00:00I was going to hit on the twins out of the gate because, I mean, I think a lot, especially
00:05with the absence of Pablo, I think there's four names I want to touch on.
00:09One is more of a wild card, but the three are going to be in the big leagues, right?
00:14The first one is Zebby Matthews, who carved up some college kids using metal bats for fun.
00:19His stuff just he's a guy who's actually able to get some pretty good zone with, you know, he struggles
00:24with barrels at times, but he carries a nice strikeout to walk ratio.
00:27It's kind of Joe Ryan-ish in that way from a profile perspective, not necessarily the crazy ride fastball, but
00:33it's that type of profile.
00:35Also, you have Taj Bradley took out five, you know, Acuna did get him for, you know, a ball that
00:41he pimped that ended up being a single, but it was a single.
00:44Yeah.
00:44Like it was, it was one of those classic, like I thought it was 500 feet beyond the wall.
00:49So it's a single now, but I will say the TV, like the telecast did that.
00:54But no, it did, did a Bradley zero graces because that ball looked like it left his bat at a
00:59million miles an hour.
01:01Yeah.
01:01And I mean, that is the thing with Taj Bradley, right?
01:03It's two to three beautiful innings.
01:06And then he gets a ball good sense for 450 feet.
01:09I mean, that's kind of a twins thing for being honest, the pitchers, they tend to develop or all like
01:13that.
01:14But also Mick Abel today, man, he went toe, toe to toe with Scoogle, shook off five over two or
01:20three innings, had 12 whiffs, seven, seven whiffs on eight swings against his fourth seamer.
01:26I'm pretty sure debuted, debuted a new sweeper shape looks very good.
01:30And Kendry Rojas, man, you know, kind of stuffed Acuna and Austin Riley in a locker.
01:35And you come on, like, and also, so I know it's guys naming dudes, but we're going through it.
01:40Emmanuel Rodriguez, if he stays healthy, I don't understand why you'd keep that dude in St. Paul.
01:46There's no point even in St. Paul now.
01:49Like, he should not play another game there.
01:52Well, here's the thing, too.
01:53Here's the thing, too, Arm.
01:54And maybe, maybe, maybe the answer to this is not the one I think it is.
01:58But I want to ask you, if you could guarantee health on E-Rod, where are you ranking him in
02:02your top 100?
02:03I think we, I may have mentioned it on the show.
02:05I think if you can guarantee health.
02:08Guarantee health.
02:09Exactly.
02:10Exactly.
02:11So, exactly.
02:12You said what?
02:13Top 10?
02:14Top 15?
02:15Top 15 minimum.
02:16I think there's a, there's a case for top 10 if you could guarantee health.
02:20Because what would a season of 130 games looked like from him last year?
02:24Could you imagine?
02:25It would have been incredible.
02:27Yeah.
02:28And Walker Jenkins, too.
02:29I mean, you had Walker Jenkins firmly inside the top 50.
02:32So, you had two top 50 prospects in that outfield.
