Taylor Motter Called Up By Twins To Shore Up Infield Depth
6 years agoMinnesota Twins utility man Taylor Motter has been recalled by the Twins on Friday. The move was announced in conjunction with Joe Mauer's reinstatement from the disabled list. There was some speculation that the Twins might call up highly-touted prospect Nick Gordon, but they went with Motter instead. After the demotions of Miguel Sano and Jake Cave, the Twins were severely lacking in infield depth. So, it makes sense for them to bring up Motter, who can play multiple infield positions. That said, he is a career .198 hitter and didn't do much in Triple-A this season. Fantasy players should leave Motter on the waiver until he shows something with the bat.
