Added 2020-12-02 23:07:40 +0000 UTCHey all, hope you're enjoying the holiday season. Use this post to submit questions for December's video Q&A. I'll be back with my answers sometime in the middle of the month.

Here's a non-baseball question: What's your opinion on Libertarianism? (I know you are a Bernie supporter) I used to hold similar beliefs as you until I learned about the Austrian School of Economics. Learning what I believed was Capitalism is actually Corporatism opened my eyes. If you're interested in hearing another perspective here are some works that I recommend. • The Road to Serfdom by F.A Hayek • Human Action by Ludwig Von Mises • Free to Choose by Milton Friedman • Economics in One Lesson by Henry Hazlitt • The Revolution: A Manifesto by Ron Paul (Any publication written by Ron Paul is worth your time)

2020-12-19 17:24:34 +0000 UTCHi Bailey, you pronounced my name pretty well last month but best way is HWAHNG or HWAYNG. Silly question this month: If baseball changed the direction of the basepaths (old third base is the new second base, old first base is the new 2nd base), what do you think would happen in the immediate aftermath? what would you do if you were a GM

2020-12-13 07:40:13 +0000 UTCDoes Teoscar Hernandez repeat his amazing 2020 season in 2021 and beyond, or was this year a fluke?

2020-12-12 03:11:38 +0000 UTCHey Foolish. I was wondering which players you think benefited the most from the 60 game season, and which players you think are now being undervalued due to it. Also, my last name is quite tricky. Don't blame you for being unable to pronounce it. For future reference it is pronounced sigh-ho-jis. Hope that helps!

2020-12-10 09:06:18 +0000 UTCI would buy a shirt with Mike Trout baseball-reference page on it and wear it unironically just FYI

2020-12-10 07:51:02 +0000 UTCAs a Braves fan the same age as you it made me happy that you said 05 Braves were the most fun team for you. I agree 100%. What is one thing that isn't talked about much that you think will be important in the 2021 negotiations between MLB and the Players. Example: Young players like Soto carrying their teams but making near league minimum.

2020-12-08 04:49:05 +0000 UTCHey Foolish! Settle a debate between the r/baseball mods; Is Buster Posey a Hall of Famer?
Mazzocchi (Taylor's Version)
2020-12-07 19:06:37 +0000 UTCAt what age do you think Justin Verlander will retire?
Harry Lewis
2020-12-06 22:47:14 +0000 UTCWhen someone tells you that baseball is boring, what do you say to them?
Lucas Berg
2020-12-04 17:57:54 +0000 UTCI replied to that last week! going to start looking for designers this winter, but merch won't launch until ~March 2021

2020-12-04 04:37:26 +0000 UTCI know you did the arm punt video but would you do any other football videos?
Christian Gonzalez
2020-12-04 03:20:00 +0000 UTCalso merch update?
Angel Marquez
2020-12-04 02:29:32 +0000 UTCcan mike trout be the goat with no rings and only one playoff appearance?
Angel Marquez
2020-12-04 02:29:14 +0000 UTCAlso to build off this, how would you feel if it was used only starting in the 13th inning or even later?
Nolan McDermott
2020-12-04 00:48:16 +0000 UTCHi foolish, long-time listener first time caller. Plenty of people say that baseball needs to market itself better, like the NBA. Let's say you're named the commissioner of baseball today, what would you do to rebrand baseball?
Ryan Sartori
2020-12-03 16:45:00 +0000 UTCWhich MLB player would make the best protagonist in a crappy guilty pleasure Netflix Holiday rom-com?
Jared Natsis
2020-12-03 15:54:48 +0000 UTCWhat should be the HOF benchmark for relievers and closers, and who are some you would induct using your benchmark?
Delos Chen
2020-12-03 11:59:10 +0000 UTCNot sure if you have covered before, but thoughts on extra inning runner on 2nd base thing?
Taylor Hensley
2020-12-03 04:27:36 +0000 UTCThoughts on the 3 batter minimum rule? Feel like its a pretty big change that rarely talked about. Personally I like I think it’s a good start for pace of play changes.
Nolan McDermott
2020-12-03 03:11:08 +0000 UTCHow would you break down this year’s Baseball Hall of Fame ballot? Who would get your vote and who should just be glad to be on the ballot?

2020-12-02 23:19:50 +0000 UTCWhat's your ideal Christmas dinner?
Kevin Burke
2020-12-02 23:13:14 +0000 UTCHow bad does Rougned Odor have to play before the Rangers finally part ways with him? (They announced today that solak is starting 2b this spring but that they will be trying Odor at other spots 🤦♂️)
Tom Landry Jackson
2020-12-02 23:12:25 +0000 UTCWho do you think will be the biggest name dealt this offseason, if any?
Cody Dutcher
2020-12-02 23:12:12 +0000 UTCWhat was your favourite meaningless regular season game this year? For me it was the Pirates Vs Tigers 13-17 game from August, glorious chaos!
HoofieHoof
2020-12-02 23:11:05 +0000 UTCLittle late for this question but I find it to be a fun exercise: If the MLB had decide to go with a playoff committee ala college football this past season and you were on it, which four teams from the AL and which four teams from the NL would you vote for to make the playoffs?
Joey Hickmann
2020-12-02 23:10:38 +0000 UTCHow many snakes is too many snakes
Sammy Sadovia
2020-12-02 23:09:03 +0000 UTCAre the White Sox or Braves more likely to land Trevor Bauer?
Matt Swanson
2020-12-02 23:08:54 +0000 UTCI don't know if you have gotten this question before, but what made you choose the video game style for Baseball Bits?
