    Derrick Carr? I'd sign him for 25 million a year. But he's too risky for more, which I think he'll get
  2. Mike Sixel
    Correct. It's not that smaller pitchers never succeed, it's that the odds are they won't. These rankings don't come with ranges..... Mostly
  3. Mike Sixel
    I'm counting on someone being nuts, clearly. I agree, I'd not deal for him.....but I'd also not pay him this much if I'm MN. He's fun to watch, but they can't pay him this much. The more I think about it, the more I wonder WT* is going to happen with Kirk and the QB position after this year.....
  4. Mike Sixel
    This.
  5. Mike Sixel
    That was my thought. Dalvin and a 4th for a mid to high 3rd, that's my goal here......I'd do Dalvin and a 5th for a 4th, but I'd prefer the former.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Meh, once a team is so far behind they are putting out a position player, it is likely the 8th or 9th and each side MIGHT get one more at bat. Not sure that matters. But I get your point.
  7. Mike Sixel
    If Martin hits, he's your LF (with great speed), IMO. I would start Martin in AAA and let him do his thing with a healthy wrist this year. I agree with the rest of your alignment though.
  8. Mike Sixel
    That's highly dependent on if Lewis goes to third, or CF.....because I think Lee might go to third. Also, on Polanco being traded. Frankly, I'd trade Polanco after this year if Lee and Lewis and Julien look this good.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Just let a team forfeit if they want. Simple (other than sponsors and Vegas, of course)
  10. Mike Sixel
    I'd put him at first/ dh / 2nd and let it go at that. If Kiriloff is hurt, I'd like him at first / dh THIS year. Why not? Let's see what happens (maybe a month or so at AAA). His bat is good enough, I think, that I'd rather see him hitting than a few regulars already on the team.
  11. Mike Sixel
    100% sure you would have seen Varland and/or Ober do so this year, had they not traded for Lopez.
  12. Mike Sixel
    It's not as easy as I hoped, but I'm better at it as I get older.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Why do we care that some fans don't understand his greatness? Why? How does that effect us at all? Why let it bother you?
  14. Mike Sixel
    Not getting better
  15. Mike Sixel
    You should be embarrassed.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Pretty sure they are spreading the money out....I can't imagine they expect him to be good at 42
  17. Mike Sixel
    You're welcome
  18. Mike Sixel
    This isn't a real post, right? You want him not to use his actual last name, why?
  19. Mike Sixel
    I'd be thrilled with those numbers for a rookie
  20. Mike Sixel
    My favorite part was the Law and Order rerun bit!
  21. Mike Sixel
    No one outside Minnesota hyped him, and even that was muted. Nothing about them is similar, imo.
  22. Mike Sixel
    I'm a fan,, but giving examples of similar pitchers from twenty or more years ago doesn't work for me. Hitters are so much better at crushing the ball now. I think he's a number four starter, until he gets one plus pitch. That might be enough to get him to a good number three, because the rest of his stuff is good, if not yet elite. He's 22, and has a real chance to get better.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Imagine if Philly had taken him ..... Literally the only player outside Darrisaw I care if they keep.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Contrary to myth, hope and dreams are healthy. Those are different than expectations.....I too hope he's great!
  25. Mike Sixel
    Clearly an overly optimistic Twins fan given his ranking of Salas and Prielip...... I do miss reading his stuff, as along with fangraphs I think he writes well and acknowledges he isn't always sure. I don't think he's right on Lewis. Assuming Lewis plays about 80 games in center, he's super valuable.
