Twins News

The Minnesota Twins continue to shuffle their roster as they navigate the season's final stretch, with Woo-Suk Go opting to leave for the KBO's LG Twins after a less-than-stellar tenure here. This comes as the organization prepares to select infielder Ben Ross and recall righty Garrett Acton in a bid to shake things up. Meanwhile, the offense showed signs of life with an impressive 11-1 drubbing of the Tigers, bolstered by Kody Clemens and Ryan Jeffers, while rookie Walker Jenkins celebrated his first big league home run. Despite these bright spots, the Twins' recent call-up decisions seem underwhelming, especially as they look to solidify their rotation for next year with Zebby Matthews making his case. At 65-72, the urgency is palpable as they aim to turn the tide against the division rival Tigers.
