    If they open up the offense, it can be great.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Please fire Zimmer. If the Lions coach was good at all......
  3. Mike Sixel
    Lions coach.... Punting.... So stupid.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Bad coaching?
  5. Mike Sixel
    And instead of running out the clock.... Cincy goes for it, and scores in one play..... Their coach gets it.
  6. Mike Sixel
    A bad team should almost never punt. Such bad coaching in the NFL.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Great example. Stupid punt. It's just a long turnover.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Have the Packers game here. The Bengals just went for it on fourth and three from the GB 45, give or take... Resulting in a touchdown drive. Zimmer would have punted.

    What do you base this belief on? Donaldson signing here? Pineda? Happ? Shoemaker? Colome? Others? We literally have no idea. I'm not making anyone the bad guy. I endorse players finally getting to choose where, and for whom, they work. Others are making the front office bad guys.....I think this is just big business and how capitalism works.
  10. Mike Sixel
    You spelled when wrong.....
  11. Mike Sixel
    You know for a fact he didn't say he wanted to test free agency, or even leave? Or, maybe they decided multiple years of what they got was more valuable? That's fairly likely why they did it. This year was lost. So, what is worth more, one year of Berrios next year, or six of the guys they got? As for spending, these last two years they've spent the most they ever have. They signed Donaldson to a huge deal. I'm just not sure we agree on your facts being facts and not opinions.
  12. Mike Sixel
    They aren't making major roster decisions only for opening day, imo.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Because Martin will be.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Stop being reasonable. This is the internet!
  15. Mike Sixel
    It's almost like the previous two sessions didn't happen the way some people talk.
  16. Mike Sixel
    All fair. As for Kepler,I think fans greatly underestimate how hard it is to direct a batted ball.....
  17. Mike Sixel
    Not sure I agree with this take. I think it means the minors have great prospects that need protection, and that they are going to sign or trade for better players. If anything, the previous regime protected mediocre players too much and refused to sign legit free agents or trade prospects for them.
  18. Mike Sixel
    I see a huge blowout win for the Vikings, and some fans will think that means they are good .........
  19. Mike Sixel
    I doubt he let it slide. I'm just not sure what he could have done to help him be better.
  20. Mike Sixel
    I don't trade Garver unless I'm punting next year, of someone gives me an insane deal. You win by having players be A LOT better than other team's players (position by position)....and Garver is one of the best hitting catchers/1B/DHs in the game. I'm ok with dealing any of the others you mention, because I believe in the next wave of corner fielders. (not counting Buxton, who you didn't really mention).
  21. Mike Sixel
    All fair. If you want the "best" team to have the best odds, the Dodgers should not be punished for playing in the same division as the Giants. That's where I come from. The won 106 games, while having to play the Giants a lot......much harder than what Atlanta faced. It is really about what you want out of the second season. Given the stupid emphasis on playoffs, I want the better teams to get more rewards/benefits. But, there is no right answer here. It is just entertainment afterall.
  22. Mike Sixel
    It is very competitive. It isn't great, but it would have them in the conversation in July to be over .500.
  23. Mike Sixel
    The Padres collapse was about injuries and WTF? Not bad decisions. Also, playing in the hardest division in baseball. But mostly WTF? I'm not arguing the Twins blow things up, but they can't also be afraid to trade some prospects sometimes. Also, pretty sure you think they should sign one FA starting pitcher this year. So, I'm not really sure what you arguing, other than the extremes. Which most fans aren't asking for, imo.
  24. Mike Sixel
    How do you think Baldelli ruined Simmons? What do you think he did that it is his fault? I'm just curious, because I'd guess this is 100% on the player.....I'm not arguing they played poorly on D (though, given Larnach, Rooker, Astudillo, Sano and Simmons, not sure what we'd expect).....I'm asking why you think Simmons' play is on the manager.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Not sure why we only look at BA these days.....he was top 15 in home runs among all catchers. .198 is not good, but the league isn't what it used to be for BA. He was rookie eligible, and was 34th among all catchers in fWAR. NOT GREAT, but not nearly as bad as people make him out to be. He's no Garver, though, and there is no way I trade Garver unless I'm blowing up the team.
