    same guy, copy and paste question (I hate that): Aaron 1:07 Question re: Berrios: Whiffs are largely coming from the four seam fastball, while the secondary pitches (curve and change) are producing below average whiffs. You selling -- relative to current YTD production and in-year valuation -- performance as unsustainable? Eno Sarris 1:08 Curve is getting 15% whiffs compared to 11% average. You're right that the four-seamer is the most impressive there, but he's at least at two pitch guy and the change gets a ton of GB. Like a Luis Severino. http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/eno-sarris-baseball-chat-62217/

    this is the time people assured me promotions would occur. I remain hopeful.
  3. Mike Sixel
    Well, I'd have him in AAA right now.....so we agree on that part for sure. It is, after all, the middle of the season, and he was good in AA last year.
  4. Mike Sixel
    What special treatment? He's been suspended, and then he gets his job back. That's pretty much what happens in every industry. heck, in most, he's not even suspended at all....

    Gonsalves might "only" be a 4/5, but he's going to pitch in the majors, and he's going to do so for a long time (assuming health). to me, it's that low risk of not pitching at all that matters.

    Ugh. But, hey, there is not white privilege, and most minorities don't face racism.....at least, that's what some 50% of the US thinks....according to polls.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Ya, I'd be curious what Brock and others say about SW books. So many in used book stores....
  8. Mike Sixel
    I have no idea why anyone is talking about .300 in the majors, that just doesn't happen for almost anyone in 2017...... 29 qualified hitters are doing so right now. 25 did so last year.
  9. Mike Sixel
    You think maybe the 87 Twins were an outlier, maybe?
  10. Mike Sixel
    There aren't many good FA pitchers next year.....I would love to see them go big, but there aren't many choices next year.
  11. Mike Sixel
    I couldn't make it past book 1 of Shannara..... the LotR books are really 1 book, but they wouldn't let him publish them as 1. There is a lot to like there, but there are long moments of boredom, imo. Really good books, important to the genre, but not my favorites at all. If you ever want advice on fantasy books, series, let me know....

    I don't see any reason to have Berrios come back out. That's exactly how/when Kintzler should be used. Good decision by Molitor.
  13. Mike Sixel
    We disagree it would be rushing him, that's clear.
  14. Mike Sixel
    then this is pretty much your pitching staff next year, plus a pretty mediocre FA......how will they win next year?
  15. Mike Sixel
    good post with data! thanks. I could be wrong, of course.
  16. Mike Sixel
    if we don't think he can help in his first year, that is even MORE reason for him to pitch this year some...
  17. Mike Sixel
    Wouldn't you rather have Gonsalves by then, if nothing else has been done?
  18. Mike Sixel
    The number 1 overall pick can't even make this roster......
  19. Mike Sixel
    I have my questions about Kiriloff (the Twins have to be aggressive? ), but this is the right top 5. No way Lewis can be ahead of a guy in AA who is playing SS and hitting like that. Maybe someday, when he actually plays some pro ball, or if Gordon drops off, but not now.
  20. Mike Sixel
    That was sarcasm....I predicted one run, not two
  21. Mike Sixel
    Portland, Oregon couple use a team
  22. Mike Sixel
    I was so off on my Berrios prediction.....
  23. Mike Sixel
    8-1 Twins, Berrios goes 7.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Since I have no idea what this means, it must be POD.....
  25. Mike Sixel
    Sano. Probably no other hitter. Possibly Santana if he pitches well the rest of the way. I guess Berrios has a shot also, if he's awesome the rest of the way.
