    done so liberal here I look conservative, but sure done see number 2 done Not sure any of that matters, frankly. As long as this nation is ruled by people that don't like knowledge....not sure how any of that matters.

    Why? For me, I want the best one available to pitch when most needed, not when they need a "save". That, to me, is probably Duffey. Plus, I think he's more suited to go more than 3 outs... So, why do people want to switch them?

    Oklahoma, Maine, Mississippi, Alabama. I think that's it. I might need to add Arkansas, but for some reason I think I was there for work some 20 years ago....

    Nick Turley, again. http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/the-fringe-five-baseballs-most-compelling-fringe-prospects-90/

    Long man? Those guys rarely play (well, maybe in MN they do). Keep him in AA until August, then bullpen in August and September, then rotation next year. That, imo, should be the plan.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Not for me.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Wow! what an intro! I think Oklahoma is one of 4 states I have not visited, btw. I think.

    Those are mostly the same people that said the Cubs and Astros weren't ahead of the Twins in their rebuild....as recently as this spring....

    That is not a sexy top 5, imo. Kiriloff hasn't played, and Diaz is a DH, maybe 1B. I do love Gordon, have since HS. And, one has to feel good about Gonsalves, but I'm not sure he's more than a 3 or 4. Unless they pick Pavin Smith, their first round pick this year will either be number 1 or 2 on this list the day he is picked. I'm hopeful that's Wright, and that they are aggressive with him.

    I have no issue with moving Hughes to the bullpen. I'd have Romero in the bullpen after the break, or in August. It's what the Cardinals would do. Get him acclimated some this year, w/o blowing thru a ton of innings. Then make him a starter next year. Trading any prospect for 1 bullpen arm right now is, imo, stupid. They are not good enough to be giving up the future. If they want to go get a legit starter and 2 bullpen arms, go for it. But trading for any RP at this point seems like folly and a bad use of assets. I'd rather they start calling up 1-2 young guys at a time, give them legit shots, and see what happens. And, Kintzler is the perfect "closer". Not the best arm they have, but good enough to get "saves".

    He looked so EXCITED after the triple play!* *note, I don't care, but it seemed funny to me for some reason.
  12. Mike Sixel
    He has so little self confidence, and needs reassurance so much, it is staggering.
  13. Mike Sixel
    I was thinking about this today, what can I actually do? I don't know yet, but sitting here typing angry notes on a baseball site isn't enough....
  14. Mike Sixel
    He's one of your catchers next year, probably.....
  15. Mike Sixel
    So Garver should be up, and on that path right now, I take it?
  16. Mike Sixel
    booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
  17. Mike Sixel
    seriously? cripes.
  18. Mike Sixel
    I want my 3rd best RP as closer, with the other two being free to pitch when most needed.....
  19. Mike Sixel
    Mid-July, after the draft.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Ya, agreed.
  21. Mike Sixel
    I'd be surprised if ANY team had guys ranked "low" that profiled as a 1 or 2.....if they profile that way, they would be ranked high!
  22. Mike Sixel
    hahahaha. good one.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Ok, that was funny.
  24. Mike Sixel
    I'd like to change my vote. I try to strike him out, and brag about it, never mentioning how old he was when I did so....
  25. Mike Sixel
    If I knew with 100% certainty he'd be Olerud, you have to take him. but, there is no way to know that at all.
