MINNEAPOLIS -- There are memorable wins, and then there are moments. The kind of swing that a player tells his grandkids about. The kind of game where you tell people you were there. Kody Clemens had one of those on Thursday. In a game that looked all but hopeless for

MINNEAPOLIS -- A frustrating year for Cole Sands is officially coming to an end. Sands, who has battled right elbow trouble since the end of April, will undergo arthroscopic surgery on the joint on Tuesday and will not pitch again in 2026. Sands will also receive a PRP injection. The

MINNEAPOLIS -- Healthy, but still not right. That was the verdict on Joe Ryan, who followed one of the worst starts of his career with a so-so outing on Wednesday night as the Twins lost to the Royals, 4-0, at Target Field.

MINNEAPOLIS -- Byron Buxton is headed back to the injured list. Just nine days after he was activated, Buxton has returned to the IL with what the Twins are calling a right hip impingement. The star outfielder’s right hip has been bothering him since May.

MINNEAPOLIS – For months now, it’s been a mission statement bordering on a mantra for Twins uniformed personnel: Play well enough to put pressure on the team’s front office when the Trade Deadline gets here. It appears they have done just that, and Tuesday’s come-from-behind 3-2 win over the Royals

MINNEAPOLIS – Cole Sands' incredibly frustrating year got worse on Tuesday. Sands returned to the injured list prior to the Twins’ series opener against the Royals with a right elbow strain.

MINNEAPOLIS -- A series of roster moves on Sunday morning added up to a boost and a bummer for the Twins. Minnesota activated Connor Prielipp and Cole Sands from the injured list before the series finale against the Athletics, bolstering both the starting rotation and the bullpen with useful pieces.

CLEVELAND – Less than 48 hours ago, Taylor Rogers said, “our world was crashing in apparently.” But as the Twins packed up from their last game at Progressive Field this year and headed home for a pivotal homestand, that had all changed. It’s amazing what a couple of wins can

CLEVELAND – Victor Caratini is expected to be fine after fouling a ball off his right knee on Wednesday night, but was held out of the Twins’ lineup for their series finale against the Guardians on Thursday. X-rays were negative, and the club is classifying Caratini’s injury as a “contusion.”

CLEVELAND -- With 60 games left in the season, and still nearly two weeks until the Trade Deadline, there simply is no such thing as a single must-win game. But Wednesday night came awfully close. Facing a four-game losing streak and the possibility of a second straight season hitting the

CLEVELAND – Sometimes everything lines up, and it still doesn’t come together. The Twins had their ace on the mound. They had their talisman back in the lineup. They were eager to flush their first series loss in weeks and get a critical intradivision series off to a great start.

CLEVELAND – As a huge series in the American League Central division and Wild Card races gets under way, the Twins received a huge boost to their lineup Monday. Minnesota activated Byron Buxton from the injured list after he missed two weeks due to a right hip strain. Infielder Tristan

PHILADELPHIA -- Know this: the Twins want to buy at the Trade Deadline. The front office wants to buy. Ownership wants to buy. And of course, the players in the clubhouse want them to buy. The desire is to add players, not shed them, as Minnesota looks to return to

PHILADELPHIA -- It has been a week that Tristan Peters will surely never forget. In just about every way. And frankly, if it had been just a little bit less memorable, he’d be fine with that. But as a once-in-a-lifetime stretch came to an end with his first All-Star appearance,

PHILADELPHIA -- Jac Caglianone fulfilled a childhood dream and made a solid showing, but it wasn’t enough to advance out of the first round of the 2026 T-Mobile Home Run Derby at Citizens Bank Park. But that doesn’t mean he didn’t make an impression. With his father, Jeff, pitching to

PHILADELPHIA – Four members of the Draft class of 2024 are already here, participating in All-Star Week festivities less than two years after their names were called in Fort Worth. But that may not be the most remarkable part. Because before long, they’re going to be joined by even more

MINNEAPOLIS – There’s nothing quite like Joe Ryan’s fastball. Hitters know it’s coming. They know what it’s going to do.
