Twins center fielder Byron Buxton has struggled with injuries since his debut in 2015, playing over 100 games in only three seasons. Currently, he has played 93 games this year but is dealing with a hip injury that may require offseason surgery, according to general manager Jeremy Zoll. After a strong first half, Buxton has declined significantly post-injury, hitting .172 with no home runs in his last 64 plate appearances. Meanwhile, right-hander Joe Ryan is progressing toward a return from a glute strain, potentially bolstering the team as they face playoff challenges.
