Twins Pitching Strength and Position Shuffles Highlight 1967 Outlook
The Twins boast strong starting rotation led by Jim Kaat Dave Boswell Mudcat Grant and Add Dean Chance with Jim Perry as fifth starter and a bolstered bullpen through Ron Kline. Harmon Killebrew moves to first base and outfield questions center on Cesar Tovar while Tony Oliva and Bob Allison anchor the lineup. Battey remains catcher though dipping batting average. Bond eyes comeback and bench depth remains thin. Prediction: good but not outstanding in 1967.
