It has been routine for players to look completely overmatched against MLB pitching before heading do...18405Fri, 30 May 2025 19:56:19 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-go-all-in-2-potential-trade-packages-for-pittsburghs-paul-skenes-r18400/The Pirates sit at the bottom of the NL Central, and have already fired their manager this season. They are a long way from being back in contention. Meanwhile, Paul Skenes has become a must-watch pitcher for their club and helped to invigorate the fanbase, but the Pirates will be irrelevant dur...18400Fri, 30 May 2025 16:10:05 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/rocco-baldelli-has-a-twins-team-he-can-trust-to-manage-themselves-and-each-other-r18394/It’s common knowledge—or perhaps cliché, depending on your persuasion—that team chemistry is essential. Teams who stick together win together; fun begets winning and winning begets fun; so on and so forth. The Twins are winning, and, by all accounts, they’re having fun. In recent years, the...18394Fri, 30 May 2025 15:04:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/whats-behind-twins-slugger-royce-lewiss-struggles-at-the-plate-r18395/It’s no secret that Royce Lewis hasn’t looked like himself at the plate this season. Through May 28, Lewis is hitting just .138, with a ..415 OPS. His OPS+, which is adjusted for park, is sitting at a brutal 25, meaning that Lewis has been about 75% worse than an average hitter. After Wednesday'...18395Fri, 30 May 2025 11:27:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/reframing-dominant-twins-reliever-griffin-jaxs-2025-performance-r18393/Griffin Jax has had an up-and-down season, numbers-wise. He has a six-pitch arsenal, but he has primarily used three pitches this year. Jax also has excellent command of the fastball and good enough velocity, topping out around 97 MPH. His sweeper is his most frequently used pitch, but his chang...18393Thu, 29 May 2025 22:08:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/101-walkoff-wins-at-target-field-a-statistical-story-r18387/Ty France delivered the 100th walkoff win in Target Field history earlier this month, hammering a game-winning homer against the Royals. It was a milestone moment for the ballpark, and before there was time to reflect on it, the Twins added another the very next day. Rookie Brooks Lee came throu...18387Thu, 29 May 2025 15:12:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/%E2%80%9Cjust-having-fun%E2%80%9D-royce-lewis-and-the-ironic-burden-of-joy-in-pro-sports-r18397/Baseball, at its core, is a game. A kid’s pastime. A joyous outlet! But at the highest level, under the suffocating weight of expectation and pressure, it often becomes anything but fun — which is what makes it so jarring (yet understandable) when a slumping player leans into that very mindset a...18397Thu, 29 May 2025 11:34:20 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/minnesota-twins-ownership-update-from-%E2%80%9Cdismal%E2%80%9D-to-progressing-r18390/As the Minnesota Twins navigate the 2025 season, the potential sale of the franchise by the Pohlad family has become a focal point of discussion. The Pohlads, who have owned the team since 1984, are reportedly seeking a sale price of $1.7 billion. That's the same price the Baltimore Orioles sold...18390Wed, 28 May 2025 23:06:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/rays-5-twins-0-literal-rays-beat-twins-in-sweltering-series-finale-r18392/Box Score Starting Pitcher: Pablo López 5 IP, 4H, 4ER, 2BB, 3K (95 pitches, 63 strikes (66%)) Home Runs: None Bottom 3 WPA: Pablo López (-.184); Royce Lewis (.-127); Ryan Jeffers (-.075) Win Probability Chart (via FanGraphs) There are few things less comfortable than touching...18392Wed, 28 May 2025 19:52:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-minnesota-twins-pitching-staff-is-a-buzzsaw-r18386/It's safe to say the Twins have a formula. They've ridden it to a 17-5 record in their last 22 games, and we saw it successfully deployed again in Tampa on Tuesday night. Minnesota's pitching staff is so good, so consistent, that all the Twins offense needs to do is show up and the game is basic...18386Wed, 28 May 2025 13:48:55 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/ranking-twins-2025-all-star-candidates-is-byron-buxton-a-lock-r18382/The calendar is creeping toward June, which means one of baseball’s great traditions is about to return: All-Star voting.
