Minnesota Twins Top 10 Prospects

Original post from North Dakota Twins Fan ~~~~~~~~~~ The MLB Draft takes place next week and the Twins hope to be able to take some difference makers with the five picks they have in the first couple of rounds. With the number two pick, the Twins should be getting a player that will jump straight into the top 5 of the list below.   It's great to see where the organization is sitting before they enter the draft. A team's future is decided by the players they select in the draft and a team can be

Revenge of Moneyball, Series Recap, and Other Notes

Originally posted at k-bro's baseball blog   A SWEEP! A real, honest to goodness, three-game sweep! A fun come-from-behind win! An even funner walk-off win! And a strong-pitching-performance win! Yay, winning!   http://minnesota.twins.mlb.com/min/images/history/y2010/120x120_logo_1987_m.jpg And all these wins came with the classic "M" caps. So you know that we'll be seeing more of them.

2012 Day-by-Day - May 29 & 30

Due to the length of last night's game, I did not get home until past midnight and was unable to do the day-by-day, so here is the 2 day edition   Hitter of the Day(s): Chris Parmelee - 1B - ROC - AAA (Last 2 Days): 5-7 2 HR (3), 2B (2), 7 RBI, 4 R, 2 BB   Pitcher of the Day: Francisco Liriano: 6 IP, 3 H, 0 ER, 2 BB, 9 SO. After an underwhelming performance in the bullpen, Liriano shocks everyone and puts up a 2010-esque game with some dominant stuff. Was it a flash in the pan? Was it the p

SI's "To Cheat Or Not To Cheat" story on Twins pitcher Dan Naulty

The June 4, 2012 edition of Sports Illustrated had a story by Tom Verducci where he attempts to document... well, he's a better writer than I'll ever be, so let's let him tell you...   “This is a story about the real cost of steroids in baseball -- not the broken records, not the litigation, not the talk-show drone about the elite players who juiced and how to weigh their Hall of Fame candidacy. This is a story about the hundreds, even thousands, of anonymous ballplayers whose careers and lives

Profiles of the Top 22 Pitchers for the 2012 MLB Draft: Walker Weickel

Originally published at The Tenth Inning Stretch ----       With the Twins having a severe need for pitching in the organization as well as six picks among the top 100, it is certain that more than one of those picks (and probably the second overall pick) will be used to draft a pitcher. To this respect, I am presenting profiles of the top 22 pitching prospects for the 2012 MLB draft.   I will be presenting these alphabetically, and at the end I will rank them.

Potential

​Every year I look at the Twins and say, "they have potential." I don't believe that I'm alone in this either. This season I felt that Pavano could potentially be a workhorse with an era around 3.90 and play the part of a veteran leader. Baker would finally be over his arm issues and be somewhat of an ace. Liriano would lighten up and dominate again. Blackburn would be able to be average and hold down a spot in the rotation. Hendriks would win a job over marquis and look rather steady in the rot

Tuesday's Trip through the Minors

Less than a week ago, the thought of pitching at Target Field had to be far from the mind of Cole DeVries. But on Tuesday evening, DeVries found himself making his home debut in front of a crowd full of family and friends. It can be nerve racking to pitch in front of the home crowd for the first time and it had to be even harder for the Minnesota native to be throwing so close to where he grew up.   Throughout the contest, DeVries worked himself into some jams by walking batters but he always s
