Twins may be a last place team in the AL Central, but they can still hit minor league pitching
Posted on 17 Jul 2012 by Brendan Keelan.
Both the Orioles and the Twins came into this game, the opener of the last series between these two teams this season, with streaks. The Twins, who just suffered a sweep against the Athletics, were on a five game losing streak losing seven of their last eight. On the other side Baltimore was 7-0 versus Minnesota this season, but both these streaks came to an end as the Twins punished the O's by...

No no hitter for Weaver, but Twins find a Diamond in the rough
Posted on 9 May 2012 by Bill Mahoney.
Come on, how many of you thought that Jered Weaver would no-hit the Twins…again? You had to be feeling a little more anxious after Weaver retired the first 6 batters. The balloon was deflated after Weaver walked Trevor Pfouffe to open the 3rd. He still had a no hitter going. At least until the next batter Eric Komatsu singled. Johnny Vander Meer can rest in peace for another couple weeks...

Weaving a no hitter, Jered leaves the Twins in stitches
Posted on 3 May 2012 by Bill Mahoney.
Jered Weaver threw a no hitter at the Minnesota Twins. Jered Weaver is a local kid, who should be a poster child for guys who want to stay home and not chase the almighty dollar. Chris Ianetta was correct in saying that Weaver has the stuff to throw a no no every time he takes the mound. It was nice to see the huge smile on Ervin Santana's face as he watched his friend throw the Halos 2nd n...

Williams & Hunter prove to be double trouble for the Twins
Posted on 2 May 2012 by Bill Mahoney.
I know I was off my game in April, but the month has changed and I'll make sure to be more consistent. April is now over, so it's time for the real Angels to stand up. Facing arguably the worst team in baseball, the Minnesota Twins, the Angels are doing just that. Thank goodness they have Torii Hunter in the lineup. Through the first 2 games against his old team Hunter is 4-6 with 2 home runs, ...

Twins End Losing Streak And Welcome Back Morneau
Posted on 11 Aug 2011 by Jonathan Fawkes.
On the heels of a 6 game losing streak during a disappointing injury riddled season, the Twins were in need of a boost. Nick Blackburn out dueled Jon Lester and the Twins scored 3 in the ninth after giving up their lead like they had in the first two games against Boston. Jim Thome did not hit HR number 599, but he did deliver the game winning RBI double to put the Twins ahead for good. J...

For a season recap check out my previous article which illustrates how injuries have plagued the Twins 2011 season. I believe that the Twins will ultimately be involved in another close race in the AL Ce...
