    Interesting take: https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/the-st-louis-cardinals-picked-the-right-league-to-cheat-in/

    My RW friends love what is happening so far. They'll love it even more after he nominates a RW for the Court that will strip our freedoms from us.
  3. Mike Sixel
    Can Grossman play 1B.....that could be the way to keep him on the roster. 1b/dh/emergency OF.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Or maybe they are rebuilding, and want to use their young players, you know, like a certain team in MN should be....
  5. Mike Sixel
    100% this. If they don't give Park and Vargas a shot this year, someone else will next year (Vargas). Why not, I don't know, see what you have in those two (or at least one of them) and see if you already have a good player?
  6. Mike Sixel
    I haven't given up on Jay, but it doesn't look stellar where we sit now.
  7. Mike Sixel
    The elite defense is getting older and older, you can't just keep them together for, what? 3-5 years? Rodgers sat for how many years before he played? Look, I don't love Bradford, but they aren't finding a QB this draft (unless they just don't draft any OL early, again, and get lucky).....then you are going to what, hope there is one there the following year? that's the issue, really. If you don't sign him, you are basically praying/hoping you get super lucky that a: there is a QB that falls; b: he's good right out of the gate, great, really, because Bradford is good.

    Not quite firable, but pretty darn close, IMO.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Oh, they got off light, no doubt.....not losing a first rounder is ridiculous. But there is no evidence of harm to the Astros, that I know of.....
  10. Mike Sixel
    btw, I'm with Dave, Justin is one of my favorite players and people.
  11. Mike Sixel
    He hasn't been healthy since 2014.....what is the payoff for this, exactly? Whether he has a year left, or not, isn't there value in seeing if Vargas (who can be controlled for several years) is good or not? Or Park, even?
  12. Mike Sixel
    I love the thought that anyone protesting doesn't have a job......could he be more mistaken if he tried?
  13. Mike Sixel
    If we do this enough, is it like a ponzi scheme?
  14. Mike Sixel
    We do know we are trying to build for beyond this year, right? How, exactly does Justin help with that? Maybe he's that mentor that their current vets aren't, I guess.....but you'd think that maybe COL would want him back if he's all that and a bag of chips. I don't get this at all. Whether Park or Vargas can play or not, it would be nice to find out this year, so they can either play them or move onto other options when it matters.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Not following judicial orders, you'd think the RW constitution lovers would be screaming bloody murder by now.......hahahahhahahahaha
  16. Mike Sixel
    You do realize how hard it is to find even a service NFL QB these days, right? I mean, sure, Brady somehow fell, can you find me many others, across the whole NFL, not just that playoff teams you picked? With a decent OL and elite defense, Bradford is enough, imo. People say this all the time "position X can be found anywhere, see all these anecdotes I can show".....if that was true, teams would be trading from the top of the first round for a 2nd and a 5th....but we all know that doesn't happen.... Is Matt Stafford not a franchise QB?
  17. Mike Sixel
    Hmmmm.....I would not have given picks to the Astros, I would have just taken them away from the Cards. This does seem unfair to the AL teams......
  18. Mike Sixel
    It was evil when Obama did it (or good, if you were on the other side), now it's good (or evil) when Trump does it. Frankly, I think there is space for this type of action. I just don't know how much space.....
  19. Mike Sixel
    I like your creativity, I just don't like the specific idea. The team, imo, is not a playoff team this year, and should be seeing what Murphy and Garver can do.
  20. Mike Sixel
    I think the point is, Posey is ELITE on defense, and he could stay there even if he doesn't hit as well. And, I'd bet that Mauer as, at best, a mediocre framer....
  21. Mike Sixel
    thanks! for some reason, my insider isn't working today! So, still top 100ish....not great for that pick, but not a total loss either.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Sonny 1:44 I believe we've just seen the future of Buster Posey and it looks a lot more like Joe Mauer's age curve than I'd like to admit. Please give me reasons this won't be true Travis Sawchik 1:44 Nah. Posey has a much different body and the glove is still elite ... Mauer was not an elite receiver
  23. Mike Sixel
    Maxwell 12:59 Where do you see the twins in the next 5 years? Travis Sawchik 1:00 Are Sano and Buxton stars? It starts there for me. Would have loved De Leon there. Who is going to pitch? Lot of uncertainty
  24. Mike Sixel
    Neither does Mike, frankly. At first, there is no way I would have done that. Now? Now I'm not certain. I still think I say no, but I'm much more tempted to say yes than I was. I just don't see a path to competitiveness this year, and I think they need all the SP prospects they can get, as they aren't outbidding anyone for a legit SP in FA probably. But, man, one prospect? Seems light to me. And, yes, I just post what I see
  25. Mike Sixel
    Ian Connor 12:49 Apparently the Dodgers were considering trading Alex Wood to Seattle for prospects(most likely Gohara+), then flipping them with De Leon for Dozier. Would you have done this or the 1 for 1 Forsythe deal? Travis Sawchik 12:49 I'd rather have Dozier
