  1. I for one really like this guys name. First of all Simeon is cool. Then the rest of it is neat too. SWR. Spell it out: S W R That is unique. Or if you say out SWR together in one breath no one else in the game has anything that compares. Keep the whole name. As for SWR as a prospect in this spot? Prielipp is better. Elite and should be at #4. Prielipp #4 and right on the outside of top 100 in MLB. 70-80 healthy IP in 2023 and he will be Top10 in MLB. But SWR I think has a good shot at being a solid #4 ML SP. Rooting for him.
  2. If I was the Twins FO I would make the pick for Prielipp the overwhelming majority of the time, dependent upon who is still on the board of course. The odds of him becoming an Ace are against him but you have to take that chance as this FO. Should he be ranked this high? Maybe not. But why would you put say Varland or Miller or anyone lower ahead of him? This is a prospect ranking.
  3. I certainly don't agree with Falvey much of the time, but this team has enough pitching. Hitting, that is another subject, and will be a problem this coming season. This lineup will struggle to score runs. Big time.
  4. Nick Gordon, shown the pine in favor of guys like Taylor and Gallo. What the f.....
  5. If this is how the team views him, and actually uses him, then if I was Gordon I'd be demanding a trade out of here. If actually performing doesn't work then what will? I feel for the guy.
  6. Another guy that could soar up the draft charts is Grand Canyon OF Homer Bush JR.
  7. Hopefully someone takes Clark ahead of the Twins so they aren't tempted to. That would get them a better shot at a big time college arm too. Skenes.
  8. They do have that #34 pick so Carrigg landing there wouldn't be unthinkable. Or a guy like Teel. As for our pick at #5 I'm hoping a guy like Paul Skenes the RHP from LSU is available. He can also play the field and hit for poewr. Could be our Ohtani
  9. I'd love to have Reynolds, though there is 0% chance of it occurring. The truth is our offense is not very good. How has that been improved this offseason? By the trading of Arraez. Our everyday lineup is about a bunch of hope fors. Hope Buxton is healthy, when has he ever been. Hope Kiriloff is healthy and can hit ML pitching. Larnach hope he is healthy and can hit ML pitching. Hope Gallo is better than 2022. Hope Kepler can beat the shift. Hope........ AS far as trading with the Pirates I would like to see them go for milb C Henry Davis.
  10. I'm certain there is a ton of excitement and happiness over the return of Pagan.
  11. It was always interesting that Gagne and Smalley were swapped for each other. Along with Ron Davis.....Twins and NYY
  12. Gagne, since the question is Greatest Shortstop. Correa will not play SS like Gagne. No Gagne was never the hitter that Correa is. But Gagne could hit. He hardly ever drew a walk but he could hit. I am glad the Twins signed Correa. But honestly I don't see myself ever liking the guy. He is a cheater.
  13. Cabrera. Yes. I'd be OK with Lopez too. But not for people like Lee, Lewis, etc. Or Arraez for that matter. He would fit fine behind Gray and Mahle at #3. He'd give us great depth but he's not a top of the rotation guy. Plus you only have him for two seasons w/o an agreed upon extention. Cabrera though......
  14. Thank you. I'm glad some of these posters are not the GM. I'm not saying I wouldn't want Lopez. But not for the teams top prospects. No. Not for Arraez, he's a batting champion. Now, Edward Cabrera. That's who you discuss bigger names for.
  15. I agree on Martin. People giving up on him after one poor season is irrational. Especially since he redeemed himself very well in the Fall. As for Lewis, why can't he sustain his 2022 ML numbers? I'd be disappointed if he doesn't do close to those myself. I would agree with the OP that his injury history is "troubling."
  16. I would guess once Lewis gets back up to speed Polanco will be moved. Hopefully Jorge has a monster year and brings a huge haul. As for Martin. Many are now writing him off because of his 2022 showing. Kind of reminds me of how people felt about Gordon after his 2018 stint in AAA. Now they think Gordon's pretty good and has a bright future.
  17. But yet the state of MN voted in Keith Ellison after he beat on his Ex? As for Bauer? No. He hasn't been good enough in his career to warrant the distractions that he could/can bring. He also hasn't pitched in a season and a half. No. Lets get someone better even though the price is almost free.
  18. I agree on Cruz. Everything to gain and nothing to lose except whatever millions it would take to sign him for the year. If he is done done you just cut him loose.
  19. We've already signed Gallo. I don't know what more anybody could want.
  20. We've head that old argument for forever. Since Target opened 13 calendar years ago we've resigned Mauer, Dobnak, Polanco, Kepler, Sano and Buxton to long term contracts. Who am I missing? So few are signed, so few are worth resigning. It's a silly argument and well overused.
  21. I hope they don't mess the guy up by forcing him to develop "power". Not every player has to be a HR hitter. He's done well at legging out doubles in his career. I long for the days when a guy who could play the game of baseball was appreciated.
