Latest blog entries from Minnesota teams across every league
Hello folks and happy Wednesday! The Mariners bats came alive yesterday as the team feasted on the Twins’ bullpen to the tune of a 7-1 victory. In particular, it was a great game from second baseman Cole Young, who is beginning to round into form offensively with a .278/.352/.407 slash line heading into today’s action. […]
A dark cloud has been hovering over this Minnesota Wild team for a while now. They have suffered nine straight first-round exits. The last time they were able to win a playoff round was back in 2015, and then they promptly got swept by the Chicago Blackhawks as the reward for it. Whether it was batt...
Kirill Kaprizov registered a goal and two assists to lead the Minnesota Wild to a 4-2 victory over the Dallas Stars in Game 5 at American Airlines Center. Kaprizov had a hand in goals by Mats Zuccarello and Matt Boldy, and found the empty net to clinch it with two minutes remaining in regulation. Jesper Wallstadt made 20 saves, and Michael McCarron had the game-winning goal for the Wild, who took a 3-2 lead in the series. David Pastrnak scored on a partial breakway at 9:14 of o...
Bruins did, Wild did.
The Minnesota Wild can't pop the champagne yet. Historically, road teams that win Game 5 to go up 3-2 win 77.4% of playoff series, but the door is open for the Dallas Stars to make a comeback if the Wild aren't careful. However, the Wild we saw in Tuesday night's 4-2 win to seize control of th...
Josh Naylor, Julio Rodríguez and Cole Young each collected three hits in the Mariners 7-1 win over the Twins Tuesday. The Mariners’ lineup picked up 12 hits in total, including five for extra bases, in what wound up being a comfortable win. But the game wasn’t so comfortable early. Joe Ryan started for the Twins […]
In a pitching duel between Joe Ryan and Logan Gilbert it was the Twins who were the first to break through. In the 5th, Byron Buxton hit a misplaced Gilbert fastball out of the park to left for his 7th home run of the year. It was a good result, but felt somewhat lacking as, […]
Mariners 7, Twins 1 Good: Josh Naylor, .25 WPA Bad: Cal Raleigh, -.16 WPA Game thread comment of the day
The Mariners will try to extend their win streak to four games (on fields without standing water). The Mariners send out their “we’re facing a righty” lineup against Joe Ryan, who’s the Twins best starting pitcher this year with a 3.22 FIP. The Mariners will likely see a heavy dose of fastballs and sinkers, with […]
First Pitch: 6:40 PM CDT TV: Twins.TV Radio: TIBN, WCCO 830, The Wolf 102.9 FM, Audacy App, LosTwins.com Know thine enemy: Lookout Landing The Twins, who are hoping that their 11-run outburst yesterday is a sign of things to come, are sending out Joe Ryan against Seattle’s Logan Gilbert. Today’s Lineups MARINERS TWINS J.P. Crawford […]
Now that the draft is over, the Minnesota Vikings turn their attention to filling their general manager position. Interim general manager Rob Brzezinski remains an option if he wants the job, but an announcement today in Philadelphia may signal that the Vikings are going in another direction to fill their general manager position. The Philadelphia […]
Let’s start with the important part of this story: Luis Arraez is having a great season right now. Do all the people who never doubted the front office’s commitment to signing a singles hitter who hadn’t played second base in some time to play second base want to serve crow to those of us who […]
The Minnesota Wild are in the middle of a knockdown, drag-out playoff series with the rival Dallas Stars. Many players on the team deserve recognition for their contributions to the 2-2 series deadlock. Matt Boldy is emerging as a superstar, and Brock Faber has made significant strides. Still, perha...
ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that San Francisco 49ers free agent wide receiver Jauan Jennings is set to visit the Minnesota Vikings on Monday and Wednesday. This comes after the Miami Dolphins reportedly had interest in Jennings’ services. The Vikings would be a great fit for Jennings. Minnesota just exercised Jordan Addison’s fifth-year option. Addison had […]
Of the nine players that the Minnesota Vikings selected in last week’s NFL Draft, none of them play the wide receiver position, a spot that many expected them to address at some point during the selection meeting. Now, it appears that they may be looking in a different direction to fill out the depth chart […]
About the only good thing to come from last night’s 11-4 drubbing at the hands of the Minnesota Twins was the big-league debut of hard-throwing Alex Hoppe. You know we love a debut around here, and it was extra special that it was such a quiet stinker of a game that Brad Adam could easily […]
The draft is over and most of the grades are in and they are kind of middle of the road. Most are at a C which could be worse if everyone else gets As and Bs. But who really cares if other folks do not say nice things about the team? Are you truly a […]
When playoff time rolls around and the regular season moves farther back into the rearview, the things we know about players and teams become true only insofar as they happen now. Whether a player thrives or fails in a playoff season becomes a key part of the narrative that shapes their value and st...
As the Minnesota Timberwolves look to close out their playoff series against the Denver Nuggets, they are no doubt concerned about star Anthony Edwards' health.
The Twins started off the week by extending the Mets’ losing streak to 12 games, but that’s where the good news ended, as they started their own streak, losing five straight games before righting the ship against Seattle last night. They are only three games below .500 and still sit third in the Central division, […]

Happy Tuesday! A rough outing from starter Luis Castillo led to seven earned runs and an eventual 4-11 loss to the Minnesota Twins yesterday. Cal Raleigh’s seventh home run and RHP Alex Hoppe’s MLB debut were the lone bright spots in the otherwise difficult game. Logan Gilbert takes the mound today against Twins ace Joe […]
The Minnesota Vikings selected defensive tackle Caleb Banks 18th overall in the 2025 NFL Draft — and the debate hasn’t stopped since. On the latest episode of The Real Forno Show, Vikings analyst Tyler Forness and producer Dave Stefano of Vikings First & SKOL, deliver a deep-dive breakdown of Caleb Banks, dismantling the “reach” narrative […]
Meet the Mets The Mets officially DFA’ed Tommy Pham and signed Austin Slater to a major league deal. Slater will be active for tonight’s game against the Nationals. The club also claimed Eric Wagaman off waivers from the Twins. Following losing their second game on Sunday, Howie Rose had an ominous warning for Carlos Mendoza […]
