We've already discussed what four teams – the Red Sox, Cardinals, Dodgers, and Rockies – should do this offseason to improve themselves after being eliminated from the postseason, but we never touched on the Twins.
Minnesota has a handful of players due to become a free agents, most notably Orlando Cabrera, Ron Mahay, Joe Crede, Mike Redmond, and Carl Pavano. Jesse Crain, Matt Guerrier, Delmon Young, and Francisco Liriano are all eligible for arbitration, and the team holds a $2.9MM club option ($100K buyout) on reliever Jon Rauch.
In addition to strengthening the roster, it would also behoove the team to, at the very least, begin discussions with Joe Mauer's camp about an extension this winter. What do you guys and gals think the Twins should do this offseason to make a run in the winnable AL Central next year?
