The deal is noteworthy for a couple of reasons. First, the opt-out comes after year one, in which Correa could look for another payday on the open market with a different group of shortstop competition. The other le...12521Tue, 21 Jun 2022 15:40:07 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-truth-about-catchers-framing-and-deception-r12519/  Ryan Jeffers has been lost at the plate for most of the season. As Matt Braun recently pointed out for Twins Daily, he’s starting to find it, but one thing that has never wavered is his defense. Minnesota has placed an emphasis on receiving for some time, and to the degree that runners la...12519Mon, 20 Jun 2022 16:50:05 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/4-veteran-players-the-twins-can-trade-r12525/As the calendar gets closer to July, Minnesota's roster looks like it will need more pitching depth to stay at the top of the AL Central. The Twins' front office has been creative to keep the team's winning window open as long as possible. Here are some veteran players the team can trade to add...12525Mon, 20 Jun 2022 14:20:06 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/week-in-review-lack-of-consistency-r12524/  Last Week's Game Results: Game 63 | MIN 3, SEA 2: Buxton's Early Bomb Proves Decisive Game 64 | SEA 5, MIN 0: Ryan Rocked in Return, Bats Blanked Game 65 | MIN 5, SEA 0: Offense Surges Late to Clinch Series Game 66 | AZ 7, MIN 2: Twins Drop Series Opener to Diamondbacks Game...12524Mon, 20 Jun 2022 03:14:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/diamondbacks-7-twins-1-twins-punished-by-the-long-ball-drop-rubber-game-r12523/Box Score Starting Pitcher: Chris Archer, 4.0 IP, 3H, 2R, 2ER, 0BB, 3 K (61 pitches, 38 strikes, 62.2%) Home Runs: none Bottom 3 WPA: Caleb Thielbar (-.140), Carlos Correa (-.133), Griffin Jax (-.069) Win Probability Chart (via FanGraphs) No team in baseball has had better produ...12523Sun, 19 Jun 2022 23:06:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/five-relievers-the-twins-might-grab-at-the-trade-deadline-r12516/  Anyone watching this team meanwhile can see a different problem: a shaky bullpen in need of backup.

The bullpen is probably in need of two solid arms at the very least. The question is whether the Twins see it necessary to add to the rotation. With arms shuffling in and out with injury and none of their top prospects in...12512Sat, 18 Jun 2022 14:37:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/luis-arraez-deserves-to-be-an-all-star-starter-r12502/Luis Arraez has been absolutely dominant at the plate all season for the Minnesota Twins.
