It appears that Falvine need to increase payroll for the Twins to have a chance at a World Series title in 2023. It would be ill-advised to spend a great deal on a shortstop but nickles and dimes on starting pitchers and relief pitchers, due to the fact that this plan has malfunctioned in previous years. Accordingly, Falvine would be shrewd to allocate their funds to starting pitchers and relief pitchers. Relief pitching specifically has been a major constituent in the team's failures during the past four seasons. Nevertheless, shortstop is an awfully important position on the baseball field, one that Falvine cannot afford to neglect this offseason. All Twins fans are au courant of the complications that arise when the team is without a serviceable defensive shortstop. If Falvine is to forsake the shortstop position this offseason, the Twins will suffer as a result. Therefore, Falvine have no choice but to enlarge payroll in 2023. If acquiring Carlos Correa and Carlos Rodon is feasible, Falvine would be astute to do so. Even then, relief pitching remains a need. They are obliged to attack it aggressively this offseason, so as to eliminate any imaginable implosion in the season's commencement. While some might claim that ownership of a closer is overvalued, I assert that it is the sine qua non for any team aspiring to win the World Series. There are several "fireballers" available this offseason. The Twins' bullpen would be strikingly improved with the addition of such a "fireballer" to pair with the amazing Johan Duran. Overall, Falvine needs to facilitate significant additions at the shortstop, starting pitcher, and relief pitcher positions so as to compete for a World Series title in 2023. They will be required to raise the team's payroll in order to execute this.

We’re winning the World Series?!?!

He was one of the best closers in baseball in his ROOKIE SEASON Keep him there

Agreed. What the hell has he done to warrant it?

How I wish MLB had a salary cap...

Well Green Bay is some pile of **** this year

Rogers, Paddack, and Pagan were all godawful this season. That only means one thing for both teams...

I don't believe the Twins were in the market for a manager this offseason

I don't

I would like to see the Twins get something for Pagan. Although, I’m not sure who would be willing to trade for him. He was rough this year.

Yep, and the Eagles are definitely finishing better than 11-6.

Eh…IDK. I think the Dallas game could be tough as well. They’ve beaten us the last two years with a backup QB. That being said this time we have a huge advantage at head coach.

Well, Cooper Rush looks like…er…uhhh…Cooper Rush tonight.

Meanwhile the Packers are losing to the Jets at home. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Good lord. How are we 4-1?

These Thursday Night games have been damn near unwatchable. Great investment, Jeff Bezos

Will the Twins Pursue Aaron Judge? Sure. Even pigs will learn to fly eventually. If that's possible, anything is possible!

Glad we’re 4-1 but we need to clean it up and actually blow teams out. A couple teams in the past have amazingly gone 13-3 winning games like this. They didn’t fare very well in the postseason though.

How ironic that the Guardians hit the walk-off HR against the former Guardian Corey Kluber.

Good point. I will move this thread to that forum.

Yeah

I can't remember what my prediction was off the top of my head, but I definitely thought they would do better than 78-84.

This thread is for discussion about the 2022 MLB Postseason. This year’s playoff teams are as follows. American League 1. Houston Astros (106-56) 2. New York Yankees (99-63) 3.
