    And what does moving the infield in have to do with Grossman and his fielding not being indicative and not mattering? At all? One is strategy/tactics, one is a sloppy/bad play because "it wasn't important to give his best" at that time, at least I think that is your contention. I also have no idea how this devolved into whether or not going deep in a game is helpful to the team. No idea.

    Trades are part of how you acquire talent. Every winning team uses that path.

    so, what do you want? trading legit multiple prospects for Gray? trading mediocre prospects for ok RPs/rentals?
  4. Mike Sixel
    No chance he costs that much.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Stupid Astros.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Adding an innings eater doesn't do much, if the goal is to win the division. One thing Molitor has done well is, mostly, not wasting his good RPs in bad games.
  7. Mike Sixel
    what does "buy" mean to you, Seth? Gordon and another top piece for Gray? Marginal prospect for a RP? something between?
  8. Mike Sixel
    "we" don't, actually, when assessing how good a player is. "in fairness" implied that it wasn't important to assessing if he is a good player or not, imo. Maybe I read that wrong. What did "in fairness" mean? And yes, I very much am bothered by "another gear" in that situation, since you are pretty much saying he didn't care/try all that much there, compared to other times. Also, "pitch to the score"? Years of analysis has been done on that, because that was Morris' point....and the data is clear, it's not really true.

    With about 100MM to spend on free agents if they want, maybe more.
  10. Mike Sixel
    As predicted, he was sent down to get another player up for 10 days. This wasn't a demotion.

    Miinor league players are almost never traded for other minor league players. There are a lot of theories why, but it is what it is. So, I doubt we'll see Garver moved for a minor league player. Frankly, I'd have him in MN as utility guy/catcher/ph/dh vs lefities. But I have my doubts.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Exciting for sure!

    You realize the Yankees traded off players, while playing .500 ball, to get all those excess minor league players, and have a system considered better than the Twins (before this year started), right? I asked in another thread, what price, for what upgrade? Like, 2 of their best prospects for Gray (who isn't nearly as good as Quintana)? Or, a mediocre player for a mediocre RP or two?
  14. Mike Sixel
    Would it? Maybe arizona wanted a guy now, and they would have traded for someone else. Also, he left the game after his hand was hit by a pitch. Could have happened as a tiger....
  15. Mike Sixel
    For two months of a corner out fielder, of which numerous are available?
  16. Mike Sixel
    clearly that proves he should pitch the 7th inning.....duh.
  17. Mike Sixel
    You think he was lazy because they were up five? Is that the context? I'd argue he was lucky it wasn't a tied game, not that he knew it wasn't a big deal due to the score.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Breslow seems like an obvious candidate.
  19. Mike Sixel
    cool. One thing, I struggle with "average age" since most really good prospects get promoted, and older guys that aren't good enough repeat levels. But I've never seen a good way to compare players to other players on similar tracks (college, actual prospectness, etc.)
  20. Mike Sixel
    I become a green skinned ninja that gets to date a hot actress?
  21. Mike Sixel
    A true mentor!
  22. Mike Sixel
    uh, no, the eclipse, which I guess I can just google that, brb....
  23. Mike Sixel
    we hear about the clubhouse a lot from some posters...... How do we think players feel about the FO giving starts to a player that is doubting he should be in teh majors anymore?
  24. Mike Sixel
    It's possible, but there was clearly an argument being made that there is no correlation.
  25. Mike Sixel
    What would really happen if I looked at it for 5-10 seconds w/o special glasses?
