    Also, we don't need to worry about Martin's LT development at this point, imo. He is what he is (though he can improve over time). My point is, it is ok if he only plays 2-3 times a week, and pinch runs......
  2. Mike Sixel
    You aren't getting a good pitching prospect, or anything, for Margot. Their plan is to have him play in Minnesota instead of any of their homegrown players.
  3. Mike Sixel
    No way I deal either OF this year. Lee? He's basically CC and Lewis insurance. What is that worth? Is that worth a controllable pitcher (would cost more than him)? I think it is. I'm happy to give up pitching prospects if I get more than two years of control of a very good SP....
  4. Mike Sixel
    Agreed.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Just say no to HS pitchers.

    I love varland in the bullpen.... I'm not convinced he's a starter or that anyone would trade for him thinking he was one? I'd have preferred doing this versus the Yankees, they were losing those games anyway.... Not that I think this is a guaranteed loss at all, he's got ability. .... But if you're just trying to get some rest for everyone, and are going to pitch a lesser guy, do it in a game you are likely to lose, imo.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Why not Boushley?
  8. Mike Sixel
    Martin can play second and the OF ... And he's fast. He should be in Minnesota over Farmer, and it isn't close. Leadership? They have zero rookies or even second year players on the roster, let that sink in, other than Lewis. How many leaders do they need?
  9. Mike Sixel
    Yup.... Was hoping for an update on this... Did they do X-rays?
  10. Mike Sixel
    Rodriguez got hurt. Any update?
  11. Mike Sixel
    He's 24, promote him....
  12. Mike Sixel
    Nope.
  13. Mike Sixel
    My point is that we better hope he's not playing SS any time soon, because that means CC isn't...
  14. Mike Sixel
    I was told he was so good at catcher that zero offense didn't matter, and that he magically made the pitchers better (how's that worked these two games?)
  15. Mike Sixel
    This is why I hate this veteran stuff and platoon stuff. Sigh.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Truly Mind. Boggling. Truly.
  17. Mike Sixel
    He's 23rd in fWAR among CF, with not playing all year. He'd be around 18th had he played all year, so it's hyperbole to say he wouldn't start for most teams. That said, your points are valid, and he could degress from here even more. It's sad, really. So much promise and skill. OTOH, he might just start hitting again, and he'd be around the 10th best CF then.......

    according to Fangraphs, the organizational processes are much improved.....I linked to it in another thread (the other site's thread).
  19. Mike Sixel
    I feel good about 2B with Keashcel's progress....and Julien, I'm fairly confident in him. Even Lewis, Miranda can play 3B, but I want him at first. The more I type, the more I realize he's CC's only real backup......and could play 3B or 2B.
  20. Mike Sixel
    They have a terrible system, and I bet they want numbers....but your plan works likely. If I was confident Lewis would ever be healthy, I'd deal Lee for this type of pitcher for sure, but I'm hesitant.
  21. Mike Sixel
    Wow, they have a barren system: https://blogs.fangraphs.com/miami-marlins-top-29-prospects-2024/ I think bulk packages would work! Too bad their new OF is hurt, I'd like him in that package over other options...
  22. Mike Sixel
    We can't eat the peas fast enough, and I anticipate my grape vine will make more grapes that we and our neighbors can eat. I'm a bit worried my tomatoes have flowers already, might pinch them off, as they aren't that big yet (though they'll be massive in a month or so, so whatever). The onions are starting to get big enough to really use, and we have two random potato plants again this year. The beans and basil look good, the zucchini not so much yet. We are trying to restart our rosemary, as the main plant needs to be dug up, but so far the starts aren't working great.....
  23. Mike Sixel
    Not bad at all. They could use some gold trim.....
  24. Mike Sixel
    Bleep That aside, I'd like to see Julien get time at first and Lee time at second...... Because Lee isn't playing SS any time soon in Minnesota. They did this to Martin, even though everyone knew he wasn't a SS. Otoh, Lewis might get hurt again, and Lee will play third...

    The rankings here will shock most of you https://blogs.fangraphs.com/the-dog-ate-my-prospect/
