Twins Announce Unfortunate Carlos Correa News Before Athletics Game
Twins Announce Unfortunate Carlos Correa News Before Athletics Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
The Minnesota Twins enter Wednesday night's game against the Athletics with a 33-27 record that ranks second in the American League Central division. Six games back of the Detroit Tigers, Minnesota owns a half-game lead over the Cleveland Guardians who won the division last season.

One of the reasons for Minnesota's success this season has been the health of its best players. In previous years, all three of Carlos Correa, Byron Buxton and Royce Lewis have missed significant time. While Lewis has spent time on the injured list this season, both Correa and Buxton have remained healthier than in previous years.

Appearing in 52 of Minnesota's 60 games this season, Correa owns a .665 OPS that is well down from his .905 mark when he was an All-Star last season. That said, the three-time All-Star is still a needed presence in the Twins' lineup, as his defense at shortstop has been among MLB's best since his debut in 2015.
Initially slotted to play short and bat fourth in Wednesday's contest, Correa was scratched with back tightness. The Twins announced this unfortunate news in a post on X.

"Updated lineup: Brooks Lee will play SS tonight," the team wrote. "Carlos Correa has been scratched with back tightness."
While Lee is an exciting switch-hitting infielder, he has yet to find his footing at the Major League level. In 358 plate appearances since debuting last season, the 24-year-old has just a 70 OPS+ that rate well-below league average.
For now, Minnesota will hope the Correa issue is not too serious, but it will hold him out on Wednesday night.
