Just videotape it, tweet it and copy me in the tweet. For each one, Chrissie and I will donate $50 in memorial of Bev Be...3028Mon, 01 Sep 2014 17:13:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/twins-minor-league-report-831-rochester-eliminated-r3025/The Rochester Red Wings are hanging on to every last shred of their playoff lives. They squeaked out a win on Saturday to remain within two games of the wild card lead. Entering play on Sunday, they have three games remaining but two of them are with the team ahead of them in the standings. This m...3025Mon, 01 Sep 2014 01:29:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/vargas-kennys-keep-it-up-r3019/It seems a little inappropriate to call Kennys Vargas “Little Papi”. According to Baseball Reference he is an inch taller (6’ 5”) and weighs thirty-five pounds more than Mr. Ortiz. One can assume that this comparison has more to do with their skills with a bat than their impressive physical statur...3019Sat, 30 Aug 2014 15:10:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/what-to-make-of-jordan-schafer-r3020/First it was Sam Fuld, now the Minnesota Twins front office has worked its waiver wire magic on Jordan Schafer. On Thursday night, Schafer continued his unexpectedly solid batsmanship against the Royals. In five at-bats, he collected three hits including a double, drove in three, scored another tw...3020Fri, 29 Aug 2014 06:28:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/vikings-journal-top-10-r3017/Here’s the latest Vikings Journal Top 10: 1. ESPN suggests that Teddy Bridgewater is already washed up. Bo Mitchell brings some sanity to the party. 2. Should (can) the Vikings trade Christian Ponder to the Rams? 3. Are the Vikings as resistant to analytics as the Twins? 4. Matt Cassel got...3017Thu, 28 Aug 2014 11:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/only-one-spot-to-address-for-2015-r3014/At a glance, the title of this article might seem a little outrageous. How could one suggest that a team on track for 90 losses needs so little retooling? Well, when you look at the lineup that the Twins fielded on Tuesday night -- one which is very similar to those they've been trotting out regul...3014Wed, 27 Aug 2014 01:55:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/twins-in-arizona-r3013/On Thursday afternoon, MLB announced its 2014 Arizona Fall League rosters. Six Minnesota Twins were announced as members of the Salt River Rafters, including a couple of their top prospects. According to Dustin Morse, the Twins will add an additional pitcher. The season will open on October 7. The...3013Tue, 26 Aug 2014 20:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/trevor-plouffe-third-base-or-utility-role-r3010/Trevor Plouffe has been the Twins third baseman since the middle of 2012. He is the Twins' longest-serving starter at his current position on the team. That is a bit hard to believe, but every position has turned over since the Twins handed Plouffe third base out of desperation. Plouffe responded...3010Tue, 26 Aug 2014 12:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/the-no-juice-podcast-episode-18-touch-39em-all-crawl-recap-r3009/On this week's episode of The No Juice Podcast, Dan Anderson and Parker Hageman wake up super early after spending the day helping everyone enjoy the Twins Daily's Touch 'Em All Pub Crawl.

Pinto provided the offense they desired during his stay in Minnesota, posting an above-average .730 OPS with some pop and solid discipline. Despite his success at the plate, he was...3008Mon, 25 Aug 2014 05:14:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/gleeman-and-the-geek-ep-159-what-to-watch-in-september-r3006/Aaron and John podcast live from the Touch Em All Pub Crawl sponsored by Maestro Dobel Tequila and Three Olives Vodka and speak with a variety of guests about the revival of the Twins offense and hear stories about AJ Pierzynski.
