A paralogical statement based solely on emotion.

Is he Major League Pitching Ready like Hicks, Larnach, Sano?

NO, such a silly rumor is illogical unless the speaker of the rumor does not like the person he spreads the rumor about . When did he say anything about center field, either way?

Zulgad is full of ejecta. Max Kepler, the German Baseball Player Who Spurned Soccer for MLB Dreams https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2568511-max-kepler-the-german-baseball-player-who-spurned-soccer-for-mlb-dreams The most middling players in Europe's top soccer leagues are guaranteed transformational wealth, supermodel girlfriends and unrivaled celebrity. A sea of people stacked five deep around the entrance to a nightclub will part ways for one of its soccer stars to enter. Restaurant reservations will be honored—so long as a player doesn't show up unannounced. It's a utopia for most European men that few get to enjoy and nearly all envy. And most find out if they've won this genetic lottery before their teenage years. While the offer of a scholarship to a prepubescent seventh-grader makes the college football faithful gasp in this country, European professional clubs already have snagged soccer phenoms by that age to play in their youth academies. So coveted is the opportunity to be selected into the youth academy of a known professional club that children around Europe move great distances for the chance. Max Kepler was fortunate to be one of the few. And one of the fewer who didn't even have to move. In his hometown of Berlin, he was a goalie for the youth academy of Hertha BSC, one of the storied clubs in Germany's famed Bundesliga. Hertha BSC is known for graduating youth talent to top leagues across Europe. Kepler was thought to be so athletic he even played some attacking positions as a reserve. In his early teens, Kepler was a prodigy. Then, suddenly, he veered off the path. If he lived in any number of other countries, the idea of abandoning soccer wouldn't inspire shock. Most would understand that a number of sports would suit someone as athletically gifted as Kepler. But not in Europe. Especially not in Germany, where other athletic endeavors are barely given a passing glance. The move was as much a head-scratcher to his envious classmates as it was to his Polish-born father....

In fantasy baseball.

How well the Twins did against the Yankees dtermined how well they would do early this season; I figure how well they do in the remaining games against the Phillies, will show how the rest of the season goes.

It would have been the same thing, only one week later.

Yes and very few make it to the bigs and a tiny protion are above league average. All bring up so and so because he will make the team better, seems to be based on posters looking at them like a father figure: My new boy is better than the your old boy.

Only if the one he is throwing to does not have to move to catch the ball; time will tell, if not this year, next spring.

So you are saying Saint fans are laut drunks?

Well, they both draw walks .

Bottm line, owners are there to make money, losing teams do not make money. Saints are no different than the Pohlads and Twins.

The Twins now have a minority ownership stake in the Saints, Does Winning Matter? Fans and front offices alike have long questioned whether winning at the minor league level has any effect on a player’s career and have failed to come to a consensus. Some say that winning in the minors is just for pride’s sake and causes no tangible change. Others insist that winning is enormously important. Josh Norris explored this very topic a little more than a year ago and heard some really intriguing feedback. We polled several front office members for their thoughts and received answers ranging from “no significant impact” to “winning definitely matters”. Yet despite the disagreement, one thing everyone mentioned was that the role of the minor leagues is a tricky balance between player development and winning. A baseball operations analyst with an AL team said: “You’ll get a lot of different answers. I think that it does (matter), especially at the higher levels. The difficulty is, a lot of successful Double-A or Triple-A teams aren’t always prospect laden. A lot of Quad-A types populate winning high-minors clubs. So not over-prioritizing winning at the expense of having youth at those levels, even if they struggle a little, is the balance.” https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/quantifying-the-effects-of-winning-in-the-minor-leagues-on-player-development/

To you.

Only to you. Gents running the Saints want to win just as much as the gents running the Twins, so best players play where they play and Larnach isn't it.

Better first base skills?

His big fielding improvement is he is now aware of other players in the field going for a ball shown by his sliding for a catch twice recently. Last year three times, I saw,, he was a charging bull without regard to other players going for the ball and if they had seen him and jumped out of the way he would have rammed into them probably putting one on the IL list. Some one took him aside and he listened.

No kidding, really!👺

On fantasy island maybe.

My father liked baseball, still had his glove when he played little town ball in the town, general store and creamery, he grew up in. (towns of less than 100 people used to be common in Central Minn). He spoke about baseball, so I heard of big names long before the Twins came to town. My friend and I walked down town to the theater to watch Safe at Home so I was a Mickey Mantle fan before I knew any Twins names but in the fall of 1962 Lenny Green was at a dinner at out church and I shook his hand. I was already a baseball fan but after than I was huge Twins fan and still am.

Lewis has played a total of 38 games in the Bigs; hot bats have come and gone, HUGE X factor.

Then the Twins absolutely need an quality fielding Second Baseman to take Julien's place at the end of close game to replace Juliens iron glove.

Right, why not then ,just dump the whole current Twins team and replace them with the current Saints, Good Grief.

Some thing is very wrong with Gallo; strike outs with a a fair number of foul balls, means he is hitting the ball but his are simple whiffs on pitches that are in the middle of the strike zone. Hopefully Baldelli has taken him aside to see why .

Bah to Ramone, this is what they need as so many here want to see kids brought up: This 12 Year Old Kid Hit The Farthest Home Run In Baseball History Yesterday https://thespun.com/more/top-stories/fans-are-in-awe-of-12-year-old-baseball-players-massive-home-run Henry, who is listed at 5-foot-10, 215 pounds according to his Perfect Game profile, cleared the batter's eye in center field, hitting the ball well past the fence stationed 275 feet from home plate. We don't have an exact measurement on the homer, but it had to be pushing 400 feet. Henry's titanic blast has had the baseball world buzzing since last night. "12 year old Leyland Henry Jr has some crazy power," said the Barstool Baseball Twitter account. "Y’all see what Leyland Henry Jr is doing? HE'S 12," one fan said. "Leyland Henry Jr. will break the MLB career HR record in 2049," added another fan. "Leyland Henry. Remember the name," chimed in the Baseball Lifestyle Twitter account. A fifth commenter added that Henry has "taken the world by storm." That will happen when you hit the ball MLB-level distances as a pre-teen. Hopefully Henry has a bright future ahead of him on the diamond.
