The Minnesota Twins will look to be a better version of themselves in 2019 and although they won 101 games, there are things to help the cause in 2020.

As we approach 2020, there are a lot of us that will take time to reflect on the year that was. For the Minnesota Twins, 2019 was a great year overall that saw the team win the American League Central for the first time since the decade began and their 101 wins were the second-highest total in franchise history behind the 1965 team.

But just like we all find improvement no matter how great of a year it was, the Twins are no exception. The Twins’ season came crashing down in October at the hands of the New York Yankees and as they have been relatively quiet in the opening months of free agency, no improvement from the outside is imminent.

The Twins can steps from within to have a better year in 2020, however, and with a couple of tweaks in their philosophy (and some more luck on the injury front), Minnesota can take the next step and maybe even breakthrough in what would be a very happy new year.
