They’re 14-20 to start 2025, riding the same sloppy, scoring-deprived wave that wrecked last year’s playoff hopes. Since August 18th of last season, they’ve gone 26-47 – a record that would make even a White Sox fan wince...18248Sun, 04 May 2025 12:12:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/joe-ryan-and-the-best-pitch-in-twins-history-r18236/Last weekend, Joe Ryan unleashed what might be the single most electrifying pitch in Minnesota Twins lore. Clips of the pitch have gone viral on MLB’s platforms and Pitching Ninja’s social feeds, igniting debate over whether hyperbole can actually outpace reality in describing such a masterpiece...18236Sun, 04 May 2025 11:14:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-4-red-sox-3-kody-clemens-rockets-home-run-at-fenway-r18247/Box Score Bailey Ober: 6 IP, 7 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 6 K, 94 pitches, 62 strikes (66.0%) Home Runs: Kody Clemens (1) Top 3 WPA: Bailey Ober 0.231, Jhoan Duran 0.215, Kody Clemens 0.207.

Bailey Ober's velocity is down in 2025. He's generally been a starter who shows his best heat early in seasons—often, even during spring training—but unless he's made a drastic change to favor holding back h...18234Fri, 02 May 2025 15:18:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-daily-hitter-of-the-month-marchapril-2025-r18231/The Twins have started 13-18 in their 2025 campaign, and their offensive struggles are the most to blame for this disappointing start. Minnesota ranks in the bottom third of most major offensive categories, and has averaged just under four runs per game across their first 31 contests. The fact t...18231Fri, 02 May 2025 13:14:35 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/what-led-to-rocco-baldellis-unusual-reliever-usage-in-tuesday-nights-twins-loss-r18232/After a hope-infusing series-opening win Monday night, the Twins lost in walkoff fashion in the second game of their four-game set against the Cleveland Guardians Tuesday.

It's convinced Rocco Baldelli to deploy him more often out of the bullpen than any other Twin this year. But even as his strikeout rate soars, an old weakness has carried over from his days as a sta...18226Thu, 01 May 2025 23:11:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-daily-pitcher-of-the-month-marchapril-2025-r18223/The first month of the baseball season can often be a time when pitcher performance is slightly ahead of hitters'. That was certainly true for the Twins. Minnesota’s pitching staff ended the month ranked in baseball’s top 10 for fWAR, FIP, and ERA.
