    How many bad starts, or short starts, would you give the two veterans? Not the team, you?
  2. Mike Sixel
    And it's not like he was dominant before.... Maeda better be on a short leash.
  3. Mike Sixel
    Of course it's a great idea.
  4. Mike Sixel
    I'm thinking Farmer is the starting 3B until Miranda can throw. Or until Lee says "just put me in, coach".
  5. Mike Sixel
    Wow, all these guys are faster than Martin?

    Are people still discussing if they should trade a decent RP for not much, because of value? Because I thought that was the point, which makes little sense to me. Odds of getting anything if value for him are very low, but he holds certain present value. As for the polanco example, it would be foolish to trade a great, cost controlled player while your team is good. That's literally the guy you are trying to trade for...

    They aren't pulling healthy good pitchers after 4 or 5 innings....They didn't last year, the year before, or the year before. I do agree, though, that with Maeda and Mahle, I'd like one bridge guy (Hoffman?) in the bullpen (not Ober, he's a legit starter). I'd prefer Ober start, and Maeda be in the pen (and just give him his starter bonus).

    How about their sushi?

    If Alcala is back, this bullpen looks very good to me. They were top 10 after the horrible start, and added Lopez and Alcala...An ordinary Lopez as your 5th or 6th best RP is a nice bullpen.

    Rocco doesn't set the team.
  11. Mike Sixel
    This. TB trades guys when they get expensive.....Polanco isn't expensive.

    I read it. We clearly disagree about what a number two pitcher is. I'm ok with that How many pitched 180 innings? 27, including Pablo Lopez. If you think there are only 27 aces and number two pitchers, your bar is higher than mine, that seems to be our disagreement. No biggie, we just don't agree.
  13. Mike Sixel
    How many pitchers threw 200 innings last year? 8 is the answer, btw Eye test? How many non twins games do you watch, so you can compare pitchers?
  14. Mike Sixel
    Either. It was more a pithy reply to a post that doesn't take any realistic definition of a number two pitcher
  15. Mike Sixel
    Go to fangraphs and sort by starting pitchers. You'll be surprised how good this group is, apparently. If you judge then by win loss record, I doubt we can agree at all.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Thanks to Royce for doing this! Looking forward to watching him be great.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Oddly, the best part of the team! Five number 2 starters, with Ober, Varland, and SWR in AAA? That's so much better than previous years.
  18. Mike Sixel
    If Polanco was a 7 WAR player, he;d be the highest paid Twins
  19. Mike Sixel
    Gordon against righties. Why do we think Farmer?
  20. Mike Sixel
    We, they, all of us? Hard to say for sure.
  21. Mike Sixel
    People have been arguing the season is over since the Gallo signing.....
  22. Mike Sixel
    I still don't get your point. Are they not getting ready, or doing it wrong? Or do you think everyone is hurt? I don't understand, and that's on me... I'm not worried about effectiveness at all, as I view the last year or three as much more predictive (other than injury) of how good they are (Ryan, Ober and Mahle).
  23. Mike Sixel
    Do we think casual fans have any idea what's going on right now?
  24. Mike Sixel
    The bar for DH is much lower than many think...... I predict Larnach is the DH when Buxton isn't. But I'd prefer Larnach get a 1B glove and learn that position also......given AK's health so far. I'm not sure why Wallner isn't listed as a prospect, Larnach is likely a better OFer than him..... If the Twins implode, it will be Julien, Wallner, Larnach (whomever isn't in the field) by the break.

    Because athletes aren't very good at protecting themselves, they are competitors, not doctors or LONG TERM thinkers.
