Matt Wallner Rejoins Major-League Roster
4 months agoMinnesota Twins outfielder Matt Wallner was officially promoted to the major league roster, according to Aaron Gleeman of the Athletic. Austin Martin (oblique) was placed on the injured list in a corresponding move. Wallner posted a strong .257/.339/.540 slash line across 67 games at Triple-A this season. Since the start of June, the young outfielder held a stellar .342/.417/.726 slash line with 12 long balls, 29 RBI, and three swiped bags. The 26-year-old struggled in the majors in the opening month of the season with a poor .083 AVG. While he may not receive consistent playing time early on, he could become a name to monitor later in the summer as he flashed high potential in the minors this season.
