    triple headers?

    Agree to disagree. Im not going to respond to your trolling just because you use bold. i was simply giving my opinion on what i think the twins would do and some observations from the game which i watched on a shi//y feed on an ipad. What is so wrong with making a few starts in AAA? He made very few starts between AA and AFL (16 before AFL last year) last year.

    Yes but the line looks much better than the actual product. This isn't fantasy baseball here. He has a lot he can still work on down on the farm. He isn't that close to the majors imo because of service time and not being on the 40. Could he come up and struggle, sure. But that doesnt make much sense at this time. Would the cardinals do that? No. Would the rays do that? No. If he keeps up this pace, he might be up by July, but no sooner. When he comes up, he needs to be up for good. Every 24 year old has improvements he can make.

    Watched on first pitch app. Alot of called third strikes...like 8 if im not mistaken. He missed his spots alot from what i could see. Still a great outing, other club was pretty weak. High pitch count. Rob antony was there and will also see his next start.

    Jackson would be like Myers in that he was moved from behind the plate to a corner OF spot because his bat would advance faster than his catching skills. I think you take him, you think he can be a catcher. You let him develop at Josmil Pinto type pace because you can afford to wait. Myers, to me, is nothing that special. A guy who can hit and hit for decent power, but those guys come around much more often than a catcher who is passable at the plate.

    Good problem to have. How about arcia in center? Might be the worst defensive of ever...like in history...but they sure would hit some dingers like kent murphy #checkoutthisvideo

    Exciting about Crawford. Two drafts ago I wanted the twins to take best pitcher available. Last year i was hoping for best pitcher available, this year I would like the twins to take best pitcher available. I have an eerie feeling that the twins will take Jackson because top 4 arms will be gone. If that happens I think all twins fans would be bummed we didnt get ace potential just like we were with buxton. Hopefully after two years we will admitting our own ignorance to the draft process and praising the twins. If Jackson is the next Wil Myer, are we happy? I think so.

    7. Philadelphia Phillies — Alex Jackson, C/OF, Rancho Bernardo HS (CA) With arguably the top-four pitchers off the board, I think the Twins would go after the best prep bat in the 2014 MLB draft. Jackson is a 6’-2”, 200 pound right-hander with enormous power, excellent bat speed and an advanced approach at the plate. He has all of the tools to stick at catcher, but most feel a move to the outfield is likely because of the offensive upside. Through 20 games, he is hitting .414/.590/.965 with eight home runs and has drawn 16 walks to six strikeouts. He also has been hit by a pitch nine times. Committed to Oregon. That is the write up for the Phillies. I wonder if perhaps the author meant to make Jackson the Twins selection. I just don't see the Twins taking Gordon even with the bloodlines, especially when pitching is so hard to come by (see 48 million for Nolasco). Also, hard to trust a site who can't see a mistake in the top 10, first sentence no less of the number 7 pick...just saying.

    Whoever picks rodon is going to have to shut him down after his college coaches have continuously threatened his future. He actual threw 135 pitches...he has averaged like 125 the last three weeks. I wonder how that helps/hurts his stock.

    Escobar at 3rd today?
  11. Twins Twerp
    If anyone gets called up from the minors it will probably be kris Johnson as he is a lefty and on the 40 (i think). The other option is May as he is also on the 40. We wont see Meyer for awhile because of super 2 status. No need to rush him. Mid july is more luckily. I would prefer to bring him up like the cardinals do, stick him in bullpen this year.

    Ya it was that part where Jonah Hill was whispering to the Indians gm about getting on base and he says doesnt matter how. Moneyball=sabrmetrics. Or it was in Genisis 1: "And on the seventh day God said it doesnt really matter how you get on base, so long as you are on first base after thou at bat."

    Hijacking...bench florimon
  14. Twins Twerp
    But seriously no way would i pick walberg. We need a big italian. A big bearded italian. How about that guy "pussy" from sopranos (no clue what his name is). Lets face it, if its a sports movie it would have to be costner. I could see it. Or maybe a kevin james
  15. Twins Twerp
    I want one of the top four pitchers...but just see a scenario where any of them fall. This season again shows how hard it is to find pitchers. You dont go sign a collabello quality player as a starter. Hitters like jackson are easier to develop than a mid 90s fb. We'll see what happens with hoffman because that would take jacson off the board. Don't sleep on aaron nola either as he is a twins pitcher with some velo

    Big day tomorrow for pitchers...milb.tv app will be on fire
  17. Twins Twerp

  20. Twins Twerp
    When does a mancrush turn into a full fledged love triangle?
  21. Twins Twerp
    Because it is just an average ranking of analysts. Obp has nothing to do with it...maybe they watch the pitching staff and assume the record cant last...which it cant
  22. Twins Twerp
    Boom. Take that longoria
  23. Twins Twerp
    Do you think we could get pelfrey to pine tar his neck. He needs to try something...steroids and foreign substances are what i recommend...and working slower
  24. Twins Twerp
    Balfour is definitely divergent
  25. Twins Twerp
    Didnt we know that already #everypelfreystart
