    Cody, Thanks for this interesting list. Does this rating system also mean that these should be the top 5 players whom the Twins should keep? That's the way I look at it. Hurray for Kep having an outstanding season. I hope he will frequently hit to the left side as long as teams put the shift on him.

    Nice Dave. Thanks for the laughs.

    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.
  6. tarheeltwinsfan
    I agree.
  7. tarheeltwinsfan
    I appreciate your proposal.

    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.

    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. .

    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

    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.

    Amen RJA. I agree 100%. This is one of the main reasons I enjoy being a Twins fan.

    Thanks for your insightful reply.

    Good points. Thank you.

    Thank you for this info and insight.

    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?

    I think you may be right Snoop D O double G.

    I missed that ABBA reference the first time I read this post. That was very clever.

    Even though I would have chosen Parada with the Twins first pick, I understand why Lee was ranked higher in every prospect ranking. I do have every confidence in the people who fashioned the 2021 draft and therefore I have the same confidence in the 2022 draft selections. Now about the lack of highly ranked catching prospects.... Who, if anyone is left to be selected today at catcher?
