Ultimately, they wound up being buyers, adding four arms to the pitching staff in an effort to make a playoff push. Unfortunately, the Twins fell short and were eliminated over the weekend. But...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">21203</guid><pubDate>Tue, 22 Sep 2026 13:26:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>If the Twins Keep Royce Lewis, Where Should He Play?</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/if-the-twins-keep-royce-lewis-where-should-he-play-r21196/</link><description>The Twins have spent much of the 2026 season trying to figure out where Royce Lewis fits. Lewis has spent most of his big-league career at third base, but the Twins have increasingly experimented with him at other positions. He's seen time at second base and first base, and the organization has...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">21196</guid><pubDate>Tue, 22 Sep 2026 11:37:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Giants 5, Twins 2: Aaron Sabato Debuts, But Zebby Matthews Stumbled</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/giants-5-twins-2-aaron-sabato-debuts-but-zebby-matthews-stumbled-r21205/</link><description>Box Score

The AL Central was more than winnable this year. But here we are, on track for another sub-.500 season. The vibe is much different, however, with top prospects Kaelen Culpepper, Walker Jenkins, and Emmanuel Rodr&#xED;guez finally with the parent club, looking to gui...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">21199</guid><pubDate>Mon, 21 Sep 2026 22:04:04 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Should the Twins Bring Back Josh Bell for 2027?</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/should-the-twins-bring-back-josh-bell-for-2027-r21192/</link><description>Josh Bell has provided the Minnesota Twins with a steady presence in the middle of their lineup throughout the 2026 season, but with the offseason approaching, the organization will have to decide whether he's done enough to earn another year in Minnesota. He's been a solid hitter, slashing .254...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">21192</guid><pubDate>Mon, 21 Sep 2026 17:05:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Breaking: Twins Calling Up Former First-Round Pick Aaron Sabato</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/breaking-twins-calling-up-former-first-round-pick-aaron-sabato-r21195/</link><description>It's been a long journey for Aaron Sabato. There were probably plenty of moments over the last six years when the former first-round pick wondered if this day would ever come. Now, after grinding through the minor leagues and putting together the best season of his professional career, Sabato is...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">21195</guid><pubDate>Mon, 21 Sep 2026 14:16:10 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Cole Sands and Kody Funderburk Each Have a Problem Heading Into 2027</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/cole-sands-and-kody-funderburk-each-have-a-problem-heading-into-2027-r21198/</link><description>The Twins have to find better answers in the bullpen next season than they found this year, and that process starts now. There are some names that feel like they're written in pen for next year, including Yoendrys G&#xF3;mez, Andrew Morris and Jeff Hoffman. Others appear likely to move on, including...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">21198</guid><pubDate>Mon, 21 Sep 2026 14:07:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Week in Review: Walker's Awakening</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/week-in-review-walkers-awakening-r21197/</link><description>The Weekly Nutshell:

	We've reached a point in the season where the game outcomes don't really matter. In fact, given the draft order implications, you can very well argue that losing is now more valuable than winning for the Twins. From that perspective, this was a fairly successful week: they...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">21197</guid><pubDate>Mon, 21 Sep 2026 01:04:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins 8, Angels 0: How Games Against the Angels Are Supposed to Go</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-8-angels-0-how-games-against-the-angels-are-supposed-to-go-r21194/</link><description>Box Score:

After being acquired from Tampa Bay for mere cash considerations back on May 6, G&#xF3;mez quickly established himself as one of the most reliable arms in the Twins&#x2019; bullpen.
