From five straight wins to four straight losses, just like that. In typical fashion, they lost no ground in the AL Central d...14818Sun, 13 Aug 2023 21:56:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/twins-3-phillies-0-twins-silence-the-phillies-to-win-the-series-r14816/Sonny Gray took the mound aiming to duplicate the dominant performance of Pablo Lopez the night before. Gray ended up delivering even more convincingly, and the Twins offense did just enough to sneak out a series win.

Does one game undo the damage Gallo has done to the lineup for the last three months? This winter the Twins “got their guy”, signing Joey Gallo to a one-year $11 million deal. As we...14804Sun, 13 Aug 2023 17:18:15 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/so-because-you-are-lukewarm-and-neither-hot-nor-cold-i-will-spit-you-out-of-my-mouth-r14805/After holding still at the trade deadline, the Twins inspired the kind of Greek Chorus of consternation typically reserved for teams actively spiting their fans.

Despite Julien’s poor defense at second base, and the Twins’ continuously poor offense, the Twins inexplicably refuse to try the rookie at first base.
