This guide provides a comprehensive look at the Minnesota Twins’ 2023-2024 offseason schedule, including key
dates for the Winter Meetings, the MLB Draft Lottery, and the dates on which the Twins must make important
decisions on arbitration-eligible players and players with team or mutual contract options. The next paragraphs
contain a list of pending free agents, players with contract options, and a detailed timeline for the MLB offseason.
The Twins had an excellent season in 2023. The Twins had their biggest single-game and series victories in 19 and 21
years, respectively. After a long 2023 offseason of hoping for an ace, Pablo Lopez may have emerged as one. This
club would have failed without the contributions of youngsters Royce Lewis, Edouard Julien, and Matt Wallner, as
well as career resurgences from Willi Castro, Ryan Jeffers, and Max Kepler. For much of the season, this team was on
the verge of a.500 record.
And it appeared that they had no chance of doing anything noteworthy in the playoffs, assuming they even advanced.
After the All-Star break, things began to click. The excellent starting pitching that had carried the squad all year
remained intact, and the bats began to heat up significantly.
There are areas for improvement in the future, but the 2023 season was a strong start. Whatever grudges you may
have against this squad, 2023 was unquestionably a success, and much of the framework for this team to make a run
in future years remains in place. The streak has finally ended, and we can look forward to the future rather than
bemoaning the past. Let’s take a look at some specific dates and events to see how they can and will effect the Twins
over the long winter break. Enjoy!
