If the Twins have anything to say about it.
Derek (the first one)

Do you have a favorite story line of the 2019 MLB season so far?
Meg Rowley
2:46
I think it is just very cool that the other day, the Twins were playing the Rays, and I thought, oh heck yes, let's watch this here Twins/Rays game.
Elton
2:47
I think you've convinced me to bump up my competitive timeline form 2027 to 2026, thanks.
Meg Rowley
2:47
I still have so. many. questions.
David
2:48
I really thought Jay Bruce + most of the cash would have been a team's 25-30, apparently even that was too much.
Meg Rowley
2:49
He's cooled, it's a lot of money, and the M's didn't have much leverage.
Ryan
2:50
Do you have any favorite broadcasters or radio commentators?
Meg Rowley
2:51
The M's booth is good. The White Sox booth with Benetti is good. The Dodgers booth is good. I like the AZ and SD booths, even though they skew a little more old school.
Not an exhaustive list, but
Oh Brewers radio.
Mariners
2:51
Shed Long and Jp Crawford, good middle infield combination for the next 5 years for the mariners?
Meg Rowley
2:51
Don't think Shed can hang there defensively but I like him a lot anyway.
Will
2:53
Suppose a family member or close friend is a high school senior projected to be picked during the first two rounds of the draft and has numerous scholarship offers. Would you advise them to go pro or attend college? What factors would you suggest be considered in making the decision?
Meg Rowley
2:55
Would depend on the size of the bonus, the quality of the collegiate program, and increasingly, how much development the swing needs.
Ok, pals, I'm sorry to bounce a little early today, but I need to do just that.
2:56
Draft Week will conclude with a pod, and some odds and ends the guys noticed from this year.
Thanks for all the questions, and sorry for what I didn't get to.
2:57
Have a great rest of your week, and thanks for all your close reading of our draft stuff. We're really proud of it.
