The Minnesota Twins have sent struggling right fielder Matt Wallner to their Triple-A team due to his disappointing performance, which includes a batting average of just .167 and a league-high 53 strikeouts in 135 plate appearances. Wallner had struck out in eight consecutive at-bats before his demotion. In his place, the Twins have promoted right-handed pitcher Zebby Matthews, who has been impressive in Triple-A, boasting a 2.00 ERA and 18 strikeouts over his last three starts for the St. Paul Saints. The decision comes as the Twins deal with injuries in their pitching staff, including Taj Bradley, who is on the injured list, and Pablo López, who is out for the season due to Tommy John surgery. Additionally, rookie Mick Abel is facing recovery setbacks. The Twins are also managing the workload of rookie Connor Prielipp by pushing back his next start, while Simeon Woods Richardson is under pressure after allowing eight runs in just three innings in a recent game against the Miami Marlins.
