Berrios, Buxton Among First Round of Cuts

Oliveros all spring

 

0 ERA

no hits

27 K/9

only 1 walk and 1 HBP

 

Dude was lights out.

I need more than five batters faced before I start making judgments, myself.

I think what we're seeing here is Molitors approach differing from Gardy's.  Molly talks to these guys and I would imagine explained his reasoning.  He most likely wants to see more of those left to have a better handle on who to take north.  In the same time those sent down will get more playing time there, and that word gets back to Molly too. 

Did anyone see minor league games today?

I was there. Pictures to facebook and twitter shortly.

Great photos and thank you.    Were games exciting?  I saw Stewart and Gonsalves pitching in photos.

Amazing to see how some of these kids age in just a few years.  Beards and Muscles.  They are getting into their "Man" bodies as I watch these photos.  The future is bright.

Ditto. I thought he'd be around for awhile longer.

I don't know guys.  He only has 2 HR in 10 at bats.  He needs to pick it up if he wants to hang up with the big club.

Twins have many decisions to make.  I can understand that Molitor would only want players around who have a chance of making the club.  You only have so many inning and Ab's to parcel out. 

Yes Sano had 2 HRs but that's the only hits and combined with the strike outs, recovering from surgery, and no one expecting him to be ready, I'm ok with the option. We need to see others get their at bats and sort out who actually makes the team not watch a prospect.

My only disappointment in ALL the cuts was Oliveros but that bullpen is gonna be crowded with starters we can't option out especially is May and/or Meyer make the squad.
