Plouffe is unlikely to play in the outfield according to general manger Terry Ryan, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Analysis:

That wouldn't be a problem except Ryan also stated he expects Miguel Sano to play regularly in the field, meaning the Twins could have a logjam at the hot corner. With that said, it seems like Plouffe could be a player to watch this offseason as the Twins might look to move their 29-year-old third baseman if the right deal arises.
