    I can't comment on my thoughts on this, given my job.....but there are some betting big on HC profits, and a smaller number of commentors I've read saying bad things....
  2. Mike Sixel
    That's my going in assumption also, so I guess those two are in order. Even then, they might keep him for his leadership of the staff, if he's good at that. Then again, Santiago and Gibson aren't rookies.....so who knows.
  3. Mike Sixel
    I think Atlanta and KC are the least offensive teams left for me. I'm pulling for them, I guess. Please, please not Sea or NE, please.
  4. Mike Sixel
    But that has nothing to do with his actual value to other teams.......nothing at all. He's not worth less because they have great depth, because he can be dealt to 29 teams. It may or may not be painful to them, but that is because of other players, not his actual value. And, I don't see the Twins doing DeLeon and nothing else that matters, I think they take their ball and go home if that's the offer.
  5. Mike Sixel
    But DeLeon has intrinsic value, regardless of the depth....because he could be traded for other stuff, not just Dozier. His value is really about his value to OTHER teams.....just as Dozier's is, frankly.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Ya, I have no issue holding onto ESan, I would just probably deal him now or at the deadline. Depends on the offers right now.
  7. Mike Sixel
    I guess I was responding to "maybe we shouldn't have expected more" which was pretty much the post I responded to...... 1. Trade Dozier 2. Trade ESan 3. Sign a flyer (or two) RP 4. Sign a 4th OF 5. Cut Dan San those are not in order, just things I'd do/have done.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Everything? They have made 1 change to the worst team in baseball......that's hardly ANY thing, let alone everything.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Not to mention the "unbiased" officiating.....
  10. Mike Sixel
    I don't think 1 game went my way this weekend.....I was trying to decide who, among the remaining teams, was least offensive. Having friends all over the country means most teams have fans I don't want bragging.....
  11. Mike Sixel
    Those are not predictions..... They just say what would happen IF he got that many at bats. Predictions come later.....
  12. Mike Sixel
    I know someone who is a professor at WMU.... He and his friends think the guy is a great coach, if a bit over the top....
  13. Mike Sixel
    Kendall would need to strike out a lot less for me to be interested.
  14. Mike Sixel
    If I ever look like that, just shoot me....
  15. Mike Sixel
    Ok, that was funny! thanks,
  16. Mike Sixel
    To be clear, I know nothing ...
  17. Mike Sixel
    Oh ya, now I recall.....but still, thanks!
  18. Mike Sixel
    Links to your lists.....please.

    This, all this.

    Twins' Zips projections just went up: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2017-zips-projections-minnesota-twins/
  21. Mike Sixel
    I don't LOVE any of the Braves' pitching prospects all that much, from my desk in Oregon....
  22. Mike Sixel
    Mike: Has the outlook on Berrios dimmed at all? Any clue on what we can attribute the control issues to? Klaw: His fastball is flat and straight, and I think in the majors he tried to pitch away from contact more. I have to take a break for that phone call – it moved 1 to 2 to 1:30 – but I will return in maybe 45 minutes to finish the chat. *neither of those Mike's is me.....
  23. Mike Sixel
    Mike: Seems like the holdup on the Twins trading Dozier to the Dodgers is the isistance on getting 2 MLB-ready prospects from the Dodgers. Are the Dodgers being unreasonable by trying to hold on to both DeLeon and Stewart? Klaw: I don’t think that’s an unfair ask for the Twins, but that would severely cut into the Dodgers’ starting pitching depth, and I think the result would reduce the Dodgers’ potential gains from adding Dozier.
  24. Mike Sixel
    That, and as Bonnes pointed out, there has been exactly one SP as tall as Meyer that has ever been any good..... Oh, and Meyer is still a prospect, let's see what he does for the next few years before saying he's never going to be good. I still think they messed with his head pretty good the last few years....but as Bonnes points out....
  25. Mike Sixel
    By that logic, no very good to great team would ever trade a top pitching prospect? Is that what you are arguing? I'm just trying to understand here...
