Why Aren’t the Minnesota Twins Giving DaShawn Keirsey Jr. a Chance?

Kepler not looking 100% tonight. He needs to go on the IL. They can figure out a way to get Keirsey on the 40. Four and a half weeks left and we cannot waste the roster spot if he’s injured.

Keirsey is a true CFer, Cave wasn't much good in CF. Bats might be similar. 

I am not sure how to quantify whether a player is a true centerfielder. Cave was primarily a centerfielder in the minors. In his 5 seasons as a Twin he had an OOA of  +3 as a CF.

I consider a true a true CFer is a OFer that can cover CF & make the plays. Any MiLB player that played some CF or SS don't tell me anything much about what a player can do. Thank you for giving me one more reason for not trusting OOA.
