In the Offseason Handbook (still available for free download!), the Dodgers were the first team we listed as a fit for Dozier, and our Offse...5259Wed, 21 Dec 2016 03:30:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-all-time-worst-twins-butch-huskey-r5254/Before the start of the 2000 season, the Twins were looking to add a player with DH experience.

The Twins had a young...5254Tue, 20 Dec 2016 03:30:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/gleeman-amp-the-geek-ep-289-dozier-santana-amp-twins-top-pick-r5253/http://traffic.libsyn.com/gleemangeek/Episode_289_More_Dozier_And_Top_Pick_Talk.mp35253Mon, 19 Dec 2016 04:52:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/the-brightening-future-of-the-twins-rotation-r5252/Presently, there are – by my estimation – four young pitchers in the Twins organization who figure to shape the success of the major-league rotation over the next five years. Each is either 21 or 22 years old, and potentially within a year of reaching the bigs. Let's take a look at each of them,...5252Mon, 19 Dec 2016 04:12:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-roster-projection-2017-version-10-r5250/It was a fun exercise putting together this first draft, even if there aren’t as many changes as we would think. But it is a starting point. As you read this, consider where the Twins should focus their attention the rest of the season. For this, I am going to go with a 13-hitter, 12-pitcher roste...5250Thu, 15 Dec 2016 09:10:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/game-thread-off-season-r5249/1.

For example… Buffalo, New York averages 93 inches annually while Buffalo, Minnesota averages 46 inches. I guess the point is… it could be worse. Now last week… none of that mattered...5249Thu, 15 Dec 2016 04:12:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/how-will-the-new-cba-affect-the-twins-r5248/The exact details of the renewed agreement – reached under the watch of MLB commissioner Rob Manfred (pictured above) – aren't public, but plenty of details have trickled out.

During the time period surrounding Christmas and New Year's, major league front offices go mostly silent.
