feel free to comment

Justin Parker and Brandon Henderson were released last fall.

Extended Spring: Boyd, Atherton, Hurlbut, Kimes, Lockwood.

DL: Nate Roberts

Add: Koch, Jairo Rodriguez, Pettersen, Goncalves, Carter, Fuentes, Dempster, Fuentes, Nelson, Summers, Tomshaw, Wheeler

Boer - I agree that he will eventually be a back of the bullpen/closer type, but they'll let him start early in his career.

Unfortunately I don't think Dempster,Fuentes will be here at all this year, it would be there third trip bothin Beloit, which I just don't see happening.
I also don't see Cole Nelson coming to Beloit either,Nelson has been in the FSL the last 2 years, If he would have came to Beloit it would have been last year after the trade.
I can see Tomshaw coming

I also think Boyd will be in Beloit to start.

Could B.J. Hermsen start in beloit because in spring training today he pitched for Beloit?

Ooops. Wrong thread

prolly not, it was just to get him some work. Last year on the Beloit team in EX had goodrum,kepler,sano,wimmers,rosario. Which is an indication that they play guys a level up in
ST.

Nate Roberts is not moving up to Fort Myers? That seems preposterous.

Catchers will be Koch and Rodriguez will be for now. Knudson and Chapman are injured and Parker had a possible concussion. Harrison, Goodrum and Kepler will stay in extended for now and most likely going to E-Town.

Ok but I throught it was weird for him to be pitching for them this close to the season

IK what u mean, I got my hopes up last year that Sano and Rosario were going to be in Beloit because they were playing on the Beloit ST. Roster up until rosters announced....It was probably to get Hermsen a little extra work while trying to cram everyone else at the High A level. BJ went 13-8 with a 4.5 era, I really think that he starts in Ft Myers. Very Rarely do the Twins send guys to Beloit for the part of 3 seperate seasons (Lin will buck that trend this year)

Ok thanks we will wait and see

Harrison won't be in Beloit. He was drafted out of HS and will start in the rookie leagues after extended spring training.

Correct... Harrison and Boyd will begin the year in EST. They may play for E-Town, but most likely start in the GCL.

those 2 were just long shots guesses, I expect them to start in EST, i just have a small feeling that they may start in beloit.

When will they release the roster?

prolly tomorrow, if not then by Sunday....

Seth hints at a bunch of EST peeps. I am extremely curious now. I assume that means Kepler and Goodrum, but who else?

Other than the obvious ones he mentions above--Harrison and Boyd.
