    Assuming Gordon is healthy, him. But Schoop is going nowhere.... Not until after game 162.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Griffen Jax. Ok, probably not, but a guy can dream. If they won't trade these guys, get them up here with their stuff.
  3. Mike Sixel
    No need to keep Stewart around either. He and Perez are toast.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Sure. How many years do they get?
  5. Mike Sixel
    Ugh. So predictable.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Why is Schoop batting?
  7. Mike Sixel
    Did that post say that only an ace was needed? It says the Twins need another great pitcher to help this team. Do people disagree?
  8. Mike Sixel
    I'd consider a DFA at this point. The smoke and mirrors are gone.
  9. Mike Sixel
    And people tried to convince me Perez would be back next year.... No chance.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Great idea!
  11. Mike Sixel
    When I suggested the Twins do exactly this with the lineup, one of the owners of the site called me overly emotional........guess the FO is too?
  12. Mike Sixel
    Hard to say. Rosario has, what, 2 years of arbitration left after this year? He'd have to go to a good team, needing an OF, and having a SP available. Is there even such a team?
  13. Mike Sixel
    Agreed, but he shouldn't be one you count on to start next year at the beginning of the year. I'd say Smeltzer and, um, who else in the minors? That's really the point, imo. And no, I don't think Rosario returns a MLB starting pitcher....but he can part of a package to get a good/great prospect or two. That 9-12MM combined with other money will help with the pitching.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Ah, I thought Keuchel signed a 2 year deal, but you are correct.....I guess that doesn't really help next year.....
  15. Mike Sixel
    I don't understand your post. Because it reads like you are saying the Twins' know best (which they most certainly do most of the time), and we should not discuss doing things differently......Of course they think Cave is the right player right now, or else someone else would be up.
  16. Mike Sixel
    WHICH ONE IS IT? Either way, the worst teams should be getting guys like this, 100% of the time. If you are too cheap to sign a guy this late in the year, and try to fix him, sell your Q#$TW#R^SGQE$^ team.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Cave shouldn't play CF either, so I'm not sure why that matters. I don't know what Arraez has to do with this discussion...... There is a difference between "the guys in AA aren't ready", and "the guys in AA shouldn't be up to start their clock". I was reading some of the resistance as the second.....if all the resistance is the first, that makes more sense in a potential WS year......but that's not how some of the posts read to me. But let's be honest about Cave, even is he hits, he's a pretty mediocre (at best) fielder for some reason. I thought Cave was a fine 4th OFer last year, but something isn't working this year.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Interesting....because I didn't think they did, but then this was here, and of course the Internet has conflicting articles...... If they aren't league specific, I have no idea what Detroit is doing here....
  19. Mike Sixel
    great post! Giolito? Really depends on what the FO thinks of his turn around this year. But, I don't think I'd do it right now.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Any news from camp at all?
  21. Mike Sixel
    I'm not really thinking about anything but October with these posts...... I'd want one of the young guys available, and having some experience, if Buxton is hurt. I get all your arguments, but I'll never forget the Nationals shutting down Strasburg his rookie year, because "there will always be more chances".
  22. Mike Sixel
    I always forget that waivers are league dependent, which seems really stupid. As you point out, it's easy to see how he got where he did.
  23. Mike Sixel
    I doubt three are brought back. That just seems unlikely. I'm all for one spot being planned for younger players. Perez has been awful, since his hot start, returning to the guy he was in the past. Why would you be in him being good next year, given his history? I agree the FA list looks bad, which is why I hated passing on Keuchel. Which is also why I think they'll have to make a trade, or have a pretty mediocre group of starters next year.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Agree on all fronts. At a minimum, one of the young guys can do that by their second year, and do it for a lot less money, which will be needed for pitching and hopefully Sano or Buxton. Wow, nice sentence....
  25. Mike Sixel
    Fair, but if Buxton is hurt, Cave will play a lot, I'd guess. Someone will, at least. It's too bad Wade is hurt, at least he could have gotten a look. Or Rooker, but I've always had my quotations about him.
