Happy first day of Spring Training to all those who celebrate. Baseball season is finally here.
On Thursday, February 12, Minnesota Twins pitchers and catchers arrived in Fort Myers, Florida, marking the first day of Spring Training for the 2026 season. It's a clean slate. We can block out the season projections. Roster worries can be put on ice as Twins players enjoy the sunny Floridian weather for the first time.
We're just happy that baseball has hit its first step of the new year.

Though there will be some long-tossing, short bullpen sessions, and players re-acclimating to a baseball schedule, we won't see a game broadcast until Feb.
