    The Minnesota Twins had a scheduled off-day on Tuesday but Phil Hughes made an appearance on Bill Smith Field over at the minor league side, throwing to an assortment of minor league hitters, including prospect Travis Harrison.

    I'm generally not one to buy into the oft-exaggerated impact of pitching and hitting coaches, nor one to advocate for someone's dismissal after such a short time on his position. But the Twins took a gamble when they hired Allen two years ago, giving their rookie manager a pitching coach with no maj...

    The Twins have made it clear that they intend to keep manager Paul Molitor around for one more try after leading his team to a record 103 losses. His coaching staff, however, may not be so safe. Neil Allen, in particular, looks like an obvious candidate for replacement.I'm generally not one to buy...

    The Minnesota Twins are unexpectedly competing this season, thanks in part to a significant improvement in preventing runs. In 2014, the pitching staff allowed an American League high 4.80 runs per game. This season they are allowing 4.06 runs per game, a 15% reduction in runs allowed. It is still...

    More information about "The Secret Behind Twins' Pitching Success"
    Since his arrival we have heard the tale of Neil Allen’s ability to convince the young pitchers to harness the power of the change-up. From 2009 to 2014, the Rays outpaced everyone by deploying the change-up 14.5% of the time. Naturally, the narrative would be that Allen would come to Minnesota and...

    More information about "Starting Rotation Remains An Important Bright Spot"
    Lost in the offensive ineptitude of the past two series has been the enduring effectiveness of the starting rotation. While the Twins have lost five of their last six contests, their starting pitchers have combined for a 3.26 ERA during that span, and have completed six or more innings in every game...

    Let's face it. The events that unfolded at Target Field this week were disheartening, demoralizing and flat-out depressing. This team had a chance to make a real statement by defending first place at home against the division's top contender and came up completely flat, scoring just three times in t...

    When Doug Mientkiewicz emerged as an early contender for the Twins' managerial job, his lack of experience served both as a point against him and a point in his favor. On the one hand, Mientkiewicz hadn't managed above Single-A, and had only been there for two years. That's not a lot of track reco...
