Minnesota has not fared particularly well against their division rival this season, going 4-6 against them over their first ten matchups. The good news is that the Twins will not...1648Fri, 14 Jun 2013 12:39:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/weekly-links-n-thinks-r1647/After a rough road trip over the last week, the Twins returned home to face a Phillies team with it's own struggles. Minnesota won the first two games of the series but both games were close. The Tigers come to town for Father's Day weekend and this marks the start of nine straight games against AL...1647Fri, 14 Jun 2013 12:26:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-human-fan-condition-twins-versus-phillies-recap-r1645/Run(s) Scored (Twins 3 Phillies 2) Run(s) scored.

Rather than do that with any depth, direction or purpose (which is soooooo not our style), we rapidly blurt out 5 words and pass them off as "analysis" or "humorou...1642Thu, 13 Jun 2013 04:19:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins39-broadcaster-dick-bremer-discusses-advanced-stats-in-the-booth-r1638/With the exception of one seasons in the early 1980s, Dick Bremer’s rich, jovial voice has been the definitive sound of summer for Minnesota Twins fans in the Upper Midwest since 1983. His professionalism, knowledge and ability to entertain a wide audience for many years are the reasons the Minnesot...1638Wed, 12 Jun 2013 05:07:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/series-preview-twins-vs-phillies-611-613-r1634/No matter how bad the 2013 Twins look, at least they're not the Phillies.   Philadelphia, once a perennial contender for the National League pennant, is seeing diminishing returns as they struggle to keep their head above water this season. Mired with the third-highest payroll in the game, Phillies...1634Tue, 11 Jun 2013 12:11:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-center-field-depth-is-tested-r1632/At the end of last season, the Twins had plenty of options in center field. Denard Span and Ben Revere spent most of the year manning the position. Darin Mastroianni made a good fourth outfielder because he could play center field when necessary. Joe Benson and Aaron Hicks were on the 40-man roster...1632Tue, 11 Jun 2013 01:42:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/podcast-sunday-minor-league-report-and-draft-thoughts-r1629/On Sunday night, Twins Daily's draft expert Jeremy Nygaard and myself put together a 35 minute podcast in which we dove into several topics. First, we discussed all that happened in the Twins minor league system on Sunday.

For the big-league club, things are looking rather grim. That was to be expected, however, and fortunately things are considerably brighter down on the farm, which is where fans sho...1627Mon, 10 Jun 2013 04:56:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/message-from-the-king-the-best-eats-in-the-house-r1626/~~~ Sponsored by Ticket King ~~~  Buy me some peanuts and cracker jack.
