    they must have chemical weapons, conventional weapons, and maybe dirty bomb capabilities. I'd guess they could hit China pretty hard if they wanted.
  2. Mike Sixel
    well, as he says, if he's writing this article, starting with Buxton makes sense: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/help-evaluate-some-of-the-games-worst-hitters/

    Oh, I agree for sure. but people keep saying there was NO MARKET for Dozier, and I fail to see how planning for one to materialize is a good plan (vs hope). I'd much rather Polanco was here the next 5 years, but at some point, they need to find pitching. And I have serious doubts they'll pay top dollar for it.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Agreed.
  5. Mike Sixel
    How do you propose they go from zero SP under contract for 2019, to five, if not thru trades? I have no idea what Polanco would net, people asked why others would be willing to trade him. I answered. i also never said MBL ready this year, or even next year....If you won't trade Dozier or ESan, and you can't trade any other player, is the plan FA?
  6. Mike Sixel
    you'll note that there is no technology in parks to do this at all right now.....you think self driving cars will work, but not a strike zone? I don't think we'll agree on that.
  7. Mike Sixel
    He might be better than low A hitters....
  8. Mike Sixel
    Because they have no pitching. None past 2018. Not one. And, you might believe Gordon or Vielma + a SP or two is more valuable.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Sucks. Good luck to him.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Telling IT what to do is easier than actually doing it....
  11. Mike Sixel
    let's hope that happens again!
  12. Mike Sixel
    I have some potentially bad news for you...
  13. Mike Sixel
    Well, they have the high bid, but they might not have the money yet....and Vikings and Twins fans know how that goes....
  14. Mike Sixel
    Big Polanco fan.
  15. Mike Sixel
    If Buxton has Becker's career, that will be bad. Very bad. How were Becker's previous 450 ABs?
  16. Mike Sixel
    Great article. Interesting that so many Orioles are there. New pitching coach, new philosophy, or just coincidence?
  17. Mike Sixel
    Luis Arraez
  18. Mike Sixel
    the message being what? don't accidentally do something? How does one control an accident?
  19. Mike Sixel
    I do agree with the sentiment that McCann escalated it, and yet it is Sano that gets the suspension....
  20. Mike Sixel
    Not to mention two major season ending injuries to a first round pick, and a guy everyone had ranked as a really good prospect.

    In general, it is harder to do it in the NFL, but I do believe some teams' DBs get away with more than others. I pretty much only watch the Vikings now. I am not opposed to human officials, I'm opposed to human officials when a: they intentionally call things differently for different people, and they do; b: they are really, really bad at their job, and some are and they still have jobs; c: they are hard to replace with automation, like most football or basketball calls. Calling balls and strikes is very, very, very different than calling holding or interference. IMO, of course. I actually watch less and less sports every year, partly over the enforcement of the rules being so uneven that it frustrates me. Golf, btw, has a very even playing field.
  22. Mike Sixel
    all those things are true, though. Being disappointed at what looked like 3 guys who might help this year, being this? That seems reasonable to me....
  23. Mike Sixel
    Turner wasn't fast? I must be remembering that part wrong. but yes, he did it all very well. And didn't have UPSIDE.
  24. Mike Sixel
    I don't know enough to know what I want, but I knew the Twins would take Gordon.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Like Trea Turner. I was going to post I think teams undervalue late droppers who didn't really change (unlike Kendall, who just can't hit this year).
