First Pitch (CT): 1:10 PMTV: Twins.TVRadio: TIBN/830 WCCO/102.9 The Wolf /Audacy AppKnow Yo’ Foe: South Side Sox Fresh off a sweep of one set of Sox, the Twins will look to do the same to a White pair this time around. Zebby Matthews is on the mound for the Twins, staying in the rotation after […]
The Minnesota Timberwolves are sitting on the couch for the Western Conference Finals for the first time since 2023 and it’s a feeling they don’t want to have again next May. The Wolves will look for ways to improve their roster throughout the offseason, especially on the trade market. ESPN senior writer Andre Snellings suggested […]
Before we start with our usual fanfare, we do want to thank the men and women who have sacrificed their lives for this country to allow us to enjoy things like Memorial Day Weekend. The week started auspiciously with Royce Lewis getting sent to St. Paul and ended with a sweep of the Red Sox. […]
The Evgeni Malkin-to-Minnesota conversation started up in speculation in January, when Sportsnet’s Nick Kypreos reported that Minnesota Wild GM Bill Guerin was “laying low in the weeds, looking to make another significant trade,” wondering whether Kirill Kaprizov could help convince Malkin to join M...
Brian Flores is now effectively subpoenaing 31 of 32 NFL teams — and the Minnesota Vikings may be the one franchise he didn’t. In the latest episode of Two Old Bloggers on the Vikings 1st & SKOL network, hosts Dave Stefano and Darren Campbell tackle the biggest story in the NFL right now: Flores’ expanding […]
The Dallas Mavericks are clearly hitting the reset button and may already have the perfect potential trade partner, the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Now that we’ve properly buried the Minnesota Timberwolves season, I think it’s safe for us to come back to the table and remember the good times. There were 25 of us who pulled up to the dinner table for Canis Pulsus to reminisce. What were the favorite on and off court memories from the season? […]
Happy Monday, everyone, and believe it or not… the last week of May. I’m not quite sure where this year is going, but somehow we are two full months into this baseball season, and unfortunately for some teams, that means it’s time to take a really long, serious look at what they plan to do […]
Plus my decision to go independent, extending Connor Prielipp, Royce Lewis in St. Paul, writing about the Wolves, and what to order at Yangtze.
The NBA released its All-NBA teams on Sunday, with the usual cast of characters leading the charge.
The conditions at Fenway Park were sloppy for Sunday’s series finale between the Red Sox and Twins. It rained at various intensities from the first pitch to the last, and while the grounds crew did an excellent job keeping the field playable, the conditions were a factor. For the Red Sox, that manifested in the […]
Based on the forecast when this holiday weekend began, it did not look like baseball would be played this Sunday afternoon. But with the rain hewing closing to drizzle than downpour, “play ball!” was called! “Tarps off”, as the kids would say. It proved to be a good development for the Minnesota Twins, who swept […]
It has been an interesting offseason for our Minnesota Vikings. There were some moves we would have like to have seen made but overall, they have done a very good job of being frugal with the wallet and not making any big signings. They did give James Pierre a 2 yr 8.25M before signing Jauan […]
First Chuck: 12:35 PM (new anthem each week!) The Tube: Twins.TV The Dial: Treasure Island Baseball Network Spies ‘R Us: Over the Monster This weekend, the Minnesota Twins are on the east coast for some Beantown baseball against the Boston Red Sox. About a week and a half ago, I was also on the east […]
The Red Sox are looking to avoid a three-game sweep at the hands of the Minnesota Twins today on a rainy s Sunday. They’ll give the ball to Sonny Gray, who probably hopes the game is postponed so he can pitch on a day that is better described by his first name rather than his […]
The Minnesota Wild have reached the point where their offseason priority is no longer subtle: they need a true No.1 center. Bill Guerin has already made it clear that he wants to improve the middle of the ice, and recent reporting has reinforced that the Wild sees center depth as a major offse...
It’s not particularly unusual when the national media overlooks the Minnesota Vikings over the spring and summer months. It happens more often than not. After all, the Vikings are not among the largest media market teams and they haven’t been league darlings either, like the Packers often have been or the Lions in more recent […]
Recap Jovani Moran had the responsibility to keep the Twins in check for the first inning in order to provide a soft landing for Brayan Bello in his bulk-pitching era. Well, today wasn’t that day: Moran allowed hits to the first three Twins batters, then a run-scoring sacrifice fly immediately after that. Despite needing all […]
The Twins have won five of their last six series after bringing home a near-heartbreaker on Saturday afternoon, 4-2 over the Boston Red Sox. It was another great early start for the Twins, who knocked around opener Jovani Moran with a two-run first, logging hits in each of their first three at-bats, and seeing RBIs […]
First Pitch: 3:10 pm CDTTV: Twins.TVRadio: TIBN / WCCO 830 / The Wolf 102.9 FM / Audacy I’m not really sure why I’m more optimistic right now about the 2026 Twins than I have been at any point of the season so far. My best guess is that, by all accounts, the team is not as catastrophically bad […]
Hold onto your hats (and your hearts) folks. We have Jovani Moran on the mound to start, who’ll soon make way for Brayan Bello. Bello has been good in two relief/opener outings with this guardrail in place but with an overall 2-5 record, a 7.15 ERA, and a WHIP of 1.80, he feels like a […]
It seems like we’re talking about former San Francisco 49ers safety Donte Whitner more than a few of the current San Francisco 49ers players. Whitner once again called out another 49ers defensive back, this time cornerback Deommodore Lenoir, and issued a challenge: cover Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jauan Jennings. “Deommodore Lenoir talked a lot of […]
Cole Ragans will begin a rehab assignment at Omaha, writes Jaylon Thompson. He is set to start Saturday’s game for the Storm Chasers against the St. Paul Saints — the Triple-A minor-league affiliate of the Minnesota Twins. “We have him scheduled for four to five innings,” Royals manager Matt Quatraro said. “(It’s) 65 pitches, something […]
Michael McCarron is in the exact right place at the exact right time. The Minnesota Wild paid a second-rounder to acquire him at the deadline, hoping that he was the kind of big, gritty forward who could thrive in the postseason. McCarron had every motivation to go all-out to prove Bill Guerin right...
Studs Peyton Tolle (6.0 IP, 3 ER, 2 BB, 9 Ks) Look, did Tolle have a rough second inning? For sure. But this was a truly professional outing for Tolle that he hunkered down and put down Twin after Twin through the remaining four frames. For a young starter, this is the growth you want […]
