    Yes. SD Buhr is my "evil twin"... or I'm his evil twin... bit of a split personality, I guess.

    Glad someone else felt this way. I'd kind of avoided the "Drafting an ACE" thread because I freely admit I know very little about what the Twins should/shouldn't do with the draft.

    As for Buxton,...

    I won't speak for Roger, but here's what I took from it. $550,000 is no small amount, but when you consider what it will provide to a guy over, say, the course of his likely working years (40-45...

    Keep in mind, the Angels seem to have a very different philosophy these days regarding their prospects than the Twins do. Even so, Mike Trout was still 17 years old when he signed with them in July...

    Sure, it's good money either way. But I think the point is that it's not an easy decision to make.

    I think that's a fair question.

    As a Kernels fan and someone who's reporting on the team, I'd naturally love to see Buxton in town all season long.

    But part of the fun of being a fan of an...

    It's not that black and white to you and me, I agree. But that's what the scouting department is for. TR and his folks decide who the best player available is. Sure, sometimes it may be a virtual...

    I dunno. Looked at a replay in the bar earlier and it didn't look like a terrible pitch. Sometimes a good hitter wins the battle. Get 'em tomorrow.
