    I wish I knew. Actually, I wish they had better pitching, but knowing if they have a plan to seriously compete or not would be a nice consolation prize.
  2. Mike Sixel
    I guess by that logic, we are looking at over 105 wins, over 110? That's the trend.
  3. Mike Sixel
    As we learned with the M and M boys, injuries happen. Everyone they are relying on is healthy, except ESAN.... And he's only out one month. Who knows how that will look next year? Also, the Yankees and dodgers will have reset their cap situation. And, there aren't many great pitchers available next year. They'll have to trade prospects. Oh, and will Dozier be ok with this off-season if it goes South, and they passed on better options?
  4. Mike Sixel
    Agreed, two good posts.

    I subscribed today. Twins' coverage reads like local paper coverage so far... positive fluff. I will update the thread as I read. If you might subscribe, let me know. Pretty sure I get stuff if I refer you.....
  6. Mike Sixel
    Then why didn't someone else offer more?
  7. Mike Sixel
    And Sanchez? Or all the AA pitchers aren't without risk? This is another year of Buxton and Sano, not even close to championship pitching.
  8. Mike Sixel
    All fair, but so far, they've not really moved the needle at all in terms of starters.

    Mike sixel 2:53 Do the Twins not think Lynn or Cobb is good? Are they frugal? What is the plan while Buxton and Sano are here? Dan Szymborski 2:53 I don't think Lynn is that good. And Cobb has risks.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Great post!
  11. Mike Sixel
    They don't seem inclined to deal prospects, though. They've been quoted saying as much.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Agreed. I don't mind contrarion views. Sometimes I agree, sometimes I don't. This time, I don't.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Ooops. Meant to type Buxton!
  14. Mike Sixel
    And no other team would offer more than that for a number three?
  15. Mike Sixel
    ANSKY 12:54 What do you expect from Berrios this year for IP, K nd ERA, will he be the twins best pitcher? Travis Sawchik 12:56 I'm a big Berrios guy. He'll be a 15% K-BB guy with a sub-4 ERA. He'll be the ace on a staff that will lack a true ace https://www.jotcast.com/chat/travis-sawchik-fangraphs-chat-3024.html
  16. Mike Sixel
    Imo, it is a pipe dream that Berrios signs an extension. It is getting rare for elite talents to do so. As for pitching, waiting for the deadline is a bit of a self fulfilling prophecy.... They aren't likely to be really good, and need more pitching....
  17. Mike Sixel
    Got it. I guess I don't care if they are enlightened, or whatever. I care if the make the team better, or worse.

    Minnesota (T)wins 12:32 I know some articles have been posted about the Odorizzi/Palacios trade. I can continue to feel hopeful (or rather less bad?) about the Twins rotation this year? I love the trade, feels kinda weak for TB return, right? Travis Sawchik 12:32 I like the Odorizzi pickup even he's more of a back-end guy...the Twins have a huge SP need and their SP depth was horrendous last season 12:33 Twins didn't have to surrender much either.
  19. Mike Sixel
    That's some serious cherry picking of stats..... https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=1b&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=y&type=8&season=2017&month=0&season1=2017&ind=0&team=0&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0
  20. Mike Sixel
    Doesn't look a lot better.... Let's not forget Santana isn't getting younger, at some point he will get worse. There is hope, but almost none of it has been added by this front office, unless you like Odorizzi
  21. Mike Sixel
    Not sure what any of that had to do with extending him out not? He's a median or worse first baseman the past few years. For a team that won't, as we've seen this year and last, sign expressive players, they apparently need to save every penny they can....

  23. Mike Sixel
    If he's a legit number three, why was he basically free?
  24. Mike Sixel
    8 year deal just signed, after a 6 year deal was. Looks like long term contracts still exist....
  25. Mike Sixel
    Doesn't matter who their choices were, this is what they accomplished so far.... Usually you judge people on actions, not what they wanted to do, but didn't
