    I actually agree with you, a few small moves works for me. But, if this is the only real move, then, imo, it was a waste. They need a DH and 2 RPs. Either from inside the org, or out.
  2. Mike Sixel
    would you deal Gordon + for Gray or some other cost controlled pitcher (not Archer, Archer isn't being traded).
  3. Mike Sixel
    Not sure why you are trying, good sir. IME, fans don't much care about odds and probabilities.

    He wasn't arguing. He tweeted that the Twins should not be buyers. Then he tweeted that this kind of buying makes sense. He tweeted about a lot of teams and what they should do, that's his job. Then when they did something, he followed up. And, lots of people have suggested the Twins trade real prospects for Gray, for example. Lots of people. Especially here and on FG chats and other places.

    I'm not sure he thought they'd do anything major, neither of us thought they would.....but I'd guess he would be opposed to trading top prospects for 1 player. He's not a believer in them being 1 player away this year.

    FWIW, Dave Cameron (one of the FG guys), tweeted that while he was in theory opposed to the Twins buying, trading a low level guy for an average pitcher is a good deal (paraphrasing here).
  7. Mike Sixel
    I had the same thought!
  8. Mike Sixel
    And when you pinch hit for the pitchers, who is doing that with this bench?
  9. Mike Sixel
    I don't care about money at this level at all. To me, one meh move is s bad idea. I hope there are more moves coming. Imo, Garver should be on the roster, especially in NL parks. Oh well.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Garver should be up before the NL games start. He can hit, and has positional flexibility. Perfect guy for NL rules. Of course, they are calling up another RP instead.
  11. Mike Sixel
    KLAW calls it a win win, fwiw
  12. Mike Sixel
    If it is the only move, not a fan. The team needs more work than one trade provides. If one in a series, cool.
  13. Mike Sixel
    So, 0 fer 2 on trades, at least. Let me know when they actually do something that makes the team better.
  14. Mike Sixel
    what does an average pitcher cost? And, if you are upgrading from colon or Turley or Wilk or ????....average is a huge upgrade.
  15. Mike Sixel
    I love this post. thank you.
  16. Mike Sixel
    In this thread, I pointed out options.... http://twinsdaily.com/topic/26829-starting-pitchers/
  17. Mike Sixel
    yes
  18. Mike Sixel
    I can understand that stance. I'm really on the fence, like I said. No more 1 move moves.....either really try, or don't really try. But don't give up part of the future JUST for Garcia. If you make one move, you better make 2-4 moves.
  19. Mike Sixel
    not over a couple million dollars. Prospect going back? sure/maybe. but a couple million dollars? What's the real risk here, if it is a 10-15th ranked prospect and a few million dollars, vs a 12-17th ranked prospect and couple million less? either they want him, and think he can help, or they don't think he can help.
  20. Mike Sixel
    trading a low level prospect for 1/2 a year of a player is not a major trade.
  21. Mike Sixel
    if they think he's going on the DL, don't trade for him at all.
  22. Mike Sixel
    I'd guess money is the primary reason one place is a destination or not.
  23. 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.....
  24. Mike Sixel
    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.
  25. Mike Sixel
    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.....
