	Kenta Maeda&#x2019;s spring was far from ideal. After missing a year-and-a-half due to Tommy John surgery, the soon-to-be 35-year-old was missing his velocity and command for much of camp. Some were calling for Bailey Ober to get the fifth rotation spot and to figure out how to utilize Maeda els...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">13981</guid><pubDate>Sun, 09 Apr 2023 12:22:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins 9, Astros 6: Twins Top Astros Thanks to 3-Run Homers</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/kyle-farmer-byron-buxton-joe-ryan/</link><description>The bats come alive and the pitching holds it together an impressive win over the Astros.
