PROSPECT: Yunior Severino, 3B/2B, Minnesota Twins
ANALYSIS: The switch-hitting Yunior Severino was originally signed by Atlanta as part of their enormous 2016 Latin American class. That class ended up being removed from the organization after the 2017 season due to violations by the Braves in 2016 that would not have allowed them to afford the players they signed.
Severino signed that offseason with the Twins, and many regarded him as the jewel of the crop of newly-minted free agents from the Braves' system. Since then, he has struggled to develop due to the pandemic and significant injuries.
This year, he's finally healthy and hitting like he always showed that he could, slashing .287/.365/.560 with Double-A Wichita before a promotion this past week to Triple-A.
VERDICT: He's worked his way up the system, but at 23, he's still got development to do, such as controlling the strike zone. Watch him, as he could develop quickly similar to Jose Miranda in 2022, but there is no need to roster him right now.
