    Surprisingly bad so far. Not sure what's up there.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Well, then I was misinformed! But the point remains, they are taking it easy on him .... and that directive is likely from the FO. That said, I'd not handle it that way.
  3. Mike Sixel
    OTOH, Taylor has been a league average hitter, and played great D and run the bases well. That move has turned out quite nicely for this team.

    I really don't get why Kepler is on this roster still. Sigh (I'm hoping for a reverse jinx, which I probably just jinxed).
  5. Mike Sixel
    He hasn't played a day game after a night game all year, so, no, this isn't about Rocco.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Williams with another HR today.....
  7. Mike Sixel
    Ya, I'd take him if I was Oak or KC for sure. Likely Detroit also. So, I'd be shocked if he's left unprotected if he hits at all this year.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Hard to see anyone keeping ERod on their MLB roster all year next year, but stranger things have happened I guess.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Beyond "getting", it is. It'

    Enlow is in AAA, and two injuries from being a starter in MN, he's not being left unprotected. The money means nothing on him or Severino, they left both unprotected this year, but both have been healthy and taken steps forward. I'll give you Keirsey. Carnargo is young and might be a catcher. You don't let that walk. The main point? They have a lot of guys that will be taking up 40 man spots, and that doesn't include signing any FA next off season, which they might do.
  11. Mike Sixel
    He has a full no trade clause. Who is trading for him if he's "not good" as you say?
  12. Mike Sixel
    Big fan, but I'd trade him at the deadline. It might not work out great this year, but I have no doubt they can fill the position next year. I'd just put Julien there and hope there aren't a lot of opportunities for him ..... Unless you want to put Lewis or Farmer (late innings for sure with the lead) there and put Farmer or Miranda at 3B (Lee isn't ready). There is no guarantee that any of the options (Lewis, Lee, Martin, Julien, Severino......et. al.) will work, but, IMO, it is better to move on too soon, than too late. If they can get a top prospect for him, plus a flyer? I do that all day long and roll the dice that one of those guys is a good 2B next year.
  13. Mike Sixel
    agreed
  14. Mike Sixel
    They almost need to make a trade from depth again. That's what people forget about last trade deadline..... Keirsey, Severino, Martin, Carnargo, Enlow are 100% getting traded or protected, IMO.
  15. Mike Sixel
    I mean, he should be playing 1B every day. Kiriloff can move to LF or RF (when Miranda is ready). They didn't play him at first this year because he was the starting 3B...... I'm hopeful, still, but was never as high on him as the rest of the site seemed to be. Leewis, IMO, should be the starting CF next year. I'm not holding my breath on that. I agree Lee and Severino are a year away.....
  16. Mike Sixel
    That's a reasoned take, that understands why the Twins almost had to do the deal.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Back to the surgery, it makes sense to wait. He can play, hopefully, thru August, have the surgery, and be ready for April. It makes sense to use the season to work on hitting (and fielding at 2B?) and use the off season for recovery. IMO.
  18. Mike Sixel
    I'll give you this, your dislike of war is at least made with an actual understanding of them.
  19. Mike Sixel
    That's what I was trying to do, but clearly failed. Oh well.
  20. Mike Sixel
    The goal of everyone is to avoid cutting into the human body if possible....
  21. Mike Sixel
    You don't think the Dodgers sign him to that contract at the time, or don't want him now? Those are two very different things....
  22. Mike Sixel
    dumpster diving? They have the highest payroll and biggest deals in team history.
  23. Mike Sixel
    LF or 2B or CF were always the option for him. No idea why he kept playing SS. As for surgery, as with any human, the goal is to avoid it if possible. We'll see. I feel bad for the young man. He's not had any good luck (health wise) in 2 years.
  24. Mike Sixel
    AK in right, Kepler sitting tonight, so that's a start I guess....
  25. Mike Sixel
    Some random poster is evidence of what?
