Man, have the injuries piled up

I voted Donaldson...just before the deadline.

Because that's how this team seems to roll this season.

Largest injury may be to the airline industry. No more daily flight purchases from Rochester.....

I'll choose T.C. Bear!

Admit it. Everyone here clicked into this thread expecting to see Byron Buxton listed 12 times. 

Professor Plum hit by the Lead Pipe in the Billiard Room.

I was actually looking for an "All of them" option.  Kinda disappointed, actually!

Correct answer is Joe Mauer.

I'll admit it. I selected Byron Buxton. 

I can't get myself to participate in this poll. I don't want to be responsible for any bad juju.

This is a very optimistic poll as neither Berrios nor Rogers are listed as options.

Who: Nelson Cruz

How: He ruptures his achilles tendon on a routine ground ball to short in the Angels series.

Me, from patting myself on the back for calling the Twins 66-0 run to end the year and overtaking the White Sox in the standings with a week to go in the regular season.

With that level of confidence, I better call my bookie!

Neither of them have a record of injuries

Not the point.  Injuries to them would hurt the most and would most fulfill the narrative of the season thus far.

I think it's actually pretty optimistic to expect us to go injury-free until Buxton's back on the field.

I feel like Sano's due for an injury. I envision him starting to get hot in the middle of August and taking a line drive in the nose the day after Twins Daily posts a "Miguel Sano is back on top" article. (Or possibly a "Maybe now we can move Miguel Sano during the offseason" article)
