Every Twins position player that isn't a catcher has an OPS over .700

[Brock Beauchamp]

From a lineup that is one of the youngest in the league (are they still the youngest?), that's an impressive feat.

 

This is the kind of lineup that could have no weaknesses in 2018-19. Two-thirds of the lineup is 25 or younger and they're all coming into their own.

 

It's like the Royals of 2013-14 except they're actually good at hitting the baseball.

The second half growth of Polanco, Buxton and even Rosario are especially encouraging.  Really glad to see they can win without Sano in the lineup.  

[Rosterman]

And second-half Dozier. Mauer is hot. Rosario has upped his game. Even the catchers have improved their bats. Sadly, it's the bench guys that have backwarded themselves from their season starts- Andrianza, Grossman, and, a bit, Escobar.

I think our group of outfielders will be the envy of most baseball teams around the league the next few years.  It's crazy but Rosario is the oldest at 25.  Throw in Sano and a surging Polanco (ignore the fact we have two great shortstop prospects in the minors right now).  

 

Just focus on getting some pitchers ready and we will be very competitive for many years.

I'd definitely be willing to use one of those SS's (as long as his name isn't Lewis) to get a top-of-the-rotation starter that we can sign to a 5-7 year deal. I keep dreaming of a rotation of Archer-Santana-Berrios-Romero- whoever.

[Shane Wahl]

Granite, Wade, and Gordon are in the pipeline as well.

And what happens if Garver finds the MLB hitting stick we think he might have?

[drjim]

They could probably upgrade at dh without a ton of effort too. They'd go into the season with Kepler and Polanco battling to bat 7 and 8.
