    Wow, I have never been more shocked in my life /s Seriously, not sure I care anymore. The tv shows are great, and if even half the others are good, that's better than another 1200 page book where only 200 pages matter (I'm looking at you, Jordan and Martin).

    How'd you feel about his use of Kepler early last year, or Polanco? Was not a fan, personally. My guess is that both the anti molitor, and pro molitor, sides are too black and white in their positions.

    Twins up 27-0? Yes, yes I would.

    What we know is that after the top 1-3 or 5, the expected value of draft picks drops fast. Then there is another tier, then another, then some more, then after round 4 or 5, I think, it's kind of luck. But, I'd have to find the studies to know for sure (they are out there).

    We don't really know that, though. His life would be totally different. It's likely(?), but we don't know it. Also, he could still rebound and hit. We don't know yet, he's 21/2....

    I'd pay 200K right now. It would hurt a lot, but I'd do it.

    Gentry 1:22 Last calendar year Robbie Grossman is one of the top hitting outfielders, but how good of a hitter do you consider him to be? Eno Sarris 1:23 Decent. A bit above average. Has good patience! average or better in patience, contact, power... just doesn't really pop in one place other than patience. http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/eno-sarris-baseball-chat-6117/

    Sigh. Wish I was younger.

    I mentioned to KLAW that JJ lost a lot of money since the start of college, said if he'd have come out after his freshman year, he would have gone top 10.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Not sure I said this here, but it's good that a legit prospect got the call. Let's hope they actually use him, and that he's good.
  11. Mike Sixel
    I asked both KLAW and Longenhagen if JJ was back into round two now? KLAW: Not for me. will post Eric's reply if he makes one.
  12. Mike Sixel
    I'd say that's how I'd use Wimmers, but is that how they used him last year? I literally cannot recall, but I don't think so.
  13. Mike Sixel
    No, but I can ask KLAW on Twitter (he rarely responds, but we can see). Or maybe Longenhagen.... Dude was severely penalized by the rules prohibiting sophomores (or was it his freshman year that was so great?) from being drafted! So much money gone.....

    cool we are seeing promotions. Thanks Seth.

    Hmmmm.....poorly written, or coming to wrong conclusions? those are 2 very different things.... I'm not sure how twins' fans becoming confident has anything to do with what happens in the FO or with the manager, though.
  16. Mike Sixel
    I don't see any evidence of them wanting young players up here. They pursued a 35 yo DH, signed two RPs over 35, and brought in 2 veteran catchers. I think Rosario is the first young, actual prospect, they've called up. Frankly, we have no idea what this FO wants, or doesn't. Molitor? Agreed, he seems to have trust issues with young pitchers. But again, that's just a hypothesis/theory.

    And Buxton was old for his class......
  18. Mike Sixel
    For me? Zero. I'd do it for zero dollars. Otherwise, give me the better players. All day.
  19. Mike Sixel
    More than 1 team picks a 2nd time before MN......the pool is smaller....there is no guarantee a guy will fall. Pick the player you like the best. Good players will be there at 35 and 37, no matter what some here would say about how it is nigh on impossible to make good picks that late.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Good deal on Rosario. It's a start, finally.
  21. Mike Sixel
    I can't see any reason for Wade not to be in AAA this year, and MN next year.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Zero interest in a 1B only player 1:1. I do think he has a real shot to be a legit MLB player, though. I just gotta go for more upside than that, when given the chance.
  23. Mike Sixel
    As someone that just moved across the US, and knows no one really, this is my place to hang out with "friends". That was a great post.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Yes, good thread
  25. Mike Sixel
    Reluctant is a clear understatement at this point.
