Do we not remember what happened to Danny Santana and Kennys Vargas after great debut years last year?  Superstar status doesn't happen after 1 season, let alone 34 games.

Of course it doesn't. Comparing guys that were considered fringe level prospects to a top 5 prospect in MLB though probably isn't a great plan of action...

Arcia was arguably as good a hitter in the minors, and is back there. And Dozier is finding out that if you only hit one pitch out of the park, it leaves an awful lot of plate to cover. I do agree Sano will be awfully good. But I think the annointment might be premature. Plus, since that epic day in July, I think the Twins are about 15-20.

The Win-Loss record has nothing to do with Sano or any individual player. Obviously it takes more than one player for a team to win on any given day or over any period of time. 

Also, check the Walk:Strikeout rates of the Santana, Vargas and Arcia trio compared to Sano. Much better knowledge of the strike zone.

Obviously, he'll have to make a bunch of adjustments over time. 

First off, I don't recall mentioning Santana or Vargas in my comment. That said, I am not sure if your data represented minor league or MLB numbers or both. Either way, Sano does draw walks, and does strike out a lot. I don't need advance metrics to tell me that he is not the free swinger that Oswaldo is. As Nelson pointed out in his article, Arcia had 34 HR's in his part time seasons, third most for anyone under 24. That's not chump change. His numbers when he got injured were decent, and unlike everyone else when his medical issues cleared, he just got left in Rochester. Something is amiss there, as his hot streak numbers nor his cold streak numbers seem Immaterial to his return. Back to Sano. I love him. I went to Beloit just to see him play. My comments were meant to address that the fawning may be slightly premature. I am not sure he has even been to all the parks in the AL Central yet?

My point is much simpler than you are trying to make it however. You don't compare Brian Dozier or Oswaldo Arcia as a measuring stick to Sano at any point in the minor league careers. Arcia and Dozier were nowhere near the same level of prospect.

Sano has an incredibly small sample size yea, he also has an incredibly high ceiling that his success has only pushed higher.

As far your comment about Arcia production being disregarded in relation to how he's handled, wait til September. He had a hot HR streak but struck out a ton and did little else. Now he can't hit his was out of a paper bag and is hurt. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a shot in September because the Twins have to make a decision on him in 2016, but I wouldn't be shocked if he was looked over either.

At its core though, Miguel Sano and Oswaldo Arcia shouldn't be compared in projecting past results or future success.

Sano is a charismatic individual that has the personality to be the face of a franchise. With Joe Mauer stepping aside to usher in the next wave of youth, the Twins young stars will become the emulated ballplayers of the future.

Have to question the Mauer stepping aside statement.  I'm not seeing Mauer stepping  aside willingly for the next 3 seasons given he has $23M reasons not to.  A lot can happen between now and then.
