On Sunday, the Minnesota Twins took time to recognize one of those moments as Byron Buxton reached 10 years of Major League service time. It's the kind of milestone that speaks less about a single season and more abo...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">20081</guid><pubDate>Tue, 07 Apr 2026 11:50:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins 7, Tigers 3: Keaschall&#x2019;s First Homer Sparks Twins to Much-Needed Win</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-7-tigers-3-keaschalls-first-homer-sparks-twins-to-much-needed-win-r20085/</link><description>Box Score

He hasn't shown enough improvement, and his weaknesses have been fully exposed.

It started during last spring training and never really went away. A hip issue disrupted his mechanics, and for a pitcher listed at 6-foot-9, that matters more than it might for most guys.

Through 16 plate appearances, he's batting .273/.500/.455, with two doubles and five walks.

	In their first full week of the 2026 season, the Twins dropped four of six, and they've now lost all three series they've played. Both in Kansas City and at home, games were played under cold, wet conditions that contributed to sloppy play, but the Twins struggled far more...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">20079</guid><pubDate>Mon, 06 Apr 2026 02:36:47 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Rays 4, Twins 1: Simeon Woods Richardson Dominates, No Other Good Things Happen</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/rays-4-twins-1-simeon-woods-richardson-dominates-no-other-good-things-happen-r20076/</link><description>Box Score:
