If you want a serious look at bullpen options for 2022, check out Jamie Cameron&#x2019;s article from Friday on that very topic. Astudillo will never be seriously considered as a pitcher, partially because selling such a decision to the...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">11450</guid><pubDate>Sun, 24 Oct 2021 11:14:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>The Twins Don&#x2019;t Need a High End Utilityman</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-twins-don%E2%80%99t-need-a-high-end-utilityman-r11447/</link><description>Let's just be upfront about this. The utilityman market isn&#x2019;t incredibly ripe with players this winter. This is directly referencing Dodgers star Chris Taylor. After years in the October spotlight with Los Angeles, yet another standout postseason performance in 2021 has Twins fans dreaming, and...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">11447</guid><pubDate>Sat, 23 Oct 2021 11:15:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>3 Free Agent Relief Pitching Additions Who Fit The Twins Offseason Strategy</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/3-free-agent-relief-pitching-additions-who-fit-the-twins-offseason-strategy-r11446/</link><description>It was already over by May 1st. The futility of the Twins 2021 season was summed up by the first-half performance of its pitching staff. The Twins hurlers collected a pitifully sad 4.4 fWAR in the first half of the season, good for 29th in MLB. For the sake of comparison, the White Sox, who had...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">11446</guid><pubDate>Fri, 22 Oct 2021 15:38:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins Fans Living Vicariously Through Rosario</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-fans-living-vicariously-through-rosario-r11444/</link><description>At the end of the 2020 season, Rosario posted just a 1.0 fWAR which was worth $7.7 million. He was projected to land somewhere in the $10 million range through arbitration and fell short of that number again in 2021, putting up a 0.9 fWAR and $7.3 million valuation. The Twins saw that Rosario ha...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">11444</guid><pubDate>Thu, 21 Oct 2021 16:55:03 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Revisiting the Eddie Rosario Decision</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/revisiting-the-eddie-rosario-decision-r11442/</link><description>Last December, the Twins had a tough decision to make about offering a contract to Eddie Rosario. He was heading to his final year of arbitration eligibility, and he was expected to cost around $12 million in arbitration. To put that in perspective, Rosario was coming off a season where FanGraph...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">11442</guid><pubDate>Thu, 21 Oct 2021 16:55:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>The Twins Would Be Wise to Avoid Signing Zack Greinke</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-twins-would-be-wise-to-avoid-signing-zack-greinke-r11440/</link><description>Zack Greinke &#x2014; a six-time All-Star and the 2009 AL Cy Young recipient &#x2014; will be among the marquee names in free agency following the conclusion of the World Series, along with the likes of Justin Verlander, Clayton Kershaw, and Max Scherzer.

It was clear what he could provide with his on-field performance, but he meant just as much off the field. In parts of three seasons, he hit .304/.386/.598 (.984) with a 162 OPS+. His Twins tenure started with the r...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">11439</guid><pubDate>Thu, 21 Oct 2021 11:48:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Things Twins Players Did This Week</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/things-twins-players-did-this-week-r11443/</link><description>Taylor Rogers watched Tyler Rogers Pitch for the First Time




	Despite a heartbreaking Game 5 loss to the Dodgers, the silver lining was that Taylor finally got to watch Tyler pitch in person for the first time.

While all of those things are true, the more significant...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">11441</guid><pubDate>Wed, 20 Oct 2021 15:14:54 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Is Jorge Polanco the Twins' Most Valuable Trade Asset?</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/is-jorge-polanco-the-twins-most-valuable-trade-asset-r11436/</link><description>Jorge Polanco was named the Twins Daily MVP, and he showed that his ankle issues might be in the rearview mirror. Now Minnesota is facing an uncertain future after losing nearly 90-games. The organization needs to add pitching depth, and trading for players might be the team's best avenue for ac...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">11436</guid><pubDate>Tue, 19 Oct 2021 13:03:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Don't You...
