    trading a low level prospect for 1/2 a year of a player is not a major trade.
  2. Mike Sixel
    if they think he's going on the DL, don't trade for him at all.
  3. Mike Sixel
    I'd guess money is the primary reason one place is a destination or not.
  4. Mike Sixel
    well, that seems silly. Either they think he's going to help, and should pay for that help, or they don't. We are talking less than half a year, and a couple million dollars.....

    Given that I've wanted Garver here for months, this would bum me out. I think it's fair. I won't love it. I am not a true believer this year, and I am not a fan of trading 1 prospect for 1 move. I hate this half way stuff. If that is the only move, I'll hate it. If it is one of 2-4 moves, I might like it more.

    please tell me they aren't being cheap. I mean, if they think he can help, take on the money. It's not tens of millions here.....

    At some point, they need to get some hitters. But then, you know way more about this than me. I'm just a Twins' fan talking about the Braves..... As for the draft, I'd think we spent months talking about the Twins not worrying about anything other than best available plus gaming the system. I assume that's true for the Braves in round 1, so I'm not sure that is the same thing.
  8. Mike Sixel
    then I misunderstood again! I thought you meant that if a team leaks, just stop talking at that point out of some principle. But, if the price they want is fair, would you still do it?
  9. Mike Sixel
    Congrats! Keep keepin' it fresh!
  10. Mike Sixel
    why? Why give up on a negotiation if you want the player over that? We see leaks every day, it's part of the game.
  11. Mike Sixel
    if so, they should shut down right now. I hope not.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Are we sure ATL didn't leak first? I would.....
  13. Mike Sixel
    Agreed.
  14. Mike Sixel
    I'm guessing Wade or Granite, personally. It fits their needs, I think. Garver is also likely. I think they want someone close to the majors, given where they are in the process, and I don't think they want more pitchers.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Will this reach Dozier traded thread length, all for the same outcome? I'm going: no maybe
  16. Mike Sixel
    that sure would make it cheap on teh Twins' side! I like it.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Agreed. And I'm sure some of the board will cringe at the name, since that's the range of highly variable outcomes and fan favorites.
  18. Mike Sixel
    I'd add Thorpe and Stewart to that list. Though I don't know how Stewart does it, but his last 6 starts have worked, strikeouts be danged.
  19. Mike Sixel
    where is "meh" at in the list? I've never quite figured that out.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Yes they are. But its a a lot harder to acquire good, long term, assets.
  21. Mike Sixel
    Indeed I did. Tiresome wasn't it?
  22. Mike Sixel
    A hitter. Need to make sure they have 15-20 pitchers on teh roster.
  23. Mike Sixel
    So many comments about posters and their feeling. So tiresome. So very tiresome. Shoring up the back or middle of the rotation is a good idea, depending on the cost of course. Did I mention how tiresome it is that people have to constantly comment on posters and their feelings, rather than what is happening? We have a whole thread for that.
  24. Mike Sixel
    One of our members pointed out that if you remove both ends (slaughterer, and slaughterie), they still have a huge issue with run differential. You can't just ignore one of the tails.
  25. Mike Sixel
    you and I agree on that, I don't have any idea what their plan is!
