| | | DETROIT: 2017: 64-98, fifth place.
MANAGER: Ron Gardenhire (first season).
ADDITIONS: OF Leonys Martin, RHP Mike Fiers, LHP Francisco Liriano, OF Victor Reyes.
SUBTRACTIONS: Manager Brad Ausmus, 2B Ian Kinsler, RHP Anibal Sanchez, INF Andrew Romine, RHP Bruce Rondon.
OUTLOOK: The Tigers traded Verlander, Justin Upton and J.D. Martinez last season, then dealt away Kinsler during the offseason. There could be more big moves on the horizon ' Fulmer, Iglesias and Castellanos should all have some trade value, but each of them is young enough that he could be useful to the Tigers when they become competitive again. That's especially true of Fulmer, the 2016 AL Rookie of the Year. Barring a huge surprise in terms of on-field results, the biggest suspense this season might revolve around how general MANAGER Al Avila approaches the next few steps in the rebuild. | | MINNESOTA: 2017: 85-77, second place, lost to Yankees in wild-card game.
MANAGER: Paul Molitor (fourth season).
ADDITIONS: RHP Lance Lynn, RHP Jake Odorizzi, DH-1B Logan Morrison, RHP Fernando Rodney, RHP Addison Reed, LHP Zach Duke, SS-3B Erick Aybar, RHP Michael Pineda.
SUBTRACTIONS: RHP Matt Belisle, RHP Bartolo Colon, C Chris Gimenez, DH-1B Kennys Vargas, LHP Hector Santiago, LHP Glen Perkins, LHP Buddy Boshers, RHP Michael Tonkin.
OUTLOOK: After their massive 26-win turnaround last season, earning Molitor the AL Manager of the Year award and a new contract through the 2020 season, the Twins were already on the upswing with their 25-and-under core of Berrios, Buxton, Sano, Rosario and Kepler. Then, after spring training began, they traded for Odorizzi and signed Morrison and Lynn, all at market-bargain prices. They've already had some setbacks, with finger surgery for Santana expected to keep him out for most or all of April, and the gut-punch news of Polanco's suspension, plus the uncertainty that surrounds Sano. But this is a team, even with the bold offseason moves made by AL heavyweights Boston and New York, and the strength of reigning AL Central champion Cleveland, that has the talent and spunk to be right in the playoff mix. With Hughes and Tyler Duffey on track for long-relief roles and a spate of well-regarded prospects set to fill out the rotation at Triple-A Rochester, this is as much starting pitching depth as the Twins have had in years. After using 16 different starters in 2017, they needed that. Rodney, Reed and Duke were important additions to bolster the bullpen, too, after Minnesota relievers ranked 22nd in the majors with a collective 4.40 ERA. |
| | Tigers manager Gardenhire pleased to visit ex-team Twins
Even though a 4-2 loss started Detroit's visit on a sour note, Tigers manager Ron Gardenhire was happy to be back in Minnesota. Gardenhire managed the Twins from 2002 through the 2014 season. Before his 13 years at the helm, he spent the 1987 season as a player in Minnesota's minor league system and then became a minor league coach in the organization. He was added to the big league staff in 1991 and remained the team's third-base coach until he was promoted ahead of the 2002 season. "It was really good to see him today," said Paul Molitor, who played for the Twins from 1996 to 1998 and joined Gardenhire's coaching staff in 2014 before replacing him as manager. "I couldn't be more happy that he has got the opportunity over there with the Tigers. He did so much in this community and for this organization. "Gave me a chance to get back in the big leagues as a coach in 2014. I can tell by seeing some of the reports and watching some of the highlights that these guys are playing really hard for him, which is not unexpected." After Minnesota fired him, Gardenhire spent two seasons out of the game before returning as a coach with the Arizona Diamondbacks last year. "It's always going to be in your history and in your blood," said Gardenhire, who still has a home in the Twin Cities area. "I love this place. This organization showed me as much respect as you could get as a coach, player and manager. "So you know what, I've always loved this place and it'll never go away. But now I have a job to do with my Tigers boys and it's to whip their butts." The Tigers couldn't get it done in the series opener and return for Game 2 of the series having lost four in a row and five of their last six. Left-hander Matthew Boyd gets the start for Detroit and is coming off a steallar performance at Seattle, where he had a career-high nine strikeouts. Boyd (2-3, 3.19 ERA) has six quality starts in eight turns though the rotation already this season along with a team-leading 1.06 WHIP and 41 strikeouts in 48 innings. "Matthew Boyd ain't a secret," Tigers outfielder Nick Castellanos said. "Cat's out of the bag." Things haven't gone nearly as well for Twins starter Lance Lynn. Signed to a one-year contract late in spring training, Lynn has struggled out of the gate for Minnesota and takes the mound Tuesday looking to bounce back after lasting a season-low three innings against his former team, the St. Louis Cardinals. Lynn was charged with three runs, four hits and four walks while striking out five in the Twins' 7-5 loss. He has posted just one victory this season and his team has only won in two of his starts. "He's aware it's been a struggle so far," Molitor said. "Sometimes, subconsciously or consciously, you're trying too hard to get back on track. Pitching against the Cardinals (last Wednesday) was something he was probably looking forward to, but it didn't work out particularly well." |
