Three weeks from now the bottom is going to drop out and you’re going to be faced with five months of winter and six months without baseball. Plus the good lord has smiled on us with 70-degrees-and-sunny weather and the baseball gods have smiled on us...3085Mon, 22 Sep 2014 01:11:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/twins-shut-down-glen-perkins-r3082/On Friday night, the Twins announced that All-Star closer Glen Perkins will not pitch again during the 2014 season due to a left forearm strain and nerve irritation. He will also not pitch during MLB's tour in Japan. According to FSN's Tyler Mason, Twins Doctor John Steubs said that Perkins' ulna...3082Fri, 19 Sep 2014 23:49:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/where-does-pelfrey-fit-in-r3081/His name invariably elicits a visceral response from Twins fans. When talking about how the 2015 pitching staff will shake out, nobody seems to like hearing him brought up. Well, like it or not (and in most cases the answer is "not"), Mike Pelfrey was signed to a two-year deal during the offseason...3081Fri, 19 Sep 2014 14:50:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/how-can-the-twins-prevent-runs-r3079/"To win the game, you've gotta score more runs than the other team"--- Ricky Henderson, baseball's all-time runs leader Or prevent fewer runs than the other team.

Unfortunately, there have probably been more bad than good. On the positive side of things, Phil Hughes has put together the best season of his professional career, Danny Santana has done some good things as a rookie, and the duo of Ken...3075Wed, 17 Sep 2014 19:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/what-is-going-on-with-glen-r3077/For most of 2014 it was business as usual for Minnesota Twins closer Glen Perkins. His numbers have been very similar to his previous two seasons. Yes, there were subtle changes -- like he has struck out batters at a slightly lower rate (declined from 32% to 26%) and he also shaved off free passes...3077Wed, 17 Sep 2014 05:10:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/the-real-brian-dozier-r3076/It's a statistic that you've probably heard recently: Prior to the All-Star break, Twins second baseman Brian Dozier piled up 18 home runs, leading to an appearance in the Derby at Target Field. Since then, he has hit a total of two. For some, this is a worrisome development, indicative that perha...3076Wed, 17 Sep 2014 02:25:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/the-no-juice-podcast-episode-21-vegas-of-the-upper-midwest-r3073/In this week's No Juice Podcast episode, Dan Anderson and Parker Hageman discuss the improvement of Trevor May, what Doug Mientkiewicz might bring to the table as a manager and the struggles of top prospects.
