    I assume you mean the front office strategy. This isn't decided by the catcher or pitchers.
  2. Mike Sixel
    So start Dobnak in game three? That's the same thing. I really don't know what you actually wanted different.
  3. Mike Sixel
    Every plan so far cuts spending by twenty to thirty million. And makes the pitching worse. That better not be the plan. won't surprise me though.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Well. Pineda, Gibson, and Perez were not options. And this front office passed on Corbin and Keuchel. You'll love next year's starters!
  5. Mike Sixel
    The twins had a six percent chance to win when Gibson came in...... It was the right move.
  6. Mike Sixel
    He said it's not the manager, it's the players.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Correct. 100% correct
  8. Mike Sixel
    He couldn't get anyone out. You really thought taking him out was wrong at the time?
  9. Mike Sixel
    I'm stuck at the home show.... Come by. Really, PNW fans should watch a game sometime. Not a Twins game, an actual playoff game.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Not even close. It's a good, not great, team. Especially without Pineda and a healthy Gibson. Btw.... This is what next year looks like for pitching....
  11. Mike Sixel
    At least I can ignore the game the rest of the home show....
  12. Mike Sixel
    I too would have brought out Berrios for one more inning. I don't know if it would have worked.....
  13. Mike Sixel
    And the new Picard trailer! I might have to pay for CBS in a few months....
  14. Mike Sixel
    By that logic, no Littel or Gaterol either. Clearly not Gibson, or Berrios, or Dobnak either there. You don't bring in Romo or Rogers there. You have five innings, how do you get five innings without using any of this pitchers yesterday? And then have anyone you are willing to pitch today, since you won't use rookies today either, if the game is close. Those guys are on the roster. What would you like Rocco to do? Not use four of the eight RPs at all?
  15. Mike Sixel
    Wow. The expanse preview looks great
  16. Mike Sixel
    4-3 Yankees in fourteen long innings....
  17. Mike Sixel
    Are people surprised Rosario and Cron setting like that? I'm not.
  18. Mike Sixel
    He was wrong that it wasn't important to the Twins, guess I didn't make that clear. I'm indifferent to the Gibson decision one way or the other. I don't do it, but I get the theory.
  19. Mike Sixel
    That means you have time to watch the last two or three innings..... Edit, I see chief was somehow up early today....
  20. Mike Sixel
    Most of the people in this thread are clearly saying that the best RPs should pitch yesterday, today, and the next game. I'm not convinced that will work. I'm also not sure who those two or three are, and how many outs they can get in a game.... It was the fifth inning. If they can't trust Littel, or stashak, who should come in in the fifth? Not Berrios, not Gibson, not Dobnak, not Romo, I'm guessing people would rip it being Gaterol if they don't think rookies should be in. And then, who comes in the sixth, if not any of those players? This is the roster. We can question the roster, but that's not on Rocco. He can only use the guys he has. They needed more than four innings of outs, what would everyone have done instead, inning by inning.....
  21. Mike Sixel
    It did. The poster you are quoting is just wrong.
  22. Mike Sixel
    I can't believe everyone calling for the best RPs to pitch every inning.... They've shown to be it's effective on back to back games. It's not realistic to ask them to do so. People wanted, what, more than four innings from their best RPs, and then the same again today?
  23. Mike Sixel
    Based on what? Stashak was effective this year... The Twins can't only pitch their top two two to three RPs all series.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Either they believe in those guys.... Or they aren't a good team. They are a good team, so....
  25. Mike Sixel
    I'll take that bet. It's a mutual discussion and decision. That's how the best teams are run, according to national writers.
