    This is a fair point!
  2. Mike Sixel
    Why not just put him there yesterday?
  3. Mike Sixel
    I'd love for Lewis to be the starting CF (or Martin)......and for Lee to be at third. But I don't believe Lewis will be there for a second. We'll know in March/April....
  4. Mike Sixel
    As far as I can tell, they now have a 39 man team for the playoffs, not 40.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Julien is at 2nd if they don't trade him. 100% of the time. Where would they play Lee if Lewis is at third and Julien at 2nd? AAA.
  6. Mike Sixel
    If he's healthy...but why not IL Miranda yesterday and put Stevenson on the 40 man?
  7. Mike Sixel
    But now they have 39 guys on the 40 man for the playoffs......that's my point. They could have done this yesterday and kept him in AAA until today. If they waive Stevenson w/o a fully healthy Buxton and MAT, that would be odd, imo.
  8. Mike Sixel
    too late! That's the point of my original post.....
  9. Mike Sixel
    If they need MAT insurance, he really should have been up yesterday......
  10. Mike Sixel
    Buxton hasn't played more than a third of the games in a year almost ever.....Martin or Lewis will play more CF than Buxton next year and every year after that. If Lewis is at third, no idea where Lee is other than St. Paul.
  11. Mike Sixel
    I'd take a chance on him over Gallo all day, every day at this point. But clearly they disagree.
  12. Mike Sixel
    He's also a LH hitting OF....which I thought they had too many of? Like, I really don't get this at all....
  13. Mike Sixel
    So, they are calling up Stevenson....but he can't be on the playoff roster? Why would you do this? Why not yesterday? Unless I'm not understanding, this seems really, really, really, odd.
  14. Mike Sixel
    We'll never know if Lee can play until he's in the majors......It's all about Lewis' and CC's health....if they are healthy, Lee sits in ST. P as insurance.....I doubt, very much, as you point out, he will hit like Julien. Julien has been awesome.....and I believe he'll be somewhere between his peak this year and Steer.....My point is that they have depth, but not much young pitching that anyone trusts. Depth is great! But having more starters that are great is better.....
  15. Mike Sixel
    Ya, I'm not convinced I'm right, nor am I convinced I'm wrong. I'd bet good money he's the starting 2B next year.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Well, unless Lewis also moves to the OF, Lee will sit in AAA no matter how he plays, until there is an injury. We know that, given this year. So, I do see a logjam. I'd rather move Julien for a really good pitcher and have more good/great players in the majors, than sitting in AAA.
  17. Mike Sixel
    I'm not worried about his hitting at all....and he's more than good enough at it to be a full time DH, IMO.....but that seems like a bad plan. I'm fascinated that so far people don't have an issue, given how this board was split on the Arraez deal......
  18. Mike Sixel
    He's worth every penny.
  19. Mike Sixel
    We'll, this isn't happening. But at least we still have Luplow and Gallo.....
  20. Mike Sixel
    Zero people will agree with me.... But I've thought about the team trading him. He should fetch a great pitching prospect plus..... And Lee can take over second. It would be a ridiculously risky move....... That won't happen.
  21. Mike Sixel
    Shouldn't be an issue, their system is loaded, right? Yikes, that team will be awful for years.
  22. Mike Sixel
    100% he'll be the best on this list, unless Stewart is fully healthy, then it might be him. Varland should be pitching one inning at a time right now.
  23. Mike Sixel
    I'm hoping Varland is more of a one inning guy. They better not need bulk relief in the playoffs.
  24. Mike Sixel
    The AFC is amazing. The NFC? Not so much.
  25. Mike Sixel
    sure, that's all I meant......but I doubt they put him on the 40 w/o calling him up asap. Not that anyone needs replacing who is playing al lthe time.....
