Twins Reach All-Star Break Right in Middle Standings

The Twins’ offense has led the American League in runs scored, but a weak bullpen and injuries leave their trade deadline plans unsettled.

  • On Sunday, July 12, 2026, the Minnesota Twins entered the All-Star break with a 48-49 record after defeating the Los Angeles Angels 4-2 at Target Field in Minneapolis.
  • The Twins have won 17 of their last 27 games and lead the American League with 471 runs scored, reversing early-season struggles to position themselves as contenders.
  • Starting pitcher Taj Bradley threw seven innings of two-run ball, while catcher Ryan Jeffers drove in two runs with a double and Trevor Larnach added a solo homer Sunday.
  • Executive chairman Tom Pohlad stated the team's new barometer is to "win a championship," signaling the front office may act as buyers before the August 1 trade deadline.
  • Three games behind division leaders, the Twins face a seven-game road trip against the Chicago Cubs and Cleveland Guardians that will shape their Wild Card prospects.
