  1. Whoa now Chief, it will be more than just pop-ups heading towards the outfield in Minnesota.
  2. Yes, Bedard was worth a shot this spring training
  3. Cool, I see why we should not give up on anyone. But can we at least drop him from our list until he produces, then immediately put him in an appropriate spot?
  4. Well he is already 22, but he projected to OUT-HOMER Sano if he had played the full season. Can't see how he isn't going to be successful moving to A+ with other MLB-caliber hitters in Rosario and Sano.
  5. Dang right. I have him at #20. dont care how old he is...he PRODUCES!
  6. I am actually quite intrigued by the idea of Mauer being a full-time DH. He may hit like he did in '09 if he can devote 100% of his energy to offense?
  7. One more thing..I dont see how A. Salcedo can be ranked ahead of ANY other pitcher in the system...production matters to me.
  8. Parmelee is NO JOKE at the plate, but he has outgrown his potential to be a solid defensive outfielder.
  9. Okay...i understand now. In my opinion...we start Benson in CF with Mastro being the 4th OF....I guess we have no choice but to start a 1B in RF this year. Young is a DH for sure, But I thought Cuddyer was slightly above average defensively in RF. No?
  10. Ortiz does not belong in the top-30. I mean, you didn't include Tyler Duffey, Josmil Pinto, DJ Baxendale, AJ Achter, Zach Jones, Corey Williams, etc. But DID include Ortiz? Ortiz probably won't ever make it out of AA, but he's a top-30 guy for you?
  11. HA! Yes, David Arias was wayyy better than the Twins could perceive. As for the title and how it pertains to the article......If you read the Kennys Vargas quip, I compare his "look" to Big Papi....now do you see the correlation?
  12. OK, I LOVE Vargas at #12...that's gutsy. I had people telling me he was not top-20. But, why can't we expect Jorge Polanco to hit well as he advances?? Just your opinion? Zachary Jones is NOT in your top-30?? Whoa...he is gonna impress you this year. You'll be like, "what was I thinking dissing Jones?" In my opinion, Jones is better than your 25-30.
  13. True, I dont see Ryan spending on free-agent in the A-B class. Slashing payroll is Ryan's MO
  14. Its safe to say we are going to be a whole lot better by 2015, or someone is getting fired
  15. This video clip: ....reminds me of the pitching motion of Zack greinke, but zack is more over-the-top than berrios.
  16. I am not really liking comparing Berrios to any lefties, or anyone that weighs 200 lbs or greater. Maybe you can compare stats, but I am talking more about what he looks like on the mound and his "stuff." I don't know. I admitted the Timmy comparison was not fair, or great for that matter. Let me see.....
  17. I would have to agree with those that think it is a big improvement to sign early rather than skipping out on rookie ball because of contract negotiations.
  18. I had to include Colabello for the reasons listed in my article. He is "on the cusp" by being in AA last year, and most of my list is guys that were in A+ or lower last year. So he was a perfect fit at 20, and I am hoping we make some trades to get him a shot while we wait for Sano or Harrison or Vargas to take over at 1B in 2015 or whatever. Sooooo, he is a prospect, with a shot to be a 30-31-yr-old rookie in Minnesota. Or is there an age limit to being a baseball prospect?
  19. Completely agree. Sano could have Mark Reynolds numbers or he could develop into a miguel cabrera MVP-type. Gibson is repaired and effective, but Meyer easily has more upside. Just think what we could get in trade for Meyer compared to what we'd get for Gibson. I think Eddie is going to surprise this year and move up
  20. That needs to be very open-ended because Morneau and Willingham do not have static value. They will either be more or less valuable when/if they are dealt than they are now. So "pitching" is the objective, but a solid minor league shortstop would be awesome in trade for M & W
  21. What if Sano can't play 3B? and its hard to imagine the organization getting a "Free Agent Gem" at shortstop. But lets hope that all shakes out
  22. This is well articulated. I must say...quite refreshing and clear.
  23. Thank you Old Goat, I appreciate your optimism. Life is too short to interrupt every dream with practicality
  24. Sidenote: snepp, I made you a video here:
  25. I ranked the best four in my opinion. What do you think?
