Couldn’t take the heat and we came undone

But when my eyes close

You’re still somewhere in the faint glow 🎶

Sending my daughter good vibes for her first big gymnastics meet of the season.

You’ve put in an unbelievable amount of work, have fun!

At this precise moment, I think he’s a clear number one. There’s some really good prep and college prospects at the top of this class though. Assuming the Twins keep a T3 pick, their pool should be in the 16-17 million range, which is prize 1B to having that AND #1 overall.

Roch Cholowsky as a 20-year old for UCLA
.353/.480/.710 (1.190)
165 wRC+
23 HR (43 XBH)
13.9 BB%
9.3 K%
Patient approach (44% swing rate)
81% contact rate (90% in zone)
112 mph MaxEV (106.5 mph EV90)
Plus arm, lock to stay at SS

It's really, really impressive.

If you had Dasan Hill (drafted in 2024) earning his first pro win before Connor Prielipp (drafted in 2022), who earned his tonight, I salute you.

Great day for Prielipp, statistical intricacies aside.

84 pitches! #MNTwins
