    when you first posted this.....I assumed you were talking about that particular game, not the season....
  2. Mike Sixel
    The Twins have 1 more HR than national league pitchers have.
  3. Mike Sixel
    To be clear, I don't think putting him out there is the worst idea ever......but I do think not playing him in the OF last year was a bad idea (I think I even proposed this before last year started).
  4. Mike Sixel
    Brrrrr. Gonna be cold out there. That's the true test of those with tickets.....

    Well, it's not like Park becoming available was a surprise. They must have scouted him, and known they would bid on him. It shows, imo, a complete lack of foresight and planning. Basically, we are giving them a pass for not knowing the trade market for Plouffe, and for signing a 29 year old rookie....as if all of that only just happened to them, and was not predictable at all......as if them taking those actions was not, in any way, their action. This all just happened to them, and it was not predictable, and there was nothing they could do about it.

    When your GM says it is the number 1 off season priority, and this is what changes are made, why is anyone surprised? TR is not stupid, he knew, and told us this bullpen was bad, and needed improvement. No improvement came, this is what you get.

    He effectively got a minor league start, pitching 4 innings. I'm not thinking this is inconsistent, yet.

    If only they had had a chance to play him in RF in the minors last year, but then, apparently, this wasn't the plan even 9 months ago.....that's the issue here. This was not the plan when last year started, otherwise he would have played OF in the minors some. The real question is, why did this become the plan? If this was even in the back of their minds, why not get him some time in the OF?

    Was on an airplane. I take it there were some defense issues?
  10. Mike Sixel
    Ouch. 20 games over?
  11. Mike Sixel
    I would guess to make the wild card, they will have to win 12 more games than they lose, the rest of the way. Maybe 14. That seems like a tall order.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Meh, it was a question. I thought it might be a typo, so I was checking........
  13. Mike Sixel
    No offense at all. It is a difficult stance fit me to take. Need on reading about zoos and city people, and how that can make a difference in empathy to animals, I have become less anti zoo over time.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Just once it would be cool if a top prospect was good right away, and stayed good. Maybe that is Sano, but it sure isn't Buxton.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Ryan says he won't play much? Mind. Boggling. Why call up an actual prospect to sit and do nothing? I do not understand.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Rosario is hitting second?
  17. Mike Sixel
    Milone.....most underrated pitcher ever.
  18. Mike Sixel
    I have to say, not being able to see these games seeks like a blessing so far. Just hiked in 65 degree weather, mt Rainer looming....
  19. Mike Sixel
    Post of the thread?
  20. Mike Sixel
    He is a huge Santana fan. We saw the irrational behavior last year, you may recall.
  21. Mike Sixel
    Awful use of the bullpen so far
  22. Mike Sixel
    Zero appearances.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Went to a party in Eden Prairie a few weeks ago......among the crowd, we were the only couple where both members were "white". While I would never argue that the area is diverse, it is more diverse than many of us think. I have no idea what that has to do with knowing anything about politics, though.
  24. Mike Sixel
    I will make a bet with you, that if it is just trump or Cruz vs Sanders, that you vote for Sanders......not that it will be......so we will never know.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Should be an interesting race all year long.....
