Let&#x2019;s not mince words here, Detroit is a poor team who has somehow even played below the level of the lowly Orioles this year. Their talent is few and far between and even harder to spot after Nick Castellanos and Shane Greene were dealt at the deadline. They currently have no qual...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">8300</guid><pubDate>Fri, 23 Aug 2019 13:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Getting Defensive</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/getting-defensive-r8301/</link><description>The Twins defense has been a topic in the second half, particularly in the infield. So I thought it might be fun to take a look at how the Twins stack up by this metric in its most recent analysis (through games of August 18th).

He was named to his second straight All-Star Game (despite some unnecessary finagling) and has posted strong tallies across the board.
