The Minnesota Twins are reportedly eyeing another power bat for their lineup.
Jon Heyman of FanRag Sports reported Monday that the Twins are in serious discussions with free agent first baseman and DH Mike Napoli, who spent 2017 with the Texas Rangers.
Twins are in serious talks with Mike Napoli. Merry Christmas. @LaVelleNeal mentioned the interest.

There are indications that the Twins have their sights set on other, bigger targets, but Napoli would be a useful hand to fill out the roster. His best days are definitely behind him, but he still hit 29 home runs for the Rangers in 2017, though he hit just .193. Teams are always looking for a little added punch, though, and Napoli can provide that.
