@EliBenPorat i just thought Jake's piece was good and wanted to promote it, and some poor guy caught me in a shitty mood. I'm def not gonna be here dude, brings the worst outta me.

Breaking my twitter sobriety to tell you this is worth your time.

A few weeks ago the Giants beat the Dodgers 29-2… in the Arizona Complex League.

I wrote about what the hell happened and why it’s a symptom of something much bigger going wrong in the low-level minor leagues.

“It’s a total s*** show.”

Terrific news! All of the prospect coverage we enjoy today pretty much grew from Allan founding @BaseballAmerica in his garage 45 years ago. I've never met anyone who loves every aspect of baseball as much as Allan, and I owe my career to him. Very happy for him!

The Twins are acquiring DSL catcher Miguel Caraballo from San Francisco. I'd link to his player page but this website fucking sucks.

[Eric Longenhagen @longenhagen]

Sources: The Twins will trade Rule 5 draft pick Daniel Susac to the Giants.

[Eric Longenhagen @longenhagen]

He's a pretty standard mid-90s fastball, plus slider reliever, except that he's 6-foot-8, 300 pounds.

[Eric Longenhagen @longenhagen]

(un-shun) Multiple sources are telling me RJ Petit will be the first pick in the Rule 5 Draft. (re-shun)

[Hunter Greene @HunterGreene17]

Still my favorite play! Thanks @longenhagen https://t.co/uBQBx7phQu

[Eric Longenhagen @longenhagen]

@TOutmanSzn Maddux Bruns. My source's text autocorrected Bruns to Burns and I assumed it was Chase when it was Maddux.

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

This is pretty incredible: MLB is offering a FREE subscription to https://t.co/CUPnjF6lOd for all college students through Feb. 28. Covers the rest of the 2022 regular season, Dominican Winter League and start of spring training. And it doesn't autorenew: https://t.co/cQEv4OOeea

@DSzymborski @MarkovWalker methodology explained here. updating the dudes who crossed into their 20s now, thanks for spotting that. https://t.co/nzPz3DX29B

[Eric Longenhagen @longenhagen]

@Timmer1020 Okay cool, thanks for the heads up tho

[Eric Longenhagen @longenhagen]

@Timmer1020 will you screenshot what it is you're seeing and send it to me please?

@RyanDivish literally eating chocolate while I read this.

Kevin's work is part of why I'm doing this at all, and it was my honor to work with him and show him where and how I've tried to carry this weird torch that he inadvertently passed to so many.

[Kevin Goldstein @Kevin_Goldstein]

Hi everyone. I'm saddened to be leaving @fangraphs and also very happy and excited to tell you I'm joining the Minnesota Twins as a Special Assistant, Player Personnel. Here's a much longer thank you to FanGraphs, and of course the readers and listeners. https://t.co/w377I27OZD

[Eric Longenhagen @longenhagen]

A gigantic thank you to the folks who run accounts like this.

[Raising Royals @KCRoyalsPD]

Today's Lineups for our Complex matchups against the Texas Rangers. All games are open to the public and start at 1:00 PM.

[Eric Longenhagen @longenhagen]

Ronny Henriquez is also headed to Minnesota as part of this deal, sources say.

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

Catcher Mitch Garver is headed to the Rangers in the deal for Isiah Kiner-Falefa, sources tell ESPN.

[Eric Longenhagen @longenhagen]

@CHSRoughRiders @EastPennConf18 @cchs_gbb @PPLCenter Woah, Charles Post!

[Eric Longenhagen @longenhagen]

@enosarris Arguably overlaps with Extension, too. Bigger Extension often means longer stride down the mound, longer stride often means the pitcher is low. Think how Extension interacts with angle is more important than perceived velo.
