Joey Maiers

A lot of you probably won't like this, but I'm ready for a big shakeup this offseason. Being a great regular season team that does absolutely zero in the playoffs doesn't sit well with me. At some point, they have to accept that maybe these guys just don't have what it takes to perform on the biggest stage. I'd make everyone available (offensively) except Donaldson, Arraez, Buxton, the catchers, and maybe Sano. Other than that, I'd make a full blown effort to resign Cruz and usher in the Royce Lewis, Alex Kiriloff, and Brent Rooker era. Go sign an experienced bat or something, I don't know, but something has got to change. Pitching staff kills, so even adding Bauer, which some speculate might happen, would not matter much because the pitching was fantastic in the playoffs. It just seems like these guys have no killer instinct, which is obviously not a tangible thing, but there are definitely guys you see rise to the occasion on the biggest stages. Lastly, as I'm typing this, Jake Odorizzi came onto the field postgame and was just taking it all in and now I'm in my feels, gotta go drink a sad beer. Goodnight Twins fans.
