Minnesota Twins Prospect #13 (Poll)

…who had numbers similar to Valencia (who we ranked #1) during the first 5-6 weeks of the season before his foot injury. Although he missed more than half of the season, his numbers were also similar or better than Ramos, who we ranked #5. Considering this was Tosoni’s second year of professional ball…he is deserving of a ranking in this area of our prospect list. Personally, I believe he has a ceiling as high or higher than those available to vote for at this point…with excellent results on the field in Hi-A ball at Ft. Myers.

just wanted to point out that slama hasn’t given up a hr in 102 professional innings yet and has averaged 14ks per 9 innings consistantly so far.

McCardell has better numbers than Manship had, when compared at the same level which surprised me a little.

Martin has been extremely consistant the last 3 seasons also ending each with a high obp and an ops around .800-.830 and he has good defense.

not sure how to vote for robinson and tosini. I think they have great potential just not the momentum due to injuries. So I will probably vote them lower because this is for the here and now, but I know they are good prospects.

By all reports he has electric stuff, and I think he’ll rise very, very quickly through the organization.

I actually gave a great deal of thought to Romero here as well. I think he’s my next pick after Gutierrez.

Martin I like a lot, but his ceiling on this team is a 4th OF, so I just can’t see a vote for him.

I just can’t believe Delaney or Slama are going to offer much at the big league level. Maybe servicable relievers, maybe even one great year in there somewhere, but certainly not future lockdown closer material. Some stated a desire to see Delaney called up this year, and the bullpen certainly needed help, but obviously the powers that be didn’t think he was ready. Considering that Mijares, younger than both, did get the call, I’d have to take that as further evidence against either one.

I went with Manship here and Guiterrez next; Guiterrez may have a little more upside (debatable) but Manship is a click closer.

I’m going to let this one play out for a little bit… sometime between noon and one Central Time, I’ll check and if one of the two has a lead of 2 or more, I think that’ll be the winner and we’ll move on… If there is a 1 vote difference (or a tie), I’ll do a prospect run-off. Is everyone comfortable with that? Winner of the Run-Off 13. I personally think that the loser should have to go back into the pool (unless the vote is within 3-5 or something)since a third candidate is within striking distance and we don’t know how the votes that went to the winner would have been broken up.
