    It really is amazing that anyone thinks he's healthy enough to play, but the FO just doesn't want him out there.....seriously amazing.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Guessing here, but they trade a few minor prospects for some RP. It's hard to see what more they could/would trade, assuming they continue to hover around .500 and with the players in the majors and AAA / AA. Me? Well, I'd do a lot of things right now, but it's not up to me, and you asked what I think they will do.....
  3. Mike Sixel
    Here's the thing....meltdowns that produce a 50% increase in your team losing are MUCH MORE costly than 5 appearances where you increase the odds of your team winning by 10%. Every game player appearances move the needle 5-10% up and down.....and your teammates can do the same. It takes an accumulation of such events to win or lose a game. But changing the likelihood of winning by 50%? That's hard to over come, positively or negatively. That's the issue here. Any mediocre RP can come in and move the needle up and down by 10% every game. Only a handful can do this, year after year, and still have a job.

    Still have no idea why Julien never played 1B in the minors. He's not a good fielder if he has to move....we've seen that. And, AK can play RF, maybe even LF. Oh well, I've given up hope they move on from Kepler, and believe this is ANOTHER wasted year due to the FO not building a complete team.
  5. Mike Sixel
    That whole post is bonkers. Put Lee in LF? Seriuosly?
  6. Mike Sixel
    If he can move to a corner, then sure, it is worth a shot. But if not, he's basically Julien....and as we're seeing, it is hard to find space for a guy like that. Hard, not impossible.....
  7. Mike Sixel
    Good stuff. No 1B with that pick, please.
  8. Mike Sixel
    I did not anywhere make that claim. Not once ,anywhere. I suggested we discuss the topic of the thread, should Pagan be on the roster. Nothing more or less. I did suggest, as Gleeman has pointed out over and over, that Pagan has been terrible for multiple years, and that Jax was good last year.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Jax was good last year. Pagan is not. It's possible to discuss one player. Should pagan be on this roster? Not other players, pagan? I vote no.
  10. Mike Sixel
    He's been terrible for several years. He should not be on this roster. It's one reason I'd fire the FO at this point.
  11. Mike Sixel
    We're going to second guess a move everyone praised? Also, I audibly gasped at a performance of the ninth. It's the most powerful live performance I've ever seen.
  12. Mike Sixel
    The realistic ceiling? One playoff series win. The pitching is great...... I'm with y'all here. Kepler and pagan need to go. I've lost confidence in this from office though, so I'm not holding my breath.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Facts ...
  14. Mike Sixel
    Pagan and Kepler should not be in this roster. At some point the manager has to use them...
  15. Mike Sixel
    Who's trading for Cousins? I mean, I'd blow it up also, but if you squint you can see a legit team.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Tampa doesn't trade their best players while in a pennant race. Come on.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Kepler. Predictable. That's all I got. Nothing funny left about him for me
  18. Mike Sixel
    I count three guys I want playing in this lineup, maybe 4. That's it. Seriously awful lineup options.
  19. Mike Sixel
    For the love all life on earth, can the Kyle Garlick experiment please end?
  20. Mike Sixel
    good points. I'm not sure most of that matters, but we can disagree on that. As you say, he does have control over those things, unlike the fact his supposed best players are playing at replacement level, give or take.
  21. Mike Sixel
    That might, might, nibble at the edges.....but until Buxton and CC and Polanco hit and they FO ditches Kepler, that's not enough.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Jeffers has the 9th most fWAR among all catchers in baseball.....so, I think you may be underselling him some....He should be playing more. He's hitting 45% better than the average MLB hitter (all of them, not catchers). Overall, I agree. No idea what anyone wants Rocco to do given the outcomes these hitters are producing right now.
  23. Mike Sixel
    I mean, let's hope so, because it might be the only way the FO finally cuts Kepler free......one can hope, anyway.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Rocco doesn't make the decision. That's the FO. At least let's criticize the right people here....
  25. Mike Sixel
    ? Did I correct you? No idea....I was just commenting that I feel bad for the guy. Clearly a legit MLB player, if he can get healthy.
