\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

To paraphrase from a famous movie, the one constant through all the years has been baseball.\u00a0 With less than a month until regular season baseball, we continue our look at the all-time leaders in both offensive and defensive categories for all 30 teams. Today, we take a deeper dive into the Minnesota Twins.<\/p>\n

The Twins originated in 1901 as the Washington Senators, one of the charter members of the American League.\u00a0 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.\u00a0 I’ve seen 232 players don the Twins uniform in 69 games at three different stadiums, including the division-title deciding game 163 in 2008 at US Cellular Field.<\/p>\n
