They tried handing the position to top prospect Miguel Sano, signing Josh Donaldson to a four-year contract, and then trading Donaldson to the Yankees, hoping to replace him...14670Wed, 26 Jul 2023 13:24:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/mariners-9-twins-7-twins-bullpen-implodes-against-the-mariners-r14683/Box Score: Starting Pitcher: Pablo Lopez: 7 IP, 6 H, 2 ER, 1 BB, 8 K (94 Pitches, 63 Strikes, 67%) Home Runs: Matt Wallner (2), Michael A.

As we now know, that margin was as high as it would ever get. Minnesota's l...14681Tue, 25 Jul 2023 19:21:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/two-relievers-to-watch-for-the-twins-r14680/Looking at the Twins roster, there are a couple of key areas they’ll need to add. The outfield has been entirely left-handed heavy, and the bullpen is very heavily-reliant on Jhoan Duran and Griffin Jax. If there is a straightforward opportunity to add, it’s in both of those key areas. Rece...14680Tue, 25 Jul 2023 16:19:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/planning-minnesotas-perfect-2023-trade-deadline-r14672/Many evaluators looked at the Twins' 2022 trade deadline with a positive view. Minnesota had clear needs at the deadline, and the team addressed those needs by trading for one of the top available starting pitchers, two late-inning relievers, and a back-up catcher. The Tyler Mahle and Jorge Lope...14672Tue, 25 Jul 2023 13:15:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-4-mariners-3-maedas-gem-and-late-inning-heroics-twins-stay-hot-r14679/Box Score SP: Kenta Maeda: 6.1 IP, 6 H, 1 ER, 2 BB, 8 K (98 pitches, 58 strikes (59.2%) Home Runs:  Top 3 WPA: Max Kepler (0.443), Christian Vazquez (0.300), Jovani Moran (0.170) Win Probability Chart (via FanGraphs)  Monday night marked the Minnesota Twins second meeting wi...14679Tue, 25 Jul 2023 02:27:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-number-one-starter-bailey-ober-r14668/The Twins rotation has been a pronounced strength all season despite an underperforming offense and injured bullpen dampening its results. Sonny Gray and Pablo López were both All-Stars, while Joe Ryan very well may have been if he hadn’t pitched the Sunday before the break.

These players may be wasted with their current franchise, after all; might a move to the dynastic Twins better both side’s fortunes? Indeed, there a...14661Mon, 24 Jul 2023 15:12:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/should-the-twins-shop-a-young-corner-bat-r14660/Between Max Kepler, Joey Gallo, Trevor Larnach, and Matt Wallner, the Twins have four left-handed corner outfielders for two spots, and no DH role open with Byron Buxton appearing to be no closer to returning to the field. This, of course, is before Nick Gordon returns from the 60-day IL.
