Disagree. Twins have not drafted impact arms or impact bats. The new stadium gives them the revenue to go out and get guys on the FA market to supplement the role players they drafted.

Two questions: 1 Will Buxton play? Is he recovered? 2 Why doesn't Rogers get strike outs? A lefty who throws hard should be getting more than he is

Injuries have pushed back the rebuild until 2016. The team should be cautious with both players now. It stinks.

Why isn't Gene Glynn getting more consideration? Here is a guy who learned under Madden in the Rays organization. Here is a guy who has won at the AAA level with changing rosters and dubious talent. He is getting no steam

1 - 6 could be the top prospect in any other organizations

Harrison Ive been up and down on him but now Im up. I too think he can develop power. He is a guy I think will break out one of these years

Hicks will be 25 at the start of the season next year and has yet to play AA ball. His OPS was .751 in High A baseball. I am mildly surprised his is on this list at all. Bret Lee will be 24 next year and might be starting AA next year (not a given). His strike out numbers were way down and his walks were up. But he was injured so he deserves some slack. I think he is about right.

Jorge - is probably the most head scratching performance this year. In a year when lots of prospects went down with injuries, he seemed to stay healthy but just couldn't get Single A prospects out. I think he was a top 20 at the start of the year. Jorge & Eades have to be two of the guys whose rankings fell the most. - Unless Baxendale is not even ranked - To be honest I am surprised Eades is on this list at all. If wasn't a second round pick he would be just another guy,

2015 Hughes Nolosco Gibson May Meyer Sorry Pelfrey, no room

The injuries to Buxton & Sano + Rosario's disappearance has pushed the rebuild back to 2016. 2015 should be more of the same unless the unexpected happens.

The only player in the entire organization who has more strikeouts than Alex Meyer is Phil Hughes I know Seth likes the "unheralded" type of guys. But...Meyer was nasty all year. I would've put him in the top six

I think thats not right. Baker had very good SO numbers before injury Garza has nice SO numbers Slowey had respectable SO numbers before injury. I would say all 3 of those pitchers "made the grade." Injuries and bad scouting derailed the team.

Kepler is on the 40 man so I think the team will continue to be aggressive with him. Next year is a big year for him. I would like him to start at AA just to put some pressure on the kid

Rochester is 1.5 games out of the Wild Card hunt. Hopefully they will make it in and this would delay most of the call ups

Why would those teams want those guys? Maybe May is enough but I doubt it. I think you would have to give up a Buxton, Meyer, Berrios, Sano for those guys.

As I say to everyone wanting a hypothetical trade: To Who? For What? Who would the Giants give up for him?

Kepler stunk it up the first few months and was injured. But he had a better a July now he is is having a great August 349/.404/.512 He is on the 40 man roster, so I wonder if they consider sending him to the AFL again this fall. Are you allowed to repeat?

Took over a terrible team in 2011. Given a very bad roster in 2012 and got the team to over .500. Started horrible in 2013 but kept the team together and got a playoff spot. In my opinion he is the only one qualified for the job after Gardy leaves.

Trevor Who? Let's bring back Andrew Albers! He at least knows where the bathrooms are at Target Field.

A caption on that photo would be nice

What kind of condition is this?

Reports I have read said he can't hit balls with movement and is a guess/mistake hitter. When he connects it goes a long way, but as he faces pitchers who can keep him off balance he will fail. I have never seen him play, but from what I have read/heard, he will struggle in AA because the pitchers are better. If he goes up without changing his approach, he could set records for # of Strike outs

Interesting Nola starts in High A

Release/Trade Pino & Johnson - I doubt either are with the team next year Trade Correia - he won't be with the team next year so whats the point? Hughes Gibson Meyer May Milone - see what we have Leave Nolasco on the DL for rest of year When Meyer hits his inning limit, use Darnell

Why do the National Guys report on these deals before the local reporters? I suppose it comes from his agent, but you would think the FO would send the local guys a bone now and then. Seth breaks more stories than our local beat reporters
