I had originally commented on my skepticism on his post (now edited). I think that was a mistake. This can be the thread to question whether the Twins management should factor in spring stats as part of their decision making process. There is no need to carry on the same argument in multiple threads.Quote:

The scouts and coaches will be looking for far more than I can see. They will know things about a player I cannot glean from the stats. But a hitter who has 2 hits in 30 at bats with 20 strikeouts needs more work before joining the team heading north.
I will promise, my brothers, not to quote them endlessly.
I share you view on this, my brother. It has been a long, bleak winter, baseball-wise, and I desperately need to start seeing some box scores.Quote:
