I was pleased to recall from another article that Molitor is a roving instructor. I assume he's following both Rosario and Sano to New Britain to make sure that this precisely doesn't happen.

That second part is definitely true as soon as he adjusts to the steady diet of non-straight stuff they're going to feed him. That happened in Beloit last year and resulted in a lengthy lull that he did snap out of with an increased willingness to just take walks. These breaking pitches will be better in every way, but if the approach sticks he's got a chance.

This has suddenly become a watchable affiliate now, with at least four (Sano, Rosario, Meyer, and Santana) of the Twins top-10 and possibly a fifth with Trevor May.
