One such Twins trade was discussed on a recent episode of Gleeman and the Geek. Entering the 2018 season, the Yankees had too many MLB-caliber players on their 40-man roster and were looking...16278Wed, 29 May 2024 15:07:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/lets-make-a-deal-could-vladimir-guerrero-jr-be-a-trade-target-for-the-minnesota-twins-r16255/Through the first quarter of their season Rocco Baldelli’s club has been consistently inconsistent. That has been evident for multiple players, but veteran free agent addition Carlos Santana is chief among them. While he has been a solid defender at first base, the bat has left plenty to be desi...16255Wed, 29 May 2024 13:12:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/why-is-max-kepler-hitting-well-but-not-hitting-home-runs-r16269/Over 35 games played, Twins right fielder Max Kepler has garnered 131 plate appearances. Due to missing 13 games from a right knee contusion that placed him on the 10-day IL and five rest days, Kepler is not among the team leaders in plate appearances. However, the 31-year-old is among qualified...16269Wed, 29 May 2024 11:45:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/make-it-official-twins-4-kansas-city-2-early-runs-hold-up-r16282/Box Score Starting Pitcher: Simeon Woods Richardson 5.0 IP 3 H 2 R 2 ER 2 BB 4 K (83 pitches 53 strikes 10 whiffs) Home Runs: N/A Top 3 WPA: Griffin Jax 0.120, Byron Buxton 0.105, Josh Staumont 0.095 Win Probability Chart (via FanGraphs) Carlos Correa Crushes Cole Again Cole...16282Wed, 29 May 2024 02:14:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/visualizing-and-quantifying-pitchability-with-simeon-woods-richardson-r16279/  It won't be like this all year. Simeon Woods Richardson is not a true-talent 2.57 ERA pitcher in MLB, and his strong showing since joining the Twins rotation is due for some measure of regression. However, the success he's had isn't unearned. He's made material changes since last season,...16279Tue, 28 May 2024 15:14:46 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/could-max-kepler-receive-a-qualifying-offer-r16260/Max Kepler's OPS is 100 points above the anemic league average, and he’s playing his standard plus defense in right field. Kepler has continued the hot stretch that started in the second half of 2023, and there’s an argument that he should receive an offer from the Twins of over $20 million to p...16260Tue, 28 May 2024 14:18:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-twins-offense-boasts-plenty-of-upside-going-forward-r16274/The biggest concern for the offense heading into this 2024 campaign, as I outlined during the offseason, was the threat of regression coming for three players who were all key contributors to the offense as rookies: Royce Lewis, Matt Wallner and Edouard Julien.

His elite eye at the plate was complemented by enough power to make pitchers pay when he was ahead in the count. So far in 2024, that approach isn’t working, and he’s...16271Mon, 27 May 2024 15:28:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/joe-ryan-emerging-as-the-pitcher-minnesota-needed-r16247/Paying big money for an aging Sonny Gray over multiple years was never something Minnesota would have considered.
