My big news: I've left The Athletic because they wanted me to stop covering the Twins.
I refused to give up my dream, so I'm betting on myself and returning to my independent roots.
I need your support to make it work. Join me and let's do this together: aarongleeman.com/welcome-to-…

Rangers and Astros both lost — to the out of contention Twins and A's — so someone is making the playoffs without a winning record.

Sounds like there's a good chance Kaelen Culpepper (hamstring) will come off the injured list for the final two games of the Twins' season.

Jacob deGrom is the sixth pitcher to allow 8+ runs vs. the Twins this season.
11 — Garrett Crochet
9 — Zac Gallen
8 — Jacob deGrom
8 — Max Scherzer
8 — David Sandlin
8 — Framber Valdez
Amazingly, five of the six have been All-Stars, including two multi-time Cy Young winners.

Last month, it seemed like the Twins were going to have a very difficult decision to make with Royce Lewis this offseason.
Now? It's possible Lewis' latest extended slump could make that decision for them: aarongleeman.com/royce-lewis…

What a stacked lineup.
Everyone knows Jim Petersen and Marney Gellner are great. Kevin Calabro has long been one of my League Pass favorites. Not too familiar with Jon Sciambi calling basketball, but he's one of the best baseball voices in the business.

Royce Lewis is still only 27, and has two more seasons of team control remaining, but do the Twins still believe he's capable of being an impact hitter again?

Twins still have three assistant general managers — Alex Hassan, Sean Johnson, and Josh Kalk — working under general manager Jeremy Zoll.
I'm told it's unclear if they plan to fill Daniel Adler's role.
Twins and assistant general manager Daniel Adler have mutually agreed to part ways, per a team source.
Adler, who was hired by Derek Falvey in 2017 as director of baseball operations and promoted to assistant GM in 2019, is expected to pursue other opportunities.

Here's me trying — and mostly failing — to make sense of the Twins' season-long handling of Alex Jackson and the weird roster decisions it created for the past 10 months: aarongleeman.com/twins-notes…
For the third time this season, Alex Jackson has cleared waivers — going unclaimed by the other 29 teams — after being designated for assignment by the Twins.

I have a feeling Walker Jenkins won't be making a ton of pinch-hit appearances during his career. But he got one here and delivered a go-ahead RBI single.
Jenkins is now 12-for-26 (.462) with three homers in his last seven games after starting his MLB career 4-for-45 (.089).
