The 2023 Twins were blessed with good health and good fortune and are taking advantage.
The Dodgers lost two of their starters, Urias as mentioned and Buehler to injury. The Yankees lost 3-4 from their rotation right away. Cleveland lost their top two starters to injury and traded their third. Those teams will be back next year. Even Houston has had some rotation issues. deGrom is done, but Texas might bring back Scherzer for the ALCS, assuming they close out Baltimore. Atlanta has a ton of talent on the injury list but somehow always competes.
Injuries are a big story this year, just not for the Twins, thankfully. However, if the Twins take advantage and go all the way, there will be no footnotes. They will have earned it. 🙂
