    Remember when compromise was a good thing? I miss those days.

    I prefer the expensive agent to giving up prospects. I most prefer doing both, but if I only do one, I sign Darvish.
  3. Mike Sixel
    Congrats!
  4. Mike Sixel
    I hope they don't sign him. I've heard myself say that out loud. Does that count at all?

    Looks like my tiny bet on litecoin is about to go from 300% up to in the red! Glad I didn't bet more. Otoh.... Even though they laid me off, UNH keeps on returning money for me. That's much more important.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Where was that even discussed? I would consider trading him in a package, if high end pitching came back, but that has nothing to do with this at all.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Agreed. Just read in the fangraphs chat how teams are really using this kind of data a lot to assess players. From a guy that was recently in a front office....

    BoofBonser 12:40 Most exciting prospect in the Twins system besides Royce Lewis? Eric A Longenhagen 12:41 I think Akil Badoo is exciting, Wander Javier, think LaMonte Wade is real...lotta guys
  9. Mike Sixel
    Good luck to him! I hope he gets more chances

    Great article. All of the disagreements appear to be of the fake news variety. Don't like the data, so the data must be wrong, with no counter evidence offered. Nice work, Tom.
  11. Mike Sixel
    As opposed to a guy with no options, virtually, and wasn't good in the minors, who is 27....
  12. Mike Sixel
    I'd rather see Buesnitz than Kinley, for two reasons: 1. He was good in the majors, Kinley was barely good in the minors 2. Buesnitz has options....Kinley does not, effectively.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Never understood the kinley selection in the first place.

    Astros are killing it. They are going to be tough to beat.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Wut?
  16. Mike Sixel
    Really? How was the offensive line today? I was golfing
  17. Mike Sixel
    Why would Buxton sign that? No way,imo, he signs for that little.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Seems like a good move!
  19. Mike Sixel
    By then you either won't be able to afford him, or he isn't worth keeping. I can't see a good argument for not doing the "cheap" extension, from the Twins' side, at all. Unless you are totally risk adverse, there does not seem to be a good reason not to sign him and buy out years.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Not a fan of a one year deal. They aren't one player away. They needed pitching for the next several years. I do think you have the start of a good idea, though, that could be used for a four year deal.
  21. Mike Sixel
    I read that as "all liver" and could not figure out what that meant!
  22. Mike Sixel
    thanks for compiling it all in one place! They are woefully under 52% right now....
  23. Mike Sixel
    fivethirtyeight has a podcast out there right now, discussing how real they are.....
  24. Mike Sixel
    Did you decide where yet?
  25. Mike Sixel
    Superstar youngsters aren't signing these types of deals anymore, for good reason. If I was the Twins, I'd certainly want to do this deal, but if Buxton is even "meh" on offense, he'll get more than 30MM a year on the open market by the time he's a FA. If I'm him, I don't sign for two reasons: 1. I bet I can make a lot more in FA. 2. The Twins have shown no signs of spending money on FAs to win. Nor have they traded to add ML talent. I'm not sure they'll ever go all in, so why would I stay?
