    I think there needs to be a balance between defense, and late inning offense......so after inning 6, I'm more than willing to PH for him if they need a hit or two....

    I'm very glad they didn't pinch run for their DH, the last manager drove me crazy doing that (though he often did it with 2 outs, and the DH on first, IIRC, which is not a good idea, imo).
  3. Mike Sixel
    Love these summaries, thank you.

    even if Romero comes up and is great, Pressley would still be good to have on the team. I'm not sure there is a "good chance" that it will work, what are the odds of either player contributing even 1 WAR in any given season?

    when people look at trades for prospects, they almost always discount the current year or three's cost, and only look to the future. Like this year doesn't count in the equation....
  6. Mike Sixel
    In the mean time, they keep winning championships, rather than waiting for the future.

    As someone that never uses his glutes (and really should do his therapy again) I totally see how this would work. Glad they are doing stuff like this, frankly....

    Great write-up. Are any of last year's pitchers on the roster this year? They really need some help from the minors that sticks, and contributes. How many hitters? Debuts are nice. Serious contributions are needed.

    Not everyone shared that consensus, but I'm trying not to post every negative take I have..... Like I said, I expect him to be at least a good RP.....

    If Romero can't help.....it will be another reminder why trading minor league guys for actual MLB players is maybe a better idea than some here will admit.... That said, I have every confidence he'll be a good RP someday.

    My family all bleeds red. Well, not my kids, but all my aunts and uncles and cousins and parents.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Not that you asked, but I was born in Lincoln, my parents are from Omaha and Fairbury.

    What does this have to do with being employed by legal monopolies that are swimming in billions of revenue?
  14. Mike Sixel
    It's about pay. Not meals as pay. That should be obvious.

    Because they aren't human beings to them, just assets. And when you are a billionaire, it's important to make an extra five million a year.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Correct.

    No price for a soda is a good price.....
  18. Mike Sixel
    Terrible analogy, because there isn't a 25 person limit outside sports. That said, it's their best move of an otherwise underwhelming off-season.

    They care about knowing where they live. How would you like to be traded to another city? These are people, with families and friends and homes. Not widgets to be moved around as if they had no real value as humans
  20. Mike Sixel
    Preach it!
  21. Mike Sixel
    apparently the players don't want a pitch clock. They might lose money on their glove endorsements, I guess /s
  22. Mike Sixel
    I'm almost certain you missed some sarcasm....
  23. Mike Sixel
    the union has already said it did not agree to the three batter minimum.....but on other things, yes, it's likely a good sign.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Of course, A LOT less players will be called up in September....... but, more than 1 player will get that extra roster spot, due to injuries and shuttling......It is an interesting trade off. IMO, more players get more real time in the majors, but less players get September time. The total number of days in the majors is probably similar, but they are spread among less players (though still more than 1 player per team).

    In last week's post? I do.....
