Detroit clearly has nothing to play for at this point, and tonight’s accomplishment by Romine is among the highlights of their season. This was all for fun, and it’s hard to hold anything agai...6130Sun, 01 Oct 2017 02:54:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/min-6-det-3-dozier-escobar-lead-offense-to-victory-r6129/Snapshot (chart via Fangraphs) There was a pretty significant portion of the crowd of 34,580 that didn't even get inside the stadium before the Tigers scored their three runs. Gibson gave up a single, an RBI triple and a two-run homer before recording the game's first out. But from there, Detroi...6129Sat, 30 Sep 2017 12:42:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-reinstate-miguel-sano-r6128/Minnesota will finish out the regular season this weekend with a three-game series against Detroit. The Twins have little to play for as they are locked into the second Wild Card spot. Tuesday night will likely see the Twins face off against the Yankees in New York. Sano in the midst of his first...6128Fri, 29 Sep 2017 20:07:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/game-thread-twins-v-tigers-929-710pm-ct-r6126/1. Rochester – In this city of 112,224 human beings and 679,000 Canadian geese, health care takes center stage with a rather large clinic dedicated to the treatment of injuries involving Mayonnaise. Each year 1.3 million patients come to Rochester because of these Mayonnaise injuries. Most of thes...6126Fri, 29 Sep 2017 11:33:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/a-blueprint-for-the-bronx-r6123/On the season as a whole, Minnesota owns a 2-4 record and a -8 run differential against Joe Girardi’s squad. They did take the series at Target Field, but were swept on the road in September. A better road team over the full slate of games however, this group isn’t afraid to win anywhere. Without...6123Fri, 29 Sep 2017 02:30:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/cle-5-min-2-ervin-caps-banner-year-with-5-shutout-innings-r6125/Snapshot (chart via Fangraphs) How huge is it that the Twins were able to clinch early? The majority of the regulars got to take a day off. The focus for this weekend can switch from sprinting to the finish to tuning up for what’s next. Heck, Miguel Sano may even have the opportunity to test his...6125Thu, 28 Sep 2017 19:10:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/what-the-hell-just-happened-r6124/In mid-April, the Twins lost six of seven games in a week to division foes. In May, they lost five of six to Cleveland and Houston, which included one gut-wrenching loss and several drubbings. At the end of July they lost seven of eight and traded away a starting pitcher and their closer. Finally,...6124Thu, 28 Sep 2017 16:03:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/sox-win-twins-clinch-playoff-berth-r6122/For the first time since 2010, the Minnesota Twins will play in the playoffs. Most likely, they will be playing in New York against the Yankees next Tuesday. When Delmonico's home run landed, the Twins players erupted into a celebration. You have to feel good for these players and the coaching s...6122Thu, 28 Sep 2017 04:16:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/cle-4-min-2-twins-lose-clinch-postseason-berth-anyway-r6121/Snapshot (chart via Fangraphs) The Twins displayed their typical “no retreat, no surrender” mentality we’ve seen all season, but their comeback effort fell short. Entering the ninth inning, the Twins had just a pair of doubles and a walk, all of which came with two outs. It was another impressiv...6121Thu, 28 Sep 2017 02:42:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-falvey-and-levine-machine-r6120/But the more striking narrative here pertains to the duo's good fortune, rather than their miraculous intervention. Most often, baseball executives getting their first chances to lead a major-league front office are tasked with overhauling a complete mess. From the outside, that's what this looked...6120Thu, 28 Sep 2017 02:26:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/a-gedankenexperiment-beating-the-yankees-r6117/And so, I present the following gedankenexperiment: pick 25 Twins players, custom-picked to beat the Yankees in one game. It’s beyond our normal course of thought: suddenly a team doesn’t need a full rotation on the 25-man roster, or a full complement of a bench or bullpen. But what does one do wi...6117Wed, 27 Sep 2017 04:42:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/min-8-cle-6-twins-use-team-record-10-pitchers-in-victory-r6116/Snapshot (chart via Fangraphs) Dozier led off the game with a double high off the left field wall, came around to score the first run and finished 3-for-5 with that three-run homer, his 33rd, and three runs scored. Byron Buxton successfully stole his 23rd-consecutive base, setting a new t...6116Wed, 27 Sep 2017 03:27:00 +0000
