The best people. Really, the BEST.
The Minnesota Twins have committed to paying their minor league players a $400-a-week stipend and their full benefits, including health insurance, through Aug. 31, which is around when the minor league season was scheduled to end, a source tells ESPN.

Yes. A thousand times yes.
The first default mindset of coaching should be: Your players are people. Treat them accordingly. The second default should be: Expect greatness to be possible. Love 'em & coach 'em UP, not down.
