Minnesota Twins 2026 Position Analysis: Left Field

[TheLeviathan]

I truly don't understand why Larnach was tendered and then not traded.  He's too slow-footed for the OF and we have other guys I'd rather have that spot like Outman and Roden.

The floor for left field is probably 1.0 WAR. The midpoint from the opening day likely guys is probably like 1.5 WAR and the ceiling is more like 2.0 WAR. Basically, left field will likely be adequate for a competitive team, but it's also probably not helping the Twins make the playoffs or anything.

Bader was awesome last season.

Bader is a "baseball player".  He was a joy to watch play the game.
