June 11, 20206 yr Garrett Crochet also belongs in this conversation. What is your Pete Crow-Armstrong stance?
June 11, 20206 yr Incidental note:Man, oh man, the draft is slow in the early rounds. Like, I'm prepared for it to be slow every year I take the time to follow the first round in real time, and I'm still struck by how slow it moves.
June 11, 20206 yr A bat. BTW, and this counts for nothing, but in the OOTP season simulation I opened up, our self-same Twins drafted Sabato... in the second round.
June 11, 20206 yr Was hoping for some pitching that might have slipped. Great power, but where will he play? Reminds me of a less field capable Matt Wallner. Would have rather had Wilcox, Miller, Beeter (or lob a call to the agent of Jared Kelley to see what he would cost).
June 11, 20206 yr So another college hitter, this time in the vein of Brent Rooker... eh. The Falvine regime sure loves their strong hitters, especially when measuring exit velocity.
June 11, 20206 yr Right handed version of Matt Adams? I just looked up Matt Adams on baseball ref. His number one player comp is CJ Cron so the world makes sense once again.
June 11, 20206 yr twins probably need to trade at least one of their power 1b/of players before 2021 season starts..... I hope these guys can show their potential in the minors sooner rather than later
June 11, 20206 yr What is your Pete Crow-Armstrong stance? Good bloodlines. Son of Twins legend Lou Collins and Twins wunderkind Billy Heywood's mom.
June 11, 20206 yr A lot of those college pitchers mentioned in the mid-late first round ended up slipping out of the round. It'll be interesting to see how long they last. The Padres' competitive balance round pick was born on 9/11 (the infamous one.)
June 11, 20206 yr Good bloodlines. Son of Twins legend Lou Collins and Twins wunderkind Billy Heywood's mom. Or at least half of that combo!! Ha!
June 11, 20206 yr Not that it matters, but my sense (and maybe little birdies of sorts) is that if the A's hadn't taken Soderstrom with the 26th pick, the Twins would have taken him.
June 11, 20206 yr Ha! I just thought to myself that might be the least intimidating name of a big-time prospect I've ever heard, lol. Any relation to the Torkelson that played running back for the Packers and Peter Tork of the Monkeys? If there is, he's less intimidating.
