Having 13 Pitchers Can Cripple A Team

Originally posted at http://troystwinsdugout.wordpress.com/2014/05/07/having-13-pitchers-can-cripple-a-team/   For most of last year, and almost all of this season so far, the Twins have carried 13 pitchers on their 25 man roster. However, having a 13 man pitching staff has it’s drawbacks, especially when you have a player who’s day to day as in the case of Joe Mauer, who’s currently day to day with back spasms.   With one less player on the bench, you don’t have as much flexibility.

A Look At Chris Colabello's Season So Far

Originally posted at http://troystwinsdugout.wordpress.com/2014/04/30/a-look-at-chris-colabellos-season-so-far/   This past offseason, Chris Colabello received an offer to go overseas and play in South Korea. Instead, he decided that he'd stay here and go to spring training and see if he could be a major league player. He made the 25 man roster out of spring training and has exceeded expectations so far.   In 23 games, Colabello has batted .308/.351/.505 with 3 homeruns, 27 RBIs and 11 runs scor

Keys To The Twins 2014 Season

Originally posted at http://troystwinsdugout.wordpress.com/2014/03/31/keys-to-the-twins-2014-season/   It's getting close to the start of a new season for the Twins. I'm optimistic that the Twins could have a 500 season. You could say I'm being overly optimistic here, but a new season always is a fresh start.   However, there are some things that Twins will have to do in order to have a more successful Season this year.

Originally published at http://troystwinsdugout.wordpress.com/2014/02/27/the-bench-is-the-biggest-question-mark-heading-into-spring-training/   In looking at the Twins roster picture, the bench seems to be the biggest question mark.
