Twins

Minnesota expected Randy Dobnak to provide rotational depth this season, but his lingering finger issues led him to the 60-day IL. What will be the roster repercussions from Dobnak’s injury?

The Twins changed course at the hot corner in a major way earlier this month when they traded away Josh Donaldson and the last two years of his contract, bringing back Gio Urshela from New York in the deal.

Urshela figures to step in as Minnesota's primary third baseman, for now, but he may need to fend off the advances of several players and prospects to stay there.

The Minnesota Twins were away today playing the Boston Red Sox across town at JetBlue Park. After an exciting morning highlighted by Carlos Correa’s introductory press conference, it was time to focus on the minor league side of things.

Fort Myers, FL - The Minnesota Twins started their morning in Fort Myers by settling into an auditorium in the Academy. LaTroy Hawkins, Rod Carew, Royce Lewis, and a host of media were present. Scott Boras entered, then did Minnesota’s front office and other dignitaries. Everyone was there for the man of the hour, Carlos Correa. As he put on that #4 jersey, it became official; he’s a Minnesota Twin.

When I sat down with Rena a few weeks ago, the conversation was so natural; it was like two friends who had known each other our whole lives. Not only did we have baseball in common, but also our paths to loving the game were similar—both late bloomers in love with the game, solid and passionate just the same.

Carlos Correa will impact the Twins in many ways, but one of his most significant impacts may come on the defensive side of the ball. Does Correa’s addition mean Minnesota has baseball’s best up-the-middle defense?

The Twins have current and future question marks at a lot of different positions. Second base is not one of them. 

Converted shortstop Jorge Polanco emerged as a star at second last year, and the organization has an abundance of depth behind him – both established big-leaguers and upcoming prospects.

Fort Myers, FL - Today was a big day for the Minnesota Twins down in Fort Myers. They officially announced Carlos Correa signing the largest contract for an infielder in MLB history. A game against the defending World Series champion Atlanta Braves was also on tap.

Last week may have been the craziest in organization history for the Minnesota Twins. There was expected pandemonium coming out of the lockout, and Derek Falvey delivered. In his past and present moves, he continues to display flexibility in roster construction. It bodes well for the Twins' chances.

First base is a position in transition for the Twins. It's clear they view Alex Kirilloff as their future there, but for now, Miguel Sanó still stands in the way with one year left under contract. 

How will things play out?

The arbitration deadline for players and their teams to exchange offers is Tuesday, and the Twins have a handful of players who are arbitration eligible. This article will review this process and the Twins who are eligible for arbitration.

The Minnesota Twins announced that they have claimed right-handed pitcher Jhon Romero from the Washington Nationals. To make room, righty Randy Dobnak has been placed on the 60-Day Injured List.
