    May the 8th is my anniversary.......apropos of nothing really.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Who do this May you speak of? There used to be a Trevor May, but I assumed they traded him a few weeks ago?
  3. Mike Sixel
    I settled for ice cream and chief is right, you don't want the details. I too am behooved to admit I like this version of Hicks.
  4. Mike Sixel
    I either had food poisoning or a very fast flu last night. I could use some gelato.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Not the same people at all, I would guess. Nine errors indicates he may have some significant work to do yet.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Good point. They have up too much for Shields and would pay dearly when he left......That was the meme.
  7. Mike Sixel
    This move blocks AA OF from being promoted. That is about it.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Except they don't trade prospects. So their only value is as major league players.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Odds are one or two of those pitchers are ever good. I suppose if you want to b excited that maybe in three years KC won't have enough pitchers, that is your prerogative.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Right.....that was precisely my point.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Remember when Mauer and Morneau were the future, we just had to wait for them, then the Twins would go all in? Remember how they were going to carry them to the championship? The future is less certain than the present. This team skates plays for the future. Good luck.....
  12. Mike Sixel
    Where is Blyleven on your list? And Johan?
  13. Mike Sixel
    I'd be less worried if May was in there, and Peflrey was in the bull pen. I'd be more excited if Milone would just never face a time for a third time through the order. Just pitch him 5-6 innings, and enjoy life.
  14. Mike Sixel
    how'd those work out?* *rhetorical......
  15. Mike Sixel
    thanks to coming to my defense. At this point, I'd not deal him. but, if you think they can't compete this year or next year, you have to consider it, imo.
  16. Mike Sixel
    It took Plouffe 2 years, you want to punt the next 2 years of defense (if it even works)?
  17. Mike Sixel
    People on various thread, hence my original post......
  18. Mike Sixel
    Great player, no doubt.
  19. Mike Sixel
    This is aimed squarely at the people insisting they can't compete this year or next year........or even the year after that. Why keep him then? I'd rather they go get help, but if they aren't even going to bother trying to fix the bullpen......
  20. Mike Sixel
    If you won't trade for a rental or declining veteran (not sure why you think tulo is not still elite, but that's another thread), you will have to give up an awful lot to fix SS or C.
  21. Mike Sixel
    I'll see if I can find it when I'm not at work They are right up against the cap most years, that's not an issue.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Not true, Brock. I did an analysis. They sign one top guy, then a bunch for less than 350K. It is somewhere on another thread. Since Ryan took over, it is one big guy, several cheap guys.
  23. Mike Sixel
    I'd also be working hard to figure out what the bleep is going wrong with all my hard throwers in the minors, from Meyer on down. I'd probably ask Neil Allen to take a 3 week trip around the country. Frankly, you'd think your best pitching coach would be roving, and not here. Actually, that's what I would do first. Increases Allen's pay, and have him rove the minors.
  24. Mike Sixel
    By that logic, no guy that signed as a FA would ever change hands. Or, some guy drafted in round 41 would never be traded for. Maybe he looked healthy and good, and teams had more information and less doubt about that part.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Not sure Segura even costs that much, but if this is what Meyer is, I'd jump all over that. Good suggestion on him as a target, imo.
