    prospects aren't traded for prospects, so that's not happening. If they deal Gordaon for less than 3 years of control, I'll start rooting for the FO to be fired. This team isn't that close.
  2. Mike Sixel
    he's not ready because he's not up? We don't know that. No one knows that. At least he should be in AAA, but this FO isn't promoting anyone right now.
  3. Mike Sixel
    It's hard to believe they had to pay overslot for a 22 yo. Let's hope he's fast to the majors.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Still trying to understand why Gonsalves is in AA.....
  5. Mike Sixel
    We have no evidence this FO will call up RPs from the system. Indeed, all the evidence shows otherwise. I don't get it.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Or we could list all the fast movers..... None of the guys you mention have his pedigree. Not even close. Fear its no reason to not take risks. Fearful organizations of any kind rarely win.

    every manager ever in every business, every person in every relationship, has biases based on previous data and opinions. It's hard wired into our brains. None of that implies the Twins are looking at those lists, but it is clear from their actions that they feel he's at best a backup. I'm saying that partly informed by their earlier opinions of him, just like in every other facet of life. Once there is a belief, it takes time/effort to over come that belief.

    Hmmmmm..... As a hot take, I agree. With serious thought, I'd say they are fringe contenders if the first happens. I think they need AT LEAST 2 RPs. All that assumes health. I looked at the FGs leaderboards, not many SPs you'd want on teams likely to make trades, but we'll see.

    I feel Escobar is undervalued, because he was not previously considered a "real" prospect. It's hard to change an image.
  10. Mike Sixel
    was it in the ringer article? I didn't look yet....am working....
  11. Mike Sixel
    this is fake, right?
  12. Mike Sixel
    I believe Plouffe was just cut...
  13. Mike Sixel
    great, you beat me to the water jokes I was working on....but then, I think my joke may have been even more Boron.
  14. Mike Sixel
    I was disappointed how little matter there was at the beginning of the book.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Gotta be his last batter, right? edit: and, yup, he got him out. nice outing!
  16. Mike Sixel
    You must have the newly published version that just came out...
  17. Mike Sixel
    I do. Not close, even.
  18. Mike Sixel
    It really confuses me to see your real picture, compared this avatar, so I don't know if I know you or not!
  19. Mike Sixel
    Is that chunky peanut butter? Gross. Man.
  20. Mike Sixel
    that one burned my eyes
  21. Mike Sixel
    I thought the elements were earth, air, water, fire?
  22. Mike Sixel
    ugh. that one is Alexa worthy for sure....
  23. Mike Sixel
    New research on 538 and the Ringer say, maybe the baseball is to blame for all the HRs! https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/it-looks-like-the-baseball-is-behind-mlbs-power-surge/
  24. Mike Sixel
    Grossman clearly suffering the Fangraphs jinx today!
  25. Mike Sixel
    You have to love the Berrios just came back out and threw the bleep out of the ball. He's legit. I'd be open to trading anyone not named Gordon from the minors, if they can find a SP that is a 3 and under control for 2+ years (hahahahahahah, dreamer).
