I met Harmon after he retired and he was the most genuine, humble man, so mindful of and grateful for the attention he received from the fans. I took my step-daughter to the dome and we walked down to the rail to take a picture of Kirby. He waved at her and she fumbled with the camera and became flustered. He motioned for her to calm down and kept waving until she could take the picture. I'll take either one of them in a heartbeat miss the feeling I used to get when they stepped to the plate in a key situation.
Weren't some posters on this site calling Diaz "another Twins draft bust" as recently as this off season? I think so. I just hope the same ones aren't the ones bemoaning his loss today.
They should be sellers, buyers, brokers, intermediaries, facilitators and any other possibility. Not sure why any option should be dismissed out of hand at this point.
[twitter] 6th-rder Sawyer Gipson-Long signs with @Twins for $215k (pick 179 value = $274,800). Mercer RHP, lean frame, hit 95 mph late in spring, changeup is best secondary pitch. @MLBDraft — Jim Callis (@jimcallisMLB) June 15, 2019
