    I am not a fan who roots for efficiency. I want wins. I can't imagine they will be close to this budget next year, with Mauer, Dozier, Lynn, Santana all coming off the books. Probably others too. So, not sure how your calculation matters, unless they spend the money. Now, if this catcher turns out.... Good trade. But they lose a top pick, and the money that goes with it.

    How is it better?
  3. Mike Sixel
    Not a fan, at all. They just gave up a high pick for nothing. Wow. Money talks, I guess.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Plus, they need to find out if he can get better..... And they aren't good this year, so may as well be now.

    In college it was gyro and fries, but that could have been because they were free.... Pizza or gyro or tacos
  6. Mike Sixel
    That was the joke....
  7. Mike Sixel
    So, with Sano at first.... How long until we see Gordon? Maybe he should be playing third in NY?
  8. Mike Sixel
    This is why some of us said that they should not platoon Max...

    I look forward to the day Wade is the fourth OF on this roster. Or whomever he is traded for.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Only eight here....
  11. Mike Sixel
    Relief pitcher risk is the answer I got when I asked. Great stuff, but risk he needed another pitch.
  12. Mike Sixel
    My real answer to the pet question....I prefer other people have pets.

    Way too early to use framing stats.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Swihart hasn't hit for a few years, and they don't trust him to catch. I wouldn't kill them for the move, but it would be high risk.

    This is the weekend all the wineries in Oregon can be open, even if they don't normally have a tasting room. It is crowded, but worth it. We'll be out one, two, maybe three days.
  16. Mike Sixel
    When would he ever be more on this roster? I'd rather he play about half the time, giving every OF a rest, or letting one of them DH occasionally. It's not like there is a good DH option? DH whichever of Kepler or Rosario you want to rest, and play Wade at a corner that day. I like that much more than Grossman.

    Dogs would be much more likely to post positive thoughts in game threads, just sayin....
  18. Mike Sixel
    They should know by then who they aren't protecting in the off season. I doubt it is an issue.
  19. Mike Sixel
    That's not how the real world works unless you believe we also know what we have in Buxton now....since his minor league numbers would indicate he'd hit by now.... It's not like FO and managers are always right, either.
  20. Mike Sixel
    People are judging Garver's defense in less than a year of playing at this level..... Plus what they've heard about his defense in the minors. I suggest patience, mostly because he's their best bet for catching for a few years. He should be playing more, now.
  21. Mike Sixel
    Besides age and defense and baserunning?
  22. Mike Sixel
    Someone should ask the MoY..... Because it makes no sense
  23. Mike Sixel
    Of course, Sano can play defense, which Carter can't, at all. Sano is also much younger. Could he go that way? Sure. Will he? I don't think so.

    I just don't think we see Gordon w/o a Sano set back, or a trade of one of their current players....not until next year is my guess. I wish he was up when Sano went down, but didn't happen. Not with Polanco coming back in a month or two or whatever the timing is. Wade, imo, should have come up when Buxton was out, or even Cave. I don't really think of Granite as a "prospect", but he can play D and run, and he should be on someone's roster as a 4th/5th OF, imo. Between those three, they are set at 4th/5th OF for some time, I think. The handedness doesn't matter a ton to me, but I understand why others would disagree. I think Gonsalves is up at some point this year, when something happens to 2-3 SPs during the year. IF they are worried about Romero's innings, it might make sense to have Stephen come up, and to rest Romero for a few starts. Maybe, not sure. That might be Slegers' role, or Mejia (is he a prospect still, I think you are all forgetting him if he is)? I don't see anyone else that is likely to do much, though I'm sure I'm forgetting a RP, this year....
