Twins

Baserunning can be an underrated part of the game. Teams with better baserunning can score more runs and win more games, so are the Twins hurting themselves by being MLB’s worst baserunning team?

The Minnesota Twins have plenty of money to spend this offseason, and there’s some great fits that will cost a lot. How does this front office work to ensure they can land the big fish, and is there a way for them to get creative in hoping it helps?

The Twins finally locked up Carlos Correa, though it took some of the most unprecedented circumstances in history. With Correa set to be a Twin for at least six years, should we care how we got to this point?

Twins fans have had a decent amount to be excited for this year so far, particularly the surprisingly great rotation, and the majesty of watching Byron Buxton literally outpace every player in baseball. But beyond these highlights, a particular frustration for fans has been the poor hitting.

The Minnesota Twins came into Seattle and was able to take advantage of a matchup that favored their bats against Mariners starter Chris Flexen. A Buxton bomb and solid pitching brought the Twins another victory. 

Early in the season, Minnesota's defensive flaws were more evident. In SABR's updated Defensive Index rankings, some Twins have declined while others have made significant gains.

Like it or not, change is here: a pitch clock, shift ban, and bigger bases are officially coming to the game's highest level in 2023.

It’s big bat week at Twins Daily, and there’s undoubtedly no bigger bat than Joey Gallo when it comes to power potential. He had a poor 2022 season, but at just 29 years old, does a deal with the Minnesota Twins make sense?

It was the first game following the Twins extended, All-Star break. The fans are ready for the second half of the season, and so were the Twins.

At the beginning of this offseason, the Minnesota Twins paid Miguel Sano $2.75 million to simply go away. His career here ended with a whimper, and his knee injury allowed him to play just 20 games in 2022. When 2023 rolls around, where is the former top prospect going to be playing?

There’s little doubt that anything suggesting the Twins should bring Miguel Sanó will be met with eye rolls (at best) or emphatic statements that include some expletives (at worst), but at least hear me out.

Miguel Sanó was one of the best prospects in baseball; one of the most highly-touted prospects the Twins have ever had in their organization. Miguel Sanó is one of the biggest Twins disappointments in club history; a global top prospect who never lived up to his billing.

Turns out staying (relatively) healthy leads to increased production. Who knew?
