The lineage of the greatest player to ever play the game of baseball is one that can be contested, but only a few names are worthy of being discussed. Despite the ridiculous h...7975Fri, 21 Jun 2019 01:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/potential-twins-bullpen-target-sam-dyson-rhp-giants-r7976/It's no secret, the Twins will be seeking bullpen help as the trade deadline approaches. The current group of relievers has helped get the Twins where they are, but let's face it, there is plenty of evidence that suggests upgrades are required. Who may be available? Today we're going to look at a...7976Thu, 20 Jun 2019 20:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/series-preview-twins-look-to-clean-up-in-kc-r7972/After an extended home stand, the Twins head on the road to start a four-game series against a familiar foe-the Kansas City Royals. To put it simply, the Royals are not a good team and they know it. They made little changes to last years squad as they are currently in the early to mid stages of a...7972Thu, 20 Jun 2019 13:30:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/bos-9-min-4-the-red-sox-bats-were-poppen-tonight-r7973/After a seventeen inning struggle the night before, the Minnesota Twins were hoping to take the rubber game of this three-game series against the defending World Series champions. However, that was not meant to be as the Red Sox bats went off for 12 hits while drawing 10 walks off Twins pitching....7973Thu, 20 Jun 2019 03:52:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/taking-a-deeper-dive-into-miguel-sano39s-plate-discipline-r7969/Roughly a week ago the discussion surrounding Miguel Sano was in relation to his strikeouts. Now operating at a 39.2% strikeout rate, the trips back to the dugouts remain inconsequential to me. The issue with his production profile revolves almost entirely on plate discipline. I touched on this in...7969Thu, 20 Jun 2019 01:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/potential-twins-bullpen-target-brad-hand-lhp-indians-r7970/Taylor Rogers is currently the only left-handed pitcher in the Minnesota Twins bullpen. With the coaching staff embracing analytics and matchups, the team would love to add another southpaw to come out of the pen in any given situation. They could add that lefty arm while also taking something awa...7970Wed, 19 Jun 2019 23:30:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/what-version-of-madison-bumgarner-would-the-twins-be-getting-r7964/Over the weekend, reports surfaced about the Twins and Giants discussing a potential deal for Madison Bumgarner. The 29-year old pitcher is set to hit free agency this off-season and the Giants are most likely going to try and get something back for their former World Series star. Most of Twins Te...7964Wed, 19 Jun 2019 16:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/zack-littell-changes-role-changes-mindset-r7968/When Zack Littell returned to Rochester at the start of the month of June, he was told that he should work out of the bullpen. Did he sulk? No. Did he make some alterations? Yes. Over the weekend, we caught up with the Twins right-hander about the changes he has made and why he has shown so much s...7968Wed, 19 Jun 2019 06:55:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/min-4-bos-3-twins-win-in-17th-inning-get-first-walk-off-r7967/For the first time this season the Twins win on a walk-off hit from (who else?) Max Kepler. It was the longest game of the season for both teams tonight and both bullpens were lights out, but one had to blow it. Kepler also hit a game-tying single in the eighth inning and a game-tying homer in the...7967Wed, 19 Jun 2019 06:04:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/potential-twins-bullpen-trade-target-oliver-perez-lhp-cleveland-r7961/It's no secret, the Twins will be seeking bullpen help as the trade deadline approaches.

With the waiver period being removed in 2019, the July 31st deadline is a hard cap on all player acquisition. There’s no denying that the Minnesota Twins need to find some pitching help, and the assum...7965Tue, 18 Jun 2019 22:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/michael-pineda-provides-upgrade-over-recent-fifth-starters-r7960/It was hard to know what to expect from Michael Pineda when the Twins signed him prior to the 2018 season. The front-office knew he would miss all of 2018 after undergoing Tommy John surgery, but there can be some issues with performance in the first year back on the mound. Pineda certainly hasn’t...7960Tue, 18 Jun 2019 16:30:00 +0000
