    2020 and 2021 are rounding errors from the average. Is this really a concern?
  2. Mike Sixel
    Which elite RP do you think they should sign right now?
  3. Mike Sixel
    we will forgo getting rocked and/or building length when we eventually start our younger guys - Ober, Winder, Varland, and SWR; ........ None of those are happening. I guess I didn't understand what this meant. Nor did you really address the main point about starters going longer....
  4. Mike Sixel
    You realize this was not the strategy before last year, right? When they had Archer and Bundy (both bad and hurt) and Ryan who was a rookie (wanted to limit his innings so he didn't tire like Lopez)? Not to mention some injuries? I guess if you assume they will get rocked when they start every other starter, well, why even try to get better if you just assume they will fail anyway?
  5. Mike Sixel
    It's almost like people forget this was NOT the strategy before last year, when they had injured and bad starters. I have no idea why anyone thinks it will be the same as last year. none. I also see no need to add any of the available RPers. I'm not 100% sure they are better than the existing options, especially if Alcala is healthy. If they are in at the break, and need a RP, and a great one is there, they will trade for them.

    Like Rooker or Sabato?
  7. Mike Sixel
    Sure. The difference is meaningless....I agree. But was Enlow good before he was hurt? Do we think Headrik goes unselected if not on the forty man, or DFAd? I think not.
  8. Mike Sixel
    I also was not a fan of the Sabato pick. That's just not my profile for a top pick. I want a pitcher or four or five tool player in round one. Just my bias. I don't want more Rookers in round one, and yes, I know he wasn't round one.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Sands really should be a relief pitcher. I have no idea how Enlow is rated higher than Headrik. No idea. I have no idea how I feel about anyone else.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Excellent post. People are very unrealistic about drafts and about trades. Not to mention impatient. And blame people for injuries.
  11. Mike Sixel
    I'd be utterly shocked if they went pitcher, no matter what happens..... Fun article, thanks!

    For some time now, when I go to a thread, it expands horizontally on my phone. I'm assuming an ad is too wide? Pretty much every time I open a thread. Android, chrome.
  13. Mike Sixel
    I hope so
  14. Mike Sixel
    Or, put Lee at third..... You're also assuming they have another player as good a defender as Lewis available for the OF.....
  15. Mike Sixel
    Not the trade to get Gallen.....I was very disappointed the twins didn't do that one.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Hopefully the twins have that kind of patience, rather than the lack thereof posters here have! You are right. Viola wasn't good his first year. Not sure berrios was.....
  17. Mike Sixel
    It would be a waste to use his speed and arm in the OF, along with his hitting? Speechless.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Arraez isn't close to MVP. Also, they aren't overloaded....they literally used 9 OFers last year. I'm guessing he's going to turn 2 with Polanco, who is a better overall player than Arraez (O, D, running all taken into account). As for the SP, they are also not overloaded. I'd be shocked if we don't see Varland, Ober, and SWR all start games this year.
  19. Mike Sixel
    I thought we were discussing Lopez! You have to give up quality to get quality. If you only trade crap prospects, good luck.
  20. Mike Sixel
    I don't know if we can draw any conclusions from this off-season other than the FO wants MUCH better depth at SP and OF. They never want a number five or AAAA starting pitcher pitching this year. They don't want to use their sixth thru eighth OF at the same time. Everything else is a guess.
  21. Mike Sixel
    Same.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Not with CC here.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Not punting last year is the reasoning. Should they have just not tried to win last year?
  24. Mike Sixel
    He put up a 3.75era last year. He was in the top fifty in fwar.
  25. Mike Sixel
    I don't think they misjudged last year. Their injury rate was insane, and the closer was awful at the beginning. Stuff happens.
