MINNEAPOLIS — It will be months until the grass of Target Field greens up, but things are about to heat up for fans of the Minnesota Twins.
On Wednesday the team announced the schedule for its 2024 Winter Caravan. From Jan. 23-30, three teams – each featuring two current Twins players, an alumnus and a club broadcaster – will road trip to communities across the Upper Midwest. They will take part in question-and-answer sessions, sign autographs and do meet-and-greets with the Twins' loyal fan base.
“With a new year upon us, there is no better – or more meaningful – way to start what we believe will be a special 2024 season of Twins Baseball than by visiting our fans in their own home communities,” said Twins President and CEO Dave St. Peter. “The Twins Winter Caravan is a unique and beloved tradition for our players, staff, alumni and fans alike."
Here are the scheduled stops for the 2024 Winter Caravan:
Leg One: Twins Hall of Famer and longtime radio voice Dan Gladden, utility infielder and outfielder Willi Castro, reliever Caleb Thielbar and Twins mascot T.C.
