Twins News
The Minnesota Twins' struggles continued with a disheartening 2-15 loss to the Chicago White Sox, highlighted by the sudden injury to rookie Kendry Rojas, who was scratched due to elbow soreness. This setback forced Simeon Woods Richardson into an unwanted spot start against White Sox ace Davis Martin, where things quickly unraveled. With a shaky pitching staff already plagued by injuries, the Twins must adapt quickly as they contemplate roster changes, including demoting Travis Adams and potentially trading Royce Lewis to the Red Sox. Despite a respectable 5-2 record over the past week, the team's overall inconsistency and mounting injuries have left fans on edge. With their record now at 27-29, the Twins need to rebound fast or risk falling behind in a competitive AL Central.
