    Just in, Mike Trout is amazing. https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2018-positional-power-rankings-center-field/
  2. Mike Sixel
    Congrats!
  3. Mike Sixel
    There are other options. If not, the team is in trouble.
  4. Mike Sixel
    I dismiss the likelihood, given how Kinley performed in AA last year, true. Not impossible, not likely.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Buesnitz has options....that's part of his appeal to me. The team has set themselves up with very little flexibility in the pitching staff, the opposite of the Dodgers, for example.
  6. Mike Sixel
    I did and didn't. I have some money in my IRA....so I've been "day trading" with it this week. Just buying AMZN when it drops, and then selling it. Worked today, not quite as well as earlier in the week. Oh, but the rest? crying emoji

    League median....a RH OF would have made a ton of sense this off season. https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2018-positional-power-rankings-right-field/ Much more sense than Tyler Kinney, for example.
  8. Mike Sixel
    I'd rather someone with options be in that role. I'd rather someone that wasn't bad in AA had that role.
  9. Mike Sixel
    That is not an argument I've made, is it?
  10. Mike Sixel
    I think we are likely to disagree on the importance of every single person on the roster being useful.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Because they are trying to win this year, not audition RPs. I get the logic, I don't agree with it.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Because one was good in teh majors last year and one was mediocre in teh minors last year, and that's more indicative of future success than a few innings in spring training.

    One of hte two AL East teams probably will win one of the WC, barring major injuries/surprises. I'd rank the contendors: MN (this is overly optimistic compared to most models) LAA (Ohtani is 23, adjusting to a new country, and coming off an injury. He'll get better) If the Twins had a 23 yo up, with that stuff, people would be excited. TOR/TEX White Sox (the most highly variable team this year imo) BAL TB (they'd be in first if not for the injuries) SEA

    I agree, making the decision to not keep Busenitz up more puzzling to me. Kinley does not have enough upside, compared to how easy it is to find RP on the market, or convert starters, to waste a 25 man spot on him for the year. And if he's only used in wasted games, they'll never really know if he is. There are only 25 spots....a playoff contendor should not be wasting one, or two, if you count Hughes....
  16. Mike Sixel
    I did greatly enjoy this reply, btw.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Not sure I understand what Buesnitz would have had to do last year to show he's better than Kinley, who put up worse numbers in the miinors than Alan didin the majors.....Are they trying to win this year, or not?
  18. Mike Sixel
    They still get half of Polanco, and Escobar is not as bad as people here seem to think. Really, those two look about even on projections....but as the article says, Polanco you can dream on. Esco is what he is.
  19. Mike Sixel
    About what you'd expect, I think.... https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2018-positional-power-rankings-shortstop/
  20. Mike Sixel
    Number two in all of baseball. Implying Dozier will get paid, imo. https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2018-positional-power-rankings-second-base/
  21. Mike Sixel
    Not worried. He'll be better this year. He's young. And while not all young players get better, Kepler and his background, indicate he will.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Lower than I'd hoped....is Sano really only going to be around top 10? https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2018-positional-power-rankings-third-base/
  23. Mike Sixel
    Projections.
  24. Mike Sixel
    https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2018-positional-power-rankings-first-base/ Joe below median, and 25+% below the top ten players in runs created.
