With Spring Training fast approaching, MLB.com will take a look at a different aspect of this year's Twins squad each day this week. Today's topic: The perfect season.

Projection systems such as Baseball Prospectus' PECOTA provide some optimism for the Twins, projecting 79 wins and a second-place finish in the American League Central, but the long-term success of the organization will be determined by more than wins and losses.
