What is going to take place this year remains entirely unpredictable, and it’s a good assumption it will be unlike many deadlines of the past. If Minnesota is going to dip their toes into the starting pitching market thou...9766Wed, 26 Aug 2020 01:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/bringing-order-into-the-chaos-that-is-the-twins-rotation-r9764/Injuries have wreaked havoc on Minnesota’s rotation, as Rich Hill, Jake Odorizzi, and Homer Bailey have all spent time on the IL so far. The Twins aren’t unique in this respect, as injuries have been prevalent throughout baseball, but let’s take a look at how the rotation could shake out for the r...9764Wed, 26 Aug 2020 00:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/twins-notebook-825-minnesota-twins-seek-revenge-on-not-justin-bieber-r9767/The Twins will look to build upon Monday night’s victory over the Cleveland Indians with another matchup against their division rivals. This time, though, the Twins will face much stiffer competition as team ace, and Cy Young front runner will take the mound for the Tribe.

His recent trip to the injured list means the Twins have called up top catching prospect Ryan Jeffers. He has less than 100 plate...9762Tue, 25 Aug 2020 02:30:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/min-3-cle-2-bullpen-bends-does-not-break-r9765/The Twins relief corps was in a tough spot after Sunday’s bullpen game, but they came right back to hold a lead over the final four innings Monday night. Caleb Thielbar, Trevor May, Sergio Romo and Taylor Rogers combined to give up seven hits, but executed when they had to, surrendering just one r...9765Tue, 25 Aug 2020 02:27:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/what39s-eating-taylor-rogers-r9761/It’s been a rough start for the Twins’ erstwhile finisher. After a rapid ascent to the top of the bullpen hierarchy, sometime relief ace Taylor Rogers has been much more hittable in 2020. The issue lies in his release point, but fixing the problem might be much harder than identifying it. Rogers...9761Tue, 25 Aug 2020 00:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/twins-notebook-824-twins-begin-crucial-series-in-cleveland-r9763/Coming off a series victory in Kansas City, the Twins can now put the Royals in their review mirror and look forward to perhaps the most important part of their 2020 schedule. Of the Twins next 23 games, 13 of them come against either the Cleveland Indians or Chicago White Sox.

That season his .355 weighted on-base average was the seventh-highest among qualified shortstops -...9759Mon, 24 Aug 2020 01:20:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/week-in-review-riding-the-roller-coaster-r9758/It was a wild week for the Minnesota Twins, filled with invigorating highs, painful lows, and injury woes. One starting pitcher flirted with a no-no, as others were more of a no-go. The offense showed more glimpses, driven mainly by the Sanó show. (Yes, this is a rhyming roller coaster.)

He will have elongated slumps where he struggles to even put the ball in play, then out of nowhere, he will turn it on and become one of the most feared power hitters in all of baseball. 202...9757Sun, 23 Aug 2020 23:05:00 +0000
