They may not have the prospect pedigree or the lengthy big-league résumé, but something in their profile demands a closer look. Sometimes it's a mechanical tweak. Sometimes it's an approach change. Increasing...6448Thu, 26 Feb 2026 12:46:49 +0000https://diamondcentric.net/news-rumors/twins-daily/joe-ryan-already-playing-catch-following-weekend-injury-scare-r6443/When the Minnesota Twins scratched Joe Ryan from his scheduled start on Saturday due to lower back tightness, it was the kind of spring training update that immediately makes an entire fan base uneasy. A few days later, however, the news cycle has already shifted in a much more encouraging direc...6443Thu, 26 Feb 2026 01:33:02 +0000https://diamondcentric.net/news-rumors/twins-daily/twins-prospect-dasan-hills-full-scouting-report-r6442/With Pablo Lopez suffering a torn UCL, Joe Ryan's arbitration years looming and a team earned run average in the bottom 10 last year, the Minnesota Twins need pitching prospects like Dasan Hill to blossom. Here is a full scouting report on the southpaw who was the Twins' no. 7 prospect (per MLB....6442Wed, 25 Feb 2026 23:49:01 +0000https://diamondcentric.net/news-rumors/twins-daily/royce-lewiss-path-to-a-2026-rebound-can-he-return-to-elite-form-r6441/Very few players around the league embody both promise and frustration quite like Royce Lewis. Entering his age‑27 season in 2026, Lewis remains a tantalizing mix of elite tools and unfulfilled potential. When healthy, he has the power and athleticism to impact the game in ways not many other ma...6441Wed, 25 Feb 2026 23:10:02 +0000https://diamondcentric.net/news-rumors/twins-daily/report-from-the-fort-funderburk-opens-2-beer-fine-print-and-a-classic-quote-r6438/FORT MYERS—Starting pitching was supposed to be abundant on this Twins team, but there have been a number of starters we have yet to see in a game.

They’ve mostly added on the edges of the roster, rather than making notable upgrades. As a result, it looked as though the...6432Wed, 25 Feb 2026 18:11:01 +0000https://diamondcentric.net/news-rumors/twins-daily/twins-prospect-gabriel-gonzalez-ready-to-turn-progress-into-opportunity-r6426/Gabriel Gonzalez carries himself a little differently this spring.

After a rocky introduc...6426Wed, 25 Feb 2026 16:04:45 +0000https://diamondcentric.net/news-rumors/twins-daily/inside-the-twins-pitching-pipeline-part-1-r6403/The Twins work hard to forge organizational depth, and it goes well beyond what we see at Target Field or in St. Paul. I'm researching the Twins' depth beyond the 40-man roster, and have already taken a look at catcher, first base, second base, third base, shortstop, and outfield. Pitching...6403Wed, 25 Feb 2026 14:21:02 +0000https://diamondcentric.net/news-rumors/twins-daily/did-the-minnesota-twins-manager-hint-at-the-bullpen-hierarchy-r6416/Minnesota Twins relievers Taylor Rogers, Anthony Banda, and Cole Sands made their spring training debuts against the Baltimore Orioles. Can we draw any conclusions from the order in which they debuted? On the other side of the ball, is Luke Keaschall pegged as the everyday second baseman?

And that's nothing new. Last year, Minnesota's primary first baseman was free agent acquisition Ty France...6385Wed, 25 Feb 2026 12:36:02 +0000https://diamondcentric.net/news-rumors/twins-daily/get-ready-for-the-most-important-first-half-in-minnesota-twins-history-r6379/There's an argument to be made that the most important games the Minnesota Twins will play this decade are the ones scheduled between Opening Day and the All-Star break in 2026.
