We&#x2019;ve seen an August 31st trade deadline before, but never like this one. We used to have a revocable waiver trade deadline prior to 2019 which some teams did take advantage of. Before underestimating the amount of craziness we could see at the deadline this year because of th...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9500</guid><pubDate>Sun, 28 Jun 2020 02:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Using Splits to Spin a Narrative for the 2020 Minnesota Twins</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/using-splits-to-spin-a-narrative-for-the-2020-minnesota-twins-r9493/</link><description>Now that we know the season will be 60 games (barring a Covid-related disaster), it&#x2019;s possible to begin speculating potential outcomes by using the career split stats of Twins players. We can roughly use a player&#x2019;s March/April stats to predict first month production, then use May for the second mo...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9493</guid><pubDate>Sat, 27 Jun 2020 02:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>5 Twins Over/Unders in 60-game Season</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/5-twins-overunders-in-60-game-season-r9495/</link><description>Twins regular season games played: 59.5
Multiple players from multiple teams have already tested positive for COVID-19. MLB can plan as much as they want, but the virus remains a concern. The golden question looms: will the season be completed as scheduled?
Twins regular season wins: 37.5

We know who Minnesota will play, and we know the constructs of what the league hopes to take place. In order to combat some of the havoc the virus could wreak, new roster stipulations have been p...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9499</guid><pubDate>Fri, 26 Jun 2020 22:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>What History Tells Us to Expect From a 60-Game Season</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/what-history-tells-us-to-expect-from-a-60-game-season-r9501/</link><description>As most baseball fans know, the importance of a 162-game regular season is not just an excuse to make more money for the owners, but also a needed thing to create a large enough sample size to adequately separate the good teams from the not as good teams.

While the former Bomba Squad seems to have all the pieces needed for a deep run in an expanded postseason, there are a few speed bumps along the way...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9498</guid><pubDate>Fri, 26 Jun 2020 02:30:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>A Closer Look at the Minnesota Twins' 2020 Schedule</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/a-closer-look-at-the-minnesota-twins39-2020-schedule-r9494/</link><description>While we still don&#x2019;t know the exact dates of the games or the order in which the series will be played, Jayson Stark of The Athletic provided fans with the nuts and bolts of what the baseball schedule will look like in 2020. Here&#x2019;s how the schedule will break down:

But the quick version is this: We're playing a progressive simulated Twins season on MLB The Show 20 on PS4, and y'all are helping guide the ship.

Only the players on that list will be eligible to play during the frantic 60-game season that begins late next month. That makes for a number of interesting decisions over the coming days, because even in a 162-g...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9492</guid><pubDate>Thu, 25 Jun 2020 02:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Reviewing the Twins Offseason and how Each Move is Affected by a Short Season</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/reviewing-the-twins-offseason-and-how-each-move-is-affected-by-a-short-season-r9491/</link><description>Twins bring back Jake Odorizzi and Michael Pineda:
When Odorizzi accepted the one year qualifying offer, I thought it was a smart decision. He could have another good year and then go make a ton of money. Instead he will play on a one year contract and then enter free agency where it will be diffi...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9491</guid><pubDate>Thu, 25 Jun 2020 01:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>5 Reasons the Twins are a Good Bet to Succeed in a Shortened Season</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/5-reasons-the-twins-are-a-good-bet-to-succeed-in-a-shortened-season-r9483/</link><description>On the surface, the variability of a 60-game season doesn&#x2019;t seem to bode well for a team like the Twins whose talent would have more time to shine through over the length of a 162-game season. However, there are several reasons why the Twins are still a good bet. I&#x2019;ll give you five.
