    I definitely am in the minority here and another site!

    McCusker isn't a poster child for development and drafting at all, one way or the other. They promoted Miranda, Julien, Lee and Keashcell quickly because they were young and good. It didn't always work, and we don't know if it will. I can remain hopeful that at some point they realize LHH should play....... All I literally said was that they seemed to change philosophy three years ago......not that they were good at it. I've called for their heads repeatedly.....

    Moving a guy who can't hit well enough at SS to 3B seems like a bad idea.....not that I have a GOOD answer at this point....
  4. Mike Sixel
    that last part is key. Ober is so bad right now, it almost doesn't matter who they bring up to replace him (yes, the ERA might or might not be higher, but when it is this high, it doesn't matter if it is 5 or 6).
  5. Mike Sixel
    I think they either changed philosophy, or it is a coincidence, three years ago. Mostly no more big lumbering guys early.....IF Keaschell and EROD were healthy, I think we'd all feel different about the hitting development right now (though I can't explain Julien and Miranda falling off a cliff).
  6. Mike Sixel
    No. The TWins should be sellers.

    Man, I don't get what Miami is doing, other than unloading 2 guys that didn't want to be there. But I'd want A LOT more for Ramsey than that.
  8. Mike Sixel
    I'd probably IL him if his body isn't 100% at this point. This season is OVER, IMO, and I want him healthy next year. As for the replacement? Call up a young guy and get him some experience. But then, I'm on the "see what we really have down in AAA/AA" train at this point.....

    Ugh. On the Lewis part. Bride shouldn't be on a roster..
  10. Mike Sixel
    Lottery tickets pay off sometimes. Expiring contracts doing give then anything. Everyone should be available at this point that has less than three years of control.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Alcala being this bad. Buxton being healthy, really healthy. Clemens. Ober struggling. He's got to be hurting. Rocco being extended already.
  12. Mike Sixel
    More likely they have no one to replace him?

    The Mets are another good contender (pun!) to trade with.....Fangraphs list up today, btw.
  15. Mike Sixel
    If you never draft a catcher........ It isn't a REACH to take a good hitting catcher. Which catcher has this team developed taken past round 2? Maybe it is how they ignore actual catchers that has put them in this position to pay Vazquez (who can't hit) 10 million.....and not have anyone to replace him at this point, three years later.
  16. Mike Sixel
    I mean, I'd roll the dice on him and put him at first right now. France has been not good since the first moth, and he's not part of the future. But then, I'm all about finding out what they have in these young guys this year, to plan better for next year.
  17. Mike Sixel
    He's on pace for 24 home runs a year, or more really, during this streak. And people say he's not hitting the ball hard enough?
  18. Mike Sixel
    Besides for Mahle,, and others? They totally trade prospects all the time. If you think GG is bad, I don't know what to say at this point.....
  19. Mike Sixel
    I'm not sure where I said I'd deal either of those for him? I said they needed someone like him in the system. I'm also not sure he's 5 years out, but we have no real idea on that, imo. I'd also want one of the two you mention for Duran or Jax....but I can't see getting a AAA player who can play this year for him? Maybe? They also need Larnach or Wallner, both of which are worth way more than one AAA guy. I'd think this is an org that a multi player deal can be done with. I also think the Twins will stand pat and do nearly nothing.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Agreed.
  21. Mike Sixel
    Not really. They'll need a guy like him in three years. This is an organization they should be trading with..
  22. Mike Sixel
    Agreed.
  23. Mike Sixel
    This is why you trade expiring players for lottery picks. You might get lucky..
  24. Mike Sixel
    It's awful.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Nice to see scum actually held accountable for a change.
