    I literally have no idea who they should hire. There are just so many unknowns about how a GM/POBO really works, and what constraints their owners had/have them under.....I just don't have enough knowledge about any of them to have a solid opinion.* *which is probably true of players too, but that doesn't stop me.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Ya, but that far down you are seeing things worse than drow....
  3. Mike Sixel
    Weren't we talking about Ervin Santana, who is only signed for 2 more years, and is in his 30s?
  4. Mike Sixel
    Well, not walking under a ladder has real logic....I do that also.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Pull up Fangraphs and compare the two. Very similar. Had Hrbek decided to keep playing another couple years, I would bet their WAR would be nearly identical.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Really? wow.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Is hockey still a thing?
  8. Mike Sixel
    facts, Seth is using facts to make a point! made my day, sir, made my day.
  9. Mike Sixel
    I was only talking about the hitting...... The Blue Jays fired the guy that basically built that team...
  10. Mike Sixel
    fad? what does that mean, exactly? your whole thread is, well, I don't understand your point......
  11. Mike Sixel
    Funny, I always compare Mattingly to Hrbek....
  12. Mike Sixel
    Great updates, thanks!
  13. Mike Sixel
    great intro....btw, I do own a business selling stuff.....but I don't think I've ever pushed it here. Shaklee, waaaaaaaay too close to what some relatives tried to do....sigh....
  14. Mike Sixel
    Does it matter if they are "better" next year? Really? go young, like in 1982....
  15. Mike Sixel
    He'll be 26 next year.....by the time they are out of options, he'll be 29 or 30. I don't think it matters in this case. I do think you could maybe squint and justify that, maybe. It would not be what I'd do, not given the catchers they have.
  16. Mike Sixel
    The only way to justify this, imo, is to keep Rosario in LF and Kepler in RF, their long term positions. I actually think that is defensible.
  17. Mike Sixel
    I don't think that's what he said, is it? He said they have one of the worst catching situations in the majors, and can't find room on the roster for a 25 year old (who I think will be 26 before next season starts) on the 40 man this September because of a roster crunch....
  18. Mike Sixel
    I actually think this was their plan: Sano=40 bombs Park and Dozier with 25 Plouffe with 20ish Rosario, Mauer, ? with 15-20 I think they wanted to be the Orioles/Blue Jays....but it didn't work out. I really believe that was their plan, hit a boat load of home runs and outscore the others with Santana, Hughes, Gibson, Duffey, Nolasco being a "good enough" rotation.
  19. Mike Sixel
    If only we could.....
  20. Mike Sixel
    Well, apparently Garver is going to AZ....so, ya.....
  21. Mike Sixel
    Remember that Garver thread, where people said we should patient, he'll be in MN in September....good times.
  22. Mike Sixel
    so cut Centeno? Or Suzuki? He's a FA..... It makes zero sense to not have Garver on this roster in Sepbtember, zero. The only constraints are self induced constraints.
  23. Mike Sixel
    sometimes you need to take a step down, to move in a new direction, which is better than the path you are on..... People do understand that, right?
  24. Mike Sixel
    Right now? yes, yes it is. If decent means top 15, yes. Don't forget, they also need RPs badly. If I squint, and assume it all goes well (when it hasn't any year but last, in the last 5), then I can see it.....but that's not the same as expecting it.
  25. Mike Sixel
    if that is their plan.....I'd rather bet on Bridgewater leading the vikings to a SB win this year, than the Twins being in the playoffs next year.
