    And there will be some that say that no matter what, the FO is right. When over 1000 people are on this board, I'd expect there not to be universal agreement on much of anything. I would find it rather boring if we did.
  2. Mike Sixel
    it's almost like that wasn't the point of the article at all.
  3. Mike Sixel
    Nice intro!
  4. Mike Sixel
    We agree on a lot. Not this. And no one thought Dak would be that good. If they had, he'd have gone 1:1.

    Is the best pitching coach in AA, AAA, or the majors? Should not Berrios, at this point, be working with the best pitching coach?

    the reality is, most companies, let alone sports' teams, wait until something is broken ad hurting before making it better (or preventing the hurt in the first place). Indeed, because they don't want to be hasty or judgemental or abandon what they decided was right in the first place, they keep waiting even after it is broken, in case it turns back around. That's just how the world works for most of hte world.

    The Twins never were rebuilding. They were trying very had to be competitive.

    it's one of dozens of answers in a 2 hour chat.....do people really expect long, detailed, well thought out responses in chats to every question? mauer is the most overpaid singles hitter out there. Is that not true? He's overpaid, and he doesn't hit many HRs and not a TON of doubles.....
  9. Mike Sixel
    I agree completely. They prefer veterans to youth. 100% agree.
  10. Mike Sixel
    if only that had been the tone.....and not that questioning the FO was just wrong/bad/evil....If only we could have disagreements w/o straw man attacks so often.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Cardinals do something similar. But, hey, they stink at developing SP...even with later draft picks where it is impossible to find good players.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Their assessment of Berrios was that he was ready last year. He wasn't. How were they correct? Excellent appeal to authority though.
  13. Mike Sixel
    yes, because one thing Berrios lacks is proper motivation....
  14. Mike Sixel
    And the scouts.
  15. Mike Sixel
    i think he's suggesting that he can't learn jack poop about getting MLB pitchers out by totally outclassing AAA hitters.
  16. Mike Sixel
    I'm not going to argue that the ones you don't like are great cinema..... 4 and 5 are the best movies, no doubt. I kind of liked 7, but I understand why some didn't like it as much as me.
  17. Mike Sixel
    He didn't do nothing. He signed Belisle and Breslow. And Tepesch.
  18. Mike Sixel
    While I too would prefer that they not start platooning Kepler at this age.....giving him 10 games off, and all of them coming against lefties, that makes sense. And yes, Vargas should have been on this roster from day 1. But, since I can't scout him in AAA, I have no ability to make that argument.

    I was looking at Berkshire this week also. My plan is to buy bitcoin after it's next dip. But with Russia saying they like cryptocurrencies, will there be a dip?

    World Naked Gardening Day is Saturday, people.
  21. Mike Sixel
    Careful, sounds like you are questioning the all knowing FO.
  22. Mike Sixel
    We can only judge them on their actions. I'm not sure what this FO did to "build a pitching staff". Isn't this the same pitching staff as last year, other than Tepesch? If the new standard for questioning the FO is that we have to actually scout the minor leagues, I guess I can stop coming to the site.
  23. Mike Sixel
    I was just told several times yesterday that the bullpen was fine, that no one deserved to be promoted from AA to AAA, and that "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". Glad to see I'm not alone in wondering what the plan is.
  24. Mike Sixel
    What does "very careful" mean, do you think? How long would he have to be the best IL AAA pitcher to be called up, to protect him from whatever they are protecting him from?
  25. Mike Sixel
    Well, it was really a comment about him thinking he can do what hasn't been done since humanity first walked the earth.....
