I was at the Saints game last night. First AAA in over 20 years since I lived in Toledo and went to Mud Hens games. Good time.

What struck me was the age of the lineup. The youngest guy in the lineup? Luis Arraez…by almost 3 years. Average age of the starting lineup was 28.6. Minus Arraez it was 29.1. I kept looking up the players and it was all 8-12 year journeymen minor league vets a few of whom who had cups of coffee in the majors with other teams.

I admit I haven’t followed Twins minors closely but I was at least expecting to see a few up and coming young prospects. Nope. Not a one.

Rooker is still allegedly a prospect. He's 26, which is a mere child among Twins prospects.

And here I thought you had given up on the Twins.

Not sure if you are being realistic or sarcastic on this one.... Bring him right up when ready to the Big leagues; AAA not needed.

Realistic. They are going to be ultra careful with Balazovic after having back issues to start the year.
