Through all of this, plus Sonny Gray exiting via free agency, Twins starters still fini...17935Mon, 17 Mar 2025 13:05:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/minnesota-twins-2025-opening-day-roster-projection-post-royce-lewis-injury-edition-r17936/Projecting 26-man rosters is a thankless practice. What looks like a sound prediction one day can be proven moot by a twinge or a sproing the next. Regardless, we here at Twins Daily persevere.

From Bert Blyleven to Jim Kaat and even the steady presence of Brad Radke, the franchise has seen plenty of talent take the mound.

Both young infielders struggled in 2024 but still hold plenty of potential heading into the 2025 season. While neither has completely separated himself in the competition, Ro...17925Sun, 16 Mar 2025 11:20:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/why-a-fast-start-is-crucial-for-three-twins-hitters-in-2025-r17919/Spring training is nearing its conclusion, and the Minnesota Twins are ready to embark on another season filled with high expectations.

A team that once played the towering Miguel Sanó has seemingly taken a different approach quite different from much of the league, where first basemen like Freddie Freeman and Matt Olson (both 6’5”)...17929Sat, 15 Mar 2025 14:34:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/get-to-know-jeferson-morales-r17930/Jeferson Morales is a name to keep an eye on this spring, as he’s seen a steady uptick in playing time and has outlasted several rounds of roster cuts so far as Opening Day approaches. He won’t break camp with the team and isn’t on any top prospect lists, but it’s worth learning his name now, as...17930Fri, 14 Mar 2025 22:22:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/harrison-bader-might-have-a-role-in-right-field-after-all-r17924/  This Wednesday, manager Rocco Baldelli constructed a unique lineup, in what was otherwise a conventional Grapefruit League exhibition game between the Minnesota Twins and Boston Red Sox.

In fact, they've been downright slow. External additions have been few and underwhelming.
