Twins News

Joe Ryan showcased his skills on the national stage, contributing to the American League's 4-0 shutout victory in the All-Star Game, striking out two batters while the league's pitchers combined for an impressive 15 K's. Amidst the celebration of America's 250th birthday, Byron Buxton reiterated his commitment to the Twins, firmly shutting down any notions of waiving his no-trade clause. It's a mixed message for a team that needs to decide if it will bolster its roster as the trade deadline approaches. Despite the Twins hovering just below .500 at 48-49, the successful showing at the All-Star Game could inject some much-needed momentum into a team that is 5-2 over its last seven games, with a promising +8 run differential. Fans are left wondering if this spark can translate into a sustained push for contention.
