    Nice
  2. Mike Sixel
    This would appear to make it less likely they promote anyone from AA soon.
  3. Mike Sixel
    I don't think service clocks are a big issue for pitchers. And if you never act out of fear, you never act.
  4. Mike Sixel
    I agree with Seth.
  5. Mike Sixel
    I also tried hard to be polite....I don't understand this at all.
  6. Mike Sixel
    I am not impressed.
  7. Mike Sixel
    That seems high to me, frankly. I forsee lots of hand sitting
  8. Mike Sixel
    Congrats to him! Very happy for him
  9. Mike Sixel
    Two top 100 guys is not stellar given how high they have picked. But I am a big Gordon fan.
  10. Mike Sixel
    For three days? Also, Garver won't play every day next year either. And it's not like either of them is young. So, no, for a few days, it doesn't matter to their development.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Bring unready, if true, is inexcusable. I really hope that their scouting and prep work is better than that. And, being able to pinch hit with granite or Garver would have been nicer than having that many pitchers.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Hoping to have some funds available next week
  13. Mike Sixel
    What a straw man to say anyone expected a WS contender in 4 months. Some of us expected improvement thru trade or free agency.....
  14. Mike Sixel
    Why would they trade for a mediocre rental hitter right now? That makes no sense to me.
  15. Mike Sixel
    I have been clear, those three should be in AAA, not the majors, right now. But they aren't finding 4 starters next year from outside the out that are any better than what they found this year.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Well, I don't think all of their nerves will calm down, but I do think that experience in dealing with the routine and emotion will improve with exposure.
  17. Mike Sixel
    that part makes it really hard for sure.
  18. Mike Sixel
    hence my statement that if very few are at that level, it raises the question, do the Twins feel that others would have spent that much on the player, since there are hard caps now, what you spend on one player matters more than ever. hence my statement that we need to see how much everyone got.
  19. Mike Sixel
    has anyone ever claimed that? Ever?
  20. Mike Sixel
    That is, imo, unfair. There seems to be a reasonable question in his comment. I can't currently find a list of all the signings, but if there aren't many at that level, it seems reasonable to wonder why they paid that much. The teams clearly think they can rank 15 and 16 year olds, otherwise their wouldn't be big bonuses given out, so it isn't that they are not rankable at all.
  21. Mike Sixel
    congrats to them both!
  22. Mike Sixel
    I would guess that yes, the pitchers are working with the coaches every day on getting better.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Not a real NBA fan, but it's amazing how the West is amassing the talent right now, and not just on the coast.
  24. Mike Sixel
    If this is true, then the Twins need 2-3 new SP in MN next year, from outside the org, and another 2-3 new ones in AAA, from outside the org......good luck with that.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Honestly? This is just like other parts of the world, where we present facts that a: have nothing do with the actual question; and/or b: are misleading at best.
