    shoulder impingement sounds bad! Good luck.

    http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/a-more-selective-miguel-sano-is-crushing-it/ Travis lives in CLE, I believe, so when the Twins are there, we should get some good articles!

    I have no issues with the Gordon pick at this time. It would be great to have Trea Turner instead....but no issues.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Makes sense, actually.

    KLAW just did his Insider ranking of players under 25 in the majors. You'll never guess whose ranked higher! Buxton number 8, Sano number 21. There are more great players under 25 than you'd think!
  6. Mike Sixel
    KLAW just ranked Buxton the 8th best player under 25 in the majors based on his super high floor, and if he can hit the even higher ceiling.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Agreed.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Do you see a Machado or Harper or Sano? I don't know if there is an elite, sure fire, hitter either (well, maybe some 1B types).
  9. Mike Sixel
    I've been predicting Wright for about a month now. I've also come around, and personally want Wright. But, if they take Greene, Wright, or McKay as a pitcher, I'm good with that.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Great last line!
  11. Mike Sixel
    Well, I'm pretty much banking the wins at this point, and not shifting my expectations for RoS by more than a game or two..... And yes, A LOT rides on Berrios and Santiago at this point (I'm assuming ESan is a 2).
  12. Mike Sixel
    Yes, it is all anecdotal. Just like the "don't increase innings by more than 20%" thing is. When you actually run the numbers, and don't just look for cases that confirm your hypothesis, these things don't hold up.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Ah, got it. That's fair. I have no idea if Buxton can hit, so far. I hope he does, though.
  14. Mike Sixel
    .210 isn't significantly better than .082?* *note, hard to say which numbers I should quote, but that seems like a pretty big difference to me.
  15. Mike Sixel
    It appears that markos did some great work on this.
  16. Mike Sixel
    With the collapsing of the pool sizes, I just don't think it works anymore. Plus, a 1B 1:1? Ugh. Please no. If they think Royce Lewis is an elite prospect, it would be ok with me, under the OLD rules....but I just don't see it working under these rules.
  17. Mike Sixel
    And he'll cut off his beard and hair? Maybe.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Please no. Please. NO. What if those players aren't there?
  19. Mike Sixel
    Agreed, that's a good use of SP for now. Very much agreed.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Brandon vs the Ringer! Cage match.
  21. Mike Sixel
    yep, just guesses, and no, I don't think he stays in Washington. See the reply below your's and above mine, for one reason why.
  22. Mike Sixel
    We have heard of some out for the year..... There used to be a sheet here with all the rosters, haven't looked lately...
  23. Mike Sixel
    Agreed. Lots of good words from him there that make you feel a lot better about him as a leader. So much of what a manager does is not visible to us (like in game decisions are).
  24. Mike Sixel
    I would bet NYY (though maybe not with the stupid facial hair thing to keep '60s and 70s hippies from killing us all), Red Sox, Dodgers, Cubs, Astros, Rangers right now.... It also makes some of the proposals in the "extend Sano" thread look pretty silly.
  25. Mike Sixel
    I agree he's not giving the defense enough credit for the run prevention. Also, I think he's underselling that they don't have any/many black holes in the lineup right now. They may only have legit big time player, but most of the players are at or above replacement level. That's a lot better than some other teams. I do generally agree, I don't think they are legit contenders this year. Hopeful they change my mind, but I think they are a 78-81 or so win team now.
