All Takes
Bryce Harper will eventually sign with the Philadelphia Phillies
If you were to ask me straight up, [Harper goes to] Philadelphia. Philadelphia... Because it's 212 feet to right field, 279 to center, and 175 feet to left. So he's thinking Hall of Fame.
Being a great clubhouse guy means having no ego and not intimidating teammates
I'll tell you what makes a great locker room guy: immediately when you're hung like the light switch in the off position. Got it. So I think that immediately lowers a lot of stuff... When you care about guys and truly care about them, you want guys to do well.

The Astros win the World Series if Francisco Liriano moves to the bullpen and gets out tough lefties
The Astros win the World Series if Liriano could move to the bullpen and get out tough lefties.
The Cubs win the World Series if Jake Arrieta returns to his Cy Young form
The Cubs win it all if Jake Arrieta pitches to his Cy Young form, even give me the 16 version of Jake Arrieta. If he steps up and becomes that guy, because they need him as that guy.
Theo Epstein is smarter than most GMs because he trusts his instincts and asks players for feedback instead of just relying on spreadsheets
He's way smarter than a lot of those guys. Just because you're in this certain job title, there's not a whole lot of instincts going on in some of these places, bro. Theo has a unique gift of knowing boys club, of knowing clubhouse stuff... he goes out and asks players for things. Do you think this guy's good?
Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens definitely belong in the Hall of Fame
Barry Bonds? Yes. I think yes. Roger Clemens? Yes.
