No question. That drastically altered the franchise's course, and couldn't have been avoided. But more broadly, there were a lot of things to hate about that season.

Brusdar Graterol, RHP (20)
2018 Ranking: N/A
By the time Graterol turned 20, on August 26th, he had already logged 50 innings in the Advanced-A Florida State League, striking out 46 and allowing zero home runs. As one of the youngest players to throw a pitch in the FSL, the hard-throwing righty...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">7428</guid><pubDate>Fri, 04 Jan 2019 01:57:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins Need to Cruz Above the Line</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-need-to-cruz-above-the-line-r7427/</link><description>In coming up with his 3.0 fWAR total, Steamer has Cruz slated for a .282/.361/.533 slash line with 36 homers and 104 RBI. For a guy who&#x2019;s played a grand total of nine games in the field since 2016, it&#x2019;s his bat that will solely carry the production.

Roy Halladay: Tragically, Halladay won&#x2019;t be in Cooperstown to give an acceptance speech. He crashed his plane into the Gulf of Mexico in November 2017. Halladay might be the last pitcher of a former era. He compiled 67 complete games in his career and he needed fewer than 100 pitches...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">7426</guid><pubDate>Thu, 03 Jan 2019 03:12:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>The Top 20 Minnesota Twins Assets of 2019: Part 3 (6-10)</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-top-20-minnesota-twins-assets-of-2019-part-3-6-10-r7424/</link><description>10. Taylor Rogers, LHP (28)
2018 Ranking: 15
In 2017, it looked like Rogers might be starting to emerge as one of the better relief pitchers in all of baseball. In 2018, he hammered that distinction home. While logging career highs in innings (68.1) and appearances (72), the southpaw posted number...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">7424</guid><pubDate>Wed, 02 Jan 2019 02:06:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>2018 Twins Daily Top 30 Most-Viewed Articles: Part 1 (21-30)</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/2018-twins-daily-top-30-most-viewed-articles-part-1-21-30-r7422/</link><description>In Part 1 today, find out which articles ranked 21 - 30 in terms of most viewed articles of 2018.

So it shouldn&#x2019;t be so bad to just write about eight of them this year. Some made strong first impressions. Some struggled. Most are somewhere in the middle.

Stephen Gonsalves, LHP (24)
2018 Ranking: 10
In some ways, Gonsalves took a big step forward in 2018. He pitched brilliantly over 100 innings at Triple-A, solidifying his supremacy over minor-league hitters. He then received his first promotion to the big leagues, making seven appearances for...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">7420</guid><pubDate>Mon, 31 Dec 2018 00:49:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>What You Need To Know About Nelson Cruz</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/what-you-need-to-know-about-nelson-cruz-r7419/</link><description>Cruz&#x2019;s ability to put the sweetest spot of the bat on the ripest part of the ball over the last several seasons has been near baby-making quality.
