Los Angeles of Anaheim &#x2013; This is usually where I make of fun of the city and type all the information I know about it. I apologize but I can&#x2019;t this time&#x2026; I don&#x2019;t know where Los Angeles of Anaheim is.

In his eyes, he was nitpicking, failing to attack the strike zone. His manager believed it was possible he was &#x201C;overthrowing&#x201D;. Both may be true but there is another issue at play and that is the notion that Pres...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5651</guid><pubDate>Thu, 01 Jun 2017 05:28:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Trio Spurs Minnesota's Defensive Turnaround</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/trio-spurs-minnesota39s-defensive-turnaround-r5646/</link><description>Byron Buxton, CF
Buxton was known for his defensive wizardry while moving through the prospect rankings. While his bat still hasn't lived up to the hype, he might be the best defensive center fielder in baseball. Fans might feel like this is a stretch but baseball's new defensive metrics help to m...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5646</guid><pubDate>Wed, 31 May 2017 02:49:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins MLB Draft Preview: Royce Lewis, SS/OF</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-mlb-draft-preview-royce-lewis-ssof-r5645/</link><description>Who Is He?
Hailing from JSerra Catholic High School in San Juan Capistrano, CA, Lewis is a lean and athletic specimen at 6-foot-2 and 190 lbs. He played third base as an underclassman before sliding to shortstop last summer to replace a departing senior. His ability to stick there will define his...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5645</guid><pubDate>Wed, 31 May 2017 01:58:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Eight Weeks In: Twins Trends And Tidbits</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/eight-weeks-in-twins-trends-and-tidbits-r5643/</link><description>Bullpen Blowout
Yep, that was a spectacular implosion from the Twins relief unit in front of the home crowd. Ryan Pressly, Craig Breslow, Matt Belisle and one-day call-up Drew Rucinski combined to remarkably allow 14 runs &#x2013; all earned &#x2013; on 13 hits and three walks while recording six outs. It came...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5643</guid><pubDate>Tue, 30 May 2017 01:16:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gleeman & The Geek, Ep 313: State of the Central]]></title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/gleeman-amp-the-geek-ep-313-state-of-the-central-r5641/</link><description>http://traffic.libsyn.com/gleemangeek/GATG_052817_FINAL.mp3?dest-id=74590</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5641</guid><pubDate>Mon, 29 May 2017 13:19:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Game Thread: Twins v Astros, 5/29 @ 1:10pm CT</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/game-thread-twins-v-astros-529-110pm-ct-r5640/</link><description>1. Wayzata &#x2013; So many people head to the lake on Memorial Day weekend. Lake Minnetonka may be one of the busiest in the state because it is close to a major population center and it is the ninth largest lake in Minnesota. On the north shore lies Wayzata, a destination for the well compensated.

When you have two guys producing at levels this high above average (Santana has a 230 ERA+ and Sano has a 176 OPS+), you can afford to have a couple of holes on your roster, but the fact rem...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5636</guid><pubDate>Sat, 27 May 2017 00:16:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Game Thread: Twins v Rays, 5/26 @ 7:10pm CT</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/game-thread-twins-v-rays-526-710pm-ct-r5635/</link><description>1. Grand Marais &#x2013; In the northeast part of Minnesota, that pointy part, the part that looks like the carrot on the snowman, is the city of Grand Marais. Grand Marais in Ojibwe means, &#x201C;Stop go back&#x2026; there is nothing else out there.&#x201D; According to the brochures&#x2026; the land surrounding Grand Marais slop...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5635</guid><pubDate>Fri, 26 May 2017 11:30:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Miguel Sano Could Really Make This Work</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/miguel-sano-could-really-make-this-work-r5631/</link><description>There are a couple of different scenarios. He's easily defined as a three-true -outcomes (the hits that aren't dependent on defense: strikeout, walk, or home run) player. Sano also is flirting with sustainability when it comes to BABIP (batting average on balls in play) from which home runs are ex...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5631</guid><pubDate>Fri, 26 May 2017 02:13:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>St Paul Saints &#x2013; Let the Fun Begin</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/st-paul-saints-%E2%80%93-let-the-fun-begin-r5632/</link><description>The first game of the series used a formulas that the Saints hope will work all year: solid pitching + longball = win. Starter Mark Hamburger pitched 8.1 strong innings allowing only two unearned runs and striking out eight. Tony Thomas and Nate Hanson both sent a pitch over the fence to provide a...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5632</guid><pubDate>Thu, 25 May 2017 21:49:00 +0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
