Former Minnesota Twins favorites Jack Morris and Jim Thome will be inducted into the National Baseball Hall Of Fame in August, and the Twins have created fun promotional nights at Target Field to celebrate.
One of the things that came out of Tuesday nights MLB All Star game was the fantastic news that the American League Batting Title would be named after one of the all-time great Minnesota Twins.
It is still only July, but August is right around the corner and the Minnesota Twins keep losing more games then they are winning. Yesterday we saw Twins closer, Glen Perkins blow his second save since the All-Star break. Before the break, Perkins was a perfect 28-for-28 in save chances.
Brian Dozier has been on quite a roll as of late, hitting two walk-off home runs this week alone. That, however, wasn't enough for the more than deserving Minnesota Twin's second baseman to get on the American League All Star team. Today, Dozier got the news he should've already received.
The MLB All Star game is next week and currently the only Minnesota Twin on the roster is closing pitcher Glen Perkins. Twins second baseman Brian Dozier was snubbed throughout the All Star selection process but if you act now, you can vote him onto the team.
When I was a little boy, I remember my Grandpa Hiram had tumbler glasses that featured pictures of 1965 Minnesota Twins players. He would tell me about team and how they fell just short of winning the World Series, falling to the Dodgers. That's why I found this announcement from the Minnesota Twins to be so cool.
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota Twins have selected left-handed pitcher Tyler Jay from the University of Illinois in the first round of the 2015 first-year player draft.
