The Minnesota Twins, following a busy trade deadline last year that left their pitching staff weakened, now have an excess of viable starters despite spring injuries to Pablo López and David Festa. Joe Ryan and Bailey Ober are secure in their rotation spots, while Simeon Woods Richardson is favored to join them. Taj Bradley, Mick Abel, and Zebby Matthews are competing for the remaining spots, with Abel performing impressively in spring training. Fans are debating who will be left out, with Matthews currently leading in poll votes for exclusion.
