    If they don't want to sign here....what would it take?
  2. Mike Sixel
    I rip this team a lot for not spending....but I'm not sure who they could/should have signed this off season other than one good SP, rather than two cheap ones. But, so far, Happ has been quite good..... They actually spent a lot of money on Colome.... There is not one non-pitcing position where, given this roster and the minors, that you'd bring in a player other than SS, which they did. That leaves the bullpen and SP.....They weren't signing Bauer. Not sure who else you'd sign after signing Happ. As for the bullpen....which expensive RP was a realistic sign? Maybe they are leaving space to sign Buxton and/or Berrios? But, really, there weren't a lot of players that were realistic at all, that they have space for. I guess you could argue C, but I doubt any FO gives up on Garver after last year's short season, not with Jeffers in the minors.

    It's amazing to me there aren't 32 humans that can be a successful NFL kicker given the population of the world.....

    I would 100% want a top SP and position player to start, but man, the starting pitching prospect list is heavily weighted to teams that don't have big budgets / aren't great right now. The other option is multiple SP prospects at the 45 and above range, but there are almost no systems with that profile. That said, if you can get Mackenzie Gore and two players rated 45 or higher, you consider it. My preference is that they re-sign him.....but if he says he isn't doing that, I don't know how you don't trade him.
  5. Mike Sixel
    I agree, this team is not a contender. Maybe they can be if they promote some minor league pitchers, maybe.
  6. Mike Sixel
    I really don't understand these thoughts on Sano all over this board. Look at his career, and ask if you want to do anything other than start him at first.
  7. Mike Sixel
    This is the bullpen he's been given. People begged for Rodgers to be the closer....
  8. Mike Sixel
    Also clearly the manager's fault....
  9. Mike Sixel
    This is the bullpen this FO built..... Stop blaming the manager. Or not, up to you.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Twitter says wrist soreness....And, as you recall, he's had wrist issues in the past....
  11. Mike Sixel
    If this is a manager's decision, then you can put me on the list of serious doubters at this point. There is zero reason Cave or Astudillo should ever start over AK, let alone both of them.
  12. Mike Sixel
    I'm guessing here....but I'd bet my life savings they work together on these things. And, Dobnak was signed to a long term deal, to probably be a starter someday, but clearly not right out of the gate this year. Otherwise they would not have signed Shoemaker. It's been a month.....teams don't generally blow up their offseason plans in less than a month.
  13. Mike Sixel
    You think the FO signed Shoemaker not to be a starter? You think Rocco made this decision on his own? No way. The FO signed him to be a starter. 100%.
  14. Mike Sixel
    If Davis is healthy, and Dozier starts, fire the whole coaching staff.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Apparently the Vikings tried to trade up for Fields before the Bears did....interesting....
  16. Mike Sixel
    IMO, no need to keep Cave on this roster (or Garlick, take your pick).....Put Sano at first, AK in left, and let them hit away.
  17. Mike Sixel
    According to the data, little exit velocity comes from the pitcher. You can find studies on line if you want.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Picking a returner in round 4? Uhhhh.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Replace the QB with a S or CB, and it might have been the best round 3 in history....
  20. Mike Sixel
    I love two OL.....not a fan of the QB and big ? on the LB...
  21. Mike Sixel
    Serious reach there....I guess they don't need any DL after all...
  22. Mike Sixel
    Then why take him? They aren't winning with any backup....go get starters.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Hate that pick. Almost no QB not taken in round 1 starts.....hate it.
  24. Mike Sixel
    May as well now.....two more thirds in a bad draft....
  25. Mike Sixel
    Was hoping the Vikes would trade up for Barmore...
