Of all the things the Twins need to add to this team, a closer is at or near the bottom of the list. The fact that there's even consideration to bringing him back for 6 million dollars is depressing.
-
I'd much rather see Perkins be the 7th, 8th inning guy who can come in and calm things down. I have little to no faith in Burton repeating his 2012 season and it's not like there's a gaggle of quality arms in the pen to step up and fill the set-up role. But I guess who really cares, 96 losses or 98?

I'm just counting down the days till he's gone...14 million can be spent better places then a dizzy 1B. -
The fact that the last 2 winners of this illustrious award have been Liam Hendriks and BJ Hermsen, makes me hate this organization even more.

You rank your top 1000 players of however many you rank and cross out names as you go. Whenever your turn is up you draft the best player on your board...were not reinventing the wheel here, this isn't rocket science here. Take the best...worry about here and how quick they'll get to the majors later.
-
Jesus titty-****ing Christ man, what I'm arguing about is this idea that you lock into a arm hell or high water in the first round. I don't know or care about the bust probobility of Appel vs. Buxton and I don't think it matters one bit. The Twins are in a postion that adding high ceiling talent (no matter the position) should be goal number 1. Locking yourself into a certain position is a foolish way to rebuild a system.
-
You realize that Appel, Zimmer, Gausmen were good prospects, but nothing that no Twins fan should cry over not drafting. They were the best of a group of medicore arms in a weak draft. Zeroing in on a arm hell of high water is a dumb way for any team to draft let alone one that's rebuilding. The Twins have alot of holes beyond the rotation and middle infield, so if it's all about talent you take best player and Buxton has if not the, one of the highest ceilings in this draft.
-
I don't know, that's for the Twins to worry about. All I know is if the best player on the board when the Twins draft are toolsy high school kids for the next decade and they take them....I won't give a **** cause it's the right game plan. But locking yourself into taking an arm (like Appel or any of the highly ranked arms in this last draft or 2013) is a mistake.
-
If the best player is gonna monster ceiling high school outfielder I would have no problem taking him. Lets not fool ourselfs into thinking the Twins are gonna compete anytime soon, load up the system with as many high ceiling players as you can. NTM you can find arms outside of the first round.

bpa!!!!!
-
might want to learn his actual name if you're going to pimp him. Sorry, didn't know you couldn't talk a kid up cause his name is spelt stupid.
-
Ryan Stanek or nothing!!

Still love baseball and whenever it's on I watch. But I can't watch a Twins right now, it's just such a bad brand of baseball it's damn near unwatchable. Whatever the ESPN or MLBTV game is I watch, but I havn't watched a full Twins game since the last time I was at TF in May.
-
I don't pay much attention to raw athletic kids numbers the first couple years. You just look for small improvements and I think Niko showed plenty repeating Etown.
-
I don't think the Twins are in a position to turn down any functioning arm right now.
-
Counting that Span's value is pretty low, I fually expect the Twins to swing some BS trade that bring back a MLB ready prospect like Liam who can't break 90mph.
-
At no part was I ever invested in this ratty-ass team. Bad start, average middle and once again another dog sh*t ending to a season. More important things in life.

This thread is so loose butthole.

Someone is not quite understanding peoples frustration in this thread?

Ploufee has been worthless since July. -
Someone thinks there's Johan Santana's and Dan Uggla's loading up the Rule 5 draft.
-
This is what it's come to...Anthony ****ing Slama.

Colter Bean V2.0

Should have just let the Dodgers have Morneau for nothing. Money to spend on pitching and opens the door for Parm.
-
Extend high-upside "prospect" Morneau today?
DPJ replied to Willihammer's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
40 HR, 100BB and stays healthy every season...that has no value at all.
