Surely the Twins' bevy of experience against old AL Central foil Dylan Cease will help them today. Right?

Thankfully this is happening right in the middle of the peak time to hire a new front office staff and not weeks before spring training

As a Cubs fan, it would be a crime against all Minnesotans if you guys have to watch Vidal Brujan take an at-bat in 2026.

For those invested in #tankwatch, a loss today would guarantee the Twins finish with the second-worst record in the AL (and a bottom-five record across all of baseball)...

Over at one of our sister sites (Talk Sox), one of our contributing writers did a primer on how teams can still add playoff-eligible players to their major league rosters for the stretch run. Might not be super relevant to the Twins this year, but still a good reminder that teams still aren't technically done tinkering. The Trade Deadline Has Come and Gone, but the Red Sox Can Still Add to This Team - Red Sox - Talk Sox TALKSOX.COM Many fans think that after July 31, there's no way to bring in players outside the organization. It may be trickier to work something out, but there are plenty of ways to bring in players...

Over at our sister site, Talk Sox, one of our analytical writers took a crack at crafting a three-team trade proposal involving the Twins, Phillies, and Red Sox. What do you think of the proposed deal? Lotta talent leaving MN to make this happen... Crafting a 3-Team Blockbuster With the Twins to Get Red Sox Some Pitching Help - Red Sox - Talk Sox TALKSOX.COM Can the Red Sox pull a third team in to facilitate a blockbuster deal with the Twins at the trade deadline?

This would be a really big sweep prior to a very tough series with the Cubs...

Can the Twins grab the series win today?

Over at our cousin site, Fish on First, managing editor Ely Sussman put together a list of players the Marlins might deal at the deadline. Is there anyone you want the Twins to pursue? Which players Marlins are most likely to sell at trade deadline - Marlins - Fish On First FISHONFIRST.COM Unlike last summer, the Marlins won't be tearing apart their entire roster to load up on prospects, but there are still opportunities for them to cash in on redundant players and sell...

Over at our sister site, Talk Sox, one of our featured writers put together a list of trade targets for some trade deadline buyers to peruse. Any players here you want the Twins to pursue? If the Red Sox Become Sellers, Expect These Players to Be Discussed in Trade Talks - Red Sox - Talk Sox TALKSOX.COM The Red Sox are hovering around .500 and somehow still within striking distance of a postseason position. Should that change before the end of July, they have enough talent on the big...

From our sister site Talk Sox, one of our writers did a nice deep dive into the differences between fWAR and bWAR for pitchers, as well the flaws (and positives) each site's formula contains.

A huge new influx of players have been added to the Twins Players Project in recent weeks. Let's review some of the more notable entries. What is the Players Project? It's a community-driven, wiki-style project that focuses on Twins players of all stripes. It's open to all Twins Daily users and we've had contributions for current players, past players, and players who never even made the major leagues but played in the Twins farm system. Create your favorite player today! In this update, we'll be focusing on a group of players with vastly different legacies in Minnesota. All of the players here were written up by @William Malone and edited by @Brock Beauchamp, but it's important to note the incredible contributions from the entire community. The Twins Players Project is now up to nearly 170 entries thanks to everyone's hard work! Be sure to take a peek using the link above or the button below and feel free to add your favorite player! Torii Hunter is one of the best players in modern Twins history, with a long list of accolades that includes numerous team MVP and community awards, nine Gold Gloves, and five All-Star selections. He had multiple top-15 AL MVP finishes with the Twins, including a sixth-place finish in 2002. That year was the first of three consecutive AL Central titles for Hunter and the Twins, and the outfielder led the team in RBIs in both of the latter seasons, including his first career 100 RBI season in 2003. Mike Pelfrey was a risky free agent signing in 2013 following a Tommy John surgery that knocked him out for nearly all of the previous season, and injury troubles found him again in 2014, However, that year was sandwiched between two solid seasons as an innings-eater in the Twins' rotation, including a dominant ten-game stretch in 2015 when he stepped into the rotation for a suspended Ervin Santana and authored an 8-2 record and 1.89 ERA. In the three-year stretch from 2016-18, the Twins' OPS leaders were Brian Dozier, Eddie Rosario, Miguel Sanó, and Jake Cave. Do you know who ranked fifth on that list? Robbie Grossman (.771 OPS) was a bright spot on one of the worst teams in modern franchise history in 2016, eventually becoming a middle-of-the-order staple on the rapid turnaround squad in 2017. He is the only player here that is still active. Thanks again to all who have been contributing to the project — please stop by the Players Project by hitting the button below!
