With no exact origin story, the alignment likely began when the first runner reached third base at Elysian Fields.
As an organization, the Minnesota Twins have hired people to run their baseball operations who question the game&#x2019;s status quo -- Wh...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9981</guid><pubDate>Thu, 15 Oct 2020 04:54:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins Daily 2020 Awards: Best Pitcher</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-daily-2020-awards-best-pitcher-r9979/</link><description>Voting for pitcher of the year can be difficult. How do you compare a starting pitcher who may work 160-200 innings to a top relief pitcher who might throw 60 innings, but most of them are very high leverage? 
That distinction becomes even more difficult in 2020 when the top starting pitchers thre...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9979</guid><pubDate>Thu, 15 Oct 2020 02:38:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Josh Donaldson Continues to Call Out Umpires, Is He Right?</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/josh-donaldson-continues-to-call-out-umpires-is-he-right-r9969/</link><description>Former Twins player Trevor Plouffe started the conversation on Twitter when he brought up the fact that umpires &#x201C;aren&#x2019;t held accountable&#x201D; and thy have &#x201C;as much job protection as a Supreme Court justice.&#x201D; Josh Donaldson responded by saying, &#x201C;It&#x2019;s embarrassing.

The fan-favorite retired Twins third baseman was retired and cutting his teeth in the business world as a Planet Fitness franchisee in the Twin Cities. And while the Manitoba native made a name for himself in Twins Territory for his smooth lefty swing, things weren't...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9974</guid><pubDate>Wed, 14 Oct 2020 03:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins' Payroll Points to Six Big Decisions</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins39-payroll-points-to-six-big-decisions-r9977/</link><description>Still, through the crud, we can see the Twins wrestling with six big decisions. The first is the biggest, and everything else is dependent on it:
Decision 1: How much will the Twins budget in player payroll next year?
This is always a small mystery, but we usually have an idea within $10 million o...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9977</guid><pubDate>Wed, 14 Oct 2020 02:08:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins Daily 2020 Awards: Most Improved Player</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-daily-2020-awards-most-improved-player-r9976/</link><description>Most Improved. It is a difficult award to vote on, and this year that was certainly the case. What does it mean? Well, it could be a guy that had a bad first half of the season and really turned it on and showed great improvement as the season went along. Often, it is a player coming off of a disa...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9976</guid><pubDate>Wed, 14 Oct 2020 01:47:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Minnesota Should Plunder Another Pirates Pitcher</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/minnesota-should-plunder-another-pirates-pitcher-r9973/</link><description>As a former first round pick, Musgrove is now a part of his third organization. Drafted by the Blue Jays in 2011, he was dealt to the Houston Astros prior to now having spent the bulk of his career with the Pittsburgh Pirates. The career 4.33 ERA doesn&#x2019;t do much to jump off the page, but as a guy...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9973</guid><pubDate>Wed, 14 Oct 2020 01:03:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Offseason Live Replay: Twins Payroll</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/offseason-live-replay-twins-payroll-r9975/</link><description>Facebook

What went right?
The Indians seemed to be set up well to find a way to win. Shane Bieber was the American League&#x2019;s best pitcher for the entire season and the rest of the rotation was strong with Zach Plesac, Carlos Carrasco, and Triston McKenzie making strong contributions.

They not only participate in games, but are essentially asked to run them. Catchers must signal for and interact with every pitch, and (as framing metrics illuminate) they can imp...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9972</guid><pubDate>Tue, 13 Oct 2020 01:25:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>The Year That Never Was</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-year-that-never-was-r9967/</link><description>The 2020 Twins were set to be unique in the lineage of other Twins teams. Josh Donaldson was the biggest free agent the team had ever acquired, Kenta Maeda was one of the first truly great starting pitchers the team had traded for, and the offense was coming off a season in which they bashed 307 h...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9967</guid><pubDate>Mon, 12 Oct 2020 02:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
