When the Twins traded away multiple pieces before last year&#x2019;s trade deadline, Dozier was vocal about his unhappiness with the moves. One year later and the Twins are poised to be in the playoff hunt once again. With the Indians expected to lead the AL Central, Minnesota...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">6580</guid><pubDate>Tue, 03 Apr 2018 01:30:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>PIT 5, MIN 4: Lynn Surrenders Grand Slam in Twins Debut</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/pit-5-min-4-lynn-surrenders-grand-slam-in-twins-debut-r6582/</link><description>Snapshot (chart via FanGraphs)
