    Move KC to the pen....much easier solution, imo. KC to bullpen, Pino and Darnell down, the three M's in the starting rotation. That's what I would do. When Nolasco is healthy, either shut down Meyer, or move him to the pen.

    Who would be unhappy? I think everyone would be happy he is doing better.
  3. Mike Sixel
    Who are these mythical better OF next year? Because they have zero in AA or AAA right now you could count on. Nyerere May have a point, but it just seems low.
  4. Mike Sixel
    I too cannot believe how little Tampa got.
  5. Mike Sixel
    I'd cut KC, or move him to the pen. It isn't my job to figure out where to send them......I have no idea. KC has no place on a rebuilding team, with May and Meyer sitting in AAA.

    An A for the Fuld trade, really amazing to me, frankly. Not a fan of the Suzuki signing, but if they won't play Pinto, it is a B I guess. Still having to watch KC instead of May and Meyer, F. Willingham still here? D I weight the Fuld trade the strongest, so I guess it is a B from me, though that seems like a hollow B, frankly. They added a league median or slight worse pitcher (outside Oak), and signed a catcher over 30 that was AWFUL the two years before this. I don't see much that really FIXES things, but the Milone trade is just mind bogglingly good....

    Well, we can look at the last four years, apply aging and recovery from yet another injury, and reach some educated conclusions.....
  8. Mike Sixel
    Not a fan. I'm trying to be more positive, and like more posts, and it is limited. I understand the database reasons......but not a fan.
  9. Mike Sixel
    If that is it, he gets an A for the trade he made, and a series of Cs or Ds for not moving KC, Willingham, and Suzuki. YMMV, of course.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Not a huge Suzuki guy......but it won't kill me if they extend him.
  11. Mike Sixel
    There are no compensatory picks for guys traded mid-season, so the A's won't get a pick if/when he leaves. edit: scooped.....
  12. Mike Sixel
    Hope you are right Dave. Would love to have the three Ms in the rotation with Hughes and Gibson. That would feel so future looking, and be effective eventually. Feeling more positive now......
  13. Mike Sixel
    Vargas up? that is surprising. Wow.
  14. Mike Sixel
    Great trade by TR. I'll give him an A on this one. I'm not sure Milone is even median, but he's a legit SP in exchange for a 4th OF. the ONLY negative is that this probably delays one of May / Meyer, doesn't it? Will TR turn around and deal from their glut of MLB/AAAA/AAA pitchers? Or will the Twins have legit MLB SP sitting in NY this year and next?
  15. Mike Sixel
    I love teams that go for it when they have a REAL chance. Love it. Even if it does not end up working, he's trying to win it all.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Suzuki is blocking Pinto. Or, Willingham is blocking Pinto. Together, they are blocking Pinto. If this team is ever going to actually rebuild from within, they need to get the young guys up here, not sitting in NY or CT.
  17. Mike Sixel
    There are names.....some of the current chaffe could be cut though, imo, without much loss. I do agree, I would not add Buxton this year, as much as it pains me type that.
  18. Mike Sixel
    13 starts with 1 or 0 runs given up.....sounds pretty consistent to me.
  19. Mike Sixel
    My five..... Arcia, Santana, Meyer, May, Buxton.....with a Rosario bonus, though he is not doing what I had hoped this year.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Thanks!
  21. Mike Sixel
    I have seriously tried to be more positive lately. Today, I am not succeeding......
  22. Mike Sixel
    Not deleting posts.....sorry. When typing up a post, there used to be a cancel button. I know it is redundant to "back" or just erasing the post, but it did make it easy for me type a tirade. Read it. And hit cancel before posting my stupidity.......
  23. Mike Sixel
    Brock, did there used to be a "cancel" button by the posts? Believe it or not, I'd sometimes delete my tirades and not post them. I assume now, I should just hit "back' or something else. I liked the button, but if you are doing agile, you can put this at the bottom of your user stories......
  24. Mike Sixel
    If only there was a solution to the log jams of players.......
  25. Mike Sixel
    It is not about salary. Back of the pen guys should be fungible assets you can option up and down to AAA. This is one reason they have issues, imo, they do not manage the roster properly.
