    I don't think we eat the same lifestyle.....
  2. Mike Sixel
    Agreed. Makes no sense
  3. Mike Sixel
    I'm not either, but you wanna bet if this happens more, or less, this year? You do know the history of college coaches abusing these guys, right?
  4. Mike Sixel
    why was he in the game for 110 pitches?
  5. Mike Sixel
    Today is national strawberry day. Yum. In every way, raw, in drinks, cooked over desserts, in sauce. Yum.

    Zack 12:07 Which players do you think will have breakout year this year? Travis Sawchik 12:09 Buxton is a popular pick, and I think he's going to establish himself as a quality regular with more room for growth....
  7. Mike Sixel
    TD traffic would rise, imo, if the lineup was that "interesting"....
  8. Mike Sixel
    That was a great article, especially the comments from the Rangers and White Sox. Especially from the Rangers....
  9. Mike Sixel
    He has the potential to be an ACE, and you'd not use him as a pitcher? I'm not sure I understand, but am open to reading more...
  10. Mike Sixel
    That's one heck of a lineup.
  11. Mike Sixel
    This. 100% this. Secrets in sports has to be one of the sillier things on the planet, imo.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Right, it's not like his minor league career was great, and he then fell off. He is, imo, what he will be. One of the best baseball players on the planet, but not good enough to be a MLB player on a great team.

    I'd be happy with a decent placeholder at LT, if they spend real money on RT and RG (or C), and draft an OL or two early. Me? sign an ok LT, sign a really good OG, draft a RT and C (who can also backup OG if we keep our current C) in round 2 and 4 or so. Draft another OT or OG or C in round 1 or 2 in the following year. Quit passing on OL until round 4....

    Wanna place money on that De Leon statement? I'm not sure how we'd measure it, given the Twin will be in A and AA ball, and De Leon will be in AAA and the majors....and lose his prospect status.

    I would never let my kid go to a college program if he would be a top HS pitcher/1st/2nd round pick. Most of the coaches don't care about the athletes at all.
  16. Mike Sixel
    I try hard not to say "we" at all. I'm not part of the team. sometimes I slip up. The fact that people think they are part of the team? That does lead to some tribalism, and we've seen people do stuff like destroy century old trees on opponent's campuses. The whole idolization of sports and players is a huge issue for schools and priorities, but I'm trying to avoid "politics" on this thread.....

    from last week: 12:36 Mike: Are you investing in Kennys Vargas? With Park out of the way and a clearer path to playing time, he seems like a cheap source of power as a bench/util bat. When I compare his batted ball profile and plate discipline to Sano’s in 2016, there are a lot of similarities with HR/FB% and hard hit rate. While I agree the ceiling is higher for Sano, the avg pick for Sano via NFBC is 116 and Vargas is at 460. That’s a big gap, especially in redraft leagues. 12:36 Eno Sarris: He’s a great sleeper. Big Barrels% guy. Actually doesn’t reach much either. Just has some issues with contact, but not so bad that he can’t play in the bigs.

    An entire article on Buxton: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/the-top-prospect-who-technically-isnt/
  19. Mike Sixel
    Me? I like Wright or Greene right now, in February. I want UPSIDE. If Kendall could get to a 5 tool player (i.e., he could make contact), he'd be the obvious #1 choice. But, if you can't make contact, that's an issue.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Bad idea, imo.. If you want him to be a great pitcher, you have him concentrate on pitching. And on not getting hurt also.
  21. Mike Sixel
    It's a win for the other team every time a 30HR guy bunts, imo.
  22. Mike Sixel
    put the ball on the ground=180 degrees opposite of what the math says to do....
  23. Mike Sixel
    Molitor blaming others for bad outcomes.... That's leadership? Where has he discussed his failings sry all? He managed just as badly in year two as year one. Who can point to improvements?
  24. Mike Sixel
    Convenient to blame others for your lack of results.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Haven't checked. Maybe I won't...
