If there is one signing that has transformed the Minnesota Twins into the Bomba Squad, it was the decision to bring in Nelson Cruz. The initial decision to bring in the now 39-year old slugger was met with some resistance by Twins fans, but the one-year, $14 million pact is almost a bargain as the Twins move closer to winning the American League Central.
On Sunday afternoon, Cruz hit another important milestone for the Twins as he hit the 400th home run of his career as the Twins jumped out to an early lead over the Kansas City Royals.
