After the season, Nick Blackburn, who had been with the organization since signing after the 2001 draft, was allowed to become a free agent. As the Twins have ad...2189Tue, 26 Nov 2013 06:21:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/hangout-and-talk-twins-pioneer-press-mike-berardino-r2188/2188Tue, 26 Nov 2013 04:50:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/in-the-path-that-brian-dozier-blazed-a-2014-breakout-candidate-for-the-twins-r2187/I think that it is fair to say that Brian Dozier's 2013 season (especially his power numbers) was not expected by many, based on his fairly disappointing 2012 rookie season and his fairly flat minor league career. But was there anything is his path through the minors that could have acted as a...2187Tue, 26 Nov 2013 04:47:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/codys-2014-minnesota-twins-top-prospects-11-20-r2186/One of the benefits of being a bad team for multiple seasons is the Twins have been able to replenish their farm system with high draft picks the last two years. Add these players into a group that already included some top-notch talent and the future of the Twins organization continues to look brig...2186Mon, 25 Nov 2013 13:33:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-chasing-top-catcher-jarrod-saltalmacchia-r2184/In his Sunday notes column, Boston Globe sportswriter Nick Cafardo mentioned that the Minnesota Twins continue to be pursuing catchers to replace Joe Mauer. And not just any catcher - the top remaining free agent catcher: As mentioned above, Saltalamacchia is a 28-year-old switch-hitting catcher who...2184Sun, 24 Nov 2013 16:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/should-twins-offer-bronson-arroyo-a-third-year-r2183/In the heat of the chase, it's easy to lose your head. Auctioneers know the trick is to just get people in the door. Once that happens, the investment, the competition, the excitement and above all the urgency, take care of the price all by themselves. And free agency is an auction. And Twins fans...2183Fri, 22 Nov 2013 14:17:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-starting-pitching-trade-targets-r2181/Yesterday, I started to delve into starting pitchers who I want the Twins to target in potential trades.

We've seen them connected to a few different pitchers and catchers in free agency, but like many other teams, they have been slow to act here in November. That's not unexpected; with the market going through a signif...2180Wed, 20 Nov 2013 05:41:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-prospect-eddie-rosario-tested-positive-for-banned-substance-r2178/Reports from Puerto Rico suggest that Twins prospect Eddie Rosario has tested positive for a banned substance and could cost him a 50-game suspension in 2014. While the reports are still unconfirmed, according to an article in Sport LivePR from November 18, Rosario had informed his winter league tea...2178Tue, 19 Nov 2013 18:04:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/gleeman-and-the-geek-episode-120-moving-mauer-and-wedding-balls-r2175/Aaron and John talk about Joe Mauer moving from catcher to first base, being sponsored by another Twins podcast, the Twins' odds of actually signing Ricky Nolasco or another big-money free agent pitcher, recapping Dave Chappelle's marathon show at First Avenue, Jason Bartlett rejoining the Twins,...2175Sun, 17 Nov 2013 19:34:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-making-a-ampquotstrong-pushampquot-for-nolasco-r2173/Employment is not difficult to find if you are a moderately successfully and young starting pitcher in major league baseball.

As discussed earlier this week, the solution might be in-house, but that's far from guaranteed. The timing of the announcement regard...2172Thu, 14 Nov 2013 19:04:00 +0000
