While that&#x2019;s a great though, and obviously what would favor the almighty dollar, any logistical hurdles that would impose seem certain to have other ideas. With there only being so many teams...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9119</guid><pubDate>Wed, 18 Mar 2020 02:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>How MLB&#x2019;s Delayed Start Could Impact Minnesota&#x2019;s Rotation</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/how-mlb%E2%80%99s-delayed-start-could-impact-minnesota%E2%80%99s-rotation-r9112/</link><description>We&#x2019;ll break the rotation down into small pairings who share similar potential impacts based on the delay. All of the results would be magnified or altered depending on the length of the delay.

THE GOOD
Reading through the 2019 fWAR leaderboard at right field is a veritable "who's who" of MLB stardom:

Record: 77-77 (3rd in the AL West)
The first player strike in baseball history took out the first two weeks of the 1972 season. Players wanted an increase in their pension fund payments and salary arbitration added to the Collective Bargaining Agreement. A total of 86 games were lost over 13-...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9114</guid><pubDate>Tue, 17 Mar 2020 02:30:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Let's Try to Align a Defense Against Luis Arr&#xE1;ez</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/let39s-try-to-align-a-defense-against-luis-arr%C3%A1ez-r9113/</link><description>Plenty of batters who make frequent contact do so on the ground, or towards predictable and easily defended areas of the diamond. In his stellar rookie season, Arr&#xE1;ez avoided those traps. He showed an almost Joe Mauer-like ability to smack medium-strength line drives into the areas just beyond in...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9113</guid><pubDate>Tue, 17 Mar 2020 00:30:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Get to Know: Dick Bremer, Twins Broadcaster, Author</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/get-to-know-dick-bremer-twins-broadcaster-author-r9107/</link><description>The 2020 season will be Dick Bremer's 37th season covering the Minnesota Twins on TV. It also marks the 60th season that the Twins will be play in Minnesota.
To mark the occasion, Bremer has been working with Triumph Books on an autobiography of sorts.

Given the scope and gravity of COVID-19, there's a good chance it'll be a long while before normalcy returns.

1. Game replays on YouTube
Nothing quite beats the sights and sounds of baseball. Having spring training suspended and the start of the baseball season delayed means having to wait even longer to watch the game we all love.

The Puckett feature picks up at around the 50-second mark. Commercials were not edited out of this video, but that may be more of a feature than a flaw in this case.

I&#x2019;m just going to say it, Randy Dobnak can be a Marcus Stroman-esque pitcher for the Minnesota Twins. Do you think that&#x2019;s ridiculous? What&#x2019;s ridiculous is how similar the two pitcher&#x2019;s prof...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9105</guid><pubDate>Sun, 15 Mar 2020 01:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>TwinsTube: Harmon Killebrew on Home Run Derby</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twinstube-harmon-killebrew-on-home-run-derby-r9106/</link><description>These episodes were recorded at a minor league stadium in Los Angeles during December of 1959 and aired in 1960.
