From August 1 through the end of the season, May not only had a 1.38 ERA, but held opponents to a pathetic .125/.181/.273 batting line. He fanned 34 of the 94 batters he faced, and walked just six.

Except a break.
A major-league career that's been characterized by setbacks and shutdowns was on track to open with another one in 2020, as the center fielder had been expected to miss the start of the season, but now fortune has fina...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9536</guid><pubDate>Thu, 09 Jul 2020 01:08:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>How Jose Berrios Used Video To Regain Confidence</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/how-jose-berrios-used-video-to-regain-confidence-r9530/</link><description>Jose Berrios rattled off an exhaustive list of mechanical issues to reporters after a particularly disappointing outing late last year.
He told them he wasn&#x2019;t staying in his heel long enough. He wasn&#x2019;t rotating his chest quick enough. His front shoulder was flying open. It was a lot of cues to thi...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9530</guid><pubDate>Wed, 08 Jul 2020 10:35:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Meanwhile, in St. Paul...</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/meanwhile-in-st-paul-r9534/</link><description>While most of the Twins action and video that we will see in 2020 will come from Target Field, don&#x2019;t forget that there is another group of Twins players working at CHS Field in St. Paul, keeping ready.

The St. Paul Saints are the defending champions of the American Association.

While the effect isn&#x2019;t huge, it is significant enough to provide another edge for the Minnesota Twins.
