Week One Notes

One week into the season. After one game has been rained out, our record is 2-4. We played at Toronto and New York. Thankfully we have gotten those out of the way now. Those are not two easy places to play, in fact they have been the hardest for the Twins to play at in recent memory. We will now play against Oakland, Kansas City, Tampa Bay, and Baltimore in consecutive series. These are more managable, as I don't think these teams have the firepower that Toronto and New York have. Denard Span has gotten off to a solid start in the leadoff spot and Joe Nathan has converted both of his save opportunities, really glad to see that.

Minnesota Twins Season Starts on Friday, April 1st

The Minnesota Twins will begin the 2011 MLB Season in Toronto, Canada for a 3 game series with the Blue Jays. The MLB Season always comes fast, since it has the shortest offseason and this year is no different. The Blue Jays had some of the most powerful bats last season but played in the always tough American League East with the New York Yankees, Tampa Bay Rays, and Boston Red Sox. The Minnesota Twins will play their first home game at Target Field on Friday, April 8th.

Opening Day Approaching for Minnesota Twins

The Minnesota Twins opening day for the 2011 MLB season is quickly approaching! The season kicks off on April 1, 2011 against the Toronto Blue Jays. The 3 game series will test the Minnesota Twins after Toronto proved to be one of the best hitting teams in all of baseball. The Minnesota Twins will open up Target Field on Friday, April 8th against the Oakland Athletics. I can't wait for opening day!

Will Scott Baker or Kevin Slowey Be Traded?

It was reported last week that Scott Baker or Kevin Slowey may be moved to another team in a trade. The Twins currently have 6 guys for 5 spots as well as two nice pitching prospects in Kyle Gibson and Alex Wimmers. It was speculated that the Toronto Blue Jays are interested in Kevin Slowey, so that's something to pay attention to. The rotation currently features Carl Pavano, Brian Duensing, Francisco Liriano, and Nick Blackburn. I have always liked having an extra starter in case someone gets injured, but I guess it's up to the front office if they believe the salary is worth holding on to. It's something to pay attention to.

Toronto Blue Jays topple Minnesota Twins, Take 2 of 3

The Minnesota Twins are in a slump. The Toronto Blue Jays took 2 of 3 from the Twins and hit too many home runs that I don't even want to count. The Minnesota Twins will now travel to the Detroit Tigers in a big AL Central showdown. Minnesota desperately needs to get in a groove and figure out their pitching problems. The lineup is finally healthy yet we still are struggling to win games. Pitcher Cliff Lee from the Seattle Mariners appears to be heading to the New York Yankees (speculation, but still) which doesn't help the Minnesota Twins. The starting pitching staff needs to pitch better and more effectively for the Twins to make a run. For Minnesota Twins tickets visit Ticket King.
