After getting past the speculation and idea that he might return to the rotation in 2025, it was the expectation that he would be a two-headed monster with...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">18136</guid><pubDate>Fri, 18 Apr 2025 19:37:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Why Does It Feel Like We're Living the Same Season Over and Over?</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/why-does-it-feel-like-were-living-the-same-season-over-and-over-r18133/</link><description>It&#x2019;s like Groundhog Day (1993), only instead of waking up over and over to another day of bad weather, it&#x2019;s another season of bad baseball. At the end of last season, all eyes were on the White Sox, but it&#x2019;s the Twins who are battling a 19-39 record since last August. Some things have changed, b...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">18133</guid><pubDate>Fri, 18 Apr 2025 13:15:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>What Should we Expect from Luke Keaschall in the Big Leagues?</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/what-should-we-expect-from-luke-keaschall-in-the-big-leagues-r18137/</link><description>This is one of those moments where it&#x2019;s good to get excited. A homegrown prospect drafted a mere two years ago is making his debut in the majors. That, in itself, is a huge developmental win&#x2014;for the organization, for the player development team, and for Keaschall himself.

The availability of Carlos Correa (wrist) and Willi Castro (oblique) is unknown, after each had to leave games during the Twins' recent series with the Mets.

By May 14th, he owned a .997 OPS with 10 home runs and had carved out a regular spot in the top third of Minnesota&#x2019;s lineup. From the start of 2023 through that date, his .383 wOBA led all MLB cat...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">18124</guid><pubDate>Thu, 17 Apr 2025 15:00:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Minnesota Twins Front Office Attempting to Emulate Highly Rated Counterparts in Cleveland, Tampa Bay</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/minnesota-twins-front-office-attempting-to-emulate-highly-rated-counterparts-in-cleveland-tampa-bay-r18121/</link><description>The Twins front office has always been a puzzle wrapped in a mystery, and&#xA0;the latest rankings from The Athletic only serve to underscore that point. In a trend that might surprise some (but not die-hard Twins fans), the organization slipped from a tie for 8th in last year&#x2019;s assessment to a humbl...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">18121</guid><pubDate>Thu, 17 Apr 2025 13:24:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Here Comes the Bride: Twins Acquire IF Jonah Bride from the Miami Marlins</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/here-comes-the-bride-twins-acquire-if-jonah-bride-from-the-miami-marlins-r18123/</link><description>Who Is John Galt Jonah Bride?
