- Twins American League Central Odds 27/10
- Twins American League Odds 20/1
- Twins World Series Odds 50/1
Key Additions:
- CJ Cron
- Jonathan Schoop

- Marwin Gonzalez
There was some concern early in the offseason that the Twins weren’t going to be spending much money this offseason but that wasn’t the case.

They added CJ Cron, Jonathan Schoop who will solid players in the lineup. They also signed Nelson Cruz to hit a lot of homers out of Target Field.
They also added Marwin Gonzalez who can play any position and should be a big part of the lineup for the next few years.
Key Losses:
- Logan Morrison
- Joe Mauer
The biggest loss this offseason is Joe Mauer who decided to hang up the cleats. Not only was he a good player, he was the face of the franchise.
His locker room presence is going to be really missed.
2019 Minnesota Twins Predictions: Projected Lineup:
-
- Jorge Polanco
- C.J. Cron
- Eddie Rosario
- Nelson Cruz
- Jonathan Schoop
- Marwin Gonzalez
- Max Kepler
- Jason Castro
- Byron Buxton
This is a solid lineup and Sano isn’t even in the lineup yet as he comes back from injury. Once he is back, the lineup has even more power in the middle.
If Buxton can continue the hot streak from Spring Training, this can be the best lineup in American League Central.
2019 Minnesota Twins Predictions: Projected Rotation:
- RHP Jose Berrios
- RHP Kyle Gibson
- RHP Jake Odorizzi
- RHP Michael Pineda
- LHP Stephen Gonsalves
Jose Berrios is the ace, and Kyle Gibson had a nice year last year. The big question marks are what will the last three guys do in the rotation.
2019 Minnesota Twins Predictions: Projected Closer:
- Trevor May
Trevor May missed the 2017 season with injury and part of last season, but he was strong when he came back. In 24 appearances last year he went 4-1 with an ERA of 3.20.
He also saved three games.
