    If everyone goes... only take hitters high.... good pitchers will fall.

    For those sure Greene is bad.... Check out @keithlaw’s Tweet:

    I lived in walking distance in Hillsboro year 1....was too busy wiht work, beer fests, wineries and hiking to ever go.....but I'd happily head out there sometime if you want. Or not. Either works.

    The Twins have Wade, Cave, Granite all in AAA (or should be).....they couldn't find one RH OF to trade for? I just don't buy that. And no, I don't have a list of the RH OF in AA and AAA to tell you who..... It's not crucial.....but it also wouldn't be expensive to find a RH OF that they think is a 4th OF (and maybe LaMarre remarkably becomes so, against years of minor league data saying otherwise, which would be great).

    someday we can watch a game together.....
  6. Mike Sixel
    true, if those were he only PA in professional baseball..... but it's really about Castro, isn't it? Looking back, who would you rather have at that time?
  7. Mike Sixel
    they had alreayd subtracted him.....the only real discussions here, imo,are: Is it good for a mid market team to sell draft picks? Is it likley they will spend as much money next year as this year? Is there some other way they'll use the money to improve the team on the field?
  8. Mike Sixel
    If BPA is always a pitcher, do you always take a pitcher?
  9. Mike Sixel
    apparently I didn't take it well! Loser. I wonder what I said in the recap type posts, probably (hopefully) less emotional. I did over react to Boras....clearly.
  10. Mike Sixel
    which does not mean it helps the Twins.....on the field.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Mid market teams can't compete for "the long term, forever"....they just can't. But yes, this is a tangent. there was actually recently an article on this on one of the sites....basically, to extend your window (and to have ultimate success) you need to spend more and more money.....
  12. Mike Sixel
    They could have traded for one. If this is the window, then they need to be willing to trade prospects.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Agreed, but really hard to see how they spend more than this year's budget.
  14. Mike Sixel
    It is possible they really liked Littel. It is possible ownership changed their mind. It is possible they are doing something amazing next year. We won't know until next year, I'd guess.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Hate speech is not protected. They could have written clear statements that it was discrimination, but they still side with the bakers door to process issues. This will embolden bigots, bigots aren't known for nuance. And in the meantime, individuals will be discrimated against.
  16. Mike Sixel
    David 2:34 What do you make of the Twins? Think they should be buyers and can compete with the Indians? Dan Szymborski 2:34 Depends where they realistically are in July. I dont' think they should be aggressive right now
  17. Mike Sixel
    parse it all you want, it allows **** to happen.
  18. Mike Sixel
    I doubt that was how the decision was made. Very much. How many hitters were taken between those two?
  19. Mike Sixel
    Bleep scotus. Bleep them
  20. Mike Sixel
    He knew. It was sarcasm that numbers don't mean much.... The difference, imo, is that most of these players have stuff to back up the numbers, where slama did not.
  21. Mike Sixel
    It's a good theory.... But then you have to be willing to trade top ten or so prospects away..... And sign them, and have a tiny window, since you have developed few pitchers.
  22. Mike Sixel
    I meant from AA to the Twins, my bad.... There was one RP last year, bit other than that, I think they are using AAA as a stop.
  23. Mike Sixel
    I have no idea, but this doesn't answer my question
  24. Mike Sixel
    The offense has been good since Buxton went down, and Sano came back. That's partly a coincidence, but I don't think totally. I like when they win
  25. Mike Sixel
    I hope they aren't going off tiny, hot, sample sizes, and are calling up the person that best for the context.
