    for Lucroy, I'm all in. Kepler and another prospect or two, sure. For a RP, I'm less excited.....but willing to listen. but he compared Kepler's CEILING to a stiff. And, Arcia is out of options. He's either here, or gone, next year.
  2. Mike Sixel
    preach it brother......
  3. Mike Sixel
    Please tell me something better is coming back.....Plouffe is a top 10 guy at his position. He should be netting a SS or C in AA or higher that you are virtually certain is a starter.
  4. Mike Sixel
    that would be depressing.....is Buxton elite, like all the other top guys coming up this year, or not?
  5. Mike Sixel
    I'm not sure what that has to do with my post, can you help me understand?
  6. Mike Sixel
    I wish I could LOVE this post.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Good point. Arcia is the greatest OF defender EVAR!
  8. Mike Sixel
    Arcia is out of options after this year....Kepler has them. Again, that has huge value. I don't get this talk at all.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Uh, Kepler's SLG is pretty high for a 22 YO in AA ball....... Defense? He plays CF, RF, and 1B. Ceiling is Stahoviak? Uh, no. Not close. Wow. Just, wow.
  10. Mike Sixel
    that was me trying really, really hard to be nice to TR, and you killed it! Killed me being nice to TR? Why would you do that to me? I need a beer....* *that whole rant wasn't serious, for all you overly serious people......
  11. Mike Sixel
    Kepler will not have proved anything, nor will Hicks. Yet you suggest trading one this off season? I don't disagree with maybe taking that chance, btw, but I'm not sure I understand this response.
  12. Mike Sixel
    doing what with Buxton, Hicks, Rosario? there is no financial implication to playing Joe less, they pay him if he plays, or doesn't play. The key is to play the best players......
  13. Mike Sixel
    I'd do it right now.
  14. Mike Sixel
    then why do we read all the time that it is hard for a tall pitcher to repeat his delivery, and it takes longer for them to develop? There is a difference.
  15. Mike Sixel
    He did deal for Shannon Stewart, didn't he? You'd think that when it works, you'd maybe try it again....
  16. Mike Sixel
    We'll just disagree. And I'm ok with that. And no, your last paragraph does not logically follow from the theory.
  17. Mike Sixel
    Agree with every word in this post. Other than the Meyer thing, which ain't happening (and I know you said if).
  18. Mike Sixel
    they placed a very bad bet, given what we know about tall pitchers, imo. As I said at the time, the idea is good, but needs to be judged on how good Meyer turns out. Had I known the history of tall pitchers, I would have ripped it mercilessly at the time.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Uh, that Astros trade was great for the Astros. They have no CF, and their OF defense is suspect. They are loaded with young talent already. He's controlled past this year. They also got a controlled pitcher, who will pitch out of the bullpen this year, with spot starts. He can step into the rotation next year if they don't sign another guy.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Why the bleep would you deal those guys for Upton? Mind. Boggling.
  21. Mike Sixel
    Meyers is 6 foot 9. List the players not named Randy Johnson that have been good pitchers at that height........I'll wait.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Two real trades in that whole list. I'm not holding my breath here. I do agree with Ryan on one thing, trading a legit prospect for a rental this year is now a bad idea. Everyone else around them is trying hard to get elite players, and has amassed real talent. I don't think their quickly evaporating games in hand are enough to hold them all off. Of course, this is a self-fulfilling prophecy, sitting around and losing ballgames while the bullpen implodes, then saying they weren't good enough to add players that matter.....
  23. Mike Sixel
    What does Graham do now that May has his job of not mattering?
  24. Mike Sixel
    Sorry, that was my prediction for a Ryan quote........

    Inconceivable
