    Major - What is your view about the Petty for Gray trade? I really like Sonny Gray, but I feel the price of Petty will prove to be too high.

    When Cleveland plays Chicago this year, I submit the Twins fans should hope for a split. I also find myself pulling for the team with the worse record. By the way, another nice article. You have not been writing as much lately. Maybe tied up in a trial?

    Pitching, pitching, pitching.

    Good post. Sabato may do well in Colorado.

    If I were GM for an expansion club and could pick one player from the Twins for the next season, I would choose Correa. His fielding at the KEY defensive position is the best I have ever seen.
  6. tarheeltwinsfan
    I agree.
  7. tarheeltwinsfan
    I appreciate your proposal.

    Interestingly, I also am an old guy and I too agree with Mike Link. Reminds me of a rally cry: "Old Guys of America: Untie !"

    And this comment is why I would not have traded Petty,

    Outstanding work Jamie. Thank you.

    I feel great about Chase Petty? Oh never mind.
  12. tarheeltwinsfan
    Good point.

    I met Chris Williams when he was just getting started with his pro career in Elizabethton (RIP -sigh). Chris was a very friendly and personable young man who was excited to be in the Twins organization. We kidded each other about our respective schools (UNC and Clemson). Trevor Larnach was also on that team and he had previously hit a homer to help beat the Tar Heels in the college world series. Trevor didn't smile much, but maybe he was having a bad day. .

    Funny

    The powers that be must have seen something more in him than his batting statistics, because he kept getting promoted even with terrible stats with little, to no, improvement year after year. Sometimes Hamilton wasn't catching much either. If I had a son playing baseball, I would show him Hamilton's batting stats and Hamilton's consistent promotions, and tell my son to be a catcher.

    When you go to San Francisco, wear some flowers in your hair. How's that for opaque? LOL

    Meyer, Stewart and Jay...oh my.

    I was most impressed with Johnson's comments out of all the draftees interviewed. He is a very impressive young man. I wish the Twins had had the opportunity to draft him.
  19. tarheeltwinsfan
    Amen RJA. I agree 100%. This is one of the main reasons I enjoy being a Twins fan.
  20. tarheeltwinsfan
    Thanks for your insightful reply.
  21. tarheeltwinsfan
    Good points. Thank you.
  22. tarheeltwinsfan
    Thank you for this info and insight.
  23. tarheeltwinsfan
    Perfect answer to this question. Kudos.
  24. tarheeltwinsfan
    I liked your phrase: "it seems a lot more reasonable to be hopeful than gleeful." It describes this situation perfectly. Are you a professional writer or a poet? Poets must boil down all phrases and select the perfect words, as you just did. Magnificent.

    I think Prielipp will need a large signing bonus for the Twins to sign him, because if the assessments of Prielipp are accurate, he could bet on himself, and opt to stay another year at Alabama, and become a top 10 draft selection in 2023. Here's hoping the Twins already have this negotiated with Prielipp's agent. QUESTION: Does college baseball have the same rules as college basketball, where if a college basketball player signs with an agent, he becomes ineligible to play collegiately. If not, why the difference?
