Per Bobby N:
Gabriel Gonzalez isn’t at CHS Field today. He’s expected to join the Twins for their upcoming series Friday in Boston.
Tristan Gray was expected to go on the three-day paternity list at some point this week.
They’ve been more fun to watch than I thought they’d be. Shelton appears to be pulling the right levers and the front office is starting to make some moves to try to make the team better.
Theo Tollefson on the Saints:
St. Paul Saints lineup for an 11:07 start today.
Orlando Arcia and Alex Jackson are on the bench.
#MNTwins catcher Ryan Jeffers did leave last night with a left wrist sprain, which he is getting an MRI on today.
Plus Tristan Gray is expected to go on paternity leave any day.
Would expect some roster moves this week. Jeffers?, bullpen looking tired, Royce, Buck in or out? After a day off Thursday, they have a 16 game stretch.
For what it’s worth they don’t really have any one on the 40 man at AAA that can play centerfield. That said, I hate when they run a 25 man roster.
Buxton update last night from Bobby N:
Byron Buxton is out of the Twins lineup for a fifth day. Derek Shelton, when asked if Buxton was close to returning, said, “very close.”
Buxton ran pregame Sunday and he’s doing outfield drills today.
