this thread just feels like a bad idea.

They've also made plenty of good moves. You tend to focus almost incessantly on the bad ones. This is the same front office that found great value with Flowers, brought us Inciarte, flipped Gattis for Folty and smartly held onto Freeman during the rebuild when his value was much lower...

Why??? Seriously, this is a business. The way you look at this is so short-sighted. The bottom line -- and this is ESPECIALLY TRUE -- with phenoms that are threatening to break into the bigs at like 21 years old, that extra year of control is a really big deal. It matters. It matters way more...

Organizational fail

He's been pretty good tonight though, I really don't hate that pitch selection, just drifted over the fat part of the plate. Not many pitchers are turning on that

Jeez Folty

Swanson needs to play, here or in AAA, this is absurd.

I'm just posting what BA wrote about him; sounds like he's filled out the frame and the fastball has gotten faster. Those are good things right?

no sure if this has been posted or not... http://www.baseballamerica.com/majors/twins-complete-deal-for-jaime-garcia-send-huascar-ynoa-to-braves/#LzyPR4eMOtbS1p56.97 "The younger brother of White Sox righthander Michael Ynoa, Huascar received an $800,000 bonus from the Twins in 2014. Not...

If we can get him for Charles Thomas and Dan Meyer..... I'm in! Mostly agree with nsacip though; I'd really rather let guys like Sims/Newk/Wisler get an audition the rest of the year. Now isn't the time to buy.

good. Let them gut some more of their farm system. I really don't want to part with prospects for a guy with injury history and a contract that really doesn't fit our window.

Stop. ffs - why does every thread become this? When I joined this board, this forum was awesome, now it's just constant bickering. I'm certainly not perfect here, and there's been a couple posts where I've probably not helped the process. But can't we just have a truce for a little while; half...

A 1-100 prospect ranking is incredibly subjective, again there isn't a perfect, or even really solid way to easily compare two elite farm systems.

There's not a perfect way to calculate some of this stuff, you act like you have a fool-proof system.

GoHard has a head start on him :)

Not a very good day for Bryce Wilson

The guy isn't wrong; the depth we have is absurd. Add in all the J2 signings from last year and depth is so good.

yea no issues there, at worst he's a good bench bat.

trade Jaime and open up a rotational spot for Sims/Medlan/Blair/Wisler.

I tend to think the people that wanted Gray didn't necessarily want him for a stretch run this year.
