The Minnesota Twins have seen their minor league teams this year rate as the top team in many of their affiliate levels. While two affiliates have celebrated championships, Cedar Rapids fell short, falling in the semifinals of the Midwest League.
Cedar Rapids finished with a 75-65 overall record. They clinched a playoff spot with a wild card spot in the first half of the season. Many of the best players that were on that first-half club moved up to Fort Myers, and Cedar Rapids did struggle with consistency, especially in their lineup in the second half.
