    Clevinger isn't a twin. What minor league pitcher the twins developed has turned into an above average starter? Drafted or traded for since this FO took over? Until that happens more than once, it is hard to say they are good at it.....
  2. Mike Sixel
    Which Twins drafted pitcher in the last 5 years has turned into an above average starter? Because that's what develop means to me......not trading for guys. And yes, I'd rather have Gore than Lewis.

    I believe I was saying what Brock's point was, not mine......I agree, winning is the most important thing, but I also think it isn't hte ONLY thing....YMMV, of course, I have no horse in this race.
  4. Mike Sixel
    I can't find one analyst that agrees with this stance.
  5. Mike Sixel
    I think Brock's point is....they do this all the time. Fans identify with players, not just jerseys, and that is impossible with the Rays.

    Boston and the Cubs aren't cutting costs because they don't have enough revenue......MLB teams appear to be owned by owners the least interested in winning of all the sports. (i know you know this, just replying that money isn't really the issue here) Money isn't an issue for most teams, really.....the complete lack of caring if you win, and maximizing profit is the issue (it's an issue if you care about there being better teams, not if you care about the owners making more money, which some here do).
  7. Mike Sixel
    does the capitalist in you believe in teh draft and salary controls and team control of players even if they aren't under contract?
  8. Mike Sixel
    Not according to the owners. The cubs just don't have any money.....

    They still have six of their seven top prospects, all of whom will likely be in the top 100....
  11. Mike Sixel
    They did under McPhail, when they went out and acquired FAs and veterans......
  12. Mike Sixel
    I thought the plan was to draft hitting, and trade for pitching.......are you suggesting that doesn't always work?
  13. Mike Sixel
    Sitting on prospects has never gotten this team over the top.....nor has not signing free agents.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Record revenue the last 5 years before this, while payroll actually dropped last year......so, it's pretty easy to see if the teams are spending more or less on players. Oh, and teams in all sports keep selling for record amounts, including the Mets just in the last month or so.....and how many analytics people would need to be hired to equal on real FA at 5-10 million? Lots and lots.......Also, more teams are building businesses and parking lots and other things THAT LITERALLY only exist as extensions to the team, and that revenue doesn't count in MLB revenue......
  15. Mike Sixel
    Dreamer. The excuses are long, and unending.
  16. Mike Sixel
    I mean, if it weren't for a couple terrible passes by Brees, they score sixty?
  17. Mike Sixel
    Worst defense I've ever seen in that quarter. Like the 80s gophers vs Nebraska.....
  18. Mike Sixel
    Isn't that any team? An elite qb and good defense? They are so far from there it isn't even viewable.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Re-signing Cousins, Rudolph, Cook, and trading a 2nd round pick for a DE after losing your best player......that sound like awful GMing to me......and yes, the coaching staff has a 1950s philosophy on offense tha has to go.
  20. Mike Sixel
    I can't believe how wrong I was about Justin Herbert .....
  21. Mike Sixel
    I didn't see the game, but 33 points to the bears? How?
  22. Mike Sixel
    He's missed more in the last 2 games than the best miss in a year..... that's not just "part of the game".
  23. Mike Sixel
    That OL is going to get cousins killed..... and Bailey deserves to be cut.
  24. Mike Sixel
    that's how I feel about not buying and holding Tesla......meh. I've doubled my money that I play with, so I can't complain too much.....but 6x would be better.
  25. Mike Sixel
    adrian peterson couldn't carry the team to a championship, or even the SB.....Dalvin Cook will? No chance.
