  1. Also, Alan Busenitz throws upper 90's, so he's not just a throw in.
  2. I like the trade. I still have hope for Alex Meyer though. Bye Ricky!
  3. Looks like Lucroy to the Rangers is going to happen. Gallo is a nice return if it goes through.
  4. Scott Feldman has started only 5 of the 26 games he has appeared in this year.
  5. Yeah, it's annoying that they're doing the smart thing.
  6. MLBpipeline says they may be their #1. Not much in terms of frontline pitching though, or top of the line (top 10 overall range) prospects, but great depth.
  7. I like the improved discipline at the plate and hopefully that continues. Also, happy 26th birthday, Kennys!
  8. I'm fine with the Twins hard stance on Santana. If you can't get everyone you want, then keep him as the solid veteran in the rotation for next year.
  9. There's no way I'd do that. One year of Lucroy for 6 years of Buxton isn't even a consideration.
  10. Grossman Mauer Kepler Dozier Suzuki Escobar Polanco- DH Santana- 3rd base Buxton That's new... Any time you can give development time in the field to Danny Santana instead of Jorge Polanco, you've got to do it (at least he's playing.) Also, another day off for Sano. smh.
  11. And Taylor Hearn, who has a 12.3 K/9 in class A. That's a really nice haul for Pittsburgh.
  12. Really? Have you seen Dozier try to make a throw to home on a relay? It's not very pretty, and almost every throw to first is a lob. I'm not saying he's a bad fielder, but his arm is not his strong point.
  13. And we're 1 for 1 with Polanco on the bench. Thanks Paul.
  14. I don't want to see Brian throw 64 mph lobs across the diamond.
  15. Yeah he's only leading the AL in stolen bases and hitting around .300. The Nunez bashing in regards to the All Star game is a little over the top in my opinion.
  16. For me, the thinking is whenever a prospect starts a season in AA, there's a good chance that he plays in the MLB at some point that year, depending in their performance of course.
  17. I guess mlb.com isn't quite ready to buy into the breakout season of Luis Arraez, as he wasn't in the top 30. I would assume this has mostly to do with his lack of defensive ability.
  18. Also, 2016 first round pick, Blake Rutherford, got ranked at #64. I was hoping Alex Krilloff would make this top 100, and with continued success in E-town, he should make some offseason lists I would think.
  19. Interesting picture they chose for Ben Rortvedt. I had to question myself wondering if he was a switch hitter, so I don't know why they went with that one. I'm glad they seem to like him, but #10 seems too high.
  20. Yeah, I have no idea why they have Walker ahead of Palka. They do basically the same things, except Palka does them better.
  21. Darren O'Day throws mid 80's, and that's worked out well for him, and I'm pretty sure I've seen Seth write that Hildenberger is more low 90's.
  22. Anthony Slama had a minor league career 4.1 BB/9. Hildenberger is at 1.2(!) BB/9. Plus, Hildenberger has the whole side-arm thing going for him.
  23. Theo Epstein said he and Chapman had a "heartfelt" conversation about off field expectations before the trade took place. Chapman tells the media he can't remember what the conversation was about. That looks real nice, and even more reason to root against the Cubs this year. http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/aroldis-chapmans-first-meeting-with-the-chicago-media-did-not-go-well/
