Top 50 Twins Prospects: #34 Brian Dinkleman

34. Brian Dinkleman


Second Baseman/ Left Fielder

Bats: Right

Age: 26

ETA: 2010

Potential: Decent middle infield bench bat

2010 outlook: Rochester 2B/LF


Dinkleman had a great year at class AA New Britain. He hit .296/.383/.440. He had 8 homers, 2 triples, and 38 doubles. 48 extra base hits is not too shabby. I like Dinkelman a lot, but the main problem is his age. If he was 23, I’d have him in the top 15. He still could be a productive big league second baseman, but the Twins have a lot of middle infield options like DInkleman, and they might go sign a big 2B free agent this year anyways.
