    Because they have other options in the minors that might be, and no way Jax is. If they want to rely on anyone at the start of next year, they need multiple starts this year. Put Jax in the bullpen, and leave him there. See what he can do with a different approach. He might have a shot there.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Good for him!
  3. Mike Sixel
    I can't decide if this is concerning, or something else. But I agree, call him up and have him do what he wants. That would be a good experiment for the front office to learn about their processes. It could also just be noise.... But still.....

    I can't believe people think Jax can be a starter. I also don't think ober or dobnak are.... At least I'd hope they have three or four better options.....

    This ignores, as stated above, that the Twins used that money to resign players. And that Santana had no interest in being in Minnesota. If they can get great prospects back, I'm ok if the deal Berrios. He wants at least twenty million per year. And has been clear he will test free agency.

    Who? Who can play d and hit? Who can backup center in a season that isn't lost? No one in this system. Not next year.

    Kepler is outhitting the average MLB player this year. Is he great? No. But he's not the issue everyone seems to think.

    The literally won the division two years in a row..... They took an awful pitching staff, and had it in the top ten the last two years.
  9. Mike Sixel
    This will never happen: Berrios and Rortverdt One of their top 3 starters, one of their top 2 catchers, a pitcher and a SS in the 40 range.

    And Tampa? Still a ton of talent..... https://www.fangraphs.com/prospects/the-board/2021-in-season-prospect-list/summary?sort=-1,1&team=tbr

    Crazy good options in Toronto: https://www.fangraphs.com/prospects/the-board/2021-in-season-prospect-list/summary?sort=-1,1&team=tor
  12. Mike Sixel
    Plus they keep drafting bat first OFers......No idea how they expect to win anything meaningful that way. No idea.
  13. Mike Sixel
    If they hadn't sucked, the Twins might not be aggressive sellers....probably needed more than those two to be good, but still.....
  14. Mike Sixel
    No idea how the Red Sox could compete against those others with their prospects list. No idea.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Yankees trying to corner the market on anti vaxxers.....
  16. Mike Sixel
    Ya, that wasn't my most clear post..... The only guy that has to get moved is Pineda. I'd also like Berrios moved, as it seems clear he's not signing here. Other than that? Ineffective or injured guys are the issue right now......
  17. Mike Sixel
    Isn't a bit early for that?
  18. Mike Sixel
    If Pineda is on the roster, they blew it. That's minimum...... Feel free to disagree.
  19. Mike Sixel
    If the FO blows this deadline, I'm going to be very unimpressed.
  20. Mike Sixel
    You could be right....and you have good facts. So far this year, ZERO top 100 prospects have moved (likely changing with Sherzer and Berrios....but I think most here will be disappointed, and wrong to be so, about the return).
  21. Mike Sixel
    Ryan Pepiot and Andy Pages and a 40 value guy for Berrios......Pages bats R and is only 20ish in A ball. I'd prefer a SS, but Pages looks legit and they Twins could use a righty OF who can also actually field.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Ryan Pepiot is my target in that pitching group.....
  23. Mike Sixel
    How about a $15MM one to a multi-year deal, so he's here and ready to help in 2023, if you don't believe in 2022? You don't have to wait until THE YEAR to sign someone...... I think this offense can compete. They need a SS and a heathy Buxton. Then they need the bullpen not to be awful......
  24. Mike Sixel
    You aren't getting Gray, IMO. Has any top prospect been dealt in a few years? Think guys in the 45 range....maybe one of the 50s. https://www.fangraphs.com/prospects/the-board/2021-in-season-prospect-list/summary?sort=-1,1&team=lad
  25. Mike Sixel
    Also, not in love with the Phillies prospects......they'd have to include 2 of their top 5 for me to even think about it.
