  1. Has this guy seen him pitch? Seems ridiculous to make these comments if he hasn't.
  2. Sano is something to watch. Even his fly outs are exciting. One night I saw him, he went 0 for 4 and every ball was hammered to deep left or center, ball literally going into orbit. Takes for ever for the ball to come down, we're all like where's the ball. What a great game last night.
  3. TN seems to have the Lookouts number this year. Hope you're right about Meyer. Former No. 1 pick Levi Michael batting 248, no need to add anything further.
  4. Great question, Twins have a Puerto Rico scout, I think he also covers South Florida but not sure. Berrios was well known with MLB, as the Yankees were all over him. This is one of the few times I credit the Twins in drafting. Berrios had a 95 FB and good curve coming out of high school but his determination has gotten him this far. I was hoping the Twins would take McCullers from Tampa but darn if the Astros got him so then I hoped they take Berrios and about fell off my chair when Twins picked him.
  5. Totally agree. Hard to believe he's only 21 when watching him. Outstanding mound presence, doesn't seem to get rattled, holds runners with the best of them. FO needs to see what they have with Pelfrey gone next year. They were probably smart not having him start in Toronto against that line up. I'd bring him up and finish the year with the Twins.
  6. Saw him in ST in infield drills, the guy is like a vacuum cleaner out there, drawing oos and aws from the fans and coaches. Great to see him turn the corner with his bat.
  7. After yesterday's results, I'm changing my vote to F.
  8. Probably figure be a couple of starts then Duffy sent back down. Can't they get a waiver deal on Pelfrey then slot May back in rotation. I mean, come on.
  9. Great news on Duffy. May cant be a happy camper
  10. I've seen lots of scouts at Lookout games and highly doubt Kepler is flying under the radar. If wasn't for his injury, he would have played at Futures game. Since he's had a history of injuries, my guess is they want to make sure he can play a full season. Be awesome if he was a September call up. The guy looks like a young Justin Morneau, just uncanny. He's really good, can play all outfield positions and 1st base. Since he made thru the trade deadline (wiping sweat off my brow) the Twins may have him on the untouchable list, at least I hope so. In my worthless opinion, you build the outfield around Buxton and Kepler, then fill in the blank on the other guy. I agree with Diehardtwinsfan, Buxton Kepler starting 2016 in AAA, call up to Twins. .
  11. I think you're right about this. Since Hicks has started to hit, they won't rush Buxton.
  12. And don't forget Berrios and Duffy as both should be ready.
  13. I was getting nervous yesterday thinking 1 of them will be traded by our infamous FO for a relief pitcher. I have since chilled out. I think Stewart has highest upside but Gonsalves, a 6'5" lefty that's still getting his man muscles, boy it's close.
  14. Trade JR Graham back to Atlanta for AJ, then get some real bullpen help. Anybody want to take Pelfrey, Arcia or Santana? They're not all world right now but gotta be worth something.
  15. Great article and couldn't agree more. Batting 331 in AA is huge. This guy is a on base machine and should be called up.
  16. Well that's what I've been wondering for quite some time and did the tinkering end up being major surgery. Last I heard, scouts were saying he lowered his arm slot so how in the world did that happen.
  17. Maybe Ryan is on vacation, you know Salmon fishing in Alaska, no cell phone converage, relaxing, thinking the trade deadline is August 31, not July 31.
  18. Arcia didn't play, is he hurt or ready to be packaged and sent out? Surprising to hear Stewart's name brought up in trade talk. A package of Arcia and Stewart is quite strong for trade talk unless it's for an every day player (SS?) or front line starter and RP. Great to see Kepler continuing to hit, average staying strong at 331, showing some muscle last night. Twins be crazy to trade this Guy, best player on Lookouts and should be moved up. I'd trade Rosario before Kepler in a heartbeat. He should be on the u touchable list with Buxton Sano and Berrios. Speaking of Berrios, I saw the other night he picked another runner off 1st. This Guy hold's runners better than anyone I've ever seen. Berrios and Turner behind the plate is a deadly combo for any base runner. Last, Meyer, I just don't get it. Goes from all world to all ....... (you fill in the blanks). I'm hanging this on the coaches.
  19. Great to see our catchers turning it on. I'm holding out hope for Turner, terrific skills behind the plate. Calls a great game and pitchers seem to trust him from the games I saw him play Now with his bat coming around, he should be in discussion to move up to AAA.
  20. In case no one has noticed, Stuart Turner is batting 314 over his last 10 games. Just going about his business, hope he can keep it up.
  21. Pardon my dinger thinks you're a spy but I'm thinking you're the real deal. Twin fans are all over the country. I'm in Atlanta. Welcome aboard Feel free to post your Red Wings games that you attend. We all look forward to observations.
  22. I'd leave Kepler out of it. All the rest, yes. Kepler to me, has too much potential, he's a really good 2 way player.
  23. Arcia has been up for couple of years now and he still plays lousy D. He seems to be too 1 dimensional. Can't believe Molitor would have much confidence sending him out as a late inning replacement. My guess is they keep him down as long as possible to clean up his D.
  24. Zach Jones and JT Chargois maybe wearing down because of last year's injuries, especially Chargois with TJ surgery. Hopefully they can bounce back.
