But as the old adage goes: You can never have too much pitching, particularly starting pitching. Offseason acquisitions Kenta Maeda, Matt Wisler, and Caleb Theilbar burned the hottest and helped lead the...9966Sun, 11 Oct 2020 03:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/most-valuable-non-prospect-offensive-trade-pieces-r9965/Despite having one of baseball's best offenses, the Twins are averaging less than two runs per postseason game over the last two seasons.

The Australian lefty just never got his footing and looked ineffective in what was essentially a lost season. While there wasn’t a single Twins fan who was arguing to keep Thorpe on the Major League roster by mid season, it may also be a mistake to com...9961Sun, 11 Oct 2020 01:01:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/rebuild-on-the-fly-analyzing-max-kepler39s-future-in-minnesota-r9959/It’s understandable that some Twins fans are asking for radical changes to be made following yet another postseason failure.

Although Rosario has shown patience at the plate, many fans’ patience is wearing thin.

It’s ok, this is just between you and me. There are no wrong answers here (besides RBI). Batting average? Homers? Maybe some wRC+ if you’re feeling spicy?
