Most statistically-inclined minds would like to hear that the team is working on finding the next market inefficiency to exploit or running regression models on supercomputers in efforts to find an in-g...3131Fri, 10 Oct 2014 06:05:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/postseason-review-eduardo-escobar-r3128/Entering 2014, Eduardo Escobar was pegged by most as a standard-order utility infielder. He was a switch-hitter with a pretty good glove and OK speed who had demonstrated the ability to capably fill in at short, third and second. There was some chatter that EE shouldn't make the Twins coming out o...3128Fri, 10 Oct 2014 04:35:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/fantasy-perspectives-2014-minnesota-twins-r3129/Millions of people play fantasy baseball each year. In recent years, few Minnesota Twins players have been high draft picks in fantasy drafts. Today, I thought it would be fun to see how several Twins players ranked at their respective positions. (Looking for help with your Fantasy Football Lineup...3129Thu, 09 Oct 2014 06:27:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/if-i-owned-the-twins-r3125/It’s that time of the year when everyone offers up his opinions on how he'd improve the Twins if he owned the team. Like everyone else-- see George Steinbrenner--I’m going to ignore the fact that the role of owner is distinct from the roles of general manager and manager. If I owned the Twins… If...3125Wed, 08 Oct 2014 12:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/what-will-be-the-twins39-identity-r3127/On Friday, the Baltimore Orioles and Kansas City Royals will kick off the American League Championship Series. Both teams had successful seasons and have had extremely successful postseasons thus far. They've reached a stage that the Twins, obviously, would like to return to, so it makes sense to...3127Wed, 08 Oct 2014 02:07:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/postseason-review-joe-mauer-r3122/Joe Mauer is a former MVP and a three-time batting champion. As a catcher, he has won five Silver Sluggers and three Gold Gloves. These are Hall of Fame credentials for a 31-year-old. Last year, Mauer was shut down after suffering a concussion. The symptoms were present until well into the offseas...3122Tue, 07 Oct 2014 20:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/postseason-review-brian-dozier-r3121/In my book, Brian Dozier was the Twins best position player in 2013. He had a better year in 2014 and again, I think he was the best everyday player on the team. Dozier is a study in contrasts--he isn't a big guy, but has led the team in home runs the last two years. He is a converted shortstop wh...3121Tue, 07 Oct 2014 18:06:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/gleeman-amp-the-geek-ep-165-mike-berardino-and-manager-searches-r3123/Aaron and John are joined by special guest Mike Berardino of the St. Paul Pioneer Press at New Bohemia to drink beer, eat an enormous pretzel and talk about the Twins' managerial search and expectations for the offseason.

Struggling to keep up? No worries.

It is hot stove league time, at least as far as my favorite team is concerned. Much virtual ink has been spilled discussing perhaps as many as a dozen key players. I thought I would blog about some of these guys and perhaps start a conversation. I will start with 201...3115Sat, 04 Oct 2014 12:00:00 +0000
