With Opening Day a week away, the Twins are sharing their plans for welcoming fans back to baseball.
In the mere three weeks since the end of the lockout, no major league team has altered its outlook more than the Minnesota Twins.
The Minnesota Twins signed veteran right-hander Chris Archer to a one-year contract Monday, a potential boost for their rotation with a two-time All-Star who's coming off an injury-ruined season.
The story of Twins' spring training so far has been star free agent signing Carlos Correa.
The Twins hope their new superstar can help them get back to playoff baseball.
The team announced a three-year contract with the 27-year-old shortstop.
Though his deal has not yet been officially announced, superstar shortstop Carlos Correa has reported to spring training with the Minnesota Twins.
Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve officially learned that he'd have a new double play partner during a late-night phone call with Carlos Correa himself.
If you'd like to see the Twins' prize free agent in person, there are still plenty of tickets – at plenty of price points – for the team's Opening Day matchup with the Seattle Mariners at Target Field.
Smith pitched in 50 combined games last season for Houston and Seattle, posting a 4.99 ERA in 39 2/3 innings.
At roughly $105 million over three years, the Twins' reported deal with Carlos Correa is the biggest free agency signing in franchise history, and an unusual feeling for long-suffering Twins fans.
The move ends Correa's seven-season tenure with the Houston Astros. He will earn $35.1 million annually under the deal and can opt out after the 2022 and 2023 seasons to become a free agent again.
Royce Lewis joked that he wanted to hit four home runs in his first game in more than two years. He also hoped for several opportunities to make defensive plays. One out of two goals isn't bad.
The Twins and Red Sox played the sport's first spring training game of the year, with three more in Arizona on the calendar Thursday before everyone else opens Friday.
Minnesota Twins fans, rejoice: baseball is just around the corner.
Sonny Gray needed a few more steps than normal to get through his first workout of spring training with his new team.
"Since last night, that chapter is done," Sánchez said through a team translator. "It's in the past."
The New York Yankees have acquired former AL MVP Josh Donaldson and shortstop Isiah Kiner-Falefa from the Minnesota Twins on Sunday night for catcher Gary Sánchez and third baseman Gio Urshela.
After bolstering their infield, the Twins announced Sunday they've added to their pitching rotation with the acquisition of Sonny Gray.
Baseball fans can breathe a sigh of relief. The Major League Baseball lockout has ended, and the Minnesota Twins will be back on the field this summer.
As the Major League Baseball lockout continues, there's concern among fans and businesses about losing games.
David Ortiz was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in his first turn on the ballot, while steroid-tainted stars Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens were denied entry to Cooperstown in their final year under consideration by the Baseball Writers' Association of America.
The Minnesota Twins on Thursday announced that Ron Gardenhire, Dan Gladden and César Tovar will be inducted into the club's Hall of Fame.
The Twins announced Wednesday that they'll add Kaat's 36 to their wall of retired numbers during a pregame ceremony at Target Field on July 16.
The Minnesota Wild may have lost Saturday's NHL Winter Classic against the St. Louis Blues, but the game was a big win for Target Field and nearby businesses.
