He lost his hold on the closer role when the Nationals acquired Jonathan Papelbon from the Phillies in late July, despite the fact that Storen had been extremely effective, converting 29 of 31 save chan...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">4141</guid><pubDate>Mon, 14 Sep 2015 02:06:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>St. Paul Saints, Marching On</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/st-paul-saints-marching-on-r4138/</link><description>The keys to success for St. Paul were shutdown pitching and clutch offense. On the mound. Kramer Sneed continued to lead the way for the Saints earning his American Association record tying 15th victory in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Railcats. Robert Coe also continued his roll of stellar starts,...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">4138</guid><pubDate>Fri, 11 Sep 2015 22:51:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Running On Empty, But Running</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/running-on-empty-but-running-r4137/</link><description>The four most productive veterans in the lineup &#x2013; Joe Mauer, Trevor Plouffe, Torii Hunter and Brian Dozier &#x2013; look like the walking wounded. None has been put on the DL all year, but if you doubt their status, consider: NONE of them have a higher OPS since the All-Star Break than Shane Robinson.

But the scare highlights a grim reality: this organization is bereft of catching talent.
If Suzuki's injury were serious, the Twins would be forced to rely on a combination of Chris Herrmann and...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">4136</guid><pubDate>Fri, 11 Sep 2015 13:47:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Game Thread: Twins @ White Sox, 9/11 @ 7:10pm CT</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/game-thread-twins-white-sox-911-710pm-ct-r4135/</link><description>1.

On Twitter, I was being asked what the Twins would do if Suzuki needed to miss significant time.

Kernels lead series 1-0
Box Score
Cedar Rapids jumped to a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the third inning. Rafael Valera drew a leadoff walk and advanced to second on Nick Gordon's second single of the game. Edgar Corcino flew out and Nick Gordon was doubled off first bas...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">4132</guid><pubDate>Thu, 10 Sep 2015 02:11:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Long Range: The New Twins Outfield</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/long-range-the-new-twins-outfield-r4130/</link><description>Kevin Jepsen, who was awarded a save after narrowly protecting the ninth-inning lead in that game, was certainly grateful to Buxton for bailing him out. And that's a feeling that will be shared by many Twins pitchers going forward.
Run prevention has been a sizable issue for Minnesota over the pas...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">4130</guid><pubDate>Wed, 09 Sep 2015 01:45:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>WARNE: Could The Twins Be Replacing Mike Pelfrey</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/warne-could-the-twins-be-replacing-mike-pelfrey-r4131/</link><description>To be clear, the presence of Duffey is simply just that he&#x2019;s already promoted, and thus not a candidate to take Pelfrey&#x2019;s rotation spot. May is not stretched out, as he&#x2019;s worked as a reliever almost exclusively for over two months. There isn&#x2019;t time, or really a place &#x2014; short of using him during Ch...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">4131</guid><pubDate>Wed, 09 Sep 2015 00:26:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins Topple Royals; Milone, Escobar Deliver</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-topple-royals-milone-escobar-deliver-r4129/</link><description>So, let's go back to early April. You pick the date. Do you prefer to go back to Opening Day, or a week later when the team was 1-6?
Now ask yourself how you think the Twins outlook for the rest of the season would be if you knew that on Labor Day, Phil Hughes and Ricky Nolasco would both be on th...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">4129</guid><pubDate>Tue, 08 Sep 2015 07:47:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Game Thread: Twins @ Royals, 9/7 @ 7:10pm CT</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/game-thread-twins-royals-97-710pm-ct-r4127/</link><description>1. Kansas City -- Driven by Manifest Destiny and the lack of decent internet service, one billion pioneers congregated at St. Louis to travel the trails westward.
