Starting pitchers are coming off the board and there is very little Minnesota Twins chatter on the rumor mill so far this offseason. Time to panic? Not yet, but I'm definitely getting uncomfortable.

I think a lot of people need to prepare to be disappointed when the Twins don’t “win” or coming anywhere close to “winning” the off-season. The FO was brought in to develop pitching, not spend a bunch of money signing it. The pipeline is close to producing and I think we should be prepared to see that begin in 2022 and so they probably won’t sign a bunch of guys just to block it.

The Twins currently have two legitimate starting pitchers on the roster and both were *rookies* last season. There is something approaching a zero percent chance of any pitcher in the rotation being blocked at any point in the near future.
