Last week, I wrote about the two Twins players whose MLB careers lasted one game. (And thanks to BH-Baseball for sharing, in a comment below the article, about Senators one-game, one-legged pitcher Bert Shepard.) If this were earlier in the offseason, I’d make this a series (and I still might, just next offseason); as it […]

The Cleveland Guardians never look great when the season starts and somehow, they manage to win. The Detroit Tigers have loaded up on pitching to try to squeeze a postseason year out of Tarik Skubal’s walk year. The White Sox are better. The Royals stood (mostly) pat. And the Twins, yikes. Chicago White Sox Key […]

Results On the night of April 17, 2009, I was driving back home from a late shift at Walmart (my Retail Era). Though initially hearing from John Gordon that the hometown boys were down big, a comeback began brewing! Just as I pulled my 1992 Ford F-150 into the driveway, Jason Kubel completed the claw-back—and […]

And the injuries just keep piling up. While spring training stats and records do not matter, the Twins do have the worst run differential through nine games across the majors this spring. That being said, we did have some good news on the injury front. Royce Lewis’ recent MRI is clean (Bobby Nightengale at the […]

The Yankees’ team-wide hitting philosophy in the Aaron Boone Era has been plate discipline and power, and that was certainly on display this afternoon against the Twins. They scored five in the first for the second straight Grapefruit League game after drawing four walks in the frame, while Jasson Domínguez, J.C Escarra, Spencer Jones, Paul […]

At last year’s Trade Deadline, the Twins faced a reckoning. After taking the AL Central title in 2023 and experiencing their first playoff success in over two decades, they stumbled down the stretch in ’24 to a disappointing 82-80 record. Now, the bottom had fallen out. A 13-1 drubbing on July 30th at the hands […]

While surfing Baseball Reference’s Frivolities page for unusual uniform number facts, as I do, I came across a “Cup of Coffee” page, listing players who only made one appearance in the majors. Surprisingly, there are only two players who appeared in their sole MLB games as members of the Twins, both pitchers, and one is […]

Results In July of 2004, the SP trio of Brad Radke, Johan Santana, & Kyle Lohse collaborated on a feat that now seems impossible 22 years removed: Three consecutive complete game shutouts! For comparison, the Twins had 3 CG SHO’s from 2018-2025 (Jose Berrios, Joe Ryan, & Pablo Lopez). The newbie: what we need is […]

Spring briefly sprang in the Twin Cities last week, with temperatures in the mid-50s and the promise of baseball on the horizon. Naturally, as the team congregated in Florida for their first workout of Grapefruit League action, so too did the nice weather congregate in a little place called “Somewhere Else.” So, it is with […]
