    some good/great/awesome names there.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Gordon. If they draft a guy that isn't better than him, sigh. But, others have said on other threads that those two might be behind Gordon, hence my question.
  3. Mike Sixel
    I asked: If the Twins take McKay or Lewis, will they be the top prospect in MN?
  4. Mike Sixel
    hmmmm.....a few names stick out bad and good there, for me. And one super depressing one.

    workload data on college pitchers! http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/the-workloads-of-2017s-top-draft-prospects/

    game threads are about half or less on topic, most of the time. Though, when they are playing well, there is more actual baseball talk....other threads mostly stay on topic, btw.
  7. Mike Sixel
    welcome to the site!
  8. Mike Sixel
    I was unaware such a person existed.
  9. Mike Sixel
    and they trade a lot more successfully....
  10. Mike Sixel
    We agree on that last part for sure. Keeping Santana alone doesn't fix the team.
  11. Mike Sixel
    For the Twins....not overall ranking: 1. Wright 2. Gore/Greene . . . 4. McKay . 5. Lewis
  12. Mike Sixel
    I wouldn't take him until round 3 or later, personally.
  13. Mike Sixel
    It's possible that athletes are better, and that the game has changed....
  14. Mike Sixel
    so they are passing on the top upside pitchers. Great.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Never.
  16. Mike Sixel
    And yet, on the roster he is.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Except the rules are different, and seven teams pick a second time before the Twins....
  18. Mike Sixel
    Number 1. If they aren't number 1, it was a bad draft. the 1:1 pick usually is in the top 25-40 overall in MiLB the day they are picked.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Awful idea to trade a starting SS/2B for the next 7 years for a 1-2 year rental.
  20. Mike Sixel
    so where do you get your 2nd or 3rd pitcher for next year, then?
  21. Mike Sixel
    But that's my point. If 2-3 of those guys are good, and Santana is only good for 1 more year, do you really need Santana at that point? And, if none of them are good next year, then it won't matter if you have Santana or not at that point, imo.
  22. Mike Sixel
    that's a reasonable stance, and it is hard to argue against it. I just don't love the options this year or next, unless Gonsalves and another SP are good, in which case you don't need Santana as much, and Dozier is maybe redundant.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Because I don't think they are good enough next year, unless they can get help from AA. If they can get help from AA, then getting a SP NEXT YEAR for Santana isn't that important anyway, imo. And, Santana won't be good forever, probably. I'd guess he has maybe 1 good year left. After that? HUGE step back for this team, unless the guys they have and trade for are good in 19 and beyond.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Of those 8, some won't really be available, assuming you counted Sale, for example.... but, they'll have to outbid some teams for sure. I just don't see a difference maker there, that will actually be available and signed by this team.
  25. Mike Sixel
    I've never (I don't think) insisted they get someone that would be ready next year, unlike others.
