Yeah, Deibinson Romero is playing well for Rochester at this point, so you wouldn't want to mess that up. I agree with those above that point out the adjustment period, and for him to go through that in the AAA playoffs isn't fair to him or his teammates. Of course, he could come up and mash, but no need. Now, Rosario, it might make more sense, though James Beresford has done a very nice job for the Red Wings too.

I'd agree with that. Neither is a top prospect. I've had Darnell as high as maybe 22 on a prospect list. Dean was somewhere around there, but hasn't been on one of my Top 50 lists for probably more than a year. I have never had Andrew Albers on a top 50 list either. Duensing throws harder. (hits 94 at times out of the bullpen) Like Duensing, they were both drafted after three years in college; Dean and Duensing in the 3rd round, Darnell in the 6th round. They're left handed. They're at least intriguing.

I think Jake Mauer is and should be considered a potential manager, and Joe's spot on the roster has nothing to do with that, good or bad. The guy knows baseball, inside and out. As important, he gets people. He brings people together. He is very smart. He's got the personality and temperament necessary. he's impressive. I can see him doing like TK and Gardy though, starting out as the 3B coach in the next couple of years before taking over.

It's possible last night will be the best performance of his career even if he pitches for a decade in the big leagues. That was a tremendous performance. It's one of those things... Scouts, velocity, etc., tell us that logically, he's not going to be a long-term solution at all. That's the realist in me. However, we saw last night what could make him successful. That is, he had good control. He got ahead. He mixed speed tremendously. There are a lot of pitchers that are successful between 89-91. There are a lot of pitchers who are not successful despite 95-97. But that pitch speed difference gives hope. Three good pitches, ability to throw those three pitches at different speeds, good control, works fast, etc. Because he's not going to strike out many, he will have those games where the grounders go through the infield, and the bloopers land and eventually one is squared up. The other thing... he's only 27. Is he too old to be considered a prospect? Sure. Does that mean he can't pitch in the big leagues? No. He could pitch 12-15 years. Same with Colabello? What if you get three good seasons from them at league minimum? Tremendous value in that. What about Doug Bernier? His glove is tremendous! What if he's the #2 utility infielder for the Twins for 3 years, providing great defense and enough offense at league minimum. Likely? Maybe not. Possible? Sure.

Yeah, that's pretty funny!

I never had a big problem with signing Kevin Correia, though I never understood the need for the second year. That said, he's on a bad run now, and he was on a good run early, and it'll all even itself out to something like a 4.50-4.90 ERA. On a horrible team, whose bullpen is used so much, the fact that he is on pace to hit 180-190 innings this year makes him worth that $5 million. Again, don't get the second year, but for one year, the deal is fine.

I prefer "inexpensive." Ha! I actually think they've done well with the bullpen. I don't think it's an area you want to spend very much on. You can get guys like Burton and Fien in minor league deals. Guys like Perkins and Swarzak and Duensing (to lesser degree early) were failed starters. And, bullpen pitchers tend to be kind of streaky, from year to year, and sometimes month to month. That's not to say it's not an immensely valuable role on a team or in a game, as we've seen.

No, he's pitched in 4-5 games for the GCL Twins so far. I don't think any have been over 1 inning to this point though.

I guess he could, but he's still so young. At this point, it would be for maybe three starts, so I don't know that there's a benefit. I might just leave him and let him continue what he's doing.

I would have loved to have seen him get a chance, but I really thought it was the right decision at the time. Maybe the PA for Hosmer, with four straight balls, was just an anomaly, but he looked like he was done. There was some cushion, so if Butler would have homered off of him, he still have a 4-run lead, but I felt it was far enough. Fortunately Fien got the DP ball two batters later to maintain the shutout.

