KC bullpen: 6.1 innings 1 run allowed MN bullpen: 3 innings 6 runs allowed Duffey is way overrated Pressly does not belong in major league right now

Hughes and Gibson should be long relievers.

Santana Mejia Berrios Gibson Santiago Gibson could move down to #5 if Santiago performs better

Grossman is an on-base machine, I would like to see him and Mauer hit in front of Sano & Vargas especially if Dozier is traded.

Escobar is NOT below average defensive shortstop, he is rather good defensively at this position. If Polanco cannot hit, Escobar would be an excellent candidate to replace Dozier if he's traded. I would like to see Escobar play everyday for the Twins. Escobar could also be in Twins long term plans, why not? He is also a team player and well-liked in the club house. He could provide leadership like Dozier.

I certainly would not want Duffey to be the 9th inning guy

Turley and Wilk are not major league pitchers period.

Cubs is not Twins. Cubs is a big market team and its owner is willing to spend to win. Drafting best possible pitchers and developing might be the best way for our Twins to field a contending team. Good pitching usually beats good hitting right?

I don't know how many talented young players left to be drafted by the Twins in order to make this draft get a passing grade.

Pitching should be the first priority. I understand the need to lure talents for the latter picks. In this case, Gore should be the one they drafted #1.

While it may not be cheapness, it is certainly a failed draft.

I am not saying the current draft would have any impact this season. I just want to make it clear the Twins need pitching, pitching and more pitching. The reason why this team got blown out so many times this season is because of no quality pitching. I just don't want history repeats itself in the future. I would like them to draft as many good pitching arms as possible.

How high is Lewis' ceiling if his arm is weak? Buxton still cannot hit major league pitching. Lewis might be worse than Buxton. I really don't feel good about this pick. This team needs pitching, pitching and more pitching. It seems like this team got blown out in almost half of the losses this season.

I think McKay wanted to cry because he lost his gamble.

Quote: ”Royce Lewis is immensely athletic, a trait the Twins have had tremendous success with developing. That reminds me of BUXTON. Buxton at least has a better arm.

Royce Lewis sounds like Buxton with a weak arm.

It's going to be McKay.

Duffey leads the group with an IRS% of 45.5%. That might be the only reason why he should be starting. Yeah right clean up his own mess.

Breslow's IRS% is better than Belisle and Duffey, worse than Kintzler and Rogers. 30.8% Here is the stats: http://www.foxsports.com/mlb/minnesota-twins-team-stats?season=2017&category=PITCHING+RELIEF&group=1&sort=17&time=0&pos=0&qual=0&splitType=128

Correction: Breslow's ERA is 2.75. Sure he may not have good stuff, at least he gets job done most of the time.

Well I only look at the results: (ERA) Breslow 2.73 Kintzler 2.78 Rogers 3.12 Duffey 3.51 Bosher 3.60

Other than Rogers the whole bullpen struggled. Belisle should be released and Pressly should be demoted. That should have been done much earlier. I also don't understand why everyone is picking on Breslow. To be fair, he still holds a low ERA and gets some job done most of the time.

Belisle should be released as well.

Breslow is not as bad as Pressly and Belisle. Demotion should start with Whoever holds ERA over 8.

Where is Sano? Still sitting on the bench???
