Today, Joe predicts the top 10 Twins players in 2023. These are the players Joe thinks will be the best for the Twins in the upcoming season.

We predict 7 Twins lineups for 2023. We also look at how scary they would be with Lee and Lewis added to those already stellar lineups.

We answer a total of 18 Twins questions. Ha! Just realized the perfect number for this pod. Isn't that great?

How will Lopez affect the rest of the pitching staff and pitching development. Also, should the Twins go after 2021 batting champ in free agency, even though his age seems like a red flag. Plus, we will be breaking down a controversial article that came out on Twins Daily.

It hurts to see Luis go. But it had to be done, looking at other examples. We will also talk about the Michael A. Taylor depth move.

Here's my breakout picks... and one to trade for...

Correa stunned the world. What should we do next.

Correa is officially a Twin! Let's talk about his press conference.  Also, there are some rumors going around about a Lopez and Arraez trade. My thoughts?

I really cannot contain my excitement. The front office strategy actually worked lol. No clue how that happened, but C4, you are a MN Twin for life.

The Correa Saga continues. What to make of that. I really don't know. But I will try to figure it out in this episode. What do I think the Twins will look like next season. We'll talk about that, too. Should the Twins sign Wacha. No.

Correa will probably need to be replaced by trade or Lewis this offseason. There are some candidates to replace him, though. Their prices might be steep, but they would provide some value.

The Yankees really want a left-handed corner bat. Would they be willing to give up Torres, who is clogging the spot up for rising prospects??

These Twins have some depth. These rankings prove it. Kinda falls off a cliff from 13+ though. Also, about 30 more players left to rank after.

Gallo to the Twins. Interesting. You know what else is? Zac Gallen. Trade for him Twins!

Correa is gone. What will this mean next? I don't know. I just guess we'll roll with it.

Two big deals!! Arraez could be traded??? Plus, Joe gives his most important players, 6-10. (Joe forgot to give them grades. Will do in next episode!!)

DeGrom to the Rangers!! What's going on in Texas?? Also in this episode Joe discusses Bryan Reynold's trade request, plus we will end up ranking every player that appeared for the Twins in 2022 and in this episode we do 1-5.

MLB Ownership is not what you think. The Twins owner is richer than the Angels, Dodgers, Cubs, and many other high-paying teams. In this episode Joe breaks down this and more!

C4 is gonna get paid. Most Twins fans are begging for the Twins to resign Correa. Your host Joe, breaks down five reasons the Twins SHOULDN'T sign Carlos. DISCLAIMER: I hope the Twins resign him.

In this edition of 18, Joe looks over all of the Top 10 Twins prospects according to TwinsDaily.com. He also gives a surprising trade proposal involving Jorge Polanco and the ... Orioles??

The SP free agent market has some underlying value.  Who the Twins should or shouldn't sign will be hard to navigate. Thankfully we have our host Joe here to help provide some guidance (ignore the egotism).

Maeda and Ober are both starters with short leashes. Would they have a spot in the Twins bullpen?
