Good series - I like Polanco a lot and am looking forward to see what he can do in '13.

Oh, and how old is Mejia? I couldn't find it in Part 2. Thanks.

Mejia is 20. He'll turn 21 in May.

Although few, if any, of us know where players are scheduled to be each spring, it is my understanding the Twins have a good idea where players will play. That would seem to indicate that A.J. has been told he will very likely be in Fort Myers. If he hadn't, I don't see his new wife leaving her nurses job in Rochester, MN for a new job in Naples, FLA.

I wondered about that, too, Roger, and you're probably right. On the other hand, I figure a number of players decide to make their "home" in the Ft Myers area rather than move family around every time they get moved to a new Class. If I were him, I'd have my wife get her new job in Ft Myers even if I didn't know for sure I'd be starting the season there. It's obviously his next step, even if he gets assigned to CR to start the season.
