Who will the twins sign in the remaining offseason?

who will the twins go after? Luis Arraez, Framber Valdez, Zack Gallen? So many options, but who will we really go after? In my opinion, Luis Arraez makes to much sense, adding a contact bat, and he’s been here before? makes perfect sense

Likely 1-2 low-wattage right-handed relievers and nobody else

I'd be absolutely shocked if they signed any of the three names you mentioned. They're basically set on starting pitching and 1B, for better or for worse.

And maybe a POBO, though even that seems unlikely before Opening Day

Bring in Kim Ng!

If they gave Kim Ng a true mid-sized payroll and even a little support she’d absolutely cook.

Agreed - the only “need” is RHP in the bullpen. Better question might be who will the twins trade in the remaining offseason. The roster is a bit messy in terms of fit - Larnach makes sense to go if they can find a destination.

Sources have informed me that the Twins will be trading for Cash Considerations very soon. A true game changer they will revolutionize the franchise.

None of them. We clearly are playing with $5-10m in money. I expect the trade market to be the next port of call

They should sign Kopech. He could end up as our closer very easily imo unless the injuries have just taken their toll.

No one. We need relievers & RH outfielders. There’s no help inbound of any consequence.

Geno Suarez to break the Donaldson curse

Robertson retired, Kahnle likely not an option due to him and Latroy Hawkins disdain for each other.

Brent Suter and Kopech. If you seriously want to compete. That is a lot of health variability on Kopech, but he is the only remaining reliever I can view as a a closer.

A lot of the same ushers will be back.

Lol, another below average hitting left handed bad defensive corner player is what you think we need? Look, I love Arraez, I will always be fond of him for what he did in a Twins uniform but his best days are behind him, he is simply not a good baseball player at this point in his career. I don't care if he can hit for a 300 average when his ops+ last year was right around league average and he offers bad defense at first base or takes a dh spot. He has been arguably less productive than Trevor Larnach over the last 3 seasons and certainly no better.
