If there is NOT interest in Dom Smith on the Twins part, there SHOULD be.

With Lewis to start the season on the IL, this means Brooks Lee will... oops maybe not... I mean Miranda will most likely start out at 3B.

Our injury history shows we will need depth.

Hopefully Lewis can overcome the latest lower body injury miss little time and play at a high level the rest of the year. Broosk Lee has a known chronic back issue, an dhas missed time every year because of it. He should be used primarily as trade bait. hopefully he can get healthy, put up numbers to boost his trade value, but either way he is out again. for how long who knows.

Mickey Gasper apparently went out with a potential significant injury. just the THOUGHT of Gasper would be uttered in a sentence when talking about legitimate Twins plans is scary.  But he has had a good spring. If Gasper is out an extended period, then his 40 man spot should be used for another player.

Dom Smith is suddenly a very solid addition. He has experience in the OF, and while yet another LH OF seems overly redundant, Dom also has value at 1B, where he is an above average defender. HE would be a great platoon player with Ty France. Who else woudl play 1B with righties on the mound?  Julien??  Castro?? The Twins could get him on the cheap after he opted out of his minor league deal in New York with a strong Spring.

I am not hoping for a significant injury to Gasper, but if there is the best move the Twins can make is to sign Dom Smith.
