The Minnesota Twins are a professional baseball franchise competing in Major League Baseball in the American League's Central division.

After moving to Minnesota ahead of the 1961 season, the team was renamed to the Minnesota Twins. In 2009, James Pohlad inherited ownership of the Twins from his father who purchased the team in 1984.
