    he's 25 already.....time to move him up if he's close to ready.....
  2. Mike Sixel
    Number 7 might be my all time favorite post on this site.
  3. Mike Sixel
    Burdi.....your 8th inning man by the AS break.

    Get a difference maker. Or, use the young guys. If they sign 2 mediocre guys, I'll be very confused. If they sign one, I'll just be disappointed.

    Lots of people don't think it is possible for Hunter to be "that bad"......anyone want to look at Kobe Bryant's shooting percentage this year, and explain how he "forgot how to shoot"?
  6. Mike Sixel
    Great question......if Hunter's range is terrible, will anyone ask TR this question? Like, they totally asked about Nolasco and Pelfrey?
  7. Mike Sixel
    Really, you think that is the actual definition of how the defensive stats are calculated, as opposed to something headed that way?
  8. Mike Sixel
    No need to wait that long, imo. Move the arms up before they fall off. See what you have in another lost year.....
  9. Mike Sixel
    Yup, it's 1999 still.....so eye tests over 162 games (which is what defensive metrics are) are useless, but eye tests over 30 are good. Got it. And, if the GM of a MLB really doesn't know how a metric is calculated right now? That's just not good.

    I do find it fascinating that no contender would offer him the same, or better, deal. Or maybe they did, and he really wanted to come home. I'd have rather traded Milone for Saunders, and moved Saunders to LF.
  11. Mike Sixel
    You just recreated WAR, btw........
  12. Mike Sixel
    I hope you are right. I hope they add a CF somehow.
  13. Mike Sixel
    you missed this part: "he felt the team was in decent shape around the diamond."
  14. Mike Sixel
    Even strike out pitchers benefit from defense. I don't really get how saying the defense is bad somehow "excuses" pitchers. The defense is bad.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Agreed, all Hicks needs is someone to tell him to swing more, that will fix things.
  16. Mike Sixel
    If the Ryan quote is real.....they are going with Hicks/Shaefer? Super. It's worked so well the last two years not having a legit CF, why not try a third year? I suppose it is possible Rosario is here out of spring training, but it seems unlike the Twins to do that. No way Buxton is here for at least 2-3 months... I think, if their strategy is to abandon defense, they are still short of offense.
  17. Mike Sixel
    I had to reboot my ipad after the last update to get video to work. Like, days later. Works fine now.
  18. Mike Sixel
    When would it have been ok to ask about defense and his beliefs? The second press conference, the third?
  19. Mike Sixel
    Other fans do, though, apparently. I wonder how Goin feels about Hunter calling his job stupid, basically.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Agreed. Did anyone ask TR about the defense/non-strikeout pitching staff yet? I didn't get to hear it, as I was in the dentist chair. The media here is largely a PR machine for the teams (though, in fairness, that's probably true in most cities).
  21. Mike Sixel
    But Torii gets to make political statements and make advertisements in support of politicians based on those beliefs? That's the price you pay, if you speak up, you get asked about it. Either way, completely unprofessional to call someone a prick. Good start, Torii.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Wait, did someone just type that the SP staff would be top 10 in the league next year?
  23. Mike Sixel
    Jokingly, or seriously? Either way, not professional.....if the new fieriness is about being a jerk to the media, yuck.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Welcome to the team.
  25. Mike Sixel
    I have... I have said maybe they are just trying to outscore the other team this year, I've said it like three times now....
