    teams w/o good starters should do something like that, in a planful way. But, so far, no one has planned to do that.
  2. Mike Sixel
    so, just trust the FO? What if it doesn't need 4 more weeks?

    winning brings in fans, possibly hope. They won't win in 2018 with Colon getting starts this year, and Garver not getting any time here this year. If you think fans are looking at this team, and are excited about next year, we disagree. I'm cool with that. Right now, they are both not looking to the future, and not putting butts in seats. I'd suggest trying something different than old, bad, players that aren't part of future. They might turn out to be more ready for next year than we think. They might not, but unless you think it will ruin their development, there is currently no reason not to move on, imo. also, imo, the average fan has no idea/care what that first sentence means, in terms of "what did they do to get better", I'd guess they don't view him as a new player this year. that's a guess.

    seconded. Let's try it, and see what happens.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Disappointing to be sure. I hope the leaders on the team figure out how to lead. We clearly have no idea, but it seems to be lacking again/still. But, it comes down to talent, and they just don't have enough.

    "added this year" was kind of an important phrase in that post you are now completely ignoring.

    I bet the fans are very excited about a few relief pitchers, and polanco is no rookie. Nor did I say we would never see this exciting collecting of newcomers again. Jorge is not on the roster, not is he likely a long term starter. Mejia is not new this year. So , your argument is the fans will be excited by three relief pitchers?
  8. Mike Sixel
    Given they refuse to call up the future at all, why should I assume they have any confidence in the future?
  9. Mike Sixel
    Good luck selling tickets next year. Bad team, no young players added this year.
  10. Mike Sixel
    I'm so excited!
  11. Mike Sixel
    Quite the effort by this team lately. I would have fired the manager after the first inning sacrifice, why wait any longer?
  12. Mike Sixel
    with Trump, and not congress? wow.
  13. Mike Sixel
    they also need to hit, much, much better. While the core might be here, they need to play better. And, 1B, DH, and 2B are open in just 1.5 years....
  14. Mike Sixel
    you have blyeleven and Morris 100% backward in your assessment, btw.
  15. Mike Sixel
    heh, nice.

    that can be an issue at music fests, agreed. Still worth it for the right one. We are debating which night of this to go to: http://portland.projectpabst.com/ I'd like to see Father John Misty, but I really want to see Beck. Big Lizzo fan, but we've seen her.
  17. Mike Sixel
    I'd be at LALA for sure.....I love live music.
  18. Mike Sixel
    trade ya.
  19. Mike Sixel
    was just reading on line that teams have little incentive to actually win it all....that they are much more focused on other things that lead to making money (whatever those are).
  20. Mike Sixel
    agreed, including the Twins..... I think they should keep him at this point. If they plan to add a FA or good SP in trade, then keep him in the off season also. If they NEED him to mentor Berrios and other young pitchers, keep him. If they don't plan to add to the SP staff, then I'd trade him, because it's clear they aren't trying to win at that point.
  21. Mike Sixel
    that's a crime.
  22. Mike Sixel
    I like these lists and writeups, thank you.
  23. Mike Sixel
    that makes sense. thanks,
  24. Mike Sixel
    interesting. Not sure if serious. I'd rather the FO was great at their job, with constraints, than they are bad at their job. Or did I misunderstand the post?
  25. Mike Sixel
    wins? really? teams win.
