JO Berrios is officially invited to his first big league camp, although he was there with the team when he was working out before the WBC two years ago. Right-handers Tyler Duffey, Mark Hamburger and Adrian Salcedo...3263Fri, 19 Dec 2014 19:07:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/can-aaron-hicks-be-fixed-r3262/The offseason did not start off well for Hicks: In November he was released from his Venezuelan winter ball team after hitting just .220/.381/.280 in 16 games. The explanation from his team was that he was released because of the poor production but there were rumblings from local media that the...3262Fri, 19 Dec 2014 14:40:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/get-to-know-rhp-jr-graham-r3260/The Twins selected the right-hander with the fifth pick in the Rule 5 draft. He was a top prospect with the Braves a couple of years ago, with a fastball that touched triple digits. Shoulder injuries have stalled his progress the last two years, but the Twins scouts who saw him in 2014 liked what...3260Wed, 17 Dec 2014 15:01:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/td-mailbag-center-field-meyer39s-role-and-more-r3259/TD Member Boom Boom: Should the Twins look to bring in a CF, or should they stand pat with Hicks and/or Schafer? I'd be fine rolling with those two. Hopefully Paul Molitor is open to the idea of platooning, because using Hicks against lefties and Schafer against righties would maximize both their...3259Wed, 17 Dec 2014 04:24:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/no-juice-podcast-34-baseball39s-winter-meetings-r3258/NO JUICE PODCAST, EPISODE #34: BASEBALL'S WINTER MEETINGS Other topics from this week's show include more payroll talk and lying to your children during the holidays.

His velocity was down, his command had escaped him and opponents were dropping dingers all over place (he allowed an MLB-high 39 home runs). While with the Angels, manager Mike Scioscia questioned whether Santa...3252Fri, 12 Dec 2014 16:23:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/santana-signing-signals-shifting-mindset-r3251/Let's get this out of the way: I was wrong on this one. Very, very wrong. Comically wrong. I wrote on Wednesday that "I can't see the Twins making a serious play" for Santana, and a tweeted "it ain't happening." Shows what I know. In fairness, this signing doesn't jibe with what Twins officials ha...3251Fri, 12 Dec 2014 05:02:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/report-twins-and-ervin-santana-agree-to-four-year-deal-r3250/Reports from San Diego, including those from Twins beat writers, are saying that it is official this time. Santana has been one of the most durable starting pitchers in baseball through his dozen big league seasons. The Twins were very interested in him one year ago, but he chose a one-year deal w...3250Thu, 11 Dec 2014 19:03:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/torii-hunter-filling-the-attitude-gap-r3231/Not to mention that the particular outfielder added insult, signing with a team within the Twins division two seasons ago, to the 2007 injury of leaving the Twins as a free agent for more money elsewhere. But that is rational thinking. Any person who has followed the Twins should know that this is...3231Thu, 11 Dec 2014 17:20:00 +0000
