    They aren't pulling healthy good pitchers after 4 or 5 innings....They didn't last year, the year before, or the year before. I do agree, though, that with Maeda and Mahle, I'd like one bridge guy (Hoffman?) in the bullpen (not Ober, he's a legit starter). I'd prefer Ober start, and Maeda be in the pen (and just give him his starter bonus).

    How about their sushi?

    If Alcala is back, this bullpen looks very good to me. They were top 10 after the horrible start, and added Lopez and Alcala...An ordinary Lopez as your 5th or 6th best RP is a nice bullpen.

    Rocco doesn't set the team.
  5. Mike Sixel
    This. TB trades guys when they get expensive.....Polanco isn't expensive.

    I read it. We clearly disagree about what a number two pitcher is. I'm ok with that How many pitched 180 innings? 27, including Pablo Lopez. If you think there are only 27 aces and number two pitchers, your bar is higher than mine, that seems to be our disagreement. No biggie, we just don't agree.

    How many pitchers threw 200 innings last year? 8 is the answer, btw Eye test? How many non twins games do you watch, so you can compare pitchers?
  8. Mike Sixel
    Either. It was more a pithy reply to a post that doesn't take any realistic definition of a number two pitcher
  9. Mike Sixel
    Go to fangraphs and sort by starting pitchers. You'll be surprised how good this group is, apparently. If you judge then by win loss record, I doubt we can agree at all.

    I don't understand how this makes the twins better short or long term.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Thanks to Royce for doing this! Looking forward to watching him be great.

    CAR is a lot more likely to win their division the next three years than MNN is. Plus, it is about the money. I don't get how that's hard to understand.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Oddly, the best part of the team! Five number 2 starters, with Ober, Varland, and SWR in AAA? That's so much better than previous years.
  14. Mike Sixel
    If Polanco was a 7 WAR player, he;d be the highest paid Twins
  15. Mike Sixel
    Gordon against righties. Why do we think Farmer?
  16. Mike Sixel
    We, they, all of us? Hard to say for sure.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Maeda instills no confidence in me to go 5+ innings.
  18. Mike Sixel
    People have been arguing the season is over since the Gallo signing.....
  19. Mike Sixel
    Gordon should be about as good defensively as polanco.
  20. Mike Sixel
    No chance the Vikings pay that much, none. I guarantee that was the most money any team offered, or he'd have gone elsewhere.
  21. Mike Sixel
    I still don't get your point. Are they not getting ready, or doing it wrong? Or do you think everyone is hurt? I don't understand, and that's on me... I'm not worried about effectiveness at all, as I view the last year or three as much more predictive (other than injury) of how good they are (Ryan, Ober and Mahle).
  22. Mike Sixel
    Do we think casual fans have any idea what's going on right now?
  23. Mike Sixel
    The bar for DH is much lower than many think...... I predict Larnach is the DH when Buxton isn't. But I'd prefer Larnach get a 1B glove and learn that position also......given AK's health so far. I'm not sure why Wallner isn't listed as a prospect, Larnach is likely a better OFer than him..... If the Twins implode, it will be Julien, Wallner, Larnach (whomever isn't in the field) by the break.
  24. Mike Sixel
    This looks accurate, and I agree, Ober will be up by May. Also, I think I prefer Dobnak to Pagan, but I don't think the Twins do.
  25. Mike Sixel
    You probably don't want to know how often doctors are wrong......plus, surgery is a last resort. Fans seem to think (not you) that it's just a routine thing to cut open a body and do stuff to it. It isn't. No matter how routine it is, it isn't.
