Full Minors Roster for '09

Re: Full Minors Roster for '09

To question my baseball knowledge after a handful of posts would be awfully presumptuous. I have a pretty good grasp on most teams' farm systems.

When he hits for power...come tell me off.

Nothing presumptuous about it, all i had to do was read what you typed. With such a bold statement about a 18/19 year old kid that is so outrageous and it just shows that you havent followed his progression in the minors.

You must use the phrase "pretty good grasp" pretty loosely. But obviously you know more than BP,BA, MLB.com, ESPN, Sickels, Law, Ballew, Goldstein...i envy your knowledge...

Boss - your making rosters, not curing cancer... chill, his comment wont be the last one that someone makes.

rgp - no need for that in here....uncalled for.

Were all adults, and some are on the verge of becoming adults, so lets act like it.

Hey Knight, if you need some info on the Twins minor league system, nerd Twins blogger Aaron Gleeman recently put together a list of the Top 40 players in their farm system:

Second story down. Might not need it, but in case you did, it's a pretty decent read.

He says he wants to smack me in my face and my comment was uncalled for? Right. As for adults, yes...im 27 and not a child. Maybe what I wrote was childish, I'm not disputing that. That being said I would not put up with someone talking to me like that in person, so I'm not going to just let it slide on a message board. Especially when I've been posting on OS for years and never had a single issue with anyone. I was trying to be helpful and got slammed for no reason. Plenty of people are copying and pasting excerpts from Baseball America; when I do something similar I get called out? Whatever. Posting obvious talents such as Elvis Andrus and Neftali Feliz isn't groundbreaking. I figured Knight probably knew about Fien but I wasn't sure and was trying to help a bit. The whole thing is forgotten on my end and I wish Knight the best in making the greatest roster out there.

Listen, I don't have any issue with you. All I can ask is for people to stop asking or telling us about people. Trust us, at this point, we've got it down. I appreciate all of your guys help, but sometimes the way you guys post on here about putting guys in and whatnot is not respectful to Knight and the other people making the rosters. (myself included) WE are trying to make a great roster set, PERIOD!!. And, when it comes to Detroit, I lived in Michigan for 20 years as you can see and I can promise you the tigers will be represented well. All I am saying is that if you look in this thread you will see what we want from posters and how we want it. I've got no issues with anybody I just wish people would realize what goes into making this and understand that even 1 extra name throws off a whole roster research set if you knew how it was being done. So I have no issues with you, and in fact if you read my post, I didn't say I wanted to smack YOU, I said I wanted to smack PEOPLE. SO, please just understand, I've got no issue with you. There are 5 people though, the same 5 year after year that ask the same questions. and NO you aren't one of those 5.

wasnt trying to insult either of you, you were both acting childish and i agree about people posting the obvious prospects. Its really annoying.

No insult whatsoever. I've got no issues with anybody on this board. I am just trying to get these sheets done and get them to knight so he can have them ready to go for the input.

And, yes I do agree that it is very annoying. What sucks is that I've gotten 34 PM's from AWESOME posters giving me fantastic info and for that, thanks guys. It sucks that a small group of people ruin this effort every year by being selfish and rude.

i can promise you guys, be patient and you will like this set and will really appreciate the effort Knight and Razr are putting into this.

Thanks guys for all of your input and lists.

Also, one more thing, please try not to copy and paste stuff in this thread. It takes up way to much space. If you have something, PM it to us and we will look at it and see if we can use it.

Thanks,
Boss

The ones in the vault are the ones that have the lineup issue fixed. He will post the top 50 prospects probably this weekend. But, no guarantee.
