Agreed. I just want a #1 starter.

+1. Haven't had one since Johan

Also, I realllllllly hope the name "JoBer" doesn't become a thing

[FLMARLIN]

For Minnesota fans' sake, I sure hope not. I can't help but think Jose is just going to be another electric arm whose career ends due to arm issues.

Fernandez was a much higher rated prospect if I remember correctly. I dont think he'll be Fernandez type good, giving him that much hype and hope isnt a good thing. Hes gonna be a good one but Fernandez, before the injury was on the Kershaw trajectory

Hughes was last year, no?

[PejaD]

I do not believe Berrios has the velocity of Fernandez. Given his athletic albeit small size for a pitcher, I see Berrios' upside more like a young Tim Hudson

Definitely a future first ballot JoFamer

Berrios doesn't throw as hard as JoFer. He has looked good at every level and I don't think he'll be intimidated by playing in the big leagues. That being said if he can be 75% of JoFer he'll be the Twins #1 if they ever decide to bring him up.

Why must everyone have one of these stupid nicknames???

[scfdff]

Jofer is an arrogant jerk, Berrios is the nicest guy you will ever meet. Having seen both pitch numerous times, Berrios isn't nearly as electric as Fernandez, but he knows how to pitch

[yanksfan0134]

It sucks to see Jose Berrios' cards so low. With the possibility of a September call up, you would think theyd rise a little bit more than normal but you can still get a chrome for around 10-12 bucks.

"JoBer" just sounds like some overly congested kid trying to say "JoFer"
