Sunday&#x2019;s @TwinsDaily survey results surprised me.

The victory also put Minnesota just a game behind Cleveland (at least for the time being) in the AL Central standings...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5865</guid><pubDate>Wed, 19 Jul 2017 20:41:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Bartolo Colon Considering Retirement</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/bartolo-colon-considering-retirement-r5864/</link><description>Could the Big Sexy's stay in a Minnesota Twins uniform last all of two games? According to an ESPN report pitcher Bartolo Colon is mulling over retirement and his next outing may just be the determining factor.

It can be easy to feel that way, with the stable of hopeful minor-league reinforcements sabotaged by injuries, and several planned key contributors &#x2013; such as Ryan Pressly, Matt Belisle and Craig Breslow &#x2013; scuffling through ugly seasons.
But this also ignores the fac...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5863</guid><pubDate>Wed, 19 Jul 2017 04:19:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Yankees 6, Twins 3: Bartolopalooza Ends in Defeat</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/yankees-6-twins-3-bartolopalooza-ends-in-defeat-r5862/</link><description>The Twins have been searching for answers in the rotation all year. From bringing in Ryan Vogelsong for spring training, to giving looks to guys out of the indy leagues and waiver wire claims, the front office has tried to be creative. Bartolo Colon?

Max Kepler fits this mold more than a lot of other young players.
