Minnesota put out a few different social media posts and noted that they had designated reliever Ralph Garza Jr. to make room for Correa on the 40-man roster.

Inked to a three-year contract worth $105.3 million, Correa gives Minnesota a strong option at a position of need. However, what immediately became apparent in the deal is t...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">12012</guid><pubDate>Tue, 22 Mar 2022 11:20:07 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins 2022 Position Analysis: First Base</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-position-analysis-first-base-sano-kirilloff/</link><description>Projected Starter: Miguel San&#xF3;

	THE GOOD




	Miguel San&#xF3; is capable of putting forth production that would make him a prototypical slugging first baseman.

At the start of the offseason, the Twins had 12 players who were arbitration and added a thirteenth and fourteenth via a couple of offseason transactions we'll review later in the article.

The injury cut his 2021 season in half. The right-middle finger has been an issue for him since last season.&#xA0;

Correa and Buxton were the first two picks in the 2012 MLB Draft, and Correa has played 259 more games than Buxton. However, Correa has missed time with injur...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">12008</guid><pubDate>Mon, 21 Mar 2022 13:00:13 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Offseason Status Update: Here Comes Correa</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-offseason-news-correa-smith-donaldson-montas/</link><description>Spring training is fully underway but that doesn't mean Hot Stove SZN is over.

As constructed before the lockout, the Twins were looking at another down year, with speculation looming of a rebuild, retool, or anything in-between.

Throughout the offseason, the Twins planned to rotate through various players in the DH role, but there has been a roster turnover since the lockout ended.
