An online community of Twins fans mourning the death of Prince Rogers Nelson.
Tomorrow afternoon, my extended family will celebrate the 90th birthday of my grandmother. A solid baseball fan, Grandma Betty is probably most famous for the “hot dog sandwiches” (wieners sliced the long way and put between slices of white bread) she’d smuggle into Metropolitan Stadium for her family. Her Fridley home has long been a […]
The Twins have acquired left-handed reliever Anthony Banda from the Dodgers in exchange for international bonus pool space. Banda was designated for assignment by the Dodgers earlier this week, essentially meaning the Twins gave the Dodgers a bit of cash to jump the waiver line. RHP Jackson Kowar, picked up off the waiver wire last […]
Spring training is coming up on every baseball fan’s docket. Teams travel to warmer weather to begin their work and preparation for the coming season, and players on the bubble hope to earn their spot on the Major League roster. To that end, the Twins on Monday announced 22 players who have received an invite […]
I touched on this in Monday’s question, but let’s get more direct. I want to know where you truly think the Twins stand among the worst division in baseball. I’ll once again reference you to FanGraphs’ playoffs odds page, which is updated after games and transactions. Here’s my ranking: If we’re using groups or tiers, […]
Results When the Twins moved to Target Field in 2010, I had to be lured outdoors like TC Bear. My entire baseball existence to that point had been under the Teflon roof. So when “the new place” opened and balls weren’t flying over fences and dramatic walk-offs weren’t happening, I felt a little uneasy. Big […]
The Twins’ surprise pivot into an aggressive selloff was the headline of a surprisingly active 2025 trade deadline. They sent out a shocking 10 players, nine of whom were on the active roster at the time of their transactions. Some of those were expected (Chris Paddack, Willi Castro, Harrison Bader, Danny Coulombe), while others came […]
With the Super Bowl last night, baseball season has officially begun! Jeremy Zoll moved quickly to make his mark on the Twins after Derek Falvey left the organization. So far, Zoll has signed Matt Bowman, Eduardo Salazar, Jackson Kowar, David Bañuelos, and, just announced today, Gio Urshela. While none of them are on the 40-man […]
Tom Pohlad wants you to believe the Twins will be able to contend in this division despite not giving the front office the resources to do so. They have a lot of talent and untapped potential, and maybe a new coaching staff can do a better job of helping them reach their ceiling, but they’re […]
No funny business. This is serious. Let’s get into it. First, the rules. This isn’t an alternate universe where players have been training for years as football players. This is the Seahawks or Patriots call today and say they need someone tomorrow. Also, for the sake of Byron Buxton, no one’s getting hurt either. Let’s […]

It has no commercials, so no sync issues! Sync issues are a pain on Movie Nights! Start the show at 7:30! You all know the plot, right? Jim Morris […]
Yesterday, MLB finally released the full rosters for the World Baseball Classic. Japan won the event in 2023 over the US when Shohei Ohtani struck out then-teammate Mike Trout in one of the most thrilling single plate appearances in recent memory. Team USA and Japan figure to be the odds-on favorites once again with the […]
Growing up in the 1990s, Twins baseball was Kirby Puckett and Kirby Puckett was Twins baseball to me. Far before I knew the meaning behind the guys running around in funny pajamas or why we waved white hankies to cheer them on, I knew Kirby Puckett. It was the name. The smile. The way he […]
Fresh off taking charge of the business aspect of Twins baseball operations of the Twins, team owner Tom Pohlad has announced a partnership with Brasher Microform, a company specializing in DNA experimentation and cloning. “It’s in our identity: Twins,” Pohlad said. “We brought back Taylor Rogers, and he’s a twin. It seemed apropos to craft […]

Results After four straight dismal seasons, Target Field had become more mausoleum than marvel. The 2015 Twins were a desperately-needed injection of competitive excitement into the fanbase. Nothing personified the upswing more than the heroics of July 10, 2015. After a furious rally from a 6-1 ninth inning deficit, Brian Dozier found himself at the […]

The Twins kicked off the week with a surprising trade of former top prospect Edouard Julien and reliever Pierson Ohl for minor leaguer Jace Kaminski, who had missed all of 2025 with Tommy John surgery. They ended the week with a bombshell announcement that POB&BO Derek Falvey and the team were parting ways. While the […]

Here’s your link for the movie! It’s from a Strange Site, but most internet security experts consider it pretty safe (when it comes to collecting your data, IMDb is worse). It has no commercials, so no sync issues! Sync issues are a pain on Movie Nights! Start the show at 7:30! I know nothing about […]
After nearly a decade running the Twins’ baseball operations and a year of managing the business side, the Twins and Derek Falvey announced they agreed to a “mutual parting of ways.” The Twins, Falvey, and owner Tom Pohlad all released statements which can be read below. It’s hard to overstate how major of a change […]
I used to be a “small Hall” guy—generally believing that the hallowed halls of Cooperstown should be reserved for “the best of the best of the best—sir!” Then I saw this in 2023… Truth be told, I wouldn’t have checked the box next to Scott Rolen’s name on the HOF ballet. But seeing his emotional […]
Once one of the most promising Twins on the roster, Edouard Julien’s time in Minnesota has come to a close. The Twins announced they traded Julien and pitching Pierson Ohl to the Colorado Rockies in exchange for right-handed pitching prospect Jace Kaminska. Julien, 26, was instrumental to the Twins’ 2023 playoff run when they finally […]
For weeks, the city of Minneapolis has been under occupation by the murderers, kidnappers, and rapists going by the moniker ICE. Two protestors, Renée Nicole Good and Alex Pretti, were openly murdered by ICE agents and smeared as aggressors by Donald Trump and his administration. Unsurprisingly, the billionaire owner of the Twins, when asked to […]
Results I’ll always remember the events of 2018’s final Minnesota Twins contest—if mainly because I happened to be moving out of an apartment that day and missed it all live. But when my dust had settled and I watched the highlights, I was as moved by what transpired as any other MN sports fan. You […]
