    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.....

    Not bad at all. They could use some gold trim.....

    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/

    The Yankees are an elite team. I would expect them to win these games. The Twins did score five runs, so that's progress. But the easiest explanation for the outcomes is that one team is on a historic win pace, and the other is an above average team.

    What does this mean? What does that whole paragraph imply, if not people here don't think businesses should make money? It does seem a little silly to be outraged that a business is concerned about profit.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Great post! The Yankees probably didn't play their future OF at SS for three years either.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Point to anyone in this thread saying the Twins shouldn't worry about making money, please.

    I'm hoping Wallner is the LF/DH/RF sub middle of the order bat he was most of last year in about 2-3 weeks.....Interestingly, your list is all RH except Castro! How Kepler isn't playing against LH starters, and therefore a middle of the order bat (not a you problem a Twins problem) is beyond belief to me.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Wallner was literally the 2nd best LFer in the game in the second half last year......I'm hoping he comes back almost that good this year.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Ah, I misunderstood your post.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Veteran presence? They have zero young players on the OL.
  13. Mike Sixel
    What level prospects will you give up to get an elite SP and Alonso? You're losing 3-4 top 15 guys on the odds those two make this a great team, for half a year?
  14. Mike Sixel
    How would you have gotten rid of Vazquez?
  15. Mike Sixel
    No interest in trading for average players. Zero. I don't know why anyone thinks trading for a good player with little control left is a good idea. This team isn't a half session of a decent player away.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Then you call up Martin or Rodriguez. Margot is putting up negative value, you don't win that way.... Fear is no way to try to win.
  17. Mike Sixel
    No way I pay the price for half a year. No way.
  18. Mike Sixel
    I wish we could get sounds of the games without announcers.
  19. Mike Sixel
    So? People talk about this stuff all the time. People talked about who the MVP would be before the season started. Besides, why do people Even listen to announcers? The game on TV, music for sound. So much better.
  20. Mike Sixel
    All of that is true, though.
  21. Mike Sixel
    He's played 28 games at catcher. That's hardly a burden.
  22. Mike Sixel
    I think you need another top 5-7 guy in there.....they aren't dealing him for a pitching prospect and a 45 FV guy.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Unless Vazquez catches Wednesday also......but I bet Lewis is the DH Wednesday and Jeffers catches one whole game this series.....
  24. Mike Sixel
    how about half the time? After tonight, Vazquez will have caught 4 more games than Jeffers, or 14% more often.....
  25. Mike Sixel
    we can be pretty sure Jeffers won't catch Thursday, regardless. So, I just don't get this at all. Somehow, after tonight, Vazquez will have started 4 more games at catcher than Jeffers. I just don't get it. That's 14% more than Jeffers.......
