Twinkie Town Talk: The 17 innings edition

Good Morning everyone, if you stayed up for the whole game last night you deserve a medal.

In case you missed it: We were SUPER busy

• He also discussed the rumors around Madison Bumgarner with the Giants SB Nation baseball site.
• Our favorite sandwich man put out an article on who the Twins candidates for Most Improved Player are.
• There were a few roster moves made. One involving Buxton and the other involving Adrianza.
• And of course, the TWINS WON!

Elsewhere in Twins Territory:
