As we gear up for the 2025 season, the Minnesota Twins have brought in a slew of non-roster invitees that could shake things up in the coming year. With names like Scott Blewett, Randy Dobnak, and the intriguing knuckleballer Cory Lewis, the potential for unexpected contributions is palpable.
Let’s dive into the possibilities:
1. Scott Blewett had a solid showing last season, but can he maintain that momentum? With a 1.77 ERA but a concerning FIP of 4.00, is he a product of good luck or a hidden gem waiting to be polished? What are your thoughts on his chances of making a significant impact in 2025?
2. Randy Dobnak has a compelling backstory, transitioning from Uber driver to major league pitcher. After a rocky few years, can he reclaim his form and become a reliable option in the Twins' rotation? Or is he destined to be a long-relief guy?
3. The Twins have a wealth of young talent, including Luke Keaschall and Yunior Severino. With Keaschall’s versatility and Severino’s power potential, how do you see their roles evolving? Are they the future stars the Twins need, or will they struggle to find their footing in a crowded roster?
4. And what about the veterans like Mike Ford? After a stint in Japan, can he bring back the magic and provide the Twins with a much-needed boost at first base? Or is he just another name in a long list of players who couldn’t quite make it back?
5. Lastly, with the Twins' recent ownership changes, how do you think this will affect their approach to player development and roster decisions? Will we see a more aggressive strategy in securing talent, or will they stick to their current path?
Let’s hear your predictions, insights, and any personal experiences with these players or similar situations in baseball. Who do you think will surprise us in 2025, and who might fall flat? The floor is yours!
