Aaron Gleeman pretty much hates the Ramon Ortiz signing. Aaron tends to be a numbers guy, and he pulls out some good ones, but he also uses a bit of revisionist history when it comes to Johan Santana and Jason Bartlett. The Twins do move slow on their prospects; maybe that’s why the have success when they do get their chance. Also, it wasn’t lack of chances that was holding Michael Cuddyer back before last year, Sr. Gleeman. It was lack of production. Still, he hits on some good points, particularly in the section on the prospect trimmed from the 40-man roster to clear the way for Ortiz. It’s worth a read, even if we don’t believe the move was “Dios Mio” worthy, as Gleeman does.
