    I bet he's just cut at some point. But, if they want to give up a really elite prospect for some millions, I consider it. But only if that doesn't impact the FA budget....they need pitching.
  2. Mike Sixel
    From what I read it is effort, not ability.....
  3. Mike Sixel
    Even you would admit OF defense matters if you saw Kemp "try" out there....
  4. Mike Sixel
    Ya, for some reason I thought he had four. Still do it....but a tiny bit less into it.
  5. Mike Sixel
    And? He's worth more than Stanton and his contract.
  6. Mike Sixel
    No kidding. I don't think this happens in a million years, but a guy can dream.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Who is older, and will be gone in two years. But yes, another strike against this idea.
  8. Mike Sixel
    I'd rather they sign Darvish, or Lynn and Cobb, and make this trade. But, I can't disagree with your stance.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Garver is older, and has almost no MLB at bats....right? Sounds good to me.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Why would he sign a three year deal?
  11. Mike Sixel
    Spider 12:52 What is the Twins next move? Darvish? Cobb? Another reliever? Travis Sawchik 12:52 Darvish would like nice, sure ... But I could see a Tier 2 FA starter landing there https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/travis-sawchik-fangraphs-chat-43/

    This is the guy they should be pursuing. Not gonna be cheap in prospects, but worth it, imo. Vhttps://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2017/12/jt-realmuto-trade-request-rumor-marlins.html

    I actually agree. His stuff and underlying numbers have never shown in the actual results. As much as I trust process, at some point, results matter. He's Gray, not an ACE, imo. Gordon, Gonsalves, another AA pitcher and Kiriloff should be enough. If not, I don't do it. And, I'm higher on Gordon than most. He's not flashy, but he'll put up 2-3 WAR per year for the next 10 years, imo. That certainty has real value.

    I do. But he is the top free agent. The way to win the bidding is to win the bidding. I am just being realistic here. It's about the money. These posts never once mentioned anyone being cheap. I never implied it either. The point is simple, if you want the most expensive asset, you have to pay up.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Creative? How about just pay the most?
  16. Mike Sixel
    I was pretty sure that would be incomplete, assuming you mean the Pittsburgh play. He should have secured it better. That said, I think it was a catch. He had already established control.
  17. Mike Sixel
    They are in the mix of the six or seven elite teams. I don't think they are the best. But they are great.
  18. Mike Sixel
    No. He wasn't all that much better than the league average DH. And he is supposedly not exactly a hard worker. Zero interest
  19. Mike Sixel
    Why do people keep saying three years on relief pitcher deals? Haven't nearly all the deals been one or two years? How are we to trust the front office to be great pitching evaluators, if we don't think they are smart enough to find a relief pitcher to sign for more than one year?
  20. Mike Sixel
    You go thru more than half the year with bad relief pitchers then.
  21. Mike Sixel
    Because he's not all that good, and they'll just have to fix the problem again next year.....
  22. Mike Sixel
    I don't understand why the Yankees aren't aiming higher for pitching, frankly.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Did most relievers get three years?
  24. Mike Sixel
    Since this is spoiler free, for now, we'll wait....I liked it a lot. I did not love it.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Brock and I must have seen different movies. I left entertained, but not satisfied
