    Eades has a weird line today 5 IP 7 strike outs 2 walks. 1 hr 4 ground outs. 1 hr But 9 hits. I'm starting to wonder about the quality of the defense in Cedar Rapids. I haven't seen them play at all but....thats a lot b of balls that dropped for a hit. Usually when a guy gets 7 SO he has stuff good enough to limit runs. I wonder what's going on down there

    I'm OK with Gardy's comments about Hicks. I dont think he crossed a line. It was Antony who went overboard with his comments.
  3. clutterheart
    Whats up with Felix Jorge? Any insight to the youngsters struggles? 8 home runs not getting strike outs and is very hittable.
  4. clutterheart
    Exactly I don't mind Gardy's comments. But the things Antony said to media are unforgivable. Why he is talking to the media about how how Hicks doesn't know the opposing pitcher?!!? Antony should know better.

    Goodrum is having a better year than I expected. He is slugging .402 with 0 Home Runs! He is leading the team with 7 SB, but I would like to see more of that
  6. clutterheart
    Agree. Which is why I would have no problem with them going crazy on position players and college arms as some good guys might fall as teams try to load up. This draft is an opportunity to get some position players as other team goes for arms

    Rosario has only 14 games left of his suspension! I would hope he is down in EST getting in game shape

    Aderlin Mejia - Has anyone from the Twins said why they demoted him? Was it his D? I am having a hard time understanding why AJ Peterson is playing SS there instead of this kid. Peterson seems far worse.

    What kind of hypothetical is this? Its the best time to be a MN sports fan: Twins? Locked in Vikings? Locked in T-Wolves? Locked in Wild? Locked in If you only follow the big 4 sports, you don't have to worry about this for decades! But I supposed the gopher basketball team could move to North Dakota...that would be interesting

    Really? You think of him as a future big leaguer? He is about to get passed again by Polanco and possibly Goodrum. For me that title only fits if you include everyperson in the Minor League System

    Harrison has had a nightmare of a May. Has he been injured? 33 AB 3 Hits .081/.205/.108 Yuck! All 3 of his hits came over the last few games. So hopefully he has corrected what was wrong.
  12. clutterheart
    No. They don't play him at SS so he has to compete with a slew of potentially good guys at 2B. He's hitting well after two years of playing poorly. He needs at least 2 years of sustained goodness before he regains consideration in the top 40 Twins Prospects.

    Maybe this isnt the place but im curious if you have any insight to as why Montanez has been starting. His numbers are not great this year and last year. Id rather see Landa be a starter
  14. clutterheart
    2 reasons why Wheeler will NEVER make it as MN twin: 1 - Too Smart. Once the FO learns about the law degree he will be shipped off first chance they get 2 - Doesn't Call Matt Koch "Matty"

    Also need to give Bill Smith Credit for taking the risk and shelling out the money for these guys. That 2009 class is impressive and I doubt Ryan would've spent on Sano, Kepler AND Polanco. Smith might be the 2nd worst GM in Minnesota Sports History (David Kahn reigns supreme here) but he would step up and spend when had to.
  16. clutterheart
    Wonder if Landa is being stretched out to go back as a Starter. Slegers and Edaes are two candidates to promote.
  17. clutterheart
    I would rather Meyer get a chance.
  18. clutterheart
    Naming Darnell over Meyer smells like contrarianism to me. Darnell is an OK mid level prospect having a nice April. Meyer is dominating striking guys out at a high rate and keeping guys off base.
  19. clutterheart
    Polanco's D at SS is not AA ready. Why send him up there to boot balls around? His valve as a SS is extraordinarily high. If he is able to master the SS position, he will become a top 20 MLB prospect. If he can't he is probably in the Top 50 range. I say, keep him at High A and let him work on his D while continuing to feast on High A pitching. If he can't cut it there defensively, send him up to AA as a second baseman.

    Rosario has a left flexor mass sprain? Hope its not a ucl problem.
  21. clutterheart
    This should be very easy as I have never heard a single person even suggest this. Has anyone? Florimon has one tool that is MLB caliber - defense, and One tool that is barley AA caliber - offense. Unfortunately, baseball is mostly a 2-way sport. Twins would be crazy to not try and find a player who can play both ways at an MLB level. Is Nunez the guy? I don't know. But Florimon is not the answer to our SS problems. He is the problem.
  22. clutterheart
    Maybe its time Diamond gets put on the DL, sent to FM and find himself a bit. He is better than he has shown. Gilmartin and Dean are two guys who wouldn't be stretched to be at AAA. Kepler is showing life the past two games, good too see.
  23. clutterheart
    Eades had 8 hits, 2 BB and 0 ground outs. I expected better from a High 2nd Round College pitcher. Past 2nd Rnd Twins Pitchers: 2009 - Bill Bullock 2011 - Madison Boer 2012 - Mason Melotakis & JT Chargois 2013 - Eades So...maybe I am wrong and I should expect him to struggle.
  24. clutterheart
    Right, he is a fly ball pitcher with a propensity for the HR balls. Keeping guys off base is needed. I would like to his his Batting Ave Against go down, its not terrible now, but not great
  25. clutterheart
    If Polanco can play serviceable D at SS and continue to show excellent plate discipline hit he could become a top 30 MLB prospect at years end. That 2009 Class of international signings looks to be pretty great. It could be the best thing Bill Smith did for the Twins organization.