When you’ve followed the Minnesota Twins farm system for as long as I have, you can’t help but root for the underdog. It’s easy to be a fan of Miguel Sano, Byron Buxton and other top prospects, no question about that. But the fun part of following the farm system, for me at least, is that there is no one way to the big leagues. There are many different paths. Andrew Albers is the newest example of a guy who didn’t exactly make a direct trip through the minors to the big leagues. What a story! He is the third player to debut with the Twins this season after spending time in independent baseball. It’s about the Doug Bernier’s, a 33-year-old who already had a cup of coffee, but he wants to keep playing. It’s about Tommy Watkins, who spent so many years in the Twins farm system, usually as his team’s 24th or 25th man, and eventually getting to the big leagues. Chris Heintz is another example. That’s what these reports are about. It’s recognizing the players who are working every day in an attempt to get to the big leagues or to get back to the big leagues. It’s about the first round picks, the 40th round picks, the undrafted, the sure-things and the long-shots. Before we start with the updates from Tuesday’s game, check out this Get to Know ‘Em video by the Elizabethton Twins: [video=youtube;pd4611I4ZK0] Check out what else happened in the Twins Minor League system on Tuesday: Rochester 6, Durham 4 Box Score Scott Diamond reported to Rochester and made his first appearance since being optioned last week. The left gave up just three hits over six innings. However, he gave up four runs, thanks in large part to four walks, and the fact that one of those hits was a grand slam. He struck out three. Aaron Thompson came in and gave up two hits and a walk in 1.1 innings. Cody Eppley came on and got an out. Edgar Ibarra got the final out of the eighth, but not before walking two. He started the ninth inning too, but he walked the first two batters. AJ Achter came on and recorded his first AAA Save. He walked one and struck out two. Jeff Clement was the team’s player of the week, and his streak continued on Tuesday. He went 3-5 with his 18th double and 15th home run. James Beresford was 2-4 with a double, his third with the Wings. Eduardo Escobar hit his first home run. Deibinson Romero went 2-4. Josh Willingham went 0-3 in his time. He was replaced by Eric Farris who went 2-2. New Britain 13, Erie 6 Box Score It’s always a fun day when you score 13 runs, but a lot of players contributed to that offense. Miguel Sano went 3-5 with his eighth double, his 11th AA home run, and three RBI. It was his 27th total home run of the season. Danny Santana went 2-5 with a walk, his 20th double and his 23rd stolen base. Eddie Rosario went 2-6 with his third triple. Reynaldo Rodriguez went 2-5 with his 25th double. Dan Rohlfing was 2-5 with three RBI. Jordan Parraz was 2-5. Wilkin Ramirez went 3-3 with a walk and his first double. [ATTACH=CONFIG]5132[/ATTACH] Matt Summers was the pitcher of the month for July. That earned him a promotion to the Rock Cats. He started and gave up two runs on four hits in six innings. He walked three and struck out three. Blake Martin came on and was charged with two unearned runs on two hits and