    then the Twins still lose....not sure why anyone thinks this SP and RP staff will be anything other than one of the five worst in MLB again this year.
  2. Mike Sixel
    I think Seth means he autographed them....
  3. Mike Sixel
    thank goodness......
  4. Mike Sixel
    it's not over til it's over.......just sayin'

    I actually considered that, what would be better forever, and I think number 2 is the right answer, but number 3 is the "best" of those feelings.
  6. Mike Sixel
    so glad you didn't disappoint me. but really, what kind of cocktail?
  7. Mike Sixel
    Gin, or tequila?

    take your ball, go home, lose 85+ games with perhaps the worst pitching staff in the majors? I like the way you think, sir.* *note, I am somewhat inclined to agree with you, but we don't know the offer. It isn't a switch, it's a dial. If it is close to "fair", and it gives them 2 pitchers they think are real, I probably do it if I have to swallow some pride.

    Man, that is a good question, sir. I initially thought number 1, but then I recalled how nice it is to feel warm and comfy after a long, cold, day.....and then I recalled the feeling of RELIEF after the third thing, and then I got hungry and realized I ate all my snacks at work, and I was confused....where was I? Oh, right, I choose number 3. Totally.

    Cutler 1:14 In a dynasty league setting would you use the projection for Thames to orchestrate a move with his value being high now or would you bank on those projections and see what he provides for your team instead? Eric A Longenhagen 1:15 I'd check on the projections for Byung Ho Park form last year and draft someone else.

    Andrew 12:56 Hi Eric, I just want to know what Scouts think about a quick delivery when it comes to starters. Watching the Video Baseball America had on Hunter Greene showed him having a tremendously quick delivery, which screams to me more of a bullpen arm, but I am not a scout so... Eric A Longenhagen 12:57 Scouts definitely noticed the pace of Greene's delivery because it is unique for a starter but nobody I've talked to is concerned about it and I don't think am either. It's not bad, just different. Different is okay for an athlete like Greene, he gets the benefit of the doubt because he's so special. *technically not a Twins post, but still....

    ASN 12:53 What are your thoughts on how Nick Gordon's bat will play in MLB? Eric A Longenhagen 12:53 Full report: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/top-24-prospects-minnesota-twins/ I think it will be a nice little hit/power combination for a SS, nothing crazy.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Or maybe they are a year or two further into the process, and have MORE prospects now, and the context is totally different than it was 1-3 years ago. Or maybe not, we'll find out soonish, I'd guess.

    Jerry Johns 12:28 If Hunter Greene comes out this spring and consistently throws 97-99 mph in starts, and the slider shows half grade improvement, do the Twins take him with the first pick? Eric A Longenhagen 12:29 If a prep righty is gonna go 1-1 then yes, that's what it looks like. I think the new regime scoops up a college arm, though.
  15. Mike Sixel
    really? wow. How is that good for development of pitchers?
  16. Mike Sixel
    Unreal. A multi-billion dollar industry, and they don't use the same ball in AAA as in the majors (probably other parts of the minors also). Talk about setting up players for failure....
  17. Mike Sixel
    Wait, is the weather the same everywhere, or perfect for there? because, ya, I vote no if there is much humidity.....
  18. Mike Sixel
    If the ball is actually different (why the heck would MLB do that), I'd want him here with certainty, learning with that ball....
  19. Mike Sixel
    What more would you want Berrios to do in AAA.
  20. Mike Sixel
    back to music, Groove is in the Heart, for pretty much all moods. It can keep you happy, or make you smile. As for weather, whatever Al "I still fly private jets" Gore says is good with me...... I think if we can control the weather, we go for 2 perfect days 1 time, then, when teh storms pay us back, we don't do it again......

    1:14 Ryan S: Buxton had a brilliant September. The pedigree is still there. What’s more likely: Another demotion or 20/20 1:15 Travis Sawchik: Buxton is one of the more interesting players to follow early in 2017. I want to believe. I’ll say 20/20 Travis is a new writer at Fangraphs.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Phil Hughes to the bullpen, where he dominates next year. That would be both a surprise, and my plan, unless he comes out throwing flames....
  23. Mike Sixel
    You think GMs, in 2017, care what coast writers or BA or MLB.com or FG says about prospects? Not sure I understand.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Agreed, the more I watch them, the less I like them, (but no one complains more than Aaron Rodgers).
  25. Mike Sixel
    Meh, I don't know any ATL fans.....even before I lived here, I knew obnoxious SEA fans, now? Now it is worse.....
