    I also enjoy this! thanks! I imagine Diaz won't be anywhere near the top 20 anymore.....go look at the SS signed that year, the good ones, the ones the Twins had A LOT of cap to sign that year....sigh.

    Or getting a job where he won't lose money.....but for baseball? Sure.
  3. Mike Sixel
    you base your knowledge of his confidence on what? this fan base is brainwashed not to promote players fast, while the rest of the league gets younger and younger.....
  4. Mike Sixel
    Great of him to do this! Good luck to him
  5. Mike Sixel
    Whatever old, never good, veteran they can find is my guess.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Great post, fairly stated.
  7. Mike Sixel
    I really believe ownership picked the last manager....
  8. Mike Sixel
    That seems like a tiny number over a decade.... If we are going back to Dozier and Gibson. This team doesn't have enough good players. Is that in dispute?
  9. Mike Sixel
    You know what about how hard Cave works?
  10. Mike Sixel
    Sure we do, and that missed the point entirely. This team has failed to develop star players, even those in the top ten in protect lists. It signs old veterans, rather than promote relief pitchers, it's not good enough at the main job of a team. Every other team is getting younger, this team is not.

    Still waiting for a superstar for the twins to work out.... Seems like plenty of other top prospects are, all across the league. Bummer.

    Let's all remember, Ryan didn't think Palka would hit either. This is surprising. But a good manager wouldn't have Grossman in the field late, or ever. A good front office would probably not have him on the roster, if they have as many other candidates available. Imho. I do not understand their unwillingness to use young inexperienced relief pitchers, like much of the rest of the league, in a rotation with Rochester. Still waiting to be impressed by the front office.....
  13. Mike Sixel
    Aren't they more likely to be in it, if he pitches in July? If not, does it matter they saved him?
  14. Mike Sixel
    He was much higher rated by fangraphs. Much.

    The Veducci effect is bunk. Awful bunk, which has been shown to be bunk when you actually look at data. Seriously, bunk.
  16. Mike Sixel
    This. The 40 man can't be a restraint to moving guys up if the front office refuses to promote guys in the 40 man because they aren't good enough. I hate this move. So many teams are getting younger, this team just keeps getting older. Leadership? Mentor? This team is filled with veterans.

    I've been typing that first sentence since they spent real money on a DH/1B only prospect. On the other hand....all Wade does is get on base. Still can't figure out how he was in AA again this year. As for Gordon, he's 22 and hasn't been in AAA all that long....maybe should have started in AAA this year, maybe not. Still not even the slightest worried about him.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Hope is ok for fans, but I hope the front office is more realistic and has a good plan.

    Fangraphs has Lanarch 4th for hte Twins, as I expected: https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/the-updated-top-131-prospect-rankings/
  20. Mike Sixel
    Maybe Stewart throws stuff that is hard to square? Maybe? I still hold out some hope for him. Jay is the one I'm really confused on......he can't get out AA hitters, and lots and lots of people said he could maybe be in the bullpen day 1....We always knew Stewart would need time....
  21. Mike Sixel
    Boston and New York are younger on offense, why are they winning so many games? Do you have any evidence that young teams don't win as many 1 run games? It isn't really that young of a team. There are zero rookies in the projected starting lineup. There are zero second year players in the projected starting lineup.
  22. Mike Sixel
    They just needed more outfielders.....
  23. Mike Sixel
    Or just let him go. He's not a difference maker at all.
  24. Mike Sixel
    So, trade prospects for another outfielder, but not a catcher? That seems like an odd use of resources to me.
  25. Mike Sixel
    He is putting up four to five war.... And if his backup puts up one, that's not good? That's not worth dealing for?
