    At the risk of quoting myself a second time today.....dam$#&^^&$#, I got sucked in again.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Especially if you made your commitment under 1 set of rules, and they changed them....
  3. Mike Sixel
    I've read several say that McKay is ready to pitch in the majors right now.....so, next year would be great, and potentially not unrealistic.
  4. Mike Sixel
    they are literally 2 different measurements. Their disagreement discredits neither. Is scoring in archer wrong, if one tournament measures the number of bulsseyes, and one measures how close to bullseye for the winner? Of course not.

    Great work. Is that really her face, or the face she wants to see, or the face the cherub is letting her see?
  6. Mike Sixel
    not that htey "had no choice". No one said that. I think "encouraged" would be the word. Or "accepted". I don't know if I believe that or not, but it isn't pure BS, is it? Fans, especially some fans, think they are "part of the team", and that yelling at the opposition is helping the home team. I don't see anyone excusing racist behavior at all. Point that out to me......

    No, as I said above, I don't watch the games, hence why I asked the question above. And, yes, you and Brock said the same thing. He's doing a better job of not swinging when he shouldn't. Which, btw, is great!

    I better not ever have that body....
  9. Mike Sixel
    I love this reply. Where is the love button.
  10. Mike Sixel
    right. One says "we value X when looking at defense". One says "we value Y when looking at defense". It doesn't make their similarly named stats "wrong". It says they value different measures of variance. Just like some people like OPS and some like BA.......doesn't make either measure "wrong".

    Rather than copy every question..... A ton of draft questions in here, some certainly relevant to the 2nd and 3rd picks of your favorite team: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/eric-longenhagen-prospects-chat-52/
  12. Mike Sixel
    Heh, at the risk of quoting myself, and looking even more like a self centered..... Is that a quote bubble by his head in the background? What does everyone think it says?
  13. Mike Sixel
    GoDucks 1:06 Has David Peterson surpassed Seth Romero as the best college lefty available in the draft? Eric A Longenhagen 1:07 After McKay, I assume? Probably depends on how clubs view Romero's off-field issues. On stuff? No.
  14. Mike Sixel
    That's fair, to question the precision of the measurement. but to say that the average fan can eyeball pretty much only the plays in the games of her favorite team's games, and somehow be able to compare Sano to every other 3Bin the game seems more off to me.
  15. Mike Sixel
    That's why I love them. If they can stop Amazon from besting them, it's hard to see them ever losing this space. which is only going to grow. to be clear, eventually every company loses.....I just don't think this happens anytime soon.
  16. Mike Sixel
    I'm fairly certain I'd tell the person that they were being an idiot, and should stop. Depends on how drunk, big, violent they seemed.
  17. Mike Sixel
    My favorite part of this, and there are SO MANY options..... The dude looking very sadly out the door, like, "why can't I be in that picture"....
  18. Mike Sixel
    I don't know. Would I call security because someone was yelling racial slurs? Maybe? I'm not certain what I'd do.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Right, that was sort of my question up thread....is Buxton just not swinging the bat right now? No one walks this much.
  20. Mike Sixel
    amazon has tried twice to get into this business, and Shopify beat them back both times. It's why Amazon is not in that business.
  21. Mike Sixel
    I can't say strongly enough how much I believe in this company. Great plan. Long term play. Amazon has been unable to beat them, when they take everyone else down.
  22. Mike Sixel
    She also has a short skirt on! What an era.
  23. Mike Sixel
    A suit and tie to ride a snowmobile!
  24. Mike Sixel
    Ha, no, I totally meant Berrios! Sigh. No one has ever put up that number in a full season. My issue isn't the valuation of defense, thought I do have questions about it. It's that it's really convenient for people to diss WAR, then use a WAR argument about Buxton's awesomeness.... Also, the statements of just alternative facts to justify the hatred.
  25. Mike Sixel
    And yet, I read all the time "if Berrios can just hit 230, his defense makes him valuable!". Uh, that's basically a WAR argument..... Putting aside how it is calculated, it's a WAR argument. And, it greatly values his defense.
