A 5 Word Guide to Every Draft Pick

Sure we're a couple weeks late, and several hundreds of posts short...but we couldn't resist the temptation to continue our annual tradition of giving a run down of every single Twins draft pick for the busy fan. So keep your detailed scouting reports, don't bother worrying over their ETAs in the big leagues, just appreciate the simplicity of five words for every player. (As always, numbers and punctuation don't count)
