shoulda built a dome, they do know it rains there, right?

Moran going right after the Twins? Are we off on him?

That was done by moving Span and Revere, not by moving Mauer in the order......imo.

Cool, thanks.....was about to type an odd circuluar thing, but I think your point is valid. Top 25, not top 5.....of course, my general point is also valid, that it is about opportunity, as much as...

No issue....and my 73 assumes he comes up in a week.....

So, 130.....that's why I wanted Gibson up before Deduno.....so he's not burning innings in AAA. He'll have around 57 after his next start.....leaving only 73 for the majors? *

*edited out the rest...

Oh, I get the JD disdain, I never felt it, but I know why others did.

jaspatrick.....nice third post, I agree with everything you said. I posted my other stuff because we just don't know for sure what he wants.....but I suspect you are correct.

So, there is a limit? bummer for this year.....I recall that Seth.

ThePuck, as I told someone on a Vikings' message board the other day, if Mauer followed Mauer in the draft (figure that one out, Doctor), he'd be top 5 in RBI every year. It is about opportunity.

You just made me laugh, and I appreciate the humor, really.

I'm with Seth, I don't recall a Twins' official giving us a number, I'm not sure I recall one even mentioning there being a limit. It seems like speculation to me.

Right, there are both sides to the choice, I agree. College would be waaaaaaaaaaay more fun than minor league baseball. No disagreement there at all. But you have to rationally think about what you...

at this point, I'm not sure what Parmalee's role is....so why not send him down?*

*I am assuming if they send down Hicks, that he is replaced by another CF/OF, still making Parmalee free from...

I've never given a number....so I hope that isn't aimed at me. Also, I think they have not stated one way or the other that he is on a limit, not that I can recall anyway. Given their general...

I said leave it up to him, if he goes to college, good for him. But I'd want him to know what he's giving up in return. What is the fun of college worth? How much are you willing to risk? Ask Matt...

Underslot only works if there is a guy in round 2 to sign, and they succeed in signing him. What are the odd of that working? 20%? 40%? I just think it is too risky to pass on potentially elite...

well, I thought they took more than 1 college reliever last year, my bad. I totally am remembering wrong (though I was mistaken and not thinking only sandwich picks, so maybe I'm not wrong).*

* I...

I have no idea what he is thinking, but if I was advising him, I'd tell him to look at guys that went back to school in the college world, instead of taking the money from the NFL....and then ask him...

Agreed, this would thrill me. If Moran and Bryant went before they pick, the Twins would have an arm that is better than any in their system, an arm that could be up in 2014 at some point.

I said "fair enough...I understand why they made this move"......I don't hate the move, I just would have preferred Gibson. I'm thrilled Hernandez is out of the rotation. I look forward to the day...

Last comment....the rush for me:

I don't like watching bad baseball players. I don't want 2014 to look like this year, which is looking like a complete and utter waste of a year. The sooner the...

Fair enough, I guess. At least they pulled the plug on Hernandez, that's a start.

I would have preferred Gibson, and I think Albers has maybe, maybe earned it more, but I understand why they made...

again, thankfully I'm on mute. I've not asked for that, but I can understand your frustration with my posts here. I'll take a break, but then people need to not ask me questions.....

This is reasonable skepticism, btw. I would not see this being wrong, for sure.
