Cody Bellinger should be a priority.  As the Twins' lineup toils away, many fans and analysts have brought up superstars such as Nolan Arenado and Paul Goldschmidt as trade targets to...14646Fri, 21 Jul 2023 19:24:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/joe-ryan-is-the-twins-most-valuable-trade-asset-r14641/Young and controllable starting pitching is one of the most valuable assets for any organization.

One of the changes could be the firing of manager Rocco Baldelli. If Baldelli gets fired, would former Twins slugger Nelson Cruz make sense as his successor?

So, which players are in the conversation for a Gold Glove?   Defensive metrics have come a long way over the last decade.
