2023/01/31

The Minnesota Twins limped to the finish line in a rough September in 2022. The front office has set out to right the wrongs by building quality depth all over the roster. From Kyle Farmer to Michael A. Taylor to Pablo López, the Twins are working to avoid the injury-plagued depth problems from 2022. The 2023 roster is built to withstand more injuries and the Twins hope there are less with the addition of Nick Paparesta to the training staff. What is the true floor for the 2023 club?

The Minnesota Twins, after trading All-Star and AL batting champion Luis Arraez, are expressing quiet confidence in Alex Kirilloff's ability to man first base for a chunk of 2023. Even if Kirilloff returns from wrist surgery healthy and ready to perform, the Twins could still acquire a right-handed first baseman to platoon with Kirilloff. There are two veteran options still on the free agent market in 2020 home run leader Luke Voit and former Astro Yuli Gurriel. Do either of these guys make sense

The Minnesota Twins made another trade Monday, acquiring CF Michael A. Taylor from the Kansas City Royals for relief prospects Steven Cruz and Evan Sisk. The Twins have made an effort to build depth on their roster for 2023, evidenced by their trade for Pablo López. Taylor leads all outfielders in Defensive Runs Saved since 2020 and joins an outfield group with Byron Buxton, Joey Gallo and Max Kepler. This outfield looks to be a special one defensively, with four to six viable options on the grass

In a surprising move for many Minnesota Twins fans, the club traded their fan favorite Luis Arraez in a deal for Miami Marlins starter Pablo López and prospects José Salas and Byron Chourio. While the Twins were in need of another starter capable of producing at a frontline level, Arraez was one of the Twins' best hitters for the last four seasons. Are the Twins projected for more, less or about the same wins after the deal? Was it worth the sting of losing a franchise cornerstone who had three more

As rumors floated throughout the last couple weeks, many speculated on what a package would look like for Pablo López. Well, here it is. The Minnesota Twins have traded Luis Arraez to the Miami Marlins for López, SS José Salas and OF Byron Chourio. It's a massive move for the Twins who decided to trade their primary leadoff man and the 2022 American League batting champion.

Arraez, 25, just won the American League batting title after hitting .316/.375/.420 in 144 games. Arraez is a fan favorite and a beloved figure in the clubhouse.

What's Next for the Twins After Signing Carlos Correa?

2023/01/12

The Minnesota Twins made the Carlos Correa signing official Wednesday afternoon at Target Field. Correa, donning the Twins' new home threads, gushed about his excitement to return to Minnesota. Now that the Twins have their shortstop back, it's fair to wonder what Derek Falvey and Thad Levine will do to further improve the roster before Opening Day. Many Twins fans' first thought is of a frontline starting pitcher. The Twins haven't had a true ace since Johan Santana; what better time than now

Correa, still working to finalize his contract with the New York Mets, may have to make a decision in the coming days. The Twins offered 10 years and $285 million before the Mets and San Francisco Giants balked at his physical. Would they offer that contract again? Likely not without an understanding of his medicals.

The Minnesota Twins had a disappointing finish to the 2022 season as the Cleveland Guardians dominated the head-to-head series, leaving the Twins in the dust at third place in the American League Central. It's easy to forget the breakouts from José Miranda, Griffin Jax and even Luis Arraez, who produced at a career-high level on route to the batting title and All-Star Game.

The Minnesota Twins are coming off a disappointing finish in a 78-84 campaign that saw them finish third in the American League Central. Within that, there were numerous key injuries that hampered them down the stretch, including both Tyler Mahle (shoulder) and Jorge Polanco (knee). Even in such a sad finish, the Twins had multiple breakouts throughout the course of the season.

After word leaked that the San Francisco Giants were in need of more information following Carlos Correa's physical, super-agent Scott Boras made a move. Boras contacted both the Minnesota Twins and New York Mets to gauge their interest in getting a seat back at the table. The Twins were unwilling to increase their 10-year, $285 million offer while Steve Cohen's Mets closed the agreement at 12 years and $315 million.
