2nd annual Lenz family Opening Day! Weather was great (in LF, at least), Target Field’s facelift looked good, and a Sonny Gray was on fire!
Good to see you at the pregame party!
This is a head scratching observation more than analysis and anger, but through six games Joey Gallo has been used as a platoon at first base. Is that role really playing to his strengths and what’s best for the team?

The Twins start the season 3-0 and while some areas are all sunshine and rainbows (looking at you, starters) other areas leave more to be desired (looking at you, Max Kepler). Is it too soon to look at some changes?

Rocco Baldelli told reporters that Buxton will be the primary DH to start the season as they build him up in center field. The sky surely isn’t falling but this isn’t great news for a team coming off two disappointing season. What impact will this have on the club on both sides of the ball?

Recently, Derek Falvey made comments regarding the possibility of utilizing a 6-man rotation. The Twins surely have depth at starting pitching, but do they have the health and in-game management belief system in place to make it feasible?

As the prospect crew at Twins Daily is rolling out their top prospects, there are two who I think are flying under the radar. After wildly successful 2022 seasons, keep an eye on them to repeat and improve their prospect status in 2023.

The Twins haven’t gotten the offers they were hoping for in a Kepler trade, which means he’s likely to be on the Opening Day roster. With nine outfielders on the active roster, what is the role of each player?

I hope I’m wrong and tbh I’m not expecting them to all suck. Just don’t think people are realizing there is a possibility that “the plan” doesn’t work out for the third consecutive season.
Honestly not being a dick..trying to be helpful, but when you use Fangraphs you can just call it fWAR or bWAR for baseball reference.
Imagine a world where Kepler’s offense isn’t saved by the shift being banned, Buxton misses significant time (again), and 2022 Joey Gallo wasn’t a fluke. Woof.
