However, they are still in the Pacific time zone, so that means some late games!! For those that didn’t stay up… shame on you (just kidding!), but you missed a good game. With Scott Ullger at the helm, Carl Pavano was caught by Drew Butera, and Pavano responded with...387Sat, 05 May 2012 06:23:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/thursday-night-game-notes-r384/The Twins had a much needed day off on Thursday after being shutout in back-to-back games at the hands of the Angels including being no-hit by Jered Weaver (Who they will get to face against at Target Field in his next start). Hopefully the players were all able to get a day away from baseball in S...384Fri, 04 May 2012 05:42:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/twins-minor-league-hitter-of-the-month-april-r383/Earlier this week, I handed out the “awards” for Twins minor league relief pitcher and starting pitcher of April. In each case, I was able to profile six pitchers and there were good numbers. Today, I am going to profile five Twins minor league hitters who had solid Aprils. Unlike with the pitchers,...383Thu, 03 May 2012 05:47:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/wednesday-minor-league-daily-r380/The Twins conclude their 3 game series against the Angels tonight. Here's the link to the TwinsDaily game thread. Hopefully Liam Hendriks can right the ship for Minnesota, without Justin Morneau (who hopefully will be back for Friday's game against Seattle) and Danny Valencia (back stiffness). It wo...380Thu, 03 May 2012 03:50:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/tuesday-night-game-notes-r377/The next time someone says that the Twins (or whichever team) is wasting roster spots by signing minor league free agents and hoping, remind them of Jerome Williams’ performance against the Twins on Tuesday night in LA. Formerly one of baseball’s top prospects (12-13 years ago), Williams has been si...377Wed, 02 May 2012 04:31:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/the-diary-of-a-snapper-off-day-r376/Baseball dominates a lot of our time in Beloit, so when we have a day off, we are left without an idea of what to do. An early game yesterday followed by an off day left me with loads of free time, but no clue how to fill it. What could I do to fill a day without baseball? I woke up early to help Jh...376Wed, 02 May 2012 03:06:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/twins-minor-league-starting-pitcher-of-the-month-april-r372/Last night, I posted my choice for the Twins minor league relief pitcher of the month, Deolis Guerra. I also mentioned five other bullpen guys that deserved recognition for their strong starts. This morning, I’ll post my choice for the Twins minor league start pitcher for April.

First, I want to share with you some of the top relief pitchers in the Twins minor league system in the month of April.

Joe Mauer is getting a day off to rest his knee, which he fouled a ball off of yesterday. Today will be Mauer’s first day off this season. Yes, you read that right. One additional note: If you thought “Promotion Weekend” ha...370Tue, 01 May 2012 02:43:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/back-to-beloithousing-in-the-midwest-r368/After spring training I was relieved to know that I made a roster and was heading to Beloit, WI to play for the Snappers. Spring training is always a grind and it was tough to see some guys get cut. That is the part of the game that is the "business" and it is always in the back of your head that to...368Mon, 30 Apr 2012 02:48:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/sunday-minor-league-daily-r364/The Twins actually won a game today. It's tough to complain about too much from today's Twins performance. Jason Marquis earned the win, and picked up the 4th Twins quality start along the way. The Twins scored 4 runs in the first, 2 runs in the third and 1 in the seventh, on their way to a 7-4 vict...364Sun, 29 Apr 2012 22:23:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/saturday-night-minor-league-lights-r363/"You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball.
