Projected Twins lineup

Danny Santana, SS

2014: .319, 20 SB, 40 RBI.

The Twins found their leadoff hitter after he was summoned from the minors and ended up filling a gaping hole in center field.

Brian Dozier, 2B

2014: .242, 23 HR, 71 RBI.

Surprising power — 41 homers and 66 doubles in the past two seasons — for someone who never had reached 10 home runs in the minor leagues.

Joe Mauer, 1B

2014: .277, 4 HR, 55 RBI.

The three-time batting champion had his career-low batting average and struck out a career-high 96 times.

Torii Hunter, RF

2014: .286, 17 HR, 83 RBI with Detroit.

The veteran turns 40 this summer, returning to the Twins as a free agent after leaving seven years ago.

Kennys Vargas, DH

2014: .272, 9 HR, 38 RBI.

The Twins might have found some much-needed power after the switch-hitter was called up Aug. 1.

Trevor Plouffe, 3B

2014: .258, 14 HR, 80 RBI.

Led the Twins in RBI and doubles (40); his season ended four games early when he fractured his left forearm.

Oswaldo Arcia, LF

2014: .231, 20 HR, 57 RBI.

A subpar spring from the young slugger could result in veteran Eduardo Escobar getting at least platoon time in left field.

Kurt Suzuki, C

2014: .288, 3 HR, 61 RBI.

A free-agent acquisition who earned a spot on the All-Star team and solidified Twins catching.

Jordan Schafer, CF

2014: .238, 1 HR, 15 RBI.with Atlanta, Twins

He will get the first chance to start in center, although Shane Robinson could be a platoon option.
