Less than an hour before game time, Miguel Sano was scratched from the lineup due to his aggravated wrist (from Monday night’s hit-by-pitch). He got x-rays, and they were negative, which of course is positive.

Well, it's not likely. In five years since, he has undergone two major shoulder surgeries – for labrum and rotator cuff tears, then for thoracic outlet syndrome – while aging past 30. But you needn't dream so much to find plenty...5887Tue, 25 Jul 2017 01:43:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/breaking-twins-acquire-garcia-from-braves-r5886/Despite the 4-7 record and 4.30 ERA, Garcia was having a decent season for the Braves. With a ground ball rate over 50%, Garcia has shown the ability to keep the ball in the park this season (especially compared to 2016) but his walk rate is the highest it has been since his 2010 campaign with the...5886Mon, 24 Jul 2017 21:21:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/game-thread-twins-dodgers-724910pm-ct-r5885/1.
