Getting Healthy -- We all remember the 1-6 start to the Twins season. We were curious to see what new manager Paul Molitor was all about. Most of us were expecting more of the same but the season was just getting started so some of us... held a little optimism and we wanted to be optimistic......3636Fri, 08 May 2015 16:43:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/how-trevor-plouffe-became-a-run-producer-r3635/Yes, Mr. RBIs-Are-Overrated-Guy, RBIs are overrated and explain little toward a hitter's true abilities, plus require the players in the lineup ahead of him to get on base. Still, there are guys that fail to drive in runs for various reasons when faced with RBI opportunities. In 2014, the Twins l...3635Fri, 08 May 2015 13:28:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/warne-trevor-may-a-pleasant-surprise-r3633/May didn’t complete five innings until his third start, and didn’t pick up a win until his fifth. As August came to an end, May’s ERA sat at 10.42. September was markedly better — if still not perfect — for May, as he posted a 6.08 ERA with 29 strikeouts and eight walks in 26.2 innings. Over his f...3633Fri, 08 May 2015 08:44:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/time-to-take-twins-seriously-r3632/After starting 1-6 through on the season, and seeing plenty of misguided "the sky is falling" type comments, the Twins have turned it around big time. Winners of 11 of 16 games at home, they currently own the best home record in the America League. After being -20 early in the season in the run di...3632Fri, 08 May 2015 00:52:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/what39s-a-realistic-timeline-for-byron-buxton-r3628/Buxton's allure goes beyond the fact that he's arguably the best prospect in the game. His dynamic skill set will make him appointment viewing, because he's capable of doing amazing things on a regular basis. That's been on display at Class-AA Chattanooga over his past 10 games, during which Buxto...3628Wed, 06 May 2015 03:14:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/warne-notebook-arcia39s-replacement-buxton-heating-up-affiliate-report-r3625/Rosario, a two-time top-100 prospect according to Baseball Prospectus, was hitting just .242/.280/.370 at Rochester, leaving some to question why Aaron Hicks didn’t get the call instead due to his superior statistics. Manager Paul Molitor suggested it was not necessarily a long-term solution, whic...3625Tue, 05 May 2015 21:55:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/eddie-rosario-promoted-to-twins-arcia-placed-on-dl-r3619/The move would be somewhat surprising as Rosario has had a slow start in AAA Rochester, especially in relation to outfielder Aaron Hicks, who is hitting .289 with a 869 OPS. It's possible that the Twins want to replace Arcia’s left-handed bat in the lineup and while Hicks is a switch-hitter, he ha...3619Mon, 04 May 2015 20:01:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/game-thread-a39stwins-54-710pm-r3621/1. Oakland A's -- What a bunch of upheaval drama queens this bunch is. From year to year you never know what the roster will look like. General Manager Billy Beane just can't sit still and I think he looks nothing like Brad Pitt. They moved top prospects one after another to acquire big name playe...3621Mon, 04 May 2015 19:17:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/that39s-the-ticket-your-al-wild-card-winner-r3615/Game Most Likely To See A Twins Comeback The A’s have started this year the way they finished last year. You would think that would be a good thing for a team that made the postseason. It’s not. Oakland was 72-45 on August 9th and in first place in the AL West by four games. They finished ten game...3615Mon, 04 May 2015 18:05:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/episode-191-above-50033-r3616/http://traffic.libsyn.com/gleemangeek/GATG_05032015_fINAL.mp33616Mon, 04 May 2015 03:14:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/according-to-plan-r3614/The story of the season so far has been improved pitching. It's strange to look at the rankings for American League teams across various pitching categories and NOT see the Twins at the bottom. Out of 15 AL clubs, Minnesota is eighth in ERA and ninth in WHIP. Not great, but not abysmal, and with t...3614Mon, 04 May 2015 02:37:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/warne-notebook-injuries-ex-twins-and-affiliates-r3611/Caleb Thielbar was essentially sent down in favor of Duensing. Thielbar made six appearances spanning five innings in his stint with the Twins, striking out five and walking none while allowing three earned runs (5.40 ERA). The other, perhaps more surprising move, was sending left-handed starter T...3611Sun, 03 May 2015 01:10:00 +0000
