    They are close to the best team in baseball, so I'm not sure they are making them look more "good than necessary." That said, Twins are closer to the worst team in baseball than the best, and it has been how long for this FO?
  2. Mike Sixel
    Truth. didn't see him being this effective. Nice bonus for sure.
  3. Mike Sixel
    hahahahahahahaha. Seriously, that was pathetically "funny". How anyone can continue to defend this FO is beyond me. And I'm done with Rocco at this point, unless Julien is hurt.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Two nil, is this game over? Maybe.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Ha, no. They have three "young" players on this roster. Three.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Lee's been good, just not dominant like many of us hoped. Would be nice to have one insanely fast riser, great player rise up under this FO.
  7. Mike Sixel
    A 6 ERA, and they look futile. But sure, the FO should stay while they do nothing to adjust....nothing. Nada. Nil. Zip.

    Alcala, Stewart, Thielbar all hurt. Sands ineffective. Henriquez just back. De Leon hurt. That's 4 decent to good RPs hurt, and two that likely aren't that good, though Henriquez at least intrigues me. Look, we can look at all the anecdotes we want, but Gleeman has posted very compelling stats. Pagan has been the worst RP in baseball for four years when it comes to adding value in indiividual games and relative ERA. There is no reason to have him on the roster. He's PROVEN to be bad for four years now. I don't care which minor leaguer they call up to replace him. That person has not proven to be the worst in baseball. WInder and Balazovich should be in MN, either thriving or failing. This team is NOT a good team, so find out what those two have. Put them in positions of stress, and see what happens.

    I must have misunderstood your post.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Where would you put him in AAA, given larnach, Wallner, Celestino, Stevenson, and Contreras are there? I mean, at the beginning of the year, when that's how the pecking order was, would you have put him in AAA?
  11. Mike Sixel
    Whe even come in the thread, then, if you aren't interested? Dude was hurt for two years, and the pandemic years didn't help.....he's healthy and playing very well. Good for him. I guess one can choose not to be happy for him.....
  12. Mike Sixel
    Ya, but I've even reduced the game threads lately......I'm all in on the minor leagues and draft stuff right now, which I think tells one everything about what I think about THIS team.
  13. Mike Sixel
    I've given up on this year. My investment is in firing the FO, promoting the "kids", and starting over. I pay attention to the score, but I have no illusions that this team is good.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Great stuff, thanks, I prefer the Saints OF to the Twins at this point......and hope against hope they move 2 or 3 up, and likewise promote guys from lower levels in kind....
  15. Mike Sixel
    I wouldn't be disappointed.
  16. Mike Sixel
    I'm not bummed about the Ks.....they faced the top strikeout pitcher tonight. Just, everything else on offense..... Something needs to change (or not, but if it doesn't, I'm 100% in favor of selling at the deadline, even if they are leading the division - words I never thought I'd type.).
  17. Mike Sixel
    Love these updates! thank you
  18. Mike Sixel
    Il Buxton already.
  19. Mike Sixel
    I typed that before the HR. I blame the FO for this 100% Fire them already.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Pagan? I mean, seriously, all my plans for next week are imploding, and now we bring in Pagan?
  21. Mike Sixel
    Almost everything is a hit now.
  22. Mike Sixel
    If they lose 2-1, someone will still believe that pitching wins are a useful stat.....That was a great start against an incredibly hot team on the road. (assuming he finishes 7 w/o imploding)
  23. Mike Sixel
    I can only go by what I read, and I don't LOVE what I read about Dollander....hence Clark wins that battle for me. Thanks for all your excellent work, btw. Really enjoying it. Now that I've typed that first sentence, I don't want him at 5. Gotta LOVE a guy you pick at five (but again, I'm not scouting these guys).
  24. Mike Sixel
    I'd certainly consider it.....I've waffled on him.....It is so hard to get an ACE or even number 2 pitcher. There just aren't that many out there.....and if they are ever FAs, forget it. Fangraphs isn't in love with his fastball (they aren't in love with Lowder or Walldrp fastballs either). Lowder and Walldrop look under rated on your consensus board.... But, if the choice is Dollander or Clark? I have no idea what I'd do. If it is Skenes or Dollander, it is Skenes.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Jeffers is example 1000000 why fans and their impatience should not be GMs......sometimes you have to trust the process and your evaluation (if you are a FO).....It's why maybe people shouldn't conclude anything about young players with good pedigrees for a year or two....
