Eduardo Tait a Big Riser in Latest Prospect Ranks
Minnesota Twins catching prospect Eduardo Tait was a big riser on MLB.com's August refresh of their top prospects list, moving up 39 spots from No. 93 to No. 54. The Panamanian backstop was recently acquired by the Twins in the trade that sent closer Jhoan Duran to the Phillies and now slots in as the Twins' second-ranked prospect. The 18-year-old is hitting .254 on the year with 12 home runs in 90 games between the two organizations, striking out at a better-than-average rate of 18.8 percent, and is so young that he could grow into even more power. He's still a few years away from the majors, though, so his progress should be monitored as he could end up as an offensive-minded catcher in the big leagues.
