    Wait, Gardy publicly blasted a young player? Color me shocked.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Awesome stuff, and appreciated that he took the time to do this.
  3. Mike Sixel
    If they won't promote him until his glvoe is ready, we lose years of HRs and watching Parmalee man first.....or RF.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Funny, I thought anyone suggesting Sano might have to move knew nothing about baseball.....move him to first now, and get his bat moving through the minors quickly.
  5. Mike Sixel
    You are missing the sarcasm in his post.......
  6. Mike Sixel
    Great stuff.

    One of my favorite pictures from the recent news. R

    spideyo, did they eliminate seats, or some of the big open standing room area?
  9. Mike Sixel
    I think earlier someone posted that Seattle does, but I did not read the actual link.

    Doood*, I'm 49..... *not assuming you are a doood, I guess, I just like typing these kewl words

    No one on this board wants KC to fail. I'm sorry, that's just not true. We might expect him to, but we don't want him to. Perhaps the OP could use a different tone, though, rather than telling us all to learn the game....

    Good point on the tv, I forgot that. So after we give them milliions for a new stadium, they cut the taxpayers' ability to even watch the games. Gah, thanks for reminding me.

    Jason Barlett also appreciates the opportunity and patience the FO and manager show young players, rather than going with terrible veterans.
  14. Mike Sixel
    there is some great irony in this thread......

    Pretty high? It is pretty much infinite on HS cathers, isn't it?
  16. Mike Sixel
    So, not many college relievers in rounds 2+ on the list....hopefully the Twins discovered some kind of market inefficiency.....but I have my doubts.
  17. Mike Sixel
    It raises the question, what is the role of a AAA manager and team? Develop players, or win games? What takes precedence? But I agree, I'd rather those two play every day......they will need Hermann this year in MN. And maybe Benson.
  18. Mike Sixel
    I vastly prefer day games to distract me from boring meetings, frankly. Oh well.
  19. Mike Sixel
    I agree, the team needs to be patient. I'm not sure that is true of fans, but I'm not sure it isn't true. Not sure what my role is in this process.....should I just accept bad play and keep paying for it? Should I boo bad play? should I just ignore bad play? Should I shout random encouragment that the players can't hear? In the long run, if it matters to a player if the fans are patient, I doubt that player has the confidence to be great.

    they do expect us to believe They can't give their money away Budget is not an issue, they can spend as much as they want Spending money on good players has no correlation to winning They will be competitive right up to the end of the season Trees somehow keep the best hitters on the planet from doing their job Taking away the large standing room area, which they touted as one of the best parts of the stadium when it rolled out, to replace it with seats that will be sold to full games, is a good idea Beer is worth $7-9 per beer ......
  21. Mike Sixel
    It's not baffling. This FO and ownership team has shown a complete lack of understanding and empathy to its fans since they got the stadium, imo. It is hard to think of one thing they've done since then that has been done with fans in mind first......
  22. Mike Sixel
    Nor do I think drafting a number 2 pitchers 4th overall is a reach if no great hitter is sitting there as the clear BPA. But that is what the sentence implied, if you are not an ace, you are a reach at pick 4. I think I read that correctly.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Not really, I don't think anyone on any website I've read has claimed Frazier and Meadow are MVP type prospects, yet people are saying to pass on the next level of pitchers because they are not aces. If Frazier and Meadows are not in that elite prospect level, why are we holding the pitchers to that level? I understand peoples' arguements, I don't think others are being consistent in their requirements.
  24. Mike Sixel
    I must have read this wrong..... "Everyone wants an ace to be there at #4 but if there isn't one there why reach?"
  25. Mike Sixel
    I don't see a single person saying his career is over. Not one, in the entire thread.
