Twins News

The Minnesota Twins' hopes for a solid second half took a hit today as left-hander Anthony Banda underwent season-ending surgery on his lat, leaving the roster a bit thinner as they push for consistency. Despite this setback, the Twins showcased some promise with Bailey Ober's sharp return from the IL, giving fans something to cheer about. Meanwhile, Ryan Jeffers is on the verge of rejoining the squad, prompting a tough roster decision that could shake things up. Though the Twins missed a chance for a sweep against the Guardians yesterday, their 5-2 record over the past week, highlighted by strong run support, suggests they're still in the fight. At 46-47, the team is just three games out of the division race, but they'll need to rely on their depth and resiliency to capitalize on their current momentum.
