March 22, 201412 yr Earlier this week from the minor league fields at Fort Myers. '87 and '91 rings on. Does not ring a bell. At all. Does anyone know who this gentleman is? Thanks.
March 22, 201412 yr Notorious mouth-breather Jim Rantz? http://www.gannett-cdn.com/-mm-/4fb4c62d6ee9a6befed5f06cd315fb021f54864b/c=0-0-680-510&r=x404&c=534x401/http/archive.kare11.com/images/680/510/2/assetpool/images/121015100213_Jim%20Rantz%20MN%20Twins.jpg

March 22, 201412 yr Closer to a profile view:http://stmedia.startribune.com/images/630*354/ubas0508rantz.jpg Sorry, link only, won't post. Looks even more like him.
March 22, 201412 yr Thank you. That's him. NP. Might have made the connection sooner but he's sporting a more modern 'do. Looks like retirement didn't last very long. Not that they've officially brought him back, but I'll go out on a limb and guess that they're still as interested in what he has to say as he is in how his prospects turn out.
March 22, 201412 yr Author So with Rantz still around, how do we expect this guy (and I am not talking about Rasmussen) to do his job?
March 22, 201412 yr So with Rantz still around, how do we expect this guy (and I am not talking about Rasmussen) to do his job?Yeah, there's a fine line between drawing on the predecessor's corporate knowledge and making the new guy feel like he's on probation the first year.
March 22, 201412 yr who is the guy with Rasmussen? That's not Brad Steil. And, Steil can do his job just fine. Tom Kelly is always around and it doesn't effect Gardy.
March 22, 201412 yr Author who is the guy with Rasmussen? That's not Brad Steil. I thought it was Steil. My bad. Anyone has any idea who that is?
March 23, 201412 yr I thought it was Steil. My bad. Anyone has any idea who that is? You and I were on the same page Thrylos as far as who the guy in the picture is. I'm not sure how the system works with Steil and Rantz, but the Twins' minor league system has been producing really well over the last few years. Whatever works.
