It's Twins Daily Offseason Handbook Day!

[John Bonnes]

Starting TODAY we're gradually releasing our 2024 Offseason Handbook over the next three weeks. You can get the first gorgeous chapter today by becoming a Caretaker - at a discount!

Over the next three Mondays we'll drop three chapters of the publication, starting today with the Free Agents chapter that you can download NOW. It includes a complete breakdown of the Twins payroll heading into the offseason, along with a list of 30+ Twins' free agents targets and their contract estimates.

But there's more coming! Next week we'll take a look at the internal decisions the Twins need to make including a thorough depth chart of the organization, from the majors to the lowest levels of the minors. We'll also go through the the Twins' most tradable assets, ranked. That leads us into the third week, where we'll look at Trade Targets and Ideas. Plus, you can use all this information to fill out your own 2024 Roster Blueprint and share it with the Twins Daily community.

These all come absolutely free with a Caretaker membership. Our original idea - to place the reader into the decision-making role of the Twins GM - was unique then and is unique now; to our knowledge no other fan base gets this kind of opportunity with this kind of information. You can't buy it. You might find bits an pieces in various places, but you'll get ALL of it by becoming a Caretaker. You'll also get

• Exclusive content all year, like Twins' player mechanics breakdowns by Matthew Trueblood (like this) and Parker Hageman (like this). 
• Early (only?) access to tickets for the Winter Meltdown.
• Exclusive audio reports from Twins spring training.
• Your generous support will be recognized in your comments on Twins Daily.

Plus, now is the perfect time because we're running a rare promotion: use the code 2024HANDBOOK and you'll get a 25% discount on whichever membership you choose. By doing so, you will support a site and community upon which you rely - both during the season and offseason - to feed and support our shared Twins obsession. 

It's a good obsession that led, back in 2009, to the creation of the Offseason Handbook. It's an obsession that led to the creation of Twins Daily in 2012. Hopefully, it's an obsession that we'll feed for the next generation of Twins fans, and you'll help make that happen. 

So THANK YOU for your support and enjoy your Offseason Handbook. Let the offseason begin!

On a similar note, the Athletic listed with the top Twins based on upside potential. Lewis was first, Correa was 13th. Lee was third. Tell me again why we are spending 36 million a year when our budget is going to get tighter due to the TV revenue on Correa?

I think it’s because he’s a proven commodity in the Play-offs, which he showed in October. Also, when healthy, he’s a top 6-7 SS in the game.

An upside list, to me, speaks to guys that haven’t done a bunch yet. Not the case with CC.

Can’t live in a world of hindsight. Not expecting this, but what if Lewis is hurt again in May - how’s the list work out then?

Then Lee steps up. Question is, how much could you improve the team with an extra 36 .million to spend
