    For not having gone in way too long, it wasn't bad at all. Phew.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Y'all were making pulling teeth comments while I was reading the thread in the dentist waiting room......thanks....
  3. Mike Sixel
    It's not that close. They've gotten lucky on D a few times....

    Boston Red Sox pitchers. Ouch. Not good.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Sigh.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Definitely only one free game, as far as I can tell. And it isn't great since Boston can't pitch at all.

    2 feet of snow in the mountains this weekend likely The ski resorts are soooooo happy after last year.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Agreed.
  9. Mike Sixel
    I know it seems odd, as much as I post here, but I wouldn't pay a penny to watch baseball online right now. Just so many other things I'd rather do.

    Suits are likely dumber than unis. Heck, in Boston they dude is wearing a hoodie because it is cold. Have them wear hoodies and collared shirts and sell the bleep out of them....

    We already have HS players saying they don't choose baseball for this reason.....they can make so much more in football or basketball (not that it is realistic for the vast majority of them), and make it day one without 5 years riding buses and losing money (though your plan fixes the money losing issue). Really, they can afford more than they are now paying....no issue. They choose not to, which is their right, of course. Economics is the thing we'll never agree on when it comes to baseball.....I'm ok with that.

    No blackout issues for me....it only shows one free game for me today, not all of them.
  13. Mike Sixel
    It's only letting me watch one game right now....but that could be me...
  14. Mike Sixel
    I'm celebrating opening day by going to the dentist for the first time in much too long.....
  15. Mike Sixel
    This is the worst idea ever for so many reasons. What top athlete will ever choose baseball again, if they have an option? The best players should be paid like the best players? This would 100% drive down baseball participation and pay overall. Awful idea.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Analytics would say ignore spring stats 100x out of 100 (other than indications of injury).
  17. Mike Sixel
    Why do coaches even wear uniforms. It is stupid. /rant
  18. Mike Sixel
    Paddock is a unicorn for me, if he starts more than 10 games, I'll be surprised. Big believer in Ober, SWR and Varland to number number 3 types, maybe one of them is better. You know, bring in those three and keep Lopez and sign Nola....or something...

    Riddled? They have two guys hurt (check out some of the pitching staffs across the league), and they added depth at every position. I have no idea how they are riddled at all. Patchwork? Larnach is a legit starter when healthy. Buxton and Kepler are also (and Taylor / Gordon / Gallo are all legit backups, potential starters). Then you have Miranda who looks more than legit, Correa, an injured Polanco (backed up by Gordon, Farmer, and others) and an injured AK (backed up Gallo). They have one or two starting catchers healthy....... I'd guess in this environment, every team needs to average (or very close to) 5 runs a game to be over .500.....
  20. Mike Sixel
    I'd guess it is older than average...I'll look....
  21. Mike Sixel
    Dobnak has been better, by far, than a guy no one has signed to a MLB deal.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Nm.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Not one young starter is in the rotation. This is an odd stance, imo.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Got it. I think it's about depth, not trust. I think I'd start all three in Minnesota next year, but that would crush the depth. I would move Maeda to the bullpen and pay him, and put Ober in Minnesota now, but it's not up to me.
  25. Mike Sixel
    I think so. Only one.
