The left-hander worked the first seven innings and gave up three runs (2 earned). Jeff Gray and Luis Perdomo each threw a scoreless inning. It was the offense in this game. In that ten-...733Tue, 07 Aug 2012 06:12:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/byron-buxton-jose-berrios-promoted-to-elizabethton-r731/In a move that is rather surprising, Twins Daily has learned the 2012 first-round draft pick Byron Buxton and supplemental first-round pick Jose (J.O.) Berrios have been promoted to short-season Elizabethton. Buxton, an 18-year-old outfielder from rural Georgia, was the #2 overall pick in this June...731Tue, 07 Aug 2012 03:53:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/sundays-minor-league-round-up-r728/Sunday was an interesting day in the world of Twins baseball. The Twins had a chance to complete a 4-game sweep in Fenway Park. Josh Willingham and Ryan Doumit both homered in the ninth to make it interesting, but the rally fell short. At one point early in the game I overheard Dick Bremer announce...728Mon, 06 Aug 2012 12:39:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/notes-from-day-3-in-beloit-r723/The weather has certainly been a factor in Beloit the first three days of this trip. The first two days, it was so hot. Temperatures hovered in the mid-90s and humidity was quite high. On Saturday, however, the weather was a little different and that crazy humidity finally burst into some impressive...723Sun, 05 Aug 2012 14:51:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/saturday-night-lights-r722/Note from Seth - Thank you to J-Dog Dungan for stepping up last night and helping with the minor league report. It was very helpful! -------------------- The Twins made their game against Boston very interesting, waiting until the last inning to uncork the big hit they had been looking for all game,...722Sun, 05 Aug 2012 12:46:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/fridays-twins-minor-league-daily-r720/Where I live, I only watch the Twins on TV when they play the Yankees, Mets or Red Sox. Last night, though I missed seeing the comeback! It was definitely great to hear that both Morneau and Carroll had 4 hits -- Morneau, especially. Let's take a look at how the affiliates performed last night. Also...720Sat, 04 Aug 2012 16:33:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/notes-from-day-2-in-beloit-r719/Day 2 in Beloit was a good day. Then again, it was a Friday and I wasn’t at work and it was a day all about baseball. How could it be bad?! In today's blog, I'll talk about the Snappers 8-1 win over Brian Buchanan and the Kane County Cougars. There are a lot of observations on players before and dur...719Sat, 04 Aug 2012 15:03:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/notes-from-day-1-in-beloit-r717/If I’m being honest, the Snappers game tonight was pretty bad for the hometown nine, at least for eight-and-a-half innings. However, in the bottom of the 9th, the Snappers bats woke up. The team had scored just one run in the first eight innings. The ninth frame started with walks to the eight and n...717Fri, 03 Aug 2012 13:23:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/thursdays-minor-league-round-up-r715/Samuel Deduno and his effective wildness (101 pitches, 50 strikes) held the Red Sox scoreless over six innings. The bullpen finished it out and the Twins offense provided 5 runs to complete their first shutout of the Red Sox in Fenway in almost 16 years. In what had been speculated for months and b...715Fri, 03 Aug 2012 03:55:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/wimmers-goes-under-the-knife-r713/An outcome that has long seemed inevitable became a reality today when it was announced that pitching prospect Alex Wimmers was slated to undergo Tommy John surgery. It's a major setback in a career that hasn't really been able to get off the starting block. The story leading up to this news is a fa...713Thu, 02 Aug 2012 22:53:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/wednesdays-twins-minor-league-daily-r710/I'll be honest -- I was a little disappointed with the trade deadline. Aside from dealing Liriano, no big moves, no small moves. But if the offers weren't there, then they weren't there. But this is certainly a tough time to be a Twins fan! If you're reading this, though, you realize that there are...710Thu, 02 Aug 2012 04:39:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/my-top-50-plus-1-twins-prospects-august-1-edition-r707/One of my favorite days of the year is the day I open my mailbox and see a cardboard box just big enough to hold the Baseball America Prospect Handbook. The first thing I do is read each of the 30 capsules about the Twins prospects. Then I proceed to read each of the other 870 reports in the book,...707Wed, 01 Aug 2012 07:39:00 +0000
