Arraez .282 in 19 games
Goodrum .282 in 21 games
Meneses (SS who missed a lot of 2017) .328 in 17 games, 13 RBI
Palka .182 in 8 games, 9 K's

Pitching: Not much worth mentioning.

Curtiss, who was a bullpen guy at TX before (SHOCK) the Twins tried him as a starter, has 11 k's in 6.2 AZ league innings.
Finished 2017 at FTM

Already 24; Twins wasted at least 1+ years messing around before putting him back in the bullpen.

I cannot even imagine the Twins losing less than 90 games next season. In fact, imo, that is a best case scenario. No way in hell Brian Dozier hits 42 HR and drives in 99 runs in 2017. When your best starting pitcher (Santana) ends the season with only seven wins with a very respectable 3.38 ERA, you know you have problems. Put the pieces together and even the penultimate optimist cannot find more than 70 victories from this wretched group. And there will have to be a couple of significant additions to the roster to get to 70 wins.

Penultimate Optimist?

Is that the second to last one? The one preceding the final optimist?

I'm thinking something isn't quite right.

He pitched early in the Fall league, then didn't pitch in a game for 3 weeks. Didn't see anything about it.
