Twins sign Gibson!

The Twins have signed first round draft pick Kyle Gibson. This is a very good sign as he was widely viewed as a top ten talent and dropped due to a stress fracture to his arm (not his elbow or shoulder). If the Twins would have failed to sign Gibson, the Twins front office would have been ripped apart by the media because of their resistance to sign a Type A free agent because they refused to give up their first round draft pick. Hopefully he turns out to be similar to the two players he has been compared to - John Lackey and Justin Verlander.
