Coincidentally, both teams used strong starts from their pitchers and big offensive outputs to power their records back to .500. The Twins announced before today's game that they w...2525Sun, 20 Apr 2014 16:07:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/twins-minor-league-report-418-organization-goes-0-6-r2523/I remember asking Kyle Gibson several years ago what it meant to be the Twins #1 prospect. He said that it was an honor, but all being a prospect meant was that you hadn’t done anything yet. It is a great point for all to remember. Friday was the third time this season when Twins top pitching prospe...2523Sat, 19 Apr 2014 03:59:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/twins-minor-league-report-417-a-pitch-for-pino-r2521/There were four games in the Twins' farm system, and the Twins were able to play a split double header at Target Field in some record cold conditions. More impressive, they were able to win two games against the Blue Jays, a team they have been crushed by in recent years. Kyle Gibson threw eight shu...2521Fri, 18 Apr 2014 04:13:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/twins-minor-league-report-416-diamond-disappointment-r2518/Winter just does not want to go away. Much of the state of Minnesota woke up to cold and even snow on Wednesday. The weather has been difficult around the country. New Britain was weathered out. The Minnesota Twins game on Wednesday night against the Blue Jays was postponed. They will play their reg...2518Thu, 17 Apr 2014 03:28:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/the-struggles-of-scott-diamond-r2517/To say that Rochester Red Wings pitcher Scott Diamond has had a tough start to the 2014 season, would be putting it mildly. Diamond, Rochester’s opening day starter, is 0-2 on the season with an International League worst 15.58 ERA. If that large number wasn’t enough, through just nine innings pitc...2517Thu, 17 Apr 2014 01:45:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/kernels-report-who-are-these-guys-r2515/The people who pay attention to such things during professional baseball’s offseason were pretty much in agreement in their expectations for this team coming out of spring training in Fort Myers. The starting pitching should be quite improved, perhaps the best it has been in a few years. The bullpen...2515Wed, 16 Apr 2014 11:52:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/twins-minor-league-report-415-kernels-streak-ends-r2513/For the second Tuesday in a row, weather played havoc on the Twins farm system. Only half of the teams were able to get on the field and both of those teams didn't exactly like the results on the night. Some hitters continued their hot starts to the year, but the pitching seemed to be the biggest pr...2513Wed, 16 Apr 2014 04:03:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/rotation-reinforcements-waiting-in-the-red-wings-r2510/In 2013, the Minnesota Twins rotation was essentially in shambles from the get-go. Liam Hendriks started the team's fourth game of the season. Pedro Hernandez started the sixth. Those two combined with Andrew Albers, P.J. Walters and Cole DeVries to make a total of 40 starts for the Twins last y...2510Wed, 16 Apr 2014 03:43:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/rock-cats-report-20141-r2504/As of this writing, the New Britain Rock Cats sit at 4-6. It's important before reading this piece -- or really any piece related to baseball -- that we all realize that we're only 10 games (or so) into the season. Everything anyone says should be couched with the "small sample size" caveat. Still,...2504Tue, 15 Apr 2014 02:53:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/red-wings-at-ironpigs-alex-meyer-r2503/I had the opportunity to watch the Rochester Red Wings' last 3 games (the double header last night and this afternoon's game) in my back yard against the Lehigh Valley IronPigs over the weekend. My list of must-dos were to see whether Alex Meyer was as good as he was this spring, in real game sit...2503Mon, 14 Apr 2014 02:50:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/twins-minor-league-report-413-kernels-road-sweep-r2501/For the third straight game, the Minnesota Twins got a quality start, and for the third straight game, they got a win. Still, it took some late-inning dramatics, but the team goes into a Monday off-day with a .500 record (6-6). Raise your hand if you saw that coming. Just 150 games to go! The four m...2501Sun, 13 Apr 2014 21:47:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/twins-minor-league-report-412-awesome-aussie-r2500/The weather on Friday meant that the Red Wings needed to play their second double-header of the week. For the second time this week, the now 6-2 Red Wings swept a double-header. Australian James Beresford led the way, continuing to be the most consistent hitter at the start of this season.
