After two frustrating losses to begin the series, the White Sox responded exactly how good teams are supposed to: They punched back.

The Minnesota Twins have had commitment issues when it comes to their first basemen over the last handful of years. This offseason was no different, as the Twins signed veteran slugger Josh Bell to a mercenary one-year deal. One-year pacts with veterans in the post-prime years of their career have been the norm.
The White Sox limp into the finale of this three-game set looking to avoid a sweep before finally getting a much-needed off-day. The timing couldn’t be better, because after Minnesota, the schedule turns downright cruel. Chicago’s next 12 games come against the Phillies, Braves, Dodgers, and Yankees. Every one of those clubs is above .500, […]

Minneapolis – Who doesn’t enjoy seventh-inning drama? That’s what the Minnesota Twins provided on Tuesday night to a crowd of 15,358 fans, and a whole section of 20-year-old men joining the ‘Tarps Off’ fad. The seventh inning was a universally significant marker in Minnesota’s 6-4 win over the Chicago White Sox.
Initially filled with soft-tossers, the Twins' bullpen has added high-velocity arms in season, like acquiring Lawrence from the Pirates.
The Minnesota Twins acquired right-handed reliever Justin Lawrence from the Pittsburgh Pirates for cash considerations, adding a hard-throwing veteran to a bullpen that has been one of the most inconsistent in the American League this season. Lawrence was designated for assignment by Pittsburgh last Friday and joins a Twins roster dealing with injuries to Bailey Ober, diagnosed Monday with a mild flexor strain that will sideline him from throwing for ten to fourteen days, and Kendry Rojas, w...

The White Sox have lost back-to-back games to the Twins, falling 6-4 tonight. Davis Martin fought with his command all night, unable to make it through five innings. While the offense didn’t provide, the poor pitching performance certainly was a catalyst for a tough loss. The bullpen took control in the late innings, but loading […]
The White Sox got on the board first in this game, with assistance from the Twins catcher.

Chase Meidroth hit an infield […]

Twins righty Bailey Ober recently hit the injured list with inflammation in his right elbow. A subsequent MRI revealed a mild flexor strain, general manager Jeremy Zoll told the Twins beat (via The Athletic’s Dan Hayes). The imaging did not raise concern regarding Ober’s ulnar collateral ligament, though he’s receiving a second opinion as a […]
It goes without saying that the Twins’ bullpen is in need of some juice. They have seemingly found a few strong building blocks, including Yoendrys Gomez, who has been a revelation for this team after the Twins pulled him out of thin air. Others have done enough to keep the team afloat, but the bullpen […]
Ty Langenberg didn’t think he’d be at Triple-A this early in the season. But with constant turnover on the Minnesota Twins’ major league roster due to injuries or players being DFA’d, someone has had to step up and fill the open spots left on the St. Paul Saints roster. Langenberg has been one of those someones.
Minneapolis – It was a whirlwind of a night for Minnesota Twins shortstop Tristan Gray. Four pitches into the game, he committed a fielding error on a ball that bounced off starter Joe Ryan’s glove and allowed Chicago White Sox leadoff man Sam Antonacci to reach. Fortunately for Gray and the Twins, it was only positive from there.
