They've come up empty thus far, despite their efforts to follow through. The Twins reportedly extended to Zack Wheeler a nine-figure offer, which would...8733Mon, 16 Dec 2019 02:22:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/fun-with-narratives-how-3-offseason-targets-can-be-portrayed-in-the-best-and-worst-of-ways-r8731/Since we have talked so much about Madison Bumgarner, Hyun-Jin Ryu and Josh Donaldson this offseason, I will use my personal “next three” offseason targets for the Minnesota Twins in this exercise.

The problem, however, is that the cost and demand are at unforeseen levels. Strasburg and Cole combined for 16 years and $569 million, and even Tanner Roark, Kyle Gibson and Michael...8728Sat, 14 Dec 2019 02:30:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-offseason-trade-target-kyle-seager-r8729/Seattle’s Kyle Seager could be an option teams turn to if they lose our on the likes of free-agent Josh Donaldson or trading for another player like Kris Bryant. Seager will be entering his tenth big league season at age 32 and he has been remarkably healthy throughout the course of his career.

While the Twins have their work cut out for them in bolstering their rotation (looking at you, Ryu), there...8727Fri, 13 Dec 2019 03:30:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-front-office-playing-with-patience-this-winter-r8725/No, that’s not coming from the front office. I think that Derek Falvey and Thad Levine could take a quick look on the Twitter machine and realize pitchforks and brimstone flow heavily through Twins Territory. Doom and gloom is the mood with some big arms being off the board, and the fear of being...8725Thu, 12 Dec 2019 22:03:36 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/let39s-talk-about-willians-astudillo-r8724/It seems like we all have an affinity for baseball players who are more rotund than the trim beefcakes we come to expect from the sport.

It also means that third baseman Josh Donaldson is not the top free agent position...8723Thu, 12 Dec 2019 13:27:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-twins-should-be-dealing-with-the-marlins-r8719/The Miami Marlins are certainly one of the more interesting teams in baseball this winter. They are coming off a 105 loss season, but they have been rumored around some big free agents and appear open to making trades. Good for them.
