MINNESOTA TWINS

Team Strengths: Despite All the Battles of Miguel Sano and Byron Buxton, the Twins finished 13th in the majors in runs scored last year.

Eddie Rosario, Max Kepler and Jake Cave headed an underrated outfield, while Jorge Polanco continued to grow to a solid-hitting shortstop. The Twins added Nelson Cruz, C.J. Cron and Jonathan Schoop in free service, fixing a righthanded power deficit, in addition to versatile utilityman Marwin Gonzalez.
Team Weaknesses: The Twins drafted and signed 21 pitchers in the top three rounds from 2008-15 and have just two starters to show for this. While Jose Berrios and Kyle Gibson are principles in the turning, the battles to come up with additional thickness has abandoned the Twins short of arms and donated to a 4.50 ERA last year, 22nd in the majors.
What They Did About It: The Twins mainly stayed to address their pitching shortage. Fernando Romero, Stephen Gonsalves and Kohl Stewart made the debuts last year and have a opportunity to play larger roles this season. As he recovered from Tommy John surgery, michael Pineda, who signed, will create his Twins introduction this year too.
Final Outlook: Additional pitching thickness that was increased and power have the Twins to compete than a year. Whether Sano and Buxton could find their 2017 kind will go a long way toward determining if they struggle the Indians.
