    Three good pitchers were traded. Two were possibly hurt, and one was too expensive. Those were the options, whether we like it or not. So, Mahle or ? Whether you wanted more or not isn't relevant to which starter was actually available. So, of the three, did you want one, or not? If so, which one? Castillo would cost Lewis, SWR and two more top five guys.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Only three good pitchers were traded, and two were potentially hurt, and they couldn't match what Seattle did. They tried to win, rather than sit still. I can't believe people wanted them to do nothing?

    I'm beginning to suspect KC isn't all that good at the hitting part of the game.....
  4. Mike Sixel
    Truth, not sarcasm.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Fair take. I'd like him up in the bullpen....but fair take.
  6. Mike Sixel
    I count 13 good starts and 7 bad starts for Bundy. While I generally think fWAR makes sense, I think that pitchers are different every five days. Some days are good, some bad. I don't think you can peanut butter their play across the year like you can hitters. If you had been told you'd get 13 good and 7 bad starts from Bundy at the beginning of the year, you'd be thrilled. Very thrilled.

    If Mahle is hurt, I'd like to see the Twins be as aggressive as Atlanta has been, and promote SWR into the rotation. No chance of that, of course, but one can hope. And, I get others won't agree. Not trying to convince anyone.

    My strong belief is that Rutschman in going to win this. Five AL rookies have more fWAR than Miranda, btw. Two already have 3 fWAR!
  9. Mike Sixel
    We don't know yet.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Sigh. Crap. I hope he's ok Can't wait for people to somehow blame people for this if he's hurt.
  11. Mike Sixel
    They've both been better than I thought. So, yes.
  12. Mike Sixel
    A lot less off days this year, due to the late start to the year. That said, I doubt he's starting a game in the post season, though if he did, four innings would be great
  13. Mike Sixel
    And Royce Lewis who is also in the top 100.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Because Verlander is a hall of fame pitcher that has shown he can go further into games. Not that it matters, he isn't signing here.
  15. Mike Sixel
    How is Contreras not on this list? I'd be very happy if they signed him, and I'm a Jeffers fan.
  16. Mike Sixel
    I don't think he's going anywhere. Like I said, I'd be ok if they got the right deal, but I would be happy if they kept him.
  17. Mike Sixel
    David Ortiz would like a word with you about hitting behind the runner.... And, sacrifice bunts are a terrible idea before the 8th inning. Terrible.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Who says it is?
  19. Mike Sixel
    There is no reason he should be on a contender's roster. I've lost faith in the front office over this, frankly.
  20. Mike Sixel
    And? My point was that if they have Buxton and another healthy starter, and think the can get something for Max, they might be ok. They aren't dealing Larnach. Also, I'd bet Larnach puts up 2 fwar easy next year, if healthy
  21. Mike Sixel
    There aren't many great pitchers available next year. They'll have to outbid everyone for one of three, maybe four.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Pagan has been not good for years. His HR rate is insane. He should not be on this roster.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Odds either puts up 2-3 WAR next year? Slim? Now, if Larnach is healthy, and they want to roll the dice on dealing Max (if they spend the money elsewhere)? I'm ok with that.
  24. Mike Sixel
    I meant to type three, my bad.
  25. Mike Sixel
    The first two are easy. As is Archer, given how few innings he pitches I'm unsure on Bundy. They have two healthy, likely good, pitchers next year. I'm not sure Bundy is worth 11 million, but I'm not sure he's not either.
