Order Your TwinsCentric Offseason GM Handbook

The Twins' front office faces an exceedingly difficult task this offseason as they try to pick up the pieces from a disastrous 99-loss season and put the franchise back on the path to contention.

How much money will they have to work with? Who's available on the free agent market at areas of need? Which players might be available in trade? How will arbitration shake out? How much might it cost to bring back internal free agents like Michael Cuddyer, Jason Kubel and Joe Nathan?

We answer all these questions, and more, in the latest edition of the TwinsCentric Offseason GM Handbook, a comprehensive e-book guide to the Hot Stove League geared specifically toward Twins fans. We provide all the information you need to step into the general manager's shoes and craft your own offseason blueprint within a realistic budget.

You can order your copy of the 136-page e-book now for 9.99 and receive it immediately. The GM Handbook is a must-own for hardcore Twins fans eager to follow the crucial action in these coming months. Just click the button below to secure your copy:

Maple Street Press Twins Annual 2011 is HERE!

On 2/17, pitchers and catchers begin their first workout AND the 2011 Maple Street Press Twins Annual ships, hopefully to you. There’s a good chance you’ll have it before Jim Thome has a bat in his hands.

At first, it looks like a 128-page magazine previewing the baseball season. But unlike anything else you’re buying, it isn’t half ads. In fact, it doesn’t have any ads. It also isn’t a preview of every team in the league. It’s JUST the Twins. It is like nothing else you have ever read in its breadth and depth of coverage of your favorite team.

That’s one reason we're so proud of it. Nobody else dares risk something like this. This is our chance to show that a product like this, created for Twins fanatics, can work. Needless to say, if you’re a regular reader of TwinsCentric, this magazine is your payoff.

And like our Star-Tribune blog, it’s a product of TwinsCentric. Nick, Parker, Seth and I helped arrange and edit its 19 feature-length stories and player profiles. But unlike our other products, this is old-school: a collectible with paper and great pictures, available on your magazine rack in March.

But who wants to wait until March? Not you. All offseason you’ve been talking about how winter can’t end soon enough. Here’s a chance to put your money where your mouth is. Enjoy your early spring.
