    Kaelen seems to be a guy that rises to the occasion and works hard. Sounds like he is a SS for the long haul with a cannon. The Twins may need to hone the approach to put the bat in the right counts. I like what I've seen so far.

    Santana has been really hot as of late and doesn't appear to me to need replacing.
  3. Heistyman
    Trade him while he looks good and maybe toss in Martin and get us some young low minors talent.

    Thank Goodness the ChiSox suck so bad they make us look good.

    Blind Squirrel finds nut...news at 11.

    Thanks, I wondered where Buxton ranked as he swings at everything.
  7. Heistyman
    You had to go back 30+ years to find the exception.....not very comforting.
  8. Heistyman
    Bring back Jim Hooey
  9. Heistyman
    Strange that we ding prospects when they strikeout 30% of the time but the Twins main club is allowed a 40% clip.
  10. Heistyman
    You can't spell DeSclafani without DFA.

    I like this deal for both sides. Margot is also a good defender although he may not have the range he once had. He should be a good 4th OF'er type and could replace Buck when needed. The Bums have alot of bats and could use a glove first SS if injuries arise.
  12. Heistyman
    Give me Bauer on a prove it deal.

    Weiss has allowed 8 bombs in 27 major league innings. We better get an X-Ray on his neck from turning around to see them go out so frequently. Boy I hope they saw something in the video they can fix because at age 31 and that track record he looks like a milb invite at best.

    Gabriel Gonzalez SEA, OF, 20.3 - Gonzalez' numbers dropped off majorly when he got promoted to High-A. He put up a 149 wRC+ with a 13.7% K% in 73 games at Single-A vs. a 21.5% K% and 83 wRC+ in 43 games at High-A. Single-A was his age appropriate level, but it's not a great sign that more advanced pitchers were able to exploit his extremely aggressive plate approach (6.5% BB%). He's not a toolsy guy or imposing figure at 5'10'' with below average speed, and his groundball rates have been on the high side at 53.4% at High-A. He does hit the ball hard with more power likely coming (18 homers in 2023), and he does have an excellent feel to hit, but it's a profile that is lacking upside right now. Recent scouting report on Gonzalez.

    The agents are waiting on the TV deals. Increased cash flow will make the markets more competitive.
  16. Heistyman
    Seems like a silly question, of course he's the best. He did things no one else ever did.
  17. Heistyman
    Why would the Twins give the 39th best prospect the 25th largest bonus? Sounds like an over pay.
  18. Heistyman
    I see Andrew Knizner was non tendered by St Louis and he seems like a solid backup catcher. He is almost 29 but has big league experience and hit 10 homers last year in 250 abs.

    I'm from Iowa and my brothers were 8-10 yrs old when the Twins began in 1961 and became big fans. I was born in 1961 and followed their footsteps. The Rec Dept would take a van load of locals to MSP each summer for a game and I started getting to the games that way starting in 1970. We'd also tune into Halsey Hall each night in the summer.

    The Twins traded perceived depth when they actually didn't know what they had in Steer yet. Maybe it's me but it seems like the Twins do this often. I wish they would wait on trading prospects till they know what they have.
  21. Heistyman
    The problem is the algorithm they use has Gonzalez in the Top 5 so they are not viewing him as a teens to 20 guy. Don't get me wrong I'm with you, but I think they are stuck on their internal rankings and will probably end up moving guys ahead of the high schoolers. I hate when the Twins get cute and elevate a lesser prospect to save some money. When you factor in the higher risk level of that reach the odds of success decrease significantly.
  22. Heistyman
    I wonder if they said the same about Jack Leiter
  23. Heistyman
    Cody, May I ask what site you got the pitch type data from? It looks very interesting.
  24. Heistyman
    Year of the stolen base with 90% success rate and the Twins have yet to attempt a steal. Cmon Man
