    Maybe I'm just in a good mood coming off vacation....but they've been around .500 since the awful start. Add Buxton in there, sign one good SP (or trade for one) and one ok SP, and have the bullpen not implode, and I think that team can compete.
  2. Mike Sixel
    All these quotes make me optimistic he stays. And I hope he does. I'd like to keep them both, frankly..... But I don't get the same vibe from Berrios.... The incentives need to be relatively easy to obtain.... He's healthy, he gets the huge bucks. He's not, he gets the big bucks. I'm quite shocked that it looks like a long term deal.....

    You must be reading very different scouting reports about his fielding. Who plays left if Larnach is in right?
  4. Mike Sixel
    If you trade Kepler.... Who plays right? Is there anyone in the system that is an outfielder that can hit and field other than Buxton and Kepler? Not Rooker. Not Larnach. Not Celestino. Why trade him?
  5. Mike Sixel
    Someone said that? I sure didn't.
  6. Mike Sixel
    They are. 500 since their bad start. Add Buxton and a good pitcher, replace shoemaker with one of the rookies..... Sure, the last two years he's been negative.... Barely. Ok.... Who can field the corners? Who plays right if he's gone?
  7. Mike Sixel
    That average is way off. Way off. Also, three gives him another chance at free agency. Most everyone here said if it was 70 that it was four years, now we hear it is seven, and people think it makes sense for Byron?
  8. Mike Sixel
    Not next year. Lewis won't be starting the year in Minnesota. And none of those corner players are ready other than larnach. Unless you are punting next year.... Then maybe. And Larnach isn't as good as Kepler, and can't back up center.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Name the better one on the roster, which is my point.....Name a better RF or LF on D.....and, I'm not sure the stats agree with you: https://www.fangraphs.com/players/max-kepler/12144/stats?position=OF
  10. Mike Sixel
    They don't have a corner OF that can hit and field either......and Celestino isn't ready. Not even close. If this wasn't a lost year, Max would 100% be in center right now.
  11. Mike Sixel
    I think dealing Kepler is an awful idea. If Buxton is gone, Max is the CF. NO ONE in AAA, maybe AA, can both hit and field at this point (for an OF). Kepler can. Larnach probably isn't a good fielder either. I don't get trading Kepler at all.
  12. Mike Sixel
    If I'm Bryon, I want 12-15 guaranteed....then easy incentives to get to 20, then more to get to 25-27....... I still think he's dealt in the off season, gets an arbitration number, then goes to FA and gets 3/75 or so.
  13. Mike Sixel
    They really need a SS, IF they can find a trade partner with a top SS prospect, that should be considered.
  14. Mike Sixel
    I would really like a good SS prospect in a trade......but there aren't really any at AA or above on a contender (unless Groshans can stick.....so, next up I want SP and another catcher. I'd include Rortverdt in a deal to get a better catching prospect back (plus the pitcher).....
  15. Mike Sixel
    They took an awful pitching staff, and won the division two years in a row, making the starters top 10 in the majors both years. How quickly we forget. Really.
  16. Mike Sixel
    So he takes twenty for two years in free agency. Then does it again.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Laughably low offer on the base. Smells like previous efforts to sign free agents that weren't market value.....
  18. Mike Sixel
    I'm guessing those weren't the same people..... No idea what to do with Sano at this point.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Show me another industry where profits aren't tied to performance, businesses never sell for less than a massive profit, and employees have no freedom for up to a decade to decide their employer.
  20. Mike Sixel
    This is ridiculously naive. No. It didn't work. Owners didn't pay fair pay. Not even close.
  21. Mike Sixel
    So the players are just required to work for one team forever? You realize they are people, right? Like teams would every pay fair value in that system.
  22. Mike Sixel
    He's not fetching anything in return, imo. We'll see if I'm wrong in the next two months.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Up to 10 and 11 in the mid season update.....
  24. Mike Sixel
    In addition to winning the division twice, moving from an awful pitching staff to a good one both years?
