It is June 1st, which means we are about half way through the sports year, and should we say it has been a failure for Minnesota sports so far in 2012. We did have about a two month span were the Minnesota Timberwolves were exciting, and were selling out the Target Center, yet those times came to a crashing halt when Ricky Rubio tore his ACL...

Lets get this straight, what I am about to write is coming from a fan who is very upset. This year, which I will put it very mildly has been a disappointment. Our starting pitching has been so bad that I actually miss Boof Bonser.

Within the last 48 hours the Minnesota Twins have scored a total of 16 runs in two games. Before Wednesday nights game the Twins scored a total of six runs in the four previous games, and not to mention three of those runs came from two Josh Willingham home runs.

Few days ago I was at Hammond Stadium watching the Minnesota Twins in Spring Training. All around the league, critics are calling for the Twins to finish third in the American League Central, so I was very eager to watch this team in person and give my own opinion, and here it is.First of all the injury bug is still with this team. From Joel Zumaya, and now Scott Baker, things are starting to look

What can be said about a 99-lose season? Not much in fact. Last year was so embarrassing that long time Twins radio announcer John Gordon retired. We also lost Michael Cuddyer, Jason Kubel, and Joe Nathan who all three bolted for a fresh start in Denver, Arizona and Texas respectively. It was not all that bad this off season, the Twins did sign Ryan Doumit, Jamey Carroll, and Josh Willingham, and

Sorry ladies, he's officially off the market. After dating for a year or so, Minnesota Twins catcher Joe Mauer is taking his relationship with Madeline Bisanz to the next level. Mauer proposed over the weekend in Florida. Bisanz and Mauer both attended Cretin-Derham Hall in the Twin Cities, but hadn't been romantically involved (at least publicly) until roughly a year ago...

If you have not heard yet, the Twins have fired Bill Smith as their General Manager. This is the first time the Twins have fired either a manager, or General Manager. since 1986. This comes after the wake of a 99-lose season. The Twins have some tough decisions to make this off-season...

With the Twins falling faster then anyone could of imagined this year, some questions have risen that have the Twins doing some major changes. Some have the Twins completely gutting their roster, but one question took me by surprise, and that is to fire Gardy.

As of today the Minnesota Twins sit seven games back of division leader Detroit Tigers. Yesterday was the trade deadline for Major League Baseball, and the whole sports nation witnessed both the Tigers, and the Cleveland Indians upgrade; while the Twins are waiting patiently for their roster to get healthy.

What has gotten into to the Minnesota Twins lately? Within the past couple of weeks, they have combined to go to 7-3, and with Cleveland Indians going 3-7, which means the Twins have gained a lot of ground on the Tribe. With no Joe Mauer, Jim Thome, Joe Nathan, and a barely healthy Justin Morneau; how are the Twins winning? Is our farm teams finally producing Major League talent?
