The #MNTwins made four picks on Day 1 of the MLB Draft:
Pick 16: SS Marek Houston, 21
Pick 38, P Riley Quick, 21
Pick 54: SS Quentin Young, 18
Pick 88: P James Ellwanger, 21
FYI, the Joe Ryan-Paul Skenes matchup has been moved up to Friday instead of Saturday.
So two dominant pitchers, Nelly, and hopefully no rain delays. #MNTwins
Ownership update
Buxton in the derby
And a buxton trade proposal that's setting my mentions on fire
All in all.... pretty damn good SKOR North #MNTwins Show.

Three trade proposals for Byron Buxton from ESPN today. Don't really love any of them, but reckless nonetheless. #MNTwins

Despite the run of inferior play, the Twins have not been receiving or fielding any extra trade calls lately. They also still back Rocco Baldelli and his staff. I'll have more on tomorrow's SKOR North Twins Show.
The Twins have claimed Connor Gillispie from the Marlins, but he'll report to the Saints. Twins 40-man roster is now full.
Gillispie made 6 starts for the Fish and had an ERA of 8.65 in 26 innings. #MNTwins

Another note here, as I dig for things while facing a 10-run deficit... The Twins haven't hosted a Sunday Night Baseball game since year one of Target Field, August 22, 2010, against the Angels.
Scott Baker shoved 7 shutout innings.
BTW, programming note for the Twins: they've been flexed to Sunday Night Baseball on June 29 in Detroit against the Tigers.
It's the first time 2020 (Sept. 20 at Cubs) they've appeared on Sunday Night Baseball. #MNTwins
A few notes though before the @'s come at me.
1. The c tier was toughest group. Castro probably deserves to be in B, Jeffers, Larnach and Stewart have cases too.
2. Twins need Correa and Lewis (which I think they will) need to graduate into A players if they're going to be contenders.
Unveiled my first Twins player tiers so far in 2025. Explaining what S Tier means to Mackey & Judd might have been tougher than the entire exercise.

Luke Keaschall was taking some grounders at second base, but the groundscrew is now putting the tarp on the field. #MNTwins
Idk how many Lewis Thorpe jerseys there are, but this guy has one, and I’m impressed. #MNTwins
The #MNTwins bring back Simeon Woods-Richardson, who will start tonight in Game 1 against the Rangers.
