Stupid play Odor is an exciting young player, Bautista is an exciting player. Getting suckerpunched could lead to a concussion and/or a broken hand. Plug a guy in the ribs next time up - stay away from the head - and move on with life. This aint hockey.

Today the Bo Sox promoted Andrew Benintendi a 21 year old prospect to AA from A+ because he was doing really well. Meanwhile for the Twins, 22 year olds like Wade are beating up kids in low A....sigh.

I think it would be more useful to compare the 2016 Twins to the Twins teams of 94 - 98 era. In the late 90's they had vets like Coomer, Pat Mears, Winfield, Moliter, Tweksbury while mixing in players like Cordova, Lawton, Becker, Hawkins. It wasn't a "solid mix" it was a freaking disaster. - Just like 2016 is turning out to be. The key difference is in 2016 a lot of the vets are signed long term. It wasn't until 1999 when the Twins went full on youth (except for Terry Steinbach) Hopefully, they start to move those vets and replace them with youth so by Late July the team resembles the 1999 team so we can accelerate the rebuild.

Oh god Let the ridiculous trade proposals begin. I read that the Angels might need bullpen help....what about a guy like Abad for Trout?
-
Unless of course the GM has built a team that forces the manger to play a lot of guys out of position making this team one of the worst Defensive teams I have ever seen and built a horrible bullpen While the manager puts a guy with a .267 OBP at leadoff and has a team that is making multiple baserunning mistakes and hasn't proven able to right this ship. But yeah...its the players fault. Lets give Molly and Ryan a pass.

Our owner is a fool. Fantastic!

I think Stewart should be the first call up from FM but it would be great if they went together
-
Its just so damn disappointing. Meyer showed why everyone should be excited for the young man the first two innings. Then he showed why we should be worried about him in the third. I sure do wish he had the chance to finish the inning out. Bringing in Milone was just bush league by Moliter and Ryan played his part by sending him down right after the game BUT Ryans not going anywhere Moliter is not going anywhere I still enjoy following the Twins....

Knowing the Twins they will start him at E-Town because...the Twins. But in reality its probably innings. They won't want him to start pitching until June and just let him pitch the whole season.
-
There is no pitching prospect in AA or AAA who should be blocking these guys development. All of the starting pitchers at AA look to be filler at t his point and the guys in AAA are bullpen candidates. When the scouts say the FM pitchers are ready, they should move up.

Fernando Romero & Lewis Thorpe! Im really looking forward for those careers to get restarted
-
Hildenberger is an interesting add. He is a guy I didn't think about too much but his numbers make him look like a nice bullpen candidate but I think I like a guy like Luis Arraez over him.

Twins scouting dept is going to have to work overtime for this one.

Trade them all and lets go young! 2017 Rotation: May, Duffey, Meyer, Berrios & Milone

Maybe chance will smile at you and you will get your money back. But you are not "investing" in a player. You have no ownership, the player is not telling you how he/she will use that money to build for the future. This an "investment" is like investing in your ability to pick the trifecta. Good Luck!
