When the season began, Triple-A catchers Jair Camargo and Diego Cartaya were the primary high-m...19153Mon, 15 Sep 2025 14:30:41 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-frustrating-side-of-byron-buxtons-mvp-caliber-season-r19150/Byron Buxton has finally put together the season that Twins fans have been awaiting for over a decade. He’s healthy, he’s raking, and he’s turning in highlight-reel plays on a nightly basis. At his best, Buxton has always looked like an MVP, but in 2025, he’s actually putting up MVP numbers.

We forget that players can make significant strides both in the offseason and during the year. Too often we fall into the trap of thinking, “this is who they are.” That mindset might stick with established veterans, but for younger players,...19107Sat, 13 Sep 2025 17:19:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-minnesota-twins-must-decide-if-rocco-baldelli-is-the-fall-guy-r19141/The Minnesota Twins are barreling toward their first 90-loss season under the current front office regime, and it’s fair to ask if a managerial change is on the horizon this winter.

Justin Topa, who has been asked to carry more than his fair share of innings this season, is headed to the 15-day injured list with a left oblique strain, retroactive to September 9. For a bullpen that has leaned heavily on him — 54 appearances, 60 innin...19145Fri, 12 Sep 2025 20:02:52 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/5-out-of-options-players-playing-for-their-twins-careers-down-the-stretch-r19140/Obviously, every player is playing for their jobs.

This September, though, it’s hard for fans to feel valued, given the state of the franchise.  The main contributor to the bottomed-out fan morale is obviously the on-field product, but it go...19138Thu, 11 Sep 2025 22:12:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/taking-the-temperature-how-twins-fans-feel-about-rocco-baldelli-the-front-office-and-ownership-r19131/One of the most unique features at Twins Daily is our daily polling tool, which allows fans to weigh in on all aspects of the organization.
