With 1 month until baseball in Chicago returns, I thought it would be interesting to look at the all time leaders in both offensive and defensive categories for all 30 teams. We continue things today with the Minnesota Twins.
The Twins originated in 1901 as the Washington Senators, one of the charter members of the American League. When Minneapolis was given an expansion team to begin play in 1961, owner Calvin Griffith requested to move the Senators to Minnesota, becoming the Twins, and to have the expansion franchise take over the Senators name in Washington. I’ve seen them play 48 times at 3 different stadiums, including the division-title deciding game 163 in 2008.
