from Houston to Philly? - @gabegarner15 on IG

Pick three teams you think will have 100 wins, and three teams with 100 losses and why. - @owencasterline on IG

You’ve been selected to succeed Rob Manfred in 2029. What’s the first change you try to implement to improve the game? - @Ryanbrodie14 on Twitter
Questions about Hunter Greene’s and Spencer Strider adding new pitches
Which upcoming free agent makes themselves the most money this season and why? - @calebparm on Twitter
For top prospects who are likely to get called up this year (Skenes, Langford, etc.), is it more important for a pitcher to get a few starts under his belt in the minor leagues or for a hitter to get reps against minor league pitching before getting the call? Basically, who benefits the most from minor league reps before going to the majors: hitters or pitchers? - @codyvoga on Instagram
Do the rays trade established big league pieces, like Harold Ramirez or Brandon Lowe, at the trade deadline to clear room for Mead, Camenerio, and eventually Williams? Or should they trade pieces now to make room on the opening day roster? - @toddbernius on Instagram
