In episode 69 of Destination: The Show, Jeremy and Jamie, dig into a full mailbag of Twins prospect questions. They start with questions on prospects at the top of the Twins system, asking what Emmanuel Rodriguez’ role with the big league club will be and what kind of performance markers Walker Jenkins would need to demonstrate to move to AAA.

The guys then jump into pitchers most likely to move up multiple levels in 2025, the prospects they are most looking forward to seeing at Cedar Rapids and get Theo on to give his best guess at the Saints rotation to start the 2025 season. Finally, Jeremy and Jamie recap their favorite Twins drafts, predict which pitching and hitting prospects will have the best 2025, talk about Dylan Questad and try to identify the biggest weaknesses in the Twins system before closing on reasonable 2025 expectations for Charlee Soto.
