When Rick Aguilera was traded midway through the 1989 season he was hoping to remain a starter, which he was until the end of the year.  That changed in 1990 when he was named the team closer, a move that benefited both Aguilera and the Twins.

A 20 Game winner in 1977, Dave Goltz would win another 76 Games over his career as a Minnesota Twin.  Goltz would have two seasons where he finished in the top five in bWAR for Pitchers and had a sixth-place finish in Cy Young voting in ‘77.  

Goltz had a Twins record of 96-79 with an ERA of 3.48.

Heinie Manush was one of the most successful hitters in baseball in terms of Batting Average, as he retired with a .330 BA.  Manush was with the Senators for six years, and while we did not win a Batting Title as a Sen, he did finish in the top five three times while playing in the Capital.  Manush would however lead the AL in Hits and Triples in 1933, the season he would help take Washington to the American League Pennant.  He would finish third in MVP voting that year and also do so the season before.

Spending his entire professional baseball career with the Washington Senators, Buddy Lewis looked liked he was primed for greatness.  A hitting machine, Lewis had six straight 160 plus Hit seasons by the age of 24, and was only behind only Ty Cobb in the statistic of Hits by a similar age.
