Cleveland &#x2013; Cleveland tries to claim to be the birthplace of Rock and Roll but we all know that Pat Boone was the originator and he was born in Jacksonville, Florida. Cleveland had Aaron Boone and currently has Boone Logan so now Cleveland is building the Boone Hall of Fame with a big Daniel Bo...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5582</guid><pubDate>Fri, 12 May 2017 11:25:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>J.O. 2.0: Will Adjustments Pay Off For Berrios?</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/jo-20-will-adjustments-pay-off-for-berrios-r5581/</link><description>Berrios has, of course, proven his mastery of the minors beyond any shadow of doubt. That has been more true than ever in the early portion of 2017 as the right-hander has eviscerated International League lineups while registering a 1.13 ERA in six starts.
On paper, he has checked every box. If th...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5581</guid><pubDate>Fri, 12 May 2017 04:42:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>On Lack of Pitching Youth, Eddie Rosario's Progress and Other Notes</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/on-lack-of-pitching-youth-eddie-rosario39s-progress-and-other-notes-r5579/</link><description>The Rockies, who have the second-best record in the NL, have the youngest pitching staff in baseball. They have three pitchers younger than Haley ... in their rotation.
Among the numerous roster moves made the past few weeks included the additions of Nick Tepesch (28) and Drew Rucinski (28) to th...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5579</guid><pubDate>Fri, 12 May 2017 01:28:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Phil Hughes Embracing New Style</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/phil-hughes-embracing-new-style-r5578/</link><description>Hughes has never been a burner. Even at his best with the Twins in 2014, he threw his fastball just an average of 92 mph. What he always has been in Minnesota however, is a guy who issues very few free passes, and watches his strikeouts play off that notion. After setting an all-time major league...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5578</guid><pubDate>Fri, 12 May 2017 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Longest-Tenured Minnesota Twins</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/longest-tenured-minnesota-twins-r5577/</link><description>So, here you have it, a look at the 12 longest-tenured players in the Minnesota Twins organization but first, a few honorable mentions.
Honorable Mentions
November 2011 - Fernando Romero
 September 2011 - Rafael Valera, Engelb Vielma
 June 2011 Draft - Levi Michael (1st), Travis Harrison (1st supp...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5577</guid><pubDate>Thu, 11 May 2017 06:08:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins Claim LHP Adam Wilk From Mets</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-claim-lhp-adam-wilk-from-mets-r5575/</link><description>There is speculation, maybe an assumption, that he will start for the Twins on Saturday.
He made just one start for the Mets this season. He made five starts for the Mets AAA affiliate in Las Vegas where he went 2-3 with a 5.91 ERA.
Wilk is 29 years old. He made eight appearances for the Detroit T...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5575</guid><pubDate>Wed, 10 May 2017 19:39:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Reset Button May Be Pressly's Best Friend</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/reset-button-may-be-pressly39s-best-friend-r5573/</link><description>Currently, the Twins former Rule 5 selection owns a 8.74 ERA across 11.1 IP. He's surrendered three homers, and owns a 5.56 FIP. There's no way to look at those numbers and find a whole heap of positive. Looking beyond the surface a little bit though, we can see this start has the potential to be...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5573</guid><pubDate>Wed, 10 May 2017 00:15:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Game Thread: Twins @ White Sox, 5/9 - 7:10pm CT</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/game-thread-twins-white-sox-59-710pm-ct-r5572/</link><description>1. Chicago &#x2013; I have written about Chicago time and time again over the years, and I&#x2019;m running out of ideas&#x2026; but the Twins are back&#x2026; so&#x2026; I&#x2019;ll give it another shot and write something else about Chicago.

Sano is off to a torrid start at the plate and he has shown some strong defensive skills at third base. Entering play on Monday, he only trailed Mike Trout and Aaron Judge in the American League WAR standings. He's also hitting the ball with authority. According to MLB's Statcast data,...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5570</guid><pubDate>Tue, 09 May 2017 03:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins Acquire LHP Kevin Chapman For Danny Santana</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-acquire-lhp-kevin-chapman-for-danny-santana-r5568/</link><description>The Twins acknowledged the trade with a press release.
The Twins designated Santana for assignment late last week, giving them ten days to work out a trade or place him on waivers.
The 29-year-old Chapman has struggled early this season, posting a 7.71 ERA in 11.2 innings for Gwinnett, Atlanta's A...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5568</guid><pubDate>Mon, 08 May 2017 23:17:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>The Scouting Skinny: Brendan McKay</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-scouting-skinny-brendan-mckay-r5566/</link><description>McKay is an interesting case. At the beginning of the season, the preference for McKay was as a left-handed pitcher. A &#x201C;bigger Ted Lilly&#x201D; one scout called him, saying he&#x2019;d be, at worst, a &#x201C;solid #3&#x201D; for a long time. McKay, who should win his third straight John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year Aw...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5566</guid><pubDate>Mon, 08 May 2017 03:57:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gleeman & The Geek, Ep 309: Gibson's Gone, Where's Berrios?]]></title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/gleeman-amp-the-geek-ep-309-gibson39s-gone-where39s-berrios-r5565/</link><description>http://traffic.libsyn.com/gleemangeek/GTAG_050717_COMPLETE.mp3?dest-id=74590</description><guid isPermaLink="false">5565</guid><pubDate>Mon, 08 May 2017 03:53:00 +0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
