    Collapse of the middle class.....partly. We likely won't agree on this. I'm not claiming they are perfect, but thinking they are the reason wages are down, and jobs are going over seas? Hahahahaha.
  2. Mike Sixel
    I haven't even seen the first one. Any good?
  3. Mike Sixel
    I had fun, but I think my expectations were really high, given all the love for it. One of my son's friends must have seen it a dozen times......
  4. Mike Sixel
    I think everyone is taking this too seriously.....
  5. Mike Sixel
    Having just watched Fury Road.....that much over the top is too much. Maybe I'm old, but it either needed way less, or way more, over the top.

    I liked 5 armies more than the fight scenes with Smaug in movie 2....
  7. Mike Sixel
    Plus what else? Because that's not enough.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Wow, I just clicked on run differential for last year. wow, the Tigers were bad. Wow.
  9. Mike Sixel
    What I wouldn't do is help business kill unions......but dang, that $20 I pay in dues is killing me!
  10. Mike Sixel
    I think that is a good theory......
  11. Mike Sixel
    What will the Twins' record be if not everything goes right? Like, Sano has a slump, and is terrible in the OF, Park can't hit MLB pitching, and Santana is terrible in CF and Buxton doesn't hit in AAA? All of the analysis here is "everything will go wrong for this club, so they'll suck". That's true of every team. As for what they should have done this offseason......why not try to win one more year? Those contracts are not super tradeable, so they have those guys. should they have just sat there, and done nothing?

    As dessert......or just eating.....aged gouda. But, most any cheese.

    Another great read.

    I don't know many Trump supporters, but the ones I do know are all in on the xenophobia, and "not part of Washington". I find it funny that they are all well employed, but feel like "immigrants are stealing our jobs". Which, I guess, is something USAians have felt for their entire existence. Fear is a funny thing, really.

    I predict Wade is in A+ by June/July. He can get on base and hit and field.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Great read. Not in love with giving up Gonsalves, but that is probably a fair trade. Now we need to work with Goin and Molitor to figure out how to best use the SP / RP group. As the one formerly known as Mike Wants Wins, I'm not sure what I could do after that! There isn't much out there to go get. The bullpen is now set, this year and probably in the future. The OF is pretty much set at this point, this year and in the future (thank goodness we still have Kepler). 3B is set for the future. That really means that SS, 2B, C, SP are the areas to think about for the future. Right now, I would not make any realistic changes.....so you'll have to wait until next offseason or the ASB for me to make any more moves.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Great interview! thanks to both of you for doing it.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Except that does also not appear to be the plan. Odds any of the young relievers are here in April or May?
  19. Mike Sixel
    Stalker.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Without a trade, this is likely it, other than the 30% chance Buxton is in AAA, and replaced by one of the veterans they signed to a minor league deal.
  21. Mike Sixel
    Sub Polanco for Gordon, and I do that deal. That means your deal might be fair......I'd like to keep Gordon, frankly. Also, don't the Brewers have a SS prospect? Take out Gordon, put in Polanco and Rogers?, and I'd do that. Not sure that's enough, frankly. All those wanting to wait for more certainty......that increases the cost. Now, if TR was willing to pay that, it might be worth it. Does anyone think this FO trades a TOP Prospect for a 30 year old catcher? I don't.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Haven't they been quoted as saying he was brought up before he was ready? I think they traded Hicks because they had NO CATCHERS other than Suzuki, and wanted a catcher. I think it has nothing to do with April, May, or June CF next year.
  23. Mike Sixel
    That reminds me, I need to sign on and cancel HBO NOW until GoT is back......
  24. Mike Sixel
    Movie 8 was just delayed. Not sure I can make it through the day now.
  25. Mike Sixel
    I do agree with this, but I'd guess if Buxton is in AAA, one of those guys is in the majors. That means one has to be cut, or sent to AA. It would be VERY frustrating for the AAA OF not to be that alignment, if Buxton is there. Imagine the outrage if/when Kepler or Walker is in AA to star the year, so they can protect three AAAA players.......
