    This aged well.....
  2. Mike Sixel
    They have three SS prospects. They want to see who can play. It's a strategy I endorse, and what the Twins should have been doing with Gallo and Wallner.... Not to mention Lee, Severino, or Prato at third when Lewis went down.
  3. Mike Sixel
    It's also a risk to keep guys.... Like Larnach, Miranda,or Martin..... Who had a lot more value as trade chips than they do now.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Why would they not want to be traded?
  5. Mike Sixel
    Promote guys.... Why is Larnach up and not Prato at third? Are they trying to win this year, or worry about mediocre guys on the back of the 40 man? Lee and Severino should be promoted. I'd prefer either even in Minnesota at third, but at least ST Paul.... I see other teams promoting guys, even from AA.... Meantime, here? Wallner is clearly better than Gallo.....
  6. Mike Sixel
    Showing Wallner should have stayed up... How many more wins with Wallner instead of Gallo the last month?
  7. Mike Sixel
    100% sure I said that the OF would be bad if he was there....not sure your point.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Sure, 2024 matters....but if the OF is Larnach and Celestino and Wallner, it might be worse than this year's OF..... Larnach does not look like part of the future, but he might be. That's the kind of guy you take a chance on acquiring, not building around if you are a serious contender. I understand why Larnach WAS in St. Paul (options and injuries and all), but we are past the time to worry about that. Gallo is just plan not good. If he's on the roster, and Larnach isn't, well, that says plenty, IMO.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Thin? I don't think that's right at all.
  10. Mike Sixel
    I don't think Lewis will ever be fully healthy. I've advocated for polanco to play third on his return, and that looks possible. Between those two, third is covered. They need an OFor two... And RP. I'd be happy if prato had come up for Buxton....or Severino....or Lee, who is still playing SS exclusively even though CC is going nowhere.... So, hard pass on this idea that I previously thought might be a good Idea.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Let's hope so.
  12. Mike Sixel
    He was up when polanco got hurt, then sent down when polanco got healthy. Literally blocked due to health. I don't know how that's even debatable.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Don't hold your breath on promotions.... They've barely promoted anyone to AAA, meaning AA is full.....I don't understand the thinking at all, of keeping AAAA players in St Paul you refuse to promote. Severino and Lee should be in St Paul. Prato with the Twins while Buxton was out, at third. I really am unsure what they're doing. While we watch Atlanta and Milwaukee call up guys from AA.... Over the last couple years
  14. Mike Sixel
    Agreed. Not even close to the same thing. Larnach can't beat out Gallo. He's not a rookie at a super scarce position.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Julien was literally stuck in AAA this year..... So, it just happened.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Almost every starter is a RHP. He's so much better on offense than MAT... And that makes MAT a great defensive sub
  17. Mike Sixel
    I was so wrong about him. Good for him. Also, wow, QBs make a lot of money
  18. Mike Sixel
    As I posted above, martin is hurt again. His foot this time.
  19. Mike Sixel
    DFA Gallo, trade Larnach for a RP. Put Wallner in left. I hear Kepler lollygagged a flyball today.... But he's not going anywhere.
  20. Mike Sixel
    On the plus side, the offense was good and they signed Jenkins. Then there is the bullpen, and Austin Martin hurt again.
  21. Mike Sixel
    Definitely need Thielbar.... And, yikes.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Ouch. Pinch hitting with a RH..... Gallo is done.
  23. Mike Sixel
    I don't think Larnach is long for the twins, even when they move on from Gallo
  24. Mike Sixel
    I wish he'd come up instead of Larnach... And that he was playing third. It's hard to see how he fits on a healthy twins roster, with Julien, Lee, Lewis, Castro. Not to mention Martin and Schoebel. And if they keep polanco.
  25. Mike Sixel
    I'll be surprised if Gallo is on the roster after the deadline. They are giving him a shot in center, and he can't hit ....
