    huh? they've spent their allotment on IFA, not "big". I have no idea what that means. And, that allotment is tiny in the scheme of a MLB payroll.

    Last year, several of us called for Rogers to be made a bullpen arm at the beginning of the year. Everyone on the planet knew that was his future, but it took time to do. No idea why. I suggest moving Turley to the bullpen, and calling him up. I suggest calling Buesnitz back up. I suggest using the assets they have in the most productive way, not leaving them in the minors and hoping they become something they are not ever going to be. Start there, and see what happens. But using Breslow does nothing for the present, and nothing for the future. It's, frankly, not explainable.
  3. Mike Sixel
    someone expected Breslow to be a key contributor? That person should be fired right now.
  4. Mike Sixel
    If half hit, that's a lot of hits! They've given themselves a chance to get better, imo. They still have more assets. They could get this to 12 or even 13 this year. Unlikely, but possible.

    I thought FTM was aggressive compared to the league and the Twins, and it appears that is true. Would be nice if they were mildly so with AA pitchers that continue to dominate that level...
  6. Mike Sixel
    Well, Berrios pitched on teh side with the MLB ball. I hope they are having Turley do that also.
  7. Mike Sixel
    well, about a page up I basically said Play the young guys over and over......so I'm with that plan given where they are in the rebuild.
  8. Mike Sixel
    He's bad. He should not be pitching for a team that thinks it might be buyers. Breslow back on the roster, so there is no bench? Really? That's the plan from a FO that supposedly knows pitching? Everyone's fear of bringing up young players is maddening to me. They've drafted and developed 1 pitcher in like 10 years that is a starter (we hope). It's time to completely change their approach. I suggest promoting good players to a level that challenges them, or even the majors. and no, Granite should not be in the 2 hole right now. How can anyone say that with a straight face?
  9. Mike Sixel
    If he hit that as a SS, that would be an above average player. It is hard to see it right now, though.
  10. Mike Sixel
    That went well. Or at least predictably
  11. Mike Sixel
    Because Haley isn't available?
  12. Mike Sixel
    Let me know when this front office makes their first good pitching decision.
  13. Mike Sixel
    that is a great Radler for sure.
  14. Mike Sixel
    This is a true winner of a post.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Hopefully you won't see him in FTM next spring either, at least not in A+ ball.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Agreed. It's the one move I doubt anyone can make a good argument for at this point. I might not like some other moves, but I can at least see the arguments on the other side.
  17. Mike Sixel
    We have not been there yet. Maybe next time my wife has a client over there later in the day I'll meet her there. I am going to assume it's German....we almost went to Otto and Anita's the other day, but went Mexican instead. Been there?
  18. Mike Sixel
    I am not surprised he's on the 60 day. This FO does do some things better than the last one for sure. The DL usage seems better to me, for example.
  19. Mike Sixel
    see, the smart ones, those ones can be posted. See up 1 post as an example.
  20. Mike Sixel
    And Breslow up. It's just like a trade!
  21. Mike Sixel
    With Hughes to the 60 day DL, who is the long man if Colon blows?
  22. Mike Sixel
    is that an idea, or did that just happen? edit: ugh. nm. just saw it. buy, hey, don't worry, they'll cut Breslow or Belisle if they are bad, really....
  23. Mike Sixel
    Performance.
  24. Mike Sixel
    I'm impressed it is FTM, actually. Good luck to him and the Miracle.
  25. Mike Sixel
    this space reserved for all stupid puns.....go ahead, edit this at your will, and put them all in here. If that doesn't work, then they probably weren't meant to be on the thread.....
