    The words of an actual MLB pitcher: Brandon McCarthy @BMcCarthy32 There was barely a spring training. Nobody's fully built up. Starters were barely ready to start a real season. This isn't some new-age thing or whatever strawman you want to rail against. It sucks.

    Which previewed as showing, but isn't. sigh...

    This tweet is from a MLB pitcher..... https://twitter.com/BMcCarthy32/status/1514322719625531398?s=20&t=NF2bOcUUUhc8eDYsQd8xDg

    Because that's what plans are, in advance. And, who said anything about a season? As for your anti math and science and knowledge stance, we get it.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Just say no.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Because, and I'm being polite, people here don't seem to think things thru fully? Also, these aren't his decisions alone. 100% this is him and the FO working together. 100%.
  8. Mike Sixel
    I didn't say I agreed with the plan.....I said it shows he's not JUST thinking about today, as some people here are saying. Over and over and over and over. They have more RPs than they need, are you really worried they don't have enough RPs for today?
  9. Mike Sixel
    100% that they Twins were planning for short starts, especially in this weather.......planning to piggyback and / or use a lot of RPs.
  10. Mike Sixel
    See, I disagree...... People are complaining that Polanco is at SS, but at some point, CC will need a day off and who else is going to play SS? Same with Buxton and Celestino. All of those are long term moves (and losing AK this morning doesn't help). Also, they have more RPs than they could possibly need right now, so I don't see how that matters. The big issue was that they planned for Winder to give them 2-3 innings yesterday, but he couldn't.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Such a good show.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Again....probably not Baldelli's decision alone.....and they are planning for the long term. 100% Winder was always planned to piggyback Archer in game one. After 4 innings.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Ugh. For everyone that says picking hitters is safer from an injury perspective, here is anecdotal evidence otherwise. I feel bad for him. He showed what he can be before being hurt, and it just sucks being hurt. Good luck to him! Here is hoping he doesn't need more surgery, as surgery just sucks.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Really, I don't think people are thinking about the PLAN for Winder at all, as if it was random he pitched after Archer.......
  15. Mike Sixel
    Just a hunch.... A: Not Baldelli's decision. B: It was always the plan to piggyback him with Archer. IMO, that is highly likely and why he didn't pitch against Seattle.
  16. Mike Sixel
    I'm not at my computer, so it could be 35.... I'll check and update this. For batters, it is the 40FV. For pitchers, it is on the fence between 40 and 45.....so, 40+.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Fangraphs has not updated their ranking for the Padres yet, probably because one of their prospect guys is in the twins front office as of a month ago..
  18. Mike Sixel
    Pretty sure that's a 40 FV.... So, if you went to Fangraphs, you'd look for prospects with that FV.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Because they are human beings? I mean, I certainly don't anyone to get hurt.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Oh god. I just looked at my post count. I really need to stop coming here.
  21. Mike Sixel
    It never had.....not once had there been measurable snow in Portland (since 1940, when they started keeping records). Also, how had we not kept records before that?
  22. Mike Sixel
    Hail falling. When we first moved here, we were told it rarely hailed. Yikes, that's a lot of hail! Glad I'm not outside, ouch.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Good luck to Alcala. And, yikes, that's a big step down, imo.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Look, if you all keep liking my posts, I'm going to have to start being much dumber here....
  25. Mike Sixel
    Obvious solution is that sometimes a game will be delayed. Not all that often, actually. Though, I'd be good with a 148 game season, or something like that.
