I’m gonna start this piece with some real talk, because I think it’s important to be very clear about a few things. Wednesday’s news that the Pohlad family was taking the Twins off the market in favor of taking on minority investors was a gut punch. If you are feeling a certain way, I...18972Thu, 14 Aug 2025 22:10:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/could-pohlad-family-not-selling-minnesota-twins-be-an-inflection-point-toward-gulp-relocation-r18967/In September 2023, 46,889 fans gathered at their favorite ballpark to watch their team. The team won in an otherwise lost season, though some of the younger stars shined, while their elite closer finished the game.  Nobody left right after the final pitch, however, because the moment marked...18967Thu, 14 Aug 2025 17:05:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/be-like-mke-what-can-minnesota-twins-learn-from-the-mighty-brewers-r18969/Admittedly, I was excited about Minnesota electing to undertake a massive roster reconstruction at the 2025 MLB trade deadline, parting ways with 11 players from its 26-man roster. Yes, it would have been nice to watch the Carlos Correa-led collective demonstrate resiliency, pick themselves up b...18969Thu, 14 Aug 2025 13:07:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/is-this-the-end-of-the-5050-catcher-split-in-minnesota-r18954/For nearly three years, the Twins have defied one of baseball’s most common trends. They have relied on just two catchers, at a time when depth at the position is critical and injuries often force constant roster shuffling. Minnesota built its game plan around a precise 50/50 timeshare between R...18954Thu, 14 Aug 2025 11:30:02 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-4-yankees-1-snarling-and-hurling-r18971/Box Score Starting Pitcher: Joe Ryan - 6 2/3 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 2 BB, 7 K, 1 HR (102 pitches, 63 strikes) Home Runs: N/A Top 3 WPA: Ryan (.220), Byron Buxton (.171), Kody Clemens (.128) Win Probability Chart (via FanGraphs)  Neither rain (a storm that delayed the game by almost two...18971Thu, 14 Aug 2025 04:11:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/like-it-or-not-pohlads-staying-put-means-stability-for-twins-leadership-r18968/When the Pohlad family confirmed that they will remain the principal owners of the Minnesota Twins, it didn’t just end speculation about the franchise’s sale. It also sent a strong signal about the immediate future of the team’s leadership structure—one that has been remarkably consistent, even...18968Wed, 13 Aug 2025 20:21:33 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/downshifting-to-short-relief-could-unlock-the-big-league-futures-of-two-rookie-twins-hurlers-r18935/The mass exodus of the Twins' relief corps has left the team with a decimated bullpen for both the short and long term. We’ve already seen them begin to scour the waiver wire for interesting arms, and several spots have been filled by veteran options who are unlikely to develop into much beyond...18935Wed, 13 Aug 2025 17:04:01 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/news-pohlad-family-will-remain-principal-owners-of-twins-with-new-limited-partners-coming-aboard-r18966/  In a move sure to bring huge, largely negative reaction from Twins Territory, the Pohlad family will remain principal owners of the team, they announced via the team's official channels Wednesday morning. There will be new limited partners (presumably, sources of new capital who will rece...18966Wed, 13 Aug 2025 14:59:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/how-new-pitching-prospect-mick-abel-can-be-minnesota-twins-next-joe-ryan-r18963/When the Twins acquired Joe Ryan in the Nelson Cruz trade, he was an overlooked arm in the Tampa Bay Rays system. His minor league numbers were strong, but he was blocked from breaking into a rotation stacked with established big-league arms. The Rays moved him, and the Twins reaped the rewards....18963Wed, 13 Aug 2025 11:58:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/yankees-9-twins-1-carlos-rod%C3%B3n-more-yankees-homers-crush-twins-underfoot-r18964/Box Score SP: Travis Adams 2.1 IP, 4 H, 4 ER, 4 BB, 2 K (70 pitches, 36 strikes (51%)) Home Runs: N/A Bottom 3 WPA: Adams (-.356), Luke Keaschall (-.101), Kody Clemens (-.061) Win Probability Chart (via FanGraphs)    Travis Adams took the mound at Yankee Stadium for his second...18964Wed, 13 Aug 2025 02:06:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/right-handed-luis-arraez-jacob-wilson-with-better-plate-discipline-luke-keaschall-is-special-and-perhaps-unique-r18961/Heading into the 2023 MLB Draft, there was rampant speculation about where Grand Canyon University shortstop Jacob Wilson would land. Most mock drafts had the contact-oriented right-handed bat landing anywhere from pick No. 5 (held by the Minnesota Twins) through No. 20. Ultimately, he was selec...18961Tue, 12 Aug 2025 22:22:37 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/even-with-byron-buxton-back-minnesota-twins-should-bat-luke-keaschall-atop-the-batting-order-r18956/Who is writing these lineups? I felt like I was shouting at the sky for a long time for this regime to hit Byron Buxton leadoff and to stop trying to reinvent baseball. It’s simple: take your best on-base guy and/or the guy who creates the most chaos, and slot him into the leadoff spot. Maybe I...18956Tue, 12 Aug 2025 18:35:02 +0000
