    These are the RPs this FO keeps picking, over other options.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Based on that, how do you propose fixing the pitching next year, if you won't trade Santana or Dozier or anyone else? Because, they aren't signing a good FA next year.
  3. Mike Sixel
    which is why you call him up in a year you aren't a real contender, to get him exposure. Going to count on Gonsalves or anyone else next year from AA? Get them up this year to get a taste. Otherwise, you think they'll go with 2 rookies?

    giving up 4 runs in 4 innings.....was good? Huh.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Maybe no one pushed for it because he isn't a prospect...
  6. Mike Sixel
    Fans care about winning. If they make a good trade, and the team wins, no one will care they are gone.

    I didn't see any of the games. But I doubt I could make up my mind based one one game anyway. I do hate that his coach abused his arm, hate it a lot.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Of course the return matters.
  9. Mike Sixel
    ERA under 3.5? Good luck with that.
  10. Mike Sixel
    He's too good to trade, but the return would not be good.... Either try to win, or trade veterans. This half way stuff does not work. They are one of the worst pitching staff in baseball. This is another smoke and mirrors season. As pointed out, the Yankees were smart enough to trade off players last year. As for why someone would trade for him if he might tail off, the assumption would be they are playing for this year.

    Uh. Isn't that part true of all teams, that recent picks haven't delivered much? Being last over 17 years indicates nothing about process?
  12. Mike Sixel
    Have you looked at the free agent class?
  13. Mike Sixel
    Tied for last.... You aren't last by luck, over that length of time.
  14. Mike Sixel
    I still don't understand why s high school player is signing under slot especially a boras client. I would be good with him as the pick.
  15. Mike Sixel
    So, he is just going to defy aging? Not trading him until he has no value, while the team isn't in the playoffs, is how teams extend rebuilding longer.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Well written, as always. I agree with nearly all of it.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Count me in!
  18. Mike Sixel
    Skeptical scouts see him as a 3......that's not much skepticism! wow. sometimes, the best people, using the best process, don't product results that are expected.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Brave man, sir. I'd endorse that, if I knew anything about the players. Knowing what I know, I like the idea of the HS pitchers at 35 and 7..... I also love the Schwartz pick. It's like picking up a former top prospect that flamed out in the minors, only earlier. Dude was a top 10 pick after his freshman year.....
  20. Mike Sixel
    Really? Trout alone has 51. who is in those other rounds?
  21. Mike Sixel
    They do. And it is a bummer for them when he is wrong. side trek: I still can't figure out why Appel can't pitch. He had it ALL in college.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman.....meh. Not sure what I was expecting, but it was kinda boring. 13th Age RPG rule book. Love this game, should have been playing this variant of D&D. Flexible Golf Swing....very good book on stretching, which I ignored and just picked back up yesterday (before my 6 days golfing in the HEAT of Phoenix). Either going to read Think Like a Freak, or Red Rising next, I think.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Seriously? Being wrong sometimes makes you greedy or bad at your job? You really think his agency only represents or helps the elite?
  24. Mike Sixel
    Yup, I've soured on McKay as a pitcher. I'm on the same path as most others, I'll be happy they took Greene, Wright or Gore. Of course, I don't have dozens of scouts working for me and this isn't my job.....so I'll try not to be too disappointed if they take someone else. I suspect I'd fail...
  25. Mike Sixel
    It is so hard to say right now. We have no idea how/what/when this FO will act at the deadline. Without changes to the pitching, it is hard for me to see a good path to the division. The defense is great, and the hitting is quite good. The pitching? Um, not so much. So, w/o changes? The division? like 5%, imo.
