    No, he's saying, and I'm saying, is that he's 29 and it is not LIKELY that he's good. You do realize his BABIP is twice what is realistic, in spring training, right? I think people here confuse likely with "certain" a lot. Brock isn't certain of anything, but he's talking about what is likely/probably.
  2. Mike Sixel
    I have no idea if they are right or not, I don't comment on them really at all, other than to point out teams are using RPs more in general. But it wouldn't shock me if those numbers were all correct. Less than sixty pitchers cracked 160 innings last year.

    LoMo 12:32 Will Logan Morrison have a similar season in the power numbers dept to 2017? Travis Sawchik 12:33 I do think he's found a new a level, but 38 HRs are going to be tough to reach again https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/travis-sawchik-fangraphs-chat-54/
  4. Mike Sixel
    Hard to say. Not many pitchers pitch a lot of innings anymore....for many reasons. To me, this points out how RPs are becoming more important, as much as anything else.
  5. Mike Sixel
    I do agree years five and six will be interesting. I like him for the next four, so it's a matter of how much those first four years are worth, in terms of the cost of the last two.
  6. Mike Sixel
    What do you base that on, exactly? Because it's not close to one of hte ten worst this year, or next....
  7. Mike Sixel
    No shocks here... https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2018-positional-power-rankings-starting-rotation-16-30/

    They also brought back their mediocre kicker for league minimum. Yay?
  9. Mike Sixel
    I liked everything about that.

    On this team he's a backup, or trade bait, or backup. Are we not supposed to have this conversation in context of the Twins? I am aware of KATOH thinks (and man we are going to miss seeing KATOH, sigh), but that's not in context of his value to the Twins.
  11. Mike Sixel
    If only they had five number threes....
  12. Mike Sixel
    Wanting a better backup has nothing to do with him getting more AAA at bats, unless people think he is working on things and can become a legit starter here somehow. Otherwise he only holds value as a backup here, or in a trade somehow.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Totally sustainable.... Not a small sample size at all compared to over seven years of earlier data....
  14. Mike Sixel
    Why? He's a backup as long as the big three are here, and there are guys on his tail.
  15. Mike Sixel
    Confused.
  16. Mike Sixel
    I try very hard to believe players when they say they are hurting, so I won't say this stretches credulity. Good luck in your healing!
  17. Mike Sixel
    It's random, folks. I mean, does anyone think James Shields is the best pitcher on his staff?
  18. Mike Sixel
    If they knew he had a pattern of behaviour, they should shut up an let it continue? Note I said if. That is your argument? Team over morals?
  19. Mike Sixel
    IF a player believes something bad happened, he should just shut up and let it go? Is that your stance? If so, that's how bad things keep happening. If not, in not sure what you are saying.
  20. Mike Sixel
    because he's older and never really been good in the minors. A few spring training ABs don't really mean all that much.
  21. Mike Sixel
    No offense taken!
  22. Mike Sixel
    https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2018-positional-power-rankings-designated-hitter/ I'm going with the over here.
  23. Mike Sixel
    I just want names on the backs, so when I happen to catch a random game in a bar or brewery or whatever, I have some idea who is up/playing. Does any other sport not have names there? (professional....)
  24. Mike Sixel
    Agreed, and I've said as much on this thread, I think, or the other one.
  25. Mike Sixel
    luck you !
