Puk was perfect. And cost almost nothing. 

Very disappointing.

De Los Santos isn't nothing though.  The dude is 21 and has crushed AA and is tossing up a .926 OPS against AAA pitching.  He is similar to CES, but younger, walks more and strikes out less at a year and half younger.  I get using CES isn't great at the current moment, but it was a decent piece when the Twins dealt him.

I'm not sure who would ne a comp, but it's certainly not almost nothing,.

I place little to no value on 99 percent of prospects. 98 percent of these 99 percent never make any significant impact, and trying to predict which of the 99 percent end up being the 2 percent is damn near impossible. 

I would be very reluctant to trade Walker Jenkins. Anyone else, for proven MLB talent? Do it. 

You'll have another De Los Santos or 3 next year.

Puk pitched his second scoreless inning for the Dbacks today, striking out the side to preserve a 2-1 7th inning lead.

Deyvison De Los Santos went 2-for-4 today, lowering his OPS for AAA Jacksonville to 1.357.  😀

I don't see that as relevant to the Twins chances of winning a WS.

Correct.

Puk is up to 13 innings for AZ (now 18 games over .500), 1 run allowed. 

0.69 ERA, 0.69 WHIP

 

good thing we didn't let go of a couple anonymous A ballers for that

Miami has really had a tough time in trades. Whomever is responsible for evaluation of the prospects in other orgs needs a new job.
