    Fangraphs has a top 100 prospect update....from "others we almost put in the top 100." Luke Keaschall, 2B/CF, Minnesota Twins As we approach work on the Twins list from top to bottom, we checked on Keaschall, who has done nothing but rake since entering pro ball, albeit in a relatively small sample. He’s shown feel for the zone, bat control, and modest power. Keaschall has never been a very good infield defender and the Twins have been experimenting with him in center field. He is very much still learning to play out there. Rubel Cespedes, 3B, Minnesota Twins Cespedes is a potential plus third base defender with a 70 arm, capable of hosing guys from deep in the corner. His swing is similar to Cam Collier’s and draft prospect Bryce Rainer’s — there’s big bat speed and low-ball lift but real vulnerability at the top of the strike zone. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/a-top-100-prospects-update/

    Nope. Rose knew the rules. Nope.
  3. Mike Sixel
    What makes you think they didn't try? That they just passed on him?
  4. Mike Sixel
    I thought this had to be an Onion article, but nope, somehow it's real. Wow.

    You can only make the trade you can make. They weren't getting a good major league player for polanco.
  6. Mike Sixel
    Polanco has been bad. And they love veterans, so he'd be playing and not Miranda .....
  7. Mike Sixel
    How did the Ryan trade work? This constant relitigating of everything, sigh.
  8. Mike Sixel
    My comment was about the in house hitting options.... Not just the last sentence.
  9. Mike Sixel
    Everyone is playing badly, they are winning, and the manager isn't doing his job? Something doesn't add up....
  10. Mike Sixel
    I wonder how patient the owners will be.....
  11. Mike Sixel
    That's my general feeling....
  12. Mike Sixel
    I don't think they match the price the Orioles paid, so I'm not sure that's a fair comparison. The biggest mistake is Margot, though the only one I pointed out before the season was Santana..... So what do I know. I didn't point out the pitching because I'm not sure who they realistically sign, budget cut or not.
  13. Mike Sixel
    Wallner has a five arm....
  14. Mike Sixel
    If they aren't making the playoffs, and they likely aren't, I hope they have exciting games, and lose a lot..... That schedule looks pretty hard given last year's record.....
  15. Mike Sixel
    Mike 1:55 How far out has Jenkins injury pushed him? Does this delay his progress by a year, or it doesn't matter all that much? thanks, Keith Law 1:55 Walker? Don't think this matters in the long run.
  16. Mike Sixel
    This wasn't about Martin, but I found it instructive for him (and others)......Those here that think there is no development left in MLB (and there are some of you here)....this is for you: Keith Law 1:39 Don't think he has anything to learn in AAA. The gap between that level and the majors is enormous. Teams have to adjust and be willing to let hitters come up and struggle for a few months as they adjust to better pitching.
  17. Mike Sixel
    52nd, negative fWAR. Negative.....
  18. Mike Sixel
    Been impressed at him again this year, was not expecting him to be good again, given his history. Excellent signing by the FO.
  19. Mike Sixel
    Different things.... People here seem to be complaining they are free, but on the wrong app.... Don't get me wrong, baseball broadcasting is broken..... We all agree on that.
  20. Mike Sixel
    This is why some of us wanted him off SS and in the OF much sooner in the minors.... He's been ok, but I agree, he should go back down when Buxton is ready. And, put Emma in AAA
  21. Mike Sixel
    I guess I thought more free games was a good idea..... Apparently not?
  22. Mike Sixel
    That has nothing to do with fancy stats.
  23. Mike Sixel
    What do statistics matter for watching a game or not? I've never understood this.
  24. Mike Sixel
    Twins bullpen is in the bottom third in innings pitched....
  25. Mike Sixel
    I understand all of that ... You may recall previous years where the stuck with veterans....
