MINNEAPOLIS – They were proud of the effort and proud of the fight, but it’s September, and it’s hard to take much solace in moral victories. The Twins rallied from multiple deficits on Wednesday night before falling, 11-6, in 12 innings to the Tigers in a game they appeared to

MINNEAPOLIS -- Joe Ryan’s return to the Twins’ rotation could come sooner than anticipated. Following Ryan’s three-inning rehab start with Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday night, manager Derek Shelton said Wednesday afternoon that it’s at least under consideration that Ryan could start on the team’s upcoming road trip to Chicago

MINNEAPOLIS – Very little stays constant over six months of baseball. It’s rare that all facets of a team go well or poorly at once. There’s never been a team that only wins or loses one way. But one thing has been true all year for the 2026 Twins: the

MINNEAPOLIS – Joe Ryan took a positive step toward returning to the Major League roster on Tuesday night when he pitched three effective innings for Triple-A St. Paul on the road against Omaha.

MINNEAPOLIS – Sometimes all it takes is one trigger, one moment, to start a hot streak. Maybe Kody Clemens and Ryan Jeffers provided that trigger on Monday night in an 11-1 Twins win over the Tigers. With one out in the fifth inning and Luke Keaschall on second base, Clemens

MINNEAPOLIS – Facing Tigers utility man Zach McKinstry and his sub-40 mile per hour pitches in the eighth inning of the Twins’ 11-1 win on Monday night, Walker Jenkins had one thought in his mind. “Dude. Don't strike out,” Jenkins recalled.

MINNEAPOLIS -- Byron Buxton is headed to the 10-day injured list for the third time this season as the result of a right hip impingement that has bothered him since May. No timetable was set for Buxton’s return, but the Twins still hope that he will play again in 2026.

MINNEAPOLIS -- As they attempt to stay afloat in a crowded Wild Card race without their best player or their two best pitchers, the Twins can see that an opportunity they worked months for is threatening to get away from them. But they’re not conceding that it’s gone yet. Minnesota

MINNEAPOLIS – Unlike some Minor League callups, Walker Jenkins didn’t have to catch an early morning flight or endure an hours-long travel day to make it to his Major League debut. That doesn’t mean he slept well. Or at all.

The Twins will wait at least one more day to make a decision on Byron Buxton, who was removed from Tuesday night’s loss to the Athletics due to a recurrence of discomfort in his troublesome right hip. The club did not make a roster move Wednesday, prior to flying home

For a franchise with a pitching history as illustrious as the Twins, it’s hard to believe there were any pitching feats not previously accomplished. But Taj Bradley did something in the Twins' 4-2 loss on Tuesday night that it is believed no Minnesota pitcher had ever done before. Facing the
