    The Twins have made huge mistakes the past few years by stalling the call up of their young players. The conservative, step by step approach they have taken made sense when they had a team that won games. But after several 90+ loss seasons they had the ability to "rush" some of these prospects and see what they could do. Instead they populated the roster with a bunch of mediocrities that will never be anything more. Look at the 1982 Twins season. That should have been the model for the rebuild from the start. Some prospects fail: for example the "original" centerfielder of the Twins 80 rebuild was Jim Eisenreich. When he unfortunately did not work out we just found someone else named Kirby Puckett. But where would the Twins be if they would have waited another year or two on Eisenrreich, or Lenny Faedo, or several other prospects? That would have delayed Puckett's emergence and the World Series championships of 87 and 91 might never have happened.

    I think it should be either Manaea or Braden Shipley. I think Manaea has the higher upside. I have to admit the injury problems concern me a bit on him as we have been burned on them in the past. Shipley is a nice pitcher but does not project to be a top of the rotation guy. Kohl Stewart is intriguing, but probably expensive, and high school pitchers carry significant risk.
