The Beginning
The Washington Senators were an original member of the American League in 1901, and remained in Washington for 60 years. During their time in Washington, the Senators managed to win only three pennants and only one World Series title.

Twin Cities Bound
In 1961, the Senators began play in Minnesota as the Twins. The team has fared better in Minnesota, having won eight division titles, three in a row after being threatened with contraction, and two World Series titles.

Best Trade in Team History
In 1999, the Twins acquired Johann Santana from the Florida Marlins in exchange for Jared Camp. Santana has been excellent, and no one knows who Jared Camp is.

Worst Trade in Team History
In 1934, the Senators sent Joe Cronin to the Boston Red Sox in exchange for Lyn Lary and $225,000 cash. Cronin enjoyed several good years with the Red Sox, while Lary amounted to little.
