We expected Wes Johnson to initiate some velocity increases, bu...8341Sun, 01 Sep 2019 18:15:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/a-revamped-approach-has-made-all-the-difference-for-trevor-may-r8342/During the first half of the season, Trevor May was one of the more reliable options coming out of the Twins bullpen. At the All-Star Break, May had posted a 3.06 ERA, and was holding opposing hitters to a .596 OPS. Once play started in the second half, it quickly fell apart for Trevor May. It st...8342Sun, 01 Sep 2019 15:35:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/brusdar-graterol-among-8-callups-kyle-gibson-to-the-il-r8340/The most exciting move among these announced roster additions is certainly Brusdar Graterol. He just turned 21-years-old earlier this week, and the Twins gave him quite the belated birthday present.

Jonathan Schoop at Texas (8/16/19) 0.31 WPA Schoop entered this game in the midst of what is likely the largest slump of his career.

Without diving too deep into the numbers, we can clearly see that both pitchers have hit a wall. Berrios and Gibson both pitched career high innings in 2018, with Berrios going 192 1/3 innings and Gibson reaching 196...8333Sat, 31 Aug 2019 00:45:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/series-preview-dead-team-in-the-auto-town-r8332/Brief Overview: Last week I wrote that Detroit was a poor team and they were so offended by that statement that they decided to take the first game of that series and then subsequently lose every other game heading into this series.
