However, they non-tendered catcher Chris Gimenez shortly after the season. So, Friday was a big day for six Twins players. Here is the breakdown: EDUARDO ESCOBAR The Twins utility player turned every day player (almost every seas...6328Fri, 12 Jan 2018 18:07:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/looking-back-twins-draft-kirby-puckett-r1115/I assume many know the history of Kirby Puckett. He's a Hall of Famer and one of the greatest players in Minnesota Twins history. His legend grew as the leader of the 1987 and 1991 World Series championship teams. For someone in my age group, we know all about the Kirby Puckett story. Howev...1115Fri, 12 Jan 2018 15:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-time-for-a-buxton-extension-is-now-r6327/Entering his final season before the arbitration clock begins, Buxton is reaching a point where the Twins generally lock up their building-block players, for cost assurance if nothing else. DOZIER VU Like, deja vu. Get it? Alright it's dumb but let's get back to the point. It was at this same stag...6327Fri, 12 Jan 2018 07:53:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/hard-work-jorge-pays-off-r6325/In 2016, the Twins deserved some criticism for their handling of the up-the-middle defender. Despite having not played a single inning at shortstop in affiliated baseball since 2015 at Triple-A, he was thrust into the starting role with the Twins and logged just over 400 innings. For a guy who al...6325Fri, 12 Jan 2018 02:30:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/minnesota%E2%80%99s-base-running-resurgence-r6322/According to FanGraphs, Base Running (BsR) is an all-encompassing base running statistic that turns stolen bases, caught stealings, and other base running plays (taking extra bases, being thrown out on the bases, etc.) into runs above and below average. It is a combination of Weighted Stolen Base...6322Thu, 11 Jan 2018 02:30:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/2018-minnesota-twins-roster-projections-the-catchers-r6321/We will start this series by looking at the Twins catchers. Jason Castro will be the starter. A year ago, he received a three year, $24.5 million contract, primarily for his pitch framing abilities. He responded with his best offensive season in four years. Chris Gimenez was his backup a year ago,...6321Wed, 10 Jan 2018 06:00:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/hey-joe-what39s-next-r6319/Using the Twittersphere to conduct a quick impromptu poll, just over 100 responses rolled in to the question, "What do you think Joe Mauer does in 2019?" With the available responses being that he stays with the Twins, heads elsewhere, or retires, there was an overwhelming response regarding two o...6319Wed, 10 Jan 2018 01:34:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/projecting-the-2021-twins-pitching-staff-r6320/This projection does not factor in any kind of free agent additions or extensions. All the guys added this offseason will be gone by then. Ervin Santana, Kyle Gibson and Ryan Pressly will all be free agents in 2020 at the latest. Trevor May will be a free agent in 2021. Bartolo Colon will be 48 by...6320Wed, 10 Jan 2018 01:08:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/winter-meltdown-and-diamond-award-tickets-available-now33-r6304/They're awesome, truly a bucket list item for Twins fans. It’s the night before Twins Fest (Thursday, January 18) at The Depot. It’ll be a star-studded affair including an awards dinner celebrating the Diamond Awards winners like Brian Dozier, Ervin Santana, Byron Buxton, Trevor Hildenberger and J...6304Tue, 02 Jan 2018 17:00:52 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/justin-morneau-to-retire-join-twins-front-office-r6318/Reports are that Morneau will officially retire and become a special assistant in the Twins. The team has yet to make the announcement official but that could come as Twins Fest approaches. Under the Twins new front office, the club has added former players like Torii Hunter, Michael Cuddyer and L...6318Tue, 09 Jan 2018 15:25:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/why-i-believe-the-twins-are-going-to-sign-yu-darvish-r6317/What leads me to this conclusion? Well, part of it is wishful thinking, I'll admit. Darvish would be an awesome fit on the Twins and would lift them to serious championship contender status almost instantly. I badly want to see it, so long as the price makes any sense. But there are also plenty of...6317Tue, 09 Jan 2018 04:20:00 +0000
