    Yes. Please select Lackey if he is available. Picking # 3 this year is win - win- win. I never thought I would write the following sentence but.... The Twins have numerous young pitching prospects and OF prospects and SS prospects. (Maybe I wrote this because I have just drunk the Kool Aid.). Draft this promising catcher, who apparently checks every box that exists for a prospective MLB catcher.

    Bring up Oliver to catch. Neither of the Twins' current catchers are major league worthy. I have got to stop watching this game today and do something fun. I'm going for a walk. I do like the way the Pirates play baseball. The Pirates may become my new favorite team after my 70 years of gloom, despair and misery of pulling for the Washington Senators and the Minnesota Twins.

    Why not?

    I had to pause after I had perused Matt's perfectly pithy prose so I could pursue the purported definition of "parse".

    The way SWR has been pitching, would require the 1927 Yankees for winning run support.

    Plus the fact that there may be an MLB shut down in 2027, would be a consideration for any team wanting to trade for Ryan. That fact lessens Ryan's value as far as assuming he is "under control" in 2027. Prospects will always be "possibilities". The Joe Ryan Experience is not a possibility, but rather the real deal for this season and in 2027. The argument that Joe "might get hurt" can apply to every player, including the valuable prospects received for Joe in a trade.

    We'd be first in scoring runs in the AL if we had a Right Fielder who could hit. Leave Martin in RF, release Outman and bring up Mendez or Gonzales.

    Accurate and dryly funny summary of an unusual game. Thanks Steven.

    Great post. Good to be reminded about the up-coming July draft, where there are several SS's, a pitcher and a catcher in the consensus top 5 as of this date. Quite the conundrum.

    Tom, It's good to read again an article written by you. Don't be a stranger. Royce doesn't do slumps and i don't do podcasts.

    I do not believe that an article in Twins Daily is bad luck for the subject of the article. I do believe that an article in Sports Illustrated does definitely jinx the subject of the article. It is an empirically proven fact.

    I enjoy articles about Twins prospects, especially ones who have had little publicity like Reyes and McDaniel. Thanks.

    These injuries have got to be discouraging for Emma. Hopefully these injuries have created a desire to live every day to the fullest and an appreciation for the good days which are to come. Frankly, today is the best day ever. It's the only one we really have. Have a reflective Memorial Day.

    My bad. Sorry for the angst my poor spilling caused. Really.

    Someone should have drilled Contreras.
  16. tarheeltwinsfan
    Contreras was trying to intimidate Bradley earlier in the game. Then Contreras intentionally hit Clemmons' foot as Contreras slid head first into first base. But Contreras' actions were to no avail. I liked Trevor Plouffe's comments about the actions of Contreras and reactions of Bradley before the Contreras hit on Caratini at home plate. Contreras wanted to be all bad, so I was glad to see him boot the grounder later in the game. Karma is a bitch. Or as Plouffe said, "The ball will find you".

    I really liked Arcia's throw to the SS to start the double play. It was quick, crisp and accurate.
  18. tarheeltwinsfan
    I love this game called baseball.
  19. tarheeltwinsfan
    I agree with this post 100%.
  20. tarheeltwinsfan
    Really good article that sums up where the Twins stand today. Let's keep riding this roller coaster and just hang on and enjoy the view and try not to puke.
  21. tarheeltwinsfan
    Why not?
  22. tarheeltwinsfan
    OK Sorry. I misunderstood. I guess Royce was demoted to improve the Twins team and to give Royce a chance to learn how to hit again int he minor leagues where there is less pressure on him to produce.
  23. tarheeltwinsfan
    I would add Henry Mendez to this list of possible top 100 additions. His hitting is phenomenal.
  24. tarheeltwinsfan
    The jersey giveaway day for Lewis will be in St. Paul.
  25. tarheeltwinsfan
    Garcia and Banda. Please.
