    No casual fan is coming out for Keaschell. Zero. This is about injury and desperation, imo.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Except ohtani had already played at this level, that was my point..... He'd already showed he could. Either way, I'm excited Keaschell is up, and hope the finally have a real hitter. And that they just let him play every day.
  3. Mike Sixel
    You're comparing him to a proven MLB, MVP, player coming off surgery?
  4. Mike Sixel
    That would be amazing.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Exciting! I'm looking forward to him hitting over time, but expecting some adjustment time.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Intrigued.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Your last paragraph is depressing
  8. Mike Sixel
    Blown calls happen all the time. The home umpire was not good.... And those mattered also.
  9. Mike Sixel
    I mean, I'm hoping they get all those! TE is likely a need also, I agree. I just think S is harder to learn, and if they get one this year, he's fully ready in 26.
  10. Mike Sixel
    LB over TE. Pace is not a three down guy. I'm also hoping safety, because they need speed, and need at least one the following year.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Good points! Oddly, all pitchers. Interesting.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Verse you say.....
  13. Mike Sixel
    He's no spring chicken. There's zero age and control reasons to hold him down. There may be other reasons.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Also, love, love, this kind of content.
  15. Mike Sixel
    I don't think there is a legit 3b prospect in St. Paul.... I'd still promote DeAndrade and free up SS in A ball.... I get both those suggestions are aggressive, but they need a backup SS in Minnesota and a healthy 3b also.... Though I think Lee is that 3b, in not certain he'll hit enough.
  16. Mike Sixel
    We're talking about trading veterans while they have excess value and are still helping the team. That's what both those teams do, especially Tampa. Kepler would have been traded two years before he left, for example. Same with polanco. Jax this year. I'm not saying that's right or wrong....
  17. Mike Sixel
    That stings. JFC that's a lot of money.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Seems like an ideal candidate to use to acquire a catcher or SS....
  19. Mike Sixel
    Have.
  20. Mike Sixel
    The latest in the year no first round pick has been traded, I believe. I agree, we'll see two or three RBs in round one. Three QBs. You have to take a chance on QB if you don't have one.
  21. Mike Sixel
    Miranda got hurt at Target after being demoted.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Untrue. They haven't traded one veteran early. They never traded Kepler. They are nothing like those teams. edit: see below, they've traded pitchers .....
  23. Mike Sixel
    What proven SS was available to be traded for? What would you do with him while CC was healthy?
  24. Mike Sixel
    And stashed them where? What team has an extra proven MLB SS in AAA that is ready to play every day? What would you have done with that player while CC was healthy? I don't think this is easy at you think. Most backups are unproven or not good. Especially on teams with budget limits. They have Lee and Castro. It's unrealistic to get another guy, who is MLB proven, and have him sit around.
  25. Mike Sixel
    They have Lee and Castro. Did you want a third backup SS? On the roster? Or to trade for a AA guy? Like what should they have done? Who comes off the forty man, during the off season?
