    My wife sells window treatments. A lot are made in Mexico. She had received emails saying prices are going up, followed by emails saying they aren't. How, exactly, should a small business owner run their business if they don't know their cost of goods. Where is her bailout, like farmers get? That last part was sarcasm.... But points out the hypocrisy of rural voters, who are happy to receive federal subsidies, while saying city people are just lazy if they get them....

    Good luck! Congrats!

    I take that one year, 17MM every time, unless they offer more than 13MM per year in a multi year deal.....I'm betting on myself below that number.
  4. Mike Sixel
    I really want to believe in this pitching staff......
  5. Mike Sixel
    I'm baffled by this entire string, which seems like an attack, frankly.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Two QOs? Pay two pitchers, what, 17+ million each? That's thirty percent of the budget. I have doubts about that.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Other than I wasn't talking about one issue, and I said within reason, and was clearly responding to a candidate changing his mind, no. Not the same at all.
  8. Mike Sixel
    As long as he eventually does the right things if elected, I'm not surei care about the path to get there. Within reason....
  9. Mike Sixel
    Seems obvious in retrospect. Thanks for the update!

    Biden flips on the Hyde amendment. Good for him.
  11. Mike Sixel
    I'd like the Twins chances more if the pitcher had a name. But, I am very curious about who it will be.
  12. Mike Sixel
    I read the whole thing every time. Love these. I always look at the WPA. I usually watch any highlights. I never watch the manager talk. I like the win expectancy chart. When the bullpen is being used a lot, I look at the chart, but maybe only once a week.
  13. Mike Sixel
    I only get to watch on gameday or gamecast or whatever.... The budget no longer allows paying to watch baseball.... But it would be great on two fronts if true. One, they need someone to be better. Two, it provides evidence that what they are doing is working!
  14. Mike Sixel
    Love your categories. Not sure I'd rank them identically, but good approach!
  15. Mike Sixel
    I keep hoping on him. He should be, imo, more successful than he is.
  16. Mike Sixel
    True. It's about the system, not one player.
  17. Mike Sixel
    I like how people are mocking the Cubs,a team the twins can only hope to be.
  18. Mike Sixel
    That sort of makes my point. If that's all he is worth in trade, he probably isn't worth ten percent of this team's budget.
  19. Mike Sixel
    I was an early proponent of moving Rogers to the pen. I'm not sure which AAA guy right now I'd do that with. And, that's not the point. How has the back of the bullpen faired, because that's who would not pitch if they had brought in help. People always point out the bad free agent performance relative to pay, but don't look at the just straight up bad performance of the next three guys that bounce up and down while teams try to find the next Rogers....
  20. Mike Sixel
    Same. The baserunnung adventures can be interesting.... But I'd rather have him around. But, they are loaded with OF prospects, and they have a budget. Back to what it means for pitching, I think it more likely they have another minimum guy starting than the current list.
  21. Mike Sixel
    That's not his point. Chief is all for trading prospects. He doesn't think multiple, or even one, Pressley types is out there and will be traded for medium prospects, or at all.
  22. Mike Sixel
    I like the analysis of the roster, and overall budget as context. What it tells me most is that Rosario is going to get traded....
  23. Mike Sixel
    How has relying on the AAA pitchers worked? What if those teams had to drop into their minors, would that be better? What is the better alternative?
  24. Mike Sixel
    I was wondering how close those three would be in WPA. I wonder what Max would have to do to be ahead by even more? It's clear, to me, Berrios is a playoff pitcher. And Rogers. I still think Gibson is fine, now that he's recovered. I'd like one more good relief pitcher that everyone trusted.... Probably another starter
  25. Mike Sixel
    Politics has changed since then. That's the point I was trying, unsuccessfully, to make.
