The Twins managed to check all three of those boxes in this series at Philadelphia. The Twins couldn’t muster any more scoring outside of a leadoff home run while the Phillies hit a two-out, two-run homer and made...7665Sun, 07 Apr 2019 20:03:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/min-6-phi-2-twins-find-power-stroke-slug-3-homers-in-victory-r7663/With Joe Mauer’s retirement, the Twins are lacking a face of the franchise-type player. But if there’s anyone who has an argument to be the leader for that title, it’d have to be Eddie Rosario. Nobody’s been as good for as long in the organization as Rosie. That seems weird to say. Rosario busted...7663Sat, 06 Apr 2019 21:02:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/phi-10-min-4-polanco-cycles-in-the-rain-rest-is-all-pain-r7661/Jorge Polanco became the 11th Twin to hit for the cycle, the first in 10 years, and it only took him four plate appearances to do it. He’s also the first Twins switch-hitter to ever hit for the cycle. That was great to see. The rest of this game … well, the Polanco cycle was great to see. Snapsho...7661Sat, 06 Apr 2019 02:45:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/the-12-stages-of-willians-astudillo-fandom-r7658/What is your level of devotion to the cult hero of the 2019 Minnesota Twins?

This team is good enough to challenge the Cleveland Indians for the AL Central division title, and they’re built to win a postseason series. They aren’t a juggernaut however, and that’s more than OK. Teams like the Tampa Bay Rays an...7657Thu, 04 Apr 2019 22:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/byron-buxton-reckless-or-aggressive-r7655/Minnesota is off to a great start after winning their first two series. Lots of things seem to be working in the Twins favor, but there is a lot of season left to be played. One of the biggest concerns came in Tuesday night’s extra-inning win in Kansas City. Byron Buxton went hurdling into the wal...7655Thu, 04 Apr 2019 01:40:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/min-7-kc-6-twins-come-back-from-3-run-deficit-r7654/The Twins had some ugly moments in their first road series of the season, but you can’t argue with the results. After trailing 6-3 through the first five frames, Minnesota stormed back thanks to big run-scoring hits from Mitch Garver, Max Kepler and Eddie Rosario. The bullpen combined to turn in 4...7654Wed, 03 Apr 2019 20:51:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/gleeman-amp-the-geek-ep-419-tuesday-taproom-tour-from-able-brewery-r7653/Aaron and John talk Twins and watch a 5-4 Twins win with 100+ listeners at Able Brewery.

Seconds after hitting what appeared to be an inning-ending groundout, Nelson Cruz delivered a go-ahead two-out RBI single in the 10th inning. He also had a big two-run double earlier in the game, stepp...7652Wed, 03 Apr 2019 03:48:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/ask-seth-r7651/As I have done a couple of times this year, tonight during the Twins game (and until I sleep), I will answer your questions from the comments below.

Jason Castro caught Jose Berrios on Opening Day. Mitch Garver started the team’s second game. Fan favorite Willians Astudillo starred on Sunday afternoon. Each catcher offers a little something different and it’s hard to know how roo...7650Tue, 02 Apr 2019 02:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/week-in-review-opening-salvos-r7645/Our inclination to inflate the importance of Opening Day is only natural. After a long winter, that date becomes the singular focus of baseball fans everywhere. Opening Day roster, Opening Day lineup, Opening Day outcome. The perceived significance of each is overblown. We all know it. But still,...7645Mon, 01 Apr 2019 00:28:00 +0000
