If Jeremy Zoll has the same offseason habits as Derek Falvey, there might be a few more moves on the way. Nonetheless, let’s try to map out what the Opening Day roster might be, given the players who are in the organization right now.

Even the next-best tier is made up mostly of starters, too—guys like Nick Martinez, Justin Verlander, Max Scherzer, Chris Bassitt, Lucas Giolito and Zack Littell. For the Minne...19727Tue, 03 Feb 2026 00:07:57 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/rotation-bullpen-or-st-paul-analytically-breaking-down-david-festas-arsenal-r19721/In less than two weeks, pitchers and catchers will report to the Lee Health Sports Complex in Fort Myers, serving as the unofficial start to the 66th season of Minnesota Twins baseball.

When results soured, someone else was usually nearby to take the fall. Executives were shuffled, managers were dismissed, and coaches were swapped out.

There are arms on hand, ideas on the table, and a front office that knows this group will not look the same on Opening Day as it does right now.

The organization has been cautious of his skill set, and some sections of the fanbase still have not bought in, despite nearly 1000 plate appearances of impact offense. After a down 2025, could a focus on reverting his a...19707Sun, 01 Feb 2026 18:22:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/how-rare-is-this-the-weird-timing-of-falveys-departure-r19712/Derek Falvey and the Twins shockingly parted ways on Friday, a mere week and a half before pitchers and catchers report to the Lee Health Sports Complex in Fort Myers.
