    Well said!
  2. Mike Sixel
    I love these!
  3. Mike Sixel
    that was the head scratcher for sure. Solid game, other than the infield defense. The team looks like it is fully embracing TTO, at least on offense.
  4. Mike Sixel
    I know I'm not supposed to watch his shows anymore.....but Master of None is great so far, about 6 episodes in.
  5. Mike Sixel
    Ya. Reed looks legit
  6. Mike Sixel
    Shocking!
  7. Mike Sixel
    dammmm, to distracted by the golf and my need to go help out/work imminently to catch the obvious!
  8. Mike Sixel
    Then there is the power threesome (sigh) with back to back birdies as an entire group. What great tee shots!
  9. Mike Sixel
    In the minors, for at least one year too long, imo.

    No idea why Paxton faced Sano there, but I'm glad he did.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Great job by Rogers. So happy he was made a RP.
  12. Mike Sixel
    Disappointing.

    The not at all surprised part has to do with a lot of things, not just whatever they offered. Almost no one is signing these, that got any kind of bonus. So that's part. All of them have the potential to be much better than they were last year. so that's part. They are all pretty young, not like buying out a 27 year old. So that's part. I'm not surprised they didn't sign because of about 100 reasons. Never stated it was only about the money, but if the money was insane, they'd have signed, I'd guess. I even said as much in my first post....
  14. Mike Sixel
    UNFAIR!
  15. Mike Sixel
    What is going on out there? Is it the cold?
  16. Mike Sixel
    might need the bullpen today.....a hunch, really.
  17. Mike Sixel
    And that has what to do with my point? Nothing, actually.
  18. Mike Sixel
    Not sure how that's really relevant to if they should have said yes. Heck, 3MM total might be enough to set them up for life, they shouldn't accept that.
  19. Mike Sixel
    why can't both be true?
  20. Mike Sixel
    I'm also betting they low balled them, like with Darvish. Each of them has real money already, and each can be much better than they were last year. I'm not surprised they all said no.

    have you read the whole entire original thread, where he asks why no one criticized Punto (in direct response to me, point for point) among other things? It isn't a question....no way. It's an accusation. I'm not mad at all, I'm trying to: 1. Understand how criticizing a guy that makes mistakes college players don't anymore is even questioned as racially motivated. 2. Help you understand how, when someone replies to your posts point for point, that it is a direct response, and how that might make someone feel accused. 3. Help people get Chief's point....in this instance, raising race distracts from the power of actual racist behavior in teh sport and its fandom. IMO. 4. Help you realize that me continuing this dicsussion, is, actually, a discussion of race, and not me all made/angry/defensive, whatever else you are saying I am.
  22. Mike Sixel
    13? can't wait to see what happened. I just missed it, while eating.
  23. Mike Sixel
    I totally get that part, Brock. It is hard to talk about w/o feeling like one side or hte other is calling people racist..... Can you understand, or not, how the question (about a guy everyone here agrees makes intersting decisions), might be taken as an accusation? And sure, everyone has feelings of all kinds in their life they aren't proud of, the good people inspect those and change their behavior over time. Everyone.
  24. Mike Sixel
    this makes a ton of sense. Also, how the minor league options look....any decision on the 24* man roster has to be in context. *on this team, anyway.
  25. Mike Sixel
    It's not the "mere mention of race", it is this 100% specific example. Like, somehow, you can't comment on Rosario w/o it being about race, which is the implication in the post that started this whole conversation. I've accused MLB players of being racist for how they treat/talk about latin (right word?) players on this very site, last year I think it was. But this is about this 100% specific example, not about "mere mention of race".
