    Like Dave Stewart.....from player to GM.... and yes, I know Stewart coached some...

    it's funny, for its utterly perfect depiction of parts of the interwebs.

    Really, I can't recall one person saying WAR is perfect. As a matter of fact, they mostly all say they are tinkering with it, wondering how it can be better, and that in any event, it is NOT the only thing to think about. We are clearly reading different websites.

    Good luck to him and the employees and the team!

    You should read the Jeff Sullivan tweets on this....

    Can you name one? I can't. Not one, not anymore. That quote was from a long time ago. Can you find a recent one, from anyone in the stats community that matters? Because I can still find them from the other side, every day, most broadcasts.

    Frank Viola proved it year 1 also.....

    On this we agree 100%. Also, it involves better self awareness of where you are in the journey, which you said, but I am saying again, because this is one of the root causes, imo, of why they are where they are. They really self assessed poorly recently.

    And my real point was I kind of want that college ACE, if there is one, now, more than Schartz (and I really don't need another 6 year HS project at this point....they are drafting high enough to take a great college player).
  10. Mike Sixel
    I guess I should have said acquired, but your point remains. (don't forget they drafted Schwarber). I have previously pointed out that the Cubs were rebuilt very quickly due to astute (and lucky) trades and signings. But, that can't only be luck. (mostly) Same group did it in Boston. It's why the Twins should be trading Dozier and ESAn, imo.....

    If leadership fails to act*, because they fear a fan backlash, that's bad..... *on anything, not just this.
  12. Mike Sixel
    I note that there were no quotes from old timey people.....I think I didn't see any.
  13. Mike Sixel
    I have long been on the Schwartz bandwagon, but if there is a college ACE available, I think you go there...... but remember, the Cubs plan is simple. Draft great hitting, sign or trade for pitching.....we shouldn't ignore their success, imo.

    The pancakes are super thin....more like crepes, so no, the veggies are put onto half, and then the pancakes are folded over....

    so, he is going to outhit Sano next year? That was one of the options, right? You are also certain he'll outhit Park or Vargas? I'm not. As for the original question, I don't know what I'd do. He won't be here when they are good, but he's still goodish, and they can't trade him. The only reason to release him, imo, is if you really want Sano at 1B starting now. Otherwise, I probably keep him around.

    I make these incredible Asian pancakes with veggies and sauce that I love. So good for dinner. I don't usually eat pancakes for bfast any more.....I am trying for less carbs in general (not good at it....but trying). But, at home, many Sundays the boys were growing up, I made peanut butter pancakes and bacon. Great mornings, great great mornings.

    Not watching tonight. One thing I've learned in the last few years.....don't do things that make you unhappy. Life is too short.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Terrible. A good reminder to live a life that makes you happy, and to not put off joy.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Did you change the shirt to 105?
  20. Mike Sixel
    it's the fans too.....sigh.
  21. Mike Sixel
    this reply needs both a love and hate button...
  22. Mike Sixel
    I don't buy the "rookies shouldn't be in high leverage situations" argument at all.
  23. Mike Sixel
    hahahahah. so glad I am on mute right now
  24. Mike Sixel
    I still haven't watched last year....it costs all of $2 an episode on Amazon, and we know the day I buy the season is the day it goes free.... Obviously, given my age, Baker has a special spot in my heart, but Tennant was amazing.
  25. Mike Sixel
    vikings, game of thrones, dr who......other than that, it depends on what people recommend, or how dang tired I am
