The Minnesota Twins have so many reasons to be optimistic about the upcoming 2021 season. First, with three different COVID-19 vaccines being distributed around the country, there is every reason to believe that there will be fewer work stoppages this season. To add onto that, the curtailing of the pandemic will hopefully bring fans back to the stands.
The second reason for optimism is their association with their new Triple-A affiliate, the Saint Paul Saints.
