    You two agree on Larnach.....
  2. Mike Sixel
    He's been better than Julien at every level. Why don't people believe in Wallner?
  3. Mike Sixel
    No.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Raya for Hader? Yikes. Triple yikes.
  5. Mike Sixel
    We agree on this.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Headrick could relieve the rest of this year without effecting the long term. Almost every minor league pitcher could, I'd think. I agree, they could really use one more bro good RP.... But I don't know who that is that will be dealt....
  7. Mike Sixel
    I like the KC plan. I think it's a legit way for this team to win. But I'm not sure the starters are up for it right now..... So vanimal is probably right, they need to balance the OF.
  8. Mike Sixel
    I'd still consider dealing Gray, but the price has to be very high. I'm open to any OF being dealt, but the easiest choice is to dfa Gallo. And while Solano had been good, I'd prefer him gone when Lewis returns, rather than Wallner. I get Wallner has holes, but all he's done is hit. Let's see if that's real.
  9. Mike Sixel
    I'm sure not giving three pieces that good for one RP .... No way
  10. Mike Sixel
    Rooker had one great month, and since had been not good. I said nothing about Larnach. He's been better than rooker in the majors, when given a chance and healthy. I like Larnach.... people here seem somewhat irrational about his actual play.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Truth. Seriously. Rooker isn't good. If that's what Larnach is, they should trade him.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Now multiply that by 30 teams.....that's a lot of unsigned HS guys. And that's only late round guys.....
  13. Mike Sixel
    Just the Twins? There are thousands of HS kids drafted since this rule was put in place, that's a lot of analysis. But, I'll bet good money more than a few unsigned HS kinds have gone to college and been great, and drafted again (which is one reason they go to college if they aren't paid A LOT not to).
  14. Mike Sixel
    I think people have been clear....we don't know if he's unlocked something. We know Farmer and Castro aren't starters on a playoff team (or, really, a team trying to make the playoffs for a month w/o a starting 3B).
  15. Mike Sixel
    Burrow carted off, but it is "just" a calf injury. Jalen Ramsey may have a serious knee injury. I like to watch the NFL, but I have to intentionally NOT think about what I'm watching people do to their bodies (though it is their choice to do it).
  16. Mike Sixel
    This. They could have tried to get another HS kid in earlier rounds. Like, you know, Winkour (who hit a HR in his first game!).
  17. Mike Sixel
    What shot? It's a discussion of whether it is a good idea or not......and it likely is if the only other team not to is the Rockies.....
  18. Mike Sixel
    i fully acknowledge he might not be good, but we know what Farmer and Castro are, and that's very good backups / utility guys, not every day 3B.
  19. Mike Sixel
    i saw your numbers....it's a drop in the bucket for a team with a payroll this high, and other costs (FO, marketing, etc.). Doesn't matter, I was saying I'd take the chance, you wouldn't. No biggie we don't agree.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Plus he plays third and LF....no idea why a team that wants to make the playoffs decided not to at least try him at 3B when Lewis went down......and play Castro and Farmer (neither of whom is hitting a lick). Sure, they might have a 40 man crunch, but are you trying to win, or trying to preserve the future (like it matters if they lose a fringe 40 man guy)?
  21. Mike Sixel
    Ya, I'm not worried about next winter......not even a little.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Several HS players taken later did sign for less money than this (IIRC) this year. I do agree that in negotiating with Jenkins, this may have been the line......but that doesn't explain every other year since this rule was put in place. One of 2 teams.
  23. Mike Sixel
    I mean, I'd trade any hitter in AAA right now.....they mostly seem hurt (Miranda / Austin) or AAAA quality (and, as you point out, not young). They don't appear to be willing to give Prato a shot this year, even with LF and 3B basically a black hole right now, so I'm not sure why you don't try to get something for these guys. So, yes, we agree on that for sure. Plus, that opens space in AAA for Lee, Severino, and Kiersey (who isnt getting any younger).
  24. Mike Sixel
    Outside a handful of people, does anyone think this is the plan? No chance. Zero.
  25. Mike Sixel
    If they keep Steer and CES......they'd have to clear that space in the off season, not with the 60 day.....
