I&#x2019;m up to #28. 
(Kill me. Or better yet, add on in the comments section.)

Liriano was scheduled to start Sunday's game versus the Cleveland Indians. Brian Duensing will take his turn in the rotation.

The Twins will try to put that road trip behind them and get back on track against the Indians and Josh Tomlin. This is the last full series before the trade...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">688</guid><pubDate>Fri, 27 Jul 2012 20:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Friday Links-N-Thinks</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/friday-links-n-thinks-r689/</link><description>It was a rough week for the Twins in Chicago as the team got swept by one of their biggest rivals in a three game set. Minnesota won't have to wait long to get another shot at the White Sox as Chicago will come to Minnesota at the beginning of next week.  For now, the focus of the club will turn to...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">689</guid><pubDate>Fri, 27 Jul 2012 13:54:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins Daily Trade Deadline Primer</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-daily-trade-deadline-primer-r687/</link><description>The trade deadline is coming up next Tuesday, so this weekend should be an eventful one filled with rumblings and rumors. You'll likely hear a number of different teams connected to the Twins, who are among a handful of clubs around the league that can identify themselves as surefire sellers.

In 247 plate appearances in the left-handed batter&#x2019;s box, he hit .274/.350/.400 &#x2013; not too shabby for a middle infielder. This was a significant improvement for someone who had hit .228/.299/...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">686</guid><pubDate>Fri, 27 Jul 2012 05:09:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Luis Perdomo's Beard Joins The Twins!</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/luis-perdomos-beard-joins-the-twins-r684/</link><description>IT HAS HAPPENED!! LUIS PERDOMO HAS BEEN PROMOTED TO THE MINNESOTA TWINS!!!
Anthony Swarzak went on the 15 day DL with a rotator cuff strain, and Carl Pavano moved to the 60 Day DL to make room for our beloved Adopt-A-Prospect. For those who don't know: Luis Perdomo is a relief pitcher who spent a br...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">684</guid><pubDate>Fri, 27 Jul 2012 01:16:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Houston, We have a Problem</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/houston-we-have-a-problem-r682/</link><description>Since the start of the 2011 season, the Twins have a recordof103-157. Only the Houston Astros have a worse record in that time (90-170).As the trade deadline approaches, it is striking how active the Astros have been in making trades while the Twins have been pretty quiet to this point.

With all that activity, could it be that Terry Ryan has missed his chance to maximize his return on Francisco Liriano?
I don&#x2019;t think so, but I also doubt we&#x2019;ll see a move soon.

Wasting a quality start from Cole De Vries (6 IP, 2 runs, 1 earned), the Twins pen disintegrated, allowing nine runs in three innings pitched with five walks.

San Francisco leads Los Angeles by a game and a half for the NL West lead. As is typically the case, the G-Men have excelled on the mound, ranking fourth in the NL in ERA, while struggling on offense, ranking 11th in runs per game. 
The Dodgers have proven pesky and the Diamondbacks...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">677</guid><pubDate>Wed, 25 Jul 2012 01:13:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins vs White Sox, 07-24-2012, 7:10pm</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-vs-white-sox-07-24-2012-710pm-r674/</link><description>Francisco Liriano had a disappointing night against the Sox last night, giving up seven runs before getting the hook in the third inning.
