Scouting report
There's no change to Teng's blurb as he was not stateside for any 2020 activity: Teng was one of two players, along with Yunior Severino, who the Twins signed after voiding amateur shortstop Jelfy Marte's $3 million deal due to vision issues; they then flipped Teng to the Giants with Berroa for the recently-suspended Sam Dyson. Teng has a thick lower half and is a middling athlete, but he's very well balanced over his blocking leg and otherwise has a smooth delivery that should not only enable him to throw enough strikes to remain a starter, but perhaps develop plus command, as well. There's already strong breaking ball utility here, the ability to vary shape based on location, and competitive, arm-side changeup feel, too. Teng's frame is maxed out, so he probably won't add velo, but that's still a No. 4/5 skillset. (At-home dev)
