    Pittsburgh and New England are at least their equals.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Or out of bounds.
  3. Mike Sixel
    Not worried about the eagles. agreed
  4. Mike Sixel
    This offense just does not impress me.

    I don't know. I saw on like six news sites the story of the ballplayer that donated the mansion recently. We see stories about koskie all the time. And morneau. I think we hear positive stories a lot. They aren't reported the same way, agreed.

    Cool stuff, thanks!

    I agree with Carole....I can care about talent and effort, but not the person. I root for laundry, not players.
  8. Mike Sixel
    I too would sign an outfielder. They still can. At least the owner isn't pocketing the money.
  9. Mike Sixel
    They weren't going to afford signing all of them, likely, anyway. I didn't like the Desmond signing at all. These I can at least understand the strategy. At some point, you need to add talent, not just wait to resign talent.

    More than 11 million people have streamed bright so far.... Or maybe it had been streamed that many times. Either way,a lot of people are watching

    Most MLB plans, like hitters, fail. The only one that doesn't is buying a team and reaping the money.

    The Big Sick, on Neflix, is really quite good.

    The partner not cooperating is why so many no longer trust police. Rightly or wrongly, they are viewed as caring more about their clan than Justice.

    Of course next year is easier if an internal candidate is good. I doubt anyone disagrees with that. That doesn't change if they sign a free agent or not. And, they likely need two or three more pitchers next year, not one or two. If Santana regresses and no one really steps up, they might need four.

    Year one being better doesn't mean year two is bad. They won't be winning any bidding wars next year on Kershaw our other elite talents, the big spenders are under the tax threshold this year for a reason. They are also very unlikely to sign two really good pitchers in any one off season. Passing this year makes next year's work that much harder.

    Starters don't want to go there. Imo, this is a better strategy than not trying. I don't know if it will work, but if these three take a lot of innings, it might. They need more hitting and fielding now.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Doesn't signing a pitcher to a longer deal help next year too?
  18. Mike Sixel
    I agree that filling the team with guys you can't option is bad roster management. We've seen it with the bullpen, and other issues, over the years. Napoli makes no sense.
  19. Mike Sixel
    This is why I root for laundry, and not individuals I don't know.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Almost no one throws that many anymore
  21. Mike Sixel
    By that logic, do you ever sign a free agent?
  22. Mike Sixel
    I would have been opposed to that. Trading prospects for 1 year rentals when coming off a terrible season, is awful strategy.
  23. Mike Sixel
    I don't know. Lots of FAs go for the money first..... lots of FAs sign with bad teams. I think fans over estimate, where money is not close, just how important a good team is. It's mostly about money. Secondly, it didn't take a genius front office to know the SP was bad, and was likely to remain bad. I don't understand what had to be analyzed or observed to know they needed more pitching last year. Whether there was pitching they liked or not, that's a different question. But no one had to observe anything for another year to know they needed more SP.
  24. Mike Sixel
    I see no good coming from giving up prospects for one year rentals. Not given their current roster. I also dont get worrying about flexibility if you never spend your money. It is way early to be worried about starting pitching yet, imo.
