Offensively, he's set career highs across the board, including 26 home runs, seven triples and 76 RBIs. Among players who primarily play second base, only Brandon Lowe has more homers. Perhaps most notably, Clemens has finally established...21214Wed, 23 Sep 2026 14:40:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/twins-3-giants-2-taj-bradleys-200th-strikeout-young-core-spark-twins-to-victory-r21212/Box Score SP: Taj Bradley 6.0 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 3 BB, 6 K (104 pitches, 67 strikes (64%)) Home Runs: Walker Jenkins (4) Top 3 WPA: Bradley (0.20), Luke Keaschall (0.18), Andrew Morris (0.14) Win Probability Chart (via FanGraphs)  There have been fewer bright spots than fans hoped...21212Wed, 23 Sep 2026 04:32:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/luke-keaschall-and-the-art-of-the-hit-by-pitch-r21209/Getting hit by a pitch isn't something a hitter wants to become known for. For Luke Keaschall, however, it's becoming an important part of the package. The Twins' second-year player has spent much of his baseball career finding his way onto first base the hard way. That trend has continued in th...21209Tue, 22 Sep 2026 22:06:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/meet-sparkle-emmanuel-rodr%C3%ADguezs-unique-swing-is-great-but-what-happens-afterward-is-better-r21206/Nobody who arrives in the major leagues wants to be called 'adorable'. That's a word you use for a puppy or a kid. It's good for scarves and craft projects. It fits a brawny young athlete like a mid-2000s NBA draftee's suit. These guys are tenacious and resilient. They're competitive. They're of...21206Tue, 22 Sep 2026 15:38:17 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/re-grading-the-twins-2026-trade-deadline-moves-r21203/Leading up to the 2026 trade deadline, there was plenty of speculation about what the Twins would do. Ultimately, they wound up being buyers, adding four arms to the pitching staff in an effort to make a playoff push. Unfortunately, the Twins fell short and were eliminated over the weekend. But...21203Tue, 22 Sep 2026 13:26:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/if-the-twins-keep-royce-lewis-where-should-he-play-r21196/The Twins have spent much of the 2026 season trying to figure out where Royce Lewis fits. Lewis has spent most of his big-league career at third base, but the Twins have increasingly experimented with him at other positions. He's seen time at second base and first base, and the organization has...21196Tue, 22 Sep 2026 11:37:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/giants-5-twins-2-aaron-sabato-debuts-but-zebby-matthews-stumbled-r21205/Box Score SP: Zebby Matthews 5 IP, 8 H, 5 ER, 0 BB, 9 K HR: Brooks Lee (24), Emmanuel Rodríguez (2) Bottom 3 WPA: Matthews -0.27, Ryan Jeffers -0.06, Luke Keaschall -0.05 Win Probability Chart (via FanGraphs): The Twins aren't playing for much these days.

The AL Central was more than winnable this year. But here we are, on track for another sub-.500 season. The vibe is much different, however, with top prospects Kaelen Culpepper, Walker Jenkins, and Emmanuel Rodríguez finally with the parent club, looking to gui...21199Mon, 21 Sep 2026 22:04:04 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/should-the-twins-bring-back-josh-bell-for-2027-r21192/Josh Bell has provided the Minnesota Twins with a steady presence in the middle of their lineup throughout the 2026 season, but with the offseason approaching, the organization will have to decide whether he's done enough to earn another year in Minnesota. He's been a solid hitter, slashing .254...21192Mon, 21 Sep 2026 17:05:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/breaking-twins-calling-up-former-first-round-pick-aaron-sabato-r21195/It's been a long journey for Aaron Sabato. There were probably plenty of moments over the last six years when the former first-round pick wondered if this day would ever come. Now, after grinding through the minor leagues and putting together the best season of his professional career, Sabato is...21195Mon, 21 Sep 2026 14:16:10 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/cole-sands-and-kody-funderburk-each-have-a-problem-heading-into-2027-r21198/The Twins have to find better answers in the bullpen next season than they found this year, and that process starts now. There are some names that feel like they're written in pen for next year, including Yoendrys Gómez, Andrew Morris and Jeff Hoffman. Others appear likely to move on, including...21198Mon, 21 Sep 2026 14:07:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/week-in-review-walkers-awakening-r21197/The Weekly Nutshell: We've reached a point in the season where the game outcomes don't really matter. In fact, given the draft order implications, you can very well argue that losing is now more valuable than winning for the Twins. From that perspective, this was a fairly successful week: they...21197Mon, 21 Sep 2026 01:04:00 +0000
