The top prospects in the Twins farm system who have yet to make their major league debut (last 2012 team listed):

1. Miguel Sano, 3B, Beloit: Power potential worth drooling over.

2. Eddie Rosario, 2B, Beloit: Good bat. Will move to second work out?

3. Oswaldo Arcia, OF, New Britain: Could be prototypical corner outfielder.

4. Aaron Hicks, OF, New Britain: Finally starting to put it all together.

5. Byron Buxton, OF, Elizabethton: Faster than Ben Revere; better power potential.

6. Kyle Gibson, RHP, Rochester: All the way back from Tommy John surgery.

7. Jose Berrios, RHP, Elizabethton: Hard-throwing starting pitching prospect.

8. B.J. Hermsen, RHP, New Britain: Starter who relies on good control.

9. Mason Melotakis, LHP, Beloit: Hits 97 on the gun. Will he start or relieve?

10. Michael Tonkin, RHP, Fort Myers: Reliever averaged 12.6 Ks per nine innings.
