In the latest from MLB, Twins’ third baseman Royce Lewis faced exit from the spring training game due to a left hamstring strain, casting doubts on his availability for the season opener. The team is set to conduct imaging tests on Monday.

Lewis, who is only 25 years old, has showcased his immense talent on various occasions, yet this injury adds to his lengthy history of injuries in the league. With just one season where he played over 82 games, fans are optimistic yet concerned about his future performance. Lewis has collected a career batting average of .268 with 33 home runs across 152 games.

In the event that Lewis is sidelined, Jose Miranda is keenly positioned to step up with significant potential, having hit .284 last season.

Lewis has expressed his determination for the new season, prioritizing his health and steady gameplay:

‘I’m not paying attention to the stats because they don’t always reflect performance. My goal is to play as many games as possible,’ he shared in a recent interview, emphasizing that if he remains healthy, success will follow.

As the Twins prepare to take on the St. Louis Cardinals on March 27, fans eagerly await updates regarding Lewis’s condition.
