Normally I would say the lifestyle Herrman and his wife want to pursue is their own business, but when it affects your ability to stay in the line up ....

Rosario in FTM lineup, CF,batting 3rd tonight.

1st at bat, Eddie Rosario flies out to left fielder Chris Swauger




djskillz -> RE: Players and prospects III (5/29/2014 6:25:10 PM)

Awesome that probably our best healthy position player prospect is back. Not awesome that he's playing CF.

He will not supplant Buxton in CF longterm, so I hate this move and the organization panicking to make up for that fact in CF. Even though we have Dozier, continue to play Rosario at 2b if he can handle it. Add value.

Insane. We're having troubles in the bigs so guys as far down as A+ (or really, AA shortly) are playing center.

What an organization.

ALL the eggs were put in the Buxton basket.

Zero backup plan.

Pathetic.

BAs latest mock has Gordon.
-------------------



5. TWINS: Other teams believe the Twins are hot on Hartford lefthander Sean Newcomb, and they have done their due diligence there. He combines the power arm the organization needs with the strike-throwing arm action the Twins covet. More likely, though, they will not pass on Gordon, a true shortstop.

Projected Pick: SS Nick Gordon



Sean Newcomb
Newcomb wasn’t a priority follow in high school and walked 38 in 45 innings as a Hartford freshman. He took off in 2013, however, ranking second in the nation in strikeouts per nine (11.5) and landing a spot in the Cape Cod League. A bout of mononucleosis interrupted his Cape stint. Newcomb has flashed mid-90s velocity but more often pitches at 91-93 mph with his fastball from a sound delivery, and the ball gets on top of hitters because he does it so easily. He has plenty of projection left with a strong 6-foot-5, 240-pound workhorse body and a fresh Northeastern arm. He maintains his delivery and throws a lot of strikes with the fastball, though he tends to get away with elevated pitches against modest competition. His breaking ball wavers between a curve and slider, and scouts believe his arm slot lends itself more to a curveball. His changeup flashes promise, though he uses it sparingly. Scouts can dream on Newcomb more than the average college pitcher but also have less certainty because of his short track record.

When a guy's on a roll like that, it's stupid to keep him in the minors. With pitchers (especially Twins pitchers), any pitch could be his last healthy one. Let's use his good stuff up here while he's going good. He'll end up getting hurt and only reach the majors a few years down the road as a washup "recovering" from an injury.

Only 1 starter they can send down to make room for him and that is Gibson. The other take waivers and twins would lose because someone would claim and twins could be still paying the contract. They need to work out a trade but to many question marks for anyone to want their contracts

DFA Correia. If someone takes him; great, you just saved some money on a guy who sucks and is gone after this year anyway.

You could also DFA Pelfrey (can't recall if you can DFA someone on the DL or not, but ignoring that); ain't no way anyone is going to take him with that deal.

Be proactive once.
Neither is an answer to any question we need to ask.
Cut the losses and move on.

Cannot DFA Pelfrey. Just 60 day DL him at this point.
