The Minnesota Twins are looking to bounce back after a challenging season, with promising prospects like Emmanuel Rodriguez at the forefront. Rodriguez, who had a limited season due to injuries, showcased his potential with a strong batting average and on-base percentage in the minors.

Despite concerns about his passive hitting style and injury history, Twins President Derek Falvey remains optimistic about Rodriguez's future impact. The team is also exploring trade options, particularly for pitcher Chris Paddack, as they aim to enhance their roster while managing payroll constraints.
