    Remember, if they have one or two rookies starting as part of the plan, Pinedas placeholder for eight to ten starts will be the next guy. And when there is an injury, the next guy. How deep do people think the help in the minors is to start the year?
  2. Mike Sixel
    He's going to miss one forth of the year. Who pitches instead? Since you want Pineda to start, it would be someone you don't want to start....A backup. How deep into the farm is that player? Will he actually be ready after his suspension, or will he need a few weeks? All he had to do was work with team doctors. No way I sign him.
  3. Mike Sixel
    Bullpens, in meaningful games that aren't blowouts, are as effective as ever.... That's what the stats show across the league. Reliever stats overall look bad because there are so many blowouts and teams not even trying to field good players.
  4. Mike Sixel
    26? Good golly, he's a top fifty prospect.... What upside do you see in LaMarre?
  5. Mike Sixel
    Well, LaMarre is also there and playing. And, Kirilloff is a better hitter than Wade. And, Kirilloff hit better as he got healthier. Again, play it safe, or play for upside? In a playoff year? Upside.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Or you take a chance on upside. Or not, and just play guys you know are bad.
  7. Mike Sixel
    I'd like a team to play for upside, and stop worrying only about downside. There is no upside in some of these players being here. This is a year where you have a chance to win it all, take that chance, rather than be afraid it might not work.
  8. Mike Sixel
    We do know LaMarre isn't good, but he's here. We don't know with those two. That's the point, always choosing the least risk.
  9. Mike Sixel
    They lost their best pitcher for nearly the whole season, he just came back. I mean, sure, if you for some reason only want to look at two weeks, the twins might be worse off, but that's just silly. Cron, Cave, and Adrianza can't hold a candle compared to the Yankees injured. Seriously.
  10. Mike Sixel
    I think this is also true.
  11. Mike Sixel
    The Yankees and it isn't close. Who have a better record also.
  12. Mike Sixel
    So, Ryan LaMarre?
  13. Mike Sixel
    Been saying it all year, Jeffers will be a Twin as early as next year. Sure would have been nice if Gordon had been healthy all year.....
  14. Mike Sixel
    Not to mention this talk of sustainable success comes with one pitcher under contract for next year.
  15. Mike Sixel
    I think the Twins win at least one game this weekend. And then crush the tigers the rest of the way
  16. Mike Sixel
    Why would they possibly keep him on the roster at this point?
  17. Mike Sixel
    I'd guess early season Rosario is the outlier here.... He's now hitting worse than league average for the year....
  18. Mike Sixel
    And the terrible options playing instead have? At least with Kirilloff there is a chance.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Even if he dropped twenty points he'd still be more valuable than not playing at all... Maybe even more. That also doesn't explain the lack of pinch at bats....
  20. Mike Sixel
    12:16 Oddball Herrera: Should the Twins give Kirilloff a shot rather than hope a bunch of randoms in the OF can carry them to the division title? Flags fly forever, right? 12:17 Avatar Dan Szymborski: I would. mike sixel 1:29 Would you call up Kiriloff at this point? thanks< Keith Law 1:29 Probably not.
  21. Mike Sixel
    His usage this entire year has been mind boggling. Seriously.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Still wish they had signed Corbin....
  23. Mike Sixel
    26 years ago. By the one GM they've had that ever really went for it. Let's hope it happens again.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Very nice. I needed some good pitching to feel better about this team in the post season. It's been a tough week.... So this was nice
  25. Mike Sixel
    Well, we now know it won't be Kiriloff. Just wait though, in six years, when he's traded in his last year of control, it will be worth it.
