    Congrats!
  2. Mike Sixel
    You put more credence in stuff by people here, than professional scouts?
  3. Mike Sixel
    Jose Berrios, maybe.....that's pretty recent.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Lots of HS kids pitch and play other positions. He just happens to be great at both. He's being considered for 1:1.....this isn't some random guy....
  5. Mike Sixel
    I never said there was....you asked if I'd trade him for 2 guys in AA that were similar to what the Twins have..... I'd also trade him for a top 50 or pitcher and a catcher and another prospect.
  6. Mike Sixel
    I would trade Dozier for 2 SPs in AA that are in the top 50-60 of prospects, yes. Not that you asked me....
  7. Mike Sixel
    Welcome to the site. Nice first post.
  8. Mike Sixel
    I imagine Google will kill it again, and I should probably be buying some.....
  9. Mike Sixel
    Can we have one thread that isn't BS vs TR, please? Pretty please with ice cream on top?
  10. Mike Sixel
    I guess my equivocating on NFLX turned out to be a bad idea! I have really been indecisive lately.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Nice. the stock I own the most of is up massively today......nice that I get to buy it cheaper than market also....
  12. Mike Sixel
    Well, I was responding to this, hence I was responding to the point I thought he was making that Granite shouldn't be up because he'd sit on the bench most of the time, which, assuming Rosario, Buxton, and Kepler are good, is true in 2 years or 3 years also....I don't know how to make that more clear, frankly. "letting Granite sit on the bench most days as a role player? .... and guys like Granite can play every day at AAA to at least start the year?" No place was I actually arguing he was ready.....I was arguing that it was not sufficient to say he shouldn't come up because he'd sit.

    KLAW said yesterday that any talk of Gordon moving off SS was ridiculous. Like his opinion or not, he's seen him play, and he's scouted thousands of players.
  14. Mike Sixel
    i hope they do more than 1 thing to make the team better.....do you not think they can do more than 1 thing?
  15. Mike Sixel
    Well, I've been all in on 1 year deals for pitchers for about 4 years now.....so I guess I should endorse signing at least 1.
  16. Mike Sixel
    I agree Tonkin was used out of his natural role. Misunderstood.
  17. Mike Sixel
    I think the aversion is to spending money on long term deals, when you are this far from competing, and when you have about 10 legit RP prospects in AA and AAA and maybe even A ball that could pitch here next year...
  18. Mike Sixel
    No, MN has those rankings....
  19. Mike Sixel
    How do you ever develop pitching, if you pass on it out of fear? Have you looked at success rates of SPs and position players, both?
  20. Mike Sixel
    CBS has them 49th in the nation......is that really that bad? It isn't great....but is that bad? The FPI has them 54th....
  21. Mike Sixel
    That wasn't what I was arguing....not even close. I was arguing that if your reason for not having him here is that he would sit and not play, that is probably the case the following year also. Heck, I even said that.....unless you trade Rosario, Granite is probably always a 4th OF. so, if your argument is don't call him up because he's a 4th OF, well, I don't think that argument can ever be overcome. Not sure your point.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Couldn't disagree more. Rigid roles is a thing of the past, imo. Also, no reason some of those last few names can't start in MN, imo. What more can they do in the minors at this point?
  23. Mike Sixel
    The whole "don't let Granite sit around and do nothing thing"....when would you ever call him up, then? Until you trade Rosario....Granite is a 4th OF for this team, right (or maybe 3rd with Rosario 4th). But, I'd rather have him here and contributing, than waiting for that perfect moment and getting him more reps.
  24. Mike Sixel
    I want more young players in the bullpen than mediocre, terrible, or even decent veterans. Seriously, just give the players in the minors a chance, there are plenty of options. If they are going to sign a RP, sign the best one you can afford, not a couple of mediocre ones.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Very, very, very different attitude. And, I was really talking about the game threads...
