A guy that could end the dry spell of college pitchers is Missouri State RHP Jon Harris. Harris, 6’ 4, 185 pounds, has jumped up draft boards due to a strong spring that saw him go 8-1, 1.85 while striking out 113 in 97.1 innings. Harris has shown well, armed with a fastball that...3738Wed, 03 Jun 2015 02:29:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/no-juice-podcast-57-setting-the-playoff-rotation-r3735/Other topics include Terry Ryan on stats and more. Listen below, on iTunes or on Stitcher: NO JUICE PODCAST, EPISODE #57: SETTING THE PLAYOFF ROTATION --------- One day older? Actually, probably pretty similar to what you see now. There may be a replacement at short either internally (E...3735Tue, 02 Jun 2015 19:08:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-draft-preview-kyle-tucker-r3732/Who is this guy? Tucker comes from a line with a baseball pedigree as his brother Preston was a standout at the University of Florida (where Kyle is currently committed) and has been called up to the Houston Astros this season. While Preston’s power earned him the nickname “Bamm-Bamm”, his younger...3732Tue, 02 Jun 2015 05:04:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/dear-negative-twins-fan-get-over-yourself-r3730/This team is winning games and dancing in the clubhouse to fog machines. They’re playing confident, competitive baseball, and it’s fun to watch. If they don’t win the division, or the World Series, well, then that’s what’s supposed to happen. But if they improve by 15 wins from last year, that’s p...3730Tue, 02 Jun 2015 03:21:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/episode-195-you-can-rub-anything-for-luck-r3728/http://traffic.libsyn.com/gleemangeek/GATG_05312015_final2.mp33728Mon, 01 Jun 2015 03:24:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-vs-yankees-part-1-the-rise-of-the-damn-yankees-r3727/That disgust likely started in the mid-20s. The Yankees were a fairly futile franchise until they traded for Babe Ruth in 1919. Soon after, they started collecting pennants and dominated the rest of the 1920s - except for 1924 and 1925 when the Senators rose up and knocked them out of first place....3727Mon, 01 Jun 2015 02:45:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-draft-preview-10-round-twins-mock-r3726/To try to give this an as “realistic” feel as possible, I found every player’s composite ranking (the average of Perfect Game, Baseball America and MLB) and couldn’t take them unless they fell after or within 10% of the pick (with the exception of the first pick). For example, to be “eligible” for...3726Mon, 01 Jun 2015 01:44:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/possibility-of-a-six-man-rotation-for-the-twins-r3713/The Mets have three young pitchers in their rotation who need to be watched closely. Matt Harvey is in his first season back from Tommy John surgery while fellow starters Jacob deGrom and Noah Syndergaard both threw under 180 innings last year. This isn't the first time an organization has tried s...3713Sun, 31 May 2015 02:51:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-draft-preview-aiken-amp-allard-r3723/Who are these guys? The Saga of Brady Aiken is too long to spell out in these bios - and many of you know it already. Aiken attempted to kick off his 2015 season pitching for IMG Academy of March 19. Aiken, a lefty, was supposed to throw 40 pitches that day, facing a national team from Canada, in...3723Sat, 30 May 2015 22:59:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/mauer-productive-season-or-worst-season-r3710/As I recalled several key hits he’d had over the last week, I thought he was doing fine overall. It seemed to me he was delivering more often at the plate when the Twins needed it. My friend, however, thought Mauer was having his worst season ever. How could we have such different views? Maybe I’m...3710Sat, 30 May 2015 17:01:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/evaluating-the-twins-bullpen-part-1-r3699/There are two main features of the Twins’ bullpen so far in 2015: it’s bad, and it’s old. Let’s start off with the bad. Here is a rundown of how the pen is performing in a number of key categories: ERA: 4.01 (21st in MLB) FIP: 4.19 (25th in MLB) WAR: .4 (23) These numbers make it pretty clear that...3699Sat, 30 May 2015 05:42:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/twins-draft-preview-tyler-jay-r3720/Will the allure of a power left-handed arm be too much for the Twins to pass up? Who is this guy? At 6’1”, 175 lbs, Jay doesn’t have the prototypical front-line pitcher’s build, but we’re all familiar with how this can idea can be misrepresented (e.g.: Jose Berrios). This hasn’t prevented him from...3720Sat, 30 May 2015 02:13:00 +0000
