He’s the biggest loser in all of this. They’re totally wasting him.
Nobody could have managed this team after the blood letting at the trade deadline.
That is so stupid. Regardless of what you think of Rocco, 99% of that giant mess is very much not on him.
In 1969, Rod Carew and Cesar Tovar stole five bases in one inning. Both stole home.

Tough times for all us Twins fans.

Polanco is having himself a nice playoff run.
Six of Polanco's first seven hits this postseason drove in runs. He had the game-ending single in the 15th inning of Friday's Division Series clincher against Detroit and went 2 for 4 with two RBIs in Seattle's 3-1 opening ALCS win. Polanco's two previous home runs this October both came off Detroit's Tarik Skubal, the reigning AL Cy Young Award winner.

With an emphasis on details and fundamentals, it shouldn’t come as a surprise the Minnesota Twins are interviewing former “piranha” Nick Punto as part of their manager search.
Multiple team sources confirmed to The Athletic on Wednesday that the Twins were granted permission by the San Diego Padres to interview Punto, who returned to the big leagues during the 2025 season as a coach for San Diego’s major-league staff, working with the team’s infielders among other duties. Punto had previously coached at Santa Margarita Catholic (Calif.) High since 2023. He managed in Major League Baseball’s Prospect Development Pipeline League in 2021.
