MINNEAPOLIS -- Twins third baseman Miguel Sano isn't expected to return from his left knee injury this weekend, meaning his rough 2018 season has come to an end.
Sano, who suffered the injury on a slide at second base Sept. 4, returned to the lineup on Sept. 18, only to feel discomfort during the game. He underwent further testing in Minnesota, including an MRI exam, but the Twins have been unable to find any structural damage. Sano, though, continues to feel discomfort around his knee on the same leg that he had a titanium rod inserted into his shin in the offseason.
