Whammy Verified Member Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 Would love to see Buxton and Walker paired in OF together again. Use both sub AA spots on these two guys. You can always monitor workload with Taxi squad roster fillers. Who cares about any possible failure? Both are strong enough to bounce back and grow from the experience. Congrats to ABW on his 100 RBIs and 26th HR.Walker is Minors' first to century mark | MiLB.com News | The Official Site of Minor League BaseballI like the idea of Walker since his rap seems to be that he is too low for his age, but my worry is that he'll get eaten up by they more experienced AA and AAA players in that league. I wish he would've at least sniffed A+ this year.

He seems like a head-down worker who is focused on making it to the MLB roster and nothing else.
Seth Stohs Site Manager Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 Here are my guesses, based on pretty much nothing because it's not a very predictable thing. Generally 3-4 are easy to pick, and a couple others are surprises. So, my 7 will be (and there may be six): 1.) Byron Buxton, 2.) Pat Dean, 3.) Dakota Watts, 4.) Alex Meyer, 5.) Kyle Knudson 6.) Aaron Hicks, 7.) Levi Michael
Thrylos Old-Timey Member Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 The Twins just do not have many non-Latin American position player prospects, so hard to pick position players for the AFL. Here is what I think: Alex Meyer Pat Dean (likely one starter) Matt KochJames BeresfordKyle Knudson/Dan Rohlfing (maybe) AJ AchterMatt HauserZach Jones
diehardtwinsfan Old-Timey Member Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Rosario, if I remember correctly, is from Puerto Rico, so he'd be eligible, would he not?
drjim Provisional Member Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 Wow. Loaded roster. And several great prospects throughout the game.

Shane Wahl Verified Member Posted August 27, 2013 Author Posted August 27, 2013 Here's to sucking at predicting this and being happy with a loaded 7.
