Prospects To Players: Where Do These Guys Go For Twins?
Although he made his debut and played in five games with the Twins as a 20-year-old last season, Polanco is still a prospect. He had a very good year with Fort Myers down in Single-A and edned his 2014 season with Double-A New Britain.
Expect Polanco to get plenty of reps with the Twins during Spring Training, and take note as to where he plays. In his call up last year, the Twins needed middle infield help and Polanco played shortstop for them. During winter ball, he played almost solely at second base, but he would appear to be blocked by Brian Dozier there. Polanco is probably going to start in Double-A Chattanooga this season, and I’d bet against him being called upon in 2015 by the Twins.
