    Agreed on all counts, though I'm not sold on Lee (man, really shocked at how bad he's been at hitting so far).
  2. Mike Sixel
    Illnesses and injuries.

    Well, the FO said this isn't a rebuild.....but neither of us believe that. Also again, I was replying to a post, and that was the context of my reply. Nothing more or less. Let's be clear, though, most sites think the Twins have a lot of good prospects, but not many great ones. Since none of us are scouts, we kind of have to rely on those sites for perspective. Or not,, but that's what I do. Sure, everything could work! The Twins could fix Outman (hahahahaha) and Raj (who hasn't been good in the majors at all) and all of the LH OF that need to be on the 40 man somehow get playing time, and all the pitchers they traded for could reach their ceiling! (I keep seeing posts that say "if they trades work out perfectly, the Twins win the trades"....hawt takes!). But, the TWins haven't fixed any hitters under this FO. (I don't see you doing this, btw). I do think they can build a bullpen over two years from this group. I have no idea if they have enough SP though, especially if this is a rebuild and they deal Ryan/Lopez. I have no confidence this FO can identify and develop hitters and defenders,. Of course it is difficult to predict prospects.......which is one reason I found it odd the Twins took most of the risk in these deals. I love they went for ceiling, though......so who knows?

    Adding this many LH OF that need to be on the 40 man was definitely confusing. But, Outman will be DFA, so that won't take a spot. I'd consider moving Mendez to 1B right now, given what we've read, and what else this team has in the minors. I'm guessing Larnach is dealt in the off season.
  5. Mike Sixel
    I might not pay attention at all if they do that.

    You're arguing against something I didn't say. I replied that the farm system isn't considered top three. Agree? I posted that it is rated highly because of depth, I mean it's literally what fangraphs said in their review. They have a lot of prospects that night work. So I'm not sure your point?
  7. Mike Sixel
    He plays CF when not catching?
  8. Mike Sixel
    All the prospects https://blogs.fangraphs.com/ranking-the-mlb-prospects-traded-at-the-2025-deadline/
  9. Mike Sixel
    All of it.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Crabby mood right now. Feel free to brush this all off. Though I really hate what AI is doing, I shouldn't hammer everyone over it. Sorry.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Also, Nick, I know you didn't want this. Sorry for you and many other fans.
  12. Mike Sixel
    The outman trade is unforgivable. He's 28. He's in AAA? The next two months better be auditions!
  13. Mike Sixel
    You got a thumbs down because chatgp is usually wrong, we know this from studies. and other reasons. Like it's insane waste of water and electricity.
  14. Mike Sixel
    ninjad!
  15. Mike Sixel
    The farm system isn't top three. Most of the value of the farm is in quantity, not quality. Which superstars are ready to start next year?
  16. Mike Sixel
    I'd be shocked if he's that good!
  17. Mike Sixel
    How is Kiersey even on this roster? Or Gasper?
  18. Mike Sixel
    I give him two more weeks to show me he can hit. Or onto Eeles or Keaschell or both. Also, Kiersey has to be done, right?
  19. Mike Sixel
    I'm pretty sure that wasn't a fully serious post.
  20. Mike Sixel
    @Brock Beauchamp, please add who cares as an option in the opening question.... Or not. Don't really care.
  21. Mike Sixel
    He should play every day.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Four players is not a core...... More like a seed. I think 2027 is playing a part. I think they think they just made pitching really deep, in anticipation of trading Lopez and maybe Ryan. I think of it was easy to build a bullpen from scratch, that other teams wouldn't need to trade for so many all the time. I think anyone that isn't part of the plans beyond next year should be off the roster, like Gasper. Either embrace the retool, rebuild, strategy, or what is the plan? One fangraphs writer thought it was amazing the Twins traded for someone who was on the dodgers roster, and sent the 28 year old to the minors. I agree. Why trade for someone that age of he can't even beat out Kiersey?
  23. Mike Sixel
    Diaw is back? Wow. I thought we were told he might miss the year. Huge. Hoping Houston isn't in Florida long. That's likely less talented opposition than he had in college. Also hoping Horn moves to RP and they move him fast.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Why is gasper on a team auditioning players for next year? What's the damn plan?
  25. Mike Sixel
    Is that good?
