    Signed Datone Jones. I assume he plays DE some, and some DT in passing downs. I doubt he plays LB here.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Fair, we probably disagree some on the veteran thing and how ready a RP needs to be. No biggie. To me the blunder has been repeatedly filling the RP corps with guys w/o options, then being unwilling to move one and send guys back and forth. But, across the league, pitching is getting younger....except here, where a guy has to be perfect in the minors to get a chance. On a rebuilding team.

    Like they did last year when they called up, um, 1 player before September they had drafted who had not been up before?
  4. Mike Sixel
    I don't see JT on the list either....
  5. Mike Sixel
    I think weighted average takes ABs into account.....which is key.
  6. Mike Sixel
    I've been trying to find that listing for all the teams online, where can I find it? thanks!
  7. Mike Sixel
    Mauer? Plouffe? Suzuki? Dozier? That's 44% of the lineup. And, they signed a 29 yo DH. So, they planned on 55% of it.
  8. Mike Sixel
    I'd still rather go young. They didn't really go young, did they? It took them nearly all year to call up one RP. And, yup, Berrios sucked. But, he got a taste, and he should be better this year, and in 2018 and beyond when they might compete. It's almost like people refuse to acknowledge teams and young players struggle in a rebuild.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Fair, but last year counts. And, they returned negative or no value last year. That's really bad, and unusual in today's NFL.
  10. Mike Sixel
    because Polanco gets on base, and Buxton doesn't?
  11. Mike Sixel
    It's May 1, the Twins have lost all three of Vogelsgang's starts, after he goes 5 innings and gives up 3-4 runs in each.....and Berrios is doing what he did last year in AAA. What do you do?
  12. Mike Sixel
    I have no idea, I don't watch teh college or HS games.

    EVERY playoff team had 1 or more starter from last year's class. Treadwell caught 1 pass. Alexander embarrassed himself. Beavers was rated one of the worst over reaches by two sites last year, and didn't play *much* despite a historically bad OL. Why should I feel good about it?
  14. Mike Sixel
    Yay, what a youth movement they have! I agree, that's the likely roster. I feel no encouragement this team is moving forward at all.

    it means that when I am reading a chat, that I assume the chatter is responding fast, and what I'm seeing is something off the top of her head, and not some well thought out, 4 day effort, to answer a question. So, it's usually an answer that is close to correct, if not exactly precise in the answer.
  16. Mike Sixel
    /thread maybe /internet
  17. Mike Sixel
    I take most of the responses in chats as directionally correct, but not precise, since it all happens rather fast.

    A positive thought on an injury (edit, and on Byron): Scott 1:15 Is Kirilloff getting TJ a cause for concern? It's quite rare for an outfielder to get the surgery. Eric A Longenhagen 1:16 Maybe you worry he doesn't have the great, RF arm when he comes back but he was drafted where he was because of his bat and that should be fine. O Dizzle 1:26 Which former top prospect do you think will have a big season this year? Eric A Longenhagen 1:26 Buxton
  19. Mike Sixel
    Philip 1:05 How many players in this years upcoming draft do you consider 55+ FV right now? Green, Kendall, Faedo, Bukauskas, Wright maybe? Does Hall/Royce figure in? Eric A Longenhagen 1:07 All of them have 55s+ right now, Wright the one of the group that on the fringe of it. Faedo has been just okay this year but it's still early, Bukauskas has been dominant and has moved up. And then the pop-up name you all should know is Austin Beck, if you haven't yet heard the name. 1:08 plus or plus-plus runner, plus arm, big raw power, potential top 10 pick from NC high school.
  20. Mike Sixel
    You snowed in?
  21. Mike Sixel
    I would much rather they sign a LB and CB, and draft a WR (assuming they keep Thielen).
  22. Mike Sixel
    I want him to make it, but at the same time, I don't want more awful puns. sigh.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Where are the shortages in your league? If you cut an OF, are there many OF available?
  24. Mike Sixel
    It happens at work, where I am not logged in and am anonymous, I'd guess.....it is also happening on the main vikings site I go to. Very odd indeed.
  25. Mike Sixel
    You mean this part? Independent of the concerns about the health and delivery, I think Romero has a mid-rotation starter’s repertoire. The concerns about the body, athleticism and delivery add to the pool of risk. If he can get another healthy season under his belt, Romero could be near the top of this list next year. did you actually read the writeup on him? Because it's positive, other than the injury risk....
