Hey Twins Fans, Meet Vanimal!

Now that we’ve had a day to absorb the news of the Twins trading Ben Revere to Philadelphia, it’s time for us to get to know our newest member of the Twins MLB family, Vance Worley… aka “Vanimal.” http://knuckleballsblog.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/vance_the_vanimal_worley_by_timokreations-d478foc1-295x300.jpg (Image: timokreations)

See a fit for Skip?

I was thinking about him all last year. As a fan in birdland, Skip has seemed like a good fit for the twins for awhile. This confirms Twins are least knocking it around. What do y'all think?   http://www.stltoday.com/sports/baseball/professional/cards-end-meetings-with-more-work-to-do/article_09b4717c-79bb-528a-a5cd-851f004ba37e.html

Gleeman and the Geek Episode 71: Ben Revere For Vance Worley & Trevor May

Aaron and John talk about the Twins trading Ben Revere to the Phillies for Vance Worley and Trevor May, what it means for team's 2013 plans, how much everyone is counting on Aaron Hicks, what John and Aaron did after the last podcast, why Darrin Mastroianni suddenly has a big role, what the farm system looks like after back-to-back big trades, the Rule 5 draft, whether Justin Morneau and Josh Willingham are next up on the trading block, and John's dog's digestive system. Here are:     the

Bye, Benny

Originally posted at k-bro's baseball blog   In the span of one week, the Twins have traded two speedy centerfielders. And both times, I've had mixed feelings about the deals.     Just when Twins fans handed over the responsibilities of centerfielder, lead off hitter, and 'big brother' to the up-and-coming outfielders to Ben Revere, he was traded to the Phillies for two right-handed pitchers. And just when fans were getting past losing Denard Span, another fun-to-watch, popular player was torn a

Twins, Burton Near Agreement for a Contract Extension

According to Darren "Doogie" Wolfson (via twitter), he has learned that the Twins and the representatives for Jared Burton have reached an agreement on a contract extension. It sounds like it would before for 2013, 2014 and that there would be an option for 2015. Terms of the deal have not yet been announced. We will update them here as soon as we get them.   Last week, the Twins tendered him a contract. This is the final year of arbitration-eligibility so the contract would buy-out one year of

Does Ben Revere’s Departure Portend Justin Morneau Trade?

It was the second big trade of the offseason for the Minnesota Twins, and the second concrete indicator to the league and to fans that General Manager Terry Ryan is looking beyond 2013. Indeed, it was the second time in which a trade likely made the Twins worse for the 2013, instead of better. Which is odd, because it was a great trade. Ben Revere has plenty of value, but was not without question marks and could be replaceable as early as the second half of this year. The pitchers the Twins rec

Sacrificing Shirseys.

I drive by Target Field nearly every day. In the off-season, it looks like a brand new piece of playground equipment. The next time I go past it, it'll look broken-in.   Target Field's not Yankee stadium, but it deserves history. And what's history without a few ghosts?   Revere was a player with a future. Moving him is smart. Giving up winter dreams about his potential will still hurt.   I was as ready as I could be to lose Span. Losing Revere came as a surprise. I'm an jag-off for not getting

Revere Traded to Philly for Worley

Sources are reporting that the Minnesota Twins have traded CF Ben Revere to the Philadelphia Phillies in exchange for RHP Vance Worley and a prospect. The prospect is Trevor May.   Revere was the heir apparent for the Twins Center Field job going back to when Denard Span was dealt to the Washington Nationals for RHP Alex Meyer. He will go to the Phillies where he and Span will compete (with BJ Upton) for NL East (CF) supremacy.   Vance Worley has spent parts of the past three seasons with the

Shift In Free Agency Strategy Doesn't Favor The Minnesota Twins

The Minnesota Twins might be looking back to the good old days wistfully for a reason other than wanting to relive their decade of glory. For instance, signing free agents used to be a relatively orderly business:   Teams that needed a great pitcher would chase the best (or best remaining) pitcher, hoping to get him. One team would get him. Lather. Rinse. Repeat.   That’s oversimplifying a little, but in general, free agents would sign from the top down. In fact, free agents might wait to s

Looking Ahead: Future Pitching Rotations and a "Forgotten" Prospect

It's disappointing. I felt it coming months ago (as did many of you). Make no mistake -- I'm not fine with it by any means. But I more or less accept it (or I'm just men

What if the Twins chose not to sign a name pitcher?

There is one aspect of this off season that I don't think anybody has touched on, so I will give it a shot:   What if the Twins stand pat with pitching this off season?   An argument could be made for standing pat. The reasons for spending money have been discussed ad nauseum, lets look at some reasons not to spend:   - The Twins are expected to be at or near the bottom in the AL Central this year. If the Twins brass believe this, then spending any money on any pitcher not expected to be wit

2012 Rock Cats Memories: Throwing a Ceremonial First Pitch; Meeting Terry Ryan

 [TABLE=class: tr-caption-container] http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jgbOh8Mq8aw/UL9W-7td2cI/AAAAAAAAAfo/I262BsuGsts/s320/AW+Pitch.JPG [TD=class: tr-caption]Steely Determination [/TD] [/TABLE]  [Originally published at Twins Fan From Afar]   This past spring, when I attended the Rock Cats' annual welcome home dinner, where I was seated with (a pre-Tommy John) Alex Wimmers, I purchased $5 worth of raffle tickets and won the opportunity to throw a ceremonial first pitch before a Rock Cats game.
