David Ortiz Ortiz is straight up incredible. Now 40 years old, Ortiz hit his tenth home run of the 2016 season in the third inning. But he was just getting started. He then tripled (let's repeat that: DAVID ORTIZ...

Denard Span Span was gathering quite a bit of preseason buzz as a strong rebound candidate in 2016, and he made those writers feel smart, at least for a day, with a massive Opening Day performance. Span went 2-for-4...

Let it (Miguel) Sano? Sano is one of the more intriguing options heading into the 2016 season. He is the highest-rated Twin option out in the fantasy landscape, and with good reason. In an 80 game debut for the...

Miguel Sano Sano continues to impress, going 1-for-2 with two runs, a home run and two RBI on Sunday. Sano reached via two walks in addition to his homer, and he's now slashing .287/.398/.591. Sano's 162-game projections are pretty absurd...

Ervin Santana The Twins' big off-season free agent acquisition made his 2015 season debut on Sunday after serving his 80-game suspension for PEDs. Santana looked much the ace that the Twins - and really patient fantasy owners - were hoping...
