    Jay's too high. he's 24 and can't get out AA hitters as a RP. Awful pick, and not in hindsight. Stewart? I have no idea, but it's possible he's one of those guys that induces soft contact....we can hope. I have no idea why Jorge was cut, or whatever, even after clearing waivers. must be something....though I always figured he had to move to RP sooner rather than later.
  2. Mike Sixel
    trying to distract you from being frustrated by the actual team, I'd guess. consider it a feature!
  3. Mike Sixel
    i think it is the pitchers....but the FO has to make it clear that they don't get to decide, and that they want them to give Garver more of a chance......
  4. Mike Sixel
    thanks for reminding me!
  5. Mike Sixel
    It's hard to be impressed, given the Belisle decision, and their refusal to use the AAA RP shuttle plan. But, they get 1 more year from me before I really start deciding.....but ya, the results aren't stellar so far.
  6. Mike Sixel
    to be clear, I want Rooker in AAA....I don't know if I care if he's in MN this year, unless the clubhouse gets cleaned out..... btw, KLAW said in his chat today that wanting Lewis in high A was impatience, which was odd because two answers above this he said we are seeing more younger players come up and succeed.....
  7. Mike Sixel
    I think Cave has a shot at a long career as a backup OF....and he should be playing every day until Buxton is back.
  8. Mike Sixel
    No good FA catchers out there.....indeed, the list of difference maker FA is quite small....
  9. Mike Sixel
    No one is suggesting trading Mauer.....and, top 100 prospects make the show way more often than "20%" of the time, that was my point.....so do top 200 prospects, and probably top 300 prospects. So, that 80% fail number you posted didn't take into account the type of prospect they will get back in trade. IMO, of course.
  10. Mike Sixel
    So, bring back the same team, but without Mauer and Dozier? I don't understand how people think that will work.
  11. Mike Sixel
    I've asked the athletic guy to, he won't.
  12. Mike Sixel
    No place did I say to Minnesota. Seriously
  13. Mike Sixel
    Closing in on giving up on this front office. Their unwillingness to use the young players in a lost season hurts my brain, a lot.
  14. Mike Sixel
    I don't agree. Maybe they get guys in AA that will be up later next year. But I do think going from 90 losses this year to serious contender next year is unlikely......
  15. Mike Sixel
    How so? those guys are here beyond next year. I think they've given up on this year (good move), and probably next year (likely realistic, but meaning they don't use the money on Machado.....and likely pocket a lot).
  16. Mike Sixel
    very bummed the Rockies are falling, because he's the perfect "buy low" guy.....
  17. Mike Sixel
    I'd see if Colorado would bite on Gibson, any RP they want, and Dozier or Escobar for Jon Gray. I'd even throw in a SP from the minors if needed. Go big. If not something like that (which might not be realistic).....I'd try for A+ or AA guys right now. Then be aggressive with them. Philly, Washington, the Dodgers and Brewers and Cubs would be my targets. I'll post some targets later, pretty sure I am about to eat....
  18. Mike Sixel
    The Twins are likely to finish with around 90 losses, do you really think they are a contender next year? Without Dozier and Mauer? I don't.
  19. Mike Sixel
    this
  20. Mike Sixel
    Maybe they should promote the number 12 prospect in baseball at this point......
  21. Mike Sixel
    I was one of them, but he's not ready, agreed.
  22. Mike Sixel
    I'd hope we trust the front office not to trade for guys ranked around 500th.... How do people think this team competes, if it won't trade impending free agents? This team is not a serious contender next year. Imo
  23. Mike Sixel
    Valuable? They won't even call up the RP taking up space in place of the old, bad, veterans in the pen. So, why do they need the space? But sure, don't promote Lewis or Rooker yet. The rest of the league is getting younger...
  24. Mike Sixel
    They build that solid core by trading players for more players. Like Houston did. Absolutely trade him, unless you are signing Machado and trading for a catcher. So, yes, trade him.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Why is Lewis not promoted yet?
