The Twins had a 3-3 week (stop me if you’ve heard this before), taking a 2-1 series against the Marlins, which included an incredible Bailey Ober “Maddux”, and then dropping two games to the Brewers during “Rivalry Weekend” in the MLB. We might have seen the last of Matt Wallner in a Twins uniform after he was sent down to Triple-A, and Simeon Woods-Richardson’s scheduled start today is getting skipped in favor of a bullpen game, so things are slowly changing in the Twins dugout. With Byron Buxton’s absence in the last few games due to an injury, Austin Martin has batted leadoff for the last four games with mixed results. A three-game series against the equally hapless Houston Astros and a weekend series in Fenway await the Twins this week.
