    I have no idea how the Cards gave up so little in this trade? I must be missing something.....
  2. Mike Sixel
    no more certain than any other prospect, but if you have a budget, you have to trust your prospects.
  3. Mike Sixel
    They are healthy. You never know if they'll be so next year (just look at waiting for next year while the M&M boys were healthy).
  4. Mike Sixel
    Ya, you can if you have a budget and that last part is total bunk and needs to die.
  5. Mike Sixel
    No way they deal Alacala or Jax. Or Wallner. How do you fill those spots at all, let alone easier? I literally have no idea how this is a good idea. Wallner is their best hitting OF. Jax their best RP. Like, I really don't get this at all.

    In thinking about this more, I just don't think they want to pay the price for a non-rental. Next year in AAA they have Festa, Morris, Matthews, maybe Raya and Ohl.....do they even want a non-rental starter? They have 4 starters and Paddocak (and Varland).
  7. Mike Sixel
    As I said elsewhere: Kepler and Julien for Cortes and a prospect. You might have to put Varland or Paddock in there, and get a better prospect as the Yankees will need a 5th starter occasionally the rest of the way.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Interesting....Kepler and Julien for Cortez and a decent prospect? Not sure I do that, but it seems fairish.

    I really think they weren't planning on that budget last year, and the CC thing happened.....and they decided to have that budget for one year. Note they didn't really ADD at the deadline last year, so I think money WAS an issue last year.
  10. Mike Sixel
    No, you don't have to choose....you can do all three of those things at the same time. Also, standing pat also has risk....inaction has as much risk as action. This idea that doing nothing has no risk really has to die in all parts of life.

    I made a typo above....but the point remains. Established businesses that lose money every year don't go up in value every year. They just don't.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Pointing out outliers doesn't really make your point. Ryan is truly unique, as studies show. Ober was great, and I'm very confident in him.
  13. Mike Sixel
    I mean, what did they do last trade deadline when they had one of the best pitching staffs in baseball that makes anyone think they will add a significant piece this year? No established business that loses 100 million a year goes up in value every year. It just doesn't . edit: I meant to type 10 million, but whatever.....

    Awful trade. Yikes.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Time to promote Jenkins already. he's not learning anything in low A ball at this point.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Evergreen post.

    My feedback on these reports is that they are the best part of the site. You can tell all the writers are really into it. Just love this part.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Wow, QBs are expensive!
  19. Mike Sixel
    That's what they said about Jax.... If I was him, I'd want money before my arm fell off.... But I see your point, and could be wrong.
  20. Mike Sixel
    He's not going to get poop in arbitration since he's never healthy. Cost isn't an issue at all, just health.
  21. Mike Sixel
    It's going to be almost impossible to sign someone to any kind of big dollar or even mid dollar deal, either as a FA or their own guys given that, and their budget. It's why I think they won't deal for a controllable SP this year, they have Festa, Morris, and Matthews on the brink. Plus Paddock. And Varland.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Holy hell, Shaq Griffin may have been injured today. DO NOT let your kids play CB for this team....
  23. Mike Sixel
    that and they have an insufficient number of pitchers and he was successful at one point. What do they have to lose, they already stink.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Got it. I didn't read your reply that way. I'd likely do this exact trade, assuming the top guy is a hitter worse than Keaschell.... But it sure read like you'd deal Keaschell, and I'm not doing that.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Martin in right would be really bad. Your arm is better.
