Hi Wegner. Do you want to share?

The post title never really makes it clear which Twins series they were writing about.

He was very patient in college. Lack of playing time from injuries took it away. He'll get it back with more playing time

Just a question. Can plate discipline be taught? I wonder if good teams draft it, or can it be learned?

30+ years ago I read my first "baseball prospectus" by Bill James. It was then I knew we were fucked.

It's kinda weird, but in Vegas this would probably be an even money bet.

I put my Sox flag out yesterday, so it's in the bag now!!!

Kepp was the epitome of "buy high,sell low".

probably burger was the best pick. lower spot in draft than vaughn. no one can predict injury.

sounds about right. we suck.

We should put it up to a vote!!

Jake "the Royal with cheese" Burger. Too bad Chris Berman is old now.

Does Vaughn look like he's shrinking to anyone else? He finally gets his patience back and now he can't hit it far. I'm not kidding about the shrinking though. Get back on the creotene.

In this organization, even the minor leaguers miss more games due to injury than they play in.

I've spent the last 40 years as a cog in the wheel. For the most part, I'm ok with it. My kids turned out pretty well. The wife and I have more than most . I'm lucky enough to see my grand kids all the time. But it really hurts to see fools ruining the destiny of my first love. Kenny and Rick are in over their heads and always have been. Knowing JR couldn't care less makes it worse. We've all been saying the same thing in different ways for 15 years. What's the point? The worst part is billionaires live a long time.

I think I may have told you before, but your "this day" posts are great. Keep it up!

that's a relief after his last start.

I hear your argument. The one reason I don't agree totally, is the Sox are morons. They are chickens when it comes to giving young players a chance. They have been this way for my whole life. The only guys they will give a shot to and stick with them are all 1st round draft picks. It really does seen Sosa is ready now. Too bad he had 13 poor at bats last year. That's a federal offense in this organization.

Sosa has a 1.488 OPS at AAA. Including 3 HR and 6 walks. Popeye is only hitting .400 at AA.

It's always about Sheets being better against righties. But Burger has only had about 30 ABs against righties in the majors. And Sheets isn't real good against lefties. He's just ok. Given the opportunity, Burger would end up better from either side of the plate.

He's not gonna be the old AC that's for sure. But even a lesser AC is better than what we've got now.

We all know how Mr. 2000 is doing. Lenyn Sosa has a 1.420 OPS at Charlotte. Too bad he can't pitch.

agreed. anyone can post a 5.74 in colorado. he'll be in the bigs in 2 weeks.

Not me! Check back in June.

To the anti-Burger men out there, give him 100 AB's against righties. The man can hit. Even Sheets' good games aren't much more than sharp grounders thru the infield.
