    Odd. Do they think they are a playoff team?
  2. Mike Sixel
    Ridiculed, ripped, roasted? Either way, I am glad they have moved him to his long term position. He looks like a legit prospect.
  3. Mike Sixel
    No surprise on Polanco. And so many judged those who said so.
  4. Mike Sixel
    Your examples are awfully cherry picked. Two guys that grew up here and never reached free agency.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Do we know that? I don't think we do. Money talks. If they offer it, players will sign, imo.
  6. Mike Sixel
    I just don't want a bottleneck. They both need promoting next year.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Mauer is producing value? Compared to what? Not first basemen.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Beerios.....is not ready. That is what Ryan said.......ugh.
  9. Mike Sixel
    I think he means everyone gets the one in the rule book, not that a 5 foot player and a 7 foot player get the same zone.....I'd bet good money on that being his intent.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Ya, I think you are finding all the edge cases here to argue "you can't make it 100% perfect, so don't improve it at all".....at least that is how it reads.
  11. Mike Sixel
    I did see it, but now I see he's actually been benched. And then they just put him in at 2B, so ya, the report I read was wrong about being sent down.
  12. Mike Sixel
    People love to hate on Arcia, and love Hunter......it is frankly baffling to me.
  13. Mike Sixel
    There is noise in the math that runs computers, is used to assess outcomes in business processes, in every measurement, there is noise. Denying that something is real because there are multiple variables and noise.....that's not going to lead to good outcomes in any line of business. I don't think that's what he's saying, but is sounds like that is what he is saying....
  14. Mike Sixel
    I'm glad he'll start again next year. No idea why this is a good idea this year, but it is what it is.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Do we have any evidence from the Twins that this is imminent, or are we just hoping? It would be great to see him up here this year.
  16. Mike Sixel
    There is zero evidence that rule is real. The links studying the actual effect and debunking it as not true at all are all over if you want to find them.
  17. Mike Sixel
    he is actually a zero or so right now
  18. Mike Sixel
    Despise pinch running here. On second? No......ugh.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Sano is legit. You get what you pay for......
  20. Mike Sixel
    Was busy. How has Hunter carried the team to victory tonight?
  21. Mike Sixel
    He clearly has a shot. If the O's somehow make the playoffs and Machado carries them, it could be him. Really, it depends on what the Jays, O's and Angels do as teams the rest of the way. Trout will still be hurt by old schoolers, Donaldson by Canada and all the hitters they've amassed....imo.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Then bench him to playing around 40 games a year. I can't think of any off the top of my head, I know guys get injured, and 1 guy retired a couple years ago, but I'd bet it is rare. Doesn't make it right, btw......just, as you say, reality.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Smart organizations figured out sunk costs in the 1980s, literally......if not sooner. Hunter and Mauer are sunk costs, that absolutely should be cut/benched (more so Mauer). It just is what it is. Winning brings fans, are you suggesting this market wouldn't love Buxton like they loved Kirby, Denard, Torii eventually?
  24. Mike Sixel
    As a bonus, he has the three name thing going, which Texans seem to love....
  25. Mike Sixel
    This whole "he has to go to AAA to face harder pitching" thing cracks me up. when I push to have guys go to AAA, like Kepler or Buxton earlier, I am told that it doesn't matter, there isn't much difference in the pitching, or "you can jump right from AA to the majors"........now I am told that Buxton has to go to AAA because the pitching is better and you really should go to every level first.....I am confused since many of these people are the same people making two different arguments.
