Article: Minnesota Twins Day 2 Draft Picks (Rounds 3-10)
I'm certainly no expert, but he looked okay. Fastball (looked straight) 91-95 and a medium to big slow breaker (controlled it well) 75-79. I don't believe he got any Ks but the home fans thought he was getting squeezed, shocking I'm sure .

Article: Twins Select Nick Burdi in the 2nd round
I was hoping they'd take him in the 2nd after watching him last weekend. His slider looked nasty.

The Dazzle Man... Not So Dazzling Tonight
I don't want to take this off track, but man I miss sitting on the lake at dusk and listening to Herb Carneal call a game, and Ray Christensen calling Gopher sports as well while I'm at it. I even miss little moments of down time where you were allowed to hear the buzz of the crowd in the background.

2014 MLB Draft Thread
You guys follow this stuff a lot closer than I do, but if one of the goals is to add LHPs and they have a chance to add someone on the level of Rodon, they wouldn't pass on him would they? oops, Looks like I hit the wrong button again. I was replying to InfraRen's Gammons quote from a GM.

Article: Twins Draft Preview: Trea Turner

Article: Twins MLB Draft Profile: Kris Bryant, 3B/1B
In 3/4 years? lf/cf-Buxton, cf/lf-Hicks, rf-Arcia, of/dh-Kepler, 3b/1b-Sano, ss-?, 2b-Rosario, 1b/3b-Bryant, c-Mauer, dh/c/of-Pinto/Walker, ut-Beresford? Obviously no-one knows which of these young guys will live up to their potential (and who may take their place as prospects) but man what potential they will have. Even without a possible addition of Bryant.

Molitor's Thoughts On Some Minor Leaguers
Hopefully Sano can stick at 3rd. I love a 3rd baseman with a cannon arm and a little agility. He's definitely with the right manager imo.

Neal: Twins interested in Rich Harden
I've always been a fan of a healthy Harden. Bullpen or starter hopefully the Twins can get lucky this time and he holds up. Assuming he signs here of course.

Article: Twins still seeking third base help?
I'd lke to see them give Plouffe the year at third and concentrate on improving the middle infield defense. Is it possible that hey feel Plouffe is the type that needs direct competition in order to play his best or force hmself to improve?

Hearts?!
Forgot one of these:cool:

Hearts?!
So, are you saying you Fonzie my idea, or are you telling me to sit on it?

Hearts?!
How about a little Fonzie head for a like and maybe a little Ralph Malph head for a dislike? If you're neutral you could use the Big Al head.

Edwin Jackson's "very cool" market offers opportunity
I like Lohse. Just put a steel door on Gardy's office and rest a few rubber bats against the wall outside of it. Problem solved .
