  1. That's true. I just figured if you are going to take a SS that high it probably means you expect him to stick at short. Anything can happen and I hope they draft the best player they can get.
  2. I know you're supposed to draft the best player available and not exactly for need, but would the Twins take a shortstop with the #6 pick after drafting Nick Gordon last year?
  3. http://m.mlb.com/video/v81918783/minkc-arcia-drops-moustakas-fly-ball-in-the-6th/?c_id=mlb
  4. I think Escobar got the short end of the stick after how he performed last year. If they are sticking with Santana, then he really needs a full year out there unless he isn't hitting. That relay throw was really humming to the plate
  5. Followed closely by this one http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll36/Bigsteve87/Gifs/carlton-dance-gif.gif
  6. It is definitely one of my favorite gifs
  7. Sounds like Terry Ryan watched both of the Rochester games today
  8. Starting after he was drafted last year, it seems like Mat Batts has done nothing but perform. These two were guys I was excited for before the season started and they have started out well.
  9. I'd like to see more effort to block that. Maybe he got mixed up on pitches
  10. Cedar Rapids Kernels ‏@CRKernels 2m2 minutes ago Mat Batts has retired the last 12 he has faced, allowing just 2 hits so far. Kernels lead 3-0 after 5 innings. Go Mat!
  11. I've been stuck in the 800s for a while now. Need to post more instead of just reading
  12. Wow, I didn't know that story about Kendrys Morales.
  13. Does Tommy Milone lead the starting pitchers in K/9?
  14. I'm also having a good day, and part of that is because Alex Meyer and Taylor Rogers had good days. I like good days
  15. I wouldn't have benched him during the game. I don't see what that proves. I think we need to be careful when mentioning the attitude of a person we aren't around everyday though. If Arcia isn't making these plays and is struggling offensively because of bad attitude, then he needs to be benched for some games. Personally, I don't think that is the case. This season so far has really given me a good grasp on how much defense can have an affect on pitching stats. It has to be hard for the pitchers to be confident out there with the way the defense is playing behind them.
  16. There have been some encouraging pitching performances by guys who aren't all highly rated prospects to start the year. Hopefully that continues.
  17. Simmons was ready to play when he was called up. Buxton is not. I'm not saying Buxton can't be a MLB player right now at all. I have no doubt he would do better over the course of a season than what we have right now. What's the point of having a minor league system if you aren't going to use it for players to prepare for the majors?
