For more than three decades, Roy Smalley has been on televisions throughout the Twin Cities — first as a player, one who played for 10 seasons with Twins, and then as a broadcaster and analyst.

Smalley had a 13-year playing career, most of which came in Minnesota.

The Minnesota Twins have had a quiet offseason. However, the Twins just swooped in and signed a top-50 international prospect.

The Twins still have yet to make major changes to their roster this offseason, but they've been busy plenty busy reshaping the leadership of the organization off the field. It started with the departure of general manager Thad Levine in October. The next month, the Twins announced that longtime president and CEO Dave St. Peter would step into an advisory role and president of baseball operations Derek Falvey would take over as president of the team in early 2025.

The New York Mets have made key additions to their rotation this winter. The signings of Clay Holmes and Frankie Montas could push one of their starters from 2024 out of the mix. José Quintana remains unsigned and the Mets may not be interested in bringing him back. "The Twins do not have much in the way of financial flexibility, but they could still prioritize adding another veteran, and left-hander José Quintana would bring some balance to a staff of right-handers," wrote Reuter.

The newest member of the Minnesota Twins is Armando Alvarez. Alvarez, 30, has spent the past eight years playing almost entirely in the minor leagues for the New York Yankees, San Francisco Giants and Oakland Athletics. It wasn't until last season that he finally broke through for a cup of coffee in the major leagues. In 16 games with the A's last season, Alvarez totaled 39 plate appearances and posted a batter's line of .243/.282/.270 with zero homers, one double, two RBIs and nine runs.

The Minnesota Twins haven't been terribly active this winter, even after an 82-80 season saw them finish in fourth place in the AL Central. While signing Alvarez isn't a huge addition, it does help the Twins bring up their depth just a touch, with the 30-year-old hitting well across 75 games with the A's in Triple-A, batting .315 with a .407 OBP and 15 home runs.
