    i figured the Twins were going to take Cederoth or Lemond. Lemond seems to have more upside though..
  2. rickyhawaii
    would be thrilled if they get Monte Harrison
  3. rickyhawaii
    Former Twin Blayne Weller was pitching for South Bend..
  4. rickyhawaii
    any thoughts on Alex Jackson? he'll probably need a standout season to push him as a viable top 5 guy. If the Twins draft him, should probably let him give up catching and have him be a power bat. Catching has more value, but a potential 30hr OF needs to be considered..

    I wonder if the Twins have interest in Brian Matusz, and trying to re-work him as a starter?

    love this signing, and Diaz is one of the top hitting prospects in this class. Hopefully he can develop into a legit power hitting RF or 1b. The plus side also is they can still sign some other good prospects. Haven't seen Mayky Perez or Jen-Ho Tseng signed yet. Hoping the Twins get one of those guys. The Dutch 3b seems interesting as well.

    Also Twins signed Chih-Wei Hu a top Taiwan pitching prospect. Wang-Wei Lin was also in the system for a while. can only imagine they've scouted Tseng and have some interest

    Javier Baez 4hr's.. Baez is a beast, needs plate discipline though
  9. rickyhawaii
    Twins have been lacking a center since loek van mil
  10. rickyhawaii
    good pick on Gonsalves, good draft so far.
  11. rickyhawaii
    i would imagine some team will take Denney before the Twins ,but i'm hoping for him. Boldt would also be great.
  12. rickyhawaii
    Stewart can always pull a David Shinskie or Brandon Weeden if baseball doesn't work out..
  13. rickyhawaii
    Andrew Susac is another Giants prospect that is interesting. Catcher with pretty good numbers. He'll probably be blocked by Posey. Giants would be good trade partners.
  14. rickyhawaii
    isn't Cody Reed a junior college guy?
  15. rickyhawaii
    Jordan Paroubeck, HS OF, switch hitter with good power potential. Maybe Chris Okey might last till 43,another top HS catcher.
  16. rickyhawaii
    will be interesting to see what Malinowski will do this year. Sam Gibbons, Chi-Wei Hu, and Lewis Thorpe also.
  17. rickyhawaii
    Shore seems pretty locked in to go to Florida. MLBtraderumors.com had a post that the Twins won't be drafting Shore in the second round. Maybe Shore will fall past the 10th round and the Twins can draft and try to sign like Malinowski. One prospect i like but haven't heard too much ravings about is HS OF Jordan Paroubeck. He's got really quick bat speed, he's a switch hitter and his swing looks the same from both sides of the plate. His dad and Barry Bonds were HS buddies and Paroubeck's gotten private lessons..(hopefully not on juicing). Paroubeck is committed to fresno state. he's on Mayo's top 100

    i'd like it if those were the picks. i'd like the Dozier pick. he could be the real bull Dozier.. i think Edwin Diaz may go sooner but i'd take him in third.. Knapp would also be a good pick. other guys i hope they would get are Justin Williams, think he's an LSU commit though.., and Jan Hernandez. Brian Navarreto is also another guy, good pop time and raw power for a catcher..
  19. rickyhawaii
    Gotta be happy for Angel Morales. he's been pretty much written off, but still has some potential. he's really good at hitting lefties. his defense and arm are still strong. Could be a possible four OFer or good bench guy..i hope they keep him around for a couple more years.
  20. rickyhawaii
    Frazier's bat speed looks crazy fast. obviously seeing it through videos, i'm not sure if it's truly faster than most other players bat speeds. from the video that i seen i like Frazier, but he does have drawbacks. he's listed as 6ft in most posts i've seen on him. the major league projection is just hard to figure out. 6ft could be plenty tall enough though... maybe Frazier's just exceptionally talented. i like Frazier over Meadows, but Meadows has a little more projection. right now i'd prefer Stewart, the twins need to bring their A game to the negotiation tables though. I don't think Stewart would pass up the money, but if his heart is set in playing football can't fault him.. isn't Jason Bay near ginger enough? Mark Mcgwire was a ginger..
  21. rickyhawaii
    lewin diaz looks like he'd be a good prospect. i wonder if the twins have much interest in Jen-ho Tseng from Taiwan. the twins have been a little active in that market. Kuo hua lo and Chih wei hu
  22. rickyhawaii
    zach jones is dominating. imagine he's just blowing the fastball past everyone. he's raising his prospect status though. could be the next Crain.. Daniel Ortiz is also doing well. hopefully he can be consistent. he seems to be a streaky player.
  23. rickyhawaii
    futuristic uniform was epic.. as a gag the twins should bring them back for a game. Huskey running into the wall seems so like the 90's twins.. was the half mil considered a lot at the time or was that near minimum? that doesn't seem like Huskey was that bad of a signing at the time though. Especially since they were able to flip him for a prospect. Butch Huskey sounds like he was a made up character in the old Ken Griffey game on SNES.
  24. rickyhawaii
    I like the Bryan Augenstein signing.. he was a good prospect for the DBacks awhile back.
  25. rickyhawaii
    Any chance Twins can pluck Billingsley? I guess he's having some elbow issues, but that could mean the Twins would have to give less to get him.. I'm not sure what it would take to acquire him especially since the Dodgers seem to be spending on all of their weaknesses. I would hate trading Rosario since he could be a great player.
