(Aaron) Rodgers' arm is strong but it ain't as strong as Trevor Lawrence's anymore,'" Simms said. "Trevor Lawrence's arm went to another level this year. I mean the control of his fastball, that's where it went to another level. He's great...

Using WAR to help us rank them, let's look at the top 24 players in the history of the Minnesota Twins franchise.Walter Johnson 1907-1927 (165.1 WAR) (1 of 24)The...
