    Well, I'm a cord cutter, even though that name is silly, because we have internet on a cord......so no issues!

    They need to find three or four starting pitchers next off season.... Given their fiscal restraint, would you rather downgrade first, or spend less on pitching? They will likely need relief pitching also.
  3. Mike Sixel
    It's like margin of error doesn't exist all of a sudden.... But let's set aside if he's replacement level, or close... He's not good. He's ok. Which was the actual point of the post that started this tangent. I hope the find someone better, or much cheaper so they upgrade someplace else.

    Actually, one fWAR is replacement level, unless you think it is that precise over a full year..... As for his defense, that is what people said about Mauer. First base defense is just not that hard to find.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Yes. That whole series is just hot takes.... Even though he often says teams have guys coming on, so they aren't really a problem...

    Like who that is available? There just aren't many high end starters out there, I'd guess. And they aren't dealing those two both for RPs.
  8. Mike Sixel
    There isn't much evidence they only want controllable players. Cron, Cruz, Schoop, Odo, and more had one or two year deals/control.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Way too much. You'd have to get at least one or two more guys back from the Mets for that.

    They've also cut salary, even after signing players to extensions. But, I do believe they will add players this week. We'll see
  11. Mike Sixel
    Of course they can afford him. It's a choice. But I'd bet they don't acquire him.
  12. Mike Sixel
    I hope they find someone better than Cron next year. He's been replacement level.
  13. Mike Sixel
    This is good news. The front office thinks he's ready for AA. That's a bit surprising, but good.

    I like this a lot more than when it was first announced, and it was only Romo coming back. It's a fine, not exciting, idea to trade minor league depth for an ok RP and a minor league pitcher. Just do two more things....
  15. Mike Sixel
    People like Romo to help this team? Because they need to help this team, not just the future.
  16. Mike Sixel
    I don't understand this. He's not great, and, ummm.
  17. Mike Sixel
    f.txt,....

    One down.....
  19. Mike Sixel
    There's a difference between Wright ready, and a Syndergaard though. One is going to very likely help this year and next. One might be ready next year, or might not. The relative value for both is different depending on where you are competitively. But that's the kind of guy the Mets probably want. I was told the best plan was to draft hitters and trade for pitchers. Let's see if that happens or not....

    Pretty low on food right now. I've been eating it all, and not shipping much. I mostly have junk right now..... The Swype keyboard on this ipad sucks at greeting the right word....
  21. Mike Sixel
    Well played! Not so well. I got distracted making the Manhattan, and the popcorn oil got too hot. Mostly I have half popped, burned, popcorn. I might have to eat an apple....
  22. Mike Sixel
    Why isn't a terrible team claiming him, and giving him a shot. Look at some of these pitching staffs.... Or, for your sake, don't.....
  23. Mike Sixel
    I can't imagine anyone calling me Big Mike.
  24. Mike Sixel
    I tried not to be amused....
  25. Mike Sixel
    We rarely have cherries, but I might make some, as it were. We definitely like those.
