What? You think a paper wouldn't run a story if the team denies it? My goodness. That's not how news organizations work at all... furthermore did the Twins deny the info or did they instead demand you censor a post because it was too sensitive? Face it, it was a chicken excrement decision by the site founders, who showed they value access above all else. But whatever its not my site so you guys can do as you like.
-
Its your site, but its notable that folks with "access" are publishing the same stuff while those begging for access are censoring it.
-
Interesting. This was confirmed in a post that Twins Daily deleted at behest of the Twins yet Heyman reports it, gets links and Tweets mentions..... Real reporter vs website....
-
Navarreto's size makes it less likely he sticks at catcher in the long term. He is a big dude
-
Why do you have Blankenhorn so much higher than Trey Cabbage? Both young Corner IF, both high Draft picks Is it the power Blankenhorn showed?
-
Minier & Diaz both had disappointing seasons. Any reason why you like Diaz so much more than Minier?
-
Don't be silly. We are only at #25. Yeah the top 20 prospects won't be a good as last year. But any list with Kepler, Buxton & Berrios is going to be good.
-
Landa was hitting 98 post surgery? Wow Is he done as a starter?
-
I have seen varying reports on Lachlan Wells. FB up to 92 with a good slider. Is that right? Have you heard about how/what he throws?

Posts like this make me scratch my head. He had 15 games at AA in '14....Its doubtful he gets protected and its double doubtful any team would take him in the rule 5 draft. Really? .... Dozier as a 24 year old at AA .318/.384/.502 351 PA Michael as a 24 year old at AA .267 .369 .434 264 PA Michael's prospect status is not a lost cause. He could turn it around and become a utility guy but lets face it, he won't make it to the team based on his glove so he better make the org notice him with this bat. And to date he hasn't done it. Not saying he won't but he hasn't yet. But to say he is ahead of Dozier? Thats just an odd take....

Obviously true. But good velocity can be an equalizer if you are off. If you don't have velocity you have to have amazingly great control to be an ace. Kevin Slowly had nice control and had a few good years, but when he wasn't on, or if he ran into a tight zone, he struggled. If he could kick it up to 95 he might be considered an ace.
-
Berrios is the youngest guy on this list!
-
No Adam Walker. We all know Walker has flaws and I guess they factor in age / experience over anything else? Albert Almora and Jesse Winker are younger and higher draft picks so they must like their potential over Walker's power..
-
This tells me its almost a lock to pencil him in the FM rotation next year. If memory serves they did the same with Sano when they thought he was showboating HR's.

Most of the guys on this list from other teams where promoted to AA during the year.
-
Do you speak Spanish? It would be nice to hear from Randy Rosario, Yorman Landa on their recoveries
-
I would like Gardy to coach the Nats. He could win a WS with that talented bunch and I would like Gardy to win one. But mostly I would like to see him start Francoeur over Harper a few times a week
-
I am a bit surprised by Blankenhorn getting on this list. He started hot at the GCL but struggled at the end of the year.
-
My Goodness. Have you looked at either's minor league stats or are you just trolling? They are pretty dissimilar except for being a sweet swinging LH hitter with a decent eye at a plate. If he has the career of Mauer Twins got amazing value for his signing bonus and the scout who brought Kepler into the org deserves to be in the HOF. Mauer was on a HOF track before being derailed.

They have lots of older pitchers on their staff with the highest ave age in the league and offensively its a group that struggled. But I think these guys have a chance: Gordon Rosario Jorge Lamda
