The Minnesota Twins smashed a record 307 home runs in 2019 and, judging by their first-round selection in the 2020 amateur draft, it sure seems like they would like to ensure a similar brand of high-scoring baseball in future years. The Twins welcomed North Carolina first baseman Aaron Sabato to the organization with pick No. 27 overall and while most regard him as a fine prospect (and choosing him in the spot they did is not regarded as a reach), this is not Spencer Torkelson, either. Perhaps, for our purposes, this is not such a bad thing.
