Although the MLB season is over halfway completed, it’s unclear what the Twins’ identity is. Holding a 47-49 record and trailing the Seattle Mariners for the third American League Wild Card spot by four games, Minnesota does not seem like it will make the postseason, but building off its current hot streak could quickly change that narrative. With two key Twins players reportedly beginning rehab assignments, maybe that narrative will get changed, after all.
Bailey Ober and Luke Keaschall beginning rehab assignments Friday, according to The Athletic’s Dan Hayes
Ober, who has been sidelined with a right hip impingement since surrendering seven earned runs against the Detroit Tigers on June 28, will make a rehab appearance with the Saints on Friday.
