We&#x2019;ve discussed how a modified or shortened season can improve the odds for the underdogs across baseball. That prospect extends beyond just the teams in my opinion. I believe that some individual players stand to...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9227</guid><pubDate>Sat, 11 Apr 2020 23:02:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Does Warming Up with a Heavy Bat in the On-Deck Circle Actually Improve Swing Velocity?</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/does-warming-up-with-a-heavy-bat-in-the-on-deck-circle-actually-improve-swing-velocity-r9204/</link><description>The title of the article really says it all.
This was a question I began pondering after stumbling across a research article published in this month&#x2019;s edition of the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, in which it was determined that warming up with a heavy bat (57-oz.) actually decreas...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9204</guid><pubDate>Sat, 11 Apr 2020 15:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Who Are the Top 5 Starting Pitchers in Minnesota Twins History?</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/who-are-the-top-5-starting-pitchers-in-minnesota-twins-history-r9225/</link><description>The top five Twins hitters in history seem to be fairly straightforward, with a few marginal quibbles. The best starting pitcher debate, however, is riddled with more questions and maybe more heat. How much is a great stretch worth over many years of consistent production? I tried to find a balanc...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9225</guid><pubDate>Sat, 11 Apr 2020 02:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins Flashback: With the National Guard Looking on Chance Shines in Return to Washington (4/10/1968)</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/twins-flashback-with-the-national-guard-looking-on-chance-shines-in-return-to-washington-4101968-r9213/</link><description>The 1968 season opened for the Twins back where it all started, in Washington D.C., with a former Twin facing off against a former Senator. It came a few days later than planned due to social unrest in the nation&#x2019;s capital after the tragic assassination of Martin Luther King Jr., but on April 10th...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9213</guid><pubDate>Sat, 11 Apr 2020 01:30:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>How Would the Twins Fare in the Grapefruit League South?</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/how-would-the-twins-fare-in-the-grapefruit-league-south-r9226/</link><description>The USA Today&#x2019;s Bob Nightengale is reporting that Major League Baseball is considering dropping the National League and American League for the 2020 season. This would allow clubs to play in their spring training sites and have completely new divisions based on geography.

Beyond producing more online bickering content, these lists provide a useful way to compare the quality of prospects across each team&#x2019;s system.

Today, we'll be unpacking a 180-degree turnaround. 
The emergence of Minnesota's bullpen as a top-tier group was one of the 2019 season's most astonishing, and promising, developments.

A week prior, fans from across the world would have gathered hours early at Target Field for the quarter-zip giveaway and raised a hot dog in unison for the home team.

The Twins are now off to a 3-0 start, their best start to a season since 1973.

To continue the discussion of the 1960s Twins, I was fortunate to spend about a little over an hour chatting with WCCOs Dave Mona about the players from the 1960s team.
