What stands as truth either way, however, is that Rocco Baldelli should lay claim to having baseball’s best outfield. As always, Byron Buxton needs to stay healthy. That has been the case forever and...13617Fri, 03 Feb 2023 16:12:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/looking-for-the-next-griffin-jax-r13631/  Griffin Jax got a look as a starting pitcher down the inconsequential stretch of 2021. It didn’t go great as evidenced by his 6.37 ERA in 82 innings, but when his bright spots popped up, they were typically driven by a slider-heavy approach.  While it can be rash to judge a starting...13631Fri, 03 Feb 2023 14:18:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/lets-road-trip-2023-trip-10-detroit-philadelphia-87-813-r13611/  August 7-10 @ Detroit Tigers (4 games) Comerica Park - 2022 attendance was 1,551,149 (ranked 10th out of 15 AL teams, 22nd overall MLB) The Twins make their return trip to Detroit during the heat of August’s pennant push.

Teams can trade away fan-favorite players or sign free agents to multi-million dollar deals.

Always relied upon when the inevitable pitcher injury bug struck but never promised a spot with the big club. He was meant to be discarded, called up to soak innings, before heading back to St. Paul with a ma...13622Thu, 02 Feb 2023 14:21:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/pivotal-twins-players-ryan-miranda-gordon/  Yes, we all know that health uncertainty is the banner headline for the 2023 Twins. "If they're healthy" is the rallying cry for even the most optimistic fan.  As pivotal as they are, these situations just aren't very fun to analyze or talk about, because they feel so beyond anyone's...13636Thu, 02 Feb 2023 03:54:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/joey-gall0-new-chance/This criticism is strange, considering Joey Gallo has provided elite-level talent as recently as two years ago.
