    Since when is "look selfish" a BAD thing?

    "While Ozzy has been scouted and in the not so distant past regarded quite favorable as an ideal RF" Wow! What are the odds of the words "ideal RF" being used to describe Arcia? About the same odds as the words "fabulous haircut" being used to describe him.

    Maybe Kohl Stewart is re-directing his career path back to college quarterback.

    Sano may prefer infield to outfield, but I'll bet he doesn't prefer DH to outfield.

    My common sense tells me that your "little birdie" is full of bird bleep. I've never met anyone Sano's age, size, speed, arm-strength and agility who doesn't want to show the world his athleticism. Do you think Anthony Barr (6'5", 255 lbs)wants to play Nose-Tackle for the Vikings?

    If buying low and selling high was easy, EVERYONE would be rich. I don't think everyone is rich. That's NOT because the strategy is unknown.

    Yeah, I overstated my objections to Prospect rankings. Let me back up to just say that there are many non-prospect success stories. I am a fan, but not necessarily a true believer.

    IMO, OF is a less stressful position because your pre-pitch thought process is limited to preparing to throw TWO base ahead of the lead runner on a single and ONE base ahead of the lead runner on a caught fly ball. Infielders have much more complex decisions to prepare for in the pre-pitch thought process. Extra stress can cause confused thinking.

    But you CAn have it both ways with different people. Some people (Santana) let position changes get into their heads. Other people (hopefully Sano) let NOTHING get into their heads. I'll bet Miguel Cabrera could play shortstop, where he would obviously stink defensively, and still hit .350. I'll bet Aaron Hicks could play shortstop, where he would be slightly better than Cabrera, but would hit below .100, and have Suicide Hot Line on speed dial.

    It's SIMPLE! The Twins are trying to find out if Santana hits better as a full-time outfielder (see 2014) than he does as part-time SS (see 2015). Once they determine that, his career path will be clarified.

    Prospect ratings are nearly meaningless. Try t find Matt Duffy of the Giants on ANY Prospect Rating...
