Royce Lewis is back with the Twins and back to his usual self when healthy, hurting opposing pitching and lifting his teammates with timely hitting and boundless energy. Lewis went 2 for 3 with four runs batted in as the Twins laid it on the slumping Chicago White Sox on Friday, 10-2, in front of 30,801 at Target Field. It was his fourth four-RBI performance in 101 career major league games, an MLB record.

About 1 minute reading time. CHICAGO (AP) — Minnesota Twins center fielder Byron Buxton left Wednesday’s game against the Chicago White Sox in the second inning because of right knee soreness after an unsuccessful attempt to steal second base. Buxton singled leading off the inning, didn’t slide and was thrown out by catcher Kory Lee. Buxton walked off the field slowly and was replaced in the bottom half by Willi Castro, who moved from third base.

Team looks pretty good to me: while the injury to Duran is a real bummer (he's just not replaceable, even if we still have some good depth in the bullpen) and I was hoping we wouldn't have to dip into our starting pitching depth before opening day, otherwise things are looking pretty solid.

Minnesota has been in the market for a specific player type throughout the offseason. Last season, the Twins traded for Michael A. Taylor to provide insurance behind Byron Buxton in center field. Taylor’s role became critical when Buxton was relegated to the designated hitter role. The Twins believe Buxton will return to center field in 2024, but it’s critical to have depth behind him with his injury history.
