Miguel Sano comes under siege from a local columnist who finds specious reasoning to grind an ax over the young slugger's purported lack of commitment. Patrick Reusse did it last spring, and a week ago Jim Souhan published a similarly toned piece. Are these scribe...6021Sun, 27 Aug 2017 22:33:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/min-7-tor-2-buxton-hits-3-homers-twins-win-series-at-toronto-r6020/Baseball is a team game, but when one player gets on a roll it’s incredible the influence he can have. Byron Buxton has been hot ever since returning from the DL, but Sunday he really busted out. As in out of the park. We’ve seen inside-the-park homers, bunt hits and incredible feats in the field,...6020Sun, 27 Aug 2017 21:39:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/tor-10-min-9-sloppy-8th-inning-costs-twins-in-comeback-effort-r6017/The Twins lineup was incredibly pesky, continually cutting large deficits built by the Blue Jays, but every time they inched back Toronto answered. Max Kepler hit a grand slam and Joe Mauer had another three-hit game, but some sloppy play in the eighth inning led to two Toronto insurance runs that...6017Sat, 26 Aug 2017 20:55:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/min-6-tor-1-buxton-bartolo-get-twins-back-to-winning-ways-r6015/Byron Buxton, wow. Buck had three hits -- two of them on bunts -- drove in a pair of runs, stole a base and made what may have been his finest catch. He also made another great grab that brought a smile to Bartolo Colon’s face, as Big Sexy held the Blue Jays to one run over 6.2 innings.

There is good news and bad news in the Wild Card race. The Good News is that the Twins are currently in possession of that final wild card spot. The bad news is that the entire American League are within strikin...6014Fri, 25 Aug 2017 14:16:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/cws-5-min-1-twins-drop-ugly-game-series-to-white-sox-r6013/It’s a good thing we know this Twins team has the ability to pick itself up off the mat. They mustered very little offense and made some costly defensive mistakes Thursday night as they lost a five-game series 3-2 against the worst team in the American League.

He’s an incredible athlete that has transformed himself into an elite fielder at a new position. While there may be some question as to whether or not a Gol...6011Fri, 25 Aug 2017 02:47:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/a-hall-of-fame-case-for-johan-santana-r6010/Over the weekend, the Minnesota Twins celebrated their Hall of Fame weekend. On Saturday, Michael Cuddyer was inducted, and then Sunda it was Andy MacPhail’s turn. The fun part about the Hall of Fame (baseball’s or the Twins) is the conversation that it can create.
