The Minnesota Twins' top prospects are performing very well. As important, several of the second-tier prospects have been able to establish themselves early. The Ft. My...1431Wed, 01 May 2013 04:02:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/twins-minor-league-report-429-the-bats-are-alive-r1427/The Twins blew a three-run lead thanks to one swing of Prince Fielder's bat and lost another one-run game. (The third time that's happened in the past five days.) Congratulations to Adam Walker, who was named MWL Player of the Week. The Milwaukee native went 8-for-21 (.381) with five home runs and...1427Tue, 30 Apr 2013 03:28:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/q-ampamp-a-with-jd-williams-r1426/Cedar Rapids Kernels outfielder JaDamion (J.D.) Williams is in his fourth season with the Minnesota Twins organization. He was drafted by the Twins in the 10th round of the 2010 amateur draft. After a very productive 2011 season at Rookie League level Elizabethton, where he hit .324, Williams hit on...1426Tue, 30 Apr 2013 03:23:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/twins-minor-league-report-428-duffey-does-it-again-r1419/It was bound to happen. The four Twins full-season minor league affiliates had all won each of the past three days. That’s a 12-0 record. On Sunday, that streak was broken as only two of the affiliates won. That said, all four games were decided by two runs or fewer. There is some very good baseball...1419Mon, 29 Apr 2013 02:06:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/rochester-red-wings-review-this-is-what-weve-been-waiting-for-r1421/After finishing an eight game home stand at 3-5, the Rochester Red Wings took the short trip east on the New York State Thruway to Syracuse to play the Chiefs (Nationals). Last season the Red Wings won just three games in Syracuse, a total they matched in their first trip to NBT Bank Stadium. T...1421Sun, 28 Apr 2013 09:24:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/twins-minor-league-report-427-broomsticks-r1417/Lots of drama today. Fortunately, the drama all ended in celebration. (Even for the Minnesota Wild.) The Twins got back to .500 this afternoon after beating the Rangers 7-2. Pedro Hernandez provided a very strong shutout-type effort (5 IP, 5 H, BB, 3 K). The bullpen continued to shine, preserving...1417Sun, 28 Apr 2013 03:11:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/my-love-for-video-games-ootp-14-r1415/When I was younger, my brothers and I loved to play video games. We took a liking to games of all kinds, but especially enjoyed playing baseball games together. Typically we wouldn’t “play” many of the games, we would simulate them. This allowed us to get in a number of seasons in a short amount of...1415Sat, 27 Apr 2013 14:25:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/twins-minor-league-report-426-walker-powers-kernels-r1414/On Friday night, the Minnesota Twins fell 4-3 to the Texas Rangers. A three-run home run off the bat of Oswaldo Arcia with two out in the bottom of the ninth accounted for all the Twins' scoring. Scott Diamond was immensely hittable and the defense failed to make a couple of plays. However, for the...1414Sat, 27 Apr 2013 05:40:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/the-twins-minors-top-25-42413-r1406/For a few years now, I have been doing a feature, pretty much on a monthly basis, which was called "Who is hot in the Minesota Twins' minors" (you can see last seasons' versions here.) This included a list of the best players in the Twins' system, based on cumulative performance year to date,...1406Fri, 26 Apr 2013 11:40:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/adopt-a-prospect-2013-phase-2-right-now-r1411/At Twins Daily, we believe that the Minnesota Twins minor leaguers deserve to be recognized. The success of Adopt-a-Prospect is evident. It provides a place on the internet where minor leaguers can be recognized for their achievement. Last week, 41 Twins minor leaguers were “Adopted” and you can lea...1411Fri, 26 Apr 2013 06:33:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/twins-minor-league-report-425-four-and-oh-r1410/On Thursday, the Minnesota Twins fell to the Texas Rangers by a score of 2-1. Vance Worley gave up two runs in five innings and the bullpen threw four scoreless innings and kept the team in it. Unfortunately, the Twins’ bats were quiet. Their lone run came on Josh Willingham’s third home run of the...1410Fri, 26 Apr 2013 05:52:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/wednesday-minor-league-report-r1408/The Minnesota Twins had the day off. So did the Cedar Rapids Kernels and the Ft. Myers Miracle. New Britain and Rochester’s games were affected by weather, nothing new during this season. So, today’s Minor League Report may not be long, but hey, there is still baseball to write about so we’re going...1408Thu, 25 Apr 2013 11:19:00 +0000
