    Here's a game we can play: predict the ratio of baserunners to outs for Stauffer while he is on the Twins.....
  2. Mike Sixel
    Maybe when Ryan said Hunter wouldn't embarrass himself in CF, he meant compared to Schafer?
  3. Mike Sixel
    So much for my prediction....... most positive thing I can think about our SP today....Nolasco is cool to say, or, ricky makes me think of ricky ricardo.....

    I don't know, if we all chose to laugh when things went wrong for this team, we'd all be happier and healthier.....if laughter is the best medicine.

    Paul "believes in small government", until he says stuff about how doctors interact with female patients, gay marriage, and other social issues that are actually what libertarians should be about.....
  7. Mike Sixel
    Prediction: Nolasco gives up 1 more run, through 6.....and we hear how he really settle down, ignoring inning 3.....
  8. Mike Sixel
    Decided to move out West. Worked out a lot (not enough to be STRONG hiking up the mountains last week) Played some D&D Watched less sports than ever Learning guitar

    Apparently the NFL has turned over 18.5% of officials the last two years, in an effort to improve officiating (wish the NCAA had done that.....). Anyone have any idea on MLB umpire turnover?

    Current chance of scoring 2 runs.....100%.* *math...science....stats....hard stuff, man.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Ya, I still sort of do that.....
  12. Mike Sixel
    More chemistry lessons please. .....
  13. Mike Sixel
    never. not once.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Well, Porcello got "only" 4 / 85 or something like that......if he had waited, I think 5/100 was in his future, but now he has certainty.
  15. Mike Sixel
    I'd do Santana, May or Meyer, Gonsavles, random guy around 10-15th best prospect, for Tulo....but that would NOT BE ENOUGH.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Why give up assets, why not just blow through the cap? Other than saving the owner money......there is no good reason to give up an asset to expand their cap.
  17. Mike Sixel
    I just want him to succeed, in some way, that the MLB level....even though I supposedly don't root for individuals anymore.....
  18. Mike Sixel
    I like the idea, but I think it is more likely the Twins deal Plouffe and Escobar and somehow Mauer, for prospects, than the other way around. Oh, and Perkins. I'd call SF right now, and offer Nolasco, Santana, Perkins and Meyer and see what they offer back. I'd call SD right now, and see what I can get for Plouffe or Escobar.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Never should have been kept at 3B that long.......imo. From what I read all year, he was a corner OF or 1B waiting to happen. I'm not sure the AZ leadership has much of a good plan in general, frankly. I'm pretty sure I said the Twins should sign him, but I was thinking RF.....
  20. Mike Sixel
    I hate typing this.......but I don't like their odds this year, and I think Sano can play 3B for 2 years or so.....so I think Plouffe should be available. I just see them as redundant for 2 years....so go for it, deal Plouffe.
  21. Mike Sixel
    I agree with the philosophy, but it seems sometimes they keep trying to make a guy a starter, when it is clear he isn't one........and won't ever be one. But then, maybe they won't ever be a RP at the MLB level either.
  22. Mike Sixel
    I think he's about 5% likely to win the title.......which is actually pretty good odds. But, I don't see it happening. I'm guessing he hits around .305.
  23. Mike Sixel
    I think the mods here do a great job........really. This site is great, or I wouldn't keep coming back. I think both "sides" are tired right now.......
  24. Mike Sixel
    I think, maybe, you are assuming some things here....I'm very dude like about the Twins. If the lose, whatever.....I'm HERE to have conversations about the Twins, mostly because I sit on lots of really boring conference calls that don't always need my immediate attention (and I tend to work a bit longer some days, so I get my work done). I think some people think that "negative" people are actually angry about this stuff.....I'm not. I can't speak for others, but I'm not. But, I am here to have conversations that are interesting. Saying "everything is awesome" doesn't really interest me. I understand not everyone agrees with that stance.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Huh, for some reason, I expected more top prospects at this level (off the top of my head). Only having 4 or 5 seems low for this level, given that many get weeded out as they move off. OTOH, maybe that's because AA is loaded! Will be really interested in some of the pitchers here.....along with Vielma and Garver.
