Minnesota Twins Top 20 Prospects: #17 Jermaine Palacios

Honorable Mentions
#20: Travis Blankenhorn#19: Wander Javier #18 Stuart Turner

Jermaine Palacios was nearly unheard of before 2015 and now he’s among Minnesota’s most exciting talents. He’s jumped at least 20 spots on the Twins’ prospect list between this time last year and now. He is one of the Twins’ best hitting prospects—he has been tearing the cover off of baseballs in Rookie Ball. Can he continue to do so in A ball this upcoming season? While his bat impresses, his defence leaves something to be desired.
