2015 Twins: Who Paces The Lineup?

Last season, the Minnesota Twins were amongst the best in Major League Baseball when it came getting runs across the plate. Unfortunately, they also gave up plenty in a season that led to another 90 losses. If the Twins are going to replicate their offensive success of a season ago, Minnesota will need new players to step up at the plate.

Looking at it from reverse order, here is who we expect to pace the Twins at the plate this season.
