Date	Question	Answer
2018-04-16 14:00:00 (link to chat)	Which OF is most expendable or tradable in a 14 team weekly points format? Domingo Santana, Hicks, Haniger, CarGo, or Mazara? We start 3 OF and one UTIL and one OF may need to go. (dylanrox from Des Moines)	It's CarGo for me. He just looks pretty much done. (Scott Delp)
2017-03-29 14:00:00 (link to chat)	Last one:) Christian Pache, Dakota Hudson and Jhailyn Ortiz..are you high on any of them? (Accudart from VT)	Out of that group, I'm most acquainted (natch) with Jhailyn Ortiz, and I'm surprisingly high on him. After all the rumors that he was a bust or not really the kind of prospect that anyone would expect him to be, he hit the ground running for the Phillies, and reports from some of my friends who scout the minors a bit more than me are positive. Fangraphs' Eric Longenhagen has a Phillies background so he's on point in this regard and he sees him in the same way a lot of folks saw Domingo Santana back in the day. (Trevor Strunk)
2017-03-09 20:00:00 (link to chat)	What is your outlook on Domingo Santana? Sleeper/someone to target? (Craig from Rio)	Haha, well, do we ever have a podcast for you. Understandable, but we rarely miss an opportunity to jock Domingo Santana. The outlook has dimmed a little since 2016, now that he's a corner bat, and not a great one, but he still has a tremendous amount of potential, and should be receiving some of the same praise/consternation as the similar Michael Conforto. (Ben Murphy, Ian Lefkowitz and Jared Weiss)
2016-08-11 14:00:00 (link to chat)	Now that the Brewers have purged their most valuable assets from the major league roster, what is the next step in their rebuilding process? What opportunities do they have to improve their system, outside of draft or free agency? (Peter from Phoenix)	One of the underrated pieces of Stearns' rebuilding job has been his accumulation of depth. Ryan Braun could be a hot commodity this winter -- though I think he stays -- while the Brewers will have some mid-rotation depth in the starting rotation. Guys like Jimmy Nelson, Junior Guerra, and Wily Peralta could be on the trade block. Domingo Santana could be surplus to requirements, too. The obvious trade pieces are gone, but Stearns has shown that he's willing to get creative and move controllable pieces to better the organization. I also think the Brewers need to make a larger investment in the international market. (J.P. Breen)
2016-05-12 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Which group of players will the Astros regret trading more? Dealing away Vincent Velasquez and Mark Appel or Brett Phillips, Domingo Santana, and Josh Hader? (Okie from Muskogee)	The latter, which is weird to say, because I've been pretty slow to come on the Hader train. I have loved most of what Houston has done, but I think they're really going to come to regret that deal. (Christopher Crawford)
