And the Minnesota Twins bench saga continues. As soon as we (ok, maybe just I) think we have it figured out another thing changes. This weekend as the Twins reclaimed Kennys Vargas that seemed to signal that the Twins were ready to take the switch-hitter north with them. That wasn’t the case after all as today Vargas was outrighted, cleared waivers, and was assigned to Triple-A.
While it feels like a strange move, it paid off and the Twins are able to keep Vargas in their organization. They clearly feel there is still some value to his bat and want him in the organization.
