    I predict Dozier is traded for a "meh" prospect or two. That's it. And then the team keeps playing veterans with no future here.
  2. Mike Sixel
    we are in season 3.....
  3. Mike Sixel
    The Astros have the best rotation in the game, maybe one of the best in a very long time.....so, sure, he won't crack the best rotation in the game. How about the Yankees? Or the Cubs? He's better than any Cubs pitcher this year..... Basically, the question is.....did he make a real change last year? Is he now a legit number 2? Feel free to think not, but the data for the last 12 months indicates otherwise. Projection systems say otherwise. I bet most teams think he's a 2/3 right now, and for next year.

    gibson is 26th in WAR this year.......what is your definition? he's 49th since the beginning of last year, counting the first half, before he made his change in approach.....of all pitchers with at least 250 innings pitched. His projection for the rest of the year is better than any Brewer pitcher..... I could keep going, but I doubt people are listening.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Wut? He's been a number 2 for over a year now. I really don't get what people are typing about Gibson on these threads.

    If they could make cars.....but I agree, someday someone will figure out how to make an electric car I want, and can afford, and actually deliver it......and I don't have any confidence it is Tesla.
  7. Mike Sixel
    just examples.....I can name a lot more. Tesla may or may not be a disrupter, that's really the key question at this point, to me. I'm out, I was in, but i'm out now. but, I get why some people (a lot) are in.
  8. Mike Sixel
    got it. makes sense, if there are any of those left that are good/great prospects. I know people don't think the rankings mean much for these young guys, but they actually appear to be as good a predictor as draft picks......more expensive guys have a higher likelihood of being good.
  9. Mike Sixel
    I'm not sure we should rely on valuations at this point.....its what kept people out of FB and AMZN and others.......I get your point, but I'm not sure I agree.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Can't trade for next year's money. But you can for this year's. I don't know who is left. KLAW recently answered my question about Gibson by saying he thought they could compete next year, so he would hold him. I would deal him for the right package. As for his worth? He's projected to be better than any brewer starter the rest of the year. I'd easily deal Lynn, odorrizi, Rodney, Duke, Santana.
  11. Mike Sixel
    I've gone in and out.....really don't know what to do there. So, no? Sort of? It's a hard one to pin down for me.
  12. Mike Sixel
    No rookies to speak of, no second year players hardly....and terrible veterans and players that just never play. I agree. They are giving us neither a present day product, nor a look at a future product.
  13. Mike Sixel
    There's no reason for Jeffers to be where he is. Promote him
  14. Mike Sixel
    Why is Morrison coming back? It's time to move on.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Why would he turn it down? Take 18 million, then sign a two year deal after that. That's way more money than he'll get on a three year deal this year. Not even close, imo
  16. Mike Sixel
    Sure, but you can trade him and likely do that. I am truly surprised anyone would pay him 18 million for one year, especially for a year that had a low shot at being a playoff year.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Kind of surprised, actually. I am encouraged.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Escobar is not turning down the QO. He can take that, and then get a "meh" contract in a year, and make way more money combined. In the mean time, the Twins get nothing other than one more year of a guy that should be a utility player on a good team.....I can't see how that's a good investment of limited budgetary dollars. But, I guess I could be wrong, and he's a legit MLB starter on a good team.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Or they changed their mind, or who knows.....
  20. Mike Sixel
    I sympathize with this stance, but have a different priority. Neither of us is wrong, btw....just have different interests.
  21. Mike Sixel
    What if it isn't to open up space for Gordon, but to get lucky and get a good player? I mean, what is the point in keeping them, assuming they aren't catching CLE.
  22. Mike Sixel
    i'm hoping he's the Robert Smith of MLB, and now will be healthy and great.....
  23. Mike Sixel
    defense counts. If it didn't, no one would be talking about how Buxton can be good even w/o hitting much. And no, I'm not saying Kepler is like Buxton on defense, but then, they aren't comparable on offense either....
  24. Mike Sixel
    If your option is to keep EE and then let him go in FA, or offer him 18MM next year.....or trade him for a guy further away than you want, I trade him for a guy further away than I want. I doubt the option is to get a guy that will help in a meaningful way next year.
  25. Mike Sixel
    I'd say that's the camp I'm in......
