    Coming into spring training, it seemed that Trevor Larnach might serve as the Twins most regular designated hitter. With Joey Gallo looking to handle left field, Alex Kirilloff slated for first base, and Max Kepler still on the team, that was a fair thought. Things got murky when Donovan Solano was...

But make no mistake: the versatile defender and lefty masher can play a big role in the team's s...

    Throughout the Twins' history, some tremendous players have filled the designated hitter role. For some players like Tony Oliva, the shift to DH was necessary because of mounting injuries.

    The AL Central is expected to be very tight and, according to projections and betting lines, the Twins are projected to finish second or third.

    Adding a right-handed bat has been a talking point for the Minnesota Twins all off-season.
