2012 OSFM: Minnesota Twins

[moose616]

I have taken over the Minnesota Twins organization, including my hometown Red Wings.

I'm going to be copying SLAB's Tigers thread a little bit, since his is well organized.

THIS SPREADSHEET will provide more details about each player.

Glad to see someone took the Twins over. I did them last year with some help from a few others. Wasn't able to do it this year with work. Good luck, and if you need any help, I may be able to offer some.

Just curious as to why you have Brian Duensing penciled in as being with the Wings?

I put Duesning with the Wings because I had to trim one guy off the 25-man. With the addition of Zumaya, it was at 26. I assume Duensing would be the number six starter. I couldn't see putting Nishioka, Hughes, or Plouffe down in Rochester.

Either way, it's just a preliminary roster. Things change all the time. I welcome any other help you could provide.

Thanks for taking this over this year! I helped cnelly last year and am too busy with work as well.

Duensing is going to back to the bullpen this year and with Zumaya out for the year that should be an easy fix for you.

Trevor Plouffe is moving to the OF this yr as well.

Also, just an FYI you have Joe Benson listed in AAA and AA.

Thanks guys, I very well may need the help. I'm a Rochester native and try to keep up on the Wings as best as possible, but having lived in Denver the past six years has made it difficult.

MauerMorneau, do you want to the equipment or ratings?