a walk. He recorded just two outs before he was replaced by Daniel Turpen. He gave up two runs on two hits over the final 2.1 innings. Ft. Myers Miracle The Miracle played 20 straight days before getting on off day on Tuesday. Cedar Rapids 2, Quad Cities 7 Box Score The Kernels’ got Mark Appel’d on this night. They got Carlos Correa’d all weekend. Starting with the #1 overall pick of the 2012 draft, Correa went 12-18 in the four game series. Appel started on Tuesday night and grabbed his first professional win. He went five innings. He gave up two earned runs on two hits. He walked one and struck out two. He, and the River Bats bullpen, limited the Kernels to just four hits. Joel Licon drove in two runs with a single. Jorge Polanco doubled for the 27th time. Josue Montanez drew the short straw to pitch against Appel. The left-hander gave up five runs on five hits. He walked none and struck out five in seven innings. Consider that Quad Cities did not leave a runner on base the whole game. Dallas Gallant got the next five outs, but not before allowing two runs (1 Earned) on two hits. Brandon Bixler got the final out, but not before giving up two hits. Game 1 - Elizabethton 2, Johnson City 4 Box Score The E-Twins bats have been pretty poor in 2013. In game one, the team recorded just four hits. Tanner Vavra was 1-2 with a walk. Josh Burris started. He gave up four runs on three hits in 5.1 innings. He walked five and struck out seven. Aaron Slegers came on and gave up two hits, but no runs, in 1.2 innings. He struck out three. Game 2 - Elizabethton 1, Johnson City 4 Box Score It was more of the same in game two. The E-Twins managed just three hits. Zach Granite went 1-2 with a walk. Yorman Landa started and went jut four innings. He gave up three runs (1 earned) on four hits and three walks. He struck out three. Andrew Ferreira came on and gave up one run on one hits over two innings. He struck out two. Carson Goldsmith struck out two in a scoreless final inning. GCL Twins 8, GCL Rays 2 Box Score Lewis Thorpe has been as good, or better, than advertised. The lefty from Australia, who signed just a year ago, worked the first five innings. He gave up two unearned runs on four hits and a walk in five innings .He struck out eight. Thorpe this season has been tremendous. In 32.2 innings, he has walked three and struck out 46. He was replaced by Seth Wagner, the Twins 39th round draft pick in June of out high school. He made his professional debut and struck out one in a scoreless inning. Luke Bard came on and gave up one hit and struck one out in his inning. Josh Guyer gave up a hit, but he struck out three in his inning. Reyson Zoquiel walked one and struck out one in his inning. Lots of GCL Twins had one hit, but Adonis Pacheco was the only one that had two hits. The team had just six total hits. Engelb Vielma had the lone extra base hit, his second double. The team was helped by eight walks. Jason Kanzler did his job as the leadoff man. He got on with a single and also walked twice. Will Hurt and Brian Navarreto also walked twice. Hurt stole his fifth base while Zach Larson stole his ninth. Thanks for checking out today’s Twins minor league report. Please feel free to discuss, comment or ask questions.

