Twins News

The Minnesota Twins' offense exploded for a season-high 16 runs in a thrilling 16-8 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks, showcasing a balanced attack that has seen them score five or more runs in four straight games. Byron Buxton was the star of the night, launching a grand slam during a jaw-dropping 10-run fifth inning that put the game out of reach early. However, the Twins' pitching woes deepened with Mick Abel's latest setback in his recovery from elbow injury, leaving an already thin rotation in a precarious position. With trade rumors heating up, former MLB GM Jim Bowden suggests the Twins could be aggressive as the deadline approaches, hinting that significant moves may be on the horizon to bolster their playoff push.
