3 Twins make team of the week

[gunnarthor]

Duffey, Sano and Walker made mlb.com's minor league team of the week:

"When Miguel Sano was hitting just .159 and slugging .381 in April, no one in the Twins organization was overly concerned. They knew the rust from having missed the 2014 season because of Tommy John surgery would be considerable, and fully expected him to return to the power-hitting corner infielder he was before the injury.

It looks like they were right. Sano hit .303/.374/.556 in May and has put up an impressive .329/.422/.671 line in June. That was augmented by a week that saw him tie for the Minor League lead in total bases despite only playing four games. He's one of three players from the Twins organization making the Prospect Team of the Week for June 22-28."

It's amazing that Walker is putting up the productive numbers that he is, and the Lookouts have had a lot of weekly award winners, and Walker hasn't won one yet.

Um....I think he got it this week along with Sano. Has Kepler gotten any such recognition?

At great personal risk...

 

Could it be because these awards are (IIRC) voted on by the managers, and they have a bias against him?
