    I really don't think these GM games of smoke screens and other things actually matter.....but I could be wrong.
  2. Mike Sixel
    They dismantled the bullpen at the break, and had a higher winning percentage after that....IIRC.
  3. Mike Sixel
    I disagree. They are contenders next year....they won 84 games last year. Add Dozier, add a SP from someplace....that definitely gives them a legit shot at 90 wins, imo.

    You do know Twitter is blocked for a decent number of people.....for those that are, this is a Brewers' trade, not Twins.....
  5. Mike Sixel
    Except....the post he was replying to was "Dozier wouldn't be an upgrade"....not the cost of Dozier....
  6. Mike Sixel
    Oh.. Mine is up overall... Just not that day. Mostly tech.... And my employer, which is waaaaaay up
  7. Mike Sixel
    who comes up?
  8. Mike Sixel
    Fine, but you need 7 starters...you jettison Gibson and/or Santiago, then what? And, it only gets worse if you deal ESan...... These decisions don't happen in a vacuum.
  9. Mike Sixel
    I'd probably tender them all, but I understand why some would not tender Kintzler or Santiago. That said, if you think you are trading ESan....you tender Santiago for sure, imo. I think Kintzler is replaceable from the minors....and I'd roll those dice this year. Giving up on Gibson, imo, is silly. He has talent. Give Allen 1 more year to fix him. It's not like there are tons of other options.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Really well written!
  11. Mike Sixel
    Just to be clear......Torii has been very clear in his statements about gays and "black" Latins.....this isn't something people are making up. For some people, that's an issue. For others, it isn't. As for your ad hominen attack...well, sorry you feel that way.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Welcome to the site! I would do this. I'd probably ask for another low level minor leaguer, in exchange for taking on the Puig salary.
  13. Mike Sixel
    great post. Let's hope Grossman never plays in the OF again! Heck, I'd rather have him as the DH than Napoli, in a sever PINCH he could play OF for an inning or three.
  14. Mike Sixel
    so, um, don't post opinions on moves for 3 more months?
  15. Mike Sixel
    Well, it is a thread about the stock market, and my comment was about how ST trading reacted to the good news.....I uh, think that makes sense to comment on. YMMV, of course. I'm not suggesting anything, other than ST traders didn't find the news all that compelling.
  16. Mike Sixel
    The market is flat....so, not sure ST investors agree....is that a controversial post somehow?
  17. Mike Sixel
    All my stocks but 1 is down....
  18. Mike Sixel
    any idea what it is yet?
  19. Mike Sixel
    apparently ST traders don't agree!
  20. Mike Sixel
    You aren't the first to do it, and won't be the last......I just don't buy it. There have been people every generation that made that whole group be questioned by their parents and older people......we've never had the internet before to say it over and over (and to see such obvious examples). I could have said it nicer myself. Have a great day!
  21. Mike Sixel
    is this a real post?
  22. Mike Sixel
    Must feel this pretty strongly to post it twice well, had they kept Plouffe and not signed a catcher, how would you feel about the start? Me? I rather like these two moves. Given that, I guess I feel COMPELLED to say, strong start. YMMV, of course.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Well, you need 2 catchers for one thing. Also, a strong (if he is) defensive catcher helps your young pitchers out a lot. I don't see this as WIN NOW, but as....we need a catcher, we want a defensive catcher to help our young pitchers....here is one that isn't $100MM. I don't see this as indicating anything about Dozier or Santana at all. That's just a guess, and I don't do guesses much anymore about other people's motivations.
  24. Mike Sixel
    dude, nothing else has happened this offseason, hardly, and there aren't any FAs out there. What, exactly, do people expect at this point? They cut Plouffe, and they signed the top player at a position of need......
  25. Mike Sixel
    1 WAR costs $8 MM a year.....that's what they paid. (and that WAR does not currently take into account any framing advantage he brings over Suzuki). But, I agree, there are reasons to be concerned about Castro. I'd rather they roll the die and try to be good, than to sit back and do nothing though.
