Other than blind pessimism, there's nothing to suggest Sano won't be up before 9/14.

Buxton's a little more of an unknown because he's played so few games on the professional level. But if you've...

Yep, getting a post presence was necessary this draft.

It was the right pick. You have to take a shot with #4. Talent like Stewart does not come around often.

Then who does it benefit? You believe the Twins thought it unlikely thatanother team would pick him up? Okay. So maybe the organization did want him in the fold. Or maybe the Twins thought it likely...

I suggest some should look at this from the perspective of the Twins making perhaps not the best move from their perspective, but undoubtedly the best move for Joe Benson. To give the young man a...

This was the right move for all parties. Benson was broken in the Twins organization; he was not going to realize his potential in that environment. It was time to let him go and wish him luck. All...

Hard to ignore Kris Bryant making both the power and strike-zone judgment lists. Pretty good combo.

I'd be very surprised to see Arcia moved at this point. It doesn't make sense. He's got a big league bat and he's helping the team win. Alternatively, it may be a good time to send down Hicks. He's...

Great info, guys. I look forward to heading down there this summer.

That surprised me as well.

The problem is that if you trade the farm for one year of Josh Johnson, you haven't stopped the bleeding. You've simply postponed it for one season, after which you'll be worse off than you were...

I would trade Span/Revere and a prospect for Johnson even if the chance of getting him to sign an extension is slim to none.

The Twins need to stop the bleeding. And I don't think they're that far...

I'm referring to this year. I'm curious why you think the Twins would add Florimon to the 40-man before Sept. 1st. With the summer Hicks is having, I would think they'd want to give him a taste of...

A move that's good for Valencia and the Twins. I wish him luck and hope gets a shot in Boston.

So, is Hicks going to get Valencia's 40-man spot?

Tough spot for Valencia - tough game in general. I hope he gets another chance, although it doesn't seem likely that it'll be in Minnesota.

It's a stretch to put Revere's year on Tom Brunansky. Revere's had success at every level he's played at professionally. His one mediocre year was his rookie year - not all that out of the ordinary. ...

Some fair points. My reply is that your conclusion is only demonstrable if you assume the destinies of Plouffe and Doumit and assume that Parmelee does not improve on his Spring 2012 form. You may be...

Being that we're prognosticating on future events, I'm comfortable making assumptions and statements based on belief. For instance, I'm assuming Span will not fall into a tailspin and end up with...

The sample size is much greater than 92 ABs. Without even looking at his impressive minor league numbers, he got 400+ ABs as a 23-year-old rookie. Now, the numbers weren't all that great, but they...

I didn't read Souhan's article, but I agree with his premise as stated on this thread.

The Twins do have good outfield depth to replace Denard Span.

Of course, that statement makes certain...

I think he'd have to be doing a lot worse than he is to make that move.

I think somebody is confusing the MLB draft with those in the NFL and/or NBA.

Ben Revere

Doubtful. He plays better than his contract and is more productive than the reasonable potential of 95% of prospects.

That said, anything's possible. A big market team could offer something too...

I wish him luck. He seemed like a good guy and had an awful thing happen to him this year. The Padres might be the spot.
