While Martin was certainly the headliner of the deal, Simeon Woods Richardson was also a highly-touted, top-100 prospect at the time, and someone about whom the Twins were excited. At the time of his ac...16147Thu, 09 May 2024 12:13:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/make-it-official-twins-6-mariners-3-hits-keep-coming-r16152/Box Score SP: Chris Paddack 5 1/3 IP, 8 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 10 K (99 pitches, 70 strikes, 19 whiffs) Home Runs: Carlos Correa (2), Trevor Larnach (3), Willi Castro (3) Top 3 WPA: Chris Paddack (.154), Willi Castro (.153), Trevor Larnach (.087) Win Probability Chart (via FanGraphs)...16152Thu, 09 May 2024 01:39:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/should-max-kepler-have-stayed-at-third-r16149/For those who didn't see the Twins' 10-6 loss to the Mariners Tuesday night, here's all you need to know to catch up for this particular piece: In the bottom of the eighth inning, on a dribbler to the right side of the diamond, Austin Martin legged out an infield single.
