DH Chili Davis 1991-1992 After three so-so years in Anaheim, joined Twins, became everyday DH, and revived his career with 29 homers and 93 RBI in Twins' championship season. C Earl Battey 1961-1967 Had trouble keeping his weight down and frequently suffered minor injuries, but four-time All-Star did everything well but run. 1B Harmon Killebrew 1954-1974 Default position because it was his best, but he could also be listed as club's No. 1 third baseman; 549 homers with franchise... oh, and let's not forget his 1,505 walks. 2B Rod Carew 1967-1978 As Twin, played nine seasons at second base and three at first. Greatest bat control of his time; Alan Bannister said, "He's the only guy I know who can go 4-for-3." SS Roy Smalley, Jr. 1976-1982; 1985-1987 From '76 -- when he came from Rangers in trade for Bert Blyleven -- through '80, Smalley's uncle Gene Mauch was also his manager; back problem slowed fine career. 3B Gary Gaetti 1981-1990 Broke in with a bang, taking Charlie Hough deep to become third Twin to homer in first at-bat; hitting stats up and down, but his great glove never slumped. LF Larry Hisle 1973-1977 Remembered as a gimpy slugger, but before he got hurt he was a pretty good athlete who played 502 games in center field; in '76 and '77, knocked in 215 runs. CF Kirby Puckett 1984-1995 Best "bad-ball hitter" of his time, had no plate discipline but led AL in hits four times; six-time Gold Glover with a body and smile that little kids couldn't resist. RF Tony Oliva 1962-1976 Led AL in hits five times, doubles four times, batting average three times, and he was headed for the Hall of Fame until devastating knee injury in '71.4 SP1 Bert Blyleven 1970-1976; 1985-1988 The Dutchman won 149 games in his two stints with Twins, and his big curveball was one of the most impressive pitches of the 1970s. SP2 Jim Kaat 1959-1973 The franchise has existed for more than a century, yet only two pitchers have won more than 150 games: Walter Johnson (417) and Jim Kaat (190). SP3 Frank Viola 1982-1989 For two years, 1987 and '88, he was as good as anybody in the league; won twice in '87 World Series, including Game 7. Ranks fourth on Twins list with 112 wins. SP4 Jim Perry 1963-1972 Gaylord's big brother didn't throw a spitball and he didn't win 300 games, but he was a hell of a pitcher and topped American League with 24 wins in 1970. RP Rick Aguilera 1989-1995; 1996-1999 Spent a few months with Red Sox in '95, but returned in plenty of time for '96; his 254 saves with Twins is more than twice as many as No. 2 man on the list. -- 1901-1956 Washington Nationals (AL) 1957-1960 Washington Senators (AL) 1961-present Minnesota Twins (AL) --
