The Twins have been on the lower end of mediocre this year and at the roster has been a mess. Looking ahead to 2015 is currently the funnest thing to do as a Twins fan. After looking at the Twins options for bullpen and the starting rotations in my previous blogs, I will now offer my opinions on players the Twins have available to them on the position side of things. This area in my opinion is the most likely area the Twins have available to add improvements via free agency. Without further ado, lets look at who the Twins have available at AAA and the majors for position.

I would say on this section of the roster, much more then the bullpen and the starting rotation, is more in-flux and cluttered with players who have question marks. Chris Colabello, Danny Santana, Chris Parmalee, Aaron Hicks and Jordan Schaffer. The problem is the Twins do not have anybody in the system who could step up and improve the product on the big league field. So if the Twins want to spend in the off-season this is where they should put their money. For the sake of argument, the Twins should target an off-season back up catcher to improve their team. The Twins have an in house option Josmil Pinto, who should get the job. But if he doesn't who is the best option available who will be willing to play part time? The only Free agent catcher who might play part time and who would be available would be AJ Pierzynski. He would be the best pick up in my opinion should the Twins target a catcher. The Twins are set at first base and second base. The Twins could upgrade at shortstop this off season if they picked up Jed Lowrie or Hanley Ramirez. Both would be expensive, but that is fine, the Twins can afford one or the other, however I prefer the Twins trade for one the Cubs shortstops or one of the Texas shortstops. There really are not any options at third that via free agency that would provide an upgrade so lets move on to the outfield. As expected, there are several options here who the Twins could pick up to improve the current big league club. Melky Cabrera, Denard Span, Nick Markakias, Nelson Cruz, Torii Hunter and Alex Rios would all be upgrades over the current Twins outfield.

What Should the Twins do in your opinion?
