    Fair, though Brock is going to be cut as soon as they can.....so there may be a lesson there for both sides.

    I too think it will be hard to sign 3 FA OL. But a man can hope. I'd be happy with an older LT that was mediocre, a really good RG and RT, and a drafted C early. Then, hope you can draft an OT later that can develop. Like I said, a man can hope.

    hard to believe there is no video game thread here....nerds.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Probably not. If he can pitch at an elite level, teams will try that first. Because there are almost no number 1, and hardly any number 2, pitchers. IMO, of course.

    Rhodes already makes 7 or 8 MM....so shut down money isn't THAT much more, probably 4-5 MM per year. I would extend Sam, and try to get his number to 15MM per year......that would actually be a reduction. But, it would be what ok-average QBs get.

    I won't worry about the radar (as a predictor of success) for a couple weeks.....but he'll probably have to throw harder to be successful.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Rhodes get an extension also. I think some of that 40MM is for draftees also. Looks like Berger is retiring probably. I think they need 3 FA OL. 1 can be ok, but 2 should be good or great, imo.

    the right hand side has links to any stories on the forums. If you click on the list of all forums, you will see several that are not about the Twins.....
  9. Mike Sixel
    nope.
  10. Mike Sixel
    In the vikings' forum?
  11. Mike Sixel
    I do 5 when I first get out of bed. Then trying to do 2-3 an hour at work, though that's not easy in these clothes....then the rest when I get home. That's the plan on day 2....

    Thirty burpees a day is a lot of burpees for an old guy that never works out......
  13. Mike Sixel
    good points all around!
  14. Mike Sixel
    I also don't think the Sox will be making a change.....

    How does Hunter Greene compare to other recent HS RHP phenoms? Guys like Bundy, pre-TJ Giolito, and Taillon. KLAW: Nobody has thrown this hard except Pint, and Greene does it much easier. Giolito and Bundy had better secondary stuff at this age. Greene is probably the best athlete of this whole group. And he can play plus defense at short.

    I'd love to trade with Boston. They have some serious talent in AA and AAA. Rosario and Santana for Benintenientdodioosiodi* make it happen! *not sure I spelled that correctly, btw.

    Pete 1:01 Should Byungho Park owners rejoice or look for a sucker in our league to trade him to before he turns back into a pumpkin? Eno Sarris 1:01 Nobody's buying. Just hold and hope that something definitive starts happening between him and Kennys.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Eno's Hair Is 12:56 Sweet! Is Berrios capable of being a top shelf starter with his stuff or even if he figures it out is he going to be a 4ish ERA guy? Eno Sarris 12:57 I see top shelf upside. Floor is... real low.

    Would they? Batting order is shown not to matter all that much, frankly. A true advocate would realize that, and then wonder, other than a few tweaks here and there, if there are other things to worry about, and whether or not the general "comfort" of not too much change is better. I don't know, but I'm not sure an advocate of stats would necessarily endorse tons of change based on the handedness of the pitcher. Also, since pitchers rarely pitch past inning 7 anymore, 28% of all at bats will come after the starter leaves the game. What if the handedness changes for the RPs?
  20. Mike Sixel
    I read this same quote last year. And really only Berrios and Chargois came up. And it's possible one (or both?) of those won't start in MN this year. When do they actually go young? What does ready mean, exactly, because I read all the time we should not expect rookies to be good right away? Why should I want to see a bad RP or bad SP start, and not see Melotakis or Berrios? Frank Viola wasn't ready his first year or two, but they developed him in the majors. Why not do that with Berrios or some RPs?

    thanks,

    Can't wait for it to be on a "station" I get....

    Not goodwill. give it to an actual food bank/charity. Goodwill is a for profit company. I do like banana cream pie. Tomorrow is Make Someone Else Happy Day (not the actual name, I don't think)....how are you planning to make someone else happy?

    Only 7 qualified hitters in MLB had a .400+ OBP last year. Two of those did not hit .300. I think it unlikely Mauer joins that club ever again. Frankly, in looking at the list, why the heck did Ortiz retire? Dude was one of the best players in all of baseball last year, even as a DH only.
  25. Mike Sixel
    I thought it was funny.
