They aren't rebuilding in the traditional sense, but they also aren't loaded with enough established talent to be considered a clear contender. Instead, they've spent much of the year hovering around t...21028Tue, 25 Aug 2026 23:04:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-baseball-gods-have-not-been-kind-to-andrew-morris-lately-r21022/As a rookie, Andrew Morris has turned into an anchor of the Twins’ bullpen. After entering the season as a starter with the St. Paul Saints, he transitioned to a relief role in the majors and quickly established himself as a reliable option. In 60 1/3 innings this season, Morris has posted a 3.4...21022Tue, 25 Aug 2026 20:09:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-twins-collection-of-lefty-bats-has-reached-the-breaking-point-r21019/  The Twins should be in the news with several other teams who are calling up top prospects for the playoff push. Instead, the Twins don’t have room—or at least, don’t want to make room—on the MLB roster for Walker Jenkins. Intentionally or not, the front office has spent over a year settin...21019Tue, 25 Aug 2026 17:12:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/crack-n-clank-luke-keaschall-and-the-glorious-history-of-good-little-hitters-who-suck-at-defense-r21025/Since the moment Luke Keaschall arrived in the majors, fans have wanted him to be a star. He can really, really hit, and everyone loves a guy who can really, really hit. Keaschall also happens to be handsome and proudly scrappy, using the Rocky theme as his walkup music and hustling for doubles...21025Tue, 25 Aug 2026 11:35:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-9-athletics-6-twins-build-big-lead-hold-on-for-much-needed-win-r21024/Box Score SP: Zebby Matthews 7 IP, 6 H, 1 ER, 7 K, 1 BB (105 pitches, 70 strikes) HR: Ryan Kreidler (6) Top 3 WPA: Matthews 0.21, Bell 0.13, Kreidler 0.11 Win Probability Chart (via FanGraphs):   After being swept by the San Diego Padres over the weekend, Minnesota saw its playoff...21024Tue, 25 Aug 2026 05:08:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-twins-cant-afford-to-wait-on-byron-buxton-anymore-r21018/Byron Buxton was one of the biggest reasons for the Twins' success in the first half of the season. He earned his third career All-Star selection and entered the break leading Minnesota with a .904 OPS, 25 home runs and 3.0 fWAR. Since then, however, everything has changed. Buxton has been one o...21018Mon, 24 Aug 2026 16:03:04 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/an-extreme-approach-has-caught-up-to-trevor-larnach-in-ugly-fashion-r21017/Hitting, in 2026, is all about conviction. Conviction, in turn, is about confidence. Sometimes, it even needs to be about arrogance. Trevor Larnach has always been a hitter defined by extremes, and taking hitting to extremes means walking that tightrope of braided confidence and arrogance across...21017Mon, 24 Aug 2026 11:30:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/week-in-review-wild-card-whiplash-r21015/The Weekly Nutshell: The Twins entered this past week coming off perhaps their worst series of the entire season — a demoralizing sweep at the hands of the Phillies that left Minnesota on the ropes, five games below .500 with six weeks remaining. Once again, the Twins put themselves in a tough...21015Mon, 24 Aug 2026 01:01:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/padres-8-twins-1-nando-goes-nanners-padres-sweep-twins-r21014/Box Score: Starting Pitcher: Bailey Ober: 5 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 3 BB, 3 K (87 Pitches, 54 Strikes, 62%) Home Runs: Brooks Lee (20) Bottom 3 WPA: Jeff Hoffman (-0.32), Josh Bell (-0.09), Victor Caratini (-0.07) Win Probability Chart (Via BaseballSavant): Last week, I described Sunday's...21014Sun, 23 Aug 2026 22:43:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/san-diego-provides-the-selling-blueprint-for-the-pohlads-r21007/The Minnesota Twins have already been down this road once. The Pohlad family explored a sale of the franchise before ultimately deciding to maintain majority control and bring new limited partners into the ownership group. That decision didn't necessarily close the door on a future sale.
