Quentin Young's strong power numbers highlight Twins' prospect challenges

Quentin Young, a 19-year-old infield prospect for the Minnesota Twins, is having a tumultuous first full season with the Fort Myers Mighty Mussels in Single-A. Despite leading the Florida State League with a 19.9% barrel rate, Young has a 44.8% strikeout rate, the highest among qualified hitters. He currently holds a batting average of.213 and a wRC+ of 77. His performance follows a successful senior year where he hit 14 home runs. Young’s advanced power contrasts with his contact challenges, leaving his future development uncertain.
