As has been well-documented, the 2016 Minnesota Twins were a mess of a ballclub. Even when things were at their best, bad decisions (Miguel Sano in RF) were made and folks (GM Terry Ryan) were fired. But there was one—and quite literally just one—spark: a home run barrage from Brian Dozier. In 2015, Dozier had […]

Hopefully once the book is complete on the 2026 regular season for the Atlanta Braves, this will have been the last time we have to talk about the Braves suffering a sweep. They were able to avert the disaster against the Diamondbacks but as it turned out, they needed to be prepared to walk into […]
There's one major reason why the MLB postseason schedule could benefit the Twins in a big way.
The Twins’ No. 3 prospect has battled a heap of injuries throughout his time in the organization, but he has been one of the most explosive hitters in Minor League Baseball when healthy. Now back in action after a three month absence due to a thumb injury, it is only a matter of time before […]
Here's an updated look at the MLB Playoff Picture after the Minnesota Twins swept the Atlanta Braves.
Yoendrys Gomez and the rest of the Minnesota Twins' bullpen has recovered from last year's trade deadline.
The Braves’ losing skid continued Wednesday afternoon against the Twins, as they were swept for just the second time all season in a series where nothing seemed to go right. However, we did see some very encouraging things from AJ Smith-Shawver, whose final line of 4.1 innings, four earned runs, five hits, three walks, and […]

The toughest road trip of the season for the Atlanta Braves has gotten off to an incredibly inauspicious start, as the NL East-leading squad went into Minneapolis and ended up getting swept by a Minnesota Twins team just scuffling to stay alive in the crowded AL Wild Card race. Things remained deadlocked until the third […]
For the second time in as many series, the Atlanta Braves are going to have to figure out a way to not get swept. This long and winding week-long road trip has gotten off to an inauspicious start so hopefully we’ll see the bats come to life and AJ Smith-Shawver help to stop the bleeding […]

With right-hander AJ Smith-Shawver joining the roster in place of reliever Tyler Kinley, the Braves are moving to a six-man rotation for the time being. Smith-Shawver will draw the start on Wednesday against the Twins. He should be fully stretched out after tossing 95 pitches with Triple-A Gwinnett in his most recent outing. Smith-Shawver is […]
The Minnesota Twins' updated top-30 prospects list includes several pitchers from the 2026 Draft class.
Might the Twins be getting some outfield help?

Tuesday night’s loss against the Twins felt very similar to a lot of the Braves’ defeats over the past couple of weeks. The pitching performed well enough to earn a win, but backed by a flat offense, it never felt like they had much of a chance. The Braves mustered just one run on six […]
Good morning Birdland, Those two days where the Orioles held a playoff spot were pretty cool, huh? We will remember them fondly. The team has dropped back to one game out of the final wild card spot after their 3-1 loss to the Yankees on Tuesday night. The Rangers, Twins, Blue Jays, and Guardians all […]
The Twins jumped out to an early lead in the bottom of the 1st thanks to Josh Bell’s 17th homer of the year. That came with Ryan Jeffers on base to put them up 2-0. Over the following four innings Tyler Mahle and Zebby Matthews traded zeros. A couple double plays grounded into by the […]

The Minnesota Twins should seriously consider re-signing this southpaw, who has had a strong start to his Twins tenure.
The Braves are rocking with Sean Murphy at catcher and Mauricio Dubon at short against the righty Matthews for the Twins. I think they should do this more, with Jim Jarvis’ bat turning back into a pumpkin and Murphy in need of live plate appearances. This post will be updated when the Twins release their […]
