The âAmerican League-leadingâ Minnesota Twins are 9-7 after two straight series wins over the Tigers and the Blue Jays. Itâs been certainly impressive to see the team fight back after three straight series losses, and doing so without needing the heroics of Byron Buxton or Luke Keaschall. Instead, infielder Tristan Gray has been a solid contributor. After hitting his first career grand slam against the Rays last week, he had another nice game yesterday against the Blue Jays, with a three-run homer. However, it canât be all sunshine and daisies, as Royce Lewis has now hit the 10-day IL with a left knee sprain. The Red Sox and the Reds are coming to Target Field this week, and the Twins will hope to continue the good vibes at home.
