Twins News
Byron Buxton's absence is stinging the Twins as they continue to struggle offensively, evident in their dismal 1-for-12 performance with runners in scoring position during last night's 5-2 loss to the Yankees. With Buxton sidelined for a fourth consecutive game due to a right hip injury, the pressure mounts on the rest of the lineup, which has shown signs of life recently, averaging 5.3 runs per game over the past week. Meanwhile, Ryan Jeffers is making strides toward a return from his own injury and had a solid outing in his rehab assignment, going 2-for-4. As the Twins sit at 42-46, the clock is ticking. They need to get healthy and find a way to turn a lukewarm 4-3 stretch into something hotter as they gear up for a rematch against New York.
