November 15, 201214 yr My favorite nickname in all of baseball. My reason for clicking as well. I just love the old time creativity. "Rajah" Hornsby is another one I really like.
November 15, 201213 yr Looks a lot like BJ Upton in his batting practice swing. I'm excited about both him and Berrios. Along with Sano and Rosario they form a good core of players at the low levels and there are others also. It lends a lot of support to the notion that the Twins should be aiming to build a contender for two or three years out. No wonder that Seth Stohls is one such advocate of the Twins taking that approach right now, he knows their minors as good as anyone who writes about it.
November 15, 201213 yr Thanks for the post. I'm excited to see what he can do. I hope his power continues to develop.
November 15, 201213 yr I saw some video of him taking BP this offseason. Wow!! What a strong, quickly, powerful swing.
November 15, 201213 yr Author I saw some video of him taking BP this offseason. Wow!! What a strong, quickly, powerful swing. Is there any way to share that video with the community here? Thanks!
November 15, 201213 yr Author My thought is i hope Buxton can turn out to be an All Star....lets hope Yes, and with two LHH's (Kepler and Rosario) moving up together with Buxton and Sano...the Twins could someday sport a middle-of-the-order something like this: 2. Buxton 3. Rosario 4. Sano 5. Kepler...maybe Hicks leads off and Arcia bats 5 instead of Kepler. This is all years down the road. Even Arcia and Hicks could take a year or two to arrive

November 18, 201213 yr Author MNFanForLife, check out Even his pop-up at the end of the clip ended up in the seats. You betcha Teddy! I have seen this scouting video a bunch of times, and every time I see it I am awed at what he can do. His arm or his speed is probably the most impressive tool right now...But that flash of power potential definitely got him the #1 prospect status going into the draft. Just a miracle that the Twins had him available to draft really
January 17, 201313 yr Does anyone think the Twins will draft a non-pitcher at #4 this June? Sure. If that is the best player available. Early lists have 3 of the top 4 prospects as pitchers so right now it looks like a pitcher but obviously a lot can change.
January 17, 201313 yr Author The two high-school SS's look legit. Think we might get one of those guys ahead of their projected slot?
January 19, 201313 yr Author With Buxton's talent, anything is possible! Anyone see Bux making it out of low-A next summer?
