19. Jorge Polanco
Shortstop
Throws: Right
Age: 16
ETA: 2016
Potential: Who knows?!
2010 outlook: GCL Twins infield
Jorge Polanco is one of the prospects that I am most interested in. Polanco was signed by the Twins this July in the Dominican Republic, and was given a $750k signing bonus. It is hard to find much information on Polanco, but he was frequently ranked in the top 20-25 Latin American prospects. He hasn’t received as much attention as other big names who joined the Twins system this year like Sano, Gibson, and Kepler. Many will feel that he is ranked too highly at #19, and some might not even have him in their own top 50. But the Twins don’t just hand out $750k to young Latin prospects.
