Twins News
The Minnesota Twins are feeling the sting of another injury, with catcher Ryan Jeffers sidelined, leaving a significant gap in the lineup. As they attempt to piece things together, Andrew Morris’s performance has been a bright spot, potentially stabilizing the revolving door of closers that has plagued the team thus far, which has seen nine different pitchers earn saves this season. Meanwhile, the Twins could finally see some return on their Jorge Polanco trade, as Gabriel Gonzalez is expected to make his MLB debut, offering a glimmer of hope in an otherwise lukewarm stretch with a 3-4 record over the last week. As they prepare for another meeting with the Houston Astros, who currently sit below them in the standings, the Twins need to capitalize on every opportunity to regain momentum.
