Article: Twins Minor League Report (5/9): Dobnak, Enlow Start Strong

I hope the Twins keep Sano in Rochester for several weeks until he is making consistent enough contact to once again be a threat at the plate in the big leagues.

 

I hope he makes consistent contact and has good at bats for 3 days.... and then is a threat in the bigs for the rest of the season.

I'm not sure why anyone would think we should poison the water with one of our most important players. He's doing fine on his rehab assignment and we need his bat. Gonzalez is posting a 55 OPS+. 

Sorry Gunnar, but I have to disagree that Sano is doing fine on his Rehab assignment.  In his time in AA Sano hit .200 and struck out 35% of the time.  SSS I know, and I'd be less concerned about this if he hit last year with the Twins like he did in 2017.  Unfortunately the AA numbers are similar to what he did for the Twins in 2018.  Is 2018 version of Sano going to help them?  I know Gonzales is struggling, but 2018 version of Sano is not an upgrade.  Hence the reason he needs to stay at AAA until he demonstrates that he is not the 2018 version of Sano.
