Trout is by no means the runaway candidate that Harper is, but he has a good shot at capturing his second straight MVP. He's hitting .292/.393/.572 and his next home run (No. 37) will surp...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">4157</guid><pubDate>Thu, 17 Sep 2015 02:41:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins Minor League Report (9/16): Game Ones!</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-minor-league-report-916-game-ones33-r4158/</link><description>CHATTANOOGA CHATTER
Chattanooga 1, Biloxi 7 (LOOKOUTS TRAIL SERIES 0-1)
Box Score
The Lookouts scored the first run of the series in the third inning, but things quickly went south with Biloxi scoring the next four times they came to the plate.
After Stuart Turner drew a leadoff walk in the third...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">4158</guid><pubDate>Thu, 17 Sep 2015 02:01:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Eduardo Escobar Playing Key Role In Twins' Playoff Push</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/eduardo-escobar-playing-key-role-in-twins39-playoff-push-r4155/</link><description>When the Twins acquired Escobar in the Francisco Liriano trade in 2012, the response was overwhelmingly m&#x2019;eh. Baseball America&#x2019;s Matt Eddy noted that while scouts loved his defensive talents, he had &#x201C;farther to go with the bat&#x201D;.

He lasted three innings, and gave up three runs. Of course, that still meant that the Twins needed to rely on the back of their bullpen for those middle innings, which further exacerbates the decision. AJ Achter only gave up one-run in his mop-up role.

More than most, baseball is a sport that is resistant to change. The difficulty of achieving a postseason berth at the end of a 162-game marathon was one of MLB's differentiators, with the NFL sending 12 teams to...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">4153</guid><pubDate>Wed, 16 Sep 2015 04:40:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>No Juice Podcast #69:  Live With Lavelle</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/no-juice-podcast-69-live-with-lavelle-r4152/</link><description>Other topics include:

Chattanooga 4, Montgomery 1
Box Score
David Hurlbut was on the mound for the Lookouts in this pivotal contest and he found himself in trouble early. He gave up a very long home run in the second inning and this was followed by two more hits to leave runners on the corners with...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">4151</guid><pubDate>Tue, 15 Sep 2015 03:06:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Vikings-49ers Preview: Ready for Some Football?!</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/vikings-49ers-preview-ready-for-some-football33-r4148/</link><description>The Vikings travel to the &#x201C;city by the bay&#x201D; for the Monday Night Football opening weekend nightcap. They play a team that is not your grandfather&#x2019;s, your father&#x2019;s or even your 49ers, as the team has gone through a major renovation since last season.

Ace Justin Verlander, who had just recently returned to the rotation, was masterful. Meanwhile, the Tigers chased Ervin Santana after just four innings. As a result, the Tigers entered the 9th inning with a 6-1 lead.
