    I never mentioned the Twins in that post.....no place did I mention the Twins. That post was about people on this board.....not sure why you assumed I was talking about the Twins.

    Really good college pitchers have moved fast. Bad college pitchers have completely stalled, and, imo, not been moved to relief fast enough. Which, frankly, is what you'd expect. Good players move up, and bad players do not.

    Thanks, ya, even on the radio they said that Dozier play (and others, and the previous day) were really errors/bad defense. Good to hear on Hicks, it is so hard to tell on the radio what the range really is. I would really like Parmalee to play every day, so the Twins can get a better feel for his offense. That's the key to me for him.

    I didn't "go after him"....he said "throughout the organization", and I just want to have help understanding what is good at the MLB level. Nothing more sinister than that. No "digs". No nothing other than I'm trying to find hope at the MLB level. Actually looking for someone to offer some positives so I can see them, and not just see the negatives. What has improved over the last two, that's what I'm trying to understand. The hitting and pitching and fielding are worse, by WAR measurements (and their components) for everyone but the relief pitchers. So, I'm looking for some bright spots, and I am struggling to see them. If Nick, or you, have ideas of what they are, I'm all eyes.

    What are the positives at the MLB level? I am struggling, personally, to see them right now. I can't think of 1 young player that I view as a long term contributor (relief pitchers excluded).

    Well, we know Sano will be here in 2015, why not call up Romero and see what you have, while there is any kind of opening at all? It's not like Plouffe has proven anything. If he was judged like Gibson, he'd be in AAA for sure. Exactly what would it hurt to call him up, and get a look? Nothing. Not a thing.
  7. Mike Sixel
    Very good, exciting news. Can't wait to see him them in the majors.
  8. Mike Sixel
    How'd the Single A all star game go for those guys? I missed it somehow. edit: nm, I see in the other thread the break is now. I thought somehow I'd missed something.....
  9. Mike Sixel
    Always an excuse. Next year we will read how he did not pitch much in the majors in 2013, and we just need to he patient and wait for 2015 to see the real Gibson.
  10. Mike Sixel
    Wow, the third best guy has 3.3? Wow.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Nice writeup Seth, thanks.
  12. Mike Sixel
    I think I agree with what Nick said, this is partly about following the Stewart pick with a more signable player.
  13. Mike Sixel
    I'd like some athletic middle infielders, and more pitching. I'd be shocked if a catcher does not come to the Twins in the next three picks. I don't see them taking tough signs here, as they will want more depth, not one or two more good guys. But that's just a guess based on 1 year of data with this new system, and 1 year is not a trend.

    Name calling? Sigh.
  16. Mike Sixel
    I don't get why people are upset that people are, you know, offering their opinion on a pick, in a thread about the pick......what are we supposed to do in these threads if not discuss and offer opinions?
  17. Mike Sixel
    How many in a row had kC lost at hone?
  18. Mike Sixel
    not even close. This post was about fun and entertainment , not about, well, other stuff.
  19. Mike Sixel
    I would have preferred more risk, but who knows? It is amazing the delta between the MLB draft and nfl draft, in terms of coverage and fan knowledge .
  20. Mike Sixel
    His purpose is to make Hicks look good, right?
  21. Mike Sixel
    at least they got him in the game right away, so he could get his feet wet.....
  22. Mike Sixel
    harold Reynolds? They should just give up now. I watched some tonight, it was awful.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Why can't I like this? I like this.
  24. Mike Sixel
    This team is not good. But at least they are playing young player s and rebuilding, right?
  25. Mike Sixel
    Top pitching prospect in the system once he signs.
