    That's what I would do if I was the Angels....
  2. Mike Sixel
    They have 30 million, at least, to spend. And Cruz and probably Rosario leave after this year. They have more than enough money to extend the players they have, and sign a legit FA.

    If the infield defense was good, I'd go with the Keuchel plan, but no way I do that with Sano, Polanco, Arraez in the infield. No way. And I like Keuchel..... I can't decide between the other two. I lean the expensive pitcher plan, because I just don't see how they get another good pitcher w/o spending money on one, and I don't think they have enough pitching to be elite as a team right now......but Ryu makes me nervous, and I have no idea what Bumgarner is or is not going forward (I think good, like #3 or better with flashes of #1 sometimes).....But the 3B is a much safer bet.....but then, you can find good 3B much easier than good SP (and next year's FA pitching class is meh)...... So, um, Bumgarner I guess.

    No real surprise. That's how I would start negotiations if I was him. I have no idea how he'll age..... It's surely risky, but so is trusting bad players to get better, like Perez, or rookies to be good.

    Minnesota beat one good team, and Auburn is over rated? I think Minnesota will be fortunate to win this game. They are still not as deeply talented as the top teams. Hopefully, this year's success helps change that.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Like whom? What great pitcher is on a bad team, with only a year or two of control?
  7. Mike Sixel
    I was excited. I wanted him up and playing, even more. Certainly didn't expect last year, but he's always been a good hitter.
  8. Mike Sixel
    How would that hamstring the team? They have thirty or forty million to work with. Cruz comes off next year. Probably Rosario. Where else are they going to spend money? Buxton, Berrios and Sano, maybe. Not Garver, he's an older catcher. Next year's free agent pitching class is not pretty.
  9. Mike Sixel
    How will signing a guy past 2 years hinder keeping the core? Odo will be gone, Cruz will be gone. Rosario will likely be gone, if not in 21, then in 22. Of the core, only Buxton, Sano, and Berrios will need signing in the next two-three years (you aren't extending a catcher that can't be a free agent until he's 31 any time soon).
  10. Mike Sixel
    I really thought Pineda would get three years, and more money.... From someone else. A pleasant surprise that he's back.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Nice backup signing. And thankfully they saved money.
  12. Mike Sixel
    I agree we will see another move, I'm hoping for a really good pitcher still....
  13. Mike Sixel
    In any other year, they don't need four starters. It's a good move, but they need another. Unless people think the minors are three deep in starters....
  14. Mike Sixel
    I'm all in on extended netting. Goof for them.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Correct....way too early to judge this off season.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Berrios and, um, Gibson. That's it in how long? Not a good track record to be sure. Hopefully this FO and development team is better than the last decade was.....
  17. Mike Sixel
    That's what happens when you enter an off season with only two pitchers. Failure to acquire a pitcher in previous years is haunting this team. Free agency is the price you pay for those failures.
  18. Mike Sixel
    I'd try him in the bullpen, but not as a starter at this point.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Strasburg will be in Washington, I have no doubt. Cole will not be in MN, I have no doubt.
  20. Mike Sixel
    I like Keuchel, but not so much if the infield is Sano/Polanco/Arraez......
  21. Mike Sixel
    He opted out of 4/100......
  22. Mike Sixel
    I'm guessing 6/180 for Strasburg.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Still not close.
  24. Mike Sixel
    This team, according to you on other posts, should be signing a big time pitcher this year. So I'm not sure what you are arguing here.
  25. Mike Sixel
    It's a pattern. If it wasn't a pattern, it would be different.... That said, it is way too early to judge this off season yet....way too early
