Date	Question	Answer
2011-08-04 13:00:00	Falling off a cliff batters: Carlos Baerga? Falling off a cliff pitchers: Steve Blass? (dianagramr from NYC)	Baerga went from great to replacement level seemingly overnight, but he wasn't worst-player-in-the-league awful. Blass... well, if they name a syndrome after you, don't you get a pass? (Jay Jaffe)
2008-12-10 14:00:00	Robbie Cano - should the Yankees stick with him or move him for a young Dodger outfielder (if possible)? What's your gut feeling on his production for the life of the deal he signed? (Phil from NJ)	I would trade him the next time he hits .320. Dealing him now is a waste. He's a better-conditioned, slightly-less-talented Carlos Baerga. (Joe Sheehan)
2008-01-23 13:00:00	Robinson Cano's PECOTA? Does he project to be a high-variability player? Thanks! (Tony from Brooklyn, NY)	He's not particuarly high-variability. He's either going to be a pretty good ballplayer like Carlos Baerga or a really freakin' good ballplayer like ... someone better than Carlos Baerga. The scenarios where he crashes and burns are pretty much off the table at this point. (Nate Silver)
