Quick and left-handed, the profile certainly fit. If we’re going with a big body in the pocket, and arm strength out the wazoo, the choice here is obvious. Schoop has an absolute howitzer for a...8317Wed, 28 Aug 2019 02:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/series-preview-revenge-is-a-dish-best-served-cold-r8315/Brief Overview: These two clubs met a week ago, and they’ll meet again three weeks from now. Because the Twins were light on AL Central opponents to kick off the year, they’re going to see plenty of familiar faces during the final month of the season.

Minnesota is head and shoulders above the crowd when it comes to fastballs and looking at pitch type linear weights in relation to that pitch (wFB). According to FanGraphs, this linear weight “attempts to answer the question, ‘How well has a batter/pitcher...8318Tue, 27 Aug 2019 02:30:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-hazy-future-of-fernando-romero-r8320/In mostly bypassing the reliever free agent market (a wise enough choice, in retrospect) the Twins envisioned a bullpen whose back-end would be powered by the likes of Taylor Rogers, Trevor May, Addison Reed, Trevor Hildenberger, and Fernando Romero, with other options to emerge during the course...8320Tue, 27 Aug 2019 01:20:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/4-questions-the-twins-need-to-address-concerning-their-potential-playoff-roster-r8319/First, we have to look at the Twins and figure out what are their needs and what they can do about it. At this moment, ten pitchers and ten position players (provided Byron Buxton is healthy) are considered by most as locks for the postseason. Those 20 players don't include the players below, so w...8319Tue, 27 Aug 2019 00:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/i-think-i-found-out-what%E2%80%99s-wrong-with-jose-berrios-r8314/Say me for instance, I remember when Adrian Peterson nearly clipped the 2,100 yards or when Jason Zucker beat the Blackhawks in 2013, and conversely when Blair Walsh's epic failure from 27.
