    Twins 6, Rangers 4: Dean Kremer Puts Nail in Rangers' Coffin, Twins End 2026 on High Note (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Box Score: Starting Pitcher: Dean Kremer: 7 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 0 BB, 4 K (74 Pitches, 49 Strikes, 66.2%) Home Runs: Josh Bell (21), Royce Lewis (15) Top 3 WPA: Bell (0.23), Kremer (0.22), Luke Keaschall (0.09) Win Probability Chart (Via BaseballSavant): It’s the final day of the regular season, and some of the games still mattered, including the Twins' tilt against the Rangers at Target Field. A Rangers win paired with an Astros loss would have meant Texas had a ticket to the playoffs, albeit as a s

    Guardians 9, Twins 2: Joe Ryan's Second-Half Struggles Continue, Guardians Dominate Twins (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Box Score: Starting Pitcher: Joe Ryan: 4 IP, 7 H, 4 ER, 1 BB, 1 K (84 Pitches, 51 Strikes, 60.7%) Home Runs: Trevor Larnach (13) Bottom 3 WPA: Ryan (-0.23), Ryan Jeffers (-0.09), Brooks Lee (-0.09) Win Probability Chart (Via BaseballSavant): The Twins are playing out the string here, in their fifth consecutive series against an AL Central opponent. They already lost three and needed a win Sunday to avoid dropping a fourth—an uninspiring response to a last chance to save your season. The lineup i

    White Sox 10, Twins 1: Bailey Ober Bends, Bullpen Breaks In Blowout (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Box Score: Starting Pitcher: Bailey Ober: 4 ⅓ IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 3 BB, 6 K (84 Pitches, 50 Strikes, 59.5%) Home Runs: Brooks Lee (23) Bottom 3 WPA: Andrew Morris (-0.14), Josh Bell (-0.08), Kody Clemens (-0.08) Win Probability Chart (Via BaseballSavant): Here we are again, with the Twins somehow still playing for their playoff lives despite not being able to sustain any level of consistent success. They turned to Bailey Ober Sunday night with the division-leading White Sox relying on a bullpen game.

    Twins 5, White Sox 1: Zebby Matthews Stops the Bleeding, Twins Avoid Sweep (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Box Score: Starting Pitcher: Zebby Matthews: 8 1/3 IP, 5 H, 1 ER, 0 BB, 5 K (103 Pitches, 67 Strikes, 65%) Home Runs: Luke Keaschall (9) Bottom 3 WPA: Matthews (0.27), Josh Bell (0.16), Trevor Larnach (0.13) Win Probability Chart (Via BaseballSavant): It's been strange watching this Twins team run out of gas, even while looking pretty interesting for next year and beyond. Luke Keaschall, Trevor Larnach, Kody Clemens and Brooks Lee have all looked pretty good, despite the offense going in the tan

    Padres 8, Twins 1: Nando Goes Nanners, Padres Sweep Twins (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Box Score: Starting Pitcher: Bailey Ober: 5 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 3 BB, 3 K (87 Pitches, 54 Strikes, 62%) Home Runs: Brooks Lee (20) Bottom 3 WPA: Jeff Hoffman (-0.32), Josh Bell (-0.09), Victor Caratini (-0.07) Win Probability Chart (Via BaseballSavant): Last week, I described Sunday's loss to the Phillies, in which the team biffed a 5-0 lead to get swept at home, as the nail in the coffin of the season. What I did not take into account was that the American League is truly garbage, and that the Atlan
