    If each team cut 1 team, that would be 30 minor league teams. I can't see how that would dramatically effect MLB interest......
  2. Mike Sixel
    Where do you expect to get three good pitchers next year, if you don't sign good ones? Also, Yu has been good the second half this year, isn't on the IL, and isn't suspended. He's also under contract past this year, so one spot would be filed for next year....

    Rest is critical for peak performance. I don't know how this is even up for debate.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Congrats. It has been a fun year so far.

    They made money last year, revenue is up, and more than fifty million is coming off the books. Those are all publicly available facts. Do you have any evidence otherwise?
  6. Mike Sixel
    I really found that one interesting.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Those comments were not aimed at your comments at all. Others seem to care if he was also taking PEDs, and I don't get why that matters. But I've made my points. He cheated. It is ridiculously easy to get help from team doctors. He didn't. That raises some obvious questions..... And pointed to a lack of some kind of innocence. He's on the wrong side of thirty .He hasn't pitched a full year in three years.

    I'm asking why it matters if he was also taking PEDs. He took a banned substance. He didn't work with the team, which is super easy to do. People defending him are hoping, not really thinking about the fact he didn't work with team doctors, paid to work with him....
  9. Mike Sixel
    I really don't get the PED distinction. Why does that matter at all?

    Forbes is an estimate. Also, they can just sell it if they ever need money....... They clear tens of millions off the books this year. Pineda. Odorrizi. Reed. Hughes. Gibson. Cron. Castro. Schoop. Perez. That's off the top of my head.

    Chicago also winning the trade does not mean Boston lost it. Take Sale away, and add another hitter to that team, do they win a WS? Probably not. Because they aren't winning this year mostly because the pitching isn't as good as the last three years.....
  12. Mike Sixel
    No way they jeopardize what might be a good team (or it might be terrible) in 6 years to call up Kiriloff in a year they know they are contenders. I mean, then they'd have to maybe pay Kiriloff real money a year earlier.
  13. Mike Sixel
    He'll miss 39 games next year, according to Fangraphs.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Sale is also a stud, and he helped them win a WS. If you won't trade studs for great players, you'll never trade for great players. Oh, and they still have a great 3B in Boston.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Meh, what do the Cubs know about winning?
  16. Mike Sixel
    For those wanting to sign him....what do you do for the first 8-9 starts he'll miss? Start another rookie besides whomever is the fifth starter?
  17. Mike Sixel
    the Yankees traded for one of the biggest contracts in the game. Yes, they did a MUCH better job of buying IFA than the Sox, but the rules changed after DD got there.......not sure how he was supposed to catch up to them. The Sox had a bad farm system when DD took over. They traded exactly 1 very good player in the time DD was there.
  18. Mike Sixel
    because they care more about making more millions than winning......that's why every team is doing it. Also, they've somehow convinced fans that this is a good idea. Money>winning.
  19. Mike Sixel
    The farm wasn't good before....read this for perspective: https://www.theringer.com/mlb/2019/9/9/20856897/dave-dombrowski-fired-boston-red-sox-mlb ninja'd by vanimal.....

    They won the division more than once. In an off year they will win more than they lose. Why do people fall for this poor owner BS? The Twins haven't even won a playoff series yet, and have one starting pitcher under contract next year. Maybe we should wait to see if they are actually building a sustainable winner just a bit....
  21. Mike Sixel
    This team has fifty or more million it can add to the budget, and still make a profit. Y'all have to stop listening to the owners about payroll.... Or not. Up to you. But they have plenty of budget.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Most of those you named aren't league average.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Ugh.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Hard to have innings if you miss year after year.
  25. Mike Sixel
    I'd prefer they utterly dominate like Baltimore or the KC team.... But it's a good win.
