No matter what a prospect does at the lower levels, AA is clearly the place to pay attention to what a prospect does. Sometimes the Twins will have a prospect repeat at AA. Even top prospects. But eventually, top prospects need to dominate at AA. Hicks began to dominate the last half, last year at AA. This allowed the Twins to trade their 2 best CF's.<br /><br />Both Hunter and Cuddyer struggled the first year at AA. Cuddyer especially, dominated his 2nd year at AA. If a prospect never dominates at AA, they usually don't become a star, although they may still reach the majors. <br /><br />Some prospect gurus look at career minor stats. I think you will get a better read on a prospect's ceiling if you look at what they do at AA.Jim Hnoreply@blogger.com
