Twins did draft James Ramsey in the past, couldn't sign him. Went back to college and Cards drafted him the next year late in the first round in 2012.

Hitting .311 with a .988 OPS in AA. Age 24 so he is not a couple years away from the majors but just around the corner.

Embarrassment of riches in St. Louis.


Always loved that kid. He has that crazy OBP stat in college. Greek God of Walks Youklis-esque. Something like he didn't get on base once in a season or something.

Pat Neshek with 0.86 ERA and 23 K in 21 IP for St. Louis.


Hard not to like Neshek.


Really great to see him continue to do well after the tragedy with his kid.

Put Nathan up against a good team and he falls to pieces

Korecky, who offers versatility in the bullpen and the ability to pitch extended innings if needed, has been in the Blue Jays organization since 2011 after stints with the Minnesota Twins and Arizona Diamondbacks. The 34-year-old appeared in 22 games for the Buffalo Bisons this season, picking up a 3-1 record in 31 innings pitched. In that span he has registered 32 strikeouts, allowed only 16 hits, and carries a 0.77 WHIP and 0.29 ERA.

Don't forget, he gets to face that loaded Rochester lineup.

Among other teams with no real AAA prospects.

He's also peaking in his mid-30's, ala Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire and Roger Clemens.

Butera caught a no-hitter by Liriano when the two played for the Minnesota Twins in 2011 and just caught Beckett's no-hitter Sunday against the Philadelphia Phillies.

Butera told the Los Angeles Times he was a nervous wreck with Beckett, but recalls Liriano being silent.

"I was an emotional wreck after the fourth inning. You think about it, but you try not to think about it," he told the Times. "Liriano, he was dead silent.

"Obviously there was a little bit of a language barrier there."
