Wanna bet on that?
-
Yes, yes it is.
-
I'd guess he'll be in the minors for 1.5 years at most......so, 2019 or so. But ya, I wasn't talking 17 or even 18.

What if Sano's 3B defense doesn't improve
Mike Sixel replied to nokomismod's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
Agree 100% with this post. -
I agree, when you look, you can see them in that range. That will be a massive drop in talent in the first pick from what I assumed a couple months ago, when I thought they might fix their catching situation.
-
I don't agree. His number 1 job should be learning to hit by swinging.

Arod=Tiger (personality, women, not the PED stuff), yet people love Tiger......it's all about how the press talks about guys. I also could care less about the PEDs. And, apparently those that love certain PED users don't really care either, for all their sanctimoniousness (not here, on this thread, but around the web), what they care about is someone they've never met, and some vague feeling they don't like him even though they have never met him.

Fangraphs (and other national publications) on the Twins
Mike Sixel replied to Mike Sixel's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
Ervin Santana stuff.... http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/sunday-notes-ervins-feat-avisails-hands-gordon-gyorko-more/ -
I am on this train.

6-7th worst?
-
It has proven it? Wow.
-
Was Carlos Gomez the number 1 prospect in all of baseball at any time?
-
Who asked him to be KGJ? How about better than Butera, is that an ok request?
-
Well, this is a disappointment. Guy just cannot hit major league pitching at all right now. I hope he does eventually. A team that won't sign huge free agents suffers badly when it blues a pick this high. No need to believe he is a bust, but you can see it from here.
-
Huh. I bought and sold gilead last year, losing money. They back up?
-
Has anyone typed that?
-
Something has to change. It makes me sad to see this compared to so many other success stories of top prospects right now.
-
Rogers has two pitches, with an extreme platoon split. They needed a LH RP last year, and didn't call him up at all. It would not have stopped him from going back to starting this year if it was the right choice. May has 4 pitches, and was succeeding as a starter when they moved him. Those two are NOT like each other at all. Finally, at some point, it is more valuable to actually use a guy in the majors, than it is to wait forever for him to be something in the minors. IMO, Rogers should have been up , in a playoff race, when the Twins needed help. Instead, they didn't get 1 penny of value from him last year.
-
Or a car from Mauer Chevrolet (is it Chevy?). I'd bid at least 1000 for the right Chevy. This is a great charity, I hope they make a lot of money.

The Death Of The Ticket Stub
Mike Sixel replied to Cody Christie's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
I know it is probably lame.....but I use FB to recall what I did when now. As someone that just moved, and who is striving toward minimalism, it is astounding how many "mementos" I had in my house that I hadn't looked at in years. They were nearly all sold, donated, recycled, or thrown out. It is very freeing. I'm guessing most on this thread wouldn't agree. -
Brian Dozier really likes his own autograph! IMO, Some of these offer the glimpse: I have no real outside interests....... edit: Some clearly offer real insight into what they like, though. I like those baskets more. Yay for May! Kyle Gibson, Trevor May, Kepler, Hughes, Kintzler (got that Nike golf clearance going.....), Rogers.....those are my faves.
-
I almost called them that with the strikethru.
-
Fair on Boshers.....I think we are in agreement here.
-
My goal with the "house money" was to make 1-2% between now and 6-9 months from now, with some "certainty".....so I could have it available to maybe buy a house or condo......and now I've made more than 1%.....but have no desire to sell and lock it in.......still lots of dividends to come, and maybe more gains (or losses).
-
The Diaz one was the one I really didn't like.....from a flexibility standpoint. He either hits for extreme power, or we got nothing.....just did not like that one.