I purposely didn't mention the two or three big hits from last weekend because that's such a small part of the story. That's some of the right man, right time kind of thing... Anyone can come up with a game-winning or game-tying hit (not to minimize the importance of them)... but Dozier's improvement has happened over 9-10 weeks, not just one weekend.

My honest opinion is that we are probably making far too much out of his defense last year. There were nerves. He got into some bad streaks defensively. He is better at SS than what we saw. Players/Pitchers who played with him in the minor leagues loved him. He's steady and solid at SS, but now at 2B, he's really, really good. I do think a lot of it is just being more and more comfortable.

Anyone that looked at the Minnesota Twins roster coming out of spring training new that the team would not be competing with the Detroit Tigers in 2013. So, in my mind, 2013 would be all about development and improvement. Those two things would be the keys, the things I would be looking for, in 2013. From a development standpoint, the Twins farm system continues to add talent, and the top ranked players are continuing to improve as they move up. From an improvement standpoint, there were a couple of players at the big league level that we needed to watch. While a couple of players have seemingly reached a (hopefully) temporary plateau, a couple of others have needed time at AAA. Fortunately, one player has possibly taken a step forward in his career. [ATTACH=CONFIG]5109[/ATTACH] Now, if you take a look at the season total numbers for Brian Dozier, they won’t create any excitement. In 94 total games this season, Dozier is hitting just .236/.307/.394 (.701). That makes him a slightly below average major league second baseman. However, when you consider that in 84 games in 2012, Dozier hit just .234/.271/.332 (.603), it is a huge step forward. A nearly .100 point improvement is significant. One thing that I always look for is player improvement over time. Consider the below: [TABLE] Opening Day through 5/27 5/28 through 8/4 Games 37 57 H-AB 27-137 54-206 BB:K 8:33 24:38 BA .197 .262 OBP .238 .350 SLG .270 .476 OPS .508 .826 [/TABLE] Of course, if you want, you can pick apart many small sample sizes and come up with numbers, but I do think that the streak that Dozier has been on for the last nine weeks is enough of a sample that we can draw something from it. What do I see? He’s walking significantly more, while also improving his strikeout rate some. His batting average jumped .065 points, but more important, his on-base percentage is suddenly up into the category where he is an asset near the top of the lineup. He’s also hit for much more power. What if Dozier would have started the season by posting that .826 OPS over the first two months of the season, instead of struggling so much again? Well, that .826 OPS would be behind only Robinson Cano and Jason Kipnis among all AL second basemen. If Dozier can continue to control the plate as he has from the leadoff spot, I think that an OPS of .750-.775 is reasonable. Is it something he could carry over into next year? People may forget, but he only turned 26 years old in mid-May. He still has just 725 plate appearances in his big league career. However, as much improvement as we have seen at the plate from Dozier, what he has done in the field is even more remarkable. A year ago, Dozier played 84 games with the Twins at shortstop and really struggled. To be fair, so did Pedro Florimon, so we should not make too much of it. With Florimon playing tremendous defense at shortstop, Dozier has made the transition to second base, and he has done so nearly flawlessly. By the eye test, Dozier just looks like a natural at second base. He makes the routine plays look routine, and he has very good range to his left and his right, and enough arm to make the tougher throws from behind second base. He charges the ball well when needed and goes out on pop ups very well. He looks very comfortable at second base, but what do the defensive metrics tell us? He has just three errors and a .994 fielding percentage. That fielding percentage is tops in baseball, tied with Dustin Pedroia and Ben Zobrist. Zobrist has spent less time at second. It is interesting to note that despite playing in 19 less games than Pedroia, he has just two less putouts and five less assists, which means that he’s getting to more plays per game. Is that more range, or is that just more ground balls from pitchers? That we don’t know, but it is impressive. If you were to look at a statistic called Range Factor, which is a good measure of range, Dozier is posting a 5.63. Neil Walker is number two in MLB with a 5.20 Range Factor. The second-base Range Factor in the American League is A’s second baseman Eric Sogard. His UZR/150 (Ultimate Zone Rating, calculated over 150 games) of 2.8, Dozier ranks fourth in the AL among second basemen. Of course, like any of these stats, they have to be taken as small sample size an could still vary over time. By any measure, Brian Dozier has been terrific defensively. If Dozier continues to post an OPS in the .750-.775 range (maybe even over .800?), and his defense remains tremendous, could you see a scenario where the Twins would move Eddie Rosario back out to left field or right field and play in an outfield with Aaron Hicks and Oswaldo Arcia for a couple of years until Byron Buxton is ready? Who knows what will happen over the final two months of the season? Will Dozier continue posting an .800+ OPS, or will he revert to the sub-.600 OPS that we saw from him early this season and throughout 2012? But, right now, the trend is moving in the right direction.

Thank you! Corrected... and, thank you!

It's been about six weeks since the last time we updated the list of Minnesota Twins or minor league related players and personnel. If you're on Twitter, here is a list of nearly 170 people that you should consider following. Most of them are players, but we also have the Twitter accounts of the Twins front office personnel, minor league media and more. Most important, I encourage you to let me know if anyone is missing from this list. I'd love for it to be complete, but I'm certain that I will miss some. Leave any that are missed in the Comments. I'm showing how many followers each player has as of today (8/4) compared to what they had in mid-June. It's fun to see how promotions increase people's followers.

It's been about six weeks since the last time we updated the list of Minnesota Twins or minor league related players and personnel. If you're on Twitter, here is a list of nearly 170 people that you should consider following. Most of them are players, but we also have the Twitter accounts of the Twins front office personnel, minor league media and more. Most important, I encourage you to let me know if anyone is missing from this list. I'd love for it to be complete, but I'm certain that I will miss some. Leave any that are missed in the Comments. I'm showing how many followers each player has as of today (8/4) compared to what they had in mid-June. It's fun to see how promotions increase people's followers.
