    Everything that I've read still suggests he's on track and following the rehab schedule the Twins put him on. I don't see the need for pessimism until he's still not appearing in games two weeks from now.

    *internal screaming*

    Maybe I'm crazy, but it seems more likely to me that Rortvedt is the backup catcher in 2021 and beyond, and Jeffers gets shipped out as a major piece in a trade this summer. Hope I'm wrong!

    Let's let him play more than 25 games in the Rookie League before we label him a bust. You posted at 1:02 am. Maybe lay off the sauce next time.

    Aren't these rankings of players as prospects rather than on their ability to contribute immediately? Seems like Enlow has a fairly high ceiling and is thus deserving of the #10 spot. Thorpe is like 4 years older, and even with his late development, more of a known quantity.

    Having guys like Sands and Colina at 16-20 shows you how deep this system is. Lots to look forward to out of his group.
  7. BrianBuchanan
    man, tons of interesting guys didn't make the cut for Top 20. Should be a fun year following both the big league club and the system as a whole.
  8. BrianBuchanan
    I trust Bowden's rankings basically not at all, but always good to see praise for our top guys.

    Treinen is such an interesting case. I wonder what the market will be? Short-term, high dollar? I'd love to let The Guru (Gus Johnson) get a crack at setting him straight.

    Thrilled to see that Royce has responded to the first rough patch of his young career with a stellar AFL performance. It was a great decision to send him out West.

    http://www.startribune.com/best-of-the-bombas-raking-the-twins-top-10-home-runs-of-2019/561907511/ I very much enjoyed this recap of the Top 10 Bombas of the regular season. I'm a bit surprised Adrianza's solo shot off Verlander didn't make the cut, but I'm not sure which homer I'd take off the list. What a ride it's been.
  12. BrianBuchanan
    Wow, I had no idea his advanced metrics were so extreme... It definitely meets the eye test though. Arraez is the king of soft liners to the gaps.
  13. BrianBuchanan
    Royce is slashing.241/.297/.397 in 14 games at AA, but he's also 3.7 years below the average player age. Does his blue-chip prospect status hinge on how he starts the 2020 campaign, presuming he returns to AA? The Twins have been aggressive with him, but at some point I would hope to see another flash of his talent...
  14. BrianBuchanan
    This seems like the most reasonable answer. No harm in trying to get Polanco a few extra days off (Rocco rode him more than the other starters in the first half) and Adrianza has proven more than adequate in relieving him on a limited basis.
  15. BrianBuchanan
    I was worried about how Royce would adapt to AA (-3.7 age difference), but he seems to be holding his own so far. I suppose the real test will come when he's a bit more of a known quantity to So. League pitchers.
  16. BrianBuchanan
    Is it too soon to push Spencer Steer up to Fort Myers? He's bashing Low-A pitching at a prodigious rate (in a small sample size) after brutalizing the Appy league as a 21 y/o 2019 draftee.
  17. BrianBuchanan
    Very insightful! You can really see the difference in his swing in those clips.
  18. BrianBuchanan
    There will have to be some 40-man eligible guys moved, right? For a rebuilding team, what could a package of these guys look like? Something like Javier, Jax, and another lottery ticket seems like it should fetch a decent relief pitcher?
  19. BrianBuchanan
    It's early, but it seems like the Twins might have something in Steer. Great draft pick!
