  1. Maybe he is. We literally have no idea. Other than him playing 2B in winter leagues (not his choice, the mgr decides that). * *note, I think we are talking about Polanco, it's all a blur now!
  2. I was responding to the suggestion that Polanco should play some 2B.....
  3. Isn't nearly every baseball player an athletic 23 year old with a lifetime of baseball?
  4. How often do you plan to bench Dozier, for that to work?
  5. I think he sits in a cube not far from me. Haven't seen him this week. Who knew? Wow.
  6. Cross off another veteran DH.....Napoli to the Rangers.
  7. Why are you surprised? he is one of the 5 worst players, out of 300+ players each of the last two years. Why would someone want that? Usually those guys can field, or steal bases, or sometimes (rarely) hit.
  8. Agreed, and I wouldn't miss him. He's, at best, the 25th man on the roster. That spot is important, but it is also somewhat fungible (if you bother to try to have a good player, Mr. Smith) and a well run organization should have several good options depending on their needs at the time (defense, power, infielder, OF, whatever).
  9. Like/love the MLB OFers.....but the minors are amazingly devoid of upside OFers. Palka learning to hit the ball, rather than miss it, would be a huge boon to the list.
  10. Scratch Pat Light off the RP list....so that's probably good.
  11. Rumor has it either a college or HS guy did that a few years ago, can't recall who it was.... edit: wasn't a probable number 1, but it was a top pick, like top 5....I'll see if I can find it.
  12. I am all over Greene also, though if one of the college pitchers really takes over, that would be cool too. Kendall would have to seriously improve his contact skills for me. Also, since the Twins are unlikely to ever outbid someone for an ACE, I'm more for the ace. Kendall or another hitter would have to really stand out like Harper or Bryant.
  13. I agree, but they didn't need more yards, they just needed to run time (or burn NE timouts) and kick a FG....... Nothing against NE, truly one of the great QBs and coaches of all time.
  14. Kendall has serious contact issues from what I read.
  15. Can you be a 5 tool prospect, if you can't make consistent contact?
  16. If Chargois isn't on the roster, are they just punting on using any young RPs? That would make no sense to me at all. In fact, it would greatly disappoint me.
  17. Did you say ground ball tendencies? That's good, with Sano and Polanco out there?
  18. I'd like to see Wade in AA, but I agree, it might not work out that way to start the year.
  19. I'm not convinced that deciding between mediocre RPs is really a make or break decision for Falvine, frankly. Me? I'd prefer more young guys getting shots. Their arms getting healthier..... I would also prefer Hughes back in the bullpen, unless there is a miracle and he can throw hard as a starter. I think Nick has it right, prediction wise.
  20. who, exactly, have they promoted too quickly that is a RP? And why do stupid teams like the Cardinals keep promoting young pitchers to be RPs?
