    Ryan has been back 29 months and many of feel we can contend in 2015 and for many years thereafter. That's soon enough for me.

    Good job!
  3. howieramone1406390264
    Nice job!

    This has been SOP for all teams. Is there a reason why you're unhappy with the FO of our favorite team?

    Every time I hear the words shoulder surgery, I cross the guy off the list and go to the next guy. In this case Gibson.

    I like Castro also. I would start with Berrios and Thorpe. King Theo is in a rebuild just like us, but their ETA is 2016. His future position talent rivals ours, but we have more starting pitching prospects.

    Jeremy, I like what you've done. I think next year at this time your list my be closer than most. I really like Gonsalves, but his mechanics are as raw as I can recall seeing. I can't believe he didn't take at least the JUCO route. I played against a lefty about the same size, taken in the 3rd-4th round and he was so much smoother.

    Jay, thanks for your response. I would have thought differently.

    Good job! The only thing I would add is, how the Tanaka deal plays out complicates this free agency period. No way the top tier starting pitchers will sign until that is resolved.

    Nick, you hit it on the head!
  11. howieramone1406390264
    Completely agree!

    5 are starting pitching prospects and 5 are International signing. We may have been late to the dance a decade ago Internationally, but have more than made up for it. This is a competitive advantage for us going forward. Also, the more recent change in looking for more power arms, appears to be meeting with some success.

    I'm not sure. I read somewhere, where the Twins FO doesn't understand the concept of selling high. I think it's much more likely that Meyer and May just fell into their lap.

    King Theo is a Ryan clone. He'll want Berrios and Thorpe.

    The injury occurred in 2009. He has since pitched 3 strong college seasons and was at one time projected to be a top 20 pick. Maybe his strikeout #'s caused him to drop to about where BA had him slotted. A 2nd round pick is a not a 1st round pick.
