    his HR numbers and LOB numbers are really bad this year. All the other numbers look about the same or even better than last year or the year before. I'd expect his ERA and HR and LOB numbers to all get better as the year goes on, and for him to be at/near the top of the pitching contracts signed next year.

    Enlow being that low.......the Twins can't think that way, since they clearly liked him the best of all the day 2 guys, and bought him out of college.
  3. Mike Sixel
    all fair,
  4. Mike Sixel
    Agreed, skepticism is a good idea with prospects. I would bet we are pretty close on this one...

    I still can't figure out why Gausman is so bad. His stuff should play. Some guys just don't succeed for some reason. Other than he and Bundy, there isn't much there. I do agree, it's been amazingly bad. I know it would KILL THEM, but they have to trade Machado to reload, imo.
  6. Mike Sixel
    good point, which is why I changed my post later.... It's definitely got few good prospects at AA and AAA, and is loaded with guys very low in the minors that we don't know enough about yet.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Garver playing the OF is certainly interesting.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Decided to read Consider Phlebas instead of what I said above. Pretty good so far, about 1/3 thru. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consider_Phlebas

    I think our opinion on Rosario differs, he's a 4th OF, imo. I see both of those guys as similar roles to Rosario, just different skills that add up to around the same value.

    so, Grossman with better speed and defense? Like I said on another thread, Granite and Wade are the exact kind of prospects that are under valued across the league, that end up being legit MLB players (likely 4th OFers) for a long time, once given the chance.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Granite and Wade are interesting, they have skills that are often under valued because they aren't loud skills. I have no idea if they can hit enough or not, but I find them much more interesting than Palka. I think weak was the wrong word. I'd say "not strong enough, considering how high they have been drafting". Both Stewart and Jay not being anything close to what they could be is killing them.
  12. Mike Sixel
    How long does he need to dominate AA before moving up, in your opinion? I'm aggressive, I want guys moved up and challenged. Others are not.
  13. Mike Sixel
    And people thought he should be the 2nd piece in a Dozier trade!
  14. Mike Sixel
    Biggest disappointment: The Giants. Wow. Biggest surprise: Milwaukee and Colorado.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Ya, I can't have an injured RP in my top 10, no way. If Jay is top 10, this team is in serious trouble. Palka? Over rated because of his power, imo. Gordon Lewis Gonsalves Romero ... ... Kriiloff (this is all hope, no evidence) Meija Wade/Granite (they'll both play in the majors, imo, for some time, maybe not stars, but play) Diaz Rooker Enlow Garver After the top 4, I have little confidence there is a legit starter for sure. Still kind of a weak system, imo.
  16. Mike Sixel
    No moving Wade to AAA? How old is he now? There is no reason Gordon should spend all of next year in the minors. That's about 180 degrees off how Houston or the Cubs would run their rosters.
  17. Mike Sixel
    More resigned than accepting.
  18. Mike Sixel
    this is certainly true.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Kohl Stewart has no trade value, does Cabbage? Archer is going to cost 1 great and 2 good prospects.
  20. Mike Sixel
    In fairness, most of us wanted that when they really were rebuilding from scratch, and were criticized on this site then too..... Do people really think fans that post here all the time want the team in a perpetual rebuilding process? Really? Santana is 35, check out the long list of successful 35+ year old pitchers in history.....
  21. Mike Sixel
    NO CHANCE this is enough. No way.
  22. Mike Sixel
    I thought that tweet was updated to say to CR after starting out?
  23. Mike Sixel
    This is a great set of quotes, about coming to the US to play baseball.... http://www.espn.com/espn/feature/story/_/id/19625385/beisbol-experience-mlb-50-man-interview#/
  24. Mike Sixel
    That was disappointing. I thought the offense would carry them to at least 1 win.
  25. Mike Sixel
    I said it at the time, so not hindsight. And, it was about either going in, or not going in. They sat in the middle, as they usually do here. So, no, it had NOTHING to do with the overall finishing record for me. Not at all. But, thanks for putting words in my mouth that I never once said.
