July 18, 201214 yr Author think Beloit is short 2 players if Goncalves is promoted. Only counted 24 with him, so maybe it is 2Matthew Tomshaw was activated. It shows on the website he's still DL'd, he'd be number 24 now that Goncalves is gone.
July 18, 201214 yr Jonathan Goncalves going from Beloit to Fort Myers. Not sure how he fits (roster was at 25 after previous promotions). Would guess Tosoni to New Britain. Let the Kepler to Beloit speculation begin!Did you have Salcedo going back on the DL?
July 18, 201214 yr Matthew Tomshaw was activated. It shows on the website he's still DL'd, he'd be number 24 now that Goncalves is gone.Tomshaw pitched in the GCL again today with a 1-2-3 inning.
July 18, 201214 yr Author Did you have Salcedo going back on the DL?Yeah. They were at 25 after the moves earlier this week. The only news involving Fort Myers today was Goncalves moving up. They played early today, so I'm guessing news will be coming out soon about who they promoted. New Britain is in need too, after today's moves, they only have 22 guys on their roster.
July 18, 201214 yr Author Tomshaw pitched in the GCL again today with a 1-2-3 inning.That's interesting... This from the Snappers Twitter feed yesterday: Tuesday Roster Moves: Summers & Dempster promoted to Ft. Myers, Bryant to DL, Tomshaw activated, Zack Jones & Mason Melotakis added
July 18, 201214 yr Yeah. They were at 25 after the moves earlier this week. The only news involving Fort Myers today was Goncalves moving up. They played early today, so I'm guessing news will be coming out soon about who they promoted. New Britain is in need too, after today's moves, they only have 22 guys on their roster.I have them at 25 right now, after Goncalves arriving. P: Achter, Boer, Bowen, Dean, Dempster, Fuentes, Gonzalez, Hauser, Munoz, Nelson, Stuifbergen, Summers, TonkinC: Knudson, PintoIF: Gonzales, Hidalgo, Leer, Michael, SantanaOF: Goncalves, Morales, Ortiz, Rams, Ray I think Tosoni is only there as a rehab assignment - he's still listed on New Britain's roster as being on the DL.
July 18, 201214 yr Author I think Tosoni is only there as a rehab assignment - he's still listed on New Britain's roster as being on the DL.That would make sense. I saw this on the Miracle Twitter feed: Miracle add OF Rene Tosoni to active roster for today's game. I guess for him to be officially added to their roster, his option would have had to be transferred, which I haven't seen. Regardless, the Rockcats will need to get guys from somewhere...
July 18, 201214 yr I would expect Rosario to be back in Beloit soon. He looks pretty good after the plastic surgery...
July 18, 201214 yr ...interesting that the 2 former StPaul Saints moved to AAA very fastOnce you've had baseballs delivered by a pig, you've got the right attitude to pitch in the bigs.
July 18, 201214 yr Once you've had baseballs delivered by a pig, you've got the right attitude to pitch in the bigs.Then all the Twins minor league affiliates need to use farm animals as ball delivery vehicles; this could be a new revolution in player development that catches on league-wide.
July 19, 201214 yr The Lehmann over Chris Hermann promotion is pure Twins. Tho Danny is condsiderd the orgnizations best defensive C, why is this a reason for a promotion (is anyone on that roster worth developing??) .225/.304/.310 in 68 AAA gms (213ABs) with a .211/.294/.268 line in 142gms (426ABs) in AA This is another reason how the Twins admit that AAA is about the hack players & they keep their important players in New Brit
July 19, 201214 yr Author I think Tosoni is only there as a rehab assignment - he's still listed on New Britain's roster as being on the DL.BA lists Tosoni as being transferred to Ft Myers.
July 19, 201214 yr BA lists Tosoni as being transferred to Ft Myers.That's what they did with Benson too.
July 19, 201214 yr Tosoni is in the New Britain lineup tonight. Love that four OF mix of Hicks, Arcia, Benson and Tosoni for the four positions (including DH)...
July 21, 201214 yr Tosoni is in the New Britain lineup tonight. Love that four OF mix of Hicks, Arcia, Benson and Tosoni for the four positions (including DH)...I'd like it more if two of them hadn't seen big league time last year and are now two levels lower.
July 24, 201214 yr Anyone know why Rogers is getting the chance to start but the rest of the pitchers at E'ton drafted this year (and almost all have been impressive in their small sample size!) have all gotten relief duty? I'm not sure about the other pitchers work loads prior to the draft, but so far Rogers is the only member of the 2012 E'ton draft class who has been pushed for innings.

And keep Herrmann motivated to make the playoffs with the future outfield.
July 24, 201214 yr carson would be the perfect 4th outfielder for the stretch, letting the Twins look more at Mastro. Plus, he'd fill a 40-man spot that could be jettisoned in the fall. Tosoni and Benson will both stick with New Britain as they head for the playoffs, probably. All three will start with Rochester next year...with Tosoni possibly coming off the 40-man roster.

All three will start with Rochester next year...with Tosoni possibly coming off the 40-man roster.Why does Mastro need to be "looked at" more? he's a 4th outfielder who can run and play all 3 spots. That's realized already. I'm for getting a corner outfielder to the bigs that can the dang ball out, rather than slash/dash. Twins are already littered with too many of them. Take last night. Dozier hitting sixth, with "weaker" guys 7-9 Only with the Twins.
July 24, 201214 yr Jose Gonzalez moving up to New Britain.Steve Liddle moving back up to Ft. Myers. Good for Gonzalez; plenty of opps for relievers to move up. Liddle is running out of time.
July 25, 201214 yr Good for Gonzalez; plenty of opps for relievers to move up. Liddle is running out of time.No, he's got a lifetime contract cause he's in the country club.....by relation
July 27, 201214 yr DJ Baxendale and Taylor Rogers (starting today) to Beloit form E-town and Chris Mazza to E-town from the GCL
July 27, 201214 yr Matt Hauser from Fort Myers bullpen to New Britain's bullpen.outstanding....definately about time. Wonder if he'll get any starts in New Brit (1.55ERA in 6 starts)Wonder if they will fill in the empty Ft Myers spot with Jason Wheeler (12 Beloit Ws) Edited July 27, 201214 yr by greengoblinrulz
July 27, 201214 yr Steven Evans was released. 13th round pick last season played with Etown and Beloit this season. LHP with 11.4 K/9 in the 2 levels this season (12 K/9 in Beloit). Sounds strange but I have seen the Twins doing stranger things in the minors this season.

Sounds strange but I have seen the Twins doing stranger things in the minors this season.Seems like we'll be reading something in the police blotter about this, although Beloit is in WI so there might be a lot to comb through. Getting cut only 9 innings into a promotion is pretty strange otherwise.
July 27, 201214 yr 13 hits in 10 innings at Eliz, ERA 5.4, 5 walks to go with 12 Ks 8 hits in 9 innings at Beloit 5 more walks ERA of 4 not exactly a stud letting go.
