Dude is living the life. Bet he wishes he was still back with Rocco and company 

I also noted he apparently threw all fastballs. 

Hmmmm

[S Bart]

I could not figure out how the Rays could sell the team without a stadium for 1.7 billion and the Twins had no takers. I am wondering if the Pohlads could be considered a modern-day Charles Comiskey.

It has been 10 years since Mike Hessman, the all time Minor League home run hitter, 433 retired at age 37, are there Any long time Minor League stars any more?

[USAFChief]

There's no explanation for that swing, Glen.

Nick Kurtz----one year of minor league baseball and just CRUSHING it....

Why can't we get lucky with a college bat like that....Sabato, Larnach, Wallner, etc....

No stadium means bidding war for public subsidies development opportunities

I like going to minor league games.

But prospects? Who gives a ****?

 

So many people treat prospect rankings like scripture and those rankings are wildly inaccurate every year. I’ve heard Trevor Plouffe say multiple times and I fully agree that the farm system is meant to supplement your major league team. Yet so many say we can’t possibly trade X prospect away, he’s ranked #20 on Baseball America!

If we could get runners on base, Twins would have more runs. 

How come the word IF is used so often during the game  ...

If this ...

Hey Royce. There are a few fans in left dying for a souvenir.

Decent innings by Ohl. Better than when he's an opener. Which I guess he won't be Thursday.

Keaschall's rookie honeymoon is over with his bat, but his glove is still sharp as ever.

Go take a look at his game log on BR, just about any MLB player will take his August stats...
