    Not sure if serious........
  2. Mike Sixel
    That wasn't his point.....his point, and it is accurate, is that no player on this roster is perfect, and all have something they could improve. Saying Sano isn't perfect is no reason not to promote him. There might be other reasons......
  3. Mike Sixel
    Movie? btw, Hicks is now outhitting Suzuki. They actually thought signing him to a 2 year deal was a good idea.....
  4. Mike Sixel
    Suzuki is now the 30th "best" hitting catcher this year (100 plus ABs).......when will Herrmann or Fryer or anyone else get a shot? How bad does it have to get?
  5. Mike Sixel
    If the FBI is investigating this......well, go read the fangraphs article on this. This is a criminal activity, and it reads like the case isn't going to be hard to make.
  6. Mike Sixel
    So let them steal other team's information, with no on field consequences? Not a fan of that at all. You cheat in a big way, you don't get to the playoffs. Other options: guys you just drafted go into a pool and are dispersed to other teams you lose picks in future years you can't sign any FAs for some time
  7. Mike Sixel
    Why not? That would be true punishment, everything else is gravy (other than jail time).
  8. Mike Sixel
    Very fair. Like I said, I've kind of made up my mind here......that he won't be near top 10 1B over a full year again. I could be wrong, wouldn't be the first time.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Contract was not the problem, for me. The problem was not moving him off catcher to protect the investment. All my opinion, of course.....
  10. Mike Sixel
    How much more time would convince you? And, the money is spent if he plays or not......but I know you know that. And, I am not saying every day.....how about 2 times a week?
  11. Mike Sixel
    They should, that is intellectual property for sure.......
  12. Mike Sixel
    I won't stop suggesting it......imo, he should be doing it in the minors some right now. I bet they just stick with Mauer, and trade Plouffe, and are a worse team than they could be.
  13. Mike Sixel
    If true, they should be banned from post season play, fined, and otherwise almost shut down, frankly. They should lose their draft picks for this year, and those guys should go in some kind of special lottery. Throw the book a them.
  14. Mike Sixel
    I don't agree, but there is no way either of us can prove our belief.....but Mauer is a bottom five 1B for some time now. As for Sano at 1B, I agree, I don't get why he isn't playing RF or 1B some now. Either trade Plouffe, or get Sano time at other spots. Or, heck, put Plouffe at 1B then...... Either way, if they won't use Vargas as a PH, they should have Sano up.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Might want to check fangraphs, espn.com, and cbs.com, because they all had stories that it was last week or the week before.......
  16. Mike Sixel
    Yup, super 2 passed last week, according to the interwebs.....
  17. Mike Sixel
    Why can't Mauer sit 2 times a week? Or, are they not interested in putting the best team out there? 2-3 days at DH, 2 at 1B, 1 at 3B......that seems like enough to help the Twins, and to get Sano ready for full time next year.....
  18. Mike Sixel
    I see no reason for Sano not to be up here at this point. He can DH, play 1B, play 3B. In looking at the lineups, there are too many black holes right now. What does another month in the minors prove at this point? Be aggressive, try to win! Also, there is a LHP in AAA, and a whole thread on him in the minor league section that could replace Duensing right now......
  19. Mike Sixel
    I am a Theo fan.....this just makes it more so.
  20. Mike Sixel
    So he just stood there?
  21. Mike Sixel
    They need courage.......
  22. Mike Sixel
    Is that a sports thing?
  23. Mike Sixel
    There are no top flight young MLB catchers being traded for a good 3B, I would not think. Mauer should sit the most of Sano and Plouffe, and it should start soon, imo.
  24. Mike Sixel
    No one in CR is helping this year......so that doesn't really help anytime soon. Yet, this guy clearly has a chance to be better than Duensing right now. They are wasting him as a starter. It is a simple numbers game.
  25. Mike Sixel
    I He did an interview where he said he changed his mix.
