A lowly affair: ranking the Twins
Star Tribune staff writer Phil Miller takes a swing at what the Twins lineup could look like, with Baseball America's position ranking for fantasy baseball among major leaguers. Below is player with his Baseball America rank and a comment:
Alex Presley, CF
Rank: 99
One stolen base in his last seven attempts, so Twins will want improvement on bases.
Brian Dozier, 2B
Rank: 13
If he repeats 18 HR season, Twins can live with strikeouts.
Joe Mauer, 1B
Rank: 7 (at catcher)
Gets on base more than 40 percent of time in five of last six seasons.
Josh Willingham, DH
