JD on Rainiel Rodriguez (Sep 17, 2026): Rainiel may have put up one of the best full season stat lines for a teenager in AA this year - .328/.408/.591 - and I still don't think he is getting enough credit for hit. He potentially the best hit tools in the minors, and I think he has a real chance to be a contributor at the big league level as a 20 year old in 2027. I would buy him wherever you can, and there is only a handful of rookie eligible guys I wouldn't trade straight up for him. (Made, Leo, Jenkins)
JD on Walker Jenkins (Sep 11, 2026): Not a great start from Jenkins in his big league debut, but I'm giving him a lot of grace. Why are the Twins hitting him 9th? You don't take a Ferrari out of the garage to drive it 25 mph on surface streets. You push it to see what you can get out of it. I would like to see the Twins put Jenkins in the two spot and see if he can get comfortable at the big league level, but for the time being I guess every day at-bats out of the nine hole is not the worst-case scenario for a September callup.
