    Berrios. And, why can't you do this and sign free agents?
  2. Mike Sixel
    Quite a few posters here. Saying that signing these free agents is a bad idea, and we should trust the FO to develop these guys.
  3. Mike Sixel
    Pretty sure his point was that those saying Bumgarner isn't good begs the question why the Twins were pursuing him then....
  4. Mike Sixel
    Putting aside if they were projected aces or not.... They were projected major league regulars.... Which is helping the Twins this year? To me, this is a cautionary tale for those that are confident that the Twins can stand still on pitching this year, or even next.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Still some doubt about Lewis at short.... Jeffers and Duran up. Gordon waaaaaaaaay down. Lanarch ahead of Kiriloff for now.

    I sort of worked with the CEO of Anthem, and reported to one of her CIOs. She's a great leader, who is remaking Anthem in UHGs image. I own too much healthcare stock..... But some of you may not.....

    I agree, Cleveland is not giving up on this year. I bet they sign two mid level free agents in the next two weeks.

    Why? They couldn't compete just year, so they traded a guy, got prospects, then replaced him. If Bumgarner it's good at all, they pay less, get prospects....
  10. Mike Sixel
    That leaves one guy that anyone here would have said is impact before the off season started. At least in free agency. I predicted Ryu earlier, and continue to hope.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Salary dump, with great upside and low likelihood of it working. Still a good trade for Texas. If it doesn't work, they probably lost nothing that they can't replace. If it does work, bargain.
  12. Mike Sixel
    I have, over and over, and you've said no to each. Hence, what would you do?
  13. Mike Sixel
    There's nothing "willy nilly", and insulting me isn't helpful. I've been reading about Gore since before he was drafted, and since. Nothing desperate about trading for the number 1 pitching prospect in the game....nothing at all. How do we know that keeping Lewis isn't the mistake? Again, what is your alternative? You say no to pretty much every idea, what is your idea.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Looks like TX is serious! Corey Kluber.....
  15. Mike Sixel
    I have no idea if they made a mistake or not, but I'd trade Lewis for Gore without hesitation.
  16. Mike Sixel
    I'll ask again, what should they do this off season?
  17. Mike Sixel
    No way. If you are giving up that much capital, get a starter.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Why wo Odorrizi sign an extension? He just bet on himself.
  19. Mike Sixel
    I agree. If you won't sign the best free agents, you need to draft pitchers early. This team doesn't do that. They also have yet to trade for a big time pitcher. So, what should they do this year, with this team?
  20. Mike Sixel
    They are thirty million under, and lose Cruz, Odorrizi, and likely Rosario next year. If they added twenty or twenty five million, who couldn't they sign to an extension? They aren't signing Garver, he's a few years away and a catcher. That leaves Sano, Berrios and Buxton to sign in the next three years.....
  21. Mike Sixel
    Not until during the season, right? So if he won't waive it before the season, he's not an option to fill the hole to start the year. Or did I read that wrong?
  22. Mike Sixel
    Rumor (for what that's worth) is that Yu will not waive his no trade clause.
  23. Mike Sixel
    I probably went low there, yes........So, he'd be the largest FA contract in Twins' history if you and the poster above are correct. What are the odds of that?
  24. Mike Sixel
    low? I bet he gets north of $15MM per year. For 2-3 years. that would be in the top five of the largest FA deal in Twins' history....IIRC
  25. Mike Sixel
    Let's hope you are right!
