It is the 2nd attempt because the 1st attempt didn’t turn out so well. An April snowstorm blew through southern Minnesota and caused the cancellation of 3 of those 4 games. I am Mr. Post Hoc Ergo Proptor Ho...6706Thu, 03 May 2018 11:39:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/the-beginning-of-the-end-for-phil-hughes-r6702/Phil Hughes had to know his leash was short in the Twins rotation. Minnesota’s Triple-A rotation is full of plenty of major league-ready arms. During his last spring training start, Hughes left the game with an oblique injury that seemed very convenient for the Twins front office. Since his return...6702Thu, 03 May 2018 01:34:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/min-4-tor-0-fernandomania33-r6704/Fernando Romero provided a much-needed boost to a slumping Twins team, firing 5 2/3 shutout innings in his Major League debut to set the tone. The bullpen followed suit, combining to hold Toronto to two hits over the final 3 1/3 frames, and the offense scratched across four runs to give the Twins...6704Wed, 02 May 2018 20:03:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/tor-7-min-4-what-is-happening333333-r6701/This is getting hard to believe. The Twins lost another game Tuesday night, and this one was a killer. They jumped out to a 2-0 lead and were even up 4-3 in the eighth, but the bullpen couldn’t hold the lead, the defense was atrocious and the Blue Jays took advantage of miscues in the 10th inning....6701Wed, 02 May 2018 04:09:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/can-fernando-romero-spark-the-twins-r6700/It’s safe to say that the Minnesota Twins have struggled mightily in every facet of the game the last two weeks. They haven’t hit well. They haven’t played good defense. The bullpen has struggled, and the starting pitchers have rarely been able to provide relief to the bullpen with extended starts...6700Wed, 02 May 2018 03:43:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/can-history-repeat-a-hopeful-look-back-to-2006-r6698/The Twins are in bad shape right now. They've lost 11 of their last 12 games and their postseason odds have taken a nosedive. Given the various concerning issues cropping up, it might feel difficult to envision a turnaround that puts this team back on a contending track. But doing so would hardly...6698Wed, 02 May 2018 02:06:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/something-has-clicked-with-eduardo-escobar-r6697/There have not been a lot of good things to say about the Minnesota Twins of late. The team has lost 9 of 10 (entering Tuesday), and it is hard to find much to be positive about here at Twins Daily, deservedly so. So, I think everyone could use a short little break from all the misery and read abo...6697Wed, 02 May 2018 01:45:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/sano-to-dl-petit-promoted-enns-designated-kinley-returned-r6696/There was a flurry of roster activity Tuesday afternoon. The Twins announced that Miguel Sano would be placed on the 10-day disabled list retroactive as of April 28. To take his spot on the roster, Gregorio Petit was promoted from Rochester, but to make room for him on the 40-man roster, Dietrich...6696Tue, 01 May 2018 19:38:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/were-we-possibly-this-wrong-r6695/The Minnesota Twins lost 7-5 to the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday night at Target Field. It was the team's tenth loss in their last 11 games, and it dropped their season record to just 9-16. As the calendar flips from April to May, many Twins fans are likely asking themselves if they could have poss...6695Tue, 01 May 2018 05:11:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/tor-7-min-5-twins-can%E2%80%99t-recover-after-another-poor-start-by-lynn-r6694/Lance Lynn gave up six runs over five innings, but the Twins showed plenty of signs of life in a comeback attempt that ultimately fell short. Max Kepler and Eduardo Escobar continued to carry the team, and it was a solid night for the bullpen, but in the end the Twins fell short in all three aspec...6694Tue, 01 May 2018 03:58:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/gleeman-amp-the-geek-ep-366-from-bad-to-worse-r6691/Aaron and John talk about the Twins' horrible stretch of losses to the Rays, Yankees, and Reds, plus Byron Buxton's health status, the best start of Kyle Gibson's career, Luke Bard and Tyler Kinley losing the Rule 5 gambit, bullpen musical chairs, Mitch Garver vs. Jason Castro, and the ghost of Ro...6691Mon, 30 Apr 2018 13:53:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/game-thread-twins-v-blue-jays-430-710pm-ct-r6689/Tonight the Twins open up a 3-game series with the Blue Jays. The Twins have taken a flurry of punches recently, a lot like Brutus after Popeye downed a can of spinach. I’ve often wondered why Brutus didn’t just eat spinach to neutralize the situation. I’ve also assumed that Wimpy wasn’t paying at...6689Mon, 30 Apr 2018 11:40:00 +0000
