    is there a fork strong enough to fix Suzuki? I don't know....

    Try the young guys. Try the young guys. Try the young guys. Try the young guys.

    A nice interview with Kyle is on Fangraphs. Recommend it. http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/kyle-gibson-on-pitching-to-contact/

    As we have seen here over and over, contract status matters.* *I doubt that's just here, btw.
  5. Mike Sixel
    I get that, I don't get why...... why do people care who is in a museum? why are people obsessed with princess Di all these years later? Someone explain people to me!
  6. Mike Sixel
    Meh, he's out of baseball, isn't he? Are there people arguing he should be allowed to coach/manage/GM (other than other teams, who would love that)?
  7. Mike Sixel
    If anyone thinks they have a good idea what this guy will be, well, good luck with that. He's every bit an enigma.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Loved the snake part. Trying hard to refrain from commenting on the Mauer part......

    I don't get why people a: care who is in a museum or not b: can't stop talking about Pete Rose or Princess Di This is not to disparage the thread, I get why this exists. I just don't get why people care a lot one way or the other.
  10. Mike Sixel
    I don't get why they'd deal him at this point.......they have decent playoff odds, they should not jeopardize those for 2020 or 2021, imo. I'm not suggesting trading to improve this year's odds, I'm suggesting now is no the time to make those odds lower by dealing for a guy or two in A ball......

    No one here said it, but your last paragraph admits that "society" says it. Every time someone tries to publicly acknowledge a reality that programs help some people, but not everyone.....well, it doesn't go well for their political future.
  12. Mike Sixel
    I'm much more worried about social issues than fiscallness. Not even close. Money w/o basic freedoms and good education systems is useless. Having been an employee of the Republicans, and met many of their strategists, I can assure you that dumbing down the education system was/is 100% part of their strategy.
  13. Mike Sixel
    I'd not hesitate to include Berrios in a deal for Sale, not sure what else I'd be willing to include......it would cost so much, I'd probably not do it.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Mine would be to cut guys over 30 that weren't good last year, and are terrible this year, and see what you have in Achter, Oliveras, or Meyer. Or, Taylor rogers, who has almost no chance to start on this team.....move him to the bullpen and have him dominate lefties. draft, trade for, whatever.....they have options better than a specialist who is terrible at his job.
  15. Mike Sixel
    how about a righty that doesn't have an 8.22 ERA? He is supposed to only be put in positions where he has a clear advantage, and he has an ERA over 8......
  16. Mike Sixel
    of course both parties do this.....which does it more? Which is opposed to marriage equality? Which wants to literally outlaw the F word in public? Which wants to ban abortion, even if the mother's life is in danger? Are you saying that one is not worse at this than the other?
  17. Mike Sixel
    Of course some people will be left behind. Is that a reason not to try to bring more along to a better future? I don't think so.
  18. Mike Sixel
    What position is Levi playing now? and, man, I am pulling for Wimmers.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Move Pelfrey to the bullpen. He is not signed for next year, he should be the odd man out. They need to really get more and more data on Milone, and they should give May every chance to succeed. OTOH, if they think they can win this year, then I don't know the answer.......but it isn't a 6 man rotation. They already have too many pitchers on the roster.
  20. Mike Sixel
    I have no idea why the Sox would do this, without some kind of utterly insane overpay. As for trading in the division, if you think it is a fair trade, you shouldn't care if it is in the division or not, imo. No way the Twins should do this, they are pretty much the WS right now, they have the same weaknesses, just managed to sequence their singles really well in May.
  21. Mike Sixel
    I'm shocked that a Twins' coach would say Duensing is fine, just shocked. they clearly love they guy. As we know, love is irrational..... Not sure why they insist on drafting and developing RP, if they won't call them up...... edit: And, this bullpen was bad from the beginning, it is well past time for change.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Just once it would be cool if they called up a guy and he was good. Right away, and the next year too.
  23. Mike Sixel
    No. They need a catcher or SS. Maybe a RF. They have all kinds of RP options. No.
  24. Mike Sixel
    x2 I will say, Fangraphs, which probably has a bigger IT budget......they have the same issues.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Governor Perry called the racist shooting of 9 black people "an accident". Did that gain him votes, or cost him votes?
