    I'll bite....because by this far into the regime, our expectations should be higher. Meeting mediocre expectations just means the coaches likely aren't the issue, but those supplying them players are....
  2. Mike Sixel
    Ha, I stole it from teh game thread, but lots of (smarter than me) people don't go to those.....
  3. Mike Sixel
    As a number of us have said:
  4. Mike Sixel
    The obvious question is.....is he even healthy enough to bat at this point? But sure, Rocco said what many of us have been saying since the year started, if Buxton could, he would.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Or Headrik. OTOH, they'll need a long reliever ready for Maeda's start....
  6. Mike Sixel
    You're arguing what? You are replying to a comment that has nothing to do with your reply......You're almost making his point for him....
  7. Mike Sixel
    Varland demoted! Wow, didn't see that coming. Now if only they would do that with a certain hitter that's been bad for 3+ years.... edit: I guess this is about Maeda.....so, sure? Not that anyone but the FO thinks Maeda can go 5+ innings w/o his arm falling off. And, when they call up Maeda, they'll likely demote Balazovich, because he's young and Pagan should stay.......
  8. Mike Sixel
    Balanced schedule....
  9. Mike Sixel
    It's why I never liked the rooker pick....I do agree, you care less at 49 .... But give me a pitcher or guy who can both hit and field.
  10. Mike Sixel
    I think the problem is the front office. I have no idea if new coaches would help. Also, the veterans just aren't playing well. Sticking with Kepler and Gallo and pagan is on the front office...... And I'm done with them for sure.
  11. Mike Sixel
    I'd prefer not to take a guy that might have to play first or DH..... repeating myself, I know The guy from Nebraska is interesting....
  12. Mike Sixel
    No. But I'd work really hard to convince him to move to the OF and put Miranda back at third. This isn't a very good team, let's find out if it can be next year or not. Personally, I'd promote Lee and Severino to AAA, put them at third and second, and see if they should be in Minnesota sooner rather than later. Julien? He's a legit hitter.... But where to play him? I'm in the camp of ILing Buxton for two weeks, then rehab for a week. Put Julien at DH and Farmer or Lewis or Lee or Severino at second.
  13. Mike Sixel
    100% this. I went to fire the FO two weeks ago, and their unwillingness to move on from Kepler, STILL, only cements that in my mind. Their inability to build a complete team despite a real budget and this pitching staff is mind boggling. Now, party of that is Buxton (and CC and Polanco) not hitting or being healthy, but that's not all of the issue. They just refuse to bite the bullet here. They NEED offense, desperately. As for Buxton? No idea what to do here, frankly.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Nope. And I'll post what I did two weeks ago, the FO needs to go. They are unable to build a complete team, despite having a real budget.

    This is a game recap thread after a win?

    This entire board but a few of us wanted Jeffers gone before the year ...
  19. Mike Sixel
    It's a game thread. After a win. When every pitching move he made in a bullpen game worked. Come on.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Interesting. I think I'm at least two to three weeks from tomatoes, and those are the small cherries..... Likely they'll be very full in August when we go to Norway.... Glad you are enjoying it. It's definitely a good hobby.
  21. Mike Sixel
    It's how things are.....wanting them to be different doesn't make them different.
  22. Mike Sixel
    100% truth.
  23. Mike Sixel
    At some point, you have to trust the young guys. And as mediocre as Larnach has been, he's been better and cheaper than Rosario....
  24. Mike Sixel
    Just like he did last year?
  25. Mike Sixel
    I hope they don't get cute with the first pick to save money....
