    Edited.... Not worth it.
  2. Mike Sixel
    The risk is he's bad and they don't move on, not the money. You know, like not moving on after three years. It's the opportunity cost.
  3. Mike Sixel
    At most, half a year of Lewis, the last year grey and Mahle and Maeda are under contract? I think that's right. If Lewis can be healthy for the first time in three years. That seems like a waste of those pitchers.
  4. Mike Sixel
    They gave up almost nothing....and they need one. Why not?
  5. Mike Sixel
    As for the actual moves yesterday, if he's a backup, I like this more and more. They need a backup SS. He is one. He also has two years of control left, and costs less. And, IMO, they added a better minor leaguer than they traded, and he doesn't have to be on the 40 man. So, all in all, the two trades make sense.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Where did I say the only option was to sign one of the big four? Or to sign them and a pitcher? Cleveland isn't winning anymore than the TWins are..... I think many teams are incompetent, actually. Look at Cincy, Pitts, CO. Detroit and KC. That's five w/o me even thinking about it. NO ONE in this thread is arguing against building mainly from inside at all. NO ONE. And, please, don't preach to me like I'm stupid. It's condescending at best.

    They aren't winning the division with Farmer at short and Miranda at third, with Buxton playing sixty games. Farmer is a backup. If Lee and Lewis hit, they have plenty of value at third or left field or second base in a year.

    Really need a delete function. I know I do
  9. Mike Sixel
    I said also ... Clearly they did other things, but those weren't the only things. I guess somehow I wasn't clear about that.
  10. Mike Sixel
    They also upgraded the minor league system, and got rid of a minor league player that needed to be on the 40 man, for a better one that doesn't.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Urshela only cost money and was already here....I wasn't sure they should, and they didn't. I assumed that meant Miranda at third. Now? I'm not sure. Because I have no interest in Miranda being the primary DH.
  12. Mike Sixel
    If Miranda isn't at third, he's no DH......and Arraez is at first, I assume.
  13. Mike Sixel
    come on. seriously.
  14. Mike Sixel
    If Miranda isn't playing third, his value is pretty low as a DH (Arraez at first, I assume).
  15. Mike Sixel
    5.9 million is a lot of insurance.....(If I read that right).
  16. Mike Sixel
    A really bad team should take a flyer for sure. If he somehow comes back, gold. But no contender can take him on at this point, I don't think. Not on a major league deal.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Not sure how I feel about this yet....he played 98 games at SS, are they not signing a SS? Seems pricey just to be a utility guy, that's my worry here.

    I get it, but all teams think they can fix a guy with this talent. It is a trait of every FO (from what I read online from former employees). But, you have a point.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Dan Hayes claims more teams were interested in him than Gio. I've spent a lot of time defending this FO, but they just lost me until they prove they know what they are doing. At some point, results matter. And his results have been awful for three years.
  21. Mike Sixel
    edit: moved to the Pagan thread
  22. Mike Sixel
    they claim he's healthy now.... :)
  23. Mike Sixel
    Rebuild? The guy was signed for 1 more year, and they have Miranda, Lewis, and Lee available for third, maybe Arraez. What says rebuild about this at all? On what planet is there even a rumor of Polanco going?
  24. Mike Sixel
    Same. I'd be thrilled with a highly random outcome player in return (put Wallner in RF at this point, or Larnach).
  25. Mike Sixel
    I did wonder yesterday about keeping him, given Miranda and Lee and Lewis......getting a pitcher that won't be on the 40 man for awhile makes sense (IF THEY SPEND THE MONEY).
