He was going on two-days rest, so it was planned that he wouldn’t go more than two innings. What he was able to do was work on all of his p...5424Mon, 13 Mar 2017 22:06:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/byungho-park-tries-to-catch-up-by-slowing-down-r5421/*** I'll be handling this week's Write of Spring newsletter, a special in-depth report breaking down a particular topic from Twins camp, along with a notebook dump of quotes and rumblings. The only way to get it is by making sure you're on the mailing list. It's free! *** Park went from hitting...5421Mon, 13 Mar 2017 06:01:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/did-you-know-that-jason-castro-is-good-at-framing-r5420/His first point, however, is that he doesn’t consider it framing. To Castro, “framing” sounds intentionally misleading -- like an act on a little league field where a youth catcher tries to yank a ball that crosses over the empty batter’s box back over the plate, hoping the high school-aged umpir...5420Mon, 13 Mar 2017 05:30:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/gleeman-amp-the-geek-ep-300-trevor-may-amp-al-east-over-unders-r5419/http://traffic.libsyn.com/gleemangeek/Episode_300_Trevor_May_and_AL_East_Over-Under.mp3?dest-id=745905419Mon, 13 Mar 2017 02:21:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/report-from-the-fort-home-run-derby-r5417/* Home runs have been a problem for Phil Hughes frequently throughout his career, and certainly over the past couple of underwhelming seasons. He led the league with 29 allowed in 2015 and coughed up 11 in just 59 innings last year. Today, Baltimore’s lineup took him deep three times en route to t...5417Sun, 12 Mar 2017 21:03:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/report-from-the-fort-beantown-beatdown-r5415/* The events of the day were overshadowed by this morning’s news that right-hander Trevor May, who had positioned himself to claim Minnesota’s fifth starter job, suffered a tear of the ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow. You can get the whole story in our report, which includes thoughts...5415Sat, 11 Mar 2017 21:43:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/mri-reveals-torn-ucl-for-trevor-may-r5414/In a decade of playing professional ball, May has amazingly been able to avoid any kind of significant elbow or shoulder issues. “I’ve literally never missed a day of baseball activity because my arm hurt,” he said. So it isn’t too surprising that when he felt a “grab” on an 0-2 pitch against Andr...5414Sat, 11 Mar 2017 15:39:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/press-start-may-changes-his-game-again-r5413/There was some consternation over Minnesota's lack of offseason action on the starting pitching front, given the horrendous results that unit put forth last year. However, the rotation can potentially receive a huge boost simply by getting May back following his 2016 foray into the bullpen. It’s...5413Fri, 10 Mar 2017 02:14:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/breaking-down-the-twins-spring-ballpark-pass-r5410/I was as excited as anybody for Target Field to open, but I only got to one game that first season, and sat literally in the last row of the upper deck. Ticket prices have been on the decline in recent years, but the Twins are breaking new ground (in the Target Field era, at least) with their newe...5410Fri, 10 Mar 2017 01:38:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/report-from-the-fort-colombia-conquered-r5412/* In the context of his previous work, Santana’s final line – 4 IP, 4 H, 2 ER, 3 K, 1 BB – looks awful! But he was satisfied with his outing, which set the stage for a 10-7 Twins victory, and for good reason. Obviously, the results didn’t matter. And while Santana gave up a few hard hits, he threw...5412Thu, 09 Mar 2017 22:04:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/live-from-chs-fieldit39s-a-world-premiere-r5411/The show is divided up into nine “scenes” (or shall we call them “innings”) scattered throughout the ballpark, each with their own story to tell: in one, an Irish and Latino vendor argue about the profitability of selling beer versus churros; in another, the owner of the team (and newspaper publis...5411Thu, 09 Mar 2017 20:45:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/report-from-the-fort-wbc-warmup-r5407/* The starting pitcher’s description of his opposing lineup was intentionally hyperbolic, but not too much of a stretch. The American WBC roster features plenty of offensive firepower, and had all its starters on display tonight. When the bottom third of your order consists of Daniel Murphy, Andre...5407Thu, 09 Mar 2017 03:21:00 +0000
