    The prospect guy for Fangraphs sees a league average number 4 starter. That would be a great return, imo. http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/scouting-new-twins-prospect-adalberto-mejia/

    Damn......just checked, apparently everyone else agrees on google......that would have been a lot of money in my pocket.... edit: I tried to buy options yesterday, but was not approved. I thought the earnings came out Monday, alas, they came out last night. Stock up 36$ a share.....sigh. 50% gain on the ones I was looking at....sigh....

    Well, it's not like he can do a lot else right now, is it? If you are going to criticize good moves, because they don't fix every problem, no one can win.... In no way would this one move change my thoughts on him, but it was a good move, and it should be acknowledged as such.

    "Best" lasagna ever was when my awesome wife made it for me and my friends that were at the coldest beer fest ever a few years ago........coming home to that was great.

    I'm trying to get approved to trade options......I really want to bet on Google. All the tech stocks are beating estimates right now.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Meh. Market doesn't care.....
  7. Mike Sixel
    Why is lasagna day in July? That makes no sense. Carry on.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Well, it was a good move, so it has to be a plus in my book.
  9. Mike Sixel
    I endorse this trade. Nice job.
  10. Mike Sixel
    They really need a hitting coach..... Or better players. Or both.
  11. Mike Sixel
    got it,
  12. Mike Sixel
    The game has changed a lot in those 29 years.....a lot.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Why are the Yankees doing that? They just traded Murphy to MN......Plouffe is hurt.....?
  14. Mike Sixel
    Ya, because he's doing such a bang up job with Buxton.....sigh. I get your point, but man....
  15. Mike Sixel
    John.....if being in the bottom third means you expect them to be bottom third in results, aren't you implying that the scouting department is no better than average, and that's ok? if your team doesn't spend big money, don't you need to be better than that to succeed over the long run? I'm pretty sure St. Louis picked in the bottom third in this time frame......
  16. Mike Sixel
    This is a hard thing to judge.......because I think development plays a role also, and as John pointed out, so does draft position. I do appreciate the hard work....and will have to give some thought on how to interpret it.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Thanks, I would have changed the title a long time ago, if I could.
  18. Mike Sixel
    I don't agree it is a laughingstock at all.....that's just not accurate, imo.
  19. Mike Sixel
    I wonder what a Buxton for Trea Turner deal might look like......how has Turner played in the OF so far?
  20. Mike Sixel
    No problem! There are a ton of threads out here. ya, he wasn't too complimentary last week either. He definitely has been consistent for every team.....do not hire a manager that has never managed.
  21. Mike Sixel
    that "study" is bunk......there is zero evidence that is true. But, the myth lives on. As for Duffey, sure, I'd leave him as a starter, why not? But, I think he ends up a bullpen arm next year.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Ya, after posting that, I started to reconsider.
  23. Mike Sixel
    i'd be more excited about Polanco if there was a place for him in MN.......but as it is, I don't see them getting much value from him as long as Dozier and Sano are on the roster. Also, is there any way you really think Jay is a Twin next year? That seems pretty unlikely, but not impossible, I guess.....
  24. Mike Sixel
    thanks, really enjoy his approach to answering questions.
  25. Mike Sixel
    And, another.... How much do you think Brunansky and/or Molitor have screwed up Sano and Buxton at the plate. Just leave them alone to get comfortable in their own way. It looks like Sano has regressed this year. Seems like all their rookies have a better track record in the minors and then lose it at the Major league level. Is it the coaching at the MLB level? I hope they leave Kepler alone and just let him develop. Mauers toast. Klaw.... Yes, I think it's the coaching staff, which is yet another reason I don't like the owner saying Molitor etc were staying. If the new GM walks in and says, hey, these guys are actively hurting our organization by mishandling players, then you freaking fire them.
