Facing a rash of injuries to key position players, the Minnesota Twins are expected to call up consensus top-100 prospect Luke Keaschall from Triple-A St. Paul this weekend to provide lineup help, a team source told The Athletic. Already without third baseman Royce Lewis because of a spring training hamstring injury, the Twins placed outfielder Matt Wallner on the injured list Thursday with a left hamstring strain.

MINNEAPOLIS - Attendance at Monday night's game against the New York Mets laid bare just how far the collective morale of Minnesota Twins fans has fallen since the excitement of October 2023 at Target Field. In the seventh inning of yet another frustrating loss, the team declared an announced attendance of 10,240. As always, that figure represents tickets sold rather than actual fans in seats, a much smaller number.

MINNEAPOLIS - There's no getting around it by now: This has morphed into one long, multi-season collapse for the floundering Minnesota Twins. After limping to the finish line last season in a 12-27 (.308) tailspin to fumble away a playoff spot, and eschewing any change to the core roster, the Twins have started this season 5-11 (.313).

MINNEAPOLIS - Less than an hour after Saturday's shutout loss to the Detroit Tigers dropped Minnesota's record to 4-11, a league source tells The Athletic the Twins are demoting struggling third baseman Jose Miranda to Triple-A St. Paul. Miranda hit .167 with 13 strikeouts and zero walks in 12 games, with his struggles standing out even within a lineup full of slumping hitters, but his base-running blunder Saturday may have been the final straw.

I guess I should be used to it, but I was still blown away by how many shitty "jokes" like this I saw about Byron Buxton leaving a baseball team for two days to be home with his family in Georgia for personal reasons. Just grim stuff, absent any humanity. https://t.co/8nF7s7XTEU
@AaronGleeman Is that where Buxton went for “personal” reasons? To tell Jenkins how the Twins do things and to use the DL to rest up for those tough 4 game straight stretches he might be forced to play twice a year!
RT @DanHayesMLB: For the fourth time in five games, the #MNTwins lost a potentially winnable game to fall to 4-9 overall. https://t.co/4rA…
In the 65-year history of the Minnesota Twins, their lineup has had a batting average below .200 after 13 games just twice. This season and last season. https://t.co/Y4Ss45m6JB
#MNTwins lineup through 13 games: This season — .199 AVG, .596 OPS Last season — .186 AVG, .609 OPS
