Justin Masterson, RHP: The Twins often bring in a bounce-back candidate, and Masterson qualifies as such.
Brett Anderson, LHP: He's battled injuries in recent years but has been an above-average pitcher when healthy. And the Twins could use a lefty in the rotation.
Jason Motte, RHP: Once the Cardinals closer, Motte missed 2013 because of Tommy John surgery and is trying to find his old form.
Pat Neshek, RHP: Why not? The local product was an All-Star in 2014 and pitched in the playoffs.
Colby Rasmus, OF: Rasmus will strike out and won't hit for a high average. But he has some power and would be an option in center field.
