    Ha, I actually did just that.
  2. Mike Sixel
    Have fun everyone. I will be sitting in the Denver airport....for what appears to be some time.
  3. Mike Sixel
    That seems unlikely.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Calling it hindsight, when the entire board was questioning it as it happened? That seems unfair.

    He was the best pitcher in the league in 2014, the twins were terrible, and had no pitching. There was no reason not to call him up. He may have failed, or succeeded. But now he is two years older, and still has not had a shot. A rebuilding team should be bringing guys up, not starting guys with no upside.
  6. Mike Sixel
    He should have been up in 2014. The misuse goes back some time
  7. Mike Sixel
    Wade should be promoted soon. There is no reason for him to spend much more time in low A.
  8. Mike Sixel
    I think they did not set him up for success, given the rest and then short relief appearance, then the start. The job of any leader is to set her employees up for success. The twins, imo, did not do that in the last two weeks. I am still waiting for any sign Molitor knows what he is doing
  9. Mike Sixel
    I hope these guys move up sooner, rather than later.
  10. Mike Sixel
    While some hate the threads, some hate being told how to feel..... Buxton is not a product of marketing.....he was always considered a top pick. I think he could use some coaching, frankly.
  11. Mike Sixel
    The nerves displayed by Meyer and Berrios are why you call guys up before you need them. Especially I a lost season. Meyer should have been up two years ago.
  12. Mike Sixel
    There is almost nothing I like about this manager and how he handles players
  13. Mike Sixel
    Shouldn't Duffey be available out of the pen? Or is he just sitting next to Murphy doing nothing?
  14. Mike Sixel
    hard to understand how they have depth issues, given the hundreds of pitchers on the 40 man, and the ones just behind them that are not......* *yes, I know that's an exaggeration.
  15. Mike Sixel
    I don't understand the FEAR of using a young player in a key situation. But, I agree, they won't. Very well written, btw.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Unfortunately, I agree with this.
  17. Mike Sixel
    As Brock reminded me yesterday, we are best off not trying to figure out the plan......
  18. Mike Sixel
    And that, imo, is why he should have been up for a game or two last year. Get those nerves out of the way.......
  19. Mike Sixel
    We clearly aren't going to agree......I understand why people would pass up money to spend time with family. I totally get it.
  20. Mike Sixel
    I admit it, I am more excited about this than I was Buxton, but about the same as Sano.......super excited!
  21. Mike Sixel
    No, I phrase it like they are people, who sometimes just want to spend time with their families instead of beating the crap out of their bodies for entertainment purposes.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Right, but Tampa tried him at starter first.......
  23. Mike Sixel
    All fair points.....my point is, if he's utterly dominating a level, he should move up. Pitchers get hurt. A lot. The entire league is moving pitchers up faster and faster because: young guys throw harder pitchers get hurt the more pitches they throw
  24. Mike Sixel
    Fair, I think the arguments around mine are better anyway.....the Royals tried guys as starters first, then converted them.......
  25. Mike Sixel
    Without the awesome defense, emphasis on on base percentage, and a manager willing to use young RPs......sure, just the same.
