    They are so far apart I doubt they can see each other outside the dugout at this point.....Jeffers is a top 5 catcher, and isn't playing more than half the games.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Julien spent, what, a couple weeks between assignments in AAA, and was called up when Polanco got hurt a second time, not because he forced his way onto the roster.
  3. Mike Sixel
    Oh, agreed....as much as I love his stuff though....
  4. Mike Sixel
    Fear of injury....that's why Gallo is on the roster still. By that logic, Julien should still be in the minors, just in case he gets hurt? At some point, you have to play your best players, like when you are about to make the playoffs and you have Gallo starting every day, and Solano, and MAT (who has been worse than Gallo since May). And Castro. None of those guys are going to help this team win playoff games. I'm not talking about the beginning of the year here.....it is August.

    I'm not sure it's over.... But it's not looking good for him.
  6. Mike Sixel
    What a horrible thing to believe.
  7. Mike Sixel
    So why didn't they play then? :) I mean, I'd promote them to give them more time in games....
  8. Mike Sixel
    Because they have Kiriloff. And maybe Severino, who has played there some in AAA. There is zero reason to spend money there. Also, who would you target?
  9. Mike Sixel
    I wasn't even talking about Lee .... Martin, though? Yes. Julien is only up because polanco got hurt. He and Wallner were both sent down after playing well, because they wanted veterans instead of better players. And, many here agree and just would rather play bad veterans than take a chance on younger players.

    If y'all were the GM in Arizona, Corbin Carroll would still be in the minors....
  11. Mike Sixel
    Center field. Easy.
  12. Mike Sixel
    I'd have martin up and starting in CF right now.....and see if it works or not for the playoffs. They aren't built to win the playoffs, most likely, so take some chances.
  13. Mike Sixel
    How about 110? That seems realistic to me. 14 catchers did that last year, IIRC. That's likely all the really good catchers.....
  14. Mike Sixel
    Fair, in context of yesterday, but I'm not sure that's leverage specific in terms of what inning, which I thought was your argument.. You stated an opinion, I asked about it, nothing more or less.
  15. Mike Sixel
    How long will we suffer with 42% strikeouts until AK is back? How do we KNOW Williams or Severino are worse than Gallo? This fear of losing out on Gallo somehow being better than the options is really odd to me. He's one of the worst hitters in all of baseball since May......Fear of moving on is not what I'd like from this FO.
  16. Mike Sixel
    You really think that would matter yesterday? If Jax pitched the 6th instead of the 7th? Really?
  17. Mike Sixel
    Blaming Rocco for this bullpen is bonkers. There are what, two guys they can count on? Three? I have no idea how people blame Rocco for this. Did people really want Balazovich or Winder in there instead of Jax? Those same people that rip him for using those guys?
  18. Mike Sixel
    Pagan did pitch yesterday.....
  19. Mike Sixel
    The investigation is being led by a special division of their justice department..... And there is another girl, potentially.
  20. Mike Sixel
    This
  21. Mike Sixel
    Jenkins and Winokur should also be promoted......
  22. Mike Sixel
    Jeffers should catch 75% of the games......and all of them in the playoffs. He should not be at first.
  23. Mike Sixel
    except for that part where Miami wanted Arraez.....
  24. Mike Sixel
    Because Gallo is awful? These guys play first all the time for fun. How much do you really think a good athlete needs to work at 1B to play it fine? You can't be an automatic out, just because you can play first.
  25. Mike Sixel
    If you want Lee on the team, IMO, you put him at a position he'll be playing......if all you do is hedge your bets, he's never going to be ready for another position. How much further along would Martin be defensively had they moved him to the OF or 2B sooner?
