The team has played five games already (with four wins). Today (Tuesday), minor leaguers will need to report to Ft. Myers for the start of camp. They will undergo physicals on Wednesday, and their first official practice will on Thursd...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">2381</guid><pubDate>Tue, 04 Mar 2014 11:05:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Matt Hoffman Hopes His Slider Elevates His Career</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/matt-hoffman-hopes-his-slider-elevates-his-career-r2378/</link><description>After reaching Detroit's AAA Toledo team as a 21-year-old, Hoffman spent his third full year with them last year as a 24-year-old. But the left-handed reliever's stats showed a change. Last year, Hoffman struck out 35 batters in 35 innings. He had never come close to that rate previously. He thinks...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">2378</guid><pubDate>Mon, 03 Mar 2014 03:21:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Learning From My New Friends</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/learning-from-my-new-friends-r2376/</link><description>I walked outside to grab the mail and a little girl came whizzing by on a bike. She stopped when she saw me. I knelt down and introduced myself, "I'm AJ," I shook her hand. "Hi, I'm Olivia," she responded. She told me she was 6 years old, later I met her twin 4 year old siblings, Alexis and Ray.

Honestly, I haven't even read much lately. Not about baseball, anyway. There just isn't much going on that I'm particularly interested in. Sure, spring training has started, but they haven't even started playing spring training games, yet, so there just isn't much goin...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">2363</guid><pubDate>Tue, 25 Feb 2014 06:23:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Q&amp;A with Stephen Gonsalves]]></title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/qampampa-with-stephen-gonsalves-r2351/</link><description><![CDATA[The start of minor league camp is still about two weeks. Today, I’m happy to post the below Q&amp;A with the Twins 2013 fourth-round draft pick, left-handed pitcher Stephen Gonsalves. 
On signing, the 6'-5" lefty was assigned to the Gulf Coast League. He impressed. He gave up just one run in 14.1 in...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">2351</guid><pubDate>Thu, 20 Feb 2014 12:17:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Twins Daily Top 10 Prospects: Recap</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/twins-daily-top-10-prospects-recap-r2346/</link><description>The Twins truly might have the most talent-laded farm system in all of baseball, so ranking and profiling our selections for the Top 10 prospects over the past couple weeks has been a lot of fun.
Today, we'll take a high-level look at that list as a whole and see what it tells us about the future of...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">2346</guid><pubDate>Mon, 17 Feb 2014 04:06:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>TD Top Prospects: #2 Miguel Sano</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/td-top-prospects-2-miguel-sano-r2342/</link><description>Miguel Sano would be the #1 prospect, arguably, in about 27 of the 30 major league organizations, at least according to Baseball America. In the Minnesota Twins organization, he ranks a solid #2. I bet you can guess who will be named the Twins Daily #1 Twins Prospect tomorrow. It&#x2019;s been a long time...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">2342</guid><pubDate>Thu, 13 Feb 2014 12:54:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>TD Top Prospects: #3 Alex Meyer</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/td-top-prospects-3-alex-meyer-r2340/</link><description>The rarest and most coveted type of prospect in the Minnesota Twins'  system has been the hard-throwing, dominant starting pitcher. Shortcomings in this area have been reflected in the big-league  rotation, where a lack of front-end talent has been a primary downfall  during the club's recent stretc...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">2340</guid><pubDate>Wed, 12 Feb 2014 04:50:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>TD Top Prospects: #4 Kohl Stewart</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/td-top-prospects-4-kohl-stewart-r2337/</link><description>The 2013 Draft is going to be judged almost completely on the ascension of pitcher Kohl Stewart. That&#x2019;s as intriguing as a $4.5 million bet on a roulette ball, hopping red to black. So much reward. So much risk. So little control.  
The 100 Word Primer

When Rosario was the Twins 4th round pick in 2010 out of Puerto Rico, he spent the summer as Sano&#x2019;s teammate in the GCL. The next summer, the two put up incredible numbers at Elizabethton.

It&#x2019;s fair to say that he is excited about getting a fresh start with a new organization. The left-hander was the first-round draft pick of the Atlanta Braves in 2011 after...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">2330</guid><pubDate>Thu, 06 Feb 2014 05:09:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>TD Top Prospects: #9 Lewis Thorpe</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/td-top-prospects-9-lewis-thorpe-r2326/</link><description>A surprise top-notch Twins starting pitching prospect? Yes, please. Let's play five questions:
Who?
That&#x2019;s exactly what I said when Lewis Thorpe&#x2019;s name started popping up on national prospect lists this offseason. Shame on me -  we&#x2019;ve been tracking him here for months.
