    Perhaps THIS team, sure.....but anything can happen in a given year. That doesn't make it likely to happen, but sure, it could happen (more likely because they signed Cruz and Cron and the hitters are healthy and good, imo).
  2. Mike Sixel
    most definitely!
  3. Mike Sixel
    I just tweeted the question to Meg Rowley....we'll see if she answers.
  4. Mike Sixel
    That's not what I see..... https://www.fangraphs.com/standings/playoff-odds Weird....because this says that: https://www.fangraphs.com/depthcharts.aspx?position=Standings

    7 pitchers from the minors? I hope that is not the actual plan.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Not good enough to be a real difference maker.....acquiring number 4/5 starters in trade isn't taking this team to the playoffs.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Of course, my actual point was......there aren't good, young, under control starters available for trade....and if you don't wan't "old" pitchers, and you don't want expensive pitchers, where, exactly, should they find the 7 pitchers they need next year after Berrios?
  8. Mike Sixel
    Of course, last year and this year count too......so, so far, they've lost. But, we'll see as time goes ....

    Pablo 3:25 What are your thoughts on Pineda for 2019? Steve Adams 3:26 He'll give the Twins something like 140-150 pretty good innings if the arm holds up, though that's never a given with him. So long as he's healthy, he's a pretty easy mid-rotation starter. The $10MM investment looks pretty shrewd at this point. https://www.jotcast.com/chat/chat-with-mlbtrs-steve-adams-4-16-19-5089.html

    pages on whether to call them illegals......maybe we should suggest what to do..... My first, and only so far, suggestion is to help the nations that are having issues decrease their issues, if they want help. But NOT by putting in a dictator.....
  11. Mike Sixel
    Isn't he hitting better than he did all of last year right now? I'm not sure what needs unlocking..... His OBP and SLG are higher this year than in any of his previous full seasons.......what are people looking for?
  12. Mike Sixel
    Exactly.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Agreed. And his answer was just short.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Of course, we are basing these opinions on history too, not just this year. I don't get how that isn't clear. So, no, it isn't really to assess some of these pitchers.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Well, he doesn't run as a Democrat for Senate, and he doesn't say he is one in the Senate, so I guess that's why he's not one. Since he says he isn't.
  16. Mike Sixel
    This. One. Hundred. Percent.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Too bad the team had no money, and there were no free agent relief pitchers available.....
  18. Mike Sixel
    I admit my surprise and joy at the starting picthing today. Yay!
  19. Mike Sixel
    I want to be clear.... It would be better if we would help them in their homeland, imo. It would be better if we would help the poor here more. But, we aren't, and I can't see this administration helping make things better for poor people outside the US... Also, it's not easy. I'm not absolutely sure about any good course of action.. .
  20. Mike Sixel
    Because the GOP keeps voting against helping them, even though they supposedly love military people.... And yes, I've been all over this country. We have homeless camps here, way too many for the wealth this nation has. Like I said, we have the resources, maybe, but we certainly don't have the will.
  21. Mike Sixel
    All fair, but I bet he's better than the guy they did sign.
  22. Mike Sixel
    I actually don't know the answer to that last question. We are the wealthiest nation ever. unemployment is at all time lows. Most of these immigrants will do work most USA born people won't even consider doing. IMO, if we wanted to, we could probably take them all in......but that would require some really rich people to give up some money, and for comfortable urban/suburbanites to allow them to live close to them, and other things.....but yes, I think we could feed, clothe, and employ all of them. Probably. Not without some sacrifice, of course. And no, I'm not saying to let them live in our homes...... My guess is that the real answer is very complicated, and requires great commitment of time, money, people, and other resources.....so no, I'm not sure it is realistic that we can take them all in, not in the current world we live in.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Yup, but it's not quite the same, but yup.
  24. Mike Sixel
    My new kitchen is pretty nice.....but I'm not sure much of anything we build now will even last 900 years, let alone be worth keeping around. to be clear, I mean structures.....there will be art and books and other stuff, but buildings? Maybe a handful.
