Twins 6, Astros 3: Two hours later…

It was a stormy night in Minneapolis and no one from Cory Provus to the players on the field thought this game was going to go a full nine innings. The field was a mess, Astros shorstop Jeremy Peña turned the field into his personal slip-n-slide, but no one, and I mean NO ONE, was […]

Brewers 3, Twins 2: Guess what happened, guess which team blew a late lead

A rookie pitcher making his second MLB start mostly stymied the Twins’ offense, and when this team gets into a bullpen battle, they’d lose to the Bad News Bears.

Is Ryan Jeffers the second-best catcher in Twins history?

One of the bright spots of the Minnesota Twins’ shaky start to the 2026 season has been the play of Ryan Jeffers.

If one were building […]
