Midwest League Managers

Nelson Prada

One Midwest League season, with another on tap:

Manager, Beloit [Twins] (2008-09)

Playing Career

Drafted/Signed: Twins, free agent, 1995.
Professional Career: Four professional seasons in the Twins organization, all in the low minors.
Midwest League: Played for the Fort Wayne Wizards in 1997.

Management style

At this point, Prada looks like a pretty conventional Midwest League manager--though he asked his guys to bunt a lot in 2008.
