2021 Minnesota Twins season
Major League Baseball team season
The 2021 Minnesota Twins season was the 61st season for the Minnesota Twins franchise in the Twin Cities of Minnesota , their 12th season at Target Field and the 121st overall in the American League . The Twins were favored to win the American League Central for the third straight season, and hopes were high that they would break their American sports-leading 18 straight postseason losses. However, due to injuries to players such as superstar center fielder Byron Buxton , the Twins had a poor season, falling from first place in the AL Central the previous two seasons to last in 2021 with a 73–89 record and missing the postseason for the first time since 2018.
