The lineup remains young and on the rise, while the pitching staff has a couple of holdovers worth penciling in going forward. To challenge the Indians in the division, and aim fo...6157Fri, 13 Oct 2017 02:25:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/diving-into-the-offseason-a-dozier-extension-r6158/Yesterday, Brian Dozier was named the 2017 Twins MVP for the third straight year. He’s coming off of another big season. With the team’s success in 2017, the idea of trading Brian Dozier would not go over well with the fan base. That, however, is not the ultimate concern for the front office, thou...6158Thu, 12 Oct 2017 23:55:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-daily-awards-2017-most-valuable-player-r6156/For the third straight year, the Twins Daily Twins MVP goes to their second baseman, Brian Dozier. In 2015, the Twin Cities media voted Miguel Sano team MVP while Dozier received the Twins Daily nod. In 2016, Dozier hit 42 home runs for a 103-loss team to be the easy choice for MVP. In 2017, the c...6156Thu, 12 Oct 2017 11:51:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/knock-knock-silence-r6155/I understand this is not terribly convenient, which brings us back to Opportunity. You may feel like it’s too early. You may not trust Sano’s health. You may not trust Rosario’s plate discipline. You may not trust Buxton’s batting average. You may want to focus on a lot of other issues, like how t...6155Wed, 11 Oct 2017 03:31:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-daily-awards-2017-best-pitcher-r6154/The last time we saw Big Erv take the mound this year, it wasn't pretty. He was an erratic mess at Yankee Stadium in the AL Wild Card Game, instantly coughing up Minnesota's first-inning lead and exiting after two frames. But the Twins never would have reached that unexpected point without Santana...6154Wed, 11 Oct 2017 01:42:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/injury-cloud-surrounds-buxton39s-breakout-season-r6149/Minor League Injuries Buxton burst onto the scene in 2013, his first full minor league season but he missed some time after suffering a shoulder injury. This prevented him from fully participating in the Arizona Fall League. The 2014 season saw him hurt his wrist during spring training and he rein...6149Tue, 10 Oct 2017 03:30:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-daily-awards-2017-rookie-of-the-year-r6151/In 2015, Trevor Hildenberger was the Twins Daily choice for Minor League Relief Pitcher of the Year. In 2016, he repeated as the Twins Daily Relief Pitcher of the Year. During each of those seasons, he gathered several Twins Daily Minor League Relief Pitcher of the Month awards too. But our guess...6151Tue, 10 Oct 2017 03:01:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/it39s-official-twinsmolitor-agree-to-three-year-deal-r6150/Molitor's three-year contract extension will give him the opportunity to be the team's manager through the 2020 season. In the coming weeks, we will find out if Molitor will be named the 2017 American League Manager of the Year.

A quick glance at his offensive numbers may not point to huge improvement – his OPS rose by only 14 points from 2016 to 20...6148Mon, 09 Oct 2017 02:42:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/gleeman-amp-the-geek-ep-337-what39s-up-with-molitor-r6147/http://traffic.libsyn.com/gleemangeek/Episode_337_Whats_up_with_Molitor.mp3?dest-id=745906147Mon, 09 Oct 2017 02:23:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/preseason-predictions-versus-2017-actual-stats-r6146/For each player below, I will provide the link to their prediction article as well as the statistical predictions. Below that, I will share that player’s actual 2017 statistics and some notes on the player’s season. Again, last year when I did this, I pretty much looked like an idiot.

They will either sign him to another multi-year deal, or they will tell him that they are not going to renew his contract and a search will begin. One of the reasons given for letting Doug Mientkiewicz know right...6145Thu, 05 Oct 2017 03:54:00 +0000
