Date	Question	Answer
2022-01-21 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Any hope Brendan McKay puts it all back together, or too much injury risk? (Gus A from Laconia, NH)	Unfortunately I think it's just been too many arm injuries at this point. (Top 101 chat w/Jeffrey Paternostro)
2021-02-23 12:00:00 (link to chat)	Thoughts on Brendan McKay moving forward? Do you see him as any more than a throw in in a deal or does he still hold value? (Big Mac from McDonalds)	Never count the Rays out I suppose but I would try to get what I could for him in a deal at this point. (Mike Gianella)
2020-12-04 12:00:00 (link to chat)	Now that Brendan McKay and Jared Walsh are ‘specialized’, only Shohei Ohtani and Michael Lorenzen are MLB 2-way players. Are there any current prospects who are potential 2-way players? (ari blum from NY)	I think you need to look for more of a Michael Lorenzen type rater than a guy who is above-average at both hitting and pitching. William Holmes for the Angels and Tanner Dodson for the Rays are the first two that come to mind. (Jeffrey Paternostro)
2019-10-09 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Who would you rather have, the fairly-solid certainty of mid-rotation Zac Gallen or Brendan McKay? (The Colonel from Pasadena, CA)	I've always been a bit low on McKay, and I'll continue that trend here. Gallen for me. I think he's a stud. (Craig Goldstein)
2019-09-25 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Do you prefer the stuff of Jesus Luzardo over Brendan McKay? How about Dustin May vs. McKay? (The Colonel from Pasadena, CA)	I prefer both on stuff over McKay. McKay's value is his command and control of his repertoire. I probably take both pitchers over McKay in general but I've always been pretty low on him. (Craig Goldstein)
