    your contention is that someone is going to offer more than a top 10 pitching prospect in the future?
  2. Mike Sixel
    So, don't add more prospects, because adding 1-2 good ones from trading Dozier won't fix everything? So, basically, do no moves, because no one move will fix everything? Is that your argument? If not, help me understand that last sentence, please. I guess we'll find out if the young guys play. Plenty of people expect Berrios in AAA to start the year, to work on whatever Neil Allen thinks he's missing. If they do that, and he stays down in AAA for long, I can't imagine my interest in this team will increase. For a rebuilding team, not much rebuilding is going on.....

    I think you missed my point. If you won't trade him now just for JDL, you won't trade him in 6 months or a year for only that.....so, if the point is, hold him and trade him later, who is going to offer JDL+ a legit prospect + one more piece? I'd guess, at this point, no one. You and other are saying they can trade him later, I'm asking why/who is going to offer a top 20 prospect+another top 50-80 prospect+another prospect?
  4. Mike Sixel
    Well, De Leon and at least 1 more legit prospect and one more prospect, other wise it's not worth doing.... And who has excess JDL types to deal, and needs a 2B?
  5. Mike Sixel
    There aren't may MLB players left right now, from what I read.
  6. Mike Sixel
    as diehard and others point out.....odds, what are the odds they are offered more than JDL going forward?
  7. Mike Sixel
    You also have the side of not trading, and the SP staff not having enough guys that are good over the next 5 years. And Dozier walking, and getting nothing but a 2nd or 3rd round comp pick (however that works now).

    My main beef with Span for Meyer was that Meyer was 6 foot 9, and you can count on 1 finger the guys that tall that have been good. But yes, I was opposed to a 1:1 deal. I don't like a 1:1 deal here either, but I'm wondering if that's better than nothing. Also, people learn over time, and my thoughts are evolving. Heck, they are evolving over the last month, as I think thru the ramifications of not trading Dozier. It's really about trust, do you trust the FO to ID a legit SP in this deal. And odds. I think I liked the Span deal, but admitted I knew nothing of Meyer, and that we could only judge if the GM was right after the fact. I'm not in love with saying that....but I think that's what I said. OTOH, I think a GM should be held to a higher standard in this realm than a random guy posting on the internet, so outcomes should matter, especially if there is a pattern.
  9. Mike Sixel
    top 10-20 prospect in the game (if I am reading the posts people are making here correctly), at SP.....good luck with that.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Who is going to make a better offer than De Leon + whatever?
  11. Mike Sixel
    Are you arguing "you can't fix it all, so fix nothing", or am I reading this wrong? If trading Dozier can fix 1/3 of the problem, wow!, that's a lot of the problem. If you aren't arguing that, what, exactly, is your argument that you are making in these posts?
  12. Mike Sixel
    Is every team's list that uninspiring?
  13. Mike Sixel
    Is it weird I don't eat there at all?
  14. Mike Sixel
    How does English pass Granite or Wade to be a backup in this system? Hopefully he gets healthy.
  15. Mike Sixel
    I think having teams there is a mistake. now, when the games don't sell out, you have closed off one of the largest markets from having games on tv.....but whatever. I'm losing interesting in the NFL...
  16. Mike Sixel
    Seriously? That's awful. Just terrible.
  17. Mike Sixel
    JT Snow 12:22 Hey Eno - do you see Buxton fulfilling all the promise this year? Chances on a .280 season with 25+ homers and 50+ steals? Eno Sarris 12:22 I'm pretty down on him. So many whiffs. Mechanics so messed up.
  18. Mike Sixel
    BL27 12:02 what to expect about Miguel Sano in 2017 ? 35 HR - 90 RBI ? Eno Sarris 12:02 Too early to hang the injury tag on him, so yeah. Bork 12:05 How do you predict the Twins/Dozier saga ending? Eno Sarris 12:05 A trade, probably to the Dodgers.
  19. Mike Sixel
    which is why you need more SP prospects, not more bats....
  20. Mike Sixel
    Yes, but if you can do that for 2 years, and get better at football....might be worth it. That said, they won't get food/training/etc. that they would in college...not year round.
  21. Mike Sixel
    The Mariners are going for it, given their limited payroll and farm system....
  22. Mike Sixel
    Of course it won't matter, but it will be even harder if you don't add 2-4 WAR in a trade.....If someone thinks I, or anyone, is arguing one trade will fix things, they are arguing a straw men.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Once again, the longer, earlier thread is shut down. I don't get it.
  24. Mike Sixel
    money is a reason most businesses do things....
  25. Mike Sixel
    You really think that's about the stadium, and not facing the worst pitching staff in baseball?
