That flurry came in the middle of the 2018 season when the Twins had a fire sale of veterans who were on expiri...8762Tue, 24 Dec 2019 04:30:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/projecting-minnesota39s-2023-line-up-r8761/C: Mitch Garver Garver has been my pick for starting catcher in each of the last three years (see links below) and he did nothing to change those projections this season. By 2023, he will be 32-years old, so it will be interesting to see how his body handles the rigors of catching.
