That is very fancy, sorry for duplicating. I saw it featured, but I thought it was for the draft itself, not related to signings.

Yes, the Twins should absolutely be in on Thor (even if they use him out of the pen). Trading for him now increases the likelihood he stays with them beyond this year, too. What would he cost? That’s the question. Off to go look up baseballtradevalues… …and now back. Thor is valued at 4.5. Twins could offer Julien (2.4) and Hajjar (2.4) and that would be considered an even trade according to that site. The closest individual players in terms of value would appear to be: Canterino 5.3 Miller 4.8 Balazovic. 3.5

Here’s the mlb.com page where all signings for the Twins 2022 draftees are listed. They have until August 1 to sign all of their picks. https://www.mlb.com/news/twins-2022-draft-signings-tracker?t=mlb-draft-coverage No one has signed yet, but have to assume Brooks Lee will sign soon - will he get slot of $5.4mm? It’s also assumed that Connor Prielipp might get more than the $1.6mm slot. Starting this thread to keep track of the signings and to discuss. Copying the top ten picks from mlb.com: 1 (8): Brooks Lee, SS, Cal Poly (Pick value: $5,442,400) Has not yet agreed to terms 2 (48): Connor Prielipp, LHP, Alabama (Pick value: $1,622,700) Has not yet agreed to terms CBB (68): Tanner Schobel, SS, Virginia Tech (Pick value: $1,002,000) Has not yet agreed to terms 4 (114): Andrew Morris, RHP, Texas Tech (Pick value: $533,300) Has not yet agreed to terms 5 (144): Ben Ross, SS, Notre Dame College (OH) (Pick value: $398,500) Has not yet agreed to terms 6 (174): Jorel Ortega, 2B, Tennessee (Pick value: $301,200) Has not yet agreed to terms 7 (204): Kyle Jones, RHP, Toledo (Pick value: $235,600) Has not agreed to terms 8 (234): Zebby Matthews, RHP, Western Carolina (Pick value: $187,900) Has not agreed to terms 9 (264): Cory Lewis, RHP, UC Santa Barbara (Pick value: $164,100) Has not agreed to terms 10 (294): Dalton Shuffield, SS, Texas Tech (Pick value: $153,800) Has not agreed to terms

Twins have Baltimore right where they want ‘em.

Anyone else in favor of picking up 1.5 games on the Guardians today?

Yes

I’d be totally onboard a Neto pick. He’s batted over 400 each of the last two seasons for Campbell. In the NCAA regionals in three games against Georgia Tech and Tennessee, he went 7 for 13 with 3 doubles and 3 walks, including going 2-2 with a double against Chase Dollander. (He also got a hit and a walk off of Marquis Grissom Jr). He also has pitched 25 innings for the team in more than a dozen relief appearances for the Camels, including getting three saves this year. They probably could have used him on the mound in their game against Tennessee - they trailed 8-7 after 8 and then gave up 4 runs in the 9th.

No offense, but this is crazy.

Twins got two years of Paddack for a year of a very good reliever. They’ve already started 7 pitchers in the rotation this year. The trade was worth doing, glad they did it, and I think it will wind up a clear win over two years.

Why wasn’t Duran challenging them with 100+ there?

Stankiewicz has the better nickname, so I’m giving him the nod at #1. Hope that we have this same argument every month all season…

My son notes that he can only throw 48.

The sound of Duran warming in the pen is loud.

Can’t imagine they overturn it.
