The pitcher that stymied the Twins for 5 innings last night (and that you’d never heard of) is one month YOUNGER than Prielipp…and chosen 5 rounds later than Prielipp in the 2022 draft.
One, always reject the narrative this org has any special ability to identify and develop amateur arms.
Two, reject the narrative that Prielipp has been ‘dominant’ in AA this year. He hasn’t been. Due to the injuries, Prielipp was a lottery ticket draft pick…albeit high-ceiling lottery pick.. And, again in large part due to injuries, he remains a long-shot as a starter.
