    I'm not exactly confident.....
  2. Mike Sixel
    Two catchers is the right idea. I don't believe in Rooker, but I don't in Garlick either, so, not sure? Plus, when the one who stays is bad, there are replacements in the minors.... So not sure it matters.
  3. Mike Sixel
    Sure, but they have prospects not that closes to the majors. I guess I've made my side clear,I don't see them freaking players that will help them this year, others do. Doesn't matter, the twins aren't trading their RF for pitching prospects.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Why would they trade him? They are trying to compete.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Like whom, that is major league ready? Can't be anyone they trust, as they are trading for pitching... Why would they give up anyone close, and if they aren't close, why are the twins trading for them?
  6. Mike Sixel
    What's the risk in losing Rooker? He's not a young DH who hasn't hit yet.
  7. Mike Sixel
    What quality pitcher is San Diego trading? They are trading for pitching right now.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Why? Why would you trade him? He's paid little for what he does. And, they don't have another RF ready. What would SD have to give back?
  9. Mike Sixel
    I don't think they will, btw. I think they should, if they won't use him at C.
  10. Mike Sixel
    If they don't think Sanchez can catch, I'd just release him or trade him for nothing (other than saving some of the money). Sano should be the DH, as he's atrocious at first (somehow). I'd put almost anyone at first rather than him. They could not be worse. Arraez should be the LF or 1B, though maybe they don't want him running around in the OF.
  11. Mike Sixel
    They don't need three catchers. I bet they do that, but why? Unless they've given up on Sanchez at catcher completely.... In which case, just release him.
  12. Mike Sixel
    They are better at pitching. Gray is about Berrios. Ryan is Pineda, and no one will be as bad as Shoemaker was last year.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Last year they could have put it in Wade or Addoo, who were unproven, which would have been fine......Cave didn't work. That doesn't make it a bad plan to not spend real money on a backup....
  14. Mike Sixel
    What team doesn't have a chasm between an MVP candidate and his backup? Really, what is your realistic expectation here? What backup CF is out there? And, at some point, every rookie or first or second year player is unproven.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Let's hope they don't keep taking bat first corner players in round 1.....
  16. Mike Sixel
    Buxton in Center and Correa at SS is getting by? Unproven rookies? I am baffled by this post, truly. Then they have Lewis and Celestino and Martin that can play CF if needed long term, two of whom are top 100 prospects, and the other is highly rated. Catcher is an issue, but I'm not sure what you realistically expect.
  17. Mike Sixel
    2 ish WAR from a medium paid player is fine. That's his "floor", give or take. I'd bet on 2.5 WAR this year, and people will still think he's not good enough.
  18. Mike Sixel
    I'd bet good money Martin outhits and out defenses AK in left right now. Put AK at first, and Martin in LF. Trade Sano for a bag of beans if you have to at this point.....because the D is going to be terrible with this alignment.
  19. Mike Sixel
    C+.... And only because of Correa and Buxton. None of the other moves are ones I love. Had they signed one good starting pitcher, I'd move it to an A-..... But they are betting way too much on the guys in the minors, imo. I like the Gray move...btw. maybe love it?
  20. Mike Sixel
    Which has nothing to do with who is in AA vs AAA. Do people really think Lewis is ready for AAA, and Martin is not? Based on what history?
  21. Mike Sixel
    And what has Lewis done at any level above A? That's the part I don't get. Why Lewis would be in AAA, above Martin. And, yes, he was great last year, no power or not.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Crazy. He can hit, dominated AA already. What has Lewis done? I don't understand.
  23. Mike Sixel
    And what of Martin? Because he can actually hit and should be in AAA.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Please don't take a bat first corner guy early. Please.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Ditto. Also, they DON'T need 3 catchers. If someone gets hurt, fly the dude to where they are. Pinch hit for the DH spot if you somehow lose it..... If they put Rooker in LF, Buxton better be VERY fast..... No surprise on Miranda. I'm disappointed Larnach isn't ready, maybe they should stop drafting bat first guys in round 1? Maybe?
