Buck isnt going to take away AB’s in ‘27. He will get his and everyone else will get theirs. We actually should have a nice mix of LH and RH OF bats. Hendry Mendez should spend the offseason learning 1B. Dude has the bat already.
Tinney might be in Wichita by July so Royce might be playing his last season n MN.
Houston and Winokur need to bring their best AB’s to AAA in ‘27. They, along with Mendez should be the ‘27 rookie crop standouts! A few other guys in AAA and AA need to develop their game to get any serious run in MLB.
Tanking is probably in the best long term interest of the ‘26 Twins. Get your development in but lose on the scoreboard. A top 6 pick would be nice next July!
