    Interesting that they can sell next year......w/o sharing in profits.....
  2. Mike Sixel
    I thought the tweet said the oppo.
  3. Mike Sixel
    Base on what?
  4. Mike Sixel
    It has to be about a disagreement about the trade deadline, doesn't it? Otherwise, why now? I am still stunned.....

    Well, if he's looking for pitching, there's this Berrios guy I hear is available......and it would cost nothing to acquire him either! I guess we'll see. By their own words in the paper two weeks ago, they were talking about other teams not calling them, with no mention of them calling others. Also, we've read that they are not willing to throw in money. And, if that is the list of available players, I don't see much return if they won't throw in money, do you?

    In fairness, you have shared similar thoughts, he should be up now. He's not. In fact, you just typed he should be up now.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Frankly, if MLBtraderumors is correct, and they are both waiting for calls, and not willing to throw in money, well, I have little faith this team is going to help themselves for the future this deadline.

    Tigger is my second favorite tiger, after Hobbes....where is Hobbes? some pictures: edit: not to diminish the awesomeness of the intro, I'm just adding to the list....
  9. Mike Sixel
    Well, too much longer would be guess.....
  10. Mike Sixel
    Sometimes they get put up in other peoples' houses, but no.
  11. Mike Sixel
    ?
  12. Mike Sixel
    Early contender for post of the thread
  13. Mike Sixel
    probably not......I'd do the first two for sure, meaning your proposal might be fair.....
  14. Mike Sixel
    two thoughts/questions: I'm not sure there is a FA SP next year as good as Santana* Are you saying they can get a better SP than Santana for the number 80ish prospect? *I have not checked, but it wouldn't surprise me.
  15. Mike Sixel
    if you want to compete next year....where does the talent come from, if they aren't here this year? Are you expecting a bunch of minor league callups to produce next year? if you are going to argue May got a shot, we'll disagree, see the post after you with all the stats.
  16. Mike Sixel
    In a week or two, after he sits, sure.....but no hurry.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Oh, that last sentence is so true, so very true.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Cheaper than just spending the money, in the offseason, and not losing a prospect at all? Or, cheaper money wise? Because the discussion we are having is that if you want guys on multi year deals in trades, why don't you want them in FA?

    When did we start discussing Lucroy on this thread? I am baffled by this entire part of the conversation, since, that's not what the thread is about. It is about the consistency of the approach and the process of rebuilding this roster. If we want to revisit points I've already conceded, we can do that.......If a team had dealt for Lucroy last year, it would have cost less than it will this year, and they'd have him and his results for the year...... A good trade last year? Either trading for RP sooner, or not dealing for only 1, would have been better than what they did, imo. I don't know......it is super, super, super unlikely that acquiring help last year would have made a difference, other than the bullpen (which many pointed out as a weakness before the year started) and a CF option.....neither of which they did. IMO, and YMMV of course, trading prospects for RP with multiple years of control, but not wanting to sign such pitchers (the whole point of the thread).....that seems like an odd strategy to me.

    Going to Hawaii in January......looking forward to it!
  21. Mike Sixel
    I was trying to be kind/generous/nice.......apologies.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Actually, we are discussing if/when a team should go all in, or go all out. I put a small parenthetical in one post among several, saying I thought the Twins could have acquired Tulo last year. I'm willing to concede that was a bad idea. Can we now return to the point of the thread?
  23. Mike Sixel
    I'd trade him, but man, the replacements are awful........not surprising really. When trading Aaron Hicks, you aren't exactly (or shouldn't be expecting) getting a great return. Aim low, hit low.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Well, he said he wanted him.....and it's possible that is true, but if it is, ouch. Big ouch.
  25. Mike Sixel
    Kielty for Stewart, imo.
