Top 50 Twins Prospects: #30 David Winfree

30. David Winfree

Corner Outfielder

Bats: Right

Age: 24

ETA: 2010

Potential: #4 outfielder. Good bench bat.

2010 outlook: Rochester outfield


The Twins selected David Winfree in the 13th round of the 2003 draft out of Virginia Beach high school. He used to play third base, but he got moved to the outfield, where he is not a very good defender. At AAA last year he had 14 homers, 31 doubles, 3 triples, 28 walks, and 88 strikeouts in 422 at-bats. He doesn’t have a very good on-base percentage with .317, but his slugging percentage was .460. I doubt he would be a starter in the majors with poor defense and on-base percentage. But he does have some power in that bat, so he could make it as a backup outfielder who is a decent pinch-hitter.
