	The Twins drafted Jovani Moran in the 7th round of the 2015 MLB Draft as a high schooler from Puerto Rico. Arm issues limited him to fewer than 20 innings in his first two seasons, but he had a breakout season in 2017. He put himself on the prospect radar with a dominant performance in th...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">12917</guid><pubDate>Thu, 25 Aug 2022 11:30:13 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Astros 5, Twins 3: Late Rally Falls Short Again, Twins Drop 5th Consecutive</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/astros-5-twins-3-late-rally-falls-short-again-twins-drop-5th-consecutive-r12920/</link><description>Box Score

He&#x2019;s going to opt out because it makes sense for him to do so from a longevity standpoint.

	The Minnesota Twins shocked the MLB world on March 22, 2022, when they picked up the free agent after the Houston Astros did not pick him back up.&#xA0;




	Correa is undoubtedly one of the best shortstops in the league. His quick reactions to plays and acrobatic moves with put-outs and assis...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">12912</guid><pubDate>Wed, 24 Aug 2022 15:20:30 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Astros 4, Twins 2: Verlander Perfect, Twins Offense Arrives Late in Houston</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/astros-4-twins-2-verlander-perfect-twins-offense-arrives-late-in-houston-r12915/</link><description>Box Score

	The Twins have slowly sunk from their spot in first place and are months removed from looking like a quality baseball team. As crunch time nears it&#x2019;s justifiably the first thought that we want Buxton on the field no matter what to provide whatever spark he has left. It&#x2019;s becoming more and...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">12914</guid><pubDate>Tue, 23 Aug 2022 19:50:06 +0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
