BP Chats

DateQuestionAnswer
2012-10-25 13:00:00 (link to chat)What in the heck is the deal with Jeff Manship? Forever AAAA?
(aschauer from Los Angeles)		Good morning everybody, or rather good morning some of you, and good afternoon to many others of you. We're starting with a Jeff Manship question because nothing says "BP Chat!" like a Jeff Manship question. Wherever I go in my life, people who find out I write about baseball ask me baseball questions. At Starbucks, at church, at family gatherings, etc, constantly asked about baseball. But never, in any of those contexts, does anybody ever ask me about Jeff Manship. Only at BP does anybody ask about Jeff Manship. That's why I love BP, and that's why I love you, ashauer.

To answer your question -- well, this won't answer your question, but IN RESPONSE to your question, I just did an Unfiltered Post, which is here, and which is why I was 25 seconds late:

http://bit.ly/Tiq1rw

When a question about Jeff Manship comes up in a chat, there's always a moment of panic that there must be some Jeff Manship news that I missed. I checked and didn't see any, so I'll assume you really just want to know about Manship's future prospects. Well, they're not great. The best thing you can hope for from a failed Twins prospect is that, when he turns 27 or so, they'll move him into the bullpen and he'll find a bunch of velocity. Manship's forays into the bullpen haven't done that, and that's really the last hope. I know it's nice to see that low ERA in Triple-A again, but he's 27, and that low ERA isn't really that low; the Twins aren't in the PCL, after all. Manship's ERA was the 10th best on the team, and the third or fourth best in his rotation, and the peripherals aren't there to support it. No upside there. (Sam Miller)
