    One of the most disappointing players this year. For the last month, he is hitting below the Mendoza line. At this time, the only reason he would get called up ahead of Stevenson is because he is actually on the 40 man roster.

    When Polanco comes back, the roster and lineup get very interesting. There should now be zero chance that Julien goes back to St. Paul.

    Brooks Lee apparently not happy about not being invited to the Futures Game as he is on fire since then. E-Rod great clutch hit and multi-hit game tonight.

    Yake is definitely like Shuffield last year. They need a guy who mostly comes off the bench, a warm body. I believe Yake was on the Saints roster last year when a player was needed for the short-term.

    Great news! That is a nice infield with Schobel, Lee and Severino if Sabato could do anything.

    Who would have guessed that Kepler would ground out to 2B. Has he ever done that before............
  8. FlyingFinn
    Not a serious answer but if you really want to be negative - have to let Wallner cool off so when he is played, he doesn't show up Gallo and Kepler.

    "His momentary outbursts of offense – a few mile-long home runs bunched together in a brief span – are surrounded by oceans of unproductive PAs at the heart of the lineup. It's not a tenable situation." Wasn't this exact quote made last year, for Miguel Sano???

    Polanco to 2B, Julien to DH, Buxton to IL. Radio announcers said that Buxton just doesn't look right out there. When he plays hurt, he turns into the 3 outcome batter, BB, SO, or HR. Since he's swinging at balls and letting strikes go, it is a lot of SO's lately. Let Buxton get healthy for the stretch run and injuries will probably let us figure out things by the time he is ready to play again.

    Camargo keeps looking like he needs to be on the Twins 40 man roster this winter.

    @Brock Beauchamp It also told me I had already voted but I hadn't yet. Did my votes make it? Thanks.

    I don't think the Twins see Prato as a prospect. He hit .171 in more at bats in Wichita this year. Very much like Shuffield last year, they just move him to wherever they need him. Like Shuffield, he oddly goes and hits way better at AAA than he did at the lower level. Still think the Twins move him down if they need roster space with the Saints rather than up to the Twins when a utility guy is needed.
  14. FlyingFinn
    Yea, and it feels like Gallo's homers win games and aren't in garbage time (I didn't actually check it out).
  15. FlyingFinn
    McCusker was signed about the time Ortega got moved up and seems to have taken his place as the star hitter with Fort Myers.
  16. FlyingFinn
    @Brock BeauchampPlease add Camargo.
  17. FlyingFinn
    Any word on Schobel or anyone else moving up a level during this break?
  18. FlyingFinn
    Maybe the Twins think they really have someone in the minors between Camargo, Cossetti, and Cardenas and maybe Olivar.
  19. FlyingFinn
    That was clearly said in April by Rocco on the pregame radio show for the Twins. That changed in May to "we will reevaluate in June." So the date was moved back and terminology changed from scheduled to reevaluated. So plans have changed or not improved as expected early in the season.
  20. FlyingFinn
    Some bad news from last years draft, Connor Prielipp is now done for the season according to the Cedar Rapids roster.
  21. FlyingFinn
    I'm hoping it's a smokescreen from the Twins to get one of the top five who drops to us to accept a little less money. The Twins have taken a number of high schoolers in the 1st round, Kirilloff and Lewis being two of them. Also hoping the front office doesn't feel pressure to succeed in the next two to three years and take a college hitter just because of that.
  22. FlyingFinn
    Good job by Festa in the futures game. I haven't looked up the numbers but it sure seems like Soularie has been so much better this last month for the Wind Surge.
  23. FlyingFinn
    Culpepper continues in the line of starting pitchers who moved up from Fort Myers to Cedar Rapids and do great. Hope Matthews, Lewis and Culpepper keep it up. MacLeod actually pitched a couple game in Fort Myers this year and is really pitching well. A very good pipeline right now in A ball. With Nowlin, Hidalgo, Carr, Paredes, Jones (some good and some bad games for most of these guys), and Prielipp hopefully coming back, you have to wonder if one of these gets traded for bullpen help for the Twins. I certainly don't want more than one of these guys being traded though.
  24. FlyingFinn
    What's happened to the Saints bats? After scoring 10 runs per game for a week, they can hardly get a hit in the last few games. Enlow not very good either. Schobel, after a slow start this season, is on fire. Make room for him in Wichita by July.
  25. FlyingFinn
    Yes, and 3B. The Twins have totally abandoned that. He's worse at those positions than 2B. Absolutely love the hitting though.
