Just remember guys how young Sano is...he was the youngest player....in FT. MYERS..So once again hes one of the youngest prospect in a class that has a lot more top pitching prospects so it will take some time...he will finish out this yr at AA then probably start there again next yr..he will be fine and we will see him soon enough

Nice bulletin board material buddy, kinda jynxed us on that one

Although i agree, pride and the past will guarantee he makes over 3 mil....im guessing there are teams that will give him 7-8....id be ok with the twins giving him that...remember that this is the only year * while playing a full season, that his hr are awful so i wanna say this is a fluke)

Im part of the minority as well...Since hes not valuable enough to trade, i say sign him to an extension that is worth less a year than what hes making now (how is he gonna decline it, not like hes gonna get over $10 mil a yr from anyone else) besides, not like anyone else is knockin on the doo at 1st (apologes to collabello but hes at best anAAAA player) Morneau still gives you plus defense at 1st and still hits decent

Glad this moment has come....a little surprised he didnt go after the all star game

Dont you want him to get some big league experience this year before hes shut down rather then let him learn early next year when we have a better shot at contending (better shot, not neccesarily sqying we will) Experience can help a young pitcher, ala liriano in 05 when he got rocked in sept but it helped him dominate in 06

True, but worley put up his numbers in the national league where diamond did it in the american...plus worley is gettin pounded in AAA anyway not really pounding on the door to come back

Thanks for the link, yeah guess its 5 and 6th mostly with some on the first

So 13 starts mean more than 30? Doesnt make much sense there....besides what are we in a rush for? You think this year we are gonna contend? Unlike worley who wasnt showing anything, atleast diamond shows some hints of last yr, he just cant finish off his starts....They need to see if diamond can ride this out and regain last years stuff.

What I have noticed about Diamond is that most of his starts go well for 4-5 innings, but he runs into a lot of trouble in innings 6 and 7...id honeslty lime to know his splits for those innings....hes 26, he has some success in the past, id give him a pass right now so i wont be jumping off the wagon just yet

While I understand both sides of the arguement here, im siding with Gibson being called up. If he didnt have a pitching limit, then id be fine with waiting but keeping him in AAA is a waste of what he has left. Big league experience before next year is more important than you think. Remember Lirianos first call up at the end of 05 i think...he got crushed and learned some hars lessons....next year? He dominated 12-3 before getting injured and never being the same...but still! Not saying gibson is Liriano,but just showing how important experience can be before starting a new season..call him up, go to a six man then once he reaches his limit call up albers to replace him and by then correa will probablybe traded anyways for a prospect. Now you have Diamond, Gibson, Albers, walters, and deduno set for next years rotation ( until may and meyer are ready to take over)

So im guessing Red Wings Ryan Boldt hasnt got drafted yet because of his injury and the fact that after the first couple rounds, he has a zero signability?
