    I'd rather have Keuchel than a RP.....but then, I'm looking at next year's SP, not just this year's......One good SP under contract past this year. One.

    Snow, rain, sleet, hail, thunder, and supposedly dust from TX all fell today. Were the cats and dogs busy?

    I really wanted to buy puts on Lyft.....should have.....

    I agree with all of this.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Now you're just trolling the poor people of the midwest.......

    It's not fair, but we shouldn't criticize the team? It's not fair, so we shouldn't say it's a terrible deal? I'm confused. And, plenty of extensions don't get this kind of ridicule. From, what I read, ALL CORNERS of MLB, including other FO anonymously.

    That doesn't make it close to a fair contract for his services. But sure, it's just business to take advantage of these players and their family situations. So, no biggie I guess
  9. Mike Sixel
    Out of perspective? This might be the worst extension in MLB history...... It comes from cutting the international bonuses, so they don't get even close to their value, and then wanting money sooner. It's an awful deal for the player......awful.

    Newt 1:55 I don’t know if he’ll ever hit consistently, but man, watching Byron Buxton break the sound barrier rounding second en route to his triple last night was jaw-dropping. Keith Law 1:55 And at the plate, he looks like he did for most of 2017, too. I'm optimistic. https://www.jotcast.com/chat/klawchat-4-11-19-5061.html

    The majority of starts in MLB last year were five and one third..... Pitching has changed.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Not to mention but context matters. The twins weren't real contenders when Kepler came up. Also, scouting and projections matter. Kepler wins in both of those over Austin.... By a huge margin.

    Other than a handful of people, is anyone surprised the pitching is bad? Bargain signings and trades.... Are bargains for a reason. Romero should be in the pen. After their fifth starter is terrible, I anticipate a series of promotions. Oh, and next year? They have one legit starter signed.... Good luck.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Concur. It's all about bargains and efficiency.....
  15. Mike Sixel
    Not even close. You always pinch hit after the sixth, unless you are way ahead. And that doesn't make up for the first two or three awful at bats for each team.
  16. Mike Sixel
    I don't really blame Baldelli there.....other than I'd have taken out Odo sooner.......He can't burn out the bullpen in early April. IMO, this is partly on the FO for the choices they've given him. The last manager burned out the bulllpen .....
  17. Mike Sixel
    Have any pitches been close to their pitcher?
  18. Mike Sixel
    What just happened? Kind of hard to tell on gameday.....
  19. Mike Sixel
    I'm not sure if they have long tracks, but the app "calm" has some stuff.....you might want to check meditatin apps/sites too..........or use spotify lists/songs/sounds.....
  20. Mike Sixel
    right, within the context of available players, agreed......
  21. Mike Sixel
    Well, that's not the same as worrying about Cron vs Austin.......since you'd have the same worry if they kept Austin, and he got hurt......
  22. Mike Sixel
    I like runs for the good team....
  23. Mike Sixel
    I don't think it is unrealistic to expect Austin to be better this year and next, I just don't think he will be. But I'm not all that confident, frankly.
  24. Mike Sixel
    NEED PICKS.......I am in constant argument with fans who think trading a 3rd for 4 6ths is a good idea.....
  25. Mike Sixel
    because they have three young starting OFers, they have 4-7 legit OF prospects, and one or more will move to DH/1B.....see Cody Bellinger as an example....... So, no, we don't agree that none of those will ever move to 1B or DH (and backup OF) (and, as I posted later, I'm betting 1B is Sano or Rooker medium term or longer). Also, as Mauer reminds us, sometimes catchers become 1B......
