Obviously, there&#x2019;s a clear talent gap, but beyond that, the arms are being deployed in a seemingly inconsistent manner. Minor-league veteran Luis Garc&#xED;a threw two innings of 9th-inning mop-up to begin his Twins care...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">20346</guid><pubDate>Tue, 19 May 2026 22:11:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>BREAKING: Twins Option Royce Lewis to Minor Leagues, Will Call Up Orlando Arcia</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/breaking-twins-option-royce-lewis-to-minor-leagues-will-call-up-orlando-arcia-r20341/</link><description>Farming out outfielder Matt Wallner was never going to be the last of the Twins' major moves, as the team shakes up its roster and tries to accelerate its move toward a new core and away from the bitter failures of the last season and a half.

At 61&#xB0;, he has one of the league's highest arm angles; few pitchers have a truer over-the-top motion than his.

	Coming out of the 2025 season, first base looked like one of the weaker positions on the Twins&#x2019; roster. The front office added veteran bats in Victor Caratini and Josh Bell to provide depth and offensive production, while also hoping to solidify the designated hitter role. Despite that, t...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">20330</guid><pubDate>Mon, 18 May 2026 11:33:25 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Week in Review: Patience Wears Thin</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/week-in-review-patience-wears-thin-r20334/</link><description>The Weekly Nutshell:

	We've reached the second half of May, and that's where things start coming into focus. Samples are growing more substantial, and patience is wearing thin for struggling players who are derailing the team's results.&#xA0;

	Plenty of damage has already been done by the bullpen, which is why the Twins need to stay diligent in cycling through arms in hopes that they can build a functional group as the season goes on. We&#x2019;ve seen some debuts and roster claims, but it&#x2019;s still very much a work in progress.
