Yes, it would have been nice to watch the Carlos Correa-led collective demonstrate resiliency, pick themselves up b...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">18969</guid><pubDate>Thu, 14 Aug 2025 13:07:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Is This the End of the 50/50 Catcher Split in Minnesota?</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/is-this-the-end-of-the-5050-catcher-split-in-minnesota-r18954/</link><description>For nearly three years, the Twins have defied one of baseball&#x2019;s most common trends. They have relied on just two catchers, at a time when depth at the position is critical and injuries often force constant roster shuffling. Minnesota built its game plan around a precise 50/50 timeshare between R...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">18954</guid><pubDate>Thu, 14 Aug 2025 11:30:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins 4, Yankees 1: Snarling and Hurling</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-4-yankees-1-snarling-and-hurling-r18971/</link><description>Box Score

It also sent a strong signal about the immediate future of the team&#x2019;s leadership structure&#x2014;one that has been remarkably consistent, even...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">18968</guid><pubDate>Wed, 13 Aug 2025 20:21:33 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Downshifting to Short Relief Could Unlock the Big-League Futures of Two Rookie Twins Hurlers</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/downshifting-to-short-relief-could-unlock-the-big-league-futures-of-two-rookie-twins-hurlers-r18935/</link><description>The mass exodus of the Twins' relief corps has left the team with a decimated bullpen for both the short and long term. We&#x2019;ve already seen them begin to scour the waiver wire for interesting arms, and several spots have been filled by veteran options who are unlikely to develop into much beyond...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">18935</guid><pubDate>Wed, 13 Aug 2025 17:04:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>NEWS: Pohlad Family Will Remain Principal Owners of Twins, with New Limited Partners Coming Aboard</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/news-pohlad-family-will-remain-principal-owners-of-twins-with-new-limited-partners-coming-aboard-r18966/</link><description>&#xA0;




	In a move sure to bring huge, largely negative reaction from Twins Territory, the Pohlad family will remain principal owners of the team, they announced via the team's official channels Wednesday morning. There will be new limited partners (presumably, sources of new capital who will rece...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">18966</guid><pubDate>Wed, 13 Aug 2025 14:59:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>How New Pitching Prospect Mick Abel Can Be Minnesota Twins' Next Joe Ryan</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/how-new-pitching-prospect-mick-abel-can-be-minnesota-twins-next-joe-ryan-r18963/</link><description>When the Twins acquired Joe Ryan in the Nelson Cruz trade, he was an overlooked arm in the Tampa Bay Rays system. His minor league numbers were strong, but he was blocked from breaking into a rotation stacked with established big-league arms. The Rays moved him, and the Twins reaped the rewards....</description><guid isPermaLink="false">18963</guid><pubDate>Wed, 13 Aug 2025 11:58:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Yankees 9, Twins 1: Carlos Rod&#xF3;n, More Yankees Homers Crush Twins Underfoot</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/yankees-9-twins-1-carlos-rod%C3%B3n-more-yankees-homers-crush-twins-underfoot-r18964/</link><description>Box Score

Most mock drafts had the contact-oriented right-handed bat landing anywhere from pick No. 5 (held by the Minnesota Twins) through No. 20. Ultimately, he was selec...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">18961</guid><pubDate>Tue, 12 Aug 2025 22:22:37 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Even with Byron Buxton Back, Minnesota Twins Should Bat Luke Keaschall Atop the Batting Order</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/even-with-byron-buxton-back-minnesota-twins-should-bat-luke-keaschall-atop-the-batting-order-r18956/</link><description>Who is writing these lineups? I felt like I was shouting at the sky for a long time for this regime to hit Byron Buxton leadoff and to stop trying to reinvent baseball. It&#x2019;s simple: take your best on-base guy and/or the guy who creates the most chaos, and slot him into the leadoff spot.

This is months too early. There are still nearly 50 games left in the 2025 season. Free agents will be signed (probably). Trades will happen (almost certainly). Injuries will happen; it&#x2019;s the Twins, after all. Prospects will emerge between now and then.
