    Twins are near the bottom of the majors in CF production....and it isn't close. Martin should be the starting CF right now. If it doesn't work, put MAT back in.....DFA Gallo or Sands to make room.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Agreed
  3. Mike Sixel
    Good article!
  4. Mike Sixel
    Not aggressive at all. Many teams have already done this. If the Twins don't, I'll be disappointed.
  5. Mike Sixel
    The irony of people posting these thoughts from the powerful devices our phones have become is not lost on me...
  6. Mike Sixel
    I wasn't suggesting it at all..... Just posting for posting on that part. The actual point was the first part.

    So, the colts say he's not worth paying like an elite player, but they want a return for an elite player? What team is doing this? Didn't he miss half the year with an ankle injury? Cine and Booth for Taylor, who says no?
  8. Mike Sixel
    How many billions were spent to get that super insight?
  9. Mike Sixel
    When chief and I agree on something not being new fangled, you can bet it isn't.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Hopefully they didn't buy lucid stock like someone I won't name did. Sigh.

    I like Polanco. I don't think I keep him.... 1. He's not very good defensively. You want a good defensive bench guy to replace Julien late in games. Who is your backup SS if he's on the roster and Farmer isn't? 2. He's not been healthy for two years. Not sure why he would be next year. 3. He blocks young players. THIS FO has shown they LOVE veterans. I mean, Julien was great in replacing Polanco the first time, but was sent down and was only up again because Polanco got hurt a second time. I don't trust this FO to give Lee or Severino shots next year if Polanco is on the roster. 4. He's better than many teams' 2b, and has trade value. 5. That's a good chuck of change for a backup. 6. He's not ever going to be demoted to AAA for depth reasons. If they do keep him, I hope they are smart enough to move on if he doesn't play well (Gallo indicates that's unlikely) or if Lee and/or Severino are mashing next year.

    I would never have guessed it was that bad had I not looked....that's why context is so important when looking at value. Everyone else is just better.....
  13. Mike Sixel
    As chief pointed out above, there weren't openers then either....it isn't "new analytics" at all.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Free Austin Martin! On a more serious note, you gotta like what Pierson Ohl is doing. I also retract all the nice things I said about Dobnak two weeks ago (in my defense, I was traveling in Europe and was just in a good mood).
  15. Mike Sixel
    I like this team's odds of being a division winner the next few years, if they trust their farm system and keep supplementing the SP with outside arms.....now if we could figure out the RP....
  16. Mike Sixel
    I have no idea if Severino is better or worse at the MLB level....but it would be hard to be worse at this point. I wish Gallo had worked out, it was an interesting risk (though more money than needed, imo).
  17. Mike Sixel
    come on. You just compared a career minor league player to two HoF players.....
  18. Mike Sixel
    Passed you by? This would be the strategy for decades.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Did the Vikings learn anything in week 2? Is the preseason a waste of time now?
  20. Mike Sixel
    No other manager makes a different decision there. It is how the game works. I don't even know how this is debatable (other than the FO only gave him the choice of Gallo, but that's not his fault).
  21. Mike Sixel
    Why not? He literally can't be worse than Gallo has been. he has to be protected this year.....why not?
  22. Mike Sixel
    It was the plan all along with a bullpen / starter game from Pitts.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Good week, shocking result from Keuchel. Good for him! The sooner Gallo is gone, the better. Polanco shouldn't be far behind, alas, as I've always liked him. The team is better the more they play young guys.......there is a AAA OF with great speed and on base ability, former top prospect who is now healthy.....if only there was a position where they were underperfroming, like CF where they are near last in all the majors in war.....or first base....
  24. Mike Sixel
    I didn't watch one second. I barely have read anything, but Udoh should be gone, and this D is going to give up a **** ton of points.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Arraez had almost no experience. There's no excuse for Gallo to be on this roster. Keuchel was truly surprising today. Good for him.
